Yuan Shao took a step and walked back and forth, and seemed to have a difficult decision to make.
Xu You stood aside and waited quietly.
After a long time, Yuan Shao stopped and stood in front of Xu You.
"Ziyuan, Liu Xie's son went to Taiyuan. Could he want to go to Changshan from Jingxing to echo Liu He?"
Xu You bowed and said, "The lord is far-reaching, and I am also worried. I heard from you that Liu Xieyuan's old minister was very close to Yang Feng, who was born in Baibo. Baibo can be used, and Heishan is no exception. Zhong
Yao was in Shangdang, so he had contacts with Zhang Yan. Zhang Yan was originally from Changshan. If Liu Xie left Jingxing and entered Changshan, he would have a great disadvantage to me."
Yuan Shao nodded repeatedly. "How to crack it?"
Xu You pondered for a moment, raised his head, and said seriously: "Is the lord willing to let Liu He go to Youzhou?"
Yuan Shao's eyes flashed slightly. "Should I let him go?"
"It shouldn't be." Xu You said: "But Liu He relied on having the imperial edict in his hand and would not let him leave. There would be criticism. According to the opinions of his ministers, it would be better to make an appointment with him. If he could lead the heroes of Youzhou and break them within a specified period of time.
Gongsun Zan supported him in charge of Youzhou."
Yuan Shao's eyes rolled. "Two tigers fight?"
Xu You nodded.
After careful consideration, Yuan Shao reluctantly accepted Xu You's suggestion.
If Liu He doesn't leave, the problem will not be solved. It is a good idea to make an agreement with Liu He and let him exhaust the human and material resources of Youzhou and remove Gongsun Zan's heart.
Gongsun Zan was also the force the court wanted to fight for. If he was killed by Liu He, the court would probably be unsatisfied with Liu He.
But for Liu He, Gongsun Zan was a murderer of his father, and there was absolutely no reason not to kill him.
This may be an opportunity to disagree with him and the court.
The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more he felt it made sense, and then he asked Xu You to test Liu He's meaning.
With a sudden shout, Liu He jumped up and stabbed his sword straight.
The heavy ring-headed sword was as light as a sword in his hand.
"Cai!" The cheers came from behind.
Liu He turned around and looked back. Seeing Xu You clapping his hands, he walked over, quickly put his knife into the sheath and bowed his hand.
"I don't know if Xu Jun is coming, he is rude and rude."
Xu You laughed and patted the long sword on his waist. "Young man Gongheng is very skilled, You didn't feel itchy. Try your hand, how?"
Liu He said he didn't dare to say that he shook his hand and refused. "Who doesn't know that Xu Jun's swordsmanship is outstanding and a master of the world. My Xu skills are not the opponent of Xu Jun. Xu Jun, please take a seat in the hall."
Xu You didn't insist, he came to Liu He to compete in swords.
The two of them sat in the hall, and Liu He ordered people to prepare food and drink. Xu You looked at Liu He and said with a smile: "Look at Gongheng's attack just now, is there any unpleasantness in his heart?"
Liu He sighed. "I dare not hide it from the elder. My father was killed by Gongsun Zan and has not yet taken revenge. I am ashamed of being a son of man, and I can only practice swords and swords. I hope one day I can kill my enemies."
"Gongheng's filial piety is commendable, but he is a little too impatient. Don't you hear that a gentleman will take revenge for ten years?" Xu You paused for a moment and said again: "Is it more difficult to kill Gongsun Zan to avenge his father than to accept the emperor's return to the east."
?The emperor has returned to the east, and your father’s revenge will be avenged soon."
Liu He's heart moved slightly.
Although he left Chang'an and returned eastward by the emperor's edict, the emperor's escape today has nothing to do with him. Xu You confused the two things, so naturally it was not to say that the emperor would return eastward, but to say that his chance to take revenge had come.
"I hope this is the case." Liu He bowed respectfully. "I dare to ask Xu Jun to teach you."
"Gongheng, in the battle of Baoqiu, you defeated Gongsun Zan. Your place will definitely win, and Weizhen is in the northern border. Now Gongsun Zan is trapped in Yijing and is waiting for death. Why can't you achieve success for a long time?"
Liu He smiled bitterly.
He and Que Yi led their troops to besiege Yi Jing and gained an advantage. They thought that revenge was about to be imminent, but because of the continuous food and supplies, they had to retreat.
Xu You couldn't be unclear about the reason for this, but now he came to ask him how to answer it?
He couldn't tell Xu You that it was Yuan Shao who cut off my food and grass and did not want me to make contributions?
To be honest, he himself didn't believe it.
But that's the truth.
Due to poor food and grass, he had to disperse the Han and Hu cavalry in Youzhou first, and then let Xian Yufu and others leave. In the end, only a few thousand people were left to confront Gongsun Zan. Even so, Yuan Shao still could not supply food and grass in time, so he and Lu
Yi was unable to retreat, so he was chased by Gongsun Zan, lost all the heavy cars and returned in a mess.
If Yuan Shao could supply grain and grass in time, why did this happen?
He has never understood Yuan Shao’s thoughts.
"Gongheng, you are still too young." Xu You sighed. "It is useless to ask for fish from a tree, but it is also harmful. Don't you understand such a truth?"
Liu Heng was stunned for a moment. "Xu Jun, you mean..."
"The emperor issued an edict, calling the lord the prefect of Bohai, but he appointed you as the general of the Northern Expedition and the governor of Youzhou. It is clearly a plan of separation. If you don't understand the reason, you ask for leave with the edict. How can you do what you wish?"
Liu He was very surprised. "Is it true that the emperor calls the leader of the Bohai Prefect?"
Xu You sighed.
Liu He suddenly realized in his heart and let out a sigh of relief.
After receiving the edict, Yuan Shao was furious and felt ashamed, but he did not dare to make it public.
One is afraid of people making jokes, and the other is that they are afraid that Han Fu's old official will cause trouble because of this.
So there was a rumor outside, but no one dared to say it openly. Liu He was neither from Jizhou nor Yuan Shao was close to him. Although he heard some rumor, he didn't know whether it was true or false.
Even if he knows, he will pretend not to know.
But when Xu You made the words clear at this moment, he naturally understood Xu You's purpose.
Yuan Shao didn't want him to take charge of Youzhou, but Xu You wanted to help him.
"Xu Jun, then what should I do?" Liu He left the seat and gave a deep salute.
Xu You took advantage of the situation to reveal his plans.
Gongsun Zan is still fighting when he traps beasts. Without the support of Jizhou, it will be difficult for you to take down Gongsun Zan by relying solely on the manpower and material resources of Youzhou. It is better to ask Yuan Shao to send Yuan Tan as the main general and you as the deputy to attack Gongsun Zan together to reassure Yuan Shao.
Liu He was a little embarrassed.
He felt that although Yuan Tan was smart, he was too young and had insufficient combat experience. The battlefield was dangerous and there would inevitably be damage. As Yuan Tan's eldest son, it was really not suitable to take risks.
It would be better to let Kuo Yi help him.
They cooperated well in the previous battles and the effect was also good.
During the Battle of Jieqiao, Kuo Yi became famous in the battle, and his deterrence to Gongsun Zan was definitely not comparable to Yuan Tan.
Xu You sneered and looked at Liu He without saying a word.
Liu He was helpless and thought about it, but in the end he had to accept Xu You's suggestion.
He has no other choice.
Xu You's plan may not allow him to become the governor of Youzhou, but it gives him a chance to take revenge.
The hatred of killing your father is irreconcilable.
Others will be discussed later.
Liu He immediately wrote a letter in his hand, hoping that Yuan Shao would appoint Yuan Tan as a general and he would be the deputy, and jointly take Gongsun Zan.
In order to express his gratitude, he gave Xu You a generous gift.
Everyone in Yecheng knows that Xu You is greedy for money.
