Chapter 539 Weakening
"The old man Sima Hui's words are indeed not credible. Let's not talk about the power of Wolong. How can we settle the world even if we get this young phoenix? It would be nice if you don't trick me to death." Yuan Shu rolled his eyes and said. He finally understood.
Yes, Pang Tong is talented, but his shortcomings are not small, especially when he is not yet mature, he may die before he is born.
"My lord, Mr. Shui Jing is just a lover of his disciples, not to mention that his words are true. Shi Yuan is still young now. When his temperament matures in ten years, I am afraid that when it comes to leading troops in battle, even I will not be as good as him." Guo
Jia still respected Sima Huide as a person and defended him.
"That old man, let's not talk about it. He obviously has such a great ability, but he just keeps it to himself. He is still a great scholar and has no idea of benefiting the people." Yuan Shu complained.
Regarding what Yuan Shu said, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Xun You all kept silent. Yuan Shu's words hit hard, and they were all among them. Whether it was the hundreds of schools of thought represented by Guo Jia, Jia Xu, or
The aristocratic family represented by Xun You would like to take their knowledge to the grave. For people like Sima Hui and Pang Degong, it would be great to have apprentices to teach their skills. Not everyone has Zheng Xuan's mind.
"What do you plan to do with Lu Bu, my lord?" Jia Xuhu asked.
"What do you think?" Yuan Shu didn't think about it at this time. He didn't want to see such a top general killed or imprisoned by him. However, Lu Bu's character made Yuan Shu unable to completely trust him. He had no idea how to arrange this.
Yuan Shu, the tiger, was also worried.
"My lord, this person is not trustworthy and cannot be reused for the time being, but my lord does not want to treat him coldly. In this case, you might as well use his talents from another angle. For example, the military academy built by my lord is currently lacking a lecturer." Jia Xu
suggested directly.
Jia Xu had met Lu Bu when he was under Dong Zhuo, and knew that he had a volatile character and was not a trustworthy person. Now that he had just surrendered and his mind was still undecided, he must not be sent to lead the army alone. He must be observed for a period of time to slowly bring him back to his heart.
Yuan Shu can reuse it. For now, the military academy built by Yuan Shu is the best place for Lu Bu.
Yuan Shu pondered for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let him cultivate his moral character, reflect on what he has done in the past few years, and hone his character before he can lead the army alone. Potential mid-level and low-level generals in the army
Quite a bit, if Lu Bu, the best general in the world, can train him well, the army's combat effectiveness can be raised to a higher level."
"Yuzhou is about to be captured. Will my lord prepare to send troops to Xuzhou or Yanzhou next?" Guo Jia asked.
"Forget it, we have been fighting continuously for the past six months, and our soldiers are also tired. Besides, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are completely frightened now, and they still have the strength to hold on. Our troops are scattered, and it may not be realistic to capture another state.
If you push too hard, it may be counterproductive. Anyway, Yuzhou and Sili have been captured. As long as you rest for half a year, Yanzhou can be conquered at a snap." Yuan Shu sighed as he looked at the towering city walls of Qiao County.
"Actually, at this time, Cao Liu's troops are severely damaged and internally weak. It is not difficult for the lord and his lord to go out in two directions and lead his army to defeat them in one battle." Xun You suggested.
"The land of these three states is not stable yet. If we move too fast, the foundation may be shaken! The aristocratic families in Sili and Yuzhou are not fuel-efficient lamps. They must be dealt with carefully to avoid omissions." Yuan Shu didn't want to directly settle the matter.
Push down the Central Plains. But this period of time has taken too big a step. If the fight continues, I am afraid that the three states of the Central Plains will be able to get it, and the aristocratic family under his command will be unable to control it.
Zhongyuan is a place where aristocratic families gather, especially in Yuzhou. The influence of the aristocratic families can be said to be extremely terrifying. Even Yuan Shu is a little afraid of it. The depth of the aristocratic family cannot be compared to the aristocratic families in Jiangdong and Jingzhou, which are far away from the outside world.
Yuan Shu has the intention to directly unify the Central Plains, but he pays more attention to internal stability. When he started from the barren land of Yangzhou, he was just to lay a solid foundation. Now he can't waver just to shorten the two years to unify the world, okay?
It’s easy to lay a solid foundation.
"My lord, are you worried about this Yuzhou family?" Jia Xu asked.
Yuan Shu nodded lightly: "This fight has been so smooth, and there are almost eight out of ten people who surrender directly. However, the walls of Qiao County, the majestic capital of Yuzhou, are so high but there are only a few hundred guards. The strength of Yuzhou's aristocratic families, if you think about it carefully
It’s so scary!”
"They want to sell a good one to their lord and show off their strength at the same time. These old foxes are very difficult to deal with." Guo Jia curled his lips and said.
"Fortunately, he still has a sense of proportion. If the entire Yuzhou surrenders without a fight, I'm afraid my lord will wave his butcher's knife at them!" Xun You said.
Yuan Shu smiled coldly: "Yes, if they really do that, a certain family will definitely slaughter the Yuzhou family and bleed into rivers. I am not Liu Xuande. You want to threaten me? First see how many heads you have that I can chop off."
.”
Jia Xu shook his head lightly: "Liu Xuande was of too low a background and had too little foundation, so he was too indulgent towards the Yuzhou family. Unfortunately, the Yuzhou family is also a little disappointed with him now. Only Chen Qun from the Chen family followed him to Yanzhou.
Xun Yue even went into seclusion, leaving only some small aristocratic families who wanted to speculate with him.
"Liu Xuande is nothing to worry about. Even if I don't destroy him, he will be destroyed by Cao Cao. But there are too many local aristocratic families in Yuzhou. Yuzhou under my command does not allow so many aristocratic families to exist, let alone Liu Bei's command.
There is such an awesome family like the Chen family." Yuan Shu said firmly.
Xun You sighed secretly: "What are your plans, my lord?"
Yuan Shu looked at Qiao County coldly: "Half of the Yuzhou family will be moved to Sili, and the Chen family will be split up. You let them do it themselves, I will give them two months, and I will do it myself after two months.
I'm afraid they are not as gentle as themselves."
"My lord, now Sili is empty and desolate, how will they survive if you let them go!" Xun You said with a bitter smile.
"They can lead their servants and people to follow them. There is no limit to the number of people." Yuan Shu showed his fox tail and said with a smile.
Xun You rolled his eyes when he heard this: "My lord, you are really a profiteer. While weakening the Yuzhou family, you make the Yuzhou family work in vain. Aren't you afraid that those people will fall out with you in a hurry?"
"They dare?" Yuan Shu said domineeringly: "Under my command, everyone must obey or die. For what they are doing in Yuzhou now, and what they have done for Liu Bei, I will kill all the Yuzhou families.
It’s not too much, just give them a way out.”
Seeing such a domineering Yuan Shu, Xun You could only nod his head in agreement, and mourned in his heart for these Yuzhou aristocratic families.
"Let's take Qiao County directly tomorrow, don't leave any ink. Cao Cao can't take any losses. He has already lost his troops. If it drags on, Cao Cao will probably take away two more counties."
