Chapter 21: The Situation

Qingzhou, in the Thorn History Mansion, Yuan Tan held a wooden tablet, clenched it tightly with both hands, and the knuckles of his fingers were already white, threw the wooden tablet on the ground fiercely, and scolded:

"Villain!! Villain!! I am the eldest son of the Yuan family. I should be the son of the world, and any edict is fake, fake!! ”

Guo Tu and the others who were standing on the side had gloomy faces. looked at Yuan Tan with trepidation. He hesitated for a moment and said:

Childe was angry. It is a well-known fact that the lord loved the third prince in front of him, and now, the lord died in Jizhou, and they first issued an edict to the world, and the wood has been completed. We can only agree! ”

"Agree with a fart, I'm the eldest son, since they don't give it, what if I go and grab it!! I have an army of 100,000 in Qingzhou. The deer died by whose hand. Maybe!! ”

As soon as everyone heard Yuan Tan say this, they immediately knelt on the ground and bowed.

"Son, no, now that the facts are there, there is no point in fighting, and now that the lord is gone, Cao Cao is eyeing us. At this time, you can't be rash, think twice!! ”

Guo Tu hurriedly spoke, although they have always supported Yuan Tan and want to unify the Yuan family's forces, but they can see the situation clearly, the current enemy is Cao Cao, once there is civil strife, it must be Cao Cao who will benefit.

Yuan Tan took a deep breath and sat down.

"Guo Tu, stay behind, you guys go!"

Everyone retreated, leaving only Yuan Tan, Guo Tu, and Fu Zhi.

"Mr. Gongze, now our great enemy is Cao Cao, but after Cao Cao retired, now Yuan Shang has inherited his father's title and military power. My eldest brother is a thorn in his eye and a thorn in his flesh. Sooner or later, he's going to do something to us, we can't just sit and die, can we?! Two gentlemen. ”

The two of them looked at each other. Frustrated, he said:

"What Gongzi said is very true, I have also talked about this matter with Master Guo Tu, and now Cao Cao has sent Xu Chu to lead troops to attack, this may be an opportunity."

A cold light flashed in Yuan Tan's eyes.

"Sir, please elaborate !!"

"We can wait for Xu Chu to come, ask him for peace, give him food, grass and weapons, and even send troops to help. Capture Jizhou together, we don't want anything, just ask Qingzhou to belong to us, Jizhou to give them is, Xu Chu is a person, brave and strategic, such generals often make meritorious contributions. So he will answer. ”

Yuan Tan frowned and thought for a moment. Opening:

"We helped him capture Jizhou, and after that happened, they turned their faces and came to beat us, what should we do?!"

Guo Tu took over the topic with a smile on the side.

"Don't worry, Gongzi, of course we won't really help him capture Jizhou, what he said is just a rhetoric to Xu Chu, we will cooperate with him and fight Jizhou together, and then, we can directly turn around and destroy Xu Chu. We have just cooperated to conquer Jizhou, and they will certainly not be too wary of us. That way, the odds are greater! In this way, you can not only recapture everything that belongs to the childe, but also solve the invading enemy, killing two birds with one stone! ”

"And we must go to Xu Chu before we judge them, I believe that they are also thinking about this at this time. We're going to finish all of this before Cao Cao's army arrives. Otherwise, once Xu Chu and Cao Cao's army will join together, it will be a big deal! ”

He said solemnly.

The trio talked all the time. Until the sun goes down and the night comes...

Xu Du, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao took the information sent. A cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Come on, call Xun Yu!!"

Not much. Xun Yu came to the main hall. Bend down.

"See Prime Minister."

"Xun Yu, look at this."

Cao Cao gave the information in his hand to Xun Yu, Xun Yu took it and frowned slightly.

"Xun Yu, I thought that Yuan Tan would sit in Yuan Shao's seat with the support of most people, so I arranged for Xu Chu. Unexpectedly, now Yuan Shang is Yuan Shao's successor, and he is a clever one. There will be a fight between their brothers, so I arranged for Xu Chu to go before. Do you think what to do now, whether to go or not to go?! ”

Xun Yu closed the wooden tablet and arched his hand:

"The prime minister should send Xu Chu to go, and he should go as fast as possible, and now is the time when their contradictions are the most acute, and the prime minister's previous arrangement will definitely play a greater role!"

Cao Cao's eyes closed slightly and nodded.

"Hmmm! Got it, go ahead, call Cheng Yu! ”

Xun Yu slowly retreated, and soon Cheng Yu came, and Cao Cao asked the same question. Cheng Yu thought for a moment.

"The prime minister should send Xu Chu to go, but he should go slowly and with great fanfare, so that they know that our army is coming menacingly. But it was a long time coming. They know that our army is overwhelmed. There are two options, one of which is to join forces. Unanimously dealing with us, this may seem unlikely, in the current situation, and the second is that they will move quickly to solve the matter before we arrive. Then deal with us, so we have to go slowly, and the more stressful it is, the more anxious they are. ”

Cao Cao nodded.

"Good! Go and call Guo Jialai!! ”

Cheng Yu exited the lobby and came to the hall, where he found Xun Yu and Guo Jia both there, and the two looked at him with a smile. Cheng Yu looked at Guo Jia.

"The prime minister told you to go."

When Guo Jia came to the lobby, Cao Cao had already gotten up and was wiping his saber with his sword. Meet Guo Jialai. Similarly, he took the wooden tablet to Guo Jia and said the question just now.

"Prime Minister Qiqi, I thought we couldn't move troops, once we were in a hurry, they would unite again, although they have great contradictions now, but when life and death are at stake, no matter how big the contradictions will be thrown away, as long as we don't move, they will definitely fight, so that we can easily take them down!!"

After Guo Jia finished speaking, he saw Cao Cao sitting down and thinking with his eyes closed, so he silently retreated, came to the hall, and saw that Xun Yu and Cheng Yu were still there, and it seemed that they were waiting for him. Xun Yu spoke first:

"How about the two of you, what did the prime minister say to you?!"

Guo Jia and Cheng Yu didn't speak, just smiled and looked at themselves. Xun Yu was stunned. Suddenly laughed.

"Good. Let's talk about it together!! ”

The three of them expressed their opinions at the same time, and Guo Jia touched the beard on his chin.

"Now we have given all three plans to the prime minister, how to choose, it depends on the prime minister's own decision!!"

The three of them looked at the location of the lobby at the same time, and in the lobby, Cao Cao opened his eyes...
