Chapter 1004

With a smile on his lips, Yuan Shao said, "come on, why are you here?"

Zhuge Liang leaned back slightly and said, "Your Majesty, as an envoy of Wei and Chu this time, I will represent the two countries and hope to form an ally with Jin and help each other. Now the situation is different from before. Once Wei, Jin, powerful. But now both Jin and Wei are more or less affected. The king of Wei and the Duke of Chu hoped that the two countries could truly form an alliance and be allies with each other. "

After hearing this, Yuan Shao's eyes narrowed.

Ally with each other!

This means that once the state of Wei was attacked, Yuan Shao had to send troops to help.

Yuan Shao's heart, in fact, is not willing to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu.

When Zhuge Liang saw that Yuan Shao's face was uncertain, he knew that Yuan Shao must have hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, today's world is dominated by the state of Qin. On this occasion, do you think that Jin can survive alone? If the state of Wei is destroyed, I'm afraid the state of Jin will not be able to be independent. Of course, if the state of Jin is not ready to fight against Zhang Xiu, it is not ready to fight against Zhang Xiu. Well, I don't have much to say. "

Yuan Shao snorted and said, "there is hatred between Jin and Qin. Life and death will never stop."

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wise!"

After a pause, Zhuge Liang said, "in that case, does your majesty agree with the alliance?"

"Yes!"

Yuan Shao pondered slightly, but he should go down.

In any case, it's not a bad thing to respond first, and it won't affect the situation.

Zhuge Liang's mind was clear, and he knew Yuan Shao's mind. He said: "Your Majesty, since you are keeping watch and helping each other in the alliance. In fact, it is of little significance to form a simple and common alliance. Today, the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu agree that only when they effectively imitate the pre Qin period, they should send out their own forces and hand them over to a unified person. This is the best way to resist. "

Brush!

Yuan Shao's face changed slightly.

He suddenly changed his face. Originally, he meant that we would make an alliance verbally, just as before. I am willing to support you, so I will send troops to help you. If I don't want to help you, I won't help you. It's all up to me.

Now, it's different.

This is to hand over their respective forces, which is tantamount to losing their previous free decision.

Yuan Shao was conflicted, so he said: "Kong Ming, it's OK to form an alliance, but if both sides want to send their own troops and then hand them over to one person, in my opinion, it's not appropriate."

Zhuge Liang said: "since your majesty is willing to form an alliance, why do you think it is inappropriate? Even I think that once Zhang Xiu's troops are withdrawn, the next step is to attack the state of Jin. Isn't it that your majesty has not made preparations? "

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the first one to attack Zhang Xiu is Cao Wei, not Jin."

"Your majesty

Zhuge Liang spoke confidently and calmly.

"There are three reasons why I judge this," he said

Yuan Shao said, "I'd like to hear it in detail."

He wanted to hear what Zhuge Liang could say. Yuan Shao himself thought that after Zhang Xiu destroyed the state of Wu, the next step must be to attack the state of Wei, not his state of Jin. This is his judgment.

Zhuge Liang said: "first, in Zhang Xiu's eyes, the state of Jin is better to attack, and the state of Wei is tough. Zhang Xiu was at war with the state of Jin, especially the last time she forced her majesty to hand over Guo tu. the whole state of Jin did not really fight. Especially before the big Jin bank, Zhang Xiu's heart must think that the state of Jin is weak. In contrast, the state of Wei and the state of Chu, even though Cao Cao was in trouble, he was fighting to the end. Cao Wei and the state of Chu all worked together to fight Zhang Xiu to the death. "

Yuan Shao snorted, said: "I Yuan Shao's strength, not afraid of Zhang Xiu."

Zhuge Liang said: "it's your Majesty's business to be fearless. I know that the state of Jin is powerful and has enough strength to resist Zhang Xiu's attack. But in Zhang Xiu's eyes, after Guo Tu's incident, he thought that the state of Jin was weak. Because this is what Zhang Xiu thinks in her heart. "

After hearing this, Yuan Shao was silent for a moment.

He can't argue.

After all, he and Cao Cao took a very different way. Facing the pressure of Zhang Xiu's army, he gave up Guo Tu in his hand, in exchange for Zhang Xiu's withdrawal.

But Cao Cao fought to the end.

Everyone knows that Cao Wei is tough.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang made a judgment on the basis of this matter, and there was no mistake in determining that Zhang Xiu was primarily attacking the state of Jin.

Zhuge Liang continued: "second, Yecheng is the capital of Jin, which is closer to Qin. To attack Yecheng from Hanoi County, there is no long journey, no enough strategic depth, and no long enough logistics supply line. But in the state of Wei, it was different. Even now Yanzhou and Yuzhou fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu, but there are still voices against Zhang Xiu everywhere. Many troops rushing into the mountains have to come out to plunder from time to time, so that if Zhang Xiu attacks Qingzhou, the logistics supply line is very long and dangerous. This is my second judgment. "Yuan Shao's face was black and his heart was tense.

Because Zhuge Liang's words, he thinks that there is a certain truth. Combining the above two factors, Zhang Xiu's attack on the state of Jin is extremely beneficial to Zhang Xiu. Therefore, Yuan Shao was nervous at this time.

He listened to Zhuge Liang's words and praised Zhuge Liang's wit in his heart.

In fact, Ju Shu thinks that even if Zhuge Liang's words are reasonable, in fact, Zhang Xiu may not send troops to attack the state of Jin, because Zhang Xiu's troops have always been unpredictable, which is not settled.

I don't know Zhang Xiu's mind.

However, he didn't refute Zhuge Liang, because in his heart, he hoped to resist Zhang Xiu. Only when Zhang Xiu's offensive is blocked, can there be a chance of relaxation, and the state of Jin has a chance to survive.

That's what I want to do.

He is the main combatant.

Yuan Shao took the initiative to ask: "Kong Ming, what's the third reason?"

With a confident look on his face, Zhuge Liang said, "the third reason is that there is a foundation for Zhang Xiu to make trouble in Jin. Because of the big Jin bank, the people's hearts and minds in the whole state of Jin were in disorder. As long as Zhang Xiu incites, it is very likely that the people will make trouble. On the contrary, in the territory of the state of Wei, people are willing to follow the king of Wei. Therefore, if Zhang Xiu fanned the unrest a little, the situation in the state of Jin would be conducive to Zhang Xiu's attack. So under such a premise, Zhang Xiu is the first choice to attack Jin. "

Yuan Shao looks black.

As the emperor of a country, yuan Shaozi knew the situation of Jin, so he knew Zhuge Liang's words were correct. Especially since the big Jin bank incident, there have been people jumping up and down in the whole country of Jin, which has never subsided.

Zhuge Liang saw that Yuan Shao's face sank, knew that Yuan Shao had believed him, and even knew that he had intimidated Yuan Shao, so he said again: "Your Majesty, so I think Zhang Xiu must be the first to attack Jin. The state of Wei is the most reluctant to see the failure of Jin, because once the failure of Jin, the state of Wei is helpless. In fact, the same is true for Jin. Once the state of Wei fell, the state of Jin was isolated. Under this premise, the state of Jin will not last long. Therefore, the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu jointly arranged for me to come as a special envoy to see your majesty, hoping to promote the alliance between the two sides. "

Yuan Shao's eyes, however, fell on Ju Shi and said, "Ju Qing, what do you think?"

Ju Shi was an important Minister of Jin State and a confidant of Yuan Shao.

He believes in people.

He looked respectful and said, "Your Majesty, I agree with the analysis of Zhuge Kongming. Because the state of Jin, or the state of Wei, is cold in the mouth and cold in the teeth. As a matter of fact, it is the most appropriate way for both sides to send out their own troops and then put them under the command of a unified person. Your majesty, I agree with this proposal. "

Yuan Shao nodded, then he stopped talking, but fell into meditation.
