In fact, Chen Xi discovered this problem very early. Sometimes he was unable to determine the facts due to mental reasons, but because of historical reasons, he had a vague grasp of the other party's mental ability and made vague guesses. However, there was no rigorous basis for such guesses.

This situation is actually very embarrassing. After knowing the result, just deriving the process will sometimes be too complicated to deduce. In fact, Chen Xi cannot convince others even if he speaks out.

But then Chen Xi accidentally discovered a situation. He knew that the result could not be guessed, but it did not mean that others could not guess the result if they knew it. For people like Jia Xu, they could analyze a lot of things with just a little hint. Situation, natural complementary reason.

Coupled with Chen Xi's extremely fearsome ability that he has always shown, they will naturally consider some of Chen Xi's casually suggestive words.

"Be careful then." Chen Xi waved his hand and said nothing else. As long as he is prepared for this group of people, it will not be easy to defeat them with strategy. They cannot defeat them, but it is not difficult at all to stabilize the situation. .

Liu Ye tilted his head and looked at Chen Xi's back. In the end, he didn't speak. He just silently thought about how to deal with Xun Chen who might be preparing to ambush him next. If Chen Xi hadn't said anything, Liu Ye would have never thought that Xun Chen had already Appear across the river.

[I am afraid that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao reached some agreement, otherwise Xun Chen would not have come back so quickly. Based on the danger on the other side of the river, Liu Ye deduced that Xun Chen was on the opposite side, and then deduced the situation between Yuan and Cao because Xun Chen was on the opposite side.

[No, I'm afraid it's a tacit understanding between Xun Chen and Xun Yu. This can also explain why Xun Chen went to Hangu Pass. ] Liu Ye thought silently that it was just a vague hint from Chen Xi, and he launched a lot of things based on it almost instantly.

[However, if it is just the tacit understanding between Xun Chen and Xun Yu, Cao Cao's heart disease will become a thorn in his heart if he does not express it at this time. Similarly, if Xun Chen does not go through Yuan Shao, with his careful thinking, it is simply impossible. Imagine. 】Liu Ye quickly began to straighten out their relationship.

[This means that Xun Chen must have received Yuan Shao's order to act like this, and Xun Yu probably also had Cao Cao's intention. ] Liu Ye thought with a slight headache that there were not many people he feared, but Cao Cao and Xun Yu were definitely on the list.

[However, Cao Cao has a lot of things going on now, and there are also internal problems with Ma Teng and Han Sui. Although these two people have big problems in intelligence and strategy, they are not weak in strength. Cao Cao's civil servants and generals are extremely good, but their soldiers are still inferior. It will still take some time for Li Jue to solve Ma Teng's problem. 】Liu Ye felt a lot more relieved after figuring it out.

[As for Hanzhong...] Liu Ye thought as he pressed his temples with a headache.

Previously, Liu Zhang sent troops to the east and west. The east route army, with Yan Yan as its commander, led 30,000 troops out of Jiangzhou and detoured to Jingzhou to attack Shangyong. Everyone knew the result, and was blocked by Sun Ce. It was considered a loss of troops and generals, but it was not. It is true that they occupied the west of Yiling, so it is not considered a failure.

Of course, if we include the fact that Zheng Du was captured and Liu Ba went north to join Sili after the rebellion, the losses were actually very heavy. However, Zhang Song could not withstand Zhang Song's deception, and he also expanded his territory by hundreds of miles. It's also true.

Although Liu Zhang felt a little sorry for losing Zheng Du, he did not punish Zhang Song and Yan Yan. He just ordered people to treat Zheng Du's family well, and then sent people to Jingzhou to see if he could talk to Sun Ce about exchanging Zheng Du back. In this regard, although Liu Zhang is weak, he is indeed kind-hearted.

As for Liu Ba, Liu Zhang didn't have much impression. Although he had been here for more than a year and was indeed capable, he didn't make Liu Zhang feel that he was so important that he didn't have time to play.

Before he said that, he came from Jingzhou and lived here as a guest. Now that he ran away, Liu Zhang didn't have much to say. At most, he could say that people's hearts are not ancient.

In this way, Liu Zhang naturally had no intention of transferring the West Route Army back. Zhang Ren, Wu Yi, Meng Da and others showed their talents, first occupied Mianyang, and then attacked Nanzheng. Their momentum was extraordinary. If they could win it in one go In Nanzheng, I am afraid that the possibility of Liu Zhang taking over Yizhou is very high.

[Under such circumstances, it is inevitable for Zhang Lu and the others to ask for help from Yongliang. Without Li Jue and the others, as well as Cao Cao and Ma Teng, compared to the battle between us and Yuan Shao in the Central Plains, as long as Cao Cao is not blind, he is very likely to choose Hanzhong. In the same way, Han Sui would definitely advise Ma to send troops to Hanzhong. 】

Liu Ye's thoughts wandered further and further, and finally he began to think about what he should do from the perspective of the overall situation in the world.

[In this way, it is almost destined that Hanzhong's request for help will inevitably lead to a conflict between Ma Teng and Cao Cao. In this way, I feel at ease. 】Liu Ye casually glanced across the Yellow River, turned around and left. Chen Xi had long been nowhere to be found.

Just as Chen Xi felt and Liu Ye guessed, Xun Chen had already returned to Puyang, Yanzhou, but kept it secret, waiting for a fatal blow when Liu Bei's partial army crossed the river.

"Military advisor, why are you looking so sad?" Guo Yuan asked.

"Cao Mengde has become bigger." Xun Chen sighed and said. When he saw Xun Yu's carriage at Hanguguan, he knew that his every move was under Cao Cao's attention. Although he had expected it, But when he actually saw it, Xun Chen was still a little frightened. Cao Cao's strength increased rapidly.

"Isn't it wrong for Cao Sikong to become a big man? He and the lord have been good friends since childhood, and he has been our ally from a very early age." Guo Yuan asked puzzledly.

Although Guo Yuan is not stupid, Zhong Yao taught him the art of war on the battlefield and did not teach him politics. With Zhong Yao's wisdom, he naturally knew that if he played politics, Guo Yuan would have no future at all. On the contrary, If you focus on the art of war, you might still be able to achieve something.

"It's good to be big, but it's bad to be too big." Xun Chen sighed and said. He thought of Xun Yu he met at Hangu Pass, and inadvertently discovered that he could no longer clearly grasp the other person's thoughts. .

"Forget it, just defend the riverside well. I will take care of the rest." Xun Chen shook his head and said nothing more. He was still thinking about the question Xun Yu asked him when he left Hangu Pass.

"Is Yuan Benchu ​​really the most suitable master in your heart?" After Guo Yuan left, Xun Chen silently repeated Xun Yu's plain inquiry, but his heart couldn't help but feel ups and downs!

"Regardless of whether it is true or not, how can I, Xun Chen, be shaken for you?" Xun Chen calmed down, took a deep breath and said silently, suppressing his desire to think carefully. Once some things are uncovered, it is difficult to close them again. . (To be continued.)
