Chapter 422: Yuan Cao's Murderer Xu Ziyuan Ends the Side Story Tomorrow Morning)

"Fengxiao, Zhongde, you have good ideas. Let's take the plan of filial piety as your first choice. After all, if this plan is successful, it will be more effective for Lu Bu. Zhongde, your plan is an alternative. Once the time for the plan of filial piety is not ripe, you can use yours. After all, Yan Liang or Wen Chou breaks through the Bian River, this excuse can be used at any time, even if it does not exist, we can take the initiative to create it."

The treatment effect is good, but the treatment risk is preferred.

Poor treatment effect, but ensure that it is effective as a spare tire.

That's how it was decided.

Seeing this, Cheng Yu, who was also in the intelligence work of Cao Cao, immediately suggested to Cao Cao: "Ming Gong, the envoy who sent Sima Lang to seek peace with Yuan Shao should also be sent. After all, we are sure to win against Lu Bu when Sima Lang was halfway through the negotiations.

What's more, Lu Bu was not completely welcomed under Yuan Shao's command. When Sima Lang went to negotiate, he could send a confidant from Ming Gong to follow him, bring a large amount of gold jewelry and jewelry, and bribe the counselors around Yuan Shao, or see who had a sympathy for Ming Gong. If you have an old friend, Ming Gong could "persuade Ming Gong to follow the leader of Yuan Shao" and attribute the persuasion to him. Or if you search for the counselors around Yuan Shao who were not in harmony with Lu Bu, you would also slander the golden pearls...

After all, it was also a great achievement to ask for peace by Ming Gong in the end. How could he not sell it to Yuan Shao in advance to the counselors around Yuan Shao? After the news of defeating Lu Bu was confirmed, someone around Yuan Shao would advise Yuan Shao to accept Ming Gong's request for peace, which would be considered as a foresight to be credited."

Cao Cao originally wanted to agree in one breath, but when the matter was about to come, he trembled a little and said worriedly: "This kind of thing will not be wrong again, will he? That time he cheated us!"

Cheng Yu was originally embarrassed and avenged his shame and gritted his teeth and said, "If you ruin the great affairs of Ming Gong, Yu is willing to be punished! What kind of face does he have to serve Ming Gong? If he backfired, Yuan Shao would hold a grudge against Ming Gong even more, Ming Gong would kill Yu's head and apologize to Yuan Shao!

Yu predicted that there must be no one around Yuan Shao who is so far-sighted and dedicated to the public and who can make Yuan Shao obey the plan! The previous time Liu Bei saw through Wang Bi was entirely because Liu Bei had a magical and ghost-making man like Li Su. Who is around Yuan Shao worthy of being compared with Li Su?"

Cao Cao was also brave. After thinking about it, he felt that there was indeed a lot of differentiated operational space. Moreover, the disunity of civil servants under Yuan Shao was famous, which was completely different from the civil servant group under Liu Bei.

As long as you know yourself and your enemy, do it as long as you should! Don’t be afraid of the shadow of a snake!

Thinking of this, Cao Cao pretended to smile and said, "What do you mean by Zhongde? Since it is my approved decision, I must be responsible for it myself. If things are not harmonious, it is God's will. How can you blame the person who makes suggestions? In the future, even if you know everything, you will speak out. If you have plans, you will be happy. I will never blame others for saying it!"

Cheng Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Since the incident involving Wang Bixue Ti's spy last year, his always-hanging heart and the accumulated shame have been vented. He felt more and more that he would like to serve Cao Cao to the death and repay his kindness for his goodwill.

...

On May 12, Cao Cao's army began to plan to send cavalry according to Guo Jia's plan, pretending to attack the key points of Lu Bu's army's enemy-behind grain storage, making the noise big, luring Lu Bu to mistakenly think that Guandu's vacant attack was powerful.

However, such a battle cannot be planned in one day. In order to find out the actual location of Lu Bu’s army, Cao Cao’s army must do some additional investigation work.

Because the investigation on the first day was not smooth, Cheng Yu suggested that Cao Cao add a plan the next day: to add some guards to the team of envoys who sent Sima Lang to negotiate peace with Yuan Shao, and then use the diplomatic immunity of "the two armies will not kill the envoys when fighting", so that the envoys will be secretly spread along the way at night to investigate the enemy situation within 20 or 30 miles of each left and right along the way.

This is just a trick of idle chess. If you don’t do it, Cao Cao will be correct.

Sima Lang took Du Xi, a confidant Cao Cao who was responsible for spy spies, and asked Du Xi to protect Sima Lang and inquire about military information along the way.

He also brought a fellow villager and friend of Cao Cao, named Ding Fei, who was responsible for carrying a large number of gold and jewelry and secretly gave money to Yuan Shaojun's advisers who could win over.

Ding Fei was originally a greedy person. In history, he helped Cao Cao manage the military farming accounts and did a lot of corruption such as "exchanging the fat cattle from the government for his own thin cattle". In the military farming areas under Ding Fei's management, the official cattle were much thinner than the cattle under the rule of other Dianyuan Generals, and almost skinny.

This time he was asked to be responsible for such shameful acts. There was no clear account yet. Cao Cao also knew that Ding Fei would definitely get his own pockets. But Cao Cao also knew that big things were important. Now is not the time to settle the accounts. When Liu Bang asked Chen Ping to deal with Fan Zeng, did he not ask Chen Ping for detailed accounts?

Ding Fei is a man who is greedy and despicable. He is very good at forming cliques and making friends with wine and meat, so he needs to do this. Moreover, Ding Fei also knew in his heart that he would not be punished if he came back alive this time. The key is to complete his mission! Everything is easy to say after completing his mission.

...

The delegation set out in a hurry. After a day of walking, they passed Fengqiu County and arrived at the north bank of Wuchaoze. They had met scouts from Lu Bu's army along the way, but Cao Cao's army's delegation showed their identity and said that they were unable to defeat and wanted to seek surrender and reparation from Yuan Shao, so the scouts from Lu Bu's army did not dare to stop them. They just watched the surveillance pass through the defense zone and did not allow Cao Cao's army to run around.

In this way, Ding Fei also took out at least twenty or thirty golden cakes, dozens of pearls and some jades, which were specialized in Donghai County, and bribed the officers of the Lu Bu army and released them within their power.

After arriving on the north bank of Wuchaoze, Sima Lang and Ding Feidu Shi finally breathed a little relieved, because the front was not the defense area of ​​Lu Bu’s army, but the defense area of ​​other Yuan Shao’s army troops.

"The opportunity is rare. Why don't you take this opportunity to disperse the scouts and detective cavalry and check if there is a nearby grain camp for Yuan Shao's army? The Lu Bu army was so strict that it was estimated that the envoy's regular scout troops would not be able to go to such a deep place to inquire."

Du Xi discussed with Ding Fei in this way, and Ding Fei agreed after hearing this.

The two of them decided to take advantage of the opportunity to rest in the camp that night, and in the name of alert, they sent some scout teams. Even Ding Feidu Xi himself had to lead the team himself, leaving Sima Lang in the camp, so that if the enemy came to the camp to investigate, the soldiers would not run away.

Ding Fei and a team of people touched the west from the nightclub camp for less than twenty miles. When they saw that there seemed to be a slight light in front, they were surprised to find out whether they had touched the latter rear camp of Yuan Shaojun and wanted to investigate further, but suddenly, Yuan Shaojun's scout appeared.

"Put down your weapons! Otherwise, you will shoot arrows! Who dares to spy on the camps under General Cavalry!" Yuan Shao's archers surrounded him.

Ding Fei secretly shouted that he was not good, so he quickly took out a few pearls and smiled: "Don't get me wrong, several military officials! We were sent by the envoy Cao to General Cavalry to cede land and ask for peace! We stayed here not far away, afraid that it would not be safe in the middle of the night, so we went out to guard the camp for a little while, but we didn't dare to go far."

Several Yuan Shaojun officers took a look and took the pearl first, but were reluctant to give up the credit. As soon as they planned, they took Ding Fei: "Who knows if what you said was a fraud! At most, we won't kill you, and we will take it to Xu Zhanjun to question!"

Ding Fei complained in his heart, but he did not dare to resist, so he had to be escorted to Wuchao Camp with his entourage scouts and cavalry.

I don’t know how long it took to be crooked, but he heard the whisper outside, and he seemed to be being held in a tent first. After a while, someone who seemed to be a counselor of Yuan Jun walked in.

The strategist slapped the table and asked majesticly: "Who are you? You dare to serve Cao Cao, what are you trying to do? You still don't come here."

Ding Fei took off his blindfold, looked at the other party for a while, and knew what to say. He stammered for a while, and asked with a thick face: "This gentleman is a fairy-like and elegant man, and he dares to ask who is the master? Ding Fei of Qiao County, who is so lucky to meet the master."

The man was stunned for a moment and said arrogantly: "Am you and Ah Man? Hey, the country man is not blind. I know that my official's scheming and elegant attitude is Xu You and Xu Ziyuan, the general of the cavalry, whom I trust most! Answer my question quickly!"

Ding Fei's eyes rolled a few times, quickly searching for Cao Cao's introduction to the counselors under Yuan Shao's tent, and then suddenly smiled:

"It turns out to be Mr. Ziyuan! Isn't that also my envoy's old friend? I have to pay homage to Mr. Xu to the end of my studies and I have a blessing in my life! Mr. Xu, it was God's gift to him. My envoy has long said that he did not want to be an enemy of his old friend General Cavalry. General Cavalry wanted territory and gave it to General Cavalry, and just regarded it as a filial piety to his elder brother.

However, a villain made a hindrance from it and separated from the General of the Cavalry and the Envoy of my family. My family's envoy could not find a chance to give the credit for "convincing my family's envoy to surrender to Duke Yuan" to a trusted adviser and old friend of Yuan's envoy. Today I was captured by Xu Zhanjun, and this is God's will! It is God's will that the General of God persuaded my lord to surrender to Duke Yuan to the Envoy of the Envoy!"

Xu You's eyes lit up, a little greedy, and a little unbelievable: "Oh? Cao Aman is willing to surrender to Yuan Shao? What have you been doing long ago? Isn't it obvious that he was still fighting with Lu Bu in Guandu?"

When Ding Fei saw that there was a show, he walked forward and whispered some of the emergency lines that Cao Cao and Cheng Yu taught him: "Join the army, you are also a person who can use it around Yuan Gong. You won't be unable to see it. Yuan Gong is also afraid of Lu Bu, right? To put it bluntly, my master was actually willing to follow Yuan Gong's leader from the beginning. They jointly assisted King Yan, Yuan Gong as the leader, and my master was the deputy.

But he knew that Mr. Yuan was greedy and was afraid of giving up the land directly. Mr. Yuan felt that he was at his fingertips and was greedy and looked down upon him. In the future, he respected the King of Yan in the same dynasty. Mr. Yuan would be domineering and invaded the interests of our lord. Therefore, only by seeking peace through war, we should clearly show that our army should not be insulted before seeking peace, and also blocked the leisurely mouths of some unrighteous people around Yuan Gong who advised him to be greedy for small things. Only then could Mr. Yuan listen to the words of such a wise and wise man who was so kind and kind, right?

Therefore, taking this opportunity, our Lord is willing to help Ming Gong weaken Lu Bu, slash his spirit, and make Yuan more capable of controlling Lu Bu. Our Lord is also free from worrying about being ceded to the cessation of land every day. Since Mr. Yuan has been loyal to Lu Bu and respected by my Lord, wouldn’t it be the best of all three things? If Xu joined the army to promote this and make great contributions in front of Mr. Yuan, our Lord will also... have another statement, that is the best of all things."

Ding Fei's last sentence was very low, and he also hinted Xu You with his eyes, and Xu You sent all his personal soldiers away on the pretext. Ding Fei then pulled a hole from his belt and pulled out some golden leaves from it.

He also did a lot of preparations this time. He did not bring too much hard gold, silver and jewelry to hide when he went out of the camp at night. So there were still these hidden gold leaves left. Even the Yuan army scout officer had not found it, and he could be sent directly to Xu You at this moment.

Xu You smiled proudly: "Cao Aman is quite attentive to his old friends."
