The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 196

Yuan Shao's rise in Hebei, without the repeated harassment and flanking attacks by the black bandits led by Zhang Yan, his road to prosperity can be described as smooth and unimpeded. Gongsun Zan's fall is imminent, and Yuan Shao alone occupies the four states of the world. He is worthy of the name of the world's number one prince. , Bingfeng pointed, no one is not afraid, the spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease, although Yuan Shao is over forty, but at this time he is more energetic than ever before, looking down on the world.

Both Guo Tu and Xu You are in favor of fighting Guo Jia. On the general side, Yan Liangwen Chou, Zhang Jai Quyi, Chunyu Qiong Gao Lan, etc. did not make a clear statement, but one or two are eager to fight. on the stage.

Seeing this situation, Yuan Shao's heart was also moved.

It is undeniable that there is a kind of panic in his own heart.

Now the family has a big business, and the Yuan family is powerful.

Aspiring to the top of the world is not out of reach.

But he, Yuan Shao, is over forty years old.

How many years will it take to calm the world and the world?

Is he destined to sit on the emperor's throne?
If he is 20 or 30 years old, he may still be able to wait. His eagerness for quick success and his desire for quick success are not groundless.

"Okay, I mean..."

Yuan Shaosu Rong took the case and decided to send troops to attack Guanzhong.

But at this time, there was a person in the hall shouting: "My lord, wait a minute."

Tian Feng went out to stop Yuan Shao from giving orders.

Both civil and military officials in the hall knew that Yuan Shao was greedy for fame and fortune and cared about face, if Yuan Shao had spoken out the order, it would be difficult for him to go back on his word at that time, and even cause trouble for his upper body.

Tian Feng, who had been thinking silently just now, did not express his opinion, but at the moment of Yuan Shao's decision, he suddenly woke up and spoke to stop him.

"Yuan Hao, what's your opinion?"

Yuan Shao was somewhat displeased when Tian Feng interrupted him.

Tian Feng was frowning, did not look at Yuan Shao's ugly face, and said in a deep voice to himself: "My lord wants to conquer Guanzhong, I agree. Guanzhong is fertile and wild, and Liangzhou is in turmoil. If we can conquer Guanzhong, we can fight with Bingzhou. Sizhou and Liangzhou are connected together. In three to five years, no one in the world can stop the pace of the master's unification. However, if the master wants to attack Guanzhong today, I will strongly agree with him, but this idea of ​​attacking Guanzhong, It was Cao Cao who mentioned it, would Cao Cao turn a blind eye to the strength of the lord?"

"Hmph, although Cao Aman coerced the emperor to order the princes, but he has two territories in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and his troops are only in the early [-]s. Does he still want to dictate to me?"

Yuan Shao snorted sullenly.

His jealousy of Cao Cao's coercion of the emperor to make the princes is unimaginable. As early as the early days of the army, he thought of electing Liu Yu as the new emperor so that he could control it.

After so many years, Cao Cao has achieved what he dreamed of, which will definitely make him jealous.

Tian Feng saw that Yuan Shao was only angry but didn't think deeply, so he was a little anxious when he spoke.

"My lord, you have to know that no matter how many troops Cao Cao has today, or how many territories he has, he will always be an enemy that stops you from going south. As long as Gongsun Zan is defeated, the lord will be able to wipe out Hebei. At that time, the lord will continue to expand. If you were able to cross the river and go down the river, Cao Cao was your biggest enemy at that time! Couldn’t Cao Cao see this situation? With his resourcefulness, he must have known that sooner or later he would have a life-and-death battle with you! And the outcome of this battle The result, even, is to determine the ownership of the world!"

The whole hall was silent, and many people showed expressions of shock.

"Tian Feng, don't be alarmist. Cao Aman is facing the enemy now. Lu Bu in the east and Yuan Shu in the south all hate him. It is lucky for Cao Cao to be able to protect himself. He is competing with the lord for the world? It is nonsense."

Guo Tu first refuted Tian Feng a few words, then bowed his hands to Yuan Shao, and said in a loud voice: "My lord is so prosperous today, it is difficult to have a strong enemy in the world. We only need to wait for Gongsun Zan to be defeated. At that time, my lord can march south. Surrender, give him a high official and generous salary, and let him enjoy the glory for a lifetime. This is also a reward for his understanding of current affairs. If Cao Cao does not surrender, hehe, Gongsun Zan is the best example. Going south is indeed deciding the ownership of the world."

After Guo Tu finished speaking, he turned his eyes and turned towards the general, and then said loudly: "My lord has several times as many troops as Cao Cao, and all the generals are rare and talented generals in the world. Could it be that my lord has someone like you who is good at fighting?" The generals are serving, and today, is there any enemy to fear? Generals, Cao Cao has only one hundred thousand soldiers, maybe you can wipe out Cao Cao's entire army by waiting for two or three soldiers to lead tens of thousands of soldiers each?"

After these words were finished, not only Yuan Shao immediately felt complacent, but the generals also held their heads high and their faces full of confidence.

Guo Tu's words boosted morale, but the timing was wrong.

Ju Shou, who was watching coldly, sneered: Can Gongsun Zan be compared with Cao Cao?Cao Cao never surrendered when he was beaten by Lu Bu to the point where there were only three counties left!

The matter has come to this point, Tian Feng sees that Yuan Shao cannot be persuaded, and tries to persuade Yuan Shao again, but in the end it turns into a sigh.

But Ju Shou came out at the right time, and calmly said to Yuan Shao: "Master, please think about how Liu Bei's Xuzhou was lost."

Yuan Shao, who was smiling complacently, suddenly froze.

If it is said that Liu Bei's Xuzhou City was lost by Lu Bu's surprise attack, that is the direct reason.

But the root cause is that Liu Bei's attack on Yuan Shu gave Lu Bu an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Yuan Shu took the initiative to fight Liu Biao and Cao Cao, but he did not take the initiative to provoke a war against Xuzhou. He just called himself an "Uncle Xuzhou" and was used by Cao Cao to say that he secretly had a heart of disobedience. Liu Bei was the cause of this war. The initiator of the Lv Bu and Liu Bei led to two consequences, losing Xuzhou and forming a deadly feud with Yuan Shu. Now, Yuan Shu is doing everything possible to provoke the relationship between Lu Bu and Liu Bei, intending to put Liu Bei to death.

Liu Bei lost Xuzhou City, although Cao Cao did not make a profit, it does not mean that he did not have the original intention of trying to reap the benefits.

Perhaps in Cao Cao's mind, Lv Bu stationed troops in Xiaopei, and Liu Bei defended Xuzhou City. If this situation is not broken, it will be very difficult for him to plot Xuzhou.

It's just that Liu Bei was unexpectedly able to endure Lv Bu's sneak attack, and he was separated from Lv Bu's host and guest.

According to normal people's thinking, after Lu Bu succeeded in sneak attacking behind, Liu Bei and Lu Bu would definitely not die. As long as the two fight, Cao Cao will have a chance to win Xuzhou. Unfortunately, Liu Bei is very human and behaves unexpectedly.

After a little bit of condescension, most of the flames of complacency in Yuan Shao's heart were extinguished.

Cao Cao encouraged him to beat Guo Jia, did he want to stab him in the back?

Yuan Shao is not stupid, he can be sure of this, Cao Cao has no strength to wade through the Northern Expedition of the Yellow River.

"Ju Shou, tell me, what does Cao Aman think?"

After calming down, Yuan Shao looked at Jushou calmly, waiting for the next sentence.

Ju Shou didn't underestimate Cao Cao in his heart, and always believed that Cao Cao was a wise and resourceful hero.

He thought of the strategy of coercing the emperor to order the princes a long time ago, but the person who finally realized this strategy was not his lord, but Cao Cao.

Judging from the fact that Cao Cao rushed to greet him after receiving the news that the emperor was in Luoyang, Cao Cao's decision-making ability is definitely better than Yuan Shao's.

And Cao Cao would never regard Yuan Shao as an ally.

In the days after the Kwantung Army defeated Dong, Yuan Shao in Bohai and Cao Cao in Dongjun really helped each other, and even Cao Cao was somewhat attached to Yuan Shao, because Yuan Shao rose faster than Cao Cao, and his political appeal was stronger than Cao Cao. Thousands of times stronger.

Compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao used to be like a firefly compared to a bright moon, and it was difficult to compete for glory, but now?Cao Cao’s command of the princes by the emperor has already surpassed Yuan Shao politically. Even Yuan Shao’s current official position was conferred on Yuan Shao by Cao Cao’s fake emperor’s hand. Judging from the recommended appointment, Yuan Shao has already fallen behind in this respect.

At present, Cao Cao is still difficult to compete with Yuan Shao in terms of military strength, but if Cao Cao is given time to develop, it is really hard to say who will win.

Cao Cao must not be underestimated!

"My lord, Cao Aman's letter said that if my lord forced Guo Jia back to Yizhou, he would ask the emperor to move to Yecheng. Please don't take this condition to heart. You have to understand that unless you drive Cao Cao into eternal doom Otherwise, he would not have given the Son of Heaven away."

Jushou first poured a basin of cold water.

Yuan Shao is not the kind of master who doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't cast the eagle. As long as he thinks it will be profitable, he will probably put it into practice. As for whether he has benefited in the end, he hopes to judge by the results, not guess.

"Hmph, I knew he had no good intentions."

Yuan Shao thought about Cao Cao's character, and now he understood that Cao Cao's empty promises should not be trusted.

"If Cao Cao dares to break his promise, then the lord can launch an army to attack him!"

Guo Tu's arrogant attitude, with Yuan Shao's current strength, even as a counselor, he can feel proud.

This sounds reasonable.

Ju Shou smiled, slightly sarcastic.

"In this matter, let me think that the lord can force Guo Jia back to Yizhou. At that time, Cao Cao used the reason that the emperor did not want to move to Yecheng. What should I do? Do we, the Hanchen, have the right to call on the emperor? Drink it? If so, what reason does your lord have to go to war against Cao Cao? Even if you don’t care about other things and just send troops to attack, how can you be sure that your lord will be able to defeat Cao Cao?”

"My lord has hundreds of thousands of powerful soldiers in his hands. It is very easy to destroy Cao Cao. Jushou, do you dare to question the strength of your lord?"

Guo Tu frowned coldly, he heard Ju Shou's ridicule, he was so angry that he couldn't hold back.

Yuan Shao is actually not happy, he is now the number one prince in the world, he has 40 troops, if he can't even beat Cao Cao's [-] troops, then what is the talk of sweeping the world and dominating the world?

"Guo Tu, listen to Jushou first, don't interrupt him."

Guo Tu retreated angrily, with a schadenfreude smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

He could already hear the anger hidden in Yuan Shao's indifferent voice.

Obviously, Ju Shou said something he shouldn't have said.

Ju Shou also understood this, knowing that he had offended Yuan Shao.

However, there are some words, as a counselor, he has to say.

Faithful.
