Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 878
It is said that Cao Cao failed to attack Zhang Xiu, and was chased by Zhang Xiu twice on the way back to the army. He suffered heavy losses, and he was a little depressed.

Suddenly there was news that the Huns attacked Yunzhou on a large scale.

Seriously!

Hearing this news, Cao Cao couldn't sit still.

"Exactly!"

Xun Yu nodded and said.

He has always been in charge of intelligence work.

The situation in Yunzhou has been under his surveillance.

As soon as the Huns entered Yunzhou, Xun Yu knew about it, so he immediately reported it to Cao Cao.

Very good!
Cao Cao walked around with his hands behind his back, speaking incoherently.

"This is a great opportunity, we must not let it go, and order Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hongle to gather troops and prepare to go out at any time."

Xun Yu frowned.

Although he didn't have a good impression of Yunzhou and Guo Jia, he still admired him for eliminating the grassland nomads.

After all, grassland nomadism is a confidant of the Central Plains.

Between Guo Jia and the Huns, he is still somewhat inclined to the former.

After all, we all belong to the Han Chinese.

"My lord, are you taking this opportunity to attack Yunzhou?"

Xun Yu asked puzzledly.

If this is the case, he will try his best to dissuade it.

After all, Guo Jia's elimination of the Xiongnu was considered a great achievement for the Central Plains.

No, no!
Cao Cao shook his head hastily.

"Yunzhou is far away from Yanzhou, and there is Jizhou in the middle. Now Jizhou has just won a big victory over Yuan Benchu, and the morale is booming. Naturally, we can't touch this bad luck. I plan to take advantage of the chaos and march into Bingzhou to take over the emperor."

It was so!
Hearing this, Xun Yu couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, but still felt a little regretful.

Although Cao Cao had no intention of attacking Yunzhou, it was not because of righteousness, but to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Obviously, if given the chance, Cao Cao would not let Yunzhou go.

It seems that the lord is not a person who values ​​meaning very much.

And slow!

Seeing that Cao Cao was about to dispatch troops, Xun Yu suddenly stopped Cao Cao.

"Wen Ruo, what does this mean?"

Cao Cao was a little puzzled.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, what exactly is Xun Wenruo going to do?

"My lord, now that the Huns are invading Yunzhou, it's time for my lord to make peace with Yunzhou. Why don't my lord write a letter to the general first, stating that our Yanzhou army is willing to help the general fight against the Huns?"

Help Yunzhou fight against the Huns?
Cao Cao suddenly felt a little happy.

Leaving aside the grievances between him and Guo Jia, even in the future Yanzhou and Yunzhou will not be able to avoid war.

Since sooner or later he is an enemy, it would be good for him not to take the opportunity to strike, so why would he help Guo Jia?

For Cao Cao, it is better for Guo Jia to fight the Huns to the death.

Although Xun Yu felt a little regretful, he still said, "My lord, I think that rashly marching into the state will surely arouse the resentment of Zhang Yang and the Yunzhou army, and it will be a bit bad to be the target of public criticism. Why don't you write to the general and say that we Willing to help Yunzhou fight against the invaders. Then send a message to Zhang Yang and ask him to come to Luoyang with us. In this way, we can enter Bingzhou in a legitimate way. Zhang Yang is a reckless person, and now he is facing pressure from the Yunzhou Army , will probably agree. As long as the emperor enters Luoyang, he will naturally fall into our hands."

This……

Cao Cao didn't think too much about it. Hearing what Xun Yu said, he felt that it made sense.

but……

He hesitated for a moment, then said: "How could Guo Jia allow the emperor to return?"

My lord, don't worry!

Xun Yu smiled lightly, and said: "Everyone wants to welcome back the emperor, but Guo Jia can't. Because he is already a great general, and he dominates the world. Sooner or later, he will become a king and dominate the world. Welcome back the emperor It can only make him feel uncomfortable. If the emperor is in his hands, he will most likely be charged with regicide. In his hands, the emperor is a hot potato. That's why he has been indifferent to the emperor's affairs many times Look at it. If he really wanted to welcome the emperor back, Zhang Yang’s strength would have been wiped out by Yunzhou long ago. How could Guo Jia allow him to live to this day? So it’s too late for him to be happy when we welcome the emperor to Luoyang? "

Makes sense!
After listening to Xun Yu's analysis, Cao Cao felt relieved.

Guo Jia is the most powerful person among the vassals, and Cao Cao also firmly believes that he will establish himself as king in the future, and the situation of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States will inevitably reappear.

Cao Cao is naturally an ambitious person, but his current strength is not enough, so he desperately hopes to hold the emperor in his own hands.

"In that case, I will write to Guo Jia immediately."

Cao Cao immediately picked up the pen and began to write a letter.

……

After Xun Yu left, Sima Fang walked in suddenly.

"Mr. came just in time!"

Cao Cao put down his brush and said with a smile, "Look at how well my letter is written? I haven't lost the prestige of our Yanzhou!"

Sima Fang just smiled lightly, and said, "I also have a letter here that I would like to ask Meng De to read."

As he spoke, he took out a letter.

Cao Cao was a little strange, took a look at it, and suddenly his face changed drastically.

This letter was indeed written by Xu Bugu, the wise king of the Xiongnu.

In the letter, Xu Bugu invited Cao Cao to attack Yunzhou together, and also stated that Gongsun Du in Liaodong would also respond together.

"Master, this letter?"

Cao Cao was shocked.

Sima Fang said: "This was entrusted by a friend of Xu Bugu to hand it over to me. After the matter is completed, he only wants Yunzhou, Gongsundu wants Youzhou, and Jizhou will naturally belong to the lord. Jizhou is fertile and wild, rich in products, but Overlord's capital. My lord, don't miss this opportunity!"

Cao Cao was also very moved.

Although Yanzhou can do it, it can't be compared with Jizhou after all. If Jizhou can succeed, his strength can be more than doubled.

but……

Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, and said: "Xun Wenruo means that we will bring the emperor back first, and we will discuss other matters later."

Scholar's meeting!

Sima Fang smiled coldly, and said: "The general situation of the world has changed, whoever is the most powerful is the master. The emperor is just a false name. Why did Guo Jia put the emperor in his eyes? Although Yanzhou is good, its territory is small and the land is barren. The potential for development is too small. Only when Jizhou is included in the bag can this be the capital of the overlord."

He cupped his fists and said, "My lord, think twice!"

Cao Cao's face was a little cloudy, and it took a while before he made a decision: "Okay, everything is as Mr. said, we will join forces with the Huns."

As he spoke, he was about to tear up the letter he had just written to Guo Jia.

Wait!
Sima Fang stopped him suddenly, and said with a smile: "You don't need to tear up this letter, it's very useful to keep it, and we can use a fake way to attack Guo."

False way to attack Guo!

Hearing this word, Cao Cao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he clasped his fists and said, "Jiang is still old and hot, Mr. Gaoming!"

They can completely carry it under the guise of helping Yunzhou, and take advantage of Jizhou's unpreparedness.
