Chapter 110 Wang Zuo's Talent - Xun Yu

But he said that after Sun Can scolded Yuan Shao angrily, he led his army to leave Luoyang. He knew that the Allied Army would have to disperse in this way, and it was meaningless for him to stay, so he went south to prepare to return to Wan County.

Just as soon as I set up camp and set up a stronghold, suddenly, I had to report to a scribe outside the account to ask for an interview.

Sun Can invited him in. The person who came was only about 25 or [-] years old. He was dressed like a Confucian scholar. ,High spirits.

Sun Can asked the guards to sit for him and served him good tea.

Sun Can asked: "I don't know what the so-called sir came to our barracks?"

The other party didn't seem to hear it, but was just slowly tasting the tea.

"I don't know what's the matter with Mr. coming to our barracks?" Sun Can asked patiently again.

The other party still didn't hear it.

Sun Can didn't ask questions, but just quietly waited for the other party to speak.The other party never had the intention to speak, but just drank peacefully, changing one cup of tea and another cup.

An hour passed in a blink of an eye.

The two still didn't say a word, but the other party had switched from tasting tea to closing their eyes and resting their minds.

Sun Can's patience finally reached its limit, and he said, "Chan has something to do, and I really can't wait any longer with my husband. If there is something to discuss, my husband can come to the Wancheng government office, and Can is waiting for me."

The visitor suddenly opened his eyes, stood in front of Sun Can and bowed: "Xun Yu in Xiayingchuan, I have met Mr. Sun, and I have heard of his name for a long time. I am willing to join you under the command of your lord and do the work of a dog."

Sun Can hurriedly stepped forward to help Xun Yu up, and said pleasantly, "You are Mr. Wen Ruo? Great, it's a great fortune to meet Mr. today. Sun Can thanked Mr. Wen Ruo for his help on behalf of the late emperor."

Xun Yu sighed: "The death of the first emperor made Yu very heartbroken. Such an early death of such a famous monarch is really a misfortune for the country. Yu was determined to restore the Han Dynasty, but there was no one to serve him. Now he is willing to join the master's command and do the work of a dog and a horse."

Sun Can said happily: "It's Can's great fortune to be able to match Mr. with such a great talent. There is no reason not to accept it. But Mr. is so talented, I'm afraid it will make him useless!"

Xun Yu also laughed when he heard this.

In troubled times, it is not only the virtuous lord who chooses good ministers, but also good ministers who choose wise rulers.A great talent like Xun Yu is exactly this kind of person.As early as when he was working under Liu Bian's command, he heard Sun Can's name several times. In addition, Sun Can's feats such as breaking the yellow scarf, removing Zhang Rang, governing Wancheng, stabbing Dong Zhuo, and breaking Lu Bu were all very satisfying.At the same time, it is enough to prove that Sun Can's character and talent are the best choices.

In addition, only Sun Can and Cao Cao, the princes of the Nineteenth Route, pursued him, which also proved his heart for the country.

The only thing that Xun Yu should be worried about is Sun Can's character. Judging from his actions, his impulsive personality is his fatal weakness.However, impulsive people, no matter how talented they are, can hardly become masters.Therefore, his act of coming in was to test Sun Can's patience.Apparently, Sun Canqian waited for an hour and got Xun Yu's approval.

At the same time, he also discovered an advantage of Sun Can, that is, he has a strong self-assessment, and can accommodate other people's opinions while self-assessment.

Actually, Xun Yu didn't know Sun Can well.Sun Can's actions seemed impulsive, but he definitely didn't do it out of impulsiveness.It is a nature, an adventurous nature.

Sun Can received Xun Yu, and immediately worshiped him as Sima, introduced him to the army, set up camp, and went to Luoyang.

Halfway through the journey, suddenly, I saw a group of people panicking.

The leader was actually Chen Dao who was guarding Wancheng, Sun Can immediately stepped forward and said, "Uncle Zhi, why are you in such a mess?"

Chen Dao's clothes were disheveled and his face was full of exhaustion. When he saw Sun Can, he made a "plop" and knelt down on his knees, kneeling in front of him with his knees instead of his legs.

Sun Can, who was a little surprised when he saw Chen Dao's actions, was even more uneasy at the moment, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhi, why is this? Get up quickly!"

Chen Dao was unmoved, put his forehead on the ground, and said in a mournful voice: "Chen Dao is incompetent, Wancheng fell, please forgive me, my lord."

"What? The fall of Wancheng!!!" Although Sun Can was somewhat prepared, he still couldn't help but turn pale, and asked anxiously, "What's going on here? Where's Chan'er? Where's Yuan Shao? And Yuan Shao?" Sigh? Zhongxiang? What happened to them.”

Chen Dao wept and said, "Miss Diao Chan, Mr. Gu Yong, Mr. Yu Fan, and Mr. Liang Xi are all fine, only General Pei died after he died."

Sun Can held back his anger and said, "What's going on? Who did this?"

Chen Dao said with great regret: "Jingzhou governor Liu Biao did it. He ordered Cai to lead an army of 1000 to go northward in the name of attacking Dong. When we were in Wancheng, we suddenly broke into our army’s barracks outside the east gate. The soldiers in the camp were unprepared, and half of the soldiers died inexplicably. When we realized that the gate was closed, we wanted to defend it. But there are only [-] people, and the strength is very different. Breaking the city is a foregone conclusion. We had to take advantage of the unpreparedness and protect our relatives and family members to break through.

After Cai Mao learned about it, he set up troops to chase him.After General Pei Yuanshao gave up his life, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.Miss Diao Chan and others are currently recuperating in Funiu Mountain. "

"Cai Mao, see you someday, he will take your life." Sun Can gritted his teeth, wishing he could go to Jingzhou immediately and tear Cai Mao's body to pieces.

"My lord, please calm down. This is not the time to be angry. After Xiangyang is broken, it is not too late to take revenge?" Xun Yu smiled. Ba and Shu are places where martial arts can be used.

Xun Yu's overall view is very good.

In history, Cao Cao's counselors were as brilliant as stars, among which Xun Yu was undoubtedly the most dazzling one among them. Whether it was the overall strategic planning or the design of specific battles, the strength of Cao Cao's army was greatly affected. All have made indelible contributions.He had a long-term vision, strategized, and won a decisive victory thousands of miles away, which played a great role in Cao Cao's unification of the north.

The direction of Cao Cao's growth was planned by Xun Yu.Among them, such as using Yanzhou as the base, two tigers competing for food and driving tigers to devour wolves, welcoming the Han emperor to Xudu, opening Xuanwu Lake to train the water army, etc., the crucial strategies were all planned by Xun Yu.

But now, under Sun Can's command, he will naturally plan the overall direction for Sun Can. Jingzhou is the first step in his plan. Unfortunately, there is no reason to send troops. At this moment, this once-in-a-lifetime reason automatically comes to him. How could he Can not be happy.

Xun Yu asked suspiciously, "However, I heard that the governor of Jingzhou is Wang Rui, an upright Confucian, how did he become Liu Biao, one of the 'Eight Talents'?"

These words also asked Sun Can's heartfelt thoughts: "Before Can went on the expedition, the governor of Jingzhou was still Wang Rui, Mr. Wang? Who is Liu Biao?"

Chen Dao replied: "It's a long story. Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha, sent troops to attack Dong Zhuo. He passed through Xiangyang and asked Lord Wang Rui to send troops together. However, Lord Wang Rui was at odds with Cao Yin, the prefect of Wuling, so he declared that he would have Sun Jian kill Cao Yin." Cao Yin was afraid that Sun Jian would really kill him, so he forged a statement from the "executor of the crime", listed Lord Wang Rui's crimes, and asked Sun Jian to arrest Lord Wang Rui. The reckless Sun Jian believed it, so he returned to Xiangyang to arrest Lord Wang Rui Mr. Wang Rui was desperate and committed suicide by swallowing gold.

Later, when Jingzhou had no owner, Liu Biao took the post of governor of Jingzhou under Cai Mao's recommendation, and married Cai Mao's younger sister.Now Cai Maoshui ranks high, and his status in Jingzhou is second only to Liu Biao. "

Liu Hua suggested at this time: "Cai Mao didn't know that Can'er came back so quickly. We can march at full speed, use the fastest speed, and counterattack Wancheng by surprise."

Xun Yu nodded in praise and said: "This method is very good. We must find a place to stay in a short period of time, otherwise our army will be wiped out."

Sun Can drew his sword and shouted: "Liu Biao of Jingzhou is occupying my city, it is extremely hateful. The soldiers can follow me to Wancheng and get back everything that belongs to us."

The horns were repeated, and the [-] Yu army rushed to Wancheng at high speed.

After marching for several days, they encountered each other on the Nanyang Plain, and the two armies were torn apart.

Meteor came to report that it was Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Sun Jian of Changsha who killed the two sides.

Sun Can led the generals to wait and see from a high place, and saw that there were many battle flags down the slope, most of them were the banners of Liu Biao's army, but Sun Jian's soldiers were few and far between, and they were surrounded by Liu Biao's army.

Xun Yu pointed to the main flag on the opposite side of the enemy's camp and said, "The opponent has surrounded Sun Jian with tactics, but the rear is extremely empty. As long as our army is caught by surprise and sends two light cavalry to detour to the opponent's camp, we can capture them alive."

Liu Hua continued: "It's best to send a small group of soldiers to attack the opponent, so as to attract the opponent's attention. Wenruo's plan will definitely succeed."

Sun Can smiled and said: "With Yafu and Wen Ruo here, Can hardly needs to use his brain. Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, you all lead a hundred elite soldiers to prepare to capture the opponent's general... Zhengzhong, you led two hundred into the formation and entered the opponent At the center, join Sun Jian and let them hold on for a while."

"I will obey the command of the lord." The three of them took orders in unison.

Gao Shun's two hundred encircled soldiers, arranged as a frontal formation good at breaking through the encirclement, rushed down from the slope like a sharp knife, tearing a gap in the encirclement of Liu Biao's army, and rushed towards Liu Biao's army at a very fast speed. advance forward.

The soldiers in the formation are good at attacking, launching a fierce offensive in the gap, like an unstoppable sharp arrow, breaking through all obstacles and entering the encirclement.

"What's going on?" Cai Mao stared at the sudden army in the formation.

Kuai Yue on the side said: "Maybe, it's the successor army? Let them in. Anyway, there are only two hundred soldiers, so it's not a big deal."

Cai Mao didn't know much about Lu Zhan, he knew that Kuai Yue was a talented person, so he couldn't be wrong, so he nodded in agreement and said, "Alright."

Kuai Yue waved the command flag and issued a semaphore to let the enemy in.

Suddenly, horseshoes sounded from the left and right sides, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao rushed out at the same time.

Kuai Yue was captured by Zhang Liao for no reason.

Cai Mao turned around and ran away in fright.

Zhao Yun smiled coldly: "Look at me, Zhao Yun's amazing shot!" Two arrows were fired together, one arrow hit Cai Mao's right arm, and the other arrow hit the horse's buttock.

The war horse was stung, startled and galloped.Cai Mao hit an arrow in his right hand, unable to use his strength, caught off guard, and immediately fell off the horse.

Zhao Yun captured him easily.
