[Three Kingdoms] Seven steps into wetness

Cao Zhi has black lines all over his head.

This voice was contemptuous and playful, and it was extremely familiar, and one could even tell who it was just by hearing the tone of the first word.

——Yang Xiu.

He stood waiting for Guo Jia outside Wubu, and behind him were two rows of solemn guards extending from the graceful and calm hall at the end of his sight, which was becoming more and more energetic, high-spirited and unruly.

Cao Zhi frowned slightly.

Yang Xiu has been his teacher and even a friend for ten years.Whether he saw through his disguise when we first met ten years ago, or now he finally understands him completely.As for today, the relationship between the two is somewhat awkward.

But he didn't say a word, just saluted respectfully, and asked: "How are you, sir?"

Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly.

He flicked his sleeves, as if he wanted to brush off the ashes that never existed, and said with a sneer: "Could it be that the fourth son thinks it's not good to be here?"

Cao Zhi has black lines all over his head.

When Yang Xiu left in the past, he refused to see each other. It seems that even today, the accumulated anger is still on the verge of exploding.Cao Zhi could only helplessly say: "Mister, you are joking..."

Yang Xiu raised the corner of his mouth: "Is it funny?"

"Ha ha……"

Guo Jia got off the carriage.

He watched the two masters and apprentices fight each other, or Yang Xiu unilaterally picky, while Cao Zhi unilaterally retreated, and he felt inexplicably subtle in his heart.

The atmosphere between the two seems to be not good, but in fact it is a familiarity that no one can penetrate.

He finally said calmly: "Brother Dezu, where is the lord?"

Cao Zhi said: "Sir, since you have come here, why bother to look for your father? It is better to rest for a while, and to recharge your batteries."

Guo Jia coughed lightly, only shook his head and said indifferently: "Since we have come here, we can rest sooner or later."

Cao Zhi sighed.

Yang Xiu squinted his eyes to conceal the ambiguity that flashed in his eyes.

First ordered the servants to settle down the tired Hua Tuo, then bowed slightly and said with a smile: "The prime minister has been waiting for a long time, the military advisor please!"

This road is not short, Guo Jia is far away from the battlefield after all, so he asked Yang Xiudao: "Brother Dezu, please tell me, what is the situation in Jiangling now?"

Yang Xiudao: "The Prime Minister has previously purged Jiangling, so it looks calm and peaceful on the surface, but inside there is a fluctuating heart, which is quite unpredictable."

Guo Jia frowned: "Then what will Sun Quan do?"

"Zhuge Liang went to Jiangdong to ask Sun Quan to send troops, but Sun Quan has not agreed yet."

Guo Jia's expression turned pale: "Where's our army?"

But Yang Xiu sighed: "It's a pity that the military adviser came one step too late, Zhang Yun and Cai Mao were killed by the prime minister two days ago!"

Guo Jia frowned: "What?"

Yang Xiu sighed: "Not long ago, the prime minister ordered Jiang Gan to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender, but unexpectedly found Zhang Yun and Cai Mao's letter of collaborating with the enemy in Zhou Yu's camp...The prime minister killed these two in a fit of anger."

Guo Jia took a deep breath, he had already realized that something was wrong.

The purpose of their trip was to regain Jingzhou and kill Liu Bei.Now that Cao Cao has taken over Jingzhou, he just waits to kill Liu Bei.Among them, Sun Quancheng is the most critical link.

Confronting Sun Quan is a battle between navy and navy!

Cao's army lacked the commander of the water army, and their northern soldiers were good at road warfare. As for the water army, they were only talking on paper.What's more, the surrender of the new army, no matter the combat style is incompatible with them, or the loyalty of the soldiers is questionable... In a short period of time, the combat effectiveness of this army is extremely small.

Regardless of whether Cai Hao and Zhang Yun were really collaborating with the enemy, just because of the deaths of these two people, the strength of this navy army can almost be ignored!

——Zhang Yun and Cai Mao, aren't they the most crucial part?And once these two people died, wouldn't all his plans collapse?

Guo Jiazhuan clenched his fist.

Talking all the way, people have arrived in front of the main hall.There were voices of disapproval or approval from everyone in the hall, and Guo Jia understood what they were talking about after listening to a few words, and it was also a matter of whether or not troops should be sent to surround Jiangxia.

Most people think it is possible, while a small number, such as Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, and Xun Yu, advocate "no rush attack".

At this time, Cao Cao had already seen Guo Jia, and with a surprise on his face, he suddenly got up and walked towards the door.The movement was so big that there was even a brief silence in the hall.

Then they all saw that it was Guo Jia who had arrived!

Cao Cao held Guo Jia, looked at his pale face, half heaved a sigh of relief, half sighed, "Feng Xiao is finally here!"

Guo Jia was moved.

But this is not a good time to reminisce about the old days, so Cao Cao said, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Before the army set off, he talked with Guo Jia, and Guo Jia obviously supported him.But now Xun Yu and others don't support him, instead they persuade him to withdraw his troops and go back. He wants Guo Jia to repeat what they said in the past to strengthen the determination of these advisers.

--war!Not only to fight, but also to win!

Guo Jia talked eloquently, but Cao Cao's complexion was getting worse and worse.

In fact, because of the deaths of Cai Hao and Zhang Yun, Guo Jia had to change his plan, so what he did, just like what Tian Chengyu and Jia Xu did these days, advised Cao Cao not to fight easily from various angles.

He has controlled Jingzhou, and he can attack Xiakou to wipe out Liu Bei's remnants if he pours out his troops. Even if Liu Bei wants to make a comeback, there will be no good chance in a short time!So why confront Sun Quan, whom they don't know the details of?

Cao Cao sighed.

He was very happy when he heard that Guo Jia had come.He thought that Guo Jia came here to support him to send troops, but he was like the small group of people who advised him not to go to war.

Why don't they think about it, how can he not fight or attack when things have come to this?

He stared deeply at Guo Jia, then glanced at Jia Xu, Xun Yu, and Cheng Yu, his eyes could not tell whether it was disappointment or helplessness: "You guys have lost without fighting!"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, shocked!

They can naturally understand Cao Cao's meaning.

Regardless of the crisis at Guandu, or the collapse of Bailang Mountain.At that time, what they encountered was far more difficult and dangerous than these. They never gave up, and finally survived the desperate situation and won quickly.

But never once did they work together to persuade him not to fight!

—How could he not fight?

If you don't fight, you will lose, and only if you fight, can you win!

Xun Yu sighed, Jia Xu closed his eyes slightly, Cheng Yu shook his head and refused.

Guo Jia stared at Cao Cao with a look of indignation, and a strange paleness appeared on his face.

He felt a little cold.

Whether it is the strength of Jiangdong, the strength of the alliance between Liu Bei and Sun Quan, or the current arrogance and pride of Cao Cao, he feels that he is shrouded in a fog and cannot see everything clearly.

He finally didn't say a word, turned and left.

Cao Zhi called out in surprise: "Sir!"

But Guo Jia's figure didn't even pause, and quickly disappeared.

Cao Zhi was worried in his heart, met Cao Cao's calm gaze, and he seemed to have discovered himself, wondering: "Why are you here, fourth?"

Cao Zhi blinked.

Eyelids closed and opened, the look of longing in the eyes was extraordinary: "My son heard that the third brother talked about the situation on the battlefield, and he was fascinated. So I followed my husband secretly to see how our army wiped out Liu Bei and others in this battle. Pacify Jingzhou!"

Cao Cao glanced at him.

He wasn't at all, but he was already very displeased at being rejected by everyone at this time.Hearing that Cao Zhi still supported him, he laughed loudly and said, "Okay! Fourth brother, you can watch Liu Bei and Jiang Dong Erlang as you please, so why not be afraid!"

Having said that, it is meaningless to say more.Perhaps because of Guo Jia's arrival, Cao Cao finally decided to think again, and then sent troops to encircle and suppress Liu Bei.

All have resigned.

Cao Zhi was walking beside Yang Xiu, still searching for memories of the battle, when Yang Xiu said calmly, "Why are you here?"

Cao Zhi came back to his senses.He glanced at his teacher and said inexplicably, "Didn't the student just say that?"

Yang Xiu glanced at him meaningfully: "It's true to tell a lie."

Cao Zhi has black lines all over his head.

Hey sir, do you want to be so sharp?The other masters and apprentices haven't seen each other for half a year, at least they should have a drink and talk, but you are still scoffing like always!

He said helplessly: "The students really came to experience life on the battlefield..."

"Oh?" Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Then what are your insights along the way?"

"..." Cao Zhi paused for a long time before uttering a few words out of Yang Xiu's almost indifferent expression. "Dry food is too unpalatable."

Yang Xiu heard it, and slowly narrowed his eyes: "Don't want to write poetry?"

Cao Zhi laughed: "Sir, you are joking again, it's so funny hahaha!"

Yang Xiu's face was condensed.

Cao Zhi suppressed his smile and became more and more entangled: "If the student says he is worried about Mr. Guo's safety, do you believe it?"

Yang Xiudao: "Are you really here for Junshi Guo?"

"...Whether the master believes it or not, the students believe it anyway."

Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows.

Before Guo Jia came, Cao Pi sent someone to inform Cao Cao, so most people in Jiangling knew that Guo Jia and Hua Tuo were coming.But I don't know that Cao Zhi will also come.

——In the past, he left Xuchang to work in Yecheng, and Cao Zhi didn't even want to travel for a while to see him.If the prime minister hadn't asked him to come to Jiangling, he might not have met Cao Zhi.

The problem is here too.

He didn't even send him away from him whom he had known for ten years, so why did he secretly follow Guo Jia?

Is it really for Guo Jia?

Based on Yang Xiu's understanding of Cao Zhi, it is impossible for this person to do anything out of the ordinary, and it is naturally impossible for Yang Xiu to think that Cao Zhi would be so obvious that he would hook up with Guo Jia for the sake of his son's position.

So what is the reason that made him leave Xuchang and come to Jiangling?

Could it be that something is going to happen in Xuchang?

Yang Xiu was stunned, and looked at Cao Zhi with a slightly dignified gaze: "So, are you actually here for refuge?"

Cao Zhi blinked, then blinked again.He flattered his ass softly: "Sir, what you expected is right, you are really clever!"

Yang Xiu's expression seemed to be choked.

He glared at Cao Zhi, sneered and left with his hands behind his back.Cao Zhi was left alone with a puzzled expression on his face.

The cold wind is bleak.

Jiangling in November is actually not much warmer than Xuchang.

Guo Jia stood in the wind, his whole body was getting colder and colder, as if he was about to freeze into ice.

After a long time, he felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, but it was Cao Zhi who put on a big cloak for him, and he heard the young man's gentle voice: "The wind is strong in the city, Mr. is not in good health, you should go back to rest earlier."

Guo Jia seemed to have never heard of it.

He stared fixedly at the east, and suddenly said after a while: "Fourth young master, do you think there are things that don't change in this world?"

People often say that "the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change", but in fact the country is easy to change, which is not as easy as changing the hearts of the old people.

Because people's hearts are fickle, there are jealousy, jealousy, resentment...too many negative emotions.

So there are masters who are loyal to each other, so there are brothers who are enemies, so there are lovers who turn against each other.

...So, even if Guo Jia came, it wouldn't change the established things.

Cao Zhi sighed.

He tentatively grabbed the slender wrist of the person beside him, and then slowly tightened it, feeling the coldness of his skin and even the warmth of his heart.

Guo Jiadan said: "Is the Fourth Young Master comforting me?"

Cao Zhi's eyes flickered slightly.

Guo Jia finally laughed lightly.There was an inexplicable light in his eyes, and his whole body was as dazzling as the Big Dipper in the sky.

He said: "Fourth son, you have to take a good look."

Cao Zhi stared at him blankly.

He likes this person, and what he likes the most is his eyes when pointing Jiangshan.I like it so much that just looking at it, I even have the illusion of dry mouth: "Look... what?"

The wind is getting stronger.

Guo Jia looked at the east, his eyes were as sharp as thousands of horses galloping ahead, unstoppable.

After a long time, he paused word by word: "Look clearly, this world."

"because……"

"—This will be your world!"
