Chapter 988: A Shattered Think Tank
"Sometimes it's not because of the best policy that you agree, Gongtai." Although Hu Zhao belongs to the sect of education, it does not mean that he cannot see the sinister hearts of people!
Chen Gong rolled his eyes, he knew these things better than Hu Zhao, but he didn't understand why the people who judged and Xun Chen didn't stop them, you must know that those people are all real celebrities in the world, and it is impossible not to know what to do.
As Chen Gong guessed, it was not because of the sinister problems of people's hearts, but because of the choice that Yuan Tan had to make in order to maintain the stability of the Yuan family.
In history, Yuan Tan assisted Yuan Shao to take Qingzhou, so he was named the history of Qingzhou Thorn, and in this life, Qingzhou fell into the hands of Liu Bei, Yuan Tan assisted Yuan Shao to take Youzhou, and naturally Yuan Tan became the history of Youzhou Thorn.
Yuan Shao felt that he was a hero at that time, and his eldest son Yuan Tan did have some ability, and his nephew Gao Gan was really good, plus Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were still young, so Yuan Shao gave Gao Gan as the assassin of Bingzhou, after all, his own people used to rest assured, not asking them to show much, just that family affection and loyalty.
There is no shortage of capable people Yuan Shao, but there are only a few people who can really make Yuan Shao completely open his mind and rest assured, so it can be said that Gao Gan and Yuan Tan each control the land of a state.
After starting Youzhou, Yuan Tan was naturally working hard to grow, taking Youzhou as the foundation, preparing for his future inheritance of the family business, but now the situation has become like this, after Yuan Tan stabilized, the best strategy is actually to give up Youzhou, shrink the defense line, consolidate the state and Jizhou, defend with all his might, and increase the depth of the defense line.
Although this can only be said to be a survival under the huge difference in strength, it is better than dying.
It's a pity that Youzhou is basically Yuan Tan's base camp. It is to abandon the base camp and choose the best policy, and take the merger of states as their foundation in the future. Or desperately gather troops and consolidate Youzhou. Giving up and merging most of the state, with a strong force to make Liu Bei unable to invade Youzhou, these two ways Yuan Tan basically chose the second one without much thought.
The first approach, and the state is the territory of the high-level cadres, Yuan Tan is really not sure if his cousin can fully support him, after all, after losing Youzhou, Yuan Tan's foundation has already had problems, although there is a trial, Xu You. Chun Yuqiong, Jiang Yiqu and others gave their full support, but Yuan Tan really couldn't guarantee that Gao Gan would not rise up and think carefully.
The second approach, although it looks very dangerous, but in Yuan Tanzhong's view, giving up part of the annexation to Cao Cao not only has an offensive and defensive alliance, but also weakens the strength of Gao Gan, and consolidates his position. With one plus and one subtraction, the power of the Yuan family's core was basically successfully grasped in his own hands.
It can be said that Yuan Tan's approach is not too wrong, but he does not understand Liu Bei's true strength, and thinks that Liu Bei is unable to move forward because he is unable to forge ahead.
As for the trial and matching, although they also feel that Yuan Tan's approach is not the best choice. But it was quite good, and this was Yuan Tan's first order, so Xu You and the others hesitated and accepted it.
Although they lost the battle of Yuan and Liu. But in their eyes, the loss of that battle was really unjust, whether it was Yuan Shaojun or Liu Beijun's combat effectiveness, in their eyes, it was actually equal. Although Liu Bei is strong, he is only half a catty and eight taels. As for the wisdom of the mind, they did not lose in the battle of Yuan and Liu in wisdom!
Of course, the above is just a trial, Xu You and the others' own judgment, they are now some authorities are confused, and they can't see the situation clearly, but then again, Li Youquan opened his household registration and pulled out all of Yuan Shao's spies, and then carried out an intelligence blockade, Yuan Tan's side couldn't get any useful information at all, so naturally they could only judge by the battlefield situation.
In fact, these are all that, now the biggest loss of Yuan Tan's side is Zhang He and Gao Lan, the remaining two of the Hebei Fourth Court after coming back, not only did not get appeased, but were also idle, and even Yuan Tan planned to send Zhang He Gao Ran to the north of Bingzhou to defend Xianbei after the completion of the merger.
This is naturally not because Yuan Tan attaches great importance to Xianbei people, but in fact, it is completely dissatisfied with Zhang He and Gao Ran.
Wen Chou swore to die and never forgot his loyalty, and Zhang He Gaolan retreated alone regardless of the lord, resulting in Yuan Shao's death, which was absolutely unbearable in Yuan Tan's opinion; With tens of thousands of troops in hand, Yu Yecheng abandoned the city and fled, and he didn't even bring out the treasure Xuanyuan Tianding, which made Yuan Tan extremely disgusted with the two!
Although Xu You, Xianping, Xun Chen and others knew that there were too many hidden secrets, they could only choose to remain silent when Yuan Tan first ascended the throne, and in their opinion, Zhang He Gaolan was idle for a period of time and let Yuan Tan hand over smoothly.
As for the future, it is basically only a matter of time before they appear on the battlefield again as a famous general in Hebei, so they unanimously chose to wronged Zhang He and Gao Ran.
In other words, this is the disadvantage of losing Tian Feng and Frustration, although the judge, Xun Chen, Xu You and others are also resourceful people, but they are far from the outspoken momentum of Tian Feng and Frustration in temperament.
If Tian Feng was still here, Yuan Tan's behavior would definitely be rejected by these two guys, and it was the most important thing to do now, but when the judges and others examined the measurements, and finally hesitated, they still passed Yuan Tan's order.
Without those two people taking the lead, these people didn't dare to stand Yuan Tan, you must know that Tian Feng was there before, and this group of people would say a few words if they felt reasonable, anyway, there were those who took the blame, and the soft points of their own words, Yuan Shao must remember himself if he passed, and if he didn't pass, Tian Feng must continue to be just right, just arrived......
As for now, Xun Chen and the others can only look at me and me, I can look at you, they don't want to take the blame, everyone is smart and doesn't want to be remembered, so they didn't speak, so after the established facts appeared, they only had one choice left by default.
Chen Gong didn't know these things, to be precise, Chen Gong hadn't had in-depth contact with Tian Feng, and there was no need to unlock his spiritual talent for a little thing, so he couldn't understand the attitude of the current trial and the others.
"But this matter has nothing to do with us, and we just need to do our own thing." Chen Gong said casually, "Although I can't get used to Cao Cao, I won't deliberately discredit him in this matter, if I can, he will do better than Yuan Benchu." ”
"There is no need for them to send troops, nor do they need to worry about the people in the north, as long as they provide grain and grass, Cao Cao has nothing to discount in this regard." Zang Hong pursed his lips and said, he couldn't look at Cao Cao, but he also recognized Chen Gong's words.
"I also second." Hu Zhao nodded, he used to think that Cao Cao was good, but since the attack on Xuzhou, Hu Zhao has no good impression of Cao Cao, but he also admits that within Cao Cao's ability, he will do better. (To be continued......)
