Tian Feng, on behalf of Yuan Shao, took the initiative to negotiate with Cao Xing, this is a big thing, for this matter, Cao Xuan really can't make a decision alone, he told everyone in Shangtang about this matter, no matter how big or small the officials, let them write their opinions. At the same time, Cao Xing also recruited all Fazheng, Jia Xu and others.

Cao Xing's this can be described as brainstorming, and in the end, among the countless opinions of everyone, Cao Xing made a decision and put forward his conditions to Tian Feng, and when he saw Cao Xing's conditions, Tian Feng was also surprised.

Now Yuan Shao wants to take the initiative to stop fighting, after all, his rear has not stabilized, so Yuan Shao has to ask Cao Xing, Cao Xing's side has an advantage, according to reason, no matter what Cao Xing's conditions are, as long as it is not too excessive, Tian Feng has no choice but to agree.

But in the face of this condition, Tian Feng couldn't help but ask Cao Xing: "And the state pastor, do you know what you are doing!" ”

"Oh, does Mr. Tian Feng have any disagreement with my conditions? In that case, I can also change it to another one, let him Yuan Benchu take ten thousand taels of gold, and I will stop fighting! ”

Seeing this situation, Tian Feng knew that there was no result in persuading him any longer, so he didn't say anything more, and quickly returned to Yecheng with Cao Xing's conditions, and when Yuan Shao heard Cao Xing's request, the whole person was also angry.

Cao Xing didn't want money or food, because whether it was money or food, he Cao Xing had enough land.

Cao Xing only put forward one condition, that is, to severely punish those families who deliberately started the war this time.

Tracing back to the source, how this war was fought, it is also very simple, after Cao Xuan occupied the entire state, he issued a series of decrees that forced many families to move out, and those families were naturally unconvinced. After arriving in Jizhou, he immediately took refuge in Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao also loved the power of the family very much, so he naturally accepted it all.

But since those families have taken refuge in you and are willing to be loyal to you, shouldn't you, as the lord, also give something back to others?

And there is only one requirement put forward by these families, that is, to severely punish Cao Xing, and say bad things about Cao Xing in front of Yuan Shao every day, and over time, Yuan Shao also felt that it was time to move Cao Xing, so he united with Cao Cao and launched an attack on Bingzhou together. That's why the Battle of Chaoge was formed.

Now that the battle of Chaoge has been fought, Cao Cao has no time to find Cao Xing's trouble, so Cao Xing will turn around and come to Yuan Shao's bad luck. Cao Xing asked Yuan Shao to drag out all these families who were dissatisfied with him.

Yuan Shao was very hesitant about Cao Xing's suggestion, he originally relied on the support of the family to get up, and asked him to kill all these people from the family for no reason, who would dare to take refuge in him in the future. So Yuan Shao's first thought, that is naturally negative.

However, based on his attitude, Cao Xing did not be polite to him, and directly attacked again with soldiers and horses, and the enemy retreated, and the enemy advanced and I retreated, anyway, he continued to harass Yuan Shao. constantly killed and injured Yuan Shao's vital force, making Yuan Shao uneasy, and even sent Jinyi Guards to Qingzhou, Youzhou, to constantly harass him.

Originally, the situation had not stabilized, and Cao Xing came to harass him again, so the situation on Yuan Shao's side was even more unpleasant. Yuan Shao was angry, but he was helpless against Cao Xing, and in the end he could only make up his mind.

However, it seems unlikely that he will kill those families with his own hands, after all, he doesn't want to be infamous on his back, so Yuan Shao thought of a way to gather all those families who crusaded against Cao Xing in one place.

Yuan Shao said to these families, now the land in Jizhou has been too dense, there is no idle land to give these families, these families want to gain a foothold, it is better to move to Youzhou, where the population is still relatively scarce, just suitable for development, if the barren land in Youzhou is developed, that is his number one hero Yuan Shao here.

So in this way, these families, escorted by a small pair of soldiers and horses, continued to move eastward, only to suddenly encounter countless black people chasing and killing them on the way.

The people of these families are usually pampered, where there is any combat effectiveness, and the soldiers and horses around them are not enough, this group of people in black is indeed well-trained, and they will kill all of them in three strokes and five by two.

When this matter spread, it can be said that in the Jizhou area, the shock was not small. To put it bluntly, those who were killed were the main figures of the family, and there were about 3,000 people up and down, which is not a small number, but all of them died unexpectedly, and the murderers needless to say everyone can guess, nine times out of ten they were all done by Cao Xing's Jinyi Guard.

After all, everyone knows that the grievances of Cao Xing and the family are not a matter of one or two days, and Cao Xing can definitely do this kind of thing. And these families are all the families that supported the crusade against Cao Xing at the beginning, so the result is naturally obvious.

Immediately, the world was furious, and many people have issued crusades against Cao Xing, although there is no direct evidence, but these people still scolded Cao Xing's dog blood, saying that Cao Xing was careless about human life, saying that Cao Xing was inhumane, and for a time the voices of public opinion accused Cao Xing.

At this moment, Cao Xuan was sitting in his room, quietly looking at these letters that scolded him.

If Cao Xing has no anger in his heart, it is absolutely fake, these Confucian scolding people have their own personalities, each has their own tricks, anyway, the scolding is all over the place, Cao Xing seems to have become a heinous and unreadable person in their mouths.

Cao Xuan also admitted that he did the thing, and Cao Xuan also solicited everyone's opinions before this, and this suggestion to arrest and kill all those who instigated this war was actually put forward by this guy Fa Zheng.

The reason why Fa Zheng put forward such a plan is actually based on several reasons, first of all, Fa Zheng knows that Cao Xing is now in his hands and has neither shortage of money nor food, and secondly, the initiative of this talk, although it is in Cao Xing's hands, but Cao Xing must not go too far, that is, he cannot put forward some requirements that are beyond the scope of Yuan Shao's ability, if Yuan Shao is really provoked, this battle will continue to fight, and there will be no benefit for both sides, after all, Cao Xing's current power is still not as good as Yuan Shao, in the end, The people who were dragged down said that it was not good or Cao Xing.

In the end, Fa Zheng also made it clearer that this negotiation was a strategy to delay the army, and everyone withdrew their troops and went back to rest for a while, and when the time was ripe, the two sides would meet each other in the army.

Therefore, Fa Zheng finally came to the conclusion that the conditions proposed by Cao Xing must be unfavorable to Yuan Shao and weaken Yuan Shao's power, so Fa Zheng finally came up with the idea of pulling out all the families who incited Yuan Shao and killing them. Fa Zheng's suggestion has been recognized by many people, after all, if he does this, it will be too relieved, and Chen Hu and others unanimously support it.

However, there are still two people who oppose it, first of all, Fengyun, who is far away in Shangtang, he wrote a letter to Cao Xing, stating the pros and cons, in general, the power of the family is huge, if all the families in the world are offended to death, it will be very unfavorable to Cao Xing.

Hearing the content of this letter, Chen Hu was the first to wave his hand, and said very indifferently, Fengyun is a little scared now, he no longer has the blood he had at the beginning, what can they do if they kill those families?

Another person who opposes Cao Xing's doing this should be Jia Xu, but Jia Xu didn't make a lot of fanfare like Fengyun, like Cao Xing's pros and cons of becoming famous, he just simply said a word and thought twice.

However, Cao Xing finally adopted Fa Zheng's suggestion and made this request to Yuan Shao, and the final result was like this.

Cao Xuan summoned Fa Zheng and handed these letters to Fa Zheng's hand, Fa Zheng stared at the papers with burning eyes, and then put them down indifferently.

"Please don't be angry, do you really think that those Confucian scholars who scolded you really want to scold you!"

As soon as he heard this, Cao Xing couldn't help but squint his eyes, he did have anger in his heart, after all, he Cao Xing was not Cao Cao, and he liked to be scolded.

However, after Fa Zheng's explanation, Cao Xing's angry heart gradually became relaxed.

I was also carried away by anger just now, and when I think about it now, it seems that this is indeed the case. Those families are indeed inciting Yuan Shao and letting Yuan Shao fight Cao Xing, which has become a fact and cannot be refuted.

Therefore, Cao Xing's definition of those families is defined as war criminals, and they are there to fan the flames, so this war was triggered, and war criminals should naturally be executed.

People all over the world have guessed that those families were definitely assassinated by Cao Xing halfway, but those who scolded Cao Xing should also guess that in fact, this matter was not done by Cao Xing alone, if Yuan Shao tried his best to protect those families, Cao Xing would never be able to send Jinyi Wei to Yecheng and kill those families one by one.

So there is only one real reason, that is, Yuan Shao acquiesced to Cao Xing's suggestion and directly gathered these families into one area, and then Cao Xing ambushed them on the road they had to pass, and then killed all these families, so this matter should be done by Cao Xing and Yuan Shao together, and Yuan Shao could only do this in order to prevent Cao Xing from continuing to harass him.

Clear-eyed people can know these things by thinking about them casually, but in the end, these so-called scholars did not scold Yuan Shao, but just scolded Cao Xing there, saying that Cao Xing was unkind and unjust, and that Cao Xing was addicted to killing. It's just that no one is there to criticize Yuan Shao and Cao Xing for being in the same stream, as if they have selectively forgotten Yuan Shao.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing sneered in his heart, and the reason was not because Cao Xuan was not strong enough.
