Liu Bian looked at Xun You with interest.
Among the so-called "Cao Wei's five strategists", Xun Gongda could be ranked first in terms of tactical ability. He was famous for being an expert in war.
For a long period of time in history, he had played the role of Cao Cao's 'mastermind'.
At such a critical juncture, there was no reason to keep such an outstanding military talent in the residence.
Most importantly, anyone who knew a little about history knew that the Xun family had a deep relationship with the Liu Han royal family and was extremely loyal to the royal family.
Later, during the transition between Han and Wei, Cao Cao's greatest obstacle was not Liu Bei and Sun Quan, but a powerful force within the group.
The Xun family of Yingchuan.
To put it simply, even though Xun You belonged to the Consort Group, his true loyalty was to the Han Dynasty and he was trustworthy.
"Rise."
Liu Bian suppressed the excitement of seeing a famous person in history and remained calm on the surface.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xun You bowed respectfully. He was also excited.
Originally, he felt that his political career was over and felt a little wronged.
After all, although he strongly supported the killing of the Ten Attendants, he strongly opposed attacking the Imperial Palace.
However, the Yuan Brothers and Wu Kuang had gone too far, and everyone in the General's Residence had been implicated.
However, just as Xun You was feeling melancholic, Huan Dian suddenly ran over with the Emperor's orders.
The emperor's meaning was simple.
The royal family was about to fight Dong Zhuo, who had been identified as a traitor, and he had the opportunity to redeem himself as a military counselor!
At this moment, he heard His Majesty's voice.""Lieutenant General, bring me all the military reports we have collected so far.”
Huan Dian nodded and brought over a tray.
There were dozens of documents and letters stacked on the tray.
Liu Bian looked at Xun You and said,"I'll give you two minutes (according to the ancient 'hundred engravings,' one quarter is 14 minutes and 24 seconds) to gather all the information and come up with a plan to defeat the enemy."”
"Only two minutes?"
The ministers were stunned.
It was too difficult for him to make a plan in such a short period of time.
Just sorting out that pile of documents with complicated content was already a headache.
Could it be that His Majesty was deliberately trying to mess with him?
In fact, there were three reasons for Liu Bian to make such a harsh request.
First, time was really tight, and he really didn't have the time to figure it out.
Secondly, although he knew that Xun You was very powerful in history, he was still considered a young man. He might not have grown to such a terrifying extent, and his ability needed to be verified.
Thirdly, once Xun You passed the interview, not only would he be assured, he could also win the approval of the two generals, Gai Xun and Lu Zhi, making it easier for him to carry out his work as a military advisor.
The facts proved that Xun You had the ability to become a military advisor.
Before the hourglass had even finished flowing, he had already come up with a plan and confidently told it to everyone present.
After the speech, the ministers 'attitude towards Xun You gradually changed from distrust to admiration.
"The disciples of the Xun family are indeed extraordinary.”
Lu Zhi nodded.
"With this kid here, the army will have more confidence.”
Gai Xun was also full of admiration.
Liu Bian was a little embarrassed when he heard this." F * ck, so there's such a big loophole in my knowledge."”
Through Xun You's explanation, he began to realize that although he knew a lot about history, both he and the original owner of the body were more anxious about geographical knowledge.
For example, the Fufeng Prefecture where Huangfu Song was located. Liu Bian had thought that since it was the third auxiliary of the capital region, it must be very close to Luodu. However, he did not expect Youfufeng to be in modern Shaanxi.
Another example was Hanoi County. It sounded a little far away, but it was actually right next to Henan County where Rodu was located.
Fortunately, Huangfu Song's speed was extremely fast, and he had already observed Dong Zhuo's movements. Before the arrival of the messenger, he had already prepared to return to the Imperial City to protect the emperor, so he could arrive in time.
Due to a series of chaotic reasons, the troops under Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi, were currently out of town.
In short, the current situation did not deviate from the plan because of his miscalculation. It also avoided the possibility of chaos because of his blind command.
At the end of his explanation, Xun You said,""Although there are many soldiers in the Imperial City, with the limited time we have, we can only gather ten thousand soldiers. Even with the thirty thousand soldiers of the Left General, it will be difficult to resist Dong Zhuo's army.
"So if I may be so bold as to say that if I want to stop Dong Zhuo before the three warlords arrive, Your Majesty will have to personally lead the army.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of the officials who had been kind just a moment ago instantly changed.
"Xun Gongda, how dare you! He actually wants His Majesty to put himself in danger!"
"It's already dangerous for the Son of Heaven to leave the capital, let alone go into battle with the enemy.”
"This matter concerns the safety of the emperor.”
"Don't think that just because you have received the emperor's favor, you can speak without fear. Don't forget that you are now a criminal!”
……
All the ministers glared at Xun You. If they were not in front of the emperor, they would have cursed.
Empress Dowager He's eyes were cold and murderous.
Even Gai Xun and Lu Zhi could not help but frown.
There was indeed a reason for him to personally lead the army, but it was too dangerous!
Just as everyone was strongly opposed, a firm voice suddenly sounded.
"I agree with the emperor's personal expedition!"
