Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland

After a brief pause, Tianmu also began to introduce Jia Xu.

Mainly introduce why Jia Xu was called a poisonous scholar?

[The animated video we just made is just a joke. ]

[The main point I want to express is that Jia Xu's scheme is very vicious and frightening. ]

[So what did this one of the most famous strategists in the late Han Dynasty do? ]

[So much so that he was called the Poison Scholar, and his vicious schemes and his name of the Poison Scholar have been passed down to this day. ]

[Jia Xu, courtesy name Wenhe, resigned from his post and returned home when he was young due to poor health.]

[On the way, they encountered a group of Di tribe bandits causing chaos. The team was robbed and all the people traveling with them were killed.]

[Jia Xu was quick-witted and shouted: "Ask these enemies if they know who my grandfather is?"]

[While the enemies were stunned, Jia Xu continued to make up a story, saying that his grandfather was the imperial general Duan Xing.]

[If you let me go, my grandfather will definitely reward you handsomely, but if you kill me, you will be met with bloody revenge.]

[Duan Yu fought on the frontier for many years, pacified the foreign tribes on the northwest border, and made great military achievements, with exaggerated military records.]

[The Di people were both afraid and in awe of Duan Xing.]

【Thus, Jia Xu survived the massacre this time, and he was the only one who was not killed. 】

[Even these Di people made an oath with Jia Xu to send him back to his hometown]

[Later, Jia Xu joined the Xiliang Army and, along with Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu, participated in the war between the Guandong coalition and Dong Zhuo, and performed well.]

[It was during his time in the Xiliang Army that Jia Xu formally demonstrated his talent for making plans.]

[Soon after, Dong Zhuo and Niu Fu were killed one after another, and the entire Xiliang army was leaderless. ]

【Wang Yun, who controls the imperial court, is preparing to liquidate the remaining members of Dong Zhuo's forces. 】

[The remaining leaders of the Xiliang army, Li Jue and Guo Si, were both in a state of panic and planned to flee directly back to their hometown in Xiliang.]

[If this is the case, the entire Xiliang military group will completely collapse. ]

[As a member of the Xiliang Army, Jia Xu will naturally be the target of the court's crackdown and liquidation. I'm afraid he will suffer the consequences.]

【So Jia Xu stopped Li and Guo and explained the pros and cons to them.】

[“If you abandon the army and flee back to Xiliang now, any village headman will be able to capture you and ask the court for a reward. It is better to gather the army and counterattack Chang'an.”]

[“Only when we have a large army will the imperial court be wary of us.”]

[“In order to strengthen morale, we need to lie to the soldiers and tell them that the imperial court intends to kill all the Xiliang troops, from generals to soldiers. If you want to survive, follow the two generals and attack Chang’an together.”]

[“If we really can’t take Chang’an, it won’t be too late to run away then.”]

【Li Jue and Guo Si, who accepted Jia Xu's suggestion, quickly gathered more than 10 remnants of the Western Liang Army by coaxing and intimidating them. The powerful Western Liang Army attacked Chang'an in one fell swoop! 】

【During this period, the Xiliang army and Lu Bu's imperial army fought fiercely, and the flames of war spread to all directions.】

【The people of Chang'an were devastated and their lives were in tatters. 】

【The capital of the Han Empire was destroyed.】

[After Chang'an was captured, many court officials were killed, and countless civilians were killed or injured.]

[Even the emperor was held hostage by Li Jue and Guo Si.]

[The Han Dynasty was almost dissolved.]

【This incident is the famous Wenhe Luanwu. 】

[During the Wenhe and Wu periods, the entire Guanzhong region was engulfed in flames, production was destroyed, famine broke out, and later on, even the common people ate each other to death! ]

【The person who planned and caused this incident was Jia Xu. 】

【This is the viciousness of his scheme! 】

……

Outside the sky.

When Liu Bei saw this, he felt very upset.

Although Liu Bei witnessed the incident of Wenhe's chaos and Wu's rebellion with his own eyes.

Many years have passed.

But that day the incident was brought up again.

Thinking of the Han capital being captured and the emperor falling into the control of vulgar warriors.

The imperial court lost all its dignity.

The people in the entire Guanzhong region were living in dire straits, and some even resorted to cannibalism.

Think of this.

Liu Bei still couldn't help but think about what happened so many years ago.

And burst into tears!
"Jia Wenhe, Jia Wenhe, you really deserve the title of a poisoner!"

Even Zhuge Liang, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh.

Slowly.

Some said with a heavy heart:
"Although it was indeed unwise for Wang Situ to pursue Dong Zhuo's remnants relentlessly before he had fully reorganized his forces."

"And Jia Xu also offered advice in order to protect himself and to save his life in troubled times."

"But we have to say that his vicious plan was indeed very damaging to the Han Dynasty."

"Otherwise, Dong Zhuo had already died during that period, and the princes of Guandong would not have dared to openly violate the court."

"The emperor is the leader, Wang Yun is in power, Lu Bu is his lackey, and other ministers assist him."

"Not to mention completely reviving the Han Dynasty, but there is a chance to reorganize the government."

"After the Wenhe Rebellion, countless people in Guanzhong were killed and injured, and the majesty of the court was gone." "The world..." Zhuge Liang said solemnly:
"We have completely entered an era of warlords fighting for power."

Tianmu also continued to introduce several other vicious schemes of Jia Xu.

[Although Jia Xu had made great contributions, he refused the rewards from Li Jue and Guo Si.]

[He also modestly stated that he only did it to save his life and that he had no merit.]

[But in fact, Jia Xu could not stand the vulgarity of Li Jue and Guo Si, and realized that the conflict between them in power struggle and internal fighting was irreconcilable.]

【Knowing that they would have difficulty accomplishing anything, I took the initiative to distance myself from them. 】

[On the contrary, he coordinated several times, protected many ministers, and helped the emperor. ]

【And find a chance to leave. 】

[After several twists and turns, Jia Xu came to Zhang Xiu, a former Xiliang army leader who was in urgent need of counselors.]

【Zhang Xiu also thought highly of Jia Xu, and even treated him as a descendant.】

[In Wancheng, Zhang Xiu formed an alliance with Liu Biao of Jingzhou, stationed troops in Wancheng with Liu Biao as his backup, and became a major threat to Cao Cao.]

Cao Cao naturally could not tolerate such a threat behind him, so he attacked Zhang Xiu.

【Seeing that Cao Cao was good at using troops and had a large army, Jia Xu suggested that Zhang Xiu surrender first and see how things would turn out.】

[As a result, after Cao Cao entered Wancheng without a fight, he became arrogant and unreasonable, and flirted with Zhang Xiu's aunt Zou.]

【Zhang Xiu was dissatisfied with Cao Cao's attitude, so he sought out Jia Xu for conspiracy.】

【And Jia Xu also came up with another plan. 】

[Jia Xu first asked Zhang Xiu to ask: Boss Cao, I plan to hand over the city to you and the army will be relocated, so I need to inform you.]

[Boss Cao: Sure, sure.]

[Zhang Xiu: Boss Cao, our army is poor, and our chariots are small. They can't even carry cargo. When we move, can we take our weapons and put on our armor? ]

[Boss Cao: I’m busy. It’s ok. ]

[So Zhang Xiu's army, armed with sharp weapons, drove chariots, passed by Cao's camp in broad daylight, and then launched a surprise attack! They defeated Cao's army! ]

[Cao Cao suffered heavy losses and almost died in Wancheng.]

[And Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, was also killed in this night raid. ]

[The famous online historical allusion, one shot killed three wise men, also comes from this. 】

[After Cao Cao returned, he reorganized his troops and went south to attack Zhang Xiu again the following year.]

【However, because Yuan Shao was preparing to send troops to attack Cao Cao's headquarters, Cao Cao withdrew his troops. 】

【At this time, Zhang Xiu received support from Liu Biao and planned to pursue Cao Cao. 】

【But Jia Xu said that we should not chase after them, as it would certainly fail. 】

【This time, Zhang Xiu did not listen to Jia Xu's advice and forcibly pursued Cao Cao. 】

[As a result, Cao Cao personally cut off the retreat, and Zhang Xiu's military tactics were no match for Cao Cao. He was easily defeated and had to retreat.]

【But at this moment, Jia Xu took the initiative to suggest Zhang Xiu. 】

[It says that although the army has retreated, it must immediately pursue Cao Cao. If it pursues him now, it will surely win.]

Zhang Xiu was very puzzled and asked: "Before, I didn't follow your advice and pursued Cao Cao forcefully, so I suffered a crushing defeat. Now that I have retreated, why do I want to pursue him again?"

[Although he was not quite sure about Jia Xu's thinking, Zhang Xiu decided to give it a try.]

【Zhang Xiu then gathered his defeated troops and pursued Cao Cao with a group of demoralized troops. 】

[As a result, Cao's army was defeated and a lot of supplies were plundered.]

[After this battle, Cao Cao did not dare to provoke Zhang Xiu again for a while.]

[Cao Cao's next focus will be on fighting against Yuan Shao's group.]

【At this time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the two largest warlord groups, were trying to win Zhang Xiu over to join their camps.】

【Originally, Zhang Xiu wanted to join Yuan Shao's camp. 】

[After all, Yuan Shao's power was huge at that time, much stronger than Cao Cao's. ]

【However, Jia Xu suggested that Zhang Xiu surrender to Cao Cao. 】

[And explained: Yuan Shao is very powerful now, and we will not be taken seriously if we go to Yuan Shao now. ]

[Cao Cao has the emperor at his disposal, and he commands the princes. However, Cao Cao is currently weak, and if we submit to him, it would be like sending timely help, and we will certainly be treated well by him.]

[And in order to use us as an example and show his stance to other small princes, Cao Cao will definitely let go of his previous grudges. ]

【So Zhang Xiu followed Jia Xu's advice and chose to join Cao Cao between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.】

[Cao Cao was indeed very happy and gave Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu very high treatment.]

[After joining Cao Cao's camp, Jia Xu also came up with another brilliant plan during the period when Cao Cao and Ma Chao were fighting for the Guanzhong region.]

[Ma Chao was known as the mighty general, and his Xiliang cavalry was extremely powerful. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao even lamented: "If Ma Chao doesn't die, I will have no place to bury him."]

[Although the historical facts are not so exaggerated, the expedition to Xiliang was definitely very difficult. 】

[Jia Xu has a good understanding of human nature and knows the nature of the Xiliang Army.]

【Use a counter-espionage tactic. 】

[He alienated Ma Chao and Han Sui, causing the two allied warlords to become suspicious of each other, and Cao Cao seized the opportunity and ultimately achieved a decisive victory.]

【Cao Cao was also able to pacify Guanzhong in one fell swoop. 】

[These strategies are the reason why Jia Xu is called a poisonous scholar. ]

[So what do you think, is Jia Xu a ruthless scholar? ] (End of this chapter)
