Chapter 67: Taking advantage of the situation
It turns out that Mi Zhu has been making plans not far away. Although he has become an official, he still needs to control the family business.
He heard that his second brother and his younger sister were talking more and more outrageously, and when he was about to call them to stop, he unexpectedly saw Liu Bei arriving quietly but keeping secret.
The most embarrassing thing in the world is to be caught spying on someone secretly. Of course, this is also due to Liu Bei's own guilty conscience, otherwise he could have just said that he had just arrived.
Liu Bei pretended to be calm and said with a smile: "I have something to discuss with Zizhong."
Mi Zhu did not doubt that he was there, and raised his hand to indicate: "Master, please."
Liu Bei walked forward as if nothing had happened.
"Second brother speaks freely, please don't blame me, my lord."
"Zizhong is worried too much. It's just a joke. How can I argue with him?"
"Thank you, Lord."
——
"Sir, Qinglong has sent back news."
"Well, let's make tea in the study."
"yes."
Guo Jia crawled out of the warm nest, dressed neatly under Su Meiniang's service, and sighed: "This is the perfect time for a long sleep, but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop."
The cold winter makes people lazy. He really wants to hide in bed and be lazy all the time. However, being born in this era, he is destined to have a hard life.
When Su Meiniang heard this, she turned around and saw someone huddled in a cloak, refusing to take a step. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and said with a smile: "Husband, please stop complaining. You are still free from your duties as a military advisor, and other colleagues are still busy."
I have to go to the government office to handle official business!"
Guo Jia glanced at her, shook his head repeatedly, and sighed: "Actually, Jia was also a diligent and studious person back then, but ever since he met a goblin on that windy and snowy night, his body has become stronger and stronger."
Su Meiniang's face turned red immediately. She couldn't tell that this man was implying that she had hollowed him out by playing songs every night. She immediately stretched out her hand to hit him, but this man had already escaped.
…
In the study room.
Since Guo Jia received Mi Zhu's financial and financial support, he began to create the Jinyiwei team, and now the core framework has been roughly established.
He divided the Jinyiwei into four divisions, named after the four mythical beasts.
Qinglong is responsible for surveillance and gathering intelligence.
The White Tiger is responsible for lurking deep behind enemy lines.
Xuanwu is responsible for guarding, which is like a personal guard.
Suzaku is responsible for delivering it and scattering it all over the place.
The middle-aged man in black who is half-kneeling in front of him at this moment is the commander of the Qinglong Division, codenamed Qinglong.
"Two days ago, more than 20 cavalrymen left the Jinyang military camp, marched southward at starry night, and entered the Baibo Valley. The subordinates were afraid of arousing suspicion and did not dare to investigate in depth."
Baibo Valley~
Guo Jia fell into deep thought and quickly recalled the information about this name in his mind.
In February of the fifth year of Zhongping, Baibo Valley resurrected with more than 100,000 troops. They attacked Taiyuan and defeated Dong Zhuo's general Niu Fu. They also united with Yu Fuluo, the Southern Xiongnu who had moved inland to the Fen River Basin, and defeated Taiyuan, Hanoi and other counties.
Threaten Luoyang.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion never completely subsided, they were just dispersed and dormant in various states and counties.
For example, the famous Qingzhou Yellow Turban, Black Mountain Army... and the Baibo Army exposed in front of us at this moment.
However, at this time, Baibo Valley was not called Baibo Army, but in the eyes of the world, they were grass bandits who dominated the mountains and became kings.
A chill flashed in Guo Jia's eyes.
He could accept the peasant uprising and deal with them relatively loosely, but actions like the Baibo Army's collusion with the Hu people to invade the south had already touched his bottom line.
"Continue to monitor closely."
"Here!"
After Qinglong retreated, Guo Jia drank all the tea in his hand and walked out of the study. A cold wind blew in his face, and he couldn't help but shiver.
Hiss~
It’s really a hard life.
I just hope that this troubled time will end soon so that he can take off his armor and return home.
"Here, prepare the car."
After a while, a carriage drove through the street and headed towards the State Shepherd's Mansion.
As soon as Liu Bei returned from Mi Zhu's home, he heard the news of Guo Jia's arrival and immediately ordered someone to serve tea in the study.
After getting along with him for a year, he roughly understood the mastermind's temperament. He would never be polite when he could be lazy. Because of this, this time Guo Jia came in the wind and snow. Liu Bei knew that there must be something important.
matter.
"Lord, Ding Yuan has moved."
As soon as he sat down, Guo Jia informed him of the news from Jin Yiwei.
"Oh?" Liu Bei was a little surprised, although they had predicted in advance that if Ding Yuan still had ambitions, he would definitely take action quickly.
But he didn't expect it to happen so soon. Looking at this posture, Ding Yuan seemed to have had a plan for a long time, but he was forced to act in advance because of changes in Yanmen.
But this is also expected. Unlike Zhang Yi, Liu Bei could not let Ding Yuan monopolize the military power. The other party must have noticed this, and it is not surprising that he prepared in advance.
"What are his movements?"
Liu Bei was a little curious, how did Ding Yuan plan to replace him?
Guo Jia said slowly: "Baibo Valley."
"White Wave Valley?"
Liu Bei vaguely felt that he had heard this name somewhere.
It's him!
He remembered.
In the previous life, when Dong Zhuo dominated Guanzhong and monopolized the imperial court, a remnant of the Yellow Turbans called the Baibo Army rebelled and even defeated Niu Fu, whom Dong Zhuo sent to quell the rebellion.
Although they were later defeated by Li Jue and others, it also confirmed the strength of this force. After all, their opponent was the Xiliang Army.
Liu Bei smiled and said: "Kill me with the sword of the bandits. In the end, it is due to the remnants of the Yellow Turbans causing chaos, and Ding Jianyang is good at planning."
Guo Jia also laughed.
"Maybe this is the grave Ding Yuan dug for himself."
"It seems Fengxiao has a plan."
"Just follow the plan."
The two looked at each other and smiled again. They, the monarch and the minister, had been working together for a year and had already established a tacit understanding.
Guo Jia continued: "Ding Yuan's plan was nothing more than to instigate Baibo's army to raise troops, wait for the lord to lead the troops to suppress the rebellion, and then obstruct it, causing the lord to be defeated."
Liu Bei asked: "If I had not gone there in person, but sent him to lead the troops, wouldn't his strategy be in vain?"
"Then he would deliberately fake defeat and allow the Baibo army to ravage Bingzhou. At that time, the court and even the people in the world would think that it was because the lord was jealous of his talents and took away Ding Yuan's military power."
"One trick kills two birds with one stone."
Liu Bei couldn't help but lamented that it turned out that Ding Yuan was also a good man, but for some reason he fell into Dong Zhuo's alienation scheme outside Luoyang City, and was finally killed by Lu Bu.
Maybe it's because from the beginning, he left a fatal hidden danger around him.
He misestimated human nature and overestimated himself.
Lu Bu not only dared to kill him, but even easily incorporated the Bingzhou Army after his death.
Guo Jia shook his head and said seriously: "No, this is our plan to kill two birds with one stone."
Liu Bei's eyes lit up. He may not have a top-notch strategy, but he has the ability to distinguish and make decisions.
When he joined forces with Kong Ming in his previous life, it was always the other party who made suggestions and he made the final decision.
"Using the strategy to kill Ding Yuan with the help of the Baibo Army, and at the same time annihilating the Baibo Army that has been dormant for a long time, is indeed a plan to kill two birds with one stone."
"My lord is wise."
