Gongsun Zhan's idea is actually highly feasible.

Of course, the premise is that Cao Ang did not meddle in the affairs of Liaodong County.

If Cao Ang doesn't come, after Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang join forces and solve Yuan Xi, the two will fight a decisive battle.

When Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are inextricably fought, Gongsun Chan will jump out to clean up the mess.

Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, no matter who they are, their prestige is naturally inferior to Gongsun Zhan.

Then Gongsun Chan can easily take over Yuan Shao's forces, after all, before this, the two of them were still allies, and it is reasonable for Gongsun Chan to take over Yuan Shao's forces.

After occupying Liaodong County and Xuansu County, Gongsun Zhan could send troops to be stationed in the area of western Liaoning, which was the main transportation route for the Central Plains to attack Liaodong.

As long as you hold there, it is equivalent to guarding this Liaodong County and Xuansu County.

Then, Gongsun Chan will have the opportunity to cultivate and recuperate and develop his own power.

The two counties of Liaodong County and Xuansu County are relatively remote here, although it is a troubled time, but before Yuan Shao fled here, there was basically no war here.

Therefore, the population of these two counties is not very large, but there are many young and middle-aged people, and it is easy to replenish the army.

In addition, this side is close to Wuhuan, and you can also catch strong men from Wuhuan to replenish the troops.

This time, Gongsun Chan also saw an opportunity for his re-emergence.

But he didn't know that Cao Ang had now landed in Liaodong County, and he didn't know that Cao Ang was still planning to do something to him.

……

At this time, Liaodong County was also turbulent.

Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, after stationing their troops in about thirty miles west of Xi'an Pingcheng, prepared to enter Xi'an Pingcheng with their personal guards.

In Yuan Tan's camp, Yuan Tan ordered five hundred guards and prepared to take them to Xi'an Pingcheng.

As for Guo Tu, he stayed in the camp to guard, and when Yuan Tan left from Xi'an Pingcheng, he went to pick up Yuan Tan.

In Yuan Shang's camp, the situation was similar.

Feng Ji stayed in Daying to guard, while Yuan Shang himself went to Xi'an Ping with his personal guards.

Before Yuan Shang set off, Feng Ji also lectured to those guards: "This trip to Xi'anping, you must protect the lord, if something happens to the lord, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people!" ”

"Yes!" Five hundred guards made a deafening sound in unison.

These people are all elites under Yuan Shang's command, and their treatment on weekdays is much higher than that of ordinary soldiers, so their combat effectiveness is also a little higher.

Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang all have such an elite force under their three brothers.

Of course, the treatment of these so-called elites in the Cao army is just the treatment of ordinary soldiers, so Yuan Xi's subordinates will defect to Cao Ang so easily.

After all, Cao Jun's treatment is really good in their eyes.

Yuan Shang took people to Xi'an Ping, and when he was leaving, Feng Ji instructed Yuan Shang: "Lord, if anything happens in Xi'an Pingcheng, everything is important to protect yourself!" ”

"Even if you admit defeat temporarily, you have to protect yourself, don't be reckless, everything is in the future!"

When Yuan Shang heard this, he nodded at Feng Ji and said, "Sir, don't worry, with these guards, forgive Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi and don't dare to do anything to me, I'll go first!" ”

After saying this, Yuan Shang took someone and rode away.

At this time, Yuan Tan was also preparing to take people to set off.

Before leaving, Yuan Tan also instructed Guo Tu: "Sir, I will leave the affairs in this camp to you, if I encounter an accident in Xi'an Pingcheng, then I have to ask Mr. for the matter of revenge." ”

When Guo Tu heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lord, before you go, don't say these unlucky words, I believe you will definitely return safely!" ”

Yuan Tan smiled and waved his hand when he heard this, and then set off with people.

Soon, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang met at the gate of Xi'an Pingcheng.

The two have always been at odds, so they are tense as soon as they meet.

"Oh, isn't this my third brother, the contemporary Hu Hai?" Yuan Tan said what Guo Tu had said before mocking Yuan Shang, and directly ridiculed Yuan Shang as Qin II.

When Yuan Shang faced Yuan Tan alone, it was not false at all.

"If I am Qin II, then what are you?" Yuan Shang retorted disdainfully, and then the two mocked each other at the city gate.

As for the guards they brought, they were also tense at this time, and they had the meaning of doing something if they didn't agree.

Lu Bu, who was hiding on the side, looked at Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, who were arguing with each other, and pouted disdainfully: "What are these two things, how can they fight with children?" ”

Cao Jun on the side heard Lu Bu's words, and nodded with deep sympathy.

At this time, Lu Bu was also very helpless, his task was originally to wait for Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang to enter the city and control the city gate.

As a result, the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang quarreled directly at the city gate, which made him have to stay in place.

Finally, Lu Bu was a little impatient with the others.

I saw him say to a lieutenant general on the side: "You go to Mr. Fengxiao to report the news, and say that Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have come, but the two of them quarreled at the city gate and delayed entering the city, so let him think of a way." ”

"Yes, Wenhou." The lieutenant general answered, and then hurriedly went to Guo Jia to report the news.

At this time, Guo Jia was telling Yuan Xi what he should do after Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang came.

I saw Guo Jia sitting there, shaking a crow feather fan, and talking eloquently: "Second Prince Yuan, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have sent messengers to inform them that the two of them will arrive here today." ”

"When the time comes, Yuan Ergongzi, you just need to treat them well, if you can get them drunk, it's best, if not, then you will naturally let General Hansheng take action."

"Okay, then everything will be arranged by Mr. Fengxiao." Yuan Xi said with a smile.

At this time, the deputy general also hurriedly ran in and reported the situation at the city gate to Guo Jiayu.

"Mr. Fengxiao, then Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang have already arrived at the gate of the city."

Guo Jia looked at the deputy general and didn't even look at Yuan Xi, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

Then, Guo Jia continued to ask: "Then where are the two of them now?" ”

The adjutant general's face stiffened when he heard this, and then he continued to speak: "The two of them are still arguing at the city gate, and Wen Hou can't come forward, so he asked Mr. Mo to ask Mr., what should I do now?" ”

When everyone heard the deputy general's words, they all looked at Yuan Xi with strange faces. (End of chapter)
