Zhang Lu walked into Yangping Pass and didn't feel anything abnormal, until he entered the house prepared for him, a stranger was sitting in the hall, and the door was suddenly silent, even if Zhang Lu was careless, he guessed that this trip was probably into the bag that others had opened.

It must be lowered.

Zhang Lu himself has no intention of fighting to the death, and the reason why he came to Nanzheng is just to let Yuan Shang understand his value, and now, it may not be as he wishes, but if Yuan Shang wants to easily obtain Hanzhong and stabilize this frontier into Shu, Zhang Lu's value will always exist.

Sure enough, in less than three days, Zhang Lu, who was served with good food and drink, suddenly hung up the banner of the imperial court, the imperial court took Zhang Lu to sit in Hanzhong for many years of meritorious service, and worshiped him as the captain of Zhenyi, named him the Marquis of Langzhong, Zhang Lu's sons and brothers and subordinates also have many rewards, for taking Hanzhong, the opinions of the court are also relatively unified, of course, the so-called court is just Yuan Shang and his subordinates who control the court power, in order to let Zhang Lu surrender with peace of mind, such a reward, for a descendant, it is already rare and rich, not only worshiped the rank of colonel who was only inferior to the general, but also gave him the title Hou, which is really eye-catching.

Yuan Shang rewarded Zhang Lu, naturally there will be no benefits, Zhang Lu has been the emperor of Hanzhong for the past 30 years, when it comes to the familiarity with this land, he dares to say second, no one dares to admit the first, his prestige in Hanzhong is indeed no one can control, with his assistance, in these few days, the fortresses and counties in Hanzhong basically surrendered, with Zhang Lu's example, Yuan Shangdian sent officials at all levels did not cause much twists and turns. For the officials of the original counties. The Intelligence Service has already drawn up a list. sent to Tian Feng, the good reputation and the capable and infamous will be reflected on the list, as for how to use it, whether it will be used, Tian Feng knows it in his heart.

On the premise that local officials will not be complained, the three fires of the new officials will definitely burn, and the key is how to burn. And how to satisfy both parties, this point needs to be thought about by the old Tian Feng, and this is no longer what Yuan Shang, as the head of the group, needs to worry about.

Taking Hanzhong really made Yuan Shang happy, and even more so happy that the happy event of placing the celebration banquet in the General's Mansion will naturally not be light.

The last gray area of Jizhou, the Bohai State, has completely fallen, and Yuan Tan, who once forced Yuan Shang to go away and merge with the state, is on the way to escort Shangjing, the entire four states of Hebei, except for Qingzhou. has all fallen into the hands of Yuan Shang, and Yuan Shang's general trend has been achieved. Historically, Cao Wei's territory is Yuan Shang's sphere of influence at this time, and even, Yuan Shang is more aggressive than Cao Cao, Cao Cao in history has experienced a great injury after the Battle of Chibi, but Yuan Shang is relatively speaking, along the way, it is quite safe, and has not experienced much blow, so the soldiers are strong and strong, and the momentum of sweeping the world is that Huangkou children can see it.

It's just that it was too late to be happy, Yuan Shang, who was drinking with Zhang Hetian Feng and Ju Yijin Million and others, received two pieces of information at the same time, each message was embellished with red seals, and after browsing them one by one, Yuan Shang's face was gloomy and terrifying.

"Gongsun Kang"

Yuan Shang's eyes were as cold as a blade, and the first piece of information in his hand was put down, and someone had already handed the information to the civil and military forces in the hall.

After everyone browsed one by one, their faces changed slightly, and among the generals, all of them showed murderous intentions.

According to the intelligence record, Liaodong Gongsun Kang, taking advantage of the emptiness of Youzhou's troops, joined forces with Liaoxi Wuheng leader Bandun Xing 100,000 troops, sneak attack on the right Beiping County where Shan Jing was stationed, Shan Jing had few soldiers, and was finally besieged to death, his command of 15,000 elites, all killed, no one survived, Badun and Gongsun Kang joined forces in Youzhou to loot all over Youzhou, killing the officials and generals sent by Yuan Shang, in less than two days, Youzhou basically collapsed across the line, due to the lack of soldiers and horses, there are only a few important cities in Youzhou and still hold on, As far as the information from the intelligence department is concerned, the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Badun and Gongsun Kang have advanced into Fanyang County, burning and looting all the way, it is the autumn harvest season, and the production of Youzhou has also been greatly damaged.

"It was a premeditated rebellion."

Frustrated and said coldly: "On weekdays, Gongsun Kang doesn't dare to let out a fart, but now the main force of our army stationed in Youzhou has participated in the battle to encircle and suppress Yuan Tan, this guy jumped out on time, and I think I have long been ready to completely tear my face with the lord." ”

"And Na Ratun"

The frustrated voice was even colder: "Back then, it was like there was no old lord to support him, how could he have the power he has in Wuheng today, the ambition of the wolf, there is no morality to talk about, this person should be killed." ”

When Yuan Shang heard this, his eyes were also very cold, but he didn't say anything, but passed on the second piece of information.

This time, once again, it made waves.

Jingzhou Liu Biao just died, everyone still thought that the war in Jingzhou would spread for a while, but they didn't expect that Sun Ce's speed was much faster than Cao Liu, with the assistance of Zhou Yu and others, Sun Ce grabbed ahead of Cao and Liu's two families with lightning speed, and deeply dug up half of Jingzhou's country, and Cao and Liu families were helpless, in order to preserve their troops, after negotiations, in the end, Cao and Liu each took away two counties, which can be regarded as a small gain.

And on the second day after the three families carved up Jingzhou, the threat from Yuan Shang actually allowed the three families who had always been fighting openly and secretly to join forces, and the second piece of information handed over by the intelligence department described that Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce exchanged messengers and completed the meeting in Nanjun, and the specific details of the cooperation between the three are not known, but in general, it is about sharing troops and resources with each other to achieve the goal of containing Yuan Shang, which will not be much different.

The faces of everyone in the hall went from gloomy to solemn, if the first news did not make them feel so troublesome, and the latter had already made them frown.

Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Ce, any of them, is not an easy generation, the current three join forces, if it is only about the strength of the army, it can already be not inferior to Yuan Shang, and in terms of the vastness of the territory, it is roughly the same, just a simple comparison now, the two sides can be said to be evenly matched.

"The three families joining forces are indeed not to be underestimated, but if the three can cooperate perfectly, the subordinates would rather die than believe it." Tian Feng pondered for a moment and groaned.

"Go on." Yuan Shang touched his chin lightly and said indifferently.

"From the perspective of subordinates, although it is difficult for the three families to join forces, it is also a good opportunity for the lord, as long as it is operated properly, there will be no lot of resistance to sweeping the three forces in the future."

"Oh?"

Yuan Shang's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he said, "Tell me your opinion." ”

Tian Feng nodded slightly, and his pale hair shook slightly, but he heard him say: "Instead of weakening their strength one by one, it is better to let them weaken once and for all, and now the three families are joining forces, although it is a little tricky for the lord, but it is also an opportunity, the battle for the world is nothing more than borrowing and using the momentum, and now the lord's power is increasing day by day, there is no need to borrow the situation, as for how to use the power, the lord and the generals need to consider together." ”

Yuan Shang nodded, he already understood what Tian Feng was trying to express.

Steady and steady, with a strong momentum, the three soldiers and horses were defeated in one fell swoop, and the most direct and brutal way of fighting the war rolled up a large-scale battle, just like Cao Cao went south according to the north in history.

It's just that now is not the best time to go south, at least, Yuan Shang thinks so.

There is chaos in Youzhou, Jizhou has just fallen, not to mention Shudi, 100,000 soldiers and horses will not be able to come out in the short term, under the premise of instability in the rear, Yuan Shang's risk is extremely large, if it is successful, it is easy to say, if it fails, the consequences are very serious.

He doesn't want to walk like Cao Cao in history, what if the three families join forces, as long as Yuan Shang walks a little slower, walks a little steady, and destroys them, it will be a matter of time, and at present, in his opinion, the most important thing is to pull out the weeds in the backyard first.

"Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce let go of the three families first, just keep an eye on it, in a short period of time, the other party should not have any big moves, but Jizhou has just been internally unstable, and the general is worried that Cao Cao's princes will take the opportunity to intervene, which has to be guarded against." Yuan Shang said in a deep voice.

The judge, who had just been transferred back to Chang'an from Jinyang recently, stood up and said: "Relying on the two generals Lu Bu and Zhu Ling alone, it is difficult for Jizhou to be stable, it is better to go through the previous general with both civil and military skills, it will be more or less safe, and it is better to prevent Cao Cao and others from taking the opportunity to attack." ”

"As for the matter of Youzhou, the subordinates proposed to let Gao Shun and Zangba lead troops to quell the rebellion, then Gongsun Kang and Ban Dun are just a group of rabble, with these two veterans personally leading the troops, the rebellion in Youzhou is just a breeze."

When Yuan Shang heard this, after thinking for a while, he looked at Zhang He and said: "The matter of Jizhou, there is General Lao Junyi to take a trip, and it is not a big problem to gather 20,000 elite soldiers from Sili, if you count the troops on hand of the two generals Lu Bu and Zhu Ling, there are 80,000, which should be enough to deter that group of Xiaoxiao." ”

When Zhang He, who was at the bottom, heard this, he got up and said, "Huh." ”

Yuan Shang waved his hand and motioned for Zhang He to sit down, and those eyes gradually condensed with murderous intent.

"Also..."

Everyone saw the cold glint that flashed in Yuan Shang's eyes, but they heard his voice and said coldly: "General Chuan Ben ordered Gao Shun Zang Ba to go to Youzhou to quell the rebellion, and he will not accept any surrender." ”

More than a dozen people present trembled in their hearts, after a few years, it was the first time to see Yuan Shang's murderous intent so strong, thinking about it, the rebellion of Gongsun Kang and Dun Xingbing in Youzhou had completely annoyed Yuan Shang, and he had been dormant for a few years, it seemed that many people had forgotten that Yuan Shang himself was also a military general, and his iron-blooded tough style did not disappear with the rise of power.

Everyone retreated, only Yuan Shang looked sideways at the south, the light in his eyes flickered, standing beside him Yuan Cheng didn't dare to make a sound, at this moment, his father gave him the feeling, like the lone wolf raised in the backyard, was opening his bloody mouth, those eyes, seemed to be filled with a trace of redness, that bloody feeling made him shudder.
