Chapter 96 What are you looking at?
Xi Yu smiled lightly, looked fixedly at the three Cao Cao people in front of him, and asked casually.
Regardless of whether Liu Bei will serve as the pastor of Xuzhou, Cao Jun's attack on Xuzhou has become a fact.
This is something that cannot be changed.
Cao Cao would not abandon Xuzhou because of Liu Bei alone.
The entire Cao camp will not be shaken by anything that happens in Xuzhou.
At this point, it is not as simple as Cao Cao wanting to attack Xuzhou.
All Cao Ying needs is the territory of Xuzhou.
Development is not a matter of one person. Cao Cao is just the leader. In the final analysis, Cao Cao’s camp is a large team.
The wheels are already rolling, and these people will try their best to solve any obstacle.
The Xun Yu in front of him was like this, and so was Cheng Yu, including Xi Yu.
Looking at Xiyu in front of him with resentful eyes, Xun Yu was even more convinced at this moment.
This is the thing he despises the most. The current situation in the Han Dynasty is that the princes are all attacking each other!
"As for the Xuzhou gentry, they only care about the development of their family. As long as they don't harm the foundation of Xuzhou, these people don't care who controls Xuzhou."
"Lord, you might as well learn from Liu Bei!"
"Nothing!"
He naturally has his own personal charm, there is no doubt about this.
He himself was from Danyang, and since the imperial court appointed him as the governor of Xuzhou, Tao Qian began to take charge of Xuzhou.
Xun Yu was not complacent about this.
"As Zhongde said, this is the current situation in Xuzhou!"
He stared at the table in front of everyone, and after thinking about it, he poured some tea on the table.
good!
OK!
When it comes to the most important existence in Xuzhou, and even the most important existence in the world, they are the ordinary people.
Obviously he is full of talents and plans, and if he works hard, the results will naturally be more obvious.
These words hit the nail on the head.
What the people of the world want is a benevolent and righteous king.
Turning his eyes to Cheng Yu, after giving answers to all three people's questions, Yu looked at the three people in front of him with a playful look.
Liu Bei used this sword to create a career in the following years, but he used this sword very well.
In the final analysis, these businessmen are actually more focused on profits.
There is no comparison between merchant families and noble families.
Liu Bei is in Xuzhou, and now he is like a rootless man.
Although the four classes were superior to each other, there was no clear distinction at that time.
Liu Bei can take advantage of the current situation and occupy a place in Xuzhou.
"And the one who can control this force, I think, is Liu Bei!"
It would be something no one would want to do.
"What Fengyi said is good!"
Yanzhou is still caught between these two people after all.
There was a lot of friction between the two on the border.
The other party was able to win over the Shu Han in the later stage, and benevolence and righteousness were the points that it could not cover up.
Cao Cao sneered.
The reason why Xi Yu asked Cao Cao to learn it!
He had contact with Liu Bei.
If his army hadn't pressed in, I'm afraid there would have been a fight among themselves in Xuzhou right now.
Cao Cao can also use the sword of benevolence and righteousness!
That is the merchants such as the Mi family. Compared with the gentry, their influence in Xuzhou is somewhat weaker.
It is precisely because of the Danyang soldiers that Tao Qian became one of the princes in this troubled time.
Xi Yu raised his eyes and slowly looked at the three people in front of him.
When Cao Jun conquered Xuzhou, he did not carry out any massacre of the city or harm to the people.
Cheng Yu is right.
"Renyi?"
It is precisely because compared to Liu Bei, this aspect of Cao Cao is really inconspicuous.
Xiyu opened his mouth and smiled.
There's just one more Liu Bei, that's all!
"He is arrogant and arrogant, brave but without any plan. To us, this person is just a man with scabies!"
When talking about Xuzhou, naturally it is not the war with Xuzhou on the surface, but the internal problems of Xuzhou as a whole.
The three of them are all smart people, and there is no need to explain some things so thoroughly.
"I heard that the factions in Xuzhou have gradually begun to fight among themselves!"
???
With half of Xuzhou under his command and occupying the entire Xuzhou, the rest is only a matter of time.
"It's nothing!"
Tao Qianeng later became Xuzhou Mu, and the Danyang soldiers behind him should not be underestimated.
Being in the rear area, he naturally pays attention to the situation in Xuzhou every day.
"The same is true for those wealthy merchants!"
Would those wealthy gentry families that have always based themselves on Xuzhou be willing to have an outsider ride on their heads?
Cheng Yu sighed, how could he not understand such an obvious truth.
I saw Xun Yu's fingers sketching on the table. After a while, a rough map of Xuzhou appeared on the table.
After hearing the other party's analysis, Cao Cao and Xun Yu nodded.
Starting from the time when Han Dynasty began to focus exclusively on Confucianism, the status of the gentry began to rise rapidly.
Although Tao Qian wanted Liu Bei to succeed Xuzhou Mu, how could anyone else be willing to do such a thing.
How could you just watch Xuzhou fall into Liu Bei's hands?
"When it comes to today's Xuzhou, the Danyang people led by Tao Qian are considered one faction, the local nobles in Xuzhou are another faction, and those wealthy merchants are one faction, and Liu Bei is also one faction!"
Tao Qian has done a good job in this regard before. It is precisely because of this that Tao Qian has a good reputation in Xuzhou.
The forces and factions he mentioned have been pretty much explained, but I didn't expect that there was something else that he didn't say.
Who can not be excited!
Xun Yu next to him twitched the corner of his mouth, you kid has already thought about it.
After all, the example of a certain big businessman from the pre-Qin period was already there.
After hearing Xi Yu's remarks, Xun Yu beside him nodded and smiled.
Xun Yu didn't say anything, but his eyes moved slightly when he looked at Xi Yu.
"Currently our army has occupied Dongguan County, Donghai County and other counties in Xuzhou!"
Benevolence and righteousness are a sword.
Starting from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the concept of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce began to appear.
They have fought against each other no less than dozens of times, and there should always be a winner between these two people.
"Look, everyone!"
"Let's talk about Liu Bei. Although he can inherit the power of Tao Qian, he himself has external reasons."
What's more, it's still Xun Yu.
As soon as these words were spoken, Cao Cao and Xun Yu began to look serious.
For this reason, merchants made many bets.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu also looked at Xi Yu, wanting to hear what the other person had to say differently.
And how long can this time last?
As for Yuan Shu in Huainan, he is now busy conquering more towns.
Things that they had ignored before were now suddenly clear to them.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu looked at each other.
After Cao Cao finished speaking, Cheng Yu next to him started to analyze.
He has a keen eye to recognize people and knows how to use them well, which is quite like the style of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty.
"Benevolence and justice!"
What these nobles only value is profit!
The remaining thing, the most important thing at the moment, is naturally the Xuzhou matter.
A sword used well is an invincible sword!
Xi Yu was not in a hurry to express his conclusion, but instead turned around and asked the three people in front of him.
Cao Cao is a bit cruel.
The general he relied on most, Cao Bao, was a fellow countryman of Tao Qian and the person Tao Qian trusted the most.
The two brothers of the Yuan family, one in the south and one in the north, have now become a presence that the Han Dynasty cannot ignore.
The fact that he had helped Kong Rong before had already explained everything.
But he is loyal to Tao Qian, and the two complement each other, and they are considered a powerful force in Xuzhou.
These people have been operating in Xuzhou for who knows how many years. After several generations of hard work, they have finally managed to make some noise in Xuzhou.
The Chen family is a local noble family in Xuzhou. They have been in business for several generations and have taken root in Xuzhou long ago.
"People of Xuzhou!"
This move made Xi Yu's brows slightly raised.
It's a pity that Cao Bao's abilities are limited and he can barely be a general.
As for Xi Yu, compared to Cao Cao and others, he has a clearer understanding of Liu Bei.
"Our army's current military peak points to Xuzhou, which is already under our army's military peak. The army is pressing in from multiple directions. It is only a matter of time before we occupy Xuzhou!"
"Which point?"
"When he was in Anxi County, Liu Bei's reputation for benevolence and righteousness was well-known far and near!"
The same was true for Xun Yu and Cheng Yu beside them.
But his lazy and stateless appearance is really disgusting.
"Liu Bei was able to gain such a great reputation in Xuzhou in a short period of time precisely because of his benevolence and righteousness!"
Whoever can benefit them more will be supported by them.
For him, what he wanted to hear more at this moment was how they could occupy the entire Xuzhou and bring Xuzhou under their control.
"After listening to Fengyi's words today, I realized that I still have a shallow view after all!"
"Now that Tao Qian is seriously ill, I expect that he will not be able to survive this winter, and the Danyang forces under his command will inevitably be controlled by others in the future."
Talking about business, when the four people sat around, they all became extremely serious with each other.
Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed.
Today, Cheng Yu, after getting acquainted with Xi Yu, respects him quite a bit.
Xi Yu commented in one breath that he took the nobles and wealthy families seriously, but Liu Bei was nothing.
Everything Xi Yu said was indeed not worth taking seriously.
After Xi Yu's remarks, his whole body felt an indescribable sense of smoothness.
"As for Lu Bu?"
This point of benevolence and righteousness in Liu Bei is something that no one can ignore.
Although the status of these merchants in Xuzhou is not as good as that of those wealthy families.
"Xuzhou?"
"The foundation is not deep. Even if you succeed Xuzhou Mu in a short period of time, you will not be able to sit firmly!"
A person whose literary talents and planning are not inferior to him, and who is extremely powerful in military strategy and force. Although such a person becomes a colleague, it is a bit stressful, but in such a world of great contention.
This guy must not be allowed to waste his abilities. No matter what, he must let Xi Yu put his talents to use.
At this moment, Cao Cao felt as if he had taken a sip of the refreshing spring water in March.
"Tao Qian is seriously ill now. Who has the final say in Xuzhou has not yet been determined!"
The three of them came here together, not to see what Xiyu was doing.
The atmosphere in the entire camp seemed to have suddenly come to a standstill.
At this time, seeing that Xi Yu had no intention of continuing to speak, Cheng Yu next to him stroked his not-so-long beard under his forehead, grinned and asked softly.
Whether it's a wealthy family, a noble family, or someone else.
Yuan Shao now occupies the land of Jizhou and Qingzhou, and there is already an incompatibility between him and Gongsun Zan.
Followed by the modest gentleman in front of him, he stretched out his hand and dotted it on the water.
And as the years passed, the status of merchants gradually became weaker and weaker.
He insisted on not going to the government office for so many days.
And his various experiences in Xuzhou cannot be ignored.
The purpose of these noble families is nothing more than the prosperity of their families. They don't pay much attention to who should be the shepherd of Xuzhou.
Almost subconsciously, Cheng Yu blurted out the question.
At this moment, all three people looked towards Xi Yu.
The development of Caoying cannot stagnate, and Xuzhou is a crucial step.
"I have said before that Fengyi must know these things very well!"
Being able to end this troubled world as soon as possible and restore the Han Dynasty to its former strength as soon as possible is what Xun Yu longed for in his heart.
No one can be separated from the people.
Naturally, it was the Xuzhou gentry headed by the Chen family, Chen Gui, Chen Deng and his son.
Xun Yu frowned slightly.
But this time it was because of him.
He seemed to understand what Cao Cao and Xun Yu wanted to ask.
"My lord, please don't underestimate this. Although benevolence and righteousness are nothing to a noble family, they are nothing."
Although he was just an outsider, it was precisely because Tao Qian was seriously ill that Liu Bei, an outsider, suddenly intervened in the situation in Xuzhou and became more important.
As for the final Liu Bei.
However, after all, he is a nobleman himself, and his stance is different.
Seeing Cao Cao's appearance, Xi Yu instantly understood what he was thinking.
Soon after, the three of them looked at each other, and then started laughing at each other.
"Speaking of Xuzhou, I wonder how Fengyi views the current situation of our army?"
Xi Yu nodded and looked at Cheng Yu.
He had long been familiar with Xuzhou's landforms, and now he was sketching them casually, so of course it was nothing.
…
They are determined to win Xuzhou, and no one can stop them from occupying Xuzhou.
Cao Cao was puzzled, and the two Xun Yu men beside him also looked at Xi Yu.
"Indeed, as Wen Ruo said, although our army and the Xuzhou Army are now facing each other, our army's advantages have been fully demonstrated."
When the other party entered Cao's camp earlier, he still wanted to take care of him.
"There is nothing wrong with our army's previous strategy. My lord just needs to continue!"
That guy Tao Qian can't hold on much longer.
"What other insights does Fengyi have?"
Now, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan and others have all been placed in Xuzhou by him.
Its forces can be considered to be deeply entwined in Xuzhou.
There is no jealousy. Xun Yu has long regarded Xi Yu as his younger brother.
…
Whether it is records in later history books or some unofficial descriptions.
"What's more, for the people in this world, what they want is this kind of kindness!"
As soon as Xi Yu said this, the three people beside him were startled.
However, since the pre-Qin period, the contention of a hundred schools of thought has come to an end.
It is precisely because of this that Xi Yu asked Cao Cao to learn from Liu Bei.
"However, this point cannot be ignored!"
The common people are always something that cannot be ignored. After the three of them looked at each other, they couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
"People!"
He is considered a second-rate general, not a famous general.
Without his Xiyu, the Battle of Xuzhou would have been a massacre in itself, and there would have been many massacres of the city.
Let’s talk about Xuzhou’s wealthy merchant families.
It would not be too difficult for anyone to look at the map of Xuzhou every day and outline a general situation.
Cheng Yu shook his head gently.
It can even be successful.
Even Cao Cao and Cheng Yu couldn't help but praise him.
They don't want to.
Cao Cao was a little confused. What should he learn from Liu Bei?
What's there to learn from that guy?
After half a lifetime of business, it can be said that the business in Xuzhou has made a splash.
"The factions Zhongde mentioned are not much different, but you seem to have overlooked the most important first point!"
He was even more annoyed with Xi Yu.
This situation is no longer a simple chat.
Let’s talk about Tao Qian first.
Xun Yu didn't say much, he just casually pointed out the current situation in Xuzhou, and then looked up at the three people in front of him.
"There is a certain merit in this person that is worthy of learning from my lord!"
As expected of Xun Yu, the entire Xuzhou landscape can be outlined simply with some water.
And speaking of Xuzhou gentry.
After hearing what Xi Yu said, Cao Cao couldn't help but ask.
At present, the rebellion in Yanzhou has been almost settled with Cao Cao's return.
"The rest are in Tancheng, Xiapi and other areas of Xuzhou!"
Even if it is based on the original history.
The merchants and wealthy families cannot be compared with the noble families at all.
What does benevolence and righteousness count for?
Of course, Cao Cao did not refute this point about Liu Bei.
Cheng Yu spoke out the current situation in Xuzhou in a leisurely manner.
Cao Cao frowned!
The people of Xuzhou also want their governor to be a benevolent and righteous gentleman.
Xi Yu didn't deliberately make any excuses. When he saw the three people looking at him, he casually mentioned the advantages he saw in Liu Bei.
However, after realizing a little bit of Xi Yu's abilities, Xun Yu naturally hopes that Xi Yu can do more things.
"My lord, you should learn a lesson!"
Their views are not much different.
"Looking around the world, who doesn't want their immediate boss to be kind and righteous?"
Without ordinary people, where would the wealthy noble families come from?
Naturally, they are not willing to do this. Their goal is to turn their lintel into a famous family.
I heard Xi Yu say this.
"What do you think of Xuzhou?"
Perhaps Tao Qian chose Liu Bei because of this.
"I don't have any objections!"
Cheng Yu smiled and nodded, and the eyes of the three of them immediately fell on Cao Cao.
The latter's eyelids twitched.
What does this mean?!
Do you think that I, Lao Cao, am not a benevolent and righteous person? -
Chapter completed!
