Pan Feng's merciless words made Liu Yu realize the reality.

In fact, the reason why he was angry just now was because Pan Feng’s actions were so different from what he expected.

When Liu Yu saw that Pan Feng, who should have been living to death with Gongsun Zan in his subconscious, actually stood with Gongsun Zan with laughter, and even the two of them didn't even have any smell of gunpowder, he instinctively inserted Pan Feng and Gongsun Zan together, so that when he spoke, he completely followed his inner anger.

Liu Yu himself was not so irritable, and he was even tolerant when dealing with Gongsun Zan. Otherwise, he would not have been able to write a letter to Han Fu to allow Gongsun Zan to return to Youzhou safely after his relationship with Gongsun Zan deteriorated.

Even when it was time to really send troops, he emphasized that he only killed Gongsun Zan and did not mention the small matter of slaughtering the family. Obviously, even when it was time to fight with Gongsun Zan, he still did not want to do the best.

However, even the most kind person is confused by the hands of anger and gap.

Fortunately, Pan Feng's words made Liu Yu wake up.

Yes, wasn’t Youzhou’s such a disaster in just one month caused by his decision? Even Pan Feng was able to come to support him as an external reinforcement, and it was obvious that he was not very accustomed to fight to the death with Gongsun Zan.

Thinking of this, the anger in Liu Yu's heart faded away like a tide, and then he fell down as if he had lost all his strength.

The eunuch following the side was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and supported Liu Yu.

"Master! What's wrong with you, lord!"

The eunuch's voice made Pan Feng frown, and he immediately ordered someone to send Liu Yu back to the city and let the doctors in the city take good care of him. He didn't want Liu Yu to have an accident in his hands.

Soon, the deal between Pan Feng and Gongsun Zan came to an end in a hurry. Gongsun Zan also kept his word and took his family to the camp. He immediately led his army to retreat for thirty miles and gave up the important roads to Jizhou.

......

In a mansion in Beijing, Liu Yu was lying on the bed without expression. His whole mental state seemed to return to his previous appearance, which made the eunuch beside him anxious and sad.

The doctor had already checked before and said that Liu Yu was too volatile due to his emotional fluctuations and his physical weakness, which led to unstable blood and energy. If this situation is temporary, it is nothing. If this continues to happen, it may endanger life.

Now, the eunuchs can say all the words of encouragement and persuasion, but Liu Yu seems to have really reached the most desperate moment, and a deep dusk aura is revealed everywhere.

Just when the eunuch was at a loss, a servant came to report that Pan Feng had come.

How dare you be neglected about Pan Feng, the eunuch who rescued them from the water and fire? Soon someone invited Pan Feng in.

Liu Yu, who was lying on the bed, heard Pan Feng coming, and his eyes were filled with a little more spirit.

On the other hand, Pan Feng arranged the retreat and planned to take a look at Liu Yu. Liu Yu's appearance just now made people feel that it wouldn't last long. Coupled with the news reported by the doctor, Pan Feng still thought it might be better to come and take a look.

When he entered Liu Yu's room under the guidance of his servant, he saw Liu Yu barely sitting on the bed at a glance.

"Mr. Liu!" Pan Feng bowed.

Liu Yu sat down on the edge of the bed with the help of the eunuch: "General Pan, I was impulsive before, I'm here to apologize to you."

"How dare I let Mr. Liu do this? It's just that Gongsun Zan is now strong and his army is at a disadvantage, so I can't act rashly. I hope Mr. Liu will understand it." Pan Feng replied.

Although Pan Feng was not afraid of Gongsun Zan's troops, like Gongsun Zan, he was not sure that he could win the more with less in this state, so the wisest choice between the two sides and compromised each other was the wisest choice at present. Liu Yu obviously could not see this.

Liu Yu, Pan Feng, also gained a further understanding of him during his time in Youzhou.

When it comes to being an official, Liu Yu was honest and simple, and loved the people as his sons, which most officials could not do, especially those at the level of a rank of a chief official. It is basically unlikely that Liu Yu would do this.

From this point of view, Liu Yu is undoubtedly a good governor. If Pan Feng commented, it would be no exaggeration to say that he is a capable minister in governing the world.

But unlike Cao Cao, Liu Yu's personality has already determined that no matter how hard he tries, he cannot be a hero in troubled times. Even because of his personality problems, his blind benevolent politics can only be regarded by others as a manifestation of cowardice and incompetence.

If the Youzhou Mu changed his person, such as Cao Cao, would he see if Gongsun Zan dared to commit such a crime?

Even if you really get the blame, can you beat Cao Cao like you did?

Obviously, if the Youzhou Governor was replaced by Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan would be more cautious no matter what he did, and even the civil turmoil in Youzhou would not happen in the end!

However, there is no if in this world. Liu Yu's ending once again took the trajectory of history, but this time Pan Feng took advantage of him, giving him the last chance to turn around.

Of course, it was just a chance. Whether Liu Yu could retake Youzhou or even kill Gongsun Zan in the end was not something Pan Feng had to worry about.

However, in order to prevent Han Fu from becoming that good-looking man, Pan Feng felt it was necessary to do Han Fu's ideological work after he went back.

Liu Yu didn't know about Pan Feng's thoughts. At this moment, he had already gained some energy after seeing Pan Feng. At least Pan Feng did not throw him in a cage like Gongsun Zan.

"General Pan is right. I really need to make a long-term plan to deal with Gongsun Zan. I ended up like this because I was not cautious enough." As he said that, Liu Yu sighed, "I wonder what the general is going to do next? Should I continue to confront Gongsun Zan here? Or should I send someone to Jizhou to request reinforcements?"

Liu Yu obviously had the heart to defeat Gongsun Zan.

Pan Feng shook his head: "Gongsun Zan has already given up the road to Jizhou for our army, and I have ordered my subordinates to pack up. This time, I will inform Mr. Liu that the day after tomorrow, our army will go south to Jizhou. Then Mr. Liu may go with us. When he arrives in Jizhou, Mr. Liu wants to make some preparations safely in Youzhou."

Pan Feng's words made Liu Yu stunned.

Why did he suddenly go back to Jizhou? In this way, isn’t he just in exile?

How can this be done?

"General Pan...you...how could you go back to Jizhou so easily? Gongsun Zan...gongsun Zan..." Liu Yu said, not knowing how to speak.

As I thought before, Pan Feng was able to rescue him was already full of righteousness. He wanted him to stay in Youzhou and fight with Gongsun Zan for his life, but he could not find any legitimate reason.

Liu Yu hesitated for a long time and finally turned into a deep sigh.

"General Pan, go back to Jizhou. As for me, I won't go. Just send some people to take me back to Jixian."

Pan Feng was stunned. Liu Yu actually wanted to go back to Ji County?

Why are you going back to Ji County at this time? The total number of troops in Ji County will not exceed one hundred. Wouldn’t you die when you go back?

"Liu Gong, Ji County is different now. If you return to Ji County, Gongsun Zan's army will definitely be at the city within five days. At that time..." Pan Feng did not say anything, but Liu Yu and the eunuch knew the subsequent results.

Once Gongsun Zan surrounded Jixian, would Liu Yu live or die or what Gongsun Zan said?

Of course, Pan Feng was not worried about this. What he was worried about was that Liu Yu would not come to Jizhou with him. If he was harmed by Gongsun Zan in the future, would Han Fu or others blame Liu Yu's death on him?

This is very fatal!

He didn't want to ruin his lifetime of reputation because of this incident.

"Liu Gong, as long as Gongsun Zan is in Youzhou for one day, even if you return to Jixian, you will not change anything. On the contrary, if you can follow me back to Jizhou, you can use the power of others to help you quell the Youzhou Rebellion." Pan Feng said.

Liu Yu smiled bitterly: "Who else can help me quell the Youzhou Rebellion? Is it up to the Korean Festival?"

Han Fu may have some friendship with him, but pacifying Youzhou is not a matter of one or two words. It is almost an extremely protracted battle. After all, once Pan Feng retreats, Gongsun Zan will definitely recruit soldiers to conquer the city. It will not be a matter of one day or one night if he wants to regain the city from Gongsun Zan!

Although Jizhou is rich, it is not as rich as a vain to help others fight for a year or two or even three or four years!

More importantly, even if Liu Yu wants to repay Han Fu's favor and material loss afterwards, it is estimated that it may not be clear until Han Fu dies. Liu Yu cannot bear to owe others favors, especially this kind of love that he will never be able to pay off in his entire life.

In fact, Liu Yu wanted to return to Ji County rather than to fight against Gongsun Zan, he wanted to induce Gongsun Zan to Ji County.

Ji County is the capital of Youzhou. Once Gongsun Zan dares to send troops to surround Ji County, Liu Yu will decide without hesitation in front of Gongsun Zan's formation. At that time, news that Gongsun Zan surrounded Ji County and forced Liu Yu to death would be circulated in the world.

This news will definitely hit Gongsun Zan's reputation and career hard.

No one would think that Gongsun Zan, who was following the crime, would be a good person, especially those in power.

The formulation of rules itself is used to serve those in power. If someone is in power and can be recognized by others, the status of those in power will be seriously threatened.

Therefore, as long as Gongsun Zan forces Liu Yu to death, no matter what Gongsun Zan develops now, he will only go downhill in the future, and will never have another peak again, and may not even have any allies!

Liu Yu was not afraid of death, especially if he could lead Gongsun Zan to death.

The reason why he did not die in Gongsun Zan's camp was because of the glimmer of hope. But now all the hopes that Liu Yu could think of were shattered, and he had no reason to survive. Only death can make Liu Yu feel better.

......

Seeing Liu Yu's appearance, Pan Feng felt that he might have depression.

Thinking about it, from a high-ranking state governor to an ordinary prisoner, it took only a month, and it was a prisoner who could hardly see hope of turning over. It was commendable that Liu Yu could maintain his kind nature and not force Pan Feng to go to war with Gongsun Zan.

However, did Liu Yu really have no foreign aid?

In fact, it is not the case. Not to mention the distance, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou bordering Jizhou, and Liu Yu, are of the same clan. Even if the relationship between the two is similar to that of strangers on weekdays, the territory of the royal family has been stolen by outsiders. Even if Liu Dai has a good relationship with Gongsun Zan, he will feel somewhat disgusted.

If Liu Yu is smarter and willing to use the land of Youzhou as a bargaining chip, then Pan Feng is almost certain that Liu Dai will definitely send troops to Youzhou and Gongsun Zan to the death!

Of course, in addition to Liu Dai, in Pan Feng's view, Liu Yu could even take the initiative to ask for help from the court where Lu Bu was located.

Today, Lu Bu has occupied the Xiliang area around Long County. If it weren't for the critical moment, Han Sui and Ma Teng transferred Pang De and others stationed in Wuwei to the vicinity of Hanyang, it would have been estimated that the Beidi County, Anding County, Hanyang County and Wudu County in the east of Liangzhou would have fallen.

But even if Pang De brought all the remaining troops in Wuwei to the top, he only lost less Hanyang County and half of Anding County. The other Beidi County and Wudu County could not defend anymore.

It can be said that Ma Tenghan, the Western Liang Dynasty, had little power to fight back under Lu Bu's attack, but the battle situation has developed to the present time, and it is not so easy for Lu Bu to continue to move forward.

If Liu Yu initiated a request for help from Lu Bu's court at this time, he would undoubtedly recognize the orthodox nature of Lu Bu's court in terms of status. Pan Feng alone could conclude that even if Li Ru was spitting out all the land occupied by Xiliang, he would have Lu Bu sent troops from Bingzhou to help Liu Yu attack Gongsun Zan.

After the war, he would even return Youzhou to Liu Yu intact!

This is much safer than inviting Liu Dai to advance with land at the cost of inviting him to advance. Of course, the consequence of this is that Liu Yu will become a sinner of the entire royal family and even the entire Han Dynasty.

Pan Feng estimated that Liu Yu would not do this even if he died, so it is more reliable to target Liu Dai.

"Mr. Liu, you are not at the end of the journey. In my opinion, you have at least two choices to help you defeat Gongsun Zan and take back Youzhou!" Pan Feng said.

When Liu Yu heard this, he was excited.

"General Pan is serious about this? Where can I have any troops?" Liu Yu was like a drowning person catching a life-saving straw.

Pan Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Liu, although I am in Jizhou, I have also heard that Liu Gong has given benevolent governments in Youzhou to resume production. This move is undoubtedly a great kindness to the people of Youzhou, and it is also a kindness to the foreign races such as Wuhuan and Xianbei. During these days in Youzhou, I have heard their praise for you from the foreign races more than once."

"If you are not wrong, many of your previous 100,000 troops are all foreign-race young and strong, right?"

Seeing Liu Yu nodding, Pan Feng continued: "The young and strong aliens are willing to join the army on a large scale, which shows that they have respect for you in their hearts, and I believe you know this."

Liu Yu nodded again: "Although I am a shallow man, I have always treated him equally in government affairs. As long as those foreign races did not violate the laws of the Han Dynasty, they would enjoy almost the same treatment as those of the Han people."
