Chapter 45: The Opportunity to Take Off

"Ziyang, I want to get rid of Zheng Bao in Chao County, I don't know what to teach me?"

In fact, no matter whether Liu Ye comes to Jinfan or not, if Wang Chong wants to take Huainan as his own, then the first object to be solved is Zheng Bao, who led the troops stationed in Chao County.

The reason why Wang Chong did not agree to Liu Ye's request to send troops to Chaohu was because Liu Ye's purpose at that time was nothing more than to use Jinfan's power to deal with Zheng Bao, and he did not consider whether Jinfan could succeed or how many soldiers and horses he would sacrifice; But now, since Liu Ye has decided to stay in Jinfan temporarily, he naturally has to take these factors into account.

Liu Ye thought for a while and said: "Zheng Bao, as a local powerhouse, the forces in the Chaohu area can be said to be staggered, with Jinfan's current strength, if he adopts a strong attack strategy, I am afraid it is not wise!" ”

Of course, Wang Chong knew this: "Can you use a strategy to lure them to send troops to attack the mouth of the water?" Then we can set up an ambush and wipe them out! ”

Liu Ye shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Zheng Bao is a very inward-looking, seemingly arrogant and arrogant on the surface, but in fact, he bullies the soft and fears the hard, is as timid as a mouse, and is brave in Jinfan, who doesn't know on both sides of the Jianghuai River now?" If Zheng Bao really had the courage to raise troops to retaliate, why did Ye come to Jinfan to persuade the leader to send troops to Chaohu before? ”

Wang Chong nodded thoughtfully and sighed: "Since you can't attack by force, you can only outwit it." ”

Liu Ye hesitated for a moment and said: "Ye has a plan in his heart, but this plan is very risky, and if one is not good, he will lose himself!" ”

"Tell me about it."

"As we all know, Zheng Bao has had troops in Chaohu for more than a year, and during this time, he has neither attached himself to Liu Xun nor taken refuge in Sun Ce, which shows that neither of these two families are the best choice in his heart." Liu Ye paused as he spoke, his eyes shining, "Cao Cao!" Jianghuai is powerful and has many hearts to Cao Cao, I believe that Zheng Bao is no exception, if the leader can send someone to pretend to be Cao Cao's envoy to Chao County, Zheng Bao will put on a feast and warm hospitality. When Zheng Bao's mind is relaxed after the three rounds of drinking, Jin Fan can take the opportunity to kill him, and then use the name of Cao Cao to deter Xiaoxiao, I believe that his subordinates will not dare to act rashly! ”

Wang Chong frowned: "This plan is very good, but the key is how to win Zheng Bao's trust and make him believe that we are really the envoys sent by Cao Cao?" ”

"If Ye comes forward, it shouldn't be difficult to win Zheng Bao's trust!"

"I disagree!" Wang Chong decisively refused, "This plan is too dangerous, if Ziyang has a good one, how should I deal with myself?" ”

Liu Ye was moved in his heart, but he still insisted: "This is the best way to occupy Chaohu Lake without blood, not to mention that Ye is quite famous in Huainan, even if the matter is revealed, they will not dare to touch me!" ”

Wang Chong pondered for a moment and said: "Okay, since this is the case, I will personally accompany Ziyang on a trip, if there is really any accident, I can also try my best to protect Ziyang's safety!" ”

Liu Ye was taken aback: "The son of a daughter, he can't sit down, the leader wants to be with Ye, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”

"What's wrong? All beings are equal, no one is high or low, you Liu Ziyang dare to risk your life for me Jinfan, so how can I, the leader, be willing to lag behind? Wang Chong smiled faintly, "Chaoxian is just a county, and it's not a Longtan tiger's den, what's there to be afraid of?" ”

Liu Ye admires Wang Chong's courage and courage, but this does not mean that he will agree to let Wang Chong accompany him on the adventure.

"Let's take a long-term view of this matter, after all, the safety of the leader does not only represent you personally, but also the life and death of the entire Jinfan, even if Ye agrees, the leader is afraid that it will be difficult to convince the generals under his command, right?"

"This ......" As soon as he heard Liu Ye's words, Wang Chong's scalp suddenly tingled, before he secretly went to Chaisang, he had been talked about by Gan Ning for most of the day, if he wanted to repeat the old trick this time, I was afraid that it would really anger Gan Ning afterwards, but if he informed him in advance, the possibility that Gan Ning would agree to him was almost zero.

"Ding, the skill of hiding the knife in the smile is used successfully, and the experience value is +500."

Just as Wang Chong was thinking about how to convince Gan Ning, the cold voice of the system suddenly sounded in his mind.

Zhuge Jin succeeded, that is to say, from now on, Jin Fan finally broke away from the thief and became a nominal official army.

"Chief, the sentry to Shouchun has returned, I wonder when the leader will summon you?" Outside the study, Wang Chong's personal guards knocked lightly on the door twice and reported.

"Hurry up and let him come to me!" Not caring about Liu Ye's strange gaze, Wang Chong said emotionally to the door.

On this day, Wang Chong has been waiting for too long, if it is not as he expected, the time for Jinfan to really take off will finally come.

Liu Ye got up and saluted: "Since the leader still has important matters to deal with, Ye will retire first." ”

Wang Chong waved his hand to stop Liu Ye, who wanted to leave: "Eh, Ziyang doesn't need to avoid it, and if you talk about this matter, you still need Ziyang to have a lot of advisers!" ”

Liu Ye was silent for a moment when he heard this, then nodded and sat back down.

A moment later, the sentry pushed the door and entered, and reported: "The leader of Qiqi, Yuan Shu's cousin Yuan Yin and son-in-law Huang Yi have carried Yuan Shu's coffin two days ago, led Yuan Shu's family to the south, and led four thousand tribes from Shouchun to the south, according to reliable sources, they want to go to Anhui City to join Lujiang Taishou Liu Xun!" ”

"Well, let's go down." Wang Chong shook his hand and retreated from the sentry and asked Liu Ye, "How does Ziyang feel when he hears this news?" ”

"Expected." Liu Ye sneered, "As soon as Yuan Shu dies, Yuan Yin'er is afraid of Cao Cao, and he doesn't dare to guard Shouchun anymore!" ”

Wang Chong smiled: "By the way, Ziyang, you are quite familiar with the land of Huainan, with the marching speed of the Yuan army, which is clothed in linen and filial piety and demoralized, where will it take two days?" ”

"It's almost just past Hefei, right?" Liu Ye paused as he spoke, and asked, "Why did the leader ask such a question?" ”

"I want to lead the troops to attack it halfway, what does Ziyang think?"

Liu Ye squinted his eyes and said, "What does the leader want?" ”

Wang Chong smiled: "Yuan Shu has a treasure in his hand that can make the princes of the world rush to it, and now there is a great opportunity in front of me, I should take it!" ”

Of course, Liu Ye knew that the 'treasure' in Wang Chong's mouth was the legendary jade seal, so he frowned and reminded: "This is an ominous thing, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu both died because of this thing, if the leader forcibly occupies it, I am afraid that he will become the public enemy of the world!" ”

"Ziyang, I'm afraid he misunderstood what I meant." Wang Chong said with a smile, "The heirloom jade seal is just a stone to me, what is the use of me taking it for myself?" ”

"The leader means ......"

"Give it back to the court!"

"The leader has a good plan!" Liu Ye's eyes flashed with a brilliant light, "Now Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but the lack of the jade seal of the country is difficult to call orthodoxy after all, if the leader can present the jade seal with both hands, it will just solve Cao Cao's urgent need, then Cao Cao will be in a happy mood, even if the leader is begging for Huainan, Cao Cao will not refuse!" ”

Cao Cao is now actively preparing for Yuan Shao, and he is not able to go south to attack Huainan in a short period of time, so Wang Chong used the jade seal to exchange Huainan at this time, which is just the right time, otherwise once the battle of Guandu is over, Cao Cao is afraid that he will not agree no matter what.

Wang Chong exclaimed: "Ziyang is really my confidant, and he guessed my mind so quickly!" ”

Liu Ye was shocked and said: "The leader has already thought about going to Xu Capital to exchange Huainan with the jade seal of the country?" ”

Wang Chong nodded: "Ah, if it is not recognized by the imperial court, how can I Jinfan occupy Huainan justifiably?" As for sending someone to Liu Xun's side, it was just to lower his wariness of me Jinfan, after all, he himself was just a small Lujiang Taishou, how much official position could I get from him? ”
