Chapter 120

Besides, the lord is right. When he first started his career, he could despise hundreds of thousands of Xianbei troops with thousands of people, and despise the Xianbei who was still in its heyday. Not to mention that the lord has become the number one person in the world, and has the most and most elite troops in the world. The Xianbei is now in a period of fragmentation and its power has been greatly reduced! Not to mention! The Xianbei is not worth fearing at all!

Cai Yong laughed happily. After leaving worried, Cai Yong remembered that his old friend had been living here for many days. With his old friend's talent, assisting his lord was really icing on the cake. Cai Yong immediately spoke to Liu Bin: "My former close friend Kong Wenju has been here for many days. With his talent, he can cultivate the people of the country. The lord should not be missed." Liu Bin had known the news that Kong Rong came to Youzhou for a long time! However, after Kong Rong arrived, he did not visit him in the royal palace, nor did he go to the provincial governor's mansion to explain his purpose to the officials in Youzhou. He just found Cai Yong and others, and visited Youzhou as his old friend! Liu Bin guessed that he was still watching, so Liu Bin was so happy that he pretended not to know that he had arrived in Youzhou! He did not let the officials in Youzhou promote this matter!

Liu Bin was waiting for Kong Rong, so he took the initiative to surrender to him, or asked some of his old friends to recommend him to him! Now Cai Yong's words were just as good as Liu Bin's wishes, so Liu Bin smiled and said, "Haha! I am also well-known for Kong Wenju's name! Since he has arrived in our Youzhou and his father-in-law recommends him personally, it is definitely not wrong! Well! I will go to visit him with my father-in-law!" Seeing Liu Bin valued his words so much, Cai Yong took Liu Bin to visit Kong Rong with interest!

When Kong Rong arrived at Kong Rong, Kong Rong was very happy that Liu Bin could come and invite him out in person. This really looked down upon himself. Since Kong Rong came to Youzhou and saw the prosperity of Youzhou, he was also very interested in Liu Bin and intended to defect to Liu Bin! But he had not had time to take action. Since Liu Bin came to the door in person, that would be even better! In this kind of atmosphere of love and willingness, the two sides had a great conversation. During the conversation, Liu Bin asked Kong Rong about his political approach and tried Kong Rong's talent.

Kong Rong's answer was also very clever. Kong Rong said, "The Master said: "The way is to do politics, to align it with punishment, to avoid the people, to be shameless, to be virtuous, to align it with etiquette, to be shameful and polite. Now, His Highness, the King of Jin, strictly enforces laws and regulations so that the people know what they have done and what they don't do. He also runs newspapers to tell you good and evil, beauty and ugliness, right and wrong, to make them know what they do and what they don't do. This is the ultimate way of governing. It is far better than the state where the subordinates governed with virtue. Why should the lord ask me again?" Since Kong Rong has already planned to stay in Youzhou, he naturally wants to worship Liu Bin as his lord, and he must be polite to what he says!

Liu Bin was very happy when he heard it. He was also relieved of Kong Rong's future governance ability. At least Kong Rong was definitely not a constant fool. He understood his policies very well. He even understood more than himself. If Kong Rong had understood military better at the beginning, Beihai would not have been occupied by Guan Hai. But unexpectedly, when Liu Bin was thinking about Guan Hai, Kong Rong also mentioned Guan Hai.

Kong Rong told Liu Bin: "Lord. In the past, Rong lost the Beihai and was responsible for the ancestors' guarding the border. However, Rong Guan Hai was not a stubborn person. He still had great righteousness in his heart and had a bright idea of ​​right and wrong. He just had no place to live, so he gathered all living beings. After he broke the city, he kept his promises and did not hurt the people at all. He could still be educated. His subordinates were willing to rush to Beihai for his lord and persuade him to surrender. He hoped that the lord would be grateful."

Kong Rong's words really made Liu Bin stunned. Originally, Liu Bin planned to occupy Jizhou after destroying Yuan Shao, and then find another one to attack Qingzhou. At that time, he pretended to fight with Guan Hai's troops, and then incorporate Guan Hai's troops and return to Youzhou's rule. In this way, Youzhou could have a reason to get involved in Qingzhou! However, it was strange to say this from Kong Rong. Does Kong Rong hate Guan Hai for taking over his Beihai? Or is Kong Rong seeing something from it? He wants to test himself and find out the truth!

Thinking of this, Liu Bin asked tentatively: "Why did Mr. say this? Did he forget Guan Hai's wish to seize the city? And how did he determine Guan Hai's character?" Kong Rong smiled and said: "In this chaotic world, Rong did not know military affairs. Although the North Sea is rich, the people are simple. He is always the meat in the mouths of others. If sheep travels in wolves, she is always remembered by others. Rong is worried about this matter, and will never be a day. He is always afraid that the city will change its ownership and the people will be disturbed by the thieves. He dies in the war and cannot live and work in peace. Rong has no choice but to indulge in fine wine to escape.

This is worry. However, when the Beihai changed its lords, the people were safe and sound, and Rong was so happy that they were so happy. Why did they hate them? Moreover, Guan Hai was able to protect the people of the Beihai without causing trouble in the war. Rong not only did not hate him, but also thanked him. As for Guan Hai's name, Confucius said: Look at the reason, look at the reason, and observe the peace of the people, how can people be safe? After Rong changed his lords in Beihai, he was treated very well by Guan Hai, and lived with him for many days. Rong had no idea. Rong was guaranteed by his life. As long as the lord was willing to recruit Guan Hai, Guan Hai would definitely surrender happily. He was loyal to the lord."

When Liu Bin heard this, he couldn't help laughing! It seemed that Kong Rong did not see what Guan Hai had to do with Youzhou! He was indeed a gentleman! But you don't have to guarantee your life. As long as Youzhou is recruiting, Guan Hai will definitely surrender. Guan Hai has always been his own people. However, Kong Rong cannot know about this. Liu Bin could only hold back his smile and pretended to be moved, saying to Kong Rong: "Sir, be wholeheartedly for the people, serve the country, and ignore his own safety. I have been taught. I dare not refuse the gentleman's good intentions. I only ask Mr. to put state affairs first and cherish his noble body. After finishing this time, I will eradicate Yuan Shao, a traitor, and let me send someone to escort Mr. Yi Ce with him. Mr. Yi Ce is safe. I hope he will not refuse."

Liu Bin thought to himself: It would be nice to ask Kong Rong to recruit Guan Hai. At least no one could think of Guan Hai’s relationship with him from here. Last time when Gongsun Du attacked Youzhou, Youzhou was in danger, so he easily recruited Zhang Yan, who was born in the Yellow Turban Army! If he recruited Guan Hai now, then the princes in the world would be suspicious and suspected that he was related to these old golden subordinates! Now with Kong Rong's relationship, it can cover up people's eyes and make people less suspicious of himself! Although even if the princes in the world knew about their relationship with the Yellow Turban Army, they could not do anything to themselves, but they would have an impact on their reputation after all! However, when Kong Rong recruited Guan Hai, he needed to ask someone to follow Kong Rong, and then he would know Guan Hai and stop revealing it. And Kong Rong got Liu Bin's grace and trust. Then Kong Rong was even happier.

After Liu Bin and Kong Rong discussed this matter, Liu Bin started chatting with Kong Rong! But not long after, a guard came in to inform Liu Bin, saying that an emergency military situation occurred in Jizhou. Jia Xu and Guo Jia and others asked Liu Bin to go back to discuss military situation! After hearing this, Liu Bin did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly said goodbye to Kong Rong, and then rushed back to the royal palace with the guards! Liu Bin rushed back to the combat hall of the royal palace, and the senior military and political leaders in Youzhou arrived here!

After Liu Bin sat down, he signaled Guo Jia to start telling the military situation! Guo Jia smiled and said, "Lord! The latest information came from Jizhou! After our spies in Jizhou spread the rumors, Yuan Shao's senior officials discussed it. They thought we were a mystery, and they didn't know that the lord had returned yet! So they decided to attack us early! Originally, their army had not been trained yet, and the food, grass and weapons were not fully prepared. However, at the suggestion of Yuan Shao's adviser Xu You, they believed that now was the time for our weakest defense, so he was preparing to divide the troops of Jizhou into several groups and enter our Youzhou one after another! Now the first army has been assembled and ready to set off!" Then he smiled and explained in detail the process of Yuan Shao's high-level meeting and Xu You's high-profile discussion!

After hearing this, Liu Bin and others shook their heads and laughed! Xu You really didn't know what to say about him! Logically speaking, he was indeed talented and had a good tactical vision and was also a good strategist! However, as the head of the intelligence system, he was really incompetent! Even Liu Bin had already brought the army back to Youzhou with his army. He also came to a conclusion because of this, which was really a big disaster! It would be fine if this was not the case, after all, Youzhou's intelligence system is too powerful, and for love

The confidentiality of reporting work was done too well. The Jizhou intelligence system was established for too short and was not able to fight against Youzhou's intelligence system! But he didn't even understand some of his own internal affairs, which was too inappropriate! Now that the powerful families in Jizhou have defected to Youzhou, they didn't even find it at all. This is too stupid! Xu You, a good player in intrigue and fighting for power, is still far from dealing with intelligence work and assisting the lord in achieving hegemony! None of the people present could look at him!

Liu Bin even thought that this guy was greedy for money and profit for his own selfishness, and he did not estimate the overall situation at all. He got a little cheaper, so he was complacent. The most important thing was that this guy was rampant and arrogant and domineering because he had some old friendship with his lord. No wonder, after the Battle of Guandu, he was killed by someone not long after he surrendered to Cao Cao! Cao Cao basically ignored his death! Now it seems that he deserves his sins and has more to die! Even if he really surrenders to him, he will not accept him! It will be a disaster if he keeps him!
