Jizhou, Yecheng.

In the government affairs hall, Fu Zhu handed over some of the latest information to Yuan Shao for review, and among them, there was naturally the latest hot order to seek talents.

The order is like a strong wind, not only blowing the land in the north, but even agitating the Quartet, and the first to get it is Yuan Shao, who is in Jizhou, in addition to Guanzhong and Hongnong.

"Humph!" Yuan Shao glanced up and down a few times, then threw the paper with the order copied on the table on the table, and there was a faint hint of anger in his eyebrows.

Talent Hunting!

Why ask for hyun?

Isn't it just to tell the people of the world that now the Han Emperor Liu Xie wants to rise up, talents, and the support of the world?

And then from another aspect, doesn't it faintly show that these princes who are holding various flags around them, including Yuan Shao, are not "virtuous", so they especially come to seek talents?

How can this make Yuan Shao's heart happy?

But I can't say it, and it's hard to say.

Fu Zhu was sitting on the seat, looked at Yuan Shao's expression, pondered for a moment, and then arched his hand and said, "Duke Ming is worried about this recruitment order?" ”

Yuan Shao nodded in acquiescence.

Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan had a temporary truce.

Of course, the name and face of the imperial court is one aspect, but it is only a very small aspect, more because the battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Chan has consumed too much, resulting in a very tight grain and grass for a while, and in this period of time, whether it is the scholars of Jizhou or Yuan Shao himself, they are no longer able to support the army to march long distances to conquer Gongsun Zhan, so they simply push the boat down the river and sell some face to the court.

But this does not mean that Yuan Shao put the imperial court in the first place, so naturally when he received this order to seek talent, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

If the power of the Central Imperial Court is strengthened, then Yuan Shao can jump for a few days?

Frustrated Professor looked at Yuan Shao and said, "Why should Ming Gong worry too much, this strategy is easy to break......"

"Oh?" Yuan Shao suddenly became interested, and said, "Please also ask the public to give advice." ”

Fu Zhu stroked his beard and said: "Ming Gong now supports the soldiers of Jizhou, leads the loyal and brave people, and is famous all over the world, who doesn't know, who doesn't know?" Now you can go to the table, please welcome the big driver, one can avoid the power of the side, the other can also recruit the world's talents, so that the years, the brave soldiers, to order the world, cut down the disobedient generation, who can be the enemy? ”

"This ......" Yuan Shao nodded slightly after hearing this, but did not show any clear attitude.

The above table welcomes the Han Emperor?

Of course, if you look at the strategy operation, the advice of Frustration is really good.

But......

"What the public said is also reasonable, and I will consider one or two ......" Yuan Shao did not make any reply in the end, but said to Fu Zhi, then stood up and ended the conversation.

Frustrated Professor opened his mouth, originally wanting to say something more, but seeing that Yuan Shao had already stood up and turned to the back hall, he sighed slightly and lowered his head.

Yuan Shao hesitated.

Speaking of which, Yuan Shao really only thought about Kuang Fu Sheji at first, and he didn't want to replace the Liu family of the Han Dynasty much. When he left the court and came to Jizhou, Yuan Shao just wanted to prove himself, and wanted everyone in the world to know how loyal he Yuan Shao was, how he cared about China, how worried about the country and the people, and how wise and martial......

But at this time, I don't know if it was from that moment, in Yuan Shao's heart, there seemed to be a voice whispering softly: "Acting for Han, Tu Gaoye." ”

Maybe it was from the day Liu Yu rejected him?

Maybe, Yuan Shao is not sure.

At that time, Dong Zhuo controlled the court, and repeatedly used the orders of the court to order Yuan Shao, although Yuan Shao himself made himself a general of the chariot and cavalry, but after all, he was not recognized by the government and the opposition, so in this case, Yuan Shao naturally wanted to seek another solution.

At that time, Yuan Shao's strategic layout was actually very simple, if Liu Yu agreed, then the two sides joined forces, attacked from the north and south, and cleaned up Gongsun Zhan, and then Jizhou would have no worries, and naturally he could follow the grand strategy formulated by Yuan Shao when he was young, leading the Hebei soldiers, all the way to the south, defeating Yuan Shu, who made him and his disgust, this world, it was up to him Yuan Shao to have the final say.

Perhaps at that time, Yuan Shao was still willing to respect the Han and achieve his own career under the banner of the Han Dynasty, but Liu Yu refused.

But now it seems that fortunately, Liu Yu refused......

Now Yuan Shao feels as if he is standing on a fork in the road, and then go left or right?

Yuan Shao hesitated.

The suggestion of the frustrated professor is undoubtedly to go back to the path that Liu Yu rejected before......

But with such a road, Yuan Shao now doesn't want to go back and go again. The previous Yuan Shao wanted to prove himself, to prove that the discrimination and unequal treatment before Yuan Kui were wrong, and to prove that among the younger generation of the Yuan family, only he was the best he deserved, and wanted to prove that he Yuan Shao could also do as well as Yuan Kui, ranking among the three princes and dominating the world.

However, now, it seems that there is another choice, a new path, one that is higher than Yuan Kui, a path that surpasses the ancestors of the Yuan family......

Of course, Yuan Shao is of course very clear about what it means to take such a path, so he is hesitant now.

Yuan Shao held his hands and looked up at the sky.

"What's next?"

"Father, what would you do if you were alive......

………………………………

The order for talent was transmitted to Jizhou, and naturally it was also transmitted to Yanzhou, which was not too far away.

“…… How could he have thought ......" Guo Jia shook his head, halfway through his sentence, but sighed and did not continue.

The pen in Xun's hand paused, and then he continued to write something on a wooden slip, and then put down the pen, only then raised his head and said to Guo Jia: "Seeking merit?" ”

"Hmm......" Guo Jia twisted left and right, changed to a more casual sitting position, then closed his eyes slightly, and shook his head, "...... I really started to do it......"

Xun frowned, and the beautiful and clean eyebrow line converged in the middle of his forehead, leaving a few wrinkles that would make people feel distressed when they saw it, "...... Bonghyo, you mean ......"

“…… Not only that, but also the previous bet......" The corners of Guo Jia's mouth twitched, revealing a strange face that didn't know whether it was happy or sad, "...... Counting the time, it's almost three years...... This...... Alas...... Is there really such a person in this world? Three years, could he have planned all this three years ago? ”

"It can't be!" Xun said categorically, and then repeated, "...... This, this shouldn't be possible......"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Then it can only be seen as a coincidence?" Of course, it can only be seen as a coincidence......"

After speaking, the two of them couldn't help but fall silent.

Because this kind of thing is inevitably a little incredible for two people.

If only one or two people are involved, planning three years in advance, it is somewhat reasonable, but this involves almost all the people in the world, so that the things involved are not a little bit more than a little bit more, a little change on either side may change the direction of the whole event, if in this case, you can plan three years in advance, and you can accurately promote the current rhythm, it is indeed an incredible thing.

But no matter how incredible things are, when they happen, they become a reality.

"Let's talk about how to deal with it first...... The two of them were silent for a moment, Xun took the lead in breaking this invisible shackle and said, "...... The lord is now in Xuzhou...... Back and forth, although it is not long, but if there is a change, it is more appropriate to come up with a strategy first......"

Cao Cao took the Qingzhou soldiers to Xuzhou.

At this time, there is nothing to do with Cao Cao's father, or rather, Cao Cao doesn't think that his father will have anything to do, of course, there may be another reason, that is, Cao Cao has been burned by the current fire and can't take care of his own father.

Anyway, at this point in time, Cao Cao and his father still have no, and he is still a happy old man of two or three hundred pounds.

The main reason why Cao Cao wanted to go to Xuzhou was to find something to eat. Ten thousand enemies seem to be good, but if you really go into battle, unless you are in the fantasy world, how can you really use it as 10,000 people? So most of the time, more soldiers are needed, and these soldiers naturally need more food and grass.

In order to solve this problem, but also to win the hearts of the Qingzhou soldiers, Cao Cao finally decided to take the Qingzhou soldiers to Xuzhou as a guest, and eat a few meals by the way......

The people of Xuzhou are very disgusted with these uninvited poor relatives from afar, naturally it is impossible to have a good face, and it is impossible to take out grain and grass for Cao Cao, so Cao Cao took the case, well, no, it was directly overturned the table.

Boss Tao, the boss of the Xuzhou gang, of course, was very dissatisfied with Cao Cao's behavior of violating the territory and crossing the boundary, and in the case of ineffective dissuasion, he took soldiers and horses to give Cao Cao a little color to see, but he didn't expect that in front of the hungry Qingzhou soldiers, these Shandong men with big shoulders and round waists in Xuzhou did not exert the general strength of Wu Song, but were defeated and retreated like Wu Dalang, and finally had to retreat to Tancheng.

Since it is a Qingzhou soldier, in order to avoid suspicion, naturally Xun can't follow the army too closely, and he won't even ask Xun, and Guo Jia can go with Cao Cao, but it's a pity that Guo Jia's body is ......

So in the end, Wei Qi followed, and Xun and Guo Jia stayed in Yanzhou.

“…… Yes, you have to correspond, but how to correspond? Guo Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This is awarded by the Son of Heaven, why don't you reprimand the Son of Heaven?" Or is it an order that no one else is allowed to go? Or simply not to publish this merit search order? Hehe...... Zhengxi's hand, I played well......"

"......" Xun was speechless for a while.

As soon as this merit-seeking order was issued, naturally people who were interested knew the role of General Fei Qian, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, why didn't there be any movement before, but he made such a move when he arrived in Pingyang?

But herein lies the problem.

Although it is natural for the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty to issue an order to seek talents, from the Han Dynasty to the present, which Son of Heaven has issued an order to seek talents on the territory of the princes? Of course, this may be because of coincidence, Liu Xie, the son of the Han Dynasty, may not have had any opportunity to publicly express his attitude and strategy towards the country's governance of the Han Dynasty, but this incident is also the first time in the history of the Han Dynasty, right?

It's a weird feeling, but I don't know what to say......

It's like diarrhea, I just lifted my pants and walked two steps, but it was a terrible colic, and then I had to do it all over again.

Of course, at this time, if you find that the only remaining pit you left is now occupied by another person, how will you feel ......

The current situation, for these scholars, is almost like this.

If you go, there won't be much benefit, but if you don't go, what if the pit is occupied?

Quite embarrassing anyway.

Seriously, the attraction of this merit-seeking order is not big enough for these scholars. It's not that the writing of the order is bad, or that there is something wrong with the words, but the person who released it, and the place where it was released, are really ......

Embarrassing.

If Liu Xie is five or six years older and located in the Imperial City of Luoyang, it would be more appropriate to issue this order to seek talent, but it is no longer a special secret that the current Han Emperor Liu Xie, when he is today's son, is still young, and the monarch's power is down, it is no longer a special secret, look at Er Yuan's actions, and then look at Yang Biao's behavior, the hearts of the world's corporal clans will inevitably murmur back. So is it really the right time to send the so-called elites at home to participate in this game of power struggle at this time?

Especially when there may be other local princely forces around you.

Therefore, for the vast majority of people, it is naturally the best policy to send out the children of the side branches, or even some of the people whose families have declined, as small stones to throw stones to ask for directions......

However, the situation in Yanzhou is somewhat different. Whether Cao Cao is serving as the Taishou of Dongjun or now serving as the assassin of Yanzhou, in fact, he does not pay too much attention to the people in Yanzhou, and the people around Cao Cao are still mainly people outside Yanzhou, such as Xun himself.

“…… Order all counties to be filial and honest......" Xun was silent for a long time, and then said, "...... Otherwise...... "Cao Cao did not give the position of Taishou of Dongjun to the people of Yanzhou, but gave it to Xiahou by cronyism, which has made the people of Yanzhou extremely dissatisfied.

There may not really be many people going, but there must be people who will take this to stir up the wind and rain, so vacate some positions, let the people in Yanzhou see some room for promotion, and somewhat appease the emotions of the Yanzhou scholars, which is what needs to be done at present, otherwise Cao Cao is leading the army, and if Yanzhou is unstable......
