Chapter 459: The Alliance Under the City

Lü Buti's 50,000 troops went out of Huguan, and the soldiers pointed directly at Ww Wlā

A large number of enemies suddenly appeared in the rear, and all of Qin Feng's forces were put into the battlefield on Yuan Shao's side. It can be said that if Qin Feng does not return to the army, there will be no garrison force in the rear to speak of.

But Qin Feng withdrew his troops and went back, will Yuan Shao give up?

Yuan Shao will definitely not let go of such a peerless opportunity, Qin Feng's situation is within reach.

"Lord, mobilize the strength of the Black Mountain Army." Frustrated, he said.

Qin Feng pondered for a long time and felt that now was not the time. "The Montenegrin Army is a strange army, and if it is used now, it will expose the strength of our army in advance."

There was a moment of silence in the tent.

At this time, Xu Chu walked in, "Lord, Yuan Shao's envoy Xu Yu asks to see him." ”

Qin Feng and they are incredible, what is Xu Yu doing at this time? Coming to blackmail?

"Bring him in." Qin Feng covered the sand table, returned to the hall to do a good job, the civil and military were lined up left and right, and after a while, Xu You came in.

Xu You is an arrogant person, but his posture is very low at the moment, "I've seen Master Hou." He saluted Qin Feng again, and finally said to Xu Shu: "Senior brother, senior brother is polite here." ”

Xu Shu also saluted: "Senior brother." ”

Qin Feng's impression of Xu Yu is mixed, this person has ability, but after Yuan Shao ruled the north, he fell. However, the current Xu Yu has not yet fallen and is quite talented. Qin Feng greeted: "Ziyuan, everyone is not an outsider, so there is no need to be formal." You came to me, but did you have the original news? ”

Xu You arched his hand and said: "There is a letter from my father-in-law, please take a look at it." ”

Dian Wei presented it to Qin Feng for a look, and when Qin Feng looked at it, Xu You said from the side: "My lord remembered the beginning, and he was quite remorseful about the current dispute between the two sides. If there is chaos today, all the soldiers and horses have bad intentions. My lord and the lord of my family are like brothers, and we must not kiss those who are close to each other, and those who are enemies will ...... quickly. ”

That's what the letter meant. In other words, Yuan Shao hoped for a truce and friendship between the two sides. The reason is very sufficient, Jizhou is surrounded by tigers and wolves, and it is not good for both sides to fight like this. In short, peace is beneficial to both sides, and contention is harmful to both.

Qin Feng was dumbfounded, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Yuan Shao's gourd.

At this time, Zhang Ping came in a hurry and whispered: "Lord, Gongsun Chan raised troops to attack Yuan Shao, and the intelligence guard got accurate news, and Gongsun Chan and Lu Bu have united. ”

Qin Feng suddenly realized that Gongsun Chan was fighting Yuan Shao in the back, and Yuan Shao was embarrassed, so he wanted to stop fighting with him.

Qin Feng is now also facing a two-headed battle, and he can't take care of the end of the battle. His heart moved, put down the letter, and said differently: "Ziyuan, Ben has reached a desperate situation at the beginning, and in less than two months, Ben Hou will be able to play a triumphant song." It was a fool's dream to come to seek peace at this time. ”

Xu Shu, Zhao Yun and the other civil and military officers remained silent, in fact, they knew in their hearts that it was impossible for Qin Feng to eliminate Yuan Shao now.

When Xu You heard this, he was no longer low-key, and said: "Master Hou's words are wrong, my lord has the land of the four counties, and the soldiers are full of food. Although it was a temporary defeat, it was a common thing for the defeated soldiers to win or lose. With less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, it is a fool's dream to want to take all the land of my lord. It's just that Xiongcheng like Nanpi and Xindu, I'm afraid that Hou Ye won't be able to break through. ”

Qin Feng looked like he was being said, and said, "The son is tired from afar, cut it down and rest." ”

Xu Yu arched his hand, turned around and swaggered away. In fact, Xu You's heart is very weak, and Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses are getting closer and closer to Nanpi. Even if it is delayed for one more day, Yuan Shao will not be able to stand it. But Xu You must persevere, even if he shows a little weakness, the alliance under the city will not be signed.

Qin Feng was testing Xu You just now, and after Xu You left, he said to Wenwu: "The news of the intelligence guard, Gongsun Zhan is marching into Nanpi, Yuan Shao's base camp. And Lu Bu and Gongsun Zhan jointly sent troops this time. It seems that Yuan Shao did not know the news of Lu Bubing's exit from Huguan. If not, Xu Yu would definitely use this as a blackmail just now. ”

Everyone suddenly realized, and then they understood why Yuan Shao suddenly wanted a truce.

Xu Shu admired and said: "The lord has a foresight, if Yuan Shao learns the news of the arrival of Lu Bujun, he will definitely sign an equal armistice alliance with the lord." However, he didn't know it now, and the lord might be able to take advantage of this to get more. ”

Qin Feng also thought so, and he suddenly smiled and said, "When I first heard that Lu Bu was coming, I was also taken aback. It seems that Yuan Benchu is no better than that. ”

Everyone glanced at each other, thinking that the lord was still calm, if he took the initiative to find Yuan Shao to cease fighting, the matter would be another way.

Now that Lord Yuan Shao has come to sue for peace, Qin Feng has also grasped the initiative. He still needs to make a truce with Yuan Shao, and before Yuan Shao learns that Lu Bu has sent troops.

However, although Qin Feng was also very anxious, it was still in the afternoon that he summoned Xu You again.

When Xu Yu entered the big tent, he was sweating profusely.

Qin Feng invited Xu You to take a seat and said, "Ben Hou has thought about it, if Ben Hou can show sincerity, Ben Hou may be able to consider this matter." ”

Xu You breathed a sigh of relief, he calculated carefully, and always thought that Qin Feng agreed to a truce. Qin Feng must have taken out all his strength in this war, and if he wanted to swallow Yuan Shao in one bite, he would inevitably lose everything. And the land of the four battles in Jizhou was full of enemies, and it was impossible for Qin Feng not to consider it.

As a strategist, Xu You believes that what Qin Feng needs to do most now is to consolidate his existing territory and recruit troops to accumulate strength.

"Master Hou, my lord is absolutely sincere." Xu You followed closely and said: "At the beginning, my lord and the Hou Ye agreed to divide Jizhou equally, but now, my lord has taken a step back and only took the four counties of Hejian, Anping, Bohai and Leling. The rest, Qinghe, Wei County, Guangping, Julu, Changshan, Zhongshan, Zhaoguo and other counties, all belong to Hou Ye. ”

Xu You emphasized: "Master Hou, my lord is really sincere. ”

On the surface, Yuan Shao is indeed sincere, he only needs four counties, and the remaining seven counties are all given to Qin Feng, which is really sincere. However, these seven counties were already in Qin Feng's hands.

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is too sincere, so sincere that the county that takes Benhou is generous to Benhou, and Benhou has to return half of Anping County to Benchu, this abacus is good." ”

Xu You was embarrassed, but said on the surface: "Master Hou, don't say that." ”

Qin Feng's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said, "Ziyuan, Ben Hou won't bother with you here." If this battle continues, it will be even more detrimental to your father-in-law. If your lord is sincere, he will give up Xindu, and he will take the Xindu area as the boundary. ”

"It's ......." Xu You was just about to speak, when Xu Shu on the side came out and said, "Senior brother, my lord has always been kind, but this is still based on the past situation, and he has made great concessions. If not, recklessly, what will be the consequences of Yuan Gong? ”

Xu You was speechless, it was already very good to be able to get Qin Feng's approval for a truce. He then said, "In this case, let Xu Yu reply to my lord, and soon news will come." ”

It was the evening of the day.

Under the city of Xindu, more than 30,000 soldiers and horses from both sides were gathered, and the real alliance under the city was gathered.

Yuan Shao was angry, humiliated, and had to pretend to be ashamed, and said: "Zijin, I'm ashamed of my brother, why do our brothers have to argue?" You can sit down and talk about anything. Yuan Shao was ashamed and said: "Brother Wei knows that he can't live with Zijin, and Zijin's conditions are all agreed to for my brother." ”

At this time, Xu You on the side specially reminded: "Master Hou, my lord agreed to Lord Hou's request, and I hope that Lord Hou can keep his promise." ”

Tian Feng was upright and couldn't help but mock: "My lord has always kept his promises, unlike some people, who are insidious and cunning, and go back on their word. ”

Yuan Shao cut the land and paid compensation, and his lungs exploded, and when he heard this, he didn't have a seizure. But for the sake of his life, Yuan Shao held back and pretended to be ashamed.

Qin Feng saw that Yuan Shao was forced to do so, but in fact, Qin Feng himself was also forced to do so. If there is a great chaos today, and the princes of various places rise together, in the battle at this moment, we must not only look at one or two opponents, but take all opponents into account. You must not start a war with everyone at the same time, weigh the pros and cons, and a truce with Yuan Shao is the best choice.

On June 10, 191 AD, Yuan Shao was forced to sign an alliance under the city, ceding the area south of Xindu and reaching an armistice agreement with Qin Feng.

After the agreement was signed, Yuan Shao immediately left Xindu with his soldiers and horses.

On the way to retreat, Yuan Shao sighed. Xu You said from the side: "My lord, it would be best to have such a result. If Qin Feng had learned that Gongsun Zhan had entered the army, things would not have been so simple. ”

Yuan Shao thought about it carefully, and after he comforted himself, he was still a little proud. The mood eased a lot, and said: "Thanks to Ziyuan for convincing Qin Zijin, if you continue to persevere, the foundation will be ruined." He also comforted himself even more: "Even if Gongsun Zhan does not come to attack, it will be difficult to keep the three counties of Hejian, Anping, and Leling." ”

When Xu You heard this, he felt comfortable.

At this moment, a horse came to report, "Report...... Lord, news from the state. LΓΌ Bu killed Zhang Yang, took control of Bingzhou, and was leading an army of 50,000 troops into Yecheng at this moment. ”

"What!" Yuan Shao was stunned, he quickly united everything, "It must be that Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan are joining forces to march into the army, and Qin Zijin is also facing the same predicament as me!" Yuan Shao was angry, "If you get the news early and insist on it a little bit, you don't have to cut the land, and you have to let Qin Zi cut the land!" ”

"I'm!" Yuan Shao's whole body was weak, and he couldn't wait to slap himself twice.

"No wonder Qin Zijin is so good at talking this time, it turns out that he is also ...... foundation." Xu Yu sighed for a while, but he also regretted not falling.

However, it is too late to say anything.

At this point, Yuan Shao, with endless chagrin, led the army back to Nanpi and prepared to face the enemy Gongsun Zhan.

On the other side, Qin Feng raised troops overnight and returned to Yecheng.

Although Qin Feng solved Yuan Shao and seized certain benefits from it. But this battle for Jizhou with Yuan Shao cost a lot of combat power. The battle in Jizhou attracted the prying eyes of the jackals all around. Next, Qin Feng, whose strength has been weakened, is about to face the challenge of the tiger wolf Lu Bu, who is even stronger than Yuan Shao. (To be continued.) )
