Chapter 227 The plan to sink the boat
"Yi'er, you have to be clear, don't do things too hastily. As the spokesperson of our general's office among the merchants, you are basically guaranteed to win. There is no need to make too many enemies." Yuan Shu warned.
"Don't learn from Zhang on this. She is completely greedy. If she hadn't made too many enemies, how could she let the Mi family take advantage of the opportunity to rise up!"
It is said that the situation is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change. This is true. Zhang's short-sighted shortcomings of being strong and short-sighted cannot be changed at all.
Although he restrained himself under Yuan Shu's reminder, Zhang is still very strong in daily business competition and often steals food from others.
The Mi family and the Zhang family took the opposite route. Mi Zhu, who had a gentle temperament, wanted to win over most businessmen and bring everyone together to make money.
Yuan Shu now has the intention of bringing the Mi family under his command. Mi Zhu is indeed a talent. He has slowly developed in Jiangdong quietly and without competition. In terms of strength and connections, he is even more powerful than Zhen.
One end of the house.
"I know, husband!" Cai Yi pouted and said aggrievedly.
I thought I would be praised for doing such a good job, but I didn't expect to be criticized. Cai Yi felt full of grievances.
Seeing Cai Yi's pitiful look, Yuan Shu realized that his words were a bit harsh. He quickly walked over and gently hugged Cai Yi, saying in her ear: "Yier, you did a good job. But there are still some places.
If you don't handle it properly, come to my room tonight and I will teach you slowly."
Hearing Yuan Shu's shameless words, Cai Yi's face turned pale and she was so ashamed. She lightly stepped on Yuan Shu's foot, buried her head in Yuan Shu's arms, and stopped talking.
"Haha! I didn't expect that Yi'er, who is all-powerful in the mall, would still feel shy! It's really funny."
Seeing Cai Yi in the posture of a little woman in his arms, Yuan Shu's heart was filled with a sense of satisfaction mixed with vanity.
In his last life, he was not very capable. Although he was a rich second generation, he could only date some schoolgirls and vain girls. Strong women like Cai Yi simply looked down on him.
And in this life, I have made up for this regret. There is a woman who is extremely strong outside, but is as gentle as a cat in front of me.
Here Yuan Shu is still in a romantic relationship, but in the Central Plains, there is a turbulent undercurrent between Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
"My lord, now Yuan Shu wants to conquer Xichuan and is unable to care about the war in the Central Plains. It's time for us to take action." As Liu Bei's chief military think tank, Liu Ye said urgently.
"My lord, what Ziyang said is true. Now all the heroes are expanding, and we can't stick to Yuzhou! Cao Mengde has also launched a large-scale attack on Xuzhou. Even if we can't steal food from his mouth, we still want to get a share of the pie.
"Chen Qun said.
"But Cao Mengde's men are all tiger and wolf masters, and we may not be able to defeat them. What's more, Zhang Wenyuan and Sun Wentai, who are under Yuan Shu's men, are watching, so how can we act?"
Liu Bei was also very anxious. He originally had a weak foundation, and he was caught between the two heroes Yuan Shu and Cao Cao. If he just sat back and watched the two of them gradually become stronger, he would be the turtle in the urn.
But now he is indeed a wolf in front and a tiger in the back. He has many worries and cannot make up his mind to attack at all.
"Don't worry, my lord! There are three forces surrounding us now, and the five states are adjacent to each other. Moreover, there are many rifts between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao. If done properly, we may not be able to escape from the prison of Yuzhou." Xun Yue said calmly.
"If Zhong Yu has any good plans, tell me quickly." Liu Bei said quickly.
"There are three strategies, upper, middle and lower, for the lord to choose from."
"What's the plan?"
"The plan is to break the cauldron and sink the boat. Attack Luoyang directly, and then capture Sili and Xiliang to become the power of the Western Qin!" A gleam flashed in Xun Yue's eyes.
"No!"
"No!"
The same words were shouted from the mouths of Liu Ye and Chen Qun.
Chen Qun stood up first and said anxiously: "Zhong Yu, do you know that Yuzhou is our foundation? If we attack Luoyang and extend the battle line so long, I am afraid that Yuzhou will not be able to be protected by then!"
Chen Qun understood what Xun Yue meant. Yuzhou was undefeable and was surrounded by Yuan Shu and Cao Cao. It was not a place where he could live for a long time. Xun Yue planned to abandon Yuzhou and take Guanzhong.
However, although he understands Xun Yue's thoughts, Chen Qun simply cannot agree to this kind of thing. Giving up his good base and pursuing a more ideal starting point is a gambling behavior that is definitely not acceptable to ordinary people.
Especially someone like Chen Qun, who is good at both internal affairs and strategy, has a calm personality, and is even less likely to agree to such eccentric behavior.
"Most of the people in Yuzhou are located in Runan, which is very close to Guanzhong. The commander of the battle line moved the people in Yuzhou to Guanzhong, abandoning Yuzhou and taking Guanzhong." Xun Yue said calmly.
Now he is completely in an extremely rational state. Observing the world from the perspective of a bystander, he can naturally see that this is Liu Bei's best choice.
"Although Guanzhong is dangerous, Dong Zhuo's disaster caused Guanzhong to be thousands of miles away, and the people in Guanzhong were not even alive. It cannot be used as a foundation at all." Chen Qun then raised a second question.
Xun Yue put it simply, the people who moved to Yuzhou moved to Guanzhong. But moving people is an extremely difficult thing. It means forced migration. It would be good if half of the people can move out.
After all, it’s hard to leave your homeland, not to mention the chaos in the world. It’s not that difficult for the people of Yuzhou to move to Guanzhong.
"After we occupy Guanzhong, we can then take Chang'an and Xiliang as our foundation."
"Chang'an is occupied by Li Jue and Guo Si. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to capture it," Liu Ye said.
"These two are no more than ordinary men. With your ability, Ziyang, you can easily defeat them with some tactics!" Xun Yue glanced at Liu Ye and said.
"It's still not appropriate. We have just established a foundation in Yuzhou and the situation is very good. Why should we sacrifice the near for the distant and take the risk of Guanzhong? If something unexpected happens and Yuan Shu or Cao Cao seize the opportunity, I am afraid that the good situation will be ruined.
Once!" Chen Qun said solemnly.
He who acts calmly cannot accept Xun Yue's desperate strategy.
"Everyone has made up his own mind about the pros and cons. There is no need to say more. I leave it to my lord to decide everything."
Xun Yue knew that he would encounter countless doubts and objections if he said this best idea, so he simply said no more words and bowed directly to Liu Bei.
"Well! Although this plan is good, it is too risky. Zhongyu, you'd better tell me the middle and lower strategies first!" Liu Bei hesitated for a while, but still couldn't make up his mind.
After all, he is not the uncle Liu Huang who suffered many failures and hardships in history. He got such a rich land in Yuzhou from the beginning and finally settled down, but you asked him to give up all this. How could he be willing to do so?
Xun Yue sighed softly in his heart. He knew it would be like this!
Once the middle and lower strategies come out, will anyone still choose the best strategy?
