Chapter 173: Jizhou (4)
Needless to say, the process of the two fighting, even if Chen Zhi suppressed his own strength, he still won steadily against the inexperienced Zhang He. However, from Zhang He's devastated appearance, it is not difficult to see that Chen Zhi is a stunned young man who has not experienced any blows, but this has not affected Chen Zhi's optimism about Zhang He. Although Zhang He undoubtedly lost to himself, Zhang He's potential is obviously more than that, there are too many deliberate between Zhang He's moves today, that is, Zhang He is still stuck in the degree of sticking to the moves, but once he has experienced the experience of real blood and tears, all people will inevitably wash away these flashy things, and at that time Zhang He also had the capital to compete with himself, but now, Zhang He can only swallow this failure and leave.
And after Zhang He left, Guo Jia also walked down from upstairs, looked at Chen Zhi and said with a smile: "What does this Uncle Zhang He think?" Chen Zhi exhaled a long breath and then smiled: "In time, it will become a great tool, but now it is difficult to take on a big responsibility." Guo Jia nodded and chuckled when he heard this: "It's just as I expected, how much has Uncle Zhi learned?" Chen Zhi shook his head when he heard this and said: "You don't have to learn anything, Zhang Junyi's moves are quite famous, and he is obviously a famous teacher, but it is also very easy to recognize, and it is not difficult to learn." β
Guo Jia smiled when he heard this: "That's fine, then now we just have to wait for Guan Chun to execute the plan." β
Chen Zhi naturally has no opinion, but at this time, the situation in Jizhou has changed again, and some people in the market of Yecheng have begun to deliberately spread the news that Yuan Shao may become the master, so it is not difficult for Guo Jia to guess that for these clans in Yecheng, Han Fu has already made them very dissatisfied, otherwise there is no need to be so impatient to expose Yuan Shao's intentions so quickly. But even so, Guo Jia still doesn't plan to make a move right away. Now is not the best time, not to mention the situation on Yuan Shao's side. Guo Jia is most worried about his calculations being discovered, after all, Yecheng still has such a well-known strategist.
Just after Guo Jia lived in the Hero Building for three days, Guan Chun finally came to look for Guo Jia again. However, Guo Jianeng could see that this time was probably not good news, and sure enough, the news brought by Guan Chun was that most of the officials in Yecheng had fallen to Yuan Shao's side, especially led by Xin Pingfu and others, which caused a huge obstacle to Guan Chun's intention to persuade Han Fu. Therefore, the purpose of Guan Chun's trip was to hope that through Guo Jia's persuasion, Han Fu could give up his plan to ask for help from Yuan Shao, of course, he also wasted a lot of effort to make Han Fu willing to meet Guo Jia immediately.
And Guo Jia also expected that he would inevitably need to do such a thing, although he never had any expectations for Guan Chun, but the one-sided situation in the upper echelons of Yecheng still made Guo Jia feel huge pressure, as an outsider, and even possibly an opponent, the situation he had to face might be worse than he imagined. It is not even ruled out that some officials in Jizhou will get rid of themselves behind their backs in order to force Han Fu to accept Yuan Shao. Although Guo Jia is so worried, there are not many options now, and it is imperative to meet Han Fu. But the timing and manner are yet to be discussed.
Guan Chun has no opinion, after all, Guo Jia can be regarded as helping him this time, so naturally he can't ignore it, but Guo Jia knows in his heart that there are only a handful of things that the new driver in front of him can do, but at least he needs to ensure that he can say a few words for himself. Guo Jia is very confident in his eloquence, although he has never beaten Xu Ji in tongue arguments on weekdays, but in fact, his tongue argument skills are far superior to Xu Ji's, and Xu Ji is more proficient in plotting his heart.
Guan Chun was indeed surprised by Guo Jia's simple request, but this was exactly what he wanted. Originally, Guan Chun was worried that Guo Jia would not be able to convince Han Fu at that time, and he would implicate himself because Guo Jia angered Han Fu in the future. But now he can easily get rid of it, so Guan Chun naturally has no reason to refuse, so the plan is set, and the time is tomorrow. Guan Chun would say that Han Fu summoned people to discuss Gongsun Zhan's intention to attack, and that was when Guo Jia went to ask for a meeting.
And after Ji Lu demarcated, there was naturally nothing to say, and Guan Chun also went to find Han Fu by himself. Guo Jia also began to prepare, and through Zhang Gu's intelligence network, Guo Jia learned that Han Fu would have a batch of grain and grass to be sent to Yuan Shao tomorrow. So this batch of grain and grass is impossible to say in Yuan Shao's hands, of course, in order to act more like it, it is bound not to be looted near the left side of Yecheng. However, these things can be left to Le, and Chen Zhi is only responsible for pretending to be Zhang He. Of course, before that, Chen Zhi was bound to escort Guo Jia to meet Han Fu.
Danri, Jizhou, in the chamber of the Assassin's Mansion. The crows in the hall were silent, and the warblers and swallows outside the window were so noisy that it was disturbing.
Han Fu, who was sitting on the main seat, looked irritable, he only felt that he had a terrible headache, in the past few days, this group of officials under his command who were not able to use it had been constantly persuading him to ask Yuan Shao for help, originally Han Fu thought it was a good idea, but Geng Wu and Guan Chun's continuous persuasion still played a certain role. Han Fu also began to consider that once Yuan Shao really had the intention of seizing Jizhou, if he asked for help, he would lead the wolf into the house, and he had no means to restrict Yuan Shao at all, so Han Fu was naturally uneasy.
Han Fu looked up at the civil and military forces in the hall, the black pressure was as if Yuan Shaozhi was to him, he picked up the letter spread out on the table and said, "Everyone, please look at yourself." β
The strategists in the hall looked at each other, but the frustrated people in the crowd began to close their eyes and recuperate, the letter in Han Fu's hand he was not curious at all, in fact, not only did he know the content of the letter in the hall at least half, but what was written on the letter paper was naturally Yuan Shao's knowledge that Gongsun Zhan wanted to try Jizhou.
And the reason why these high-ranking officials in Jizhou are not curious is very simple, there is also a more detailed letter than this on the case in their home, and the person who wrote the letter is to Yuan Shao to propose a strategy to Jizhou, which clearly states that Gongsun Zhan's attack on Jizhou is a secret letter between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan to attack Jizhou.
In this way, how can these officials not know that Gongsun Chan has been suppressed by Liu Xuan, the assassin of Youzhou, in Beiping, of course, Gongsun Chan will not be satisfied that he is only placed in Beiping, and when he gets Yuan Shao's secret letter, where is there a reason not to send troops? If Han Fu is weaker and less planned, he will inevitably ask Yuan Shao for help at that time. And these are Yuan Shao's plans to attack Jizhou.
And if it is planned according to the plan, then Jizhou is almost in the palm of Yuan Shao's hand, but now the reason why Han Fu is still unresolved is because there is more variable Xu Ji. Yuan Shao didn't expect Gongsun Chan to suspend the plan because of Xu Ji's letter, of course, in fact, Gongsun Chan was not because of Xu Ji's letter. saw that Yuan Shao had no movement, so he also began to doubt, so he chose to wait and see for the time being.
But this is troublesome for Yuan Shao, and now although Han Fu is worried about Gongsun Zhan, it is not imminent, and now Xu Ji is even more involved, which is something that Yuan Shao never wants to see.
Speaking of frustration, although he has never looked down on Han Fu, he is a square person, although he knew that Han Fu was not the master of the Ming Dynasty, but he did not think of betraying Han Fu to curry favor with Yuan Shao, and more importantly, he is now a little skeptical that Yuan Shao can take Jizhou, and as a minister, how can he betray the interests of the lord? Of course, this made Xin Ping very disdainful. This is undoubtedly a sign of pedantic in Xin Ping's opinion, but after all, he is extremely old, and he doesn't dare to do anything.
However, at this time, the play that should be played will continue after all, and after reading the letter, Xin Ping immediately said with a worried face: "Lord, it's not good!" Han Fu didn't know that Lu Dao was in big trouble, so he immediately replied with an irritated face: "Nonsense, don't I know? But what should we do now? β
Although Xin Ping was dissatisfied with Han Fu's attitude in his heart, he was relieved when he thought that it didn't take long for this to be just a rich man, he lightly glanced at Frustration, but saw that Frustration was still an old god, standing in place, and couldn't help but feel a sense of resentment in his heart, but at this time, he didn't have time to think about this, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Lord." If Yuan Benchu helps Gongsun Zhan, why is it enough to be in trouble? Why not send someone for help? β
There was a buzz in the hall before Han Fu could speak, obviously a group of civil and military officers who had purchased a plane with Yuan Shao took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, but there were people who were inclined to Yuan Shao and naturally there were also people who opposed Yuan Shao, such as Changshi Gengwu. He looked at it coldly for a long time, and knew that it was time for him to speak, so he shouted coldly: "Everyone, shut up! This is a place of discussion, but not a place of buying and selling. What kind of system is it to be so noisy? As soon as you heard Yuan Shao's name, it was like this, I would like to ask, is it the lord or Yuan Shao who is sitting in Jizhou now? β
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent. Geng Wu's words were indeed extremely sharp, especially the Wenchen present. These people are all boasting that they read the books of sages, and now what they are doing is betraying the disloyalty of the lord, and after hearing this, they naturally have a bad face, and the narrow-minded people secretly hate Geng Wu. However, Geng Wu didn't care about this matter, he turned his head and said to Han Fu again: "The lord has not forgotten Yuan Shao's posture when the princes met the alliance?" Even if he doesn't take the lord of Jizhou, he is only facing the situation of a big bully! β
Han Fu was shocked when he heard this, Geng Wu's previous sentence of sitting in Jizhou had already made him extremely dissatisfied, and now he remembered Yuan Shao's arrogance and extremely unceremonious appearance when he met the alliance that day, and suddenly felt even more uncomfortable, at that time, Yuan Shao said that he was in a hurry, but Han Fuyou couldn't see that Yuan Shao regarded himself as his subordinate.
Seeing Han Fu's face uncertain, Xin Ping secretly screamed in his heart, and said, "What does Lord Geng mean by this?" Does it mean that the original prince is a wolf, and his ambition cannot be cited as a reference? β
But when Geng Wu heard this, he replied with a cold smile: "The ambition of the wolf son is not only Yuan Benchu alone? I am afraid that there are countless people who help and abuse them! This was not polite at all, and many people's faces changed on the spot, and at this time, the frustrated professor who had closed his eyes suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of appreciation and regret when he looked at Geng Wu.
And Xin Ping couldn't help but sneer at the emotion in his heart at this time: "Lord Changshi's words are wrong, why don't you raise your eyes and look at everyone in the hall today, welcoming Yuan's original assistance to Jizhou is what everyone expects, such a beautiful thing, it's too late for me to meet Jizhou upside down, why does Lord Changshi want to make a stumbling block from it?" Could it be that we are all ignorant and short-sighted, or do adults think that only we are wise? β
Xin commented that he didn't have the slightest kindness, and the ruthlessness was that Geng Wu was in the middle of the target, if Geng Wu was not properly handled, then his career would end here. At this time, Guan Chun saw that the situation was not right, and Geng Wu was already in an embarrassing situation, and immediately opened his mouth to help, and angrily reprimanded Xin: "Xin Zhongzhi! Who dare you be so presumptuous? Don't you know the difference between dignity and inferiority? Could it be that there are some big people behind you who can't support you? β
Where did Xin Ping dare to admit it, and immediately retorted: "Lord Changshi can't argue that he can't use his official position to suppress people?" I am ashamed to ask myself, don't drive adults, I can ask everyone in the hall if I deliberately make things difficult? Hearing this, Guan Chun smiled coldly and said, "Xin Zhongzhi." How do you want to deceive me? Is it your business to discuss today? Hmph, I don't think about the Lord but just want to fight for power and profit. Joke! β
As soon as these words came out, Xin Ping naturally didn't dare to say it anymore, Guan Chun is now in the official residence. is the number one person below Han Fu, where does he dare to offend.
And at this time, Xun Chen was silent for a long time, and he also knocked out something unusual, the first few times, neither Geng Wu nor Guan Chun were so strong, and now they must have found a reliance, but now Xun Chen is not good at judging who is the backstage of these two people, but now it is obvious that the situation cannot be controlled by the two of them, so he said: "General, please listen to me: although Yuan Benchu is only the Bohai Taishou, his soldiers are fierce. If we don't ask Yuan Benchu to help, he may not have the heart to take it, and besides, the general is a protΓ©gΓ© of the Yuan clan, and he must also know that he looks at the world, and there are countless people who are willing to die for Yuan Benchu. Lord Geng Wu said that cutting off his grain and grass is cutting off Yuan Benchu's way of life, which is really misleading. Don't you know that Zhang Miao, Liu Dai, Liu Yu, and Wang Kuang can also provide grain and grass for Yuan Benchu? Speaking of this, Xun Chen paused and continued: "General, Xun Chen thinks that the plan now is not to ask for Yuan Shao's assistance, but how to know Yuan Shao's intentions. β
Xun Chen's words are standard and muddy, neither side is offended, but it makes the situation more and more chaotic. And Han Fu immediately fell into contemplation when he heard this. As Xun Chen said, if Yuan Shao really has the heart to seize Jizhou, it seems that it is not impossible to seize it by force, and now Gongsun Zhan, the great enemy, is on the side. Yuan Shao's intentions were difficult to guess, and the boredom in Han Fu's heart increased.
At this time, Xin Ping also relieved himself. Then Xun Chen's words began: "Lord, just as Mr. Youruo said. If Yuan Benchu had bad intentions, he only needed to suddenly raise troops and attack my Jizhou with his son Yuan Tan, and he could also seek to seize my Jizhou. So why bother? Don't say that Yuan Benchu acted as a teacher in this way, according to the strategy that Lord Geng had said before to cut off his food and grass, wouldn't that be an excuse for us to attack Jizhou to Yuan Shao? β
As soon as these words were spoken, all the people in the hall nodded secretly, Xun Chen's words were right, and so was Xin Ping's addition, Yuan Shao's current strength must be much stronger than the Jizhou army that suffered heavy casualties after fighting with Dong Zhuo's army. When the princes met before, Yuan Shao had not used much troops at all. If Yuan Shao really wants to send troops to attack Jizhou, strength is not a problem at all, once Yuan Shao is determined to do so, what is missing is nothing more than a legitimate excuse.
And Geng Wu's previous plan to cut off food just gave Yuan Shao an excuse, don't look at the current alliance of the princes has been broken, but Yuan Shao's name as the leader of the alliance is still there, once Yuan Shao uses this as an excuse, Han Fu is afraid that even the name of righteousness will be lost, and I am afraid that there will be no power to resist at that time. Han Fu thought of this, and he was secretly glad that he was not in a hurry to listen to Geng Wu's opinion, otherwise it would be difficult to say what the result would be.
Just when Han Fu was a little difficult to decide, a soldier outside the hall ran into the hall quickly and saluted: "There is a messenger sent by Xu Ji outside to ask for a meeting. β
The civil and military forces in the hall were even more suspicious, guessing what Xu Ji was sending people to come to at this time, but only Guan Chun sighed in his heart, the reason why Guo Jia was so coincidental was of course his arrangement. And the frustrated eyes who heard this also showed surprise, and he had some ominous premonitions in his heart, it was not an accident that Xu Ji's people appeared so appropriately, so someone in the hall must have fornicated with Xu Ji, so in this way, Yuan Shao's plan may not be realized so easily.
And Xin Ping also beat a drum in his heart, there is no doubt that Xu Ji is Yuan Shao's enemy, and it can even be said that it is a long-standing grudge, and those things in Luoyang City that Yuan Shao and Xu Ji love have long been known. And Xu Ji, who was Yuan Shao's enemy, obviously sent people to Yecheng at this time not just to pay a visit, so what kind of person is this envoy?
And Han Fu naturally learned the news of Guo Jia's return from Guan Chun early in the morning, so it was not very surprising, but at this time Han Fu was a little entangled, now it is a little difficult to decide whether to see or not to see, and now he may not really ask Yuan Shao for help, and now the grievances between Yuan Shao and Xu Ji are well known, and now the situation in Jizhou is delicate, and once the matter of meeting Guo Jia reaches Yuan Shao's ears, it is difficult to say what the result will be.
Xin Ping has always been good at speculating on the intentions of others, and now when he looks at Han Fu's face, he knows that this person is now hesitant and indecided, and when he said categorically: "Lord, now is a good time to show favor to Yuan Benchu, Xu Ji sent this short-lived Guo Jia to the door, why don't the lord arrest this Guo Jia and behead him, and then send Guo Jia's head to Yuan Benchu's place, and then use a letter to express the lord's affection for inviting Yuan Benchu to govern the state together, isn't it the best of both worlds?" β
Geng Wu and Guan Chun's faces changed at the same time when they heard this, this is not a good thing. (To be continued......)
