three kings

Chapter 183
Guo Jia's thoughts are the same as Xun Yu's, they both think that the most critical moment has come.Although the land in Xuzhou is fertile, the folk customs are weak.There are few strong men in the state, so it is not worth spending effort to manage it.It's not worth fighting against Cao Cao for this.

After all, if Yuan Shao wanted to go south, his first enemy was Cao Cao.

An enemy's enemy is an ally. At this moment, Sun Can has no need to fight with his allies because of a small Xuzhou, a Xuzhou that is of little use.

What's more, there is no harm to them in improving Cao Cao's strength.

If Cao Cao persisted for a moment, they would have more time to prepare for the battle.

Guo Jia's words immediately aroused a wave of echoes from the wise people in the hall.

"Following Xiao's words is the only way to deal with Yuan Shao. Now no one can stop Yuan Shao from unifying the Northland. If you want to defeat Yuan Shao, you must stop the opponent's development while developing. The existence of Cao Cao is just an opportunity for our army. Let him consume Yuan Shao's strength first and buy time for our army. After Cao Cao is defeated, our army will stop Yuan Shao and enter the Central Plains." Zhou Yu said this, although Jiangnan talents have a strong sense of separatism, but After a long period of hearing and seeing, Zhou Yu has corrected his thinking.

Taking control of the Central Plains is indeed the best way to strengthen yourself and end the war.Otherwise, in the Central Plains, there would not be so many heroes staring at it.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Liu Hua suddenly said, "Have you ever thought that Yuan Shao will be defeated by Cao Cao?"

"How is it possible?" Sun Can looked at Liu Hua in amazement, and said, "Cao Cao's current overall strength is not even half of our army. If I want to launch a fierce attack on Cao Cao at this moment, Cao Cao will die within a year." , how could it be possible to beat Yuan Shao?" Of course, this is just a metaphor and will not become a reality.

Indeed, his strength is much stronger than Cao Cao, but one attack and one defense.The defenders will definitely take advantage of it, and in the end even with the help of the bravery of the soldiers and the wisdom of the counselors, they defeated Cao Cao.That was a miserable win, too.At that time, any small force can act wildly on Sun Can's head, and the bigger ones may even wipe out Sun Can's army directly.

All the counselors also looked at Liu Hua in amazement, each wondering how he could say such absurd words.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Liu Hua felt uneasy for a while, and said: "In terms of intelligence, strategy, employment, and knowledge of people, Cao Cao is far better than Yuan Shao, why can't he win?"

The counselors pondered for a while.

Chen Gong said: "Cao Cao is indeed very talented. Wisdom, strategy, determination, and courage are all top choices, but in the face of absolute strength, these things are useless. No matter how talented one is, he cannot defeat Wan with ten people. People? No matter how brave a person is, he can't resist the shooting of tens of thousands of bows and arrows.

After all, a person's strength is limited, and in the face of absolute strength.No matter how high or strong this person's intelligence and strategy are, he can't defeat the opponent unless there is a heaven-sent opportunity. "

Liu Hua's mood at the moment really wanted to dig a hole and get in.At this moment, he realized that he was too dependent on history.

That's right, Cao Cao did beat Yuan Shao in history.But now history has changed. In history, Cao Cao at that time occupied the four prefectures, Si, Yu, Yan, Xu, Huainan, and Wancheng, one place and one city.

However, Cao Cao didn't even have the confidence to fight Yuan Shao. Thanks to Xun Yu's four victories, Jia Xu's four victories, and Guo Jia's conclusion, Cao Cao had the courage to fight Yuan Shao.

At the beginning of the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao still lost nine out of ten battles, and he himself did not have the confidence to fight on.He didn't listen to anyone's words, and wanted to retreat instead of fighting.

Fortunately, a letter from Xun Yu arrived at this time. The letter pointed out that Cao Cao must fight this battle, and also said, "When the situation is exhausted, there will be changes. This is a rare time, so don't miss it!" Soon after, the situation in the fighter plane changed drastically, and Xu You's defection occurred.In the end, Cao Cao really defeated Yuan Shao with a trick and won a brilliant victory.

Achieved once, the classic battle of conquering more with less.

There is no doubt that the three heroes of the Battle of Guandu.First, Xu You, who controlled the battle situation; second, Xun Yu, who predicted the enemy thousands of miles away and had no doubts about winning; third and fourth, Jia Xu who persuaded Cao Cao to send troops to Wuchao.

Now two of the three major heroes of Guandu are under Sun Can's command, and there is another Xu You who is not sure whether he will vote for Cao Cao. Even Guo Jia, the confidant and adviser Cao Cao relies on, is not by Cao Cao's side.

It is indeed very unpredictable whether Cao Cao can win the battle of Guandu at this moment.

Today, the situation has changed so much that it is indeed no longer possible to consider things in historical terms.

Guo Jia knew Liu Hua very early, and admired Liu Hua's inexplicable things. Knowing that he would not speak lies, he pondered quietly for a while, and said: "Mr. Perhaps, Cao Cao is indeed superior. If it weren't for the presence of the lord, Jia would undoubtedly vote for Cao Cao. There are also many capable people under his command, among them Xi Zhicai and Xun You are not inferior to Jia. Cheng Yu, Liu Ye, Man Chong, Mao Jie, Dong Zhao, and others are all geniuses in the world.

If there is anyone in the world who can defeat Yuan Shao, besides the lord, Cao Cao is the only one. " Then Zhan Yan smiled and said: "Even if Cao Cao wins, so what?He won't survive without a soldier, will he survive with a general?

As long as at that time, our army surprises Xudu to destroy Cao Cao, we can also use the results of Cao Cao's battle to unify the North. "

Although everyone knew that the possibility of this happening was very small, they couldn't help laughing.

Sun Can couldn't help laughing when he saw that the civil and military soldiers under his command were getting along so harmoniously, thinking: "With them here, how can I, Sun Can, be afraid of Yuan Shao's 40 troops."

After laughing, Sun Can said: "In that case, it's fine if Pengcheng doesn't take it. However, Lu Bu is a man of superb martial arts and superb riding skills. If he falls into the enemy's tent and helps the enemy train cavalry to fight against our army, it will be a disaster. had to be removed."

All the generals said yes in unison.

At this time, Chen Deng stepped forward and said: "At this moment, Lu Bu must have known about Gongtai's joining our army, and should also be aware of his own predicament.

Deng felt that the pursuit should not be too tight.Guangling has a vast area, if Lu Bu escapes alone, we will never be able to find him.It's better to give him a way out and let him throw himself into the trap. "

Chen Deng was very familiar with Xuzhou. He walked up to the map and said, "Now, he doesn't know about Xuzhou. Therefore, the only place he can go is Pengcheng. From Deng's point of view, our army should go south to search for it, so that Lu Bu feels If there is an opportunity, they will go to Pengcheng, while our army will secretly ambush in Huaiyin.

Huaiyin is the only way to go to Pengcheng, and you can definitely wait for Lu Bu here. "
