Volume 2 The Frontier Chapter 31 Ten Wins and Ten Defeats
"But in this way, we will never be able to catch up with Yuan Shao. Lao Cao said worriedly, "And my old brother will fight with me after all to decide who can become the overlord of the Central Plains." "Now is not the time to turn his face," I said after his words, "but when the decisive battle comes, Lao Cao, you will win, and Yuan Benchu will lose!"
"Oh?" Lao Cao seemed a little unconfident, "I would like to know why you, the military advisor, are making such wild statements. "This is not a wild statement, this is the conclusion of analysis. I smiled confidently, "As your military advisor, I naturally can't just drink and mess around every day, foresight is one of the basic cultivation of a strategist." You have ten wins compared to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao has ten defeats compared to you!"
I drank the wine in the cup and continued: "A famous way, Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, the reputation is prominent, but in order to maintain his image, he can only be bound under the rules, you don't have his kind of restraint, everything can be solved in the best way, this Yuan Shao can't do it." In the name of two victories, and now our army is serving the Son of Heaven to seek rebellion, the so-called rebel minister, we call Yuan Shao a rebel, then he is a rebel. Sansheng fame, I also served on Yuan Shao's side, he uses people with wide external and internal taboos, and he loves talents on the surface. Lao Cao, you can be virtuous and capable, so that all kinds of birdmen can give full play to their strengths for your use, and even a stinky younger brother like Xiahou Yuan can make contributions. ”
Regardless of Xiahou Yuan, who was squeaking and screaming, I continued: "Sisheng Mingzhi, Yuan Shao's bureaucratic corruption is serious, on the other hand, on our side, even the clan relatives here, the family is not prominent. Brother Yuan's Yulu is mostly used to appease the soldiers, which wins the hearts of the people and the way to win the hearts of the army. Wusheng Mingmou, well, compared to Yuan Shao Lao Cao, you are a smart lord, not to mention that I will give you advice. As for the so-called strategists like Tian Feng in Hebei, the bones in the grave are just dry. ”
"Big brother, do you want face?" This time Cao Hong couldn't listen anymore, but Lao Cao motioned for him not to intervene and let me continue. "Six victories. I continued, "In Hebei, there will be rewards for touting Yuan Shao, but in Xudu, everything advocates practicality, and sycophants will not work, so our work efficiency is much higher than theirs." Seven victories and celebrities, the prosperity of Hebei is actually just an illusion, only the clan family can really live, and the people of Li will even starve. Xudu is indeed a little poorer than Yecheng, but the people here really support us. Eight victories are famous, and the ministers have to meet the Ming Duke although he dies without regrets. Lao Cao, you can listen to the opinions of the courtiers, not like Yuan Shao's arbitrariness, and think of one out is one out. Jiusheng Mingwen, you are orderly under your rule, and everything is evaluated by the law, but there is a human touch in the law, which is better than Yuan Shao. Ten victorious martial arts, we are inferior to Yuan Shao in terms of military strength alone, but Yuan Shao will not use it. With such an advantageous force, it would take a long time to fight Gongsun Zhan, and if it were us, the land of the Yan Dynasty would have been in the bag. Lao Cao, you yourself are Mingjun, the generals under your command can win battles, the style is excellent, and the military divisions under your hands, led by me, are all graceful, and the enemy is expected to be the first, so although Yuan Shaojun is numerous, there is no need to worry. ”
After I finished speaking, the audience was silent for two seconds, "Okay!" Lao Cao probably didn't think of how to praise me at once, saying that I was awesome and didn't fit my own personality, so he held back a good word. Xiahoudun took the lead in applauding, and I kept smiling, accepting the adoring gaze of everyone in a pretending posture.
"Fengxiao is a treasure!" Lao Cao smiled, "Your theory of ten wins and ten defeats has really made a stone fall in my heart." Don't go, take me for a few more rounds!" We had already drunk a lot before, and after Lao Cao reopened the table, those stinky brothers quickly couldn't bear it one by one, but fortunately, Xun Yu arrived when Lao Cao was slightly drunk.
"Lord!" Xun Yu's expression was like eating shit, "I've told you a few times, this tavern is set up for all kinds of spies, not for you and these stinky brothers to drink and brag!" Old Cao's face turned red, "It's Xun Lingjun," he said embarrassedly, "What's wrong?" "You just asked the minister if he can defeat Yuan Shao, and the minister has a conclusion!" Xun Yu leaned over and said: "The lord has ten victories, and Yuan Shao has ten defeats!" Lao Cao turned around and glanced at me, "Huh?" He was a little speechless, "You two are sure that you didn't make a confession before?"
In fact, Xun Yu and I have such a good relationship, we drink and talk about big things together when we have nothing to do, and these ten wins and ten defeats are already the default in our hearts, but we haven't used it to pat Lao Cao's sycophants... But this wine is over, Lao Cao was pressed back to Sikong Mansion by Xun Yu to deal with official documents, he brought a few Cao family soldiers and sent the four stinky brothers who drank down back to their respective mansions, and for a while the banquet dispersed and only I was left.
My amount of alcohol is good in itself, and after practicing the Taiping Technique, my physique is far beyond that of ordinary people, and I can compare with generals like the Xiahou brothers. After the dinner, I was slightly drunk, and it was the evening when I began to walk around again. Thinking about this, I went home too early, so I turned left and right, and "inadvertently" came to Red Street.
"Didn't Xiahou Yuan brag about four singers a night before?" a dirty thought surged in my heart, "Then I'll try five." So I set foot on the Red Street. "No..."My face was bitter, "Yu'er gave me two taels of pocket money today, five is not enough, Hejiu is really a man's grave." ”
The thought of having a wife waiting for me to come home made me half sober. "Boring. I said to myself, ", I'm waiting for you, Grandpa Guo Fengxiao, to come and play with you another day." "The wine is gone, and the urine is coming up. I went around to an alley behind Red Street, lifted the hem of my shirt and unbuttoned the waistband of my pants and flew down 3,000 feet.
"Hey, the little girl is quite fierce. "What are you pretending to be high, ladies on the Red Street, can't Lao Tzu add money? "Although I've always adhered to the principle of not making trouble in the Red Street, sometimes trouble is like peeing in the wind, and you will end up in a mess. Two men dressed in soldier's clothes followed a young woman all the way to me, and then one of the men grabbed her wrist and buckled it against the wall, it didn't matter to me, the key was that I was kicked by another man before I could lift my pants, "Get out of the way! "He cursed and tried to get rid of me.
"I'm going to fuck Yu'er to wash my pants again. "I'm very upset, leave a shoe print to deal with, but what will happen if someone kicks you when you are in the water, I think all of you male friends and some female friends know. I think that I was a dignified military advisor and was bullied by two small soldiers, and it feels like the first half of the plot of a miserable script.
"Big brothers, I repeat I'm not a prostitute. The woman still smiled, "Now let me go, and give that brother a humble word, I can act as if nothing happened." "With the help of the sunset, I observed this woman, who was about twenty years old, with a graceful posture and tall figure, a little taller than Xiahou Yuan. Dressed in white, although it has been weathered, it can still be seen that the materials are exquisite. She has a beautiful face, but there is a hint of murder, combined with the sword at her waist, I believe that this should be a female ranger.
"On this red street, uncle, I said that you are a prostitute, you have to be a prostitute!" The man who controlled her looked arrogant, "It also deserves a sword on his body, it's funny, I like it!" "It seems that reasoning with you won't work..."The woman shook her head, "Then let me ask a question, is it illegal to kill people here in self-defense?"
