The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 209 Invincible
There are many things without deep thought and careful consideration, and it is difficult to gain insight into the mystery inside.

Yuan Shao suddenly came to his senses at this moment.

The three conditions he put forward to Cao Cao, Cao Cao can complete the first one, and send troops to attack Guanzhong together.

But the latter two, one granted him the imperial edict of Guanzhong, and the other sent the emperor to Yecheng.

With these two conditions, Cao Cao really has the confidence to go back on his word.

Among the princes, treachery can often be used as the righteousness of attack.

But this time, if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao really conquer Guanzhong and Cao Cao breaks the contract, Yuan Shao has no reason to accuse Cao Cao of anything.

Is it possible to make the whole story of Cao Cao's treachery public?
Yuan Shao was a great general of the Han Dynasty, with a high position and power, and mighty, but he is not the emperor, the territory of the great Han Dynasty is granted to you by the emperor, and it is yours. If it is not granted to you, would you dare to rob it openly?If Yuan Shao used this kind of reason to accuse Cao Cao, it would be tantamount to pointing the finger at the emperor, and he, the great Han prince who had four generations and three lords to fight against violence, would not be tantamount to committing a rebellion?
As for the emperor's move to Yecheng, let alone, Yuan Shao can only use it openly, and cannot rob it openly, otherwise what is the difference between him, Li Jue, Guo Si, and Dong Zhuo?
At first he didn't think too deeply, Yuan Shao only felt that he was powerful and Cao Cao didn't have the guts to break the contract.

Now that I think about it, if Cao Cao breaks the contract, he can only be a dumb man and suffer unspeakably from eating coptis.

The expression is heavy and the eyes are dark.

Yuan Shao squinted his eyes and said softly: "If Cao Aman really betrayed me, then don't blame me for not remembering the past."

If Cao Cao really clings to the emperor and does not let go, Yuan Shao has only one last way left.

Put Cao on the same road as Dong Zhuo and Li Jue Guo Si.

Yuan Shao's power is constantly expanding, and one day Hebei and the Central Plains will face each other tit for tat, and Cao Cao refuses to submit, can Yuan Shao give up?

Since Cao Cao blocked Yuan Shao's pace, Yuan Shao could only eliminate Cao Cao.

Seeing Yuan Shao, Guo Tu really put his mind on Cao Cao's head. I have to say that he was a little bit wrong.

"My lord, from my point of view, Cao Aman's intention to attack Guanzhong this time is probably to hurt both the lord and Guo Jia. Therefore, Cao Aman is very likely to be a hindrance. I hope the lord will take precautions early."

Yuan Shao sneered in disdain, and explained his previous strategic deployment with Cao Cao, adding a sentence at the end.

"The [-] troops that Cao Aman brought were all going to fight Wuguan, and he stayed with me, even though he didn't dare to play any tricks."

"It turns out that the lord has been prepared for a long time, and he is making a fool of himself. Hehe, the lord is as good as a tiger, so how can he not think well?"

Guo Tu's sycophantic flattery made Yuan Shao feel at ease, and his serious expression immediately beamed.

The words are divided into two parts.

Cao Cao returned to his residence with easy steps. In the inner hall study, Cheng Yu and Xun You waited for a long time. After Cao Cao returned, Cheng Yu asked urgently, "How about the discussion between my lord and Yuan Shao?"

Cao Cao smiled heartily.

"Yuan Benchu ​​really hit the trick, let Yuan Rang and Miaocai lead the army to Wuguan tomorrow."

From the very beginning, Cao Cao wanted to keep his troops out of Yuan Shao's nose because he had other plans.

But after he finished speaking, Cao Cao smiled again: "Yuan Benchu ​​still feared that I would shoot cold arrows behind his back, so he asked me to stay by his side and attack Hangu Pass together with him."

Cheng Yu and Xun You were startled, and Xun You asked eagerly, "How did my lord reply Yuan Shao?"

Cao Cao disagreed, and said, "I agree."

accepted? !

Cheng Yu and Xun You had extremely incredible expressions.

When the two of them were about to persuade them, Cao Cao raised his hand to stop them, and said with a smile, "Yuan Benchu ​​came here with an army of 20, and he wanted to kill me. The current situation cannot give Yuan Benchu ​​a chance to make peace with Guo Jia, so I must stay, hehe, I want to be by Yuan Benchu's side and watch how he goes to defeat step by step."

Cheng Yu and Xun You had dignified expressions and respected Cao Cao.

This courage is rare in the world.

Staying here with Yuan Shao without soldiers and horses is a risk and risking one's life.

But Cao Cao's rise to the Central Plains, the Central Plains extend in all directions, a land of hundreds of battles, surrounded by powerful enemies, Cao Cao has come step by step from the cracks to today, from the day he started his army, he only had a few thousand soldiers from the clan's children, and now he has more than ten soldiers Wan, from the prefect of a county to the ruler of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, from an eunuch to today's emperor and princes!
Crusade against the Yellow Turban, counterattack Lu Bu, reverse Yuan Shu, Cao Cao survived many times, and lived better than his enemies. In the future, he will conquer Zhang Xiu, conquer Lu Bu, destroy Yuan Shu, and resist Yuan Shao...

It is indeed dangerous to stay by Yuan Shao's side today, but he has nothing to fear. Based on his understanding of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will not kill him until the two sides have officially broken each other.

Cao Cao is full of confidence and full of confidence. The most fundamental reason is whether Yuan Shao and him will turn against each other. The decision is in Cao Cao's hands. Yuan Shao is strong, but Yuan Shao is not as good as Cao Cao. With the righteousness of the Son of Heaven, that is, the drum of majesty and the banner of righteousness, Yuan Shao will not have much resistance to attacking anyone, but he has to hesitate for a long time before attacking Cao Cao.

He also informed Cheng Yu and Xun You of Guo Jia's reaction, and Cao Cao couldn't help but asked with a look of color on his face, "In your opinion, can Guo Jia see the pros and cons of the situation?"

Now that Cao Cao had made a decision, Xun You and Cheng Yu stopped insisting. Hearing Cao Cao's question, Xun You looked thoughtful, and after a while he said calmly: "Guo Jia's name is like thunder, but I have no chance to get in touch with this person. I don't know much about him, but if Shangshu Xun is here, he must believe that Guo Jia can see clearly what the lord is planning."

Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, his complacent expression disappeared, and he nodded upon hearing this.

Xun Yu knew Guo Jia better than them.

Cheng Yu stroked his gray beard thoughtfully, he had an inexplicable awe of Guo Jia.

Because he believed that when Cao Song was killed, Zhang Kai's confession was true.

"My lord did not hesitate to damage his reputation this time to design Guo Jia and Yuan Shao. Regardless of victory or defeat, the lord will reap the benefits. Whether Guo Jia sees through the lord's scheme depends on how he responds."

Although Cheng Yu is fascinated by Guo Jia, it does not mean he is blind. Whether Guo Jia can see through Cao Cao's strategy will have an answer on the battlefield.

The three princes who are attracting the attention of the world are fighting in Guanzhong. Cao Cao has lost his prestige before the battle has started.

Because the edict he gave to Guo Jia, if it sounds nice, it is difficult for others, and if it sounds bad, it is unreasonable.

If Guo Jia resists the decree and does not respect it, all the princes of the world will react.

Using this excuse to start a war is really against the unspoken rules among princes.

Otherwise, what is the difference between Cao Cao himself and the emperor?He issued an edict to let you hand over the territory, and if you don’t obey, you will be a traitor. This is not how the game is played between the princes. If Cao Cao does this every time, it is equivalent to making enemies to the world. Sooner or later, the princes will attack him, and he will die It's not far away.

On the battlefield, there are one thousand wounds to the enemy and eight hundred self-damages.

This time Cao Cao did not hesitate to hurt himself first and then the enemy, which sounds unwise.

But Cao Cao didn't think so.

If he could provoke a war between Guo Jia and Yuan Shao, so what if he lost some prestige?

It can delay Yuan Shao for three to five years, give him breathing space, and continue to be strong.

Cao Cao felt that the loss this time was nothing compared to the benefit.

"Oh? What does Zhong De mean by this? How can Guo Jia respond to see what he's thinking?"

Cao Cao laughed and played again.

Cheng Yu's expression turned serious, and he cupped his hands at Cao Cao and said, "If Guo Jia defends with all his strength, it means that he has not realized that the Lord is the ultimate beneficiary. If Guo Jia not only wants to defend Guanzhong, but also severely damages the army of the Lord and Yuan Shao, it means that Guo Jia Jia has already guessed the Lord's mind at all points, and the main battle means that Guo Jia does not want the Lord to get what he wants."

If Guo Jia were here, he would have the same emotion as Cheng Yu as a hero.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, regardless of victory or defeat, regardless of their gains or losses, Guo Jia has no benefit.

In this battle, Guo Jia is not expanding, but defending the vested results. In such a defensive battle, there is no one who will not die, no one will not consume financial resources, and no one will not reduce his strength.

So even if Guo Jia was invincible, Guo Jia had already lost the moment Yuan Shao and Cao Cao came to Luoyang.

Cao Cao successfully incited Yuan Shao to attack Guanzhong, and Cao Cao had already won.

As for whether Yuan Shao can defeat Guanzhong, to Guo Jia, it is nothing more than how badly he lost.

In order not to benefit Cao Cao's fisherman, Guo Jia wanted to fight, and the strategic purpose was to eliminate Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's soldiers and horses as much as possible.

"Really? No matter how Guo Jia responds, even if he can keep Yuan Benchu's 20 soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, hehe, I will always be the beneficiary."

Cao Cao was not afraid that Guo Jia would see his strategy, because Guo Jia was passive and Guo Jia could not dominate the situation.

One thing Yuan Shao didn't expect was that if Guanzhong was captured, Cao Cao would not break his promise on this condition, and would definitely grant Guanzhong to Yuan Shao.

Because Yuan Shao's entry into Guanzhong means that he must always guard against Guo Jia's counterattack in Yizhou.

If this situation arises, Cao Cao's next strategy is to turn the enemy into a friend with Guo Jia, and Cao Cao will give him whatever Guo Jia wants.

The loss of Guo Jia in Guanzhong will no longer make the princes jealous, but Cao Cao wants to use it to kill people.

At that time, Guo Jia was in Yizhou, and he was in the Central Plains. They refused to be Yuan Shao together.

What's more, Guanzhong is waiting to be rejuvenated. Guo Jia won Guanzhong and had to rest for several years, and Yuan Shao won Guanzhong. The same is true, so that Cao Cao will have more time to strengthen himself.

Yuan Shao had 40 soldiers. Even if he won this battle without losing any of his troops, at least he would have to station 15 troops in Guanzhong. After all, Guo Jia still had [-] troops in Yizhou.

From the beginning to the end of the game Cao Cao set up, he was the one who was truly invincible.

As for whether the [-] soldiers and horses he brought would be lost on the battlefield, he had other plans.
