Chapter two hundred and seventy-third(1/2)
As a father-in-law and as the contemporary head of the Yuan family, the arrogant and arrogant grandson Yuan was of course furious when he heard the reconciliation conditions offered by his son-in-law, whispered, slapped the table and smashed the bench...
..., Oh no, it should be the roar of slapping the table and throwing the cushion, threatening to personally lead an army of 200,000 to attack Qingzhou to teach a lesson for the unworthy son-in-law who dares to blackmail his father-in-law.
The grandson of Yuan Sangong's fortune-telling was naturally firmly opposed by most of the civil and military officials in Jizhou. Although the three princes led by Yuan Shang and Shen Pei were somewhat dissatisfied with Deputy Director Tao's broad appetite, they were also worried that the relationship between Yuan Tao would be completely broken.
It will inevitably affect the fundamental interests of one's own party, so we can only persuade the three Duke of Yuan to calm down and never act impulsively, so that the relatives will hurt and the enemy will be happy! There are also neutral factions led by Ju Su and Cui Yan who also persuade the opposition and request the great
Yuan Sangong calmed down and carefully considered his relationship with Tao. He must not destroy the Yuan Tao relationship that had hoped to be re-bridged because of his temporary aura, and gave Yuan Sangong a free gift to Yuan Sangong's real enemy, Boss Cao.
"Calm down? How do you calm me down?" Grand Yuan Sangong yelled while taking a few photos of the case: "Five thousand war horses, Qingzhou is bounded by Jishui. How can you agree to such a condition? If you agree, the face of the three kings of the fourth generation will be the same?
Where to put it?"
"Don't worry, lord, I think this is just Tao Ying's asking price, lord may as well pay the money." Ju Su suggested: "My minister suggests that lord may either instruct Guo Tu and Tao Ying to bargain with letters, or send another full power to another
The envoy went south to Xuzhou and negotiated a settlement with Tao Ying. Tao Ying had intended to reconcile with our army, and he thought he would make concessions, and our army could also avoid many losses."
"Yes, lord, Mr. Yu's words are reasonable." The two strongest three princes of Shen Pei and Feng Ji also advised: "Our army's mortal enemy is a thief of Cao in Yanzhou, not Tao Ying in Xuzhou. After the Guandu war, our army's vitality is the vital force.
The serious injury is just about to win over Tao Ying for my use. If it breaks with it, it will only be a waste of money for the traitor Cao Cao. The lord might as well make a little concession and bargain with Tao Ying."
After hearing these persuasions, the three dukes of Yuan, who are famous for being soft-hearted, will inevitably be a little moved. However, out of the arrogance of the three dukes of the four generations and the three dukes, the three dukes of Yuan, who loves face, is still a little embarrassed and bargained with his son-in-law. During the hesitation, Yuan,
The third duke suddenly glanced at Yuan Tan, the eldest son who was standing aside without saying a word. He had long been used to the eldest son and his unfilial son-in-law, who was inevitably a little strange. He shouted, "Xian Si, why don't you say anything? Tao
You should ask for the land city of Qingzhou east of the Ji River, what do you mean?"
"This matter is very important, and I dare not speak nonsense." Mr. Yuan Tan was a rare humble person, and even more for the first time, he did not take the opportunity to instigate the Grand Duke Yuan San to go to war with his arch-nemesis brother-in-law.
"I want you to tell me, what do you mean?" Grand Duke Yuan asked again.
"No." Yuan Tan agreed, and asked carefully: "But before the child spoke, the child would dare to ask his father. I didn't know that his father intended to reconcile with Tao Ying. Do you want Yuan Tao to form an alliance to destroy Cao?"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Grand Duke Yuan said angrily: "If my father had no intention of reconciling and forming an alliance with Xuzhou, why should I send Guo Tu to Xuzhou south?"
"The boy understands." Yuan Tan nodded and said in a shocking voice: "Since my father intends to reconcile with Xuzhou, then the boy suggests that the father should not send someone to bargain south, and just agree to Tao Ying's conditions directly."
"What?!" Mr. Yuan Shang's party was stunned and could not believe his ears. Ju Su and other neutral factions were stunned. The Grand Duke Yuan San stood up in surprise. But after a moment of change, the Grand Duke Yuan San was again
He said angrily: "When is it? What are you still saying annoying?"
"The father misunderstood, and the child is definitely not talking irritating." Yuan Tan shook his head and explained: "The child sincerely suggested that the father accept Tao Ying's conditions in full, because the child believed that since the father intended to reconcile with Tao Ying, he would not be able to do so.
Bargaining wastes time and creates more conflicts, it is better to agree to Tao Ying's request at once. In this way, you can immediately enter into an alliance with Xuzhou and join forces with Tao Ying to destroy Cao, and you can also show that your father is broad-minded and far better than Tao Ying.
Bargain bit by bit, and be chewy inch."
Mr. Yuan Shang, Ju Su and others continued to be stunned. The third master of Yuan Yuan looked at his eldest son as if he didn't know him. He was stunned for a long time before saying, "But that are five thousand war horses, and most of the land and city in Qingzhou, all
I gave it to Tao Ying, don’t you feel sorry for me?”
"Why don't I feel sorry for me? I feel so sad that I almost cried!"
The poor Mr. Yuan Tan wailed in his heart, but there was no way. Mr. Yuan Tan, who had suffered setbacks, was already inferior to Mr. Yuan Shang in terms of strength. If he lost Guo Tu, the arm that could only speak in front of the Grand Master Yuan San, Yuan
Mr. Tan really wanted to turn defeat into victory and there was no chance, so Mr. Yuan Tan had to bite the bullet and follow Guo Tu's letter and said: "My father was wrong. Five thousand war horses and Qingzhou land were not for Tao Ying, but for the time being.
It is said that after the destruction of Cao, my father can still take it back, and he will take it back with the capital and profit."
"After destruction of Cao, I will take back the principal and interests?" Grand Duke Yuan three blinked his eyes and finally began to be moved.
"Lord, the eldest son's words are right to join the military." Another former deputy director Tao's mortal enemy, Xin Ping, also stood up and bowed and said, "In the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Xian of Jin wanted to destroy Guo, so he sent Xun Xi to carry him with him.
Jewelry Mingma bribed Yu Gong to send troops through the road. After destroying Guo, Jin Xian Gong returned to the army and passed through the State of Yu. He destroyed Yu in one fell swoop. Jewelry Mingma returned to Xian Gong's hands intact."
"Although our army is strong now, it is difficult to fight against Tao Cao. If we join forces with Tao and destroy Cao first, it will be easy to defeat Cao. After defeating Cao, it will be easy to destroy Tao. The lord now temporarily borrows the land of war horses and Tao Ying in order to jointly destroy Cao.
, just like Duke Xian of Jin lent his famous jewel horse to Duke Yu. Since the lent war horses and land will be returned to the lord sooner or later, why should the lord be stingy to borrow Tao Ying temporarily?"
From the heart, the truth mentioned by Xin Ping is by no means a fallacy, but the truth that each defeats. However, the more reasonable it is, the easier it is to impress others. Therefore, it is not only the great Yuan Sangong who was very moved, but also took over the Guandu.
Cui Yan, a famous Jizhou scholar who was missing in the war, who served as a counselor of Yuan's army, also stood up and bowed and said, "Lord, what Mr. Xin Ping said is very true, which is in line with the principle of distant friendship and near attack and defeating military strategists. I hope the lord will accept it first.
After defeating Cao, Tao was destroyed. Now, no matter how much land and city is lent to Tao Ying, the original number will be recovered in the future."
Grand Duke Yuan San sat down again, crossed his legs and thought for a while, Grand Duke Yuan San hesitated and said, "Although it makes sense, how can I ced the land and city and spread it out, my face..."
"Father, it's okay." Mr. Yuan Tan rushed to say: "Father might as well report to Xuzhou General Zang Ba as the governor of Qingzhou and order Zang Ba to guard the east of Jishui River, so that he would not have to bear the shame of cede land. He would order Tao Ying to his father again.
If you give a tribute to a batch of jewelry, gold and silver, and reward Tao Ying with 5,000 horses, you can give an explanation to the people of the world."
Although Mr. Yuan Tan’s suggestion is a typical self-deception, it is just in line with the appetite of the Grand Prince Yuan Sangong who likes to be proud of his face but not the inner world. In addition, no one finally came forward to oppose Mr. Yuan Tan’s proposal, so Mr. Yuan Sangong soon
After making up his mind, he made a decision and said, "Just do it like this, reply to Guo Tu, ask him to agree to Tao Ying's conditions, act according to the plan, and re-establish the Yuan Tao alliance first."
With the words of Da Yuan Sangong, things became much easier. After the letter from Da Yuan Sangong arrived in Xuzhou, Deputy Director Tao quickly agreed to pay a tribute to his father-in-law a batch of gold, silver and jewelry to form an alliance with him.
Then the Grand Duke of Yuan San also ordered Wen Chou to retreat to the west of the Jishui River in the entire line, and then reported that Xuzhou General Zang Ba was the governor of Qingzhou and guarded the land of Qingzhou west of the Jishui River. Although there was no position as a governor in the Eastern Han Dynasty official system, it was only
After a formality, Yuan Sangong could not care about so much. At the same time, the Xuzhou army also released the captives of Qingzhou Wang Xiu and others, allowing the Donglai Prefect, who was unwilling to serve Xuzhou, to lead a team through the controlled place to return to Jizhou.
He also successfully received five thousand war horses rewarded by the Sangong of Dayuan.
By the way, after Deputy Director Tao fulfilled his promise to put Guo Tu back to Jizhou, Mr. Yuan Shang was furious and could not write a letter to Deputy Director Tao to condemn him. However, Deputy Director Tao, the good brother-in-law of the Three Kingdoms, insisted that he had not received his wife's brother-in-law.
The letter was explained as the messenger was missing halfway through the road. After hearing the embroidered pillow, Mr. Yuan Shang paused and sighed, regretting that God did not help him. Although Shen Pei, Feng Ji and others had doubts about this, they were worried that they would offend their party's strongest party.
Foreign aid did not dare to make a big deal of the matter, but just kept the matter in his heart. He did not dare to have too naive fantasies about Deputy Director Tao anymore.
…………
Good fortune is the basis of misfortune. Just when Deputy Director Tao was happy in Xuzhou City for blackmailing his father-in-law, Cao Boss was furious in Xuchang City, because the Xuzhou army and Jizhou army could not hide such a big move.
After passing through Cao's eyes, when he heard that the Grand Yuan Sangong had "rewarded" Qingzhou land west of the Jishui River to the unworthy son-in-law, Cao, who was hoping that Grand Yuan Sangong and Deputy Director Tao would completely turn against each other, was disappointed again.
He was shocked and angry and cursed, "The pottery thief who killed you is so shameless. I fought so hard in the Guandu battle. You haven't obtained any land yet. Most of Qingzhou was taken by you! The advantage has taken this point.
You are not afraid of God’s reprimand?!”
In addition to being furious, there was deep fear, because Cao knew very well that the reason why the Grand Duke of Yuan made such a big concession to his unworthy son-in-law was that his purpose must be to collude with the unworthy son-in-law and avenge the official revenge, and he immediately
We have to face the unfavorable situation of being attacked by the north and the south. So after getting angry enough, Boss Cao immediately summoned a group of his advisers to discuss countermeasures.
Like Boss Cao, when he learned that Deputy Director Tao had not done much effort to seize most of the land in Qingzhou, the strategists under Boss Cao were all furious and scolded Tao thieves for being treacherous. Who should he hide when he should do his best?
When I picked the fruit of victory, my hands were longer than anyone else. After scolding, Xun You suggested to Cao Boss: "Prime Minister, since Tao Yuan has reconciled, when Yuan Shao comes to take revenge in the future, our army will definitely be again
The north and south are hard to resist. It is better to take advantage of the opportunity that Yuan Shao's troops have not been rectified and Guandu's newly defeated army is not stable, and to defeat one road first, and then you can deal with the other road with peace of mind."
"Although Gongda's words are reasonable, how can both be messed with?" Cao Boss smiled bitterly: "When you go south to attack Tao, Yuan Shao will come to take revenge. When you go north to attack Yuan, it is not only urgent and difficult to win, but Yuan Shao will also order the Tao thieves to attack me from the north.
Tao Ying Xiao Thief is another traitor who is extremely capricious. Even if he doesn’t listen carefully to the orders, he will definitely take the opportunity to weaken me. Who is the best thing to ask me to attack?"
"Attack Tao is the best!" Someone suddenly spoke at the last seat of the strategist, and said firmly: "If the Prime Minister sends troops to attack Tao, Yuan Shao will not save him! It is easy to deal with the pottery thief seriously!"
"Who is proposing? Why is this voice so strange?" Boss Cao was a little surprised. When he looked at the person who proposed the proposal, Boss Cao was stunned. It turned out that the person who spoke was actually kidnapped from Uncle Liu and had never been there.
He has never given a plan for himself or offered a plan - Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi!
Not only was the boss Cao surprised, but the Cao army's advisers present were also very surprised. They forgot how to speak for a while. However, Xu Shu didn't think it was surprising. He just left the seat and bowed to boss Cao calmly and said: "I guess the Prime Minister must have
Ask, why did you decide that Yuan Shao would not save Tao? There are three reasons. First, Yuan Shao was defeated in Guandu, his vitality was severely damaged, and his army was not determined, which was not a good opportunity to send troops. Second, Yuan Shao had a small weapon, but no vision, but no vision, he would not be able to do so.
Assisting Tao; the third most important thing is that the pottery thieves took advantage of the situation and forced Yuan Shao to give up most of Qingzhou with despicable means. Although Yuan Shao was forced to give in, he would hate Taoist thieves deeply. Seeing our army attacking Taoist thieves, Yuan Shao would only gloat, but never
Send troops to help Tao!”
Boss Cao spent a lot of effort to react from the shock. After thinking carefully, he found that Xu Shu's analysis was indeed reasonable. With the harsh and merciful personality of Da Yuan Sangong, it is indeed very likely to be aware of Tao at this time.
The deputy director refused to help him when he was dead, so Boss Cao quickly began to think, "Is it a chance to attack the pottery thief at this time?"
"Although Mr. Yuanzhi's analysis makes sense, the Taoist thief has been in Xuzhou for two generations and has won the hearts of the people. Is it difficult to get out of Xuzhou?" Cheng Yu asked worriedly, "Besides, the lord's prime minister is still in the Taoist thief.
In his hand, the battle to destroy Tao is launched at this time... I am afraid..."
After a glance at the accomplice who killed his mother, Xu Shu said calmly: "Mr. Zhongde misunderstood. Shu did not propose to destroy Tao, but proposed to severely damage the pottery thieves so that they could not invade our southern line. The eldest son of the prime minister is
In the hands of the Tao thief, the brother of the Tao thief was also in the hands of the prime minister. Until the last moment, the Tao thief would never dare to attack the prince casually. In front of the two armies, the prime minister could also exchange the Tao thief with the Tao thief back to the hostages."
"Prime Minister, Xu Yuanzhi's argument is reasonable." Xun Yu also stood up and bowed and said, "With Yuan Shao's character, he would not be able to rescue his army when he attacked Tao Ding, but would only sit down and watch our army and the pottery thieves consume each other. The pottery thieves are cunning,
The trepidation is far above Liu Bei and Lu Bu. If it is not eliminated early, when our army starts war with Yuan Shao again, the pottery thieves will definitely come to the troubled waters to catch up. Instead of repeatedly tolerating the thief, it is better to take this opportunity to send troops to severely damage the pottery thieves.
It is powerless to threaten our army's southern line."
"Prime Minister, it's time to welcome the eldest son back to Xuchang." More than one person hated Deputy Director Tao, Xun You also stood up and said, "When the lord advances, he asks the Tao thieves to exchange hostages in front of the two armies. If the Tao thieves agree, if the Tao thieves agree
Then the young master returned and if the Taoist thief refused, Yuan Shao would definitely understand that the Taoist thief still wanted to take advantage of the situation, and he would definitely send troops to attack him and seize the land of Qingzhou!"
"Prime Minister, now it is indeed a good opportunity to send troops to Xuzhou." Guo Jia also coughed and said, "The Tao bandits went north to Qingzhou. Qingzhou was settled, but the people were not attached. There was also Yuan Shao's team watching the tiger, and it was difficult to withdraw for a while.
Xuzhou, our army suddenly sent troops to Xuzhou, which was just enough to defeat the pottery thieves."
There were some strategists who came forward to express their opinions, but they were stopped by Boss Cao. Then Boss Cao said decisively: "What the Lords said is so much. It's time to teach a lesson to the Tao Ying traitor who can only hide behind and take advantage of the troubled waters. Our army
After resting for more than three months, my vitality has recovered. I will lead 50,000 troops to Changyi to meet Xiahou Yuan, Cao Chun and Liu Daishanyang's army, gather 80,000 troops to defeat the pottery thieves!"
After the counselors sang their promises, Xu Shu bowed and said, "Shu, please follow the army, give advice for the Prime Minister, help the Prime Minister to break through Xuzhou, and capture the pottery thieves alive!"
Mr. Cao laughed and nodded immediately and said, "With Mr. Yuanzhi's help, Tao thief will be defeated!"
………………………………………
As the saying goes, evil will be punished. Deputy Director Tao steals chickens and dogs everywhere and takes advantage of it. Finally, he is completely guilty and can't bear it anymore and doesn't need to endure it anymore. He also completely brought himself to the point of being alone, so he was the boss Cao personally.
To be continued...
