Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Liu Yu’s meaning was very clear: if you want to save the world, you must first save people’s hearts.

Only by saving people's hearts can the noble families return to being virtuous, and only by returning to being virtuous can the local areas be stabilized, and only by stabilizing the local areas can the foundation for the rise of the Han Dynasty be supported.

But this cannot explain why Emperor Liu opened a school in Luoyang City, and what relationship it has with the aristocratic family.

After pondering for a moment, a gleam of light flashed in Guo Jia's eyes.

Since Luoyang, he had been aware of Liu Yu's intention to open a school. He wanted to spread the seeds of knowledge beyond the aristocratic families. He wanted some people to enter the court through studying and achieve a career. He wanted to build a pillar to support the Han Dynasty, which was about to collapse.

"I have understood the purpose of the emperor's uncle opening a school. With all due respect, the emperor's uncle's method has little effect. It will probably take many years to achieve the purpose that the emperor's uncle expects."

Liu Yu also understood the difficulty of this. The reason he did this was simply to plant a seed in the soil of the Han Dynasty, let them sprout quietly, grow slowly, until one day, they could bear fruit.

“The road may be near, but if you do not walk you will not reach it; the matter may be small, but if you do not try you will not accomplish it. Sometimes, I also use this sentence to silently encourage myself.”

"Uncle Emperor has devoted all his energy to the Han Dynasty and has made far-sighted plans. I admire him very much. Now that Uncle Emperor has occupied Luoyang and Chang'an, what are his plans for the future?"

"Although Chang'an and Luoyang are two great cities in name, they are already in ruins. I plan to restore the economy and gather refugees within three years, and then wait for an opportunity to move east."

"Three years later?" Guo Jia's eyes flashed with doubt. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Excuse me, this time point is too long. Even if the emperor's uncle can gather his troops within three years, it will be difficult for him to gain the upper hand when he goes east."

"Yuan Benchu ​​has already occupied Ji, Qing, and Bing. He is also fighting with Gongsun Bogui for Youzhou. Although he is temporarily on the defensive in the fight for Youzhou, I think Yuan Benchu ​​will definitely win in the end."

Liu Yu's eyes were shining. Guo Fengxiao was indeed known for his outstanding insight and could tell the success or failure of the two at a glance.

Man Chong then said, "Feng Xiao, as the saying goes, great minds think alike. When you were far away in Jizhou, the emperor's uncle had already foreseen Gongsun Bogui's defeat."

"Oh." Man Chong's words surprised Guo Jia. He didn't expect Liu Yu, who was so young, to be so perceptive about the war situation. "How did the emperor's uncle know that Gongsun Bogui would fail?"

"The reason is simple." Facing Guo Jia's question, Liu Yu smiled faintly, "Gongsun Bogui's White Horse Volunteers are invincible, but they have a fatal weakness. They are afraid of strong bows and crossbows. Once they are ambushed, they are likely to be wiped out."

"Also, I always believe that on the battlefield, we should keep a low profile and ensure victory, which is the most important thing. There is no need to make all the horses of the same color. It may look cool, but it will also make them the easiest targets to attack."

"As Fengxiao said just now, Yuan Benchu ​​occupies three states and has a deep foundation. War is ultimately a battle of comprehensive strength. The closer the war between the two of them gets to the end, the more obvious Yuan Benchu's advantage will be. Fengxiao, don't forget that there is also Liu Bo'an behind Gongsun Bogui. If the two of them fall out, this matter will be infinitely magnified by Yuan Benchu. With so many conditions, how can Gongsun Bogui not be defeated?"

Liu Yu's analysis was well-reasoned and made Guo Jia admire him very much. He thought that his vision of the general situation was already the best in this era, but he did not expect that Uncle Liu's insight was even better than his.

He was sure that Gongsun Zan would fail after his Baima Yi was annihilated. The two men's attacks became evenly matched.

It was obvious that Liu Yu had made his prediction when the White Horse Volunteers were invincible, and the actual result was just as Liu Yu predicted. The White Horse Volunteers were ambushed by Yuan Shao and almost wiped out in the Battle of Jie Bridge.

"I admire the emperor's insight, but I don't know how to explain the word 'cool'?"

Liu Yu laughed.

"This is a word from my hometown. It roughly means to attract attention or to act in a way that draws people's attention."

Liu Yu didn't know whether his explanation was correct or not. Seeing that Guo Jia didn't ask any more questions, he obviously accepted his opinion.

Guo Jia pondered for a moment and continued, "This is exactly what I am worried about. After Yuan Benchu ​​conquered Youzhou, he occupied four of the thirteen states in the world. The key is that these four states are also the four most powerful states in the Han Dynasty. Do you think that you can defeat Yuan Benchu ​​with the geographical location of Luoyang and Chang'an?"

"Yuan Benchu, who occupies four states, is indeed a trouble. It will probably be difficult to defeat him."

"Since the Emperor's uncle was determined to support the Han Dynasty, the war between him and Yuan Benchu ​​has begun. We must not wait for another three years. During these three years, although the Emperor's uncle has been developing, Yuan Benchu ​​has also been developing. With his geographical advantage, he can still crush the Emperor's uncle."

Every word Guo Jia said hit the nail on the head for Liu Yu. This was also the question he had thought about the most during this period of time. If he could not crush Yuan Shao in terms of strength, in the end, the only way to win the war with Yuan Shao was to defeat the enemy with a smaller force and a surprise victory.

This was the situation Liu Yu least wanted to see, because he was unwilling to take risks and did not have the courage to burn his boats.

He couldn't lead his troops to attack Yuan Shao's food supplies at all costs like Cao Mengde did.

"Fengxiao, what you said makes sense. What should we do most urgently? Please teach me, Fengxiao." After saying that, he saluted to Guo Jia.

Seeing this, Guo Jia hurriedly stood up and returned the greeting.

"The most important thing now is to let Gongsun Bogui hold Yuan Benchu ​​back. Only in this way can I have room to carry out my plan."

Liu Yu smiled faintly.

"Fengxiao, don't worry about this. I have asked Wenhe to help Gongsun Bogui. As long as Gongsun Bogui is willing to listen to his advice, I am sure that within three years, Gongsun Bogui will be a nail that threatens Yuan Benchu."

Guo Jia looked at the young man in front of him who was less than 10 years old in some disbelief, and a look of shock appeared on his face again.

It was obvious that he had been shocked by Liu Yu's foresight. If a genius like Liu Huangshu was allowed to continue growing, God knew what kind of monster he would become.

"The emperor's uncle is prepared for the rainy day and has excellent foresight. He is truly a hero of the time."

"Fengxiao, there is no need for us to use these empty formalities. I know my strengths very well. When it comes to the general trend of the world, I still have some advantages. But when it comes to planning the details, it is obvious that in this era, there are many people who are much better than me."

"Fengxiao's talent in this area is many times better than mine. You don't have to be modest. Just speak freely. I'm all ears."
