"No rush!"
Guo Jia stared at the chess on the chessboard alone without raising his head.
"It's too early to hold a banquet now. Let's wait and see how the Cao and Liu families will make their move.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jia began to play with the chess pieces.
The red minion took a shot from the black team, then moved a black horse to take a red-haired minion, and then moved a red chariot to threaten the black horse.
After taking a few steps, he stopped and looked at Zhang Mu, asking,"As for Ziyu, that Chen Daocai had just acknowledged you as his master when he asked to leave. Not only were you assured that he would leave, but you also gave him a hundred gold.”
"And that Gong Du, the defeated general, you made him your deputy general. Aren't you afraid that he'll betray you?”
Guo Jia's dark eyes flickered.
Zhang Mu wanted to vomit.
He really wanted to ask Guo Jia if he would lose his mind playing against him.
He also wanted to ask why it was so troublesome for scholars and advisors to open the master recognition observation mode and test the school at any time. Wasn't it tiring?
However, there was no other way. Fighting for hegemony required talents, especially talents at Guo Jia's level.
"If you suspect someone, don't use him. If you use someone, don't hesitate!"
Zhang Mu spat out.
This was the time to show off his boldness.
However, as a modern person, Zhang Mu felt that it was hard to truly trust a person.
If they really did that, they would either be stupid or lack social experience.
The reason why he was so assured was because he had a cheat.。
"Would I tell you that as long as my people enter the Catalog of Destiny, there's no need to worry about betrayal?”
Zhang Mu was secretly pleased.
After accepting Chen Dao, he asked for a drop of blood to complete the activation of the catalog.
After activating the catalog, he received two rewards.
[Eagle's Eyes: Dynamic Vision, Observation, Distance Vision, Near Vision, etc. Increase by three times!]
This reward had transformed Zhang Mu's vision. He could even see Mai from three feet away. Coupled with the power of the tiger, he felt that he could become a godly archer with just a few casual practices.
[White Pheasant Army Training Method: Records the White Pheasant Army Equipment Construction Method, Troop Training Method, and Army Formation Training Method.]
The White Troops were the most elite troops under Liu Bei's command. They were led by Chen Dao. The soldiers 'uniforms were all marked with white bird feathers and beast fur. They were very distinctive. They could be said to be the special forces of the late Han Dynasty.
Liu Bei was also known as Liu Paopao. His survival skills were top-notch and he cherished his life very much. This was evident from the White Pall Army.
However, Zhang Mu was not surprised to receive such a reward.
After receiving Chen Dao's reward, Zhang Mu had Gong Du give him a drop of blood as an experiment. He didn't expect to activate a page of the General Catalog, but there was no reward.
However, obtaining this page of the catalog was not without benefits.
The Fate Catalog sent him a message. Although the catalog only recorded people who had strong Fate and left their names in history, the owner of the catalog could also take the initiative to record anyone and know their life details, but the premise was that the person had a different heart.
This information was a pleasant surprise for Zhang Mu.
Knowing the trivialities of his life could allow him to analyze a person's personality greatly, and from there, he could target them and send them to suitable positions.
As for the prerequisite of acknowledging a master, he could use it as a loyalty detector. For example, if Gong Du couldn't enter the rankings, it meant that he had other intentions. He couldn't be reused and needed to be wary of him.
If someone became a traitor, the light on the catalog would not disappear.
If there were spies who joined him, or if there were people who pretended to surrender to him, they would be courting death.
It was because of this ability that he immediately agreed when he heard Chen Dao say that he was going to Runan to pick up his old mother and wife.
He would also be at ease with Gong Du appointing Xu Ding as a deputy general.
But he couldn't say that.
"There's no need to suspect someone…Guo Jia smiled noncommittally and asked,"Ziyu, how do you plan to deal with the Cao and Liu families?”
Dealing with the aristocratic families was Guo Jia's business.
Dealing with the aristocratic families was Zhang Mu's business.
Managing an aristocratic family was an eternal headache.
If the aristocratic families were strong, they would become a hindrance to the ruler.
Although the ruler had military power, he could not kill all these aristocratic families. Otherwise, there would be no one to govern them, and it would be a mess.
After all, those who were knowledgeable were either from the aristocratic families or students of the aristocratic families.
"Split!"
Of course, Zhang Mu knew a lot of methods from the future, but it wasn't the right time to bring them out, and he couldn't show off in front of Guo Jia.
In fact, after activating the catalog, he was no longer afraid of these things, but he could not tell others.
However, he had already thought of a way.
"First, get the hearts of the people and divide the classes."
The population was the most important!
"I'll rope in one side and suppress the other. In any case, some of them are loyal to Yuan Shu and some are loyal to Yuan Shao.”
The waters of Yuzhou were very deep. The small Yingchuan County had the Xun Family, Zhong Family, Chen Family, and other aristocratic families. Runan County had the deep-rooted Yuan Family. The other four countries also had aristocratic families and Han clan relatives.
Now, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao both wanted this place and had already made their moves.
Zhang Mu was ready to pull the chestnuts out of the fire!
"Nurturing the Humble Class, forming a new force, and forming a balance.”
There was no need to exterminate the aristocratic families. Exterminating a batch would also give birth to a new batch.
Moreover, Zhang Mu himself was a member of the gentry, so there was no need to target him.
"Let's wait and see!" Guo Jia smiled and didn't say anything else.
Zhang Mu pursed his lips and sent someone to the city gate to issue the official document.
.................
North of the city, Cao family.
Liu Guang, Heng Dian, He Xin, Xia Houjie, and Cao Bin sat in a circle.
He Xin smiled and said," We just received news that Zhang Mu of Feng County defeated the Yellow Turban Army in the west of the city. He killed Liu Pi and captured Gong Du alive. The specific information will be sent over in a while. We are safe."”
Finding Zhang Mu was his idea, and now that he succeeded, he was naturally happy.
Heng Dian, Liu Guang, and Xia Houjie smiled.
Only Cao Bin was still frowning. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said,"Don't you think Zhang Mu came too quickly?”
