Xun Mu's strategy shocked everyone.
Not only did it dispel Guan Yu's anger and Liu Bei's suspicion, but it also inadvertently made the image of a peerless expert stand in everyone's hearts.
Liu Bei was delighted.
He had originally planned to save Kong Rong, to repay Kong Rong's 'I heard that Liu Xuande is a hero of the world', and to use Kong Rong's circle to make a name for himself.
However, he never thought that…
He was actually so lucky!
Saving Kong Rong would earn him fame in Kong Rong's circle.
Kong Rong was a pedantic scholar.
But he was famous!
To attend a banquet and mention that " Liu Bei of the Plains once sent troops to save the North Sea " was much better than Liu Bei calling himself " the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, the great-great-grandson of His Excellency Han Jing "!
But now, Xun Mu's plan had enlightened Liu Bei.
Saving Kong Rong didn't necessarily mean killing Guan Hai, the Yellow Turban!
As long as these 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers were allowed to retire, Kong Rong's crisis would be resolved.
Not only that.
He could also gain the favor of the Yellow Turban!
The Yellow Turban now was no longer as powerful as before.
However, there would still be Yellow Turbans of all sizes in each state and county.
Think about it.
When Guan Hai's 50,000 people returned to Donghai to live and work in peace.
If this news spread, wouldn't the Yellow Turbans in other places admire his reputation and want to join him?
Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, not just Guan Hai.
Outside Qingzhou, there were yellow turbans in Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou.
Although he was famous among the Yellow Turbans.
The other heroes were disdainful.
But Liu Bei thought highly of it!
The benefits of sending troops to save Xuzhou would be even greater!
He could gain the favor of Mi Zhu, Tao Qian, and even a portion of Xu Prefecture's aristocratic families!
This was the same benefit as saving Kong Rong!
In the future, if these people casually mentioned that " Liu Bei of the Plains once saved Xuzhou," he would become famous.
It was difficult!
He figured out the key.
Liu Bei was even more delighted.
If such a talented person can help me, Liu Bei, I will definitely treat you as a distinguished guest!”
Thinking of this…
Liu Bei immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Xun Mu!
It was just a normal courtesy.
Only those who were highly valued would bow deeply.
"Mister Xun is a great talent, Liu Bei admires him!”
"Now that the Han Dynasty is in decline and treacherous officials are stealing lives, I once vowed to uphold justice in the world, report to the country, and stabilize the people!”
"Even if the road ahead is bumpy and dangerous, I will not forget my ambition!”
"But my intelligence is shallow, and after a few years, my reputation is still weak.”
"If Mister does not despise me, Liu Bei, for being lowly, I am willing to treat Mister as a distinguished guest and listen to your teachings!”
Liu Bei's etiquette was solemn and his words were sincere.
Even the Northern Sea Commandant Zong Bao couldn't help but feel touched.
Although Zong Bao did not think highly of Liu Bei.
But Zong Bao was envious!
He envied Xun Mu for being invited with such a grand gift!
When Zong Yuan came to Beihai to be a commandant, he had used his connections and entrusted his uncle to give Kong Rong a recommendation letter.
Even so.
Before the former commandant Wu Anguo resigned, the clan member was only a subordinate officer under the commandant.
As for Kong Rong personally coming to invite him, Zong Bao could only think about it at night.
He licked his lips.
Zong Bao suddenly felt that the wine in the bottle was no longer fragrant!
Guan Yu was also shocked.
After following Liu Bei for so long, this was the first time he had seen Liu Bei treat a Confucian scholar with such courtesy.
However, Guan Yu had to admit it.
Xun Mu had pointed out a bright path for Liu Bei!
It was even to the extent that…
Guan Yu had a guess that Xun Mu had been waiting for Liu Bei here!
It was possible that Xun Mu was the one who planned for Guan Hai to besiege the North Sea to benefit Liu Bei!
"This person is really talented!"
Guan Yu's heart skipped a beat.
Putting aside the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, he followed Liu Bei's example and bowed deeply.
As Liu Bei's sworn brother.
Guan Yu was arrogant.
But Guan Yu knew who he had to respect!
"Even Guan Yu is willing to bow?”
Xun Mu was slightly surprised.
If it was Zhang Fei, it would be understandable for him to bow to Liu Bei.
But Guan Yu.
This was a well-known contempt for scholars.
Getting Guan Yu to treat a civilian with respect was as difficult as getting Zhang Fei to swear not to drink!
The clan member looked at Xun Mu with rapt attention.
He subconsciously wanted to know if this genius would agree to Liu Bei's invitation.
But Xun Mu had planned for so long, how could he not agree!
He had included the Yellow Turban Guan Hai, the North Sea Kong Rong, the East Sea Mi Zhu, the Xuzhou Tao Qian, and the Pingyuan Liu Bei into the chess game. Wasn't it to assist Liu Bei and become a strategist?
Immediately.
Xun Mu did not refuse. He stood up, left the table, and returned the greeting in one go.
Learn from Zhuge Liang and let Liu Bei visit the thatched cottage three times?
Xun Mu didn't need such a method to test his sincerity!
There was the Divination Heavenly Book.
Xun Mu could tell at a glance whether Liu Bei was sincere in inviting Xun Mu.
"Duke Xuande is a hero of the world. How can I, Xun Mu, not agree to such a generous gift?”
"Yingchuan, Xun Mu, and Xun Wenlue greet the lord!”
