Chapter 752 First thanks to Guo Jia
Cao Cao came to the main seat and made an opening speech for the banquet.
"Everyone is quiet."
The scene became quiet in an instant. In fact, those literati were originally very quiet, but today there are not only literati, but also a series of military generals, and even military generals accounted for the majority. Some people probably had been secretly happy, which made them seem a little noisy and messy. Of course, Cao Cao didn't care. Cao Cao was rigorous in his military administration, but he also had distinct characteristics. If these generals dared to do this, they would drag them out and chop them directly, and at least they would have to beat dozens of big boards. But the banquet was just something that made people relaxed and enjoyable. Cao Cao was a person who was not particular about the details, so how could he care about such trivial matters? On the contrary, the happier and more noisy everyone, the happier Cao Cao was, and this was the more loved by the military generals!
The soldier is worthy of being a soldier. When he heard Cao Cao's words, he instantly returned to quiet. The scene was silent, from extremely noise to extremely quiet. It was a slightest thing to hear about the falling needle. It was plain, adding a kind of tension on the battlefield to this banquet scene that should have been a joyful one.
"I believe everyone here knows why there was such a banquet today. That's right, Yuan Shao has been defeated by us!" Cao Cao said excitedly.
Although everyone has known this kind of thing for a long time and has been excited, the arrogant Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao who so many people thought he could not defeat him at the time were indeed defeated by Cao's army. Every time I mentioned this, I would be very excited. This is honor! Everyone at the scene has made efforts in it, and because of this sense of honor, people have more sense of belonging!
Wow!
Cao Cao instantly ignited the atmosphere at the scene. Especially the group of soldiers, they all became excited and even shouted long live. Fortunately, Cao Cao had not yet touched this sensitive topic at this time. He quickly said that under the leadership of Emperor Xian, he was ordered to fight against rebellion and was decreed to the destiny, so he succeeded. Therefore, this "Long Live" became very natural.
"However, the Yuan family has not been destroyed and the world is not determined. We cannot be complacent just because of a little success. The military strategy says: arrogance will be defeated. I hope to take this opportunity to inspire all the generals, continue to work hard, unify the country, and restore peace to the world!" Cao Cao waved his hand and said.
"yes!"
Afterwards, Cao Cao talked about some scenes again, and then finally got to the point. Celebration banquets and Celebration banquets. The key is celebrations. Otherwise, what is the difference between them and ordinary banquets? Under normal circumstances, at celebration banquets, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one is promoted and made a fortune. Then, the banquet will be more lively.
Whether it is drinking alcohol for pride or drinking alcohol for loss, at least this wine will not be wasted.
"This time, the reason why I was able to defeat Yuan Shao is all your efforts. Whether it was fighting on the front line or supporting in the rear, there were people who were successful. However, in today's occasion, first of all, I would like to thank someone for defeating Yuan Shao. He made great contributions. If it weren't for him, there might not be a celebration banquet here today!" Cao Cao said abruptly. The scene that was originally lively again instantly became quiet again. If it were to say that it was a little nervous before, then it was really nervous now.
Guo Jia's eyelids twitched below. Sure enough, Cao Cao immediately looked at Guo Jia. The two of them looked at each other from the air, and sparks seemed to have sparks in the air.
"What the lord must be talking about is Xun Yu. If it weren't for his centralized dispatch, the front line would have been unable to hold on." Guo Jia said first.
"Where is it, Feng Xiao was joking. How can I compare these small things I did with the soldiers fighting on the front line?" Xun Yu replied immediately.
"That must be Xu Youluo. He abandoned the darkness and turned to the light and offered advice to Wuchao. In the battle of Guandu, our army was able to reverse the battle, and Xu You made an indelible contribution." Guo Jia turned around and said, this time he should be on the front line, and it was reasonable and well-founded.
As a result, Xu You shook his head and said,
"You're welcome, you're so kind. I'm not sure about this little contribution. Mr. Guo said that he would definitely give me a thumbs up when he reversed the situation."
Good guy, isn't it obvious enough now? In fact, it was very obvious from the beginning. Cao Cao must be targeting him Guo Jia. But now Guo Jia has seen that Xun Yu, Xu You and others have already clearly understood what Cao Cao planned to do. Otherwise, it would be surprising that Xu You is modest. Xu You, a person who is afraid that the whole world will not know that he has made great contributions, would have to refuse politely at this time. This kind of thing is absolutely abnormal!
Otherwise, if Xu You mentioned it on his own initiative, Guo Jia would have said everything to this point. Xu You would definitely be very proud and would accept it without hesitation.
Guo Jia felt that this is an enhanced version of the heroes when cooking wine. Cao Cao talked to Liu Bei in private, neither Yuan Shao nor Liu Biao were around. But now, Xun You and Xu You were all around. Guo Jia had already felt the deep malice, not that Xun Yu and others were targeting him or trying to harm him, but as if Guo Jia was no longer a member of Cao's camp, and they were all from Cao Cao's camp, tied together, while Guo Jia stood in it as an outsider. Naturally, he would be isolated and naturally excluded.
"Haha, Fengxiao, don't refuse humbly. This time, who can defeat Yuan Shao, besides you, Guo Jia, can you make great contributions? I, Cao Cao, don't thank you Guo Jia first, who should I thank? Can anyone else afford it?" Cao Cao finally said this sentence directly.
Damn, Guo Jia almost couldn't help but jump out of the chair! What did he do? Do you Cao Cao dare to tell me in detail about what Guo Jia did?! Since the Battle of Guandu, Guo Jia has been playing soy sauce all the way. Although he was on the front line, did he actually show any eye-catching performance? Including this command of the Western Front battlefield, he also fell down early. Everything behind was done by Zhong Yao. Even if he counts this kind of thing on Guo Jia, Guo Jia can't afford to be such a great contribution!
Before, Cao Cao was worried that Guo Jia was so powerful that he was shocked, but now, Cao Cao deliberately brought Guo Jia to the position of shocking the master. Perhaps that's right, Cao Cao should thank Guo Jia first and thank all the credits Guo Jia from the beginning to the present. Cao Cao wanted to end Guo Jia in advance, and he would no longer use you, Guo Jia in the future.
It’s like a company is going to fire someone, calculate all your achievements since you entered the company, thank you for your efforts, and give you a lot of rewards at one time, and then, bye bye.
Cao Cao was simply saying: Guo Jia, it’s time for you to retire early.
Chapter completed!
