Chapter 467 Changes in Youzhou
In the eyes of Xu You and Guo Tu, Yuan Tan is the most important.

This made Yuan Shao especially unhappy.

I'm not dead yet, so you're making Yuan Tan your master?
But such words, he couldn't say it, he could only keep silent in his heart, pretending he couldn't hear it.

"Ziyuan, what's your opinion?"

Xu You sighed. "Youzhou is a place to raise horses, so don't lose it. Gongsun Zan is a mortal enemy, and you can't let it go. When the imperial court is still fledgling, use the power of thunder to defeat Gongsun Zan, take Youzhou completely, and relieve your worries."

"Speaking of worries, wouldn't Shangdang and Taiyuan be more dangerous?"

"Shangdang and Taiyuan have few soldiers and lack of cavalry. They are not yet able to attack. It is just harassment. After the emperor inspects Liangzhou, he will rebuild the pasture garden soon. Once there are enough horses, Shangdang and Taiyuan will attack. possible."

After Xu You finished speaking, he reminded emphatically: "My lord, there must be no mistakes in Youzhou."

Yuan Shao thought about it, and felt that what Xu You said was reasonable.The reason why Guan Yu was able to drive straight in and kill all the way to the vicinity of Yecheng, forcing him to retreat was precisely because of the superiority of cavalry.If it was a pawn, his speed would definitely not be so fast.

The little emperor first decided on Bingzhou, and then inspected Liangzhou. What he took a fancy to was the war horse resources in Bingzhou and Liangzhou.From the immediate point of view, Youzhou is the only horse breeding land he can control. Once he loses Youzhou, his cavalry will become water without a source and trees without roots, and it will be difficult to face the court's counterattack.

Emperor Guangwu pacified the world, relying on Youzhou Tuqi.

"Ziyuan's plan is very good, I'm afraid it will not be easy to defeat Gongsun Zan quickly." Yuan Shao was a little embarrassed. "Once the troops are under the fortification of the city, they will not return for a long time, and Yecheng will be attacked again, what can we do?"

Xu You was a little impatient, and his voice became louder. "If my lord doesn't go north, once Liu He and Xun You unite, it's not just Yecheng that will be in danger."

After being yelled at by Xu You, Yuan Shao's mood was even worse, his face was sullen, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Xu You also knew that he was rude, so he stopped talking, but he refused to apologize.He felt that Yuan Shao was getting more and more confused, not at all like the Yuan Shao he knew.When he was in Luoyang, Yuan Shao was so decisive, but now he hesitates and hesitates.

Is it necessary to think about such a simple thing for so long?

He really wanted to turn around and leave, leaving Yuan Shao to think slowly by himself.But he couldn't do that, the situation in Youzhou was too tense, and without Yuan Shao's main support, Yuan Tan wouldn't be able to last long.

This is a good opportunity for Yuan Tan to make contributions, and it cannot be ruined overnight.Guo Tu wrote to him because he could speak in private as an old friend, so that the people of Jizhou would not be in the way.

After a while, Yuan Shao calmed down and told Xu You the news he had just received.Yuan Shu was granted the title of Marquis of Anguo Township, Zhou Zhong was appointed as Yuzhou Shepherd, and the situation in the Central Plains was also very bad, so he had to be afraid.

Zhou Zhong is not Yuan Shu, his appeal is stronger, and the trial and assignment may not be able to hold the front line.

After Xu You heard it, she couldn't help but swear, and she didn't know who to scold.

But he still felt that Yuan Shao should go north first to completely deal with Gongsun Zan.Although Zhou Zhong can command Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce to fight, he is not a soldier after all, and Cao, Liu, and Sun have their own thoughts and may not be willing to go all out. There is no great danger for the time being.

But that's not the case in Youzhou. One more day's delay may cause immeasurable losses.If Liu He was forced to bow his head, Gongsun Zan would be freed, and Xun You would lead the Youhe cavalry south, the threat would not be comparable to that of Zhou Zhong and Cao Liusun.

Yuan Shao thought about it, and felt that what Xu You said was reasonable, so he decided to redeploy and head north first.

In order to prevent Liu He from wavering, Yuan Shao asked Xu You to be the vanguard and lead his troops to the north to show that he must overcome.

Xu You was overjoyed and took orders to leave.

"Think twice, general." Yan Rou persuaded again.

"What are you thinking about?" Liu He jumped into a rage, his eyes were red, and he waved his arms. "If I don't take revenge for killing my father, how can I stand between heaven and earth? Zigang, you don't need to persuade me. People have their own ambitions. I won't stop you from seeking wealth, and don't stop me from taking revenge on my father."

He pointed up. "Whoever does not allow me to take revenge is my enemy. Loyalty and filial piety cannot be balanced, even if it is a traitor, I will not hesitate."

Yan Rou smiled wryly, feeling that Liu He was crazy and unreasonable.

It's not that the Son of Heaven doesn't want you to take revenge, it's because you are incapable of taking revenge yourself.You did not hesitate to accept both the imperial court's Zhengbei Zhonglang general and Yuan Shao's support, but have you taken revenge?
No.

If you want to take revenge, there is only one way, to sever ties with Yuan Shao and ask the court for help.Xun You's tens of thousands of troops are just outside the Great Wall. As long as he is willing to join the battle, he will definitely be able to defeat Gongsun Zan.

You are hesitant now, and when Xun You gets in touch with Gongsun Zan and the court turns to support Gongsun Zan, you will have no hope.

The reasoning has been made very clear, but Liu He doesn't know what's stuck, so he just doesn't listen.

This made Yan Rou very worried, did Liu He have other thoughts and couldn't speak humanely to outsiders?

After thinking about it, the more Yan Rou thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible.He bid farewell to Liu He, and turned to look for Xian Yufu.

Xian Yufu was originally Liu Yu's job, he was Liu Yu's confidant, and he was also the backbone who advocated revenge against Gongsun Zan.He has a great influence on Liu He, definitely not comparable to Yan Rou.

Compared with Liu He, Xian Yufu is more representative of the attitude of Youzhou people.

After hearing the story of Yan Rou's westward journey, Xian Yufu didn't speak for a long time, and finally asked: "The emperor said, as long as Liu He and Yuan's father and son draw a clear line, won't he stop him from taking revenge?"

Yan Rou nodded vigorously.

"Then there's no need to hesitate." Assistant Commander Xian Yu stood up. "What we want to do is to avenge the Taifu, so we did not hesitate to reconcile with Yuan Shao. After two years of hard work, but failed, it can be seen that Yuan Shao has his appearance, but he is not. If this is the case, why bother to risk the enemy of the court?" Notoriety?"

Yan Rou felt a little regretful.He should have come to discuss with Xian Yufu as soon as he came, Xian Yufu was much more sober than Liu He.

Just as he was talking, Xian Yufu's younger brother Xian Yuyin walked in quickly.Seeing Yan Rou present, Xian Yu Yin was somewhat surprised, and greeted Yan Rou. "Zigang, I heard that you went to Liangzhou to meet the emperor?"

"Exactly."

"Who is the emperor? Can the big man really be rejuvenated?"

Yan Rou nodded. "Not only can the big man be rejuvenated, but he will also become stronger. Especially for people from border counties like you and me, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Really?" Xian Yuyin laughed dumbfounded, doubtful.

Xian Yufu interrupted their pleasantries and asked Xian Yuyin what's the matter.Only then did Xian Yuyin think of business, and he said quickly that he had just received the news that Yuan Shao's army was heading north, and that the striker Xu You's troops had arrived at Jumashui and could enter the country at any time.

Xian Yufu and Yan Rou exchanged a look, realizing the danger.

Obviously, Yuan Shao did not want Liu He to submit to the court.

Xian Yufu paced back and forth for two steps before making a decisive decision. "Zigang, you go to Tanhan Mountain immediately, to fight or not to fight, I ask Supervisor Xun to decide."
