Chapter 149

"Wenyou, Gongsun Bogui is not a person to be trifled with; he will not let Yuan Benchu succeed!"

Before Li Ru could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Dong Zhuo!

Subsequently, looking at Dong Zhuo, who let him leave, Li Ru felt exceptionally tired in his heart!

Originally, according to his plan!

He only needed to send a small number of iron cavalry to consume Yuan Benchu and Gongsun Bogui in Bingzhou, which would be enough to drag both of them down!

Once that waste Yuan Gonglu took Qingzhou, the overall situation would be settled!

The thirteen provinces of the Great Han!

Those warlords who want to raise troops again will all have to fight province against province!

In this way, once someone is defeated!

They could go straight out of Hulao Pass and solve the heroes of the world!

This is an open plot!

Alas, Dong Zhuo does not listen to him!

The Xiliang iron cavalry and Bingzhou iron cavalry of today no longer have their previous ambition!

The flowery life of Luoyang has worn down Dong Zhuo's fighting spirit!

"Alas!"

With a sigh, Li Ru also bowed and left!

Meanwhile, within Jizhou

"My lord, nowadays Qingzhou is empty; we can take the opportunity to occupy it!"

At this moment, in the Jizhou Provincial Governor's mansion, a young scholar spoke up!

"The land of Bingzhou is bitterly cold, while the land of Qingzhou is fertile; if my lord occupies it, you can rely on the land of two provinces to defeat Gongsun Zan of Youzhou!"

"Fengxiao's words are wrong; Qingzhou is where my lord's brother Yuan Gonglu is; if Fengxiao asks my lord to attack his brother, wouldn't that be telling the people of the world that my lord is killing his own brother!"

A middle-aged scholar stood up and directly retorted!

Hearing the other party's rebuttal, the young scholar immediately became anxious!

"As for the land of Qingzhou, Yuan Gonglu only occupies half of it; how can we not take the rest!"

Nowadays, the chaotic world has arrived, and it is true that Qingzhou is Yuan Gonglu's!

But Yuan Gonglu's Nanyang is being attacked now; where would he have the troops to occupy Qingzhou!

Even if Yuan Gonglu repels Sun Jian!

By the time he waves his troops to attack Qingzhou again, who knows how long it will be!

Do they just sit here and wait?

"Mr. Zhengnan, you must know that if the lord does not take it, others will surely take it!"

Looking at the person who spoke to retort him, Guo Jia also spoke righteously!

"The land of Qingzhou was personally enfeoffed by the current Emperor; if others take it, they will lose the great righteousness!"

Shen Pei, who was retorted, said calmly, his gaze glancing at Yuan Benchu above!

"My lord is of the four-generation-three-ducal-house family, a descendant of the Yuan gate; how can he destroy his own reputation!"

Hearing one sentence about righteousness and another about reputation, Guo Jia was completely speechless!

"Alright, Zhengnan's words are reasonable; our goal at this moment is Bingzhou!"

Yuan Benchu above made the final decision, abandoning the idea of attacking Qingzhou!

Although Qingzhou is rich and Bingzhou is poor!

But Yuan Shao still cares about his reputation as a four-generation-three-ducal-house family!

Reputation is the foundation of his survival!

Guo Jia below, seeing this, was completely disappointed for a moment!

After a long while, outside the Provincial Governor's mansion

"Hehe, Yuan Benchu of the four-generation-three-ducal-house family, he has a reputation in name only!"

Guo Jia walked out of the Provincial Governor's mansion, took a deep look, and sighed in his heart!

This was not the first time!

This Yuan Shao is indecisive and burdened by his reputation!

Leaving the great Qingzhou and not taking it!

Running to compete with Gongsun Zan for Bingzhou!

Qingzhou has now had most of its troops consumed by Yuan Gonglu!

As long as Yuan Benchu's military focus arrives, there will inevitably be people surrendering everywhere!

What a pity!

"Fengxian, wait a moment!"

Just at this moment, someone behind him called out, and then chased after him!

Guo Jia turned his head to look and saw two middle-aged scholars walking over!

"So it is Mr. Wenruo and Mr. Yuanhao!"

Bowing to the two, Guo Jia was very clear about the purpose of their arrival!

"Alas, Fengxiao's strategy deeply touches my heart!"

Tian Feng, Tian Yuanhao, who arrived, sighed; he actually also advocated for Yuan Shao to attack Qingzhou!

Occupying Jizhou and Qingzhou, the two places, would be enough to calmly deal with Gongsun Zan!

What a pity!

Shen Pei, Guo Tu, and others all opposed it!

He also had no way to change Yuan Shao's thoughts!

"Forget it, Mr. Yuanhao, help me pass a message to the lord; Fengxiao will resign from his post and return to farming and reading!" Bowing to Tian Feng, Guo Jia chose to resign from his post directly!

For a moment, seeing Guo Jia like this, Tian Feng knew that further persuasion would be fruitless and could only shake his head and leave!

It was Xun Yu, who followed, who looked at Guo Jia with a light smile!

"Why? Did Fengxiao also receive a letter from Zhongde?!"

Saying a teasing remark, others might not see through his Guo Fengxiao, but he, Xun Yu, could still see through him!

"Haha, it seems Wenruo also received one!"

Guo Jia laughed, and then frankly admitted it!

He had indeed received a letter from Cheng Zhongde!

The letter stated that although Yuan Benchu is of the four-generation-three-ducal-house family, he is indecisive and not a wise lord!

Therefore, he wanted to try one last time today!

What a pity!

It was still a crushing defeat!

"So, is Fengxiao prepared to go?"

Xun Yu's gaze was burning as he looked at Guo Fengxiao before him!

This person's talent is heaven-shaking and earth-shattering!

Farming is fine, but once he serves someone, he will inevitably compete for the world!

"Zhongde said there is good wine over there, so I'm prepared to go and taste it!"

Laughing lightly, Guo Jia had already tacitly agreed!

Regarding Guo Jia's frankness, Xun Yu also nodded!

As for Yuan Shao!

It wasn't just Guo Jia who was disappointed!

He was also disappointed!

"Fengxiao, take care on your journey!"

After the friends said their goodbyes, Guo Jia also returned, took a few attendants, and headed toward Xuzhou!

Watching Guo Jia leave, Xun Yu also pondered his next destination!

Meanwhile, outside Guanglingcheng

"So this is Guanglingcheng!"

Coming all the way from Xuzhou, at this moment, Chen Deng looked at Guanglingcheng before him, his brows furrowing tightly!
