Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

"You useless thing, you only know how to cry when something happens, what's the point?

Can crying solve problems?
Can crying restore your Goguryeo to its original state? "

Xiao Fang shouted loudly with a look of disdain on his face.

When Gao Yanyou heard this, she stopped crying, stood aside, and secretly wiped her tears.

Xiao Fang snorted disdainfully and continued:
"I have led my army northwards, ready to kill Cao Yu, are you willing to cooperate?

If you cooperate well, you might be able to save the lives of your clan."

"How do you want me to cooperate, Prime Minister?"

Gao Yanyou was surprised and happy, as if he saw a glimmer of hope in the darkness.

Xiao Fang narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly:
"I will make you the king of Goguryeo!"

"You must call on the people of Goguryeo to rebel against Cao Yu and become our internal support!

In this way, we can work together inside and outside to easily destroy Cao Yu."

Xiao Fang put forward the conditions, with a hint of majesty and temptation in his eyes.

A hint of joy flashed across Gao Yanyou's eyes, and his heart was instantly filled with emotions.

Although he was the eldest son of Goguryeo, according to the legal system, the throne of Goguryeo should have been succeeded by his legitimate son Go Seung-mu.

However, Cao Yu's mutiny completely changed the situation in Goguryeo, and now he has the opportunity to get support from the Han Dynasty.

For him, this was undoubtedly a godsend.

For a moment, Gao Yanyou was overjoyed, as if he had already seen the day when he would ascend the throne and accept the worship of all the people.

"What are you still doing standing there like an idiot?
Could it be that you are unwilling to follow the instructions?

Could it be that you have some other plan in mind?"

Xiao Fang's expression was as cold as frost, his eyes were like deep cold pools, he asked back coldly.

Gao Yanyou finally woke up from his dream, and quickly suppressed the surging thoughts in his heart, with a face full of flattery and respect:
"Prime Minister Xiao, everything is up to you, and I will obey your orders!
I am loyal to you, the sun and the moon can testify to that!"

He spoke very sincerely, as if he was loyal to Xiao Fang, and every word he said was filled with awe and obedience to Xiao Fang.

However, deep in his heart, he had other plans.

"Humph, I ascended the throne today with the support of the Han Kingdom, and I will definitely find an opportunity to rebel someday.

How can we, the Goguryeo people, be driven around like dogs by the Han people for our entire lives..."

Gao Yanyou swore secretly in his heart.

He clenched his fists, with only one firm belief in his heart:

Goguryeo must be freed.

But how could his little thoughts escape Xiao Fang's all-seeing eyes?

Xiao Fang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile that made people shudder:

"Gao Yanyou, don't be so foolish as to dream of betrayal.

Once I completely conquer Goguryeo, you will die!

You are just a chess piece in my hand. You are overestimating your own abilities if you try to break free from my control!"

Xiao Fang thought secretly in his heart.

But on the surface, Xiao Fang pretended to be satisfied:

"Okay, I will make you the King of Goguryeo today!

I hope you will not disappoint me and serve me well. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao!
I will never forget the Prime Minister’s great kindness!

I will do my best to serve the Prime Minister and the Han Dynasty!"

Gao Yanyou hastily bowed deeply, his movements flowing like flowing water, as if he was expressing his sincere gratitude.

However, at this moment, he was secretly planning how to take advantage of this opportunity to expand his own power and wait for the right time to rebel against the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop.

At that moment, Xiao Fang acted vigorously and immediately deposed Gao Shangwu from the throne and appointed Gao Yanyou as the new King of Goguryeo. When the news came out, it instantly caused a thousand waves in Goguryeo.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Yanyou issued an edict ordering the Goguryeo people to rise up against Cao Yu's rule.

The words on the edict were like a burning flame, igniting the fire of resistance in the hearts of the Goguryeo people.

At the same time, the spies arranged by Xiao Fang also spread the news everywhere, claiming that the Han Dynasty wanted to kill Cao Yu and support the Gao family to regain the throne.

These spies were like ghosts, shuttling through the streets and alleys of Goguryeo, spreading the news widely.

This series of arrangements, like an invisible net, quietly spread to every corner of Goguryeo.

After everything was arranged, Xiao Fang led the mighty army and marched northward.

Along the way, Xiao Fang was not in a hurry to march.

Firstly, Goguryeo's terrain is mostly mountainous, and the roads are rugged and difficult to travel.

If we force the march to speed up, not only will the soldiers be exhausted, but if they encounter an ambush, the consequences will be disastrous.

In this complex mountain terrain, the best strategy is to proceed step by step.

Secondly, Xiao Fang had his own plans in mind. He wanted to allow the rebellion within Goguryeo to ferment.

He seemed like a skilled chess player, sitting quietly in front of the chessboard, watching the situation develop as he expected, and when the time was right, he would reap the benefits.

as predicted.

After Gao Yanyou succeeded to the throne, the people of Goguryeo seemed to see the dawn of hope and were all excited.

Previously, Gao Shangwu was held hostage by Cao Yu, and the Goguryeo people were like lambs that had lost their backbone, and did not dare to make any rash moves.

They live in fear and anxiety every day and are full of confusion about the future.

Now that Gao Yanyou ascended the throne, the Goguryeo people seemed to have found their support again. The fire of resistance in their hearts was instantly ignited, and rebellion soon broke out.

The anger that had been suppressed was like a volcanic eruption, unstoppable.

For a while, Goguryeo fell into chaos.

Local officials in many cities began to obey Gao Yanyou's orders and no longer obeyed Cao Yu's rule.

Some of them opened their city gates to welcome Gao Yanyou's army;
Some of them secretly accumulated strength, preparing to compete with Cao Yu's forces.

Upon seeing this, Cao Yu hurriedly sent troops to suppress these cities.

Even before Xiao Fang's troops arrived, Goguryeo was already in chaos.

Xiao Fang took advantage of the situation and continued to move north, and soon captured Yucheng.

...

In the lobby of the county government, Xiao Fang and the generals sat together to discuss the next course of action.

The lobby was brightly lit with candles, illuminating everyone's faces with exceptional clarity.

"Prime Minister Xiao's move to support Gao Yanyou is truly brilliant!"

Ma Su said with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.

"Now that Goguryeo is in turmoil, there are only a few cities left under Cao Yu's control.

If we advance now, we will be able to conquer Goguryeo in one fell swoop.

We just need to follow the trend and win easily.”

Zhang He also echoed, "Yes, Prime Minister, your foresight is brilliant, and we all admire you very much.

Now the people of Goguryeo are in a state of panic, we will definitely be able to completely eliminate Cao Yu and make Goguryeo a possession of the Han Dynasty."

After hearing this, Xiao Fang's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.

"Okay, then let's rest for two days, and once the food and supplies arrive, we'll launch the attack immediately.

During these two days, everyone should rest and be well prepared.

I want to let Cao Yu, the remnant of the pseudo-Qin, know that being an enemy of the Han Dynasty was the biggest mistake of his life." (End of this chapter)
