Chapter 618 Xun You's Strategy

Standing next to Xun You, Cheng Yu and Man Chong nodded in agreement.

"Then, does Gongda have any countermeasures?" Seeing that Xun You revealed Lu Bu's intention of using troops this time, Cao Cao asked again.Zhang Miao was his old friend, and he helped him many times. Cao Cao had no reason to refuse to save him.

Xun You took a step forward and offered advice: "My lord, please send a letter to Lu Bu, stating the key points in it, and expressing that he has no intention of competing with him for supremacy, and begging him to let the governor Zhang Miao go."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent was in an uproar.

Xiahou Dun, who was in the main battle, even turned his face on the spot, swearing loudly without mercy: "Begging for perfection, what kind of shit idea is this!"

There is a saying that the humiliation of the master is due to the incompetence of the subordinates.

Cao Cao waved his hand to stop Xiahou Dun from being rude, and then sighed: "It's okay for me to keep my head down, I'm just afraid that Lu Bu won't agree."

"Of course he won't agree, because this is just the first step of the plan."

Xun You took the words, with a confident self-confidence on his face, but his appearance was dull, and he was a bit foolish when he smiled: "My lord's actions this time are only secondary to showing weakness to Lu Bu, and the main thing is to show the world. It shows that I have no rebellious heart, but that Lv Bu is aggressive and leans on the strong to bully the weak."

Cao Cao nodded. The biggest disadvantage of facing Lu Bu is that if you are not careful, you will be accused of rebelling against the court and the emperor. This is one of the things Cao Cao does not want to accept.

After all, in Cao Cao's heart, he has always prided himself on being loyal and good in the Han Dynasty.

"At the same time, my lord can write another letter to send an envoy to meet Yuan Shao in Hebei, expressing his willingness to form an alliance with him to resist Lu Bu. And tell Yuan Shao that he will help him contain the main force of Lu Bu's army in Yanzhou, so that Yuan Shao can feel at ease. Attack the Hanoi area."

Xun You stroked the soft beard on his chin, and talked eloquently.Lu Bu gathered his army in the territory of Chenliu. As a result, the troops in Hanoi and other places were bound to be relatively weak.Once Yuan Shao advances the battle line to Hanoi, Lu Bu will surely pull his horse back to rescue him.

By then, the crisis in Yanzhou will be resolved.

"In addition to this, my lord can contact another person. This person has resented Lu Bu. He only needs a little provocation, and he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to encircle and suppress Lu Bu."

A bright light flashed in Xun You's eyes, and with a little brains, it was not difficult to guess the person's name.

It is Yuan Shu, the later general and the successor of the Yuan family in Huainan!
In the land of Huainan, there are rivers and lakes in the territory, rich and prosperous, and the population is huge.Managed by the Yuan family for several generations, it can basically be regarded as one-third of an acre of the Yuan family's own size.

Yuan Shu has been entrenched in Huainan for the past two years, recruiting talents and talents, and has a large number of soldiers under his command. Even Sun Jian, who is known as the "Jiangdong Tiger", is working for him.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Yuan Shu is the No. [-] power in the South.

In terms of the grievances between Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, this Liangzi has actually been taken over a long time ago, which can be traced back to the reign of the first emperor.

At that time, Yuan Shu was still serving as the general of Huben, while Lu Bu was the general of Habayashi.Yuan Shu was dismissed from office due to the contest between the two royal guards, and almost lost his life.

Especially in the past two years, Yuan Shu entered the Guanzhong by mistake and was subjected to all kinds of criminal laws in Chang'an Court Prison, which made him hate Lu Bu.

If there is a chance to attack and kill Lu Bu, why would Yuan Shu not come?
Cao Cao, who wanted to understand, stroked the short beard on his face, clapped his hands and laughed, "Gongda's strategy is exactly what I want!"

The thorny troubles that had caused him such a headache that he couldn't handle them just now became extremely easy after Xun You said a few words.

"Generals, immediately rectify the troops and horses, and return to Yanzhou with me!"

Cao Cao gave an order loudly, his small eyes sparkling.Since Lu Bu wants to devour the entire north, you have to look at your stomach first, whether it can hold our hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Hearing this order, all the generals couldn't hide their excitement and excitement, they clasped their fists and responded in unison: "Here!"

Afterwards, Cao Cao wrote letters in his account and handed them over to Li Dian, Man Chong, and Cheng Yu respectively.Among the three, Li Dian went to Chenliu where Lu Bu was, Man Chong went to Hebei, and Cheng Yu went to Huainan.

When the army set off, Li Dian said goodbye to Cao Cao briefly, got on a fast horse, and galloped at full speed.

Running around day and night, rushing all the way.

It took only three days to arrive at Lu Bu's camp.

Outside the camp, the soldiers guarding the gate directly stopped Li Dian and began to question him severely.

Fortunately, Li Dian is not a reckless person, and there is no gain for him to force his way in, so he said to the guard at the gate: "Please do me a favor, I have something important to see your lord."

"Oh, there are too many people who want to see my lord, who are you?" The soldier on the left looked disdainful, and there were countless people who came from various counties to see Lu Bu every day.

The soldier on the right had a better attitude, and asked Li Dian according to the procedure: "Who are you? My lord has a lot of things to do every day. If there is nothing important, you should leave as soon as possible, so as not to be thrown out of the camp later."

Although Li Dian felt dissatisfied, he still pulled his face down and said with a smile: "I am Li Dian, Lieutenant of Dongping, under Yanzhou Mu's command. I was ordered by Zhou Mu to come to see Da Sima, and I will trouble my little brother to report."

After looking up and down, the soldiers saw that Li Dian did not seem to be lying, so they went in and reported upwards.

Not long after, Li Dian saw a stern-looking young man walking out, and asked him, "Are you Li Dian?"

Seeing his extraordinary appearance, Li Dian thought he was an important general under Lu Bu's command, so he nodded quickly.

"follow me."

Chen Wei said loudly, and led Li Dian to the tent where Lu Bu was staying.

After arriving outside the big tent, Li Dian walked into the tent after getting a signal from Chen Wei.

In the big tent that was raised, there were quite a few people gathered inside, including scribes, counselors, military commanders and school officials.

"Why didn't Cao Mengde come?" A lazy voice with a little disappointment sounded.

Li Dian looked in the direction where the voice came from, and just exchanged a glance with him, his heart skipped a beat suddenly, beating non-stop.This person has a majestic appearance, eyebrows like a greedy wolf, and sharp eyes, especially the cold light shining from those pupils, which is even more frightening.

Is this the style of No.1 in the world?
Li Dian swallowed unconsciously, his expression a little nervous.After calming down again and again, he took out the letter in his arms, handed it with both hands, and said respectfully: "My lord was fighting the bandits in Rencheng, and I couldn't come to greet him in person. Please forgive me. I was surprised when I heard that Da Sima was besieging Chen Liu. Under the command, a letter will be brought at the end of the special order, please take a look at it."

In order to guard against fraud, Cao Xing went up and snatched it first.

After playing with it for a long time, Cao Xing found nothing abnormal, so he handed the bamboo slip to Lv Bu, and laughed suspiciously flatteringly: "Boss, look, look."
