Lu Dynasty

Chapter 379 Yuan Cao Alliance
Yuan Shao took a closer look and found that it was Xu You who came in.Yuan Shao said with a smile: "Ziyuan is also a friend who grew up with us, so feel free to speak up if you have anything to say!"

After Xu You bowed to Man Chong, he said to Yuan Shao: "Master, Meng De has always been cunning. I think he had a close relationship with Lu Feng when he was in Luoyang. Can you guarantee that he did not join forces with Lu Feng and wanted to Do you want to earn a place in Jizhou? My lord, do you still remember how you planned Jizhou?" When Xu You said this, Yuan Shao immediately remembered that he had lied to Gongsun Zan and wanted to use Gongsun Zan to force Han Fu to give up Jizhou.If Cao wants to do the same, then he will be in great trouble!Yuan Shao began to struggle in his heart, and he suddenly lost his mind.

Man Chong also started to have a headache. Seeing that Yuan Shao already wanted to agree to the alliance, who would have thought that such an unexpected guest as Xu You would be killed again.Man Chong said in his heart: It seems that Yuan Shao won't agree to the alliance without spending a lot of money.Man Chong said: "General Yuan, my lord also knows the general's concerns. In order to show sincerity, my lord decided to divide Qingzhou equally with the general!" Most of Qingzhou is next to Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and only a small part is close to Jizhou. Cao agreed to divide Qingzhou equally. But it is very sincere.

Hearing what Man Chong said, Yuan Shao knew that Cao was really sincere this time.As a man like Cao, he will never do anything that is not beneficial.If Manchong came to join him, it was Cao's plan, and Cao would never promise to share Qingzhou with Yuan Shao.In Yuan Shao's heart, Cao has always taken advantage of it!Yuan Shao smiled and said, "Bo Ning, it's not that I don't trust Meng De. As a person, if he doesn't give me some benefits, I really dare not agree to his request."

Man Chong was about to faint, and now the discussion was about life and death, Yuan Shao actually wanted to ask Cao for benefits, Man Chong said helplessly: "General, now is the time of life and death for you and me, how can my lord still think about plotting against you? If we join forces with Lu Feng, what's the difference between seeking skin from a tiger!"

"Mr. Man, don't be alarmist!" Xu You said: "Even if it is life and death, it will be Cao who will be in trouble before us. Who told him to welcome the emperor! This should be what my General Yuan should do!"

Man Chong was really speechless to those short-sighted counselors under Yuan Shao's command. He said weakly: "Now is not the time to discuss who will die first, but we have to deal with Lu Feng first. When Lu Feng is finished, our two families will meet again." Let’s compete! If the two of us fight now, we will only be able to take advantage of Lu Feng in the end!”

Yuan Shao looked at Man Chong and then at the advisers under his command. He smiled and said, "Let's do this! Mr. Man go to the post house to rest first. I will discuss it with Ziyuan and the others, and then invite Mr. Man to come!" Yuan Shao said. Ask someone to take Man Chong to the post house, and Man Chong also knows that Yuan Shao is definitely unable to make a decision now, so he has no choice but to go to the post house to rest!

After Man Chong left, Yuan Shao looked at several advisers under his command and asked: "Cao joined us to resist Lu Feng, and he also said that we would divide Qingzhou together. Can you agree to Cao on this matter!"

The examiner sighed and said: "Master, if you don't agree, you have to agree! Lu Feng's strength is there. If we are alone, we must not be his opponent! Since the last time he defeated me with only 40 cavalry. With an army of 50, it can be seen that if we give Lu Feng [-] troops, we will have to use at least five times more troops to beat him! Recently I heard that Gao Shun, under Lu Feng's command, is cleaning up the youths among the refugees. Strong, expand the trapped camp!"

Yuan Shao asked: "Are you talking about the elite infantry trained by Lu Feng's general Gao Shun? Back then, Lu Feng relied on Gao Shun's 10 soldiers to block Li Jue and Guo Si's [-] elite cavalry! Yes Now, Lu Feng has Gao Shun, and I have Qu Yi! When we were fighting Gongsun Zan, Qu Yi also boarded the camp with only [-] first, and blocked Gongsun Zan's [-] white horse followers! Send me an order, Qu Yi, let him Let me expand the Xiandeng camp to [-] people! Qu Yi’s [-] Xiandeng should be able to block Lu Feng’s [-] cavalry! Compared with the infantry, we in Jizhou have more people, and one person can kill Lu Feng’s army with a spit. Drown!"

Seeing Yuan Shao began to daydream, Feng Ji couldn't bear it any longer, he stood up and said, "My lord, even if Qu Yi can stop Lu Feng's [-] cavalry, there are still under Lu Feng's command no less than those who entered the camp first." Trapped camp! And now Gao Shun is expanding the trapped camp, if Lu Feng lets Gao Shun train all the infantry under his command, what should we do?"

"How is that possible!" Guo Tu laughed and said, "Yuan Tu is a bit unfounded! If Lu Feng handed over all the infantry under his command to Gao Shun, he wouldn't be afraid of Gao Shun rebelling against him? Don't say that Gao Shun is just Lu Feng's concubine Even if it is Lu Feng's real brother, Lu Feng would not dare to hand over such great power to him!" Yuan Shao felt very reasonable after hearing Guo Tu's words.In Yuan Shao's view, even father and son have to guard against each other!In the power struggle, Yuan Shao has seen too much about father and son and brother killing each other!

"Since this is the case, we don't need to unite with Cao!" Yuan Shao asked: "With our strength, as long as we don't fight with Lu Feng, then we don't have to worry about it!"

"No!" Guo Tu said, "My lord, we still have to unite with Cao! First, if we unite with Cao, we can gain half of Qingzhou for nothing; United with Cao, if we let Cao attack Hulao Pass when our army is at a disadvantage, wouldn't our army be safer? In the end, Cao is also a hero. If we don't agree to his alliance, when Lu Feng attacks us, he will also If we make small moves behind us, wouldn't we be under the enemy's back? The benefits of agreeing to the alliance are more than those of not agreeing to the alliance! What does the lord think?"

After listening to Guo Tu's words, Yuan Shao, Shen Pei, and Xu You nodded their heads, and even Feng Ji agreed with him.Yuan Shao saw that his advisers had rarely reached a consensus, so he stood up and slapped the table and said, "Okay! I would like to invite Mr. Man Chong to discuss the peaceful division of Qingzhou by the alliance!"

Man Chong reluctantly walked from Yuan Shao's conference hall to the post house, just returned to the post house, before the person Yuan Shao sent to invite him arrived.When Man Chong learned that Yuan Shao had decided to form an alliance with Cao, he hurried to the meeting hall.Although Man Chong is very speechless to Yuan Shao, but if he can achieve the purpose of this trip, be depressed if you are depressed!Seeing Man Chong arrived, Yuan Shao smiled and said to him: "There is Lao Boning, and I have decided to defend Lu Feng with the Mengde Alliance. If Meng De has any regulations, please tell him bluntly!" Man Chong understood that Yuan Shao wanted to know what to do. Dividing Qingzhou equally, and how to cooperate with each other, he took out the plan that Cao had discussed a long time ago and told Yuan Shao!
