The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 226 Take the initiative to make enemies
It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married.

Some people and some things are beyond common sense.

Zhang Baiqi rebelled, and he thought the time was right.

Hangu Pass and Wuguan Pass fell one after another, Liu Biao of Jingzhou came with his army, and Zhang Baiqi held the imperial decree to rebel.

Guo Jia didn't know that Zhang Baiqi was now glamorous on the surface, but in reality he was shy.

This is the direct cause of Zhang Baiqi's rebellion. Without the grand ideal of righteousness, Kuangfu Hanshi has nothing to do with him.

Zhang Baiqi is greedy for profit, he wants to be the Marquis of Han Ping, and he wants to live a life of prosperity and wealth without worry.

These, Guo Jia can give him, but Zhang Baiqi cannot guarantee that Guo Jia will give him, especially when his status in the Guo Jia group is getting lower and lower.

Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity.

Zhang Baiqi led the prefect's salary, [-] shi a year, but he was still jealous of a man who was well-known in Yizhou.

Ma Jun.

Ma Jun, who holds the vain position of Yizhou Biejia, actually only has a salary of [-] shi a year, but Zhang Baiqi thinks that Guo Jia is partial.

Ma Jun, a nameless junior, how can a person who only knows how to play tricks be treated so favorably by Guo Jia?Donating a house and land and acting as a matchmaker, Guo Jia's love for Ma Jun has reached an unimaginable level.

In particular, Guo Jia also made a baby marriage for his own son, and the woman is Ma Jun's daughter.

Zhang Baiqi couldn't understand that today he followed Guo Jia into Yizhou with his military exploits and hard work. Without him, Guo Jia could not say that he would not have today, but he would never enter Yizhou so easily.

If Guo Jia treats a small person like Ma Jun so kindly, then Zhang Baiqi feels that Guo Jia has treated him badly.

If Zhang Baiqi could meet Guo Jia calmly and express his incomprehension and self-righteous grievances, Guo Jia would not comfort him, but would ask him a few words.

In the world, which vassal's civil and military officials' salary can compare with Yizhou's?

In the world, how many civil servants and military generals can have a salary higher than that of a prefect?

You are tired of living, you can't live freely, and you live with heavy burdens, it is because you are extravagant and desperate.

Marry fewer wives and concubines, raise fewer children, spend less extravagance, you can live a more nourishing life than anyone else, and you can sleep more comfortably than anyone else!
As for whether it is right or wrong to treat Ma Jun favorably, Guo Jia doesn't need to explain to anyone, he is a monarch, no one has the right to dictate what he does!

Other princes can't, if you refuse to accept, see you on the battlefield.

Let alone civil and martial arts, if you refuse to accept it, I can take back all I can give you, and even take it even harder, including your life!

Zhang Baiqi did not rebel before, so he had no chance.

Hangu Pass fell, Wuguan fell, and Guo Jia could no longer hold Guanzhong.

Liu Biao came forward with his army, and Zhang Baiqi dared to raise his troops to rebel.

Both the north and the south launched troubles together, Guo Jia not only made things worse, but even threatened to perish!

Fight for wealth and honor for a lifetime!
Zhang Baiqi led his [-] old Yellow Turbans to go straight to Chengdu. As a vanguard, he opened the way for Liu Biao's army.

Pioneer, there is always hard work without credit. After the work is done, Zhang Baiqi can go to Xudu with his head held high and his chest high, waiting for the imperial seal.

However, Zhang Baiqi acted too hastily.

He was afraid that the fleeting opportunity would be missed, but he did not expect that Liu Biao's army would stop marching after reaching the west of Jianping County.

Zhang Baiqi, who was marching towards Chengdu, stopped abruptly. If Liu Biao did not enter Badong to wipe out Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin's [-] soldiers, Zhang Baiqi did not dare to continue advancing towards Chengdu. He was afraid that Zhou Tai would quickly destroy him. rebellion.

Zhang Baiqi's army stationed in Hanping County without leaving Fuling County.

Zhang Baiqi's rebellion was very obvious, and the prefect of Fuling came to question him and was beheaded by him.

Seeing that the momentum was wrong, the people in Fuling County packed up their bags and fled towards Chengdu. Hanping County was occupied by Zhang Baiqi, and the people in the county also tried their best to escape from the place of right and wrong. Bai Qi cursed.

Guo Jia's rule in Yizhou won the hearts of the people, and the people never thought that Zhang Baiqi was a white-eyed wolf, and at this moment he turned his back on the Lord and begged for glory.

As for the imperial decree, that's bullshit!
For so many years, the imperial decree has never been beneficial to the people, and Guo Jia's promulgation of a series of policies that lighten the corvee and reduce the tax is the real benefit to the people.

Zhang Baiqi saw that the anger of the crowd could not be appeased, so he did nothing but slaughtered the entire Hanping County. After confiscating the food and grass, he began to make preparations for defending the city. When the matter developed to this point, Zhang Baiqi had no choice but to avoid hitting the south wall. Without looking back, on the one hand, he was guarding against Zhou Tailai's crusade against him, and on the other hand, he actively contacted Liu Biao and Cao Cao, hoping that they would lead an army to attack Yizhou as soon as possible.

Zhang Baiqi sent envoys to contact Liu Biao and Cao Cao, one arrived in Xiangyang and the other arrived in Xuchang. They hurried there and got a good answer.

Liu Biao fully agreed, and Xun Yu also made a promise.

Both parties gave Zhang Baiqi a positive answer, but both were sneering in their hearts.

Liu Biao is watching the fun and not afraid of big things.

Xun Yu is following Cao Cao's layout.

In Yizhou, the more chaos the better.

Guo Jia, who is far away in Zheng County, Guanzhong, is very leisurely at this moment, playing chess and chess in the study with his hands full.

The war is imminent, and the situation changes suddenly.

Guo Jia was surprisingly calm.

Fazheng was absent-minded, and Yuan Shao's [-] troops were about to enter Guanzhong. Whether Guo Jia's strategy would win in the end is hard to say.

"Xiaozhi, it's your turn."

Guo Jia calmly urged Fazheng to say something, because Fazheng's eyes were lost in thought, and he didn't move for a while while pinching the sunspot.

Fazheng looked up at Guo Jia, then looked down at the chess game, showing a wry smile.

How can you play chess with so many worries?

This round, I lost, and the loss was terrible.

Fazheng shook his head, put down the chess pieces, and said to Guo Jia, "My lord has won this game."

Guo Jia glanced helplessly at Fazheng, and when he was about to put away the chess pieces, Dian Wei stepped in and presented Guo Jia with a document.

After reading it calmly, Guo Jia handed the letter to Fazheng.

After seeing it, Fazheng turned pale with shock.

Zhang Baiqi rebelled!Liu Biao is approaching the border of Padang!
Zhou Tai sent this urgent military report to Chang'an directly by flying pigeons, and Xu Shu sent someone to send it to Zheng County to Guo Jia in a hurry.

Zhou Tai only had [-] troops in Badong, so Guo Jia had to decide what he should do.

Even Xi Zhicai, who is based in Chengdu, probably has to ask Guo Jia for instructions now.

If there were only Liu Biao's army, Zhou Tai would know exactly what to do.

But with Zhang Baiqi's rebellion, the situation has changed.

Zhou Tai went to fight Zhang Baiqi, and Badong had no barrier to stop Liu Biao.

Zhou Tai is on guard against Liu Biao, so let Zhang Baiqi do as he pleases?
He has slaughtered a Hanping County, can Zhang Baiqi be allowed to continue slaughtering the people of Yizhou?
"My lord, Liu Biao will never dare to invade Yizhou, otherwise he will cooperate with Zhang Baiqi, and Badong has already fallen. I am afraid that Liu Biao is imitating my lord's strategy of sending suspicious soldiers to Jingzhou, and let General Zhou suppress Zhang Baiqi. .”

Fazheng couldn't see anything from Guo Jia's calm expression. He couldn't even guess what Guo Jia was feeling or thinking.

Back then when Yuan Shu attacked Jingzhou, Guo Jia took advantage of the fire to rob Badong and Jianping counties and sent out suspicious soldiers. As a result, Liu Biao was worried for a long time and sent Guo Jia's army food and supplies for free. Now it seems that Liu Biao is repaying him in his own way. When Guo Jia was in a precarious situation, he also stepped in.

From the perspective of outsiders, Guo Jia is now besieged on all sides.

"Xiao Zhi, you handwritten a military order and sent it to Jiangyang County to let Zhang Yan lead the army to suppress Zhang Baiqi. You must write this military order clearly and tell Zhang Yan clearly that Zhang Baiqi only has [-] food bags. Just kill Zhang Baiqi, don't fight recklessly, if he loses more than five thousand soldiers, don't come to see me."

Guo Jia tidied up the chessboard as usual, putting away the pieces one by one, showing no signs of emotion or anger.

Both Dian Wei and Fa Zheng were a little surprised.

Zhang Yan was in Jiangyang County, and Zhang Baiqi in Fuling County was obviously farther away than Zhou Tai, but Liu Biao was playing tricks, since there was no need to be wary of Liu Biao, why not use Zhou Tai?It doesn't make sense to look far away.

"My lord, what about General Zhou? How should I reply to him?"

Zhou Tai sent an urgent military report, and at the same time he was asking for a fight.

Guo Jia still moved without raising his head, and said slowly: "Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, you also handwritten a military order to them. I hope to hear news of their troops coming to Xiangyang within a month."

Fazheng and Dianwei were dumbfounded.

Zhou Tai only has [-] soldiers and horses!
Regardless of how many troops there are in Xiangyang, at least Jianping County has Liu Biao's [-] troops, and Zhou Tai used [-] to fight [-], which is really not optimistic.

But after Fazheng thought about it, he understood Guo Jia's thinking.

He was still a little worried.

"My lord, what about the south of Yizhou?"

Guo Jia paused, raised his head to look at Fazheng, and said slowly: "If the dog is not put in the house and the door is closed, how can it be beaten happily?"

If the forces in the south of Yizhou also come to invade, Guo Jia has no longer considered keeping them out, but putting them into the territory, so that their entire army will be wiped out once and for all.

With a nervous look on his face, Fa took the order and left with Dian Wei.

At this time, Guo Jia still took the initiative to fight Liu Biao, which was definitely a crazy and admirable decision.

Who would have thought that Guo Jia would dare to take the initiative to make enemies in a situation surrounded by powerful enemies?
Guo Jia, who was tidying up the chessboard alone in the study, was tepid, holding one piece after another lightly, and at this moment, someone begged to see him again outside the door.

Zhen Yu, Zhang Xu, and Zhang Qin came to Zheng County from Chang'an to ask to see Guo Jia. They were frightened and anxious, and the first thing they said when they saw Guo Jia was.

"My lord, Hangu Pass has really fallen?"

Guo Jia nodded, there is nothing to hide.

The expressions of the three of them seemed like the sky was falling.

If Guanzhong is lost, their loss will be years of hard work in vain.

Zhang Xu stammered and asked Guo Jia, how pitiful he was.

"Master, why can't you resist Yuan Shao?"

At this time, Guo Jia was really not in the mood to take care of their emotions, and said lightly: "Did Yuan Shao win? The real battle has just begun."

The three of them didn't believe it.

Without Hangu Pass, what would Guo Jia do to fight Yuan Shao, who has a strong army and a huge army?

The three of them left in a daze.

Guo Jia put away the last piece on the chessboard in the study, knelt and sat alone at the table, looking at the empty chessboard calmly.

I do not know how long it has been.

Snapped

Guo Jia, who closed his eyes, raised his head and knocked over the chessboard with his hand. The chess pieces he had collected were scattered in the room in a mess, and the sound of ping, ping, ping, pong, pong, pong, pong, and pong gradually disappeared...
