"Ci Cao is in charge of litigation on weekdays, and Fu Cao Peng is also a good verbal hand, today he wants to learn from the lobbyists in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and move me purely with words?" In the face of Fu Xun's calmness, Guan Yu was obviously a little unimpressed, and he was nine feet tall and had a long beard and a red face, even if he sat there and hummed slightly, he was majestic. "If that's the case, Fu Jun can't help but take it for granted."

"To say it below, the general's words are inevitably biased." Fu Xun stood in the hall, still unhurried. "Whether it is a word or a lobbyist, if what is said is unreasonable, and there are still people listening, then the speaker is insidious and the listener is ignorant; And if it makes sense, but no one listens, then the speaker has no self-knowledge, and the listener is arrogant...... Therefore, I will only be reasonable, and the general will only listen to it, and it will not be too late to talk about it later. ”

These words became more and more like playing with his mouth, so Guan Yu frowned more and more, only thinking that the other party was Gongsun Xun's direct subordinate Cao Peng did not have a seizure, but after all, he kept silent and waited for the other party to explain.

"General." Fu Gong bowed and said seriously. "Let's talk about the general's uneasiness first, I just said that I went north to Handan and left Chaoge, is there a reason why General Wei is worried that the general is not enough to be in charge?"

"Yes, yes." Guan Yu said proudly. "The prince said that he brought a large army to Hebei after the autumn...... Even so, it is only a summer and an autumn, and I, Guan Yu, led 3,000 soldiers to sing in the court, asking myself how to keep it for three or five months? Yuan thieves come to the crowd, and I am the prince and the marquis; Come to thousands of people, I will swallow it for myself! Why abandon the city?! ”

"It's the other way around!" Fu Xun laughed for a moment. "Where is General Wei worried that he can't hold Hanoi? He was obviously worried about Handan's loss, so he wanted to let the heroic warriors and the 3,000 soldiers here go to the aid of Handan...... This is precisely because I believe in the ability of the commander at the foot to entrust this matter to the foot. ”

Guan Yu was slightly stunned, but he had nothing to say.

"As for why you have to protect Handan," Fu Gongyi continued to spread his hands in the hall and smiled. "General Guan is the general who leads the troops, and he has been in Handan, and now he has been in Chaoge for many years, so he should know better than me......"

Guan Yu was silent for a while.

"General!" Yang Jun saw that Fu Xun was so good at brushing his hair, and he was surprised in his heart, and he quickly got up to persuade him. "The meaning of the prince is already very clear, he is worried about the state minister and values the general's martial arts...... Moreover, the ancient capital of Handan, there are indeed many people in Fu, far beyond the song of the court, and it also covers Taihang, so it should not be abandoned! ”

In other words, Guan Yunchang, as a person who knows the army in the world, how can he not understand strategic things? Even he knows more than Yang Jun, and he does know that the strategic importance of Handan is greater than that of Chaoge. In other words, he knew from the beginning that Chaoge's existence was far more offensive than defensive, and it was to answer Gongsun Xun's attack on Yecheng from the direction of Henan. But now that Yuan Shao has obviously seized the opportunity and launched an offensive with a large army first, then Chaoge is actually not of much significance under the overall situation of attack and defense.

The lonely city hangs in the rear, and 3,000 soldiers may be able to defend it, but what if Handan is lost here? If that's the case, Gongsun Xun will definitely go to Hedong to enter the state and turn to Changshan or Zhao, what is the meaning of Chaoge here?

Therefore, Guan Yunchang's doubts are just that he feels that he abandoned Chaoge and went to Handan, and he has the feeling of losing his family and going to Zhengnan, and then his personality makes him naturally unhappy. And once Fu Xun reversed, put him in the position of the rescuer, and smoothed his hair, he had actually untied this knot in his heart.

Therefore, Guan Yu was not dissatisfied, so Zhengse continued: "The overall situation is ahead, I naturally understand the principle of rescuing important places, but wherever the commander of the army is about to fight, there must be a division between the main and the secondary, otherwise there will be a struggle for power...... And I am General Zhenwu, and Zhengnan is Zhao Xiang, both of which are two thousand stones, and at that time it was a war, who is the master and who is from? This is not clear to the prince, which is really strange. ”

This is the meaning of recognizing Fu Xun's previous sophistry, and Fu Gongyi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly continued his argument of brushing his hair: "With all due respect, according to the following, General Wei has actually divided the responsibilities very clearly here, and there will never be a struggle for power when he goes to Handan...... In fact, the division of rights and responsibilities between the two is actually on the difference between these two thousand stones. ”

Guan Yu had already had a little pleasing to Fu Xun at this time, and his words were somewhat polite, so he raised his hand slightly: "Please Fu Cao Peng explain it for me." ”

"It's simple, it's easy to say." Fu Xun hurriedly leaned over and saluted back, and then he was honest. "The general is just a place for a long time, and he hasn't figured it out for a while. In fact, over the years, our princes have done things, and they have a lot of system, the so-called name is in line with the reality, and the separation of military and political affairs in the local area is to imitate the Zhou rites in the army, and those who go out to fight are the army, and those who defend and defend are the teachers...... Therefore, the foot is the general Zhenwu, and the battle is Zhenwu; And the judge is Zhao Guoxiang, and he should defend his capital with the responsibility of defending the land! If you have to say it more carefully, it is nothing more than that there must be an attack where you defend it, and the army of Yuan thieves is coming, so naturally it is to judge the country and defend the city, and General Guan will fight, that's all! ”

This time, Fu Gongyi was really not brushing his hair, but reasonable and modest, and Guan Yu couldn't help but caress the armrest of the Taiwei chair when he heard the Tao: "Fu Jun's words are indeed irrefutable!" ”

Fu Xun not only didn't like it when he heard this, but he avoided it and smiled bitterly to apologize: "General Meng praised, but as a messenger, he should have conveyed the meaning clearly for General Wei and clarified his doubts." It's just that although these two doubts have been solved, there is another hesitation at the foot, but there is nothing to say at the bottom, and the difficult thing is pushed to the general, how can I be embarrassed to be praised? ”

The topic of the last sergeant and the common people is really embarrassing, and Yang Jun is beside him, although he is also helpless, but as a former subordinate of the local county Cheng and General Wei, it is not easy to avoid this topic.

However, just when Yang Jicai got up and was about to persuade this Zhenwu general, he didn't expect Guan Yunchang to step forward with his conceited hands, and then opened his mouth to Fu Xunding: "There is no need to say another thing Fu Cao Peng, I have already made a decision!" Or rather, this matter can only be handled in this way, and we can't live up to it! ”

Everyone in the hall was shocked for a moment.

In the middle of summer in June, the weather is hot, Hebei, Central Plains, Guanzhong, and Xuyang have entered the hottest time of the year.

And in this June, compared with the step-by-step in the melee in the Central Plains, compared with the silence in Guanzhong, Yuan Shao relied on one victory and one defeat in two major battles, as well as the prestige of himself leading the people of more than ten counties of Qingyan to the north, as well as the defection of the city at a critical moment and key locations, and finally stood out completely in the situation of the top three in Jizhou and settled the overall situation.

At the beginning of June, when Gongsun Xun's messenger had not yet returned to Changping, Yuan Shao decisively adopted the advice of Chen Gong, Xu You and others, and still summoned the elite of Jieqiao, together with the Qingzhou army that crossed the river, and the headquarters that had taken a short rest, and immediately went north with an absolutely superior force.

The army that gathered all the main forces, even the soldiers with auxiliaries, not to mention 100,000? And 100,000 people along the Yellow River are divided into two roads, echoing the north, and marching along the way is strictly organized, step by step, mainly attacking the city and conquering the land, and there is no intention of seeking an opportunity to fight a decisive battle.

In this regard, Gongsun Zhan, who did not have a fighter, had no choice but to retreat...... Fortunately, his people transferred the materials and ordnance of Nanpi to the north of Zhangshui and sent them to Yi County in advance, which can be regarded as meeting the enemy lightly and calmly advancing and retreating, so they were not blocked by the other party on the south bank of Zhangshui.

On June 12, Nanpi fell; On June 18, Zhang Wu fell; On June 20, Gongsun Zhan officially crossed Zhangshui and headed for Yi County after receiving a definite reply from Gongsun Xun from Changping.

On June 21, Gao Lan, who had recovered from his wounds, led his troops across the river to pursue, but was once again counterattacked by the Youzhou Assault Cavalry on the bank of Zhangshui, but fortunately, the follow-up soldiers and horses arrived one after another, so as not to cause greater casualties.

On June 22, when Gongsun Zhan led the remaining cavalry to retreat to Yishui through Hejian County, he was attacked by the locals of Yanxian County who had divided his troops in advance and attacked him with open jaws, and suffered another small defeat.

However, as everyone knows, when the Battle of Gongsun Chan Plain suddenly collapsed, these small victories and small defeats did not matter.

All in all, Gongsun Chan's attempt at personal ambition ended here. He started as a lieutenant about two years ago, and in more than a year, he crossed the two prefectures of Hebei and Qingdao, and took the two largest counties in the two prefectures, and may also be the two largest counties in the four prefectures of Hebei, but after the official war with Yuan Shao, it ended in less than half a year.

I don't know what to say.

At the same time, as early as June 12, after the fall of Nanpi, Jizhou Mu Hanfu lost the last trace of resistance, and his people rejected the suggestion of Changshi Gengwu, Zhizhong Min Chun and others to lead the last 10,000 troops to defend the city, and instead decided to accept the suggestions of his own Yingchuan ancestors, that is, Xin Ping, Xin Bi, Xun Chen, Guo Tu and others...... Officially sent an envoy to ask for surrender to his benefactor, Yuan Benchu, who is now the most powerful in the Yuan clan.

In all fairness, Han Fu seems to have tried his best to resist in Jizhou.

At the beginning, facing the biggest threat, Gongsun Xun, his people immediately hugged Yuan Shao's thigh; Then Gongsun Xun marched westward, Yuan Shao tried to forcibly occupy the support troops sent by Jizhou, and this Han Jizhou Fu sent Pan Feng, a famous general in the state, to rectify and try to recapture the troops; Later, Yuan Shao officially went north and occupied Qinghe, and he also decisively tore his face and tried to attack at night......

By this time in June of the first year of Jian'an, his people had no soldiers and horses, and the territory of the four counties was also encroached upon, leaving only one Wei County and half of Anping, so his people had no soldiers, no generals, no officials, and no officials, facing the 100,000 troops of the former lord Yuan Shao on the side, as well as the persuasion of countless Yingchuan old people, surrender seemed to be his only choice at this time.

Not too harsh!

However, the people who have really stayed in Yecheng in the past two years know that their situation has been decided more than a year ago.

You must know that at that time, when it was to discuss Dong, Liu Hui and Fu Zhu actually admonished Han Fu, but persuaded Han Wenjie to personally raise troops to the south to ...... But he was rejected by Han Fu. Since then, Liu Zihui, Fu Gong and the two have never persuaded each other, and they have been watching from the sidelines throughout the whole process.

The reason is very simple, although Jizhou is extremely rich and developed, it is not a beautiful place, and it is stuck in the two powers, and in the troubled times, either you die or I die, so if you want to stand up, the only way out for the forces here in Jizhou is to take the initiative to fight out!

And even if Han Wenjie could only master four counties at that time, it was enough to be called a first-class prince in the world, and he was conditioned to go out! But since he chose to shrink, he is destined to end up today.

Those later measures, to be honest, in the eyes of these people, only increased the casualties, it is better to jump and surrender in the first place! It's embarrassing to save today!

But how to say it?

In the first two years of the troubled times, it was the time when the big waves washed the sand, two years ago, nearly 40 princes begged for Dong, plus Dong Zhuo himself, as well as Liu Yan, Han Sui, Ma Teng, how many people in the world were divided into 40?

However, in just two years, the dead died, the dead died, the defeated were defeated, and the fleeing escaped, the strong such as Dong Zhuo, the weak such as Kong Rong, the incompetent such as Liu Dai, the good fighter such as Gongsun Zhan, the lucky such as Han Sui, and the unlucky such as Bao Xin...... Those who should leave the stage are gone.

At this moment, all that can be left is nothing more than these categories.

Ru Shixie, Liu Yan is biased; For example, Liu Biao and Tao Qian can appease and deter a state; For example, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian spent most of their time relying on the strong as a buffer...... The rest are Gongsun Xun and Er Yuan.

was defeated and retreated by Cao Sun and Liu Biao, and has lost half of Runan, a Jiujiang, and even Nanyang, which has lost a few cities of the thousand-year-old Yuan Highway and does not mention it...... Gongsun Xun and Yuan Shao, however, have actually formed a terrifying scene of confrontation along the entire Yellow River valley for thousands of miles, and it is about to break out.

It is completely foreseeable that the two sides will stage a full-scale showdown that will determine the fate of the entire North China on the unobstructed Hebei Plain!

Even some people in a hurry have already seen it because of the time and geography, with the grain storage of Sanfu, Hebei and Central Plains after the autumn as the line, Yuan Shao will attack first, and Gongsun Xun will attack later, and the battlefield will inevitably break out between Handan and Yecheng...... In the words of Aunt Gongsun, this is like a turn-based game, which inexplicably fits.

In late June, before Yuan Shao was about to return to the army, at the junction of Wei County and Hanoi County in the south of Yecheng, there was suddenly a large group of tens of thousands of migrants, and there were even thousands of soldiers with strict banners and clear queues...... And from south to north, all the way non-stop.

In Yecheng, Han Fu had just given out his own seal, and he heard the right and wrong outside the city, but he simply left the official temple with his family and hid in the old mansion of Zhao Zhong, who was a regular servant in the past, as a excuse.

The incident happened suddenly, and the situation was unclear, and all the people in the city were at a loss, so they had to gather one after another to find the Wei County Taishou Suju. As for Su Ju, although he is the only one in the city with 2,000 stones, but now Yecheng is about to change hands, Yuan Shao is about to arrive, and Han Fu is not leaving, so how can he be the master?

However, in the end, how can he not understand in his heart? Ben immediately stretched out his hand and pointed out the power and responsibility of the last 10,000 soldiers and horses in Yecheng and several surrounding branch cities to Xin Ping, Guo Tu and other Yingchuan people...... Then he went back to the house for a lunch break.

Of course, this is what Xin Ping and the others wanted, so a group of Yingchuan scholars immediately ordered Yecheng and the surrounding Dirty City, Jiuhou City, and Wucheng to close their doors and guard together, and at the same time sent sentry horses to the south to check the situation in order to find out what was going on!

However, there is no need for these people to check at all, and soon someone took the initiative to report that the news came, and some knights approached the city of Yecheng, and then shouted in the city, saying that the people of Chaoge heard that the court rebelled Yuan and the thief was about to come to Wei County, and in order to avoid military disasters, help the old and the young, and prepare to go to Zhao State...... He also said that the officials in Yecheng City should prepare food and divert water.

At first, few people believed this, but as the sentinel rode Pegasus to report, saying that Handan in the north suddenly sent thousands of soldiers and horses to the south, and the people of Yingchuan in Yecheng were speechless and confirmed who the person was.

"It must be that Guan Yu and Handan are matched, and when they heard that Yecheng had changed hands, they drove the people away, trying to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to steal the city!" Back in the empty official temple, as soon as everyone sat down, Guo Tu opened his mouth and came.

"General Wei wouldn't do such a thing." Although Fu Zhu is not from Yingchuan and has no decision-making power, as a person named by Yuan Shao to be trusted and retained, he still has the right words. "The princes of all walks of life in the world, those who treat the people with leniency, the first general in Wei, I am afraid that it is really spontaneous migration......"

The near-deterministic judgment immediately made Xin Ping, Xin Bi, Xun Chen and others, who originally wanted to speak, difficult to speak...... These people, their positions are there, they are all former officials of the Yuan family, they are all from Yingchuan, and they are also the main force that persuaded Han Fu to surrender before, and the big war is imminent, so it is very boring to let them echo and frustrate General Wei at this time.

But they have also lived in Yecheng for a year or two, and they are absolutely convinced of the talent and wisdom of the frustrated professor, so it is not easy to refute each other.

"General Wei may not be so unorthodox, but what about Guan Yu?" Guo Tu was the only one who was refuted in person, and he was a local of Jizhou, so he couldn't help but argue. "Can't it be this Guan Yunchang who did it alone? Thousands of miles away, can General Wei still know the truth here? Moreover, I have been in Hanoi for a long time before I went down, and I have always known that this person is an arrogant martial artist, who was born as a prisoner in Hedong, but he dares to repeatedly drive out the military officials sent by my lord to Chaoge, and delay the overall situation of Dong......"

"Guan Yun has been singing in the court for many years," frustration is rare to be positive. "We and other natives know that they are proud and compassionate, and even more so when it comes to caring for the people! And Zheng Zhengnan is also an innocent and upright person, and he will never help Guan Yunchang to cheat! It will not drive the people and steal the city! ”

Guo Tu sneered more and more, and was about to refute again, but unexpectedly, behind him, someone suddenly sneered first. Although his voice was slight, it seemed direct when most of the people around him were silent.

And Guo Gong looked back, but also a little helpless, it turned out that the person who laughed turned out to be his distant clan, called Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, who had just become an adult and was crowned not long ago, and he had never done anything, and this time the Yingchuan scholars suddenly seized the power of the city, so they couldn't care too much, and they also called him to do business.

"If you don't know what to teach?" Seeing that it was the person behind Guo Tu, he thought he was mocking himself, and he also turned cold.

"It's not meant to be taught." Guo Jia, who didn't have any hair on his mouth, raised his sword and stared left and right. "It's just curious that the clan brother and the frustration are so arguing that they are red-faced...... Why exactly? ”

Guo Tu held his knees, twisted his beard slightly, and both were a little angry, but the two of them were just about to open their mouths to refute, but they were embarrassed together.

In other words, the two of them only woke up at this time, regardless of whether Guan Yunchang took the people north or drove the people to steal the city, didn't they all have to close the city and strictly guard it?

Otherwise, is there a second way to go?

Oh, Yuan Shao is not here, could it be that someone still wants to join the common people and sneak attack those 3,000 soldiers? Is your brain pumping? And in this official temple, who can open this mouth, who dares to give this order?

As for opening the door to deliver food......

In short, one of these smart people around him is counted as one, and they all gradually woke up, and then lost their words in embarrassment.

"That's good." And in the midst of an embarrassing silence, Xin Ping came forward with a shy face and made a pertinent suggestion. "On the one hand, he sent people to the three surrounding cities to supervise the troops to close the city and defend themselves; On the one hand, we can also send a messenger to tell Guan Yu that we allow him to pass calmly from the city, but the food really can't be with him. ”

Everyone bowed their heads, but for a while they didn't know who to send as a messenger and who would be in charge of the defense of the three small cities around Yecheng.

You know, it's okay to go somewhere else, but the people in this official temple still probably know Guan Yu's temper and ability...... Although he was not famous all over the world after the Dong Rebellion, he was in Yingchuan and Hebei during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and he was well-known for a while, and Gongsun Xun begged Dong that day, in addition to one Gongsun Fan, he also expressed two generals, which shows his trust and reliance on Guan Yu.

Then go back to the present, think about it, if you send a Jizhou person, then Guan Yunchang squinted his eyes, and came to a 'thief who betrayed the master, everyone will kill him', and then chop it with a knife?

If you send a Yingchuan person, it will be more direct - 'those who are rebellious, it is natural to kill them'!

What to do?

Moreover, among the three small cities, there are nothing else, the westernmost sewage city, far away, separated by two small rivers, but it is very likely that Guan Yu crossed the sewage and joined the Handan reinforcements...... Although everyone understands that there is no point in taking only one foul city, what if Guan Yu is in a bad mood, or simply wants to demolish the filthy city for the sake of future wars?

What do you say about the guards of the Dirty City? Will it be chopped too?! And even if you can come back alive, this Yuan car is coming soon, what do you say if you don't get a city first?

"The envoy has to find an insignificant one," the official temple is full of smart people, such as Xun Chen, who quickly summed up the biggest requirements of these two candidates. "Let Guan Yunchang not pay attention to it; You have to find a stable one over the city, otherwise it will be difficult to defend the city, and it will not be easy to deal with emergencies...... Who are you going? ”

The people of Jizhou such as Fu Zhu, as well as those who had positions in the state before, naturally closed their eyes and recuperated, anyway, it was the Yingchuan people who were in power, and it was not their turn to take risks with this group of Jizhou people. In fact, many officials in the state were still extremely unacceptable to Han Fu at this time, and it is said that many people secretly had plans...... At this juncture, those who can come here to speak are actually quite good, and Xin Ping, Xun Chen and others also know that they can't push these people out anymore.

"How about being a messenger?" In another embarrassing silence, suddenly there was a twenty-seven or eighteen person behind Xun Chen, with a face like a crown of jade, and a clear and clear expression, who spoke softly, but it was the former Huangmen squire, the palace guard, the most outstanding person in Xun's generation, Xun Yu Xun Wenruo. "And then how about going down to the city to work hard?"

Xun Chen wanted to speak and stopped, and the people around him also looked at each other.

"Then let's say so!" However, Guo Tu, who had been with Xun Yu in Yinde for Yingchuan and was too punctual in the same hall, suddenly got up and responded. "We can't say that we Yingchuan scholars don't take care of it...... If Wen Ruo and Feng Xiao take on this important responsibility, they can always serve the public, right? ”

Everyone was speechless, so they could only take this as the standard, and then discussed two candidates to go to Jiuhou City and Wucheng to 'labor army', and then dispersed.

Xun Yu walked the slowest, but as soon as he came out of the hall, under the scorching sun, he was hurriedly stopped by his brother Xun Chen, who was waiting in front of the hall: "Wen Ruo, why do you take the risk yourself?" And didn't you say okay, the general trend is coming, I'll come out to deal with it first, and when Yuan Benchuren arrives, let's take a good look at one or two, and then talk about others? ”

"In troubled times, this kind of thing can't be avoided." Xun Yu stood in front of the hall and smiled slightly. "Where not to take risks? As for why he went to the polluted city, he was just curious, and he wanted to see whether Guan Yunchang would return to the north with the people or drive the people to steal the city, and the elder brother didn't have to worry about it. ”

"Didn't Bong-hyo say it all? There is no difference ...... this kind of thing" Xun Chen is also helpless.

"What Bong Hyo said is not right." Xun Yu shook his head. "Some things don't make a difference to some people, but some things matter to some people...... Brother don't worry about it, I don't think Guan Yunchang will kill people, even if he really kills people, he also died first, he died, no one reported peace to me, I just avoided it. ”

Xun Chen reluctantly turned around and left, but he couldn't walk a few steps, but he saw Guo Jia standing behind a big tree in front of the hall with the long sword in his waist for a long time, as if he had heard it clearly, but he couldn't help but shake his head more and more, and then walked away.

Xun Yu was not in a hurry, and continued to move forward to his subordinates, and he didn't care at all about Guo Jia's appearance here, as if he had already seen it: "Fengxiao ......"

"Brother Wen Ruo doesn't have to explain." Guo Jia held the sword in one hand and covered his nose with the other. "I also wanted to meet the characters under General Wei, but I only saw Zhengnan when I went to Handan before, and I haven't seen this Guan Yunchang yet...... And besides, not to mention that I can see the shape of the people from a distance, I can also know whether these people are driven or spontaneously migrated, or they are really unlucky to be killed alive, and I must first send someone to report a fake peace, and deceive Brother Wen Ruo to stay in the dirty city and go to Huangquan with me in the future...... In this case, what is there to be reluctant to? ”

"I see." Xun Yu laughed for a moment. "But I was wrong, but I never knew that Fengxiao was so insidious...... But don't cover your nose, okay? I know that summer incense smells bad with sweat, so I threw away the sachet when I went back, right? ”

"Throw it now!" Guo Jia said earnestly. "It smells so bad, it's unbearable for a moment! Besides, you led us to flee from Yingchuan to this point before, wasn't it useless on the road, and no one disliked you? How to settle down a little and smoke incense again? I can't afford to buy good incense, so I can only buy bad incense! ”

"I'm just used to it." Under the mottled shadows of the trees, Xun Yu lowered his head and untied his sachet, and then sighed faintly for a while. "How can decades of habits be easily broken?"

————I'm used to it————

"Xun Yu at the end of the Han Dynasty, beautiful and groomed, talking to people like a spring breeze, and good incense. Therefore, it is often said: 'Xun Jun goes to people's homes and sits for three days. —"The World Speaks New Language". Tolerance
