Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

"There is a strategy." Guo Tu suddenly said.

Yuan Shao gasped for a few rough breaths, and said slowly: "Gong Ze has any tactics, let's listen."

There was a smile on Guo Tu's face: "In addition to Jushou and Gongsundu, the lord can still instruct tens of thousands of troops. As long as these tens of thousands of troops come, it will be natural to force Liu Ye away."

Where did the tens of thousands of troops come from? Hearing Guo Tu’s words, Yuan Shao immediately became interested: “Don’t sell the princes. Where are the tens of thousands of troops coming from? Tell me quickly.”

"Haha..." Guo Tu smiled: "Didn't the lord have invited Shan Yu Jinyin for Yu Dun, Su Puyan, Wu Yan and others not long ago? Yu Dun and others have always been grateful to the lord. It's time for them to repay the lord."

"The lord can send the Yuyang County and Shanggu County in the border area to the Wuhuan Wranglers, in exchange for them to send troops to the south to help our army." Guo Tu said eloquently: "They can use Liu Yuqing to control the court and raise the emperor. Going south in the name, sending troops to the king, three counties Wuhuan riding and shooting armor in the world, not inferior to Gongsun Zan's white horse Yicong, with their help, wouldn't it be easy to drive Liu Ye away?"

"Yeah..." Yuan Shao looked thoughtful and stroked his chin and beard, obviously thinking about the pros and cons.

"No!" The trial was the first to oppose: "The generation of barbarians is not worthy of belief, but the weak is attached to China, and the strong is the wolf's ambition, trying to enter the bandit. On that day, the Huns surrounded the ancestors of Baideng. Huh?"

"Wuhuan people's wolf ambition is not enough to believe, let them enter Jizhou, I am afraid that they will be overwhelmed, and the people will complain, absolutely not." Xun Chen also solemnly said.

Not to mention the barbarians, even the local army sometimes inevitably beats rabbits and kills well. These Wuhuan people were even more brutal and brutal. They burned, killed, looted, killed the people, and robbed food on the border many times. Jizhou is prosperous, and these Wuhuan people enter Jizhou, so they can't looting?

The trial was a native of Jizhou, who naturally did not want to watch his hometown being slaughtered by the Wuhuan people. Xun Chen has also lived in Jizhou for many years, so naturally he does not want to see Jizhou beings smashed.

"But if you don't invite the Wuhuan people, what can Mr. Youruo and Mr. Zhengnan have to defeat Liu Ye's Liangzhou army?" Guo Tu coldly said: "Someone knows that Mr. Youruo and Mr. Zhengnan cherish feathers, so they spoke. Not to mention that I am worried that the Wuhuan people will burn, kill, looting and looting to affect their reputation, but I am not afraid of Mr. Guo!"

"Wuhuan people are inevitably burned, killed, looted and looted. Everyone knows it. Don't I know Guo Tu?" Guo Tu said to Yuan Shao: "Please tell the Lord, everyone knows the heart and nature of Wuhuan people, but it is a big thing. It’s not trivial. Several emperors shot down the Yueqi Camp in Luoyang. The knights in the camp were all Hu people. It can be seen that Hu people are not incapable of being used by the Lord."

"For the great cause, we must make certain sacrifices. After defeating Liu Ye, the lord can exempt some people in Jizhou from taxation." Guo Tuzheng said, "presumably the people will understand the lord's heart of the king."

"Well, it makes sense."

Yuan Shao actually recognized Guo Tu's suggestion very much. The reason why he was not sure was because he was concerned about his reputation. However, Guo Tu was so frank in undertaking the infamy, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

"Gongze really is a loyal person." Yuan Shao sighed: "You are right. In the future, certain people in Jizhou will be exempted from taxes by half."

When Guo Tu heard this, he understood that Yuan Shao was ready to adopt his own suggestion, bowed his head, and said with joy: "The lord is kind, and I am willing to do the work of the lord."

Yuan Shaoyue looked at Guo Tu more pleasingly, and said that he was not capable, but this loyalty to himself was rare. It seemed that Guo Tu must be reused.

The trial brows frowned. Since Yuan Shao made the decision, naturally there is no way to change it. As a result, the people of Jizhou will inevitably suffer, alas!

But now that the lord has decided, the trial and marriage is not easy to say, so he has to lower his head.

"Okay!" Yuan Shao looked around and said loudly: "If this is the case, then hand over to the two counties of Shanggu and Yuyang to Daun and others, and ask them to send troops south."

In fact, even though it was a cession, Yuan Shao didn't need to pay any price. Shanggu and Yuyang County were occupied by Wuhuan people long ago. Long before the heroes challenged Dong, the brothers Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju once occupied Yuyang County and proclaimed their emperor, colluding with the Wuhuan people, and were later defeated by Gongsun Zan.

After Gongsun Zan’s defeat, although Yuan Shao sent his second son Yuan Xi to govern Youzhou for the governor, he was actually under his jurisdiction only Zhuo County and Youbei Ping County in the south of Youzhou. Shanggu and Yuyang had long become Wuhuan. People's territory, but there is no explicit stipulation.

Sending out two counties that are not under control is equivalent to an empty glove white wolf. This kind of good business is naturally done, but the barbaric Wuhuan must inevitably have to burn, kill, and looting along the way, and Yuan Shao can only stand by. I closed one eye.

"Envoy Wuhuan discusses the dispatch of troops, who is willing to share the worries for me?" Yuan Shao looked around and slowly said.

Many counsellors on the left and right are embarrassed. Even Guo Tu is not eager to speak. After all, the Wuhuan people are barbarians. Who is willing to deal with barbarians if not necessary?

Yuan Shao's brows sank: "Could it be that the princes don't want to share the worries with me?"

After all, Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu: Since the suggestion was made by you and no one is willing to go now, then you go. Isn't Guo Tu willing to be shackled for me?

Seeing Yuan Shao's gaze came over, Guo Tu didn't know what he meant, gritted his teeth, and just about to come forward, someone took the lead.

"If the lord does not give up, You are willing to take the place of the lord Wuhuan!"

Everyone took a closer look and saw that the speaker was not someone else, it was Xu You. The advisers on the left and right were surprised. Xu You has always been profiteering. How can he be willing to go to Wuhuan for such unpleasant things?

Seeing Xu You leaving the queue, Yuan Shao nodded in satisfaction, and smiled: "Zi Yuan deserves to be my loyal minister of the Yuan clan. If this is the case, Yuan Keri will set off to get into the tent as soon as possible, understand?"

"Promise." Xu You arched his hands: "You will definitely live up to the lord's trust, please rest assured."

It turns out that when Xu You saw Guo Tu’s suggestion just now, he understood in his heart: Guo Gong is really smart, and the more critical the moment, the more he has to pour dirty water on himself for the lord, so that he can be reused by the lord.

So when he heard who was willing to go to Wuhuan, Xu You agreed without thinking. As long as Wuhuan soldiers and horses are successfully invited to go south, and when the time comes to join the ranks, how can they be rewarded with gold and silver?

"In addition, order Jushou to withdraw slowly, exit Bingzhou as soon as possible, and block Huguan." Yuan Shao ordered again.
