After Jia Xu's pointing, Tong Yuan knew that it was best not to be hard in this matter, so as not to get twice the result with half the effort.

The solution to rescue Yu Poison last year was actually conceived by Wei Qian. This time, Wei Qi stayed in Hedong to develop people's livelihood, so he didn't get his advice. But won't you be able to think flexibly?

If you want to grow further, you have to improve yourself.

He knew that if he asked Jia Xu directly, that person might just continue to make vague points, after all, he hadn't taken refuge in himself.

This time, Jia Xu actually came to test him. If he doesn't listen and continues to send troops to Xiliang, then the result may be that Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou unite to deal with the Xinxi Liang army.

It may even fall into the encirclement network of the Western Liang Army, Ma Teng, Han Sui, the Qiang tribe in the north and the Bashu forces in the south.

Don't say that you can follow Cao Cao, whether you can see today next year is another story.

Of course, if he answers well, he does not rule out the possibility of subduing Jia Xu. After all, he came here in person, just because he had a good impression of himself, otherwise it would be good to ignore it.

Tong Yuan formally bowed and said, "Mr. Xie has given advice, and Yuan has already understood that he will never live up to the expectations of so many border soldiers and border people." Fang Cai's recklessness was that I was abrupt. ”

Jia Xu relaxed slightly, but he didn't have any expression.

Tong Yuan said a little risky: "Mr. Yuanzhi has the frontier and the world in his heart, but the general of the chariot and cavalry, they can't lead the world to peace. I hope that Mr. can help me, and I will definitely let Mr. get an appointment. ”

He was also a little nervous when he said it, knowing that this matter must have a tendency to dig into the corner of Li Dao's wall and openly unify the Xiliang army. And once it doesn't work, the two sides may get along more awkwardly.

However, he is even more afraid of missing this opportunity. If Ma Teng and Han Sui recover, there will be tens of thousands of cavalry.

Jia Xu was still expressionless, his eyes were looking ahead, he stood up and paced slowly, took a deep breath, and then bowed to Tong Yuan and thanked, "Please forgive me for not agreeing." In fact, Xu came this time to say goodbye. ”

"Huh? What happened? ”

Jia Xu said in a deep voice, "My mother passed away at the end of last year, and I learned the news after the end of the war, and now I want to go home to keep my filial piety." Now, although there is no fixed requirement of three years, I intend to do so. ”

"In three years, if the general can stick to his original intention and goal, he will definitely be famous all over the world. It would be a great blessing if he could assist the general at that time. ”

Tong Yuan was slightly surprised, there are many things in romance, online articles and games, and since he used it, he has been working honestly.

Although he came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty for almost two years, some of his thinking still retains the habit of following later generations, so he is not mentally prepared at all.

For example, Dong Bai did not return to his hometown to guard filial piety because of revenge and court affairs. Fortunately, in the Han Dynasty, she advocated blood revenge, and she gave priority to killing Wang Yun, Lu Bu and others to avenge her grandfather and family, which was generally accepted.

And Tong Yuan was not in the rules of the scholar clan because he was born strong, so no one suggested that he do it. What's more, his actions have been fighting against the enemy, which can be regarded as filial piety.

However, Jia Xu is over fifty years old, and it is estimated that his mother is dying, and he has no reason to take revenge and stay. How is this good?

That's not right, Li Dao just let him go? It stands to reason that in the incident a year later, Jia Xu was not less involved.

He didn't know that although the Han ruled the world with filial piety, the thinking of people in this era was not so rigid. If they are management officials, they are generally not allowed to give up their official positions and go directly to their hometowns to guard their filial piety. Even if they go back, they will be given positions that do not affect the operation of the imperial court, and let them continue as before.

Historically, when Jia Xu returned to his hometown to guard filial piety, he stepped down from Shangshu, and also served as a doctor in Guanglu, receiving a salary at home. Moreover, Li Dao's side recruited him back in advance a year later, awarded him General Xuanyi, and helped him seize the Son of Heaven.

At present, it is similar, Li Dao is already aware of the matter, but has not yet gone through the formal process. Jia Xu also just learned that not long ago, he didn't have time to buy filial piety clothes, so because he was concerned about the situation and the people, he came to Tong Yuan's side first.

It is estimated that soon after he returns to Chang'an, he will return to Wuwei's hometown to guard filial piety.

Tong Yuan knew that this matter must be irreversible, did he really miss it?

"Dare to ask my husband if he returns to his hometown, will there be a safety worry? That Ma Teng and Han Sui know your prestige. ”

Jia Xu replied, "I really won't risk my life." However, it is estimated that Na Ma Teng and Han Sui will soon be on the table, at most a month. ”

Tong Yuan knew that Jia Xu would not be wrong, it seemed that if he occupied the territory in the past, he would really offend many people.

Jia Xu continued: "If Ma Teng and Han Sui's attitude towards the imperial court changes, I will transfer in advance. General Li will also give me a vacant position, not only to distribute the money, but also to have some say in the local area. So it's definitely okay on the safety side. ”

Tong Yuan didn't come up with a mature solution in the end, but he vaguely felt that Jia Xu had just taught him that things should be handled flexibly, and it was likely that he could be used in this incident.

Sorting out the goal and grasping the main problem, Wei Qi had already guided him once last year.

This time, he wanted to give Jia Xu a shocking answer that exceeded his expectations.

He broke off the idea of occupying the northwestern counties, but Ma Teng and Han Sui were still plundering various places. If this continues, the foundation he has planted there will probably be in vain.

What's more, he knew that the woman who saved him was probably an important member of the Four Seas Merchant Gang, how could he sit idly by?

Do you want to replicate the last operation to temporarily intimidate Hanoi? It's impossible, Ma Teng Han Sui is not comparable to Zhang Yang's strength.

The key to resolving this incident is not a solution, let alone a simple replication of previous behaviors. It is necessary to grasp what the purpose is, and the crux of the matter.

Last time, the purpose was to save the friendly army from poison and avoid a head-on battle with Yuan Shaojun. As a result, he grabbed the opponent's ally Zhang Yang and put pressure on the other party.

Then feigned a siege of Hanoi to achieve the result of a surprise attack to save people.

In the end, before Yuan Shao's army caught up with the decisive battle, he abandoned Hanoi, a sensitive place of four battles, and successfully took the class.

What to do this time?

After Jia Xu's pointing, the purpose of this time was not to occupy territory, but to return to saving people. Save people, save people from Ma Teng and Han Sui.

It can be achieved through court orders, military threats, private transactions, etc. Jia Xu just said that Ma Teng and Han Sui would be on the table within a month, isn't this just a loophole!

Tong Yuan suddenly realized after thinking about it carefully, it turned out that this was the great thing about the strategists, and for the first time he realized that human philosophy and thinking were so practical and existent.
