Chapter 753: Xu Yu Envoy
As soon as Xu You's words came out, all the civil and military forces changed color one after another. Sure enough, Yuan Shao came back to his senses suddenly, slapped the case, rushed to the crown angrily, and roared with all his might: "Damn Liu Xizi and that Ma family child!" I only hate that I had a lot of opportunities to eradicate these two people back then, but because of a moment of soft-heartedness, or there are other troubles, so that now I am a tiger and a tiger, and I am even bitten back, angry with me, angry with me~~!! β
Seeing Yuan Shao's crazy appearance, all the civil and military officers were afraid, and they rushed out one after another, kneeling down to ask for guilt, in order to calm his anger.
"A bunch of useless garbage!! When something big happened, I knew that I was guilty, and when it was time to admonish, where did you go~!? Unbeknownst to everyone, everyone's actions caused Yuan Shao's anger even more, Yuan Shao hissed and abused, scolding everyone to the point that it could be described as bloody. The civil and military officers were terrified, and they all lowered their heads and made promises.
Only Xu Yu stood beside him, smiling. Yuan Shao saw that everyone was afraid of him, but this Xu You was the only one with a smiling face, he couldn't help frowning, showing a little displeasure, turned to Xu You's place, and asked in a cold voice: "Ziyuan seems to be confident, could it be that he already has a plan to deal with these two people?" β
When Xu You heard this, he smiled brightly, and then bowed to him, and then said in shock: "Back to the lord, small is indeed a little trick, I don't know if it is suitable or not." β
Yuan Shao was obedient, and couldn't help but feel shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Ziyuan, what's the plan?" Come on!! β
Xu You saw that Yuan Shao was so anxious, and he seemed to be important, so he was satisfied, and replied unhurriedly: "This is simple. Now Liu Bei lies in the plains, Leling, and Bohai counties. Among them, Leling originally belonged to Qingzhou, but now Qingzhou is obtained by Ma Xi. Ma Xi didn't want Leling to fall into Liu Bei's hands, but Liu Bei is now a member of the Han family after all, but Ma Xi didn't dare to rush into the army. The so-called famous teacher, why not help him, on the table of His Majesty, let His Majesty seal him as the general of the expedition to the north, temporarily lead the soldiers and horses of Yan and Qingzhou, and stabilize the people's livelihood in order to calm the war in Yan and Qingzhou. β
When Yuan Shao heard this, two fine lights shot out of his eyes in an instant, and he suddenly woke up and said: "In this way, that Ma Xi has his own reason to garrison Leling, and it is Liu Bei's righteous brother Guan Yunchang who guards Leling. Although this person is highly skilled, he is cold and arrogant, and even dares to despise the heroes of the world, and he will definitely refuse to give up Leling lightly! At that time, the two sides will inevitably have a fight. No matter who wins or loses, it will be of great benefit to our Hebei army, and of course it is best for both sides to fight and lose both. At that time, our Hebei army will also have enough time to regroup, and then annihilate Liu Bei and Ma Xi in one fell swoop, and be ashamed!! β
Yuan Shao said sharply, and immediately analyzed Xu You's strategy. Xu You smiled, and said respectfully: "The lord is smart, and you really admire it. β
"Hmph, although your strategy is good, I'm afraid that Cao Apu won't agree lightly! Don't forget that His Majesty is just a puppet in his hands today! Speaking of which, this Cao Apu is really cunning, and he dares to hold the world hostage to order the princes, it is really a wolf ambition, unforgivable!! Yuan Shao said angrily. Xu You listened, but secretly pouted, at the beginning of the frustration and he had repeatedly persuaded him to rush in front of the princes and welcome the Son of Heaven to Yecheng to establish the capital, but the leisurely and indecisive Yuan Shao was afraid that if the Son of Heaven was welcomed back, there would be a lot of civil and military changes under his command, and he would even lose his power because of this, so he had been hesitant. And when he saw the real pros and cons again, the Son of Heaven had already returned to Luoyang with Cao Cao and reorganized the new dynasty.
At present, Yuan Shao is clearly jealous of Cao Cao, and he is unwilling. Xu You didn't know how to see through it, and reassured: "The lord doesn't have to worry about this. That Liu Xizi aside, now that Ma Xi's power has expanded, Cao Cao is also extremely jealous, after all, Yanzhou is close to the Central Plains, and then his father is in Yong and Liangzhou, maybe one day Ma Xi will unite with his Lao Tzu to raise the slogan of King Qin and attack the Central Plains together. Therefore, if the lord wants to deal with Ma Xi, Cao Cao will not only not stop him, but will vigorously support it! β
Yuan Shao listened to Xu You's analysis, but felt that it was very reasonable, and he was happy in his heart, but he didn't show it, and replied: "What you said is indeed somewhat reasonable. It's just that Cao Apu is very cunning, and if he sends ordinary people there, I'm afraid he will suffer a lot of trouble. β
When Xu You heard this, he immediately understood what Yuan Shao meant, and immediately smiled: "The lord has forgotten that the lord had a lot of friendship with me and Cao Apu back then. If the Lord is trustworthy, he is willing to go on a journey. β
"Haha, Ziyuan is far away, I have peace of mind, then I will wait for your good news!" Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he was obedient, but soon Yuan Shao's face sank, and he suddenly said: "There is another thing, which also bothers me!" β
Xu You seemed to be able to see through Yuan Shao's thoughts, and as soon as Yuan Shao's voice fell, he immediately replied: "What worries the lord is the safety of the Kamikaze? β
Yuan Shao listened, sighed, and said: "Although Yan Liang was defeated and captured this time, he is my left and right arm after all. He has a strong temper, and it is impossible for him to surrender to Ma Xi. I'm afraid that Ma Xi will be angry and kill him! β
"The lord is benevolent and righteous, and it is really a blessing for him to be so favored by the lord of the gods. I think it's better to let Cao Cao summon the Kamikaze Hou to Luoyang in the name of His Majesty, and then I will return with the Kamikaze Hou, so good? Xu You said with a smile. When Yuan Shao heard this, he was overjoyed, and said hurriedly: "Ziyuan really has a way to bring Yan Liang back to Hebei?" β
"You don't dare to assert without permission, do your best, and just hope to live up to the high expectations of the lord." Xu Yu said in shock. Yuan Shao's attitude towards Xu Yu changed greatly, and he said especially affectionately: "That qiΔ depends on Ziyuan you." When it is done, I will be rewarded! β
When Xu Yu heard this, he was also satisfied and gave up his life.
As a result, as the wars in various parts of Hebei ended, the world was temporarily calmed down. A few days later, in Luoyang Sikong Mansion. Cao Cao smiled, but Cao Hong was full of anger and unwillingness, and shouted: "This Yuan was really incompetent, and he couldn't even attack a small Qingzhou with nearly 100,000 troops, but he also lost the Bohai Sea!" β
"Haha, Zilian, admit defeat in betting. You can't get drunk again in a year! Otherwise, according to the gambling contract, the head you put on your neck is mine! Cao Cao was obedient, laughed a few times, and said with a short beard in his hand.
"Hey! Whatever the lord says, it is what it is! Cao Hong shook his head angrily. It turned out that earlier, Cao Cao and Cao Hong happened to be bored drinking in the garden, when someone came to report about the Qingzhou war. When Cao Cao heard this, he asserted early that Yuan Shao's Hebei army would undoubtedly be defeated this time, and not only Qingzhou might fall into the hands of others, but even his own territory might not be able to be protected. Cao Hong listened to it at the time, where could he believe it. Cao Cao didn't say what it was, so he made a bet with Cao Hong.
Of course, now that the results are out, it proves that Cao Cao's calculations are correct. Although Cao Hong was hard-mouthed, he admired Cao Cao very much in his heart.
At this time, Xun You, who had a cold and solemn face, suddenly stood up and arched his hand: "The lord has now that Ma Xi has obtained Qingzhou, he has become a couch tiger, and the power of the Ma family in Yongzhou and Liang should not be underestimated. β
Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully. Seeing this, Xun Yu frowned, then stood up and said in a condensed voice: "Lord, our army has just ended the war in Huainan, and in recent years, there has been a locust plague in the south, the people have no food, and countless people have died of starvation. The so-called external must first be at home, and the subordinates thought that the governance of the community was not only about marching and fighting, but also about internal affairs and people's livelihood. Otherwise, once the people lose their support, it will be difficult for the people to make a living, and they will naturally commit trouble everywhere, and there will be no day of stability in the world. Therefore, His Majesty believes that at present, due to recuperation, the whole country should first make every effort to deal with the locust plague, so that the people of the Central Plains can tide over this difficulty, and then consider military affairs. β
As soon as Xun Yu's words came out, he won the approval of many scholars. As for Xun You's Jianyi, he was supported by many military attachΓ©s, and the two factions quarreled, annoying Cao Cao with one head and two big.
"Enough~!!" Suddenly, Cao Cao slapped the case, and his eyes were shining, and everyone was afraid, and immediately closed their mouths.
However, Cao Cao changed his face faster than he changed his book, and he quickly laughed and said, "I have a way, which can not only solve the border defense, but also solve the food shortage." β
"I don't know what the lord has planned, please tell the ministers to listen!" When Xun Yu heard this, he couldn't help but feel shocked, and hurriedly asked. Cao Cao deliberately groaned silently, and Xun Yu was so anxious that his brows jumped. Cao Cao laughed when he saw it, and seeing that Xun Yu's handsome face was getting redder and redder, he said: "That's the case, anyway, now the Ma family doesn't dare to send troops lightly, why don't you let the soldiers who go to the town guard to grow grain." In this way, when the harvest comes, won't it be right to solve the problem of food shortage? This is the so-called Cao's Tuntian plan! β
As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, Xun Yu and Xun Yu couldn't help but look at each other, and then applauded in unison, and then looked at Cao Cao's eyes, full of admiration.
I have to say that Cao Cao is not only majestic and strategic, but also has the talent of the heavens and latitudes, which is rare throughout the ancient and modern times. Xun's uncle and nephew had secretly discussed that with the current situation developing, in the future, nine times out of ten in the world will be in the hands of Cao Cao. In this regard, the two not only agree very much, but also are full of confidence.
But it was said that it was just when Cao Cao was preparing for Tuntian. One day, Xu You came to Sikong Mansion with a retinue and valuable gifts.
"Hahaha~~!! Cao saw the magpie coiled on the beam this morning, and knew that something good must have happened. Sure enough, there is a distinguished guest visiting this time!! Ziyuan, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time, and today I will definitely get drunk and not return~!! Seeing Cao Cao walking out quickly accompanied by a cadre of civil and military personnel, I saw Cao Cao's clothes draped casually, his chest was half exposed, his face was still a little ruddy, and his body exuded the smell of wine.
Xu You saw Cao Cao, smiled faintly, and said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, but your unruly demeanor is still the same, and then you look at Ah Pu's red face, it seems that life can be very moist." β
