The man standing in the middle was about thirty-five or six, seven feet long, with a thin build, thin eyes and long hair, and a slightly pale complexion. With a high mountain crown on his head and a black and gold helmet, he gives people the feeling of being majestic and powerful.

This person is none other than Cao Cao, the founder of the Wei State, one of the protagonists of the Three Kingdoms.

To Cao Cao's left, stood a burly man.

This man looked younger than Cao Cao, wearing brown armor, a military helmet, a handsome complexion, and a blue cloak on his back.

He is the first general under Cao Cao and the founding father of Wei - Xiahou Dun.

Xiahou Xuan, the character Yuan Rang, a native of Peiguo (now Bozhou, Anhui), after Xiahou Ying, the servant of the Western Han Dynasty, and the brother of Xiahou Yuan.

This man was a fierce and warlike man, and when he was fourteen years old, he killed his teacher in dishonor, and as a boy he became famous in the village for his courage.

When Cao Cao raised troops to defeat the Yellow Turban Army, he was one of Cao Cao's earliest generals.

Later, during the battle with Lü Bu's army, he was once taken hostage, and was blinded in the left eye by a stray arrow, becoming a one-eyed general.

But at this time, Xiahoudun had not yet participated in the battle of Lu Bu (because Lu Bu was dead, it is likely that he could not meet him on this historical line), so his eyes were still intact and did not become a "blind Xiahou" in history.

It was more than half an hour outside the palace gate, but the little emperor did not show up for a long time. Xiahoudun, who had a strong temperament, was inevitably a little anxious, and complained with a displeased face:

"It's been so long and you haven't come out? Lord, do you want me to go in and urge it? ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao shook his head and replied: "Don't make a mistake!" If you don't want to wait, just wait outside the city, don't make trouble here. ”

Hearing what the lord said, Xiahoudun had to shut his mouth stupidly. But after being quiet for less than three seconds, I heard him open his mouth again and say:

"My lord, there is one thing I have never been able to figure out. Our battle with the Black Mountain Thieves in Dongjun is at a critical point, but you suddenly Mingjin withdrew his troops and came here to accompany the little emperor to hunt, what's the reason for this? ”

Seeing Xiahoudun ask about this, Cao Cao did not rush to reply, but with an unfathomable smile, he turned his head to the civil official man on his right and said:

"Xun Sima, what do you think of what Yuan Rang asked?"

Xun Sima in Cao Cao's mouth is about thirty years old.

This person has a great figure, a delicate face, a long-distance travel crown on his head, a purple court dress, elegant manners, and free conversation. There is a breath of elegance in his bones, and he is definitely a standard beautiful man.

If you get close to it, there is a faint fragrance on this person's body, which makes people feel like they have been sprayed with perfume.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was rare for a man to "dress up" himself like this, and this person was Xun Yu, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms who was praised as "Wang Zuozhicai" by later generations.

Xun Yu, the character Wenruo, Yingchuan County, Yingyin County (now Xuchang, Henan) people. He was a famous politician and strategist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and he was also the chief strategist and hero of Cao Cao's unification of the north.

His contribution to Cao Cao in this life is very great:

In terms of strategy, he planned a blueprint and military route for Cao Cao to unify the north;

In terms of tactics, whether it was facing Lü Bu, Yuan Shao, or later Liu Biao and Sun Quan, he offered very clever strategies to help Cao Cao defeat one strong enemy after another;

Politically, he also recommended countless talents for Cao Cao, such as Zhong Xuan, Xun You, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and others were all recommended by Xun Yu to Cao Cao.

Therefore, this person has made achievements in planning, plotting, Kuang Bi, and lifting people, and it is really not an exaggeration to say that he is "Wang Zuozhicai".

And Xun Yu in the early days originally worked under Yuan Shao.

But after a period of contact, he found out that Yuan Shao was not the emperor in his heart, so he switched to Cao Cao's command not long ago.

Seeing Xun Yu come to vote, Cao Cao was overjoyed, and as soon as he met, he called the other party "my son's room", and ordered him to be Sima of other departments, with a rank greater than a thousand stones.

Because this winter hunt was particularly important, Cao Cao also took Xun Yu with him.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao suddenly threw the problem to himself, and Xun Yu was stunned for a moment.

But he soon guessed that the lord might want to take the opportunity to test himself.

After all, he has only joined the Cao army for two months, and there are still many things that he does not know between the monarchs and ministers, so it is normal to have this test.

Therefore, after a short period of thought, I heard Xun Yu open his mouth and reply:

"In my opinion, it seems ridiculous that the lord abandoned the battle of Dongjun and went to accompany the saint to hunt in winter, but in fact it is clever, and it is a very far-sighted strategy."

As soon as these words came out, I saw Cao Cao smiling, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

But Xiahoudun, who was standing on the side, looked confused, didn't understand what the cleverness of this move was, and asked with a confused face:

"Sima Xun, can you make it clearer? What is brilliant and far-sighted, why can't I see it? ”

"Captain Xiahou (at this time, Xiahou was serving as Captain Zhichong), if there is chaos today, the Han family is in danger. If you want to support the Han family and reunify the world, the most brilliant way is to serve the Son of Heaven to order the princes. As early as a few months ago, the lord sent a letter to the saint and invited him to go hunting in Xu Tian, which should be planning for this. ”

"To order the princes of the Son of Heaven?" Xiahoudun repeated a sentence as if he didn't understand.

"That's right!" Xun Yu nodded and said:

"Although the royal family of the Han family has declined, no matter how you say it, he is also the pride of the sky. If you exercise your authority in the name of God, it will be much easier to get things done. If the general still doesn't understand, you can think about Dong Zhuo before, he is a good example. ”

"Oh, that's right...... Ay? Didn't the old thief Dong be overthrown in the end? This method may not be easy, right? ”

"Dong Zhuo's downfall, in the final analysis, is because of his tyranny, if he can be a little more restrained, he may not really go to extinction."

Speaking of this, I saw Xun Yu glance at Cao Cao with his head sideways, and continued:

"And our lord is a loyal minister of the Han family, and it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake, so there is no need to worry about it."

I thought that after talking about the matter of "ordering the princes of the Son of Heaven", Xiahoudun would be quiet.

But I didn't expect that it would only take a few breaths, so I heard him open his mouth again and ask:

"Then you can do this with just one winter hunt?"

"If it's just an ordinary hunt, of course it won't work." Xun Yu shook his head and replied: "But now, the Holy Lord is willing to move Xu Tian, so that's another matter!" ”

"Uh...... I still don't get it. Why is the saint willing to go to Xu Tian, we have a chance? Xiahoudun was still confused.

"According to common sense, when the saint goes out hunting, he will not easily leave the territory of Luoyang. But this time, he was willing to go near and far, and promised the lord to go hunting in Xu Tian, which was four hundred miles away, which showed that they must have something to ask for this time. And we can use this to achieve our goals! ”
