Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

"But right now, my master employs people on their merits, and treats me with generosity and accommodating. I guess that although Sun Jian is strong, he may not have the wisdom of my master's employing people!"

"Now that the Ming Lord is present, why is Feng Xiao still lamenting?"

When Cao Cao heard Xi Zhong's words, he knelt down and bowed with a plop, saying:

"When I was in Yanzhou before, I often heard that Zhicai Wenruo praised the talent of filial piety, but now hearing the words of filial piety, it is even more enlightening!"

"Sir, since you have this talent, how can you hide in this deep mountain, so I come here to worship, please come out of the mountain, and follow me to help the Han family and calm the world!"

"In this way, on the one hand, it will not be in vain for Mr. to be a talented person, and on the other hand, he will be able to get help from Mr., and he will be able to level up with the people who have a heart in this world!"

As he spoke, he raised his head and said earnestly:

"Exercise the heart of fist and fist, the bright moon can be seen, I don't know if sir is willing to come out of the mountain to help me?"

Guo Jia saw 860 Cao Cao's behavior, and immediately smiled wryly:

"Duke Cao is so sincere in his invitation, how can Jia pretend to ignore Duke Cao's heart?"

Speaking of this, he quickly saluted Cao Cao and said:

"Guo Jia, meet the lord!"

"Feng Xiao is really willing to vote for me?"

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, he hurriedly got up and grabbed Guo Jia's hands and said:

"If you can get help from filial piety in this life, it's really a long drought and rain, three lives are lucky!"

"Since Fengxiao is willing to serve under my command, I would like to accept Fengxiao as a military commander to sacrifice wine, and I hope Fengxiao will not despise him!"

"Military division sacrificial wine?"

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia quickly looked at Xi Zhong and said:

"You are just a fledgling, how can you take such a big responsibility!"

But when Xi Zhong saw this, he laughed and said:

"You don't need to be too modest in your filial piety. This matter was already discussed when my lord and I came here!"

"Now the lord's subordinates are gradually growing, and talents are scarce. I will be temporarily in charge of Dongjun's meritorious service. If you come, you will be able to sacrifice wine for this military commander!"

"Yes!"

Cao Cao hurriedly laughed and said:

"I think Feng Xiao, Zhi Cai, and Wen Ruo are all good friends, so there is no need to be so self-effacing now!"

"Anyway, under my command, there are not so many rules!"

"Never mind!"

Seeing Cao Cao and Xi Zhong being so kind, Guo Jia laughed and said:

"Left and right, I'm not that rigid. Since the lord is willing to take over, then Jia will take over!"

"However, even though Jia is serving the lord now, I don't know what the lord wants to do next?"

"Let Zhicai tell you this!"

Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhong when he heard the words.

Hearing this, Xi Zhong laughed, and immediately said leisurely:

"To tell you the truth, the main force of our army is still fighting in Dongjun County. Half a month ago, Liu Dai went out to hunt for bandits and was killed by the Yellow Turban bandits, leaving Yanzhou without a master."

"During the time I've been waiting, there are already two people, Bao Xin and Zhang Miao, who want to welcome the lord as the lord of Yanzhou."

"That's why I intend to wait until I go back and continue hunting for thieves, all in Yanzhou!"

"Oh? All according to Yanzhou?"

Guo Jia heard this, smiled slightly and said:

"Then Xi Gong, have you ever thought about what will happen after our army occupies Yanzhou?"

Hearing this, Xi Zhong frowned and said:

"This matter is also my concern. Originally, Yuzhou was being invaded by Yuan Shu. I was thinking that our army should guard against Yuan Shu's northward advance. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu was defeated by Bai Liming in one fell swoop!"

"Then Yuan Shu lost so quickly that I didn't know what to do for a while!"

"If our army continues to go south to Yuzhou, it will clash with Sun Jian."

"If you go west, there will be no one around Luoyang!"

"If you go east, you will attack Xuzhou!"

"As for the northward advance, our army can't tear ourselves apart with Yuan Shao!"

As he spoke, he looked at Guo Jia and said:

"Does Fengxiao have any good suggestions?"

Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly said:

"That's right, now that Sun Jian has achieved great power and has just defeated Yuan Shu, according to Feng Xiao's opinion, what should our army do?"

Guo Jia listened to what the two said, shook his head and said with a smile:

"My lord, the actor, the two of you want to miss something!"

"If our army can occupy Yanzhou now, then in the next step, we should not consider dealing with the enemy anywhere!"

"And consider the issue of our army's foundation land!"

"The place of foundation?"

The two of them were shocked when they heard Guo Jia's words.

Cao Cao hurriedly frowned and said:

"What is Fengxiao saying? Could it be that our army can't be regarded as a foundation after all of Yanzhou is occupied?"

"Exactly!"

Guo Jia nodded and said:

"The land of Yanzhou, to put it mildly, is a flat and rich land!"

"To put it bluntly, it extends in all directions, and there is no danger to defend!"

"However, our army is surrounded by powerful enemies. If we go south, we will confront Sun Jian."

"If you go east, even if you can defeat Tao Qian, you will be flanked by Yuan Shao and Sun Jian in the future!"

"And to the west are the ruins of Luoyang, which are useless!"

"So our army can't just think about the present, but also think about the future!"

"Feng Xiao, are you saying that our army may still face Benchu?"

Cao Cao frowned when he heard Guo Jia's words;

"Could it be that Ben Chu will join forces with Sun Jian?"

Xi Zhong was also surprised when he heard it:

"Why did Feng Xiao make such a judgment?"

Guo Jia heard this, shook his head and said:

"Don't be alarmed, I don't mean that Yuan Shao and Sun Jian will join forces."

"But now Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are fighting in the land of Hebei, and sooner or later they will share their burdens!"

"And now that Sun Jian has seized Yuzhou and Yangzhou, he will go north sooner or later!"

"Therefore, even if our army invades Xuzhou and Qingzhou from the east, it will be regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by these two at that time!"

"Even if they don't join forces, once one family attacks, the other family will definitely not sit idly by!"

"Therefore, the only end for our army at that time is to be divided up by these two families!"

"I see!"

When Cao Cao heard this, his back immediately turned cold.

Fortunately, he still thought that since Yuzhou was not treating Sun Jian well, he simply marched into Xuzhou!

Unexpectedly, Xuzhou has now become a place of traps!

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked Guo Jia:

"Then according to Feng Xiao's opinion, what should our army do next?"

Xi Zhong also hurriedly said:

"Feng Xiao, tell me where our army is based!"

Guo Jia heard this, shook his head and smiled:

"Reporting to my lord, our army's next step is not to simply go south or west, but to prepare with both hands!"

"In terms of foundation, Sun Jian and Yuan Shao are powerful right now, but they will be beyond their reach. Therefore, our army still has time to develop in this gap!"

"In my opinion, our army should take advantage of Yuan Shu's death and Liu Biao's unresponsiveness, advance to Yingchuan, and then take the opportunity to capture Nanyang!"

"On the other hand, our army will enter Luoyang, relocate the people of Yanzhou, and slowly develop the land of Luoyang."

"If our army can take down Nanyang and Yingchuan, it will be no less important to our army than Xuzhou!"

"As for the development of Luoyang, it is for the plot of Hanoi, Hedong, Bingzhou and Chang'an!"

"Now Dong Zhuo is a dead bone in the grave, I don't think he can hold on for long."

"So our army can use Luoyang as a springboard and wait to attack Chang'an at any time!"

"Whether our army is taking Bingzhou or Chang'an, relying on natural dangers such as Hulao Pass, Sishui Pass, and Huguan Pass, we can all line up with Yingchuan and become our army's retreat!"

"In this way, if the Central Plains can be plotted, our army will march into the Central Plains again. If the Central Plains cannot be plotted, our army can still plot Liangzhou and go south to Yizhou!"

"This is the lifeline of our army!"

"Feng Xiao's words are really kind!"

When Cao Cao heard Guo Jia's words, his eyes lit up with excitement!

Guo Jia's strategy is not unreasonable!

If it can be carried out according to Guo Jia's plan, then Yanzhou is not necessary!

If Sun Jian and Yuan Shao are going to fight, they can stick to the front line of Luoyang and Yingchuan, watch from the sidelines, and wait for the opportunity to attack slowly!

Although the central plains with a large population were abandoned, they got an initiative!

This is obviously more real than trying to seize Xuzhou with no brains!

When Xi Zhong at the side heard this, he couldn't help but stroked his beard and said with a smile:

"Fengxiao is really far-sighted. I think Fengxiao's strategy is really a mature and prudent strategy!"

But facing the praise of the two, Guo Jia smiled bitterly and said:

"There is no other way to do this. Now that Sun Jian has suddenly emerged, if my lord doesn't plan a retreat in advance, it will be very difficult for our army in the future!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao smiled and said:

"Today I have to receive advice from Xiao Xiao, I am truly enlightened!"

"Since our army's marching direction is first-hand preparation, what about our army's second-hand preparation?"

After hearing this, Xi Zhong looked at Guo Jia and said with a smile:

"Presumably Feng Xiao's second strategy should be to restrict Sun Jian!"

"Otherwise, Feng Xiao wouldn't go out of his way to get to know Bai Liming!"

"Exactly!"

Guo Jia heard this and said with a smile:

"In my opinion, Sun Jian's army is far more threatening to our army than Yuan Shao and the surrounding princes!"

"But now Sun Jian regards Bailiming as his mastermind, and he must discuss everything with him!"

"So if our army wants to restrict Sun Jian, we must start with Bai Liming's characteristics!"
