After Xun Yu's analysis, Cao Cao also felt that the situation was completely clear. Not only was he not at a disadvantage, but he had a considerable advantage!

Other civil and military officials with different ideas also felt the same after hearing this.

"seemingly! Following Cao Cao has a better chance of winning than following Yuan Shao! It seems that we have to continue to wait and see and stay on Cao Cao's side for the time being. What if Cao Cao wins?"

There are quite a few people who hold this idea!

"In this case, then just follow what you said, Wen Ruo!"

"Immediately send envoys to Jia Wu and Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Army to persuade them to send troops to Yuan Shao after we go to war with Yuan Shao!"

"In addition, all armies must quickly prepare for war!"

"Here!"

All the civil and military officials took the order and quickly began to take action.

A few days later, Cao Cao successfully reached cooperation with Jia Wu and Zhang Yan. Jia Wu and Zhang Yan successively deployed troops and horses on the border to intimidate Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao could not help but He did not send out soldiers and horses separately to deal with it. The two sides added up and divided his army of 100,000. Currently, he only has more than 300,000 soldiers and horses left at his disposal.

"Damn it! What a good Cao Mengde, I didn’t expect you to play dirty tricks! This is simply unreasonable!"

"Guo Tu, what's going on with Zhang Yan? Didn't he form an alliance with us? Why did he defect to Cao Cao now?"

Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu angrily and asked.

"Well...."

After hearing this, Guo Tu defended with a bitter look on his face:"Lord! There is nothing we can do about this! Ever since we eliminated Gongsun Zan and captured Youzhou, he has been on guard against us, and you have also issued orders to target him;"

"Not only did they strictly guard against him and not give him a chance to go down the mountain to plunder, but they also cut off his external business channels. The relationship with him has long been broken!"

"There is nothing that Zhang Yan can do about making such a choice!"

How can you blame him for this kind of thing?

Shouldn't you blame Yuan Shao himself?

You said that since you think Zhang Yan is a threat, you can either beat him to death with a stick, or you can ignore it for the time being and wait for the opportunity to deal with him again.

Do it directly. You have to be like this, clearly targeting and suppressing the other party. Others are not fools, so how can they not be prepared and react?

"this...~."

Yuan Shao really forgot about this, he didn't even frown, and felt a little embarrassed.

He remembered that he seemed to have actually given such an order.

Because Zhang Yan was originally plotted to deal with Jia Wu, but in the end Zhang Yan actually took action and teamed up with Jia Wu to play him.

The original strategy of weakening Zhang Yan and Jia Wu had no effect at all, but made them vigilant.

What can I do?

"Is there any way to deal with it?"

Yuan Shao couldn't answer the question, so he immediately changed the topic and asked instead.

Guo Tu shook his head directly. Obviously, he had no good solution for a while.

Xu You and Jushou also frowned and began to think hard.

For a long time, Jushou raised his hands and said:"My lord, there is no good solution now! The only feasible option may be that we can send people again to contact the Huns, Xianbei people and even Wuhuan people, and ask them to send troops to Zhang Yan and Jia Wu. We do not seek to directly eliminate Zhang Yan, but at least contain their forces so that they can We can completely free up our hands and concentrate our efforts on dealing with Cao Cao;"

"After taking care of Cao Cao, go back and eliminate them"

"Isn't this okay?"

Yuan Shao frowned after hearing this and said:"When we contacted the Huns and the Xianbei people to target Jia Wu, they suffered heavy losses. They already have a lot of objections to us!"

"Especially since Zhang Yan didn't really contribute, it would be impossible for them to send troops against Zhang Yan and Jia Wu now!"

The foreigner is not a fool, and he can't always be a gunman for him.

"Not necessarily!"

At this time, Xu You couldn't help pinching his beard and said:"Although we have made the Huns and Xianbei a little dissatisfied because of what happened before, they hate Jia Wu and Zhang Yan even more;"

"They must be tempted to send troops to deal with Jia Wu and Zhang Yan. Although they may not be willing to take action, everything in this world has a price. If they are unwilling to send troops, it may only be because of insufficient benefits;"

"What if the lord is willing to promise the state to them?"

"What if the lord is willing to provide a certain amount of money and food? I don't believe they are not moved!"

"Um?"

After hearing this, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up slightly. These words made sense, and he just wanted to say something. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"No! Lord! Absolutely not!"

The next moment, Jushou shouted loudly, glared at Xu You and said:"Xu You, what are your intentions for coming up with such a bad idea? You can give money and food, but you can never promise to merge the state!"

"'If this thing leaks out...no no! If you really do this, then this matter will inevitably be exposed. At that time, the Lord will probably be infamy for thousands of years, be stabbed in the spine by everyone in the world, and be cast aside by all people!"

"Joining forces with foreigners to attack the Han people has already affected my lord's reputation, but I can still bear it. However, promising Han land to the foreigners is definitely a way to die. My lord, this method is absolutely impossible!"

"That's right!"

At this time, Guo Tu also ignored Xu You's ugly face and said:"Xu You, have you forgotten that the people in Youzhou and even parts of Jizhou have been plundered and tortured by foreign tribes from the north for generations?"

"If the lord really dares to promise Bingzhou to the foreign tribes in the north, let’s not talk about how other princes, nobles, and Hui in the world will see the lord and react. Aren’t you afraid that the people of Youzhou and even Jizhou will start a riot?"

"You are digging for the lord's foundation! His heart can be killed!"

Speaking of this, Guo Tu immediately saluted Yuan Shao solemnly and said:"My lord, if Xu You wants to do harm to my lord, please punish him for the crime of harming his lord!"

Although Guo Tu knew that it was impossible for Yuan Shao to deal with Xu You.

But he was willing to do it if he could disgust Xu You.

After Xu You heard this, he immediately stared at Guo Tu with a gloomy face. If his gaze could kill someone If so, Guo Tu had been cut to pieces by Xu You at this time.

He didn't hate Jusuke at this time, because Jusuke didn't deliberately target him, he just discussed the matter.

Moreover, he also reacted at this time. What Jusuke said was very important. The truth is, you really can't do this.

At least you can't express your position clearly.[]

Letting go and expressing your opinion directly are not the same thing at all.

"Xu You, what do you say?"

Yuan Shao did not reply to Guo Tu, but looked at Xu You and asked. ps: Please order first, customize, and support!.
