Chapter 207 Yuan Shu took the opportunity to say Yuan Shu in Yangzhou Xun Yu took the opportunity to say Yuan Shu
Xun You passed for more than half a month, and the group finally arrived in Nanyang in a mighty way, with Xun You as the messenger, and Wen Ping led five hundred tigers and leopards to escort Xun You and his party!
Of course, this time on the mission, Xun You did not carry the jade seal with the mission, but printed the jade seal on the holy decree, and then went to Nanyang with the holy decree!
However, when Xun Yu arrived in Nanyang, Yuan Shu had already led his troops to Yangzhou! At this time, the history of Yangzhou was Chen Wen, but although Chen Wen had the position of assassin, he did not have this strength.
In addition to the 50,000 troops under Chen Wen of the assassin Shi in Yangzhou, the rest of the princes also have Danyang Taishou Wu Jing, Wu Jun Taishou Shengxian, Luling Taishou Zhang Tao, Huiji Taishou Zhong Xuan, Lujiang Taishou Liu Xuan, these princes also have more or less tens of thousands of troops!
Yuan Shao's dispatch of troops to Yangzhou was not smooth sailing, but the main reason was that Nanyang County did not border Yangzhou, and Yuan Shu either borrowed Jiangxia and other counties from Liu Biao to attack Lujiang County, or he wanted Sun Ce to attack Lujiang by means of Runan, Anfengjin and other places.
However, these counties are not under Yuan Shu's rule, and Yuan Shu has no choice but to make Sun Ce, wanting to borrow Runan and other places under the rule of Yuzhou!
Yuan Shu's envoy to Sun Ce undoubtedly achieved great success, Yuan Shu followed the advice of his advisor Yan Xiang, stationed 200,000 troops preparing to attack Yangzhou on the border of Yuzhou, and then sent envoys to Yuzhou to negotiate!
Sun Ce was hindered by Yuzhou's new gains and was still unstable; At the same time, because the army was not enough to deal with Yuan Shu's 200,000 army;
Moreover, Zhou Yu offered advice to Sun Ce and said: "If Yuan Shu attacks Yangzhou, he will definitely not return to the land of Nanyang, so that the lord can seize the rich land of Nanyang when Yuan Shu attacks Yangzhou!" ”
Sun Ce was very moved by this, so he agreed to Yuan Shu's request, and at the same time opened up a front passage for Yuan Shu along Runan and Anfengjin!
And when Xun Yu arrived in Nanyang, Yuan Shu led the army out of Runan County, and it was about to enter Lujiang County in half a month!
After Xun You learned where Yuan Shu was, he immediately led the delegation to Yuan Shu's army, and finally after another ten days, when Yuan Shu was about to arrive in Lujiang, Xun You rushed to Yuan Shu's camp!
"I wonder what the envoy is doing this time?" Yuan Shu is not a deep person, and when he saw Xun You's envoy, he asked directly!
"My lord learned that Ming Gong wanted to conquer Yangzhou, and sent a certain person to save Ming Gong's life, and at the same time sent a fortune to Ming Gong, I don't know if Ming Gong is willing to take it?" Xun You opened his mouth and said!
"Oh, save my life, but I don't see what danger I have?" Yuan Shu said proudly!
"Ming Gong's disaster is not far away!"
"What's the explanation?" Strategist Yan Xiang asked!
"Ming Gong is now taking advantage of the road to attack Yangzhou, but Nanyang, the foundation of the land, is empty, if others come to attack, what should Ming Gong do?" Xun You asked!
"It turns out that this is the case, and we are also planning this matter for the lord on this expedition! Although my lord set out with an army of 200,000 this time, there were still nearly 100,000 troops in Nanyang led by the general Ji Ling and the advisor Xun Zheng.
Cao Cao and Liu Duhu were newly defeated and unable to go south; Wuguan is in the hands of my lord, although Liu Duhu is powerful, but he has no geographical advantages, and he cannot be worried;
Sun Ce's new Yuzhou people are unstable, the army is insufficient, and he is an alliance with my lord, and he cannot be feared; Although Liu Biao in Jingzhou has strong soldiers, he has no unscrupulous generals and enterprising spirit.
In this way, the army of 100,000 of our lord is enough to be feared! Yan Xiang smiled when he heard this, and then explained!
"Brother Yan only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other. Nanyang is the land of four wars, and at the moment, the Ming Duke can defeat any prince with a crowd of 100,000.
It is also true that Brother Yan said that my lord and Cao Cao are indeed unable to attack Nanyang; Although Liu Biao is powerful, he has no enterprising heart!
But this is not the case with Sun Ce in Yuzhou, first of all, Sun Ce obtained Yuzhou was recommended by Cao Cao in Yanzhou, because Cao Cao was kind to Sun Ce;
secondly, assisted by Sun Ce's Zhou Yu, although Yuzhou is not completely stable, it still has the strength to fight;
Third, if Sun Ce is seen attacking Nanyang, Liu Biao, who has a feud with Sun Ce, may not send troops.
How can Ming Gong Nanyang be guarded in this way? If Nanyang is lost, will the sergeant of the Ming Gong Army still attack Yangzhou with the Ming Gong? Is the defeat of the Ming Duke not far away? Xun You didn't give Yan Xiang face at all, and directly pointed out the loopholes in Yan Xiang's strategy!
"No, it won't be like this, Sun Ce has an alliance with my lord, how can he break the covenant by breaking his promise?" Yan Xiang still muttered in disbelief.
"This time Sun Ce borrowed the Tao to Ming Gong is the best proof! Ming Gong tried to imagine, if Sun Ce borrowed from Ming Gong, Ming Gong would have no requirements? Xun You further said!
"Of course, at least I will ask Sun Ce for food and grass!" Yuan Shu replied without thinking!
"In this way, did Sun Ce make a request to Ming Gong?" Xun You asked!
After Xun You's question, Yuan Shu was completely stunned, and all the civil and military generals present had no words for a full cup of tea!
Seeing this, Xun You smiled slightly, secretly thinking that this mission had been half successful, and then said: "This time it is not that Sun Ce did not ask for it from Ming Gong, but that Sun Ce has already fallen in love with Nanyang, and is preparing to attack Yangzhou when Ming Gong is scorching and plotting to seize Nanyang." And if it is handled properly, Sun Ce can also follow Ming Gong to seize Yangzhou after capturing Nanyang, which is killing two birds with one stone! ”
Doubt is a seed that sprouts, and once planted in the heart, it will slowly sprout and grow rapidly. Yuan Shu was convinced of Sun Ce's words at first, but just now he was only a little skeptical, but now he is convinced of Xun You's words!
In this way, after Yuan Shu thought for a while, he opened his mouth and said to Xun You: "If it is as Xun Gong said, what should I do at this moment?" ”
"There are three plans for Ming Gong's reference, the upper plan: Ming Gong can lead the army back to Nanyang, and from now on there will be no more thoughts of attacking Yangzhou, and Sun Ce, Liu Biao, and Cao Cao will be reconciled, and he will become a vassal of one of these three people in the future, and his life can be guaranteed!
Scheme: Ming Gong is in Yuzhou at this time, can lead a large army to raid Sun Ce, although Sun Ce in Yuzhou is on guard at this time, but under the raid, Ming Gong may be able to seize one or two counties, but in this way, Jingzhou Liu Biao will inevitably take advantage of the void, and Sun Ce will fight with Ming Gong endlessly!
Strategy: Ming Gongquan should not know about this, continue to attack Yangzhou, and then hand over all the power of life and death to Sun Ce in Yuzhou! Xun You said lightly!
When Yuan Shu heard this, his face was uncertain, and he waited for a long time, and then he spoke again: "Xun Gong said before that he came to rescue Yu Wu this time; The second is to send a fortune to me. However, the previous three strategies were not the solution to my Yuan Shu! But I don't know how Xun Gong rescued me? What does wealth say? ”
"This time, the lord of my family mainly asked Yu to send the long-lost jade seal to the Ming duke, but the Ming duke is in this situation, but the jade seal of the country is not a rich and good thing!" Xun You opened his mouth and said!
"What? Heirloom jade seal? Liu Duhu found the jade seal of the country? Isn't Xun Gongmo making fun of me? If Liu Bei gets the jade seal of the country, he can pass on the jade seal of the country and ascend the throne as the emperor, so why should he send it to my Yuan Shu? Yuan Shu said excitedly!
"My lord Liu Bei is a relative of the Han family, so naturally he will not stand on his own feet in the Han family. If today's son is captured by Cao thieves, if the jade seal of the country is returned to the Son of Heaven, it will lead Cao thieves to covet it, or harm the Son of Heaven.
My lord thinks that when the only Ming Gong and my lord who are loyal to the Han Dynasty today, in order to show that our lord is loyal to Liu Han in the world, my lord is willing to send the jade seal of the country to the Ming Duke as a proof, and he will be together in the future to Kuangfu Liu Han in the world! I don't know what to do? Xun You said!
"My Yuan Shu is naturally loyal to the Han family, but now he is trapped in Yuzhou, and he can't advance or retreat. Yuan Shu was a little covetous, and said helplessly!
"If Ming Gong is willing, my lord has a plan to change Ming Gong's unfavorable situation at this time!" Xun You suggested!
"Really?" Yuan Shu asked excitedly!
It was when the dragon was trapped in the shallows that he was helpless, and someone sent a clever plan overnight, wanting to know what happened next, and listening to the next decomposition!
