Chapter 160 One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless one male and one female

Welcome the emperor to make the princes!
Then the problem is coming.

Today's emperor is in Chang'an, and Chang'an is thousands of miles away from Yanzhou, and there are so many passes, cities, and various clans involved in the middle.

Ying Tianzi, these three words are easy to say, but how can it be so easy to do?
Ten million steps back, even if Cao Cao led his troops to Chang'an, Li Jue and Guo Si of the Xiliang Army would not be able to pass that pass. Now that they control the government, how can they hand over the emperor to Cao Cao?
These are the problems that Xun Yu worries about...

This is why Xun Yu did not tell Cao Cao this strategic plan for a long time.

…To meet the emperor and make the princes, the vision is very beautiful and grand, but now it seems… After all, it is just a beautiful idea, and the operability is almost infinitely close to zero!
This point, from Xun Yu's eyes, Lu Yu saw it clearly and clearly.

"Xun Sima is still worried about the issue of 'welcoming the emperor'?" Lu Yu pointed out directly. "Indeed, from the point of view of the road and military strength, Yanzhou is too far away from Chang'an, not to mention...the land of Guanzhong is full of warlords, and the warlords of various groups will draw their swords if they disagree with each other. It is completely unreasonable. If we really want to go to Chang'an Welcome back the emperor, I am afraid that if the emperor does not welcome back, whether Mr. Cao can come back is a question!"

Speaking of this, Lu Yu thought of the complicated situation in Guanzhong.

There are also those tough names, Li Jue, Guo Si, Ma Teng, Han Sui, Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, Zhang Ji... none of them are fuel-efficient lamps!

Lu Yu really didn't think that with the steel of Long Xiaoying, he could pass through such a heavy hurdle.

only…

Lu Yu continued talking, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Xun Sima...if so, what if the emperor returns to Luoyang by himself? Then...except for Yuan Shao in Jizhou, Cao Gong in Yanzhou is the closest to Luoyang...It is only a few hundred miles from Chenliu County to Luoyang City, and the army can arrive in a few days ...and Cao Gong is very familiar with the road here... In this way, won't the emperor welcome him back?"

This…

Xun Yu's eyes froze, what Lu Yu said seemed to be correct, but after thinking about it carefully, the main premise of this sentence was wrong!

How could the emperor return to Luoyang by himself?
Will Li Jue and Guo Si let him go?

There are many checkpoints along the way, and the warlords of Guanzhong... Can he break through?
Where is Guanzhong?That is a land of martial arts, without strong fists, let alone return to the east, even if you take a small step, there are no bones left that may be eaten by others!
And this is also the biggest reason for Xun Yu's hesitation...

"Lu Gongcao, your idea is very good. If the emperor goes to Luoyang, we have a chance here, but... the premise is wrong. How can the emperor return to Luoyang? The situation in Guanzhong is complicated, and he may think of Chang'an The city has no chance!"

"There is a chance!" Lu Yu smiled slightly...

His eyeballs rolled, at this moment... In ancient books and documents, all the memories about the return of the emperor to the east came to mind.

In fact, when reading the story of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returning to the east, Lu Yu also thought it was quite ridiculous.

Chang'an City, the land of Guanzhong, there are so many great people there, and it's surprising that a powerless emperor and a group of ministers with a combined combat power of no more than 20 can slip back. Isn't this pure nonsense?
But in fact...

It is almost inevitable that the emperor can return to Luoyang in the east, and there are three reasons for this.

First, the rivalry between Li Jue and Guo Si;

Second, the land of Sansuke is experiencing a severe drought that is rare in a century, and the drought lasts for two years...

You know, this is different from the four-month drought in the Central Plains!
The two-year drought involved three years of crop failure. All the warlords attacked each other because of the drought, crop failure, and even competition for water sources.

How can anyone care about the Son of Heaven, pay attention to the Son of Heaven, or... the big guy can't support himself, who will support the Son of Heaven and a group of courtiers who are eating dry food? The Son of Heaven, the officials, and the court are a huge burden and burden where!

The third, and the most important one, was that there were huge differences within the Xiliang Army.

The emperor's uncle Dong Cheng, Xiliang's old department Yang Feng, Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang who is familiar with the terrain, and Han Siam, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army who surrendered to the emperor...they pulled out their teeth in a daze, and took back the emperor from the hands of Li Jue and Guo Si , Covered and escorted the emperor back to Luoyang City, of course, each of them also had their own ghosts, but... this is not important.

All in all, the Son of Heaven will set foot on his way back to the east after one year, and after two years, he will come back...

Lu Yu only needs to tell Xun Yu the news, and the rest... With Xun Yu's intelligence, he will naturally make comprehensive arrangements.

"Xun Sima has heard that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers?"

Lu Yu directly asked Xun Yu...

Xun Yu rolled his eyes, and subconsciously replied, "Could it be...a good girl doesn't marry a second husband?"

He answered it in rhyme... Don't tell me, this answer is quite fair.

"Haha..." Lu Yu laughed. "That's fine, but...my next sentence here is more appropriate than Xun Sima's."

Speaking of this, Lu Yu rolled his eyes and said the answer directly: "One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless one male and one female!"

ah... ah...

Xun Yu felt a little confused, what does this mean?

Does this have anything to do with the return of the Son of Heaven?

"Why did Lu Gongcao change the topic to Xiapi City in Xuzhou again? There are no two tigers in this mountain, isn't it Lu Bu and Liu Bei?"

"No no no!" Lu Yu shook his finger and quickly explained. "Xun Sima, don't be so rigid. The so-called everything can be 'one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers'. For example, let me ask Xun Sima, among the warlords in Chang'an City, who is the most powerful?"

Niubi?
Xun Yu understood the first half of the sentence, but the last word "beautiful"... didn't make sense...

Awesome, awesome?Cow... cattle, forced?What is forced?

Of course, Xun Yu would not understand that the so-called "forced" means "forced"!

"Cough cough..." Lu Yu coughed lightly, and realized that the words used this time were out of line, and immediately explained: "Xun Sima... awesome means powerful? I'm asking, who is the most powerful among the warlords in Chang'an City?"

After saying this, Xun Yu understood, and immediately replied, "Then they are Li Jue and Guo Si!"

Just as he blurted out these words, Xun Yu suddenly realized something.

and many more…

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, Li Jue, Guo Si... two... two people?
Phew... Xun Yu gasped.

Now, Xun Yu understood... It turned out that the so-called "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers" that Lu Yu reminded was not Liu Bei and Lu Bu in Xiapi City, but Li Jue and Guo Si.

If you go to taste like this?

Xun Yu pondered... How can this Chang'an City be in chaos!
Sometimes, human nature is like this. In times of adversity... good friends can go hand in hand, eat pickles with relish, and help each other...

But once it's successful, it's amazing, then... who will be the boss, who will be the second child, and who will listen to when making decisions?That's another story!

If we have to talk about it in detail, it is estimated that I can write a book.

Naturally, Li Jue and Guo Si were not spared either. This is due to the laws of history, and it is also the truth that Xun Yu can clearly understand from reading the sage books for so many years!

With two tigers fighting each other, Chang'an City will be in chaos sooner or later, and such a chaos...

The return of the emperor to the east is no longer hopeless!
Thinking along this line of thought... It seems that Xun Yu's idea of ​​"welcoming the emperor" is one step closer, a big step closer!

Of course, Lu Yu could see Xun Yu's appearance...

He has figured out the first layer.

In fact...the reason why Li Jue and Guo Si turned against each other is an interesting little story.

According to the timeline, first Li Jue was afraid of Fan Chou, who was also a general of Xiliang, so he killed him... In this case, the relationship between Li Jue and Guo Si is not bad.

Li Jue even often went to drink with Guo Bang, and even gave Guo Bang some concubines, trying to satisfy his physical freshness and needs!

Logically speaking, Li Jue is interesting enough...

He doesn't even use these beautiful concubines, they are reserved for his brothers, full of brotherhood.

But... that's where the problem lies. Li Jue gave Guo Si a concubine every day, which offended a woman, that's right... it was Guo Si's wife!

She's scared, actually... It's easy to understand, if a man gives his husband a woman every day, any woman would get mad, worried about her status, worried that she would fall out of favor one day, and would hate that man!
So... happy to hear it, Guo Bang's wife started to sow discord, and kept blowing Guo Bang's pillow, saying that Li Jue wanted to kill him!

At first, Guo Si didn't feel anything, but he couldn't help talking too much. The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, and when he thought of how Li Jue didn't blink his eyes when he killed their good brother Fan Chou, Guo Si was terrified...

It was from here that the two began to be at loggerheads.

Li Jue held the Son of Heaven hostage, Guo Si held all officials hostage, and the two sides fought dozens of battles...the entire Guanzhong was in flames.

Sure enough, apart from money, the only thing that can turn a man against him is a woman!
These stories came to Lu Yu's mind one by one...

Of course, there is no need to explain these things to Xun Yu, just let him realize that Chang'an will be in chaos.

"Cough cough..."

With a light cough, Lu Yu continued to speak. "Xun Sima, just now I said that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers is one of them. To tell you the truth, I have continued to speculate using the five qi and eight luck, yin-yang and five elements..."

Well…

As soon as these words were mentioned, Xun Yu cheered up.

"Did Lu Gongcao deduce it? When did it rain in Yanzhou and Xuzhou?"

"Mid-August." Lu Yu blurted out, this is written in the book, very accurate... But, this is not what he wants to express. "Xun Sima, what I want to say is not this..."

"That's it?" Xun Yu squinted his eyes, and he muttered in his heart, did Lu Yu figure out some disaster again?
"It's the place of Sansuke!" Lu Yu blurted out. "I figured out that this drought will last for four months on our side, that is, it will only rain in August, but it will be miserable in Sansuke. Chang'an will suffer from drought for two years, and the next three years will The crops will all fail...and this is an inevitable condition for the emperor to return to the east!"

Huo... Sansuke's land, two years of drought, three years of no harvest!
Xun Yu's eyes widened suddenly, and his mouth also opened, which grew very big. This shock was enough to stuff an egg into it.

It stands to reason that Xun Yu is a talented person who admires the Confucian school. Is it strange that he would believe the predictions of the Onmyoji school?
But... the pearls and jades come first!

Right now, it is obviously rainy in March, and Lu Yu said that there was a drought in April... There was not a drop of rain in the whole April. Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that the severe drought in April in the Central Plains and the no harvest in July that Lu Yu deduced are true. of!

And if we push it further, the two-year drought in Sansuke and three years of no harvest in Sansuke that Lu Yu boldly deduced... It is very likely that it will come true!
After a brief moment of surprise, Xun Yu's eyes suddenly recovered, which... is very beneficial to them.

That's right... Guanzhong suffered a severe drought, and the grain harvest was completely wiped out!

The consequence of that is bound to be that various forces attack each other and compete for food and water.

Under such a situation, if the warlords themselves are in danger, who will take care of the emperor and the officials?
Who will manage the court?
Under this kind of opportunity, if there are pro-Han courtiers uniting with some warlords, it is very likely to help the emperor complete his great cause of returning to the east!

And everything after that, wouldn't it be logical?

Xun Yu got up suddenly... "Lu Gongcao, what is the deduction of the drought in the Sanfu area? How sure are you?"

He has always been rigorous, and this matter is directly related to the process of "welcoming the emperor", so Xun Yu asked repeatedly.

"Eight or nine is not far from ten!" Lu Yu replied...

Xun Yu nodded immediately. He remembered...the last time Lu Yu estimated the drought in the Central Plains, he said [-]% to [-]%...

And eighty-nine is not far from ten is obviously much more certain than seventy or eighty percent.

"Good! Good! Good!" After three good words in a row, Xun Yu paced around, as if he was thinking carefully and making arrangements...

It is very difficult to welcome the emperor back from the tiger's mouth of Chang'an City...

But if the emperor returns to Luoyang from the east, and welcomes the emperor back from Luoyang, there will be a lot of maneuverability in the process!

"Ha ha…"

Xun Yu is happy...

The entanglement and thinking in my heart for a period of time finally came to a result today. Although... this is still just an idea, but... the most difficult first step has been taken.

Xun Yu closed his eyes, and he frowned in thought. His mind revolved around the matter of going west to Luoyang to "welcome the emperor", and he had already started to design and write the overall plan.

first…

We need to send more spies to inquire about the news in Guanzhong, and we must get the movement of the emperor leaving Chang'an and the warlords in Guanzhong as soon as possible!
Secondly, it is necessary to send envoys to the court more frequently to worship, and by the way, to win the support of some loyal ministers around the emperor, and tell them that Cao Cao in Yanzhou has his heart attached to the emperor.

Finally... and most importantly, the road from Yanzhou to Luoyang must be opened before then. There are some small groups of princes among them, all of whom are not strong. As long as they are eliminated in advance...the opportunity to "welcome the emperor" will not be delayed!

and also…

Xun Yu thought of more than ten points that need to be paid attention to in a row. He seemed to have completely forgotten himself. Sometimes he took out a pen and a bamboo slip from his pocket and wrote a few strokes, and sometimes he talked to himself...

To welcome the emperor, perhaps in Cao Cao's view, is a tool for hegemony!

But in Xun Yu's view, that has a different meaning, as Lu Yu mentioned before——

——Son of Heaven, this supreme being who once ruled China for hundreds of years, even though his real power has declined, his false name still exists, and it is deeply engraved in the experience world of common people, clansmen, princes, and scholars!
Xun Yu is a representative figure of the Yingchuan clan, and he was deeply influenced by Confucianism since he was a child. His allegiance to Cao Cao is to unreservedly display his talents, realize his ideals and revenge, but... to welcome the emperor is what he practiced in his heart the avenue!

now…

It's so hard to get such an opportunity...

Integrate your own ideals and aspirations as well as the avenue in your heart!
How could his Xun Yu's heart not be throbbing?How could you not do your best?

Looking at Xun Yu's ecstasy, eyes closed and meditating.

Lu Yu was thinking...don't bother him, anyway...he has already reminded him in place, let Xun Wenruo, a talent from Yingchuan, arrange the specific implementation steps.

Of course... During the process of welcoming the emperor, the specific operations are also very cumbersome. Thinking about it for a while, Lu Yu felt his head hurt!

Fortunately, Xun Yu realized it, then basically...

The strategic plan for welcoming the emperor is stable, as stable as an old dog!

...
