Chapter 523
Xu You, who was left alone by Yuan Shao, suppressed the great joy in his heart and continued to offer suggestions.
"My lord, you should immediately send people to the Black Mountain and other camps to gather the remaining civilian soldiers."
"Although these people were criminals in the past, they were forced to do so."
"They were destroyed by the clan landlords in various places and had to follow the Yellow Turbans."
"My lord, sending people to recruit them is to give those desperate people a way to survive."
"Give them a new identity."
"This is a great achievement."
Yuan Shao nodded repeatedly, "You are right."
"Those people were forced to follow the landlords. ”
“Who would want to rebel if they stuttered?”
“At this time, the government is in chaos and needs to rebuild. We need manpower.”
“Let them redeem themselves.”
“It is not impossible for them to regain a high status by charging into battle and making achievements.”
“I will give them such a good opportunity, which will surely make them fight to the death.”
“They will be brave in battle!”
After Yuan Shao’s speech, Xu You in the hall hurriedly complimented him.
The two had a good chat.
Yuan Shao made a decision on the spot, and Xu You was responsible for everything.
After roughly explaining what personnel to assign and what treatment to give, Xu You was responsible for the details.
Xu You was excited to receive such a big task.
He was very lucky that those counselors did not come back from Youzhou.
Otherwise, he would never have such a good opportunity.
It would be better to die there!
The kind that cannot die any more!
Xu You cursed fiercely in his heart.
"In addition." Yuan Shao hesitated slightly and continued.
"After Tang Hai defeated my Jizhou army, he must have tried every means to occupy Youzhou."
"I know Liu Yu. Although he has ambition, he has no ability."
"He is definitely not a match for Tang Hai and Liu Chengzhi."
"Youzhou will definitely fall into Tang Hai's hands."
"It borders my Jizhou, and there will be friction in the future."
"If you want to pacify other princes, Tang Hai will always be a big barrier in front of Jizhou."
"But the other side is strong in military preparations, what should we do?"
Facing Yuan Shao's inquiry, Xu You was neither anxious nor slow.
He had already thought of this problem.
Xu You slowly said, "My Lord, there is something I should say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"Why not?" Yuan Shao said with a trusting expression, "There are only you and me here."
"Whatever you say, it will enter my ears."
"Speak directly."
Xu You respectfully accepted the order and said again, "Tang Hai is powerful and has far exceeded our expectations."
"We cannot defeat it with the power of Jizhou alone."
"Of course, we need to introduce external forces to fight it together."
"Once Tang Hai is pacified, there will be no worries in the world."
"Other princes are not worth worrying about."
Yuan Shao nodded and agreed deeply.
Whether it was Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, or Liu Yan who occupied Yizhou, he felt that they were not that difficult.
The one he feared most was Tang Hai.
"Given the situation ahead, we must mobilize all the forces we can mobilize and do our best to deal with Tanghai."
Xu You said solemnly: "So I think that while we are vigorously recruiting the remaining bandits of the Yellow Turbans, we must also take the initiative to contact the Xianbei, Goguryeo, Southern Xiongnu and other foreign bandits."
"Encourage them to attack Tanghai together."
"Even if Tanghai's military equipment is strong, how can it face enemies from all directions."
"Then no matter how powerful Liu Yu is, he will definitely be unable to split his forces."
"When the time comes, once a certain direction is defeated, it will be the time for Tanghai to collapse."
Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, "Well said!"
"Tanghai is not a three-headed and six-armed, how can it withstand attacks from all directions."
"But..."
He hesitated slightly, "How can we convince those foreign races to unite and take action?"
"Those barbarians are not yet civilized, but they are also "It's a smart calculation."
"Without huge interests, they will naturally not work hard."
"Definitely sit on the sidelines and watch."
Xu You smiled slightly and confidently suggested: "My lord, this is a simple trip."
Noticing Yuan Shao's eyes looking at him, he immediately straightened his face, "The northern barbarians are born in a bitter and cold land."
"Why do they always harass my Han border? In addition to robbing food, it is more of a yearning."
"If I can have rich land, I can farm and eat food in peace."
"A wife and children are warm and comfortable."
"Who is willing to graze in the wind and rain?"
"As long as the lord promises to each tribe, after the victory, the land of Youzhou will be divided, and the other party's fiefdom will be recognized."
"And they will be crowned kings in the name of the court."
"The barbarians will be tempted to inherit those lands forever!"
Xu You said it with certainty.
"It is impossible, this is absolutely not allowed!" Yuan Shao waved his hands quickly.
"If I do this, how will other princes in the world look at me?"
"Isn't the matter of ceding land a joke?"
Xu You kept observing Yuan Shao's expression.
He had already seen that the other party was not sincere.
"My Lord!" Xu You bowed his hands and said bitterly: "This is the time when the winners will be the kings and the losers will be the bandits."
"If you have a woman's heart, you will definitely not be able to stop the powerful Tang Hai."
"As long as Tang Hai digests the power of Youzhou, the next target of invasion must be my Jizhou."
"Even if we don't take the initiative, the other party will not treat us peacefully."
"As the saying goes, the first to strike is the strongest, and my Jizhou needs to do its best to kill Tang Hai! ”
“As for the foreign invasion of Han territory that the lord is worried about…”
He hesitated a little and observed that Yuan Shao’s attention was always fixed on him, Xu You said confidently.
“The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. As long as the lord gains the world, the civil officials will know what will be written in the history books later.”
“Moreover, if the lord gains the world, he can gather the power of the world and march north.”
“One battle will pacify all the barbarians and thus stabilize the world.”
“At that time, the whole world will be full of voices praising the lord’s wisdom.”
“Famous for thousands of years!”
Xu You’s loud voice carried a special power, like a cunning little snake, and drilled into Yuan Shao’s heart.
It crushed Yuan Shao’s originally unsteady will.
His eyes flickered repeatedly, and he thought urgently in his heart.
Finally, Yuan Shao’s eyes became extremely sharp.
“The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit…”
“That’s right!”
“Let’s do it! ”
“Write the letter immediately, carefully consider the words, and contact the barbarians in various places.”
“Promise them to be enfeoffed.”
“In addition…”
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice to explain: “Order people who know about it to secretly imitate the imperial seal and stamp it on the documents to make up the number to stabilize the barbarians.”
“I will leave this matter to you.”
Yuan Shao patted the other party on the shoulder, “Fortunately, I have your assistance, otherwise Jizhou would not know where the future is.”
“Please accept my bow!”
“No, no!” Xu You refused firmly and quickly helped Yuan Shao, who was about to bow down.
With a look of fear on his face, Xu You was very happy in his heart.
The depression of being suppressed by other counselors and unable to develop strategies before was completely dissipated at this moment.
“Don’t worry, lord!” He solemnly stated: “I will definitely work hard to complete these two things. ”
“Strive to conquer the world for the Lord!”
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes, stood with his hands behind his back, and felt very happy.
