Yu Yunwen made a promise to Tao Qian, and after the surprise attack on Shouchun, Qingxu and Xu formed an alliance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the strength of the two states is also weak, Qingzhou has elite soldiers and strong generals, Xuzhou has sufficient resources, and Xuzhou's soldiers are called Danyang soldiers, Danyang mountain is dangerous, the people are fruitful, good martial arts, noble strength, and the land of elite soldiers.
That is to say, this place in Danyang is a place where elite soldiers are produced, Tao Qian is a Danyang person, he has always had elite Danyang soldiers in his hands, and later Liu Bei fought thousands of miles, and it was this Danyang soldier who followed him, but because Xuzhou was not led by a general, he could not reflect his strength.
If the two states are really united and complement each other, then the strength is not as simple as one plus one equals two. If Zhao Kuangyin really covets Xuzhou, he will have to weigh it.
Tao Qian was overjoyed and said: "Don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you in the matter of borrowing the Tao, and after the matter is completed, you and I will form an alliance with Qingxu to resist the enemy."
"Thank you so much, sir!" Yu Yunwen gave Tao Qian a big salute.
Qingxu formed an alliance, Tao Qian's red face seemed to be a lot better, looked at Mi Zhu and said: "Zizhong, I am sick in bed, you treat Mr. well for me, don't be lazy."
"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely entertain a good gentleman, you have a good rest, I will retire first." Mi Zhu arched his hand.
"Go down?" Tao Qian waved his hand, lay back on the bed, Mi Zhu took Yu Yunwen out of the Assassin's Mansion, and asked Yu Yunwen: "Sir, do you really want to attack Yuan Shu through Xuzhou?"
Yu Yunwen nodded and said: "This is Your Majesty's will, Yuan Shu usurped the emperor, although Your Majesty dragged Yuan Shu's army in Runan, and Sun Zhao was the main force attacking Yuan Shu, but Your Majesty didn't want to kill Yuan Shu personally?" So let me Qingzhou surprise attack Shouchun, take Yuan Shu's head and sacrifice it before the holy case. ”
"It turned out to be His Majesty's will!" Mi Zhu suddenly realized, and immediately said: "Sir, rest assured, I will deal with this matter in Xuzhou, and I will never let an accident happen to the borrowing of the road."
"Thank you so much, only you and me, as well as Lord Tao Qian, know about this matter, as long as it doesn't leak out. In particular, Zhao Guangyi and Xi Zhicai can't be noticed, otherwise there will be complications! Yu Yunwen reminded.
"I can save it, I will definitely resist them, by the way, sir, Thorn Shi asked me to entertain you well, you see that you are here, and I have never drunk a sip of tea, why don't you go to my house and stay for a few days, let me do my best as a landlord?" Mi Zhu pleaded.
Yu Yunwen shook his head and refused: "No, my visit is confidential, if I go to your house as a guest, Xi Zhicai will definitely find out, so I won't stay long, and I will return to Qingzhou later." You treat Zhao Kuangyin as before, don't be courteous, don't be too cold, just stabilize them for the time being. ”
"Sir, rest assured!" Mi Zhu nodded and reassured, Yu Yunwen declined Mi Zhu's request to send him and left.
After Yu Yunwen returned to the inn, he found a leader of Jinyiwei and instructed: "Once there is any change in Xuzhou, notify me immediately, and Xi Zhicai should not provoke him, lest he do anything to my Jinyiwei."
"Xi Zhicai is just a sick seedling, what's so terrible? Why don't you send a killer to kill him, so as not to spoil our big deal? ”
"Kill him?" Yu Yunwen waved his hand and said, "Kill him?" Zhao Kuangyin's chief strategist died in Xuzhou, isn't this an excuse for him to send troops to Xuzhou? Although this person is terminally ill, I look at his file, and he should not be underestimated, his mind is not under your command, and I am not in Qingzhou, you can't fight him. Do not provoke him, lest he follow the vine and learn of our plan. ”
"It's my lord!"
"I'm going to return to Qingzhou immediately, I'm afraid that Xi Zhicai will investigate here soon, and all your forces will be hidden!" Yu Yunwen advised, then left Xiapi with a few of his subordinates and returned to Qingzhou.
Outside the city of Xiapi, in the middle of a beautiful mountain forest, in front of which is a small lake, a pavilion is built next to the lake, and a withered man is fishing in the pavilion.
A young man stepped forward and said, "Strategist, according to the report from the spies, a merchant asked to see Mi Zhu this morning, and then Mi Zhu hurriedly took him to see Tao Qian, and when this person went to see Tao Qian, he also pretended to be Mi Zhu's little servant."
Xi Zhicai slowly opened his eyes and asked, "What's this person's name?"
"I don't know, this person didn't bow down!"
"There is no bowing sticker, then it is not so simple to see Mi Zhu, he asked to see Mi Zhu must have said something, can you get what the person said from the mouth?" Xi Zhicai asked.
The subordinate arched his hand and said: "I bought the villain, and the person who said that he wanted to see Mi Zhu said: There is a major event related to the rise and fall of the Mi family and Xuzhou to see Mi Zhu!"
Then Mi Zhu met him and took him to see Tao Qian? How did Tao Qian react? And where is that man now? Xi Zhicai asked.
"The subordinates in Tao Mansion said that Tao Qian looked good today, and he seemed very happy, and he ate more for lunch today. And the person who saw Tao Qian has now left Xiapi and gone north. ”
Xi Zhicai closed his eyes tightly and whispered, "What about Jinyiwei?" Has this person ever been in contact with the Jinyi Guard in Xiapi? ”
"When I investigated this person, he had already left Xiapi, so I don't know what he did in Xuzhou. As for Jinyiwei, everything is still normal, and there is no change. ”
"Such a cautious person, he came to Xiapi and didn't know it, but what did he do?" Xi Zhicai couldn't help but be a little troubled by Yu Yunwen's caution. It is also thanks to Yu Yunwen's caution, he used the power of Jinyiwei to figure out the situation before he came to Xiapi, and beware of Xi Zhicai's investigation in advance, and everything was done without leakage.
And it wasn't until the people of Xi Zhicai noticed Yu Yunwen that Yu Yunwen also left Xiapi, and there was nothing that could investigate his identity. And if you want to know the purpose of Yu Yunwen's coming to Xuzhou, you can only start from Tao Qian and Mi Zhu.
Xi Zhicai muttered: "I hope he won't have any damage to my plan, Mi Zhu doesn't cooperate with me, and I also secretly co-opt others." Where is the second general now? Let him go to Mi's house to try Mi Zhu's tone and see what Mi Zhu's attitude is towards him? ”
"Second general......" Xi Zhicai's subordinates wanted to speak and stopped.
"Say, what is he doing?"
"The second general has often dealt with Xuzhou officials these days, and he is so uncomfortable every day." The subordinate gritted his teeth.
Xi Zhicai's face sank and he muttered: "Hey, the lord and the second general are both heroes in the world, and the second general is unwilling to be subservient, and now he is already cultivating his own henchmen, and I don't know whether it is right or wrong to bring him to Xuzhou."
"My lord, what should I do about this?"
Xi Zhicai shook his head and said, "After I go to Yanzhou, I will inform the lord of this matter, you don't care." You go to the second general and ask him to go to Mi's house to try Mi Zhu's tone. ”
"No!" Xi Zhicai's subordinates retreated, and Xi Zhicai lay in the pavilion but kept coughing: "I don't have much time, so let me take Xuzhou for you in this last day."
Besides, Yu Yunwen, after returning to Qingzhou, told Kong Rong about the success of the way, and Kong Rong was overjoyed and only asked Chen Qingzhi to step up his training time and tilt his resources towards the white-robed army. Yu Yunwen did not tell Kong Rong about the marriage, but wrote a letter, telling Liu Wei about the causes and consequences of his claim for marriage.
After all, the protagonist of the marriage is Liu Wei, if he doesn't say it, even if Liu Wei agrees in the future, it will not be good for his political career. Time passed in a flash, and around November and a half, Liu Wei also received a letter from Yu Yunwen.
This matter is very important, Liu Wei asked Wang Meng to discuss, Liu argued: "I advocate that the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou should attack Shouchun when Yuan Shu is about to be defeated. When he came, he asked Yu Yunwen to go to Xuzhou to borrow the way, and now he has succeeded in borrowing the way. ”
Liu Wei also mentioned the surprise attack on Shouchun to Wang Meng, although Wang Meng felt that it was risky, he could give it a try, so he didn't stop it. After listening to Liu Wei's words, Wang Meng smiled and said: "Since the borrowing is successful, it seems that General Chen has made meritorious contributions."
"It's just that Yu Yunwen made a trip to Xuzhou, and he found one thing...... Liu Wei told Wang Meng about Zhao Guangyi's plans in Xuzhou.
Wang Meng said with a solemn face: "This Zhao Kuangyin is not a general, after Your Majesty destroyed Yuan Shu, he will have to rest for at least two or three years, if Zhao Kuangyin can really take Xuzhou without blood, then his territory will be expanded to Sanzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, it can be said that the Central Plains are in his hands." Lord Yu, how did he do it? ”
"Yunwen bought Mi Zhu, he first cut and then played to buy Mi Zhu on the condition that I accept Mi Zhen as a concubine." Liu Wei said in a deep voice.
"This matter is urgent, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame Duke Yu, if it is Weichen, it will also do this." Wang Meng hurriedly pleaded.
"Do you think it's possible?" Liu Wei asked.
"This ...... Mi Zhen is rumored to be beautiful and fragrant, and she is virtuous and virtuous, so it shouldn't be a problem to be Your Majesty's concubine. Of course, it depends on whether His Majesty looks down on her. Wang Meng arched his hand.
Liu Wei's forehead was full of black lines, and he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you know what I don't mean, you don't have to say good things for Yunwen." Although he made his own decisions, but the matter was urgent, and it was for the sake of borrowing the Tao, I would not blame him. What I mean is that if I marry Mi Zhen, can I stop Zhao Kuangyin from taking Xuzhou? ”
Mi Zhu can be moved by Yu Gong's words, which means that Mi Zhu does not want to take refuge in Zhao Kuangyin, so Xi Zhi will definitely make second-hand plans, such as buying other people in Xuzhou. The marriage between His Majesty and the Mi family has no obstacle for Zhao Kuangyin to take Xuzhou, but at the moment, Tao Qian is still there, and Yu Gong uses the marriage to win over Mi Zhu, which can play a great role in the surprise attack on Shouchun. Wang Meng explained.
Liu Wei nodded and said, "Since it has an effect on the surprise attack on Shouchun, then I will agree!" You wrote a letter to Yu Yunwen for me, first, I promised to marry, second, try to sabotage Zhao Kuangyin's plan to take Xuzhou, and third, everything is based on the task of attacking Shouchun, if the former can't be done, it should be the latter! ”
Wang Meng frowned and said, "Why did Your Majesty take down Yuan Shu personally? In fact, Yuan Shu destroyed His Majesty, but he could let Sun and Zhao offer his head. ”
Liu Wei shook his head, his eyes full of determination: "I will personally destroy Yuan Shu!"
Liu Wei is also bitter at this time, he can't say it, he must complete the task of destroying Yuan Shu within a year, he doesn't want a beauty, it's just that compared to the fierce generals who work for him under his subordinates, and the beauties who have never met, he still tends to the former.
Wang Meng sighed and stepped back, and went to write to Yu Yunwen, although he didn't know why Liu Wei wanted to destroy Yuan Shu in one fell swoop. But as a courtier, you don't need to ask more, you should worry about the king. Therefore, Wang Meng also racked his brains, and said some of his thoughts and strategies in the letter and sent them to Yu Yunwen, hoping that the marriage, the destruction of Yuan, and the destruction of Zhao Kuangyin's Xuzhou can be done well.
