Chapter 323: I had to accept it
Yecheng, Yuan Shao listened to Feng Ji's slander after coming back, and killed Tian Feng who was imprisoned in prison as soon as possible. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Soon after, Cao Cao's victorious march caused panic in the Yuan army, and many people were fighting the idea of surrendering, which made Yuan Shao even more worried.
However, this matter was opposed by the strategist Xin Ping, because Xin Ping felt that cooperating with Liu He was tantamount to conspiring with the tiger, and it was estimated that Cao Cao would be driven away by then, and Liu He would also occupy Jizhou.
However, Feng Ji said loudly: "Otherwise, we didn't really let Liu He send troops, but just a plan to kill people with a knife, and let Liu He come forward to kill soldiers for us, do you remember what happened in Xuzhou?" When Yuan Shu wanted to attack Liu Bei, Liu Bei asked Lu Bu for help, Lu Bu called Liu Bei and Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling together to kill soldiers for them, Lu Bu played a trick of shooting halberds at that time, convinced Ji Ling, and successfully quelled the war for them, so this time we also asked Liu He to mediate for us, I believe that Cao Cao will definitely give Liu He this face, if not, even Liu He is estimated to fight with Cao Cao for the sake of face, and as long as we have Liu He joining, are we still afraid that we can't beat Cao Cao? ”
"It's a good plan to kill people with a knife, then it's decided, I will immediately send someone to Chang'an to ask Liu He for help, but Chang'an is more than a thousand miles away from us, and it will take a month to go back and forth, and I don't know if we can hold on until then?" Yuan Shao sighed, his face full of worry.
However, unexpectedly, Feng Ji said: "So that the lord knows that Liu He is now inspecting the party, and if our envoy takes a fast horse, it will only take two days at most to arrive." ”
At this time, he saw the judge and said loudly: "My lord, please think about it, why did this Liu He want to go to the party at this time?" Obviously, it was to wait for us there, so the lower officials decided that there must be a conspiracy here, and we should not fall for Liu He's evil, otherwise we would have driven away the jackals and attracted the tigers. ”
Feng Ji's face changed suddenly, and he said lightly: "Hmph, Zhenzhengnan, what you said is a bit too much, right?" Didn't I say it, Liu He promised us that he would never do anything to us, is he still keeping that promise until now? Otherwise, once he takes advantage of the time when we and Cao Cao are engaged and leads his army to attack us from Heyouzhou and Bingzhou, can we still talk like this here today? This is enough to prove that the other party has no intention of scheming against us at all, so you can rest assured that as long as we ask for good words, the other party will definitely agree to help us solve the trouble. How else would you be? Do you want to surrender to Cao Cao, or sit back and wait for destruction? ”
Yuan Shao heard this, but he agreed very much, and said to Feng Ji: "Yuan Tu said very reasonably, I was instigated by Tian Feng and Fu Zhi two villains in the past, and I blamed the good people, and now I feel deep remorse when I think about it, this time I will ask Yuan Tu to work hard and apologize to Liu and Brother Xian on my behalf, and the two of us will cooperate to resist Cao Cao!" ”
After Feng Ji got the order, he immediately set off to Shangdang and met Liu He.
However, I didn't expect Liu He to change color after getting the news: "Yuan Tu, I read that you are my Nanyang people, and I have always treated you differently from others, but I didn't expect you to be like this, it's really disappointing, in fact, as Yuan Benchu's strategist, even if I don't say it, you should know that Yuan Benchu is a person who is wide on the outside and jealous on the inside, and he doesn't even have the most basic trust in people, if I had the heart to seize Jizhou, I wouldn't have helped him quell the rebellion at the beginning, and directly hijacked the families of the civil and military forces and the generals to induce them to surrender, and this Jizhou may have already belonged to me." But what can it be? Yuan Benchu was still suspicious of me? Even the promised helper Koji Yi has to be secretly removed, and then blame me, what trust do you say such a person can have? Now I've helped him, and maybe he'll turn against me in the future, so please forgive me, I can't help with this favor. ”
"This, this, the general should not do so much, in fact, the reason why the lord was like this was that he was deceived by the two villains Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, and now the lord has killed Tian Feng and expelled Fu Zhu, no one will say anything unfavorable to the general anymore, please believe in our sincerity, as long as you are willing to help with this, we will not forget your kindness."
"Hey, empty gloves white wolf? It's up to you to think of such a thing, so let's do it, if you really have sincerity, give me Zhongshan Kingdom, I am not uncommon to your territory, my territory is much larger than yours, but I just want to see your sincerity. Liu He naturally won't miss the good opportunity to knock on the bamboo, and said loudly.
"This, this, the subordinate does not dare to make decisions on this matter, please wait a few days for the general, wait for me to discuss it with the lord, and then give the general an answer." Feng Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly said goodbye to Liu He.
However, after this temptation, Feng Ji thought that Liu He had no ambition to annex Jizhou, otherwise he would not just propose a Zhongshan country.
"It must be because Zhongshan Kingdom is the home of his concubine Zhen, and he wants to take home the garden for his woman, so he put forward the rude request to ask for Zhongshan Kingdom, but even if it is rude, it is much better than the entire Jizhou being captured, right? As for how to choose, I don't have to worry about it, let the lord have a headache. ”
Although Feng Ji is loyal to Yuan Shao, he can also see that even if the current Yuan Shao barely survives Cao Cao this time, it is impossible to continue to expand the territory and develop this foundation in the future, the future overlord of the Central Plains, either Liu He or Cao Cao, he has lost confidence in Yuan Shao now, looking at the grace of many years of knowledge, he can help him survive this time, and try his best to help him keep this foundation, it is already considered benevolent and righteous, as for the future ending, there is no need to think about it now, Anyway, he won't die in vain, as long as he repays Yuan Shao's kindness, no one can accuse himself of not being moral enough.
And the result was as Feng Ji expected, when he said that Liu He put forward an unreasonable demand to occupy Zhongshan Kingdom, Yuan Shao was angry at first, and then under the persuasion of everyone, he had to accept Liu He's conditions, and agreed that Liu He would send someone to take over Zhongshan Kingdom three days later.
