"Fengxiao, why did you stop me from detaining Cao Ang as a hostage today?" Yes, when Ma Chao was thinking deeply about it before, he thought of Cao Cao's intention of sending Cao Ang here. And the meaning of looking at Guo Jia is naturally to ask Guo Jia about this.

But Guo Jia stood up and said the damn thing for Ma Chao, so that Ma Chao had no reason to turn his face and make a request to let Cao Ang be hostage. It seems that Guo Jia and Cao Angen broke off, but in fact, it indirectly pulled Cao Ang.

"After all, there is a master and apprentice, and the son is generous and honest, not at all like his father. Therefore, I am also a teacher, and I help students in the end. Guo Jia's answer was very calm, in fact, he also knew that in front of Ma Chao, it was useless to say any messy reasons.

Sure enough, Ma Chao nodded slightly after hearing this, and immediately stopped asking about the matter, and after looking around, he spoke: "Everyone, although we all know that uniting with the Cao family is the most needed choice for the Ma family at present, you have also seen that the next generation of the Cao family is full of talents, and if you don't get rid of it as soon as possible, it will be a big disaster for the Ma family." But if you turn your face and fight with the Cao family, you will need to face Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and the Ma family is really powerless. What should we do now? ”

Yang Fu said: "The deep meaning of the lord is already clear to the minister. On the surface, the Reunion is also needed by the Ma family. However, at present, my Ma family has been recuperating for more than a year, and it is at the time of the offensive map, and the Cao family is facing enemies on both sides in the northeast, and it also needs to be pacified and adjusted internally, so under the internal and external troubles, he needs to find a strong ally to share the pressure for it, so as to pass this pass smoothly. ”

"Yichen thought later, this time we can ignore the matter of the Cao family's resumption of the alliance, and send Cao Ang back to Yanzhou politely. In this way, as long as Cao Cao does not interfere in the affairs of the Ma family, the lord can mobilize the entire rule, personally lead an army of 150,000, and swallow the annexed state that has long been regarded as a bag! ”

Speaking of this, Yang Fu's train of thought seemed to have been opened, and after thinking about it for a while, he continued: "At that time, the battle between Yuan Shao and the Cao clan should also have a result. If Yuan Shao has the upper hand, we can then unite with the Cao clan to fight against Yuan Shao; If the Cao clan has the upper hand, we can negotiate peace with Yuan Shao and work together to defeat the Cao clan and eradicate the Ma family's fierce rival as soon as possible. If the alliance is reunited at this time, the Ma family is trapped in the contract, how to act? ”

"If you attack, you will be treacherous, and if you don't attack, you will lose the good situation in Kanto. At present, it is enough for our army to have an unreliable peace agreement with Liu Biao, so why promise a peace with the Cao family? In addition, although he has the righteousness of supporting the Han family, and the Ma family also has the mission of eliminating chaos for the people, if he allies with the Cao family for the second time, he will lose the hearts of the ministers and generals in the army, and fall into the momentum of the Ma family. ”

In fact, Ma Chao was also a little reluctant to form an alliance with the Cao family in his heart. Hearing Yang Fu's remarks, he couldn't help but feel reasonable, and said at the moment: "Yishan's words are even in line with my intentions." At present, although our army is at war with Yuan Shao, it will not necessarily be defeated by Yuan Shao. It is even more important to make an alliance with each other and tie up one's hands and feet. Tomorrow, I will set up a banquet and invite Cao Ang and the two to drink wine, and then everyone will know about the next matter, so that Cao Ang and the others will know the meaning of the Ma family's send-off, and send the two back. ”

The ministers nodded in agreement, however, Guo Jia on the side was rarely angry at this time, and said: "Could it be that the lord really suspects Guo Jia because of today's events, and wants to go his own way, and with the strength of the Ma family, he faces the heroes of the Kanto region?!" The Ma family is indeed full of soldiers and food, and the momentum is strong, but in the land of a hundred battles in the Kanto region, the princes have already become powerful, if they work together to attack the Ma family, the lord really thinks that the Ma family can be invincible? ! ”

At the beginning of this remark, everyone in the audience was shocked, Ma Chao heard Guo Jia say seriously, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and turned his eyes to Jia Xu for help. Fortunately, at this time, Jia Xu finally stopped pretending to be sick, but looked at Ma Chao with a calm face and nodded.

This action means that Jia Xu agrees with Guo Jia's statement, and unceremoniously said that Jia Xu and Guo Jia are the most far-sighted people among all the strategists of the Ma family, and now both of them are like this, Ma Chao couldn't help but hurriedly get up, walked to Guo Jia and said: "Brother, why did you say this, although I am a little short-sighted, but I am not a suspicious and unscrupulous person, just a ......."

Speaking of this, Ma Chao paused slightly for a while, and then said frankly: "Don't hide it from my brother, I have three scruples about Cao Cao and that son of heaven today." The reason for not daring to reunite with it is the same. If there is anything wrong with it, I beg my brother to speak up and teach! ”

Guo Jia saw Ma Chao like this, and knew that Ma Chao really had no other thoughts, it was really because of his psychological emotions that affected his wisdom. couldn't help but put his mind at ease, bowed down and bowed to everyone first, and said: "Jia Shi is in a hurry, I don't deliberately tell you that you are unwise, I hope you will forgive me." ”

Everyone naturally returned the salute and waited with bated breath for Guo Jia's explanation. After Guo Jia got up, he asked categorically: "Have you ever thought about what should you do if Cao Mengde can't reunite with the Ma family this time?!" ”

When Ma Chao heard this, he suddenly felt like an enlightenment in his mind, and his face changed greatly. And Guo Jia really continued: "If Cao Mengde can't get the Ma Family Alliance, he can only take refuge in Yuan Shao. At that time, Yuan Shao and the Ma family will fight, and Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others will inevitably help in the war! Liu Biao in Jingzhou was already swaying between Yuan Shao and the Ma family, and after the battle began, he would definitely send troops to recover Nanyang County. As for Yuan Shu, under the general trend, he will also move with the camera and turn around to attack the Yingchuan area. There is also Jiangdong Sun Ce, the heart of the Central Plains is clearly revealed, and the marriage with Cao Cao is to pave the way for this, if the Kwantung War is opened, how can he not come to get a piece of the pie? ! ”

"At that time, it seemed that the Kanto region was in chaos, but in the blink of an eye, a trend of all the princes fighting against the Ma family would be formed. After all, Kanto is still their Kanto, and the Ma family, which rose in Yongliang, is an outsider for them! This is the reason! ”

After saying this, Ma Chao only felt cold sweat all over his body. How many meetings, he has never been as frightened as today, if it weren't for Guo Jia speaking out and analyzing the situation one by one, then the Ma family might really fall into a place of no return!

It is conceivable that if Ma Chao does it, Cao Ang and Cao Tai may return quietly tomorrow, and Yuan Cao Zhan will continue to pretend. But when the Ma family's army comes out, it will usher in a sudden attack by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao! After that, Yingchuan will be attacked by Yuan Shu, and Liu Biao will tear up the alliance and march into the army. Once the southern line falls, the Ma family must not be able to take care of each other, and the only way to retreat is to defend the Tiger Prison and Bishui Pass, and reproduce the trend of the Kanto heroes fighting Dong in the past!

Dong Zhuo's fate is needless to say. But the harsh thing is that when Dong Zhuo was crusaded, the heroes were not the official version, and there were more than 50,000 or 60,000 people in the 13th Route Army, and there were 10,000 or 20,000 people at the least. And now that the momentum of the Kanto region has been achieved, the princes have sent troops of 50,000 or 60,000 at every turn, and the strength of the troops is not what it used to be! What's more, there was no Jingzhou Liu Biao to crusade against Dong Zhuo back then, you must know that after Jingzhou passes Nanyang, you can go straight to Si Li!

At this moment, among the scholars, there are people who are thorough, and after hearing Guo Jia's words, they can't help but show a look of fear. Especially Yang Fu, he bowed directly to Guo Jiashen and said: "Yang Fu is short-witted, talking nonsense, and mistaking the Ma family's foundation. Fortunately, Lord Guo's words were broken, and I was grateful and ashamed........"

"Don't do this, Brother Yishan is serious." Guo Jia hurriedly helped Yang Fu up, turned his head and looked at Ma Chao, and Yang Fu also knew what Guo Jia meant, and then looked at Ma Chao as well.

For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Ma Chao. I have to say that Ma Chao just has a divine quality, and after enlightenment, his thoughts will turn sharply, without any dejection, which is convincing.

"Tomorrow, the banquet will be set up as invited, and all plans will remain the same!"

"My lord! ......." Yang Fu was startled and hurriedly stopped it.

But Ma Chao waved his hand and said with a sly smile: "Cao Cao categorically will never want to be Yuan Shao's younger brother again, but it is far from enough to form an alliance with our Ma family and send a son." Tomorrow, we want Cao Ang to eat ours and vomit it doubly! ”
