Puyang, a deserted house in the west of the city.

There are a few half-dead old trees in the yard, the doors and windows are old, they look very dilapidated, and when the wind blows, it makes a burst of ugly squeaks, which makes people's hearts hairy.

In a big city like Puyang, there shouldn't be such a place, but in the past two years, Puyang has experienced repeated wars, and many residents have fled, and this kind of abandoned yard has increased all of a sudden.

At this moment, the people living in the courtyard are not homeless people and beggars, but two well-dressed Confucian scholars who look like ordinary people.

"Coming?"

"Well, it's coming!"

"Yu Yanzhou, Yu Tianxia, this is the best opportunity, Gongtai, you won't just let it go lightly, right?"

"What if you don't let it go? Lu Bu has the courage and no strategy, he is obviously in danger, he can't see a way out, but he still has to hold the shelf, the Qingzhou three-way army is coming, even if he has the courage of the family, how can he break the siege? and the Zhang Mengzhuo brothers...... I don't know if someone poured soup or how, but I actually said good things about others...... You yourself said, the situation is like this, what can Chen be a person who has no fists and no bravery? ”

Faced with the questioning of his colleagues, the voice that spoke first was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "Actually, Meng De is ......."

"Hugh mentions this person!" Chen Gong snapped off and didn't let the other party continue: "It's okay for him to promote the children of the Han family, just like that Wang Yu, he has a poor background and low self-esteem, and he always consciously can't raise his head in front of famous masters, and it is understandable that his approach is more radical, so I don't care about him." But he shouldn't have killed Li and others! ”

There was an extremely disgusted look on his face: "Even if you don't mention that when he calculated Liu Gongshan, Li and the others didn't blame him, and helped him cover up his feelings, just saying that the punishment was not up to the doctor's rules, he shouldn't act like this!" The Duke of Zhou acted on behalf of the king. In the face of gossip, he was just cautious in his words and deeds, trembling, how could he harm the people who talked about him? What kind of heart is this? Cao thief will be repaid, there is no room for people, how can he be the lord of Yanzhou? ”

"Alas, Gongtai, why are you bothered? Your ambition is to be vertical and horizontal, with a tongue that does not rot in three inches. The talents of the past and the present wander among the princes and ministers, but how can they never forget these personal friendships? It must be known that Meng De was also impulsive that day, thinking that Bian Li and others were secretly in Qingzhou and were enemies of him. He regretted it afterwards. ”

Chen Gong disdained his persuasion, and said categorically: "Just let him die of this heart!" Even if Lu Bu really wants to vote for Qingzhou, he will not help the gang to abuse and help Cao Thief succeed! Yuncheng, I advise you to see this person's wolf ambition as soon as possible, and draw a clear line with it. You have tens of thousands of soldiers, the crown of the heroes, and it is because you are bent on Cao Cao that you have ended up in such a situation today. How is it that you do not repent? ”

"Alas......" Bao Nobun sighed and stopped persuading.

He encircled Cao Cao back then, mainly because of Yuan Shao's orders, although Yuan Shao did not contribute much in that battle. But what this alliance leader did was well deserved.

Wang Kuang, Zhang Miao, Bao Xin, Cao Cao, Zhang Yang, these princes all looked to him. The only ones who can compete with him in terms of fame and status are Liu Dai, Qiao Mao and Yuan Shu, but the first two were provoked by him to fight with each other, and Yuan Shu was far away in Nanyang, and his influence on Kanto was minimal.

The battle of Cheng Gao changed everything, although Cao Cao also suffered heavy losses at that time, but under the surrender of the rebels, his strength quickly surpassed that of his powerful princes. came and counted on another vote from Taishan's hometown to regroup, but Wang Yu came out again.

In this way, Bao Xin became worse and worse, and after the battle of Fenggao, he lost the old man cleanly, and he couldn't even count as a vassal, and directly became a first-class staff member.

With such a big contrast between before and after, how can he not feel desolate?

Of course, if he hadn't been so miserable now, Chen Gong, who hated Cao Cao, would not have been able to see him, but if this topic continued, Bao Xin was very worried that he would not be persuaded by Chen Gong.

However, Bao Xin's order to come east this time was not entirely for Cao Cao's orders, and his hatred for Wang Yu was his biggest motivation. After being silent for a long time, he still asked, "So, there is no way to stop this?" ”

"......" Chen Gong frowned, thought for a long time, and finally only spit out one word: "Difficult!" ”

Now in front of Lu Bujun are two roads, war or peace, although the three-way army in Qingzhou has never moved, the situation is clear. Once Lü Bu rejects Wang Yu's sincere peace talks, then wait for the war.

Although Lu Bu said everything in the army, if he refused Wang Yu's overtures without a legitimate reason, and led the Bingzhou army to a dead end, it is difficult to say how the people will choose.

Chen Gong's eloquence is indeed very good, but no matter how good it is, it is impossible for him to say black into white without words, and the skill of referring to a deer as a horse is not a tongue, but a knife.

"After all, there are still people who don't like Wang Yu, right? Can you figure out a way from them? ”

Chen Gong knew that Bao Xin was referring to Hou Cheng and Wei Xu, who were only motivated by personal grudges at the beginning, but now they are already riding tigers. Based on their previous misdeeds, after the two armies merged, there would be no good fruit to eat, so they clearly expressed their hostility to Wang Yu despite knowing the risks.

"It's not difficult to move them, even if it drives them to take risks, there is a way to think about it, the problem is, Wang Yu didn't come alone." Chen Gong pinched his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "His more than 1,000 guards are strong, and there are fierce generals like Zhao Yun and Wei Yan to protect him, even if it is Lu Bu, it must be arranged in advance, and then mobilize a large army to besiege him to have any hope of taking him, just a few Hou Cheng...... Difficult! Hard! ”

After thinking about it, he added: "Before Wang Yu had no queen, as long as he killed him, Qingzhou would be torn apart, and it would not be a problem." But now, his heir Wang Lin is half a year old, and there is no disaster or disease, even if he can really take Wang Yu, he will have to face the revenge of the Qingzhou army immediately, as long as he is not captured alive...... That is, Hou Cheng has no way out, otherwise who would be willing to die with Wang Yu? ”

Bao Xin's brows were twisted into Sichuan characters. Before leaving for Puyang, he only thought that it would be difficult to persuade Chen Gong, but when the real thing came, he found that it was actually easy to persuade Chen Gong, as long as he didn't persuade Lu Bu to take refuge in Luoyang, it would be fine. The only thing that is really tricky is Wang Yu's body.

"Is it really unthinkable? Is it really unthinkable? He rubbed his hands together and sighed.

Chen Gong hesitated again and again, and finally hesitated and said: "It's not necessarily completely impossible, it's just not easy to control......

"Oh?" Bao Xin's eyes lit up, and he urged: "Why don't you speak up if the public station has a plan? In this situation, it is better for a dead horse to be a live horse doctor. ”

As soon as he said a word, he knew that he was speechless, and quickly explained: "I can't speak." Gongtai is not strange, I mean, as long as this major event can be completed, who in the world will not dare to read the great virtue of Gongtai? He knew the good name of Chen Gong and admitted death. Just make it sound good.

"General Wei and Mrs. Yan are cousins and brothers, although Lu Bu has a strong personality, he can listen to the woman's words, Mrs. Yan has no other hobbies, only likes some jewelry, gold and jade, etc., as long as General Wei passes, it may be difficult to make Lu Bu and Wang Yu turn their faces directly. But it's still easy to put some obstacles in his way...... Besides, the young lady can also think of a way......"

Chen Gong's voice gradually lowered, but Bao Xin's eyebrows fluttered when he heard it, and he nodded again and again. Not much. He said goodbye and left, and went to the treasures that Mrs. Zhang Luoyan liked.

Looking at the back of Bao Xin leaving, Chen Gong looked blank and was silent for a long time.

Say it in good conscience. Lu Bu is still good to him, maybe he can't be called obedient. But there is still due respect. And this time, he is pushing Lu Bu to his death, but there is no way to do it, he can't let the son of the nouveau riche occupy Yanzhou so easily and shake the traditions and foundations of China for thousands of years, right?

Fortunately, this is not a dead end, relying on the strong Bingzhou army, coupled with the help of the powerful people from all over the country, it may be difficult to defeat the Qingzhou army, and it is not completely hopeless to resist for a year and a half.

As long as there is movement and turnaround in the support to the north of Xinjiang, there will be a turnaround!

……

On the other side, Wang Yu and his entourage had already arrived in Changyi, where they met Zhang Chao, who rushed to greet them.

"So, there are no more voices in the army asking for war? It's so good, it's really two uncles. ”

"It's just a piece of words, it's nothing." Zhang Chao smiled and said: "Chen Gongtai often thinks of himself as Zhang Yi and Su Qin, but in fact, he is just a person who tends to be inflammatory, but he doesn't understand that for the family, survival and continuation are the ultimate goal, and they will not invest too much in such a hopeless war......"

After meeting Wang Yu in the East China Sea, the Zhang Miao brothers returned to Yanzhou and began to preach the benefits of friendship with Qingzhou, and the news that Wang Yu decided to change his course after hearing the voice of the clan.

This was a major blow to Chen Gong and other main battle factions.

Of course, Chen Gong's influence on Lu Bu is stronger than that of Zhang Miao's brothers, but Zhang Miao is also very methodical, every time Lu Bu convenes a military meeting to mention this matter, he just leads the topic to money and grain.

Logistics supply has always been Lu Bu's biggest heart problem. When he was in Luoyang, he could still have a little spare, but after he arrived in Dongjun, he had a firm foothold, and he listened to Chen Gong's advice to treat the family well, and the result was that he had an empty pocket.

Zhang Jaw thought that the battle of Yanzhou might be resolved quickly, because Lu Bu was short of money and food, and he couldn't defend the city to the death.

As soon as Zhang Miao introduced the topic to this, Lu Bu began to worry.

Asked Chen Gong, can you collect some money and grain from the clan first, whether you fight or not, it is not a bad thing to have more money and food, is it enough confidence.

Of course Chen Gong said no, what he values most is his reputation among celebrities, and the best way to win a good reputation is undoubtedly to bring enough benefits to the clan.

As a result, Zhang Miao followed up with a question, asking Chen Gongbing how to fight without food, so he stopped him. Although he quickly reacted and said that if Qingzhou raised troops to attack in vain, the righteous soldiers in the territory would also work hard to donate food and pay for self-protection, but Lu Bu scoffed at this.

Just because he's not good at strategy doesn't mean he doesn't know how to fight.

In a war, it is important to pay attention to the fact that the army has not moved, the grain and grass go first, the fighting style of having more grain and more grain, and the fighting style of having less grain and less grain, and you don't even know how many strategic reserves you have in advance, can you fight such a war?

Because of this, Lu Bu found out that Chen Gong was eloquent, but he was still a scholar in his bones, and he was very good at talking on paper, so he couldn't play if he really started training.

So, in the end, it was the lobbying of the Zhang Miao brothers that prevailed, and Zhang Chao was officially appointed by Lu Bu to welcome him this time. This is equivalent to a formal commitment, and Wang Yu's security and the smooth progress of the negotiations are guaranteed.

"However, Madame's side seems to be a little dissatisfied with the general......" After the good news was finished, Zhang Chao changed his words and talked about the bad news.

"Ma'am?" Wang Yu was slightly stunned.

"yes." Zhang Chao nodded, and said with a hint of sigh: "Madame and General Lu have been married for twenty years, and they have always respected each other like guests. And the general ...... Ahem, it's just nothing else, the matter of the Qiao family sisters is too big, no wonder Madam is worried about ......"

"......" Wang Yu is very aggrieved and doesn't show mercy everywhere? Is this what describes Lu Bu? Don't be funny, he just didn't meet the right one, if it weren't for your future son-in-law and I snatching love, you would have been beaten into the cold palace a long time ago, well, the future son-in-law robbed the old father-in-law's junior...... It's a complicated relationship.

"Miss Lu's personality is a little ...... It was not uncommon for the lady to worry that she would be wronged when she passed through the door. Zhang Chao explained two more sentences, and he also felt awkward, so he simply made a direct conclusion: "In short, when you arrive in Puyang, the general must pay attention to safety, and do not give the young people a chance to take advantage of it. ”

Wang Yu nodded, and was about to thank him for a few words, but Wei Yan shouted on the side: "Mr. Meng Gao, you think too much, who doesn't know that my lord is suave and can be called a girl killer?" If you don't believe me, you might as well make a bet with me, and bet on whether the young lady of the Lu family will fall directly into her arms after seeing my father-in-law. ”

"......" Wang Yu is speechless, a girl killer? Which idiot did this nickname? Could it be a little more unreliable?
