Since entering Anding County, the third son Yuan Shang has lived a life like a fairy. There are wine pools and meat forests, constant banquets, listening to the melody, seeing beautiful women, sitting on the golden mountains and silver seas, what a "cool" word. !

It's no wonder that Yuan Shang's life is depraved, boundless wealth, boundless enjoyment, there are a few men who can control it. In the past, in Yecheng, his father, Yuan Shao, took care of him, and he was cautious everywhere. Yuan Shang could still suppress the desire in his heart. , no longer restrained, the desire that has been accumulated for a long time burst out, and it was out of control!

Furthermore, a group of retainers under him were also considerate, knowing what the third young master likes, they offered a nanmu bed one foot five by one foot two, covered with pure white lambskin, soft and noisy, like falling into a cloud, Yuan Shang enthusiastically performed bravely on it, fighting against the beauties of various ethnic groups who came here, majestic, brave and invincible!

"Third Young Master!...Third Young Master! - Xiao Lang sent the ghost face..."

At noon, after Yuan Shang was full of wine and food, he was fighting several blond orchids from the Western Regions on his big bed. He was galloping on horses. When he was going forward, his soldiers suddenly shouted outside the door...

"Ghost Face Xiao Lang?... Plop!" Hearing these four words, Yuan Shang, who was galloping, trembled all over, his legs were limp, and after a few rolls, he fell headfirst under the bed, making a loud noise!

"Oh!...Young master is well!...Young master is safe!" Several orchids screamed in fright, and hurriedly helped Yuan Shang up and looked up and down, for fear of hurting this young master, their lives would be lost !

"Go away!... Is it Xiao Lang, the ghost face, who came here? Prepare your horse!" Pushing Hu Ji away, Yuan Shang rushed out of the door, asking about the situation, and at the same time asked someone to prepare the horse. The army is coming, let's retreat to a safe place by ourselves!

Ever since Xiao Yi went to conquer Xiliang, slaughtered the Di people, frightened the Qiang people, subdued the Ma family father and son, broke through Jincheng, shot and killed Han Sui with random arrows..., it can be said that he is famous and invincible. , Yuan Shang was terrified, and he pretended to be disdainful just out of face, but he had already developed a huge sense of fear for the word "Ghost Face Xiao Lang"!

"Third son, don't be alarmed, the ghost-faced Xiao Lang didn't kill him, he just sent an envoy, Mr. Fengji and Shenpei, please go to the lobby to meet him!" The soldiers hurriedly reported the situation, but they didn't dare to look up!

"There are no soldiers and horses, the one who came is a messenger!" After hearing the report, Yuan Shang let out a long breath, raised the heart in his throat, and slowly fell back. Then he felt cold all over his body, and the wind was blowing under his crotch. Shrunk into a ball, only to realize that he was standing outside the door naked, letting the spring breeze blow..."Damn it, come quickly, change my clothes, armor, and saber!"

.................................................................................................................................

The envoy sent by 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' must be treated with caution, at least not to weaken the face of the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family. If it can deter the other party, that would be even better!

A moment later, Yuan Shang was dressed up again, wearing a cloud brocade robe inside, a golden armor on the outside, holding a sword in his hand, and powder on Xiaobai's face, he was extraordinarily handsome, except for the slightly dark circles under his eyes, and his frivolous footsteps, which reminded people of a sentence --'Tiger skin made of sheep is nothing but appearance! '

In order to show his majesty, Yuan Shang took out a full set of ceremonial guards, banners, drums, axes... and lined up all the way to the gate of the mansion. He also arranged fifty knife and ax hands to form a shining knife array. Under the lobby, a three-legged The giant bronze cauldron was also set up, the flames were soaring into the sky, and the boiling oil was boiling. Just looking at it can make people lose their souls!

"Send the envoys from Cao Ying to the court!... Send the envoys from the Cao Ying to the court!"

Following the shouts of the guards, two figures appeared in front of the lobby door. The leader was a young man in his early twenties, with a slender figure, a white face like jade, and piercing eyes. When he turned around, he was soul-stirring... ...it was Sima Yi!

Looking at the array of knives in the hall, and then glanced at the frying pan, Sima Yi smiled faintly and stepped in, neither fast nor slow, just like walking on a tree-lined path, without paying attention to the white blade hanging above his head at all. Compared with the terrifying skeleton 'Jingguan', this is just child's play!

Half a step behind, there was another deputy envoy. This person was tall and hulking, with a pair of red-gold eyes that glowed red, like an evil ghost.

Yan Ming held the gift list in one hand and the saber at his waist in the other. His body was tense and he was full of vigilance, but what he was watching was not Yuan Jun's soldiers, but Sima Yi beside him. His red eyes were fixed on the opponent's neck, never left!

Before setting off, Xiao Yi summoned him in private, and gave an order: "Monitor Sima Yi's every move, and if there is a rebellious heart, kill him immediately. No matter what, you can't let this 'Tomb Tiger' be used by others, let alone kill him." Used by the Yuan family in Hebei! '

"Under the order of the governor of the West, I met the third son and gave me a small gift...five thousand catties of red gold, two buckets of pearls, fifty gemstones, and twenty pairs of jade..." Sima Yi said the gift, but his back was Pull it straight, without any intention of bowing!

"Since you are an envoy, why don't you bow down when you see my son? Do you have people who don't understand etiquette under the command of Commander Xiao?" After listening to the list of gifts, Yuan Shang was satisfied, but pretending to be majestic, he waved his hand and stepped forward with a knife and axe One step later, he stared at the two of them covetously, and with a single command, he cut the corpses apart!

"Hehe, the governor of the capital is strict in governing the army. How can the generals and schools under his command not understand etiquette? But, as the saying goes-do as the Romans do, I have read Hebei's way of hospitality, and I just want to imitate it!" Sima Yi immediately retorted back, you Treating guests in a frying pan, I respond with arrogance, everyone is just half a catty!

"Hiding a needle in the cotton, you are really eloquent. Governor Xiao sent you here. I don't know what it means?" Feng Ji took over the words. It is useless to argue with each other. The key is to find out the purpose of the other party and be prepared to deal with it!

"The two families of Cao and Yuan have always lived in harmony and have never used swords. Now that the two armies are facing each other, swords are on the verge of breaking out. The governor was afraid of hurting the peace, so he sent this envoy here. One is to show sincerity, good neighborliness and friendship, and the other is to discuss major issues. , Divide the land of Xiliang equally!

While talking, Sima Yi took out a letter from his bosom, which was written by Xiao Yi to Yuan Shang. The words in it were quite polite, talking about admiring the reputation of the fourth and third sons of the Yuan family, admiring the literary and military strategies of the third son, and hoping Coexist peacefully and resist alien races...

"Come here, let's set up a banquet. I want to entertain your envoy and discuss the harmony between the two families!" In the eyes of men, face is bigger than the sky. With generous gifts, envoys were sent to discuss peace, Yuan Shang's vanity was greatly satisfied, and there was a smile on his little face!

The knife and ax were removed, and a sumptuous banquet was set up, and a peeled and cleaned fat sheep was thrown into the huge cauldron that was about to explode people, and it rolled up and down, and the aroma was overflowing!

"Your envoy was originally from a famous family in Hanoi - the Sima family. No wonder he has a handsome demeanor and a good-looking talent - Shengyin!" At the banquet, after Yuan Shang learned of Sima Yi's background, he treated him more attentively. The famous families in the world are all inextricably linked. Well, as the head of the clan, the Yuan family must have a high regard for officials from the noble family!

"The Sima family has a shallow background and a slightly false name. How can it be compared to the Yuan family in Hebei, with four generations and three princes. They are looked up at home and abroad. Their disciples and former officials are all over the world. They are known as 'the top of the world'. Under the circumstances, there is no match... A general has sons like this, and he has successors, hegemony can be achieved!"

At the banquet, Sima Yi talked eloquently and eloquently, and he praised Yuan's father and son, even eloquently. Our jobs are ruined, you are really a master of beards, and you are invincible!"

"Your envoy just said that Governor Xiao intends to live in peace and divide the cities of the twelve counties of Xiliang equally. I don't know how to divide them? When will they be divided?... What are the soldiers and horses in Hebei going to do?"

Yuan Shang was stunned by the fool, but the judge was very sober, and immediately brought the topic to the real business. There is no such thing as a good thing, and the other party must have a purpose when he comes here!

"Xiliang rebelled, and the people were in dire straits. Cao and Yuan sent troops to quell the rebellion at the same time. Afterwards, the city should be divided equally. As for how to divide it?" While speaking, Sima Yi took out another scroll from his bosom, and after opening it, It's a map of the Twelve Counties of Xiliang, with a striking red line on it, which just divides it into two!

"The Jie people are vicious and occupy our Han land. The governor of my family is about to march westward. Unfortunately, there is a slight shortage of armored soldiers, food and grass. I hope that the third son can help. After this is done, Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Zhangye, Fufeng, Longxi, Jincheng six The county belongs to Cao Ying, and the six counties of Xiping, Wuwei, Beidi, Anding, Hanyang, and Wudu belong to Yuan's family. In addition, the mining area of ​​Jinshan can be owned by the two families and divided equally!"

"Six county cities, plus half a golden mountain, Ghost Face Xiao Lang is really a great handiwork!" Shen Pei and Feng Ji looked at each other, and their hearts were a little moved. As for Yuan Shang, his eyes turned red, his saliva flowed out, and his excited hands Everyone trembled!

"Okay, it's a deal, my son will fund the armor, equipment, food and grass. After the matter is completed, Xiliang will be divided equally!"

685. Chapter 685 Desert Ship

Dividing Xiliang equally is a matter of great importance, and Yuan Shang did not dare to take it lightly. After the banquet, the third son resisted the urge to go back to the big bed, and brought along the two counselors, Yan Liang and Feng Ji. The two generals, Wen Chou, came to the secret room of the mansion together to discuss countermeasures!

Open the sheepskin map, look at the cities of the twelve counties above, five people, ten pairs of eyes, all glowing hotly, the most important thing for the princes of the world is the territory, with the land and the city, there will be countless wealth, there will be monstrous The power, let me ask, who wouldn't be tempted?

"The land of the six counties, half a golden mountain, is a huge temptation!" Feng Ji clapped his fists, expressing everyone's aspirations, the great rivers and mountains, who wouldn't want to hold them in their hands!

"The land of six counties, half a golden mountain, is also a huge trap!" The judge looked calm, and expressed everyone's scruples, how could the bait thrown by 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' be so delicious!

"It's a matter of success or failure. Even if the steel hook is hidden, I will eat the bait. The two gentlemen are resourceful, and I hope you can teach me!" Yuan Shang gritted his teeth and stared at the map. It is the gains and losses of the six counties and cities, and it is even more related to the ownership of the four states of Hebei!

This expedition to Xiliang, Yuan Shang shoulders a heavy responsibility, and it is also a great opportunity for him to make meritorious deeds and enhance his personal prestige. Being able to share the land of twelve counties equally with Xiao Yi is definitely an honorable thing in front of the people of the world, which is enough to prove his worth Of course, if you can defeat this 'greedy wolf' and annex the entire Xiliang, that would be great!

"Give Xiao Yi armaments, food and grass, and let him send troops to the west to fight to the death with the Jie people. If the Jie people win, Xiao Yi will undoubtedly die. If Xiao Yi wins, hehe..." Feng Ji pointed to the Hexi Corridor on the map , After a hard pause, "Let's cut off the return route and cut off his food and grass supply line. Within half a month, his army will disperse, and our army will win without a fight!"

"Xiao Lang is as treacherous as a fox and as brave as a wolf. You must not underestimate them. It is not enough to just provide armaments. It is best to send a team to go out together. First, you can monitor their movements nearby and learn the inside story. Second, we will also With the capital to bargain, it is only right and proper to send troops together to divide Xiliang equally!" Shen Pei is cautious by nature, and it is not easy to defeat Xiao Yi, it would be great if he could evenly share!

"Jiang Qizhong is brave, talented, flexible and changeable, he can take this job!" Yan Liang and Wen Chou looked at each other and recommended a general under their command. Not everyone can do the job of dancing with 'wolves' !

"The two gentlemen are right. My son will send Jiang Qi to lead [-] troops to go out with the army, and then let the two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou station troops at key points to wait and see success or failure. If they succeed, they will dominate Xiliang. The cities of the six counties, why not do it!" Yuan Shang looked up to the sky and laughed, it was a pleasant thing to be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman and plot against the world-shaking 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang'!

"Sima Yi is resourceful, handsome, and comes from a famous family. The young master can keep him as a treat. One is as a hostage to prevent Xiao Lang from suddenly changing, and the other is to buy him and win over the entire Sima family. The hegemony is also of great benefit!" After a moment of contemplation, the judge added another knife, recalling the conversation in the lobby, this young man is by no means an idler!

"Dashan, this young master also admires this person very much. He is eloquent and eloquent, and he is personable. He is called a young hero. Xiao Yi used it as an envoy, but he has given up his talent. Let me subdue him!"

The next day, Yuan Shang personally wrote a book and sent envoys to Jincheng to discuss the matter of sending troops from the two coalition forces. Sima Yi stayed in the mansion for a while, and asked for a treat to show his sincerity!

In contrast, Sima Yi did not object, and lived in Yuan Shang's mansion generously. He was originally a son of a noble family, and he was influenced since childhood. Apart from learning, he can also play, such as playing piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, shooting, hunting and fishing, and watching flowers on horseback. Everything is perfect, everything is perfect!

In just a few days, Sima Yi became Yuan Shang's best playmate. The two were inseparable, sharing the same bed when they were sitting, and the same car when they were out. , people can crush people like them!

When playing, Yuan Shang naturally solicited him in every possible way, gold, silver and jewelry, stunning beauties, high-ranking officials and rich salary, all promised. Sima Yi smiled and did not answer, neither denying nor agreeing!

Cao and Yuan are the strongest among princes fighting for hegemony. If Sima Yi hadn't met Yuan Shang, he would have thought about joining the Hebei Group. But after seeing the character of the three princes, he can be very sure that the overlord of the Central Plains is not the Cao family. As a smart person, he will naturally stand on the side of the winner!

Only by standing on the side of the winner, can you have a chance to become the ultimate winner!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

In Jincheng, Xiao Yi is actively preparing for the expedition. Xiliang is a land of more than two thousand miles in length and breadth. It is baked, and it is extremely cold at night, dripping water into ice, and walking in it is like falling into hell!

Marching in such a harsh environment is by no means an easy task. In order to maintain the physical strength of the soldiers, a large amount of supplies must be prepared, such as tents, dry food, drinking water, clothing, medicine, firewood, horse fodder... there are so many things, nothing is missing!
