Chapter 371 Liu Bowen visits Guo Fengxiao.
Liu Bowen set out for Xudu that day, while Li Chen sent troops to Luoyang to rush to tell him that Jia Xu came to the camp to obey orders. At the same time, the Qin army was also working day and night to build rafts.
Liu Bei is a hero of the world, not a general. He has an army of 200,000, and four generals, including Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan.
Liu Bowen didn't know how long Zhang Liao could last, so he went day and night on his way to Xudu, and did not dare to delay for a moment.
Yuzhou, Xudu.
Xu Du is Cao Cao's base camp, just like Xuzhou is Li Chen's base camp. For Cao Cao, it is the center of politics and military.
"Why!"
"Now the Qin army is in the limelight. If he is asked to capture the six counties in Jiangdong, it will be really capable of attacking and retreating and defending, and benefiting the world." Cao Cao sighed and said.
Now, although Yuan Shao went north to attack Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao had almost regained all his lost territory. However, Li Chen was so popular now that Cao Cao knew that this opponent would be ten times and a hundred times difficult to deal with by the Yuan brothers and Liu Bei.
"King of Wei, now Liu Bei is attacking Xiaopei. Let's just wait and see if the King of Qin will withdraw his troops and return to aid."
"If the King of Qin withdraws his troops and returns to the aid, he will not be able to conquer Jiangdong. If the King of Qin does not retreat, his Xiaopei will have to be lost."
"At that time, even if the King of Qin conquered Jiangdong, Liu Bei occupied Zhuo County and Xiaopei, and was placed between us and the King of Qin as a buffer, the Qin army would not be able to defeat us for a while."
"As I said, Liu Bei is not a soft persimmon. Even if the King of Qin defeats Liu Bei, he will not be able to fight with us." Xun Yu chased his beard and said in a deep voice.
"Oh, I hope that's the case!" Cao Cao sighed and said.
Although what Xun Yu said seems to be reasonable and well-founded, if you put such a thing on others, even if you win a battle, it will inevitably damage your vitality and you will definitely not have the power to fight again in a short period of time.
But in Cao Cao's opinion, Li Chen was not like this at all. Li Chen seemed to be getting stronger and stronger as he fought, giving people the feeling of being invincible all the way.
"Wen Ruo, how have Fengxiao been sick these days?" Cao Cao asked Xun Yu with concern.
A few days ago, the war on Cao Cao was urgent, and Guo Jia was already weak, so this fatigue caused him to be completely exhausted.
"Report to King Wei, Fengxiao's illness has improved a little. It is said that these two people have been able to get out of bed." Xun Yu replied.
"It's a good thing to improve, but I can't live without filial piety!" Cao Cao sighed.
Among the princes in the world, Cao Cao not only has a large territory, but also his subordinates also call him the civil servants and the fierce generals as rain. However, among so many civil servants and military generals, the one he likes most is Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.
It can be said that among these civil officials, Cao Cao may not listen to others' words, but he can be said to be obedient to Guo Jia's ideas.
At this time, Cao Cao could always be concerned about the battle situation on the Qin army. Cao Cao hoped that Li Chen would withdraw his troops and counterattack Liu Bei from the bottom of his heart.
As long as Li Chen withdraws his troops, Jiangdong will not be able to fight. Xuzhou is a place of four battles. As long as Li Chen does not have a stable rear, it will inevitably be difficult to achieve great things.
However, if Li Chen was asked to capture the six counties in Jiangdong, the power of the Qin army would be really hard to stop.
Before, Zhuge Liang went to Zhuo County and persuaded Liu Bei to send troops to attack Xiaopei, in an attempt to relieve pressure from Jiangdong.
But as the saying goes, soldiers come to block the enemy, and water comes to block the earth. If Zhuge Liang can convince Liu Bei to send troops to attack Xiaopei, then Liu Bowen may not be able to persuade Cao Cao to send troops to attack Zhuo County.
Zhuge Liang was a perfect tongue, and Liu Bowen was also familiar with the techniques of benefiting the whole world.
When Liu Bowen came to Xudu, he did not go directly to see Cao Cao, but first visited Cao Cao's planner, the famous genius Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.
Liu Bowen can be said to be familiar with human nature. Cao Cao is the kind of suspicious person who would rather let me down than let others down. As Li Chen's counselor, it is extremely difficult for Liu Bowen to win the trust and convince Cao Cao.
Guo Jia is not strong in his body due to his years of drinking, singing and dancing. A few days ago, he was ill a few days ago because of his military work day and night. Now the situation ahead has improved, and Guo Jia is recuperating in the mansion.
"Military, there is a Qin envoy Liu Bowen who asked for a visit outside the door." Guo Jia was lying on the bed to recuperate, and the housekeeper in the mansion hurriedly came in to report.
"Liu Bowen?"
"It's true!" Guo Fengxiao smiled slightly.
Although Guo Jia has been recuperating in the mansion recently, he has not said that he has turned a blind eye to the matter outside the window. Even if he is in the mansion, he knows the general trend of the world. Judging from Guo Jia's expression, he had long expected that Li Chen would send someone to Xudu.
Among the local strategists during the Three Kingdoms period, Guo Jiazhi's talent can be said to be completely inferior to Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang's theory of three-part world helped Liu Bei to win all Xichuan. Similarly, Guo Fengxiao had the theory of ten wins and ten defeats, helping Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao and becoming the number one great prince in the world.
Zhuge Liang is more inclined to be a comprehensive talent, military, politics, diplomacy, and internal affairs. Guo Jia is more like a subject-oriented student. His military talent is particularly outstanding, but in other things, he is not very outstanding.
Guo Jia is good at this person, but the only thing is that he has a short life. Just like the Husky uses IQ to exchange for appearance, Guo Jia's military talent is probably exchanged for life.
The genius is not dead, and the dragon cannot come out. Guo Jia is active in the early stage of the Three Kingdoms, while Zhuge Liang is active in the middle and late stages of the Three Kingdoms.
"Please go to the lobby to do it first. I'll wash it up and go here." Guo Jia ordered.
Guo Jia has been bedridden these days, so he looks a little sloppy. Since he went to meet Liu Bowen, Guo Jia has to sort out and not lose the face of King Wei.
The butler at Guo Jia's mansion took Liu Bowen in first, then asked Liu Bowen to sit down, and hurriedly brought him tea and water.
"Mr. Liu sat first. My military advisor was in poor health. Maybe he would arrive later. You can wait first." The butler said to Liu Bowen.
Because Guo Jia was addicted to alcohol and sex, his body was hollowed out by alcohol. All the big men knew about this. Liu Bowen naturally knew it, so he didn't care much.
Oh, I said why Cao Cao likes Guo Jia so much? The relationship is because both of them are lustful. Maybe they are still "comrades-in-arms".
"Ka! Da! Da!"
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Not long after, a sound of footsteps sounded accompanied by a cough. Liu Bowen knew that it was Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao coming.
"Liu Bowen has met Military Advisor Guo and has long been famous!" Seeing the young man in front of him, Liu Bowen bowed to Guo Jia and said.
"I dare not take it, I dare not take it."
