Chapter 178: Alliance
"General, in three days we will be in Bingzhou, as long as we get there, we will be safe. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"How's Jizhou doing?" Tian Yu's pale lips on the horse made his face more sickly, and the clothes on his body were red, both his and his enemies.
"Jizhou, Jizhou...... Lost. The soldier was red-eyed, he was from Jizhou, and the loss of his hometown made him feel sad.
Hearing this, Tian Yu's face showed a flush, although he had already guessed all this, but how he wished it was a dream.
"Lord, lord...... How's it going. Tian Yu looked at the soldiers beside him and asked with difficulty, using all his strength.
"Lord, lord...... Dead"
Tian Yu's brain roared, and he muttered in his mouth: "Lord, he is actually dead, how can he die." ”
Under the comfort of his own soldiers, Tian Yu finally calmed down, he gritted his teeth and said, "How is the second son of Youzhou." "Tian Yu knows that Jizhou has fallen, then Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan in Jizhou City will definitely die, because Cao Cao will not let them go, and now the only one who can rely on is Yuan Shao's personal seal of Youzhou Mu Yuan Xi.
The soldier listened to Tian Yu's question, his face showed hesitation, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "In Youzhou, Cao Cao opened favorable conditions to make many families in Youzhou fall to him, and now Youzhou has lost the support of Jizhou, and it is about to run out of food. ”
Hearing this, Tian Yu nodded, because he had almost guessed that many years of control of a state's military affairs had made him mature politically.
"Turn the horse's head, let's go to Youzhou." Tian Yu's face showed a resolute look, because he knew that if he didn't go to Youzhou, Youzhou would inevitably be lost.
"General, but, but Youzhou is in danger now." Tian Yu's personal soldiers blocked.
Hearing this, Tian Yu's waist straightened slightly, and said: "In life, there are some things that must be done, if I don't do it, I'm afraid it will make me feel uneasy." ”
"Let the country go slowly." Not far away, a white-clothed cavalry galloped in the direction of Tian Yu, led by Zhao Yun.
"Zilong, what's the matter here?" Tian Yu asked, but unconsciously tightened the spear in his hand.
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Guorang, when did you and my brother become so angry." ”
Tian Yu's brows furrowed slightly: "Zilong, now you and I are our own masters, no matter how good your personal relationship is, I will not do the thing of selling the lord to seek glory." ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, a trace of loss appeared on his face, did he really mean to let Tian Yu surrender to Chen Xun, but looking at Tian Yu who was so resolute, he couldn't say it anymore when the words came to his mouth.
"Guorang, you misunderstood, the lord sent me just to let me discuss the alliance with you."
Tian Yu snorted and said, "An alliance with Chen Fuzhi is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger, and this matter is impossible. ”
"If General Tian doesn't form an alliance with my lord, I'm afraid you will be destroyed by Cao Cao next year." Behind Zhao Yun, a young man in brown clothes walked out, this person was Fa Zheng, the son of Fa Yan, who was sent by Chen Xun to Zhao Yun to train at this time.
When Tian Yu saw this young man, he said with disdain on his face: "Ignorant child, you dare to talk about national affairs. "Age is often one of the important criteria for judging a person, and even Tian Yu is not exempt from vulgarity.
Hearing this, Fa Zheng was not annoyed, and under the education of the people sent by Chen Xun for many years, he was not as good as he was in history.
"General Tian, I guess that the current Youzhou should have become a mess, and you should want to go to Youzhou now to use the power of your Tian family to stabilize the situation in Youzhou, right or not."
Hearing this, a touch of surprise flashed through Tian Yu's eyes, he didn't expect that the person in front of him could actually guess what he was thinking.
"General Tian, I guess that your going to Youzhou now should not have much impact on the situation, but if you don't return to Merge Prefecture, then Merge State will inevitably be lost, since Cao Cao has already made a move on Youzhou, how can he not do it against Merge State."
Hearing this, Tian Yu's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character, because what Fa Zheng said was indeed reasonable.
"You said that Cao Cao would do the things of repairing the plank road in the bright and secretly Chen Cang, and now it is more dangerous than Youzhou?"
Fa Zheng nodded and said: "I expected that the current city of Bingzhou has become a pot of porridge, and now Cao Cao should have sent a large army to prepare to take Bingzhou." ”
"Come on, turn around, let's go back to the state." When Tian Yu heard this, his face couldn't help but change, if the state was lost, then Youzhou would be alone, and it would not be far from their defeat.
Looking at Tian Yu who looked like this, Fa Zheng chuckled and said, "General Tian, my lord is willing to provide 200,000 taels of military rations, 10,000 spears, and 20,000 armor as gifts for the alliance. ”
Hearing this, Tian Yu stopped slightly.
"Chen Xun wants to use us to block Cao Cao?"
Fa Zheng chuckled, "My lord has this intention, but without the assistance of our Guanzhong army, within two years, Yuan Shao's foundation will be defeated, and if Cao Cao's offensive is tight, we can also send troops to help, with our support, your Yuan family's foundation can be restored, and you can also avenge Yuan Shao." ”
Tian Yu closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, but Fa Zheng and the others were calm and relaxed there, looking confident. Fa Zheng believed that Tian Yu was a smart man, and he would definitely agree to the alliance.
Tian Yu's eyes opened suddenly, and he said: "I agreed to the alliance with Chen Fuzhi, but 200,000 quintals of military food is too little, I want 400,000 quintals, and I want 20,000 weapons and 40,000 armor." ”
"Okay, General Tian, I promised on behalf of my lord, the grain in Hexi will be harvested, and 400,000 loads of military food is not a problem, as for the weapons, we can't take out much for a while, can we use war horses instead."
Hearing this, Tian Yu's eyes lit up, no matter when and where, war horses are the most scarce strategic resources, if Chen Xun is willing to provide them with war horses, then he really can't ask for them.
Tian Yu discussed with Fa Zheng, and in the end, all the weapons turned into horses, and three thousand war horses were not a small number.
After Tian Yu left, Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Xiaozhi, the conditions you offered are too generous." ”
Hearing this, Fa Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Before I came, the lord said a word to me, asking for a price all over the sky, sitting on the ground to pay back, whether to give it or not is our business, what we want is a weak Yuan, not a small tyrant." ”
Zhao Yun felt a little inappropriate when he heard this, but since it was Chen Xun's order, he didn't want to say much.
"General Zhao, our first stop has been completed, it's time to go to Liaodong to meet Gongsun Kang." (To be continued.) )
