    (Thank you to the alliance! Thank you Zhao Wuxie 2014, UG, Zheng Qijin, Just Love a Little Star, Good Baby 555) In the next half month, Guo Jia visited Zhang Zhao, Qin Song, Chen Duan,  Li Shu, Sun Jing, Wu Jing, Yu Fan and other leading factions.  :/The status of these people is not low. Needless to say, Zhang Zhao was the most important minister in Jiangdong, Qin Song was the chief secretary during Sun Ce's era, Chen Duan was the postal governor, and Yu Fan was the county magistrate. They were all important advisers to Sun Ce.  Li Shu once served as the governor of Lujiang, and Sun Jing and Wu Jing were both Sun Quan's elders. No one was insignificant.  After convincing these people, Sun Quan had no choice but to surrender.  Of course, the generals cannot ignore it. Trying to transform hostile forces into neutral forces is also a victory.  After all the running around, Guo Jia and Liu Wan finally paid off.  Cheng Pu's attitude relaxed, Huang Gai's thoughts were wavered, and Lu Meng was also tempted.  Guo Jia analyzed it and found that there were reasons why these three people wavered.  Cheng Pu was a native of Youzhou, Youbeiping. He came from the same origin as the Dragon and Wolf Army. Fighting and peace were the norm in the Three Kingdoms.  Because Huang Gai was old enough and had a hot temper, he often clashed with the rising star Zhou Yu.  This kind of thing will happen in any force, so it's not surprising.  Lu Meng, on the other hand, is very utilitarian, active in thinking, and very restless.  If you lure them with benefits, you will never be tempted.  The reason why Guo Jia achieved such good diplomatic results was related to Sun Quan's own vacillation and the ambiguous attitude of Zhou Yu, the main combatant.  Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, one was unwilling to be the overlord of one party and was reduced to a petty official in the capital; the other was unwilling to be the commander in charge of the life and death of thousands of troops and returned to civilian life.  Once power is in hand, no one is willing to give it up, let alone two high-spirited young people.  Sun Quan and Zhou Yu have reached a consensus to use the time when Ma Han is mourning for the emperor and try to use the "dragging" technique as much as possible.  Put it off until July and August.  By then, the summer floods in the Yangtze River and the hot weather in the south of the Yangtze River will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Dragon and Wolf Army.  Since manpower cannot defeat Ma Han and his dragon and wolf army, let God do it.  Since it¡¯s procrastination, you naturally have to put on a show that everything is negotiable.  Harsh conditions for Ma Huan.  He couldn't refuse, but he didn't agree immediately. Instead, he made an excuse to unify the whole army's understanding and convince his subordinates and members of each family.  Of course this takes time.  Ah, how long will it take, you ask?  ASAP.  Try your best, please wait patiently How could Guo Jia not see what Sun and Tuesday were planning, but he was not in a hurry.  You drag on your side, and I'll do mine. Let's see whether things get dragged out in the end, or whether I succeed in doing it.  After half a month, Guo Jia basically visited all the leading figures in the Jiangdong forces. Next, he had to visit two raptors whose wings had been clipped.  Guo Jia went with Liu Wan and first paid a visit to Liu Bei.  The conversation was a good one, at least on the surface.  After leaving Liu's house, he went to visit Xun Yu again. When he arrived at Xun Yu's house, his servant told him that the master had followed his lord to the mourning hall in the northern suburbs.  Okay, this saves trouble, even Cao Cao also paid a visit.  ?The northern suburb of Shaxian is surrounded by mountains and water, according to Feng Shui.  It is a good place for burials. Xia Houyuan, the leader of Cao Army, is buried here.  As for Han Hao, Cao Cao has agreed to hand him over to the Dragon and Wolf Army to return him to Hanoi for burial in his hometown.  But he firmly disagreed that the Dragon and Wolf Army should send Xiahou Yuan Lingshu back to Qiao County.  Cao Cao would rather bury Xia Houyuan here temporarily and move the tomb later.  I don¡¯t want to go through the hands of Longlang.  ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  To Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan was not only his clan brother, but also a clan general.  He is also his last general.  Xiahou Yuan died, and Han Hao died. The next time they commanded Cao's army in battle, only their father and son were left.  Originally there was Liu Yan, whom Cao Cao also thought highly of.  During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao even placed Dongjun, one of the two major bases in Yanzhou, under his guard.  But after the defeat in Xiling, this person took advantage of the chaos and disappeared with a retinue of soldiers.  "Ten years of hard work were ruined in one day, and he went round and round and returned to the beginning. However, the brothers who fought side by side with him had long since been wiped out Cao Cao in front of the memorial shed sighed and shed tears.  Xun Yu supported his sick body and had his servants carry him up the mountain. After paying homage, he endured his grief and advised his lord to refrain from mourning.  He spoke a little hastily, wheezing and coughing.  As a result, Cao Cao and Cao Pi wanted to comfort him.  In the midst of sorrow and gloom, a guard came to report: "Liu Tiantian and Guo Shijun are here to visit." The three of them looked at each other, and Cao Cao said calmly: "It's time to come, please." Guo Jia and Liu Wan chose to go up the mountain to visit instead.  The main purpose of waiting quietly in the mansion was to pay homage to Xia Houyuan and ease the hostility.  Moreover, when discussing matters in the mourning shed, the atmosphere will not be too tense.  However, when they saw Cao Cao with a relaxed smile on his face and Xun Yu with an indifferent expression, they couldn't help but secretly praise him. He was indeed a hero of the moment and very magnanimous.  Guo Jia was even more secretly vigilant. No wonder the lord personally pursued and killed this person and would not let him go. He really looked like a hero.  The two of them went to Xia Houyuan¡¯s tomb firstAfter paying their respects, they met with Cao Cao, his son and Xun Yu, and sat down separately as the honored guests.  ??Guo Jia and Xun Yu are both from Yingchuan and know each other. They haven¡¯t seen each other for many years and they had a pleasant conversation.  Guo Jia also presented the gifts delivered to Xun You, which were mainly precious medicinal materials that strengthened the foundation and strengthened the body.  Cao and Xun both thanked him.  After talking for a long time, and seeing that the atmosphere was harmonious, we introduced the topic.  Guo Jia made no secret of it and said to Cao Cao: "Is Mr. Cao willing to serve in Luo?" Cao Cao laughed and said: "This is what Cao Cao wishes."  ?" Guo Jia frowned: "Wen Ruo should be careful." When he said this, Xun Yu became angry: "Is it the actions of the ministers to interfere in the selection of the prince? " Liu Wan!  I was greatly embarrassed and tried to persuade him again and again.  With the Xun family's connections, it is not surprising that he knew what happened in Luoyang. The storm in Luoyang dealt a heavy blow to many established scholars. No wonder Xun Yu was so angry.  Guo Jia calmly said: "You are thousands of miles away from Luoyang. If you don't listen to the wind, it will be rain. Why don't you come to Luoyang to see it in person?"  We will go to Luo together." Guo Jiahan smiled and said, "That's very good." When leaving, as usual, Cao Cao presented gifts to the two envoys.  The gift given to Liu Wan was a pair of jade walls, which means that a gentleman is as clean as jade.  The gift given to Guo Jia was a copper wok, which meant that it could be used as food for five pots (that is, the title of a prince).  They are all very meaningful gifts.  Guo and Liu thanked him and then went down the mountain.  Looking at the group of people walking away, Cao Cao's face slowly darkened while stroking his beard and smiling.  After returning to the tomb, Cao Pi had just sat down when he heard Xun Yu say: "Kill or not?" Cao Pi was startled and blurted out: "Who to kill?" Cao Cao stroked his beard and said nothing, his eyes gradually became firm: "Kill!  "Cao Pi also reacted at this time and was shocked: "Kill Guo Fengxiao!" "Yes, why?  Weren't we talking and laughing just now? Why did he stab him as soon as he turned around?  And the identity of the person he wanted to stab was not trivial.  Cao Cao glanced at his eldest son and said calmly: "There are two people coming. You only talked about one of them. How could you not know?"  Consciously guess the truth.  But Cao Pi was still puzzled: "At this critical moment, if Guo Fengxiao suddenly kills Sha Xian, then Ma Han may be angry with thunder Oh! I understand." Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction, and Xun Yu also smiled happily,  Sure enough, children can be taught.  Cao Pi really understood this time. Guo Jia sent Sha Xian as envoy to join forces vertically and horizontally.  Zhang Zhao advocated peace, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu had ambiguous attitudes, and the entire Jiangdong Army was filled with an atmosphere of compromise.  If Jiangdong's army relents, the Cao family will be doomed.  The three alliances collapsed. How could the Cao-Liu coalition alone be the opponent of the Dragon and Wolf Army?  Then they will have nowhere to escape.  Falling into the hands of the iron-blooded butcher Ma Huan, the consequencesit's chilling to think about.  For the current plan, this unfavorable situation must be broken.  If the envoy of the Dragon and Wolf Army is assassinated in Shaxian Haha, Sun Quan is so speechless that he can't speak clearly, and Ma Huan will unleash the fury of thunder and raise his troops to attack.  In this way, the alliance of the three families was re-consolidated.  Cao Pi stood up with his sword, eager to try: "My child is willing to share my worries for Aweng!" Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu and asked, "How?"  There is one person in Xian City who is the most suitable person." Cao Cao raised his eyebrows first, then slowly lowered them, stroking his hands and laughing: "Wen Ruozhen is my good minister, this person is really the best candidate." The two looked at each other and laughed.  Only Cao Pi looked at this and that, and really couldn't understand what they were saying.  As soon as he returned to the mansion, Guo Jia asked Chen Dao to wait for the dragon and wolf guards to pack their bags, as if they were about to return.  Chen Dao didn't know why, but he still executed it without hesitation.  While cleaning up, Liu Wan came over to talk. He was quite surprised when he saw this: "Fengxiao, what does this mean?" Guo Jiazheng was leaning on the lap of his beautiful maid, drinking as much as he wanted. When he saw Liu Wan asking, he raised his delicate eyebrows: "  Of course he will return to Zhu County to resume his duties." Liu Wan was surprised: "Isn't this too sudden? Oh, did the general summon him secretly" Guo Jia smiled and shook his head: "No, if you don't leave, Duke Cao will do it.  Kill me." Liu Wan was shocked: "Where do you start talking about this?" Guo Jia smiled and pointed at the copper wok in the corner of the room: "What do you think this is?" "This is a gift from Cao Gong.  "Wok." Guo Jia smiled coldly: "Wok is a disaster. It can be cooked in five cauldrons. I am going to cook it in front of Xia Hou Miaocai's tomb!"? Liu Wan was dumbfounded. This thing can still be explained in this way.  But don't say it yet, think about it, it really means that.  At that time, people paid attention to the communication between heaven and man, and prophecies of bad luck. Liu Wan also believed in this. Hearing what Guo Jia said, he became scared.  Guo Jia waved his hands and said: "Mr. Cao's purpose is mine, and I will never hurt Mr. Liu. Just keep everything as usual." "No, no, I came with Fengxiao, and we will return together when we need it." Liu Wan said and left.  Go, "I'm going to say goodbye to Sun Hou." Over here, Chen Dao listened to the conversation in the room and stared at the copper wok in the corner of the room for a long time before asking, "Should I take this thing back to Zhu County?"  ?" Guo Jia smiled slightly: "Give me a knife and let me carve a few words for Mr. Cao." (To be continued.)
