Cao Cao's gift is not heavy, but it is really hot to put away. Qin Xu could almost expect that after Boss Cao communicated with the Wei family and the Zhen family with great interest, he suddenly found that he was embarrassed after being taken out of the kettle and being busy. He was not angry and immediately sent troops to attack, which was already considered to be his old Cao's cultivation, but now he is still giving such a heavy gift, if you want to say that there is no backhand, just for simple congratulations, you can't believe it if you are killed.

The situation in Hebei is now also a triumphant. Whether it is Gongsun and Liu Bei's forces who are guarding the entire territory of Youzhou and relying on the cavalry to condescendingly peek at the Hebei Union, or Yuan Tan, who has taken over the annexation of the state and covets the two states of Hebei and Youzhou, or Yuan Xi, who is supported by the Yuan family's subordinates to resist the annexation. It can be said that by taking advantage of their respective advantages and disadvantages, the three parties have their own plans but scruples about each other, and have reached a delicate balance. Even because of Yuan Shao's violent death, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi attacked each other, but under the persuasion of their respective subordinates, they maintained considerable restraint and did not give Gongsun and Liu Bei's forces a chance to take advantage of it. In terms of Youzhou, Gongsun Chan has not looked at things for a long time for some reason, and all the military and political power has fallen into the hands of Liu Bei's brothers, if it weren't for the fact that Gongsun Chan can be seen from time to time in the Saizhong of Yijing City, I am afraid that it would have been thought that this white horse general has been killed by Liu's brothers, but even so, the Youzhou actually ruled by Liu Bei also has a lot of hidden dangers, not to mention the border army subordinate to Gongsun's forces, and the fundamental responsibility of resisting the foreign clans who are ready to move.

Fear each other, no one is willing to risk their own death to start a big war, and the consequence of this is that the war is scorching!

Hebei has been operated by Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan for many years, and the confrontation between the three is in danger. The resistance to foreign forces can be said to be unprecedented, and no one can believe that the forces that have vowed to help themselves will be the back-up found by other forces. You want to break through your defenses from within. Therefore, if you want to intervene in the situation in Hebei, you can only rely on the help of forces other than these three forces. The Zhen family, which has money, food, iron, and horses, is undoubtedly the best choice.

Even if the Central Plains forces have been in war for many years and have been hit by a great drought that has not been encountered in a century, they have no choice but to stop fighting and stop fighting. Recuperate. But this does not mean that you can borrow the hands of others to mix and mix with Hebei. Just like Zhen Jian's recent series of actions, it can be seen that even within the three states of Hebei, there are actually three parties who are not optimistic. The intention is to find the existence of another person who knows the Lord.

For example, Yuan Shang's mother and son who were driven out of Jizhou by their two brothers! Didn't he originally want to persuade Lu Bu to borrow troops, but now the idea has hit the Zhen family again!

Speaking of which, Yuan Shang did shine this time, which was unexpected by the old poison Jia Xu! What a skill! And he gave these many gifts, but he didn't mention the matter of borrowing troops to recover Jizhou, which really made Qin Xu miscalculate.

What made Qin Xu even more puzzled was that. This kid's gift list is huge. It is the most comer, but where did you come up with so much grain and grass and military resources? Can you still carry it with you? And even if there is, it is impossible for Yuan Shang to be so stupid to that extent, and suddenly "change" in Qingzhou, right? Isn't that just to tell Qin Xu that his Yuan family's junior has the ability to make so many military armors on the ground in Qingzhou? No matter how confused Yuan Shang is, the two powers behind him will not know that this is for someone Qin who has just experienced the Linzi Rebellion planned by Kong Rong, and is still a little nervous. How exciting, right? No one is stupid, such a thing as hitting the muzzle of a gun. A normal person would never do it.

Of course, Yuan Shang will not be able to. When Qin Xu "sent" Yuan Shang to the Black Mountain thieves at the Yecheng City Gate, this kid still looked scared, but he was able to stay in the thieves' den for two months. Although I don't know how the junior of the Yuan family came over these two months, one thing that can be known is that Yuan Shang survived and waited until the day when Yuan Shao "reconciled" with the Black Mountain thieves. It can be seen that Yuan Shang is not young, but he is definitely a guy who cherishes his life. But this kind of person, without absolute certainty, will not easily do something that seems dangerous. So the content on this gift list, as well as Yuan Shang's intention to visit Qin Xu in a hurry, but to say that he would leave without anything in the end, is not as simple as it seems.

"That's not right! How did you forget this! Qin Xu was entangled in the original intention of Cao Cao and Yuan Shang's strange behavior, and was planning to ask Zhen Jian from other channels to find out if there was something wrong in Hebei after today's banquet, so that Cao Cao and Yuan Shang would be "generous" in unison, and rashly send a big gift to Qin Xu to congratulate his daughter. Just as he was about to turn sideways and open his mouth to find someone and tell Jia Xu to come to see him for a while, Qin Xu suddenly remembered someone from Yuan Shang's matter. My heart fluttered.

Yuan Shang has been to Montenegro! Black Mountain thief Zhang Yan! How can you forget this force that survived in the cracks between Yuan Shao's Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu's forces, and was repeatedly suppressed but could not hurt its roots?

I think that when the Black Mountain thieves were at their peak, they were once the sphere of influence of the Black Mountain Bandits, starting from Youzhou in the north, crossing Hanoi in Hebei and Puyang in the south, and hundreds of miles around the ridge. When Gongsun Zhan was weak, he was also exhausted by the heavy pressure of Yuan Shao's army and tossed Yuan Shao with the help of black mountain thieves. It can be seen from this that the energy of millions of black mountain thieves is claimed.

As one of the six wealthy businessmen of the Han Dynasty, the Zhen family in Hebei, although it has been inherited for hundreds of years, no one in Hebei can match the wealth. But compared to the impact on the situation, it is actually only in name. In other words, although the Zhen family is sure that there will be "means" for self-preservation, if it is used to dominate Hebei, it is far from enough.

The Black Mountain Thief, on the other hand, is different. Although the lack of money and food income is the most critical thing to curb the development of Montenegro. But the Black Mountain thieves can't stand the black mountain thieves staring at the land of Hebei like grasshoppers, as long as the timing changes, the chaotic Hebei will become a happy land for the Black Mountain thieves. Whether it is suppressed or co-opted, it can be said that even as long as Montenegro remains neutral, it will eventually benefit the Montenegrin thieves who cannot be defeated, suppressed, or defeated.

It can even be said that as long as there is money and food, Montenegro can betray Gongsun and lead to Yuan Shao during the honeymoon period of cooperation with Gongsun Zhan. Give Gongsun Chan a hard blow; can also help the forces left by the old Yuan family to resist the attack of Gongsun and Liu Bei after Yuan Shao's violent death. So it seems. Compared with the Zhen family, the Black Mountain thief is actually a "better" partner to work with.

So in this Hebei incident, what role did the Montenegrin thieves play? Qin Xu didn't dare to guess. Yuan Shang stayed in Montenegro for two months, and he didn't know what happened, but it was said that after returning to Jizhou, his heart changed greatly, and it is estimated that the probability of being associated with the Montenegrin thieves this time is not very great, otherwise he would not have used this lot of military armor to "give" to such an irrelevant person as Qin Xu. There must be other intentions for doing this, and it is still waiting for Jia Xu's confirmation, so I won't mention him for the time being.

Qin Xu was worried about Cao Cao!

Qin Xu knew that Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain thieves in history, had a relationship with Cao Cao. But it is not a "state" where the two thieves are not separated. Cao Cao's current defense town of Puyang, before Cao Cao entered the Yanzhou pastoral, was once an important stronghold of the Black Mountain thieves, and once united the Qingzhou Yellow Turban with the original Yanzhou Thorn Liu Dai to fight in full swing. After being beaten by Cao Cao, who was the Taishou of Dongjun at the time, he was honest. It didn't take long for Liu Dai to die at the hands of the Yellow Turban. So Cao Cao entered Yanzhou. But the strange thing is that since Cao Cao entered Yanzhou, the Black Mountain thieves don't know if they were scared by Cao Cao at the beginning, but there has never been an invasion of Yanzhou again. Moreover, the final stirring of Hebei in history was turbulent, Ding Yuan, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Yu, and Han Fu were all helpless Black Mountain thieves, but they were finally passed on by Cao Cao. Qin Xu didn't know what had happened in the middle, but now he saw Cao Cao's light wind. It seemed that he didn't care at all about the Zhen family's move to "take refuge" in Qingzhou, and Qin Xu felt a little uneasy in his heart. But now there is no evidence for evidence. If there is no news, in the memory of relying on it to seize the opportunity, it is also vague and ambiguous about this matter, how can Qin Xu be able to put his mind at ease.

"Zhong Ming, are you alright?" After all, Cai Yong's identity and age were there, and he left the living room after only drinking a few glasses of wine, and the Zhen family was already dissatisfied with Qin Xu's strong "alliance conditions", and they no longer ignored Qin Xu after the ceremony. And the rest who are now qualified to have a banquet with Qin Xu are only Qingzhou Sima Zanghong and a group of high-ranking military officials of Lu Bujun. However, these people all know that Qin Xu likes to wander away, and they don't care about it. It was still Cai Yan who was careful and saw Qin Xu's strangeness.

"Oh, it doesn't matter! Just thought of something else. Qin Xu was suddenly startled, and said with a casual smile. Also, what do you want to do so much? Even history that has not yet happened is nothing more than history. Thinking that the Baimen Tower, which was originally in the west gate of Xuzhou, has already let Qin Xu give "forced (demolition)", since he can forcibly change the trajectory of Lu Bu's fall to the White Gate Tower because of his own mixing, he Qin someone has also replaced Liu Bei's position and become the Xuzhou Thorn History, and he also married the two "queens" destined by the big-eared Liu, and now he has accepted a queen as a righteous daughter, what else can't be changed? And why bother with a historical unsolved case.

Besides, even if Cao Cao is really related to the Black Mountain thieves? Before Cao Cao's "backstage boss" Wei Jia, he also had a connection with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, intending to trap Lu Bu to death in Qingzhou, but now that Lu Bu controls Qingxu Erzhou, isn't the whole army living a very nourishing life now? Besides, this time he took advantage of the situation to "tie up" behemoths such as the Zhen family on the side, with the Mi family's money and grain as the foundation, and the Zhen family's iron horse to forge the army, as long as he can drag on the Jiangdong method for a few years, and buy enough time for Qingzhou, when the time comes, let him come in a thousand ways, I only go all the way, Qin Xu really doesn't believe that the pig's foot halo of the three protagonists of the late Han Dynasty, Cao, Big-eared Liu and Sun Green-eyed, can Niu X go under the absolute strength of Lu Bujun.

"If you're tired, take a break." Seeing Qin Xu's sometimes frowning and sometimes stretching, Cai Yan didn't ask the reason, just said softly.

I have to say that after a woman is pregnant, it is really like a different person. Before this is changed, even if the black-bellied sister feels sorry for Qin Xu, she can make people hear three points of irony between her words, where can she be so gentle.

"No need, the guests have not been happy, I, the head of the house, can't I leave the table early! It's Zhao Ji, you should pay more attention to rest when you are pregnant! Qin Xu said with a smile.

Na Yan went with her sister-in-law to arrange a place for Mi'er to live. This girl is new to the house, and I don't know if she will get used to it. Zhen Mi, who has never grown, is still a little girl who looks annoying, which makes Cai Yan's motherhood great. Seeing that Qin Xu was really fine, he slowly stood up and retreated.

Qin Xu's family banquet for recognizing his daughter. It lasted from noon to dinner, and only then did the guests disperse as it got dark. Qin Xu rubbed his buzzing head and returned to the side room where he had just "met" Yuan Shang, where Jia Xu was waiting.

"Wenhe, what's wrong? Yuan Shang's gift list ......, "Cao Cao is too far away, and Qin naturally doesn't have the ability to listen to the world, so he simply put it aside." Speaking of Yuan Shang's "big gift" in Jia Xu's mouth, which is almost equivalent to half of Jizhou's reserves, Qin Xu is most worried about this.

"My lord. I'm afraid this line is going to break! Jia Xu, who always looks confident during the day, also showed a wry smile on his face, and said: "After noon, Xu and General Hao Meng went to hand over to the Yuan clan with a gift list, and there are indeed so many military resources and grass. The weapons and armor are near my Linzi. Xu also sent the shadow under the command of the lord to investigate urgently. This batch of military funds is actually a batch of military funds that Yuan Shao did not have time to transfer away two years ago, when the lord helped General Lu to control Qingzhou with lightning speed. Presumably, Yuan Shao planned to stabilize the foundation of Qingzhou and prepared in advance, but he stayed only because he was in a hurry. It is hidden in the Zishan Mountain near Linzi, but fortunately, the mountain breeze is cool and extremely dry. so as not to make the military rations moldy and the utensils rusty. But there is enough evidence to prove it. This batch of military funds is not a recent shipment from outside. ”

"Oh? Then let's get rid of Yuan Shao's light again. If Yuan Shao knew that these materials were given gifts by Yuan Shang, he would have to go to the Yuan family to talk to the junior of the Yuan family at night. Qin Xu was stunned and smiled. I really didn't expect that my luck was really good, I always encountered windfalls, the previous time it was Kan Xuan who almost ransacked the materials of the two counties of Xuzhou, and cheapened himself for nothing, and this time it was Yuan Shao's hiding.

"Yuan Xianfu is saving himself from disasters! However, it can also be seen that the person behind Yuan Shang still has a bit of a mind! Jia Xu said lightly: "This batch of military funds is not as good as nothing for Yuan Shang!" First, Qingzhou has been obtained by General Lu, and judging from the fact that several important ministers of the Yuan family who surrendered to Cheng never mentioned this matter, it is likely that Yuan Shao's huge amount of materials is absolutely secret. This also makes Yuan Shang want to use it, and he can't explain the source in the first place. And it is very easy to mislead General Lu. Therefore, it is better to directly find an opportunity to take it out as a big favor and indirectly give it to General Lu. Presumably, the person behind Yuan Shang must also know that after you get these materials, you will definitely investigate their provenance, but you have saved Yuan Shang from many tongues, and they have been spared disasters, not to mention, but also at this juncture, to inherit a great favor from Yuan Shang. It's a good calculation! ”

"Yuan Shang is worthy of his background, and it seems that he is really a character!" Qin Xu now understood why Yuan Shang had seen him so easily before, and did not take advantage of the "shock" brought by the huge amount of materials to take the opportunity to make some requests, but instead talked about everything, and even said it together with Zhen Mi's words of forming a brother and sister. Presumably, it was to give Qin Xu a harmless impression of Yuan Shang himself. Presumably, whether it is Tian Feng or Fu Zhu, it should not be difficult for these two talents to see the current situation of the Han Dynasty, as well as the surrounding forces of Hebei and Erzhou, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei and others coveted these two states after Yuan Shao's violent death. also knows that after being operated by Yuan Shao as Yuan's base camp in Hebei for several years, if you want to be stable and stable in a short period of time, you must need a person with Yuan Shao's blood as a surface figure to control it. Among Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang's brothers, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi were involved in the mystery of Yuan Shao's violent death, and their bodies were not clean, so Yuan Shang became the only person who could be supported. Tian Feng and Fu Zhu's plan may be to indirectly show Yuan Shang's appearance of good control in front of Lu Bu, so that if Lu Bu has the intention to do so, he can be the first choice.

As long as Yuan Shang can gain Lu Bu's trust, even if he is just a puppet, at least this life and reputation will be saved first. It's nothing more than the difference between still being a minister of the Han Dynasty or being a minister of Lu Bu. Arida Feng frustrated the two of them to assist, even if he was under the command of Lu Bu, it was not impossible to do anything. It seems that it is really like the sigh of the old poison Jia Xu, and it is a good calculation.

You really can't underestimate any of the ancients! Qin Xu warned himself again!

Tian Feng and Fu Zhu are worthy of being the great strategists who are still salivating after Cao Cao has won so many Yingchuan talents, just for the control of the situation and the uniqueness of his vision, I am afraid that what the entire Han world can do, can be counted with a slap. Tian Feng was able to see through the ending of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao before the battle of Guandu in history, but unfortunately Yuan Shao didn't listen, and locked Tian Feng up.

And the same is true of frustration, even if Qin Xu is at the moment, the previous strategy of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes is from the hands of this eldest brother, if Yuan Shao can be more decisive and ruthless, he will act immediately after listening to the frustration plan, instead of holding a wait-and-see attitude as at that time, until Qin Xu's whereabouts were leaked, so that Yuan Shao found that Qingzhou, which was originally neutral, also mixed in, and then sent troops to Chang'an, I can't say the current situation, Yuan Shao Bacheng has already followed the historical trajectory and achieved the overlord of Hebei.

Alas! How could such talented two people follow the Yuan family so desperately? Qin, who has the nickname of "human trafficker", is a little hot-eyed! (To be continued......)
