Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 523 Guo Jia Advises Cao Cao
.
In fact, at this time, Cao Cao couldn't blame that no one took the initiative to invite Ying.Now, General Cao Ying, like Cao Ren, was sent to Xiliang to guard Xiliang, while Brother Xiahou was sent to Youzhou.

Now, among the generals staying in Xudu, Le Jin and Li Dian are the most powerful.These people either have the same ability as Yu Jin, or they are not as good as Yu Jin.

You know, even if Yu Jin guarded Zhuo County for two hours, he couldn't hold it, so they didn't want to do anything.

Now that Cao Cao is in a fit of anger, it can be predicted that if anyone loses the battle at this time, the appointment will not be good.

At that time, I'm afraid that everyone who is dismissed from office will be invited, and anyone who is not good will lose his head.In this way, how can anyone be willing to fight a battle that they know they are going to lose.

At this time, where there are still a group of civil and military ministers above the court, this is simply a group of ostriches.All of them lowered their heads, and none of them even spoke.

It's not that these ministers didn't persuade Cao Cao, everything that should be persuaded has already been persuaded, who can be blamed for Cao Cao's disobedience.

When Cao Cao was about to tear up the agreement with Daqin, a group of civil and military ministers persuaded Cao Cao.When Cao Cao forcibly detained the Daqin miners, all the civil and military ministers also persuaded Cao Cao.

However, Cao Cao insisted on going his own way. Cao Cao didn't listen to a word of what they said, and he just took their words as fart.

At this time, there is no one who is willing to speak out.Cao Cao wouldn't listen even if he tried to persuade him. If he insisted too hard, he might have to be punished.

"Feng Xiao, you have to come here quickly!"

"Feng Xiao, I can only rely on you now!" Xun Yu murmured in his heart.

Cao Cao glanced at the ministers of His Majesty, the more no one spoke, the more tense the atmosphere in Cao Cao's heart.

Cao Cao thought to himself, with the salaries allotted from the national treasury every year, is it raising such a group of wine bags and rice bags?
At this time, Cao Cao said angrily: "Since there is no one to fight, this king decides to fight in person!"

After Cao Cao said this, all the civil servants and generals in the hall raised their heads together and looked at Cao Cao's beard.

Why look at the beard?
When Cao Cao fought Ma Chao in Tongguan, he was forced by Ma Chao to cut off his beard and abandon his robe, and escaped with his life.

You know, in terms of strength, even ten Ma Chaos are not Li Chen's opponent.Those who have said it, Li Chen's subordinates are like clouds of civil servants, and fierce generals like rain.

The force value is comparable to that of Ma Chao, not to mention more, there is definitely a skill in one palm.

The generals of Cao Wei thought to themselves, let's see, you, King Wei, don't want to conquer in person, you just want to cut your beard and discard your robe once!This beard has grown for two or three years, and it is indeed time to cut it again.

Of course, these civil servants and military generals of Cao Wei just thought about it in their hearts, saying that it was designated and no one would dare to say it.

Cao Cao is the most face-saving person, and if he exposes his shortcomings at this time, he will have to lose his head.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"No, the King of Wei must never send troops against Qin again!

"Cough cough!"

At this time, only the sound of a violent cough was heard, and Guo Jia's slightly thin figure appeared in the hall.

Since Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao and unified the north, Guo Jia's illness became more and more serious.He has been recuperating in the mansion and has never participated in state affairs.

Since Guo Jia's condition is not good, no one bothers Guo Jia with state affairs.

Today, Xun Yu really had no other choice, so he sent someone to find Guo Jia.

Seeing Guo Jia coming, Manchao Wenwu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Cao Cao can't listen to anyone's words, but he can only listen to Guo Jia's words.

"Feng Xiao, you are not recuperating in the mansion, why are you here?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia concerned.

Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief, and said seriously: "If the minister doesn't come, I'm afraid that our country of Wei will be destroyed!"

"King Wei, I've heard everything!"

"You are right to tear up the covenant with Daqin. I can predict that the output of Qin's new grain is definitely beyond our expectations. These years, although we have not lost money by exchanging grain for iron, Daqin is obviously more profitable."

"Although this kind of exchange can make our country Wei rich, it can also make Qin country even richer. Under the circumstances of the ups and downs, our country Wei will never be the opponent of Qin country."

"So, it's right to tear up the covenant with Qin!" Guo Jia said here, his strength was a little weak, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

When Cao Cao heard this, he glanced at the officials with great satisfaction.That seems to be saying, how about it, the king is right, right?

Then, at this time, Guo Jia continued to change his style of painting and said: "But, King Wei, you should never have detained the miners of Daqin. Didn't you detain the miners of Daqin? Didn't you give them a reason to go to war?"

"For those who are present, let me ask the king of Wei, why did you detain these miners?"

Cao Cao didn't seem to understand Guo Jia's meaning, and replied without thinking: "Mining!"

"I am asking the king of Wei, what do you want so much iron ore for? The reason why Qin State wants so much iron ore is because their smelting technology is far superior to that of Wei State. No matter how much iron ore arrives in Qin State, They can all be turned into weapons, into armor!"

"However, with the smelting technology of our country Wei, the iron ore produced by the open-pit mine is completely enough for the country's use?"

"The king of Wei detains these miners, even if they can dig out high-quality mines, is it nothing more than hoarding?"

"Therefore, I thought it was enough to tear up the agreement and not use iron ore as an enemy. There is absolutely no need to detain the Daqin miners and cause war." Guo Jia talked eloquently.

Guo Jia's words can be said to awaken the dreamer.

That's right, when the iron ore is dug out, you have to smelt it into refined iron and then make it into a weapon. This is an industrial chain, and not just miners can solve the problem.

Even if the miners can dig out [-] shi of iron ore in a month, the craftsmen in charge of smelting can only smelt [-] shi. Isn't this a waste of effort in the end?

After a bit of dialing from Guo Jia, Cao Cao realized that the war triggered by the detention of the Daqin miners was meaningless.

"What do you think of Fengxiao?" Cao Cao asked.

"You can send Chen Qun as an envoy to the State of Qin, and after an agreement with the State of Qin, release the detained miners and make peace as soon as possible!" Guo Jia said weakly.

After listening to Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao nodded again and again, and immediately ordered: "Chen Qun, I have sent you as an envoy to Qin State immediately."

After Guo Jia persuaded Cao Cao, he quickly said: "Wei Wang, this battle is not for nothing. At least we have seen the strength of the Qin army."

"I'm afraid that the Qin army already has the power to dominate the world. The reason why the king of Qin didn't move is because the national power can't support the army. Once the national power of the Great Qin becomes strong, it will inevitably unify the whole country."

"Now, when you quickly send people to form an alliance with Shu, the two countries can work together to resist Qin!"
