Chapter 43: Yanzhou is also poisonous [Chapter 1 and a half_[:3ゝ∠]_]
Su Yunqing beat Yuan Shao this time, and sure enough, he found that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were standing together, but because he had expected it, he was not very surprised.
It's just that after fighting Su Yunqing, Cao Cao cried.
Cao Cao angrily pointed at the merger: "How did Tai Shici run to merge the state!" Isn't he a military general in Yuzhou! ”
Before Yuan Shu sent troops to help Yuan Shao resist Su Yunqing, Cao Cao was very concerned about this war, so he naturally noticed the young general Tai Shici under Yuan Shu.
In Cao Cao's opinion, what is Yuan Shu's pit? Yuan Shu can force Sun Ce to go away and merge with the state, Tai Shici is also a good boy, no matter how you think about it, you can't get along with Yuan Shu.
Therefore, these two families will have to break up sooner or later.
Cao Cao has planned it, he will join forces with Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao to resist Su Yunqing this year, so much he will have contact with Tai Shi Ci, and it will be easy to do things if there is contact, he is confident that he has a way to pull Tai Shi Ci to himself.
And then the eggs.
Before Cao Cao pulled the people, he found that Tai Shi Ci ran away and went to _(:3ゝ∠)_
What a sad story.
But Cao Cao couldn't figure it out, how could Tai Shici run to merge the state?
Later, when I inquired, Cao Cao was really loveless.
Tai Shi Ci chased Sun Ce.
Hehe.
Why didn't he think of taking Sun Ce in the first place?
Su Yunqing took Sun Ce in, and immediately there were six more generals under him, and now he ran over to Tai Shici, who had to be at least a first-class military general...... Cao Cao felt like his heart was about to break.
Don't dare to be so pitted!
Su Yunqing nested in Bingzhou for a winter, and there was an extra Tai Shici under his hands, while Cao Cao nested in Yanzhou for a winter, and there were more Chen Deng and Mi Zhu under his hands.
In short, none of them can fight.
Cao Cao felt that Yanzhou was poisonous!
Otherwise, how could they be all civilian officials who can't fight? He wants a general!
In the past, when there was only one Yanzhou, Cao Cao had four generals composed of his own relatives under his hands, and it was enough to make do, but now Cao Cao's territory in two and a half states! Yanzhou Xuzhou plus half of Qingzhou! Qingzhou is still close to Su Yunqing!
For the sake of the generals, Cao Cao simply lost a lot of hair.
It's better to merge the state.
Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao and sighed: "Lord, forget it, our top priority now is to help Yuan Shao block Su Yunqing's offensive first, if we can't stop it, we will be the next to be stabbed." ”
"Zhongde, I understand everything you say," Cao Cao looked up at the sky forty-five degrees, with an inexplicable sentimentality: "I understand the truth, but I don't accept it!" ”
Why!
He also wants a general!
Cao Cao admitted that Sun Ce's matter was his mistake at the beginning, and when Sun Ce asked him for help, he rejected Sun Ce because he was worried about his relationship with Yuan Shu, but Tai Shi Ci ...... Cao Cao felt that his heart hurt so much!
The people under Yuan Shu's hands had better fool him, after all, Yuan Shu didn't cherish it, but he finally had a Tai Shi Ci, and in the end he missed it.
If you miss it, forget it, Tai Shici actually took the initiative to go to Bingzhou.
"What's so good about the state!"
Cao Cao thinks the treatment he gave is very good!
"What do you mean, my lord?" Although he felt that this matter was not the point, Cheng Yu did feel that there were too many strategists under Cao Cao and too few generals.
Guo Jiana, a guy with a problem with his life style, is out and can't go to work all day long, but everyone in the Assassin's Mansion is still very relaxed, and he doesn't feel the pressure of work because of the lack of one or two people.
Cao Cao thought for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion: "Since Tai Shici is destined to have no hope, what do you think of me digging Yuan Shao's corner?" ”
Yuan Shao's four first-class generals!
Cheng Yu: "......"
Yuan Shao is crying to show you!
No, first of all, it was Yuan Shao after the operation, in fact, the lord and the brother of the old Yuan family are on the same bar, right?
Although the corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched, Cheng Yu could still understand Cao Cao's resentment, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia were wandering outside, and Xun Yu was not suitable for doing this kind of shady thing, so ......
"Don't worry, my lord, I will pay more attention, if there is a chance to ......"
If you have the opportunity, dig Yuan Shao's corner_(:3ゝ∠)_
I hope Yuan Shao won't want to kill him reads;.
Of course, Yuan Shao would not have known that Cao Cao was fighting his generals, in fact, Yuan Shao had been guarding against Cao Cao's idea of attacking his territory_(:3ゝ∠)_
The three combined forces brought a lot of resistance to Su Yunqing, fortunately, Yuan Shao was not willing to use the troops of the two families because of the defense of Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, and he was even more unwilling to hand over the power of his hands in some places, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu's army was limited, and in many places there was actually only one garrison right, if it was a large army, Yuan Shao even arranged for the armies of the two families to be stationed outside the city, for fear that the army would seize the control of the city when it entered the city.
Because of this, although Su Yunqing felt a little troublesome, it was not a □□ annoyance.
Xun Chen knows the problem of the coalition army, but he can't help it, although Yuan Shao's defense seems a little unkind at this time, but it is also something that must be done, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao are both ambitious people, who knows if they will really grab Yuan Shao's territory?
If these two really robbed and didn't pay it back, then Yuan Shao couldn't help it.
At that time, Yuan Shao was not solved by Su Yunqing, but was solved by Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, wouldn't it be a joke.
Just when everyone on Yuan Shao's side was pitting each other, Jia Xu, who was nominally staying in Bingzhou, appeared in Su Yunqing's camp in Jizhou.
Jia Xu came secretly here, and on the surface, Su Yunqing still only brought one strategist, Xun You.
Su Yunqing was not surprised by Jia Xu's arrival, this was something that was planned from the beginning, Jia Xu came to the state and Mao Jue guarded it, Mao Jue as a high-end strategic talent has no vision and overall situation, so there is no need to worry about letting Mao Jue temporarily govern the state.
And the reason why Jia Xu came over was naturally because Su Yunqing didn't plan to spend it slowly with Yuan Shao.
Su Yunqing is not unable to spend time with Yuan Shao, in fact, even if there are three coalition troops now, Su Yunqing still has the advantage in terms of overall strength, after all, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao can't really help Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao can't suppress these two without suppression.
If the three really joined forces with all their might, then needless to say, Su Yunqing would not have to attack at all, and she might only be able to barely defend.
But a slight advantage does not mean that Su Yunqing is willing to spend it like this, if it really has to be consumed, Yuan Shao can drag this war for another year, and one year is enough time for too many variables, so Su Yunqing does not plan to wait that long, it is naturally best to be able to solve it quickly.
After Jia Xu came, Su Yunqing did not interfere much with Jia Xu's practices except for paying attention to confidentiality work, in fact, Su Yunqing also knew that Jia Xu was bound to do something not very honorable.
And these things are exactly what Su Yunqing shouldn't interfere too much, all she needs is a result.
Su Yunqing knew very well that if she had to find out all about these things, it would only destroy her current relationship with Jia Xu.
This is not to say that Jia Xu minds that Su Yunqing knows these things, in fact, Jia Xu doesn't mind at all, the real problem lies with Su Yunqing himself.
Su Yunqing knew that she couldn't accept certain means to achieve some goals, but many of these methods were actually regarded as ordinary things in this era.
Just like Su Yunqing feels that it is completely unacceptable to measure a person by money and sell children and the like, the money for a meal in her state pastoral mansion can sometimes buy one or even several healthy children.
But this kind of thing is normal in this era, and you can't even say that it's wrong, because this is the way of survival of the people at the bottom in this era.
And what Jia Xu wants to do may be a little more excessive, so Su Yunqing simply doesn't care too much.
She is not so hypocritical that she can't accept it, and she must ask others and even the world to conform to her three views that she has grown up in modern times, that is not kindness, that is called illness.
What Su Yunqing knew was that she wanted to end this war as much as possible, so that both the casualties of the army and the losses of the people would be much smaller.
Two months later, one of Yuan Shao's important advisers and Cao Cao's friend Xu You's family was arrested for committing a crime, and in less than five days, the matter was reported to Yuan Shao by Guo Tu, who had always been at odds with Xu You.
At this time, Yuan Shao's situation can be said to be extremely difficult, but it was found that Xu You embezzled military salaries and military rations, and when Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou in the past, Xu You also connived at his family to bully the township and seize people's property and land, so as to make a fortune, as for paying taxes? That's something that never happened.
Xu You has done a lot of things, but because he is a strategist valued by Yuan Shao, and he is also quite powerful in his hands, no one has dared to say anything, but this time he brought the matter to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao was immediately furious and wanted to arrest Xu You and put him in prison, but at the critical moment, Xu You seized Yuan Shao's character traits and first gave him a memory kill, recalling that he had followed Yuan Shao since Yuan Shao started his business, and accompanied Yuan Shao all the way to this day, and then he looked like he was crying and repenting, Yuan Shao really relented, and the decision to put Xu You to death in prison finally became to remove Xu You's position, let him go home and think about it behind closed doors, as for other punishments, I will talk about it later.
But how can Xu Yu be willing to go back? He knew that someone must have deliberately wanted to harm him, otherwise why did something that Yuan Shao had not known about all these years come out of nowhere? Even the timing of the appearance is so coincidental, and even all aspects are investigated in great detail, which is by no means something that can be done in a few days.
Xu You immediately thought of Guo Tu, it was Guo Tu who had been fanning the flames in Yuan Shao's ears and asked Yuan Shao to deal with him, if it weren't for Guo Tu's relationship, Xu You would have fooled Yuan Shao.
Of course, Xu You knows more clearly that although Guo Tu failed to kill him this time, he will never give up, and now that he is dismissed at home and Guo Tu is still by Yuan Shao's side, if Guo Tu wants to say anything bad about him, he doesn't even have a chance to defend himself.
It will definitely not work if it goes on like this, Xu You knows Yuan Shao's temper very well, if he is allowed to be instigated by Guo Tu, it is very likely that he will receive the news that Yuan Shao is going to kill him in a few days.
Xu You decided to deal with Guo Tu before he killed him.
Although Xu You is a greedy and selfish person, he is very talented, otherwise he would not have become the strategist that Yuan Shao relied on, and even faintly felt that he was overpowering others.
But no one knows how Xu You's plan leaked the news, and Guo Tu knew about it!
Guo Tuxin said that this is okay? It seems that if he doesn't die, Xu Yu will be killed by Xu You!
But Guo Tu also knew that it was useless for him to go to Yuan Shao again to say that Xu You was corrupt or something like that, since Yuan Shao had been moved by Xu You before, it would be difficult for him to change his decision, wouldn't it be a slap in the face.
So this kind of thing of slapping the face must not let Yuan Shao come by himself, but what if Xu You slapped Yuan Shao in the face again?
Guo Tu quickly went to find the judge, he has always had a good relationship with the judge, Xu You's move this time not only involved him but also involved the judge.
So it didn't take long for Yuan Shao to get a copy of the investigation again.
Xu You is not only corrupt, not only conniving at his family to break the law, he even secretly united with Cao Cao to seize Yuan Shao's territory.
It is said that because Yuan Shao was weak and Cao Cao was strong at this time, plus Xu You was Cao Cao's old friend, he went to Cao Cao several times, and Cao Cao treated him warmly, Xu You must have been dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's current status, so he thought about simply letting Cao Cao rob Yuan Shao's territory, and then he could ask Cao Cao for credit.
At that time, Cao Cao, who is sitting close to the land of three states, will be able to give Xu You more benefits compared to Yuan Shao, who now only has three counties, this is an obvious thing.
In addition, Xu You was dismissed by Yuan Shao for corruption this time, Xu You was even more dissatisfied in his heart, and it is said that after he went back, he secretly contacted Cao Cao to prepare to rebel against Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao couldn't bear it immediately when he heard this!
Xu You made mistakes before, he saw that Xu You had assisted him for so long after all, and there was no credit and hard work, and Yuan Shao was a person who was relatively easy to be swayed by feelings, so he also forgave Xu You and only punished him slightly, but he didn't expect that Xu You not only didn't know gratitude, but secretly conspired with Cao Cao to take away his inheritance.
Kill!
Yuan Shao only made this decision in the end.
But Xu You didn't give it in vain, he knew that he was in a catastrophe, so before he died, he pitted Guo Tu again.
Yuan Shao's strategists each have their own small groups, and it can be said that they don't like each other, and at this time, there are more people who watch a good show than want to persuade peace.
Xun Chen was even more speechless, he knew that there was a problem here, and he saw a lot of things, but he couldn't say it.
Xun Chen knew very well that he now had deep trust and respect for Yuan Shao, and his status was faintly above all other strategists, but no one troubled him because he was low-key enough and never got involved in things.
But as long as he gets involved in these things, then he is likely to be the next Xu You.
So Xun Chen could only choose to remain silent, he was not without the ambition to die generously, nor was he a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he was involved in infighting, he was framed and died.
Of course, Xun Chen also knew that because of this incident, the three alliances he had worked so hard to plan for Yuan Shao had completely collapsed.
And as long as this alliance collapses, Yuan Shao's demise is imminent.
Sure enough, after Xu Youtong Cao's rebellion against Yuan, Yuan Shao immediately took precautions against Cao Cao in every possible way, and even did not allow Cao Cao's soldiers to enter Jizhou, he only accepted Cao Cao's assistance in terms of grain, grass and baggage.
But Cao Cao is not stupid, he knows that Yuan Shao will definitely not be able to stop Su Yunqing, so will he send grain and grass to Yuan Shao in vain?
At this time, Cao Cao's advisers all knew that Yuan Shao would not be able to stumble for long, and they began to persuade Cao Cao to make plans as soon as possible.
Sure enough, in less than half a month, the alliance between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao completely collapsed.
Less than a month after the split between the two families, Su Yunqing personally led a large army to attack.
