    After spending a few days of happy and relaxing time with his parents, master and uncle, grandfather Ao, his three wives, and Xiao Liu Kun, Ao Lie turned his attention back to military expansion and war preparations.  After preliminary work, Xun Yu and other core ministers have distributed part of the conscription funds to local governments through the Military and Government Affairs Offices. The next step is to raise the subsequent conscription funds at the same time as the first phase of conscription.  The smooth progress of the work of Xun Yu and others is inseparable from the financial and food assistance provided by Liu Ba. Liu Ba's ability to control the national economy has once again been highlighted.  While preparing to expand the army, Ao Lie asked Zhuge Liang, who had returned to Jizhou, to do a good job in defense of the Central Plains area, and sent a large number of shadow members into the Central Plains, once again scattered throughout the Central Plains to spy on the movements of Cao Cao's army.  Because last time in order to buy time for the army and delay Cao Cao's march into Jizhou, all the thousands of shadow members scattered in the Central Plains had been exposed, so Ao Lie could only ask Li Ru to select a group of shadow members again.  Lurking into Cao Cao's territory.  When Ao Lie ordered the mobilization of shadow members, Li Ru mentioned something that surprised Ao Lie.  I don¡¯t know if you still remember that when the Shadow members successively assassinated fifteen capable ministers under Cao Cao in Xuchang, it happened that Guo Jia, Cao Cao¡¯s first think tank at the time, was seriously ill and was about to die young. He was killed by Li Ru  The shadow members assigned to assassinate Guo Jia did not kill Guo Jia at that time. Instead, they took the seriously ill Guo Jia out of Xuchang City and handed it over to Li Ru and Tian Feng. After the two together, they decided to take Guo Jia away.  Jia was brought back to Yanjing, where Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing would treat him, hoping that Guo Jia would be grateful and switch to Ao Lie's service.  Of course, if Guo Jia failed to survive the joint treatment of the two miracle doctors, it would be his destiny; but the reality is.  Guo Jia's illness was cured by two miracle doctors, but Guo Jia was unwilling to switch to Ao Lie's command. Li Ru tried to persuade Guo Jia many times, but Guo Jia never changed his original intention and just agreed.  He would not return to Cao Cao's camp to repay Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing for their life-saving grace, but he would not join the Northern Han camp even if he died.  After trying all kinds of persuasion to no avail.  Li Ru had no choice but to report the matter to Ao Lie, who would decide what to do with Guo Jia.  When Ao Lie heard the whole story and learned that the genius Guo Jia was in Yanjing, he immediately felt the desire to meet this genius.  Even if he couldn't regain this genius, at least he wouldn't have any regrets in Ao Lie's heart.  What's more, Ao Lie believed it.  With Guo Jia's intelligence, he must have already seen clearly the direction of the world. It is not difficult to convince him. What is difficult is how to get him to overcome the psychological obstacles and stand on the opposite side of the old master Cao Cao.  Under the leadership of Li Ru, Ao Lie came to the room where Guo Jia temporarily lived.  After signaling Li Ru to leave temporarily with his eyes, Ao Lie stretched out his right hand and knocked twice on the door gently.  In the room, Guo Jia's angry voice made it clear that his old illness no longer existed: "I said Wenyou, are you still going to let me live? You come to harass me every two days. Didn't I promise not to reply again?"  Are you in Duke Cao's camp? What else do you want" When Guo Jia opened the door, he saw that it was not Li Ru but Ao Lie who was standing outside.  A trace of complicated emotions appeared on his face. He stared blankly at Ao Lie for ten breaths before he said, "It turns out that the regent is here in person. If the regent is here to persuade Jia to serve,  Please don't talk too much." Ao Lie chuckled and argued: "Fengxiao guessed it right, I'm here to persuade you to surrender.  The loss will be greater than Gu's loss, so Gu advises Fengxiao to make a decision after listening to Gu's words. "Just kidding, Ao Lie is the authentic successor of Guigu Thirteen Chapters, and Zongheng Lun is a practitioner.  How could Guo Jia, a very talented person, be pushed back with just a few words?  "Oh? But I don't know what the regent just said, where is Jia's loss?" Guo Jia was aroused by Ao Lie's unconventional tricks and couldn't help but ask.  With a smile on his face, Ao Lie pointed towards the room behind Guo Jia and said, "Aren't Fengxiao going to invite Gu, the lobbyist, to come in and sit down?" Hearing this, Guo Jia turned sideways and made way for a path leading into the room.  On the way, he curled his lips and said: "Come in if you want to. Anyway, you are the master, I am just a prisoner." Stepping into the room, Ao Lie sat down firmly on a chair, taking his time.  He picked up the teapot from the table, slowly poured tea into a teacup, then put down the teapot, and then said to Guo Jia: "I have heard for a long time that Fengxiao is a prodigy, known as a ghost. I would like to ask for advice.  "Fengxiao, can you tell something from the tea in front of you?" Guo Jia snorted disdainfully and said in a deep voice: "The regent wanted to express his gratitude by pouring the tea just now."Wake me up, will the kindness of a drop of water be repaid by a spring of water?  If this is the case, please ask the regent to take back Jia's life.  Ao Lie shook his head and said with a smile: "That's not what I meant. It's Fengxiao who got it wrong."  Even if Gu wants to take your life back, I'm afraid you may not be willing to give it to Gu. Are these great rivers and mountains and the world of mortals really something you can give up if you say you can?  If you can, then you are not the prodigal Guo Fengxiao.  Fengxiao was a romantic and talented man, and he must have had a deep understanding of the tea ceremony.  When gentlemen drink tea, they call it tasting, and when gentlemen drink tea, they call it drinking. But if a reckless man drinks tea, it is just to quench his thirst, and he has no sense of the artistic conception of drinking tea.  The same is true for tea tasting, and the same is true for the general trend of the world.  Today, all the vassal kings and princes in the world have disappeared. Only Cao Mengde and Gu stand side by side in the world.  There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Sooner or later, Gu and Cao Mengde will have to fight to decide who will rule the world.  This is just like the tea ceremony. Those princes who were wiped out as soon as they appeared are like reckless men who don't know the taste of this fragrant tea in the world. Cao Mengde is slightly better than them and has been surviving in troubled times.  Up to now, he can be regarded as a scholar corresponding to the tea ceremony; and the one who is most likely to taste the world is Gu!  This is the taste of Gu Cong's tea. I wonder if Fengxiao agrees?  " Guo Jia frowned and thought for a while, then said slowly: "You want to say that Duke Cao is like a scholar, talented, but in the end he cannot win the world because he is not a gentleman.  And you, you govern the country with a gentleman's heart.  He has won the support and love of the people all over the world, so he is the one most likely to win the world together?  " Ao Lie nodded unceremoniously and spit out two words from his mouth: "Of course!  " The initial look of disdain on Guo Jia's face gradually disappeared, and he sighed with some emotion: "Yes, you are indeed better than Mr. Cao in this regard.  so.  I have no doubt that in the contest between you and Duke Cao, you have a greater chance of winning.  But what does this have to do with me?  I have promised Wenyou that I will not return to Duke Cao's camp. Now I just want to be an idle cloud and wild crane.  Just spend this life without restraint.  " "You are wrong.  I am born with talents that will be useful. Isn¡¯t it a pity to devote myself to filial piety and learn what I have learned instead of thinking about benefiting the people?  As far as I know, Fengxiao came from a poor family. In his early years, his family was in poverty and suffered from hunger and cold.  Isn't this what you want to change?  Not just you.  Everyone who has suffered wants to change their embarrassing situation.  Since we have abilities that ordinary people do not have, we must let our abilities shine and help more people who are suffering from hunger and cold get out of trouble. This is the ultimate goal of our martial arts training, don't you think?  "Ao Lie slowly and methodically guided Guo Jia. Under Ao Lie's guidance, Guo Jia fell silent. He lowered his head and said nothing, thinking over Ao Lie's words in his heart. Ao Lie did not urge Guo Jia.  After giving him enough time to think, Guo Jia finally broke the silence. He pointed to his left chest and said to Ao Lie, "What you said is correct. I lived in Yanjing during this time.  I also know something about the people here.  To tell the truth, you are a wise master.  It's a pity that my heart is not as broad as yours, this is my place.  The shadow of Mr. Cao has been left behind, and it is difficult to imprint the imprint of others.  " Ao Lie stood up, reached out and patted Guo Jia's right chest, and said slowly: "Some people's hearts are on the right side, such as Zhang Yide and Cao Mengde.  Therefore, nothing in the world is static and can be changed. It just depends on whether you have the courage to make changes.  What's more, your heart should not belong to anyone except you, but to those who need your help and need you to lead them out of trouble.  " Another period of silent thinking. Guo Jia finally lowered his arms helplessly, looked directly at Ao Lie, and said word by word: "You win.  I really can't bear to die, especially after being so close to death.  But I have one condition. If you agree, I will serve you wholeheartedly.  Together with you, we will bring those who want to get out of trouble and need us to help them out of difficulty.  "In fact, under the repeated persuasion of Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, Li Ru and Guo Jia's two saviors, the ice in Guo Jia's heart has already melted, and Ao Lie's roundabout way of persuading him today.  , became the last force to break the ice in his heart, and Guo Jia finally opened his heart to Beihan. Ao Lie showed a comfortable smile and said with a chuckle: "No need to say more about Fengxiao.  I understand what you mean.  I will never force you to be a direct enemy of Duke Cao.  " Seeing that Ao Lie had revealed what he was thinking, Guo Jia smiled in relief, took two steps back, bowed to Ao Lie and said, "Your Majesty, Guo Jia, comes to see the King of Yan.  " Being a monk halfway does not mean that you will not achieve amazing achievements. Guo Jia can be said to be the last core member to join Ao Lie, but in the futureThe great contribution he made in opening up and expanding the territory of the Northern Han Dynasty and sweeping across the eight wastelands and Liuhe was not much inferior to that of Zhuge Liang and others. Therefore, later generations placed Guo Jia in the same important position as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others.  Together they are called the "all-rounders".  With Guo Jia's formal surrender, the gathering of talents from all directions has been completed, and good stories have been spread one after another in the future.  PS: PS: In fact, Da Kun could have done two updates today, but the network was too weak. The upload continued from 10:30 to 11:52, and the upload failed all the time. Da Kun was so angry that he wanted to cry without tears, and he delayed everyone again.  It's time, I'm so sorry.
