As Su You expected, Yuan Junzhang's envoy to Hebei this time was indeed for the purpose of forming an alliance, and he was in a depressed mood when he set off.

At that time, Li Yuanbing was divided into three ways and had entered Guanzhong, while Liu Wuzhou was still stubbornly trying to take Jinyang.

Yuan Junzhang once advised Liu Wuzhou, "The road south of Jinyang is narrow and dangerous, if our army goes deep into Hedong alone, without the support of a large army behind, once the attack is blocked, what way can we return?" In the view of the humble position, we should ally with the Turks in the north and make peace with Li Tang in the south; Then sit back and wait for the Central Plains to compete for the winner and lose, and then lift the ground and descend, there is no shortage of great wealth! ”

Liu Wuzhou didn't know that Su You was reinforcing Luo Yi at this time, and he never took other heroes in the world in his eyes, so he was unwilling to take Yuan Junzhang's suggestion; Then he began to further plan for the southward expansion, and because he wanted his ears to be cleaner, he sent Yuan Junzhang to Hebei.

Before Yuan Junzhang entered Hebei, the combined forces of Dou Jiande and Wei Dao'er were attacking Youzhou with all their might.

At that time, Yuan Junzhang would never have thought that in just half a month, Dou Jiande's army coming north would be defeated and retreated, and the master of Hebei became Su You.

For Liu Wuzhou, it didn't matter who Hebei fell into, after all, Yuan Junzhang came for peace; If you get some support unexpectedly with your incorruptible tongue, it is obviously an unexpected gain.

To Yuan Junzhang's surprise, after he got on Su You's warship, he was dried aside by Su You's soldiers; Not to mention letting him see Su You, he couldn't even see his own guards.

After waiting anxiously for a day, Yuan Junzhang was pleased to hear the news that Su You was going to approach him.

Yuan Junzhang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after solemnly tidying up his appearance, he boarded the flagship of the fleet with Su You's personal guards.

When following the guards into the spacious living room of the ship, Yuan Junzhang finally saw Su Youlai, whom Liu Wuzhou and Wei Chigong often talked about, and at this time he was sitting in the hall with his wife Lai Yanbei, raising his head and looking at the door with a smile.

There was only one man and one woman in the hall, Yuan Junzhang naturally did not admit his mistake, and immediately bowed and saluted, "In Xia Yuan Junzhang, I have seen General Su." ”

After Liu Wuzhou was canonized as Dingyang Khan by Shibi Khan, he also added officials to his subordinates. Business. General Hospital. Rational level, but what he saw Su You at the moment was the etiquette of the rivers and lakes.

In Yuan Junzhang's heart at this time, he may be thinking that everyone came out to rebel, and no one is much more noble than others.

Su You didn't know what Yuan Junzhang was thinking, but he was still full of enthusiasm for his arrival, "It turned out to be Mr. Yuan, I was waiting for you, please take a seat."

Yuan Junzhang sat down without humility or arrogance, Su You ordered someone to serve tea, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Yuan, I don't know how Brother Wu Zhou is doing recently?"

Su You and Liu Wuzhou were both subordinates of Yang Yu before, although the relationship between the two was not very good, they also had the feeling of colleagues, and more importantly, Liu Wuzhou was also a member of Su You's polo team; Even though Su You was a little dissatisfied with Liu Wuzhou's devotion to the Turks, he didn't show it at all.

"My brother-in-law has always been well, and I came here to say hello to the general on behalf of my brother-in-law, and he also specially prepared some gifts for the general, and asked the general to smile." Yuan Junzhang replied to Su You, and took out a gift slip from his cuff and handed it to Su You.

At Su You's suggestion, the guard who poured tea for Yuan Junzhang just now took the gift list and passed it to him.

Su You glanced at Yuan Junzhang's gift list, and immediately said to Yuan Junzhang with a smile, "Before entering Hebei, Wu Zhou didn't expect me to seize Hebei, right?" ”

"This" Yuan Junzhang suddenly became embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

The gift given to Su You now was originally intended to be given to Dou Jiande, but can Su You and Dou Jiande have the same hobbies? Dou Jiande is just a squire, while Su You was a famous cultural person in the Great Sui ten years ago

"I think back then, I also had a friendship with Brother Wu Zhou, we served under the account of King Qi, but I didn't expect that time was going by, and now King Qi is actually lost in the hands of Yu Wenhua, and the past is really unbearable." Su You ignored Yuan Junzhang's embarrassment, and immediately fell into endless memories.

Faced with Su You's coy attitude, Yuan Junzhang immediately said cheekily, "General Su, in fact, I came here for other purposes besides greeting the general for my brother-in-law. ”

Su You knew that the drama was coming, but he still smiled faintly and said, "Oh? Brother Wu Zhou and I are not outsiders, Mr. Yuan has something to say. ”

"I heard that the general broke the royal capital of Goryeo with 10,000 people, and I was really impressed by it; After entering Hebei, I heard that the general's addition made the Youzhou army defeat into victory, and then I saw with my own eyes that the general's army swept through Hebei in less than half a month" Yuan Junzhang immediately patted his horse, and carefully observed Su You's face.

Su You shook his head and said modestly, "It took us more than ten days to reach the river, it's nothing, it's still far from sweeping Hebei." ”

Yuan Junzhang also shook his head, and said with an excuse, "The general is too modest, it is only a matter of time before he sweeps Hebei, and when the time comes, the general will break the tile gang, and it will not be difficult to enter the Eastern Capital."

Su You smiled and didn't say anything, so Yuan Junzhang plucked up the courage to ask again, "Has the general ever thought about sending troops to Guanzhong?" ”

Su You showed a hint of surprise on his face, and immediately said, "Send troops to Guanzhong?" Thinking a little far, the reason why I am currently being beaten all the way from being beaten to the south is actually to clear the way, my ultimate goal is actually to kill Yu Culture and avenge my father-in-law, and now the Eastern Capital has recruited the Anwagang army, and Tang Guogong entered Guanzhong is also to quell the chaos, with him out of the horse, I will go to Guanzhong, wouldn't it be too much? ”

To Su You, who was full of nonsense, Yuan Junzhang couldn't help but sneer, "General Su is really really"

"Mr. Yuan, I don't know what you think?" Su You didn't get angry when he saw Yuan Junzhang's disdain for him, but instead made a good student and planned to listen to him.

"Yu Wenhua and killing the monarch are in the front, and Li Yuan is not unable to follow in the dust; Did the general think that after Li Yuan pacified Guan Long, he would be content to assist King Yue on behalf of the king? Will it be in peace? Yuan Junzhang looked at Su You without the slightest anger on his face, but he calmed down.

Su You asked with a confident smile, "Guangwu said it well back then, 'Vested Long, look back at Shu', Li Yuan won Hanzhong, I'm afraid he is going to go out of the Dasan Pass and enter Bashu, right?" ”

"The general is really" Yuan Junzhang was immediately choked by Su You's half-truths, and thought for a while before sorting out his thoughts, "If the biggest forces today, with Jiangnan, Hebei, and Guanzhong as the most, you are also the most likely to divide the world." ”

"Oh? Does Brother Wu Zhou know it? Su You said with a smile.

"If my brother-in-law doesn't know, how can I let me come down and form an alliance with the general?" Yuan Junzhang responded as a matter of course.

"Alliance?" Su You shook his head and smiled meaningfully.

Yuan Junzhang was quite a strategist under Liu Wuzhou, and he also knew that Su You's words implied that they were not qualified to form an alliance.

"The general suddenly rose, and it only took three months to have nearly ten counties in Liaodong, Youzhou, and Hebei, and the general's current territory is not much better than that of Wagang in its heyday, not to mention the current Li Yuan and Xiao Milling. We also know that we are not strong enough to form an alliance with the general, so we have been quite hesitant. ”

After saying these words a little arrogantly, Yuan Junzhang sighed and said, "But after listening to the general's words below, I realized that our ideas are still a little immature, if the general is just to kill Yu Wenhua, I am afraid that in the end, it will inevitably become a fish on the anvil of Li Yuan." ”

Su You smiled, made a teachable look and said, "Please also ask Mr. Yuan to speak clearly." ”

"The news of the recruitment of the Wagang army in the eastern capital, in fact, I only got it from the general just now, but whether it is the Wagang army occupying the eastern capital or Wang Shichong occupying the eastern capital, they will definitely attack the general of Guanzhong, don't they want them to fight to defeat both before they go all out to enter Guanzhong? The problem is that the eastern capital is too chaotic now, and there is no strength to attack Guanzhong, when will the general wait? With Li Yuan's ability, he has both stabilized Guanzhong and occupied the land of Bashu, and then the world will be under his control, can he tolerate the general? Yuan Junzhang immediately talked eloquently.

In addition to not knowing that Wagang is his secret weapon, Yuan Junzhang's analysis is quite reasonable, and now is obviously the most suitable time to fight Li Yuan, but how can you say it?

You can't become fat in one bite.

If he has a choice, what Su You hopes most is to slowly expand his territory, and then slowly infiltrate his ideal of governing the world into his territory.

It's just that the country is beaten, it's just a change of emperor, and the people are still suffering, so the change of soup and not medicine is not what Su You wants.

Even if you only get one county a year, and then govern this county into an ideal country in your mind, this is also acceptable to Su You; He didn't want to walk far in front of the people like Yang Guang, and then enjoy the people behind him poking at his backbone and scolding his mother

The steps are too big, and it is easy to pull the egg, isn't Yang Guang a lesson from the past?

The question is, can Su You, who wants to test his ideal of governing the world, afford to wait, and can the people in dire straits afford to wait?

Since the beginning of the ninth year of the Great Cause, it has been four consecutive years of war, and tens of millions of people have died because of the war.

Although he knew that the situation was urgent, Su You still shook his head and said, "I also know that Li Yuan is currently the weakest, but Li Yuan is too far away from me, there are Dou Jiande, Wang Bo, Sun Xuanya, Yu Wenhua in front of me, and Dongdu Even if I want to beat him, I have more than enough heart and not enough strength." ”

Yuan Junzhang said in a deep voice, "The general's fleet can break through the royal capital of Goryeo, and there is no problem at all if you want to go all the way south and then go west along the river. Besides, the Eastern Capital is also like a fish in the throat for Li Yuan's army, and we can also seek an alliance with the Eastern Capital. ”

Su You was stunned, has this era really become too fast?

Liu Wuzhou thought about forming an alliance with himself, but he even thought about forming an alliance with the Eastern Capital, and the officials and thieves could really urinate in a pot?
