C78

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."

"Lord Commander thinks highly of us, so we won't let you come here for nothing. I have a plan that can help Lord Commander find a future. "

Xun You could see through Yang Lin's disappointment and could also see that Yang Lin was not someone to be trifled with. Xun You also saw that such a brother of Yang Lin's would definitely do well in the future and wanted to be on good terms with him. He hesitated for a while, then nodded his head and began to scheme for Yang Lin.

"Lord Commander, if you say it out loud, you will not be afraid of being discouraged. Although you have already made four great contributions, the imperial government will not reward you. Because you have no one in the court, and no one will fight for you. If one wanted a position, not only would they have to contribute, but they would also have to receive help from the imperial government. The most effective way was to make friends with the eunuchs and spend some money to get a good place. Although Duan Ling Tian and Zhang Wen, who were both famous and one of the three Masters, had contributed a lot and gained a lot of prestige, they had to pay their bills before being able to ascend to the throne. In the current dynasty, even if you did not contribute, as long as you paid for it, you could still buy a bunch of official positions. Therefore, if you want to become an official, money is the priority, and merits are secondary. "

Of course, Yang Lin had already known that Hanling Emperor Liu Hong had set up this "Four Garden Seller's Office". Furthermore, he had already sent Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang out to Luoyang to do some activities, but he did not know how they were doing right now. Now that he had done such a great service for the imperial government, wouldn't it be a bit of a loss if he were to take the money to buy it? How could such a loss-making deal be acceptable to a businessman?

Thinking about the history of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, they had accomplished so much in the battle of xanthopanax, and it was even a stately Han Dynasty.

"Sir is right. To be honest, we also sent people to the Luoyang, but there is no news of us. There was no one to tie him down and he was not acquainted with the eunuch. He could not enter the house, so how could he form a relationship with him? It's not like they would rashly run over to pay, right? "

Using money to buy an official was something Yang Lin was more familiar with than Xun Yu and Xun You. However, for people like Liu Hong who wanted to publicly sell an official, it was still a scorpion that needed to poop alone. Xun You smiled mysteriously and gave Yang Lin an idea.

"Does Lord Commander know that the greatest eunuch of the dynasty, Chinese traditional medicine Zhang, lives in Ying Chuan! Even though Zhang Ren was already a eunuch, he valued kinship greatly. His father, brother and children were all officials, and were all from State County. The yellow scarf started to act up, the thieves started to act up, and their parents and children all returned to their places of origin. If the Lord Commander rashly went to his doorstep and asked for his help, he would definitely be shamed by Zhang Ergong. It would be wise for me to use a little trick to make Zhang Qian's entire family in my hands, and make Zhang Qian grateful to the Lord Commander.

"Good idea!"

Who would have thought that Zhang Jean's home would be in Ying Chuan? Who would be so bored as to remember the family background of a eunuch? However, this plan was a little tricky, could it be that Xun Yu and Xun You were the other 'Jia Du Shi'? But I like it, to friends as warm as spring, to enemies as merciless as autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

"Teacher's brilliant plan is not only to befriend Zhang Yong, but also to use him for a long period of time. In the future, we will have to deal with the imperial government, and with Zhang Liang helping out, everything will be convenient."

After Yang Lin finished speaking, he smiled and glanced at his brothers. Honestly speaking, he was not worried about his brothers, he was really worried that the righteous Guan Yu would not be able to accept the fact that they had become eunuchs. However, Guan Yu only listened seriously, he did not know whether he agreed or disagreed. At this time, Xun Yu slightly nodded his head, picked up the cup of water and drank a mouthful of water, after that he brought up another matter.

"Nowadays, the countryside gentry and Scholars s are all rumoured to have obstructed Huangfu Song from killing the captives, and for this reason, have angered Master Huangfu Song. Even though this action earned the Lord Commander a good reputation, it still made people criticize the Young Master for seeking fame. If someone with ulterior motives uses this opportunity to attack, the Emperor will blame the Lord Commander. "

Yang Lin had always been following Imperial army, but he did not hear anyone discuss this matter. However, he didn't pay much attention to it. He didn't have much of a reputation to begin with, so it was a good thing that people were discussing about him. He couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Very good, there were already some Squire and Scholars who were starting to pay attention to him.

"To tell you the truth, sir, it is my principle not to kill prisoners. The imperial government had also declared a general pardon, but Zhang Jiao was the only one who was not pardoned, how could he go back on his word? Of course, it could be because he was too anxious, his words were not right, and angered Lord Huangfu Song. Actually, I admire Lord Huangfu Song a lot, and had no intention to offend him. "

Xun Yu laughed with appreciation. He liked Yang Lin's honesty from the bottom of his heart, dealing with someone who had too much experience was also a very tiring thing. Actually, he was against the massacre of the prisoners as well, but he had no right to speak.

"This one is very pleased with Lord Commander's benevolence."

I'm not here to listen to your flattery. What I want is a genuine strategy and strategy, as well as the ability to solve practical problems. Yang Lin immediately thought of the difficult problem he was facing. This was a chance to test Xun Yu.

"Mr. Xun Yu, Mr. Xun You, the officers and soldiers have surrounded Bo Cai in Yang Di, but the Yang Di are sturdy, the strong attacks must have suffered heavy casualties. I wonder if mister has a plan to teach me? "

Unexpectedly, Xun Yu and Xun You both chuckled, as if that wasn't really a big deal. Xun You lifted his cup and drank a mouthful of water, slowly revealing his thoughts.

"Actually, there is no need to force an attack. Bo Cai had just lost, his food had been taken away by the allied army, and there were less than ten thousand people in Yang Di City, so he wouldn't be able to snatch much. With hundreds of thousands of men, how long could he last without food? At most ten days. When the time comes, it will be too late to catch up. "
