Chapter 501 Player's Choice

Kong Rong's choice has actually been informed to Fang Zhiwen a long time ago, on the night of Cao Cao's arrival, Kong Rong met with Fang Zhiwen late at night and informed Fang Zhiwen of his choice, since everyone is doing the same thing, then Kong Rong will of course choose a friend he believes in, and Fang Zhiwen has always been trustworthy, so there is no need to bet on Cao Cao's body anymore.

Therefore, the meeting between Fang Zhiwen and Cao Cao can be regarded as a preliminary showdown, the two sides have opened the first hole card on the table, the first contact in politics and diplomacy is basically completed, and the next thing is to rely on strength to speak, who is in charge of Qingzhou can no longer be decided only by mouth and morality.

Cao Cao left Pingshou the next day and returned to the front line of Linzi, now the significance of Linzi to contain the aliens is no longer important, it is time to take Linzi in one fell swoop.

Fang Zhiwen, on his side, also quickly convened a guild of players participating in the Beihai Covenant to inform and discuss Cao Cao's proposal to recover Donglai and Chengyang.

"Lord Fang, Master Kong, I don't know what the two of you think of Cao Cao's suggestion?"

"Hehe, our views naturally depend on everyone's opinions, and today I invite you to come here, isn't it just to discuss this issue?"

Fang Zhiwen's words blocked the representatives of the player forces attending the meeting, in fact, the players present are basically the masters of Donglai County and Chengyang County, of course, the process of integrating these two counties is not over yet, but it cannot be denied that on the territory of these two counties, the intentions of these people are enough to affect the ownership of the two counties.

But can this kind of thing be brought to the meeting? Could it be that we can directly tell Fang Zhiwen and Kong Rong that the Yellow Turban Army in these two counties is actually controlled by us, and there is no need to attack and recover, which will damage our interests, which is not good.

Such words are obviously unspeakable, although they also know it. Maybe what they are doing in private, these two smiling bigwigs know, but even if they know. This kind of thing cannot be talked about in the open.

Seeing everyone looking at each other, Fang Zhiwen felt a little funny, and Kong Rong on the side also smiled. The thoughts behind the power of these players, the two of them are clear.

In fact, if Kong Rong proposed a method of recruiting An, under the pressure of Cao Cao, Fang Zhiwen and Kong Rong joining forces, most of these player forces would accept it, but what about after Zhao'an? Who will manage the territory, this is not a casual matter, Kong Rong does not have so many talents in his hands, nor does he have so much military power to control this large piece of land.

If the management is weak, it will end up being a pattern of rebellion, and at that time, it will not only repeatedly consume money, food and materials. For the people, it is also a disaster, so Kong Rong and Fang Zhiwen have never tried to recruit An.

On the other hand, even if Cao Cao can defeat these two counties, he will also face this kind of problem. In the end, he reverted to the repeated battles with the aliens, so the core of Cao Cao's suggestion was simply aimed at Kong Rong, he wanted to kidnap Kong Rong to his chariot, as for the life and death of the people in these two counties. Cao Cao didn't take it very seriously.

Fang Zhiwen swept around, and saw that everyone was not easy to speak, so he took the initiative to break the deadlock: "Since everyone doesn't want to say it, then I'll ask directly." Are you in favor of this proposal or against? If Cao Cao insists on going his own way, how will you respond? ”

"Of course, this is not in favor, now that the Inhuman forces in Donglai and Chengyang counties have a considerable scale, it will inevitably take a lot of effort to capture them, not to mention the manpower and material resources consumed, and we will not get benefits from it, only losses, therefore, I think everyone is against it."

The words of this representative are very universal, and the message of 'only losses' implied in the words is very clear, if Cao Cao's suggestion cannot be stopped, these people will definitely lag behind, even if they can't win Cao Cao and Fang Zhiwen on the frontal battlefield, they will create huge problems for the two in terms of logistics and other aspects, so the word 'only losses' is very subtle.

Fang Zhiwen naturally understood the deputy's words, nodded and said, "So, everyone is basically opposed?" ”

"That's right1

"That's right, it's no good to fight, who wants to fight1

"Agree 1

Once the matter was broken, everyone readily expressed their objections.

Fang Zhiwen smiled secretly: "However, if the Yellow Turban Army of these two counties is left alone and allowed to develop, one day these people will not be satisfied with the territory of the two counties, what should you do then?" ”

"This ...... When the time comes, the water and the earth will cover the troops, and the soldiers will block it.1

"Hit 1

Kong Rong sneered, these irresponsible statements are obviously nonsense, when the time comes, I am afraid that you will also cooperate with the outside world, and then eat Beihai County, and even the entire Qingzhou!

Fang Zhiwen also snorted coldly and said: "You are just playing your own calculations, I'm afraid it's not a good thing, everyone is afraid that everyone knows what the situation of these two counties is, and I don't say what the purpose of Cao Cao's suggestion is, but it is the duty of our government to fight the Yellow Turban Thieves and quell the rebellion, so no matter whether you accept Cao Cao's suggestion or not, we will attack these two counties at the right time." ”

Fang Zhiwen's words once again made the scene fall into an embarrassing cold scene, these player representatives were woken up by Fang Zhiwen's words, indeed as Fang Zhiwen said, this world can't only you calculate others, and others don't count you, the appeal of interests will inevitably be counter-appealed, and the final compromise game is the true face of politics.

"What Lord Fang said is reasonable, since we have already expressed our opposition to Cao Cao's suggestion, then please Lord Fang and Master Kong also talk about their plans."

"Very well, the purpose of Cao Cao's proposal is to tie Pingshou to his own chariot, but this is something that both Master Kong and I firmly oppose, so we will not agree to Cao Cao's proposal. However, we will support Cao Cao's military campaign against the Yellow Turban Thieves, and we will respond by attacking Chengyang County. Split Donglai County from the Yellow Turban Thieves of Mount Tai and cooperate with Cao Cao to surround Mount Tai, this is our plan. ”

The players in the meeting exchanged glances with each other, it seems that the good days of this period are coming to an end, but also, how can the aborigines allow the player's power to expand unlimitedly!

Of course, the idea of the indigenous people is actually a little too sensitive. They may not know that the situation in Chengyang and Dongnae County is still very chaotic, and the population growth is also in trouble. If you want to develop, unless you complete the integration immediately, and then spend a few years to develop with all your strength, it will be possible to confront the coalition forces of Fang Zhiwen, Kong Rong and Cao Cao.

Now if the three of them are united, they can definitely sweep the entire Qingzhou. Even the Yellow Turban Army on Mount Tai was not spared, but Fang Zhiwen and Kong Rong did not choose to fully cooperate with Cao Cao, what was their purpose? Is it to guard against Cao Cao, who is more terrible than the Inhuman forces in their eyes?

With such a major decision, it is impossible for the representatives of these player forces to express their stance immediately, this point Fang Zhiwen and Kong Rong are naturally clear, today's meeting is just a ventilation meeting, and the next meeting will be the time to decide the player's attitude and choice.

"Zhiwen, do you really think that Inhumans will compromise?"

"Definitely. In fact, if we fully cooperate with Cao Cao, the entire Qingzhou may be easily won, although the subsequent development may be just as chaotic, and even we and Cao Cao will have a big fight. However, this possibility will still scare the Inhuman forces. Compared to the current relatively stable situation, they will definitely choose the plan with the least impact, our intention is only to limit the development of the Inhumans as much as possible, and Cao Cao's proposal is an attempt to destroy the Inhuman forces of the Yellow Turban camp, this choice is easy to make1

Said a long paragraph. Fang Zhiwen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, but the tea was a little cold.

"Inhumans are so restless1

"Hehe, if you are divided, you will not be an alien."

"Cao Cao's approach may have the intention of plundering the population, and he may not have the strength to control these two counties, right?"

"That's for sure, in fact, if Cao Cao plundered a large number of people of the Inhuman forces, it would also be tantamount to seriously weakening the Inhuman forces, and in the same way, we must do the same thing. However, compared to this, I am more concerned about whether we have enough suppressive power against the aliens around us. ”

Kong Rong looked at Fang Zhiwen with some surprise, and then had a feeling of sudden realization: "It turns out that Zhiwen asked me to shrink my strength and strengthen the construction of a few cities, because I was worried about the strangers in Beihai County?" ”

"Yes, at that time, Brother Wenju's strength was limited, and if he didn't establish a strong city to speed up the cultivation of his own strength, sooner or later it would become a delicacy in the mouths of strangers."

"I see, I can understand Cao Cao's thoughts."

"Hehe, Cao Cao's idea may not have been formed a long time ago, but after Jinan became more and more comfortable. Now the population of Jinan is almost divided up by the Inhuman forces, and even the population of the three counties in the northwest has no share of Cao Cao, so Cao Cao had such an idea when the Battle of Linzi was about to end, since he controlled two strong cities in Qingzhou, then he could rely on this to establish a strong army, and Brother Wen Ju was the prey he fancied, as for the population of those two counties, it was also the food in Cao Cao's eyes. ”

Kong Rong glanced at Fang Zhiwen, who looked at him with a compassionate look, and was secretly grateful in his heart, although Fang Zhiwen also had his purpose in helping him like this, but no matter what, Fang Zhiwen really helped himself, and also helped more than one million people in the three cities of Pingshou, Duxian and Lingshou, which Kong Rong would never forget.

"So what will Cao Cao do next when he comes south this time empty-handed? If we attack Chengyang County on our own, will we be thwarted by the light and dark sides of the Inhumans? ”

"Cao Cao, he will definitely take Linzi as soon as possible, and then draw out the troops, since he can't get the population from Brother Wen Ju, then he should go to the Yellow Turban Army to get 1

Kong Rong nodded, Fang Zhiwen looked sideways at the huge map hanging on the side, nodded in the void and continued: "As for Chengyang County, I have ordered Gao Shun and Tian Feng to lead their troops south, 20,000 heavy cavalry, 20,000 assault cavalry, Chengyang County has no forces that can stop me, even if I count these alien forces in Beihai County, I can still crush them, I think they will make the right choice." ”

Fang Zhiwen quietly exuded a powerful momentum on the mountain, and even Kong Rong was a little moved, and quickly diverted the topic: "Then the purpose of Zhiwen?" ”

"O population! When the time comes, the two of us will share it, and as for the territory, it will be better to throw it back to the aliens, dilute their human resources, and at the same time not have to bear the burden on us, hehe. ”

"Hehe, you! It's really irresponsible, 1 unfinished rq! ~!
