All the advisers present also nodded their heads and said yes, people like Liu Bei who don't even have the courage to receive a reward, if anyone follows him, how can they talk about making meritorious contributions.

Only Xi Yu shook his head slightly, and said secretly in his heart: Zhuge Liang, if you hadn't defected to me, you would be happy to assist Liu Xuande!

You are very deep in the city, and you say something against your will, so naturally.

Xi Yu knew that Zhuge Liang was just perfunctory to Cao Cao...... The few chuckles he had just now were clearly sarcastic about Cao Cao.

"Not bad! Fengyi, this young talent under your command is very knowledgeable, not bad, hahaha!! ”

"In my opinion, you should have more opportunities for him to give you advice and accumulate some military exploits to help you stabilize the land of Xuzhou and Yangzhou, so that you can be entrusted with reuse in the future!"

Zhuge Liang's remarks made Cao Cao very fond of him, and he knew that Zhuge Liang had to be treated well when he first arrived in the drama account, so he really used it for him.

"Kong Ming, although you are talented, but you are still young, you need to be humble and learn more from Fengyi, he will become a great talent one day!"

"Understand ......" Hearing this, Kong Ming chuckled.

"Very good, I order you, we will meet again in the future, and you must not sit at the last seat again." Cao Cao glanced at Zhuge Liang expectantly.

At this time, Jia Xu, who was secretly eating, was stunned.

He secretly said in his heart: I'm the one sitting at the bottom of the table at this moment, right?

Soon, the war report about Shouchun spread from Yangzhou to Xuchang, and Cao Cao also kept his promise to hand over the military power to Xiyu.

But Cao Cao only gave Xuzhou 30,000 soldiers and horses for the time being, and as for the rest, he had to try to get it himself.

Before leaving, Cao Cao patted Xi Yu on the shoulder and said, "Fengyi, you also know that there are limited soldiers and horses for your brother, and now I can't give you more soldiers and horses, and I hope you will live up to the trust and resist Sun Ce for your brother." ”

"Sun Ce, this kid, known as the little overlord, took advantage of my attack on Shouchun, took the opportunity to occupy Lujiang, defeated Jiujiang, Yuzhang and other places, so that this kid has a foothold in the Jiangwu area."

"However, I heard that Sun Ce's treatment of the noble class who did not obey him was directly beheaded, which is admirable."

"I once worked with Sun Jian, Sun Ce's father, and this Sun family member is really brave and good at fighting, and has a resolute character, and he will not give up until he achieves his goal."

Cao Cao sighed deeply, "In the future, this matter of resisting the Sun family will depend on Fengyi you." ”

"But now, I don't have the heart to attack Jiangdong, do you know who I will attack next?"

After saying that, Cao Cao suddenly laughed.

Xi Yu thought for a moment and replied indifferently, "It's nothing more than Yuan Shao." ”

"Oh?"

Cao Cao was stunned unconsciously, although he knew that Xi Yu was talented, he couldn't help but be amazed in his heart, "Fengyi, how do you know what I mean in my heart?" ”

Xi Yu's face changed slightly, and he was also amazed in his heart.

He already had a hunch that the battle of Guandu might come earlier than the original history.

Perhaps, to be precise, it was not early at all.

A real battle is by no means a simple matter of several fights.

Before the war, the division made famous announcements, and then spied on various military situations, and perhaps had to create and spread many rumors.

After the food and grass are sufficient, we will organize the war armaments, show our military strength, and then gather all the potential forces that can be used by us, so that we can fight together against the enemy.

Once the battle has begun, once the city is captured, it immediately tries to expand the results of the battle, and uses rumors to widen the gap between the winners and losers, so as to gradually accumulate the cause of victory.

In the end, it is expected to win with one blow.

Now, it seems that preparations are being made for war, but it should be a few years before war is really launched.

Xi Yu remembered that the battle of Guandu, which was fought by four major battles in history with fewer victories, was actually a "battle for the ages".

The battle between the two powerful overlords of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is a contest between the two strategist groups and the fierce generals.

From the beginning of this year's pre-war planning, this epic battle has begun.

"Yes."

Xi Yu bowed to Cao Cao and said softly.

Cao Cao handed over Xuzhou and Yangzhou to Xiyu this time, not only for development, but also to give the opportunity to win the battle against Yuan Shao to Xiyu.

Cao Cao said indifferently, "Fengyi, I remember that you haven't picked up the tiger-headed gilded gun for a year, if you need to, can you still hold it?" ”

Xi Yu was stunned for a moment.

"Brother, listen to you, but ...... Intend? ”

Won't let me go to war again?

How can I resist so many?

Cao Cao already understood the meaning of Xi Yu's words, and then said with a smile, "Fengyi, you are too worried, now that I have a large number of soldiers, I have no intention of letting you charge into battle for me!" ”

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xi Yu suddenly felt a strong smell of flags.

It's started again......

Xi Yu couldn't help but think of the panic when Cao Cao was dominated by Yan Liangwen and Chou in Guandu, and now Guan Yunchang is gone......

He suddenly felt bad in his heart, and said softly, "Brother, this matter will be decided when the time comes." ”

"However, I still have a message to my brother, and I hope that the lord will take it to heart and never forget it."

"Fengyi, what are you doing so solemnly?" Seeing that Xi Yu looked so serious, Cao Cao suddenly felt that Xi Yu must have something important, and looked at Xi Yu with anticipation.

Moreover, Cao Cao suddenly remembered that the previous frustrations may have been caused by his lack of listening to Xi Yu's words.

After thinking about it, Cao Cao made up his mind in his heart that he would never despise any of Xi Yu's entrustment as much as before.

"Brother, don't make waves in your work." Xi Yu patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and said very solemnly.

"No...... Waves? ”

Cao Cao didn't know what Xi Yu meant for a while, he finally chattered, his brows tightened, and he really didn't understand the meaning of Xi Yu's words.

"Waves? What does that mean? ”

Cao Cao asked very puzzled, and for a while he only felt that he couldn't keep up with Xi Yu's thoughts.

Xi Yu looked like he was promoted, and said with a smile, "Brother slowly understands, remember, don't wave." ”

Although he didn't quite understand Xi Yu's meaning, Cao Cao still nodded, and then waved his hand to Xi Yu, "Fengyi, you go back, if I can't make a decision, I'll ask you again." ”

Xi Yu hurriedly bowed deeply, "Brother is so polite, I am really flattered, if you look for me, order someone to send me, how dare you let my brother work for himself." ”

"Hey......

Cao Cao smiled very satisfied, then turned around and stepped into the car, and gradually disappeared on the way back to Xuchang.

Xi Yu stood outside the rear camp of Xiapi City, watching Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops gradually disappear above the official road, somehow, a sense of amazement rose in his heart.

Cao Cao's attitude towards him...... Whether it is for the hegemony of the world or not, Cao Cao's kindness to him is indeed impeccable.

"My lord, my lord has gone away."

Jia Xu saw that Xi Yu seemed to be a little sad, and when he approached, he suddenly said.

"Ahem, Wenhe, can you walk with some noise in the future, okay?"

Xi Yu was already thinking a lot at the moment, and Jia Xu suddenly spoke in front of him, which really frightened Xi Yu, out of subconscious instinct, he almost smashed it with a punch.

"Uh...... My lord, I'm sorry, I'm damned. I wear cloth shoes, so it's hard to walk soundly, or if you give me a pair of boots, then I can walk with a sound......"

"What do you mean by that, you're trying to tell me that you're short of money?"

Xi Yu looked incredulous and looked at Jia Xu, "Wenhe, you have at least 120 hundreds, 20 silks, hundreds of five-baht coins a month, and a lot of cloth and gold and silver, not enough for you to buy a pair of boots?" ”

Jia Xu suddenly smiled, "Hehe, my lord, is it difficult in this world that anyone is afraid of having more money?" ”

"Look, how about that? I'll give you a plan, you give me a pair of boots? ”

Hearing this, Xi Yu smiled and pointed to the baggage camp, "Sir, please ......"

……

At this time in Jizhou, after Yuan Shao captured Youzhou, he obtained a large number of soldiers, population, and territory.

Now the net worth is even stronger.

Yecheng, within the government office.

Yuan Shao has just finished rewarding his meritorious deeds to the strategists and generals under him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Gongsun Chan has been broken, and now the north is stable!"

"I'm out of worries, what do you think you should do next?"

Yuan Shao lazily stared at the group of strategists below.

The identities of these people are not simple, they didn't want to quickly end the war against Gongsun Zhan, so as to check and balance each other and take the opportunity to suppress each other.

But they didn't expect that Yuan Shao borrowed the means of drama to suppress the dispute between the strategists with the power of thunder, and resolutely fought a quick battle against Gongsun Zhan, so as to achieve such results today.

It also has more time and energy to prepare for the south.

Among Yuan Shao's ministers, they are generally divided into four factions, Fu Zhu, Guo Tu, Tian Feng and Xu You, each of whom has a faction.

Tian Feng has a strong personality and says the same.

Xu You is sleek and shrewd, and he followed Yuan Shao very early, so he has a very good relationship with Yuan Shao.

Frustrated, the representative of the Hebei Shi clan, with a large clan behind him, represents the interests of countless scholars.

As for this Guo Tu...... Believe in the golden mean, good at self-preservation.

And among these four factions, the most fierce ones are Xu You and Tian Feng.

Both of them wished that Yuan Shao would only obey their own strategies.

Yuan Shao also likes to listen to the opinions of these two people, and then make his own strategic deployment.

However, when there were few soldiers and generals before, he could still make a decisive decision, but now that there are many people and a huge territory, Yuan Shao is starting to be a little constrained.

"Ladies and gentlemen, why are you silent?"

After saying that, Yuan Shao smiled, his eyes swept to the group of generals and strategists, and then, he set his eyes on Ju Yi.

This time he quickly defeated Gongsun Zhan, and Ju Yi was the first to take the lead. He broke the righteousness of the white horse and directly destroyed the last glimmer of hope for Gongsun Zhan.

"Ju Yi, now that I am stable in the north, what is your best plan for this next step?"

Ju Yi sat in the second place of the general's seat at the moment, he clasped his fists with both hands, and said, "Back to the lord, in the next opinion, now should you rest and recuperate, and after you have enough troops and horses, bring weapons and grain and grass, and then seek the land of Yanzhou, Yangzhou, and Xuzhou." ”

"At that time, our iron hooves will definitely be able to defeat Cao Cao with one blow!"

"That's true!"

"His grandma's!! Cao Cao relied on the Son of Heaven in his hands, and even threatened to let the lord go and surrender!! ”

"How arrogant this thief is, he must teach this thief a lesson!"

That's true! Let's fight Cao Cao in the next step, and let this thief dedicate all the territory to you, the lord!"

"That's right, when Cao Thief raised his army, it was because of the favor and help of the lord that he Cao Ah hid it today!!"

Ju Yi's words, he didn't want to provoke a war now, but he never wanted to make a group of generals suddenly boil.

These generals love nothing more than marching and fighting,

They know very well in their hearts that fighting a war can not only earn their own fame, but also use it to make meritorious contributions, so as to obtain greater military power.

Now, a group of generals under Yuan Shao, with the same thoughts as Cao Cao's clansmen, are all thinking about striving for greater merit, if they win Cao Cao's territory, the northern side can be unified.

Then go south to Jingzhou, and then defeat the land of Jiangdong, and in less than ten years, the Han family can unify the world.

If it really comes to that time, it will no longer be a simple official to worship the general, but a feudal territory!

Once the marquis is feuded, he will have his own territory, and the whole family will be able to prosper from now on.

When the generals were excited, Tian Feng suddenly said, "Attacking Cao Cao is inevitable. ”

Hearing this, the generals suddenly quieted down and looked at Tian Feng one after another.

Tian Feng is the first strategist under Yuan Shao, he is a famous man in Jizhou, and Corporal Yuan Shao invited Tian Feng to make him give advice and formulate a future development strategy.

At this time, Yuan Shao also looked at Tian Feng expectantly.

It is just throwing bricks and attracting jade, and the goal has been achieved at this moment.

He asked Ju Yi what he meant, but it was just throwing bricks and attracting jade, and the goal had been achieved at this moment.

Tian Feng said with a smile, "I know very well that the generals are eager to make meritorious contributions, but if we start a war with Cao Cao now, although we have a greater chance of winning, we will also suffer heavy losses, so it will give the northern nomadic forces such as the Xiongnu and Wuhuan in the south the opportunity to plague the border." ”

"Lord, there is still the northern clan that needs to be retracted, and there is Qingzhou Lu Bu in the south, this person's temperament is wavering, and now I don't know where to go."

"We must use some means to win over Lu Bu and let him attack Cao Cao."

Hearing this, Yuan Shao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly, "What you said is very true." ”

"However, Lu Bu and I had an old grudge, but fortunately, it is not an irreparable grudge, and now in the face of a common enemy, I believe that Lu Bu will not refuse."

Tian Feng bowed and said, "Now, the lord owns the three places of Merge Prefecture, Youzhou and Jizhou, if you win over Qingzhou, you can have the land of four states, and Youzhou is suitable for Kaihu City, and you will be able to earn a lot of money by promoting the commercial development of the land of the three states." ”

"At the same time, the lord then adopts the military and civilian tuntian system to reserve grain and grass, and the land of Jizhou is all plains, and the transportation of grain and grass is very convenient, the shortest is only three days, and the maximum is only twenty-one days."

"In this way, the strength of the soldiers and horses will be uninterrupted, and besides, our supply of food and grass will be absolutely sufficient."

Hearing this, Xu You suddenly burst into laughter, very happy, "Hahaha......"

But after a moment, Xu You stood up and smiled indifferently, "The person who bought it at the beginning was Hebei Xiyu." ”

Between the words, Xu You looked proud and said: "Lord, it's not that I, Xu You, is blind and arrogant, and I am playing this person, who seems to be very knowledgeable, but it is not so terrifying. ”

"I have a spy to report, Xi Yu was tired by the Cao clan, and my spy once reported to me that Yang Biao and his son were in trouble in Xuchang before."

"But there is no Cao clan member to speak for him, Xi Yu can only go alone, so it seems that Xi Yu also has weaknesses."

"Maybe it's not a good courtesy, maybe it's because Cao Cao doesn't like it, so it seems that you can find ways to separate these two, and with the help of the relationship between Xi Yu and the Cao clan, it is probably a wise way."

"Good." Hearing this, Yuan Hao said with a happy face.

If this matter is serious, it will be a decisive opportunity: as long as he can kill Cao Cao's chief strategist before the war starts, it will definitely affect Cao Cao's state of mind in battle.

"Hehe, this is very good, I must take the strengths of each family and make the most of it.

Subsequently, the strategy was sorted out and formed, and when it reached the government office, he worked hard to build armaments, recruit new soldiers, and worked hard to train war horses and iron cavalry and long-range attack battle arrays. ”

But after a moment, Xu You stood up and smiled indifferently, "The person who bought it at the beginning was Hebei Xiyu." ”

Between the words, Xu You looked proud and said: "Lord, it's not that I, Xu You, is blind and arrogant, and I am playing this person, who seems to be very knowledgeable, but it is not so terrifying. ”

"I have a spy to report, Xi Yu was tired by the Cao clan, and my spy once reported to me that Yang Biao and his son were in trouble in Xuchang before."

"But there is no Cao clan member to speak for him, Xi Yu can only go alone, so it seems that Xi Yu also has weaknesses."

"Maybe it's not a good courtesy, maybe it's because Cao Cao doesn't like it, so it seems that you can find a way to separate these two people, and it is probably a wise move to use the relationship between Xi Yu and the Cao clan."

"Good." Hearing this, Yuan Hao said with a happy face.

If this matter is serious, it will be a decisive opportunity: as long as he can kill Cao Cao's chief strategist before the war starts, it will definitely affect Cao Cao's state of mind in battle.

"Hehe, this is very good, I must take the strengths of each family and make the most of it.

Arrange the strategy into shape, reach the government office, strive to build ordnance, recruit new soldiers, and strive to train war horses and iron cavalry and long-range attack battle formations. ”

"I firmly believe that in less than three years, we will definitely go south and attack Xuchang in one fell swoop!"

"Lord Shengming!!"

For a moment, the advisors cheered.

A group of generals also looked at each other, and everyone understood the meaning of Yuan Hao's words.

This matter must not be rushed, now that you have just obtained Youzhou, it is the time to recuperate, but there are still many things to do before the battle.

For example, military advisors.

When leaving, Yuan Shao left Xu You.

Seeing that everyone was gradually moving away, Yuan Shao sighed and said, "How much do you know about this person?" ”

When Xu Yu heard this, Yuan Shao was for this matter.

"I don't know what the specific strength is."

"However, Xi Yu was born in a reckless manner, such a commoner, and now he has such strength, which must not be underestimated."

However, because of this, Xi Yu was hated by the scholar class.

I have to say that Xi Yu is holding a double-edged sword, although he can kill the enemy and kill the Cao thief, it is easy to make himself pay a heavy price. ”

"It is said that there are only 500 soldiers of the heavy battalion under Xi Yu, and, according to Xi Yu's requirements, these people must stay away from the ranks of Cao Cao's advisers and never compete with them for favor."

When Yuan Shao heard this, he nodded approvingly, "This is a smart move......
