"Send an order to Cao Ren, instructing him to quickly capture Chang'an. I will personally lead an army of 100,000 to join him, and then attack Qingzhou!"
"Furthermore, have Xiahou Dun send 50,000 troops from Xuzhou to attack Qingzhou from both sides!"
"Here you go!"
Guo Jia was preoccupied with his own thoughts. After leaving, the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
So Guo Jia called Xun Yu over and said, "Wenruo, I feel like something's not right, but I can't quite put my finger on it."

Xun Yu, however, grabbed Guo Jia and said with a wry smile, "Fengxiao, even if you guessed Mr. Lu's intentions, you cannot stop our lord from attacking Qingzhou!"
