Chapter 86 The Death of Gongsun
Brother Zhu and Sima were lying and slandering at the banquet, which made many people look at it with admiration.//
Both parties involved think that the other party is the only opponent they meet in their life. They did not expect such an opponent in advance.
Zhu Ge was much more surprised than Sima, because from Liu Xie, he knew that there was this person in Sima's family in Wen County, Hanoi, but Liu Xie felt that Sima Yi would not go to Lao Cao's place at this time, but stayed there to study and study!
His teacher in history was Hu Zhao, but now Hu Zhao has become Zhu Ge's teacher. He has not come to Yizhou to study, and he does not know where his current teacher is. But what Zhu Ge and Liu Xie did not expect was that this young man would actually be with Lao Cao.
When he was in Chengdu, Zhu Ge met a young man who could compete with him. The man was Pang Tong, who looked ugly. However, he did not expect that Sima Yi, who was mentioned by Liu Xie, had such skills, which was beyond Zhu Ge's imagination.
However, although they were shocked by each other's vision and knowledge, they still could not compare with the others present.
For example, Xun Yu and Xun You who sat aside and never said anything from beginning to end, and Cheng Yu who occasionally smiled at the corner of his lips.
Although everyone thought Liu Xie was a bit too bullying at first, he actually sent a young man who had not had a dry breast to negotiate with them, which was really too despised. But now when he saw it, everyone understood that it was them who really underestimated them.
The boy in front of him, both courageous and gaze, was as handsome as his appearance.
If others admire him, then Lao Cao would be more realistic. Seeing the talents of these two young people, Lao Cao couldn't help but think of murder in his heart. Such a young man is really amazing. When he waits a hundred years later, is anyone of his children and nephews his opponent?
Cao Chong, Cao Cang Shuke, has not been born yet! Lao Cao really couldn't think of any other young man besides Sima, who is Zhu Ge's opponent. But Sima Yi is not a master who makes him feel at ease. Although Sima Yi is still young, his surname is calm!
If such a person was not still in his prime, he would never stay with him. Of course, because he is still in his prime, he tried every means to dig him up after hearing the name of Sima Zhongda so that he would not be poached by others!
You know, Sima Yi has the idea of going to Yizhou to study. Although his eldest brother Sima Lang is under his command, this does not prevent him from Sima Yi from running to Liu Xie! Nowadays, many families are doing the "not putting all the eggs in the same blue"!
Sima Yi could not go to Luhuishan to study like in history, because Hu Zhao is also in Yizhou now! So, pretending to be sick is ineffective and he had to come. Although Sima Yi actually doesn't like Cao Cao, there is no way!
This may have changed history because of the arrival of "Liu Xie", which made him pretend to be sick but not succeed. He didn't hide it from Lao Cao! After all, Sima Yi was still young at this time and his acting skills had not reached the level of perfection. It was normal to expose his strength.
At the end of the dinner, naturally, the negotiations were not continued, because there was no result in the debate, so it was meaningless to continue the negotiations. Moreover, everyone had some wine, and Brother Zhu also knew that it was not appropriate to mention negotiations at this time.
After everyone said goodbye, Lao Cao kept Xun Yu and others and said with a smile: "I thought that he sent a child to prepare for a formality, but I didn't expect that he was a prodigy. What do you think?"
Cheng Yu twisted his beard and smiled: "When Yu was this age, he didn't have the sharpness of this little guy! If he could get rid of it from a long-term perspective, it would be the best to get rid of it!"
Xun Yu gritted his teeth and refused to speak, but Old Cao looked at him and said, "Wenruo, what do you think?"
After being named, Xun Yu would not be able to continue to be a mute, so he paused and said, "Young time is gone, it may not be good! Why do you have to do such a shameful thing for a young man? Besides, this young man is not an ordinary irrelevant boy. Even if he does not mention his identity as an envoy, he is still that brother-in-law. If that person is angry, regardless of whether he wants to fight with the lord openly, will the lord be ready to compete with that person?"
Lao Cao also knew this, so he needed to ask everyone. Of course, he also wanted to see if anyone like him wanted to kill that brother. In fact, even if he was an ordinary person, as long as he was the identity of "envoy", he would not move around.
What's more, he is still preparing to go to war with Lao Yuan now.
"Wen Ruo, Ming said that negotiations will be the main one, Zhongda will be the auxiliary one! We will achieve the goal as soon as possible. We don’t have much time to do it. Yuan Benchu is ready to move, and that person has also taken Chang'an. He wants Luoyang and give it to him. But several passes such as Sishui Pass must not be given up!"
"Here!"
Everyone here knows that when the war with Lao Yuan was not in their hands, what consequences would be like. It is really unimaginable. When Lao Cao thought of this, he felt depressed and secretly scolded Li Guo and the other two, but scolding them would not work!
"Actually, they asked for it when they were in Nanyang!" Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "They not only want Luoyang, but Xingyang, but also several surrounding passes. But they also said that they can stay in our hands now, but after the battle with Yuan Benchu is over, they have to return it to them!"
"Ha, I think it's pretty beautiful!" Old Cao chuckled, "They want an excuse to be open and honest, so they can break up with us in the future!"
Xun You shook his head gently and said, "Lord, in You's opinion, it's probably not that simple. In fact, if that person insists on being strong, we can't do anything about it. He only has the saying "All the king's land under the world is the king'. This reason is strong enough, so why bother to find such an excuse now!"
"Why are they?"
Xun You shook his head and said at the end: "You can't guess it. You always feel that they are just bluffing, making us careless, thinking that we are holding a treaty in our hands and not thinking that they will attack us. Perhaps, he just wants to wait until we are careless and give us a thunder blow! If that person joins hands with Yuan Benchu, then we will be really in danger! Moreover, we can't let them watch us fight with Yuan Benchu..."
"Then I don't know what can't he sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight?" Lao Cao asked.
...
Yuan Shao's idea was consistent with Lao Cao's idea. He didn't want to see Liu Xie watching the show. Therefore, after hearing that Liu Xie regained Chang'an and the generals of Guanzhong began to surrender to him, he suddenly became quite irritated. You know, he really wanted to deal with Lao Cao.
Because Lao Cao was the biggest stumbling block for him to go south! But now, Liu Xie, who was originally huddled in Yizhou, has successfully gone north and taken Guanzhong. In this way, it will naturally threaten him. So, should we deal with Liu Xie first? Or should we deal with Lao Cao first? Or should we deal with Lao Cao and deal with Liu Xie together?
After discussion, everyone did not agree that cooperation with Lao Cao would be worth the loss. You should know that there are much more areas between Liu Xie and Lao Cao than them, and if Liu Xie retreats back to Yizhou again, then he will only be in a deadlock. Moreover, who should be the main focus when fighting? Will Lao Cao take the opportunity to make them suffer heavy losses? Lao Cao turns around and fuck them, what will they use to resist?
Furthermore, although Liu Xie took Chang'an, the land of Guanzhong has long been full of holes, and it will not take a day or two to develop it. How could Liu Xie have time to disrupt the situation? If we follow the principle of "distance and fighting against each other in the near world", what we should do now is to get along with Liu Xie and do Lao Cao first!
After hearing this, Boss Yuan also felt that it made sense. What's more, Old Cao was right next to him, so how could he wait until Old Cao recovered and deal with him?
So, Boss Yuan made the decision and sent someone to discuss the alliance with Liu Xie, and then accelerated the removal of Gongsun Zan. Now Gongkongzan has retreated into the iron tower he built in Yijing. Since he retreated, his fate has been destined to be miserable.
On the day when Ma Dai came to Chang'an with Ma Teng's surrender, news shocked the world. Gongsun Zan, one of the eighteen princes, died!
Arson in Yijing [***]! He burned his wife and children to death!
On this day, Zhao Yun hid in the corner, feeling a little depressed, and felt a little sad. After all, that was his former lord. Even though that former lord did not treat him well, he had been a soldier under his command!
However, Liu Xie ignored Zhao Yun's sadness because he knew that such a thing didn't need him to say anything more, and Zhao Yun would have adjusted himself. In fact, if Gongsun Zan could really pay attention to and use Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun would not come to him now.
Unfortunately, Gongsun Zan's death could not shake Liu Xie's glory to take over Chang'an.
In addition, after the news that Zhang Xiu announced his surrender to Liu Xie and moved his troops to Luoyang came out, poor Gongsun Zan did not even get the qualification to "become the headlines" even after he died.
As soon as this news came out, Liu Biao from Jingzhou cursed and almost spit out an old blood. Because Zhang Xiu was in a hurry and did not inform him of his former allies. As a result, after the old Cao soldiers entered Nanyang, Liu Biao reacted. When they wanted to take the opportunity to recover Nanyang, Nanyang had already fallen into Lao Cao's hands.
Liu Biaoheng was dumped by Liu Xie and tore off a piece of meat! But soon, Lao Cao's envoy went to Jingzhou.
The purpose of Lao Cao's sending envoys to Jingzhou was very simple, which was to stabilize Liu Biao and promise to cooperate with Liu Xie to control Nanyang, with Xinye and other places as the boundary, return to Jingzhou to the south of Xinye and to the north of Xinye to his Lao Cao.
