Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 366
Sun Da wrote them down one by one with a bitter face, thinking to find a suitable opportunity to mention to Zhou Cang whether he would find someone to do these jobs in the future, this was originally done by the marching commander Shi or a general, and he was a personal soldier Commander is beyond his power.Yang Rui is very good and suitable for this job.

It was already August when Zhou Cang returned to Tancheng. Transferring Zang Ba from Mount Tai to Liaodong solved a great worry, but there are still some things that need to be prepared in advance.

Zhou Cang transferred Chen Deng back to Xuzhou under the pretext that Chen Deng needed to recuperate, and took over the supervisory department. Cui Jun, the prefect of Xiapi, took over as the prefect of Guangling. What's wrong.

Mi Fang was originally from Xiapi, so Mi Fang took over as the prefect of Xiapi.For the time being, Han Yue, who has emerged in this big exam, will take over as the head of the Department of Economics.

Zhou Cang sent Zhou Chong to Beijing again. First, he paid tribute to Jian’an paper; Sun Guan was the Deputy Protector and General Anyi.

Cao Cao's headache was good and bad. He found that he would not get sick when he was facing difficulties or going out to fight, but he started to have a headache when he was free.Alas, could it be that I am a life of hard work and hard work?
Despite the headache, Cao Cao was still diligent in his official duties and reviewed the submitted documents on time. The documents placed on the table today made him sweat so nervous that his headache was a little better.He tore off the white scarf wrapped around his head, "Wang Bi, quickly invite Wen Ruo, Gong Da, Feng Xiao, and Zhong De, and also Zi Yuan."

The confidant, the master book king, will go away at the sound, and the five people will arrive soon.

"Master, is it better today?" Cheng Yu asked.

"Don't talk about it yet. Look at this newly sent official document. Zhou Weiguo actually went north to Liaodong to attack Gongsundu. Didn't he say that he was still patrolling around Xuzhou a few days ago? Liu Ye went to Xuzhou and found nothing. Clue?"

The five smiled bitterly. They already knew about this, but Cao Cao was bedridden and dared not disturb him.Xun Yu took out a memorial and said: "My lord, what I saw should be the official document sent a few days ago. Today, Shangshutai received Zhou Cang's memorial again, stating that Gongsun Du is wrong, saying that he has pacified Liaodong, and please Zhang Jiong. As the governor of Pingzhou, Pei Yuanshao is the general of Zhenbei, and Xu Huang is the general of Zhendong."

"Let me see it." Cao Cao couldn't take a look, and slapped the table, "Who does Zhou Weiguo think he is? He is so bold!"

"My lord, calm down." The five said hurriedly.

Cheng Yu spied in his heart, if Zhou Cang had been eradicated early according to his idea, what would happen today would not be the case, he wanted to return to his thoughts but dared not speak out.

Xun You said: "Zhou Weiguo's plans for Liaodong may have been planned a long time ago. He has been planning to build a navy, but we didn't discover it early."

Guo Jia said leisurely: "This matter has to start with why Zhou Cang sent troops to Liaodong."

"Huh?" Cao Cao was taken aback, "What's Feng Xiao's opinion?"

"Zhou Cang is sitting in Xuzhou, seemingly stable, but in fact he is surrounded by the lord, Sun Quan and Yuan Tan. If he does not confront us, the only way out is the vast sea. Alas, this man is indeed talented, and he actually returned Let him find a way out."

"What does Feng Xiao mean, he has always been an accomplice to us?" Cheng Yu took up the conversation.

"Not exactly. He just wanted to occupy Xuzhou, so he formed an alliance with Sun Quan to attack Huang Zu, and flirted with Yuan Shao. Liaodong was just a retreat for him." After Guo Jia finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought.

Guo Jia went on to say: "At the end of the day, he is still worried about the lord, fearing that the lord will annex Xuzhou."

Cao Cao felt that there were too many thread ends, and it became more and more chaotic.Do you have plans to annex Xuzhou?It would be a lie to say that there is no such thing, but firstly, he has no reason to attack Zhou Cang, and secondly, because of Yuan Shao's presence, he cannot attack Zhou Cang now.To put it bluntly, one is that we cannot, and the other is that we dare not.

"Let's not talk about why he sent troops, let's talk about how to deal with it first." Cao Cao grabbed the white towel and wiped the sweat from his head.

Cheng Yu said: "I think there are two possible strategies: one is to accept Zhou Cang's invitation, but when the lord sends troops to Hebei, he will send troops to Qingzhou to attack Yuan Tan, and attack Youzhou from the southeast of Liaodong to make Yuan Shao suffer from the enemy. On the grounds that Zhou Cang sent troops to Liaodong without authorization, and taking advantage of his lack of troops in Xuzhou, he and Sun Quan attacked Xuzhou and drove Zhou Cang out of Xuzhou!"

Xun Yu sighed softly, "It's not easy."

Would Zhou Cang be so obedient and send troops to attack Yuan Shao?Sun Quan is making friends with Zhou Cang, will he send troops to Xuzhou?When Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou unilaterally, Zhou Cang would inevitably fall to Yuan Shao, what should Yuan Shao do if he went south again?It will be Cao Cao who will be flanked.It is really a fantastic idea for Zhou Cang to occupy Liaodong, and he has all the initiative in his own hands.

Cao Cao was a little annoyed, "What else is there to do?"

Xun You said: "Zhou Cang occupies Liaodong. I don't know how Yuan Shao will deal with it? He should be more anxious than us."

Xu You chuckled: "As Zhongde said, Yuan Shao must either admit that Zhou Cang occupies Liaodong, or send troops to drive Zhou Cang out of Liaodong. It depends on his choice. But based on my understanding of Yuan Shao, he already has the intention of annexing Gongsundu plan, so it is very likely that they will send troops to Liaodong to end their worries."

Cao Cao was much more open-minded, but relying on Yuan Shao's actions to determine his choice made him very unhappy.

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "Does Ziyuan think that Zhou Cang's attack on Liaodong seems to be a coup but a failure? If Yuan Shao sends troops to Liaodong, then we will send troops to Xuzhou to wipe out Zhou Cang completely?"

Xu You smiled slightly, "Ah Man is so worrying."

"Then why don't we add more firewood to Yuan Shao, and make Yuan Shao's youngest son Yuan Shang the governor of Pingzhou, how about that?"

"It's a good way to drive away tigers and wolves."

Several people were still scheming, Yang Xiu came in and reported: "Master, Yuan Shao of Hebei sent someone to present a watch, and Shang Shu dared not delay and sent it directly to the mansion."

Half of the documents in the past were handled by Yang Xiu, and Cao Cao handed over all his confidantes to Wang Bi.

"Quick, present it quickly."

Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao's watch, his eyes straightened. "how so?"

Xun Yu hurriedly took it over and looked at it, "Ah?! Come and see."

Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Xu You quickly took over, "Yuan Shao unexpectedly asked Zhang Jiong to be the governor of Pingzhou!"

The six people froze on the spot for a moment.

Cao Cao sighed: "Oh, Hebei and Xuzhou are hard to come by!"

Guo Jia, who had been silent all this time, looked at it and let out a long sigh: "Yuan Benchu ​​has changed his mind. Alas!"

Cao Cao had mixed feelings when even Guo Jia, who had counted all the strategies, said so. "Is that how we recognize it?"

"No." Guo Jia said: "Zhou Cang's good idea is not so easy to succeed. Hehe, he wants Xuzhou and Pingzhou, how can such a good thing come from? My lord, why not use Zhou Cang in the name of the court?" Conferred the title of Pingzhou Shepherd! Let's see if he accepts it or not!"
