Chapter 675 Xu You: You are not talented, I wish to rely on a tongue that is not rotten...
Chapter 675 Xu You: You are not talented, but I would like to rely on my sharp tongue...
The sky has cleared up and the large clouds have dispersed.
The rain on the road has basically disappeared.
The vegetation on both sides of the road, watered by the rain, now looks even more green and full of vitality.
The sun shines down, bringing with it a scorching heat, and at the same time it makes the vegetation grow as quickly as possible.
There is steam rising.
Liu Bei is riding on a war horse, wearing armor and with two swords hanging from his waist.
Not far away from him, Guan Yu was holding a Green Dragon Sword and was covered in armor, looking majestic.
The beard that was short and cut back then has grown much longer now.
It will soon catch up to its previous size.
Behind them, soldiers and horses followed each other, and their swords were shining brightly.
Riding a war horse and walking on the road, feeling the breath of battle blown by the wind, Liu Bei also felt some pride in his heart.
This time, Yanzhou must be taken down.
With Yanzhou in hand, I can speak more forcefully.
It is best to take Qingzhou after taking Yanzhou.
Thinking of what Tao Qian said to him again, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel some joy in his heart.
After all, my efforts for such a long time were not in vain.
From the time when the princes attacked Dong Zhuo, they have been operating carefully and working hard.
At this time, all the hard work has finally paid off.
I, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, are again unknown people.
At this time, his reputation has begun to show, and he can begin to lead the army and fight with the people of the world!
It's a pity that my third brother is missing.
After all, there are still a lot of powerful generals under his command.
If there are two generals, the second brother and the third brother, assisting each other, he can take down Yanzhou at a faster speed and then seize Qingzhou.
With this thought in his mind, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Later, the resentment towards Liu Cheng could not help but rise from the bottom of my heart again.
This guy not only killed his third brother, he also killed his own arm!
The impact on myself is really great!
Liu Bei led his army towards Yanzhou.
After arriving in Yanzhou, military operations were not immediately launched.
Instead, he first paid homage to Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin.
Bao Xin is very famous here in Yanzhou.
Previously, the relationship between Bao Xin and Liu Bei was very good.
Bao Xin admired Liu Bei very much.
Later, Bao Xin died in battle, and Liu Bei escorted his coffin back to help with funeral arrangements.
Now, coming to worship Bao Xin again has made many people in Yanzhou feel good about him.
After paying homage to Bao Xin, Liu Bei took this opportunity to express his intention.
He said that he came here not for fighting, but because he did not want Yanzhou to fall into Yuan Shao's hands.
Then he took out Tao Qian's letters and addressed them to the leading figures in Yanzhou...
Liu Bei has strong interpersonal skills, infectious energy, and charming personality.
Doing things also makes people feel comfortable.
After such an operation, Liu Bei suddenly gained the support of many people from the Yanzhou family.
In addition, Yuan Shao is eyeing him in the north, so under this situation, Liu Bei is relatively successful here.
Before the soldiers and horses took action, he had already won by four points in Yanzhou.
With the support of the Yanzhou family in Yanzhou, the next thing will be much easier.
Guan Yu led his soldiers and horses to charge directly at the cities that refused to surrender and captured them...
It was also at this time that Guan Yu's combat prowess and leadership skills were further brought into play.
Only then did everyone realize that this red-faced man who didn't look very glorious when facing Liu Cheng at Sishui Pass was actually so fierce!
Zhang He, who led his troops to occupy Pingyuan County, immediately inquired about the news.
He immediately passed the news to Yuan Shao.
At the same time, they also organized their troops and horses, took precautions, and guarded Pingyuan County and some places around Pingyuan County.
To prevent Liu Xuande's troops from coming here to attack.
After all, he had sneak attack on Liu Bei's lair before.
There is animosity between the two sides.
After Yuan Shao learned the news, he immediately called Dong Zhao and Xu You over for discussion.
"The land of Yanzhou is now ownerless, so it is the best time to capture it.
Liu Bei was not well-known in the past, but he had great abilities.
He also had a good relationship with Gongsun Zan and treated Gongsun Zan as his brother.
Now my lord is attacking Gongsun in the north. In order to prevent Liu Bei from taking action in the south, he sends Zhang He to occupy Pingyuan County.
This feud has been settled
Now Liu Bei gained Tao Qian's trust and led his troops to attack Yanzhou.
Yanzhou is adjacent to Jizhou and is connected to Pingyuan County.
Now Gongsun Zan is trapped in a desperate situation.
Liu Bei will definitely not give up after capturing Yanzhou.
Whether it was for Gongsun Zan or for the previous capture of Pingyuan County, he would definitely come to attack Jizhou.
Together with Gongsun Zan, one from the south and one from the north, they attacked the lord from both sides.
Under such circumstances, please do not take it lightly.
It is necessary to send troops and horses to Zhang He, and together with Zhang He, guard against Liu Bei..."
There was no smile on Dong Zhao's fat face at this time.
It can be seen that he attaches great importance to this matter.
After listening to Dong Zhao's words, Yuan Shao did not speak for a while, but turned his head to Xu You.
"What do you think of Ziyuan?"
Xu You had a smile on his face and stretched out his hand to stroke his beard.
"My lord, what Gongren said is indeed correct.
Liu Bei should not be taken lightly.
We must prevent them from taking Yanzhou and taking advantage of the situation to go north and attack Jizhou.
Once this happens, it will not be a good thing for the Lord.
Now is a great time to destroy Gongsun Zan and capture Youzhou.
We cannot let people like this disrupt the situation and cause bad things."
After saying this to him, he changed the subject and said: "My lord, now that Gongsun Zan has been surrounded, it is the best time to destroy him.
The Lord's elite troops and horses must not be moved easily and must be moved elsewhere.
We still need to continue to besiege Gongsun Zan here.
Destroy it as quickly as possible,
There can be no relaxation at all.
Once we relax, according to Gongsun Zan's ability, it will be very difficult to find an opportunity to completely destroy him in the future."
Yuan Shao nodded when he heard this. In fact, this was exactly what he was worried about.
Gongsun Zan really didn't dare to take things lightly.
After all, he and Gongsun fought together before and suffered a great loss.
At this time, after such long efforts, Gongsun Zan was finally forced into a desperate situation.
If at this time, due to the influence of some things, he cannot do his best, he will be killed completely.
That would be a pity!
According to Gongsun Zan's ability and influence in Youzhou, there will be endless troubles in the future!
But if we don't send troops, we are worried that Liu Bei will quickly capture Yanzhou and then go north to attack Jizhou.
Let yourself be attacked from both sides.
Xu You said: "Lord, there is no need to worry about these.
We can also do some other things here.
For example, you can send people to Yanzhou at this time to encourage the local powerful and powerful families.
Promise them something and let them resist Liu Bei.
At the same time, some troops and horses were also sent to support Zhang He.
The most important thing is to send people to Qingzhou to contact Kong Rong.
Let Kong Rong and the rest of Qingzhou's troops rescue Yanzhou."
Hearing what Xu You said, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up.
This is indeed a pretty good idea!
Kong Rong has a good reputation, but his reputation is more due to his being a descendant of Confucius and his reputation as a scholar.
When it comes to fighting and handling local government affairs, he is far behind.
For such a person, there is no need to worry if he can grow up in a short period of time.
Because after that, if you really want to deal with him, it will be very easy.
Even if he can really occupy Qingzhou and Yanzhou when the time comes, it won't be a big problem.
However, this is impossible to happen because Kong Rong does not have such great ability.
However, if Kong Rong really takes action, he can effectively block Liu Bei for a period of time.
As long as he insists on completely destroying Gongsun Zan, it will be enough.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt something was wrong.
“Would Kong Rong really do this?”
He raised his head and looked at Xu You asking.
"Tao Qian sent troops and horses to break the siege of the Yellow Turban before."
Xu You said: "My lord, there is no need to worry.
It is impossible for Kong Rong to really lead his troops into Yanzhou and compete with Liu Xuande.
But it is not a problem for him to raise troops to protect himself and defend Yanzhou.
You Bucai was willing to go there in person, spoke to Kong Rong with a smooth tongue, and asked him to order troops and horses to display near Yanzhou.
Kong Rong's soldiers and horses are here, directly threatening Yanzhou.
Even if Liu Bei could capture Yanzhou, he would definitely not dare to lead troops to attack Jizhou.
In this way, the main attacker can safely attack Gongsun Zan and destroy him.
The main attacker must remember not to let his guard down before Gongsun Zan is destroyed.
At this time, all the heroes came together.
Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, I think Liu Cheng will soon mobilize troops and go to conquer Yuan Shu.
Liu Cheng's troops can be considered officially out of the gate.
This is the biggest threat.
Tao Qian and Liu Bei keep moving again...
Under this situation, the Lord needs to take Youzhou into his hands as soon as possible, so that he can have no worries in the future.
Then go south and compete with others for hegemony...
Otherwise, when the time comes, you will be attacked from both sides, and you will fall behind others and be controlled by others..."
Hearing what Xu You said, Yuan Shao couldn't help but smile.
"What Ziyuan said is exactly what I meant.
I have a son far away, so what do I have to worry about?
This time, a lot of trouble will be far away!"
Xu You smiled and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. I am Benchu's counselor and it is my duty to advise Benchu. However..."
He said and paused.
“This is a huge risk.
Moreover, Qingzhou is not wealthy.
I went to talk to Kong Rong, but I couldn't go empty-handed.
If you talk empty talk and don't give him any benefits, Kong Rong may not be obedient.
It may not be able to achieve the desired effect..."
As soon as he said these words, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel a little pain in his body.
Just know!!!
Xu You will definitely have such a skill!
This is a layman who adds money!
If you want him to contribute his efforts to accomplish something, you must add money.
If you don't add money, nothing will happen.
This made Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel pain in his body, and he was also very dissatisfied with Xu You.
But Xu You is a man with good resourcefulness.
And at this time, things are indeed quite critical, and I urgently need to do a good job in this matter.
Then even if you spend some money, it's worth it...
It’s just that I’m not willing to spend the money...
Immediately he said: "What Ziyuan said is absolutely true, so naturally we cannot go empty-handed.
So he gave Ziyuan 100,000 yuan. What did Ziyuan think?
Here, there are wars everywhere now.
Soldiers, horses, food and grass consume a lot of money..."
Yuan Shao looked at Xu You and said this, as if he was bargaining.
Seeing this, Xu You said: "One hundred thousand dollars is a bit short, I will use another fifty thousand dollars to make up for it..."
Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this.
Is this Xu You so good? Do you want to pay for it yourself?
"But my family's fields are somewhat sparse. I heard that there are many places in Youzhou where the land is very rich..."
After Xu You said this, he stopped going on.
But Yuan Shao already knew exactly what he wanted to express.
This bullshit!!
Yuan Shao couldn't help but curse in his heart.
What a great money maker!
What can I say about adding another 50,000 yuan?
Even if he could spend half of this 100,000 yuan with Kong Rong, it was already a lot.
The rest will be put into his pocket.
This is obvious, I want to get more benefits from here!
Yuan Shao became increasingly dissatisfied with Xu You.
But there was a kind smile on his face.
He nodded seriously: "Ziyuan doesn't need to worry about the land.
These are indispensable for you.
You and I are best friends.
He is also an important adviser to me, how could he let you suffer?
There are many people eating at Ziyuan's house, so it's really not possible if the land is small."
After getting Yuan Shao's promise, Xu You happily left Yuan Shao.
When leaving, he solemnly said to Yuan Shao: "My lord, just attack Gongsun Zan here and destroy him in one battle.
Things here in Yanzhou are safe with Xu You going!"
When Yuan Shao heard this, he said to Xu You: "If you say this, I will feel relieved.
If I hadn't had my son far away, it would have been very difficult for me to do this..."
When Xu You was leaving, he raised his eyebrows at Dong Zhao while Yuan Shao was not paying attention.
With some provocation and showoff.
Dong Zhao waited to see all this in his eyes.
In response, he still had a simple and honest smile on his fat face, as if he didn't understand what Xu You had done.
Here again, after talking to Yuan Shao, Dong Zhao also left Yuan Shao.
On the way back, Dong Zhao couldn't help but shook his head secretly,
Xu You, to be honest, is indeed very talented.
Able to do things and get things done well.
However, this person's personality is too flawed and he is too public.
It seems that he is the only smart person in the whole world.
And he is particularly greedy for money.
Even when doing things with the lord Yuan Shao, he always talks about money.
This Xu You will definitely not be able to last long in the future.
Yuan Shao could tolerate him once, twice...ten times.
But when Xu You is no longer useful, he will definitely not get a good ending.
You need to stay away from this kind of person from now on...
