In October of the fifth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao accepted Xu You's strategy and attacked the black nest.

Historically, the keeper of the black nest was Chun Yuqiong. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong and Chun Yuqiong were described as a wine bag and rice bag, and Cao Cao almost easily conquered the camp of the Yuan army. But in fact, it was not easy for Cao Cao to sneak attack the Black Nest. Shi Chun and Yu Qiong defended the black nest, and Cao Cao was approached by Yuan's army, which made the situation of Cao's army critical. Cao Cao ordered Cao's army to storm Yuan's camp, almost at the moment before Yuan's reinforcements arrived, broke through Wuchao, set fire to grain and grass, and caused Yuan's army to be disrupted, and finally made the battle a success.

Now, Chun Yuqiong has died in Liaoxi.

The general who succeeded Chun Yuqiong to guard the black nest was named Lu Weihuang, and Xu You had the grace of knowing him.

Therefore, when Xu You's letter arrived at the camp, Lu Weihuang responded with troops after careful consideration. not only sacrificed the black nest, but also contacted the old city guard general Zhao Rong, joined forces with Cao Cao, ambushed Han Juzi in Yanjin, and won a complete victory. Wuchao and the old city were broken, and Yuan Junjun's heart was in turmoil. Cao Cao took the opportunity to launch an attack on Yuan's army, and Yu Banle entered Xun You in front and back, causing Yuan Shao to be defeated and leave......

Yuan Shao's army of more than 100,000 was almost wiped out in Guandu.

Fortunately, Yuan Shang responded in a timely manner and led the department to respond. Yuan Shao fought his way out of the siege under the protection of the eight hundred halberds, and after joining forces with Yuan Shang, he retreated to the sour jujube.

The battle of Guandu has also come to an end!

After Yuan Shao's defeat, he recruited the remnants of the sour jujube.

He still has tens of thousands of troops in Liyang, but the defeat has been decided, and Yuan Shao is no longer able to launch a counterattack.

Under such circumstances, Yuan Shao could only order the collection of troops and order the people to retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River, and once again form a confrontation with Cao's army.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Tian Shi stood at the gate, and Liu Chuang's voice seemed to be echoing in his ears.

"Juyan, I just received the news that Yuan Shao was defeated in Guandu.

Ling Zun opposed Yuan Shao's dispatch of troops. Imprisoned. Now it seems that Ling Zun was really prescient, and in the end, his words became prophecies...... Don't be too happy. In my opinion, Yuan Shao's defeat may not be a good thing for Ling Zun. Based on my understanding of Yuan Shao, if he wins Guandu, Ling Zun will still have a chance of life...... Hehe, if you win, you must always show some victorious posture. But now he's lost, and he's losing badly! The army of 100,000 was gone. With his temperament, I'm afraid he may not be able to let Ling Zun go. ”

"Juyan doesn't have to worry, Yuan Shao is defeated today. The momentum is not what it used to be.

And I sit in Youzhou, and I can join Cao Cao in the south, which is enough to resist Yuan Shao's counterattack. Although Yuan Benchu was confused, he was not stupid. He must be able to see the current situation, and I am sitting in Youzhou. It's hard to change, so sooner or later you'll make peace with me.

Can I rescue Mr. Yuan Hao...... Don't look at me, I know that Mr. Yuan Hao is dissatisfied with me, and even more jealous.

But I believe that after this incident, he can already see that Yuan Ben was not a person who has achieved great things, and I also believe it. He was able to make the right choices. ”

"Do me a favor and let the Zhen family belong to me......"

"Sue them, I can make their family more prosperous.

Zhongshan is not big. There is no room for three powerful ...... Sue them, as long as they are willing to come to Youzhou, I will make them the No. 1 tycoon in Youzhou within ten years. ”

Until he arrived in Wuji County, Tian Shi was still a little confused.

In the first battle of Liaoxi, he was captured by Lu Bu and became a prisoner of the order. Then he was imprisoned in Linyu with Frustrated Hu, and in a blink of an eye, he was more than half loaded.

Said to be imprisoned. It's more like house arrest.

Liu Chuang threw Tian Shi and Fu Hu into a separate courtyard, surrounded by heavy guards.

should be fed and clothed, Liu Chuang did not deduct at all. Even in some aspects of the arrangement, Liu Chuang almost followed the habits of the two.

For example, there are good geese, so there is a pond in the residence arranged by Liu Chuang, and there will be white geese every day. And Tian Shi likes to eat sheep tongue, he thinks that the tongue of suckling sheep is the most tender, Liu Chuang in his dietary arrangement, he specially found a cook who is good at cooking sheep tongue.

It can be seen from this that Liu Chuang knows everything about himself and Frustration.

It's just that after being captured, Liu Chuang never persuaded him to surrender, nor did he arrange for anyone to come to persuade the two of them, which made Tian Shi and Fu Hu particularly surprised.

Half a month ago, Liu Chuang suddenly ordered someone to bring Tian Shi to Zhuo County.

Just the day before yesterday, he summoned Tian Shi and assigned him a mission.

Tian Shi didn't want to listen, but when he heard that Liu Chuang was willing to help him rescue Tian Feng, he couldn't help but be moved.

After that, he came to Wuji in a daze, and it wasn't until he was able to make people understand that he came to his senses...... Tian Shi's wit was not bad, and while he was waiting for the news, he figured out Liu Chuang's intentions. Liu Chuang wanted to plot against Zhongshan, so he persuaded Zhen to surrender?

Zhen's is Yuan Xi's money and food.

If Zhen didn't support Yuan Xi, Yuan Xi wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in Zhongshan at all.

In this way, he can take advantage of the situation and seek the Zhongshan Kingdom. And the prince and uncle have been fighting for a long time in the river, if Zhongshan is lost, they will inevitably return to the army to rescue, and the pressure on Yi County will be reduced. At that time, the previous arrangements between the father and uncle will be in vain.

Around Liu Chuang, there are capable people!

This trick is indeed extremely powerful......

Thinking of this, Tian Shi couldn't help but be a little shaken in his heart.

He vaguely felt that, as Liu Chuang said, it was difficult for Yuan Shao to achieve great things.

If Liu Chuang sits firmly in Youzhou, he will be a prince in the future. It is difficult for his family to gain a foothold under Yuan Shao's account, so why should he be loyal to Yuan Shao?

At this moment, a steward walked out from the gate of Zhen's mansion.

"Sir, my wife is invited."

Tian Shi was in good spirits at the moment, and smiled at the old steward, "Please lead the way." ”

Follow the trail and go straight to the back house.

It's just that when Tian Shi walked into the back house, he found that a big tripod had been erected in the yard, and there was a pile of firewood under the ding, and the fire was booming.

In the air, there was a misty green smoke.

Seeing this scene, Tian Shi understood Zhen's intentions, smiled at the moment, and walked into Mingtang without fear.

At this moment, he seemed to have regained his original qualities as a strategist.

"In Shimoda Shimo, Jizhou Julu people's clan, meet the old lady."

Tian Shi walked into the Ming Hall. He gave his name.

Zhen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Tian Shi? Could it be Mr. Yuan Hao's son? ”

"It's just not a talent."

At this moment, the momentum that Old Madam Zhen had gathered dissipated a lot, and even Zhen Yao, who was standing behind Old Madam Zhen with a murderous face, also showed a look of surprise.

"Why did Tian Gongzi come here, and how could he walk with the thief who kidnapped my family's Xiaomi."

A trace of anger appeared on Old Madam Zhen's face, but between her words, she still maintained a little restraint.

That's the difference between a wealthy merchant and a Baume & Mercier! Don't look at Zhen's reputation in Zhongshan country. It is not extremely strong. But in front of celebrities like Tian Feng, it is not worth mentioning. The Tian family is also a famous family in Jizhou, and perhaps the family property is not as rich as the Zhen family. But its influence is far from being comparable to Zhen's. Even if Tian Feng was put in prison by Yuan Shao, his reputation should not be underestimated. Tian Shi is the son of Tian Feng, even if Mrs. Zhen is angry in her heart, she has to hold back the anger in her heart and maintain some respect for Tian Shi. This. It's the power of fame!

Tian Shi said: "I don't know about Zhen Niangzi's affairs.

I came to be entrusted with a message to the old lady. ”

The old lady's face turned a little pale, and she took a deep breath and asked, "I don't know who the son is entrusted by and what words he brings?" ”

"I was entrusted by Uncle Liu. Come and persuade the old lady. ”

Uncle Liuhuang?

The old lady sighed in her heart, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

How many people can be called Uncle Liu Huang in the world? And judging by the current situation. Tian Shi's 'Uncle Liu Huang' is not difficult to guess.

Before the old lady could speak, Zhen Yao was already furious.

"Okay, you Tian Juyan, after you are also a celebrity, you dare to do such a thing?

If you don't hand over my little sister today. Don't blame me for breaking your body into ten thousand pieces. ”

Who is Tian Shi?

That's the guy who dared to run to lobby Lu Bu!

Zhen Yao's face was hideous and murderous. But in Tian Shi's view, there is nothing to be afraid of.

This kid has never seen Lu Wenhou, let alone Uncle Liu Huang. I thought that I could talk eloquently in front of the tiger, even under the flying bear tent, and I was not afraid. Do you think that by making this hideous appearance, you can scare me? If I'm really afraid, I'm not Tian Juyan.

Tian Shi laughed, "How can the broken corpse be relieved?"

When I came in just now, there was a big ding outside the door, why don't you throw me into it, wouldn't cooking it make the third prince more happy? It's just that in this way, I'm afraid that your Zhen family will be in trouble. When the time comes, the whole family will be killed, and the century-old strength of the Zhen family will be wiped out. ”

"I'll kill you!"

Zhen Yao was so angry that he drew his sword and was about to step forward, but Tian Shi stood there, but he didn't move.

"Xiao Yao, step aside."

"Mother's ......"

"I want you to apologize to Juyan Gongzi immediately, what kind of style is this, it's simply insulting to my Zhen family."

Zhen Yao's face was pale, and he retreated to the side a little reluctantly.

The old lady looked at Tian Shi, and suddenly laughed after a while, "After the son of Juyan is worthy of his fame, the old man is as if he has seen Mr. Yuan Hao."

Well, what advice does Uncle Liu have for you? ”

The old lady did not ask why Tian Shi would assist Liu Chuang. This kind of thing is nothing worth asking, since Tian Shi was sent by Liu Chuang, it must have been invested in Liu Chuang's account. Now, she already knows that it was Liu Chuang who kidnapped Zhen Mi, and this matter will be easy to handle.

Tian Shi sat down calmly and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, old lady, as far as I know, although Zhen Niangzi was taken captive, it is fine.

Uncle Huang arranged her in the Linyu General's Mansion, and was taken care of by several ladies, and did not touch her at all. However, I have heard that the old lady is in some trouble. So on the one hand, I want to report peace to the old lady, and on the other hand, I am here to solve the old lady's problems. ”

"You just need to hand over your little sister, and your worries will be solved."

"Third son, is that really the case?"

"You ......"

Tian Shi said with a smile: "As far as I know, the Zhen family's difficulties are definitely not brought by the emperor's uncle, but the Zhen family's mistakes in investment have led to today's difficulties." ”

The old lady glared at Zhen Yao angrily and asked him not to speak.

"Please also ask Tian Gongzi for guidance."

"Why do you need me to advise, doesn't the old lady really know?"

Old Madam Zhen's cheeks twitched, and after a while, she smiled bitterly, stood up, beckoned Zhen Chang to come over, and ordered him to withdraw the big ding outside.

"Tian Gongzi really has the style of a father, and he admires it.

That being the case, it is clear that people do not do dark things. Tian Gongzi thought. How to solve my Zhen family's troubles? If the Zhen family can survive this difficulty, the old body will be grateful. ”

"Old lady, do you know that Duke Yuan was defeated in Guandu?"

"Huh?"

Although the Zhen family is a prestigious family, it is not as well-informed as Liu Chuang.

At this time, Yuan Shao was still sour and had not yet returned to Liyang. And Zhen was busy raising money and food for Yuan Xi, so he didn't pay attention to the battle situation in Guandu. In fact, most of the major heroes in Hebei thought that Yuan Shao would win this battle. Even the Su family, who had cooperated with Liu Chuang before, just wanted to take advantage of Liu Chuang's time in Youzhou. Make a lot of money. They don't think that Liu Chuang can sit in Youzhou.

This is also the main reason why when the Su clan fulfilled the covenant, the yang and the yin disobeyed.

After Mrs. Zhen heard the news of Yuan Shao's defeat. I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart......

And Zhen Yao's face changed greatly.

"The Zhen family had previously helped Yuan Ergongzi to become enemies of the imperial uncle many times, causing the imperial uncle to suffer heavy losses.

Uncle Huang was also quite annoyed by this matter. Therefore, he kidnapped Zhen Niangzi and taught the Zhen family a lesson. Uncle Liu Huang is broad-minded and ambitious, and he is by no means comparable to idle people. Now he has sat in Youzhou, and his fierce generals are like clouds, and there are countless virtuous and virtuous people. The momentum has been achieved.

Such a character, does the Zhen family really want to be an enemy of it? ”

The words made Mrs. Zhen's face uncertain.

After a while, she smiled bitterly and said, "The old woman is a streamer." The Zhen family is just a family of merchants, how dare they be enemies of the imperial uncle in their hearts. It was really a last resort, and it was definitely not the original intention of the Zhen family. For this reason, the Zhen family has learned a lot of lessons, why should Uncle Liu Huang embarrass my orphans and widows again? ”

As soon as this sentence came out. It's a confession!

Tian Shi sneered, "Did the Zhen family really admit their mistake?" ”

"Of course!"

"As far as I know. The Zhen family is still sending money and food to Yuan Xi...... A few days ago, in the battle of Yanxiang, the Zhen family gave Yuan Xi 50 million money and grain. And now, I heard that the Zhen family will continue to deliver money and food to Yuan Xi. Old lady, do you think Uncle Liu Huang is really easy to deceive? ”

Old Madam Zhen's face changed greatly, and she waved her hand again and again, "Tian Gongzi, the old body has no such intention. ”

On the side, Zhen Yao couldn't bear it, jumped out and shouted: "Do you want my Zhen family to do it?"

After all, Yuan Xi is the son of Yuan Gong, he asked us for it, how can my Zhen family refuse? If you really refuse, disaster will come. ”

"So, this is the crux of your Zhen family's troubles."

"Xiao Yao, shut up."

The old lady stopped Zhen Yao, squinted her eyes to look at Tian Shi, and suddenly said after a while: "Please also ask Tian Gongzi to speak clearly." ”

"I said, it's your Zhen family who doesn't know people.

You only saw that Yuan Xi was the son of Yuan Gong and the lord of Hebei. But I don't know that Yuan Xi is not as important as Yuan Gong, but he is just a child. Do you think that by clinging to the Yuan family, you can stand tall in Zhongshan? Hehe, but I didn't know that Yuan Xi was also taking a fancy to the Zhen family's money and grain.

Today, Yuan Xi is overwhelmed, and the Zhen family is overwhelmed.

Yuan Xi is already rare to reuse, and if you want to rely on the Yuan family, I am afraid it will be a luxury.

Even if Uncle Huang puts Zhen Niangzi back, will you really let your Zhen family go? At that time, Yuan Xi is estimated that he will not make any more demands, but Yuan Gong will not give up. Yuan Gongguandu was defeated and must regroup. Uncle Huang sits in Youzhou, and there will inevitably be another war. Zhongshan is the front line of the battle of Youzhou, and you are not very proud when the time comes, shouldn't you give some expressions?

Now the second son of Yuan, you took 50 million money and grain.

When the time comes, Yuan Gongqin will lead a large army to come, and the Zhen family will also come up with 100 million dollars and grain...... Old lady, how much money and food do you have up and down the Zhen family? ”

After listening to Tian Shi's words, Mrs. Zhen was silent for a long time.

Zhen Yao, on the other hand, lowered his head and stopped talking.

His eyes were rolling vigorously, and he didn't know what to think about in his heart.

"Please also ask Tian Gongzi to teach me!"

The old lady sighed, her face bitter.

"I've heard people say that the key to business vision is to find the right person.

You've voted for the wrong person before, but that's okay! Now if you can find the right person, you can turn it around. Before I set off, Uncle Liu asked me to tell the old lady: Zhongshan is too small to accommodate three rich families. In that case, why not look elsewhere? ”

"Oh?"

Tian Shi said: "Uncle Liu Huang is sitting in Youzhou today, and he has achieved the general trend.

Although Yuan Shao is strong, he is restrained by Cao Cao in the south, and I am afraid it will be difficult to pose a threat to Uncle Liu Huang.

The Zhen family has a hard place in Zhongshan, so why not go to Youzhou? I heard that Uncle Liu Huang is building a large construction project in Youzhou, and he needs people from all walks of life to help. With the strength of the Zhen family, you can start a new business in Youzhou. With Uncle Liu's care and the Zhen family's century-old business path, why can't you prosper? Uncle Liu Huang said that if the Zhen family is willing to serve, within three years, it will live up to the name of the first powerful man in Youzhou. ”

Old Madam Zhen gasped when she heard this.

"Uncle Liuhuang, really said that?"

"How could I deceive such things?"

The old lady couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart, no matter what, Liu Chuang is now a prince and sits in Youzhou.

What about Yuan Shao?

God knows how long it will last after the defeat of Guandu...... I heard that Cao Cao served the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and he was not an idle person. These two joined forces to attack, can Yuan Shao really support it? Although Yuan Shao has a deep foundation, but now even Tian Feng's son is working for Liu Chuang, doesn't it mean that Yuan Shao has really begun to decline, and Liu Chuang will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future......

Previously, the Su family relied on their relationship with Liu Chuang to open up the Liaodong trade route, steal the Zhen family's business, and make a lot of profits.

His Su family can rely on Uncle Liu Huang, but my Zhen family can't rely on Uncle Liu Huang?

The more the old lady thought about it, the more she felt that what Tian Shi said made sense. Although Tian Shi meant that he wanted the Zhen family to abandon their ancestral business in Zhongshan...... This may be a bit difficult, but my lord's family is now forced to divide the house, so I can only do my best. In that case, why not start anew?

The left and right are some fields and houses, and they are given a sub-house.

Zhen's business route is in the hands of the main family, and with such a capital, it can ensure that Zhen's foothold in Youzhou......

"Uncle Liuhuang, really don't care if we were enemies with him before?"

"Of course not!"

The old lady swallowed her saliva, hesitated for a while, and then asked, "But, why does Uncle Liu Huang value my Zhen family so much?" ”

This is a crucial question, and if there is no reasonable explanation, all the previous words will be in vain.

Tian Shi rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Guan Guan pheasant dove, in the river island." My Fair Lady, Gentleman...... Old lady, do you still have doubts in your heart? ”
