Chapter 96 Great Han Xun Lingjun, Xun Wenruo!

Join Yuan Shao and attack Hanoi together?
Cao Cao's proposal surprised many civil and military officials living in the main hall of the Sikong Mansion.

They never thought that their lord would have such an idea of ​​"seeking the tiger's skin" to gain a rare benefit for themselves.

Although Hanoi County is located between Yuan Shao and the land they occupied in the Central Plains, in terms of actual land distribution, [-]% of Hanoi County's territory is north of the Yellow River.

At that time, even if they crossed the Yellow River and united with Yuan Shao to destroy Zhang Yang and obtained half of the land in Hanoi County, based on the military strength of Cao and Yuan, once Yuan Shao turned his face and refused to attack Cao Jun...

They may not be able to keep it.

Even if they can keep it, it is impossible for them to gather heavy troops to garrison north of the Yellow River because of half of Hanoi.

Because that would only stir up Yuan Shao's sensitive nerves and give him an excuse to go south and send troops to the Central Plains.

"My lord, is the decision you made hastily?"

"After repeated battles, the soldiers are exhausted. Although Zhang Yang's son has gradually become popular as you said, his father Zhang Yang has no great talent. He is not a hero in troubled times. He is nothing to worry about."

"As the end of the year approaches..."

"In Xun Yu's opinion, my lord, it is better to postpone the mobilization of troops, and then plan to mobilize troops in Hanoi in the spring of next year."

under the steps.

A handsome middle-aged man with a refined temperament and a beard grew out of the queue of civil servants.

Compared with Cao Cao in the main seat, the beauty of appearance is really a heaven, the other is like being run over by the wheels of a carriage.

"Wen Ruo!"

Cao Cao sighed softly, and looked at Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu, who was also his teacher and friend.

He thought that someone would come out to oppose his proposal, but he didn't expect that Xun Yu would be the first to stand up against his army.

Although Cao Cao was surprised by this, he had no dissatisfaction in his heart.

He understood that there was nothing wrong with Xun Yu's advice.

The cause of all these differences is not Xun Yu, but the problem lies with him, Cao Cao.

Somehow, Chuck always gave him an indescribable sense of threat, which made him feel stuck in his throat.

Cao Cao, who is suspicious and cautious by nature, hates this feeling.

Therefore, he didn't mind paying some price to nip this threat in the bud before Chuck returned to Hanoi occupied by his father Zhang Yang.

No matter what.

He couldn't say these words to Xun Yu.

Raising troops based on intuition and premonition sounds too scary to the ears of others.

but.

What Cao Cao didn't notice was...

When Xun Yu remonstrated with him, there was deep worry hidden in the depths of his eyes.

Cao Cao had just returned from the conquest of Xuzhou, so he may not have had a deep understanding of the undercurrents in Xuchang City, but when Cao Cao was busy fighting on the front lines, Xun Yu, who took charge of Xu Capital for him, felt like he was on the fire.

As the Han emperor in the palace continued to grow older, he is now 17 years old and is no longer satisfied with being Cao Cao's puppet.

Not only that, Xun Yu is not so worried.

What really disturbed Xun Yu were those uncles Dong Cheng who were getting closer to His Majesty the Son of Heaven, the minister Wang Zifu, Changshui Xiaowei Zhongji, Yilang Wu Shuo, General Zhaoxin Wu Zilan and others.

Although those people have no real power, they are a force that should not be underestimated.

At this turbulent time, Xun Yu did not want Cao Cao to lead the army again.

But if he, who has a heart for the Han Dynasty, told Cao Cao that these people...may be connected with the emperor, Xun Yu felt a little bit unbearable.

Under all kinds of contradictions, Xun Yu can only hope that Cao Cao will sit in Xuchang, hoping that with the help of Cao Cao's deterrence, those "royalists" will accept as soon as they are good, and settle down a bit.

Otherwise, if Uncle Guo Dong Cheng and others were allowed to continue with this momentum, Xun Yu didn't dare to think about the consequences in the future.

"I already know what Wen Ruo said."

"Feng Xiao, Zhong De, how about expressing your opinion?"

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and Xun You in the field. Xun Yu smiled wryly at this scene.

From Cao Cao's reaction, how could he not know that his lord had politely rejected his proposal, and was determined to send troops to Hanoi.

In desperation, Xun Yu had no choice but to look at Guo Jia and the three, hoping that the three would not easily agree with Cao Cao's ideas.

"My lord, I hope you think twice."

"Lv Bu led the southern expedition to Xuzhou, and Zhang Yang followed the northern expedition to Hanoi. After several conquests, what will Yuan Shao, the lord, think?"

"Yu concludes that even if Yuan Shao agrees to join you in attacking Hanoi, he's only making a show on the surface, and he won't send out a single soldier at all."

"If the lord insists on mobilizing troops, Yu suggests that the lord..."

"Instead of sending troops to Hanoi to arouse Yuan Shao's precautions and fears, it is better to directly destroy Yuan Shu who is entrenched in Huainan. Regarding this, although Yuan Shao does not like the actions of the lord on the surface, he should be happy to see the results in his heart."

Cao Cao: "..."

Regarding Cheng Yu's proposal, Cao Cao was speechless.

If he really wanted to destroy Yuan Shu, he would have wiped out Yuan Shu who was lingering in Huainan when he captured Xuzhou. How could he have survived until now?

Cao Cao waved his hand at Cheng Yu feebly, directly rejecting Cheng Yu's proposal.

Yuan Shu can move, but not right now.

Who knows if Yuan Benchu ​​would act out "brotherly love" when he attacked Yuan Shu?
Seeing that Cao Cao rejected his proposal, Cheng Yu was not annoyed, and walked back with a smile.

the reason is simple.

He never thought about letting his lord Cao Cao really go to conquer Yuan Shu, all he wanted was to dispel Cao Cao's idea of ​​going to Hanoi.

He who has never fought Chuck, is far less afraid of Chuck than Cao Cao.

"Feng Xiao, Gong Da, you guys also talk about it!"

The disapproval of sending troops to Hanoi by two advisers in succession made Cao Cao's expression a little ugly.

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia and Xun You looked at each other, and they both saw the bitter smile on the other's face.

This is what they feel in their hearts.

The lord was forcing them to express their views, and the two of them had no choice at all.

"My lord!" Guo Jia stepped forward.

"In Jia's opinion, Hanoi can be attacked!"

Guo Jia's remarks made Cao Cao slightly happy, and he nodded repeatedly: "Following filial piety, let's talk about it."

"Returning to my lord, Hanoi is only a county, and Zhang Yang has no wise generals, so there is no need for you to lead an army and work hard on an expedition."

"If you want to pacify Hanoi without arousing Yuan Shao's fear, my lord, you only need to send a general to Henan Yin and mobilize Henan Yinei's troops to attack Zhang Yang."

"At the same time, I also need you to write a letter to Yuan Shao. In the letter, you can promise that Yuan Shao will divide half of the territory after taking Hanoi. Hehe, you can take half of Hanoi without sending a single soldier. You value profit and cherish life." Yuan Shao will definitely agree."

Just as Guo Jia finished speaking, Xun You came out and said, "Report to my lord, and you agree with what Feng Xiao said."

"In addition, my lord can send an envoy to bribe Yuan Shao's Guo Tu with a lot of money!"

"With him speaking up for me, Hanoi can be settled."
