Chapter 525: No Benefits at All

When Guo Jia went to Liu Bei's place, where did he ask for help, it was all to anger Liu Bei.

If Liu Bei hadn't been afraid of Zhang Yu, he would have ordered Guo Jia to be executed long ago.

Especially when Liu Bei saw Guo Jia still looking leisurely and leisurely, he was even more angry.

However, why is Guo Jia so angry with Liu Bei?

Of course Guo Jia did it on purpose.

So doesn't Guo Jia want Liu Bei to cooperate to resolve the crisis in Youzhou?

Of course not, Guo Jia naturally has his own plans.

Although Liu Bei didn't do anything to Guo Jia, he also issued an order to drive Guo Jia out.

"This Liu Bei, the life is so hard, this Xuzhou Mu is responsible." Guo Jia shook his head and said after coming out.

Yes, Liu Bei, who works as a shepherd in Xuzhou, is living a tight life.

Because Xuzhou is really poor now.

Xuzhou is suffering from a money shortage, and it is very serious.

A large amount of copper coins were sucked away by Zhang Yu, and the people had no copper coins to use, so Xuzhou's tax revenue was naturally greatly reduced.

And Liu Bei has been expanding his troops since he came up, which requires a lot of copper coins.

But Liu Bei's prestige is not enough, and his relationship with some aristocratic families is not very good, so he doesn't have that much money. He raised money everywhere as soon as he came up, but it was still not enough.

In this way, Liu Bei's life is naturally tight.

But Guo Jia doesn't care about this right now, he left Xuzhou and went to Yanzhou.

Cao Cao of Yanzhou worked hard to govern. At this time, he had established his own academy in Yanzhou, and there were more than 100 students in the academy.

Yes, there are only more than a hundred people, unlike Jiangdong College, which has absorbed students from all over the country at this time, and there are already 3,000 students there.

It's not that Cao Cao didn't work hard, but that he couldn't help it.

The children of the aristocratic family, they have family education, but also maintain their own status,

He refuses to go to the academy to study, but the students from the poor family want to go, but there are a few of them who have a solid foundation.

Cao Cao can't start teaching from children.

Unlike Jiangdong, so many elementary colleges have been set up, starting with children.

There are tens of thousands of children studying, and when they grow up, they can provide hundreds of students to colleges and universities every year, and there will be more in the future.

That's why Cao Cao understood how powerful Zhang Yu's foresight was, and at the same time he also understood that it was too difficult to learn from Zhang Yu.

How much courage and financial resources are needed to support such a plan.

A few days later, Guo Jia met Cao Cao and was greatly valued by Cao Cao.

"Bong Xiao, please." During the banquet, Cao Cao toasted Guo Jia.

Guo Jia didn't dare to take it too seriously, so he quickly thanked him in return.

This time, Cao Cao asked all the civil and military personnel present to accompany Guo Jia, which shows how much Cao Cao attaches importance to Guo Jia.

At the banquet, everyone didn't talk too much.

Although Guo Jia came here by order, he was not in a hurry.

On the first day, he accepted Cao Cao's banquet, and on the second day, he used the excuse of being tired from the journey to rest for a day.

On the third day, Guo Jia went to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao received Guo Jia, along with Cheng Yu and Xun You.

"Feng Xiao came to Yanzhou, but for the attack on Liaoxi at the beginning?" Cao Cao said bluntly.

Guo Jia glanced around for a week, then stroked his beard and said, "That's right, it's for this purpose."

Several people present had guessed it, and they were not surprised at all.

Cao Cao asked again: "I don't know what Zhang Zifan wants Cao to do?"

Cao Cao is a decisive person, without the slightest courtesy.

Guo Jia smiled for a while and said, "Of course General Cao sent troops to harass Yuan Shao's rear."

Cao Cao was also not surprised, he pondered for a while and said: "We can discuss it, I wonder what benefits Zhang Yu can give Cao?"

"It's no good." Guo Jia replied immediately.

This answer stunned the other three present.

Is this for help?

"Haha, Brother Feng Xiao, did you get drunk the day before yesterday?" Cheng Yu said with a big laugh.

Guo Jia became serious, and then said sternly: "No, I'm not joking. Let General Cao send troops, my lord will not give any benefits."

The three of them were taken aback again, is there such a thing?

The three of them looked at each other back and forth, but they didn't know what Guo Jia was going to do.

After a while, Cao Cao let it down, leaned half on the chair and said, "In this case, please tell me, Brother Feng Xiao, how do you persuade me to send troops?"

"Everyone in the world knows that my lord is greedy for money and sex, so why would you offer benefits to invite you to send troops? Therefore, it is impossible to ask my lord to give you benefits." Guo Jia said very roguely.

Cao Cao was calm and not angry at all.

Cheng Yu and Xun You frowned, thinking.

After a while, Guo Jia said again: "My lord also said that General Cao is a smart man and will send troops to help. As for how far he can go, it all depends on General Cao's courage."

"This Zhang Zifan really thinks highly of me, and his attitude of asking for help is really unforgettable." Cao Cao said.

"You don't need to tell me that if Yuan Shao gets the territory of the four states and stabilizes his rear, then he will send his troops south, and General Cao will bear the brunt of it," Guo Jia said.

"Is this Zhang Zifan's confidence?" Cao Cao said.

Guo Jia nodded sincerely, and then said: "My lord also said that next time Meng De needs to send troops to contain Yuan Shao, he doesn't need to charge money."

The few people present are all smart people. Guo Jia has already set the bottom line, and then it depends on Cao Cao's attitude.

"Brother Feng Xiao, please go down and rest first." Cao Cao said.

Guo Jia stood up, saluted them, and left by himself.

"This Zhang Yu is really unique." Xun You shook his head and said.

Cao Cao was silent for a while and then said: "Two military advisers, should we send troops to help Zhang Yu?"

Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Yu is obviously very confident, we are sure we know the reason why lips are dead and teeth are cold."

Xun You also said: "This Yuan Shao is already a giant, with millions of troops, and he has already shown his teeth to us. Zhang Yu's request is really hard to refuse."

Both Cheng Yu and Xun You are sending troops intentionally.

This dispatch of troops is a major event, and Cao Cao has to be cautious.

Cao Cao nodded, and then said: "Sending troops must be dispatched, but what is the scale and to what extent?"

This is the hardest, and it's what gives them a headache.

To send troops is to send troops, even if you don't fight Yuan Shao, you must try your best to restrain him, and you can't let him easily destroy Zhang Yu.

After destroying Zhang Yu, Yuan Shao can only send troops to attack Yanzhou or Xuzhou, and will not attack other places.

And the most likely is to invade Cao Cao.

Therefore, trying to delay Yuan Shao is to buy time for himself.

Both Zhang Yu and Guo Jia understood this, so when they came to persuade them, they didn't make any big sense, or they didn't say anything, and they didn't even promise any benefits.

When asked how many troops to send, Cheng Yu and Xun You had different opinions.

Cheng Yu asked Cao Cao to actually invade Qingzhou. It would be best if he could occupy a part of Qingzhou.
