Chapter 767: Compromise

"Damn, Yuan Highway is too deceitful!" Tearing the notebook in his hand in half and throwing it on the ground, Yuan Shao roared with a hideous face.

"Your Majesty, the last general asks for orders to lead the army to break the Chu army, please ask Your Majesty and the ministers to have 50,000 elites, and the ministers will definitely defeat Zhang Wenyuan and regain the lost territory." Zhang He came out of the queue.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are also willing to fight!" Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang also stepped forward.

The other generals were also full of righteous indignation and came out to fight.

"Your Majesty, please think again!" Seeing that the generals were all asking for battle, Yuan Shao was also full of anger, and Guo Tu Fengji rarely stood on the same position and dissuaded in unison.

"Yuan Highway fought without declaring a war and attacked my Jizhou, if he didn't fight, wouldn't it weaken the momentum of our army, so how should the people of the world think of me?" The anger in Yuan Shao's heart did not subside.

"Your Majesty, Leling and Pingyuan are small counties, sparsely populated, and it doesn't hurt to lose part of your territory. Now that the soldiers of our army's northern expedition to Liaodong have not returned, the soldiers of Yecheng must not be moved lightly. Otherwise, if it is taken by Yuan Shu, it may be difficult to resist! Feng Ji said eagerly.

Among the two sides, Yuan Shao was originally at a disadvantage, and this time he also transferred troops to attack Liaodong in the north, and the remaining soldiers were hanging in Yecheng, and they were trying to attack in vain. The more than 200,000 elites stationed in Sili, Yuzhou, and Qingzhou are not decorations, and they may force Wei County and attack Yecheng directly at any time.

You must know that Yecheng, the capital of the Great Zhao Kingdom, is located at the southern end of Jizhou, adjacent to Yanzhou. At first, Yecheng was chosen as the capital, not only because of its wealth, but also because of its geographical location far from Youzhou, so as to avoid Gongsun Zhan's raid. Now, this geographical advantage has become a disadvantage in the face of Yuan Shu, and Yecheng, which is close to the Yellow River, needs to be garrisoned by a large army at all times to prevent Yuan Shu's attack.

Although the location of Yecheng was extremely awkward, Yuan Shao never had the idea of moving the capital. First, Yuan Shao was reluctant to weaken his momentum, if he moved the capital, wouldn't it mean that he Yuan was afraid of Yuan Shu at the beginning? This is something that Yuan Shao will never tolerate. Second, there is indeed no other suitable place for the capital in the three northern states, and the state is occupied by the family, and it is closer to Sili Xiliang, Youzhou is barren and always faces the threat of Liaodong, in comparison, Yuan Shao can only choose Yecheng.

Don't look at Yuan Shao's nominal occupation of Jizhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou, but in fact, only Jizhou is its core. Bingzhou was divided by the families, except for the families who could provide him with a certain army, Yuan Shao couldn't interfere at all. Youzhou is new again, Gongsun Chan won the hearts of the people of Youzhou at the beginning, it will take a while to recover the hearts of the people, and the threat of Liaodong cannot be ignored.

Now that Jizhou is almost a county, it has been encroached upon by Zhang Liao's army, which makes Yuan Shao not angry.

"Yuan Highway is so rampant, if I put up with it, won't it make the world laugh?" Yuan Shao also knew in his heart that it was not appropriate to send troops at this time, but he couldn't help but say.

"Your Majesty, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Our army has won a great victory in Liaodong and greatly frustrated the spirit of the Chu army. Isn't it enough to exchange a small amount of land for the lives of more than 20,000 Great Chu elites and several years of stability in northern Xinjiang? Guo Tu persuaded, and at the same time, his eyes flashed slightly to imply the trial.

The judge thought slightly in his heart, and also dissuaded him loudly: "Your Majesty, what Yuan Tu and the public rule said is not unreasonable. Now part of the main forces of our army are in the north, and it is not suitable to move troops. If Your Majesty wants to counterattack, after Yan Liangwen and several generals come back, the minister is willing to lead the army to the expedition for Shuai and give this evil breath for Your Majesty! ”

Seeing the rare unanimous dissuasion of his strategists, Yuan Shao also slowly calmed down, thought for a moment in his heart, exhaled lightly, and snorted coldly: "What Zhongqing said is reasonable, since this is the case, then let Yuan Highway be arrogant for a while, and when he arrives, I must let him return the things he shouldn't have touched with interest!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" The civil servants said in unison.

Although the generals were unwilling but never spoke, although they were brave and warlike, they were not brainless, and they did not advise Yuan Shao to go to war. Because they also know that in the current situation, Zhao is not suitable for war at all.

Fang Cai Xinsheng Dayan, Youzhou's territory has not been completely digested, not only can not provide much help, but it is still a burden, so Yuan Shao has to divide his troops to garrison. At this time, there were less than 100,000 troops in Yecheng, and if troops were dispatched, Yuan Shao, who was besieged by more than 100,000 troops under the internal emptiness, would probably be in danger.

After staying in the next dynasty, Yuan Shao alone summoned Guo Tu and several people into the study.

Yuan Shao sat on the main seat, quietly sipping tea, his face was extremely calm, and there was no anger and unwillingness in the court before. Slowly put down the teacup and said lightly: "Yuan Highway bites very hard!" It seems that he was really provoked. ”

"If Youruo killed more than 20,000 of his elites in Liaoxi this time, Yuan Highway will naturally be angry." Guo Tu said with a smile.

"It's just a defeat, Yuan Highway won't be so narrow-minded. But taking an inconsequential county does not seem to be unwilling, but more like a demonstration and ...... Warn. Feng Ji said with a little hesitation.

"What Yuan Tu says is the same as what Pei thinks. With the 50,000 elites led by Zhang Liao, since they chose to send troops to attack our Jizhou, how could they stop only after conquering a small county? It is completely possible to take the opportunity to take the Bohai Sea directly. This senseless act is not so much like venting, but more like a warning. The judge said approvingly.

"Warning what?" Guo Tu asked in a strange tone. He was extremely unhappy with the singing and singing of the match and Feng Ji, and couldn't help but pick a thorn.

"If you didn't grab land on this trip, and didn't hurt and kill the people, with Yuan Highway's character, I'm afraid the crux of the problem lies with Sun Bofu." Feng Ji said thoughtfully.

"You mean that Youruo wants to kill Sun Bofu?" A complicated look flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, and he asked in a flat tone.

"Nine times out of ten, otherwise Yuan Highway would not be so angry, he is a warning to His Majesty. This time, Sun Ce will not die, but if there is a next time, I am afraid it will not be as simple as just a county. Feng Ji said quietly.

"If Xun You takes matters into his own hands and wants to kill Sun Bofu? Is he crazy? Guo Tu said with horror and disbelief.

"If you act steadily, if it weren't for something unexpected happening to Sun Bofu, he would definitely not be so decisive, it is estimated that he wants to carry this matter down by himself. Your Majesty, do you remember when the Tiger Prison closed down the Alliance? Feng Ji's eyes were full of wisdom.

"Sun Bofu?" Yuan Shao's mind suddenly appeared of the heroic and unyielding young man when the princes of the world met together, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a trace of bitterness: "Such a hero, but unfortunately he is only a righteous son of the road." If this person's surname is Yuan, how good it would be. ”

The words were mostly lonely, as if he remembered his three unproductive sons.

Lost in thought, he didn't notice that as soon as he said this, a hint of color flashed in the eyes of the three people below.
