Guo Jia and Xun You were shocked, but after some hesitation, they did not persuade them. (www>

Cao Cao was also moved for a while, but then he said with a wry smile: "I couldn't hide the incident at the beginning, which made me lose a lot of popularity. If I repeat the old trick this time, Yuan Shao may not be defeated, but something will happen to the rear of the old man." .”

The method is feasible, but it is a pity that the current Cao Cao is not the bloody Cao Cao in the past, and he dare not do such things anymore.

"Is there any other way?" Cao Cao sighed, opened his eyes, looked at Guo Jia, Xun You, and Cheng Yu expectantly, and said. [

"Alas." Guo Jia let out a sigh, then got up and came to Zhongying, raised his fist at Cao Cao and said, "Maybe Duke Ming can ask those aristocratic families for help, so that Xun Yu of Xudu can comfort him and get some food to spend the night." crisis."

In the Han Dynasty, aristocratic families were rampant, and most of them were wealthy.Even after the war, there are still many big clans that survived and even grew stronger.

Cao Cao had no food, but those big clans were all very rich.

If the relationship between Cao Cao and the big clan is good, of course this little food doesn't matter, the big clan will automatically provide Cao Cao.But the problem is that Cao Cao's meritocracy and emphasis on poor families have aroused the nerves of some big families.

As a result, many aristocratic families turned their hearts to Hebei. Naturally, no one was willing to lend a helping hand to Cao Cao.

And Guo Jia is a representative of the poor family.He had no choice but to introduce this strategy to Cao Cao.After all, if you want to appease those big clans, you need to give up a lot of benefits.

The more powerful the family, the troubles continued.

Cao Cao's face also changed when he heard the words, and he didn't want to do that in his heart.Reusing poor families and relying on aristocratic families are two completely different concepts.

Reusing the humble family will definitely increase the power of the lord.Relying on aristocratic families will inevitably reduce the power of the lord.

In Cao Cao's view, it is the kingly way to reuse talents from poor families.It would be pointless to compromise with those aristocratic families.

But the urgent food problem in front of him pushed Cao Cao to the corner.If you insist on not compromising with the aristocratic family, you will not be able to obtain food from the aristocratic family.

If there is a lack of food, Guandu will fall, Cao Jun will fail, and his Cao family will also be defeated after all.This urgent question is too serious.

After struggling for a while, Cao Cao said unwillingly, "Okay. Immediately order Xun Yu to appease the aristocratic families in the Central Plains, gather as much food as possible, and transport it to Guandu."

This order is tantamount to bowing to the aristocratic family.Cao Cao has been strong all his life, promoting only his talents and promoting poor families.Now it is to compromise with the aristocratic family.

This was not an ordinary blow. As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao seemed to have exhausted all his strength and was extremely weak.

"Promise." Guo Jia agreed upon hearing the words.

From the beginning to the end, Xun You did not speak.His heart is not here, his heart is in the South.

Cao Jun's lack of food was not because of Xun Yu.Xun Yu would not do such stupid things. On the one hand, he might expose himself. On the other hand, Yuan Shao's going south would also be of no benefit to Liu Feng.

Therefore, following this order, Xun You believed that his uncle would try his best to gather food and supply it to Guandu. [

But the problem is, even if Guandu can barely maintain it now, it can't live in Yuan Shao at a low level.

How could his uncle Xun Yu and Liu Feng from the south believe that Cao Cao could still defeat Yuan Shao in such a situation?

Because Xun You felt that in this war, if there was no god-given opportunity, Cao Cao's chances of winning would not be great.

why.

Xun You was puzzled in his heart.
