Cao Cao adopted Guo Jia's suggestion and worshiped Liu Bei as General of the Left and Marquis of Yicheng Ting.
But after he made wine with green plums, he was deceived by Liu Bei's weakness and actually gave Liu Bei the opportunity to swim in the sea!
The puppet emperor Yuan Shu led his remnants of troops northward to seek refuge with his brother Yuan Shao. Liu Bei volunteered to lead troops to intercept him!
Cao Cao actually agreed!
By the time Guo Jia knew it and wanted to stop it, it was too late!
He could only sigh helplessly: "Even if I don't kill Liu Bei, I can't let him go. Liu Bei's departure will definitely become a serious problem for the lord."
When Liu Bei went there, after annihilating Yuan Hou, he did not return to Xudu, but went to Xuzhou!
Attacked and killed Che Zhou, the governor of Xuzhou appointed by Cao Cao, and captured Xuzhou!
When Cao Cao heard that Liu Bei had betrayed him and captured Xuzhou, he was furious and wanted to send troops to attack Liu Bei!
But he was worried that Liu Bei and Yuan Shao would collude to attack his front and back!
Guo Jia asserted at this time that Yuan Shao was indecisive, and as long as Cao Cao acted quickly enough, there was no need to worry about Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao adopted Guo Jia's advice and sent troops to attack Liu Bei quickly!
Defeat Liu Bei in one battle and conquer Guan Yu!
But Yuan Shao missed the opportunity to defeat Cao Cao because his son was ill!
Sure enough, everything was as Guo Jia expected!
…
Ming dynasty.
"This Guo Jia can be said to be a god at predicting events!"
In the Forbidden City, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was full of surprise.
If Jia Xu has taken the strategy of calculating everything to the extreme, then Guo Jia has taken the word "knowing things like a god" to an extremely high level!
Whether it was for Liu Bei or Yuan Shao, Guo Jia made extremely accurate predictions.
This requires an extreme insight into the human heart to achieve such accuracy!
This person is really not simple!
At this time, the gold list screen suddenly changed, and in the blink of an eye, it had arrived on a huge battlefield!
This place is called Guandu!
It was the place where Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought.
However, Yuan Shao's territory and military strength were four to five times that of Cao Cao!
In this battle, the power disparity is extremely great!
Both Cao Cao and his counselors and generals have serious lack of confidence in this battle!
Guo Jia strongly advised Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to fight decisively, and put forward the famous "Ten Victories and Ten Defeats Theory"!
Yuan Shao had ten defeats, while Cao Cao had ten victories!
You won’t know until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it!
It turns out that Cao Cao is stronger than Yuan Shao in so many ways!
Even though there is a slight exaggeration, it is basically the truth!
Except for having more soldiers and food, Yuan Shao could not compare with Cao Cao in any other aspect!
After reading this, Cao Cao was so confident that he announced the theory of ten victories and ten defeats to the entire army!
To improve the morale of the army!
But on Cao Cao's side, Yuan Shao had just strengthened his determination to fight, but news came from the south that Sun Ce, the little overlord who was separatist in Jiangdong, planned to attack Xudu!
This news made Cao Cao and Sun Jian panic!
He had gathered all his forces to fight Yuan Shao. At this time, Xu Du felt extremely empty!
If Sun Ce really launches a surprise attack, the entire capital will be in danger!
Once Xu Du is lost, the army on the front line will inevitably collapse. By then, Cao Cao will die without a place to bury him!
Many of Cao Cao's subordinates even began to secretly communicate with Yuan Shao to find a way out for themselves!
But Guo Jia told Cao Cao not to panic, and asserted that Sun Ce was about to die at the hands of a common man and would not pose a threat to Xu Du!
Let Cao Cao rest assured and fight Yuan Shao!
However, how can Cao Cao believe this?
Sun Ce was far away in Jiangdong, and he was young and strong. He was known as the little overlord in his prime, and he had outstanding military strength. Looking at the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, how many people could kill him?
Guo Jia now asserted that Sun Ce was about to die. Who could believe it?
However, a few days later, the spies came to report to Cao Cao that Sun Ce had been assassinated!
Cao Cao was immediately stunned!
And everyone in China in front of the gold list screen was also stunned!
It’s simply out of this world!
This is no longer predicting events, this is predicting the future!
This Guo Jia must be a guess, right?
But it’s a bit too accurate!
They had to wonder, does this Guo Jia know some divination and prophecy, and can he know the secrets of heaven?
…
Da Qin.
"Is there a possibility?"
Li Si's eyes flashed slightly, "The assassins who assassinated Sun Ce were sent by Guo Jia..."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the officials changed.
This is a new idea!
This possibility cannot be ruled out!
If it was an assassin sent by Guo Jia, it would explain why Guo Jia could accurately predict Sun Ce's death!
However, if this is the case, then this Guo Jiake will be even more terrifying!
Sun Ce was the majestic lord of Jiangdong and a fierce general in his own right. It was not an easy task to murder him.
But Guo Jia was able to do it easily. Doesn't that mean that this counselor under Cao Cao has great hands and eyes?
After Sun Ce died, Cao Cao had no worries and could devote all his strength to a decisive battle with Yuan Shao.
Although Yuan is strong and Cao Cao is weak, the balance of victory is gradually tilting towards Cao Cao!
Yuan Shao's vanguard generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, were both killed by Guan Yu!
At the critical moment, counselor Xu You took Yuan Shao's military plane and defected to Cao Cao!
He informed Cao Cao of the grain garrison area of Yuan Shao's army and presented Cao Cao with a thorough plan to burn grain and grass!
Cao Cao personally led his troops to burn Wuchao, and attacked and killed Yuan Shao's general Chunyu Qiong who was left behind to guard Wuchao in one fell swoop, successfully burning Yuan's army's food and grass!
This battle became the turning point in the Guandu War!
Without food and grass, the morale of Yuan Shao's army was in chaos!
Cao Cao finally defeated Yuan Shao in Cangting!
Yuan Shao only led 800 cavalry and fled back to Yecheng. Out of shame and anger, he vomited blood and died soon after!
Cao Cao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to attack and annihilate Yuan Shao's remaining forces in one fell swoop, but Guo Jia dissuaded him!
Guo Jia asserted that after Yuan Shao's death, Yuan Shao's disciples would definitely attack each other. It would be better to pretend to conquer Liu Biao southward and wait and see what happens!
How could Cao Cao, who had experienced so many divine prophecies, doubt Guo Jia's prophecies now? Immediately announced the master class, and deliberately released the news of the Southern Expedition!
Yuan Shao's sons Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang learned about Cao Cao's southern expedition, and they started fighting among themselves!
Cao Cao, reap the benefits!
Yuan Tan couldn't defeat Yuan Shang, so he surrendered to Cao Cao and lured the wolf into the house!
Cao Cao naturally agreed happily. He first defeated Yuan Shang and then dealt with Yuan Tan. He defeated Yuan Shao's two sons at a very small cost and annexed Yuan Shao's vast territory!
One bite and I became a big fat man!
Among them, Guo Jia is indispensable!
However, although the Yuan family's territory was completely annexed by Cao Cao, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi ran to the grassland and defected to Wuhuan Shanyu, Tadun!
Cao Cao originally wanted to ignore it, but Guo Jia came up with a clever plan at this time, allowing Cao Cao to make a surprise attack on the grassland, expedition to Wuhuan, and eradicate the roots!
This strategy was collectively opposed by Cao Jun!
Cao's army had just experienced a major battle, and before it had even rested, it had to go on an expedition again. Moreover, it was running thousands of miles deep into the grasslands. How dangerous was this?
In case of defeat, I am afraid that I will die without a burial place!
Is it worth taking such a risk just for Yuan's two boys?
