Xun Yu's heartfelt words made Liu Fan lose his mind for a while!

Yingchuan!

It was the first battle he fought to pacify the Yellow Turban, and it was also the first battle in which he really made great contributions.

The Battle of Changshe and the Battle of Yangzhai enabled him to stand up and refute the behavior of Huangfu Song and Zhu Wei.

There are eight passes in Luoyang, and there are military towns on the border of Sili. There is the Yellow River in the north.

Although Yingchuan is known as the "cradle" of celebrities, there is no danger to defend.

Historically, Yuan Shu controlled Nanyang and Runan, and controlled Yingchuan casually, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu and easily accepted Yingchuan.

Especially Xun Yu's last few words, Liu Fan was deeply touched.

The people are so supportive, the soldiers are in Luoyang, and they step into Yingchuan.

Even if Yingchuan Taishou was close to Yuan Shu and was used by Yuan Shu, he could also send troops to easily pacify the city.

It's just a little harder to keep. But did Yuan Shu really dare to turn his face to himself because of Yingchuan?

"I am ashamed that the people are like this. The people of Yingchuan wanted me to enter Yingchuan, but I was delayed because Yingchuan was a place of four wars. The old man's dying shout, I seem to hear it in my ears. I raise troops to fight for the people of the world. After every great war, many orphans, widows are left behind. The loss of a wife to her husband, the loss of a father to a child, and the loss of a son to a parent is one of the great tragedies in the world, and it is heart-wrenching every time I think about it. But war is a way to stop war, and it takes countless big men to fill the desires of ambitious people with their lives. Listening to your words, I think about it, I am disappointed in myself! ”

Liu Fan didn't feel tears.

"Prime Minister, this is crying for the world!"

Xun Yu said to Liu Fan, also in tears.

After a long time, Xun Yu wiped away his tears and said to Liu Fan: "Xun Yu's hometown is in Yingchuan, and it is not only selfish to invite the prime minister to enter Yingchuan. Once the prime minister takes down Yingchuan, Yingchuan has Luoyang to rely on. Yingchuan, which is backed by Luoyang, will make the princes of the world jealous. The soldiers of Nanyang did not dare to go east, the soldiers of Runan did not dare to go north, and the soldiers of Chen Liu did not dare to advance west. The prime minister's troops in Yingchuan can contain the princes of the world, not the highlands, but the dangers of the highlands. He, Ji, Huai, Si, and Jiang are important places in the world, but there is no danger because of the prime minister's troops in Yingchuan. Xun Yu believes that as long as there are 100,000 soldiers and horses in Yingchuan, and Yingchuan looks at Runan and Nanyang, the prime minister can form a trend of looking at the world. ”

"If it weren't for what Wen Ruo said, I really can't think of Yingchuan still having such strategic significance. Turn Yingchuan into a strong pass, as a starting point for the future southward and westward expansion. Temporarily stationed in Yingchuan heavy troops, looking at the world. Our army does not need to be garrisoned in the city, the cavalry and infantry are combined, and the elite soldiers and armor are invincible in the field! It's just that 100,000 soldiers and horses can't be mobilized yet, and the deterrence of the princes of the world may be insufficient. ”

Liu Fan suddenly, summing up Xun Yu's strategy, felt that this was a good strategy.

Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain, and those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a time.

Xun Yu's far-sighted vision made Liu Fan see the next step after pacifying Guanlong and Hanoi.

"But when the army attacked, Wang Kuang, Zhang Yang and others, he sent Yiliang into Yingchuan. Yuan Shugang and his brother fought for Yuzhou, during this time, he wanted to completely control Nanyang and Yuzhou, Yingchuan did not have many soldiers and horses, and entered Yingchuan with the banner of the prime minister, and the county orders would surrender to the lord one after another. Even if Yuan Shu learned that Yingchuan had lost control, he didn't dare to add soldiers to the prime minister for the time being. After the prime minister pacified Shanxi and Guanlong, Yuan Shu did not dare to be presumptuous. ”

Xun Yu suggested to Liu Fan.

"Good! Wen Ruo is really Wang Zuozhi's talent. In the past, I had a plan with Wenwu successively, but it was not as detailed as asking Wen Ruo about the time. I'm ready to do exactly what Wen Ruo wants. I am still planning to send troops to Guanlong today, but the meticulous art of war makes me hesitate. The arrival of Wenruo is a carbon in the snow for me, and I have Wenruo, like a fish in water. ”

After speaking, Liu Fan got up and bowed to Xun Yu and said, "In the Prime Minister's mansion, there is a lack of a straight one." I don't think there is a more suitable person in the world than Wen Ruo. I also ask Wen Ruo to work tirelessly to take on this responsibility. ”

Si Zhi, inspector of the capital hundred officials. Although the rank is only more than 2,000 stones, the position is above the captain of the division.

Liu Fan appointed Xun Yu as the director, and he could obviously participate in confidential and military affairs.

"When I first joined the company, I tended to be in this position, and it was really difficult to be competent."

Xun Yu hurriedly got up and saluted.

Si Zhi's position is not trivial, Xun Yu didn't expect Liu Fan to directly entrust this position to him.

"If Wen has the talents of Xiao He and Zhang Liang, even if he is in charge of the Son of Heaven, he can be an assistant to Wan Ji. To make Wen Ruo serve as the director, it is a condescending talent! ”

Liu Fan grabbed Xun Yu's hand and said to Xun Yu sincerely: "This is not a big responsibility, but a responsibility." The great Han has favored the world for 400 years, every family, from generation to generation, who dares to say that they have not received favors, what reason do you have not to serve the country? ”

"Xun Yu understands!"

Xun Yu stood upright, and then bowed to Liu Fan.

"Although Wen Ruo and I have known each other for a long time, I feel that I hate to meet late this time. If I make a mistake one day, you must remind me! In private, Wen Ruo and I are like brothers. ”

Liu Fan straightened Xun Yu and said solemnly.

"Everyone knows that the prime minister is proficient in the way of civil and martial arts, and who knows that the prime minister's mind is as boundless as the sea. The big man will be prosperous! ”

For Liu Fan's humility, Xun Yu sighed.

In this way, the two talked for an afternoon, and Xun Yu's views on politics made Liu Fan learn more.

……

Two days later, Liu Fan's greeting of Xun Yu spread.

Many people compare Liu Fan to Zhou Gong. What is even more amazing is that Liu Fan directly accepted Xun Yu, a famous man from Yingchuan, as a straight officer.

Although Xun Yu is famous, he is only a fledgling, but he was treated so solemnly by Liu Fan, and many people speculated about Xun Yu's ability.

It must be known that Yingchuan Xun is an important advisor under Liu Fan and the highest governor of Yushitai.

Now Xun Yu is also serving as the director of the supervision of hundreds of officials.

Xun Yu's uncle Xun Shuang is commonplace, and the Xun family is really about to rise.

For several days, Liu Fan gathered Jia Xu, Xun Yu, and Xun Yu, three confidants and advisers, to discuss the period of marching and the generals entering various places.

The number of generals under Liu Fan's command is limited, and it is impossible to go back and forth on the battlefields.

To attack Guanlong, you need three soldiers and horses. The importance of the land of Guanlong means that three generals must be dispatched.

Xu Huang of Wuguan was selected as the main force to attack Guanlong this time.

In front of Hangu Pass were Zhao Yun's Long Xiang cavalry and Duan Xuan's 10,000 soldiers.

On the other side of Fenglingdu are Gao Shun's subordinates. The 10,000 cavalry under Huang Zhong will be responsible for cooperating with other armies to pacify Shanxi.

The 10,000 cavalry of Shangjun was also mobilized by Liu Fan's military order.

This time, Liu Fan sent Guan Yu to lead his Yinshan Iron Cavalry and 10,000 cavalry into Yingchuan.

The remaining 20,000 cavalry under Guan Yu remained in Xin'an County and was temporarily mobilized by Liu Fan. Even if they attack from all sides, they must also leave heavy troops, one to support all sides at any time, and the other to respond to all changes.

Guan Yu is the number one tiger general under Liu Fan, and everyone in the world knows it.

He is a majestic pass, standing tall in Yingchuan, standing majestically and unmoving.
