Chapter 836 – Legion Corps Full Scale

Within the guest hall of the Nanjiang Governor General Manor, a man wearing a red Long robe was seated. This fellow had a large and plump forehead; he was middle aged and had an exceptional aura.

He was the top advisor under Cao Cao’s camp – Xun Yu.

Along with the end of the Battle of Red Cliff, the generals and strategists during the Three Kingdoms all appeared in the wilderness. Xun Yu belonged to the Han Regime, so he wanted to obtain a position in the Luoyang Imperial Court.

After all, Hanwu Emperor represented the Han Regime. Helplessly, they already had a working system there and Xun Yu was not given much power.

When Shanhai City upgraded to Capital City, Xun Yu thought back to Shanhai City having Xu Chu, Jia Xu, Xiahou Yuan, and other generals and strategists from Cao Cao’s camp. He gritted his teeth and decided to leave Luoyang to Shanhai City.

Hence, this scene occurred.

When Ouyang Shuo met Xun Yu, the scene was like two people sounding each other out.

Ouyang Shuo was not unfamiliar with Xun Yu, this Three Kingdoms genius.

Xun Yu was someone who had the capabilities of being a prime minister. When the warlord Dong Zhuo seized control of the capital Luoyang, Xun Yu feared for his safety and resigned, returning to Ji Province.

In the subsequent years, warlords quickly rose in each region. Xun Yu first served Yuan Shao, whose power base was in Ji Province. However, Xun Yu later left him and went to serve Cao Cao in 191. At the later stages, he opposed Cao Cao from getting the title of Duke Wei, and he was removed from the core and fell sick. He was only 50 when he died.

In terms of strategy, Xun Yu had helped Cao Cao set the blueprints for unifying the north.

In terms of fighting, Xun Yu also did well. In 194, when Cao Cao led a campaign against Tao Qian in Xu Province, his home base at Yan Province was suddenly attacked by Lü Bu, and two of Cao’s officials, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao, chose to defect to Lü Bu. At that time, Xun Yu was in charge of the defenses of Juancheng, and his firm actions saved the city from capture, allowing Cao Cao’s armies to return and drive away Lü Bu.

In terms of administrative rule, Xun Yu recommended many talents to Cao Cao and formed his core talent pool, building up the economic and administrative system of the Cao Cao camp.

Xun Yu had made many contributions to Cao Cao and was said to be Cao Cao’s Zi Fang. Unfortunately, Xun Yu missed the Han Regime and had a fall out with the ambitious Cao Cao in the end.

Name: Xun Yu (God Rank) Dynasty: East Han Identity: Shanhai City Strategist Occupation: Special Strategist Loyalty:70 Command: 75 Force: 40 Intelligence: 97 Politics: 85 Specialty: Capable of being Prime Minister (raises success rate of strategies by 55%, raises attraction of talents by 20%, raises efficiency by 25%, raises territory governing standards by 20%.)

Although Xun Yu was a strategist, he was also a fairly capable civil servant. Ouyang Shuo already had Jia Xu and Chen Gong beside him, so it was best to use Xun Yu as a civil servant.
