Zhao Mu was secretly delighted.
Since the young man didn't deny it, it must be "Guo Jia and Ben Jia"!
My humble abode, it was indeed my humble abode.
Guo Jia's humble abode, other than the word humble abode to describe it, probably only a humble abode could compete with it!
If it were to rain, even this broken wooden house would leak!
"Brother, there's wine but no meat here, but it lacks some flavor. Why don't you wait for a while and go borrow some from next door? I, Yingchuan Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, still have some reputation in this countryside!”Guo Jia said as he poured the wine, but he had no intention of getting up.
"Why bother?" Zhao Mu laughed. I came from Taishan County and brought the specialty of Hua County, preserved wild game! It's not that I'm boasting, but in Hua County, who doesn't praise me, Zhao Mu and Zhao Jinglue, for being the best in the world?”
Xu Chu was dumbfounded.
Good fellow!
Why are the two of you introducing yourselves?
What old friend?
As long as the two of you have met before, my name has been written upside down!
Could this be called having the same bad taste?
After the wine and meat entered their stomachs, Zhao Mu and Guo Jia's words were opened.
In a sense, Zhao Mu and Guo Jia were both thick-skinned and good at dealing with people.
They had clearly never met before, but they were able to chat like old friends in a few words.
"Brother Fengxiao left Ye City and returned to Yingchuan.”
After chatting for a while.
In Xu Chu's ears, Zhao Mu and Guo Jia's conversation was finally getting closer to normal.
Guo Jia's gaze changed slightly, but he didn't hide it."There are a few candidates for this Ming Lord, but I don't know who is the most suitable.”
"Brother Fengxiao, why don't you tell me?" Zhao Mu smiled.”
Guo Jia paused for a moment and said," Before I went to Ye City, I thought that Yuan Shao was a wise ruler. But after staying for a few years, I realized that Yuan Shao only had a superficial appearance. He only had the reputation of four generations and three dukes. It was difficult for him to achieve great things.”
"Now that I've left Ye City, I've set my eyes on the world and am looking for these few candidates for a wise ruler.”
"Cao Cao, the herdsman of Yanzhou, regardless of his background, is a person of talent. To us Humble Class scholars, he is a good choice. Xun Wenruo also sent a letter inviting me to Yanzhou. But I don't know much about this person, so I don't have such plans for now.”
"Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, conquered Jingzhou on his own. He is a hero and a relative of the Han clan. Many of the talents in Yingchuan are also attached to Liu Biao. Xun Gongda also sent a letter asking me to go to Xiangyang for a few days.”
"Yuan Shu of Huainan, actually I also want to meet him. After all, he is the son of the Yuan family and might be stronger than Yuan Shao.”
"If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Prefecture's Overseer Tao Qian was defeated by Cao Cao, it might have been a good choice. After all, Tao Qian doesn't have anyone capable under him.”
"There is also Liu Yan of Yizhou. He once suggested to the emperor to let the honest and upright officials of the court serve as the governors of the local prefectures and counties to guard the place and stabilize the world. This was also a courageous person. Unfortunately, Shu Road was dangerous and he could not go even if he wanted to.”
Guo Jia spoke with assurance.
He listed Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Yuan Shu, Tao Qian and Liu Yan.
However, other than Cao Cao, Guo Jia's evaluation of the other five people was filled with disdain.
Seeing this, Zhao Mu said,"Although Liu Yan is talented and has the determination to help the Han Dynasty, his strategy is not enough to match his ambition." Although he chose to follow Gaozu's example and choose Shu, he did not have talented people like Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Han Xin under him. He was destined to be trapped in Shu and unable to achieve great things.”
"Tao Qian is just an ordinary person. If not for Duke Cao's concern that his power would expand too quickly and Yanzhou's foundation would be unstable, Tao Qian would have fled back to Pill Sun County a few months ago.”
"Yuan Shu of Huainan is a skeleton in the grave. With Nanyang and Runan in his hands and the support of the Yuan family's many years of foundation, he has actually fallen to the point of struggling on his last breath in the Jianghuai region. What a fool!"
"Jingzhou Prefecture Overseer Liu Biao, to put it nicely, he rode alone to pacify Jingzhou. To put it bluntly, he married the daughter of a wealthy family and obtained the support of the Jingzhou aristocrats. He seemed to be the ruler of the Jing State, but in reality, he was just a puppet elected by the Jing State's aristocrats. Once Liu Biao's intentions clashed with the intentions of the Jingzhou nobles, Liu Biao would not even be able to defend Xiangyang!”
"As for Yuan Shao, he has fame, means, and a strong family background. If he doesn't have a decent opponent, the world will belong to Yuan Shao!”
Guo Jia's eyes flashed with surprise.
Originally, it was because he was greedy for alcohol, so he casually recognized him as an "old friend". He did not expect Zhao Mu's insight and knowledge to be so unique!
"This person's analysis of the world's general situation and the evaluation of various factions are at his fingertips. He doesn't seem like an ordinary scholar.”
"But I've never heard of Zhao Mu under the command of Cao Gong, and Wen Ruo didn't introduce him in the letter.”
While Guo Jia was amazed, he was also a little puzzled.
Guo Jia had actually been invited by Xun Yu to return to Yingchuan.
However, Guo Jia was not the kind of strategist who could come at a wave of his hand. Even under Yuan Shao, Guo Jia was only a small assistant officer in the army.
It wasn't that Guo Jia wasn't talented enough, but that he didn't want to be in a high position before he had a clear ruler.
He paused.
Guo Jia's eyes flashed with wisdom and cunning.
"Brother, you have evaluated Liu Yan, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Tao Qian, and Yuan Shao, but not Cao Cao.”
"Do you think Cao Cao is a wise ruler?”
Guo Jia wanted to know how this person would evaluate Cao Cao.
But in the next moment.
Guo Jia was stunned, and his gaze became strange.
