Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 447: Xu You’s suggestions

"Zhao Long, calling himself the animal husband of Jizhou, stationed troops in Yecheng, preparing to go north to Changshan to fight the Huma of Bingzhou."

"Report, there is a man claiming to be Xu Ziyuan who wants to enter the city."

Zhou Yafu was discussing with Du Ruhui to attack Yecheng, and the soldiers defending the city reported to Zhou Yafu.

"Xu Ziyuan? Could it be Xu You?"

Zhou Yafu remembered that Yuan Shao's counselor had offended his lord.

Whether or not to take him in is still a question.

Du Ruhui thought for a while and said to Zhou Yafu: "If the lord is present, in order to get Jizhou, unless he has a deep hatred with Xu You, he will definitely take him. The general can open the city gate."

Zhou Yafu listened to Du Ruhui's analysis, so he waved: "Bring Xu You to see me."

Soon a strategist was brought over by the soldiers, and he adjusted his clothes: "The ferry has been occupied by your soldiers and horses from Yanzhou. I want to go south. Please make it convenient for me and my family to return to the hometown of Nanyang."

Du Ruhui stared at Xu You: "Xu Ziyuan is a great talent, how could he be willing to live in seclusion in his hometown of Nanyang? Now that the world is in chaos and many heroes are rising together, could it be that Xu Ziyuan is unwilling to make a career?"

Xu You said: "Yuan Benchu ​​had a bad relationship with his subordinates, and he was defeated and captured. Now Zhao Long advocates Jizhou and reuses the Hebei family. I am a Nanyang native, and I am excluded, I am afraid I will not be taken seriously. I have lost my mind and want to live in seclusion in the countryside. ."

Du Ruhui still stared at Xu You with a half-smile, his eyes seemed to see through Xu You's inner thoughts, Xu You couldn't help being surprised.

Du Ruhui, as one of the two great advisors of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, is probably more capable than Tian Feng and Ju Shou. Xu You's simple prevarication could not hide Du Ruhui at all.

Du Ruhui's current intelligence has reached 96, and it is not difficult to see through Xu You's thoughts.

"Don't try to lie to me, Ziyuan, presumably Ziyuan already has the intention of taking refuge in the new master, so he went south."

Du Ruhui's eyes let Xu You know that there is no need to detour. Du Ruhui is one of Chutian's important advisers and cannot hide anything from his eyes.

Xu You replied: "I and Cao Ahuo are old friends, and I plan to rely on him to make a living."

"Cao Mengde is now serving as a general under the commander of Yanzhou Mu, Ziyuan is better to go directly to Yanzhou Mu instead of relying on Cao Mengde, and he will still be the mastermind in the future."

"Yanzhou Shepherd and I have a gap, and they reuse the Xuzhou family, how can they use me?"

"Yanzhou Shepherd has the world in mind, and if he has no tolerance, wouldn't Qingzhou Master Zhao and Yanzhou Cao Mengde all die for Yanzhou Shepherd? Cheng Yu and Man Chong, from Yanzhou aristocratic families, are not biased in the management of Yanzhou. Please don't doubt it."

Du Ruhui's words opened Xu You's heart.

He and Chutian do not seem to have an inextricable hatred. They used to be their masters and aimed at each other. As long as Chutian can tolerate him, they can still be reused.

As for Zhao Long, who reused the Hebei family, in order to clear the factional disputes within Yuan Shao as soon as possible, it seemed that he was too hasty, causing Xu You to flee.

In a sense, Xu You is also a talent, otherwise Yuan Shao would not be one of the masterminds.

"Where is the Yanzhou Shepherd?"

"We are attacking Yuzhou."

"It's a pity, it's a pity..."

Xu You can't help but say it's a pity.

Zhou Yafu asked, "Why is it a pity?"

Xu You replied: "Zhao Long was appointed the new animal husband of Jizhou, and he placed Yuan Benchu ​​under house arrest. He went north to compete with Huma. The hearts of the people are uncertain. If Yanzhou animal husbandry has already captured Yuzhou and sent 300,000 to 400,000 troops, then Jizhou will be within easy reach, and Hebei will be within reach."

Du Ruhui said: "Yuzhou is a serious trouble for the confidants, and the Jingzhou army is going north. If the lord leads the main force to cross the Yellow River and compete with the Hebei princes, the Central Plains will definitely be taken by the Yuzhou army and the Jingzhou army. "

Xu You shook his head: "This is the pity."

Suddenly, Xu You's eyes lit up: "Zhao Long gathers his troops and marches north, and there is bound to be a battle with Huma. Why didn't this general lead his troops to attack Yecheng, so that Zhao Long was attacked by the enemy?"

Zhou Yafu replied: "That is exactly what I meant, but unfortunately no one leads the way. Yecheng is the key point of Jizhou, and Handan is a corner of each other. If Yecheng is attacked, Handan will save it. If Handan is attacked, it is necessary to divide troops to surround Ye Otherwise, Ye City will be rescued. My troops are not strong enough to destroy both cities at the same time.”

Xu You paced anxiously.

If he decides to join Chutian, then he must make a contribution to gain Chutian's trust.

Du Ruhui is still like an old fox, smiling but not smiling, patiently waiting for Xu You to offer advice.

Du Ruhui has never been to Jizhou, and his knowledge of Jizhou is limited to intelligence. Xu You is different, he has been working hard in Jizhou with Yuan Shao for three years. As one of Yuan Shao's masterminds, Xu You not only has some abilities, but is also familiar with Jizhou's topographical features and sophistication. If Xu You proposes a strategy to attack Jizhou, it may be more practical than Du Ruhui.

"The general can try to attack Yecheng. The wheat in Jizhou is about to ripen, and the general is really unable to attack, so he can divide his troops to harvest the wheat and transport it back to Liyang. In this way, not only Liyang can get food and grass to defend, but also can make Ye The city and Zhao Long's army fell into the predicament of lack of food."

"Secondly, it can block the Qishui water, dig a canal so that it flows into the Baigou, and increase the water volume of the Baigou, so that large ships can transport military supplies from Yanzhou to Jizhou."

"Third, looting the population of surrounding villages and towns, increasing the number of Liyang, or migrating to the south of the Yellow River, this is called a plan of extinction."

"Fourth, if you send people to Montenegro to contact Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin army, and ask him to raise troops to respond, you will get 100,000 of the Montenegrin army to attack Yecheng, and the big thing can be accomplished."

"Five, order the scouts to spread the news in Yecheng, falsely claiming that Jizhou was defeated, and people must be panicked, or there may be traitors who offer the city and surrender."

Xu You still offered five strategies to Zhou Yafu when Zhou Yafu was inferior in strength.

Du Ruhui agreed with Xu You's five strategies, starved of food and households, attracted the Montenegrin army, disturbed the hearts of Yecheng, and built a canal to open up the waterway for transporting grain.

"Zi Yuan has made great contributions to his suggestions, and will definitely be reused by the Lord in the future."

In order to win over Xu You, who knew about Jizhou, Du Ruhui praised Xu You a little.

When Xu You saw that Chutian's advisors praised him so much, he secretly thought that Chu Zimou's advisors were nothing more than that.

Despite this thought, Xu You did not dare to be arrogant before he really captured Yecheng, but asked Zhou Yafu: "This general has always been silent, and does not know what Xu Ziyuan's plan is?"

Zhou Yafu pondered: "When Zhao Long leads his troops north, you can act accordingly."

"If the two of you listen to my good strategy, then great things will be accomplished, Jizhou can get it, and you will be reused by Yanzhou shepherds. Yuan Benchu ​​did not follow my strategy, which led to Zhao Long's great power. A big mistake."

At this time, Xu You couldn't help showing his superior skill.

Du Ru shook his head in the dark, Xu You can do things, but not people. In other words, Xu You is too arrogant, greedy, and has bad personal conduct.

However, after Chutian captured Yuzhou, the next step was to pacify Hebei, so Du Ruhui had to leave Xu You for Chutian, even if it was to temporarily satisfy Xu You's character flaws.

As for the capture of Yuzhou, after Xu You seems to be less important, let's see if Xu You can be a man...

Personal ability determines the lower limit, while character determines the upper limit.

Du Ruhui privately asked Zhou Yafu to treat Xu You as a staff member, and he was willing to serve as the second advisor of the defensive legion. At the same time, he divided some of the spoils into Xu You and his family to satisfy Xu You's desire for fame and fortune.

Xu You was very satisfied. When he escaped from Yecheng, he was robbed of a lot of property by the rebels. Du Ruhui's generosity made him extremely satisfied with Chutian's power and felt Chutian's sincerity.

In fact, this is just Du Ruhui's arbitrary decision.

Fang seeks to stop the decision, and Du Ruhui's decision-making ability is extremely strong.

In other words, even without Chutian's order, he can make judgments based on the situation, and even when it comes to personnel decisions, Du Ruhui's judgment is also accurate.

As soon as the current Xu You came to Liyang, he was stabilized by Du Ruhui, who believed that Chu Tian had already let go of his past suspicions and was thirsty for talents, and he, Xu You, was the talent that Chu Tian lacked.

Judging from the strategic purpose of taking Jizhou, Xu You is really a talent that Chutian must win.

"Liyang is located in Hebei, and the lord's army is located in Henan and Xuzhou. If Zhao Long defeats Huma and attacks Liyang in the south, Liyang may be captured at any time. Ziyuan's family should be sent to Yanzhou... No, in the future even if Yanzhou is also not safe. It is better to send it to Xuzhou to avoid war. Xuzhou has been free from war for many years.

Du Ruhui proposed to send Xu You's family to Xuzhou for refuge.

Although it is a refuge, it is more like a hostage.

At present, all of Cao Cao's clansmen live in Xiacheng and are under surveillance at the same time.

Xu You also knew this, but he was moved by Du Ruhui's series of actions, and it was not uncommon for him to be a hostage, so he agreed to send his family to Xuzhou, and Zhou Yafu sent a team to **** him. South crossing the Yellow River.

Du Ruhui watched Xu You's family leave, knowing that Xu You could only work for Chutian, otherwise he would lose his family.

Not only that, Du Ruhui also wrote a letter to Chu Tian, ​​proposing to grant Xu You a high-ranking official and generous salary.

Zhou Yafu began to prepare his troops to prepare for a surprise attack on Yecheng.

In Yecheng, Zhao Long led a team of civil servants and generals, looking in the direction of Li Yang.

Li Yang was occupied by Zhou Yafu and became a nail household in Hebei, leaving Zhao Long as stuck in his throat and hard to swallow.

"Liu Bei and Tian Qi agreed to send troops, but demanded that they gain more fiefs after defeating Huma. Otherwise, they would not send troops."

The ambassador Liu Bei and a minister from Tian Qi's forces returned to report to Zhao Long about the mission.

Zhao Long wandered, and finally made up his mind: "If I can defeat Huma, I can give Liu Bei Hejian Kingdom and Tian Qi Qinghe Kingdom. Let them have two fiefs of the county to recruit troops and horses. If they enter the Central Plains in the future , then they can be named king of different surnames, their current territory will be the future feudal kingdom, and they will never break their promises!”

In order to make up for the gap with Chu Tian as soon as possible, Zhao Long could only choose to compromise with Liu Bei and Tian Qi.

Liu Bei and Tian Qi may fall to Chutian, the only thing that can win them over is more fiefdoms. Although this approach is extremely dangerous, Zhao Long has to do it.

When they took refuge in Chutian, Chutian would not split the soil and seal the king. Any princes annexed by Chutian were basically famous and powerless. The only powerful Cao Cao was suppressed by Wei Qing.

Zhao Long, however, could tolerate Liu Bei and Tian Qi's self-respect.

This is the reason why Liu Bei and Tian Qi are still in his camp, because their territory is all in Hebei.

Chutian could not tolerate that there were feudal lords within his own power who had not fully surrendered to him.

This is the biggest difference between Zhao Long and Chu Tian.

Of course, Zhao Long also knew that his approach was quite dangerous. Once Liu Bei and Tian Qi betrayed him, he would be the next Yuan Shao or the next Yuan Shu.

Liu Bei could not be willing to be completely annexed by Chutian, so Zhao Long was not worried that Liu Bei would join Chutian on the premise of giving Liu Bei two prefectures and states.

The only variable is Tian Qi.

If Tian Qi is a Liu Bei-style character, he will stick to the last city. If he is a Zhang Lu-style character, then it is very likely that he will surrender immediately after Chutian's army arrives in Hebei.

It varies from person to person.

The two counties should be able to temporarily stabilize Tian Qi.

Zhao Long took back the lost territory from Yuan Shao and Huma.

As long as he maintains a dominant position in Hebei, he can command a few younger brothers.

Ju Shou said: "Xu Ziyuan belongs to an aristocratic family in Henan. If he disappears this time, it must be Chu Zimou who went to Henan. Thinking of this, Liyang's troops will definitely attack Yecheng."

Zhao Long nodded: "I have expected that this time, with Gao Jiong (the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty), Shen Pei and two people to defend the city, and then with Han Chuhu as the general, the city of Ye will be safe. Xu You betrays me and waits ~IndoMTL.com~ He was probably involved in the assassination of me, for fear of my guilt."

Zhao Long blamed Yuan Shao and Xu You for the assassination.

Xu You left without saying goodbye, Yuan Shao was placed under house arrest, and the Jizhou families all believed that Yuan Shao and Xu You planned to assassinate Zhao Long, the hero of Gao Zhenzhu. Xu You's departure confirmed this.

Therefore, Zhao Long actually won the favor of the Jizhou family, because Zhao Long eliminated the Henan family brought by Yuan Shao, and the Hebei family was the only one.

In Pingyuan, Liu Bei received Zhao Long's promise that after defeating Huma, he could obtain Hejian and Bohai, two prefectures, as shelters.

Liu Bei used a random recruitment order brought back from the national war to obtain a counselor, which was tied with Chen Xi, a foreign counselor.

Now Liu Bei's group of advisors and generals has begun to expand, and he is secretly accumulating strength.

"The general situation of the world is still uncertain, and what Chen Xi said is very true. The lord can secretly make friends with Jizhou scholars. With the lord's charm and courtesy, the scholars in Bohai and Hejian will follow the lord. Maybe Jizhou is not the lord. A place to stand.”

This is what the new advisor said to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei said curiously: "I was born in the north, I should take Jizhou and Youzhou as the most important thing, the world is big, where can I find a place for my Liu Xuande?"

The advisor said: "No. The lord has a lot of talented people and a hundred generals, but there is a lack of opportunities. You might as well secretly accumulate strength and make friends with the princes from all over the world. There are many tigers in the north, and the south is weak. If you can't stand in the north in the future, why not? Give it a try in the south? As long as the times turn around, the lord will surely achieve a great career.”

Liu Bei thought for a long time: "Jinglue said very much."
