Three Kingdoms: Summon the Heroic Soul Yue Fei at the beginning

Chapter 223
Chapter 223
Gongsun Zan's face was haggard. In the past two months, the continuous fighting had made him lose a lot of weight.

"Yuan Shao won't attack now, my lord should take a rest and recharge his batteries for future troubles."

Tian Yu Gongsun Zan's counselor, who used to be quite good-natured, became bloodthirsty after two months of bloodbath. Looking at Gongsun Zan, he restrained himself a little, and persuaded him with a respectful face.

"The military division is here."

Gongsun Zan turned his head slightly and saw that it was Tian Yu who came, with a forced smile on his lips.

Then he turned his head and looked out of the city, lost in thought. When Tian Yu saw it, he also looked out of the city.

"How long can the food in the city last?"

Gongsun Zan's voice seemed a little ethereal as it floated into Tian Yu's ears.

"Only enough for two days."

Speaking of this, Tian Yu was also worried. Yuan Shao's army outside the city was nearly 20.

Surrounded by Youzhou, there is no water leakage, even if they can ask other princes to borrow food, it doesn't make sense if they can't transport it into the city.

Besides, Youzhou was originally barren, not as rich as Jizhou, so it was a big surprise to be able to fight Yuan Shao and still not lose the wind.

Both of them sighed, and calm was restored on the top of the city.

It's just that the sadness in the air is getting stronger.

In July, Ye Xiao and his party rushed to Dongping Kingdom in a hurry without stopping. Ye Xiao was already exhausted. After entering Dongping Kingdom, Ye Xiao was not polite to everyone, waved everyone to disperse, and went straight to the mansion. .

The next day, after returning from rest.

Ye Xiao then called several counselors around him.

After exchanging pleasantries, he brought up the matter of holding Yuan Shao that was raised earlier.

After some discussions, Ye Xiao decided to send Chen Gong to Yangping, and there were [-] troops going with Chen Gong.

As for the other troops, they waited quietly for news.

A few days later, in Yangping County, Yuan Shao's favorite youngest son, Yuan Shang, knew of Chen Gong's arrival, so he personally went out to welcome Chen Gong to the mansion. After the meeting, Chen Gong informed Yuan Shang of his intention.

At this time Yuan Shang heard the words and fell into deep thought, and began to think about the gains and losses of this matter in his mind.

"Mr. Gongtai, how do you plan to divide the territory of Yanzhou after the war?"

A scribe in a long gown stood up and asked Yuan Shang.

Chen Gong didn't answer immediately, but turned to look at Yuan Shang, with a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, waiting for Yuan Shang to introduce the situation.

"This is my military advisor, Guo Tu, what military advisor means is what I mean."

Yuan Shang's attitude is humble, which is completely different from the aloof and powerful Yuan Shang in intelligence.

This made Chen Gong a little puzzled, although he had doubts in his heart, Chen Gong didn't say a word.

He just nodded slightly towards Yuan Shang, and then looked at Guo Tu and replied.

"My lord in the land of Yanzhou is willing to give you Dongjun."

Hearing these words, Yuan Shang's heart was moved immediately, his face changed, and he turned to look at Guo Tu for a long time, waiting for his opinion.

"What's the price? Ye Xiao can't just give it to me for nothing, right?"

Guo Tu naturally knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and he has to pay the same or higher price for what he gets.

"As long as the general does not send troops to support Cao Cao, we have no other requirements."

Hearing these words, Guo Tu lowered his head and pondered for a long time. Chen Gong didn't urge him, but just stared at the wine glass on the table in front of him.

After a long time, Guo Tu raised his head, glanced at Chen Gong, then turned to Yuan Shang and shook his head, expressing that this is impossible.

All this was seen by Chen Gong who had been following the two of them.

"Mr. Gongtai, you have entered Yanzhou not long ago. Except for Chen Liu, you have managed the land of Yanzhou, and you have not managed any other places."

"Besides, this time I paid [-] yuan to support Cao Cao, but you guys want to send me away with one Shangjun?"

"Yanzhou has a total of six counties, and my Yuan family wants four counties, otherwise there will be no discussion."

At this time, Yuan Shang still remembered that when he left, Yuan Shao told him that if Cao Cao could not be saved, it would be best to grab a few yuan in Yanzhou, and there would be a base for attacking Ye Xiao in the future.

"Is the general a little too greedy? You must know that the land of Yanzhou was bought by the soldiers of Yuzhou in exchange for blood. Now the general wants the land of the four counties?"

"Haha! This is my attitude. If you don't want me to support Cao Cao, then take out the four counties of Yanzhou, otherwise nothing will be discussed!"

"Hmph, since that's the case, we have nothing to talk about, so leave!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Gong was about to turn around and leave, at this moment Guo Tu stepped forward and grabbed Chen Gong's hand and said.

"Brother Gongtai, why are you in such a hurry, eat something before leaving, can you discuss this matter slowly."

When Chen Gong heard this, he understood that the two of them were trying to put pressure on Chen Gong.

"Since Brother Guo Tu invites you, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

Soon Yuan Shang prepared the banquet, entered the banquet and Yuan Shang sat in the upper seat, with Chen Gong and Guo Tu on both sides.

"I'm a little hungry, let's eat first."

Yuan Shang pointed to the food on the table and said to the two, at this time Chen Gong was also a little hungry, so he ate without hesitation.

"Brother Gongtai, is there no room for retreat? Four counties can't do it, but three counties can do it."

After eating, Guo Tu looked at Chen Gong who was sitting opposite and said.

"The land of Shangjun, if you want it, take it, if you don't want it, just pretend that Chen has never been here."

After Chen Gong finished speaking, he was about to stand up, at this moment Yuan Shang cast a glance at the guards beside him.

In an instant, countless guards rushed up and surrounded Chen Gong.

"Yuan Shang, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting, I just want Mr. Gongtai's lord to exchange the land of the three counties for you."

Yuan Shang stood up with a smile and said in front of Chen Gong.

"Hmph, my lord is right, you Yuan family is ambitious, go and see what's outside your camp now!"

"Report! A large number of enemy troops were found outside the barracks."

As soon as Chen Gong finished speaking, the scouts rushed in.

"how many people?"

"It looks like there are about a hundred thousand."

Yuan Shang immediately panicked when he heard the scout's words, and Chen Gong saw all this in his eyes.

"Hmph, if you don't want to die, you can let me go back. I'll keep you safe. If you want to die, you can kill me, and I'll wait for you at the grave."

After Chen Gong finished speaking, he closed his eyes and ignored Yuan Shang. Seeing this, Guo Tu hurriedly came to Yuan Shang and whispered.

"My lord, we haven't gained a firm foothold when we first came here, and we don't have much supplies. If there is a fight, we may not be opponents. Don't worry."

"But, don't you want the land of the four counties?"

At this time, Yuan Shang was still thinking about his four counties, and asked reluctantly.

"Solve the immediate problem first, and let the four counties go first."

Hearing what Guo Tu said, Yuan Shang weighed it up, and finally let him go.
