"Lord, my subordinates are not joking, please think about it, what is our purpose, what are we afraid of, and then how can we get a way to balance the two?"

Guan Jing's eyes lit up, but then he glanced at Dong Zhao with some jealousy, regretting why he didn't think of this question, he had obviously taken ninety-nine steps, but this last step was not taken by himself, that feeling was really uncomfortable, like a little insect in his heart kept biting.

Gongsun Yue nodded secretly, Dong Zhao's idea is indeed very ingenious, this method can not only achieve the essence of the alliance, but also avoid stabbing Fang Zhiwen, it is indeed a way to get the best of both worlds.

Gongsun Zhan's eyes gradually lit up: "Gongren is saying that the essence of the alliance will be reached first, and he will not give Fang Zhiwen the truth to do it?" But will he use abnormal means, such as thieves? ”

"Lord, our army is different from Yuan Shao, the place where our army borders Fang Zhiwen is originally a key defense area, as long as Fang Zhiwen's army is not here, what is our army afraid of? Can't a few thieves be destroyed? Moreover, if there are really thieves, we can take the opportunity to claim control of Taihang Mountain. ”

Gongsun Zhan raised his eyebrows and nodded: "It makes sense, it makes sense1."

Guan Jing frowned and interjected: "Gongren, this is just your wishful thinking, Yuan Shao and Sima Fang may not cooperate, on the contrary, if Sima Fang has the idea of carving us up with Fang Zhiwen, he will even take the opportunity to sell us to Fang Zhiwen." ”

Dong Zhao smiled, this is a bit unreasonable, didn't you say you wanted to form an alliance just now? Now that I've found you an effective way to form an alliance, you're talking about the danger of forming an alliance! However, Dong Zhao was not embarrassed by Guan Jing's cross-examination

"I don't think so, don't Sima Fang understand the truth of cold lips and teeth? What's more, didn't Shi Qi also say just now, Fang Zhiwen's strength is a threat to all the princes, even if Sima Fang divides our territory with Fang Zhiwen, does he have the capital to confront Fang Zhiwen? In the opinion, this not only can not increase Sima Fang's capital to fight against Fang Zhiwen, but will further improve Fang Zhiwen's strength, Sima Fang can recover Dong Zhuo's subordinates with his own strength and control the Chang'an court, how can he be so short-sighted? ”

Guan Jing opened his mouth, he seemed to have done something stupid and became a stepping stone for Dong Zhao, Guan Jing, who was bitter in his heart, simply closed his mouth, not wanting to set up a platform for Dong Zhao anymore.

"What about Yuan Shao?" Gongsun Yue then asked.

"Yuan Shao is a little more troublesome, although Yuan Shao has more ideas, but now his great enemy is undoubtedly Cao Cao, our army is behind its belly, it is beneficial for our army to solve Cao Cao first, and at the same time, Yuan Shao should have the most personal experience of Fang Zhiwen's harm, he will not fail to understand the benefits of forming an alliance with us."

Gongsun Zhan smiled bitterly when he heard this, I am afraid that the most experienced experience is not Yuan Shao, but himself, but Dong Zhao is right, the contradiction between Yuan Shao and Fang Zhiwen is irreconcilable, even after defeating Cao Cao, Yuan Shao will also turn back against Fang Zhiwen, therefore, the three parties do have the basis for an alliance, as for Liu Bei, although Liu Bei and Fang Zhiwen do not border, Liu Bei will not understand the harm of Fang Zhiwen, at least, he will be happy to see it.

Thinking about the gains and losses, Gongsun Chan had an idea in his heart, and his waist seemed to be straighter, and his voice was loud and powerful.

"Shiqi's suggestion is very good, and Gongren's supplement is even more subtle, and the general decided to adopt this suggestion, so he asked the two of them to go to Chang'an and Qianxian respectively, and be sure to persuade Sima Fang and Yuan Shao to form an alliance against Cao Cao.1

"No1

"Absurd1 Cao Cao threw the white silk with the information written in his hand on the desk, and the expression on his face was very strange, as if he was laughing and snickering.

Xi Zhicai looked curiously at the white silk on the table, Cao Cao raised his hand, and motioned for Xi Zhicai to go to caries by himself

Xi Zhicai stepped forward, picked up the white silk on the desk, looked at it carefully, frowned slightly, paused for a moment, turned his head to look at Cao Cao who was looking at the birds on the dead trees outside the window, and said, "Lord, this is intended for Youzhou 1."

"Hehe, isn't it, these people are really interesting, they can think of this method, and they really want to see if Fang Zhiwen eats this set."

"Lord, Fang Zhiwen has never suffered a loss, and he still wants to occupy the righteousness, but this time people are united to deal with us, what can he Fang Zhiwen do?"

"A military alliance is one, and all those who oppose these three parties are not their enemies? Will Fang Zhiwen understand this? ”

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly: "Of course he understands, but he understands it, but he doesn't have the reputation to do it, and the person who came up with this trick is indeed smart."

"It may not be the same, people who think they are smart often fall at the feet of smarter people, you and I will look at it with long eyes, Fang Zhiwen has always been the master who does not suffer, and if it is not clear, it will definitely come to the dark."

"Dark? Is it a thief? This trick may not be good for Gongsun Zhan1

Cao Cao squinted at the birds combing their feathers on the branches, and smiled: "Zhicai, you also underestimate Fang Zhiwen, what kind of person is Fang Zhiwen, he is a demon, there are only things you can't think of, there is nothing he can't do, this time Gongsun Zhan will definitely be unlucky." It's just that these guys use us as stepping stones, insulting our own reputation, and we must condemn them. Tomorrow, when I go to the court, I will ask for a decree to punish these rebellious people who do not respect the Son of Heaven. ”

"Punishment? Oh, does the lord want to issue an edict for Fang Zhiwen to send troops to fight against Gongsun Zhan? ”

"Exactly! Whether he accepts the order or not, then Gongsun Chan and the others will definitely have trouble sleeping, hehe"

This year's winter seems to be very cold, the Miyun staff has lit a brazier, there is a faint carbon fragrance in the room, a little dry and hot air, staying for a long time makes people's nose dry, not very comfortable.

Tian Feng always unconsciously reached out to rub his itchy nose, and the careful Tian Zhi asked someone to bring a basin of water and put it in the house to relieve the very dry air, while pouring everyone a cup of new tea, so that the hot steam moistened everyone's nasal cavity.

"What do you think about Gongsun Zhan, Sima Fang and Yuan Shao forming a military alliance to jointly fight Cao Cao?"

"Isn't this obvious, it's fake to fight Cao Cao, and it's true to want to fight us! It seems that Gongsun Chan is very scared 1 Li Ru sipped the tea and said in a somewhat vague voice.

"Can you not be afraid? Taiyuan and Shangdang are under the blade of our army, and it would be strange if he didn't do anything.1 Kuai Liang nodded in agreement.

"In other words, both of them believe that the purpose of the military alliance of these three is us, so the purpose of this military alliance is defense or offense?"

"Defend it, Yuan Shao is powerless to attack now, Gongsun Chan can't dodge, Sima Fang, shouting loudly in his mouth, but his hands are not moving, each with a ghost, how can he attack? The ultimate goal is to deter our army. ”

Tian Feng nodded, took up the pen and wrote the opinion of the staff department on the back of this document, after writing, Tian Feng squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Guess, how does the main guild deal with this matter?" ”

"The lord must ask us what we have in mind first, Yuan Hao should think of the staff department's suggestion first."

"It's your turn to start on the left, Xeno, your suggestion."

"I think the key to allowing activities such as Inhumans and thieves is not to let Gongsun Chan have the illusion that we can't do anything about him, which will have a negative impact on our strategy to advance westward in the future."

"Childish?"

"My lord, Lord Kuai is right, we can't let Gongsun Chan miscalculate, otherwise it will be difficult for us to force Gongsun Chan to move his center of gravity westward, but just using Inhumans and small-scale kleptocratic activities, I'm afraid it will be difficult to produce the desired effect, after all, Taiyuan and the eastern part of Shangdang are originally militarized areas."

Kuai Liang thought for a while, nodded and said, "Indeed, but it is not feasible to use the army, and the division is nameless.1

Li Ru smiled and said: "It may not be that the teacher will be unknown, Cao Cao, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, will definitely give us the name of the teacher, but the lord will not agree to send troops, which violates the consistent code of conduct of our expedition to the Northern General's Mansion." ”

Everyone nodded together, it was indeed too much to use the army, but it was really not easy to move the army to give Gongsun Chan a proper warning.

.

Fang Zhiwen handed the wooden knife in his hand to Taishi Zhaorong on the side, asked her to continue practicing with Fang Yi, took the towel handed over by Xiao Ning, wiped the sweat on his face casually, and walked towards Tian Feng.

"Is there a summary of today's information? Why did you deliver it in person? ”

"Because there's something we're not sure about, and I want to hear my lord's opinion."

"Oh? That's a rarity, what is it? ”

Tian Feng pointed to the scroll in Fang Zhiwen's hand, and motioned Fang Zhiwen to look at it himself, Fang Zhiwen took Tian Feng to the side of the pavilion, Xiao Ning poured hot tea for the two, Tian Feng held it in both hands, and sniffed the fragrance of tea while keeping warm.

Fang Zhiwenzhan looked at the scroll, and he looked at it very carefully.

"Gongsun Chan must have thought that he was very clever and completed the military alliance without saying anything, and if our army wanted to move him, he would face the pressure of a military alliance1

"Well, it's true that tǐng is smart, hehe, at least our staff can't think of an effective way to teach him a proper lesson for the time being."

"If you can't do it militarily, can't you use other methods?"

"This, we are unlikely to carry out an economic and trade blockade against the three at the same time, on the contrary, this approach may accelerate the escalation of their economic and trade relations, and the three have a vast territory and a large population, so it is difficult to have anything to get stuck in their necks, so I think the gains outweigh the losses with a trade war."

"Trade war? No, no, that's a lose-lose thing, now the economic form is heavily dependent on land, in fact, you have land, you can't do anything, the trade war is just talk, don't take it seriously. ”

"Then the other way the lord said it is"

"Don't worry about this yet, wait until I'm sure."

Fang Zhiwen smiled weirdly, Tian Feng looked at Fang Zhiwen in surprise, #
