Yuan Shang is very similar to Yuan Shao, not just the appearance of imagination, but in many ways are surprisingly similar, especially in some major events, he will focus on the people's livelihood, and this is the most important point that Yuan Shao values him most and wants to make him the son, but Yuan Shang has never become a successor, he knows that this is those old stubborn insistence, adhere to the traditional dogma of standing up for the heirs and not for the young.

So on the road to becoming the son of the world, it seems to be a thoroughfare, but in fact, this road is full of thorns, he not only needs to judge this sword in the military, but also needs a shield, of course, if possible, it is best to come to a fast horse, this metaphor is very vivid, in Yuan Shang's words, the shield is Yan Liangwen Chou, and the fast horse is undoubtedly Fu Zhu, Tian Feng and Xun Chen.

The three masterminds around his father, if there are three of them, then everything will be simple, but he was frustrated that Tian Feng was originally under the influence of the Hebei scholars, but in this matter, they had a disagreement with the Hebei scholars, and even turned against each other, Yuan Shang knew that there was no hope of getting the support of these two, and he could only turn to Xun Chen, who had an unclear attitude.

Although he is from the Yingchuan lineage, although the Yingchuan family has a close relationship with the eldest brother, what can he do? You should always try it, otherwise the general will not have a BMW, although it does not prevent the killing and fighting, but in the end, the momentum and image will be slightly inferior.

And this time, when his father left Jizhou, he could do everything in Jizhou by himself. When he had the final say, Yuan Shanglai found Xun Chen, and asked him for advice on many issues, these things were originally told by his father before leaving, but there was no Xun Chen among the candidates, but he still took the initiative to come to the door, and he would not expect Xun Chen to have any high-minded talk about some government affairs, after all, the solutions are nothing more than a few, everyone can think of it, but it is just to choose a radical solution or a step-by-step way among the three strategies, but for the general trend of the world, the situation in Kanto, these aspects, someone needs to be able to solve his doubts and help。

There may be a lot of these people, a Yecheng, even if you can't find a thousand, you can pull out eight hundred, the Yuan family for hundreds of years is not a few acres of thin fields in Runan, but connections and relationships, there are no ancients before the four generations and five dukes, and the protégé and the protégé promote the protégé of the Yuan family, and it is under such a gathering that the talent Yuan Shao can do a hundred responses.

After all, in this era, knowledge is only in the hands of a few people, and these knowledgeable and thoughtful people naturally want to gather around them, so there are not a few people who can solve Yuan Shang's doubts in Yecheng, but he needs to contact Xun Chen to listen to his high opinions.

In fact, in terms of the general trend of the world, the most unexpected is undoubtedly the alliance between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, if you really want to talk about it, the grudge between the two will not be less than the hatred for Liu Lan, but in front of Liu Lan, the common enemy, they can abandon all grievances, although they dare not say that they can put their hearts together, but after all, they can work together.

Xun Chen was a little surprised when he first heard about this matter, but if he thought about it carefully, there were no eternal enemies and no eternal friends, this truth has been true since ancient times, and now it seems to be very close, but what about in the future? This sentence had a great impact on Yuan Shang at this moment, because Xun Chen gave Cao Cao an example.

He thought about it very seriously, it was true, they used to be very close to Cao Cao, but now they could have a war with Cao Cao at any time, although they were not on the verge of war, but after a year or even a few years, who could guarantee it? It's like Yuan Shu and Cao Cao back then, it's hard to imagine that they can actually unite now.

Xun Chen smiled and said: "Gongzi is right, you see that Cao Cao and Liu Lan seem to be immortal now, but do you know that when they were courting Dong, Cao Cao and Liu Lan were very close, and Liu Lan was not qualified to ally with the princes at that time, if it wasn't for Cao Cao's invitation to transfer him to his own army, even Liu Lan would not have a place among the princes."

But now, under the circumstances at that time, can you think of it, this is the change of interests, so that the situation has changed, the same, who can guarantee that a few years later, when we attack Cao Cao, Liu Lanhui will ally with Cao Cao again, or we attack Liu Lan this time, Cao Cao suddenly turned to Liu Lan, at that time, do you think General Wen Chou and Gao Ran can still have a chance of winning?

"This, this is not going to come true, is it?" Yuan Shang suddenly became nervous, and even his words were a little swirling, and he said incoherently.

"It's unlikely, it's just a hypothesis, Childe doesn't have to worry too much." Xun Chen shook his head, "But compared to this, what he is more worried about is actually the split between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, so instead of worrying about Cao Cao's counterattack, it is better to be prepared for what we should do if there is any disagreement between the two families and the alliance collapses." ”

It was just a few words, but Yuan Shang's original vague impression of the Battle of Xuzhou became clear in an instant, everything seemed to be straightened out, as if this battle was immediately understood, and a few hours ago, he was still worried about the Battle of Xuzhou, and he didn't know what the chances of winning this battle were.

Yuan Shang's brows finally stretched, but when he asked again, he became cautious, obviously just a short exchange, he had been completely convinced: "Then I don't know what Mr. Xun thinks, whether Liu Lan will fight to the death with us and break the net, or that my father will attack Xuzhou this time, does he really plan to fight Liu Lan endlessly for General Yan Liang?" ”

In fact, all this from the beginning of the plan to the implementation of the plan is highly confidential, and now Xun Chen can not know much truth, but Yuan Shang asked, he still thought about it carefully, talked about his own views with his own understanding, and said: "How Liu Lan thinks about it, I can't judge, but how the general thinks about it, I can speculate one or two, this time in fact, the lord's determination to attack Xuzhou is still the same as before, he just wants to wade into the troubled waters of Xuzhou, and even wants to fish in the troubled waters, but with the death of General Yan Liang." , everything has changed, it can be said that the general has a great degree of revenge for General Yan Liang, to an explanation to the outside world, but how strong the general's determination is, it is difficult to consider, in fact, what will be the final result of this battle, and the general's determination has a lot to do with it, if the general is unswerving, I am convinced that this battle will have a good result, but if because of some unexpected circumstances, the general's determination is shaken, then this battle is likely to be over. ”

"What Mr. Xun means is the Yuan Cao Alliance?"

Xun Chen smiled: "Childe is very right, but it may also be other accidents." ”

"Other accidents?" Yuan Shang raised his head and looked at him, but Xun Chen didn't speak anymore, a lot of troubles, not only what they see now, but also the potential dangers they haven't seen yet, it's just that such dangers haven't broken out yet, so they are all ignored by everyone, but once he breaks out, the results and variables are too big, although he believes that the lord has calculated everything possible before making up his mind, but a hundred secrets, no matter what, everything he can calculate before the battle, It is all the result of the existing intelligence, but there are some unexpected situations, but it is outside again, what will happen, the variables are too big, no one will guarantee in this matter, just like Tian Feng back then, full of confidence in the battle of Jizhou, but in the end, it was not a failure. ”

"Sir's right, this really needs to be guarded against. In fact, there is one thing you may not know, I received some official documents today, my father has seen it, it is about the bandits in Qingzhou, overnight there are bandits everywhere in Qingzhou to attack the county, killing the county magistrate, now the eldest brother is clearing up, but it is not smooth, for this reason, I also specially asked the Jizhou army of Gaolan to clean up, but even so, I don't know when these bandits can be pacified. ”

Xun Chen, who heard the news, didn't change much, after all, this is not what he just said was worried, he believed that this kind of unknown trouble and danger would only increase. Liu Lan has been operating in Qingzhou for so many years, and it is not easy to make such a big move in Qingzhou, so the variables of this battle are still big, especially why Wen Chou suddenly led the army south, there must be something greasy in this.

But no matter how much doubt Xun Chen had in his heart, he wouldn't ask, and even he suspected that even Yuan Shang didn't know about it now, and even if he did, it would be impossible to tell him, but it was very likely that he would find out that he knew everything about such a top-secret thing, which was not a good phenomenon.

"Thank you Mr. Xun for your advice today, the kid has benefited a lot, and I should come back to ask for advice another day." Yuan Shang, like his father, understands a truth, step by step, coming here today is just throwing stones to ask for directions, looking for some things that he cares about, things that everyone cares about to ask, long insight, open his eyes, but if he goes straight to the topic and says something about the world, then this time such a harmonious exchange may end up in a situation that he does not want to appear.

Since he knew that he would definitely be rejected by Xun Chen at that time, and even be expelled from the guest order, then he naturally had to become patient, and the good impression established by asking for directions this time would provide a good opportunity for in-depth exchanges between the two in the future.

"How Liu Lan thinks about it, it's hard for me to judge, but how the general thinks about it, I can speculate one or two, this time in fact, the lord's determination to attack Xuzhou is still the same as before, he just wants to wade into the troubled waters of Xuzhou, and even wants to fish in the troubled waters, but with the death of General Yan Liang, everything has changed, it can be said that the general has a great degree of revenge for General Yan Liang, and he wants to give an explanation to the outside world, but how strong the general's determination is, it is difficult to consider, In fact, what the final result of this battle will be, has a lot to do with the determination of the general, if the general is unswerving, I am convinced that this battle will have a good result, but if some unexpected circumstances appear, shake the general's determination, then this battle is likely to be over. ”
