Chapter 890 The secret of Bohai Sea
Sun Ce was surprised to hear Xun You agree to plan with Guo Jia. This did not conform to Xun You's personality. But when he saw Guo Jia's proud look, Sun Ce understood again.
Xun You was not willing to express his opinions, but was unwilling to express his opinions casually. Whether he was willing to say it depends on the person or the time. If the person and the time were right, he was still willing to express himself. The so-called "not being able to speak the other person, he would be disloyal; getting the other person but not speaking, he would be disloyal. At present, this occasion is very rare, both human and time, and he was stimulated by Guo Jia, and he also had the desire to express himself, so he accepted Guo Jia's challenge.
This was not only a plan made by Guo Jia for Xun You, but also an opportunity to create for Xun You. Xun You naturally understood, so he happily responded.
"Knowing your own and knowing your opponent will not fight for a hundred battles. The general's opponent is Yuan Shao, so you should first understand who Yuan Shao is."
Guo Jia cleared his throat and gave the opening remark. Sun Ce was excited, raised his ears and focused. He and Guo Jia had discussed the general trend of the world many times, but his mind changed with the situation, the situation was changing, and people were changing, and no one would remain unchanged. He had a deep understanding of this. Two years ago, he was full of confidence when he first arrived in this world, thinking that he was a prophet, but now he realized that even if historical records are not all lies, they are at least one-sided.
Who would have thought that Yuan Shao was the real boss of the Three Kingdoms era?
He will change, and Yuan Shao will also change. As far as historical records are concerned, the contrast between Yuan Shao's wise and decisive early stage and his confusion in the later stage is often shocking. Even the brief records in history can make people shocked, and the reality in reality is even more powerful than historical records. In the first year of Chuping, he became the leader of the alliance and led the princes of Shandong to fight against Dong, defeated Gongsun Zan in the fourth year of Jian'an, and occupied four states. Then in the seventh year of Jian'an, he died of vomiting blood. It took only twelve years to complete the most brilliant to lonely turning point in his life.
"I have been to Hebei and met Yuan Shao several times. From my perspective, Yuan Shao has both self-confidence and inferiority, and is extremely strong, which makes him both generous and narrow-minded, kind and cruel, forbearing and irritable, rational and crazy. The transition between them seems to be irregular, but it is actually very simple, it depends on whether he has touched his dignity..."
Guo Jia was walking back and forth while shaking the feather fan. In the winter, his feather fan was whistling and whistling. Because he tried too hard, some feathers were thrown out and flying around him, but he didn't notice it. He just analyzed Yuan Shao's personality with an eloquent leap in his mind. His thoughts were extremely leaps. He talked about Yuan Shao's youth, and then talked about now. If he didn't listen carefully, he would not be able to keep up with his rhythm at all.
"Yuan Shao ran out and his goal was aimed directly at the Bohai Sea. Why did he go to the Bohai Sea? There are two reasons: one is that his goal is Jizhou. The Bohai Sea is on the eastern boundary of Jizhou and on the seaside. You can take Jizhou to advance, and you can go across the sea to Liaodong. The other is that he has made arrangements in the Bohai Sea, but he didn't expect to use it on himself at that time."
"What arrangement?" Sun Ce interrupted Guo Jia curiously.
Guo Jia was stunned and then looked at Xun You. "Gongda, can you explain?"
Xun You was stunned and his mouth twitched. Guo Jia stared at Xun You in a blind eye. Xun You moved his body in embarrassment and bowed. "When today I was originally named King of Bohai. According to the story of this dynasty, after the young emperor ascended the throne, he should have settled. When the late emperor was alive, he was willing to make a fortune but could not, so he could only retreat to the second best. The general arranged some people in Bohai, hoping to assist King of Bohai to be at ease with the throne, and he would not have to think about it."
Guo Jia laughed. "Gongda, why are you talking so obscurely? What are you trying to assist the Bohai King? Just want to eradicate the roots and cause an accidental death. Yuan Shao is not only the leader of the party, but also the leader admired by the heroes of the world, and there are many people who like to be assassins."
Guo Jia said while looking at Xun You jokingly, with his eyes joking. Sun Ce could see clearly and was frightened. He knew that Xun You was an assassin. He and He Yong once wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but there was an accident and failed. In addition to them, Cao Cao also served as an assassin. Unofficial history records that he had assassinated Zhang Rang but failed. In the Romance, it was changed to offering a seven-star sword to assassinate Dong Zhuo. But there were indeed people in history who planned to assassinate Dong Zhuo. The man was named Wu Fu, who was from Runan. Like Yuan Shao, he was once a clerk in General He Jin's mansion, and should also be a follower of Yuan Shao.
It turned out that Yuan Shao went to Bohai because he had already set up a bureau in Bohai. When the Shao Emperor ascended the throne, the King of Bohai became the king. Later, the King of Bohai was renamed King of Chenliu, and Zhang Miao was immediately moved from the cavalry commander to the prefect of Chenliu. Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo disrupted the bureau and wanted to abolish the Shao Emperor and establish King of Chenliu. Yuan Shao was forced to flee, and Bohai became his base instead.
Zhou Yu tapped the desk with Yu Ruyi and chuckled, "Guo Fengxiao, talk about the serious business."
Guo Jia said whispered. "Hahaha, I have been talking about the serious business. Why do you say this? This matter explains two characteristics of Yuan Shao: he will make plans and then act, and he must arrange anything before doing anything to be done in case of unexpected situations. This is one of them; he regards himself as a leader, and he has never lacked followers around him, and his power is the world. This is the advantage and also the disadvantage. He will make plans and then make decisions. Once something unexpected happens and does not follow the scheduled plan, he will be disorganized. He regards himself as a leader, and he will not tolerate offense from others. Anyone who touches his dignity, no matter who he is, must be eliminated and quickly."
Guo Jia turned around and looked at Sun Ce. "Unfortunately, Yuan Gaolu is one of them. He was born as the most untouchable scale in Yuan Shao."
Hearing this, Sun Ce already understood what Guo Jia meant. He said lightly: "Even if he is willing to let me go, I will not let him go. Before General Yuan passed away, he left three last words, one of which was to kill Yuan Shao no matter what."
Guo Jia had known this sentence for a long time, and Zhou Yu knew it, so they were all very calm. Xun You was shocked when he heard it for the first time. The Yuan brothers were really different and regarded each other as mortal enemies. His eyes rolled and he looked around quietly, knowing that Sun Ce's words were deliberately said to him, and Guo Jia and Zhou Yu had known it for a long time. In other words, from now on, Sun Ce had included him on the list of this confidant. It is conceivable that Guo Jia wanted him to force him to express his attitude today. He just asked him to tell that Yuan Shao's layout in Bohai was just the beginning, and it would be impossible not to say it.
This sentence reached Yuan Shao's ears, and it would be impossible for him to join Yuan Shao again.
Guo Jia nodded. "The general and Yuan Shao are destined opponents, and there will be a battle sooner or later. But this is an accident. At least for him, the general has never been his planned opponent. So in the past year or more, he has never focused on the general, thinking that Yuan Tan and Zhou brothers are enough to trap the general from both north and south. Even if the general defeated the Zhou brothers, he still thought that Liu Yao could turn the tide and stabilize Yangzhou. Now the general takes Yangzhou like a bag. In less than a year, only Yuzhang is left in the six counties of Yangzhou, and he realized his mistake."
