When Xu Shu heard Lu Bu's words, he was startled and asked hurriedly, "Marquis Wen, why did you give up? What happened?"
Lu Bu looked at Xu Shu with burning eyes and said slowly, "Yuan Zhi, what I am worried about now is Yuan Shao of Jizhou!"
Hearing this, Xu Shu immediately reacted and his face changed, "Marquis Wen, are you worried that Yuan Shao of Jizhou will also take action?"
Lu Bu nodded with a wry smile, "Yuan Zhi, even Liu Biao, who always thought he would not send troops, has sent troops to attack Xuzhou. I am afraid that Yuan Shao of Jizhou will not be content with the status quo. If he does, the consequences will be serious.
!"
At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and a voice sounded outside the door.
"Marquis Wen, the spies from Jizhou are back."
Upon hearing the news, Lu Bu's expression changed and he hurriedly said, "Let him in quickly."
Soon, a sweaty spy hurried in from outside the door. When he saw Lu Bu, he hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "I have met Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu waved his hand and asked hurriedly, "When Congcong comes back, what happened in Jizhou?"
The spy raised his hand and said, "Marquis Wen, Jizhou is mobilizing troops, and some of them have already set off for Youzhou."
Having said this, the spy wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, "The news we got back this time seems that Jizhou has mobilized a lot of troops, probably as many as hundreds of thousands of people."
Xu Shu asked hurriedly, "Have all these soldiers gone to Youzhou?"
The spy shook his head, "About 60,000 to 70,000 people have gone to Youzhou, and the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are still being prepared. I believe it won't be long before they set off. As for their destination, it is still unclear.
Didn't find out."
Lu Bu waved his hand to the spy, "You should go and rest first, and then continue to inquire. If you have news, come back and report it as soon as possible."
The spy cupped his hands, turned and left.
Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Xu Shu, whose face was full of surprise, and asked slowly, "Yuan Zhi, what do you think of this matter?"
Xu Shu was silent for a long time, then suddenly sighed and said with a wry smile, "Marquis Wen, I always thought that I knew all the princes in the world, but now it seems that I have all guessed wrong."
Speaking of this, Xu Shu's eyes flashed with sadness, "Marquis Wen, I am really upset and I can't think of the reason."
Lu Bu looked at the sad look in Xu Shu's eyes and couldn't help but frown.
He knew why Xu Shu was like this. If there hadn't been this game, everything Xu Shusuo judged would be correct. As he said, he knew all the princes in the world and there was absolutely nothing wrong.
But now, it's not that he guessed wrong, but that game changed everything.
Even if Xu Shucai had met people before, he would never have expected that this game could change people's lives.
Xu Shu is not to blame for all this, but the world has changed, and even Lu Bu no longer recognizes him.
Thinking of this, Lu Bu sighed and said slowly, "Yuan Zhi, your guess is actually right, but people will change. Maybe they have changed?"
Xu Shu nodded and said with a wry smile, "Yes, everything has changed."
Lu Bu waved his hand and suddenly laughed, "Yuan Zhi, are you afraid that the world has changed?"
Hearing this, Xu Shu was stunned, "Afraid?"
After saying this, Xu Shu suddenly realized what he had learned. He only became depressed because of other people's changes. Is this still him?
No, never!
Xu Shu's eyes suddenly burst into light, and he laughed suddenly, "Marquis Wen, you are right, even if they change, so what, am I, Xu Shu, still afraid of them, haha!"
Seeing Xu Shu regaining his confidence, Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief.
With such a top talent next to me, if I continue to be depressed like this and face this strange world by myself, it might be really difficult!
Xu Shu paced back and forth in the room. After a long time, he suddenly sneered, "Marquis Wen, I understand."
Lu Bu's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly, "Yuanzhi, please tell me quickly."
Xu Shu nodded and said slowly, "If what I predict is good, Yuan Shao of Jizhou wants to conquer the world!"
After hearing this, Lu Bu nodded, "Yuanzhi, you are right, it is true."
Xu Shu continued, "This time Yuan Shao of Jizhou sent troops and horses. If my prediction is correct, he wanted to pacify the rear, that is, to completely defeat Gongsun Zan.
After the rear is stable, Yuan Shao from Jizhou will send troops to Yanzhou to implement the world's great plan."
Hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes lit up and he asked tentatively, "Yuan Zhi, you mean to say that Yuan Shao of Jizhou can't take care of Yanzhou for the time being and wants to attack Youzhou with all his strength, and we are safe for the time being, right?" Xu Shu nodded, "Yes, that's the truth."
At this point, Xu Shu paused and continued, "I'm afraid Liu Biao of Jingzhou has the same thought. The reason why he sent troops to Xuzhou is probably because of Liu Bei.
But whether he attacks Xuzhou or Huainan first, these two places are Jingzhou and Liu Biao must win.
Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, probably had the same idea. He knew that it would be difficult to cross the river because he was across the river. Therefore, he wanted to cross the river in advance to occupy a favorable terrain, and then slowly make plans."<
/p>
When Lu Bu heard Xu Shu's analysis, he couldn't help but nodded and secretly praised it in his heart.
"Yuan Zhi, since you have guessed their intentions, is there any way to crack it?"
"Cracked?"
Xu Shu shook his head and said slowly, "Marquis Wen, if Yuan Shao of Jizhou wants to completely pacify Youzhou, it may not be that easy. Although Gongsun Zan has been defeated repeatedly during this period, he is a strong man. Even if he wants to completely eliminate him,
I'm afraid Yuan Shao of Jizhou will suffer a serious loss of vitality.
In a short period of time, Yuan Shao of Jizhou will never be able to use troops against Yanzhou, unless he wants to fight on two fronts, but this is almost impossible.
If he really does this, I'm afraid he is not worthy of fighting in the world."
Lu Bu was stunned and asked in confusion, "Yuan Zhi, why is this?"
Xu Shu said with a smile, "Marquis Wen, when the Qin State was strong and powerful, it still used the method of making friends from far away and attacking closely, and defeated them one by one. Only in this way can the world be unified.
If Yuan Shao of Jizhou came to attack Yanzhou before pacifying Youzhou, fighting on two fronts would probably not last long.
As long as there is only one front line and the battle fails, it will probably affect the overall situation and both lines will collapse at the same time.
Therefore, although Yuan Shao of Jizhou is powerful, if he wants to conquer the world, he can only attack Youzhou first. There is no other way."
Hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but nodded, "Yuan Zhi, you are right."
