Not to mention the rapid development of Gongsun in recent years, it is estimated that the population is not much.

If this place is defeated, he wants to recruit 50,000 soldiers and train them, which should not be a problem.

Fighting with Cao Cao, his current men and horses in Youzhou are definitely not enough, everyone knows this in their hearts, but he can't increase soldiers and horses at will, Yuan Shao is still there, too unscrupulous, there will never be any good results.

The current population of Youzhou, if you raise it for another year or two, it is not too much to get together 200,000 horses, and in this era, the number of people is as important as weapons.

"Is there any specific news about Gongsun Du of Liaodong?"

If there is a war with Liaodong, Yuan Xi will definitely not be willing to forcibly attack, which will be too much for him to gain more than he loses.

"Naturally, I discussed this matter with Fengxiao, and I felt that taking Liaodong could not be forcibly obtained, and we had to use both soft and hard, otherwise even if we get a year or two of recuperation, it will be a waste of foundation in this battle. If we can win it safely, not only will our territory expand, but it will also be Gongsun Du's soldiers and resources, and it will also be a super help for my Youzhou. ”

"Then how do you outwit Youzhou?" Yuan Xi couldn't think of any good way to take Youzhou without blood.

"Hehe," Xu Shu laughed loudly: "On the surface, there is still a need for fanfare, as for the specifics." Feng Xiao and I already have a plan in our hearts, and we will submit the detailed plan tomorrow. ”

Yuan Xi stroked his palms and sighed: "The two of you are really talented, and it is really my blessing for Yuan Xi to get the help of the two of them." ”

After glancing at Xu Shu, Guo Jia deliberately said: "Since the lord said so, why don't you reward some beauties with me?" lest I go to the green building every once in a while. ”

Yuan Xi silently got up and walked back to his seat, and said to Qu Zhiyun who was on the side: "What's the matter, this time should come, Zhiyun, you go and take a look." ”

Qu Zhiyun covered her mouth and chuckled, and walked down with her willow waist.

Guo Jia looked at Qu Zhiyun's back, and sighed at Xu Shu: "A little girl is almost the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, I said that the lord's mansion is full of beautiful women, you still don't believe it." ”

Xu Shu smiled and said nothing, Yuan Xi was also quite speechless, this Guo Jia was the same as him, that is, extremely lustful, but unlike him, Guo Jia was very lazy, neither wanted to get married, nor wanted to find a woman, whenever there was a need, either complain to him, or go to the Qinglou, Yuan Xi has been to his house a few times, and the family is still the same people sent before. There is not even a female personal maid.

For this kind of eccentric character, Yuan Xi really doesn't understand, it's really not good, let the next person buy a dozen maids and come back, isn't it cooler than going to Qinglou every day? It's not that there is no money.

All this, Yuan Xi is regarded as invisible, and can only attribute Guo Jia to laziness, and even more terrible things, Xu Shu sent him a maid, and he didn't want to...

As long as Yuan Xi's is moving, he will complain in his ear.

But Yuan Xi is generous to everything under his subordinates, that is, he is very stingy with women, even if there are nearly a thousand women in his house, he is still a dime.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that Guo Jia is similar, but the form of expression is different.

Otherwise, how can there be a lord, so stingy, even a maid is reluctant to give it?

A few people were casually talking about something when there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Yuan Xi looked at it and saw Qu Zhiyun in front and Chen Gong behind, and the two walked in one after the other.

"The grass people have seen Yuan Zhoumu." Chen Gong entered the hall and bowed deeply.

"Hurry up and excuse me, why do you need to make such a big gift." Yuan Xi hurriedly walked out from behind the case and helped him up.

Chen Gong was also not polite, and got up with a smile.

Yuan Xi didn't talk nonsense with him, pointed to Guo Jia and Xu Shu who had already stood up, and enthusiastically introduced: "Come, Gongtai, let me introduce you, this is Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, this is Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi." ”

The person Yuan Xi values is a well-known genius, although Guo Jia and Xu Shu think very highly of themselves, they don't dare to slack off, and they are busy bowing together.

Chen Gong glanced at the two of them lightly, and had a slight impression of Xu Shu, who looked like an honest man with a loyal appearance, but he had a very bad impression of Guo Jia, who was obviously a little overly drunk.

But it didn't show itself either.

"Chen Gong has seen the two." After all, it was Yuan Xi's subordinates, the two most important strategists, Chen Gong hugged his fists and returned the salute.

Chen Gong's arrogance, Xu Shu and Guo Jia can obviously feel it, but both of them are broad-minded people and don't care.

Yuan Xi took the three of them to the inner room, and said with a smile: "The three of them are pleased, we will all work together in the future, so there is no need to be restrained, I have prepared some wine and food for the three of them, and the three of them can talk freely in the inner room and talk about their ambitions and ideals." ”

Xu Shu and Guo Jia didn't expect Yuan Xi to be so well prepared, their eyes were a little bright, although they also had some money, but it was all rewarded by Yuan Xi, if they were spent, they would only be able to use their money, and they were both honest people, so they would naturally use money carefully in addition to necessary expenses.

Therefore, being able to come to Yuan's Mansion for a meal is undoubtedly great news for them.

With such good food and wine, they don't know if they can eat it for half a month.

Let the three of them sit down, Yuan Xi said a few words, and he didn't plan to stay, and was about to leave, when Chen Gong stopped him: "Yuan Zhou is slow." ”

The three of them all looked at him, but their expressions were different, Yuan Xi didn't know what was going on with him, Guo Jia and Xu Shu only heard it now, Chen Gong didn't call the lord...

"Gongtai, what's the matter?"

Chen Gong got up and said apologetically: "Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are still outside the courtyard, the lord may be able to go and see them." ”

Yuan Xi clenched his fists, and his face showed excitement: "Don't talk about the public platform, I almost delayed the big event, you talk, I'll go to meet the two generals." ”

Chen Gong smiled at this time.

Yuan Xi walked out of the inner room, and his footsteps kept walking outside.

Qu Zhiyun was slightly stunned and hurriedly followed.

As soon as he came outside, Yuan Xi really saw two men standing not far away.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun He has seen them, they haven't seen each other for a long time, and when he sees the two again, he feels different in his heart, for Gao Shun, Yuan Xi has never felt that he can be subdued, but by coincidence, not only did he get Chen Gong, but he actually put Gao Shun, who was very good at charging into battle, and he had no intention of getting it, which made him feel happy than getting 10,000 soldiers and horses.

"Wenyuan, Zizhong," Yuan Xi stepped forward and grabbed the arms of the two, laughing: "I finally have the two of you here." ”

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun didn't expect Yuan Xi to value themselves so much, and they were a little flattered for a while.

Hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "The grass people have seen Yuan Zhoumu. ”
