1461 , Cao Cao
The most important thing next is to hide it from Cao Cao.
Cao Cao can be said to be the only person who can pose a threat to Liu Zhe's attack on Hanzhong.
He didn't need to do anything too much. As long as he was approaching the Yellow River, Liu Zhe had to withdraw from Hanzhong.
Therefore, hiding it from Cao Cao is the top priority.
But it is not a simple thing to hide from Cao Cao. Just as Liu Zhe was full of spies in Cao Cao, Cao Cao was also full of spies in Liu Zhe, trying every means to spy on more information day and night.
Therefore, once Liu Zhe makes some abnormal moves here, Cao Cao will definitely receive the news.
Cao Cao's subordinates are not without people. He just needs to combine the information and it is very likely to infer what Liu Zhe wants to do.
For Cao Cao, he knew very well which threatened Liu Zhe or Liu Bei.
Once he judged that Liu Zhe was going to attack Hanzhong, he would definitely give up going south and not seek revenge on Liu Bei, and would wholeheartedly disturb Liu Zhe.
"Tell me, what good way do you have to hide it from Cao Cao?" Liu Zhe asked as he looked at everyone.
When everyone heard this, they frowned.
This is not an easy thing.
Before the troops moved, food and grass would come first. If we attack Hanzhong, we had to transport materials to Chang'an and other places first.
But it is very difficult to transport materials.
Large-scale transportation is definitely not possible, Cao Cao will definitely know. But if it is just a small-scale secret transportation, then he doesn’t know when, year and month to transport enough materials.
However, this problem is not a problem for Guo Jia and others.
They just frowned and then stretched out.
Seeing this, Liu Zhe smiled and said, "It seems that you have a solution. Tell me, let me hear what good methods you have. For the filial piety, you can talk first."
"Lord, this is not difficult."
Guo Jia smiled and said the first time, "It only takes a rebellion in Yongzhou or Liangzhou."
When Jia Xu heard Guo Jia's solution, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he had thought of this method.
"Wenhe, what's your solution?" Liu Zhe asked Jia Xu.
"Lord, the way of subordinates is the same as that of filial piety." Jia Xu replied with a smile.
"Is this the solution?" Liu Zhe couldn't help asking.
"Master."
Xun Yu said, "This method is undoubtedly the best method."
"Will Cao Cao doubt it?"
Cai Yong was a little older and had no brains as fast as Guo Jia and the others. He couldn't figure it out and asked out loud.
Guo Jia said to him: "Gei Master, don't worry about Cao Cao's suspicion."
"Why?" Cai Yong still couldn't figure it out.
Then, Guo Jia explained to him in detail.
After Yang Xiu came to Youzhou, Liu Zhe had sent Guo Jia to hint Yang Xiu, let Cao Cao know that Liu Zhe would not interfere with his going south.
But who is Cao Cao?
He said nothing and said nothing, without any real expression. Cao Cao would never dare to go south easily. So Liu Zhe presented a war horse to Liu Biao and Liu Bei to dispel Cao Cao's doubts.
Giving war horses to Liu Biao and Liu Bei will not only not make Cao Cao angry, but will also make Cao Cao happy and believe that Liu Zhe will not interfere with his going south.
Because Cao Cao believed that Liu Zhe wanted to increase Liu Biao and Liu Bei's strength, so that Liu Biao and Liu Bei could have more strength to fight him Cao Cao.
If a rebellion occurs in Liangzhou or Yongzhou and Liu Zhe wants to quell the rebellion, it will also give Cao Cao an illusion that Liu Zhe is deliberately trying to move south.
Therefore, at that time, Cao Cao would not suspect that Liu Zhe's target would be Hanzhong.
"What if anyone can guess?" Cai Yong asked back after hearing Guo Jia's explanation.
"Father-in-law, have you forgotten?"
Liu Zhe smiled and said to Cai Yong: "We will attack Japan next year and help the Japanese restore the country."
"That's right."
Guo Jia said to Cai Yong: "We have already made momentum in the newspaper, and at the same time, we emphasized in the newspaper that the lord guild fully supports the restoration of the Japanese. From us to Japan, the journey is long and the materials consumed are astronomical. Cao Cao didn't know how much materials we had, and he didn't know that our materials could support the battles on both sides."
"So, Cao Cao believes that if our attack on Japan is true, then the rebellion in Guanzhong is fake, and the purpose is to reassure him so that he can lie about the rebellion that he went south?" Cai Yong seemed to understand a little.
"That's right, so he thinks that we will not have much material to deliver to Guanzhong by then, we are just doing it." Guo Jia said.
Others cannot know how rich Youzhou is. The materials needed for a large-scale expedition were astronomical, so no one could imagine that the materials owned by Liu Zhe could support two large-scale expeditions.
"Why did he think that it was true that we attacked Japan?" Cai Yong asked.
“This is simple.”
Xun Yu smiled and said, "When the princess leads the team to fight, the momentum will not be hidden from others. Unless Cao Cao's spies are all blind, it is impossible to see them."
Speaking of this, Cai Yong didn't understand yet, so he was sorry that Liu Zhe asked him to attend the meeting.
Although he is old and his mind is not as good as a young man, he is not a fool, nor is he an ordinary fool. After Guo Jia explained this, he understood.
In general, everything Liu Zhe did now was to confuse Cao Cao, making Cao Cao mistakenly believe that Liu Zhe had no time to interfere with his journey south. At the same time, because of his expedition to Japan, Cao Cao believed that Liu Zhe's supplies were not enough to support him in crossing the river and causing trouble.
Therefore, once Cao Cao was deceived, he would definitely be very happy to go south.
After understanding, Cai Yong showed a happy expression on his face and said, "I don't know what expression Cao Cao will have when he knows the facts?"
"It must be very exciting." Jia Xu said with a smile.
"Ha ha......"
Everyone here couldn't help laughing.
