Chapter 257: Cao Cao: Yanzhou will not send troops
Listening to Yuan Yi's words, Cao Cao was very displeased.
If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were here, they wouldn't feel anything if they were talking to him in such a tone, but Yuan Yu had this qualification?
However, Cao Cao was not directly angry, and said lightly: "As for whether to send troops, I think I have discussed it with the people around me, and then give two more answers, please wait a while." ”
Yuan Yi still wanted to say something, but Zhang Miao saw Cao Cao's displeasure and preemptively said: "We're not in a hurry yet, Meng De, you go and discuss it first." ”
Cao Cao left the main hall and returned to the rear.
Xun Yu and the others were all there at this time, and they also heard their conversation just now.
Yuan Shao's text had already been sent to Cao Cao, and they knew what was going on.
"What do you think?"
Cao Cao frowned and asked, Yu Gong, Yuan's face can't be left unwanted, Yu Zhi, and Yang Zhao have a good relationship, and they have not officially become enemies.
In fact, he didn't want to send troops, not for Yang Zhao, but just to preserve his strength.
For Yang Zhao saving Liu Wei and Empress Dowager He, and still under house arrest in Linzi, he didn't feel anything except surprise.
At this time, the Han family existed in name only.
Yuan Shao must have another purpose in doing this.
"Yuan Benchu's move is to borrow a knife to kill people!"
Xi Zhong said first: "This matter, on the surface, is to save King Hongnong, it is his righteousness to the Han family, but in fact it is his own private matter, they Yuan and Yang Yuanjun have always been at odds, and Yang Yuanjun also mentioned it at the previous banquet." Yuan Benchu borrowed the matter of King Hongnong and called on us to attack Qingzhou, in fact, he wanted to borrow our hand to help him defeat Qingzhou. ”
After a pause, he said again: "Once Qingzhou is taken, who will dare to compete with him?" Qingzhou must be in his pocket, we are just thugs who have been called up! The only person who might fight for it was Yuan Highway, but the Huainan region, which is separated from Qingzhou and Xuzhou and Yanzhou, makes no sense to fight. ”
His words directly penetrated Yuan Shao's thoughts.
Xun Yu and them also think so.
"But the lord once said that we and Yang Yuanjun will become enemies sooner or later."
Cheng Yu mentioned this matter again, which means that he wants to send troops.
Xun Yu shook his head and said: "Yang Yuanjun just saved Yanzhou, if we send troops, it will be unjust, if we help Yuan Benchu to capture Qingzhou, then our enemy in the north will become the more powerful Yuan Benchu." It is better to let Yang Envoy Jun control Qingzhou, contend with Yuan Benchu, and maintain the balance in the north so that we can develop. ”
Chen Qun agreed: "What Wen Ruo said is reasonable! If Yuan Benchu takes Qingzhou, he will gather troops to attack Youzhou, and when he completely occupies the north, he will definitely take advantage of the situation to go south, and the first thing to fight may be our Yanzhou, and we can't send troops to join the alliance. ”
Cao Cao listened and nodded slightly.
Of the four strategists around him, three of them did not agree with Cao Cao's troops.
But he, the Yanzhou pastor, can only control his own soldiers, and the soldiers of the following counties, such as Zhang Miao and Yuan Yi, are not under his control.
They were going to send troops, and he couldn't stop them.
Xi Zhong said again: "The lord can tell them that Yanzhou will not send troops, but the counties will send troops, and we will not stop it!" With the strength of Yuan Boye, Zhang Mengzhuo and others, they are not Yang Yuanjun's opponents. ”
"Zhicai's method works."
Xun Yu said.
Cao Cao said: "Okay, that's how it was decided!" ”
He then returned to the hall.
"Yanzhou will not send troops, and as for you who want to send troops, I will not stop it, so please do it!" Cao Cao said loudly.
When Yuan Yi heard this, he was still unhappy and said: "Cao Yuanjun, are you sure you don't want to send troops?" ”
Cao Cao's face sank, and he shouted: "Come on, send off guests!" ”
Zhang Miao arched his hand and said: "I can understand the thoughts of the envoy, Boye, let's go." ”
He dragged Yuan Yi outside with him.
It doesn't matter whether Yanzhou sends troops or not.
As long as the counties below Yanzhou send troops, Cao Cao does not stop it, it is enough.

Shou Chun.
Yuan Shu also got the text, and immediately gathered everyone to discuss, and first said: "Yang Zhao, that puppet, I have seen that he has been unhappy for a long time, I want to send troops, what do you think?" ”
He has been in the Huainan area, dealing with Liu Biao, Liu Miao and others, and has no time to do anything to Yang Zhao, now the war situation in Huainan is temporarily stable, and Yuan Shao is taking the lead, plus he is famous, so he is naturally unwilling to be lonely.
Yan Xiang first said, "You can send troops." ”
Yang Hong was worried: "It's no problem to send troops, but when the time comes, we may not get any benefits by defeating Qingzhou and killing Yang Zhao." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shu fell into deep thought.
His territory is far away from Qingzhou, and when the time comes, won't it be cheaper for the concubine to be born!
It's unpleasant!
Yuan Jian said: "If the lord is just for revenge, there is no problem in sending troops, if it is for profit, we really can't get benefits by sending troops, unless we rob King Hongnong." ”
"How can it be advantageous to rob people?"
Yuan Shao asked curiously.
Yuan Zhuo explained: "In the past, Dong Zhuo controlled the Son of Heaven, and now Li Dao and Guo Yan are also controlling the Son of Heaven. King Hongnong is the eldest son of the first emperor, snatch people back, restore the throne, and re-ascend the throne, so that the lord can control the Son of Heaven, control the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and command the people of the world. ”
"Well said!"
Yuan Shu seemed to have found the target of the troops, and said with great joy: "Pass the order, gather troops, kill the thief Yang Zhao, and save the Son of Heaven!" ”
Yang Hong worried: "We gathered the army and went north, Liu Biao and Liu Miao took advantage of our emptiness to make a move, how about it?" ”
Yan Xiang said: "You can let Sun Bofu lead the Danyang soldiers to guard Shouchun, Sun Wentai died at the hands of Liu Biao's general Huang Zu, Sun Bofu and Liu Miao also have grievances, Danyang soldiers are known for their bravery, and they are rare elites in the army, and they can defend the Huainan region for the lord." ”
At this time, Sun Ce, after Sun Jian's death, took refuge in Yuan Shu.
"It's decided!"
Yuan Shu said in a loud voice.
He couldn't wait, he wanted to snatch Liu Wei back, control the Son of Heaven, and order the princes.
Huainan's soldiers and horses, under his orders, gathered one after another, prepared grain and grass, and went north to join the alliance.
——
Meanwhile.
Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei also received Yuan Shao's inscriptions.
Although they and Yang Zhao are brothers, Yuan Shao also wants to rebel against them and send troops against Yang Zhao together.
Even if they don't send troops, I hope they don't help Yang Zhao.
"What does Xuande think?"
Gongsun Chan asked.
This document scolded Yang Zhao scoldingly, and pointed out that Yang Zhao was under house arrest, arrogated and rebelled, and was a thief of thieves.
The above content does not matter whether it is true or not.
As long as all kinds of charges are detained on Yang Zhao's head, it is enough, but Yang Zhao's recent news that King Hongnong and the Queen Mother are indeed in Linzi, although they refuted Yuan Shao, it seems to confirm that the content of the text is correct.
Liu Bei, as a relative of the Han family, had a headache when he read the text, and his junior brother did not say a word, he did so many big things, and even held the imperial family hostage, making it difficult for him to do it.
"I don't want to help each other!"
Liu Bei was in a dilemma, and said helplessly: "What Yuan Benchu wrote is true or false, I can't judge, if I help Yuan Benchu, I'm sorry for my junior brother, I helped my junior brother, if it's true, I'm ashamed of Gaozu!" ”
"What does the teacher think?"
Gongsun Chan looked at Lu Zhi next to him.
The teacher has always been loyal and patriotic, and whatever he says, Gongsun Chan will do.
