Chapter 268: Borrowing the topic to play, Xun Yu offers advice
Yecheng, the palace of the king of Wei.
Cao Cao, Xun Yu and Jia Xu, after reading the letter of merit and the interrogation record of Liaoxi County, the expressions on their faces were very exciting.
"Lord Wei Wang, this general of Goguryeo really doesn't know what the strength of my Great Wei is?!"
Jia Xu was very puzzled that Goguryeo dared to plunder the people of Great Wei.
There is a huge gap between Goguryeo and Great Wei in terms of population and army, and coupled with the rapid development of Great Wei as a whole in recent years, the gap between the strength of Goguryeo and Great Wei has been further widened.
"It's just a fool who has been blinded by silver!"
Cao Cao knew very well that this matter was the private behavior of those generals.
Then Cao Cao said again: "However, the strength of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry has improved very significantly, and the training method provided by Mr. Lin at the beginning is really magical, even if there is no battle, the Youzhou Iron Cavalry can still improve its own strength!" ”
Thirty Youzhou iron cavalry killed and wounded half of the 120 Goguryeo cavalry, and they themselves were unscathed, much to Cao Cao's satisfaction.
Xun Yu, who had not spoken on the side, said to Cao Cao at this time: "Lord Wei Wang, I see that this Goguryeo cavalry came to my Great Wei Liaodong County to plunder, I am afraid that it is not only greedy for money, but also for other reasons!" ”
Xun Yu had doubts in his heart after reading the letter of merit and the interrogation record, and finally figured it out at this time, so he said to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao and Jia Xu were stunned when they heard this, but both of them were also talented and quick-witted, and as soon as they heard Xun Yu's reminder, they immediately knew where the biggest problem in this matter was.
"Why did the Goguryeo people go around in such a big circle and plunder a county seat in Liaoxi County?"
Cao Cao and Jia Xu's minds contemplated this question at the same time.
At this time, Xun Yu continued to analyze the two: "Although the Goguryeo people also plundered the counties of the Great Wei before, it was all before the Great Wei unified the world. Now even if the Goguryeo people know the wealth of the Great Wei, they don't dare to rob, there must be something hidden in this! ”
After Cao Cao and Jia Xu heard Xun Yu's analysis, they suddenly became enlightened.
Yes! If you want to say that those Goguryeo soldiers who were on the border were greedy for money, they could just trade with the Xianbei people, so why bother to go to Liaoxi County to pretend to be Xianbei people and loot the county seat?
Cao Cao's heart moved, and he remembered that Cheng Yu had written from Cheng Yu before, saying that the Xianbei Kebi Energy Department had purchased a large amount of grain and salt in the mutual market.
"Humph! It seems that the Xianbei people are thieves who are not dead, and they provoked it! ”
Cao Cao sneered, and the anger in his tone was not concealed at all.
"Yes, I think so, otherwise this matter would not make sense."
Xun Yu also said again on the side.
"It seems that Kebi was unwilling to be defeated in the conspiracy of my Great Wei, and deliberately let his Xianbei merchants create contradictions between the Great Wei and Goguryeo, so that he could fish in troubled waters."
Jia Xu also expressed his judgment.
"Lord Wei Wang, the land of Goguryeo is already equivalent to the land of Great Wei, and the land that can be used for cultivation is also very vast, we have no excuse to use troops against Goguryeo before, and now is not the perfect time!"
Xun Yu knew that after Cao Cao traded with Xianbei, he was already interested in the land of Goguryeo, and directly suggested to Cao Cao at this time.
"Yes, the land occupied by Goguryeo is indeed very good, and this king has always had the idea of completely taking Goguryeo into his pocket, but there are still Xianbei people in the middle......"
Cao Cao was also very moved when he heard this, but he had a headache when he thought of Xianbei people.
Now that the scale of the mutual market between the Great Wei and Xianbei is getting bigger and bigger, within five years the Great Wei will be able to completely control the food and economic lifeline of the entire Xianbei people.
If you don't take this opportunity to use troops against Goguryeo, when the king of Dongchuan of Goguryeo comes to ask for guilt, it will no longer be good to continue to send troops to Goguryeo.
The question of Xianbei people was once again placed in front of Cao Cao and the others.
Xun Yu also knew Cao Cao's hesitation, if he sent troops to Xianbei and Goguryeo at the same time, the price paid by Great Wei would be much greater than secretly encroaching on Xianbei and then also encroaching on Goguryeo.
But if the method of secret cannibalization is still used now, it is a pity that the fat meat that is put on the mouth can only be seen and not eaten!
"Lord Wei, why don't we take this as an excuse and let Xianbei Kebi Nengbu send troops to Goguryeo?"
Xun Yu thought for a moment, and then suggested to Cao Cao again.
"Let the Xianbei people fight Goguryeo?"
"Not bad!"
"If Wen Ruo has any clever plan, come quickly!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately became very interested in Xun Yu's strategy.
"Lord Wei Wang, now when you are in the Kebi Energy Department, you are forced to be inferior to the Great Wei, so you have become honest, but there is no private action at the root of the step at present."
Xun Yu first analyzed the performance of the Kebi energy department and the root of the step.
"Therefore, to let the Kobi Neng Ministry send troops to Goguryeo, it is to make a test of him, and we can use the conditions of the mutual market to negotiate with Kobi Neng.
If Kebi can send troops to Goguryeo, it will prove that Kebi Neng has now completely recognized the reality and has no two hearts.
If Kebi can refuse to send troops to Goguryeo, it means that Kebi Neng is still thief, and he just takes this opportunity to close the mutual market with Kebi Nengbu! ”
Xun Yu said this, and the eyes of Cao Cao and Jia Xu on the side lit up at the same time.
"In addition, we can also use the mutual market to threaten Budugen, so that he can stand by and watch, and we can also promise Budugen that if he doesn't make a move, he can become a veritable Great Khan of the entire prairie!
And the Great Wei can also use the Kebi Neng Department to collude with Goguryeo, intending to get involved in the two counties of Liaodong and Liaoxi and Lelang County in the name of sending troops to them!
In this way, you can avoid fighting with the entire Xianbei, and you can also get rid of Kebineng and occupy Goguryeo!
As for Budugen, even if he becomes the Great Khan of the Grassland, there will be a Youzhou Iron Cavalry deterrence outside and mutual trade control inside, and there will be no storms! ”
Next, Xun Yu finished the whole plan in one go.
"Good! If this plan is interlocking, whether it is Kebineng or Goguryeo, they can't escape from the palm of my Great Wei this time, hahaha! ”
Cao Cao agreed with Xun Yu's strategy and couldn't help laughing.
Jia Xu on the side also praised Xun Yu repeatedly: "If Wen Ruo's plan is successful, it will completely eat Xianbei and Goguryeo in one fell swoop, and the territory of my Great Wei will grow in the land of Sanzhou!"
Wen He really admires it, good strategy, hahaha! ”
Xun Yu's praise and praise for Cao Cao and Jia Xu were all accepted, and after taking a sip of the teacup, he didn't say anything more.
"Lord Wei Wang, who should you send to negotiate with Kebi?"
Jia Xu couldn't wait to start implementing Xun Yu's strategy, so he asked Cao Cao directly.
"Well, let's send Dezu there!"
When Jia Xu and Xun Yu heard that Cao Cao was going to send Yang Xiu out of the horse, they immediately nodded in agreement.
