Xun Yu listened to what Liu Yi said, and he couldn't help but fall into a deep thought.

After a long time, he said slowly: "Lord, it seems that this time, Cao Cao must have a plan, or I am afraid that this is also an opportunity for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to secretly join forces against us." We really had to guard against it. ”

"Well, I naturally guessed that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao might join forces, and they must also have a plan, and their plan is probably a bit big." Liu Yi said, and casually handed the secret map presented by Hua Xin to Xun Yu for a look, and said: "You see, Hua Xin will definitely not send this secret to us for no reason, what is the purpose of him doing this?" ”

"Lord, you discussed with Yan Liang and other generals before, and you have already speculated that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao secretly joined forces, probably to target you. For this point, Xun believes that it is really possible. Xun Yu said thoughtfully: "Now, Xun can make a detailed scrutiny of the current situation of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and their ideas. ”

"Oh? Please give me advice. Liu Yi humbly said to Xun Yu.

For Liu Yi, Xun Yu was able to come to see him at this time, it would definitely not be untargeted, like him, a super strategist with an open mind, his insight and grasp of the battle situation are definitely much stronger than Liu Yi. At least, now that Liu Yi has rarely been able to take advantage of this aspect of his foresight, Xun Yu and other super strategists have a particularly important view of the current situation.

"My lord, this, we have to distinguish their current situation one by one. First of all, let's talk about Yuan Shao first. Xun Yu bent his finger and said: "Yuan Shao is already a grasshopper after the autumn. It won't be long to toss. However, the camel of the lean horse is bigger than the horse, and he still has an army of hundreds of thousands. And the biggest difference between him and Liu Biao. is that Yuan Shao's background is too prominent, he was born in the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third prince, and their children of the Yuan family have a kind of arrogance, or superiority, that ordinary people do not have. This sense of superiority caused them to be the children of the Yuan family. must not be willing to succumb to the character of people. Sometimes, knowing that it is death, they are afraid and will not give in. Be just like. Yuan Kui, the original lieutenant, even if the entire Yuan family was killed by Dong Zhuo, his Yuan family did not give in to Dong Zhuo, and the same was true for straw bags such as Yuan Shu. I'd rather kill myself. I don't want to be a prisoner. Now that it is Yuan Shao's turn, he will definitely not give in lightly. ”

"If you say this, Liu has already thought about it and thinks it is true." Lewis nodded in agreement.

Yuan Shao was unwilling to give in, and he still had dying capital in his hands, and it coincided with the fall of Liu Biao in Jingzhou. It was a wake-up call for him, so it was. In the face of the oppression of our New Han Army's step-by-step threats. Yuan Shao is very likely to have fallen into a state of madness. Even if he thinks in his heart that he is not the enemy of our New Han Army, there will inevitably be a final madness. As for how crazy it is, we don't know. However, judging from the fact that he sent Guo Tu to meet Cao Cao and received Cao Cao's warm reception, Yuan Shao must have reached some kind of agreement with Cao Cao now, and it is some kind of agreement against our new Han Dynasty. Xun Yu said with his head in the head.

"Let's talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is now, although he is second only to our New Han Dynasty, he is one of the best in the Han Dynasty. However, judging from the fact that he lost the battle for Jingzhou with our New Han Dynasty, Cao Cao must have clearly realized that under the current situation, he Cao Cao is not the opponent of our New Han Dynasty, even if he fights with us now, it may bring great trouble to our New Han Dynasty, but it must be their Cao Cao who will be destroyed in the end. Under such circumstances, Cao Cao relented, temporarily signed a non-aggression pact with us, and seemed to be generous in his verbal promise not to interfere with our attack on Yuan Shao and the seizure of Jizhou. In fact, it's not that Cao Cao doesn't want to interfere with us, but that he can't do anything, or that under the current circumstances, he doesn't dare to raise Jizhou, because that would directly face the army of our New Han Army. At the same time, even if Cao Cao captures Jizhou, he will always be at peace, and there is no way to stop our New Han Army from threatening him Cao Cao. In this way, he had no choice but to lay out the boundary line against our New Han Army from the Yellow River. In this way, he Cao Cao may steal a period of opportunity for peaceful and tranquil development. In other words, under normal circumstances, Cao Cao would definitely not have a confrontation with our new Han Dynasty. Even if we do something relatively excessive to him Cao Cao, Cao Cao will definitely endure it for a while. Judging from the fact that we are now sending troops to the Tiger Prison Pass to seize Cao Cao's Yellow River crossing, Cao Cao will definitely not really have a war with us, at most, he is not to be outdone, and on the surface, he wants to fight for face. ”

"Oh? If you say that, doesn't that mean that Cao Cao is just playing tricks now? Mobilizing military horses is just to fight for face, so as to show that he Cao Cao is not afraid of our new Han Dynasty? Liu Yi asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, no." Xun Yu shook his head with a smile and said: "Just because Cao Cao feels in his heart that he is not the enemy of our New Han Army now, signing a non-aggression pact with us is just Cao Cao's strategy to delay the army." After all, Cao Cao is now asking himself if he is not the enemy of our New Han Army, so even if he stays for another two or three years, he Cao Cao will dare to say that he can defeat our New Han Dynasty? Now, he is concentrating on development, and in three years, he will definitely catch up with and surpass our New Han Dynasty? Obviously, this is impossible, he Cao Cao is developing, isn't our New Han Dynasty developing? In this way, even if we fight Cao Cao again many years later, we will be able to win it in a grand manner. Cao Cao is a smart man, and he can naturally see this. ”

"Then ......"

"If, there is already a condition that Cao Cao can defeat us, or even have a chance that Cao Cao can destroy our New Han Dynasty, then I think Cao Cao will definitely not think about any non-aggression pact, let alone say that he will wait until a few years later to fight to the death with our New Han Dynasty. In the same way, if we have a chance to destroy Cao Cao in one fell swoop now, I think we will not miss the opportunity, and we will definitely not give Yuan Shao a chance to breathe like we are crusading against Yuan Shao now. Xun Yu said this. After a pause, he said: "To sum up, Xun can almost conclude now that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao." There must be a shocking conspiracy, and there must be some certainty that we can defeat our New Han Army, and even destroy our New Han Dynasty in one fell swoop. Or, Xun came in a hurry. The reason why the lord was persuaded to return to Luoyang was that Xun was worried. Will Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have a conspiracy that can kill the lord? We have to guard against it. ”

When Xun Yu said this, he said to Liu Yi seriously: "Lord, in fact, we can see more or less that the lord has great ambitions. Moreover. It seems that he is not too enthusiastic about the internal war of the Han Dynasty, at least, the lord has the people in his heart and knows that the civil war between our Han Dynasty will suffer in the end, so the lord looks at the world. For this reason, I am also anxious to unify the Han River and the mountains as much as possible. So. It is possible that the Lord and the Princess, as we said before, the world is very big, and our vision should not be limited to the Han, but should face the world. Xun also believes that the lord is now more hopeful, I am afraid that what he hopes more is to send an army to the Wa Kingdom and destroy the Wa people who exterminated humanity. Also, troops will go out to the Far East in the desert, or send troops to the South Seas. These, my lord, you have already told us on the map how and how big this world is. However, my lord, we have to eat one bite at a time, we can't rush it, as long as we develop steadily, sooner or later we can unify the Han Dynasty, now, even if we withdraw our troops back to the Tiger Prison Pass, this is not much change for the shape of the entire Han Dynasty, and the initiative is also in our hands. Yuan Shao, he can't jump for a few days. We only beg that the lord can't have anything, and that our new Han Dynasty can't mess up itself. ”

"Well......" After Liu Yi heard this, he nodded unnaturally, and then smiled: "Hehe, Wen Ruo, are you worried that I Liu Yi will lose face and send troops from the Tiger Prison Pass, and I will not withdraw the army if I have no achievements, right?" You are too worried, how can I, Liu Yi, be that kind of narrow-minded person? How could it be the kind of person who can't do it? ”

"Hehe, that's hard to say. My lord, how many risks have you taken since you made your fortune? There are many things that we think are unlikely to succeed, but are you not bent on taking risks, my lord? In the past, we didn't know why we had so much faith in the Lord. Many things are a little scary when I think about them now. Now, our New Han Dynasty has a great business, and there is no need for us to take risks for some things that we are not sure of. What's more, there is a saying, Xun doesn't know whether to tell the lord or not. ”

"Oh? If you have something to say, will I, Liu Yi, still blame you? Liu Yi waved his hand.

"Today is different from the past, the more our New Han Dynasty develops and grows, the more we feel that you are indispensable. Without your lord leading the development of our new Han Dynasty, our entire court will inevitably fall into a panic. Therefore, we hope that the lord can always sit in the imperial court, and leave the affairs of commanding the army to the generals. You must know that the generals, their ability to lead the army to fight, I believe that they are by no means under the lord, if the lord often leads the army to fight in person, this will steal the limelight of the generals. Is this the lord's distrust of the generals? Xun Yu said casually: "Also, my lord, why didn't you bring your wife with you on this expedition?" In the tradition of our New Han Dynasty. Every time the lord goes on an expedition, there will be no shortage of women around him. I didn't bring my wife this time, I don't know why, we all feel unsteady in our hearts, a little abnormal. ”

"Uh...... What kind of reason is this? Liu Yi couldn't help but be a little speechless when he heard Xun Yu say this.

"Hehe, anyway, lord, please ask your class teacher to return to the dynasty and destroy Yuan Shao, just leave it to us." Xun Yu laughed and persuaded.

"Hmm......" Liu Yi nodded, and was about to promise Xun Yu to withdraw the army, but at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "No!" ”

"Huh? Lord, you still don't withdraw your troops? Now that we have an army of 200,000 or so here, what can we do? Could it be that the lord really wants to take the risk of waving his army across the river? When Xun Yu heard this, he asked in surprise.

"No, no, I mean, since Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have a conspiracy against us, if we don't give them some color, won't it make them think that we are afraid of them?" Liu Yi said thoughtfully: "In the end, what Wen Ruo told me now is speculation, what conspiracy Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have, we really don't know, even if Wen Ruo doesn't want to know, what conspiracy do they have?" ”

"Well, my lord, what do we care about them so much? Anyway, as long as we withdraw our troops and go back, no matter how big their conspiracy is, they won't be able to help us. Xun Yu said.

"No, it's not like that, it's a potential! I, Liu Yi, if I want to unify the Han Dynasty, I must take advantage of this momentum. No matter how big or small, you can't be convinced, no matter what conspiracy Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have, I think, we must engage in battle, thwart their conspiracy, and thus gain this momentum! Liu Yi's eyes flashed and said, "I'll speculate in the direction of our worst." ”

Liu Yi carried his hands on his back, walked back and forth in the tent, pondered for a moment, and said to Xun Yu: "I think that Hua Xin gave me the secret landing map of the Yellow River, probably to lure us to cross the river from there." And in our current situation, we can only cross one or two thousand people at a time. I believe Hua Xin is also clear about this, if it is a conspiracy between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, how can it be just to plot our one or two thousand soldiers of the New Han Army? In this way, it can be inferred that the person they are plotting must be me Liu Yi himself. In other words, if Liu Yi personally led people to force his way across the Yellow River and landed at the ferry provided by Hua Xin, they might have a plan to reach the place where Liu Yi died. In this way, it can be liked, if I, Liu Yishun, were killed by them, then Cao Cao or Yuan Shao would suddenly go to me, the person who frightened them the most. And our New Han Dynasty, if it is really as you said, the current New Han Dynasty is becoming more and more inseparable from me Liu Yi. So, will our new Han Dynasty mess itself up? At this time, is it possible for Cao Cao to transfer 300,000 of his most elite military horses to take advantage of the chaos of our New Han Dynasty to break our 200,000 troops here in one fell swoop, and then take advantage of the situation to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, break through the pass, and take Luoyang directly. ”

"When the time comes......," Xun Yu continued, "If the 200,000 troops led by the lord now are really destroyed by Cao Cao's army, and they break through the Tiger Prison Pass." Then, Luoyang, our imperial court, really no longer has the ability to block the attack of Cao Cao's army. You must know that now our army is divided into pieces in various battlefields, Jizhou, Shangdang, Xiliang, Jingzhou, Jiangdong, etc. If even Luoyang was broken by Cao Cao, the New Han army on various battlefields could not reach the whip, and they lost the orders of the lord, they would fall into a situation where they fought separately and could not echo each other. Sooner or later, he will be destroyed by Cao Cao......"

"Forehead......" Xun Yu said to himself, and he couldn't help wiping a cold sweat himself. (To be continued......)
