"Gongsun Zan!" Yuan Shao was also a little excited when he heard Guo Tu mentioned that after taking Gongsun Zan and taking Jizhou completely.
Especially since Yuan Hong came to join us, even if Yuan Hong has not taken action personally, Yuan Shao has made some mistakes in his recent battle with Gongsun Zan due to Yuan Hong's few sworn brothers. A winning streak.
Now, the only regret for Yuan Shao is that Yuan Sheng, a master in the Yuan family who is equal to Yuan Hong, actually took refuge in Yuan Shu, the second generation ancestor. Otherwise, it may be difficult for him, Yuan Shao, Yuan Hong to the left, and Yuan Sheng to the right to sweep the world, but who in Hebei can stop him.
"Bo Yuan, what do you think?" Although Yuan Shao was indeed a little moved by Guo Tu's suggestion, he couldn't help but asked after seeing Cui Hao who was still there calmly.
Cui Hao is Yuan Shao's first adviser. He is good at doing things and is deeply trusted by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao may not absolutely listen to Cui Hao's opinion on some important matters, but he will always ask Cui Hao first.
"Master, what do you think the strength of Gongsun Yang and Gongsun Shu is?" Cui Hao did not express his thoughts, but asked rhetorically.
"He is a fierce general in this world! But I have generals Yuan Hong and Jiao Ying in my hands, so there is nothing to worry about!" Yuan Shao said calmly.
Needless to say, Gongsun Yang was a veteran and fierce general. When Yuan Hong came, every time he dealt with Gongsun Yang, his four pillars had to work together. Gongsun Shu was not simple either. Apart from Yuan Hong, Yuan Shao's subordinates were led by Jiao Ying, who was at the peak of his abilities, but these two were evenly matched.
"What do you think of Qin Zheng and Liu Bang, my lord?" Cui Hao continued to ask.
"Hero!" This time, Yuan Shao spoke slowly after being silent for a moment.
At this period, Yuan Shao had not even captured the entire Jizhou, and he did not look like he regarded the whole world as nothing. What's more, the backgrounds of Liu Bang and Qin Zheng are no worse than that of Yuan Benchu, and he has no right to be proud of them just because of their origins.
"Today, I still have Gongsun Zan lingering in Jizhou, Qin Zheng and Liu Bang are eyeing him in Youzhou, and Guo Wei, Liu Bei, and Dou Jiande are standing in Qingzhou. These three people are not ordinary people. My lord, can I be sure that before King Li Xiang of Jin conquers Yongliang two states? Take down the three lands of Jiyouqing?"
After a long silence, Yuan Shao, who was sitting on the main seat, slowly opened his mouth and said, "The lonely king understands Boyuan's meaning."
Cui Hao's three questions completely dispelled Yuan Shao's idea of unifying the three states of Hebei. With his current strength, it is not an easy task to unify the three states of Hebei, Youqing.
Even if he can really do this, it will definitely be a protracted matter. If we had waited until that time, I am afraid that Li Xiang would have already captured Yongliang Prefecture.
And if Li Xiang had waited until he captured the two states of Yongliang, how could he have watched Yuan Shao, who was caught in the war, and did nothing, allowing Yuan Shao to unify the three states of Hebei and grow into a giant!
"My Lord, it seems that the four princes of Yongliang, Yang Jian, Fu Jian, Ma Teng, and Han Sui, are not as powerful as the attacking Jin King Li Zifeng, but Li Zifeng is more handsome and more powerful. In fact, this is already This is a huge advantage. Besides, the four princes, Yang Jian, Fu Jian, Ma Teng, and Han Sui, have many conflicts, so how can there be no flaws in their cooperation!"
"In addition to Li Zifeng's troops attacking Yongliang, he still has heavy troops stationed in the three states of Hebingsi. If no one can restrain this part of his troops, once Li Zifeng mobilizes these troops, Yongliang will be defeated. I'm afraid Erzhou will really fall into the hands of that Li Zifeng!" Cui Hao said seriously while thinking about the possible situation in the world next.
"Yes, my lord, the people of Bingliang and Liangzhou are strong and fierce, and there are endless elite soldiers and brave generals. He, Si, and Yong are fertile lands that can be the granary of the world, and both Bingliang and Yongzhou are protected by majestic gates. If we really wait until Li Zifeng and Tiger take over, The five states of Si, He, Yong, and Liang, by then, unless all the princes in the world join forces, who will be able to defeat them?" Xu You said with the same serious expression.
It has to be said that although Xu You has many minor flaws, such as being ostentatious and showing off, he often said that he and Mr. Yuan were old friends and had an extraordinary relationship. When they hung out together, others didn't know where they were hanging out. Coming. Another example is that Xu Youai takes advantage of others and is greedy for small fortunes.
But at the same time, Xu You is also a great strategist who is rich in strategy. Xu You sees the world situation no less than others, and Xu You also knows very well what to do.
At the same time, Xu You had made good friends with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others when he was young. With such a friendship, Yuan Shao could always listen to Xu You's opinions.
Now, Cui Hao, Xu You and even Ju Shou and others have proposed sending troops to contain Li Xiang, which gave Yuan Shao some confidence. However, given Yuan Qi's somewhat indecisive temperament, he always had to think more about this matter.
"Gu Yi wants to send troops to join the army, but I'm afraid that after we send troops, Gongsun Xiao'er will take advantage of the opportunity and come in!" Yuan Shao said with some worry.
"My lord, why not join forces with Gongsun Zan and send troops to Hulao or Huguan!" Xu You said with a slightly moved expression.
"Although Ziyuan's words are kind, I'm afraid that Gongsun Xiao'er won't easily join forces with us!" Yuan Shao said with a frown.
Both Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan wanted to unify the entire Jizhou. Therefore, in the past few years, the two sides had constant battles and small battles, and they had already started to fight. Even if Yuan Shao wanted to take the initiative to ally with Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan would not easily agree.
"My lord, the bustle in the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is all for profit. My lord can send an envoy to Gongsun Zan to invite him to attack Si Bing. After the event is completed, Sizhou will return to the lord, and Bingzhou will return to Gongsun Zan. Then How could Gongsun Zan refuse to join forces with his lord!" Xu You said with a smile.
"In this case, wouldn't it be an advantage for Gongsun Zan!" Yuan Shao was a little unhappy.
When Yuan Shao thought about it, Li Xiang was already at war with the four princes of Yongliang. If he and Gongsun Zan took action, Li Xiang would be caught off guard. Moreover, there are many princes in the world who are not willing to let Li Xiang develop further. When the time comes, there may be other princes who will take action.
Therefore, there is still a high possibility that they can really invade Si Bing this time. It is nothing to give Gongsun Zan a state, but after the state is merged, there is still Hezhou, and Hezhou cannot be easily surrendered to others.
"Lord, the swords are ruthless on this battlefield, so any accident is normal!" This time it was not Xu You who spoke, but Cui Haoyi who said pointedly.
Different from what Yuan Shao thought, in Cui Hao's view, it was enough to prevent Li Xiang from taking Yongliang this time and do some tricks on Gongsun Zan. As for breaking into Si Bing's land, Cui Hao didn't have high hopes.
Sizhou is protected by eight passes, while Bingzhou is protected by the eight paths of Taihang. How can it be so easy to break into these two places! Without careful planning, it is almost impossible.
Unless they can concentrate their forces to focus on one area, there is still some chance.
"Okay, what Ziyuan and Boyuan said makes sense, please contact Gongsun Zan quickly. This time, Gu will send out all the troops from Jizhou and force Si to merge with the two states." With the counselors under his command coming out one after another to increase their confidence, at this time , Yuan Shao finally strengthened his belief, stood up, and said energetically.
