For a time, Yuan Cao each set up three armies, Cao Cao's side, Lu Bu's hand descended to Zang Ba to guard Qing and Xu; Yu Ban, Li Diantun on the river; Cao Ren's army was stationed in Guandu. It can be said that all the main generals in Cao's camp have been deployed by Cao Cao on the northern border. Yuan Shao's side is naturally the same. However, the two armies were separated by 80 miles, each with deep ravines and high bases, but they held each other without fighting.

Obviously, this is just a pre-arranged arrangement, and it does not mean a direct war, indicating that the future military center of gravity is here. This is also a matter of course, Yuan Shao has now unified the entire north, even if he does not want to forge ahead, in order to prevent the invasion of others, he must deploy heavy troops in the south.

In short, at this time, Yuan Shao was actually still debating whether to invade the south immediately, or whether he should delay it for a while, and wait until the internal governance was done well, and then try to go south. On this point, led by Tian Feng, he did not advocate an immediate all-out attack, he advocated taking his time and slowly consuming Cao Cao; Then the trial and others supported an immediate attack and wiped out Cao Cao in one go.

This is definitely a public statement of public reasonableness, mother-in-law said that mother-in-law is reasonable, perhaps from the bottom of the spectrum, Yuan Shao has an advantage, very suitable for playing slowly, but look at these years, although Cao Cao has experienced several ups and downs, but its growth rate is definitely much faster than Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao now has the emperor in hand, if it drags on for a long time, no one can guarantee what kind of changes will happen.

Don't look at Yuan Shao's unification of the four northern states now, but don't forget, this also means that once Yuan Shao doesn't fight Cao Cao, he will stop moving, and there will always be only these four states. But what about Cao Cao. If you don't fight Yuan Shao, Cao Cao can also beat Liu Biao. can beat Sun Ce, and even go to Yizhou. Far from it. Let's just say that once Cao Cao defeats Sun Ce and occupies Jiangdong, when the time comes, the strength between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who is strong and who is weak, is uncertain!

Moreover, at this time, Yuan Shao has just defeated Gongsun Zhan, and his morale is winning, on the other hand, Cao Cao's side. Most of them still seemed a little frightened, and even many ministers thought that Cao Cao was not an opponent, and they were looking for this retreat in advance. Such a good opportunity, if you don't cherish it and let it go, wait until the future, your internal rectification will be good, but the morale is no longer there, and Cao Cao's side is estimated to not be fluctuating. At that time, even if he can defeat Cao Cao, will it be easy?

Tian Feng's idea, of course, may be small. But it will definitely be time-consuming and labor-intensive; The idea of trial and matching can be completed in one battle, and the key risk is not necessarily greater than the former.

But. Yuan Shao has always been indecisive, this kind of ambiguous thing. Obviously, it will give Yuan Shao a headache again. Just, very quickly. The character who affects the balance appears, that's right, that's Guo Tu!

Guo Tu is a person, and it is difficult to say about other talents, but he thinks about it, and his kung fu is absolutely first-class! The first two plans, for Yuan Shao's camp, which is better or worse, may indeed be a little uncertain, but what about Yuan Shao? Don't forget, people have dreams, ambitions, and ambitions! Whether it is a dream, a grand wish, or a big ambition, it is usually to be completed by yourself in your lifetime! Those who are handed over to posterity are usually either cowards or losers.

Princes like Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who have been fighting in all directions for many years, who don't dream of dominating the world and establishing the cause of hegemony! Of course, from the perspective of the family, it may be safer to leave it to the son to do it for several generations, but from a personal point of view, there are a few people who do not want everything to be done by themselves. Like Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, one generation has established meritorious deeds for all generations, and has been worshiped and admired for thousands of generations? !

If Yuan Shao is ten years younger, then Guo Tu may be on Tian Feng's side, but now, Yuan Shao is a grandfather, and Yuan Shao's sons have already married wives and had children. Even if he can really dominate the world in the end, will he still enjoy it?!

It can be said that Cao Cao in the future Battle of Chibi and Yuan Shao today have similar ideas. Thinking that they have the chance to win and will not lose, that is just a prerequisite, the key is that they are not willing to wait, and maybe they can't afford to wait.

Therefore, when Guo Tu and others also jumped out to support the dispatch of troops, and Xu You and Xun Chen also agreed to this proposal, which was in line with Yuan Shao's intentions, so Yuan Shao finally decided to send troops to attack Cao Cao and began to discuss the matter of raising troops.

In ancient times, wars, or wars in any period, were naturally attacked by public opinion. It is usually necessary to label oneself as a righteous one, especially if the party that takes the initiative to attack, and must be justified. So Guo Tu suggested,

"With the righteousness of the Ming Dynasty, you must count the evils of the exercises, gallop through the counties, condemn the crimes, and then justify the name."

Yuan Shao thinks that it is good, just kidding, others may not care, but he Yuan Shao will always care about this kind of rules and regulations the most. If there is no such thing, how can he let Yuan Shao fight!

So, Yuan Shao ordered Chen Lin, who had the best writing under his command, to draft the essay. The famous "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao" in history was born

"Gai Wenming is planning to control the situation in danger, and the loyal ministers are worried that it will be difficult to establish power. It is because there are extraordinary people, and then there are extraordinary things; If there is something extraordinary, then make extraordinary contributions. The husband is not the same, and the solid is not what the people want...... Sikong Cao Cao: My grandfather often served Teng, and he was a demon with Zuo Coffin and Xu Huang, gluttonous and unrestrained, hurting and abusing the people; Father Song, begging □ to raise, because of the stolen position, the money and money, the right to lose, the theft of the Dingsi, and the overturning of heavy weapons. the eunuch and leave the ugly, there is no virtue, the ticket is cunning, and it is so chaotic...... Therefore, Jiujiang is too guarded to let ...... The late Taiwei Yang Biao...... Those who have the head will be sealed with 5,000 households and rewarded with 50 million. If the ministry favors the generals and the officials, don't ask. Guangyi is entrusted, Bunyan is rewarded, proclaimed to the world, and Xian makes it difficult to know that the Holy Dynasty is persecuted. Like a law! Well, well, wonderful~~wonder~~wonder~~~~"

"Ahh

Guo Jia woke up from the bed violently.

"Husband, what's wrong? Got a nightmare? Is there anything else you feel unwell with? Zhen Mi gently helped Guo Jia wipe the sweat from his forehead beside him.

"I'm fine, don't worry, I guess I had a nightmare." Guo Jia sat up, exhaled twice, and then shouted outside,

"Ming'er! Tomorrow! ”

"Young Master? What's up? Ming'er, who was in the outer room, was woken up and didn't complain at all, asking while getting dressed.

"Go and find Liu Ye for me." Guo Jia said suddenly.

"Liu Ye? Right now? Ming'er couldn't help but ask, it's not dawn yet.

"That's right, call someone to go, and seal his mouth before dawn." Guo Jia said.

It turned out that in his sleep just now, the so-called nightmare that Guo Jia had was that when Chen Lin's "Yuzhou Wen for Yuan Shao" came over, Liu Ye's guy shook his head and recited it all word for word, and then praised "Miao Miaomiao" vigorously. At that time, Guo Jia was in a hurry, and he really wanted to tear Liu Ye's mouth directly, but he couldn't use his strength (→_→ you were really tearing), and then Guo Jia was so anxious to wake up. (To be continued......)
