The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 352 Nanyang Xu You
After the military agreement was agreed, all the generals of the Yellow Turban Army in the lobby also resigned one after another.

After Xu Anhe asked Liu Pi about the civilian and military settlements, he prepared to return to his office.

The captives of the Huns are now being sent to mines all over the country, and now the craftsmen in Bingzhou do not lack raw materials such as iron ore.

However, due to the size of the original workshop, it is still impossible to manufacture weapons and armor on a large scale. This problem must be solved by him.

But at this time, a Yingwei Qianhu wearing a red red eagle uniform walked out of the hall through a group of generals of the Yellow Turban Army and walked into the hall.

Seeing this, Xu An stopped in his tracks. It must be a more important thing to have an Eagle Guard Qianhu deliver the information in person.

"Meet the great virtuous teacher."

Although Yingwei Qianhu walked into the hall in a hurry, he did not forget the etiquette. He saluted Xu An first, and then handed the letter in his hand to Xu An with both hands.

Liu Pi, who was standing beside Xu An, took a step forward, took the letter from Yingwei Qianhu, and handed it to Xu An.

Xu An opened the letter, and Yan Zhong stood beside Xu An and read the contents of the letter with Xu An.

In general, Xu An never avoided Yan Zhong's intelligence about the Eagle Wolf Guard.

Xu An only checked the secret reports submitted by the Wolf Guard supervisory officials and generals.

Secret reports were usually delivered by Liu Pi or the emissary of the Wolf Guard in person at night.

Xu An was overjoyed, because the letter contained very good news for the Yellow Turban Army.

The letter delivered by Yingwei explained the recent events in Gaoyi.

Jizhou Mu Wangfen conspired to abolish the emperor, but the plot was revealed and was noticed by the embroidered clothes messenger.

Jian Shuo led the three battalions of forbidden troops, and personally went to Gaoyi to arrest Wang Fen and investigate the rebellion. Wang Fen knew that the matter had been exposed, and was terrified and committed suicide in fear of crime.

Then the soldiers around Changshan were mobilized, and the embroidered clothes messenger became more active.

Therefore, the Eagle Guard originally stationed in Changshan wanted to avoid the limelight, and when they were shrinking across the board, they encountered Wang Fen's accomplice who was being hunted down by the embroidered messenger.

The Eagle Guard stationed at Changshan successfully rescued Wang Fen's accomplices.

One's name is Xu You, and the other's name is Zhou Jing.

It was the two people who were rescued by Yingwei that made Xu An happy. To be precise, they were Xu You.

"This embroidered clothes messenger is a great talent sent to me..."

Xu An naturally received the report from the Eagle Wolf Guard long ago regarding the establishment of the Embroidered Cloth Messenger by the Han court.

The Embroidered Clothes Envoy set up by Han Ting was used to deal with his Eagle Wolf Guard, and the Eagle Wolf Guard had already had a lot of dealings with the Embroidered Cloth Envoy in secret.

The embroidered clothes envoy with the official support of the Han Empire became more and more powerful, which also made Xu An feel a lot of pressure.

The intelligence office set up by the Yinglang Guard in the Han area was repeatedly attacked by the embroidered clothes envoys. During this period of time, the news Xu An received from the Yinglang Guard was not very good.

But this time, the embroidered clothes messenger sent Xu An a big gift.

"Nanyang Xuyou? Peiguo Zhoujing?"

Yan Zhong looked at the letter Xu An held in his hand, and he also saw the names of Xu You and Zhou Jing.

"Does the military division have an impression?"

Xu An put down some letters and asked.

He is very familiar with Xu You. Anyone who has read the Three Kingdoms and the history of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty can remember Xu You.

The Battle of Guandu was a key battle that determined the northern hegemony in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao fought at Guandu.

In 199 A.D. (the fourth year of Jian'an), Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan, annexed Youzhou, occupied the land of four states, and had hundreds of thousands of people.
With Shen Pei and Feng Ji unifying the military, Xu You, Tian Feng, and Xun Chen were the masterminds, and Yan Liang and Wen Chou were the generals, preparing to attack Xu Du.

As the mastermind of Yuan Shao's forces, Xu Youneng's intelligence is naturally beyond doubt.

The turning point of the Battle of Guandu was the Battle of Burning Wuchao.

Yuan Shao refused to adopt Xu You's strategy. Instead, he was self-willed and wanted to defeat Cao Cao head-on, and capture Cao Cao to vent his hatred.

But not long ago, someone in Yecheng Xu You's family broke the law, and the judge who stayed in Yecheng arrested them.

Yuan Shao was furious and reprimanded Xu You.

Afterwards, jealousy arose, because Xu You and Cao Cao had an old relationship, and other thoughts arose in his heart.

In a fit of anger, Xu You turned to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao went out to meet him. Xu You was so moved that he offered Cao Cao a plan to burn Wuchao.

Cao Cao followed Xu You's strategy and selected elite soldiers to pretend to be Yuan Jun, with horses in the title, and the soldiers set out to Wuchao with firewood.

Cao Jun defeated Yuan Jun in Wuchao, burned all the food and grass, beheaded many generals of Yuan Jun, and captured Yuan Jun's general Chunyu Qiong.

After Wuchao fell, Zhang He and Gao Lan, who were attacking Cao Jun's camp, surrendered, and Yuan Shao's army collapsed since then.

The Battle of Guandu ended with Cao Cao's complete victory.

Yuan Shao's army was wiped out, and he fled back to Hebei with only [-] cavalry, and then he was even more devastated.

It's just Zhou Jing, but Xu An is not familiar with his life.

All I know is that Xu You once conspired with Jizhou Inspector Wang Fen to abolish the emperor, and wanted to abolish the emperor while Hanling Emperor Liu Hongbei was patrolling the old house of Hejian State.

Wang Fen wrote a letter saying that the Heishan bandits attacked and robbed counties and counties, so they could raise troops.

There is red air in the north, and the east and west compete with the sky. Tai Shi said, "When there is a conspiracy, it is not suitable to go north."

So Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, ordered Wang Fen to stop the army, and soon recruited him to Beijing.

Wang Fen thought that the matter had been revealed and was very frightened, so she committed suicide.

Zhou Jing's name is listed in this record along with Wang Fen and Xu You.

However, Xu An was not too clear about other things.

Hearing Yan Zhong muttering in a low voice, he asked Yan Zhong, if Zhou Jing was also a scribe this time, then he would have someone under his cover who could give advice.

The lack of counselors really made Xu An feel extremely uncomfortable. Whether in civil affairs or military affairs, the scarcity of counselors restricted the development of the Yellow Turban Army to a considerable extent.

When the Yellow Turban Army first occupied Shangdang County, the military was in full control, and Yan Zhong was the only one responsible for civil affairs.

It was fine when Yan Zhong was there, but sometimes, Xu An needed to formulate military strategies with Yan Zhong. At this time, Minzheng left Yan Zhong, and the piles piled up again in an instant, and Yan Zhong could only run at both ends.

Then with the expansion of the territory, it became more and more powerless.

Fortunately, the rebellion in Liangzhou intensified, and Yang Ji, Pang Bo, and Fu Qi came from their families, bringing a large number of talents who could read and write.

The first batch of talismans in Daotang was also cultivated, which finally solved the problem of civil affairs of the Yellow Turban Army.

It's just that there are still not many people who can advise Xu An in the direction of military strategy.

This time the military discussion was because Xu An and Yan Zhong had nothing to do with Dai and Shanggu counties, so they tried to consult other generals for their opinions.

"Xu You from Nanyang, I have met him before, but he is quite intelligent, and he is familiar with the art of war. He is talented in military strategy, but he is quite proud, and his words are often a bit harsh."

"As for Zhou Jing, I haven't seen it, but I have heard about it. He is a famous ranger in Yuzhou, and he was born in a powerful family in Peiguo."

"So it's just a ranger..."

Xu An shook his head, if it was just a ranger, it wouldn't be too much of an issue for him.

But with Xu You alone, Xu An was already very happy.

In the battle of Guandu, if Yuan Shao hadn't been indecisive, he would have forgotten his life at the sight of small gains.

As long as you listen to the advice of any one of Xu You, Tian Feng, and Ju Shou, you may be able to win this crucial battle.
