Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 259 The Vicious Vision

After taking a sip of tea, Guo Jia continued, "The reason why Jiangdong didn't choose to form an alliance with Yuan Shao is very simple. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Jiangdong's situation at that time was like three tigers. If the two tigers united to kill the third tiger first, Then these two tigers will grow stronger, and there will be a decisive battle between the two in the future!"

"People are greedy, and Sun Ce is no exception. He must not want to share half of the fruits of victory with Yuan Shao, so he chose the very humble Liu Bei as his ally."

"Sun Ce's thinking is very perfect. The goal of both sides is Cao Cao's territory, and Liu Bei's power is so weak, even if he wins some of Cao Cao's territory, it will basically not be a threat to Jiangdong."

"Of course, there is a very important point hidden in it, that is Liu Bei's identity. Although Cao Cao holds the emperor in his hands and has the emperor's edict for everything, compared with Liu Bei, the only difference is the identity."

"Liu Bei is the emperor's uncle of today's emperor. The Han Dynasty is orthodox. Besides, he is famous for his benevolence and righteousness, and his actions are orthodox. Although he is the confidant of many people, if you want to kill Liu Bei, you still need a legitimate reason that can convince everyone in the world."

"Among all the princes in the world today, only Cao Cao has this ability, and he also hopes to kill Liu Bei, so Sun Ce also wants to use the meaning of the alliance to give Cao Cao the opportunity to kill Liu Bei."

"It's just a pity that Liu Bei also thought of these reasons. He has been experiencing the life of fleeing, and the wood will be enlightened, let alone a living person!"

"He was unwilling to be Cao Cao and Sun Ce's puppet, and tried every means to get rid of this fate. Under the tense situation, he really made a wonderful move!"

"What Feng Xiao means is that after Liu Bei left Yuan Shao to attack Xuchang City, he arbitrarily changed the plan he had made with Jiang Dong?"

"It's also possible that before leaving Yuan Shao, it's also possible that the two didn't make any plans at all. We don't know about these. In the future, we can see some clues based on Jiang Dong's attitude towards Liu Bei. Please listen to the analysis below, my lord."

"Why do you say that Liu Bei made a wonderful move? Because this move was a move that all the princes in the world did not think of. Everyone thought that Liu Bei was killed by Cao Cao, and hated Cao Cao deeply in their hearts. There are less than [-] troops in the world, so how could you choose to attack Xuchang City, which Cao Cao has strictly guarded?"

"I think that Liu Bei attacked Xuchang City because of these three points. First of all, Liu Bei hated Cao Cao to the bone. The thing that can hit Cao Cao on the Guandu battlefield the most is the invasion of the base camp."

"Secondly, Liu Bei and Cao Cao have cooperated and fought several battles with each other. He can basically guess some of Cao Cao's military tactics. He secretly sent people into the city to investigate, and judged the strength of the troops in the city according to the actual situation. Insufficient, able to succeed!"

"Finally, I think that Liu Bei has a bit of jealousy towards Cao Cao. Cao Cao and him made their fortunes almost at the same time. The two fought for many years. As a result, Cao Cao became more and more powerful, but he was still surviving. Anyone would feel a little bit dissatisfied. balance."

After hearing this, Han Yang chuckled, took a few sips from the tea bowl, and waited for Guo Jia's next words.

"The funniest thing is that Liu Bei captured Xuchang City. This incident really surprised all the princes! They all admired Cao Cao's treachery, and also admired Liu Bei's courage!"

"According to the shadow report from Yangzhou City, Zhou Yu had assembled an army of 20 troops by the river, but nothing happened. It can be seen that the plan discussed by Jiang Dong and Liu Bei was to let Liu Bei go south to attack Cao Cao's territory, causing In chaos, Jiang Dong will go straight north with his army and reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

"But they didn't expect that Liu Bei would do such an unwise thing. More precisely, if Liu Bei hadn't sent an envoy to Jiangdong, Sun Ce would have been kept in the dark."

"It's a pity that Liu Bei succeeded with Yuan Shao, and lost with Yuan Shao! Before he left, Yuan Shao generously gave him five thousand soldiers and horses, so that he had the manpower to attack Xuchang City."

"However, while capturing Xuchang City, Yuan Shao's 70 troops were also completely defeated by Cao Cao. Liu Bei was caught off guard by such a dramatic coincidence."

"In his heart, taking Xuchang City was his first step in expanding the territory, but he ended up in such a situation. He didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, and he was at a loss for a while!"

"Fortunately, Liu Bei, who has been fighting for so many years, has some basic grasp of the situation. He refocused his targets on Jingzhou and Yangzhou. I don't know if he is going to divide his troops. He sent two groups of envoys to Jiangdong and Xiliang respectively. , and seek the help of my lord and Sun Ce."

Han Yang nodded again and again after listening, "Feng Xiao's analysis made me suddenly feel enlightened, but there is still one thing I don't understand in my heart. How does this have anything to do with my hope of getting Zhao Yun?"

Guo Jia chuckled, took a few sips from the tea bowl, and said slowly, "If you say there is a connection, it's not that big of a connection. If you say there is no connection, there is still a little bit."

"Feng Xiao, I'm almost taken aback by what you're saying, why can't I understand?"

"Actually, my lord doesn't need to go any further. Fate will come naturally when the time comes. Zhao Yun came to ask for help today. My lord must have sold him a great kindness."

What happened just now was explained by Guo Jia, and Han Yang scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I didn't say what the lord did was wrong, but it's hard to say that the lord did the right thing. He will definitely repay Zhao Yun for his kindness to a hero, but he just doesn't know how to repay it."

"In the future, Liu Bei's ambition will be revealed slowly. I hope this General Zhao can see the essence clearly and find another master."

"Looking at the meaning of Fengxiao's words, could it be that..."

"That's right, my lord, Liu Bei at the time of the Eighteenth Route Princes' Meeting is completely different from Liu Bei now. Although Liu Bei is still insisting on benevolence and righteousness, there are only some small benevolence and righteousness left. His The heart of profit is getting more and more serious, and I have completely lost the dream of helping the Han family, and I have become an overlord who only thinks about himself!"

"If Liu Bei suffers a big defeat in the future, if the lord helps me, maybe he will take the initiative to offer Zhao Yun in exchange. At that time, everything will be decided by the lord."

"Hahahaha", Han Yang was very happy after hearing this, "Feng Xiao, although I don't know if what you said will come true, but I still have a thought in my heart, so I will take it as a good word from you."

Guo Jia bent down and cupped his hands, and continued: "My lord, I hope that today's conversation will not be heard by any general, so as not to cause chaos in the army."
