Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 100 Failed Ripoff (Subscribe)

The sky was getting dark, and several Xianbei soldiers were taking a nap.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, the footsteps came from far to near, and came straight to them.

A few people were taken aback, and suddenly woke up.They pulled out their scimitars and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

The visitor smiled slightly, and said calmly: "I'm Xia Guo Jia, under the order of Prime Minister Cao, I'm here to see your king."

The soldiers looked at each other, their expressions relaxed a lot.One of them put away the scimitar and said roughly: "Wait a moment, wait for me to report."

Guo Jia smiled unabated, bowed and said, "Thank you, brother."

After a while, the man came back.He raised his right hand, made a gesture of invitation, and said bluntly, "Your Majesty let you in!"

Guo Jia didn't take it seriously, followed behind the other party, and went straight to the Xianbei camp.

Shanggu County is located in a remote location and has poor economic conditions, but it is the place where Xianbei people gather.

The Xianbei people have a very large population, and the entire ethnic group is divided into three tribes.

Among these three tribes, Lisu on the west side is the most cunning, Budugen on the center is the most warlike, and Ke Bineng on the east side is the most powerful.

And the person Guo Jia wants to woo is Ke Bineng, who is known as the "barbarian king".

Ke Bi Neng is tall and big, with a fierce appearance, extremely frightening.Seeing Guo Jia coming in, he immediately asked, "Are you from Cao Cao?"

Guo Jia nodded, and said respectfully: "The villain is ordered by Prime Minister Cao to form an alliance with the king forever."

Ke Bi Neng frowned, and asked in a low voice, "Cao Cao wants to form an alliance with me?"

"That's right," Guo Jiagong said, "After forming an alliance, we can help the king to defeat Lisu and Budugen."

Ke Bi Neng raised the corner of his mouth and asked coldly: "What does Cao Cao want me to do?"

"It's very simple, we want to invite the king to attack Youzhou."

"Youzhou? If I remember correctly, it is Yuan Shao's territory."

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Yes, Yuan Shao's wolf ambition has long coveted the cattle, sheep and horses of the Xianbei tribe. If he doesn't get rid of them early, there will be troubles later!"

"Nonsense!" Ke Bi Neng stood up suddenly and said angrily, "Although I live here, I know that Yuan Shao is attacking Cao Cao. They are deadly enemies and have nothing to do with me. Why should I provoke Yuan Shao?"

Guo Jia sighed, and said calmly, "Your Majesty's words are extremely wrong!"

With a murderous look on his face, Ke Bi Neng said coldly: "Tell me, where I am wrong. If what I say is reasonable, I will spare your life. If you dare to mess around, I will give Yuan Shao your head!"

"From my point of view," Guo Jia stared at Ke Bineng, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty's situation is already more dangerous than Prime Minister Cao."

"how you said that?"

"Your Majesty should know that when our army attacked Guandu, Li Su and Bu Dugen successively led the army to attack Guannei and other places, which caused Prime Minister Cao a great headache."

Ke Bineng was stunned and said casually: "This is a matter between Li Su and Bu Dugen. What does it have to do with me?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Think about it, Your Majesty, Prime Minister Cao has no enmity with the two of them, why did they fall to Yuan Shao?"

"You mean..."

Having said that, Ke Bi Neng paused his voice, remained silent for a moment, and then asked: "Are they colluding with Yuan Shao and want to annex Cao Cao's territory?"

"That's true," Guo Jia restrained his smile and said seriously, "Otherwise, with their strength, how dare they provoke Prime Minister Cao? What's more, the king has a strong army and is good at seizing opportunities. If they take advantage of the situation and send troops, how can they resist?"

Hearing this, Ke Bineng's expression changed suddenly.

He sat down slowly, pondered for a long time, and never said a word.

It doesn't matter whether Cao Cao is dead or alive, the key is the reason for Lisu and Budugen to send troops.If the two really sent troops for Yuan Shao, then their situation is indeed very dangerous.

Thinking of this, Ke Bi Neng raised his head, stared at Guo Jia and said, "If I raise troops to attack Youzhou, what good will it do me?"

Guo Jia was secretly happy, and said calmly: "If the king is willing to send troops, Prime Minister Cao will definitely thank you."

"I'm not a three-year-old kid, you'd better be more specific."

"Five thousand war horses, 30 shi of grain and grass, plus eight hundred silks and satins."

Ke Bi Neng shook his head and said, "Cao Cao gave too little, I can't accept it at all."

Guo Jia guessed the intention of the other party, and said with a smile: "Then ask the king to make a price."

"This is..."

Ke Bi Neng thought for a while, and then said: "I want 100 war horses, [-] million stones, grain and grass, and [-] pieces of silk and satin. In addition, Cao Cao will send troops to help me destroy Lisu and Budugen."

He thought the other party would think about it for a while, but Guo Jia said without hesitation, "It's a deal!"

Seeing how happy Guo Jia was, Ke Bi Neng regretted it very much, but it was difficult to take back the words that had been spoken.

In desperation, he had no choice but to say: "It's a deal!"

Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "I wonder when the king is going to send troops?"

Ke Bi Neng pondered for a moment, and then said: "Go back and tell Cao Cao that within three days, I will lead an army to attack Youzhou."

Guo Jia raised the corner of his mouth, nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"You're welcome, tell Cao Cao to send the horses, food, and silk here as soon as possible, otherwise, I will attack his Xuchang City together with Yuan Shao."

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Prime Minister Cao will never break his promise."

After the two discussed and agreed, Guo Jia said goodbye to Ke Bineng, returned to Xuchang City alone, and informed Cao Cao of the negotiation process.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, grabbed Guo Jia's hand, and said excitedly, "Feng Xiao's talent is comparable to Zi Ya Zhang Liang, and he is really unpredictable."

"The prime minister praised me so much, I am so ashamed," Guo Jia bowed and said, "That Kebi has a hot temper and is good at fighting. Please also ask the prime minister to prepare horses, grain, grass, and silk as soon as possible, in case he has a different heart."

Cao Cao agreed and ordered Mao Jie to collect supplies and send them to Ke Bineng's camp.

Ke Bi Neng counted the supplies, and after confirming that they were correct, he sent Mao Jie back.Afterwards, he mobilized [-] elite soldiers and marched towards Youzhou in a mighty manner.

The general guarding Youzhou is Yuan Xi.Seeing that there were not many enemy troops, he ordered his troops and horses in the city and fought straight out of the city.

When the two battles faced each other, Yuan Xi raised his spear and called for battle at the enemy.A moment later, a Xianbei general with two swords in his hands leaped out of the battle.

Yuan Xi raised his gun and asked, "Who are you? How dare you violate our border?"

The man laughed "haha" and said arrogantly: "A certain one is Nian Mohan, who specializes in killing southern barbarians!"

Before he finished speaking, he raised his two sabers and slashed towards Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi tried to fight, but only heard a "clang", but felt his tiger's mouth go numb, his body trembled uncontrollably, and immediately lost the courage to fight again.

He gritted his teeth, parried the opponent's double knives, and returned to the front line.

Seeing this, Ke Bi Neng held up the mace and shouted: "Brothers, follow me!"
