Under the rule of Jizhou, at the intersection of the Bohai Sea and the river, there was Chengping City.

This place was personally selected by Guo Tu, which is close to the Bohai Kingdom, but it is not in the Bohai Sea.

is close to the Bohai Kingdom, which can make Yuan Shao unwary, so as not to make a fool of the fish.

is not in the Bohai Sea, so as not to cause Yuan Shao to suddenly have murderous intentions, he Han Fu has become a fish in the net.

In short, Jizhou Mu Hanfu is extremely satisfied with this place.

He also made a heavy promise to Guo Tu, as long as Yuan Shao was successfully restrained this time, this Bohai Sea would be handed over to him Guo Tu in the future.

Guo Tu is naturally grateful.

Now Jizhou Mu Hanfu had already come to the lobby where the banquet was about to be held a few days in advance, and he was looking at the Liangzhou man in front of him.

Thin eyes, short beard, not very tall, but extremely strong.

This person is the Liangzhou Juyi in Guo Tu's mouth at the beginning.

Ju Yijiu has been in Liangzhou for a long time, and he has been deeply harmonious with the Qiang people's tactics, with hundreds of parts, and he has the essence of tactics.

It's just that Han Fu has never paid attention to military affairs, so this person has not been reused over the years.

"I didn't look carefully at the beginning, but now it seems that Ju Jun is really a strong man, and he has suffered you these days before."

Ju Yi looked respectful, "It was just the state pastor's consideration of a certain before, and a certain person knows it."

Han Fu nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, yes, you can think of my good intentions, and it's not in vain that I value you so much. This time it has happened, and naturally your wealth is indispensable."

Ju Yi naturally responded.

"Are you sure you can deal with the two of them? Both of them are rare enemies on the battlefield and extremely difficult to deal with. Thinking that Yuan Benchu had no fear and dared to agree to this meeting, most likely because of these two people."

Ju Yi smiled. "Where there are thousands of enemies on the battlefield, they are nothing more than ordinary people. This time, the righteous will kill the two of them, so as to make the king congratulate."

Han Fu laughed out loud, "If it really solves my heart disease, I won't be able to benefit you in the future."

………………

A few days later, Yuan Shao came to Chengping City.

Sure enough, as Han Fu expected, what Yuan Shao brought was only the second general Yan Wen, plus a few guards.

Han Fu personally went out of the city to greet him, and Yuan Shao saw that Zhou Mu personally went out of the city to greet him, so he was naturally flattered.

The banquet in the city has already been prepared, just waiting for Yuan Shao to come.

The two of them walked side by side on the long street of Chengping.

The people in the city gathered on both sides of the long street, either bright or dark, looking at this child of the Yuan family, who is now known even as a peddler and pawn.

The Yuan family is already famous all over the world, and the incident of cutting down Dong is tantamount to making Yuan Shao's reputation even better.

Han Fu turned his head to look at Yuan Shao and said with a smile, "The original name is now famous all over the world, which is really enviable."

Yuan Shao also smiled and said, "I also want to thank the state pastor for helping me raise the army, otherwise how would there be Shao today."

Han Fu smiled, and Yuan Shao stopped talking.

When he came to the county office, Han Fu and Yuan Shao had a banquet and sat down as guests.

At the wine table, Han Fu was the only one on Han Fu's side, and Ju Yi was standing behind Han Fu.

On Yuan Shao's side, there was only Xu You, and the guard behind him was the second general Yan Wen.

At this time, the wine and food had been served, Han Fu took the lead in taking a drink, and said with a smile: "I was really surprised to be able to come to the banquet this time. There had been some conflict in the border land before, and I thought that even if I didn't meet each other, I might as well have come to the banquet so easily. Now it seems that it is indeed me who has the heart of a villain and spends the belly of a gentleman. I'll punish myself three times first."

After that, Han Fu drank three cups in a row.

Yuan Shao also accompanied him for a cup, and said with a smile: "At the beginning, Shao was persecuted by Dong thieves, there was no way out on all sides, and the family and country were in a dilemma.

At the banquet, no one else spoke, just listened to what the two said.

Han Fu was stunned, but he quickly hardened his heart again.

He was silent for a moment, and no longer fought with Yuan Shao, "Since that's the case

, why did you want to plot against me Jizhou in the first place?"

He said it so bluntly, but it made the rhetoric that Yuan Shao originally prepared useless.

Yuan Shao smiled, raised his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, and he smiled bitterly, "Since the words have been said here, then you and I will make it clear."

"For example, if there is chaos today, although the Son of Heaven is presiding over Luoyang, all the princes in the world understand it. The Son of Heaven in Luoyang, there are no soldiers and no generals, and the only Huangfu Song, who has troops, has to be stationed in Chang'an to prevent the Liangzhou soldiers from rebelling, and he can't restrain the princes. At most, it's just like Zhou Tianzi in the past."

Yuan Shao raised his finger and pointed at Han Fu, "Jizhou, the rich land of the world, the husband is not guilty, and Huaibi is guilty. You Han Fu is just a middle-aged person, but you occupy Dazhou, and Jizhou will fall into the hands of others sooner or later. Rather than cheapen others, it is better to put it in my hands."

Han Fu shook his head with a smile when he heard this, and he stood up, "In terms of background, I really can't compare to the Yuan family of your fourth and third dukes. It's just about ability, Yuan Benchu, I may not be under you! Your coming to the appointment today is proof that you are only so wise."

"Could it be that you think that you are the son of the Yuan family, and there is Yan Wener by your side, so I don't dare to touch you! You're too arrogant, Yuan Benchu, have you ever been defeated!"

Yuan Shao was not ashamed at all in the face of Han Fu's accusation, he also stood up, his gaze was calmly opposite Han Fu, "Wenjie, this is also the reason why I say that you are mediocre. It's easy for a mediocre person like you to overestimate your own abilities and think you're in control. And such thoughts will only make you lose your life in vain, and you don't even know where you will be defeated."

Han Fu couldn't hold back his smile anymore, and stared at Yuan Shao deadly, "Yuan Benchu, put away the arrogance of your family!" I want you to understand that today I am victorious."

He turned to look at Ju Yi, "Ju Yi, take Yuan Shao down for me!"

Suddenly, dozens of soldiers poured into the lobby.

Ju Yi personal guard, euphorbia.

Seeing this, Yuan Shao just smiled and spread his hands.

Ju Yi stood up, drew his knife, looked at Yuan Shao, and said coldly, "Yuan Bohai, do you still remember what should happen to me?"

Yuan Shao smiled: "Naturally remember."

Han Fu sensed that something was wrong, but the next moment, Ju Yi's knife was already across his neck.

Ju Yi's face was grim and he smiled, "Don't blame me. It's really that Yuan Bohai's price is too high."

Han Fu looked around the room, but found that Guo Tu was still sitting still, and no armor soldier stepped forward to hold him hostage.

Even if he is reckless, he can figure out the key.

Han Fu said hatefully, "Guo Wenze, you betrayed me!"

Guo Tu drank all the wine in the cup, and then slowly looked up at Han Fu, "I'm not the only one, most of the advisors under the king's account have already taken refuge in Yuan Bohai. It's not that we are ruthless, but it's just that we are mediocre, and it's really embarrassing. As Fang Cai said at the beginning, Jizhou is in the hands of the envoy, and sooner or later it will fall into the hands of others."

Han Fu sneered, "You're just planning for the family, and what you said is so righteous and awe-inspiring. I only hate that I haven't listened to Tian Feng's words!"

Guo Tu smiled, "What the envoy said is true, but the mediocre will blame others for their faults, and the strong will reflect on themselves."

He turned his head to look at Yuan Shao, "Am I right? Jizhou Pastor."

Yuan Shao laughed, "That's true."

He waved his hand, and Ju Yi dragged Han Fu, who was still scolding, out.

Yuan Shao poured Guo Tu a glass of wine with his own hands, "Wen Ze, how is the matter in Jizhou?"

Guo Tu smiled: "Just wait for Benchu to reach out and take it."

Yuan Shao laughed.

………………

A few days later, Yuan Shao entered Jizhou, and the Jizhou family opened the door to welcome him.

And Yuan Shao did not kill Han Fu after occupying Jizhou, but only gathered the power in his hands and put him under house arrest in Yecheng.

And as Yuan Shao gradually grasped the power of Jizhou, there was a small thing in Yecheng that was not a big deal.

The capital official appointed by Yuan Shao engaged in Zhu Han and Han Fu had a grudge, and Han Fu despised this person back then.

Now Han Fu's power is gone, Zhu Han

First, he wanted to avenge the old revenge of the past, and secondly, he wanted to ask the new master Yuan Shao for credit, so he led troops to surround Han Fu's residence and broke the legs of Han Fu's eldest son.

When Yuan Shao learned of this, he immediately killed Zhu Han in anger.

Han Fu was worried that Yuan Shao would take his life sooner or later, but now that this incident happened, he escaped from Jizhou with the only remaining connections in the city.

said that it was a big deal, Han Fu was the previous Jizhou pastor, and Zhu Han acted like this, it was inevitable that Yuan Shao wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Han Fu in order to prevent future troubles.

said that it was a trivial matter, Han Fu was a former Jizhou pastor in the end, and now he has vested interests, and he will not turn his face against Yuan Shao for him.

…………

"You're having a good time. Now it is rumored everywhere in the city that you secretly ordered Zhu Han to attack and kill Han Fu, but I am afraid that you will not be able to wash it by jumping into the Yellow River."

In the state capital, Xu You looked to the side as if he had changed to Yuan Shao, who was just fishing.

Yuan Shao retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "Why do you want to wash?"

Xu Yu restrained his smile, "Did you really secretly make him do it? You also said that Han Fu is just a middle-aged person, and it is difficult to achieve great things. Keeping him can also win the hearts of the people in Jizhou. Even if you want to kill him, now is not the time! How could you not understand?"

[In view of the general environment,

Yuan Shao smiled, "I naturally understand, and I didn't order Zhu Han to do this."

Xu You said coldly, "But you guessed that he would do this."

Yuan Shao nodded, "Yes, I guessed it. With this person's heart, he will definitely take revenge on Han Fu."

Xu You sighed, "Originally, you were too anxious."

Yuan Shao slowly closed the pole, "Ziyuan, there is Bingzhou in the north, and Youzhou in the east. Embattled, how can you not be in a hurry? That's all, they're no match for me."

"But there is Qingzhou Liu Bei lying in the southeast, this is our real opponent."

Xu You nodded, "It is indeed embattled, and you have any plans for the difficult Yanzhou?"

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "Yanzhou is Cao Mengde's bag, and if he wants to take Yanzhou, he must ally with us."

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to suppress him?"

Yuan Shao smiled and shook his head, "With me, he Cao Mengde can only be under me."

…………

Of the eight counties in Yanzhou, most of the counties are old to the Yuan family, and only Liu Dai of Dongping Kingdom has always been not on good terms with Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao made several courtesy and wooed him, but he was ignored by Liu Dai, and even humiliated the envoys.

Yuan Shao has always been lenient on the outside and jealous on the inside, although he showed leniency to Liu Dai, but secretly ordered Dongjun Taishou to get rid of this person.

And now stationed in Dongjun, Dongjun Taishou is the sworn friend who grew up with him and Yuan Shu, Cao Mengde of Qiaoxian County.

Dongjun, Cao Cao's mansion.

Cao Cao was sitting cross-legged drinking with people, and across from him was a young man in ruffled clothes and full of alcohol.

Dian Wei, who is inseparable from Cao Cao on weekdays, is not behind him today, which shows that the person who drinks with Cao Cao is extremely trusted by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao glanced at the young man who was still drinking on the other side, and he was drunk and crazy, which was really an enviable age.

He didn't have a damn about this person's behavior, and talented people often had strange behavior, and it was not strange.

Naturally, first of all, you must be really talented.

Otherwise, he wouldn't mind killing a so-called celebrity.

Since his reputation has never been better, it will not be worse because he killed a celebrity.

He smiled and said, "Fengxiao, you have also read Yuan Benchu's letter. What do you think should be done?"

The young man named Guo Jia on the other side was a talent he had found from Yingchuan not long ago, and he was a resourceful and decisive person.

Originally, what he wanted to accept the most was Xun Or, who had the reputation of "Wang Zuo's talent" since he was a child, but unfortunately Xun Or had been recruited by Liu Bei.

Guo Jia burped, raised his hand and patted his stomach, and said with a smile: "How to deal with this person, didn't the lord already have an idea? Why bother to test me? Even if Yuan Shao doesn't write a letter, it's difficult

Can the Dao Lord look at Yanzhou's piece of fat and not swallow it in his stomach?"

Cao Cao smiled, "Feng Xiao knows me."

Whether it is strategy or temperament, Guo Jia is very much in his heart.

Cao Cao Fu smiled again: "Will the plan come out?"

Guo Jia pointed to the turban spread on the table, and then pointed to the short knife on the side.

"Yellow Turbans and Assassins, of course. In the past, Guangwu founded the country, and there were 28 famous henchmen, and the lord has always loved to read, so you should know that several of them died at the hands of assassins."

"Now Liu Dai is less wise and seeks greatness, and kills Yi'er."

Cao Cao nodded and said with a smile, "What Feng Xiao said is reasonable, but it coincides with me. Counting the days, I must have succeeded by now. As for the person who killed Liu Dai, it will naturally be pushed to the head of the yellow scarf."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "As soon as Liu Dai dies, there will be fewer people in the state who can preside over the overall situation, and it is bound to be chaotic. Bao Xin has always been kind to the lord, and he will definitely invite the lord to Dongping at that time, and now Yanzhou County Shou is mostly from the Yuan family, it is not difficult for the lord to want this Yanzhou pastor, but ......

Cao Cao, "It's just that it will be Yuan Benchu's Yanzhou at that time, not my Cao Mengde's Yanzhou. Even if he occupies the title of Yanzhou Mu, he is nothing more than Yuan Benchu's gatekeeper."

Guo Jia smiled and took a sip of wine.

It's always nice to talk to smart people.

Cao Cao smiled, "Fengxiao just wait and see."

…………

While Cao Cao was planning Yanzhou, Yuan Shu galloped into Yuzhou.

Yuan's protégés are all over the world, and Yingchuan is the place where they gather.

Compared with Cao Cao, who needed to work hard, Yuan Shu easily controlled Yuzhou.

It's just that Yuan Shu's heart is high and ambitious, and the land of one state is naturally not enough to support his ambitions.

At this time, he stared at Yangzhou.

…………

Soon after, Cao Cao succeeded in assassinating Liu Dai and occupied all the land of Yanzhou. It's just that the state sergeant still has a lot of disdain for his eunuch background, and the so-called celebrities in the state have a lot of complaints about him.

Cao Cao is naturally not a person who swallows his anger, and he killed the famous man Bian Rang, who was the leader, and wanted to kill the chickens and monkeys, so as to deter the Yanzhou scholars.

As he wished, the Yanzhou scholars also temporarily succumbed to the butcher's knife.

Now that Cao Cao has temporarily settled down in Yanzhou, he asked people to invite his father Cao Song.

On that day, Cao Cao raised troops in Chenliu, but his father Cao Song was afraid that his defeat would implicate the Cao family, so he left Yanzhou with the rest of his belongings and went to the southeast to join his friends.

Although Cao Cao has never been close to this father, he is a blood relative.

What's more, now that he has some achievements, he naturally wants to let the father who looks down on him know that Cao Apu can also do great things.

Today, he convened everyone to discuss the matter, and when everyone dispersed, Guo Jia, who had to leave first every time, never left.

Cao Cao glanced at it and saw that Guo Jia had some unspeakable look on his face.

He smiled and said, "What else is there to do with Bong-hyo?"

Guo Jia endured it, even if he shouldn't ask, he still opened his mouth, "Now the lord and Yuan Benchu are very close, although they have never formed an alliance, but the princes of the world know it in their hearts. The Yuan brothers have never been on good terms, and not long ago Yuan Shu became an ally with Tao Qian in Xuzhou. Now that the father of the lord has to pass through Tao Qian's Xuzhou when he comes east, I think it is safer for the lord to send someone to meet him in advance."

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and was silent for a moment, "Fengxiao, although Yanzhou is in the Central Plains, it is the land of four wars, and it is not easy to operate here.

Guo Jia asked, "So, does the lord want to be famous?"

Cao Cao nodded, "Tao Qian is a strong person, but at most, he just detains them as chips in his hand, and it shouldn't be life-threatening."

Guo Jia smiled silently, "The lord is really ruthless."

Cao Cao smiled: "If you are not ruthless, how can you do great things."

Guo Jia nodded, "That's the truth."

…………

While the heads of other states changed their banners, Qingzhou in the east was exceptionally quiet.

Since he hit Xun or came to Qingzhou, Liu Bei, who originally had some things to do, was completely idle.

The affairs in the army are related to General Zhang Zhao. And diplomatic and other treacherous things, there are Jia Xu and Liu Ye and so on. The political affairs of the state were handed over by him to Xun or others.

When he first handed over the political affairs to Xun or, because Xun or first came, people in the state had many complaints, especially Guan Yu.

Guan Yu has always looked down on the family, not to mention the Xun family, a famous family in the world, although Xun Yu is in front, no one can guarantee that his uncle is not an embroidered pillow.

Fortunately, Xun or soon proved his talent in political affairs.

Liu Bei even laughed and said that Xun He's ability was not under Xiao He in the past.

Since then, he has been a complete shopkeeper, driving all day long, and wandering around the state with his newlywed wife.

It's rare that he hasn't gone out in the past few days, but has been hiding in the house.

When Jia Xu came to the backyard, he saw his master lying on the table, drawing.

Jia Xu has long been surprised, knowing that his lord often has wonderful ideas.

He walked up to Liu Bei and reported the news he had heard recently to Liu Bei.

Although Liu Bei said that they could make their own decisions, Jia Xu had always been a cautious person, so naturally he would not really make decisions at will.

After Liu Bei heard this, he suddenly smiled, "Cao Cao's father is passing by Xuzhou? Interesting."

He was suddenly a little curious, if Cao Song had not died in Xuzhou, how would he Cao Mengde become famous?
