Chapter 329: The time is not in this battle, after Chibi(1/2)
"no!"
After being silent for a long time, Guo Jia decided to say this to refute Cao Cao's thoughts and stabilize his mind. The current march was too aggressive.
If all naval warships are heading to the Jiangdong battlefield, it means that they must rely heavily on Cai Mao. Once these two people are removed, or have other intentions and try to delay the war, they will have a gap.
Jiangdong's warships have been preparing for many years and have not yet fought. For Jiangdong, this battle is tantamount to a battle to overthrow the country. The army and the people must be united.
There were some words that Guo Jia couldn't say, because they would be too fierce. After all, the officials in Jiangdong were loyal to the Sun family, and they would definitely exaggerate the evil of the Cao family.
In the country, they would never praise anyone who serves the emperor and refuses to obey his orders. They must be talking about the Cao family, a traitor to the Han Dynasty, trying to usurp the Han Dynasty and establish itself.
The same is true for Uncle Liu Huang who lives in Jiangxia.
"Although Sun and Liu's alliance is not powerful, the generals are united; although the weather is not there, the geographical location is favorable, but we are not yet a naval force that is good at fighting. How can we fight with the soldiers and horses from the east of the Yangtze River in the natural chasm of the Yangtze River? This is contrary to the art of war.
.”
"My lord, really want to use troops?!"
Cao Cao was stunned and stared at Guo Jia for a long time. He did not expect that Guo Jia, who had always understood his thoughts best, suddenly became angry and said a word of objection.
The wonderful thing is that in the past, he would cater to his own ideas, so every time he said what he said, he would hit the mark. In the eyes of outsiders, he had always obeyed the advice of this wine priest.
This impression was also created by Cao Cao himself, because he needed someone other than himself who could speak out, so that others wouldn't think he was just talking.
In the past, every time Guo Jia spoke so beautifully, people couldn't find any words to refute. Even if they did, after thinking about it for a while, they would side with Guo Jia.
Therefore, the two of them cooperated very smoothly, but this time, it was completely different from usual.
This made Cao Cao confused for a moment. He didn't know whether Guo Jia didn't realize what he meant, or whether he really felt that he couldn't send troops immediately. But when he looked at Guo Jia's eyes, there was a seriousness in his eyes.
As if on cue.
Then there is no guessing. He really believed that troops should not be sent.
"That's not true," Cao Cao softened a little and retreated to settle down. He was now older, and his side was replaced by Guo Jia instead of Xi Zhong. It was difficult to find a new person.
"However, Jiangdong is in chaos at this time. The calmer they are at this time, the more empty they are inside. Feng Xiao, please think about it, if I were to be assassinated, how would I be able to calm the hearts of the people in Jingzhou and make the local gentry in Jingzhou no longer
Make trouble again?"
This does make sense.
Guo Jia nodded solemnly.
If you put it this way, it is impossible to defeat it.
At this moment, Guo Jia finally understood that he could not persuade the prime minister.
At the beginning, I always thought that if I understood his thoughts, I would be able to continuously make tacit suggestions and suggestions to stabilize the world. However, I never expected that after reaching this point, I gradually had to give in more and more in order to maintain the relationship that the two of them had cultivated over the past few years.
tacit agreement.
No wonder Wen Ruo became more and more cautious in the court and did not dare to say anything. He only focused on sorting out the matters in front of him. That was because he had already seen clearly the future of the Cao family.
Guo Jia felt a sense of coercion in Cao Cao's second words, because his meaning had not changed, but he had just changed his way of saying it.
This means that I took a step back and expressed a different opinion.
So the Prime Minister went one step further and raised the issue again.
At this time, some of the civil and military officials in the hall could see this situation. If Mr. Guo said one more thing about not marching, it would most likely lead to disaster. In the future, he would no longer be holding the position of offering wine.
However, at this time many people thought it was impossible to march.
It's not that he doesn't dare to fight, or that he has enjoyed too much comfort in Jingzhou.
They just simply felt that Jiangdong was not as scattered as they thought.
The Sun family is not what the generals said, it's just that they live in a snail's nest and dare not go out of Jiangdong.
At least Jiangzuo has always produced talented people. Just like countless swords, how do you know it is not a peerless sword before it is unsheathed?
If we really want to fight, we will inevitably give those who watch the theater an excellent opportunity to find another opportunity. Now we are sitting in several states, with millions of people, just farming and saving money.
As long as the people are rich and the army is strong, we can fight at any time.
So, what is the Prime Minister afraid of?!
Guo Jia secretly sighed, nodded in agreement, and then said: "Just now, I didn't understand the reason. My lord is worthy of being the best in the world. Jiangdong must be powerful on the outside and in trouble on the inside. I'm afraid there is discord between the civil and military forces.
If you want to surrender first!"
"There are scholars in his south who are rebelling against each other, and Sun Ce has massacred the nobles to frighten them. From this point of view, the internal people must be after the nobles, and they want to cause chaos. In order to protect the so-called Sun-Liu alliance, they are talking like this."
"And our army has been preparing for a year and is waiting for spring. If we don't use troops and horses, this huge momentum will be wasted!"
"good!"
Only then did a smile reappear on Cao Cao's face. He stood up and patted Guo Jia's shoulders several times, and said with a smile: "That's exactly what it should be."
"Fengxiao's words won my heart deeply!"
"Immediately send an order to the three armies, sacrifice to heaven and reward the army. I will send troops to fight Jiangdong as soon as possible! Flatten Jiangdong and conquer Yangzhou. This will stabilize the south and restore the prosperity of the Han Dynasty!"
"Here!"
When civil and military orders are issued, naturally the civil servants are worried and the generals are excited.
Martial arts die in battle, literature dies in admonishment.
Being able to go to the battlefield means that generals can achieve great success in battle, but they will definitely not be able to get involved in making plans and strategies. Only by going to the battlefield can they have a chance to become famous.
The civil servants were worried.
When they came out of the meeting, everyone had their own thoughts. Zhongde and Fengxiao walked with their brows furrowed and didn't say a word.
But Guo Jia also knew in his heart that the counselor who followed Dong'a was not an easy man. At least in times of chaos, he was known to be a ruthless person who dared to kill horses and people for food.
He is also good at leading troops in battle, and his swordsmanship is not bad.
He must have noticed something, the sense of oppression seemed to be getting more and more intense, and the Lord was much less happy than when Xu Zhen was around.
This cannot be replaced by anyone. In contrast, Xu Zhen could do a lot of things at the beginning. Guo Jia, apart from knowing thoughts, strategies, and knowing people well, could not lead an army to fight.
In this way, he is naturally not as good as Xu Bowen.
What's the rush?!
Guo Jia spent a whole day thinking about this issue.
Finally got some clues.
It should be years.
When the Lord heard that Xiliang had joined Xu Zhen instead of the Cao family and was not a Han Dynasty, he naturally understood Xu Bowen's current popularity.
The powerful ministers under his command were so popular that they even surpassed him, and within Xudu, Ma Chao's father had just been killed.
Even the entire Ma family was condemned and Xiliang was labeled as a traitor. This was not as simple as defeating his troops, but destroying all the efforts and management of the entire family for so many years.
The Ma family has a family of generals passed down from generation to generation. There are three generals guarding the border. Their achievements are not glorious, but they are real hard work.

Not only do you often go hungry at the border, but you also have to face foreign invasions at any time. If you are not careful, your reputation will be ruined. When the princes fight among themselves, they will be defeated by their own people.
Anyone who loses to a foreign tribe will be nailed to the pillar of shame and whipped repeatedly. The generals born in the Ma family over the years have not reached the height of Fenglangjuxu, but they have never been in great chaos.
Moreover, he was one of the great princes who rose rapidly after Dong Zhuo.
Now that he has returned to Xu Zhen, Xu Zhen can focus his troops on Xiliang and become the general who conquers the west.
General Zhengxi!
Guo Jia heard from Cao Cao more than once that this was his ideal when he was young.
He trampled the Western Regions on horseback, then walked on silk, and then received numerous praises, saved the people on the border, and even expanded the territory of the Han Dynasty.
This is the honor of being a minister. If you win the national war, it will be remembered in history for hundreds of years and be preserved in future generations. Who doesn’t want to get to this point?!
But now he is going in the opposite direction. He wants to enter the position of Wei Gong, and may even become the king in the future!
Xu Zhen sat in his most ideal position.
Xiliang is the biggest stepping stone!
The lord will definitely be anxious at this time!
Because if he fights slowly, by the time he takes Jiangdong and destroys Liu Bei, he may be old. What will he use to fight Bowen by then?
How many of the Cao family’s descendants can fight with him?!
He is only thirty-five now.
He is in his prime years, and Xu Bowen is not addicted to wine and sex, and he is never greedy for enjoyment. Therefore, he is in good health. Do you know how many years he has left before he becomes tired?
Thinking about it this way, who is not in a hurry?
If he can't fight, the huge empire in the future will all be attributed to Xu Zhen's eternal achievements, and he can stand on his own and usurp the achievements of these years.
You can also return it to the Han Dynasty and achieve your own fame through the ages.
Now the general trend is in Xu Zhen's hands.
