Chapter Twenty-Eight: Foreshadowing

Liu Ye listened to Liu Xun's narration and analysis very carefully, and couldn't help but be a little surprised. After all, Liu Ye has lived in Jiangdong for a long time, so he naturally has heard of Liu Xun.

Now that Liu Xun has resigned, Liu Ye feels that this is too different from the rumored gossip. Although he was very puzzled, Liu Ye didn't show it, and Zhengse said: "I don't know if the lord wants to live in peace or dominate the world, or subservient to others?" ”

Liu Xun said very firmly when he heard this: "People must take the world as their own responsibility for their lives, and the eldest husband naturally wants to step on the Central Plains, how can he be willing to live in a couple." ”

Liu Ye was shocked when he heard this, it seemed that the rumors were not credible, and all he heard before was "Liu Xun is a villain who regards wealth as his life, and he has no ambitions". But when I saw Liu Xun in front of me today, how could I not cover the sky-high arrogance, how could he be a villain with no ambition with such momentum?

Obviously, Liu Ye had been prepared for this problem before he came, and I saw Liu Ye say without thinking: "Lord, if the general trend has been achieved today, Yuan Shao occupies the four continents of Hebei and has strong strength, and it is not something we can shake at all." And Cao Cao in the Central Plains now occupies Xuzhou, Yunzhou, Yuzhou, Luoyang, and Chang'an, and his strength should not be underestimated, only second only to Yuan Shao, and this person is not something we can shake. If the lord wants to get the world, he must first seize Jiangdong, crusade against Sun Ce, and annex Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Zhang of Yizhou with Jiangdong as the foundation. When the world changes, he will send troops to the Central Plains to conquer the world. ”

Liu Xun nodded and said: "What Zi Yang said is reasonable, listening to your words is better than reading ten years, I have the same opinion as Zi Yang." But at present, my strength is still too weak, and I hope Ziyang can help me. ”

"The lord doesn't have to be like this, if you have any orders, Ziyang will definitely go all out." Liu Ye said very solemnly

Liu Xun said solemnly, "In that case, I won't sell Guanzi anymore." I want to conquer the borderless land of Shouchun, but I'm afraid that I'll make too much noise and attract the attention of others. The most important thing is that Shouchun is too close to Cao Cao's territory, and if Shouchun is captured in Lujiang County, as well as his close relationship with Yuan Shu, it will be easy to touch Cao Cao's sensitive nerves at that time. ”

"Zi Yang, think about it, if I really go to capture Shouchun, Cao Mengde will definitely send troops to stop me from annexing Shouchun. But if it was you, Cao Cao might not care, and even came to woo you.

So I want you to lead the 8,000 brothers you brought to take the opportunity to capture Shouchun. At that time, even if you really take Shouchun, Cao Cao will definitely not care too much when he learns that you led only a group of bandits and captured Shouchun. After all, your weak strength can't pose a threat to him, and now Cao Cao is also restrained by Yuan Shao, and he doesn't have the energy to deal with you at all. When the situation changes abruptly, we can use Shouchun as the base point to quickly send troops to the Central Plains to catch them off guard. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Ye felt that this plan was very good, and said at the moment: "The lord is really eloquent, this strategy can enhance the actual strength without causing fear among others, it is really the best policy." But Ziyang is worried that there are two things that will affect the lord's plan. The first question is that Yuan Highway has not been completely defeated, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, in case this person is intercepted by Cao Cao and returns to Shouchun, what should we do? ”

"What Zi Yang said is that Ben Taishou has also considered this issue, but I learned a major news from Yuan Shu's cronies before, Yuan Shu is seriously ill and will not survive for a few days. Please don't worry about this, Ziyang will definitely not return to Shouchun alive. Although Liu Xun knows the trend of history, if he really tells the truth, it is estimated that Liu Ye is a hundred unbelievers, and now he can only make up a white lie, as long as he can achieve the effect.

"Is there such a thing? This is really the land of God bless the lord to seize Shouchun. Liu Ye didn't suspect Liu Xun's lies, after all, Liu Xun is Yuan Shu's old subordinate, and there will definitely be old knowledge still by Yuan Shu's side, so it's not normal to know something that others don't know?

The second question is whether Cao Mengde will really be an enemy of Yuan Shao, after all, the two are now closely related, and Cao Cao is a prince supported by Yuan Shao himself. If the two get along well, Cao Mengde, who has no worries, wants to clean us up, it's just a gesture. Liu Ye asked with some concern.

"Haha, Ziyang, Cao Mengde and Yuan Shao have already been at odds with each other. Now Yuan Shao is ambitious and wants to dominate the world, and Cao Mengde is a traitor in the world, how can he be willing to give up the Central Plains? And this world can only be the world of one person, and one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. The spy I planted next to Cao Mengde has sent back information, and now Yuan Shao wants to capture the Central Plains, and Cao Mengde has already secretly prepared to fight Yuan Shao with all his might. Now I don't have the energy to deal with us "shrimp soldiers and crab generals". ”

Looking at Liu Xun's calm answer, from Liu Xun's words, Liu Ye had realized that the lord in front of him was by no means an ordinary person, and such insider information could be obtained, indicating that the lord's manpower had already been mixed into Cao Cao's high-level management.

Where did Liu Ye think of it, all this is just Liu Xun's casual nonsense, and there is no Liu Xun's eyeliner in Cao Yingzhong at all, but it does not prevent Liu Xun from saying the truth.

Liu Ye, who was unaware at the moment, was very shocked by Liu Xun's performance, and there was an unaware horror. My father-in-law's understanding of the general trend of the world is definitely beyond the imagination of others. Now that the words have been said for this part, Liu Ye naturally chooses to believe in his lord: "The lord is really taking precautions, Ziyang is not as good as it, today I am willing to drive for the lord and go to Shouchun to expand the territory for the lord." ”

Liu Xun smiled very happily: "Then everything is up to Ziyang, you can tell me what you need to go to Shouchun." I hope Ziyang will be cautious along the way, so as not to let others see the flaws. These people around me are all my cronies, and they won't reveal the relationship between us, so please rest assured. ”

Liu Ye hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't bother the lord, I have already moved all the grain and grass in the cottage this time, it will definitely be enough for a while." Now that the matter is urgent, Ye can directly lead the troops to Shouchun. Along the way, Ye must be cautious and not show any horses, and please don't worry about it. ”

Liu Xun held Liu Ye's hand and said solemnly, "Since this is the case, I will not be polite, please tell me as soon as possible if you have any difficulties." Now that you are surrounded by newly descended mountain bandits, Ben Taishou is a little relieved of your safety, and it is really inconvenient to go far away without a credible person around you. “

Then Liu Xun pointed behind him and continued to Liu Ye: "This is General Liu Jie, who is my confidant and favorite general, General Liu is loyal and courageous, and acts prudently. Today, I will ask him to lead a thousand troops to Shouchun with you, I don't know what to do with Ziyang? ”

Liu Ye was very moved and said: "What the lord said is reasonable, but Ye didn't think about it. In this case, everything is subject to the arrangement of the lord. ”
