Chapter 126 Lu Su's Advice on the Middle Routine

"Oh? I would like to hear your opinion."

Lu Su looked up at the starry sky and said eloquently: "Xuzhou has been massacred several times and the people's livelihood is in decline. If Liu Xuande wants to stabilize the state, it is not enough to rely on his own strength. Without external reinforcements, he will surely lose."

"Reinforcements? Zijing is talking about Yuan Shao?"

"Yuan Shao is the most important foreign aid. He defeated Gongsun Zan and occupied Youzhou. At this time, we should prepare for the big battle.

If I were Liu Xuande, I would send a discerning person to Hebei, and Yuan Shao could go south to King Xu Duqin, so that Cao Cao would be caught off guard and have no time to take care of Xuzhou.

Of course, this point is also the most difficult, Yuan Shao has many factors to consider, and may not be able to obey Liu Bei's words."

Long Xiang frowned when he heard this, and continued to guide: "As Zijing said, it is rumored that Yuan Shao is indecisive and may not send troops in time, then."

Lu Su must add: "It is precisely in consideration of this that Liu Bei needs to buy time for Yuan Shao. The best way is to show weakness to Cao Cao, send envoys to Xudu to plead guilty, and find other reasons for Che Zhou's death. He expressed that he would help the imperial court to take over Xuzhou temporarily, in short, he tried every means to delay it, and internally, he made preparations for defense."

"Hiss, that's a good idea"

Long Xiang nodded frequently, thinking that as long as the battle of Guandu was delayed, Liu Bei might be able to expand to Yuzhou.

Lu Su continued to analyze: "The Cao thief is extremely treacherous, and it is not enough to show weakness. I heard that Changba in Donghai County has also turned against him. Liu Xuande can use this as an opportunity to find a way to unite with the generals of Mount Tai to fight against Cao.

Of course, Zang Ba and others are all bandits, and they may not help each other without sufficient interests. Yuan Shaoxu needs to make great profits and promises. His eldest son, Yuan Tan, is in Qingzhou, so it is convenient to get in touch.

At that time, even if Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, the Taishan generals would be on the flanks to contain Cao Cao. Maybe Cao Cao would be trapped in Xuzhou.The siege of Xuzhou will be solved by itself."

"Wonderful." Long Xiang couldn't help applauding.

Seeing this, Lu Su shook his head slightly: "Yuan Shao is powerful. If he defeats Cao Cao in one fell swoop and takes control of the emperor, he may become the next Dong Zhuo, or he may swallow the world, and learn from his younger brother Yuan Shu to replace the Han Dynasty."

Long Xiang was taken aback when he heard that, he was shocked that Lu Su was indeed a master tactician, he was already deducing the future situation at this time, and thought that if he gave Liu Bei a strategy at this time, let him help Yuan Shao and destroy Cao Cao, how would he shake a bigger opponent in the future?Will Yuan Shao spread his message and decide the world?

Perhaps by letting Cao Cao and Yuan Shao continue to struggle, Liu Bei will have a chance to grow.

But without interfering with the historical process now, after Liu Bei's failure in Xuzhou, will he travel to Hebei, then go to vote for Liu Biao, and then ask Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain, and fight back in the Battle of Chibi?

The plot is too cruel, Long Xiang doesn't want to wait that long.

Long Xiang followed Lu Su's strategy and planned to send someone to Xuzhou tomorrow.

As long as Liu Bei can gain a firm foothold in Xuzhou, he can show his identity to Lu Su, and then assist the emperor's uncle together, first take Huainan, and then Tuyuan.

As for preventing Jiangdong's forces from going north, Long Xiang already has his own plan, and he doesn't mind doing Zhang Liao's favor and making Hefei a happy city for Sun Quan again.

Seeing that Long Xiang was silent, Lu Su thought he was drunk, so he tentatively asked: "Yun Qi, do you think my plan can solve the crisis in Xuzhou?"

"Oh? Zijing's ingenious plan is beyond words."

While complimenting, he suddenly heard heavy footsteps behind him.

Long Xiang quickly changed the subject: "The stars are so bright tonight."

"Yun Qi, I searched for a long time just now, so you hid outside, Mr. Zijing is also there?"

"Tang Dudu"

"Why did Uncle Xi come out? Zijing and I are watching the stars outside."

Tang Xie has been with Long Xiang for too long, and knows his details very well. He first sized it up, then grabbed Long Xiang's wrist, and muttered: "We finally had a drink, you, the head of the family, can't hide outside , the brothers didn’t have a good time.”

"Yun Qi is a little drunk." Lu Su stepped forward to explain.

Tang Xi raised his head and laughed loudly: "Haha, Mr. Zijing has also heard this rumor?"

"Uncle Xi, don't be rude."

Long Xiang's face collapsed when he heard this, and he reminded Tang Xi not to tear things apart.

Tang Xi understood, and then changed the subject and joked: "Hey, no matter whether you can drink or not, you must accompany us today. I fulfilled my promise and married a wife, and even made Cao Xing a family. Yun Qi can't just talk about it. "

"Okay, I'll drink, can't I drink it?"

Long Xiang smiled bitterly at Lu Su, he really couldn't refuse Tang Xi's enthusiasm.

Tang Ju sent another invitation to Lu Su: "Sir, too?"

"Let's have fun, my mother just arrived today, I have to go back early, let's say goodbye first"

Lu Su cupped his hands and bowed, then turned and walked towards the gate of the mansion.

Just after walking a few steps, the breeze in the courtyard swept the conversation between Tang Yu and Long Xiang, and the notes fell clearly in Lu Su's ears.

"Mister is not drunk at all. He went back to the mansion so early not to accompany his mother. How do you know the joy of boudoir if you are not married?"

"Uncle Xi, Zijing acts upright, don't talk nonsense"

"What's the relationship between human relations and openness? By the way, you have to find me a new house. That kid Cao Xing is young and noisy, and it's inconvenient for the two families to live together."

"Ahem. I'll figure out a way."

"Hurry up too, don't pick and choose, anyway, you can't see it when the lights are turned off at night, aren't they all the same?"

"Eh, it's different, my nephew will drink a few more bowls later."

"Why is it different? Don't they all have two eyes and one mouth?"

"Let's go quickly, I have already considered this matter"

"Don't just talk about it."

Lu Su shook his head when he heard it, and his steps became faster and faster. He lamented that Tang Ju's enthusiasm was too much.

Long Yunqi is a young hero, how could he find an ordinary woman as his wife?It's a pity that the Qiao family's daughter is still keeping her filial piety, otherwise he would be more anxious to get married than you.

Today, there are fine wines and delicacies in the front hall, so the back house is also indispensable for eating and drinking.

The four members of the Qiao family gathered together, and the meal that night was the most sumptuous meal since they were born in Shouchun.

Because there are no outsiders around, Qiao Wan and Qiao Ni don't care about their appearance, and they eat their mouths full of oil.

Chen couldn't help laughing, she frowned and reproached Qiao Wan: "How did I teach you before? My daughter eats food carefully at home, and learn more from your elder sister to stick to her manners. If outsiders see her ugly appearance now, who will dare to marry you in the future?" you?"

Qiao Wan didn't take it seriously, looked at Qiao Ni and said, "There are no outsiders in the back house, so we finally got to eat meat, so naturally we have to enjoy it to the fullest, right?"

"Well, Second Sister is right." Qiao Ni was too busy talking.

Qiao Wei reminded: "Third brother, slow down, and no one will grab it for you. Today, Long Yunqi has set up a celebration banquet. The kitchen has prepared enough food, which will make you enjoy it."

"Through Li Tun's betrayal, the boy has already figured it out, no matter how good-looking a woman is, how well-mannered she is, there are not many choices in this troubled world.

Since we came to Hefei City, what kind of rich and powerful family do we expect to marry?This place was originally formed by the gathering of refugees, and the Hefei Houfu where we live is the highest gate.

My eldest sister is one year older than me, so she will definitely marry me first. I don't know who will my mother marry my elder sister after the filial piety period expires? "

Qiao Wan's words were like spring thunder, and Qiao Wei's heart trembled unceasingly. She thought that the second sister had always been extremely intelligent, could she have seen something?At this time, he could only lower his head to hide his guilty conscience.
