"I said... Boss! The brothers are waiting for you to make up your mind! Oops! Don't rob me of anything to eat! Li Yu watched Boss Cao snatch meat from his bowl and eat it dissatisfied, but he is the boss who pays you a salary, and you have to endure dissatisfaction!

"Cut! ——, aren't you a counselor? You should think about it, and ask me what I am doing. Cao Cao pushed irresponsibly, he originally intended to go to Yangzhou, Li Yu told him that the road was far away, and the soldiers and horses in their hands were counted with more than 3,000 remnants of the collected army, more than 5,000 people of the Xiliang army who surrendered, more than 2,000 people trained by Chen Liunei and Li Dian, a total of more than 10,000 people!

And these soldiers and horses are mostly cavalry, the terrain of Yangzhou is not suitable for the cavalry arrangement, once the enemy encounters, this is to use their own shortcomings and other people's strengths to collide, then the result can be better? Besides, the climate in the south will definitely not be able to stand these northerners if they go, what should they do if there is a large-scale infection again? What to do with the escape of soldiers who can't stand the climate there?

There are too many disadvantages, Yangzhou is not a good place to go! Where can these more than 10,000 people beg for a living? Why run so far?

At present, Cao Cao's place of stationing is not far from Chenliu County in Fengqiu, because the princes were once used as a transit station for grain and grass in the rear, and it has long been evacuated so no one lives, and only these 8,000 people are stationed here in a city of Nuoda;

"That's right! What about that Xu Rong? It's like a mute! Li Yu asked, after Xu Rong was captured by Xu Chu, Cao Cao cherished his talent and couldn't bear to kill him, and wanted to persuade him to surrender, but his family was in Chang'an, if he betrayed Dong Feifei, the end would be the same as Brother Hua Xiong - he was wiped out! So although he was quite courteous, he didn't say a word!

"Alas! Such talents are not used by me! What a shame! Cao Cao wiped his mouth and exhaled a long breath: "I'm finally full!" Xu Rong! Let's put it on! It's not my food, and I can't buy it! ”

When Xu Rong left, Cao Cao sent him another 500 military armor to escort him, anyway, those Xiliang troops turned out to be his subordinates, Lao Cao felt that it didn't matter, but Li Yu felt distressed! 500 people said they would send it! He really doesn't know what is most important in these years?

"Forget it! You're the boss anyway! Let's talk about the way forward! Li Yu pulled back the thoughts of Cao Cao, who was watching Xu Rong;

"What did the gentleman teach me?" , Cao Cao bowed and looked very sincere; Li Yu knows a fart! He is just a foodie who eats rice, "This..." After a long time, Li Yu decided to transfer Cao Cao's question first, and then think about it slowly;

"What is the most important thing in these troubled times?" , Li Yu asked with a serious face, "The foundation of the great cause is the first in the talent!" I think I've said that! Cao Cao asked incomprehensibly;

"In fact, in the final analysis, the foundation of the great cause lies first and foremost in people! With talents, there will be talents, soldiers, grain and grass, and territory! Then I ask again: what we have now is very good! If you want a fierce general, you will have a fierce general, and you will have a soldier armor! But we have no food and grass, no place to recuperate! How can this be done? ”

"Go to Yangzhou! I have acquaintances there! Cao Cao smiled and said, "I'm kao!" ——", Li Yu wailed, this Boss Cao is not stupid! Just vetoed going to Yangzhou, why does he want to go there again! Could it be that there are more married young wives there?

"We! Now there are two paths to take! One! Take refuge in one of the princes! Be their watchdog! Two! one! Take his turf! Anyway, now the little emperor can't take care of anything! We don't have any scruples! Li Yu's temper is not very good, and he speaks very impulsively, but fortunately, he met Cao Cao, a heroic man who can endure what ordinary people can't bear, if it is Yuan Shao, he will inevitably end up with "Tian" Togawa Ke "Feng"!

"This... It's not good!···", Cao Cao looked at Li Yu hesitantly, but his little colored eyes exuded a strange light, and he was moved! He is not a man who acts as a family dog;

"I know what the boss is worried about! It's nothing more than that our Cao Group has just won a lot of reputation in the alliance between the princes and Dong, and you are afraid of losing this hard-won reputation! Fame is a good thing! I've already begun to foresee the sight coming to us from all directions! ”

"However, before you do that, you have to show your ability, those people are not like me, with a lord who doesn't even have a piece of territory!" , Li Yu looked at how aggrieved I was, and Cao Cao put his hand on his face: This scoundrel guy, this is sarcastic for me looking forward and backward!

"Then please teach me a good strategy!"

I rub! Patronized the skin, and forgot about the business! Li Yu rubbed his hands and pretended to wander back and forth: "The forces south of the Yangtze River, Sun Jian, Liu Biao, and Liu Yan will not consider them first, they are too far away and beyond the reach of the whip; Almost all the places north of the Yellow River in the north were booked by him Yuan Benchu, and they were not considered, Chang'an is a good place to go, but it's a pity! It's Dong Zhuo's..."

Hey——! , Li Yu said more and more smoothly: "Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang is dead, although the land there is fertile, but it will be threatened by Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo, our forces are still too weak, and we can't do it!" If you want to take Yuzhou, you have to fight with Yuan Highway, he now has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the scholars in Yuzhou are his solid supporters, we are not opponents! ”

"The situation in Xuzhou is basically the same as in Yuzhou! Sili and Sizhou were also good places, but that was the location of Luoyang, the capital of the Son of Heaven, although no one took the Son of Heaven seriously now, but the aftermath of the Han Dynasty for four hundred years was still deep-rooted, and we rashly occupied it and would be besieged by the people of the world! ”

"So! We have two more paths! One! Defect to Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiaohe! This man has no ambition, no ambition, and no talent, and we will take his place in two or three years! Two! Directly face the brothers Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao and Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, and take them down! Occupy Chenliu! Plot against Yanzhou! ”

Huh——! Looking at Cao Cao with a pensive face, Li Yu suddenly admired himself very much, and he also has a knack for fooling people! The most important thing is that people should believe;

"Which way shall we go, according to White?" , Cao Cao asked;

"The second! Annexation of Zhang Miao's department! Based on Chen Liu, develop in Xutu! Compared with Qingzhou, Yanzhou is much smaller, but he is the Central Plains! It is the land of four wars! Qingzhou is too close to him Yuan Benchu, and in my estimation, we will not be qualified to fight with him in five years, so let's avoid him! ”

"And now is the spring equinox period, the land is civilized, I think the Yellow Turban Army entrenched in the three states of Jing, Hebei, and Yan should make a move! Although Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, has ambition but no resourcefulness, he really thinks that he can sweep the world with some relatives of the royal family! We can rely on this opportunity to annex Yanzhou! The sage Mencius said it well! It's called—Born in sorrow and dying in peace! As long as the boss's ambition remains! We can occupy this Yanzhou land! I wonder if you have this heart? ”

All right! Li Yu is a person who has read historical texts, and he doesn't want to change history, he still has to rely on this to eat! He secretly thought to himself, the resurgence of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban should be this year, right? But don't have any moth effect...

"Live in sorrow, die in peace! All right! Since this is the case, it is time to think about how to annex Chen Liu, Zhang Miao, and Zhang Chaobu! Cao Cao put his hands behind his back and walked back and forth a few steps: "Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao are biological brothers, and the two of them are Yuan Shao's followers, it is really difficult for them to let Chen Liu out!" ”

"However, the two of them are timid and afraid of things, and when I lead the army to Chenliu, I will send a lobbyist to understand it with reason, move it with emotion, threaten it, and scare it! Maybe you can take him down! But who's going to be this lobbyist? Mr? ”

"Huh? I... Go··· Is it? ”
