Chapter 380, join forces with Yuan Shao
Guo Tu's face was full of worry, and he stomped his feet in a hurry, and after Yuan Shao heard it, he was also a master of the six gods, and he was anxious to turn around the house.
"How's that okay?"
Bad news followed, and it didn't take long for Dongshanwei's meticulous work to bring even more terrible news: "Lord, Zhao Yun's army has been increasing troops to Hugao Pass and Hanoi for several days, and in less than two days, the assembled troops have been no less than 100,000. β
Yuan Shaohao fainted out of breath, "Tian Feng hurt me not shallowly, how should this be?" β
To deal with Gongsun Zhan, it has reached the most critical step, seeing that there is only one step away, it is about to be done, but now, the thing that Yuan Shao least wants to face has appeared, Zhao Yun has increased his troops to the border of Jizhou by 100,000, and also occupies Yanmen Pass, once the war starts, Zhao Yun has a two-pronged approach, which is definitely enough for Yuan Shao to drink a pot, he has to immediately stop attacking Gongsun Zhan, gather people together, and discuss countermeasures.
Fu Zhi stood up decisively, "Lord, no matter what, we can't start a war with Zhao Yun at this time, we should send someone to Yanmen Pass to see Zhao Yun immediately, we must resolve this matter, and if necessary, we can promise him some benefits, as long as he can withdraw from the army, as long as his request is not excessive, we can all agree." β
Although Yuan Shao's side is full of factions, and in order to compete for power, there are often quarrels, and the quarrels are inextricable, but this time, one thing is surprisingly consistent.
Everyone knows how powerful Zhao Yun is, if he fights with Zhao Yun, everyone wants to have good fruits to eat, and it is difficult to say whether they can keep Jizhou.
Yuan Shao simply sent Fu Zhu to see Zhao Yun.
Frustrated, he didn't bring a soldier and a pawn, and rode alone to see Zhao Yun.
Hearing that Fu Zhi was coming, Zhao Yun hurriedly brought someone out to greet him, and it was the first time he and Fu Zhi met, but Zhao Yun was already familiar with the name of Fu Zhu.
His face was clear and thin, his bones were distinct, his eyes shimmered with a stern and sharp light, his thin lips were closed, and he had a slender beard under his chin.
Zhao Yun hugged his fists, "Mr. came from afar, all the way hard, Zhao Yun greeted the late, forgive the sin." β
Fu Zhi smiled faintly, "General Zhao, I didn't expect you to be so young, you are really young and promising, which is impressive." β
"Sir, pleaseβ"
Zhao Yun joined hands and took his wrist, let the frustration into the Yanmen Pass, after the guest and the host sat down, without waiting for Zhao Yun to ask, the frustration stood up, "I'm ashamed, Tian Feng didn't listen to my persuasion, and ambushed General Zhao in Liushi Town, this matter is not what we did right, fortunately, the general Ji Ren Tianxiang, safe escape, if there is really a mistake, we will make a big mistake." β
Frustrated with shame on his face, his attitude was very sincere, but as soon as his words fell, Chen Gong let out a sneer, "Brother Zhengping, I'm afraid what you said is insincere, if my lord really encounters an accident, you should have already set up a wine to celebrate, instead of thinking that it was a big mistake and feeling remorseful." β
Frustrated with a glance at Chen Gong, seeing that his expression was serious, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he secretly shook his head in his heart, this person must be difficult to deal with.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I just said, this matter is completely caused by Tian Feng's obstinate behavior and disobedience to orders without authorization, and now that he has been imprisoned, the lord will definitely not spare him, I hope you can be more considerate of this matter, you must know that Yuan Gong has no intention of being your enemy, General Zhao, this time you sent troops to Yi Jing, helped us solve our urgent needs, and drove Gongsun Zan out of Yi Jing Tower, Yuan Gong is very grateful to the general for his help, how could he order to deal with the general? This is completely Tian Feng's personal doing, and I hope that the general can take into account the overall situation and not be impulsive, once the war starts, I don't know how many people will suffer, it will not be beneficial to both of us, the general thinks twice. β
Lu Bu snorted, "Now that I know that I am afraid, what did I do earlier, you keep saying that it was Tian Feng's personal doing, and you pushed Yuan Shao's responsibility away, will anyone believe your words, did Tian Feng eat the bear's heart and leopard gall, if he dares to do this, is he not afraid of killing his head?" β
This is exactly the cleverness of Frustration, no matter what, the responsibility for Tian Feng's ambush of Zhao Yun cannot be implicated in Yuan Shao, as long as this is the case, the problem can be easily resolved.
Zhao Yun's face was lined with water, and he said coldly, "Who gave the order, I have no interest, I have killed thousands of soldiers, and I almost took my life, Mr. Fu, do you think that this is just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning?" β
Chen Gong also stood up, "That's it, did so many soldiers die in vain?" β
"If you have any requirements, just mention them, as long as they are reasonable, I will definitely show Yuan Gong when I go back."
Zhao Yun was just about to open his mouth and put forward the conditions that had been discussed in advance, Chen Gong shook his head at him, and said first, "In this way, you will compensate us for five million grains at one time, and this matter will be settled, if you don't agree, then you can only see the high and low on the battlefield, and divide the victory and defeat." β
"Five million?"
Frustrated and surprised, Zhao Yun's expression was also a little surprised, didn't he say 3.4 million yuan?
After thinking about it again, Zhao Yun suddenly woke up, just like buying something, one asks for a sky-high price, and the other sits on the ground to pay back, so you can't just show your hole cards.
At that time, there was nothing more valuable than food, and if you had food, you could live, and you could exchange food for money, but you could not necessarily buy food if you had money.
"So much?" Don't look frustrated, calm down, you won't be able to sit still.
Yuan Shao these years, the situation has always been not very optimistic, Zhao Yun and Cao Cao are in their respective territories, vigorously advocate the law of tuntian, persuade farming, encourage grain production, the problem of food shortage has been greatly alleviated, but Yuan Shao has been ignoring this matter over the years, but the battle has not been less, besides, Yuan Shao and Zhao Yun and Cao Cao's attitude towards the people is fundamentally different.
Zhao Yun attaches great importance to the people at the bottom and always puts the livelihood of the people in the first place.
Although Cao Cao is not as thorough as Zhao Yun, at least it is not bad for the people, Cao Cao selects talents in an eclectic manner, so that the status of many low-level people has been greatly improved, and it is not excluded that Cao Cao wants to suppress the status and rights and interests of the upper-class nobles.
Cao Cao's personality is complex and contradictory, on the one hand, he respects the family and aristocrats, and has attracted many celebrities and talents, on the other hand, he sympathizes with the people at the bottom, and repeatedly improves the status of the disadvantaged groups, hoping to fundamentally restrict the upper class aristocracy.
And Yuan Shao has never sympathized with the people at the bottom, he only protects the interests of the upper nobles, so Yuan Shao doesn't care at all about the livelihood of the people.
Every time there is a task of collecting grain, Yuan Shao will give an order, and the people below only know how to carry out the order, and they don't care about the life or death of the people at all, and because most of the fields in Jizhou are controlled by the upper nobles, every time there is a grain collection task, those nobles will frantically exploit the people, for example, one acre of land is levied one percent of the grain, but the people have to pay three or even forty percent of the grain.
