Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

When everyone heard this, they all bowed to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia smiled faintly and did not comment on the matter.

Things that have passed cannot arouse any interest at all.

The only thing that interested him was what would happen next.

After the banquet, all the generals went to organize their troops.

Liu Yu came to Guo Jia and said with concern: "Fengxiao, now the overall situation has been settled, you don't have to work too hard these days, it's better to take a rest."

"Don't worry, lord. I know my body best. I can still hold on."

Guo Jia's face was as calm as water, and he seemed to care nothing about life or death. This detached attitude moved Liu Yu.

Sometimes, he really couldn't understand how a person could look at life and death so indifferently, as if they were insignificant matters.

How much hardship and experience does it take to achieve such a state of mind?

At this moment, Guo Jia had obviously reached an extraordinary state.

"Fengxiao, there is no need to say more. You must rest well during these days. This military order must not be violated."

Liu Yu said with a serious face. He knew how important Guo Jia was to him, but he also knew that it was more important to let Guo Jia rest well at this time.

After hearing this, Guo Jia's eyes flashed with emotion. He naturally knew Liu Yu's good intentions and was very grateful. However, his ideal was to occupy the four states as soon as possible to complete the unification of the north.

But Guo Jia also knew that since Liu Huangshu said so, Liu Yu would not agree no matter how much he insisted.

Helpless, he could only smile bitterly, salute Liu Yu, and then turn and leave.

Liu Yu was very tired after the continuous battles, and he wanted to take a good rest while the generals were reorganizing their troops. But he did not expect that on the second day, generals came to him one after another to ask for battle.

The first one to come in was Guan Yu. Guan Yu had an arrogant look on his face. He believed that Jizhou was now vulnerable. As long as he was given another 5,000 soldiers, he could conquer the entire Jizhou.

Liu Yu kept yawning and was obviously a little listless.

He said he would think it over and let Guan Yu leave.

Liu Yu was just about to lie down when Zhang Fei walked in again.

The reason and purpose are the same as Guan Yu's, which is to attack Jizhou.

Liu Yu didn't explain, just waved his hand and forced him to leave.

I thought the desire for war would stop there.

Guo Jia and Huang Zhong had walked into the tent without knowing when.

Liu Yu opened his eyes and saw Guo Jia slowly approaching. Guo Jia's face was slightly pale, and his steps were a little unsteady, but his eyes revealed determination and persistence.

"My Lord, I have something important to tell you." Guo Jia walked up to Liu Yu and said softly. There was a hint of fatigue in his voice, but his tone was very firm.

Liu Yu looked at Guo Jia and couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.

Liu Yu sat up straight and asked seriously, "Fengxiao, what's so urgent?"

"My Lord, after Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou, he has been bedridden and unable to handle military and political affairs. Therefore, he handed over the military power of Jizhou to Shen Pei.

Shen Pei is a man of great strategy. He ordered everyone to defend the city and not to leave the city to fight. If we want to capture Jizhou, I am afraid we will face a difficult battle. "

The most difficult part of conquering a city is siege. Even if you have large siege equipment, it will inevitably cause huge casualties if you want to break through a city.

Liu Yu felt very troubled by this problem.

In the era of cold weapons, every city was a solid fortress, and it was difficult to find other shortcuts unless it could be completely destroyed.

"My lord, I am willing to lead an army to attack Yecheng. I will not withdraw until the city is conquered!"

Huang Zhong continued the topic and volunteered to fight, with an excited expression and a firm tone.

Huang Zhong was loyal to Liu Yu. Liu Yu had exchanged several cities for him. Although he had made some military achievements, he still had not captured a city for Liu Yu, which made him feel very guilty.

Therefore, he was eager to capture Yecheng for Liu Yu in order to repay his lord's kindness.

Seeing Huang Zhong so enthusiastic, Liu Yu smiled and said comfortingly: "Han Sheng, don't worry. Although we have won the battles this time, the army has suffered heavy casualties and needs to rest well. When the time is right, I will send you to lead the army to attack Yecheng."

Huang Zhong looked puzzled after hearing this. He bowed and asked, "My lord, our army is now full of morale and fighting spirit. Isn't this a great opportunity to attack Yecheng?"

"The Yuan army has suffered several defeats, and countless soldiers have lost their lives. The remaining soldiers have become miserable. If we attack again and again at this moment, the hatred of the soldiers will inevitably increase. Even if we succeed, I am afraid we will suffer heavy losses.

We just need to wait for a moment, and their tense nerves will relax. Then, we can attack at the best time."

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong nodded repeatedly, then saluted and turned to leave.

At this time, Guo Jia took over the conversation and said, "My lord, you are still reluctant to send troops. Are you waiting for Youzhou's action?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly and replied: "Those who know me well are filial. We have been planning for Youzhou, but we have never used it. Now it has come to a critical moment, and it is time for them to exert their strength."

Guo Jia said calmly: "Wenhe is secretly plotting in Youzhou, and General Taishi is charging in the front. We don't have to worry. If I'm not mistaken, Youzhou is already in chaos at this moment."

The two men smiled at each other and agreed with Guo Jia's speculation.

Although Guo Jia had never met Jia Xu, this old fox, he knew his deeds very well.

This person is proficient in military tactics and is good at understanding people's hearts.

His strategy is different from mine. If I were to describe my strategy in one word, it would be strange.

If I were to describe Jia Xu in one word, it would be poisonous.

Guo Jia was also afraid of the word poison. He believed that Jia Xu was an extremely wise strategist whose plans were as deep as the abyss and difficult to understand.

He only pursues his goals without considering any consequences. His unscrupulous approach is frightening.

Looking back, after Dong Zhuo was killed, Li Jue and Guo Si originally planned to lead their troops back to Xiliang in an attempt to survive.

But Jia Xu broke into the tent alone, and with his eloquent tongue, he successfully dragged the two men into the vortex of war.

They led their army to attack Chang'an, and suddenly the sky was dark and the people were living in misery.

Although the war was eventually quelled by Emperor Liu, the city of Chang'an had suffered huge losses and countless lives were slaughtered.

Without Jia Xu's instigation, history might have been different.

Perhaps Chang'an could have been spared and the people would not have suffered the ravages of war.

But history cannot be rewritten after all, and Jia Xu's wisdom and ruthlessness became a shadow of that era.
