Chapter 2060 old minister and young master
Xun Yu shook his sleeves, climbed up the steps, lowered his head and walked quickly.
Hearing Xun Yu's voice, Fu Wan walked out of it, smiled and bowed, and was greeting Xun Yu. Seeing Xun Yu, who had always been gentle, was startled and swallowed the words to his mouth. He secretly glanced at Wei Ji, and Wei Ji shook his head with a wry smile. Seeing this, Fu Wan didn't dare to say anything. He watched Xun Yu enter the door like an angry tiger, shrank his neck, and turned around and left.
Xun Yu entered the public hall. The moment he turned around, he saw Fu Wan's hurried back through the window. Then he remembered Fu Wan's affairs. He was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. He had to consider how to deal with Fu Wan, but he didn't expect that Fu Wan would lose his composure for a while. Fu Wan actually left by himself, which saved a lot of talk.
It seems that people should still be a little sharp and not be too easy to talk to. Xun Yu snorted, paced back and forth twice, and said to Wei Ji: "Boru, go to see Situ's Mansion, ask about the spring farming situation in Guanzhong this year, and ask about the specific data, and then check the rain since the beginning of summer this year, and estimate the harvest this year."
Wei Ji responded, but did not leave. Xun Yu looked at him. "Boru thought it was not possible?"
Wei Ji smiled bitterly. "Make the lord to be steady in his work. Your Majesty asked him to do things in Guanzhong. Ji should not comment on it, but the situation is like this. There is a risk of changing his surname in the world. Your Majesty is not afraid of hard work and personally robs the enemy. It seems that the lord is not suitable to control himself."
Xun Yu's eyes shrank slightly. "Boru also agrees with Wuqiu Xing's plan?"
Wei Ji bowed and bowed again. "If Jia Xu's analysis of the situation is true, it seems that this is the only way."
Xun Yu stared at Wei Ji for a while, and suddenly felt that his shoulders were extremely heavy. He understood why Wei Ji said this. Both Yu and private, Wei Ji had no good feelings for Sun Ce. The Wei family is a large Hedong clan, with hundreds of hectares of fertile fields and occupied some mountains, forests and salt ponds. Of course, he was unwilling to give up these interests. Because of Cai Yan's affairs, the Wei family was humiliated by Sun Ce in person, and it was not a pleasant thing to make Wei Ji surrender to Sun Ce.
Others may not be as firm as Wei Ji, but their situation is not far from each other. After the emperor took Hedong and Bingzhou from Jia Xu, he recruited a large number of children from aristocratic families into the court. On the one hand, he competed with the Liangzhou clan, and on the other hand, he also appeased the aristocratic families in Hedong and Bingzhou and obtained their support. These people had formed a force in the court and were difficult to convince in words.
If it could be convinced, Yang Xiu would have convinced them long ago.
"Boru, do you think you can win by fighting hard?" Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief, making himself look less excited as much as possible.
"This is hard to say." Wei Ji shook his head slowly, with a modest tone, but his expression was very firm. "If the king and his ministers are united and have the proper planning, there may not be no chance of a battle. Even if they are unable to win, they are more than enough to defend themselves. Why should the Lord increase the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige? Your Majesty trusts the Lord, and will not be confused, but if someone slanders the Lord in front of His Majesty and carves off the charges, it will make Your Majesty difficult to deal with."
Xun Yu pondered for a moment and nodded. "Even if you want to fight, you should know yourself and your enemy, and see if you have the strength to fight. You should check the relevant data first and see how much potential there is in Guanzhong. If it really doesn't work, you have to recruit it from Bingzhou and Hedong and Henei." He smiled a little. "Boru, the three rivers are prosperous, and the Wei family is a Hedong clan. How many soldiers do you think Hedong can conquer?"
Wei Ji twitched his cheeks and said in a voice: "Although Hedong is the capital, it is connected with Bingzhou. The people are so upright. As long as Your Majesty has an imperial edict, he should do his best. A man carries a halberd and a woman transports food. It is better to break jade than a tiled."
Xun Yu nodded and said nothing. Wei Ji's words already meant to accuse Ru Ying people of not fighting with Sun Ce to the end. They had prejudice first and were useless to fight. He just felt a pity that Wei Ji thought he was righteous and ruthless, but he didn't know that this was probably what Sun Ce expected. The aristocratic family refused to surrender to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce did not intend to give in to the aristocratic family, defeated the aristocratic family on the battlefield, and uprooted the aristocratic family so that there would be future troubles in the future. If not, Sun Ce would have been reluctant to take Yanzhou for a long time. If he made a little concession, the aristocratic family in Yanzhou would never rely on Yuan Tan, so it is difficult to get rid of the tiger now. Wei Ji was in a moment of impetuousness and would probably have to pay a heavy price in the future.
Li Ling Zhi Meng means people like Wei Ji.
Xun Yu waved his hand and signaled Wei Ji to do things. He sat down in front of the case, spread out the paper and pen, and carefully looked at the Jia Xu memorial he received several times. The more he looked, the more complicated his mood became. Jia Xu not only saw through the dilemma of the emperor, but also saw through the greed of the aristocratic family and the stupidity caused by greed. He arranged for Xiao Qiu Xing to see the emperor, which was probably intentional.
Wuqiu Xing is also from Hedong, and he is young and energetic. When he wants to make achievements, how could he advise the emperor to endure, abdicate, and seek wealth and honor in danger? If he can win by surprise and win Nanyang, he can make a splash and rise to the top, but he doesn't know that all this is in Jia Xu's plan.
This Jia Wenhe is such a poisonous snake.
Xun Yu sighed for a long time, picked up his pen and wrote it on paper.
I am: I missed Your Majesty’s edict, and saw that the three strategies of the former Bingzhou Governor Xu were introduced. I thought that they were all old-fashioned plans, but I had some unclear things and wanted to overthrow your Majesty. The way to use military forces is to be invincible first, then to be able to win. The invincible lies in me, and the enemy. The battle for victory is in food. Since the beginning of the summer, there have been frequent rains in Guanzhong, and the heroes join the army, and women and children are not able to farm, and it is inevitable that they will be poor. I always think about Your Majesty’s entrustment and feel ashamed to die.
The emperor let out a long sigh, put the six hundred miles of urgent documents he had just received on the case, supported the case with his elbow, and pinched his sore eyebrows with his fingers.
Although he was mentally prepared for Xun Yu's opposition, he was still surprised when he saw Xun Yu's memorial. The thick and magnificent versions were nearly 10,000 words, and Xun Yu wrote every word heavy, and he felt depressed. Guanzhong had rainy rain and insufficient autumn harvest. Huangfu Song was newly lost, and the country lost his heroes. He worked hard but failed, and his morale was depressed. Every reason for opposition was like a heavy blow, which broke his ambition to capture Nanyang and was in a mess.
But Xun Yu said so much, but he didn't say what to do. He said that Jia Xu's three strategies were successful, but he didn't say that he agreed with Xu's strategy, or that all three strategies could be done, but he couldn't take risks?
The sound of footsteps sounded outside the door, and Cao Pi walked in quickly and reported to the Grand Marshal Sun Rui to ask for a meeting. The emperor quickly got up and greeted him at the door. Not long after, Shi Sun Rui walked in, his face was haggard. Huangfu Song passed away, and Huangfu Jianshou took leave to go back to Chang'an to hold a funeral. All his responsibilities were transferred to Shi Sun Rui. Shi Sun Rui was so busy that he was dizzy these two days.
It was related to the morale of the army, and the emperor did not dare to neglect it. Huangfu Song had a great influence in the army. No matter whether he was a native of Liangzhou or not, he regarded this famous general who suppressed the Yellow Turbans as the god of the army. Even Dong Zhuo's old subordinates who had always hated him did not dare to show disrespect for him in public. Especially in the past two days, after several conflicts occurred one after another, Dong Yue simply issued a death order to block the camp and prevent soldiers from going out casually to avoid causing trouble.
"Thank you for your hard work in the Grand Marshal."
Shi Sun Rui bowed. "Your Majesty is so serious. This is my duty, so I dare not speak of hardship."
The emperor's general Sun Rui led his men to the table and ordered people to serve tea. Seeing Shi Sun Rui drinking a few sips of tea, eating two snacks, calming down a little, then asked about Shi Sun Rui's purpose. Before Shi Sun Rui could speak, he sighed first. "Your Majesty, you have no achievements in fighting for a long time. The soldiers missed their homesickness and were newly mourned. Many people want to go back to mourn and send Huangfu Taifu's last journey. It's better to do this and calculate the time, and you can still catch up with the autumn harvest."
The emperor's eyes flashed. "It's not a bad idea to go to the army, but Yuan Tan was trapped in Yanzhou. If there were no reinforcements, what would he do?"
Shi Sun Rui was also very confused. He understood that the emperor did not want to retreat, and Yuan Tan was just an excuse. Even if they didn't go to the army, they would not be able to save Yuan Tan. But he had to admit that if Yuan Tan was defeated, it would be a blessing for the court. "The situation is like this, so Yuan Tan can only temporarily give up Yanzhou and withdraw his main force back to Jizhou to defend. After the autumn harvest, Your Majesty will send good generals, either to Taihang or leave Wuguan to support Jizhou."
"The Taiwei thinks it is feasible to leave Wu Pass?"
Shi Sun Rui was amused and crying. He knew what the emperor wanted to hear, but he knew very well that even if Wu Qiuxing's plan was not a piece of paper, it would not be so easy to succeed. He originally refused, but in order to get the emperor to agree to the first place, he had to give in.
"Your Majesty, if Sun Ce mobilizes the main force to seize Jizhou, the chance of attacking Nanyang may be greater."
The emperor agreed and smiled rarely. With the support of Shi Sun Rui, he had a three-point chance of winning. "That's right, Hanoi must not leave troops, so as not to avoid Yuan Tan's thought the court was afraid of fighting and left him alone. Taiwei, I have a plan and want to discuss with Taiwei?"
"Please give your majesty the decree."
"The Taiwei led the infantry back to Guanzhong, and I led 10,000 elite cavalry to stay in Henei to see the situation in Shandong. If you can attack, you will hit him, and if you cannot attack, you will wait for him. In this way, even if Sun Ce got Yanzhou, he would not dare to cross the river easily, and Yuan Tan could also deal with the East with peace of mind."
Shi Sun Rui pondered for a long time. "Your Majesty's plan is feasible, but Your Majesty is responsible for the world's importance and should not be done lightly. It is better for Your Majesty to return to Guanzhong and stay in Hanoi."
The emperor shook his head. "I appreciate the care of the Taiwei, but Lu Bu and Liu Bei are not polite ministers. If I cannot subdue it, it is better for the Taiwei to return to Guanzhong. The Taiwei is nearly fifty years old, and I am afraid that I can't stand the fatigue of being sad and horse. After all, I am younger and harder. Taking this opportunity, I want to go to Bingzhou to see it. If the time comes, I might go to Jizhou to help."
Shi Sun Rui's expression changed drastically and he stood up. "Your Majesty, you must not. A son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall. You are a body of thousands of gold. How can you take such a risk? If you take a white dragon fish, it will be too late to regret it."
The emperor raised his hand and gently pressed down, indicating that Shi Sun Rui would be calm. "Taiwei, the leader of the battlefield is the leader of the cavalry, and the leader of the cavalry is the general. During the Western Expedition, I was already charging forward and knew the wonders of using cavalry. The Central Plains are different from Liangzhou, and the Jiangdong cavalry is not comparable to the Xianbei barbarians. Before the war, if you can see the advantages and disadvantages of the Jiangdong cavalry and familiarize yourself with the terrain of the Central Plains, it will be of great benefit to the war after the autumn. Even if it is a bit dangerous, be careful. When the Han Dynasty survives and falls, how can I sit down with my soldiers?"
