Chapter Seventy-Six: Connecting the Heroes
Lu Su expressed the doubts in his heart, but saw Xun Yu and smiled: "Zijing doesn't know, Cao Cao is not an ordinary person, this person has great ambitions and extraordinary vision, we can think of the Son of Heaven to order not to obey, he may not be unexpected, so when he hears that this is a good opportunity to welcome back the Son of Heaven, he will definitely choose to cooperate with us without hesitation, so that he can not only get benefits, but also leave a loyal praise, such a good thing will never give up."

"I see, Brother Gongda praised Cao Cao so much, could it be because Uncle Ling Xun Wenruo was in his army?"
"Hehe, I won't hide it from you, the reason why you know Cao Gong is that although he has a certain relationship with his uncle, it is not big, and he has lived in seclusion in Xiangyang in the past few years, and he has indeed studied the heroes of the world."
In fact, this is what Lu Su said, Xun You will not mind, because Lu Su is bold, and at the same time he and Xun You are also familiar at first sight, otherwise, if someone unfamiliar talks like this, it will definitely be considered as having ulterior motives.
After all, these two uncles and nephews belong to different camps, and now Xun You admires his uncle's master like this, plus being questioned like this, how can he not arouse the minds of others?
"Hehe, since Gongda said so, it seems that Cao Cao will definitely agree, this is great, Cao Cao's command can be regarded as full of talents, strong soldiers and strong horses, with his participation, this time we will be more sure to defeat the four thieves."
When Lu Su heard Xun You's words, he was immediately impressed, and said with a smile.
Xun You smiled faintly, and then said: "In fact, even so, if we have a hard fight with the four thieves, the battle situation may not be so optimistic, after all, the Xiliang cavalry is too strong, so I think we should further divide and disintegrate from it, and contact the loyal and righteous people in Chang'an City to think that it should be internally responding, and when the time comes, we should join forces with the outside and break the thieves together, and even if it is the four thieves, we should be treated differently, not the same standard, although Zhang Ji is also one of the four thieves, but now he is stationed in Hongnong, not in Chang'an, When the time comes, we can first order someone to block its reinforcements, and then take the opportunity to persuade them to surrender. ”
"Okay, Gongda's words are very good, in this case, I will send someone to infiltrate Chang'an today, so that he can secretly contact the loyal people in the DPRK and China, and when our army fights, we should unite with the outside and break the thieves together, by the way, Fengxiao, do you have anything else to add?"
Liu He looked at Guo Jia again, and then asked.
I saw Guo Jia smile and say, "Do you remember how we defeated the thieves who attacked Yingchuan?" ”
Liu He was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise: "You mean that we have to do a divisive plan?" ”
I saw Guo Jia nodded, and then sighed: "In fact, the four thieves seem to be intimate, but in fact they are inseparable, but due to external environmental reasons, they have to cooperate closely, I believe that in another three or four years, without how much effort we have, there will be infighting between each other, but I know that the lord is merciful and can't bear the suffering of the people in Guanzhong, and at the same time, he is loyal and can't bear the trouble of the Son of Heaven, so he wants to contact the heroes and send troops to the king, but even so, the four thieves are not without suspicion, We just need to spread rumors like this, believing that the four thieves will definitely guard against each other, and then it only takes an opportunity for them to kill each other! ”
As soon as Guo Jia said this, everyone applauded and praised the clever plan.
Liu He asked a few more words, and saw that no one needed to add anything, so he stood up and said loudly: "Today, all the princes have said very well, since this is the case, then we will immediately take action, I will first write a letter, send envoys to Ma Teng, Liu Biao, and Cao Cao respectively, establish an alliance with them, and make an appointment to send troops to Chang'an, Ma Teng, I will send Wang Zhongxuan to go, he came from Guanzhong, he is more familiar with there, as for Cao Cao, please trouble Gongda to go, as for Liu Biao, or Zhouping, let's go, However, the candidate who infiltrates Chang'an needs to be considered, after all, it is relatively dangerous there, and I need a bold and careful person who can speak well. ”
At this time, I heard Lu Fan say: "Lord, let Fan go on this matter, Fan will definitely visit the loyal and upright people carefully after he gets there, and even if he is not a loyal and upright person, as long as he is willing to oppose Li Dao and Guo Yan, Fan will also contact him." ”
Lu Fan is a beautiful man, with outstanding wisdom, bold and careful, coupled with unique divination skills, it is indeed very suitable for this task, but Liu He also has some concerns, and said hesitantly: "But I still need Ziheng to help me guard Yingchuan......"
I saw Lu Fan laugh and said: "This matter is not difficult, because this time Cao Cao will definitely attack Chang'an with all his strength, and he has no energy to deal with Yingchuan, so what we have to guard against is just a Yuan Shu, Fan thinks that Lu Zijing is enough to defend Yingchuan, and even this is a bit overkill for Zijing." ”
Liu He naturally knew that Lu Su was one of the four major governors of Wu later, and his ability to command troops would certainly not be bad, coupled with an intelligence of more than 90, even the top strategists in Yuan Shu's army were definitely not opponents, so he immediately smiled and said: "Zijing's talent, I naturally know that since this is the case, then I will appoint Lu Zijing to temporarily take the post of Yingchuan County Guard, lead the army to guard Yingchuan, and transfer Yu Wenze and Zhou Cang, Li Wenda and other generals to gather in Wancheng, and in two months at most, lead the army out of Wuguan and go to Chang'an!" ”
After that, Liu He trained during the day, dealt with internal affairs, read books and practiced martial arts at night, and quietly waited for the results.
The first to get a response was naturally Liu Biao, after all, in terms of geographical location, Xiangyang is still relatively close, and the transportation is convenient, plus Liu Biao and Liu He have already made an alliance, so the first response is not very surprising.
And the result of the response was indeed as Xun You expected, Liu Biao used the excuse that there were still rogues in Jingzhou, the place was uneasy, and he couldn't send too many troops, so he sent the general Wen Ping to lead 10,000 troops to come, completely at the disposal of Liu He, and also sent 50,000 grains and grass.
Cao Cao first expressed his loyalty impassionedly, and then persuaded the civil and military forces in public, first let go of the hatred with Tao Qian, and ordered the troops to set off from Chenliu, pass through Luoyang, take Hangu Pass, enter Hongnong, which was guarded by Zhangji, and lead a large army to attack Chang'an.
In fact, Cao Cao later recruited his ally Yuan Shao to attack Chang'an together, but Yuan Shao was not much interested in fighting fiercely with the Montenegrin army.
In addition to Yuan Shao, Liu He also sent someone to invite Zhang Yang, who was stationed in Hanoi, and asked him to send troops together to fight the national thieves, but Zhang Yang was bent on self-protection and decisively rejected this suggestion.
Ma Teng happily agreed, and the two sides agreed that after Liu He's army set off, Ma Teng's army would set off from Yixian County and attack Chang'an together.
"There are still two months, and after two months, I, Liu He, will be an upright and upright teacher, attack the rebels, occupy Guanzhong, not only complete the edict of the Son of Heaven, but also earn enough fame for myself, and at the same time obtain Chang'an, and save the people of Guanzhong from the flames of war, it can really be said to kill four birds with one stone, haha, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou thieves, just use your head to be the stepping stone for me Liu He to establish his meritorious deeds!" After getting the news, Liu He was proud in his heart and said with high spirits.
