Chương 144: Chapter 144 It's only a matter of a few words

"Xuzhou's Tao Gongzu would be the best choice, but since Liu Xuande holds Mount Tai Commandery in Xuzhou, it means we don't even share a border, turning the idea of borrowing grain into an empty talk," Xun Yu calmly stated. "Therefore, we can only do as Liu Xuande did, use the weak to pressure the strong. We strike here!"

Cao Cao focused on the location pointed out by Xun Yu on the map, "Yuan Gonglu is indeed a good choice, but relying on my own strength alone, I'm afraid it might not suffice!"

"If Liu Xuande could borrow the strength of Gongsun Bogui, why can't we use the hand of Liu Jingsheng to accomplish this? You must know that Nanyang County, a place of wealth, is a part of Jingzhou, and now Liu Jingsheng has already completed his control over the internal governance of Jingzhou," Xun Yu said with a smile.

"Is that so?" Cao Cao asked in surprise and delight.
