Chapter 7 The Initial Goal

The negotiation with Liu Yan or Liu Zhang is simpler than Liu Biao.

Although Liu Zhang is already 30 years old, it is only in the past two years that he has begun to help Liu Yan deal with the government affairs of Yizhou. The family background does give him a good knowledge and culture, and even includes a certain amount of political wisdom, but in the end he is still a little immature.

Yu Xing followed Fang Yun and came all the way from Ruyin's side, and after integrating into the martial spirits of the three diplomatic talents, Yu Xing's negotiation ability and debating ability directly exploded. At least under Fang Yun's command, even Chen Lin didn't dare to debate with him. What really reassured Fang Yun that he would come over was his LVMAX 'flattery' skill.

This skill is definitely a must for a courtier, and he can always bring the monarch supreme vanity and satisfaction.

Flattery is as much a technique as it is an art. It's not like constant sycophants saying good things is flattery, the Tao inside is very complicated, and it is even more difficult than mastering the knowledge of three or four traditions.

Different objects have different ways of flattering, and Yu Xing takes flattery to the extreme.

With superb diplomatic skills and debate skills, Liu Zhang even came back to his senses and found that he had signed an alliance agreement with Fang Yun. The agreement stated that Fang Yun could send troops to help him crusade against Zhang Lu's forces in Hanzhong. There is also the joint construction of a highway from Hanzhong to the interior of Bashu.

As for trade or something, Liu Zhang gave the green light, although there was no such thing as a green light this year.

Yu Xing sent a lot of gifts, but when he left, he took more gifts in return. Liu Yan died of illness on the third day after leaving, and I don't know if he was angry with Liu Zhang. If so, then Yu Xing would be able to mourn Liu Yan for three seconds at most.

Diplomacy. In fact, it is also a battlefield. Yu Xing has always believed in this.

Fortunately, Liu Zhang is not a person who does not believe in his word. After Liu Yan's funeral was held, several trading areas were still opened in Yizhou as agreed, and at the same time, people were sent to survey the route and determine the location of the highway construction.

He is not without benefits at all, at least the edict from the imperial court has been sent to him, which is the edict that approves him to trust the history of Yizhou. I can't say that the reason why Liu Yan died of illness was because this edict finally came to his son's hands, and he had nothing to regret, right?

Again. Liu Yan was over 60 years old at the time, which was actually considered a joy and mourning at that time. Otherwise, the age of 70 would not be called 'ancient and rare'.

The contact of the four assassins has been completed, and with the conclusion of the covenant, Fang Yun has also completed the main task of the system.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the main quest - long-distance melee attack, charm +10 points, and 1 gold-level draw."

"New main quest is being generated, please ...... later"

"The main quest - worries. Mission Description: Your main goal at present is to unify China, but when you set your sights on the Central Plains princes, have you ever forgotten that there is another prince in Liaodong? After years of recuperation. Gongsun Du has regained his combat effectiveness and has long been gearing up. Waiting to pick up the cheap behind the back of the princes of the Central Plains.

Mission: Kill or capture Gongsun Du and completely disintegrate his power in Liaodong; Extra Missions: Massacre them or relocate the people of Goryeo to live inland, or migrate large numbers of Han Chinese to dilute their bloodline. This task is set by the maker of this system, and it is a very inexplicable task; Rewards: 10 points each for Force and Domination, and a gold draw. Bonus Quest Rewards: The programmer doesn't set any rewards, just a 'you know' message. ”

When the system gave the prompt, Fang Yun was actually eating. At the end of hearing the prompt, I almost choked on the food in my mouth, and finally relieved myself.

He didn't know who designed this magical system, but he only felt that this kind of thing that could actually improve his ability and also be able to materialize various materials was actually a creator-level existence.

It's just such a high-end existence, and when arranging this task, there will be such a spoof of extra tasks. Should it be said that it makes people speechless? Or is this designer really a better fellow believer......

Legend has it that in the past, when King Wu was defeated, a small number of remnants of Yin Shang were unwilling to be the subjects of the Zhou Dynasty, so they took refuge in the bitter cold land of Liaodong. Later, King Yingzheng of Qin unified China, and there were also remnants of the Six Kingdoms who did not want to be Qin people, and fled to Liaodong, which has the basis for the existence of the people in Liaodong today. As for whether there are still ethnic groups in the local area, Fang Yun doesn't know anyway, and he doesn't pay attention to this.

I just thought that in the future, since I would even have to go up to the island to visit, then the area in Liaodong, together with the Goguryeo side, would simply be taken over. From there, it may be easier to go south and attack Wajima.

Looking back at his attributes, Fang Yun was also taken aback by his current attributes: Tianwu 135, Tianhui 150, Tianyu 143, Tianmei 151. The rewards of these main quests are very generous, and even the attribute increases very quickly.

Not to mention, this main quest, let's not talk about whether or not there is an extra quest to be performed. Just talking about the inherent task rewards, force and domination can be increased by another 10 points, and it will not be too difficult to break through the Baodan in your lifetime.

The prompt of the system is very timely, Liaodong is too remote and bitter cold, so that in recent years, the courtiers have selectively forgotten the existence there, and even forgot that there is a Gongsun Du in Liaodong.

But even if it is a cat, scratching a few paws or biting a few bites when it has a seizure, it is very painful. Even if the injury is not serious, it will be very unpleasant, especially since this cat has hooked up with another jackal!

It was that night, through the Han Soul Organization, Fang Yun learned that it seemed that Gongsun Du had indeed sent people to the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes frequently recently, and he didn't know what to do.

Because they are not cronies, there is no way for the people of the Han Soul Organization to investigate further, and on the side of Wuhuan and Xianbei people, because of the difference in race, the Han Soul Organization has no way to infiltrate at all.

It's just certain that this guy and the forces of Wuhuan and Xianbei are eye-catching, and they are uneasy and kind at first glance.

Not even if it's innocent. One doesn't know the depth. Forces that do not belong to their jurisdiction exist. This in itself is the greatest original sin. Even if Gongsun Du ends up with a ruined family, it is also his ignorance that causes the evil consequences.

After all, the two thorns of Xuzhou and Qingzhou have already directly ceded the state. He is only too guarded in Liaodong, but he is in a key area but does not know how to be interesting, which is no less than death. A gentleman is successful. The beauty of man should be able to get his wish!

Spring ploughing has begun, and this is not only a major event on Fang Yun's side, but also the princes of other states and counties are also busy.

Especially Yuan Shu and Sun Ce, who suffered a catastrophe last year. It is also actively replanting grain and striving for a good harvest this year. Affected by last year's locust plague, the two of them are afraid that they will not be able to start a war this year.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao, according to the most accurate information, officially want to establish several universities this year to cultivate talents for themselves. Fang Yun's priority is to open a university and create a civil service system, which has reaped great benefits, which is a tangible result.

No matter what era is lacking, who doesn't want a few more talents to be able to choose and hire the best? The two princes are afraid that they will not send troops this year. But they had to be ready at all times, and suddenly faced with the situation that they attacked at the same time!

Presently. Fang Yun's command deducted the Liangzhou and Yongzhou guarded by the Ma clan, and there were 350,000 troops.

Among them, 50,000 troops were stationed in the northern frontier, which was the basic number that was necessary, who allowed him to occupy the vast north, so that his rule was directly bordered by the Hu people in the north. On a huge defensive line, 50,000 people is actually a very small number.

Even so, it is very easy to be defeated by the enemy, so it is necessary to increase the size to 100,000 by this year.

There are 100,000 in Sizhou and Jizhou, about 50,000 in Youzhou, and the last 100,000 in Qingzhou and Xuzhou. It is such an army of 300,000 people, which has already been distributed in three or two. If it is gathered together, no matter where the defense is, it will definitely be an iron bucket-level defense line.

However, if they are scattered, even if there are historical generals to lead the army, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be broken by the enemy.

In other words, if it is against Gongsun Du this time, then the number of people who can be mobilized is about 20,000 people. According to the latest news, Gongsun Du's army has recovered to 30,000 and has made some progress in science and technology. Especially the stirrups and horseshoes, the cavalry and archers under his command, almost all of them were armed.

Liaodong was originally a bitter cold place, and locusts naturally did not fly over, but last year's locust plague had nothing to do with him. After a year, I harvested a lot of food, and then I had the capital to start a war.

Or was he just recruiting to prevent Xianbei and Wuhuan? After all, last year, the two places were hit by a snowstorm, and last month, in the auspicious month, there was even a situation where the Hu people went south to take refuge, and even used expensive horses to buy grain.

As the so-called concern is chaos, Fang Yun's intelligence has reached 150 points, but he doesn't know how to make a decision. Guo Jia and Jia Xu came over and asked for countermeasures.

"Lord, you might as well salute first and then soldier. Gongsun Du is quite courageous, and he has indeed done nothing wrong in Liaodong over the years. The last thing that should be done is to collude with the Wuhuan people to occupy Liaoxi County, and we will repair it. After that, the performance was decent, and it seemed that he only wanted to be the emperor of the territory, and he had no intention of expanding the territory.

In that case, why not call him over and arrange for him to take up the post of taishou in another place, and promise that he will only be promoted to an assassin's position, or even higher, in his lifetime, without worrying about being demoted? As long as he really just wants to live comfortably, then he will give up his military power, but the lord has one more virtuous person to govern the place, why not?

Not to mention that his two sons are in our hands, isn't he afraid that we will kill them?

If he is really hard-hearted, he will give us an excuse to go east. It's just the lord, Jia is very puzzled why the lord is proposing to attack Liaodong at this time? Know that the messengers who went to the four princes and delivered the covenant had not yet returned.

Besides, Liaodong is bitterly cold and barren, and there is no output in the first place, even if we win Liaodong, it will not benefit us. As the prime minister, Guo Jia naturally actively offered advice to Fang Yun, but at the same time, he also expressed his doubts.

"Although Liaodong is bitterly cold, the land is very fertile, which has been explored through the shadows. At the very least, it is still possible to grow one crop of wheat a year, as well as miscellaneous grains, and the people who migrate there do not have to worry about food problems. Furthermore, although Gongsun Du seems harmless, he disobeys discipline in Liaodong for a day, which is like a thorn in the back, so that I can't focus on the four princes of the Central Plains, this feeling is quite unpleasant! Fang Yun also directly analyzed, in fact, he was saying his thoughts.

"Since Liaodong is not so barren, there is nothing wrong with fighting it." Guo Jia naturally didn't want to say anything at the moment.

Just because he could see that Fang Yun had already made up his mind to go east, so why be a villain in vain?! (To be continued......)

PS: The political matter is over, and the rest is the military aspect, and the goal given by the system is the Gongsun Du of Liaodong.
