In history, dynasties have been accompanied by bloody storms, and they are even more cruel and ruthless; the complete removal of losers is an inevitable result, and bloody massacre is inevitable, which is called "cutting the weeds and roots". If the weeds and roots are not cut off, they will grow again. But Lu Ning doesn't want to be so bloody and rainy. He wants to protect his opponents as much as possible, and there is no need to kill them all. This is probably because Lu Ning was influenced by later civilizations. Besides, Lu Ning was born under the Red Banner and grew up under the Red Banner, so of course he would not kill people at will.

It is said that Cao Cao was summoning his civil and military officials to study the issue of food and grass. Everyone thought about the solutions. Even if they save money, it would be difficult to maintain much time. After all, after Xuchang City was besieged, there was no source of food and grass. Moreover, at this time, some of Cao Cao's territory was basically occupied by Lu Ning's army, and there would be a source of food and grass there!

The guards came in and said, "Lord, is there a man named Guo Jia in Lu Ning's army here to ask for a meeting?"

Cao Cao was stunned!

After coming back to his senses, Cao Cao said, "What did you say? Guo Jia asked for a meeting?"

The guard said, "My lord, his name is Guo Jia, and he is waiting at the city gate now!"

Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "Let him come into the city."

Xiahou Yuan said in confusion: "What does Guo Jia mean? Is it a joke to see us?"

Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "This is not the case. I guess he is here to surrender to the lord."

When Cao Cao's civil and military officials heard Guo Jia's visit, they really felt a little hope. After all, Xuchang's situation was obvious. If there was a good ending, who would be willing to die? Guo Jia could come at this time, which means there is room for maneuver. In particular, everyone is most concerned about the safety of the family, which is the most important thing.

Cao Cao saw the expressions of the civil and military officials under his command in his heart, and had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Tell me! What is Guo Jia's purpose?"

No one dared to speak out after hearing this. Isn’t this obvious? Why not guess!

Dong Zhao said: "Lord, Guo Jia is probably here to negotiate the conditions, it depends on the lord's intention. As for all of us, we must be together with our lord's life and death, and everything will be decided by our lord."

Cao Cao glanced at Dong Zhao and cursed nonsense in his heart. When will you live and die with me? Isn’t this nonsense? Who can you hide your thoughts?

The guards came in again and said, "Lord, Guo Jia and Mr. Xun Yu have arrived at the door. Will they allow them to come in?"

Cao Cao said: "Has Wen Ruo come too?"

The guard said: "Lord, Wen Ruo came with Guo Jia."

After hearing this, Cao Cao said, "Please come in!"

After Guo Jia and Xun Yu came in, Xun Yu knelt down and bowed as soon as he saw Cao Cao, "Lord, I'm back! I've let down my lord's trust and ask my lord to punish me."

After giving the gift to Lao Cao, Guo Xi said, "Prime Minister Cao, if Wen is detained by our army, you will be returned now. You will not blame him!"

Cao Cao immediately laughed and said, "Wen Ruo is my right-hand man, how could he blame me? Wen Ruo, get up quickly!"

Xun Yu said: "Thank you lord!"

Cao Cao glanced at Guo Jia and said, "Mr. Guo, I wonder what happened to you when you are here today?"

Guo Jia glanced at Cao Cao, then looked at the civil and military officials sitting, and then smiled and said, "Prime Minister Cao, I came here to save everyone's lives."

Cheng Yu was still stubborn when he died. Guo Jia finished speaking and immediately retorted: "Guo Fengxiao, what do you mean? Why don't you save us from our death? You should worry about whether your life can be saved. You have followed Lu Ning's rebel over the years and did many things that violate the court laws. Don't you know?"

After hearing this, Guo Jia looked at Cheng Yu fiercely and said slowly: "Is it illegal for me to chase after my lord to attack the Huns, Xianbei and other foreign barbarians on the northern grasslands? Is it illegal for me to make 50 million people live better and better? If the original law cannot make the people live better, can't satisfy the people's food and clothing, and can't resist the invasion of foreign barbarians, it's better not to have such a law!"

After hearing this, Cheng Yu whispered in a low confidence: "Quote!"

Guo Jia laughed and glared at Cheng Yu fiercely and said, "Do you have to make a fuss? What our Lord does is obvious? The territory is spreading for tens of thousands of miles, and the expanded territory is several times larger than that of the original Han territory. This gives the Han people a depth to resist foreign barbarians, and conquered thousands of islands overseas, making them the territory of the Han people. These are all facts. As long as people who are not mentally retarded, is it true that Mr. Zhongde has any problems with his eyes and ears?"

Of course, Cao Cao was unwilling to talk about such issues, and he didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters; of course, Guo Jia was not here to show off his great achievements, and it was meaningless to talk nonsense about such matters.

Cao Cao said: "I won't talk about these things. Just say anything Fengxiao has to say it!"

Guo Jia said: "Prime Minister Cao, I am trying to convince the Prime Minister to surrender. My lord often talks about the Prime Minister, saying that the Prime Minister is a hero of a generation, and he is very good in terms of military talent and administrative ability. If the Prime Minister can give up fighting for the world and do more practical things for the people with my lord, it will definitely be a blessing for the people in the world and a blessing for the people in the world."

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Fengxiao, just let me surrender with just one word. This is too underestimating me, Cao Cao!"

After hearing this, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Prime Minister Cao, we did not underestimate you. We only value you and then went to the city to convince you. If you were someone like Yuan Shao, I would never convince you, and the lord would not care. The most important thing is that Prime Minister Cao, your plan determines the life and death of the Cao family and the Xiahou family; Prime Minister Cao will not want these two families to disappear!"

Cao Cao said angrily: "You are a shameless threat!"

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "That's right! But the Prime Minister is also clear about the situation in front of him. Don't say that our army will attack the city, even if we don't attack the city, in less than a few days, the 100,000 troops in the Prime Minister's hands will be destroyed, and Xuchang will automatically fall into pieces. In addition, let me tell the Prime Minister another thing, the territory you didn't control, and the last piece of Runan was also captured by Zhang and Jiaxu yesterday, and it became the jurisdiction of our master. Does the Prime Minister have any place to gain a foothold?"

Liu Fu said: "If my lord surrenders, how will Lu Ning arrange it?"

Guo Jia said: "My Lord has a conclusion about this matter. Prime Minister Cao has a unique insight in commanding operations. His military strategy is definitely a beautiful person, and he is an outstanding politician, military strategist, and strategyist. If the Prime Minister's knowledge is not passed on to future generations, it will definitely be a loss to the Han people. For this reason, our Lord wants to invite the Prime Minister to teach at the Military Academy and teach knowledge together with great scholars such as Lu Zhi and Guan Ning."

After hearing this, Cao Cao and his officials nodded, and knew that such an arrangement was already very good. It was impossible for Lu Ning to give Cao Cao great power! If it were other princes, they would definitely not be able to tolerate the failed princes living in the world, and they would definitely eliminate all the roots and eliminate potential hidden dangers.

Cao Cao said: "Then how do I place my civil and military officials, soldiers?"
