Chapter 683: A smile and a grudge

Gongsun Zhan wrote letters to Liu Yu and Fang Zhiwen respectively to ask for opinions on the matter of going south, and no one knows what the content of their replies was.

After receiving Fang Zhiwen's reply, Gongsun Zhan immediately set off with Gongsun Yue and Guan Jing and his own guards to Jixian County to meet Liu Yu and Fang Zhiwen.

On the way, Gongsun Zhan received the news that Cao Cao occupied Qian County, and when he arrived in Ji County, the edict of the appointment of the Son of Heaven also reached Liu Yu's hands.

The meeting took place at Liu Yu's home, and the reason why it was at home rather than at the government office was because Liu Yu felt that it was basically a private gathering, and that it was more easy-going at home.

Fang Zhiwen naturally knew what Liu Yu meant by doing this, now that the situation in the Central Plains has changed suddenly, the situation in Youzhou is bound to be implicated, especially if Gongsun Chan chooses to go south, Youzhou is divided between Fang Zhiwen and Liu Yu, and the strength of the two is not balanced, so Liu Yu's attitude of wanting to take the initiative to reconcile the relationship with Fang Zhiwen is also very clear.

In fact, Fang Zhiwen did not have the idea of annexing Youzhou, the root cause of this idea was the lack of talent, and the other was that Fang Zhiwen did not want to put too much pressure on the surrounding states and counties, which led to the surrounding states and counties uniting against Youzhou, and although the center of gravity of the aliens shifted south, no one would guarantee that they would no longer covet Youzhou!

In the spirit of seeking stability, Fang Zhiwen has no idea of rushing to change the development trend of Youzhou. At present, the development momentum of the Miyun system is good, and with the change of the situation, the situation in Youzhou will also further change naturally, and when necessary, Youzhou will naturally form a unified situation, but it is definitely not now.

The weather is fine today. It's early spring, and although it's a little chilly, you can still feel the warmth of the spring breeze in the sun. Therefore, Liu Yu set the venue for the meeting in the pavilion in the garden, so that he came. The guards of the three parties could see their lords, and their hearts were naturally a lot more relaxed.

The pavilion is not big, just three people sit opposite each other, there is a staff member behind them, and a small tea stove is placed in the middle, and Liu Yu is even more hands-on to cook tea for everyone.

Gongsun Zhan's mind was a little flustered, once upon a time, Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu had an endless relationship, and they had fought to the death with Fang Zhiwen, but when I looked back today. found that for the sake of interests, it seems that these grievances are no longer an unacceptable shame and unwillingness.

Putting personal honor and disgrace in front of the interests of a group is nothing; Put personal successes and failures into the long river of time, which is not even sediment, when standing on a different height today. Looking at the things he had been thinking about in the past, Gongsun Chan suddenly felt a little funny, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, revealing an indifferent smile.

Fang Zhiwen was slightly surprised, didn't he say that the protagonist would always feel it? Could it be that the protagonist is not himself, but this grandson who was abused by himself?

"Lord Gongsun seems to have understood! I don't know what I've figured out? ”

Liu Yu obviously also noticed Gongsun Zhan's expression. Curiously asked, as an opening remark.

Gongsun Chan didn't answer, but stroked his beard with a smile and asked playfully: "Master Liu, I don't know how future generations will evaluate us people after a thousand years?" Will it make us all forget? ”

"Well, this old man doesn't know."

Fang Zhiwen grinned: "Lord Gongsun is so proud! If you want to be recited by future generations, you can only do it if you have created immortal deeds and left legendary stories, and mediocre people will naturally be forgotten by future generations1

"Well said! Lord Fang is worthy of being a hero who wiped out the Hu clan, and it is a great honor to be able to sit and drink tea with a hero like Lord Fang, guide the country, and be able to compete with Lord Fang on the battlefield, win or lose with guns! Haha"

Fang Zhiwen nodded lightly, this Gongsun Chan is enlightened, obviously, his martial arts skills are also going to the next level, open-minded, lofty ambitions, and the courage to face challenges, Gongsun Chan will definitely be able to lay a world in the Central Plains!

"I am the same, and the deeds of Gongsun will be passed down through the ages1

"Accept your words! A certain family has decided to accept the edict of the Son of Heaven, Keri went south to Hanoi, this Youzhou is afraid that he will never come back, and I don't know if there will be a chance to reunite with the two in the Central Plains

Gongsun Chan was full of pride, and suddenly he didn't have the idea of wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to get some cheap, he was about to leave Youzhou, why bother to do that little family's thing, it was better to leave a glorious image, and he would not be despised by his old enemy!

The three of them raised their glasses and replaced the wine with tea.

"Is Lord Gongsun going south with his family?" Liu Yu asked with some concern, in fact, Liu Yu also knew that it would be difficult for Gongsun Chan to gain a foothold in Hanoi if he did not have the determination to make a desperate bet, but Gongsun Chan really moved his family south, and Liu Yu would inevitably be a little uneasy.

"Naturally, yes. The boss is worried that the situation in Youzhou has changed, right? In fact, there is no need, if Lord Fang has the idea of unifying Youzhou, I'm afraid that even if you and I work together, we won't be able to resist it, right? ”

Gongsun Zhan said it directly, looking straightforward and honest, which made Liu Yu look a little like a timid profiteer.

Liu Yu smiled awkwardly, his eyes looked at Fang Zhiwen, but he was not embarrassed at all, they were all old foxes, and no one's skin was thin!

"Hehe, Lord Gongsun laughed, laughed, I don't have the idea of unifying Youzhou, and I don't have the ability to manage such a big territory."

Fang Zhiwen replied with a faint smile, but he did not refute Gongsun Zhan's statement, on the contrary, Fang Zhiwen's expression was indifferent, which was an affirmation of Gongsun Zhan's statement, an expression of self-confidence, Liu Yu's face sank when he saw it.

"Hehe, Lord Fang is humble, a certain Lord Fang fights, he is invincible, he has a rare record of defeat, his strong generals emerge in endlessly, and the troops are both offensive and defensive, a certain family claims to be definitely not an opponent, or does Master Liu feel that he can confront Lord Fang head-on?"

"This and this...... It's useless to talk about this matter, Youzhou needs Boss Liu, and Boss Liu is at ease, even if Youzhou needs to be unified one day, it doesn't necessarily have to be a river of blood, right? ”

Liu Yu took a deep breath, his understanding of politics is very profound, and he naturally understands what Fang Zhiwen means, think about it, if Youzhou really needs reunification, he can't stop it, and even Gongsun Zan can't do it, if Youzhou doesn't have the need for reunification, why should he worry about Fang Zhiwen doing these superfluous things?

"Hehe, that's right, it's the old man who is too worried. This time, Lord Gongsun went south, but what could be helped, even if he opened his voice, the old man should do his best1

Gongsun Zhan's eyes rolled, and he nodded with a smile: "It's just what I wanted." ”

Liu Yu's heart trembled, this Gongsun Zhan is not going to go down the pole, take the opportunity to open his mouth, his words have already been said, and it will be very shameless to return when the time comes.

"Lord Gongsun is worried about the long road, and there are dangers and obstacles along the way, right?"

Fang Zhiwen saw that Liu Yu was a little uneasy, and opened his mouth in time to divert the topic.

"Exactly, Master Fang's wisdom 1

"This matter is easy, you can go directly to Hanoi by ship, if Gongsun can be trusted, Tangshan Port can be opened in Xiaxia, Gongsun can hire a ship by himself, if you use our army's logistics fleet or merchant ships."

Gongsun Chan immediately smiled and squinted, this is a great thing! It takes up to four days to reach Hanoi by water, which saves a lot of time than by land, and the cost of water transportation will be much lower.

"So good! Thank you, Lord Fang, for taking care of 1

Liu Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "This is the best, Lord Gongsun needs to arrive in Hanoi as soon as possible, I heard that the Shangdang is too guarded and flamboyant, and is searching all over Hanoi County." ”

"Humph! Such a villain, must be a soldier of the 1st Gongsun Zan pouted disdainfully.

Fang Zhiwen asked with interest: "I don't know what Lord Gongsun thinks of the situation in the Central Plains?" ”

Gongsun Zhan paused slightly, stroked his beard and said: "The Central Plains land clan has been entrenched for hundreds of years, and it can be said that it is deep-rooted, but after this war, many clans have suffered a serious blow. ”

Liu Yu looked at Gongsun Chan with complicated eyes, the current Central Plains is really a mess, and what is worse is the situation of the imperial power, the biggest threat to the imperial power is these princes, including the two in front of him, and the only way to reassert the imperial power is to eliminate these princes, so Liu Yu must support Gongsun Chan to go to the Central Plains to participate in the war, the princes of the Central Plains are gone, maybe the imperial power will have a chance to be reasserted.

Therefore, hearing Gongsun Zhan's proud declaration, Liu Yu's heart was happy, but also full of helplessness and shame.

Fang Zhiwen nodded, if you simply calculate the combat power, the combat power of the troops of the Central Plains clan is indeed not very good, but the number of troops of the Central Plains princes is very large, and the population base is larger, if Gongsun Chan uses Youzhou's thinking to face the princes of the Central Plains, he will definitely suffer a loss, however, Fang Zhiwen is not interested in telling him this, since he has confidence, he will toss it himself, the Central Plains is big enough.

"Hehe, this is true, the generals of the Central Plains generally lack experience in big battles, and they must not be the opponents of Lord Gongsun, then Master Liu and I will wait for the good news of Lord Gongsun in Youzhou1

Fang Zhiwen's words made the high-spirited Gongsun Chan more vigilant, although now the direct contradiction with Fang Zhiwen has disappeared, and the two are no longer in a life-and-death relationship, but all along, Gongsun Chan has always maintained a high degree of vigilance against Fang Zhiwen, so the more beautiful Fang Zhiwen's words are, the more vigilant Gongsun Chan is.

Could it be that things in the Central Plains are not as they imagined? rs! ~!
