"Okay, it's worthy of Su Qin, Cao Thief has withdrawn from the camp and retreated south, it must be Su Qin who has said that Liu Zhang will send troops."

In the king's tent, after the pottery merchant received the news that the scout reported that Cao Ying had gone to the empty building, he was so excited that he was stunned, and the fierce battle spirit on the heroic face had begun to burn.

"The king knows the ability of people, and he is convinced." Zhang Liang also smiled and sighed.

The potter laughed, and said with a handful of orders: "Since Su Qin has succeeded, it should be no problem to come to Zhang Yi, this king expects that the big-eared thief will withdraw his troops within a few days, and I will closely monitor the situation in the Yan camp."

After the edict was transmitted, the generals of the Wei army immediately sent scouts to strengthen the monitoring of the Yan camp.

Soon, the latest movements of Yan Jun were sent to the potter's case.

However, Liu Bei's latest move is a little strange for the potter.

The scout clearly reported that on the road north of Jinyang, a large number of Yan troops appeared, and they were heading north, which was clearly a large-scale retreat.

But the scouts near the enemy camp reported back, claiming that the Yan camp had not been demolished, but that the camp had doubled the flags, and the camp wall could be vaguely seen.

"This is strange, Liu Bei, the big-eared thief, did he withdraw, or didn't he withdraw?" The potter looked at the diametrically opposed information in his hand and frowned.

At this moment, Zhang Liang walked into the tent with a strange smile on his face, and arched his hand: "King, Yuan Shang has sent a messenger here." ”

Yuan Shang's messenger?

At this juncture when Cao Cao had retreated and Liu Bei seemed to be retreating, Yuan Shang suddenly sent a messenger, how could he not make life strange.

"Why, Yuan Shang's miscellaneous, won't it be because the reinforcements ran away, desperate and helpless, and want to surrender to this king." The potter half-jokingly.

"The king is really right, Yuan Shang did send someone to ask for surrender." Zhang Liang said with a smile.

The potter's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became excited, and hurriedly asked Zhang Liang to explain in detail.

It turned out that Yuan Shang really sent people to ask for surrender, but instead of surrendering unconditionally, he made several conditions.

Yuan Shang said that he was willing to take the initiative to give up Jinyang City, and even the entire Taiyuan County, as well as the counties of Jinnan, and most of the essence of the annexed prefectures, all of which were dedicated to the pottery merchants, and called the pottery merchants a tribute, and surrendered themselves to the Fan State.

Yuan Shang's condition was that he hoped that the pottery merchant would retain his title of Duke of Jin and let him continue to keep the four counties of Yanmen, Dingxiang, Yunzhong and Wuyuan in the northern part of the state as his fiefdoms.

Yuan Shang said that as long as the potters agreed to his request, he would submit to the potters from now on and guard the north for the potters.

The potter smiled.

What is subordinate to the Great Wei and what is called a minister and a tribute is just a false surrender that Yuan Shang was forced to do.

Yuan Shang knew that Jinyang would not be able to defend it, so he wanted the potters to let him go, and cut off several counties in the north of Jin Province with dangerous terrain, nominally as a minister, but in fact he continued to divide one side and took advantage of the opportunity.

However, if the potter agreed to his terms, he could end the war of the Jin Dynasty in the shortest possible time and take time to deal with the enemies of the remaining countries.

As for Yuan Shang, although the counties in the northern Jin Dynasty are dangerous, they are poor mountains and bad waters, and the population is scarce, even if Yuan Shang is allowed to keep it, with those counties and Yuan Shang's ability, don't think about causing him any more threats.

It is not impossible to wait until the other princes are cleaned up in the future, and then free up their hands to destroy Yuan Shang.

The potter was silent, but there was some kind of suspicion in his eyebrows.

"Is the king worried that Yuan Shang is surrendering?" Zhang Liang saw the potter's speculation.

The potter nodded, "Jinyang City has not been besieged yet, and Yuan Shang has not yet reached the last step, so this king is indeed a little suspicious." ”

"The king's suspicions are also justified." Zhang Liang smiled, "However, if Yuan Shang really wants to surrender by fraud, he will surrender directly and unconditionally, why bother to put forward so many conditions, he should know that with his current strength, he has no capital to make conditions with the king, and only by surrendering in Kaecheng can there be a way out." ”

"This king originally thought the same way, but it was only in combination with the information he had just received about the Yan army that this king had to be suspicious." As he spoke, the potter showed the two pieces of information to Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang only glanced at it a few times, and there was a suspicious look in his eyes.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Liang threw the information on the case and sneered: "The king is right to suspect that Yuan Shang is indeed defrauding the surrender, and he wants to take the opportunity to abandon the city and flee in the name of deception." ”

Yuan Shang wants to escape?

The potter's eyes moved, and he motioned for Zhang Liang to continue.

Zhang Liang said: "If Liu Bei's army is still there, Yuan Shang's hope is not extinguished, he will definitely not choose to surrender, let alone give up Jinyang City, Yuan Shang's surrender proves that Liu Bei's army has withdrawn, and the banner soldiers in the Yan army must be just a bluff, I expect that the soldiers and horses will not be more than 5,000 at most." ”

"It makes sense, keep talking." The potter nodded.

Zhang Liang continued: "Besides, this Yan army camp, if Liu Bei has withdrawn, he should know that we will be aware sooner or later, and it is useless to bluff, so Liang speculates that the one who stays in the Yan camp must be Sima Yi." ”

"This king understands." The pottery merchant was already enlightened, and sneered: "Sima Yi is afraid that we know that Liu Bei's army has left, and immediately implement a siege of Jinyang, so he wants to bluff, and at the same time offer a plan to Yuan Shang in the city, let him deceive the king, so that the king can relax his vigilance, and then he can join forces with the outside, and answer Yuan Shang to break through and let the city not leave." ”

Zhang Liang smiled and said nothing, obviously what the potter said was exactly what he thought in his heart.

"Yuan Shang, Sima Yi, at this point, you still want to play yin with this king, it's good, then this king will accompany you to have enough."

In the big tent, the potter's fierce and disdainful laughter sounded.

……

Jinyang, Guogong Mansion.

The candle flame was dim, and the entire hall exuded a gloomy mood.

Yuan Shang held his forehead with his hand, sat on the top with his eyes closed, and he was motionless, like a lifeless statue.

The footsteps sounded, and the two of them, one article and one martial artist, hurriedly walked into the hall.

"Meet Jin Gong." The two of them looked solemn and bowed down in unison.

"Get up." Yuan Shang raised his hand weakly.

The two straightened up and looked up at Yuan Shang, looking at Yuan Shang's expression, it seemed that they had made some kind of decision.

"Duke Jin, Cao Cao has withdrawn his troops, there is news and rumors that Liu Bei has also withdrawn, Duke Jin urgently summoned us late at night, is it to discuss the countermeasures" The judge asked with a frown.

Yuan Shang opened his eyes, sighed lightly, and said helplessly: "This duke summoned you here to tell you that this duke has sent an envoy to Wei Ying to ask the potters to surrender. ”

As soon as these words came out, the two of them immediately changed color in shock.

"Duke Jin, that pottery thief killed his father-in-law, but you and I killed my father's enemy, how can you surrender to him!" Lu Bu was the first to roar.

The judge also panicked: "Duke Jin, the pottery thief is brutal, if the Duke of Jin surrenders to him, he will be harmed, not to mention that it is not yet the time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, why should he easily surrender to the pottery thief?" ”

The attitude of the two of them could not be more obvious, and they were both opposed to asking the potter to surrender.

"Haha-" Suddenly, Yuan Shang burst out laughing.

Judging and Lu Bu suddenly looked dazed, glanced at each other, and looked at Yuan Shang who suddenly laughed in confusion, not knowing what he meant.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and Yuan Shang's face was already cold, "What is the identity of this father, how can you really surrender to the humble thief of the pottery thief, you also underestimate this father." ”

The two were stunned again.

The judge suddenly guessed something, and immediately said happily: "In this way, the Duke of Jin should have played a trick on the pottery thief?" ”

Yuan Shang nodded slightly, smiling without saying a word.

Only then did the judge take a long breath, his face palpitated, and suddenly he thought of something, so he said: "Even if the pottery thief falls for our trick of surrendering, but our army is less than 7,000, and the pottery thief has ten times the number of soldiers. ”

The trial thought that Yuan Shang had used a fraudulent plan just to make the potters relax their vigilance so that they could take the opportunity to rob the camp.

"When did my father say that he was going to attack Wei Ying at night?" A hint of mystery appeared on Yuan Shang's face.

"What does Jin Gong mean......" The trial was at a loss again.

Yuan Shang stood up and opened his mouth to say seven words: "This prince wants to let the city not leave." ”

The judge's expression moved, his thoughts flew around, and he immediately understood Yuan Shang's intentions.

He lost foreign aid, and he was afraid of repeating the mistakes of Liyang and Yecheng, so he didn't dare to stick to Jinyang and wanted to abandon the city and flee.

"Duke of Jin, Taiyuan County is the richest county in my Great Jin, Jinyang is not only the national capital, but also the core of the Great Jin, and it must not be easily given up." The trial is urgent, and it is persuaded.

Yuan Shang's face sank, and he glared at him and said, "What you said is light, that Bengong asked you, don't let the city go, what can you do to defend Jinyang City?" ”

In a word, the interrogator was shocked and speechless.

Whether Jinyang can hold it or not, judging from the judgment, is naturally very clear.

With the strength of the Wei State, even if it is like Liyang and Yecheng back then, it will be no problem to surround Jinyang for a year and a half.

And the reinforcements of Cao and Liu have been withdrawn, Jinyang has become a lonely city again, and the Wei army can besiege the city unscrupulously.

The fall of Jinyang is a matter of time.

"Duke Jin, if we abandon Jinyang, what will we do to compete with the pottery thief." Lu Bu couldn't help but ask.

Yuan Shang raised his hand and pointed to the north: "Yanmen, Yunzhong Prefectures, the mountains are dangerous, enough to be defended, this prince intends to retreat to the north of Jin, the north is Xianbei, the west is connected with the Xiongnu, and the east is Liu Bei, even if the pottery thief comes, what is there to fear." ”

Yuan Shang's tone is full of confidence, but anyone with a discerning eye can hear that Yuan Shang is not confident enough.

Lu Bu is a native of Wuyuan County in northern Jin Province, and he knows best that although Yanmen and other northern counties are dangerous, they are all poor and remote areas, although there is land danger, there is no army to recruit and no grain to collect.

As for Xianbei and the Xiongnu, they are also ambitious, if they can't get benefits from Yuan Shang, how can they easily help each other.

Retreating to the north of Jin, for Yuan Shang, it is only a corner of the sky, and if he wants to confront the potters and compete for the world, there is no chance at all, let alone revenge for his father.

And for the amnesiac Lu Bu, it doesn't matter what he wants to do to fight for the world, the only purpose of his existence is to kill the potter.

Retreating to northern Jin was tantamount to making him give up hope of killing the potter.

Lu Bu was silent.

There was nothing to say about the trial, because he didn't have the grasp of Jinyang, so he could only let Yuan Shang make a decision.

"Since you all have no objections, then the matter is settled." Yuan Shangjian persuaded the two of them, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly gave the order to go down, pack up, and prepare to escape.

Judging and Lu Bu had a single article and a martial art, and they had to silently surrender and retreat.

As soon as the two of them left, Yuan Shang sat down, looking weak, let out a long breath, and muttered: "Sima Zhongda, I hope that your strategy can hide from the sky and help this prince to trap the dragon out of the abyss......"
