In addition to these, he also learned from the players that Yan Xiang was a loyal minister and loyal to him. However, it was because he did not listen to him that he was ultimately defeated.
As for the Yang Hong in front of him, he also learned from the players that Yang Hong had done many bad things and had many bad ideas. It could be said that his defeat had a lot to do with Yang Hong.
Yuan Shu knew all these things very well. He knew who was a loyal minister and who was a bad guy. This feeling was very enjoyable.
Whenever Yang Hong speaks, Yuan Shu will think in his heart that he is a bad person and what he says cannot be trusted. I must not listen to him.
However, although I couldn't listen to what he said, if I thought about it carefully, some of Yang Hong's words still made some sense.
For example, when attacking Xuzhou, Yang Hong once said that it must be defeated in order to expand the territory of Huainan. This is exactly what he thought.
Therefore, Yuan Shu decided that although Yang Hong was not a good person, some of his words were right. If he only listened to what was right and not what was wrong, wouldn't everything be settled?
Many kings knew that their ministers were bad ministers, but they kept re-employing them because they were sure to control these bad people to do useful things for themselves.
Are you not as good as those kings?
impossible!
Yuan Shu felt that he was much stronger than those kings. At least he could distinguish between good and bad, and knew right from wrong. Most importantly, he also knew the direction of history and had obtained powerful tools. I am afraid that no emperor could be as good as him.
Therefore, he knew that Yang Hong was a bad guy, but he still reused him. This gave him the feeling of a wise king, controlling his ministers and coordinating the overall situation. Isn't this feeling exactly what he wanted.
The standard of a wise king is to be able to appoint hundreds of people, distinguish between good and bad, and make the most correct choice.
Yuan Shu felt that he was such a wise king, so he felt free to use Yang Hong, a bad guy.
As for the Yan Xiang who was speaking in front of him, Yuan Shu also knew what kind of person he was.
Players say that Yan Xiang is a loyal minister and worthy of trust.
However, Yuan Shu always believed that no matter how smart Yan Xiang was, he would still make mistakes. Therefore, he would choose to listen to what Yan Xiang said was right. As for what was wrong, he could only forget about it.
In addition, the way Yan Xiang held his neck while talking really made Yuan Shu annoying.
No matter what you say is right or wrong, at least in front of me, there is no need to be so rude!
If Yuan Shu hadn't entered the game and knew who Yan Xiang was, he would have kicked him out long ago because of his posture.
Yuan Shu looked at Yan Xiang and Yang Hong in front of him, and felt more and more that he was wise and could move between good and bad people with ease. In this world, who else could there be besides me?
Yan Xiang raised his hands and said, "My lord, our army attacked Xuzhou and returned with disastrous defeats several times and was severely weakened.
However, Jingzhou soldiers and horses have been recuperating. This time they sent troops to Huainan, taking the route along the border of Chen State, and there were rumors that Liu Xuande, the former Xuzhou shepherd, was among the troops. "
At this point, Yan Xiang handed over his hand again, "My lord, I believe that although Jingzhou soldiers and horses have come to Huainan, the place they really want to go to should be Xuzhou."
When Yuan Shu heard these words, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he secretly praised Yan Xiang in his heart that this old guy really had a lot on his mind, "Master Yan, what you said makes sense."
Yan Xiang was overjoyed when he saw that Yuan Shu listened to him for the first time. He hurriedly raised his hands again and said, "My lord, Jingzhou Liu Jingsheng and Liu Xuande are both Liu family members. If I guessed correctly, it is very likely that Jingzhou Liu Jingsheng wants to avenge Xuzhou Liu Xuande." , this dispatch of troops is most likely to recapture Xuzhou, not to attack Huainan."
Yuan Shu thought about it carefully and realized that it did make sense. He nodded, "Master Yan, you are right. From this point of view, Jingzhou Liu Jingsheng's target should really be Xuzhou."
A smile appeared on Yan Xiang's face, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, since their goal is Xuzhou, why not let them pass? Cao Mengde of Xuzhou is not an easy person. Once the two sides fight, it will definitely be fierce. In the end, maybe, Both sides suffer.
No matter who wins or loses on both sides, they will eventually lose their troops and generals. By then, it will be easy for our army to capture Xuzhou. "
When Yuan Shu heard Yan Xiang's analysis, he thought about it, nodded, and was about to speak when Yang Hong suddenly spoke.
"Lord, you must not do this!"
Well!
Yuan Shu didn't understand why Yang Hong still raised issues with such a good plan, and asked in confusion, "Yang Zheng, is there any problem in this?"
Yang Hong cupped his hands and said with a solemn expression, "My lord, your ambition is world-wide and your fame is known to the world. This is why talented people from all over the world come to join you."
At this point, Yang Hong sighed and said, "My lord, if we let Jingzhou's soldiers and horses pass by like this, and our army does not send a single soldier, those who know, the way of nature, this is your master's clever plan."
However, if it spreads to the ears of the world, I am afraid that the lord will not dare to send troops to fight when he hears that Jingzhou troops are coming.
The ambitious people in the world originally wanted to defect to the lord, but when they heard that Jingzhou soldiers and horses had arrived in Huainan, the lord did not dare to send troops to fight against them. Then I am afraid that not only would they not come to defect, but they would also secretly make fun of the lord's cowardice. The gain outweighs the loss! "
When Yuan Shu heard what Yang Hong said, his expression changed and he snorted, "Nonsense, who dares to laugh at me?"
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
Yang Hong had a solemn look on his face and said, "My lord, the Jingzhou army has arrived in Huainan. If our army does not dare to fight, I am afraid they will be laughed at!"
Hearing these words, Yuan Shudu frowned gradually.
He suddenly realized that what Yang Hong said seemed to make sense!
If he didn't go to war, the people of the world would definitely laugh at him for being cowardly. Knowing that Jingzhou's soldiers and horses came to Huainan, he could only hide and dare not go to war.
If everyone in the world knew about this, who would be willing to come to him in the future?
Yan Xiang, who was originally full of joy, saw Yuan Shu hesitate and waver, and hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his hand, "My lord, you must not do this. If our army fights, we will miss a good opportunity."
Yang Hong frowned and suddenly sneered, "Master Yan, even if Jingzhou's troops really go to Xuzhou this time, so what?
If Jingzhou soldiers and horses are allowed to pass, and they end up uniting with Xuzhou Cao Mengde, wouldn't Huainan be in danger by then?
If this is the result, not only will our army miss a good opportunity, but most importantly, the lord's reputation will be damaged. This is the most regrettable thing! "
Yuan Shu watched the two arguing, but did not say anything to stop it. Instead, he thought quickly in his heart about how to choose!
What they both said is reasonable. If you follow Yan Xiang's method, you may indeed reap the benefits, but it may not work.
