The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 46 Xun Yu's Strategy
Governor of Yangzhou, Marquis of Chen Xiang?
Liu Xiao sneered secretly in his heart, this Yuan Shao really had a good plan, a governor of Yangzhou, he sounds very imposing, much more generous than Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan, Liu Yu's Jade Seal of Chuanguo was just a request for Zhuo He was just the prefect of the county, and Gongsun Zan only wanted to do something for one of his county magistrates. Look at Yuan Shao, and with a wave of his hand, he is the governor of Yangzhou!
It's a pity that I, Liu Xiao, am by no means an idiot who is only interested in money!
It's very simple, Yangzhou, that's Yuan Shu's territory, and I don't see eye to eye with Yuan Shu, running to Yuan Shu's territory, isn't that courting death?He, Yuan Shao, is at ease. He defeated Gongsun Zan, dared to run away from Liu Yu, and sent himself to Yangzhou. There is no doubt that Qingyou and Jizhou will have no opponents, and all of them will become his territory. It is easy to calculate. ah!
"Mr. Zhongzhi, thank you Yuan Benchu ​​for your kindness, but..."

Liu Xiao said with a smile, "I'm still more interested in Jizhou, or Youzhou is fine too!"

amount……

Xin Ping's face darkened, Jizhou or Youzhou?I'll give you Jizhou and Youzhou, so why should our lord go to great lengths to deal with Han Fu and Gongsun Zan?These two states are the foundation of the Yuan family. If they are given to you, what shall we do?
"General Xuangan was joking. You don't tell lies in front of real people. Jizhou is the root of Yuan Benchu, and Youzhou is Yuan Benchu's wings. If a tree has no roots, it will die. A bird without wings cannot fly. General Xuangan wants to Inspector of Jizhou or Inspector of Youzhou, where did you put Yuan Benchu?"

"Ha ha……"

Xun Yu laughed and said, "Mr. Zhongzhi, it was just a joke. However, my lord is not interested in the governor of Yangzhou. How about Qingzhou? Otherwise, Xuzhou is also possible. Of course, the governor of a state may not be the same as Yuan Benchu." The above table has been approved by the court, a prefect of a county is enough, Gongsun Zan has bullied my lord too much before, if it is not for him, Gongsun Zan is powerful, we will never give up with him!"

Xin Ping felt relieved, and replied: "Mr. Wen Ruo is indeed different from ordinary people. The governor of a state is a great official in the frontier. It is indeed too difficult for General Xuangan to get the position of governor before he is weak. However, the county guard The position of the governor of Yangzhou is not difficult. The governor of Yangzhou is just trying to test it. Mr. Wen Ruo can choose a rich place for General Xuangan. Any county is not a problem. Do what is in the general's bag."

"In that case, then Xun Yu will answer on behalf of my lord,"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Please Zhongzhi go back and reply to Yuan Benchu. General Xuangan fought hard all the way from Luoyang to Youzhou. The loss of troops is a bit serious. It will take a month to prepare. After one month, General Xuangan will personally lead the battle." Great army, go to help the battle, if the two armies attack, Gongsun Zan will undoubtedly be defeated! After this is done, Yuan Benchu ​​will have to recommend my lord as the prefect of Danyang and Marquis of Hanchang Ting. Xuzhou stabilize the situation!"

Yue Fei and the others frowned slightly. This matter can only be done with the Lord's nod. How could Mr. Xun agree directly?And the lord didn't say a word, let Mr. Wen Ruo decide, what's the reason?

Xin Ping laughed and said, "It's easy. Yuan Benchu ​​will offer the prefect of a county in Danyang with both hands. Five thousand elite soldiers will be lent to General Xuangan!"

After seeing off Xin Ping, Liu Xiao and Xun Yu returned to the camp.

Xu Huang said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wen Ruo, you must know that there are thousands of people in the family, and the lord is one person. The lord has never spoken. If you agree like this, isn't it against the etiquette of a minister?"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "I knew that Gongming had asked this question, but did you really get Yuan Shao's approval for what Xin Ping said? Do you really think that Yuan Shao is willing to give the position of prefect of a county to the lord? "

"When a gentleman says something, it's hard to chase after a horse. Yuan Benchu's reputation is so good, how can he go back on his word?"

Xu Huang asked suspiciously.

Xun Yu shook his head and replied, "Gongming, what is the explanation for Yuan Shao's meeting with Gongsun Zan to attack Han Fu and carve up Jizhou? Could it be that Yuan Shao's letter was fake? What happened? Occupying Jizhou, turning his face and denying his account, and taking Jizhou as his own, isn’t this going back on his word? The general is proficient in military affairs and has the style of a famous general, but he is not good enough for tactics. I just want to destroy Gongsun Zan, once Gongsun Zan is defeated and Yuan Shao is powerful, we only have a few thousand troops, and we are right in front of Yuan Shao, so don't we let him manipulate us?"

"Since that's the case, then we can't allow Xin Ping to attack Gongsun Zan. Under the overthrow of the nest, there will be no eggs?"

Xu Huang said anxiously.

Liu Xiao smiled and said: "Gongming, this is just Mr. Wen Ruo's plan to stabilize the army. First, appease Yuan Shao's heart, and let Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan fight to the death first. Send troops. Of course, we will send troops. However, when the time comes, Whether you want to attack Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zan, we have the final say. When the two armies are fighting, we are the key. Whoever we help can take advantage of it!"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "That's right, one month's time is not for us to gain time to train and reorganize the army, but to wait for the imperial court's order. Compared with the imperial court's order, we will arrive soon. As long as we get the imperial court's appointed order, we will send troops first." Qiao, with the help of Gongsun Zan, defeated Yuan Shao, frustrated Yuan Shao's strength, forced him to retreat to Jizhou, maintained the military balance in the north, and even went straight to Beihai County by way, otherwise, you thought Yuan Shao would make it easy for us Song rushing from Youzhou to Qingzhou? Jizhou in the middle is all Yuan Shao’s territory, he won’t let it pass, unless we have wings, otherwise, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky!”

In a word, by weakening the strength of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao to the greatest extent, coupled with the slightly weaker Cao Cao, the three major forces in the northern region can maintain a balance, so that Liu Xiao can slowly develop in Qingzhou's territory. It is not good for Liu Xiao, after all, Liu Xiao's foundation is too weak, just like Liu Bei, without foundation, it is not easy to gain a foothold among the heroes?People don't give you a chance to gain a foothold at all, what can you do?
If it hadn't been for Zhuge Liang's sudden birth, no matter how ambitious Liu Bei was, he could still only become a homeless dog, wandering around.

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "In this way, Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan will occupy Youzhou, Yuan Shao will occupy Jizhou, Cao Cao will occupy Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and we will occupy Qingzhou. Your calculations are quite shrewd."

"Ha ha……"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Didn't my lord also think of this? The so-called heroes see the same thing. My lord, as long as Yuan Shao loses, great things can be expected!"
