The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 311 The Movement of Jingzhou
The capital, Xu capital, Guo Jia's mansion.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Severe coughing sounds almost resounded through the entire backyard of Guo Jia's mansion. This sick child who is usually willing to laugh and play, now seems to be terminally ill, leaning lazily on the bed On the other side, his pale face was like flour, and he was almost invisible. Only when he coughed violently, would he produce such a trace of flushing, as if he had regained some indifferent vitality, but when he stopped Afterwards, his demeanor became even worse than before.

Being terminally ill may not be Guo Jia's current state, but it is not much worse.

"Cough~~!" With a heavy bang, a mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out of Guo Jia's mouth, and the maid at the side hurried up to wipe it with a brocade handkerchief, but he weakly raised his hand to stop it.

"You look like death. You are really jealous of talents." With a faint sigh, I saw an old man with a dark face and a bitter melon face, supporting a walking stick, walking in When he entered Guo Jia's room, he was not polite, as if he had come to his own home, he immediately found a soft couch and sat down, squinting his eyes as deep as the mouth of a well, and fixedly looked at Guo Jia who was lying on the bed. Jia, the meaning is profound, as if he doesn't know what he is thinking.

Guo Jia didn't seem to care about the old man's arrival, or he seemed to have expected the old man's arrival a long time ago. He glanced at the uninvited old man lightly, and slowly smiled on his white face. A helpless smile appeared.

"Is the sky jealous of talents? Who says it's not? You, an old dog, can live to this day. It's ridiculous that Guo is not yet [-] years old. He is going to die here. God is really unfair."

"There's no such thing as fair or unfair." Jia Xu sighed, and said, "I'm happy with my situation, don't fight or grab, don't grab, don't take it, live on my own one-third of an acre of land, God naturally won't notice me , it’s just that the more attention-grabbing a young man like you is, the easier it is for the heavens to look at you. It’s a pity that it’s too late for you to change now, otherwise, with your wisdom, you want to live a better life than the old man For a long time, it is not impossible."

Guo Jia turned his head, hummed heavily, and said, "You came here just to make fun of me, didn't you?"

Jia Xu was amused when he heard the words, although it was not obvious, but he could still see that he was smiling.

"Sarcasm? This old man never does things that offend others. He just expresses his feelings after seeing you now. If you don't want to listen, we can talk about something else."

"Then let's talk about something else." Guo Jia straightened his body, turned his head and looked at Jia Xu with piercing eyes, and said, "A few days ago, there was news that my lord fought with Yuan Shang in Guanzhong, and was arrested due to bad luck. Yuan Shang and Ma Teng teamed up to defeat, the situation is critical, Guo doesn't understand, why don't you go to Guanzhong with the lord? With your ability, if you go, the lord may not suffer such a disastrous defeat!"

Jia Xu was expressionless, and said indifferently: "There is no way, the situation is like this, there is no way to force it, the lord will leave the old man in Xudu, and the old man can only let the lord arrange it, that's all."

"You!" Guo Jia heard a sullen breath welling up in his chest, almost coughing again, and said angrily, "My lord didn't ask you to go, so why didn't you take the initiative to invite me!"

Jia Xu shook his head lightly, and said, "I have never done the four words of taking the initiative to ask for a job, and I don't have that habit."

"Cough cough cough!" Hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't hold back any longer, so he could only lower his head and cough vigorously.

"You selfish old dog" After coughing, Guo Jia gave Jia Xu a hard look, and said very angry words in his mouth.

Jia Xu didn't care about it, and continued: "Besides, in today's Xudu, although Xun Yu has the full power to preside over the political affairs, there is no one to take care of the external affairs. You are seriously ill and are bedridden. At the critical moment, If there is no old man to preside over the situation, how can Xudu be stable?"

Guo Jia smiled disdainfully when he heard the words, and said: "What you said is simple. From beating the lord and leading the troops to the west, what major event has happened? Not to mention that you, an old dog, came out to preside over the situation!"

Jia Xu closed his eyes slightly again, and said, "Maybe it wasn't there before, but something will happen soon."

Guo Jia was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said, "Who are you talking about?"

"It seems that your serious illness has seriously affected your wisdom. You can't figure out such a simple truth?" Jia Xu smiled lightly, teasing Guo Jia with clouds and mist.

Guo Jia thought for a while, then seemed to be stunned, then waved his hand and said: "What is it about Guo, so you are referring to this. Liu Biao from Jingzhou, right? Hmph, it's just a mediocre person, so what's so scary? Do you think Liu Biao has the guts?"

Jia Xu shook her head lightly, and sighed: "Liu Biao may not have enough courage, but you have forgotten one person, that is Liu Bei. With this person, Liu Biao may not be able to persuade Liu Biao to take the opportunity to enter the army."

Guo Jia waved his hands impatiently, and said: "Although Liu Bei is a hero, but he has no strong generals under his command but no wise men, even if he came, it is nothing to be afraid of, what's the point."

Jia Xu sighed and said, "Maybe it was like this before, but now it's different. Liu Bei has an extra Zhuge Liang. If the old man's information is correct, this Zhuge Liang is an extraordinary person. Also known as Fulongfengchu, the two of them will have peace in the world! Being promoted by famous scholars in Jingchu, these people are under Liu Bei's command, I am afraid that from then on, Liu Bei will be like a dragon entering the sea, and a tiger returning to the mountain, no matter how uncomfortable it is for ordinary people. It's limited."

Guo Jia was stunned when he heard the words, and said, "What do you mean? The Jingzhou side will definitely take action."

Jia Xu nodded and said, "There must be."

"What should I do?"

Jia Xu heard the words and said: "If you are in good health, the old man will ignore this matter, and naturally teach you young people to do it, but now you are seriously ill, and Xun Yu is so devoted to internal affairs that he has no time to take care of it. It’s hard for the old man not to think about it, but the old man usually speaks lightly, and he was once a surrender, so I’m afraid it’s hard to convince the public, so we must have your support before we can do things.”

Guo Jia was immediately happy when he heard the words: "So you came here today for this purpose? You need Guo's help, right? Well, Guo also wants to see how powerful you, an old fox, will be when you make a move! It's just a matter of time to see you today. The elegant demeanor of this poisonous man, hahahahaha~~cough cough cough~~!"

Jia Xu sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said, "Young man, relax your temper and disposition, and laugh nonsense when you encounter something, or you will cough to death."

**********************
As for Jingzhou, as Jia Xu said, Liu Biao took Cai Mao and Zhang Yun as the chief and deputy governors, and led Jingzhou's elite infantry. Taking advantage of the unfavorable situation of Cao Cao's westward expedition, Liu Biao quickly sent troops to Xudu, intending to capture Xuchang.In Cai Mao's army, Liu Bei and others also followed the army and were regarded as partial generals and obeyed their command.

Liu Bei didn't care about this, he was respectful all the way, and he followed Cai Mao's order, so Cai Mao, who was wary of him, unknowingly relaxed his vigilance against Liu Bei, and began to think wholeheartedly about how to capture Xu All.

In Cai Mao's mind, now that Cao Cao is not here, Xuchang is empty. With the troops under his command, he wants to break Xuchang City and welcome the emperor back. It can be said that it is a certainty. There is no suspense at all. It just depends on the time That's all.

After the soldiers and horses traveled for a while, on this day, when Cai Mao stopped his army to rest and contemplate how to attack Xuchang, Liu Bei came to greet him with his armor ready.

"Liu Bei, the last general, met Governor Cai!"

Although being called Dudu is very frequent on weekdays, Cai Mao's mentality seems to be sick. Every time he hears Liu Bei calling him that, he feels extraordinarily comfortable and happy, but when he sees him, he immediately straightens his back and makes a gesture. As if putting on a show, he gave Liu Bei a hand, and said: "Xuande doesn't need to be polite, you came just in time, and I was thinking about how to attack Xuchang. I have already thought about everything else, and only the vanguard officer is here. I haven't thought about it properly for the time being, but you just came here, but you are helping the general to give advice."

"No!" After Liu Bei finished speaking, he strode to the sand table and Pitu in Cai Mao's tent, took a serious look, and said, "The governor is really using his troops to his heart. The arrangement is really careful. Not a single omission and disadvantage!"

"Hahaha, Xuande is over the top! It's not as good as you said, and it's all flawed." Cai Mao was really happy to be praised by Liu Bei.

"Xuande, then who do you think should take up the post of vanguard officer?"

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "If the governor doesn't dislike it, and Bei is willing to take up this position, I don't know what the governor thinks?"

Cai Mao was startled when he heard the words, pondered over and over in his heart, thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "This...is a bit too dangerous, Xuande is a brother of the lord's clan, his status is different from other generals, vanguards and other dangerous things, Or don't do it well."

Liu Bei felt a little happy in his heart, and secretly thought that it was as Kong Ming said, Cai Mao would never give himself the slightest chance to make meritorious deeds, lest I cover up his limelight, but fortunately this is the case, so he can continue to talk about it.

"Commander, if Bei doesn't go to be a vanguard, he spends his days in the camp with nothing to do, and if my elder brother finds out, I'm afraid I'll be blamed for my laziness and covetousness, making it difficult for Bei to do well! A little chance, make some meager contributions, and go back so I can explain to my brother, don’t you think so?”
