At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted
Chapter 755: An Undeniable Temptation
"How?"
Unexpectedly, Guo Jia had a backup, which surprised Cao Cao even more.
The greater the temptation, the more crazy the Xianbei people will be, until they fight to the death.
"Hetao!"
"Hetao? Isn't that the area where the Southern Huns lived?"
Cao Cao was puzzled and did not understand Guo Jia's meaning.
"My lord, the former overlords of the grassland were the Huns, but unfortunately they were eventually replaced by the Xianbei. The northern Huns fled far away, while the southern Huns took refuge in the Han Dynasty, lingering in the Hetao area."
"In fact, the Xianbei people do not want to drive out the Huns all the time, and they have long coveted the fertile Hetao area!"
"It's just that the Southern Xiongnu is backed by the Han Dynasty, and Xianbei's strength has been greatly weakened due to continuous division, so it has no power to Hetao."
Guo Jia didn't continue talking, he believed that Cao Cao could understand what he meant.
Sure enough, it didn't take long before Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia with hesitation.
"Fengxiao means to promise the land of Hetao to the Xianbei people?"
Guo Jia smiled and nodded, this is also his new plan.
"My lord, we can promise the Xianbei people that after they repel Liu Zhang, we will help them deal with the Southern Huns and obtain the land of Hetao."
"Xianbei people think about Hetao day and night, and they will definitely be shocked, which will strengthen their determination to fight Liu Zhang!"
Cao Cao nodded again and again, full of praise in his mouth.
First Guanzhong, then Hetao, and the supply of food and grass!
How could some barbaric Xianbei resist this temptation?
Guo Jia completely saw through the greed of the Xianbei people, and seized their weaknesses everywhere.
These temptations are placed in front of the Xianbei people, they must be unable to stop, how can they refuse?
"Feng Xiao's trick of throwing bricks to attract jade is really powerful, and this Sikong admires him!"
"But if the Xianbei really defeated Liu Zhang, then do we really want to help them deal with the Huns?"
Cao Cao knew that this situation was almost impossible, so he was just curious and asked casually.
Guo Jia didn't fluctuate at all, still smiling confidently.
"My lord, if the Xianbei people win, we will use the Huns to contain them. Similarly, if the Xianbei people lose, we will use the Huns to contain Liu Zhang."
"No matter who occupies the Guanzhong land, we will use this trick to make them exhausted and unable to recuperate!"
Cao Cao's eyes were full of surprises, and the surprise Guo Jia brought him was too great!
"Okay! It's a trick to divert the water to the east!"
"My Sikong has filial piety to help me, so why worry about the failure of major events? Why worry about the uncertainty of the world?"
"Hahaha…"
Cao Cao beamed with joy, and kept laughing up to the sky.
In such a short period of time, Guo Jia delayed Liu Zhang's expansion for several years with just a few words!
"My lord is overrated!"
Although his mouth is very humble, Guo Jia's face is always full of pride and confidence.
He is aloof and arrogant, and he thinks highly of himself, and never puts anyone in his eyes.
But Guo Jia has one advantage, he never underestimates anyone!
This also makes him extremely conceited, and he has never failed.
"Feng Xiao, how does Liu Zhang act?"
Cao Cao remembered that Guo Jia said just now that he had to make two-handed preparations, not only to contact the Xianbei people, but also to contact Liu Zhang.
The purpose is also very obvious, even if the Xianbei people don't take the initiative to attack Liu Zhang, let Liu Zhang send troops to Guanzhong to fight with the Xianbei people!
"The lord can issue an imperial edict to Liu Zhang to lead his army to conquer the Xianbei people and drive them out of Guanzhong."
"What if Liu Zhang resists the order and doesn't respect it?"
When Cao Cao first supported Liu Xie, the princes from all over the country continued to pay tribute, nominally obeying the emperor.
Ever since Yuan Shu assumed the title of emperor, the status of the emperor has continued to decline, becoming less and less valuable.
Now the imperial decree issued by Xuchang is basically useless, and no one will obey it.
As a general, Yuan Shao even openly resisted the edict and led an army of 100,000 to attack Yanzhou!
It was hard for Cao Cao to believe that Liu Zhang could be given orders with just one imperial decree.
"My lord, Liu Zhang claims to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. If he resists the order and disrespects it, isn't he contradicting himself?"
"If you don't even obey His Majesty's will, who will believe in Liu Zhang's status as a loyal minister in the future?"
Guo Jia was not afraid that Liu Zhang would not obey his orders. On the contrary, he felt that Liu Zhang would obey the imperial edict without hesitation.
Isn't it what Liu Zhang couldn't wait to do to lead an army to attack the Xianbei who occupied Guanzhong?
Now with the will of the emperor, Liu Zhang is even more famous.
In the future, Liu Zhang can justifiably say that he is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.
"Humph…"
Cao Cao snorted coldly, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
"If Liu Zhang is a loyal minister, there will be no chance for traitors to exist in the world!"
"If he hadn't allowed Dong Zhuo to dominate the court, how could the world have become like this?"
Over the years, Cao Cao hated Liu Zhang the most.
It was precisely because of Liu Zhang's selfishness that Cao Cao, who aspired to be the general of the Han Dynasty to conquer the West, died completely.
It also made today's treacherous officials of the Han Dynasty, a hero in troubled times, and a national thief Cao Cao.
But this is the evaluation of Cao Cao by outsiders. Cao Cao himself does not think he is a national thief.
At least compared to the national traitor Dong Zhuo, he is infinitely more kind-hearted!
"My lord, Liu Zhang is not an idler, he can be called our greatest enemy!"
The person Guo Jia admired most was Cao Cao, but the one he admired most was Liu Zhang.
Just after Liu Hong died, He Jin died inexplicably in the palace, He Miao was beheaded by his subordinate Wu Kuang, and Jian Shuo also died in the barracks.
Liu Zhang incorporated the entire Yulin Army and Xiyuan Army by means of thunder.
Holding the military power, occupying an absolute advantage, and having the last emperor's will, Liu Zhang resisted the temptation to monopolize the government, and chose to retreat bravely without hesitation!
No matter how rampant Dong Zhuo was and how brutal he was, Liu Zhang still turned a blind eye and silently watched the Han Dynasty fall apart step by step!
In Guo Jia's view, Liu Zhang was absolutely capable of changing all this.
But he didn't!
The biggest reason why Liu Zhang was not regarded as a traitor of the Han Dynasty by the people of the world was because his surname was Liu.
If Liu Zhang is not a member of the clan of the Han Dynasty, he is Liu Zhang who is recognized as the great thief of the country at this moment.
"My lord, Liu Zhang is full of tricks and has countless talented people under his command! Therefore, he must pay some undeniable conditions to lure him to attack Guanzhong."
Hearing the word price, Cao Cao couldn't help but tremble all over, and the corners of his eyes kept twitching.
"Feng Xiao, we really don't have any food for Liu Zhang..."
Guo Jia waved his hands again and again, laughing dumbfounded by Cao Cao.
"My lord, I don't mean that!"
"Yizhou is known as the Land of Abundance, Liu Zhang must have no shortage of food. Our food and grass can't give him any temptation."
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Guo Jia's guarantee.
But without food, what else can Cao Cao give Liu Zhang?
