"Good news?"
"Ziyuan, in my opinion, it's more like a disaster!”
"Dong Zhuo's subordinates, not including the original Luoyang City guards…"
"Just the Western Liang Army under his command and the Bingzhou Army under his command add up to no less than 200,000!”
"According to Meng De's letter!"
"He wants me to be the initiator of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, but have you ever thought about why he didn't do such a good thing himself? Why should he give it to me?”
"If Dong Zhuo sends an army to attack us, how can we resist him?”
Yuan Shao didn't even use how to respond.
Instead, he used the word "resist".
The weak against the strong.
Resistance!
Without a doubt, Yuan Shao didn't have enough confidence to face Dong Zhuo.
"You!"
Yuan Shao shook his head gently at Xu You and said to Xu You in a friendly tone,""You only saw the benefits of me being the initiator of the alliance, but you didn't see the dangers!”
You and Yuantu are not outsiders!"
"I won't hide it from you…"
"I still have lingering fears when I recall the incident where I drew my sword and shouted at Dong Zhuo in the Imperial Court!”
In front of Xu You and Feng Ji, Yuan Shao's mouth revealed a deep self-deprecating smile.
"Unless necessary!"
"I really don't want to fight Dong Zhuo!”
When he said this.
Even Yuan Shao himself didn't realize it.
Unknowingly, he had already exposed his character flaw of doing great things and cherishing his own life.
However…
What surprised Yuan Shao was…
Even though he had made it clear, Xu You's expression remained unmoved.
"My lord!"
Xu You said.
He said to Yuan Shao with confidence,""You said…you were wondering why Meng De didn't do such a good thing and gave it to you?!!”
" But have you ever thought about the possibility that…"
Xu You smiled and said with certainty,"
"Meng De wanted to do it, but he wasn't qualified to do it!”
Hearing this, Yuan Shao was stunned.
He didn't understand what Xu You meant.
"Meng De wants to do it but is not qualified to do it?"
"Zi Yuan, what do you mean by this!"
"Meng De has just returned to Chen Liu from Luo Yang to assassinate Dong. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is famous all over the world!”
"These days…"
"Ignoring the evaluation of Meng De in the various states, I've heard many praises for Meng De's assassination of Dong Zhuo in the Bohai region alone!”
Seeing that his good friend and lord Yuan Shao had not realized the crux of the matter, Xu You let out a chuckle.
After that.
Under Yuan Shao's gaze…
"Fame!" he said slowly.
"My lord, you said that Meng De became famous after he assassinated Dong Zhuo.”
"But!"
"You're wrong about one thing!"
"No matter how famous you are, you are only famous.”
"Fame, fame, not only does it need fame, it also needs prestige!”
"As for Meng De!"
"Yan Ran is a famous but not prestigious person!”
"The word prestige, hehe, he, who was born as a eunuch, could not be worthy of it no matter what!”
"But you are different!"
"His family background is four generations and three dukes. The Yuan family's prestige is above the sea!”
"If you take the lead in raising an army to rebel against Dong, not only will all the counties in the world follow you, but even the Yuan family's officials will not stand by and watch!”
"Do you think Cao Mengde, a eunuch, can do this? Do they have such charisma?"
Although Xu You and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were young and good friends, they were still young.
However, in terms of their status.
Xu You looked down on Cao Cao.
Therefore.
When he mentioned Cao Cao and described him as the descendant of an eunuch, he did not feel burdened at all.
In fact…
Xu You couldn't help but think.
Was this Cao Cao deliberately trying to please Yuan Shao?
After all.
He looked at the contents of the letter. Cao Cao had helped Yuan Shao write the documents for the alliance to be announced to all the vassals in the world.
As for whether Cao Cao had a master by his side to guide his childhood friend?
Xu You didn't even think about it!
Just like how he did not even consider following Cao Cao, that eunuch's descendant.
Xu You also didn't think that there would be a talented person who would join Cao Cao!
Inexplicably.
Chunyu Qiong, who was a general under Yuan Shao and a good friend of him, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao, appeared in Xu You's mind.
Haha.
Even Chunyu Qiong, that brute whose brain was filled with muscles, knew that there was a better future for him to join Yuan Shao than to follow Cao Cao…
Cao Cao's current act of sending a letter to please Yuan Shao and asking him to be the initiator of the alliance did not seem to be strange!!!
Looking at Yuan Shao's hesitant expression…
Xu You hardened his heart and decided to add fuel to the fire.
"My lord, as for Dong Zhuo, after hearing that you have initiated the alliance, will he send troops to the Bohai Sea?”
"In your opinion…"
"You're worrying for nothing!"
As he spoke, Xu You pointed in the direction of Ye City.
"If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up!”
"If Dong Zhuo's army wants to reach Bohai Prefecture, it depends on whether Han Fu will let them go!”
"Dong Zhuo is ruthless, Han Fu will not easily yield to him.”
"In a battle between the two, Han Fu will definitely lose! At that time, you can stand out and gather the soldiers of Jizhou. You can raise the flag of resistance and take Jizhou!”
"Of course!"
"Compared to this disgraceful method!”
"You suggest that you leave only ten thousand troops to defend the Bohai Sea. Bring the remaining fifty thousand troops to the jujube tree immediately and form an alliance with the vassals!”
"Join the forces of the world to fight Dong Zhuo!"
"If I succeed…"
"At that time, your reputation will reach its peak, and there will be very few people in the world who can compare to you!”
"When the world mentions the number one person of the Yuan Clan, it will not be your uncle, the current Situ Yuan Kui, but you!”
"Hehe, it doesn't matter even if we fail to get rid of Dong!”
"By the time you return to the Bohai Sea, you, who once controlled the alliance of the vassals, will be able to easily plot against Jizhou!”
"Han Fu, whose reputation is not as good as yours, what qualifications does she have to sit firmly on the position of Ji Prefecture's herdsman?!!!”
"Maybe…"
Xu You smiled mysteriously.
" Before you march into Jizhou, those people who attended your banquet but didn't immediately pledge their allegiance…"
"They would be scrambling to persuade Han Fu to invite you to join Jizhou!”
Xu You analyzed.
Let's not evaluate whether what he said is correct or not.
However…
Yuan Shao had to admit that.
What his childhood friend Xu You said had indeed hit the nail on the head.
