    Xuchang City, the inner hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

    Cao Cao and Guo Jia sat across the table from each other, looking at the chessboard in front of them without saying a word.  A waiter walked quietly into the hall holding a wooden plate, knelt down beside Cao Cao, and handed over a military report.  Cao Cao took the military report and unfolded it, scanned it quickly, frowned and said: "What the hell, in recent years, news that I don't want to hear always comes during chess games. No wonder it's getting harder and harder for me to get it from Fengxiao.  The game is won.¡±

    "My lord's chess ability is already above the rest, so it's fair to have some disadvantages." Guo Jia slowly lost a piece, and then asked again: "But what's the news from Jingzhou?"

    "Not bad." General Cao Cao handed the report to Guo Jia, then picked up a chess piece from the chess box, pointed it on the chessboard and said: "Sun Ce was able to defeat Jingzhou in just a few years. This little thing really didn't let it go."  I'm disappointed. It's interesting to have such a strong rival in your life."

    "Most of the generals and counselors in Jingzhou come from aristocratic families. They always pay attention to grandeur and strategizing when marching and fighting. They also always believe that deception and trickery are not the right way. No wonder they suffered a big loss at the hands of Sun Ce." Guo Jia  After making a move, he smiled lowly and said, "Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are both quick-witted people. How could they have the patience to discuss chess with these old masters over a cup of tea?"

    "Are you eager for wisdom" Cao Cao said with a smile: "Zhou Yu played the piano by the Han River for half a month, and Sun Ce stayed in Changsha City for almost a month. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like he was eager for wisdom.  .¡±

    "Having a quick brain doesn't mean you have to be quick with your actions. However," Guo Jia changed the topic, "If your brain is slow and your actions are slow, it will be extremely useless."

    "Are Fengxiao talking about Yuan Benchu?" Cao Cao held the chessboard and shook his head: "Thanks to him, the ancestors of the old Yuan family are still the fourth generation and the third prince, but this excellent bloodline is not reflected in Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. They say that their brothers are  Idiots are just afraid of insulting the word idiot."

    Hearing this, Guo Jia nodded, stared at the chessboard and said casually: "Yuan Shao is indeed not a wise monarch."

    In the year after the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao took advantage of Yuan Shao's serious injury to quickly eradicate the hostile forces around him and regain control of Runan, Luoyang and other places. Compared with before the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was already stronger.  There has been a qualitative change.  On Yuan Shao's side, although Yuan Shao regrouped his army and prepared to fight Cao Cao again, he still did not get rid of his old habit of procrastination.  And unlike Cao Cao, whose rear is stable and united, Yuan Shao's backyard can be said to be full of wars. Not to mention his evil intentions, Liu Bei, who is watching on the side, and his own son alone are enough to give Yuan Shao a headache.  During the year, the eldest son's party and the younger son's party respectively cultivated their own strength and fought openly and secretly with each other, making the entire Jizhou city a mess and restless.

    "But at this time, my lord is still not as strong as Yuan Shao." Guo Jia paused, raised his head, and saw Cao Cao frowning, looking thoughtful, and said to reassure him: "My lord, there is no need to worry too much.  , Waste is still waste after all. It is incredible and unimaginable to say that Yuan Benzhu can change in one year."

    "I'm not worried that I won't be able to defeat Yuan Shao." Cao Cao came to his senses, made a move, and said worriedly: "In order to restrain Sun Ce, I forced the young emperor to issue a secret edict written in blood. Now it seems that this move  Those who left were truly inferior. Now people all over the world say that I am 'named as Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, but in reality I am a traitor to the Han Dynasty'. I am the one who put this shit in the country's thief's head."

    "I also advised my lord before." Guo Jia slowly placed a hand on the chessboard, "But lord, you don't have to worry too much. Yuan Shao's crime is worse than that of your lord."

    "How do you say this?" Cao Cao asked in surprise.

    "Yuan Shao attacked Jizhou without the emperor's orders, deceived Han Fu, and betrayed Gongsun Zan. This is his first crime. When Li Jue and Guo Si rebelled, he did not hear from King Qin. This is his second crime. Yuan Shu arrogated the title and cannot be punished.  , these are three crimes." Guo Jiabi pointed his fingers and talked eloquently, "With these three crimes, Yuan Shao is the real Han thief!"

    "A hero should be lonely. I don't really care what people in the world think of me." Although Cao Cao said this, he was quite uninterested. After a hastily dropping a word, Cao Cao said: "Actually,  Compared to Yuan Shao, I am more worried about Liu Bei. This man is not as loyal and innocent as he appears, and his scheming mind is probably beyond my reach. Ever since I secretly formed an alliance with him in Guandu, Liu Bei has still been attached to  Yuan Shao's side has tried his best to make suggestions for Yuan Shao this year, and he is also the peacemaker and mediator in the dispute between the governor and the young of Hebei Province. He looks completely harmless to humans and animals. Is this kind of forbearance something ordinary people can achieve?  Thinking of this, it gives me chills.¡±

    "They are indeed powerful enemies." Guo Jia responded and asked with a smile: "But my lord, Yan Rouxian is here to assist you."Does the state respond internally?  "

    "Don't make fun of me, Fengxiao." Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, and said forcefully: "These incompetent fools are no match for Liu Bei."

    "If it is not treated early, scabies may develop into a serious problem." Guo Jia clicked the chess pieces in the middle of the chessboard. "Liu Bei's scheming is indeed the scary thing, but it is also his biggest weakness. He never  He will tell his subordinates the true intention of what he does. All Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have to do is to obey loyally and bravely. This is a big joke in itself and a taboo in military use. What's more, Liu Bei's strategy is really shocking.  I dare not compliment you."

    Cao Cao's frown gradually relaxed and he nodded slightly: "It makes sense, Feng Xiao's words are very reasonable."

    Hearing this, Guo Jia just smiled faintly, made a gesture and said: "My lord is watching chess, it's your turn to go."

    Cao Cao lowered his head and looked at the chessboard. Guo Jia's piece just now broke through his own center. No matter how skilled he was, there was nothing he could do.  Cao Cao threw the chess pieces back into the chess box, stroked his beard and smiled: "I lost again, but this time I am convinced that I lost, and I feel very comfortable."

    Guo Jia put the chess pieces on the chessboard back into the box and whispered: "Master, what we really need to be afraid of is Sun Ce in the south."

    Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and said: "When Feng Xiao first came to my house, we once commented on the heroes of the world. I remember very clearly that Feng Xiao's evaluation of Sun Ce at that time was: Sun Bofu, a man who charges into battle and defeats the enemy.  He is brave enough, elegant and secular, but not a gentleman enough. Even when I formed an alliance with Sun Ce under Shouchun City, Fengxiao looked down upon him. In just a few years, how could Sun Ce have become Fengxiao?  The person Xiao Xiao fears the most?"

    Guo Jia shook his head and said: "His growth is too fast"

    "When heroes meet, sooner or later, they all hate each other." Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh, "But at this time, Jingzhou Jiangdong has just been settled, and people's hearts are not yet stable. This is a good opportunity for us."

    "Is my lord preparing to use the forces lurking in Jiangdong?"

    "That's right." Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia coldly, "Just a small trick is enough to set off a storm in Jiangdong!"
