Chapter 278 Killing two birds with one stone

Guan Yu is a phoenix life, and many people know that when Guan Yu followed Liu Bei's dependence on Yuan Shao, he once promoted it as a symbol of Yuan Shao's destiny. However, Guan Yu was defeated and captured in Longyuan. After being released, he did not return to Yuan Shao's tent, but became an assassin, preparing to take the heads of the Yuan brothers and Cao Cao's neck in exchange for a woman. Although he failed in the end, he slapped Yuan Shao hard.

As for Guan Yu later went to the northern border and became the emperor's subordinate, not many people knew about this - after all, it was not a glorious thing, and the fewer people knew, the better - for Yuan Shao, he was more relieved. For Tian Feng and others, he never thought that he would criticize Guan Yu and would have to put it to death and be quick.

There are too many aristocratic families under Yuan Shao. Who would have paid attention to a Hedong warrior from a poor family? If it weren't for Guan Yu's extraordinary force, no one would have known him in a fierce battle with Lu Bu in front of Xingyang City. If the emperor surrendered, he would surrender to the emperor. Even Xun You might return to the court. What is Guan Yu?

Tian Feng is also one of these people, of course, including Guo Tu. But now the old saying is put back, the meaning is somewhat subtle.

The Fengming General Guan Yu surrendered to the emperor. The emperor's strength has been strengthened. You don't say a word. The leader has a Longming General under his command. You want to get rid of it and get it quickly. What does it mean?

To extend it, the emperor can accept Guan Yu who has a phoenix life, but the leader wants to kill the general who has a phoenix life. Are you trying to make the people in the world feel that the leader's demeanor is not as good as the emperor and cannot tolerate others?

These two meanings pushed Tian Feng to an extremely unfavorable situation because he also knew that there was only one person who was truly regarded as an enemy by Yuan Shao: Emperor Liu Bian. He had to compete with Liu Bian in everything. When his force could not surpass Liu Bian, what he could still be proud of was the prestige of the Yuan family in the scholars and the generous and tolerant demeanor of Yuan Shao. Anyone who stimulated Yuan Shao at this point would definitely not have a good end.

Looking at Yuan Shao's face, you can tell that Yuan Shao's attention had been taken away by Guo Tu without knowing it. Tian Feng was anxious and shouted sternly: "Guo Tu, the first thing he knew is you who betrayed Guan Yu. I wonder what good suggestions did you put forward for the leader?"

Yuan Shao frowned even tighter. Guo Tu disdained to answer, and this kind of question was not worth answering. Because this was not the point at all. Instead, he argued with Tian Feng, but lost his identity, which made Yuan Shao dislike. The worse Tian Feng's attitude was, the worse Yuan Shao was in a mood.

Ju Su sighed secretly. Tian Feng was a general idea. But in this kind of verbal argument, he was obviously not Guo Tu's opponent. He stood up and signaled Tian Feng to be calm with his eyes, and said slowly:

"What the leader of the alliance is said. I don't think it's appropriate. What kind of person is the leader? How can he compare with Liu Bian, who has no king? Liu Bian accepts Guan Yu. Does the leader have to accept Cao Cao? The Confucian Sect is the Feng Sect, the leader of the Confucian Sect, a phoenix with a phoenix egg, and a thousand-year-old feud that is irreconcilable with the dragon. The phoenix is ​​a harmonious thing. Guan Yu left behind the leader. It can be seen that he only has the life of a phoenix, but has no phoenix nature, and it is insignificant to stay or leave. The dragon is a villain and is cruel by nature. If Cao Cao backs on the future, how will the leader deal with it?"

Yuan Shao was shocked and couldn't help but sit up straight, nodding to Ju Shu, expressing his gratitude for his reminder.

Guo Tu had to secretly praise Ju Su's counterattack was reasonable and well-founded. It not only resolved his accusations, but also pushed a very serious problem to him. If Cao Cao rebelled in the future, who would bear this responsibility? If he had not discussed with Guo Jia in advance and considered it carefully along the way, he would have no way to refute Ju Su's accusations.

"Cao Cao is just a subspecies dragon. Liu Bian is the real giant dragon. If even Cao Cao can't deal with it, he must be eliminated quickly. How can the leader deal with Liu Bian, how can he kill dragons and phoenixes, and how can he revitalize the Confucian clan?"

Guo Tu was not slow and seemed calm, but the meaning in his words was pressing step by step, constantly teasing Yuan Shao's spirit. No matter how beautiful Ju Su said, Yuan Shao's mentality of competing with Liu Bian cannot change. As long as Yuan Shao's attention is directed to Liu Bian, Cao Cao can avoid being the target of public criticism and achieve his goals.

Ju Su and Tian Feng joined forces, and he was not worried. On the contrary, the more he seemed weak, the greater the possibility of success. Only when Yuan Shao saw the strength of the people of Jizhou would Yuan Shao rely more on the Ru Ying faction. This was something that Tian Feng could not see at all, or he could see it, but could not help it.

Ju Su was a little more peaceful than Tian Fengping, and realized Guo Tu's insidiousness. He immediately avoided fighting and quietly laid a trap for Guo Tu.

"With the view of the public, let's wait for Cao Cao to strengthen his strength?"

Guo Tu knew it well and shook his head: "Otherwise, to make Cao Cao bow his head and obey the orders and provide guidance to the leader, not only need to rely on the leader's phoenix life, but also increase the strength of our army. Cao Cao was able to capture the subspecies dragon, but could he not capture the corresponding divine beasts with the leader's phoenix life? Jizhou is one of the ancient nine states. There are seas in the east, Taihang in the west, Yanshan in the north, and Dahe in the south. There are many big lakes in the state. Everyone is a family of Yizhou. Why can't the leader catch some divine beasts?"

Tian Feng, Ju Su and others looked at each other in a speechless manner. Guo Tu's suggestion prevented them from fighting back, and it was not right, nor was it not right.

After a moment of silence, Ju Su sighed softly: "We are not unwilling to serve the leader. We are really powerless and do not understand our own destiny. Even if we find the divine beast, we cannot make a covenant. We can only do anything."

When Yuan Shao heard this, his face turned blue. This was the most affliction in his heart. As far as he knew, there were at least Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu and Guan Yu around Liu Bian. There were not many people who had never shown their faces, but there were only a handful of people who had realized their fate. At present, except for him and Cao Cao, it seems that they had not yet realized their fate. Xun Yu had realized his fate, but Xun Yu was always close and got closer to Cao Cao.

In terms of talent accumulation, he was not as good as Liu Bian with the support of a noble family, which really made him angry.

Yuan Shao glanced at Guo Tu, and Guo Tu nodded with a smile. Yuan Shao immediately felt relieved. Guo Tu must have a way to solve this problem. Alas, Guo Tu can help. Tian Feng and Ju Su are not caring after all. No wonder Emperor Guangwu was very careful about Hebei people at the time.

Yuan Shao waved his hand and said lightly: "Okay, let's break up, let's discuss it again."

Seeing that Yuan Shao was in a bad mood and the meeting was about to end before the matter was resolved, Tian Feng sighed and left.

Ju Su shook his head helplessly, but Guo Tu was secretly happy. Tian Feng's attitude would push him farther and farther away, and the threat would naturally become smaller and smaller.

Everyone left, Guo Tu was left alone, Yuan Shao frowned and asked, "Punze, how can he capture the divine beast?"

Guo Tu bowed and said, "The leader of the alliance, Ju Su said very well. It is not difficult to capture divine beasts. It is difficult for those who have no one who has realized their fate. Even if they have captured divine beasts, they cannot make a covenant. The most urgent task is to find a way to realize their fate."

"How... can you realize your life?" Yuan Shao was even more helpless. He could meet his life without asking for it. What good way could he do?

"The leader of the alliance, more and more people who have realized their fate are around Liu Bian, which has a great relationship with Liu Bian's improvement in his realm. If Liu Bian's realm improves, the people around him will be grateful. If the leader of the alliance can continue to improve, he will be able to benefit all directions."

Yuan Shao's expression was a little unnatural. He involuntarily touched Sizhao Jian on his waist, glanced at Guo Tu, and his face felt a little hot. Even with Sizhao Jian, his realm did not improve significantly, and Guo Tu's meaning seemed to be saying that there were limited people around him who had realized their lives because his realm was not enough.

"Public rule, how can we improve our realm as soon as possible?"

"The improvement of Liu Bian's realm is related to the fish and dragon dance created by Cai Yong's daughter Cai Yan. The dragon likes water, the phoenix loves mountains, and the Holy Mountain of Fengmen is just around the corner. Why don't the leader climb Mount Tai to calm down? The song of the daily drum "Jiu Shao" can break the realm and shine brightly, and the phoenix comes naturally, and all beasts will dance."

Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed, and then he became depressed again. It is true that Mount Tai is the Holy Mountain of Fengmen, but climbing Mount Tai is a major event in the Confucian Sect. Confucius climbed Mount Tai and the emperors of all dynasties were extremely grand. Now that he has not achieved his achievements and his virtues are not pure, what qualifications are there to climb Mount Tai? If it is spread, it will be laughed at.

"The leader of the alliance is just going to meditate, not Fengshan, who can tell me the truth?" Guo Tu was prepared and immediately offered advice. "Furthermore, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans entrenched Mount Tai, causing trouble for all directions. The leader of the alliance is to follow the heavens and should have entered Mount Tai to clear out the remnants of the Yellow Turbans..."

Yuan Shao suddenly realized and turned angry into joy: "Public, this is indeed a brilliant plan to kill two birds with one stone."

...

Guo Jia hurried out of the camp, took Xun Yu to the tent, and said with a smile: "Brother Wen Ruo, I'm suddenly visiting. Is there any good news?"

Xun Yu looked at Guo Jia: "I have no good news. Judging from your appearance, you should have good news to tell me. I don't know if it is really good news."

Guo Jia smiled mockingly: "Brother Wen Ruo, don't joke about me. You don't know my skills yet? Why did you suddenly leave Songgao Mountain? Is there another breakthrough in your realm?"

Looking at Guo Jia who was talking about him, a shadow flashed through Xun Yu's heart. Guo Jia now not only likes to go against the odds and not follow the right path, but also begins to hide from him. From this point of view, he is a young man after all, and it may have been a serious mistake to let him leave the seclusion early. After this matter is done, he must be taken away. He can't let him be with Cao Cao anymore, otherwise he will be harmed sooner or later.

"Xi Zhi has been to Xuanming Sea for so long, and there is no news at all. I suspect something might have happened." Xun Yu said lightly: "I plan to go to Xuanming Sea to kill the dragon, but there is no suitable divine weapon. You can find a way to get the sword of the Shang Gun and Wu from Sun Ce."

Guo Jia frowned and his eyes became solemn. He looked at Xun Yu and hesitated for a while: "Which dragon do you want to kill?"

Xun Yu lowered his face: "If I want to slaughter Cao Cao's dragon, do I still need to cut off the Gun and Wu sword?"

Guo Jia slapped his head and laughed: "Okay, then I'll find a way to find you the sword of Shang Gun and Wu Dao." He paused, then put away his smile, and said: "Tell you a bad news. Wang Yun fell into Jia Xu's plan. The Guanzhong plan has failed, and it is inevitable that the confrontation between the east and the west is inevitable."
