C78 (1/2)
After a short while, two Young people s came out from the room. They looked to be around 20 years old and slightly younger than Yang Lin. He had a moderate build and a delicate face. A faint smile could be seen at the corner of his mouth. He was dressed in long clothes and had the appearance of a weak scholar.
”My name is Xun You. This is my uncle, Xun Yu. May I know what your esteemed names are, and what kind of advice do you have for me? ”
When Xun Yu and Xun You walked in, they were surprised to see a few tall and sturdy men. They were stunned for a moment but it quickly disappeared. What was interesting was that the Xun You who was speaking seemed to be older than Yang Lin by a few years, but the Xun Yu that was addressed as uncle was a lot younger, he was only around twenty years old.
Yang Lin and the rest of the brothers immediately stood up, cupped their fists, and respectfully bowed towards Xun Yu and Xun You.
”I am Yang Lin, the commander of the Youzhou Army, and these are my brothers Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Dian Wei, Pan Feng, Yu She, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Wen Chou, Wen Chou. However, I am a shallow scholar, and I often think of talented people to help me. I have long heard that Xun Yu, Mr. Xun You is a rare talent, with a wise mind that surpasses the masses, looking forward to it. I have brought my brothers here today, wanting to ask Mr. Xun You to advise us on military matters. I wonder what Mr. Xun Yu, Mr. Xun You thinks? ”
After considering for a long time, Yang Lin still felt that it was better to just directly say it. Hearing Yang Lin's words, Xun Yu revealed a faint smile, and did not rush to answer, but instead talked about other topics.
”I have also heard of the Lord Commander. Pingguang Yang, Dingdang, Save the Qingzhou, and Qu Yaoyang, four battles against four victories. It can be seen that the Lord Commander is not at a shallow level, but at an advanced level. Now that the yellow cloth has started the chaos and the entire world has been shaken, the imperial government has sent out their troops and closed in on the situation. I wonder what Lord Commander thinks about the overall situation in the world? ”
Hehe, after all this time, you still want to test me? No wonder, no one is willing to support a useless fool. However, we cannot speak nonsense against such outrageous words, as the imperial court is still very strong, and the strong man's foundation is still stable, so we cannot leave any evidence.
”Sir, you are testing me. Looking at the general situation of the world, the eunuchs are currently in power, the outsiders are usurping power, the eunuchs are fighting with the outsiders, their father, brothers, descendants, marriages, guests,, they are plundering the people, the citizens have been wronged and have nothing to tell them, thus they are plotting against them and gathering as thieves, the world is no longer peaceful. I thought it would be easy to destroy the Yellow Mask, but difficult to pacify the world. I do not know if Sir thinks so? ”
The living room was abnormally quiet, and only Yang Lin was speaking. Forget about Xun Yu, Xun You, even his brothers, wanted to know where the world's situation lay. Xun Yu looked at Yang Lin expressionlessly, and after pondering for a long time, he nodded his head.
”Just now, Lord Commander said that he wanted to eliminate Huang Ziyi. I wonder why Lord Commander is so sure?”
Regarding this question, Yang Lin remembered that his teacher had asked him before when he was studying history, but unfortunately, he had ran off with his teacher. However, there had been many peasant uprisings in history, and they all had something in common. He tried to recall some details, and after organizing his thoughts, he slowly explained.
”I will watch as the Yellow Mask starts an incident, then lose for sure at the end of the year. On one hand, the teacher is nameless, he is a professor of witchcraft, he uses the advantage of the common people and openly proposes to change dynasties, on the other hand, he is unpopular. On the other hand, he has no good generals, no good strategists, only hunters and fishermen, and other martial artists, and he only has bravery and no intellect to help him. On the other hand, the three are a motley crowd of people, and lack of training for the soldiers.
After hearing what Yang Lin had said, Xun Yu and Xun You revealed a hint of joy for the first time. Maybe Xun Yu and Xun You had not considered the shortcomings of the xanthopanax seriously, it was not his position, who would want to help the xanthopanax summarize his shortcomings? If he had that kind of intention, he might as well go and become Zhang Jiao's advisor.
”What are Lord Commander's plans after we exterminated yellow cloth?”
The reason why I have come to invite you all over is to listen to your ideas. How did you end up listening to my plans? If I had thought of everything, why would I ask for a strategist? This was probably a question of my ambition, but to get him to hand it over now, I should seriously think about it before answering.
”We brothers will raise the army to exterminate the yellow cloth for the imperial government, and we will live and work for the common people. As for us brothers, we made such a contribution for the imperial government, so the imperial government should reward us no matter what. If they were able to defend one side of the imperial government, there would be a place for them to stand. Then they would be able to encourage and govern, to the benefit of the common people, and to ensure the safety of the other side. At the same time, he would quietly observe the changes in the world before drawing another diagram. If we can get Mister's help, we will be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort. ”
It could be seen that Xun Yu and Xun You were quite satisfied with Yang Lin's reply, and both of their faces revealed pleased expressions. However, their Uncle and Nephew looked at each other and hesitated for a while, before Xun You shook his head regretfully.
”Lord Commander is very generous, we, Uncle and Nephew, also want to follow him and go to war, to help the nation. It's just that we have already accepted the imperial edict, and are only waiting for the waves to be extinguished, and the road is clear. We are going to the Luoyang, so we cannot offer any advice to the Lord Commander. ”
In the face of Xun Yu and Xun You's rejection, Yang Lin's heart was unusually uncomfortable. On one hand, it was to become a government official and advise the emperor. On the other hand, it was to become a soldier in a place and give advice to the local commanders. Anyone would choose the former. There was a saying, ”A good bird chooses a tree, and a good subject chooses his master!”
”Looks like we don't have the honor.”
