"I don't want Sister Li."
Xun Yu's brows were tightly knitted together. He looked like he could not understand it no matter what. He looked left and right a few times.
"You're so talented and far above me. Why are you at the bottom?”
Xu Zhen gritted his teeth and said,"I told you long ago that there was something wrong with that ranking!"”
Xun Yu's mouth twitched." No problem…"
"You definitely won't have a problem getting first place!" Xu Zhen immediately became anxious. F * ck, you're standing at the top of the rankings and telling me this. Doesn't your conscience hurt?
"Back to the main topic. Other than that, there are many internal conflicts that we don't know about, especially in the Yangzhou area. The people have yet to settle down. After experiencing several major wars, it is very likely that they will cross the river to Jiangdong to avoid another war.”
"Then, what do you think we should do?"
Xun Yu and Xun You both looked at Xu Zhen seriously. In that case, there were too many internal problems. If they were not handled well, it was very likely that they would encounter a conflict.
At this moment, everything was laid out in the open, making people feel their scalps go numb.
This was only what they had expected. If a real battle broke out, no one knew what would happen.
External threats and internal threats were bound to change rapidly. In addition, there would be people who would create momentum on the battlefield regardless of victory or defeat, so there would definitely be disasters at any time.
" Everyone, now is the time for you to speak freely." Xu Zhen glanced at the people on the Advisor Heaven List. Almost all of them were at the top. How could the dragons of the world not have any solutions?
In short, Xu Zhen was not a real strategist in this era, and he did not have 99 points of intelligence.
There were many strategies and strategies that he could not write at all. He could only pretend to be pretentious in some future conclusions.
However, daring to make a judgment was the most handsome.
" Outside the Pass, I have a method. Everyone, please listen to it." Xun Yu's expression turned solemn. He suddenly understood that Xu Zhen had analyzed the situation in the north and south so thoroughly.
This doesn't mean that he's afraid of fighting Yuan Shao, but rather, he's throwing out a brick to attract jade, so that we, the strategists at the forefront, can express our own opinions.
He had to eliminate these hidden dangers first.
This was the first battle.
Debate.
If it wasn't shocking, then the civil and military officials of the Han Dynasty would be shaken, and the morale of the army wouldn't be high.
How to face the enemy? A royal army had to be fearless and press forward.
Yuan Shao's denunciation was so beautiful that the soldiers and civilians of Jizhou were probably already agitated.
"Uncle, tell me."
Xun You looked at him curiously.
"This, the dukes outside the pass can be suppressed by one person.”
Xu Zhen immediately nodded." Yes, as expected of you. Xun Lingjun, you're talking about Zhong Yao, right?"”
"Not bad!"
Xun Yu nodded in agreement." Zhong Yao's prestige outside the Pass is no different from Yanzhou's prestige to the Prime Minister. The vassals outside the Pass, especially the remaining rebel generals Guo Si, respect him the most.”
"We only need to send them to Tianshui in the west of the pass. The west will be self-contained and there will be no chaos. They won't dare to touch Zhong Yao.”
Xu Zhen pointed at the large area outside the pass and said,""This can be solved."
"How is Liu Biao?"
"I'm sure he won't dare to move." Guo Jia immediately said.”
"Why?"
Everyone instantly looked at Guo Jia. Why did this person, who was about the same age as Xu Zhen, dare to boast shamelessly?
"Liu Biao of the Jing State entered the Jing State by himself back then and took back all the aristocratic families in the territory.”
"Do you know that he has today's prosperity because of the Huang, Cai, Kuai, Ling, and many other aristocratic families in the Jing State. They jointly elected him. This includes the complicated interests of the aristocratic families.”
"If we want to send troops to attack, we need these families to be united against a common enemy. But now, their interests have gradually grown, and they are unwilling to give up such interests to fight an unprecedented war.”
"I'm sure Liu Biao won't do anything.”
"Hmm…that makes sense."
Xu You and Cheng Yu were stunned. They suddenly felt that this young man seemed to be very knowledgeable.
Moreover, he knew the local people very well. After all, it was a matter of Jingzhou, but he could understand it quite thoroughly.
It was not simple either.
" Alright, this is Jing State. I'll interrupt." Xu Zhen raised his hand and suddenly said this, making people feel strange.
Why are you talking like that? It sounds a little unsanitary.
"Why don't we look at Wan City together with Jing Prefecture? If we can recover Wan City and use it as a barrier to the south, we can make Jing Prefecture untouchable.”
Xu Zhen said with certainty.
This was because that was what was thought in history. Furthermore, during the Guandu period, Zhang Xiu, who had surrendered for the second time, had actually participated in the war.
However, after participating in the battle, he was angered by Cao Pi's words and passed away.
He didn't know if it was because he was being dealt with secretly, or if he was really ashamed and angry.
In this life, without the incident in Wan City, Cao Cao would not have slept with someone else's aunt.
Bah, that might not be the case…
Xu Zhen suddenly felt bitter. What if this Wan City was like the imperial edict? If he didn't keep an eye on it, it would still happen. What should he do?
"En, Bowen is right. If we take down Wan City, we can truly rest easy.”
"This town already has a countermeasure. Let's look at Sun Ce.”
Xun You said," This person is extremely brave, but he can't mobilize the gentry. He has many conflicts with the local gentry families and has even slaughtered many of them.”
"I think we should ally with the local aristocrats and ambush them. If we can successfully assassinate Sun Ce, we can eliminate future troubles.”
"En, ambushing is always a good thing. Sneaking into River East and assassinating him so that Sun Ce has no time to launch a sneak attack is also a way to suppress him.”
"Finally…"
Everyone turned to look at Qingzhou. Lu Bu was still there, and he was known as the number one general in the world…
If they really started fighting, he would sneak attack again, which might become a variable.
"This person will definitely not have a good time in Qingzhou. It is difficult for Xu Prefecture to enter Qingzhou, but it is easy for Qingzhou to enter Xu Prefecture.”
" We might need to think about it for a long time. We need to think about it carefully," Cheng Yu, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said.
Xu Zhen rolled his eyes at him.
Old hooligan.
"It's really like listening to a word from you.”
"Ah, this!"
Cheng Yu was stunned. Why did he say that about him?
Isn't this mocking me?
Xun Yu looked conflicted." Zhongde, it's already come to this. Why are you still hiding a plan? If you have any thoughts, just say it."
Cheng Yu was urged to ask a few questions, then he sighed and said,"I think that with Lord Zang Ba on Mount Tai, he might be able to keep an eye on Lu Bu.”
"As long as Lu Bu makes a move, he can enter Qingzhou through Mount Tai via a small path. Soon, Lu Bu will be in trouble.”
"That makes sense."
"Look, aren't you saying it quite well? Usually, when I ask you to come up with a plan, you'll agree!”
"So annoying!"
"Don't second the motion next time. I beg you, let us second your motion!”
Cheng Yu instantly broke into a sweat and could only smile bitterly.
He was used to it...
The main thing was that many times, he could also think of the strategies that others said, but he was too lazy to be the first to say it.
Therefore, he would rather hide at the end and agree.
" Yes, that should be enough to solve the problem. Now, there's only one problem…" Xu Zhen's face darkened as he scanned the crowd.
"Strategy, how can we shake the court and raise the morale of the army? If there was such a theory, it could refute Chen Lin's declaration of murder.”
"That's right. I think I need to think about this carefully. I can't just say it…"
"It's difficult to make a decision. If we had thought of it earlier, would we have been so anxious?”
"What do you think, Bowen?"
Xun Yu looked at Xu Zhen.
For some reason, he felt that Xu Zhen might have a way.
"I do."
Xu Zhen stood up and walked a few steps, then…
He closed his eyes and started reciting…
It was really a recitation.
He didn't pause a single word, as if he was reciting scriptures.
"Shao has ten defeats and you have ten victories. Although Shao is strong, he can't do anything. Yuan Shao's etiquette is complicated and multi-instrument, and the public body is natural. This is the first way to win. Yuan Shao rebelled against the court, and you obeyed the court to lead the world. This is the second victory of righteousness. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the government failed to be lenient. Yuan Shao used leniency to remedy leniency, so he was not afraid. You used violence to correct him, and the upper and lower levels knew how to control him. This is the third advantage of governing the country. Yuan Shao is lenient on the outside but suspicious on the inside. He only trusts relatives and children. You are simple on the outside but smart on the inside. There is no doubt in employing people. Only those who are suitable for you, regardless of distance. This is the fourth advantage..."
After a series of recitations, there were actually ten wins and ten losses.
Furthermore, the whip was extremely precise and spoke the words that Xun Yu and Guo Jia had in their hearts.
Xu Zhen looked at Xun Yu and smiled.”
"Wonderful!"
"Good!" If you say this in the hall tomorrow, you will definitely be able to amaze the four of us, raise our morale, and strengthen the might of our Cao army!”
Xun Yu was stunned." Why am I the one saying it? Wasn't this plan…thought of by Bowen?”
Xu Zhen looked conflicted, as if he had eaten something bad. He waved his hands repeatedly." No, no, this thing is too much to lick. I can't say it out loud…"
"Uh, what do you mean, lick?"
I know what licking my lips means, but what does this have to do with licking?
" That's right. Disgusting. I can't blow it…"
Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed out loud," Oh hoho... Haha, Bo Wen is really straightforward. Since that's the case, let me do the preaching..."
Tonight, all the strategies were discussed by the various strategists before they told Cao Cao.
He analyzed the situation at Guandu in the future and counted all the rations.
Thus, he had gained quite a lot.
Especially Xu Zhen's theory of ten wins and ten losses, which made Guo Jia and Xun Yu feel a little strange, because these words simply spoke to the depths of their hearts.
To put it bluntly, if Xu Zhen didn't say anything, Guo Jia really wanted to say something.
The strategists only left late at night. As Xun You was Xun Yu's nephew, he could continue to stay in the mansion.
He stroked his beard and asked in a deep voice,""Uncle, the strategist behind Xu Zhen is so young, but he is also knowledgeable. Moreover, his accent is similar to ours. Are you a young man from Yingshui?"
Xun Yu laughed happily." That's Guo Fengxiao.”
"Ah?"
The feather fan in Xun You's hand fell to the ground, and his face was filled with shock.
"Who is it? Advisor, third on the Heaven Ranking, Guo Fengxiao?"
" That's right." Xun Yu nodded, his expression calm. He had already known about this matter and was already shocked.
In the beginning, Xi Zhicai had planned to make a bet with Xun Yu, betting whether Guo Jia would be loyal to Xu Zhen.
Xun Yu felt that it was impossible, but he did not expect…
Fortunately, he didn't take the bait. Otherwise, he would have lost a lot of money.
At this moment, Xun You's lips moved and his expression was blank.
He couldn't figure out what kind of talent the third on the Heaven Roll had to be able to sit in the position of a strategist in the court.
However, he followed Xu Zhen, who was at the bottom.
This Xu Zhen…should have a hidden talent that was unknown to the world.
Amazing.
……
Outside the mansion, in a carriage.
Xu Zhen closed his eyes to rest, thinking about the future situation. The current chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty and the chaotic warlords could be said to have changed too much because of his appearance.
However, the general trend did not change.
Then, the impact on Cao Cao would not be too deep.
At the same time, the question that Liu Xie asked him when he first saw him appeared in his mind.
Hope.
What was born in the darkness was hope.
Xu Zhen had never told anyone about this.
It was buried in his heart.
It could be said that the choice in the future was entirely up to him.
I should be a maverick and not be afraid of the mouths of the world.
In the end, he wouldn't end up like you.
The endless mouths of the world were also blades that could kill people's hearts…
"Lord."
Suddenly, Guo Jia's soft voice interrupted Xu Zhen's thoughts.
He opened his eyes and looked at the young man who was about the same age as him. He smiled.
"What is it?"
"What the lord said today is thought-provoking. Everything is in the lord's mind, it really makes Fengxiao dazzled…"
Guo Jia's eyes lit up, and his face was in high spirits.
"Haha, sweet talk." Xu Zhen couldn't help but chuckle. No wonder Cao Cao liked Guo Jia so much in history.
With such a handsome face and suave posture, he could still speak eloquently and use such unique words. To be able to flatter to such a level, he could only be said to be amazing.
" However, the Battle of Guandu is ready." Guo Jia leaned back in the carriage, rubbing his fingertips as he stared blankly." We might be guarding the old officials of the Han Dynasty, especially Dong Cheng and the other officials. The School Affairs Office has recently received news that many officials have used traveling caravans to secretly communicate with the north.”
"Mm, let them send letters. It's fine.”
Xu Zhen also closed his eyes, as if he was temporarily enjoying the moment when his mind went blank.
"Is there no need to consider these?"
"That's right. The war is imminent and everyone is in a panic. I'm afraid that only a few people think that the Prime Minister can win, let alone those officials.”
"Alright, then I'll ask Zhicai not to report this matter.”
"Yes, is there anything else?"
"Also…the arrows of the Snowy Dragon Cavalry have all been prepared. All the light cavalry have their own crossbows. As for the arrows, they are not sharp enough.”
"Grind it again."
"Also, the Lord's method of pouring steel has already made a breakthrough…I think it won't be long before I can forge Hundred Refined Armor and Hundred Refined Saber.”
"Really?" When Xu Zhen heard this, he immediately opened his eyes. After waiting for a long time, he finally got something!
He didn't know the method of pouring steel, but he knew the principles, so he could only rely on the craftsmen to study it.
After half a year of pushing, the hundreds of craftsmen in the camp were finally useful.
" I'm serious. I haven't had the time to tell you that the Hundred Refined Armor is being prepared for General Zilong's Divine Spear Battalion. It's the most important thing for him to guard the Imperial City…"
"Good, good!"
"Fengxiao, it looks like you can take revenge on Guo Tu, Yuan Shao, and the others for underestimating you in this battle at Guandu…" Xu Zhen smiled at Guo Jia.
" Yes." Guo Jia took a deep breath.
The grudges of the past, the oppression of Guo Tu's clansmen, should be settled at Guandu…
