Whether it is Cao Cao's experience as an official since he was a child or his later experience as an official, he is told that over-reliance on one person will pay a heavy price, and when there is trouble, you will experience what it means to be desperate and helpless. So some of the people he met in positions of authority often treated such people by marginalizing them, or even getting rid of them altogether.

Just because he is too capable, no one can replace him, and even use this as a threat, then he will be passive, controlled everywhere, once he is unhappy, he will fall into paralysis at any time, this kind of person will not only not become a right-hand man, but will also become a threat.

Cao Cao has seen too many such things over the years, so he has to try his best to avoid this kind of thing, especially under his account, this kind of person is absolutely not allowed to exist, no matter how good he is, he will never be able to become the irreplaceable person under his account, if there is such a person, it must be himself.

Especially in the military, it is even more so, fortunately, the generals under Cao Cao's account are all in the hands of the relatives of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and they are considered to be soldiers, while other generals do not have a situation similar to Guo Jia, but even if it is Guo Jia, in fact, he has no influence in the army, plus he has no relatives, Cao Cao's trust in him is far beyond that of other scribes.

This kind of person can be reassured, even Cao Cao has been conniving at him, and Guo Jia is likely to have seen his intentions early, just like Qi Huan Gong and Guan Zhong.

Guo Jia is smart and bears almost all the notoriety, and even in the eyes of some people, he has long regarded him as a thorn in the flesh, so he can only rely on himself, only under the protection of Cao Cao can he be safe and worry-free, otherwise, I don't know how many people will get rid of Guo Jia in the first time.

So for Guo Jia, he can be extremely indulgent, he can do whatever he wants, and the more this is the case, the more serious the situation will be that he is isolated and hostile, just like the Spirit Emperor connived at the Ten Standing Servants, their existence is that the Spirit Emperor can balance his relatives and clans with the help of it, and conniving at them is also a power trick, only by always being loyal to the Son of Heaven, can they ensure their own safety.

It's just that in the end, Emperor Ling got rid of it, and said that the Han Dynasty was defeated in the hands of eunuchs, but Cao Cao didn't think so, the eunuchs had a certain reason, but the rise and fall of a dynasty was really just because of the ten permanent servants who let him fall, so such a dynasty is too vulnerable.

What's more, in the hundreds of years of the Han Dynasty, the eunuchs and relatives have alternated, coupled with the existence of the family, the world of the Han Dynasty has been two hundred years, and the real reason for the current situation of the Han Dynasty is that although there is a relationship between the eunuchs and relatives, after the fall of the eunuchs and relatives, what is the current Han Dynasty?

Therefore, people like eunuchs and Guo Jia will never pose any threat to him, because everything he has is built on people like him, and his relatives have completely lost their military power.

Just like the Three Rivers family, these families bring the relationship between the families closer through marriage, so that they are intertwined and connected, these families are often able to respond to one call, especially under the premise that no one side has replaced the power of the eunuch party and relatives, the family has almost become a monopoly, and internally they are monolithic, so Cao Cao in addition to the external threat, for the internal crisis is also in the eyes.

His meritocracy, to put it bluntly, is tailor-made for the family, although the impact on the family will not be too great, and it will not shake their foundation, but only by letting those poor children have a bright future, can they hope to deal with the clan and balance the clan, in fact, in this matter, Feng Lailou and Liu Lan had a chat back then, which made him drink nectar.

This is why the two later regarded each other as confidants, because the two were so consistent in their views on the problem, he even remembered Liu Lan's sentence: The people who shelter the world are happy, which can be said to be straight to the point. Only when the humble scholars really have a path to the official career, then the family that holds political resources can really be effectively curbed, otherwise, otherwise, they can only drink to quench their thirst.

At the same time as using the clan, the clan will become the biggest threat, such a situation, maybe even Emperor Guangwu did not think of it, just like Yanwu Xiuwen, maybe under the circumstances at that time, it played a decisive role in the recuperation of the people of the Han Dynasty after the great turmoil, but in the later period, there was a voice similar to the abandonment of Liangzhou because of Xiqiang.

With such a result, Emperor Guangwu at that time would probably never have thought of it, and what the current situation would be, Cao Cao would not know, would his support for the Hanmen create a group of new forces that could confront the clan, or would it be many years later, under the suppression of the clan, the Hanmen would fall silent again?

He will not know about this matter, but history has long been decided, after Cao Cao, Cao Pi broke Cao Cao's rules, once again reused the family, Cao Cao's meritocracy became a passing cloud, and the Cao Wei group that overthrew the Han Dynasty by the hand of the family was finally replaced by the Sima family of the Sanhe clan.

Cao Cao couldn't think of this, I'm afraid he wouldn't think of these in his life, he could only think of the threat of the clan at most, but he didn't expect that after the clan became dominant, he would be wiped out in a few hundred years.

Cao Cao, who had turned around thousands of times, was now thinking about how to deal with Yuan Shao's order to send troops, and at this time, Dian Wei's voice suddenly sounded outside the hall: "Cao Gong, Guo Junshi is here." "Guo Jia's official position in the army is military sacrificial wine, and it is not surprising that Dian Wei has this title.

What is the so-called matter of Guo Jia coming at this time? Cao Cao, who was preoccupied, heard that Guo Jia was coming, although he didn't know what he was doing, but guessed that it must have something to do with the Battle of Xuzhou.

"Let him in." After Cao Cao finished speaking, soon the door of the house opened, Guo Jia took the lead in entering, and at the same time as he entered the house, another person followed him into the house, Cao Cao recognized the person at a glance, it was actually Zhu Ling, and he wondered even more, how could Feng Xiao ask Zhu Ling to accompany him at this time, could it be that he had some strategy to break the enemy?

After the two people in the hall gave a salute, Cao Cao let them sit down, Zhu Ling looked majestic, his face was resolute, he had three long beards, and he never cared about how Cao Cao was under his account, which is why there were a large number of Yuan Shao's subordinates who defected, but Zhu Ling was different, he could be said to be the only one in the group of people who did not ask Yuan Shao to resign, and he may even be the only one who made Yuan Shao grit his teeth.

Although the contradiction between him and Yuan Shao is because after welcoming the first emperor, the fuse can be the fuse, maybe it was Zhu Ling who buried it, when Cao Cao conquest Tao Qian, Yuan Shao sent Zhu Ling to lead three battalions of men and horses to aid him, and then because of Lu Bu's attack on Yanzhou, Yuan Shao made the decision to abandon Yanzhou, and recalled Zhu Ling and others, but I didn't want Zhu Ling to serve by Cao Cao's side for several months, I felt that this was the Ming Lord he had been looking for, and it would definitely be able to achieve great things in the future, in this case, Zhu Ling chose to stay and help Cao Cao.

That's a full three battalions of people, and these people also stayed in Cao Cao's army with Zhu Ling.

Originally, he didn't care about the stupid Zhu Ling Yuan Shao, and he completely held the attitude of watching the show, waiting for them to cry and shout to beg him to take him in, but Cao Cao finally turned defeat into victory, and even occupied Yanzhou that he gave up, Yanzhou, which was originally under the control of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao was just the county guard of a county, and after defeating Lu Bu, it was impossible to become a prince in charge of a state.

Yuan Shao's heart obviously changed, and he even hated Zhu Ling to the core, if it weren't for his existence, if it weren't for his troops, Cao Cao might have defeated Lu Bu? As a result, the anger has not yet been reduced, and Yuan Shao, who let Emperor Ling out, was appointed by Cao Cao as a lieutenant, and Cao Cao actually took the position of general.

This naked ridicule happened one after another, how could Yuan Shao still tolerate Cao Cao? It is inevitable to turn his face, but because of Liu Lan's existence, he did not have a seizure, but directly refused Cao Cao's appointment, but Cao Cao was also smart enough to hurriedly give the general to Yuan Shao, which can be regarded as resolving the imminent war between the two.

It's just that at this time, Guo Jia suddenly brought Zhu Ling over, and it was really a little difficult to figure out what he was going to do, and now several people have decided to cooperate with Yuan Shao, a general like Zhu Ling, it is better to appear less, but Guo Jia must have a good way to treat him.

Guo Jia has no friends in Xu? Of course not, although he doesn't have much, but the Zhu Ling in front of him is one, in fact, Cao Cao has always been a little puzzled, why the fair, selfless and extremely decent Zhu Ling would become a confidant with a person with a bad reputation like Guo Jia, but later he understood that the two of them had no family and relatives in Xu, and they belonged to the category of lonely people.

And he only then learned that Zhu Ling's whole family had been killed by Gongsun Zhan, although in the end he failed to personally avenge joining, but when he heard the news of Gongsun Zhan's death, he still bowed to the north three times, although he had changed the court, but he thanked Yuan Shao and Fu Zhu in this way.

Cao Cao instructed the maid to prepare refreshments, and between the maid changing the new tea for him, he kept chatting with the two, and said with a smile that Guo Jia would find a good family for Zhu Ling, although the whole family died in the hands of Gongsun Zhan, but it can't always be alone, and the heirs of the Zhu family must continue.

Cao Cao said these words with a smile, and the maid on the side of the face was red-faced, and thought that she wanted him to accompany her, the deer jumped wildly, and as a result, they all went out of the house after changing the refreshments, and they were all happy, as for Zhu Ling, he naturally would not think about these things at this time, and the main reason why he and Guo Jia came to see the general of the chariot cavalry was the matter of fighting with Liu Lan.

"General, I heard that Wen Chou has already sent troops to Xuzhou?" After Guo Jia waited for the maid to leave, he took the lead in asking.

"I also received the news, but the specific loss is not clear, it is estimated that there will be news tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Cao Cao said Ao.

Zhu Ling hurriedly got up and said, "This is a great opportunity for our army, as long as they fight head-on, our army can return to Peixian, even if the two armies confront each other, our army cannot sit still, this time it is bound to take Peixian." ”

Cao Cao was just the county guard of a county, and after defeating Lu Bu, he was so desperate that he became a prince in charge of a state.

Yuan Shao's heart obviously changed, and he even hated Zhu Ling to the core, if it weren't for his existence, if it weren't for his troops, Cao Cao might have defeated Lu Bu? As a result, the anger has not yet been reduced, and Yuan Shao, who let Emperor Ling out, was appointed by Cao Cao as a lieutenant, and Cao Cao actually took the position of general.
