The eldest brother of the twins in the luxury carriage is named Qi Tai, his surname is steady, and every time he makes a decision, he will take all the causes and consequences into account, and he belongs to the kind of person who likes to control the overall situation. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And his younger brother Qi Kang's surname is completely opposite to his brother, he doesn't think about the consequences at all, and does whatever he thinks, which is very similar to the madman You Heng who will be famous in Qingzhou in the future, but Qi Kang has an advantage, that is, he will not offend people casually, whenever Yuan Shao asks his opinion, he will seriously consider it, and he will not make up his mind easily.

Both of them are highly valued by Yuan Shao, in order to show his love for the two, Yuan Shao even allowed the two to enter and exit Yuan Shao's mansion freely, as long as they have any opinions, they can play Yuan Shao as soon as possible, which is a great favor, and the two did not live up to Yuan Shao's expectations, and made a very great contribution in the short period of more than a year of Yuan Shao's rise.

"The words of peace are reasonable, and the humble position also agrees." I saw the twins' brother Qi Tai nodded at Yuan Shao and said.

"I don't think so!" As soon as Qi Tai agreed, Qi Kang, who was his younger brother, frowned, looked against him, and said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, our army enters Beihai Country along Dongguan, and the yellow turbans along the road are scarce, so it is not a problem, and Beihai Country is the place of four wars that connects our army's territory, if we take Beihai Country, our army can radiate the entire territory of Qingzhou based on Beihai, and even dominate the entire Qingzhou before the Yellow Turban is destroyed!" ”

"De'an, isn't that too anxious?" Wu Zhuo frowned, obviously a little disapproving, in Wu Zhuo's opinion, the rice should be eaten one bite at a time, if he was in such a hurry to capture Beihai, it would make the entire battle situation out of control.

"General Ben thinks De'an is right, let De'an continue." Yuan Shao glanced at Wu Zhuo, narrowed his eyes slightly, and made a slightly calming gesture towards Wu Zhuo with his right hand, signaling Qi Kang to continue.

Dominating Qingzhou, this is a thing that Yuan Shao attaches great importance to, although Yuan Shao's territory is vast, but there is no state as the foundation, population and other aspects, will be much weaker, and Qingzhou is Yuan Shao's best choice at present, no matter what the process is, as long as he can dominate Qingzhou, then Yuan Shao will be satisfied.

"Yes, my lord!" Wu Zhuo arched his hand at Yuan Shao, his expression was a little dignified, in fact, Wu Zhuo always believed that Qingzhou was not the best choice for Yuan Shao, after all, Qingzhou and Liu Tai were adjacent to each other, if he dominated Qingzhou, it would be equivalent to saying that Yuan Shao would directly bear the pressure from the north, and most importantly, Donglai County and Pingyuan County in Qingzhou were still in the hands of the north!!

"De'an, say all your thoughts, if you can get Qingzhou because of this, General Ben will have a heavy reward!" A smile hung on the corner of Yuan Shao's mouth, and he said to Qi Kang with an amiable look, which made Qi Kang grateful, and sighed in his heart that this life was worthwhile.

"No!" Qi Kang bowed to Yuan Shao with a grateful expression, and then said loudly: "Lord, please think, now that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is raging in the prefecture and county, causing the people to live in poverty, the Lord Lord led the righteous army to reach out to the rescue, which is to occupy the commanding heights of morality, and Kong Rong is the prime minister of Beihai and a dignified auxiliary general, but he can't protect the territory and the people, so what's the use of holding his military power?" ”

Speaking of this, Qi Kang glanced around at the people in the carriage, and found that several people, including Wu Zhuo, all nodded, expressing their agreement with Qi Kang's idea, seeing this, a satisfied smile hung on the corner of Qi Kang's mouth, and continued: "The lord is the lord of the princes' alliance, and Kong Rong is only a prince's ear, if the lord can lead the male division to surround Pingshou City with lightning speed, making Kong Rong speechless, wouldn't it be easy to take away Kong Rong's military power when the time comes?" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, please think about it, even if Kong Rong wants to resist? Although Pingshou City is the seat of Beihai National Administration, but the strength is limited, at most only 5,000 people, think my lord is 50,000 heroes, is a small city of 5,000 people can't take it? Qi Kang said to Wu Zhuo and the others with a confident look, but most of the time, his eyes were still on Wu Zhuo, and the strong provocation could be seen by fools.

A force can never avoid the party and government, even if today's northern Xinjiang, although it is harmonious on the surface, but in private it is the intertwined forces of various forces, but Liu Tai is too strong, and these problems have not been revealed.

Under Yuan Shao's rule, the contradictions between the party and the government have been very obvious, one faction is the Central Plains scholars headed by Qi Tai and Qi Kang, the other is the Taixue students in the Luoyang area of Guanzhong, and the rest have some small forces, but compared with Shuangqi and Wu Zhuo, it is nothing.

In fact, this situation is deliberately connived at by Yuan Shao, although Yuan Shao is also a generation of heroes, but the deep-rooted imperial means are still the most important, in Yuan Shao's view, as a monarch, as long as he grasps the balance in the middle, at this time Yuan Shao wants to grasp the balance is Wu Zhuo and Erqi, and the military group under Yuan Shao's command appears to be the head of the figure, and then the balance may be Wen and Wu.

"Attacking is not beautiful in the end, no matter what, the lord is the leader of the princes' alliance, he must maintain his trust, if he attacks the local princes with privileges, then everyone in the world will be in danger, I'm afraid" Wu Zhuo glanced at Yuan Shao, his expression was a little hesitant, he wanted to say, but he didn't dare to say it.

In fact, Wu Zhuo's meaning is already obvious, that is, he hopes that Yuan Shao will not use the privilege of the alliance leader, otherwise he will be attacked by the princes and end up with Dong Zhuo, why bother?

"Huh?" Yuan Shao was in the prime of life at this time, although all the people present were extremely smart strategists, but Yuan Shao was not a fool, listening to Wu Zhuo's obvious words, there was still a reason why he couldn't return to God!

But what if you come back to your senses? Yuan Shao wants Qingzhou, what he wants is hegemony, in Yuan Shao's opinion, if one day, he can dominate the Central Plains, as long as Liu Tai does not move, what about the princes of the world?

"Take the !! of the North Sea" Gritting his teeth, Yuan Shao didn't allow others to talk about it at all, and made up his mind directly!

Faith or something, everything is vain, in troubled times, only strength, incomparably strong strength, can make everyone surrender!

Just imagine, if Liu Tai only has bravery, and his territory is only one state and one county, how can the princes of the world be so afraid? In the end, it's just that Liu Tai's strength is too strong, if Yuan Shao also has this strength!!

========= Beihai, Pingshou City Pingshou City has a very high status in Beihai, it can be called the military and political center of Beihai State, inheriting Qilu culture, resulting in the prosperity of the people in the city, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is located in the most prosperous South Street in the city, and South Street is a good place for countless gate lords and nobles to gather!

At this time, the atmosphere in the Prime Minister's Mansion was extremely dull, Kong Rong, who was the Minister of State of Beihai, got the latest news, the Yellow Turban Thief was headed by Chu Feiyan, and the army of 100,000 was approaching.

"Lord, Chu Feiyan will be able to enter Pingshou City in about ten days at most!" Wu Anguo, who should have retired with a broken arm in history, was still active under Kong Rong at this time, and I saw Wu Anguo, who was tall in stature and had muscles like a coiled dragon in his arms, wearing heavy armor, kneeling on the ground and shouting at Kong Rong, who was reading documents.

"Anguo, is the situation so grim? None of the levels along the way have the ability to block them? Kong Rong raised his head, his face was haggard, since Zhang Niujiao rose in Qingzhou, Kong Rong and all the Taishou in Qingzhou have hardly had a good day, if it goes on like this, Kong Rong really has no confidence to continue to support.

"Yes, lord, the situation is very grim, it is rumored that in order to avoid the edge of Chu Feiyan's army, the minister of Le'an even directly abandoned the official seal and fled, causing tens of thousands of people in Le'an to be slaughtered by Chu Feiyan, which is really hateful!!" Wu Anguo said with an angry face, before coming here, Wu Anguo had received accurate information, as the minister of Le'an State, the local princes with tens of thousands of soldiers in their hands, actually abandoned the city and ran away directly

"Bang!"

"What ?!!" I saw Kong Rong get up angrily, and accidentally knocked over the table in front of him, the face full of pain, can't be fake at all, although Le Anguo is not under Kong Rong's rule, but Kong Rong is a native of Qingzhou after all, if he gets the news of the fall of Le Anguo, how can Kong Rong bear it?

"Anguo, immediately, immediately send troops to the rescue, we must rescue the people from the hands of the Yellow Turban thieves!!" Kong Rong ignored the table case that fell to the ground, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Wu Anguo's solid and powerful arms and shouted.

Looking at the teardrop in Kong Rong's eyes, Wu Anguo was full of green muscles, and just wanted to respond, but at the same time, he thought that at this time, Pingshou City was about to face the ravages of the Yellow Turban Thieves, so he could only bow his head helplessly, gritted his teeth and said to Kong Rong: "Don't be impatient, the most important thing at this time is how to keep Pingshou City, there are tens of thousands of people and Han princes in Pingshou City, and they have to rely on the lord to protect them. ”

"How is this good?" Kong Rong was dumbfounded, although Kong Rong was one of the famous princes, but when he was in a hurry, he would also be confused, after all, Kong Rong was just an ordinary person with authority, not a so-called saint!

It is worth mentioning that as a descendant of Confucius, Kong Rong does not value the family and the country, but the common people, which is an alternative, in Kong Rong's view, it doesn't matter how many princes and nobles die, but the people are slaughtered, then Kong Rong can't tolerate it.

"Yes, by the way, hasn't the Yuan League Master already led his troops to help? Where is the Yuan Alliance Master at this time? As long as the Yuan League Lord arrives at Pingshou City in time, how can the Yellow Turban Thief under Chu Feiyan be his opponent? ? As if thinking of something, Kong Rong suddenly said to Wu Anguo with a happy expression.

At this time, Yuan Shao is Kong Rong's life-saving straw, in Kong Rong's opinion, Yuan Shao has countless capable people and strange people, and the yellow turban thieves are just a problem that can be solved by the palm of his hand.

"Lord, when has it been, you are still thinking about Yuan Shao, doesn't the lord know that Yuan Shao has coveted Qingzhou for a long time? Even if Yuan Shao comes to Pingshou, I Pingshou must be tightly closed, and there must be no slackness, if Yuan Shao is given a chance, it will be an irretrievable danger to my Beihai! Wu Anguo said helplessly to Kong Rong, the worry between the words was so obvious.

In fact, Wu Anguo has always disagreed with Yuan Shao leading troops into Qingzhou, after all, at this time the chaos in the world has appeared, Yuan Shao wants to develop, in addition to Yanzhou is Qing, Xu, at this time Xuzhou and the two Huai Cao Ying relationship is very good, with Cao Ying, Yuan Shao can not think about Xuzhou, so that Yuan Shao's only object that can use troops is Qingzhou.

"Nonsense, Lord Yuan is the head of the princes of the world, how can he covet my land of the North Sea? Besides, this is a joint invitation from Benhou Yu Qingzhou Mu Han Fu, if Yuan Shao has a mind on Beihai, when Han Fu makes a desperate counterattack, Yuan Shao will not gain more than he loses! Although Kong Rong lightly scolded Wu Anguo, he didn't blame him, and his words also revealed that Kong Rong was not a little wary of Yuan Shao! None of the people who can become princes are fools, Kong Rong knows very well that inviting Yuan Shao to come to Qingzhou this time has taken a very big risk, but what can Kong Rong do? Could it be that Qingzhou was ravaged by the Yellow Turban Army? Kong Rong can't do it, he really can't do it! You should take the people as the sky!!

"Han Fu??" I saw Wu Anguo sneering with disdain on his face, and said to Kong Rong: "Don't you know that Qingzhou Mu Han Fu is thinking about throwing down the position of Qingzhou Mu at this time?" Qingzhou is adjacent to the northern Xinjiang, in order to please the God King, Dong Thief ceded the entire territory of Qingzhou to the God King in the name of the imperial court, and this holy decree was still placed in the God King's Mansion at this time, what is Han Fu? Does he dare to rob Qingzhou with the God King? ”

"Huh??" Kong Rong's expression was surprised for a moment, looking at Wu Anguo, as if he had discovered a new continent, how could a rough person like Wu Anguo understand so much? This is obviously unreasonable.

"Anguo, who taught you this?" Squinting his eyes, Kong Rong's brain was running rapidly, turning over all the scholars who were close to Wu Anguo, but he really couldn't think of anyone who could have such a high insight.

"I didn't think about it, but I was discovered by the lord, and the last general didn't dare to hide it, these words were told by Lu Yucheng, and Mr. Lu told the last general." Wu Anguo's expression suddenly turned red, and it would always be a little embarrassing to be exposed, not to mention that it was Kong Rong, the lord of Wu Anguo?

"Why did this kid Lu An go back to Beihai??" Kong Rong's expression was stunned, and then he was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled up Wu Anguo and said: "Quick, quickly take Ben Hou to meet Lu An, this kid is scheming, and he can definitely solve the troubles in front of him for Ben Hou." ”

Lu An's word Yucheng, Qingzhou Beihai people's clan, Kong Rong's fellow townsmen and classmates, and Kong Rong, Qi Tai, Qi Kang are known as one of the four heroes of Beihai, less studious, have a strange plan, and Kong Rong has the best personal relationship with Kong Rong among the four, Kong Rong has written to Lu An many times since he took office as Beihai Taishou, hoping that Lu An can serve under his command, but for some reason, Lu An did not make any response, and even left Qingzhou for more than a year, and there was no trace of him until now.

Pingshou City, an inn with extremely ordinary decoration.

There are not many guests in the inn today, in the corner of the hall, there is a man in a black robe, his face is indifferently sipping tea, his eyes are a little hazy, as if he has not woken up, and seems to be still sleeping

Beside the black-robed man, there was a young handsome young man of sixteen or seventeen years old, this handsome young man had a delicate face, his long hair was draped wildly on his body, and he did not make any decoration, like a beggar, this young man's eyes were surprisingly bright, as if he could see through all the ups and downs of the world.

The young man and the black-robed man looked at each other, without the slightest concession, the field of vision was pulled in, only to hear a crisp and arrogant words from the young man's mouth: "Teacher, why don't you let the students go to the northern Xinjiang, with the students' skills, what kind of god king, don't you come to greet you in a hurry, as for settling in this Beihai, with coarse tea and light rice?" ”

Crazy, crazy enough, today, there are still scholars who can say this, just with this guts, it can be impressive, but fortunately, there are no other guests around this table at this time, otherwise, this young man will inevitably be ridiculed.

"Shut up!" The black-robed man snorted at the young man, and said with anger on his face: "Tell you to put away that stinky mouth, why don't you remember your surname at all?" Who is the God-King? Is it something you can see if you want to? The reason why the teacher brought you to Beihai is to train your arrogance, if you are born according to your surname, you may end up in ruin, and you will not be able to die!! ”

The black-robed man looked like he was no more than thirty-five or sixteen years old, but his words were very old, well, as if he had a weak touch, in fact, the black-robed man was Kong Rong's friend and classmate Lu An, Lu An came to Beihai at this time, not to make a career for himself, but to arrange a career for his only apprentice.

But this apprentice looks a little unlucky, in such a troubled world, how can he live a long time when he speaks in such an arrogant tone, this is taught by Lu'an? But looking at the presence of the old god of Lu'an, Taishan collapsed in front of him and didn't look like a person who could teach such an arrogant disciple.

"Teacher, what are you worried about, although this Beihai is one word different from Beijiang, but it is very different, and that Kong Beihai is a good friend of the teacher, with Kong Beihai's support, who dares not to trouble us with long eyes?" The young man's expression was a little disdainful, he took a sip of tea, and smashed his mouth without the slightest literati style, his face full of ruffianism.

"You" Lu An was helpless, rolled his eyes, and drank tea by himself, at this time Lu An was still hesitating, whether he should recommend his disciple to Kong Rong's command. If this disciple still doesn't change his surname, Lu An feels that it is better to dispel this idea.

"Haha Yucheng Brother Xian, I don't think you would actually hide in this kind of small inn, for a few years, I don't know if your body is fine?" Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from outside the inn, and I saw Kong Rong walking into the inn under the protection of Wu Anguo and a large number of personal guards, and when he saw Lu An sitting in the corner, he immediately arched his hand and stepped forward with a smile on his face.
