Youzhou is adjacent to Jizhou.

In the state pastor's mansion in Yecheng, Yuan Shao glanced at the group of strategists summoned below, and his face was very ugly.

"Tell me, who did this?"

Yuan Shao calmed his voice and forcibly suppressed the anger in his chest.

When he learned that Gongsun Fan had died in the Bohai County Mansion, his first reaction was to be happy that he had finally eliminated such a scourge. But it didn't last long, and sorrow followed.

Gongsun Fan died in Jizhou, how could Gongsun Zhan, as his brother, give up?

Speaking of which, the assassin is too, you say that if you kill someone, you will kill someone, why do you want to leave a 'my lord Yuan Shao has not killed', and provoke Gongsun Chan nakedly. This is not equivalent to yellow mud falling off the crotch of the pants, and I can't tell how it is.

After thinking about it, Yuan Shao felt that this matter was very likely to be an assassin secretly sent by one of his strategists in order to share his worries.

Therefore, he gathered all the strategists under his command today.

Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others in the hall, you look at me and I look at you, but no one is silent.

"Why, don't you speak? Or do you know that you have done something stupid and dare not admit it? ”

Yuan Shao's eyes were taken away from Tian Feng, who was at the top, Tian Feng was wise and very famous in Jizhou. When Yuan Shao first served as the pastor of Jizhou, he personally brought valuable gifts and visited him very humbly, only to recruit Tian Feng, and then immediately appointed him as a special driver, which shows trust and respect.

Yuan Shao thought about it, Tian Feng shouldn't be able to do such a stupid thing.

So he looked away and fell on the frustration next to Tian Feng.

Seeing the suspicion of the lord, he got up and arched his hand: "Lord, you know me, although I am not a person with unparalleled wisdom, but my methods have always been upright and bright, and I disdain this kind of petty methods in secret. ”

Yuan Shao thought about it too, and looked at the strategist behind him again.

"Lord, you know me, if I make a move, it will definitely not be possible to draw any handwriting, and before I make a move, I will definitely inform the lord in advance." Xu You, who had a mustache on his lips, got up and said.

Yuan Shao felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he looked down again.

"Lord, you know me, if I do it, let alone Gongsun Fan, even the servants and maids in his mansion will not leave a single living mouth, let alone let people go to report to Gongsun Zhan."

Guo Tu said plainly, and the many strategists under Yuan Shao were the most ruthless of him.

Subsequently, Xun Chen, Judge and others also expressed their thoughts one after another, all saying that they were not doing it.

"If it's not you, who could it be?" Yuan Shao rubbed his swollen forehead, unable to figure out what to do.

At this time, Tian Feng, who was in the first place, spoke up: "Lord, please think about it carefully, Gongsun Fan is dead, and the Jiyou War is inevitable, so who can get the greatest benefits in this world?" ”

Yuan Shao was not stupid, he thought about Tian Feng's words, and suddenly came to his senses: "You mean, Lu Bu!" ”

Tian Feng nodded, "I can't think of anyone else except him." ”

Fu Zhu and the others also nodded in approval, it is okay to deceive ordinary people by such a simple method, and it is impossible to hide it from them.

"Okay, then I'll fix a letter immediately and send someone to Gongsun Zhan. Explain the facts to him, saying that the murder of Gongsun Fan has nothing to do with Jizhou, but was committed by Lu Bu. ”

Yuan Shao paid attention, and the tense expression on his face eased a lot.

"Lord!"

Tian Feng frowned and shouted.

Yuan Shao looked over, and the fox asked, "What else is going on with Yuan Hao?" ”

"Lord, we don't have conclusive evidence, and Lu Bu won't take the initiative to admit it, do you think Gongsun Chan will believe what you say?"

Tian Feng asked rhetorically, looking quite disappointed with Yuan Shao's performance and reaction.

Yuan Shao hesitated for a while, and then asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

Tian Feng obviously had a plan for this, and replied in an orderly manner: "Lord, Gongsun Fan is rampant and domineering in the Bohai Sea, which makes people and gods angry, it is better to use this matter to have a showdown with Gongsun Zhan, and he will definitely be able to win the support of the people." ”

As soon as the words fell, someone shouted to dissuade them: "Lord, don't! ”

Yuan Shao regarded it as the king of Gongcao.

"Gongsun Chan fights with foreign races all the year round, not to mention that he is brave and aggressive, and the iron cavalry under his command is also extremely fierce, and if he starts a war, I am afraid it will only be more auspicious and less auspicious, please think twice!"

"My lord, Wang Gongcao is reasonable, please act cautiously."

A few years ago, they fought repeatedly with Gongsun Zan on the border of Jizhou, Yuan Shao lost more and won less, and almost put the entire Jizhou into it.

Hearing everyone say this, Yuan Shao also felt a little bottomless in his heart, maybe he was really scared by Gongsun Zan before.

"You are going to bewitch the lord!"

At the critical moment, Tian Feng stood up again and debated loudly with these peacemakers: "Gongsun Chan is just a reckless man, he has no strategy, and there are not a few decent generals under his command. On the other hand, the lord is not only supported by the people of Jizhou, but also his generals such as Yan Liang and Wen Chou are even more invincible, as long as the lord is willing to make up his mind, we will definitely be able to defeat Gongsun! ”

"Please make up your mind and fight to the death with Gongsun Zhan!" Fu Zhu, Xu Yu and others asked at the same time.

"This ......"

Yuan Shaoning shrank his brows, and was a little embarrassed for a while.

The public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, and he did not know whose opinion to listen to.

"Lord, time is running out, taking advantage of the right time, place and people are all on our side, it is the best time to defeat Gongsun Zhan! Don't miss it! Tian Feng lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground and pleaded loudly.

The lord of his family is good at everything, but his ears are too soft. This kind of indecisive character is a great taboo for the monarch.

Yuan Shao saw Tian Fengdu say this, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "Okay, from now on, gather the soldiers of the three armies and send troops to Youzhou with me!" ”

Three days later, Yuan Shao issued a proclamation and officially declared war on Gongsun Zhan.

At the same time, Cao Cao, who guarded the Lotus Mountain, also found some clues.

Although the soldiers of Lu Bu's army are still the same as before, they come to fight in front of the village every day, but according to the scout's report, they have not seen Lu Bu in the camp in Heze for many days.

Could it be that Lu Bu had already seen through Gongda's plan and secretly took people to Chenliu?

Cao Cao frowned, his small eyes full of suspicion and thought.

"My lord, I just got the exact news, Lu Bu has led the wolf cavalry camp many days ago and left the Heze camp!" Xiahou Yuan looked hurried, and entered the account and hugged his fists to report.

"Good!"

Hearing the news, Cao Cao shouted, smashed his fist in his palm, and was in high spirits.

As soon as Lu Bu left, there was no general to guard Heze here, which was the best time sent by God.

"Miaocai, you quickly go and integrate an elite team, and follow me to attack the camp tonight!"

Unlike Yuan Shao's indecision, Cao Cao obviously knew how to seize opportunities.
