The group of four headed straight for the Prefecture Overseer's Mansion.
Looking at Man Chong riding his warhorse towards the city wall, Chen Xu frowned slightly.
The talents under him were really too few.
Now, Yu Jin was in charge of training, and Man Chong was in charge of city defense.
The rest were Chen Gong, Wang Yu, and Wang Gong…
This was really too shabby.
Not to mention Yuan Shao's four generations of three public, under the command of many soldiers and generals. Not only did they have Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but they also had the Four Court Pillars of Hebei and the Five Great Counselors.
He mentioned his current subordinate, the Governor of East County, Cao Cao.
Currently, Cao Cao had many good generals under him.
Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, and the others.
Unfortunately, these people were Cao Cao's family and could not be poached.
Wait a minute!
Speaking of which, after Cao Cao became the herdsman of Yanzhou, he had recruited many talents.
One of the five strategists, Cheng Yu, was from Yanzhou.
He looked at Wang Yu and said,""Wen Qing, in Yanzhou, is there a person called Cheng Yu?”
"Not bad!" Wang Yu nodded and said," When the old lord was hesitating between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, I recommended Cheng Yu to the old lord.
Cheng Yu was a man of strategy and foresight. We chose Yuan Shao because we listened to Cheng Yu's suggestion!
As expected! After that, Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan at the Battle of the World Bridge!”
"Oh? So there's such a thing." Liu Xu said curiously," If that's the case, then this Cheng Yu is really quite far-sighted.”
"Unfortunately, the old lord originally wanted to make Cheng Yu a cavalry commandant, but Cheng Yu was ill and declined the position!”
As Wang Yu spoke, he let out a long sigh. His tone was full of pity."I wonder if Cheng Yu's illness is better…"
Liu Xu's lips curled into a smile.
Liu Xu's fingers tapped lightly on the table as he pondered.
He had not expected that his cheap father would actually recruit Cheng Yu.
However, Cheng Yu didn't answer the call.
This was interesting!
Did Cheng Yu think that his cheap father had no future, or did he already have his eyes on Cao Cao?
As for whether Cheng Yu was really sick?
Of course, Liu Xu would not believe this.
This was just Cheng Yu's little trick to fool people!
But what made him speechless was that Wang Yu and the others really believed him!
"Wen Qing, do you know where Cheng Yu is now?" Liu Xu smiled faintly.”
"My lord, Cheng Yu's home is in Dong'e County, and he's currently recuperating at home.”Wang Yu reported.
"That's good!" Liu Xu heaved a sigh of relief.
Since Cheng Yu has not followed Cao Cao, then come into my bowl!
However, he remembered that Cheng Yu only joined Cao Cao after he became the herdsman of Yanzhou.
Perhaps Cao Cao, who was only the prefect of East County, was not worthy of Cheng Yu seeking refuge.
"Wen Qing, pass on my order to recruit Cheng Yu as a Cavalry Commandant!”
Wang Yu hesitated." My lord, Cheng Yu is sick now. I'm afraid he won't come."”
"No worries!" Liu Xu waved his hand, and a playful smile appeared on his face." If you have a baby, I can ask the best doctor in Yanzhou to treat it.
Thinking about it, with Cheng Yu's ability, he shouldn't be so unwise!”
Hearing this, Wang Yu was slightly stunned.
He didn't quite understand what Liu Xu was saying.
However, since his lord had made the decision, he would obey.
Chen Gong kept looking at Liu Xu.
Seeing Liu Xu settle Cheng Yu's matter with just a few words, he could not help but feel emotional.
He naturally knew about Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu, the word Zhongde. He had always been known for his intelligence. It could be said that in some aspects, he was inferior to him!
However, such a great talent was actually being held tightly by Liu Xu!
As for why Liu Xu was so sure that Cheng Yu would come, Chen Gong knew very well.
Because if Cheng Yu did not answer the call, Liu Xu would use force to kidnap Cheng Yu!
Cheng Yu wasn't the only one who knew about this. Even Liu Xu believed that Cheng Yu knew about this as well!
Looking at Wang Yu's performance, Liu Xu sighed in his heart.
Although Wang Yu was loyal, his ability was lacking.
However, if Wang Yu was only asked to handle some complicated affairs, it would not be a problem!
He turned to look at Chen Gong. Seeing the thoughtful expression on Chen Gong's face, he felt much better.
If Cheng Yu was included, he would have two top strategists under him.
This was a good start.
He just hoped that Cheng Yu would be able to do something practical.
……
Yanzhou, Dong'e County.
An eight-foot-tall man with a beard was pacing back and forth in the room.
He was Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu was one of the five strategists under Cao Cao at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
But now, he was still idling at home.
Previously, he had seen that Liu Dai had no foresight, so he had resolutely declined the position of commandant and returned to his hometown.
He had just heard the news that Liu Xu had defeated the Yellow Turban thieves.
He stood there in a daze for a long time before he let out a long sigh.
"Master, you're usually calm and collected. You've never been so anxious before," the butler asked curiously. What's wrong with you today?"
Cheng Yu was stunned.
He turned around and sat down. Then, he sighed and said,"Forget it! Since this Liu Xu is so brave and decisive, if I don't go, I'm afraid he will kidnap me and bring me to Changyi.
I might as well go and take a look. If it's worth assisting, I'll help!”
He turned to the butler and said,""Tell them to pack up. We'll leave Dong 'e in three days at the latest.”
"Ah?" The butler was a little confused." Master, what do you mean? Where are we moving to?"
"Changyi." Cheng Yu smiled faintly.
At this moment, he had once again recovered his usual calmness, and he had an expression of having everything under control.
At this moment, a servant rushed in.
"Master, there are…soldiers outside!" he reported to Cheng Yu.”
"Oh?" The calm expression on Cheng Yu's face disappeared and was replaced by astonishment." They actually came so quickly?"”
