Although the relationship between Cao Cao and Xun Yu ended in tragedy, this did not hide Xun Yu's position in the Cao Wei group. Later, after Liu Bang founded the Han Dynasty, he once said: "Strategizing in the strategic, winning thousands of miles away, I am not as good as the ovary (Zhang Liang); Town the country, care for the people, supply military supplies, and give food and salary, I am not as good as Xiao He; Commanding an army of millions, the battle will be won, and the attack will be defeated, I am not as good as Han Xin. ”

Among the many strategists under Cao Cao, the closest to Zhang Liang is Xun Yu, and among those internal affairs talents, the closest to Xiao He is still Xun Yu.

[Cao Cao's Zhang Liang]

There are many top strategists under Cao Cao in history, Xun Yu, Xun You and Jia Xu are typical of them, in addition to Liu Ye, Cheng Yu and so on, but Xun Yu is the most important.

When Cao Cao and Lu Bu competed for hegemony in Yanzhou, Cao Cao finally succeeded in suppressing Lu Bu, and at the same time Xuzhou Tao Qian died, Liu Bei Xinli, Cao Cao was ready to give up dealing with Lu Bu first, and instead marched to Xuzhou, and at that time Xuzhou had been slaughtered twice by Cao Cao's classmates, and he was very vigilant against it, and Lu Bu had not yet Cao Cao eliminated or chased away, at this time it was Xun Yu who dissuaded Cao Cao, otherwise Cao Cao's hard work at that time was very likely to be ruined.

Later, on the issue of welcoming the Son of Heaven, Xun Yu was the most important supporter, and Cao Cao's final choice of welcoming the Son of Heaven was inseparable from Xun Yu's strong support.

When Cao Cao faced the huge pressure of Yuan Shao, it was Xun Yu who put forward the "theory of four wins and four defeats", pacified Cao Cao, and proposed that he eliminate the troubled Lu Bu entrenched in Xuzhou as soon as possible, and recommended Zhong Xuan to sit in Guanzhong.

Before the Battle of Chibi, Xun Yu also talked about Yuan Shao's generals and main strategists, he expected that Yan Liang and Wen Chou would not be worried, and they could be destroyed in a battle, and they expected that the trial would inevitably force Xu Yu to rebel in the rear, all of which were verified by history, which was to some extent more powerful than Guo Jia's prediction of Sun Ce's death.

After that, Xun Yu urged Cao Cao not to retreat in the battle of Guandu, and after the victory, he persuaded Cao Cao not to go south but to continue to concentrate on confronting Yuan Shao.

According to the "Biography of Yu Bei", Cao Cao said this on these two points: "In the past, Yuan Shao invaded the suburbs and fought in Guandu. When the soldiers are short and the food is exhausted, they want to return the promise, the book and Yu discuss, and Yu does not listen to the ministers. Build a convenient place to live, restore the rules of discussion, and make more courtiers, easy to be foolish, so they destroy the great rebellion and take over the people. This opportunity to see victory or defeat is slightly out of the world. and Shao is dilapidated, and the ministers' grain is also exhausted, thinking that Hebei is not easy to figure out, and wants to ask Liu Biao in the south. Yu reverted to the ministers, Chen Qi's gains and losses, and the ministers used the counter-attack, and then swallowed the fierce clan, Keping four states. To the envoy retreated to the official crossing, Shao Bi drummed forward, there is the shape of overturning, there is no momentum of victory. Later, if the southern expedition is abandoned, it will be difficult to get benefits, and it will lose its original evidence. Yu's two strategies, to die for survival, to bring disaster to blessing, to seek special merits, beyond the reach of ministers. ”

After Cao Cao completely pacified the north, he asked Xun Yu's opinion on going south, and Xun Yu advised Cao Cao at this time: "Today's China is peaceful, and the southern soil is in trouble." It can show that Wan and Ye are moving lightly to hide their surprise." After that, Cao Cao took Jingzhou lightly.

After Cao Cao moved the capital to Xuchang, Xun Yu began to "hold the center in the middle", so the evaluation of "strategizing in the middle of the battle and winning thousands of miles away" is not inappropriate for Xun Yu.

【Cao Cao's Xiao He】

Historically, Xun Yu was in the Cao Wei group, and most of the time he was in the rear.

When Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou for the second time, he ordered Xun Yu, Xiahoudun and others to guard the rear, but then Chen Gong, Zhang Miao and others colluded with Lu Bu to enter Yanzhou, causing the situation in Yanzhou to almost collapse.

Then Lu Bu and Chen Gong lured Guo Gong, the assassin of Yuzhou at that time, to lead tens of thousands of troops to surround Juancheng, and it was Xun Yu who personally went out of the city and entered the enemy camp to force Guo Gong back, and finally with the help of Cheng Yu and others, the three cities of Juan, Fan and Dong'e were preserved, and Cao Cao's return was helped.

After Cao Cao moved the capital to Xuchang, Xun Yu "held the center in the middle" and made a lot of contributions to Cao Cao's rear, including the town, the people, the military needs, and the food, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is Cao Cao's Xiao He.

【Recommender's Talent】

In history, Xun Yu was also good at recommending talents, he recommended Xi Zhicai at first, and after Xi Zhicai's death, he recommended Guo Jia. In addition, he was also recommended to Cao Cao Xun You, Chen Qun, Du Qi, Sima Yi and others, all of whom were famous people at that time, among which Yan Xiang and Wei Kang later died sadly.

But if you analyze the reasons for the failure of Yan Xiang and Wei Kang, these two may not be incapable. First of all, Yan Xiang, after his Yuan Shu died, he was appointed by Cao Cao as the assassin of Yangzhou, and Yangzhou was basically occupied by Sun Ce at that time, and later Sun Ce decided to break with Cao Cao, directly implying that his subordinate Lujiang Taishou Li Shu killed Yan Xiang, in fact, no matter who did the assassination history at that time, it was the target that Sun Ce's group must remove, and Yan Xiang's death was more just bad luck.

Liangzhou assassin Shi Weikang was later surrendered Ma Chao was killed, it seems to be because of Wei Kang's incompetence, but Wei Kang actually chose to surrender because of the hard defense of the reinforcements, Wei Kang was holding on to Jicheng for more than eight months before giving up, and Cao Cao's reinforcements did not come in these eight months, Wei Kang's surrender in this situation is Wei Kang's responsibility or whose responsibility? At that time, Xiahou Yuan was in Chang'an!

Yangzhou where Yan Xiang went and Liangzhou, where Weikang is located, were places that could not be controlled by the imperial court in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and they were difficult to manage. Specifically, the failure of the two of them cannot be completely attributed to their lack of ability.

From this point of view, the failure of Yan Xiang and Wei Kang is not to mention that Xun Yu knows no one.

【Xun Ling Liuxiang】

Shi Zai Xun Yu is a great and beautiful person. Good incense, with fragrance over time. "Xiangyang Ji" contains "Xun Lingjun to the people's house, sitting for three days of incense". This allusion is also known as "Linggongxiang", "Lingjunxiang", "Xunlingxiang" and so on.

【The Name of the Hereafter】

In later generations, although Xun Yu is not famous, he is not very famous. In fact, Xun Yu can be said to be one of the founders of Cao Wei Group, and his contribution to Cao Wei is no less than Zhuge Liang's contribution to Shu Han, and his ability is not necessarily lower than Zhuge Liang's to be honest, but his treatment in later generations is completely incomparable with Zhuge Liang.

However, this is also well understood.

First of all, Xun Yu did not have much intersection with Liu Bei's Shu Han Group and Jiangdong's Sun Wu Group in history, and it can even be said that there was basically no contact, so Shu fans and Wu fans basically did not talk about Xun Yu.

And Wei fans will talk about Xun Yu, and they won't, because Wei Guo has to talk about Cao Cao first, and Cao Cao and Xun Yu ended in tragedy, and it always feels a little inappropriate to talk about Xun Yu.

In addition, in the popular novels such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in later generations, Xun Yu's role and status in film and television have actually decreased, for example, Xun Yu's excellent performance of the battle of Cao Lu Yanzhou has a very low attention in later generations, but this battle is the biggest crisis in the career of Cao Cao's princes.

Of course, it may have something to do with Xun Yu's liking for long compilations, after all, chatter is not very likable.

Summary: If Xun Yu chose not to stand on the side of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty in history, but to help Cao Cao from beginning to end, how good would it be.

Note: In the official history, Cao Cao said that Xun Yu was his own ovary, but he also talked about giving Xun Yu the same treatment as Zhang Liang.

PS: The first strategists who took refuge in Cao Cao in history were Xun Yu and Chen Gong, Xun Yu will not talk about it, Chen Gong is Cao Cao's biggest contributor to being the pastor of Yanzhou, both of them can be said to have made great contributions to Cao Wei's start, but in the end, both of them ended in tragedy with Cao Cao, which is also embarrassing.
