"Yuan Shang! After many days of negotiations, the prime minister has already promised you the post of general Sima, and now what he wants is only for you to return a few prisoners who originally belonged to our army, and you are unwilling to do this little thing, how can you let the prime minister believe in your sincerity!" Cao Zhi's tone was like ice, and his voice was cold.

To be honest, Cao Zhi's current conditions are not excessive, and it is reasonable to exchange a major name for a few prisoners, and the release of prisoners represents the sincerity of his own negotiations.

However, the identities of these prisoners are inevitably a little too important, Yuan Shangwei is really not easy to let go, Xiahou Yuan is a fierce general of the Cao family, not only is he brave and strong, and he is a good commander, Xun You and Zhong Xuan are even more famous people in the world, and letting them go is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain.

Of course, in addition to these three leaders, there are many other Cao generals and ministers who have been prisoners of war in Hebei in a big battle in Guanzhong, but these people have little to do with each other, and Yuan Shang has promised to let them go, but those three people ......

On the left is an important official position, and on the right is a few strong opponents in his hands, how to choose is really a headache for Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang was depressed, listening to Cao Zhi's roar, there was no good tone in his words, and he said coldly: "Prime Minister, I have already told you just now, the other prisoners of war are easy to say, but only Xiahou Yuan, Zhong Xuan, and Xun You are not willing to let go, but they don't want to go back, the prime minister is a person of elegance, and he always doesn't force these people to do something they don't want to do, right?" ”

Cao Zhi sneered when he heard this, and said, "Don't want to go back? It's ridiculous! Yuan Shang, why are you reluctant to let go of these three people, you and I know very well, and now I have a good relationship with you, when these three people return to my side, when will the seal of General Sima be delivered to you, otherwise, hum. It's all ...... talk."

Yuan Shang was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes showed a little essence, and said, "Prime Minister Cao, are you forcing Yuan to turn his face with you?" ”

Cao Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and said-for-tat: "You dare!" ”

Just when the two of them couldn't hold each other, they suddenly saw the Cao family's important minister Fu Zhao hurriedly walking in from outside the tent, his face was pale, he glanced at everyone, and he didn't say hello, just hurriedly walked to Cao Zhi's side. A whisper whispered in his ear.

When he was young, he saw that Cao Shi was full of excitement, his face became colorless, the fire of anger in his eyes disappeared completely, and all that was left was deep surprise.

Yuan Shang was stunned when he saw this, what did Qi Zhao say, to make this kid lose his temper like this?

After a long time, he saw Cao Zhi slowly stand up and bow his hand to Yuan Shang. said: "The prime minister still has some personal matters, go back to the camp first, when did Yuan Weiwei figure it out and promised to release him." It's not too late to come back and talk to the prime minister. ”

“…………”

*****************************

Today's negotiations broke up unhappily, and the two sides went back to their camps to discuss the next step.

After returning to his own camp, the trial immediately made a statement to Yuan Shang. Asked Yuan Shang to release the three of them.

"Lord, Xun You, Xiahou Yuan. Although Zhong Miao and the others are important, after all, they are only the three minions of the Cao family, and for us, the most important thing at the moment is to get the official position of General Sima! Lord, Yuan's started in Hebei back then, and what did he rely on? It is the fame of the protégé of the fourth and third princes all over the world! The status of the name of the Yuan clan in Shilin, looking at the entire Han Dynasty, no clan can surpass it! This is our advantage! And the name of General Sima is even higher than the Three Princes! The lord got this title, although it is not the fifth and third dukes, but it is better than the fifth and third dukes! This matter has too much impact on my Hebei, please don't hesitate to let people go! ”

After the words of the trial were finished, there was immediately Xiao Ji, Guo Tu and others echoed.

Yuan Shang didn't answer immediately, but touched his chin and thought carefully for a while, and said, "Don't you think today's incident is a bit strange?" ”

Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, most of them are unknown.

Only Sima Yi was treacherous and cunning, and seemed to have a guess, and said: "What the lord said is the manifestation of Cao Zhi's sudden change of color after Qi Zhao entered the account?" ”

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "At that time, Cao Zhi was extremely angry, his words were sharp, and he saw that the two of us could bite it, and Fu Zhao came in and extinguished Cao Zhi's fire with a word...... It's not that simple. ”

Deng Chang nodded and said, "As the old man expected, it must be bad news for Fu Zhao......"

Everyone turned their heads together and rolled their eyes at Deng Chang, expressing deep disdain!

That's!

During the discussion, the tent curtain of the camp was lifted, and he walked in quickly, and said to Yuan Shang: "Lord Qi, the spies in Zhongzhou have flying pigeons to pass on the book!" ”

Yuan Shang waved his hand and said, "What news?" ”

"Jingzhou Guan Yu, raise 50,000 troops, with Li Yan as the vanguard, attack Yangzhai, the capital of Yingchuan, and Yuzhou is in an emergency! In Jinan, Le'an's Yellow Turban thieves Xu He and Sima Ju rose up and plundered the counties of Taishan, and Cao Zhi's rear was unstable! ”

When the ministers heard this, they all showed a look of sudden realization.

"I see, Cao Zhishi left in a hurry because there was chaos in these two places in the southeast!" Guo Tu said excitedly.

Yuan Shang didn't answer, he just frowned, silently pondering the words of the right talent.

"Mr. Fu, this news came back from Xu Du's spies?"

"No, it's our fine work in Yingdi and Taishan that came back separately."

"Is there a letter from the spies on the other side of Xudu?"

Fu Zhu shook his head and said: "The curfew in Xu Du is extremely strict, and the method of Feishu does not work in Xudu, it has always been spies who toss and turn out the situation in Xu Du, and then Feishu is based elsewhere...... Speaking of which, it is strange that I haven't believed in it for a long time. ”

When Yuan Shang heard this, he sneered and said, "It's not strange, there is no news, it must be because someone in Xu Du has blocked the road and cut off the channel, and something big has happened in it!" ”

Frustrated when he heard this, he was surprised: "Why did the lord say this? ”

"Guan Yu went north, although its momentum is fierce, but it is useless, the soldiers everywhere in Zhongzhou will be ready to fight, and it is expected that he will retreat soon! Sima Ju, Xu He, and other old thieves of the Yellow Turban, are all busy people, just gaining momentum for a while, although they can add some chaos, but it is not difficult for Cao Zhi to deal with them, the impact of these two things is bad, but it cannot cause Cao Zhi to lose his temper at the negotiating table. In addition, our spy information in Xudu can't be sent, it must be something wrong behind Cao Zhi! ”

When everyone heard this, they seemed to have understood.

Sima Yi said: "In this case, the lord might as well send a small team to Zhongzhou to quietly investigate the news, and we are still here to negotiate with Cao Zhi and observe his movements!" ”

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "Yes, but in this negotiation, Cao Zhi is going north to the important town of the Twelfth Road." The 100,000 soldiers and horses and generals we have arranged in Liyang must not be moved lightly, it is easy to cause misunderstanding, and it is easy to be discovered by Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others. ”

Sima Yi thought for a while, nodded and said, "Then send a capable, inconspicuous one, and lead a few people to explore quietly!" ”

Frustrated, he said, "Inconspicuous? Most of the people in the Liyang military camp are elite, and most of the leading generals are also familiar faces who have fought with Cao Jun for many years. This humble man...... I'm afraid it's hard to find. ”

Yuan Shang smiled slightly and said, "It's okay." I have a candidate, so I'll use those two little bastards who just joined the army. ”

**********************

White Manan, Cao Zhi Xingying.

"Xun Yu. Xun Wenruo! Since I succeeded to the throne, I have never treated her lightly, why did he run to the side of the Son of Heaven and take the lead against me?! ”

Cao Zhi's eyes were a little moist. It seems to be sad that this is the first time that I have suffered such a great betrayal.

But now he is also the master of one party, and no matter how sad and sad he is, he can't cry out on such an occasion, so he tries his best to hold back. It's just that the tears in his eyes faintly flicker, revealing his painful mood at the moment.

Guo Jia shook his head when he heard this: "Prime Minister, Xun Yu is backlashing, the truth of this matter cannot be determined, and I hope that Prime Minister Hugh will make a conclusion prematurely." ”

Cao Zhi sniffed vigorously and sobbed: "Still not arguing the truth? Li Fu anxious book, the Son of Heaven instigated the cronies of the officials in the DPRK and China, organized all the families and hidden forces, in the name of the east parade and hunting, drove out of the city, the forbidden city army and horses wanted to stop, but did not want Xun Yu to stand by the side of the Son of Heaven, personally adjusted the charm to drink back all the blocking soldiers and horses, and went east with the Son of Heaven, along the road there are already four passes and soldiers and horses released because of him! The Son of Heaven and his entourage of the Eastern Patrol Team left the western border of Yanzhou yesterday, this is not a rebellion, what is it? ”

Guo Jia grinned and said: "Xun Yu is not such a person, when he tried his best to promote the prime minister to power, was it just to be able to hold the Son of Heaven hostage from the control of the prime minister today?" This is ridiculous, there must be something hidden in it! The urgent thing at the moment is to find a way to quickly recover the Son of Heaven, escort Xun Yu back to Xudu, and ask the facts! ”

Cao Zhi heard the words and said: "Guan Yu went out of Yingchuan, Sima Ju and Xu He plundered the prefectures and counties in Jinan, the troops and horses in Zhongzhou were frequently mobilized, the interception force was small, and Xun Yu held the permission to release the passes everywhere!" The only way to stop it is to send a general from here to stop it! ”

When Liu Ye heard this, he hurriedly went out of class: "Prime Minister must not, now I have 12 troops and horses going north, and Yuan Shang has held talks with Yuan Shang, Yuan Shang has also arranged 100,000 troops in Liyang, the two sides contain each other, and they are waiting for each other, at this time the negotiations have not ended, once the prime minister transfers troops, Yuan Shang will inevitably see that something big has happened in my rear, and I can't say that the 100,000 troops stationed in Liyang will go south in an instant, this is not impossible!" ”

Cao Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean, I can't use the fierce generals and elites around me now?" ”

Liu Ye nodded heavily and said: "Not only can it not be used, but Yuan Shang has to be guarded more closely than before, this person is too cunning, once he sees the bottom, the prime minister will be in danger of being tired, and he will regret it when the time comes!" ”

"What then?" Cao Zhi was a little panicked when he heard this: "Just let the Son of Heaven run away in the name of hunting?" ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he said slowly: "It's okay to send it, but the dispatch of soldiers and horses must be small, at most three or five hundred people, so as not to be noticed by Yuan Shang, this leader is even more important, he must be a person who is not famous and does not matter much, so as to cover Yuan Shang's ears and eyes." ”

Cao Zhi said hurriedly when he heard this: "It doesn't matter who you are...... Who to send? ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a crisp shout from the mouth of the tent: "Brother, don't worry, the younger brother is willing to share his worries for his brother!" ”

"......" (To be continued......)
