At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted

"Wen Ruo already knows the news?"

Cao Cao exclaimed, then looked at Guo Jia suspiciously.

All the intelligence networks of the Cao Cao Group were handed over to Guo Jia.

In other words, Guo Jia was the first to learn about all the information, followed by Cao Cao.

This is also due to Cao Cao's trust in Guo Jia.

Facts have proved that Guo Jia has never failed Cao Cao's trust.

Every time there is information, Guo Jia will find Cao Cao immediately.

This time was no exception, Cao Cao preconceived that Guo Jia had just received information, and immediately came to report to him.

But when Xun Yu learned about this, it meant that Guo Jia's information had been leaked!

This problem is very serious for Cao Cao!

Guo Jia was equally puzzled, and he swore that there would be absolutely no leaks.

The messengers ran all night to deliver the information, and Guo Jia didn't delay for a moment, and immediately came to look for Cao Cao to report.

"Wen Ruo, how did you find out?"

Guo Jia's tone was full of anxiety and urgency. He was extremely conceited and he would not allow himself to make such a mistake!

Xun Yu was confused by Cao Cao and Guo Jia, and his handsome face was also full of doubts.

"Why, is this news confidential?"

Guo Jia nodded again and again, and the whole person became tense.

"Of course! I just got the news, so I'm going to report to the lord right away!"

Xun Yu also had a playful look on his face, he had never seen Guo Jia like this before.

"You're not good at information, are you? I'm afraid the whole Xuchang knows about this news."

"what!"

Guo Jia stared wide-eyed, and even raised his voice a lot.

"how can that be!"

For Guo Jia, who prides himself on his superior intelligence, this is really a failure!

Father, like son.

Seeing the vague sneer on Xun Yu's face, Cao Cao immediately understood.

Xun Yu did it on purpose!

This must be retaliation for Guo Jia's mention of being king just now!

"Wen Ruo, stop teasing Feng Xiao."

Guo Jia's eyes are full of doubts, loss and self-blame. Totally lost its luster.

How could Cao Cao bear the heart of his most trusted counselor to become like this!

Xun Yu shook his head lightly, and cupped his hands to report to Cao Cao.

"My lord, I am not lying. The envoy from Yizhou came to Xuchang, and I heard what the envoy said."

"And I also heard that the Yizhou mission is promoting Liu Zhang's achievements!"

So it is!

Guo Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he would have racked his brains and couldn't figure out what went wrong.

"Wen Ruo, why didn't you say it earlier! Look how scared I was!"

Guo Jia's complaint not only failed to get Xun Yu's apology, but got a cold snort instead.

"I see if you still dare to talk nonsense!"

Guo Jia looked at Xun Yu, but finally said nothing.

He has a deep friendship with Xun Yu, so he naturally knows what his ideal is.

Seeing this situation, Cao Cao quickly stood up to smooth things over.

"Wen Ruo, what are the missions from Yizhou doing here? They're looking for you?"

Xun Yu nodded and ignored Guo Jia.

"My lord, the Yizhou mission came to pay tribute and brought Shu brocade, salt, treasures, beautiful jade and so on."

"By the way, there is also the Shu five baht coin minted by Liu Zhang. It is said that it is specially presented to His Majesty."

Cao Cao raised his right hand and caressed his chin, showing a thoughtful expression.

For so many years, Liu Zhang has never paid any tribute, why did he come at this time?

"Wen Ruo, did they explain why they came?"

"No, they said they just came to see His Majesty."

Xun Yu was also very puzzled, but unfortunately no matter how much he asked, he didn't get any useful information.

"Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Cao Cao turned to look at Guo Jia, hoping his mastermind could give an answer.

It's a pity that Guo Jia got too little information, and he couldn't figure out the intention.

"My lord, you can wait for the envoy from Xuanyi Prefecture to meet His Majesty at the court meeting tomorrow. It will be clear then."

Seeing that Guo Jia didn't see Liu Zhang's intentions, Cao Cao could only nod helplessly.

"That's all there is to it..."

"My lord, what's the matter with driving tigers and devouring wolves you just said?"

After all, when it comes to the issue of being king, Xun Yu is still a little worried.

"Feng Xiao, tell me."

Cao Cao deferred the power of interpretation to Guo Jia, and he had to think again about Liu Zhang's intentions.

Guo Jia didn't refuse, and quickly opened his mouth to explain to Xun Yu.

"Wen Ruo, Yuan Shao mobilized 100,000 border guards and tens of thousands of county soldiers in Yecheng, and is preparing to go south to the Central Plains again."

"After Liu Zhang's victory in Liangzhou, his momentum is unstoppable!"

"In order to prevent us from being attacked on both sides, I offered my lord a plan and asked the Xianbei people to block Liu Zhang for us."

Xun Yu nodded slightly, still not surprised.

"Yuan Shao annexed the people of the four prefectures, and his comeback is certain. It's just that his border guards are hard to deal with..."

Xun Yu never thought that Yuan Shao could be completely defeated in the first battle of Guandu, so another war between Cao and Yuan was almost inevitable.

"Wen Ruo, it's a good thing that the Xianbei people walked a bit slower, otherwise we wouldn't have been so lucky in the previous battle of Guandu!"

Guo Jia was very fortunate from the beginning to the end. If the Xianbei people left early, Yuan Shao would have no worries.

Once the number of people in Guandu exceeds 100,000, it's hard to say whether our side can last until Xu You votes.

"Why? You prodigal son are still afraid?"

"Afraid? Hehe..."

Guo Jia chuckled, and returned to that extremely confident look.

"Feng Xiao, your plan to drive away tigers and wolves is probably going to fail. I heard that Liu Zhang is planning to return to Chengdu."

As soon as Xun Yu said this, Guo Jia's smile froze on his face.

"Wen Ruo, who did you listen to?"

"Naturally, he is the envoy of Yizhou."

Cao Cao, who was thinking about it, woke up when he heard the news.

"Wen Ruo, what did the Yizhou envoy say?"

"My lord, Liu Zhang wiped out 400,000 Qiang people in the two battles, and his own losses will be extremely serious. He has no power to conquer."

"According to the Yizhou envoy, Han Sui left hundreds of thousands of refugees to Liu Zhang, and Liu Zhang not only accepted them all, but also offered food to feed them."

"Now the Yizhou Army is not only seriously damaged in strength, but also seriously short of food and grass. How can it have the power to advance eastward?"

Looking at the serious faces of Cao Cao and Guo Jia, Xun Yu was a little puzzled.

"My lord, it's a good thing that Liu Zhang is unable to go east. At least for a while, we don't have to worry about the threat from the west!"

Cao Cao frowned, and there was clearly a Sichuan character on his forehead.

The "good things" that Xun Yu said did not ease his bad mood at all.
