Hearing Xun Yu's words, Xi Zhicai's heart seemed to set off a monstrous wave, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Wen Ruo, you mean?" The relationship between Cheng Yu and Xun Yu is not as close as Xi Zhicai, and he doesn't know what Xun Yue's ability is, but after listening to the conversation between the two, he probably understands it in his heart.

"If nothing else, Zhuge Kongming's ability in the future will definitely not be inferior to so." Xun Yu nodded slightly, and said in a flat tone.

"It can't be!" Cheng Yu looked shocked and said in disbelief: "How can anyone in this world be comparable to you in terms of internal affairs?" ”

How strong is Xun Yu's ability? Cheng Yu and others who have worked with Xun Yu couldn't be clearer. was called "my son's room" by Cao Cao, but in the eyes of Cheng Yu and others, Xun Yu not only competed with Zhang Liang, but also added Xiao He. Whether it is giving advice, the overall situation or the internal affairs and logistics capabilities, they are all desperately strong, at least none of the many strategists under Cao Cao dare to say that they can beat Xun Yu in any aspect, and they can't even do it.

There are many strategists in the world like stars, but Xun Yu must be one of the most shining ones, definitely enough to rank in the top three, and even rank first is a matter of course. No matter how restrained and low-key Xun Yu usually is, his real ability is placed there, that is, Cao Cao did not give him room to display in the previous situation, otherwise if he was under the command of Yuan Shu, he would definitely be the first strategist to overwhelm Tian Feng, Jia Xu and others.

"Although I don't want to admit it, but that's what my brother said, today's Zhuge Kongming is much stronger than me at this age, if nothing else, it's only a matter of time before he catches up with or even surpasses me, after all, I didn't have such a luxurious cultivation environment at the beginning." Xun Yu smiled slightly bitterly.

Born in the Xun family, he has been taught by top advisers such as Xun Yue and the elders of the Xun family since he was a child, Xun Yu's teachers are already top-notch, even the Yuan family can't do this. But compared to Zhuge Liang, who is now being cultivated by Yuan Shu with the power of a country, it is a small thing. After all, no matter how powerful the Xun family is, it is impossible for him to provide him with such a large testing ground for the southwestern countries to practice.

"Another pervert?" Xi Zhicai sighed slightly and muttered to himself.

If it is said that in the past, the military strategists such as internal affairs strategists and Xi Zhicai were still in a state of confrontation, then after Yuan Shu's royal road crushed the princes of the world, the internal affairs strategists completely overwhelmed the latter.

No matter how resourceful you are and how wonderful your art of war is, you will crush you with strength by relying on the strength of your own heritage. The national strength is so strong that Yuan Shu's current situation is that he can do whatever he wants. As long as the generals under his command are not fools, there is no need to do anything else, and 200,000 elite troops are sent out every year to invade Yuan Shao, no matter whether they win or lose, after three or five years, Yuan Shao will be abolished. Even if the young and strong are not exhausted, the money and food will definitely not be able to support it.

Ordinary internal affairs strategists are okay, and the existence of Xun Yu is completely a denial for Xi Zhicai's military strategists.

"Is this kind of existence possible?" Cheng Yu's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a calm tone.

Seeing that Cheng Yu was sick again, Xi Zhicai hurriedly stopped: "Zhongde, don't come nonsense." We are still sending people under the fence now, with Yuan Shu's attention to this son, if you make an accident, let alone us, even the lord will follow the funeral. ”

"Of course I know. But if you can't do it on the surface, it doesn't mean that you can't do it secretly, you can't do it now, it doesn't mean that you can't do it in the future. If this son is really as terrible as Wen Ruo says and cannot be used by us, then we must strangle it. Otherwise, what hope do we have in the future to defeat Yuan Highway and return to the Central Plains? Cheng Yu said in a deep voice.

is not like the general strategist with a gentle temperament, Cheng Yu and the former Jia Xu have a cold personality. The difference is that Jia Xu can do whatever it takes to save his life, while Cheng Yu is so that Cao Cao can give up everything and do anything that angers and resents people.

"Zhongde, the Han people in the world are one, but now after the defeat, we and Yuan Shu are no longer mortal enemies before, but allies. From the standpoint of the Han people, we must not do anything about this. What's more, with Da Chu's current situation, what's the use of killing a Zhuge Liang? Unless Yuan Shu is killed, it will all be in vain. Xun Yu also discouraged. He knows very well what kind of person Cheng Yu is, he has a stubborn temperament, and he dares to do anything when he initiates madness, if he doesn't persuade him, this guy may really dare to kill Zhuge Liang, and when the time comes, they and Yuan Shu will really be endless.

"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that we can't compete with Yuan Highway. It is unlikely that a counteroffensive will be in the Central Plains in his lifetime, and the situation in the West is also very complicated, none of the three major empires is easy, and there are many small countries, it is difficult to survive among them, let alone develop forces. Our relationship with Yuan Shu must not be stiffened, otherwise we will really kill ourselves. Xi Zhicai sighed lightly.

It was already destined that they would follow Cao Cao to go abroad and move westward to serve as the leader of the Han people's outward migration and the pawn of Yuan Shu. But for the difficulties that will be encountered, Xi Zhicai is still worried. Traveling to an unfamiliar environment, there are not many people and soldiers under his command. How to gain a firm foothold, assimilate the local people to develop and grow, how to solve the problems of communication and customs to make the local people come to heart, etc., these kinds of problems directly make Xun Yu and others feel big.

However, a population of hundreds of thousands seems like a lot, but how difficult is it to grow into a big country or even an empire? How such a small population can assimilate the local people instead of being assimilated is a huge problem.

"After we moved west, the biggest problem was population and sinicization. In this case, we must rely on Yuan Highway, and Zhuge Kongming cannot move. Xun Yu said in a deep voice.

"But Yuan Highway himself is short of population, can he help us solve these problems?" Cheng Yu questioned.

They have not been in Jinling for so long, and they have also figured out the bottom of Yuan Shu, and they have become more and more aware of the importance of population. Yuan Shu, who has nearly 30 million people under his command, is still worried about the scarcity of the population, how can this not make them frightened. Eventually, they also understood the nature of national power and the importance of population.

Yuan Shu's current situation is that there are a lot of people, but there are not many people who can be transferred out, and they can't give them much support at all.

"Yuan Highway can't, but the family can." Xun Yu said.

"Then why do we still have to fight with Yuan Highway? Isn't it okay to go directly to the family? Cheng Yu was puzzled.

Xun Yu sighed slightly and glanced at Xi Zhicai.

"Yuan Highway can tolerate us going out, but only if we follow his rules. Although it will not violate Yuan Shu's bottom line if he contacts the family privately, the civil and military forces under Yuan Shu's command will definitely be more wary and resistant to us, which will not be conducive to future development. After all, the family is now just a plaything of Yuan Highway, attached to Da Chu. Xi Zhicai spoke up.

Xun Yu nodded: "What Zhicai said is good. Although our Han people are strong, we also have the strength to fight against the other three empires, and we can even be called strong opponents. In this case, infighting is not a good thing. As Yuan Highway said, it is too useless to only focus on this piece of the world, and since we go out, we must lay a foundation for the Han people. For this reason, it is best to keep pace with the other Maisons. Even if you want to attack back the Central Plains, you have to wait until the general trend has been decided. ”
