When Deng Ji sent his pawn to Taiyuan and asked Yuan Shaozhan if he was going to fight, he was very angry at first.

This is the most utter contempt.

With a noble background and a strong power, he has always been the only one who Yuan Benchu looks down on others, when will he be despised by others?

The unstoppable shame and indignation originally wanted to be desperate to mobilize the You, Ji, and Qing armies to fight with Deng Mu'an again.

However, in the first battle of the party, Deng Ji personally led the army to slash and kill like a wolf, which made people feel palpitations. The previous favorable factors could not achieve the expected goal, and now Ma Chao, Cao Cao, and foreign aid of different races have all been lost, and Deng Ji's newly victorious army is in full swing, and there is no chance of winning another battle with it.

When I calmed down and thought about it, I was discouraged and ashamed at the beginning, and I was not in the mood to send someone to reply to the letter.

Deng Ji fought on three sides this time, and most of the people in the eastern part of the country said that his defeat was imminent, but the final result was very surprising, after this battle, Deng Mu'an was very famous, and no one in Sizhou dared to commit it lightly for at least a few years.

Such a depressing result was naturally not accepted by Ben at the beginning, and it was also responsible for the following martial arts schemes.

After thinking for a long time, he replied: "Although the Sizhou army is fierce, it is difficult to make up for it, and it is not invincible in the world. What Deng Ji did was called the royal road, but he was not able to win the victory, so what was the benefit of fighting? It has been ridiculed by the scholars, but it knows that the benefits are slowing down and not in a hurry, the general trend has not yet been achieved, if there are eight or nine strong armies, there is no one in the world to compete with, this is true! However, since he has no power to make an external plan for the time being, we should also have the opportunity. If you want to overcome it, you can only stop fighting with it for a short time, wait for the people from all directions, disturb it left and right, but do not fight with the decisive battle, so that Deng Ji's soldiers are tired of running for their lives, and it is difficult to increase and consume several years. It is bound to decline! ”

This insight is similar to Guo Jia's discussion, which can be said to be the same as what the hero sees, but Yuan Shao can only sigh: "The public opinion is very good, but the princes of Kwantung have selfish intentions since they have discussed the directors and competed with each other so far. I am afraid that no visionary can understand the harm of Deng Ji, and then have to join forces to resist Deng! ”

Having said this, the wiser can't help but recall that when Li Dao Guo was in turmoil and the Son of Heaven avoided chaos in Hedong, he proposed to welcome the Son of Heaven, but he didn't want to have an extra big man on his head to point fingers, so he flatly refused.

At this time, if there is the righteousness of the Son of Heaven, the name of the Son of Heaven is false. Wooing and ordering the princes of various families to constantly harass Deng Ji, consume Sizhou's soldiers, and the plan of trial and match must be successful, without the righteousness of the Son of Heaven, it is difficult to reproduce the glory of the alliance leader of Dong Shi just by relying on the original.

There is no regret medicine in this world, and everyone in the account can only regret the beginning at this time, but Guo Tu interjected: "Today, Deng Mu'an is the leader of the six armies. The military is not outnumbered. With the good fighting of soldiers, the world can not compete. However, he also knows that there is no way to do it, and there are no wealthy families in the world who are tired of it, if they invade outside, and if they take a county, they will rebel against the clans of the county, and if they occupy a state, the state will rebel, and the non-strong army is not enough to suppress it. Therefore, they did not dare to invade outside, so that everyone said that their army was small. With Deng Ji's strong army, the three families fought together, Han Sui and Cao Cao were defeated, and only the lord was preserved. So that the army is not lost, it can be seen that it is the lord of the hero! ”

After a bit of sycophancy, Guo Tucai continued: "Deng Mu'an is invincible for the time being, and the only way to do it is to judge Zhengnan's plan, but why does the lord need to fake his hands when he acts?" Cao Mengde was at the beginning of the time to seize Henan, and the army under his rule was seven or eight out of ten, and he was defeated in Henan, and the rats who returned were only three or four thousand troops, so pushed, Yan, Henan, and Xu were probably less than 10,000 ......"

"No!" Although Guo Tu didn't finish speaking, everyone already knew what he meant, and the judge interrupted in shock: "Cao Mengde and the lord have been in alliance for several years, if the alliance is suddenly destroyed and attacked, the lord will lose his trust and lose the popularity of the people!" ”

The content of the deliberations changed suddenly, and the generals such as Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Ran also exclaimed in a riot, but Yuan Shao only valued the celebrities, and the military generals in the camp had always had no right to speak compared to the trial, etc., although they were surprised, they all couldn't help but say nothing.

When the judge screamed and lost his voice, he was reminded by Guo Tu, but Yuan Shao was in a great spirit.

Seeing that the original intention was moved, Guo Tu's face showed pride, and then he slowly said to the judge: "Military affairs, how can you only talk about benevolence and righteousness, and you can't see the ancient Song Xianggong?" The main business is in Hebei, if you don't want to use troops on the border of foreign tribes, you can only use Deng Mu'an and Cao Mengde. Now Sizhou can not be the enemy for the time being, Cao Cao's soldiers are less than 10,000, but they sit on the land of Sanzhou, they can go down with a drum, the sky and do not take it, and they should be blamed! And Cao Mengde first sought refuge in the lord, and acted in the name of the lord, so as to become today's trend, but he did not want to be grateful to Huaide, and only relied on the power of the yang and the yin on weekdays, recruited criminals, and privately coerced the Son of Heaven, and gave endless orders, how could such a villain and immoral person be allied with him again? Why not take advantage of it? ”

remembered that Xun's, Xin's, Guo Jia, Zhu Ling, Xu You, etc. abandoned and left one by one, and went south to join the Cao family, making their own face ruined, but Meng De is still unwilling to give an explanation; I thought that if I could swallow Cao Cao's territory, it would be seven states in hand, and half of the world would already have it!

Destroy Cao Cao, you can take the Son of Heaven in your hands, with your own status as the lord of ASEAN, in the name of righteousness, is it difficult for people to surround Deng Muan?

Even if Zhang Lu and Liu Biao's generation did not respond to the consumption of Sizhou, they could occupy Cao Cao's land, and they could surround most of Deng Ji's territory, and they would continue to send troops to harass and consume soldiers.

Accustomed to the existence of allies, didn't Guo Tu remind him that he had forgotten that Cao Cao suffered such a crushing defeat in Henan and his army collapsed, wouldn't it be a good opportunity given to him by God?

What childhood friends, what covenants, can be compared to the land of Yan, Henan, and Xu Zhongyuan at your fingertips?

At the beginning of the trial, he was shocked and retorted, it was just an instinct, a kind of shame that he was in a high position but was negligent enough to take advantage of the situation to go south and lose to Guo Tu, not that he really thought that Fa Cao would lose more to his original reputation.

The original demeanor had already shown a heart-warming appearance, and at this time it was too late to change his words, and he was in a hurry to get wise, and said the dilemma of going south to attack Cao: "Deng Ji is on the side, how can the lord's army calmly go south?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent again, and Guo Tu couldn't solve this problem, so he had to think about it again.

Deng Ji's forces are indeed insufficient to invade and expand the territory, but it is more than enough to block Yuan Shao at critical moments, such as when Yuan Cao's two armies were fighting, they suddenly heard that Sizhou soldiers were besieging Yecheng, or the grain road was attacked.

Don't forget, the two families had just fought for life and death in the party before, and Deng Muan could allow Yuan Shao to occupy the land of Sanzhou again, and there was such a strong neighbor by his side?

After a long time, Yuan Shao spoke tentatively: "Maybe you can send an envoy to Luoyang to make peace with Deng Jiyan?" ”

"Deng Jijun's divisions Tian Feng and Jia Xu are all strategists, if they have no plan, they will not be short-sighted! Even if it is allowed for a while, it cannot be trusted. "There is no need to judge and object, Guo Tu himself knows that it is impossible to make peace at this time.

Yuan Shao pondered for a while: "Why don't you make a profit?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Shao was going south to attack Cao, he had been constantly using his brain to find a way, but he was iron-hearted, and he was helpless, so he had to ask: "What can make Deng Mu move easily?" ”

Deng Ji is not stupid, at this time, the two families are only an expedient measure after all, Yuan Benchu does not give big profits, I don't think he will agree to watch. And the abundance of money and grain reserves in Sizhou is only slightly inferior to Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and the rest of the war horses and armor are the first in the world, what can Yuan Shao come up with to confuse his mind?

Judge, Guo Tu and the others couldn't think of an answer, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said: "Merge the state with him!" ”

"Shhh

Several low-level generals in the back row gasped.

The land of a state, given to Deng Ji in vain? Yuan Gong is so willing?

Judge, Guo Tu, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Yuan Shangdu were all shocked, and Yuan Shao asked again: "How?" Can the state be merged and Deng Ji is not out? ”

After Zhang Yan, the power of the great clan of the state has declined, if Deng Ji can get the land of the state without spending soldiers, he is naturally willing, with his love for the people under his rule, after managing the huge state annexation, he will have to prevent the Xiongnu and Xianbei from adding chaos, and the energy is estimated to be not enough to interfere in the battle of Yuan Cao.

At this moment, Yuan Benchu's determination to break his wrist was indeed unexpected, and he thought more than others: now nearly half of the state is occupied by foreigners, and the party is in the hands of Pang Zhen, and it has been messed up by the Yellow Turban, Baibo, Xiongnu, Montenegro, etc., although it is called the land of a state, but the total population is not as good as a county in Hanoi under Deng Ji's rule, so Yuan Shao let his nephew take care of it instead of his son.

Among the states in the world, the hardest hit by the Yellow Turban Rebellion were Hebei and Qing Erzhou, and the hardest hit by Dong Zhuo and Li Dao were Sizhou and Liangzhou, but these places were slowly recovering after being governed, but the war in the state did not stop, and it failed to get a chance to recover, and it was already the most decaying state in the Han Dynasty.

At the beginning, he was willing to use the state to make a transaction, but Guo Tu was not able to take care of things, and he was afraid that the responsibility would fall on his own head afterwards, so he didn't dare to make a conclusion easily, so he only said: "Such an important matter, you can't decide lightly, why don't you send an envoy to ask Yecheng to frustrate the public?" ”

On weekdays, in order to compete for the position of the chief strategist under Yuan Shao's account, the judge likes to say goodbye to Frustration, but at this time, he takes the initiative to push the matter to the opponent, in addition to shirking some responsibilities, he also knows that Frustration is more far-sighted than him.

Yuan Shao also had no objection, so he sent a messenger to send a letter to Yecheng through Jingcheng, explaining his family's desire to marry Deng Ji and attack Cao Cao in the south.

"The public lives in Hebei, now only Deng and Cao are neighbors, both Deng Ji is invincible, and he takes advantage of the situation to ask for the newly defeated Cao Cao, which is very good! However, when he heard the intention of Zhengnan and Guo Gongze, he wanted to merge the land of the state with Deng Ji, which is also false! Since ancient times, I have never heard of an enemy in the land of a state, and if Deng Ji has to merge with the state, he will fight for the Taihang Road, peeping into Ji and You, and since then we will not be at peace! If the state is lost, it is unstable, and this is easy to Yan, Henan, and Xu Hu in Hebei? In a certain bad opinion, Shangdang Pang is really a thief, and he is not willing to live under others, Deng Ji takes it as a barrier, how can it last long? If you release your previous sins, send envoys to make friends, and then let the counties of the state strengthen their strength, they will have a gap with the Deng family, which is the yang world. When Deng and Pang are evil, we have no worries, and we can still make friends with Pang to counter Deng Ji. Deng Mu'an lost the party, Hanoi and Hedong were all threatened by Pang Zhen, and they needed to divide their troops to deal with it, and if they wanted to attack Jizhou again, they could only take Ye through Hanoi. ”

The idea of ceding the state to Deng Ji was originally made by Yuan Shao, but he was pushed to the trial and Guo Tu by frustration, and it was very ironic, although it was an honor to carry the black pot for the lord, but the strategists under his command were not in agreement, and now it is better to have less quarrels, and it is not good to circulate the letter again.

Yuan Shao received a letter of frustration, and he was overjoyed, so that he acted according to the plan, and prepared his own class teacher to return to Yecheng. (To be continued......)
