Wang Lang immediately gave Xun Chen a task, wrote an article, denounced Yuan Tan, and Liu Bei ignored the hard-won people's happy life, deliberately provoked war, and called on the people to respond to the orders of General Chengbei to gather and prepare for war. The so-called self-help helps him, God helps him, and a happy life depends on himself to protect him, and he cannot rely on others. Raising troops for a thousand days and using troops for a while is the time when the whole people are soldiers and attacking the enemy.

Xun Chen was a little surprised at Wang Lang's attitude. Wang Lang was a great scholar, how could he say such things? But after thinking about it, he realized that even the older generation of famous officials like Yang Biao and Huang Wan changed their positions, supported Sun Ce's new policy, and even wrote the history of the official system to reflect on the past. What could Wang Lang not change? He was already polite if he did not bluntly accuse the court of provoking trouble.

Xun Chen suddenly understood what Zhong Yao meant. Sun Ce’s new policy did not exclude scholars. If he wanted to rebel, he could not live without scholars and was more dependent on scholars. Scholars, like land, are the core of the new policy. Land cannot be concentrated in the hands of aristocratic families, and scholars cannot be limited to the saints’ scriptures, but should have a higher horizon. As for what the realm above saints is, he has not considered it.

While considering this issue, Xun Chen was ordered to write an essay. He did not dare to be careless. First, Wang Lang was knowledgeable and could tell whether the article was well written at a glance. Second, he asked Sun Ce's new policy to achieve the achievements of his new policy. Although there was not a single person in Yuzhou who knew the text and verbal, the literacy rate was very high. There must be people in the mile who could read newspapers and talk about newspapers, and more than one of them. His articles would be heard in everyone's ears and would be included in the collection in the future. If they were written randomly, it would be a matter of laughing at them for the rest of their lives.

Xun Chen wrote articles very seriously. After reviewing them by Wang Lang, he delivered them to the printing workshop for printing, and then sent them to various counties, counties and townships with quick postal transmission. Zhuge Liang presided over the reporting service in Runan at the beginning of the year, and the relevant procedures were already complete and smooth. Xun Chen's articles were handed over on the first day, and the samples were visible the next day, and within five days it could be transmitted to every place in Yuzhou and to the ears of every people.

Xun Chen's article is not gorgeous, with a concise and straightforward word, but it is sharp and profound, and is very inflammatory. Once published, it spread quickly. After Man Chong saw the article, he was very satisfied and ordered the seal shop to print tens of thousands of copies and send someone to Yanzhou to distribute it.

Cao Ren, who was in charge of military affairs, quickly got some newspapers. After reading the article above, Cao Ren was scared and sweated. Man Chong used the general of the Yuzhou Governor to fight against the north and the military parade in the state. He had already smelled the atmosphere of war. Now that he saw such an article again, he could be sure what Man Chong wanted to do: this would be a defensive battle mobilized by the whole nation.

Man Chong will not attack easily, but he will never show mercy when invades. Letting ordinary people see that their homes are destroyed will arouse the fighting spirit of the people, and the invaders will suffer a tenacious counterattack. Yuzhou will train troops every winter, not only will the young and middle-aged men of appropriate age participate, but there are also many women. Field battles may not be as good as the army that fights all year round, but more than enough to defend the city. In addition, Man Chong's infantry and cavalry directly controlled, the battlefield in Yuzhou will be a quagmire, and once you step in, it will be difficult to escape unscathed.

Cao Ren did not dare to be negligent and immediately sent two newspapers to Cao Ang.

——

Changyi, the prefecture of the prefecture.

Chen Gong sat in the middle, Mao Jie, Wang Yu and others sat on both sides. Some looked red and their hair was bulging, while others looked depressed and listless.

After a few days of argument, there was no result. Between two strong enemies, Yanzhou was in a dilemma. Supporting Yuan Tan and entering Yuzhou was torn apart with Sun Ce. After a fierce battle, Yanzhou would definitely be abolished. Supporting Sun Ce and counterattacking Yuan Tan not only had the risk of land being taken away, but also had to face Yuan Tan's 200,000 army.

Two hundred thousand, it’s heartbreaking to think about it.

After several consecutive days of discussion, Cao Ang did not show up. What is his attitude is actually not important. The key is the attitude of the Yanzhou family, that is, the attitude of these people in the hall. What they decided to do, and Cao Ang had almost no room for bargaining except for adoption. Without the support of the Yanzhou family, he could really control no more than three thousand troops.

When the two opinions were stalemate, some people became anxious and felt that Cao Ang, the governor of Yanzhou, was too relaxed and ignored anything. People in Yanzhou were confused, so why didn't he worry? His father Cao Cao served the court, he married Sun Ce's sister, and the father and son separated two camps, and were able to do everything. Is it so simple?

"When you are living and dying, the envoy Cao avoids seeing each other. What kind of morality is it to marry and teach your children every day?" A powerful man below said indignantly: "In my opinion, I simply killed Mrs. Sun and fought with Sun Ce to the end."

"Hmph!" Chen Gong snorted: "Don't you have a knife? Go and kill. After killing, run away quickly. The farther you run, the better. Otherwise, your whole family will be buried with Mrs. Sun."

"Uh..." The man's voice was low, but he refused to admit defeat. "Who said we will definitely lose? We have cities, forts, and manors, and it will be no problem to stick to it for a year or two."

"Youwubao? Do you know the story of King Wu attacking the Henan Shijia Manor in the second year of Chuping? Do you want me to tell you?"

The man stopped saying a word, shrank back, muttered a few words in a low voice, but couldn't hear what he was saying. Chen Gong ignored him and turned to Mao Jie, Wang Yu said, "You guys think about it first, I'll go see the envoy. It's not the same thing to drag it like this, it's always necessary to solve it."

Mao Jie, Wang Yu nodded, Chen Gong stood up and entered the back house. Ding Yi stood at the door and saw Chen Gong coming, bowing and bowing to one side. Chen Gong and Cao Ang were both ministers and friends, and it was very convenient to enter and exit the back house, without reporting or accompanying him. Chen Gong took two steps, stopped again, turned around and looked at Ding Yi.

"Zhengli, have you contacted your father recently?"

Ding Yi quickly stepped forward and bowed to him. "There are often letters from home."

"How is the aristocratic family in Pei Kingdom now? Can you still live and work in peace?"

Ding Yi smiled. "There is no problem with living. As for whether you have fun, it depends on what the teacher is talking about."

Chen Gong glanced at Ding Yi, feeling unhappy. Ding Yi was smart, but a little frivolous and conceited. In addition, his eyes were not very good, and his appearance was damaged. He had never been favored by him. The situation is urgent now, and Ding Yi still has time to tell jokes, but he really doesn't know the importance of it. He didn't say anything else, and turned around and walked in. Ding Yi looked at Chen Gong's back, curled his lips, and snorted.

"It turns out that his wisdom is within reach, but his foolishness is beyond reach."

Chen Gong entered the backyard and saw Cao Ang teaching Xiahou Ba in the yard. Xiahou said to practice martial arts. Sun Shangying was holding the child and watching. In the room on the west side, two ladies Ding were talking in front of the window and looked here from time to time. Seeing Chen Gong in, Cao Ang patted Xiahou Ba and Xiahou said to practice on their own, and then came over.

"Brother Gongtai, is there any result?"

"What is the result of the envoy's hope?"

Cao Ang smiled. "You know my decision."

Chen Gong glanced at Sun Shangying. "The public is angry, and someone is anxious. He wants to kill his wife and break with the King of Wu. Can you leave?"

Cao Ang raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes turned cold. "If you want to kill my wife, you must first ask about the knife in my hand. You dare not face a strong enemy, but vent your anger on women and children. Is this the morality of handsome Yanzhou?"

Chen Gong raised his hand and told Cao Ang not to be anxious. "It's just a group of foolish people, not worth mentioning. However, the situation is urgent and cannot be delayed anymore. Can the envoy inform the King of Wu and see if he can make a move. In recent years, the envoys have been in this state, and the king of Wu has had many contacts. The families are not unwilling to support him. However, the industries of all the families have accumulated through hard work for several generations. Isn't they worthy of their ancestors? It's urgent to follow the power and make some adjustments. Why do you have to make trouble all over the world and blood flowing over the pestle..."

"It depends on who is corpses everywhere and blood flows away from the pestle." Cao Ang said lightly.

Chen Gong was stunned and looked at Cao Ang in surprise. It was the first time that Cao Ang talked to him in this tone for so many years with him.

"Empress?"

"Brother Gongtai, do you really think you can threaten the King of Wu?" Cao Ang led Chen Gong to the hall and gave a wink at Xiahou Heng. Xiahou Heng understood and turned around to enter the room. Cao Ang said to Chen Gong: "It is important to be self-aware. You should know very well how much strength Yanzhou has. What you are worried about is Yuan Tan's 200,000 army, but do you know that there are always 200,000 troops stationed around us, but the King of Wu is not very good at himself and has never forced him. If he wanted to seize Yanzhou, Yanzhou would have changed hands long ago."

Chen Gong was a little unhappy. "Why are you talking about Yuzhou?"

Cao Ang didn't say anything, Xiahou Heng walked over, holding two newspapers in his hand, and gently placed them in front of Chen Gong. Chen Gong was familiar with newspapers, but he hadn't read these two newspapers yet. When he saw the date, he was newly published in Yuzhou, not in the five-day issue, but in the special issue. He suddenly felt nervous. When he looked at the headline article, he saw the word "Xun Chen" in the author, and was startled. He didn't bother to talk to Cao Ang and quickly browsed the article.

Halfway through the article, Chen Gong's face turned pale and there was no trace of blood. Even if he was known for his wise and slowness, he could see the murderous intent behind this article. The mobilization of the entire Yuzhou nation was more than 200,000 soldiers. According to the information he understood, there are at least 800,000 households in Yuzhou now. Even if two households send one sold one, it would be 400,000. It is not difficult for Yuzhou to send out 200,000 soldiers. It is not difficult for Yuzhou to defend it locally, without the pain of transportation, and it is easy to defend for three or five months.

Of course, if Sun Ce was ruthless and at all costs, he would attack Yanzhou with these 200,000 troops, although the expenses would increase significantly, they would be able to support it. However, Yanzhou would be in trouble. Except for some county seats, most of the county seats could only last for a few months, let alone those manors and forts.

He visited those giant stone throwers when he went to Pingyu for negotiations with Cao Ang. If Sun Ce threw those giant stone throwers into the battlefield, what kind of docks could not be defeated? I wonder when he used stone throwers to attack the manor of the Nanyang family in Nanyang, who could have resisted for more than ten days? If he replaced these giant stone throwers, it would only take half a day to break a manor. The real time was transportation, not attack.

Before he knew it, a cold sweat broke out from Chen Gong's back.

Cao Ang knocked on the desk lightly and reminded him: "Brother Gongtai, the King of Wu is not unable, but not doing it. It is for great benevolence if he can, and for doing it without relying on it. He is willing to give you time to consider it, so don't think it's wrong to think that he has no choice but to you."
