Guo Jia of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei was reborn at the beginning to recruit

Chapter 57, Infernal Affairs

Ambition leads to plunder and brings strife.

If Xiu massacres various tribes and rebels, will the Qiangqu Chanyu sit back and wait for death?

Of course not. In this case, the two sides will inevitably start a war. No matter what the outcome is, it will be a good thing for Liu Bei.

If the Qiangqu Shanyu wins, the so-called problem of Xiutu tribes can be solved directly.

If Xiu Tu's tribes win, Liu Bei will send troops to clean up the mess according to Guo Jia's plan.

Liu Bei hesitated and said: "Fengxiao, will this strategy..."

Too heartless.

After all, strictly speaking, Qiang Qushan was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and at least on the surface he was a very obedient minister. If he plotted against him, he would inevitably be unworthy of a gentleman.

Everyone thought the same way. In their opinion, those who were really ready to take action were not allowed to massacre tribes, and other tribes were not guilty.

Guo Jia had a different view on this. He looked outside the house and said with a smile: "My lord, I once heard a saying that when a snow mountain collapses, not a single snowflake is innocent."

Everyone was puzzled.

Guo Jia continued: "Qiang Qu is obedient because he can see the situation more clearly than the people in Xiutu's tribes and knows that they cannot fight against the powerful Han people today."

"But once the big man shows his weakness, he will take a bite without hesitation. I'm sure of this."

Qiang Qu may be unfamiliar to many people, but if his grandson and great-grandson are mentioned, I believe many people in future generations will remember him.

His grandson Liu Bao was the main culprit who captured Cai Wenji. As for his great-grandson Liu Yuan, his origins are even greater.

The promoter and initiator of the Five Husbands' Rebellion in China was the former Emperor Kaiguo of Zhao. That's why Guo Jiacai said this. Qiang Qu was not loyal, but he was better at judging the situation.

Liu Bei died early in his previous life and did not know about Wuhu's rebellion in China, but he heard about the Southern Huns taking advantage of the chaos to go south.

He suddenly woke up and said seriously: "What Fengxiao said is absolutely true."

This is a group of white-eyed wolves who have not been raised well. No matter how benevolent they are, they cannot tolerate this kind of thing. If they are not of my race, their hearts must be different. The ancients will not deceive me.

After Liu Bei thought it through, he continued: "How do Fengxiao think this plan should be implemented?"

Guo Jia has only put forward a general strategy, but the specific operation needs to be elaborated. For example, how to win the trust of the leaders of Xiutu's tribes and how to provoke the relationship between him and the Qiangqu Chanyu are not easy.

Although everyone didn't know why Liu Bei changed his attitude, since the lord had made a decision, they had no choice but to comply.

Zhang Fei said with excitement on his face: "It seems that there is another war." As we all know, local tyrant Zhang has two major hobbies, drinking and fighting.

When everyone saw this, they smiled bitterly and were speechless.

Guo Jia thought for a while and said: "I will go out personally to plan this matter, but before that, the Lord needs to coordinate the troops and horses of Bingzhou and be ready to respond at any time."

He actually doesn't like to take risks, but Liu Bei still lacks talents under Liu Bei, especially an eloquent person.

Liu Bei rejected the proposal without hesitation.

"If this strategy requires being filial to relatives and involving danger, then I would rather fight the Southern Xiongnu openly, even if I am reprimanded by the emperor and lose my official position."

These words not only have the element of winning people's hearts, but they are also spoken from the bottom of my heart.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Bei had already regarded Guo Jia as the mastermind and was absolutely unwilling to let him go deep into the tiger's den. People's hearts are unpredictable. Although he was there to deter him, there was no guarantee that those barbarians would not fall ill.

Guo Jia was about to speak when someone behind him took the lead.

"Lord, why don't you let me go down here."

Everyone looked back, but it was Jian Yong who had just joined. After Liu Bei merged with Zhou Mu, he had been waiting on the way north and joined the team.

Guo Jia didn't know much about this man. He only knew that he was a veteran who followed Liu Bei in the early days, and his abilities could only be considered average.

Zhang Fei obviously knew him and looked very familiar with him, so he said carelessly: "Can you do it?"

Jian Yong was Liu Bei's childhood friend. After Liu Bei and Zhang became sworn brothers, he was introduced to them by Liu Bei.

Hearing Zhang Fei's question, Jian Yong smiled and said: "Yide must have forgotten that I am learning the art of sophistry, and this matter to me is a God-given achievement."

"Of course, the military advisor needs to teach me how to implement this strategy."

Because the previous battles were planned by Guo Jia, and because Zhang Fei was used to calling him, everyone under Liu Bei now calls him Military Advisor.

"No."

Liu Bei refused again.

Jian Yong was an old minister who had never left him in his previous life, and he was also unwilling to let him take risks.

It has to be said that although Liu Bei's attitude showed the benevolent side of a woman, everyone did not feel uncomfortable. Instead, they felt that he was a good master who treated his subordinates well.

Jian Yong smiled and said: "I haven't accomplished even an inch of merit. If the lord doesn't even allow me to take this kind of God-given merit, I have to resign."

He's not kidding, he has found himself in an awkward position since joining.

Guo Jia planned every strategy, coordinated the overall situation, and made great efforts in Liu Bei's proposal to merge the states.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei charged into battle and were indispensable warriors. They were also Liu Bei's sworn brothers.

Mi Zhu's family was extremely wealthy and he was responsible for the money and food for the army. His position was equally important.

Only him!

Apart from being the protagonist's young friend, he seems to have nothing to offer.

Liu Bei sighed and said helplessly: "Xianhe, you..."

Jian Yong said half-jokingly: "My lord, you can't live without sending envoys, right?"

Of course, this is a joke. The Central Plains people will abide by the rule of "the envoys will not be killed when two armies are fighting", but the Hu people may not do so.

Liu Bei knew his friend's stubbornness, so he could only sigh: "Forget it, I'll leave this matter to Xianhe."

Guo Jia came out of the queue and looked at Jian Yong solemnly: "Have you thought about Xianhe? This matter is extraordinary. Not only do you want to arouse the ambitions of Xiutu's tribes, but you also have a secret conspiracy with the Qiangqu Chanyu.

, causing the two sides to completely oppose each other."

This is a double-sided agent, but it is also "infernal affairs".

Jian Yong said with a relaxed look: "Strategist, don't underestimate me. In terms of making plans, I may not be as good as the military advisor, but with this mouth, the military advisor is probably not as good as me."

These words immediately caused Zhang Fei and others to burst into laughter, and the dull atmosphere was swept away.

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "That's true. When Jian Yong was in our Zhuo County, he was famous for his eloquence. He could eat all over the world with just one mouth."

Guo Jia smiled and said nothing. He didn't know that Jian Yong still had this title.

Liu Bei immediately arranged official positions for everyone.

Guo Jia offered wine to the military advisor. This was a sinecure, and he was usually only busy when he was marching and fighting, because Liu Bei subconsciously believed that Guo Jia did not know how to govern.

Mi Zhu led Cao Cao to work because he was in charge of money and food.

Jian Yong was engaged in another job, which was also a sinecure.

As for Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, he was tentatively appointed as a school captain. He will be rewarded after Liu Bei coordinates the unified army and reorganizes the troops and horses.

As a result, Liu Bei's first meeting after arriving in Bingzhou ended.
