To be honest, Yuan Tan didn't want Cai Ji to share the credit, and Cai Ji himself didn't want to accompany Yuan Tan to fight Tian Kai. In fact, she had a different plan for this expedition with 17,000 soldiers and horses. It's just that Cai Ji originally expected that Yuan Tan would call on part of Donglai's troops, so she would subconsciously recruit an additional 2,000 soldiers and horses for backup this time. Since Yuan Tan only asked Donglai to be responsible for the supply of military rations at the moment, Cai Ji was happy to stay out of the matter and let go of the implementation of the battle plan. No, as soon as he returned to the Donglai camp, Cai Ji immediately summoned Guo Jia and Liu Yixun, and told the two of them what had happened in Licheng's tent before.

"From this point of view, Yuan Shao's intention this time is to make an example of chickens and monkeys." Guo Jia nodded and concluded after listening to Cai Ji's narration.

Seeing that Guo Jia had made the same judgment, Cai Ji couldn't help but echo and said, "This government thinks so too." But according to Yuan Tan's arrangement today, Donglai is afraid that he will not be able to make any military achievements this time. On the contrary, it is necessary to pour grain and grass. ”

"Oh? Will the prince be willing to be Yuan Tan's granary? Guo Jia raised his head and looked at Cai Ji with interest and asked rhetorically.

"Ah, I really can't hide my filial piety." Seeing that Guo Jia's words hit the point, Cai Ji couldn't help but smile, turned around and asked Liu Yixun again, "Is there any news from Yixun Donglai?" ”

"My lord, there is no movement on the borders of Donglai." Liu Yixun replied respectfully. Like Cai Ji, this was Liu Yixun's first time as a staff member with the army. In order to leave a good image for the young new lord, Liu Yixun naturally did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Let the spies continue to probe again. As soon as there is a disturbance, come to report immediately" Although Cai Ji said that it was okay in his mouth, it was difficult to hide the disappointment on his face. It turned out that Cai Ji took 17,000 men and horses from Donglai to Licheng this time, although he had the intention of sending troops according to the order. However, its real intention is to show the forces around Donglai that Donglai is currently in internal defense, in order to induce greedy people to attack Donglai. In this way, Cai Ji became famous, and he could generously open up another battlefield to attack the city and plunder the land.

No, what Cai Ji lacks most at the moment is the four words "the teacher is famous". Speaking of which, although the wars in the late Han Dynasty were frequent, they had not degenerated to the point of five chaotic China, five dynasties and ten kingdoms, which were completely knife-based. In a sense, the Three Kingdoms of the late Han Dynasty can be seen as another Eastern Zhou nation. Song Xianggong's "no drums and no columns" is certainly unacceptable, but the battle between the princes still has to pay attention to "the division is famous". Especially a force like Cai Ji, who has a shallow foundation and is located in the Central Plains, pays more attention to these ways. Sometimes, even if you have enough reasons to send troops, if you go too far, you will also be collectively resisted by the Central Plains family Rulin. After all, for Cai Ji, Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou and the loss of Yanzhou were a lesson for her.

However, at this moment, the forces around Donglai are all ignoring the incense bait put out by Cai Ji. Needless to say, Kong Rongzi, who has always paid attention to benevolence and righteousness. But if Zang Ba in Xuzhou in the south didn't react, this would be too weird. Could it be that it was done too obviously and no one took the bait?

And just when Cai Ji was secretly depressed, Guo Jia, who was listening to the side, said disapprerovingly, "If the prince is waiting for the news of Donglai's attack." Then Feng Xiao advised the prince not to wait any longer. Donglai will be fine at the moment. ”

"What do you mean by Feng Xiao?" Cai Ji hurriedly asked.

Seeing that Cai Ji was asking so urgently, Guo Jia couldn't help but glance at Liu Yixun beside him, and explained with a smile, "The prince of the palace brought 20,000 soldiers and horses to the expedition this time, which is nothing more than to make people think that Donglai's current troops are empty, and he wants to lead people to attack Donglai. Then the prince of the palace justifiably withdrew his troops from Licheng and counterattacked the attackers. It's just that the prince has ever thought about it? The prince of the house took 20,000 soldiers and horses to the battle, not only in addition to making people think that Donglai was pouring out of the nest, but also might be thought of as the king of the palace with strong soldiers and horses, even if 20,000 soldiers and horses were dispatched, they could still defend Donglai. ”

"Feng Xiao means that this mansion has brought too many people this time?" Cai Ji asked in surprise. In other words, Cai Ji only thinks that the more people he brings, the more he can show weakness to his surroundings, and his unconscious actions have become "singing empty city plans" in disguise. ”

"It's a lot." Liu Yixun on the side took the opportunity to say, "Don't hide it from the prince, the counties of Qingzhou are not good at military affairs. The prince of the palace crossed Qingzhou with 20,000 soldiers and horses this time, I am afraid that the surrounding counties and counties would have been scared to the city gate closed, and who would dare to invade Donglai? ”

"Even if there are bold people who covet the wealth of Donglai, at least before the war between the prince and Tian Kai, such a young person will not dare to act rashly. After all, it is only less than ten days from Licheng to Huangxian. Once Donglai is attacked, our army will be able to return to help within 10 days. Tai Shici, who had not spoken before, also explained to Cai Ji.

At this moment, after listening to the analysis and explanation of the three people present, Cai Ji finally realized that this time he underestimated the caution of the surrounding forces and overestimated their ambitions. In fact, if you think about it, this is indeed the case. Yes, Liu Bei of Xuzhou has been at war with Yuan Shu for several months since the end of last year. But I still didn't see Xiao Pei's Lu Bu move. It seems that even Lu Bu, who is known for his repeated appearance, is the master who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles. What's more, it's the little-known county governments of Qingzhou. Thinking of this, Cai Ji suddenly drooped his head like a student who did not score well in the first test, and said weakly, "It seems that this mansion has added to the snake this time." ”

Although Cai Ji thinks that he is ugly this time. But Guo Jia, Tai Shici, and Liu Yixun didn't think so. In their opinion, Cai Ji is still young and a woman, and it is already commendable to be able to do this step today. After all, Jingluo Qingzhou is different from the previous bandits, and there are many things to consider in all aspects. How to assist the Maiden Mansion in front of him to fight this battle well is the responsibility of the three people in front of him as subordinates.

Thinking of this, Tai Shi Ci took the lead in cheering Cai Ji and said, "There is a difference between what Fu Jun said. It is precisely because the prince of the government ordered 20,000 soldiers and horses to go out on the expedition this time, that we can take the lead and suppress the counties and counties of Qingzhou with momentum. ”

"General Ziyi didn't say it. Now our ministry has overwhelmed the counties of Qingzhou in terms of prestige, and the government is just a name for an accident. Liu Yixun nodded and agreed.

"The government also wants to make Donglai a teacher. It's just that at the moment, it seems that the method of this government is quite stupid. I don't know what kind of magic you have to think of a name for Donglai? Cai Ji humbly asked the three for advice.

"In fact, the prince doesn't have to be so entangled in the name of the teacher. Donglai can use the name of Qingzhou Thorn History to crusade against those who are not satisfied. Guo Jia nodded to Cai Ji earnestly.

However, according to Guo Tu's previous battle plan, Yuan Tan's troops focused on attacking Pingyuan County this time. As for the rest of the counties in Qingzhou, as long as they do not openly oppose Yuan Tan, they are still our allies in name. If the government rashly attacks these counties, it may be held accountable for internal strife. Cai Ji smiled bitterly and spread his hands. Guo Tu's plan can certainly minimize Yuan Tan's losses, but at the same time, it also makes her friendly army have less opportunities to fish for oil and water.

However, Guo Jia at this time obviously did not agree with Cai Ji's statement. But seeing him wave his hand, he smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Has the prince forgotten that he is now the commander of the Cao Du ordered by Yuan Tingshi?" Since the prince of the government is in charge of the military rations, he can collect grain and grass from the surrounding counties and counties in the name of Yuan Tingshi, and purge the thieves along the way on the grounds of escorting the military rations. But whoever does not obey let him be requisitioned."

But whoever does not obey should be requisitioned - a good reason for domineering

I like it, though.

After listening to Guo Jia's remarks, Cai Jidun was enlightened. Indeed, Yuan Tan's appointment of Cai Ji as the commander of Cao seems to have excluded the Donglai army from the battlefield. But in essence, he gave Cai Ji a Shang Fang sword that was pointing where to fight in Qingzhou. After all, Yuan Tan did not say that the military rations must be provided by Donglai County. That Cai Ji collected grain and grass from other counties, which is also a legitimate thing. However, although Donglai can attack a wide range at this time, Cai Ji is not stupid enough to be an enemy of all the counties in Qingzhou. Therefore, at this moment, she then asked, "Then who do you think this government should ask for food?" ”

The grain requisition target that Cai Ji asked was naturally not the kind that could be successfully collected, but the kind of diehards who would definitely refuse in one bite. It's just that he hasn't waited for Guo Jia and Tai Shici to speak. On the other side, Liu Yixun took the lead in replying, "Beihai Kong Wenju." ”

So, four days later, a military ration order stamped with the seal of the commander of Qingzhou was sent to Changcheng, the capital of Beihai County. Kong Rong, who was originally playing chess with Gongcao Sun Shao in the study, heard it at first glance, and his subordinates came to report that Donglai had sent an envoy to Beihai to collect grain, but he didn't even look at the order, and directly threw away the chess pieces in his hand, and said angrily, "Bomb out Beihai and feed the puppet army without food

The subordinate was so frightened by Kong Rong's drink that he immediately shrank his head. But he thought about it, and the Donglai envoy waiting outside the city looked like he was also dressed in fresh clothes and bright armor, so he stubbornly said to his lord, "But my lord, the other party claims to be sent by Cai Fujun, the commander of Qingzhou. ”

"Qingzhou Dian Cao Du Lieutenant Cai Fujun? Who's under whom's account? Kong Rong asked with a sneer.

"It is said that it is under the command of Yuan Xiansi, the assassin of Qingzhou." The subordinate replied.

As soon as Kong Rong heard Yuan Tan's name, he immediately blew his beard and glared, "There is only one bastard in Qingzhou Thorn History, Tian Gong." How can Yuan Tan be the pastor of a state at the age of a weak crown. Yuan Benchu's appointment to be the Qingzhou Assassin did not take the imperial court into account at all."

In fact, Kong Rong's words were quite personal. Yuan Shao's appointment as the assassin of Qingzhou is certainly nepotism. But Na Tian Kai is not the Qingzhou Assassin appointed by the imperial court, and the spokesperson of Gongsun Zhanjun's private appointment and dismissal. It is said that Gongsun Zhan planted a total of three thorn histories in the Central Plains, they are Qingzhou Thorn Shi Tian Kai, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Danjing, and Jizhou Thorn Shi Yan Gang. Now Jizhou has long been occupied by Yuan Shao, and Yanzhou has also fallen into Cao Cao's pocket. If Tian Kai is eliminated by Yuan Tan again, it can only be said that Gongsun Zhan's forces have been completely cleared out of the Central Plains. This has nothing to do with the imperial court. But Kong Rong still stubbornly regarded Tian Kai as orthodox and Yuan Tan as a hypocrite. I have to say that this has a lot to do with Kong Rong's own prejudice against Yuan Shao.

Gongcao Sun Shao on the side saw that Kong Rong was getting more and more excited when he saw that he was talking, and then thought of Zuo Chengzu, who was beheaded last year, so he hurriedly glanced at the subordinate who reported the news and asked him to go out quickly. Then he followed and persuaded Kong Rong and said, "The lord is angry. Although Yuan Tan is a puppet official. But Cai Anzhen was appointed and dismissed by the imperial court as the Taishou of Donglai. If the lord drives people out directly, I am afraid that he will offend Donglai. ”

"Cai Anzhen is just an orphan girl. It can achieve the position of Taishou, all thanks to Yuan Benchu's support. It can be seen that it and Yuan Benchu are the same raccoon dog. After Kong Rong snorted disapprerovingly, he thought about it again and said, "That's it, as you said, Cai Anzhen is the Taishou appointed by the imperial court after all, and the etiquette is still required." You will repair a letter for me, saying that Beihai will not serve Yuan Tan as a assassin, and ask her Cai Anzhen to do it herself, and don't help the abuse. ”

Sun Shao'er listened to Kong Rong's intention not only to give food, but also to persuade Cai Anzhen to break away from Yuan Shao. I thought that my father-in-law was really getting more and more nonsense. It's just that Kong Rong can go his own way for the sake of his righteousness, but Sun Shao can't ignore the safety of Beihai. So he hurriedly reminded Kong Rongyi, "Lord, Yuan Benchu and Cai Anzhen have the grace of acquaintance, I'm afraid Cai Anzhen will not betray the Yuan family lightly." What's more, Cai Anzhen is now in charge of the post of Qingzhou Warden, if Beihai does not produce grain, I am afraid that Cai Anzhen will not stop there. ”

"Spare food from the North Sea." Kong Rong said with a straight face, "Donglai is known as the granary of Qingzhou, and she Cai Anzhen can come out of her pocket to fund that Yuan Tan child." ”

Sun Shao saw that Kong Rong hadn't figured out the key for a long time, so he couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "Cough, Lord You still can't see it?" Donglai obviously has grain, but he still came to Beihai to collect grain. This is clearly ill-intentioned."

"What do you mean, then Cai Anzhen intends to get involved in the North Sea?" Kong Rong frowned and asked.

"Therefore, Shao thought that the lord would have to offer some grain and grass more or less this time." Sun Shao persuaded.

Who knew that Kong Rong waved his hand disapprovingly, "Hmph, if Cai Anzhen really has such wolf ambitions, even if he dumps the grain of the whole county of Beihai, it will be difficult to fill his desires." Even if this is the case, it is better to simply not pay a grain of grain. ”

Sun Shao originally thought that Kong Rong had no opinion on the current situation, but when he heard him say this at this moment, he also felt that there was some truth. However, Sun Shao turned to Donglai's terrifying troops, and couldn't help but become even more worried, "If that's the case, the lord has to prepare early." Then Cai Anzhen gathered 20,000 soldiers and horses to go to the plain. If these 20,000 soldiers and horses turned around and attacked the North Sea, how would this be good? ”

"Sun Gongcao doesn't have to worry. That Cai Anzhen and a woman don't know the art of war, and they all rely on General Taishi Ziyi to govern the army. And General Ziyi is loyal and righteous, and he will never make a move to attack Beihai. Kong Rong shook his head confidently.

"At this time and that time, how can the lord pin the safety of Beihai on a martial artist?" Sun Shao said urgently. When I saw Kong Rong on the other side, he still looked determined. Sun Shao couldn't help but retreat and said, "Or, the lord will quickly recruit Gao Mi and order Wang Shuzhi to recruit Duchang?" ”

The high-secret order Wang Shuzhi mentioned by Sun Shao is Wang Xiu, the chief bookkeeper of Kong Rong. It's just that Wang Xiu also serves as the commander of Gaomi County, so he doesn't usually stay in Duchang. However, every time Kong Rong is in trouble, Wang Xiu can always be the first to rush to relieve Kong Rong. So at this moment, seeing that the situation in Beihai was worrying, Sun Shao's first thought was to ask Wang Xiu for help.

No, I heard Sun Shao mention Wang Xiu, and Kong Rong, who had been opening his head with his eyes open, also nodded happily, "Good, it's good to let Shuzhi come here to discuss." ”
