"That's not necessarily, what is the strength of Liu Guanzhang under Gongsun Zhan, you should know the Dao, if Liu Yu is defeated, you will be next, and you will be able to block it when the time comes? What's more, the elite of the White Horse under the command of Gongsun Zhan, no matter how elite the soldiers are, it is difficult to withstand its offensive. ”

Wei Tao also smiled coldly, stared at Zhang Ning and said slowly.

"If you want to do something, just say it, it's not interesting to hide it like this."

"Okay, I want to borrow generals, how about you lend Zhou Yu, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun to defend against Yuan Shao?"

Zhang Ning was also direct enough, just hearing her words, even Wei Tao felt his face beating for a while.

"Loan?"

Wei Tao smiled coldly and didn't want to say much at all, Zhou Yu and the three of them were all handsome and talented, how could they borrow at will?

"If you want to use your subordinates to resist Yuan Benchu, it's a good idea to fight, not to mention anything else, just as this matter comes out, I'm afraid that Yuan Benchu wants to hate my lord to death, but it is indeed a good calculation."

At this time, Xun You just spoke.

"Bingzhou is adjacent to Jizhou, if Yuan Benchu fights with my lord first, and then you can sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman, it is a good calculation."

Hearing this, Zhang Ning's face remained unchanged, but when he turned his head to look at Xun You, his face was a little more cautious.

"Who is this gentleman?"

"In Xia Xun Yu Xun Gongda, there is no one under the main account. Today's chaos is in turmoil, wars are raging, Gongsun Zhan is fighting in Youzhou, Yuan Shao is fighting in Jizhou, Cao Cao is attacking in Xuzhou, and it is impossible for my lord to sit still. The generals have their own uses. How can we borrow it? ”

Xun You's face was always calm. Slowly.

"What if the city is changed? If you can borrow the power of the three of us, Shangdang and other county towns, my Montenegrin army should all withdraw, and then hand it over to Lord Wei. ”

Zhang Ning didn't say anything else, and said directly as soon as he opened his mouth.

"If you have to go to the party and other counties, and then with the power of your Wei Ziyu, it will only be in the middle of a while, and you will only have a while, even Yuan Shao will not dare to start a war lightly. And I have to be only for Yuan Shao. The battle will never stop. You can still sit back and watch me and Yuan Shao succeed or fail and then seek their benefits, so what should you do? ”

"One city for another?"

Wei Tao smiled slightly, and then shook his head.

"How can the talents of Gongjin, Wenyuan, and Zilong reach this? Needless to say, please come back. Now that you have also received an official position in the imperial court, you hope that you will do it yourself. ”

Such a transaction-like thing, how could Wei Tao be for it?

Aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of Zhou Yu and others?

"You ......"

Zhang Ning gritted his teeth vigorously, but finally took out a letter and handed it to Wei Tao.

"This is what Zhou Yu gave you, the idea of helping us was first proposed by him, there is no problem now!"

"Is Gong Jin wanting to do this?"

Wei Tao was slightly stunned, and immediately took the letter, he really didn't expect that it would be Zhou Yu's meaning.

"Brother should know what I mean when he sees the letter. Yuan Shao IV and the third duke. The family background is deep, and it is difficult to compete with it. Although the strength of the Montenegrin army is not weak. However, it is not enough to compete with it, but it is also helpful to it. If you want to defeat Yuan Shao, the Montenegrin army needs our help, we will fight against Yuan Shao here, and my brother will unify and merge the state, so that he can compete with Yuan Shao now, and the three parties will stand together in due course, each with its own ability. ”

The letter is not long, and it is not too complicated, but after reading it, Wei Tao felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

"Gongjin, Wenyuan, and Zilong, why do you need to be like this!"

Seeing the curious eyes cast by Xun You on the side, Wei Tao thought about it for a while, and still handed the letter in his hand to Xun You.

"Lord, I'm afraid that Zhou Gongjin and the three of them are already helping Montenegro."

First thanked Wei Tao, then Xun You read it carefully, and after a while, Xun You sighed.

Zhou Gongjin would rather tarnish his name than help the lord, and the lord must not waste a piece of his mind in vain, that is, he agreed to this matter. I'm afraid that at this time, even if the lord resists him with faith, I am afraid it will not help. ”

Wei Tao was speechless again, and it took a long time before he sighed.

"Gongjin, Wenyuan, and Zilong are all my brothers! Let it be like this, how can I be at ease? ”

"Humph! What you say, as long as you wait for my Montenegrin army to defeat Yuan Shao, seize Jizhou, and be the princes of one side in the name of the right, at that time they are just obedient to the sky, where will there be any self-defilement? ”

Regarding Wei Tao and Xun You's opinions, Zhang Ning was very dissatisfied.

In the eyes of Wei Tao and Xun You, the Black Mountain Army is the Yellow Turban Remnant Party, although Zhou Yu and the three of them are helping Wei Tao, but they can be regarded as joining the thief army, and they will not be infamous in the future.

But in the eyes of people like Zhang Ning, who are determined to overthrow the Han Dynasty and build another country, Zhou Yu and others are naturally not thieves, and even Zhang Ning still wants to use this to win over Zhou Yu and others for his own use.

If not, Zhang Ning would not have bothered with Wei Tao before.

"This matter is set, for a period of one year, if Gong Jin and the others return, you can't stop it, if there is a block, no matter how difficult I am, there will be a battle with your Black Mountain Army!"

"Humph!"

Zhang Ning snorted coldly.

"I won't stop it, but sooner or later, my Montenegrin Army will still have a battle, don't forget that your Wei Ziyu is also the enemy of my Montenegrin Taiping Army!"

If it weren't for Zhang Ning's mention of Wei Tao at this time, he would have really forgotten it, and the former Digong general Zhang Liang would have died in his own hands.

However, Wei Tao didn't want to talk nonsense with Zhang Ning anymore, so he picked up the tea bowl and said directly.

"Someone, send off!"

Zhang Ning glanced at Wei Tao seriously, and then turned around and left with Zhang Niujiao and the four of them.

"Mr. Gongda, I don't know if you still have anything to say?"

Although Wei Tao was a little unclear, he still did according to Xun You's instructions after thinking about it, and now that Zhang Ning is leaving, he naturally wants to ask for an understanding.

"Since this Zhang Ning will come with his subordinates, it is obvious that someone in the battle ahead is blocking Yuan Shao's soldiers. If there are such figures in the Montenegrin army, why do you need to ask for generals? This must have been done by the three of Gong Jin. ”

Hearing Xun You's words, Wei Tao nodded slightly. This is something that Wei Tao didn't expect.

"Since the three of them are talented, they still do so. Naturally, there is a deep meaning. One is to block Yuan Shao's unification of Jizhou. The second is to hone elite soldiers for the main public, and the soldiers who have not seen the battle formation are not elite soldiers, and the third is probably to subdue the Montenegrin army for the main public. ”

"Conquer the Black Mountain Army?"

Wei Tao can naturally think of the first two points, but Wei Tao can't think of the last point.

"Yes, the Montenegrin Army developed from the Yellow Turban Army in the past, and the Yellow Turban Army swept the world in the past, and its foundation was naturally not weak. If you can get the Montenegrin army and subdue it, then the lord's ambition will be easier to achieve. ”

Xun You nodded and said with certainty.

"The Black Mountain Army was developed from the Yellow Turban Army, and Mr. also knew that the general of the land was killed under my hands, and I also killed a lot of Yellow Turban thieves in the Yellow Turban disaster, and I am afraid that there is a lot of hatred in his heart."

Wei Tao shook his head, a little incredulous.

"If only that's it, after all, times have changed. The hatred of the past can also be let go, but Zhang Ning and others are determined to overthrow the Han world. And my only ambition is to protect my Han from the suffering of foreign invasion, so how can I be able to subdue such ambitions? ”

"What Gong Jin is thinking about is not to subdue Zhang Ning and others, but to subdue those other ordinary people, even if Zhang Ning and others are indeed unwilling to invest in the Han, but are others also unwilling? In the final analysis, the scourge of the Yellow Turban in the past was only because ordinary people were unable to live before it broke out. ”

Xun You deserves to be a wise man in the world, but he has seen this thing very thoroughly.

And if you think about this matter carefully, you will find that it is not that there is no chance at all.

"That's it, that's it. In the past, I had already entrusted all the affairs of Changshan County to Gong Jin, but now that Gong Jin has made this decision, I should support it. ”

Wei Tao shook his head after the most reluctance and didn't say anything more.

"I believe that Gong Jin will live up to my expectations."

I have to say that this time Zhang Ning was indeed very obedient, only after leaving that day, he ordered all the Montenegrin troops originally stationed in Shangdang and other counties to leave, and then handed over all the Shangdang and other counties to the people sent by Wei Tao.

In addition, Hanoi, which was originally controlled by Wei Tao, all of a sudden, one-third of the state fell into the hands of Wei Tao, and now Wei Tao's army can be said to be the strongest in the state.

Even if there is no need to set an example, it has already been decided what will be the most important attribution in this state.

The Taishou of the counties is not a stupid person, naturally it is impossible to really resist Wei Tao to the end, he has his own strength, and he also has great righteousness in hand, it can be said that Wei Tao has the conditions to unify the entire state at this time.

"Lord, please again, I believe that this time the Taishou will not dare to refuse at will, as long as the support of the counties, and the unification of the state is in sight, and then the power of the integration and state, the ambition of the lord is expected."

Xun Yu said it again at the moment, and Wei Tao followed his words.

It's a pity that the result this time surprised Wei Tao even more, half of the banquet sent out this time didn't reply at all, and the remaining half of the people couldn't tell each other.

"Why is that?"

Wei Tao was naturally puzzled, but soon, Wei Tao got the answer.

Wenhou Lu Bu.

Since Chang'an was defeated and fled, Lu Bu has not returned to Chang'an, and now that Chang'an has been occupied by Li Xun and others, Lu Bu naturally dare not go back.

It can be said that although Wenhou Lu Bu is still famous, there is no place for him, and after experiencing Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, who else in the world dares to subdue Lu Bu, a tiger?

Under such circumstances, Lu Bu led the regrouped generals back to the state.

Bingzhou was once led by Ding Yuan, and Lu Bu was the righteous son of Ding Yuan, and more importantly, when Lu Bu was in the past, he repelled the offended Xiongnu several times, and protected the state from being invaded by the Xiongnu for several years.

Therefore, Lu Bu has great prestige in Bingzhou.

Now that Lu Bu has returned, naturally there are Taishou who are unwilling to obey Wei Tao who choose to take refuge in Lu Bu, and even if the rest of the people are unwilling to take refuge in Lu Bu, they are not willing to take refuge in Wei Tao at this time.

Although his reputation is not good, Lu Bu is still recognized as the world's number one general.

"I didn't expect it to be Lu Fengxian's return, no wonder it would be like this."

Wei Tao shook his head slightly, although he was helpless about this result, it was not unacceptable.

"I'm afraid there will inevitably be another battle between me and Feng Xian."

Wei Tao doesn't remember what history has been, at most he remembers that Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou later, and then was defeated in Xuzhou.

The history that is already unreliable naturally cannot be used as a basis, and now that Lu Bu has arrived, with Lu Bu's temperament, unless he takes refuge in Lu Bu, it is inevitable that there will be a battle between the two.

How is it possible to take refuge in Lu Bu?

Although Wei Tao also had the idea of taking refuge in Cao Cao, he also thought that Cao Cao would unify the north, and Cao Cao's ambition was the same as his ambition to exterminate foreign races and prevent the Wuhu rebellion.

Not to mention that now Wei Tao himself is also the ruling party, this idea is a little lighter.

Just talking about Lu Buqi is not the master, how can Wei Tao be willing to take refuge?

"What the lord said is true, and I'm afraid Lu Bu has also received the help of a strategist this time."

Xun You nodded slightly, but said something that made Wei Tao a little surprised.

"If it is based on Lu Bu's previous temperament, I am afraid that he will not take the lord to heart, and he must raise troops to Hanoi to force the lord to surrender, if he does not submit, he will definitely forcibly attack the city, and he will be determined in one fell swoop. What he is doing now is to win over the counties and cut off the help our army received in Hanoi, which is like cutting off my arm. If there is no superior person to guide him, how can he act like this with Lu Bu's temperament? ”

"I know the Tao alone."

Wei Tao nodded, and after being silent for a while, he said.

"The last time I saw me, I once said to him, in the past, Meng De once met someone, surnamed Chen Minggong, the word Gongtai, and his person was quite strategic. However, later Chen Gong thought that Meng Defei was the master, so he left. At that time, Meng De once said that this person was very likely to be in Bingzhou, and now that Lu Bu is so abnormal, I am afraid that he has the help of the Chen Palace. ”

Wei Tao's words are not true, the reason why he knows that Chen Gong is naturally because Wei Tao is a human being, but in Wei Tao's opinion, I am afraid that in addition to Chen Gong, there will not be many wise people who are willing to vote for Lu Bu.

"Chen Gong? I've heard of this man's reputation, and if it were, it would be trouble. Although Lu Bu is brave, he has no strategy, he can take advantage of it, if he gets the help of Chen Gong, he will be like a tiger with wings. If you want to win again, I am afraid that it will not be easy. ”

Xun You also frowned slightly.

"If that's the case, it's a bit inappropriate to let Zhou Gongjin and the three of them help the Black Mountain Army before. Now that Dian Wei is the only one here, I don't know if Lu Dao can defeat Lu Bu? ”

But Xun You subconsciously excluded Wei Tao, and in Xun You's opinion, Wei Tao still didn't go into battle to kill the enemy in person.

If you calculate it like this, I'm afraid it's really not easy to resist Lu Bu. (To be continued......)
