『Chapter error, click here to report』
Yuan Shao got Liu Bei's request for help, and immediately discussed taking the opportunity to crusade against Cao Cao to rescue Liu Bei, but everyone said that this was a good opportunity, just to collect Qingzhou Bohai in the south and strengthen his strength again.
Discussions come and go, everything is good, but there is a Lu Peng child behind him, which makes Yuan Shao always feel that his back is always cold. However, Yuan Shao is really in a dilemma, not because the fifth son is sick and does not send troops, but because of the extra Lu Peng around him.
"Uniting Liu Bei to attack Cao Cao, at least we can take back Qingzhou, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but that Lu Peng child behind me is like a man's back, how will we solve it?" Yuan Shao bitterly expressed the worries in his heart.
This worry is obvious to all, and there is no need to hide it, and now everyone needs to come up with a charter to solve this worry.
After a period of silence in the lobby, Xu You first stood up and suggested to Yuan Shao: "Now that we are in the middle of two powerful power groups, we should join forces to fight one against the other, so that we can be at ease."
This time Liu Bei reoccupied Xuzhou, in the name of the edict of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, called on the heroes of the world to crusade against the traitor Cao *** forced Cao Cao to send troops south, and cut down Liu Bei's banner at all costs. ”
This is a broad strategic direction, and consensus must be reached.
Of course, everyone here understands this consensus, so there is no objection to it.
Xu You glanced around, and then talked eloquently: "If you want Lu Peng to watch from the wall, it's not a two-pronged approach of coercion and temptation. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military forces were speechless together.
On the surface, Yuan Shao Group is still the largest force in the north, but in fact, everyone already knows that it is Lu Peng who is pressing himself to fight.
In the spring, Lu Peng used the strategy of attacking the north and defending the south, and defending the north and attacking the south, completely destroying his spring sowing, so that in the autumn of this year, within the scope of his group, the crop yield was reduced in a large area, and there was a headache famine.
And all the schemes that this discerning man saw made people feel powerless. Now what kind of coercion and temptation to talk to Lu Peng - okay, it is possible to lure, but it is just another piece of meat, but coercion, that can only exist in everyone's imagination, after all, it requires strength, not just scolding, that is a shrew.
Seeing everyone's look of contempt, Xu You smiled and said: "As for the temptation, we will never cede half of the land, doesn't Lu Peng like money?" Didn't you reach a business agreement with Cao Cao? Well, we will also open our business to him, and also collect 4% tax from the merchants he sends, so that Lu Peng's personality of greed and love of money will definitely attract him. ”
At this point, everyone nodded in agreement, after all, everyone still does not know the role of the business and economic stick, thinking that this is simply a promise without any capital, and it will be given to him.
"What about coercion?" Yuan Shao humbly asked for advice. was pressed and beaten by Lu Peng for a year, and he really didn't know what he didn't use to coerce Lu Peng.
Xu You suddenly said with a dark face: "Borrow soldiers and be humble." ”
As soon as these words came out, the lobby became silent again, and then there were bursts of cold air suffocation.
The Xianbei territory directly borders and merges with the state, at this time Yuan Shao has been adopting a soft policy towards them, and the two sides are at peace, but everyone knows how much their side has paid for this.
If you borrow troops from Xianbei, it is equivalent to giving those barbarian peoples the truth to enter the Central Plains, when Zhang Cun rebelled, borrowed troops from Wuhuan, and as a result, Yuyang and other counties in Youzhou, what kind of life is it, but in just two years, the four counties in the east of Youzhou have almost become a blank land.
At that time, Zhang Cun was happy to sit firmly as the emperor for two years with the help of the Wuhuan people, but under his rule, there was no foundation for development and persistence, and there was no work of the people, so what kind of stamina did he have as an emperor? It's just a joke, and the result is that Liu Yu in Youzhou sent a third brother who sold straw shoes, with no more than 30,000 horses, and he was wiped out in a blink of an eye.
Borrowing soldiers from the barbarians is equivalent to cutting off one's own way of life, it can also be said to drink doves to quench thirst, and it can also be said that it is easy to invite God to send God, this is no longer a strong man breaking his wrist, but cutting flesh to mend sores.
For such a bad idea, everyone immediately criticized.
Xu You squinted his eyes and smiled silently, listening to the insults to himself, as if he was listening to singing.
didn't fight back at all when they were scolded, and everyone lost interest in scolding and scolding. Scolding this thing, the emphasis is on scolding to arouse interest, a person is scolding, how boring is that? So everyone slowly closed their mouths.
Xu You saw that everyone was no longer interested in scolding, so Shi Shiran said: "Actually, everyone misunderstood what I meant, I want to borrow troops from Xianbei, not to really let them enter our merger, but-" Pointing to the huge map on Yuan Shao's back: "Provoking Xianbei to invade the territory of Youzhou--Wuhuan's hometown." ”
This answer made everyone's eyes suddenly light up.
That's right, let Lu Peng take care of himself, this is the best way.
In fact, at this time, which is the largest state and county in the entire Dahan? Of course, it is Youzhou, to be precise, it is Youzhou controlled by Lu Peng.
Lü Peng's control of Youzhou is incomplete, and there are four counties in Liaodong in the hands of Gongsun Du, but this is not important, the important thing is that Lü Peng eliminated Wuhuan and completely included the entire grassland territory of Wuhuan into his jurisdiction.
How big is the original Wuhuan territory, just look at the hasty map, it is enough to have half the area of the land of the Han Dynasty, therefore, in the entire Han Dynasty, the nominally smallest of the pastoral territories of each state is Lu Peng, but the largest territory is also Lu Peng.
At this time, Xun Kan stood up and excitedly continued to explain for Xu You: "Mr. Xu is talented, he is really far-sighted. Then he stood in front of the map and said his opinion: "The reason why Lu Peng'er can achieve today's achievements is not that he won Wuhuan's hometown and mastered huge land resources, so that he can easily solve things that we can't crack." ”
It is true that in the face of the land annexation of the big families, everyone is helpless, but because Lu Peng has a large amount of grassland land, he came up with a policy of replacing grassland land with middle earth, so that this matter can be easily solved.
As a result, Lu Peng reached a bonfire covenant with the family by selling the grassland land, and took the family children as hostages to drive the family arms of the various families to the grassland.
When Lu Peng's financial resources were urgent, he used the method of selling grassland land to amass countless money again in an instant, so that his soldiers had enough food.
And—
Anyway, it's just one point, Lu Peng's ability to have today is the result of his desperate annihilation of Wuhuan at the beginning.
As a result, everyone didn't have his good life, and everyone didn't have this kind of courage and ability.
Now it is not an exaggeration to say that Wuhuan's hometown is Lu Peng's money bag, Lu Peng's stable rear, and the foundation of all Lu Peng's owns.
Touching his roots, this is definitely choking Lu Peng's lifeline, so that he has to bow down.
Yuan Shao laughed: "Mr. Xu's words made me pause, I thought of this strategy earlier, why should I be idle for so long?" Then he stood up and said to the ministers: "Send an envoy to Lu Peng immediately and tell him that if he doesn't know the current affairs, then I will ask Xianbei to send troops to Wuhuan's hometown." ”
