Chapter 20: A Big Surprise in Youzhou

Xun Chen looked at him quietly, and said with a sigh of relief: "Has Gongda forgotten the way of survival of the family?" When Yuan Benchu was defeated, I thought that Hebei was hopeless, and I said goodbye to my uncle, and now Yuan Xianyi has shown his head, and if he doesn't invest at this time, it will be too late if he is stronger. ”

Xun You frowned slightly, and said with a straight face: "Uncle Zhenjue's Yuan Xianyi can still turn the tables?" In the nephew's opinion, the Yuan family is hopeless, and the opportunity is missed, it is too difficult. ”

Xun Chen nodded and asked, "Youzhou is just Wen Ruo's opinion?" ”

"The fifth uncle said that if Yuan Xianyi can subdue Wu Huan, he will become a great weapon, otherwise it will be difficult to compete with Cao Gong."

Xun Chen snorted lightly, looked at him with a smile and said, "You don't believe what Wen Ruo said? ”

"Nephew doesn't dare!"

"Hahaha...... Gongda, Gongda, Uncle knows that you are not convinced, the most outstanding thing in our Xun family today is you and Wen Ruo, and you are even more strategic, even Zhicai and Fengxiao are willing to bow down. ”

Xun You's face was red from laughter, and he didn't even dare to say it.

Xun Chen got up seriously and said: "Do you know why Wen Ruo is called Wang Zuo's talent, the best in the world?" ”

Xun You hurriedly sat upright, only to hear Xun Chen say: "Wen Ruo is good at the overall situation, better at layout, with the world as a chessboard, often in the breeze and drizzle to let the opponent unconsciously into its covetousness, and you are good at strategy, the two sides can sort out the advantages and disadvantages in the struggle, and put people to death with one blow, so you can be a military advisor, he is Wang Zuo." ”

Later generations thought that Cao Cao's most powerful strategist was Guo Jia, but in fact, Guo Jia was in Cao Ying, and he had always been Xun You's deputy, and Cao Cao's real mastermind was Xun You.

It's just that due to personality reasons, Cao Cao and Guo Jia have similar interests, and Cao Cao will generally listen to what he says, but Xun Yu is not, Cao Cao sometimes won't listen to him.

But every time he didn't listen to him, Cao Cao was defeated, the Battle of Chibi was a typical example, Xun You opposed the expedition to Wu at that time, thinking that the time was not ripe, but Cao Cao was complacent at that time, and I didn't listen to it.

……

Not to mention the uncles and nephews of the Xun family, after Gao Gan and Yuan Shang on the other side took over the two counties, Xu Shu led Youzhou to return, and just arrived in Jicheng when he heard that Gan Ning had recovered Ancicheng.

At this time, Wei Yanwa shouted, rushed into the lobby in three steps and two steps, and shouted: "The lord can't forget me, Xingba has taken a city, and the rest should be mine." ”

Cui Jun laughed, pointed at him and said to Yuan Xi: "The lord let him go, there are two cities left and one for each person, and he can't sleep tonight." ”

The hall where he said this burst into laughter, Yuan Xi shook his head and said helplessly: "As soon as the soldiers came back, you didn't rest, and the siege was the most tragic." ”

"There's no need to rest, the sons are holding back their strength."

Seeing that Wei Yan was full of fighting spirit, Yuan Xi didn't want to splash him with cold water, nodded and said, "Okay, rest for one night, and go back tomorrow." ”

Anci City is located in Langfang in later generations, and is not owned by Yuyang County, but under the jurisdiction of Youzhou Bohai County, but next door to Yuyang County, so it is occupied by Wang Song.

The two county towns behind belong to Yuyang County, about a generation in the southwest of Beijing, the two cities are about forty miles apart, Gan Ning finished Anci, and repaired there for a few days, Wei Yan is just in time.

If he comes back two days late, I'm afraid Gan Ning has already gone to Quanzhou.

Yuan Xi looked at Xu Shu blankly at this time, wanted to ask but was embarrassed, blinked his eyes several times, and then asked cautiously: "Just Yuan Zhi and Wen Chang come back?" ”

How could Xu Shu not know what he wanted to ask, he smiled and said: "Wen Chang ran to Jicheng, who will guard Zhuo County, General Hua asked himself to stay, and when the war here is over, Wen Chang will take over." ”

Yuan Xi's eyes were suddenly full of disappointment, but he didn't dare to refute Xu Shu, so he could only mutter: "What, Zhuo County has the entire Jizhou in front of ......"

"What, the lord is not satisfied with the arrangement?"

Seeing Xu Shu's appearance as if he was smiling, Yuan Xi hurriedly shook his hand and said, "No, no, Yuan Zhi has worked hard." ”

Looking at the disbelieving eyes of others, he hurriedly changed the topic and said: "By the way, everyone Cai is back, Xi is about to ask her to write an article silently, Cai Zhonglang had a huge collection of books back then, and it is said that everyone Cai can remember a lot." ”

"Oh, that's it."

Xu Shu was surprised and exclaimed: "I have heard for a long time that Cai Zhonglang's daughter is very knowledgeable, and I have seen it now." ”

Cui Jun clapped his hands and laughed: "Yuan Zhi doesn't know more important things yet, if he knows, hehe!" ”

"What's more important?"

Xu Shu asked curiously, but Cui Jun seemed to be deliberately teasing him, turned his face to talk to Yuan Xi and ignored him, looking at the colleagues in the room, all with spring breezes on their faces, Xu Shu was anxious.

"Brother Zhou Ping, say it quickly! Believe it or not, brother, you won't be able to sleep tonight? ”

Seeing Xu Shu rolling up his sleeves, Cui Jun hurriedly dodged, and said with a smile while dodging: "If a gentleman doesn't move his mouth, whoever does it is a villain." ”

"Okay, the little brother will be a villain once today, don't hide from Brother Zhouping!"

"Okay, I said, I said it's not okay......"

These two brothers are friends, and you know from the way he plays around, he must have been like this a lot before.

How is Cui Jun Xu Shu's opponent, Lao Xu learned martial arts since he was a child, and later learned literature, otherwise it would be impossible to avenge his friends and kill his enemies.

Now he was caught, so he had to say to him: "The lord is a man of God, and he has created new paper and printing techniques, and the experiment has been successful, and it will be mass-produced soon." ”

"Paper? Typography? ”

Xu Shu, who was confused, raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Xi, paper and printing technology existed in the Han Dynasty, which is not unusual, but the quality of Cai Hou's paper is too poor, and printing is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so it is not popularized.

Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he saw Han Heng raise his hand with a smile, and a piece of paper in his hand was as white as jade, rustling under the shaking.

Xu Shu rushed over like an arrow, snatched it over, rubbed it carefully, and looked up at Yuan Xi for a long time before he said, "This is paper?" ”

"Hey, this is one of them, it's used to print books."

"What! Anything else? ”

Yuan Xi nodded and said: "There is also a kind of paper suitable for writing and painting, which Xi is named raw edge paper, which is called white paper." ”

"Good! That's great! ”

Xu Shu jumped up excitedly, how could he look like a celebrity, walking back and forth in a circle, and everyone didn't laugh at him, in fact, it was the same when they first saw the paper.

The paper of Caihou in the Han Dynasty was fragile and rough, so the important documents of the imperial court were still recorded with cloth and wooden slips, for fear that the gains outweighed the losses if they were broken.

Therefore, books are still inherited in the family, all of them are bamboo slips and wooden slips, and there are no paper books at all.

"It's not good, is this technique a secret? Don't let outsiders know that this is the foundation of Youzhou, and you can recruit talents from all over the world. ”

Xu Shu, who woke up, was the first thing that came to mind, Han Heng laughed and said: "Yuan Zhi rest assured, the production method is made by the lord himself, and now all the craftsmen will be managed by his wife, and the guards will be closely guarded, so it will not be leaked." ”
