Chapter 464

"Hmm? Why?"

Yuan Shao had already been moved by Guo Tu, but now hearing Xu You's words, he was stunned again and asked in confusion.

Guo Tu's expression also stagnated, looking at Xu You with cold eyes.

He wanted to hear how Xu You could make things sound like flowers.

He knew very well that Xu You actually wanted to continue saying that Su Xuan was a great threat, but was snatched by him.

Not wanting to fall behind, he chose to refute his point of view.

Xu You analyzed for Yuan Shao: "The world is ultimately the world of scholars, and new policies are not so easy to succeed!"

"Think back to when Wang Mang usurped the throne, didn't he also try to engage in new policies?"

"It was precisely because of this that his power collapsed in the end, and he was finally overthrown by Emperor Guangwu uniting the vast number of scholars!"

"It can be seen that this world is still the world of scholars;"

"So what if Su Xuan wants to cultivate talents himself to help him complete the new policies?"

"How much time does this take?"

"And how many counterattacks from gentry and powerful clans does he need to face?"

"He is already standing on the opposite side of the vast number of scholars, and his self-destruction in the future is inevitable!"

"Even if he can be strong for a while, the final result will not change!"

"Do you agree, Lord?"

Although this was a point of view Xu You came up with to refute Guo Tu.

But after analyzing it, Xu You had already convinced himself, and the more he said, the more he felt that what he said made sense.

Even if Su Xuan could be strong for a while by relying on new policies and his own ability, once the scholars and warlords of the world realized the threat of his new policies, he would inevitably invite the common hatred of all the scholars in the world;

By then, Su Xuan would be fighting against the whole world with his own strength, how could he win?

"That's true!"

Yuan Shao nodded affirmatively.

Xu You gave Guo Tu a provocative look, which made Guo Tu want to hit someone.

But he had no good counter-argument for a while, so he could only sulk and not speak.

Yuan Shao saw this and decided: "Since that's the case, let's ignore Su Xuan for now!"

"Originally, we don't have the energy to manage his side for the time being!"

"Currently, our top priority is to deal with Han Fu, take Jizhou, and then move north to Youzhou to solve Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan, which is the most critical!"

"Otherwise, if we cannot expand our strength in time, it will be difficult to deal with Su Xuan in the future!"

He could still distinguish between primary and secondary.

His future would definitely be more powerful than Su Xuan's.

But for now, both his troops and territory were far inferior to Su Xuan's.

Fortunately, relying on the Yuan family and having many talents under his command, he didn't have to worry about not being able to catch up.

"Lord is wise!"

Xu You flattered him and added: "However, I think that even if Su Xuan will destroy himself in the future and can only be strong for a while, it doesn't prevent us from finding trouble for him now and weakening him!"

"Hmm?"

Yuan Shao raised an eyebrow: "What do you plan to do?"

Xu You replied: "We can secretly send people to widely publicize the harm of the new policies Su Xuan implemented in Jingzhou to the gentry, so that he will be rejected by the scholars of the world early;"

"In addition, we can send envoys to Yangzhou and Yizhou to state the dangers of Su Xuan to Liu Zhang and Liu Biao, and persuade them to send troops to deal with Su Xuan. Not to mention defeating Su Xuan! At least limit Su Xuan's footsteps in developing toward Yangzhou and Yizhou;"

"Only in this way can we leave more time for ourselves. What do you think, Lord?"

No matter what, it is necessary to unite and deal with Su Xuan.

In any case, it is a simple matter for Yuan Shao to send a few envoys and spread some news in the dark.

But Su Xuan will have a headache dealing with the consequences of these moves!

Hehe!

"Good!"

Yuan Shao's eyes flashed: "Then let's do as you say, Xu You! You are mainly responsible for this, how about it?"

"I dare not disobey!"

Xu You took the order happily, and then looked at Guo Tu triumphantly. That look seemed to say: So what if you wanted to intercept my strategy before? Isn't it still bypassed by me in the end? You, Guo Tu, are still far worse than me! Hehe! Fight with me.

Guo Tu and Xu You were old rivals, and he understood the meaning in Xu You's eyes in an instant. He pulled a long face, clenched his fists tightly, and his fingers turned white, hating Xu You extremely in his heart.

He secretly swore: "Xu Ziyuan, just you wait, don't let me find an opportunity, otherwise, I must make you die without a burial place and never be able to turn over! Hmph!"

Now, the conflict between them was no longer just a dispute over interests, but also a dispute over spirit.

Buddha fights for a stick of incense, people fight for a breath.

He remembered this grudge.
