Chapter 78: Xun Yu Recommends Talents
The warm winter sun shone lazily on the earth, and the long, withered grass covered the entire world.
The carriage stopped quietly on the eastbound road, and dozens of knights were scattered around the hillside, leisurely letting the horses gnaw at the grass roots hidden underground.
There were only two people standing at the top of the hillside, Xu Kang and Xun Yu.
"I thought you wouldn't come?" Xun Yu said with a smile.
"I thought so at the beginning, but after becoming a cavalry captain of the Bingzhou Army, I suddenly felt that I was qualified to keep you." Xu Kang looked seriously into Xun Yu's eyes and said, "Please stay.
Be my boss. I believe that as long as you and I join forces, there will be nothing in the world that we cannot do."
Xun Yu avoided Xu Kang's gaze and turned to the east. After a while, Fang said, "What if I refuse?"
"Then I will tie you back." Xu Kang was very serious when he said this, and it was obvious that he was not joking.
But Xun Yu laughed and said, "It's not a waste to have you hold me in such high regard."
Xu Kang was immediately overjoyed and said, "You are willing to stay."
Unexpectedly, Xun Yu shook his head and said: "I dare not violate the family's orders. I will go back after all. But if you can trust me, I can recommend someone to you."
Xu Kang was stunned and said subconsciously: "Who is it?"
"My nephew, Xun You, Xun Gongda."
Xu Kang, who was familiar with "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", immediately understood who he was talking about when he heard this. Xun You was a famous military advisor under Cao Cao, who was called the "strategist" and was good at flexible tactics to defeat the enemy and military strategies.
.If we can get their help, it will definitely be of great help to our military construction.
Xu Kang suddenly said excitedly: "Where is he now?"
"Here in Luoyang City, he is now the Minister of Huangmen."
"Can you convince him to work for me?"
Xun Yu shook his head and said: "No, you can't even let him know that I recommended him to you."
Xu Kang wondered: "Why?"
Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Although Xun You is my nephew, he is much older than me and ten times more knowledgeable than me. Therefore, he is extremely dissatisfied with the clan naming me as the heir of the family. Naturally, his relationship with me is not the same.
It will be fine.”
Xu Kang frowned and said, "In this case, how can I recruit him?"
"This is a simple matter, just a piece of paper."
Xu Kang was stunned, slapped his head and said: "Yes, I am really stupid. Since he is an official of the imperial court, he cannot disobey the imperial court's transfer order. As long as I ask Dong Zhuo for the transfer order, I will transfer him into my army."
, naturally it can be used by me."
But Xun Yu stopped him and said, "It's best not to alarm Dong Zhuo about this matter. Your uncle Xu Jing has quite a lot of connections. You might as well ask him for help."
Xu Kang suddenly understood and nodded with satisfaction.
In the end, Xu Kang did not use force to keep Xun Yu, but sent Dian Wei to escort him back to Yingchuan. This was not because he recommended Xun You to him, but because Xu Kang felt that his current relationship with Xun Yu
Good, there is no need to deliberately destroy it, and the current situation in the world is uncertain, even if you keep him by your side, the effect it can have is limited.
Besides, as long as he owns his own territory earlier than Cao Cao in the future, it is completely impossible for Xun Yu, who leaves Yuan Shao, to abandon his family and join Cao Cao.
So what I have to do now is to take a long-term approach and catch the big fish.
In Luoyang City, Xun You, who had no idea that he had been sold, was discussing the assassination of Dong with Yilang Zheng Tai, He Yong, Shi Zhong Zhongji, Yueqi Colonel Wu Qiong and other ministers who protected Han.
.
In Xun You's view, Dong Zhuo was immoral and murderous. Although he had many elite soldiers and generals around him, he was just a single man. As long as he killed him to thank the people, and then used the emperor's edict to command the world, he would naturally be able to
It is easy to make up for the possible turmoil caused by Dong Zhuo's murder. So it is natural to kill Dong Zhuo.
Of course, another unspoken reason was that the Xun family actually sent Xun Yu back to his hometown, but no one informed him.
It seemed that the family was determined to let Xun Yu lead the Xun family. This made Xun You, who had always thought highly of himself and helped his uncle catch fugitives at the age of thirteen, extremely unhappy. Therefore, he even wanted to do something earth-shattering to show off to the world.
Prove that he is indeed stronger than Xun Yu.
And in today's world, is there anything bigger than assassinating Dong?
While several people were working hard, the imperial court's transfer order suddenly arrived, and Xun You was actually transferred to the command of Xu Kang, the captain of the cavalry school, as the commander-in-chief.
Xun You was confused when he took this paper. He didn't understand how Xu Kang knew about him. He didn't understand why he thought of recruiting her to serve under him.
He Yong and others were also very surprised and asked what happened. At the same time, they said that they could help him use his connections to reject the transfer order. After all, everyone is in the same boat now, and no one wants other unexpected situations to happen.
Xun You had a great love for military affairs, but as a descendant of the Xun family, he had no chance to serve in the army. This was an opportunity. So after thinking for a while, he refused and said, "I have heard about Xu Kang. He
I didn't hesitate to refute Dong Zhuo's face for the sake of a woman. I don't think I have the same intentions with Dong Zhuo. This time I went to the Bingzhou Army to lobby him. If I can get his help, with the two generals under his command, I will be sure to assassinate Dong Zhuo.
Already."
When everyone heard that it made sense, they all made suggestions to see how they could persuade Xu Kang to cooperate with them.
The so-called Bingzhou Army was actually an army temporarily recruited by the governor Ding Yuan. It was retained because it repeatedly performed extraordinary feats in the fight against the Huns' invasion.
After Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan, he inherited his position and commanded the five thousand elite soldiers from Bingzhou.
He took Gao Shun as his deputy, and Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng as assistants, becoming a force that no one dared to despise in Luoyang City.
However, Zhang Liao's status in the Bingzhou Army was somewhat special. The more than a thousand soldiers under him were originally recruited in Hebei on the order of He Jin. However, He Jin was defeated and Ding Yuan was killed, leaving him unable to support the army.
He had no choice but to lead these thousand people and surrender to Dong Zhuo.
Since they both belonged to the Bingzhou Army and had fought side by side in the past, Zhang Liao had to take shelter under Lu Bu in order to improve his army's status in Luoyang City. Although the two were nominally an alliance, Lu Bu could not directly command Zhang Liao's men.
troops, but because Lu Bu has always been strong, Zhang Liao still had to obey his orders.
The Bingzhou Army also had an army outside, under the command of Zhang Yang. He was in a similar situation to Zhang Liao. When he was recruiting an army, he suddenly encountered great changes in Luoyang. However, he did not choose to return to Luoyang, but stayed in Hanoi County, occupied the county seat, and became independent.
develop.
Nowadays, it echoes Lu Bu's north and south, and they have quite a lot of contacts with each other.
