Chapter 275
Yan Shao's test proved at least one point, that is, the so-called rankings were not accurate. www.biquge.infoNone of the generals who can rank among the top in terms of force value can be said to be easy to deal with, including Dian Wei and Zhang Fei, of course, including the representatives of Dian Wei and Zhang Fei.
Dian Wei and Zhang Fei fought endlessly in the middle of the battlefield, but there was no way to distinguish a winner or loser, and in the end, both of them were a little exhausted, but they still stared at each other with eyes the size of copper bells, as if they were going to hack each other to death in the next secondββββββ although they no longer had the strength.
Originally, Dian Wei's reputation was not obvious, and Cao Cao didn't know where this fierce general came from. But after Dian Wei defeated Gan Ning and fought with Zhang Fei for a long time, someone had already explained Dian Wei's origin to Cao Cao. also made Cao Cao understand that this fierce general under his command turned out to be Xiahoudun's subordinate.
As I said before, Cao Cao has always been a person who loves talents, not to mention that Dian Wei is still a rare super-first-class military general under his account. Even if he is not the kind of general, it is unlikely that he will have any ability to take charge alone, and this force value alone is already quite rare.
Seeing that Zhang Fei and Dian Wei were both a little exhausted, Cao Cao was afraid that something would happen, so he hurriedly ordered Mingjin. "Call General Dian Wei back!"
"Yes!" A general next to him clenched his fists and took orders, and hurriedly called someone to Mingjin.
Over there, Dian Wei was still staring at Zhang Fei with wide eyes, and he heard the sound of Ming Jin behind him, even if he was not very willing in his heart, he could only retreatββββββ unlike Zhang Fei, Dian Wei still knew the truth of military orders, unlike Zhang Fei who only knew how to provoke Liu Bei.
At the same time, Liu Bei was also afraid that Zhang Fei would take any risks. Unlike Yan Shao or Cao Cao, there are very few people around Liu Bei who can be used, only Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are two sworn brothers, it can be said that no matter which one Liu Bei can't afford to lose, since Cao Cao has already taken the first step to mingjin, Liu Bei also took the opportunity to call someone to mingjin.
Compared with Dian Wei, Zhang Fei's performance was much worse, even Liu Bei lingered behind Ming Jin for a while, shouting and scolding Cao Jun in the formation for a long time, until he was sure that Dian Wei would indeed not come back to compete with him, and then returned to the formation.
This duel actually didn't have any effect, although Dian Wei was the first to return to the formation, but everyone knew that it was just a draw. Fortunately, no one will care about this, at least Yan Shao didn't care.
ββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββ
In any case, Cao Cao is indeed a difficult opponent to deal with, at least for this period of time, the duel between Yan Shao and Cao Cao has been maintained in a winless situation, even if there are occasional wins or two, the advantage is not particularly big.
You can imagine how much effort Yan Shao made for Xuzhou when he went south to Xuzhou this time, and what did Yan Shao do? One is that there is a relatively safe barrier in the south, and the other is for the grain promised by Tao Qian.
But now...
"Zizhong, this is not a joke, you also know that I brought Qingzhou Erlang to Xuzhou and shed a lot of blood, but now you have not said a word..." Could it be that you are sincerely playing tricks on me Qingzhou? β
"How dare we play tricks..."Mi Zhu hurriedly waved his hand, but he knew very well how much trouble it would cause if he really implemented this sentence. It's just that please forgive me, Xuzhou was indeed able to get so much food, but after Cao Cao retreated, he found that when he retreated, he actually let people empty the food and property of all the cities along the way, and now Xuzhou has suffered heavy losses, and the people in many places are hungry and cold, so they really can't take out so much food..."
"What does this have to do with us, Mi Zizhong, we went south because you agreed, and now you are so repentant, aren't you afraid of losing your trust in the world?" This time, it was none other than Sun Guan who spoke.
The other generals behind Yan Shao also shared the same hatred, after all, this was related to the interests of the Qingzhou Army, not to mention that these things were still deserved.
"Really no food?" Looking at Mi Zhu with a cold face, the friendship of the previous few days was almost certainly gone, Yan Shao asked.
"It's really no food..."Mi Zhu said helplessly.
To be reasonable, if he can, he is really unwilling to take on this task, on the one hand, because he will definitely offend people, and on the other hand, this time it was Xuzhou who broke his trust in others, and it spread, and he will become the top pot...
"Otherwise, can it be like this?" At this time, Zhao Yun next to him stood up and made a round. Cao Cao's time, Xuzhou did suffer heavy losses, and it is understandable that he couldn't get food in a hurry, so Zizhong might as well go back and discuss with Tao Fujun and send the grain to Qingzhou in batches, as long as it can be returned within a few years..."
Zhao Yun also knows a lot about the situation in Xuzhou, and he can't bear to ask for so much food from those people, just because this is what Xuzhou promised, and the loss of this time in Qingzhou is not small, there must be some gains, right?
Now that Xuzhou said that he had no choice, Zhao Yun had to find a way to play a round.
Anyway, what Yan Shao asked for was a total amount, as long as Xuzhou could deliver this amount, it would be okay for a few more years.
Hearing Zhao Yun's solution, Li Ru's eyes moved. Yan Shao next to him also glanced at him with some surprise, as if he didn't expect Zhao Yun to come up with such an idea.
But...
That's probably the most likely idea right now...
"It's okay, if you can deliver this batch of grain within three years, it's okay..."Yan Shao didn't want to look like he was unkind, and if Xuzhou really couldn't get so much food, it would be useless to force the other party to death, so it would be better to relax it, and the right should be a loan.
Naturally, there is definitely a need for interest on loans, so...
"But since it's repaid in batches, then there must be some interest, what does Zizhong think?"
In this regard, Yan Shao really doesn't plan to regress.
However, after listening to Yan Shao and Zhao Yun's words, Mi Zhu smiled bitterly. Maybe Yan Shao and Zhao Yun really thought that Xuzhou couldn't get food, but in fact, Mi Zhu knew very well that the real situation was that Xuzhou was unwilling to take out so much food at all...
In the eyes of some people, since Cao Cao has been driven away, and it was Lu Bu who personally took action, then Cao Cao's threat is no longer so urgent, and there is no need for them to fulfill the unequal treaty signed with Yan Shao as a last resort, that is, the grain that Yan Shao extorted at the beginning.
This is not surprising, no matter where there will be some short-sighted people, even Tao Qian is the same, after all, so much grain is such a rich place in Xuzhou, and it will make people feel distressed to take it out in a hurry.
During this period, Mi Zhu and Chen Deng also advised that they should fulfill their obligations, on the one hand, for the sake of faith. In one place, you can't have a bad relationship with Qingzhou, lest something go wrong in the future, and you won't even have anyone to help. What's more, Cao Cao's threat is indeed gone in a short period of time, but who guarantees that the Qingzhou Army will not become the next Cao Cao?
The most troublesome thing is that if something really happens again this time...
There's really no one who will come to help...
Mi Zhu and Chen Deng persuaded hard, they didn't want to be taken seriously by Tao Qian and them at all, and they also had their own reasons.
The Qingzhou army is entangled with Yuan Shao, even if he leads the troops south to help this time, Yan Shao does not bring too many soldiers and horses down, even if it is a very obvious evidence.
Therefore, there is no need to take the threat of the Qingzhou Army to heart at all, let alone worry that the Qingzhou Army will come to the door.
And...
I don't know who gave Tao Qian a rather poisonous strategy, that is, to let Mi Zhu negotiate this matter with Yan Shao, and that person gave Tao Qian a good reason.
During Yan Shao's stay in Xuzhou during this time, the Mi family had a close relationship with Yan Shao. Who dares to guarantee that if the Qingzhou Army goes south in the future, the Mi family will not be the leading party?
It is better to take this opportunity to destroy the relationship between the Mi family and Yan Shao, so that there is no need to worry about what happens in Xuzhou.
Not to mention how bad this idea is, at least it is still very much in line with Tao Qian's wishes, so he decisively sent Mi Zhu to negotiate with Yan Shao, which is also a reason why Mi Zhu's expression has always been ugly since then.
Uh-huh, I'm sorry, I'll make up for it right away.
