Killing Yuan Tan was actually unplanned, although Liu Bei wanted to solve Yuan Shao, but he didn't think about killing his son first.

In fact, it is interesting to plan to capture Yuan Shao's family.

After all, that's more atmospheric, right, killing such a junior as Yuan Tan now, in fact, according to Liu Bei's thoughts, Yuan Tan is not qualified to let him be a killer, and if he wants to kill, kill Yuan Benchu.

Zhao Yun asked people to settle Tian Feng, called placement, but it was actually surveillance, since it fell into his hands, how could he let him fly, even if Tian Feng wanted to commit suicide at this time, he had no chance.

Zilong's work is still reassuring, and most things are safe.

In fact, Zhao Yun himself didn't expect that the battle of Bohai County, which everyone had been preparing for so long, would end so hastily.

He even had a feeling that every big battle on his side would always be much more foreshadowing than a meal, but maybe this was their style, because before the battle, Chen Chen would ask them to be prepared.

"Don't fight unprepared battles."

When the preparation for the current period is sufficient, in fact, there will not be too many unexpected things in the battle.

Of course, this is only because the scale of the current war is not particularly large, and most of it is still under control, and everyone's attention to Liu Bei before has not reached the level of attention it is now.

Chen Chen has already communicated with Liu Bei and Xun You, although now in the early stage, no matter what the situation of his own battle is, he is the one who has the upper hand, and he will not suffer too much loss at all, and most of the things are carried out according to his own arrangement, and it does not exceed everyone's expectations.

But with Liu Bei now occupying the three states of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou, they will receive far more attention and vigilance than any previous period, so if there are any losses and war losses in the future, they must be mentally prepared to accept it.

Moreover, Chen Chen has already given Liu Bei a preventive shot, if his own forces are too strong, this strength is relative to any one of the forces alone, and then he may have to face the unity of other forces to resist his own side.

This kind of vertical and horizontal trend is actually not very easy to fight, and it is more about starting with the enemy's alliance, rather than really fighting the princes of the world with their own strength.

Even if it is as strong as Great Qin, it is slowly pushed over by distant and close attacks.

No matter how strong the strength is, if you want to put pressure on most of the world at the same time, you will suffer a great loss.

Even Chen Chen was ready to suffer a loss in this battle in Bohai County.

Because in some ways, if the battle of Qingshan Battalion's attack on Zhang Yan Dazhai is not counted, maybe the Battle of Bohai can be regarded as the first regular war of Liu Beijun's internal war.

The previous princes fought against Dong in the name of the Han Dynasty, so it was not a unilateral civil war.

But neither Liu Bei nor Chen Chen expected that Zhao Yun would solve Yuan Tan so easily, take Fuyang City in his hands, and be the first to shoot Yuan Tan directly.

Although this was not in line with the plan and might trigger a strong counterattack from Yuan Shao, they felt that Zhao Yun had done a good enough job.

This cavalry siege was able to take Fuyang City so quickly, in fact, it was also because Zhao Yun shot Yuan Tan that it was able to have this effect, otherwise it is estimated that it would take a long time to fight.

And Liu Bei, who was in Yecheng, also received a letter from Zhao Yun, explaining Tian Feng's situation.

Tian Feng was recommended by Chen Chen, so Liu Bei brought Chen Chen and Xun You to talk about Tian Feng's request.

In fact, according to Liu Bei's own ideas, as well as his understanding of the personalities of his own high-level leaders.

He felt that everyone was not the kind of person who would threaten with the corpse of someone else's son, and that no matter whether Tian Feng made this request or not, everyone would still decide to send Yuan Tan's body back to Yuan Shao intact.

[Jia Xu: No, Xuande Gong, you misunderstood, I'm not the kind of person you think, I'll use it well. 】

But now the main problem lies in the attitude of Tian Feng, a subordinate.

No matter how big Liu Bei is, there is still a little bit of mustard in his heart, he doesn't know what Tian Feng is thinking in his heart, this kind of behavior towards his old club is not like what a strategist with a top IQ can do.

After Chen Chen arrived, he read the letter sent back by Zhao Yun, and looked at Liu Bei's face again, and understood what Liu Bei was thinking.

However, this kind of psychology is human nature, he gave Xun You a look, and Xun You understood.

At this time, he needs to cooperate with Chen Chen to let Liu Bei eliminate the mustard in his heart, otherwise he will not be able to use people smoothly in the future.

Xun You also heard Chen Chen talk to him about Tian Feng many times in private, especially after arriving in Jizhou during this time, Xun You asked Chen Chen if there was anyone in Youzhou, Jizhou who could come out to help preside over the scene, and Chen Chen would always mention Tian Feng.

And he made it more clear in Tian Feng's role, his role is the situation and decision-making.

He is an innate judge.

"Xuande Gong can rest assured."

Xun You spoke first, he understood Chen Chen's eyes, he should be holding back some good things, big guys, and he needs to lay the groundwork himself.

"Since this Tian Yuanhao has the heart to surrender, no matter what his conditions are, his ultimate goal is to surrender, so he will at least not be used by others."

Xun Yu started with the lightest degree, at least, Tian Feng was in his hands, and Yuan Shaofang himself lost a help.

Later, it was analyzed from the current situation, and it was also analyzed in combination with Tian Feng's people.

"And this Tian Yuanhao, naturally, he won't know that if he acts like this, he will be worried by Xuande Gong."

"And if you look at the situation, the Han Fu father and son that Tian Yuanhao played for before are already in Taihang Academy, and Yuan Shao's forces are also our next target, so it is not difficult to take them down."

"If Xuande Gong is not at ease, he only needs to settle him for this time, and after Yuan Shao is solved, he will be used again, and there will be no worries."

Xun You is still smart, with such a partner, Chen Chen calmed Liu Bei's mood a lot easier.

Xun You saw that Chen Chen was secretly gesturing to him, and he understood that Chen Chen was ready, and nodded.

"Xuande Gong might as well listen to Brother Chen's thoughts."

Liu Bei thought for a while, raised his head, and looked at Chen Chen, he still expected Chen Chen to comfort himself a little, so that he could let go of some strange thoughts about Tian Feng's operations in his heart.

Chen Chen rubbed his chin, he actually understood Tian Feng's thoughts, but he didn't like Tian Feng's somewhat coercive surrender method very much.

Because according to Tian Feng's character, if he doesn't agree, Tian Feng may most likely be buried directly.

This is not because of how deep Tian Feng's affection and loyalty to Yuan Tan is.

People like Tian Feng, they are absolute diehards.

But they are not loyal to any one person, their loyalty is to be true to themselves, to their own ideas, to make all their actions conform to their own ideas, to follow their own principles.

Among Tian Feng's principles, there must be a clause about the lord who serves.

So Tian Feng may go to the funeral, but not for Yuan Tan's funeral, but for his own principles.

When you meet this kind of person, you really can't do anything about him, you can only follow them, after all, you care about their lives, and sometimes they don't care about themselves, which is really a headache.

"What do you think, sir?"

Liu Bei opened his mouth and asked Chen Chen.

Chen Chen coughed twice, which was regarded as an opening for himself.

"Actually, I don't know what kind of ingredient Xuan Degong thinks Tian Yuanhao is now?"

"Ingredients?"

Liu Bei was stunned, sir, what new words have been tossed out again?

Do you want to ask what this Tian Feng is made of?

"Now that Yuan Tan is dead, if Yuan Tan's forces are separated from Yuan Shao's forces, then Tian Yuanhao can be regarded as a defeated minister at this time, and he is also a subordinate."

Chen Chen asked and answered himself, he knew that Liu Bei probably didn't know what he meant.

"Since he is a defeated minister, what should he do at this time is the right one?"

Here it is again, Chen Chen's best part is to ask the truth and knowledge.

Liu Bei felt the feeling of being forced to ask for a long time, and he understood that every time he arrived at this link, he could always experience a feeling of sudden enlightenment, so as to understand some truths, and then gain life insights and see through some problems.

"Hmm... Let me think about it. ”

Liu Bei seriously began to think about Chen Chen's question, that is, if he is a defeated minister now, his lord has just died, but his lord and his father are still in the south, and he must have nowhere to go at this time, so he can only choose to surrender.

However, when it comes to surrendering, what kind of attitude should you have to face the new owner?

Did you start working for the new owner as soon as you came up, and then sell the old one directly?

Tian Feng should come to Yecheng immediately at this time, and then suggest that we exchange Yuan Tan's corpse for something in Yuan Shao's hand?

No!

"If it were me, maybe I would still maintain respect for the original owner when I descended, and I would be able to stretch and bend, but I would also be neither humble nor arrogant to the new master, and see if I was valued, and if I was not valued, I would find another way out, and if I was valued, I would dedicate my life's learning."

If Liu Bei put himself in the perspective of a defeated minister, he instantly understood what a person like himself would do.

Looking at it this way, in fact, Tian Yuanhao's temper is a bit similar to his own?

Of course, Liu Bei would not be buried for the original owner, and he had no way to understand Tian Feng, but it is estimated that except for Chen Chen, no one would think that Tian Feng would commit suicide or anything after being rejected.

"Actually, it's very simple."

Chen Chen took advantage of Liu Bei's answer to start the output of some of his theories.

"As a defeated retainer, if you can put all your enthusiasm on the new owner at the moment of surrender, then as a new member of the new owner, you can indeed get a lot of credit in the early stage, but what about later?"

"Don't say anything else, if the new owner asks you to defend one side and you fail and are captured, then you already have a precedent of surrendering and betraying the old club, will your new owner let you do things with confidence?"

"So as a defeated minister, if you betray the old master as soon as possible, it may be that your future ceiling will be sealed."

"First of all, you don't get to the core of the decision."

"Secondly, there is no way to have independent autonomy, and you can only play the role of an auxiliary staff member forever."

"The most important thing is that the identity will still be mentioned again, and there is a possibility that you will be rejected from the new owner."

"The defeated ministers were forced to surrender after the defeat, they are different from those who voted with the message of the old master because of contradictions and conflicts, those people can be called abandoning the darkness and turning to the light, and they abandon the darkness and turn to the light is their own decision-making wisdom, but for the defeated ministers, the credit for their abandonment of the dark and the light lies in the people who persuaded them to abandon the dark and turn to the light."

"Therefore, I privately think that the defeated ministers should raise their heads and surrender."

Chen Chen's voice was firm and powerful, as if he would do the same in the future.

Liu Bei: Uh-huh?

But in fact, Chen Chen still left some words, such as if this defeated minister was not valued by others, then he would ask for it with his head held high, and there was a high probability that his head would be cut off directly.

This theory only applies to generals and ministers who are valued by the enemy, and not to some self-feeling waste.

"In fact, Tian Yuanhao's move is similar to the requirements of those generals who hope not to be enemies of the old master after surrendering."

"Even according to his request, it's actually nothing, and there's no need to amplify it."

"And Tian Yuanhao didn't even say that he didn't participate in the plan against Yuan Shao."

"Xuande Gong trusts me, if we give Tian Yuanhao trust, he will definitely bring us unexpected surprises."

In fact, Chen Chen was quite surprised when he knew that Tian Feng was left in Bohai County, but it was a pity that he didn't stay, but he was greedy.

Because when the advisors are separated from the lord, their secondary two diseases may not be so serious.

In fact, sometimes after defeat, the lord stays with the strategists and generals, and then cries and shouts, infects each other's emotions, recalls the good things in the past, and then agrees with each other to go to Huangquan together.

In fact, to be honest, this kind of lord is very bad.

Look at those who have not been caught with the lord and have not surrendered, they have all become unequaled loyal ministers, which shows that surrender is a normal choice!

In fact, according to Chen Chen's thoughts.

Everyone's thinking is a little problematic.

Those who can die without fear of death, for loyalty, and with all their blood, are certainly worthy of respect.

But those who choose to survive, as long as they don't cause too much trauma to the old master, then they should not be spurned either.

Because, they just want to live!

Of course, it's a different story with a different race.

Chen Chen admitted it today, he is a naked racist, he just thinks that the Han nation is the only one in heaven and earth, and other alien races just can't, only Han people are human beings, other races, so how to treat it depends on the mood.

"Whew."

The thoughts in Chen Chen's mind were still flying, but Liu Bei figured it out and let out a long breath.

There was no mustard in his heart, and he waved his hand.

"Tell Zilong, yes, let them escort Yuan Tan's body to Qingzhou and return it to Yuan Benchu."

"No!"

Xun You went to the side to draft the letter, and asked people to send the letter back to Fuyang City, which could be regarded as giving Tian Feng an explanation.

They all know that according to this situation, when this letter was written, Tian Feng, a great talent, could be regarded as entering his camp, and they didn't know how much effect he could bring.

But one thing that is certain is that he is a person recognized by Mr. Chen Chen, and a person who can be recognized by Mr. Chen Chen, until now, no one has pulled his crotch.

Even Guo Fengxiao, who was a little frivolous and unreliable before, did a good job of research in Taiyuan and provided a lot of help for Taiyuan's infrastructure work and people's livelihood.

In this battle of the Bohai Sea, he discussed with Guo Yi and proposed a temporary strategy of dismantling and reorganizing the three armies, which brought the conspiracy into play to a level that was too secure to be like a conspiracy.

It can be said that in this Battle of the Bohai Sea, the most eye-catching thing is not Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei's performance on the battlefield.

It's not the embarrassment and loss caused by Ma Chao's small mistakes.

It is the tactics of dismantling and reorganizing the three armed forces discussed by the old and the young.

Before they carried out this tactic, they also consulted the opinions of the three generals, Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao said that the cavalry they led must be strong enough to be obedient, and they also believed in the strength of Zilong's cavalry, so the cooperation was very smooth.

And they also simulated the success rate of Zhao Yun's cavalry siege.

The possibility doesn't need to be measured, Zhao Yun has shown it before.

Everyone knows that Liu Bei's cavalry is very strong now, and in Liu Bei's previous well-known battles, it was the cavalry that shined, whether it was the battle of Yanmen Xianbei or the battle of the Xiongnu annihilation in Baibo Valley, in fact, it was the cavalry that led the whole field.

And not many people know about the battle of the Qingshan Battalion's sneak attack on Zhangyan Dazhai, and there is no battle in the attack on Yecheng.

Therefore, the two special troops of Lu Yi are stronger than Liu Beijun's ordinary foot soldiers, and they can fight, and for the cavalry, they are themselves built as infantry soldiers to restrain the cavalry, so they naturally have a certain restraint consumption effect.

In fact, according to Lu Yi's idea, there is nothing wrong with it, first use his own special troops to cripple Liu Bei's cavalry, and if the other party only has foot soldiers to form a powerful attack, then there is a chance to abandon Bohai, calmly leave Bohai, and go to Qingzhou.

But who would have thought that this wave of koji righteousness is on the second layer.

The old and the young are on the fifth floor.

Our cavalry is strong on the first layer.

You guess the movement of our cavalry, trying to restrain us, this is the second layer.

I guessed that you were going to do it against our cavalry, so we simply stopped your special forces with infantry and used cavalry to attack the city, which is the fifth layer.

Didn't expect that, right?

Speaking of which, in addition to Liu Bei and them, it is estimated that there are few useful cavalry sieges in history, right?

And at this speed, the city was brought down.

However, this kind of combat method is actually irreproducible, this is also what Chen Chen is thinking, there are not so many sassy operations in another time and space, think about it, this world is still more strange, and then there is such a sassy person here who brought them badly, so there are such strange scenes, right?

Otherwise, why hadn't I heard of the operation of the horse stepping on the flying spear on the city wall in my previous life?
