Jizhou, Bohai County, Nanpi city.
Yuan Shao was appointed governor of Bohai Sea by Dong Zhuo at that time. It has been more than a year since he took office. Yuan Shao recruited troops and horses in Nanpi city and expanded his strength. Although he was only the prefect of two prefectures, he became a powerful vassal of Hebei Province.
But at the moment, Yuan Shao looked at the documents in his hand, but he was worried.
"I can't help it. How can I make a living if I spend so much this year?"
Yuan Shao looked sad. At first, in order to attack Dong Zhuo, he had a large army of 30000 soldiers, and the cost of repairing the armour was 10%. The annual military expenditure was astronomical.
Yuan Shao sighed again and again, but did not find anyone walking into the hall.
"Mr. Yuantu?"
Every Ji waved his hand: "boo, you go down first, I have something important to discuss with the Lord."
The guard nodded, "No
After the guard left, every Ji walked into the hall and said, "what's your sorrow, my lord?"
"It turns out to be a yuan chart. Look, what can we do if the military expenditure this year is so large?"
Yuan Shao saw Feng Ji come over, immediately sighed, and then handed the document in his hand to Feng Ji.
Every discipline results a look, but smile: "I also road lord why things are sad, originally just for this matter, ha ha ha."
Yuan Shao's face was strange: "Yuantu, do you have a way to reduce the expenditure, is it not to persuade someone to cut troops?"
Feng Ji laughs and says, "the Lord keeps 30000 troops and is determined to be in the world. How can Ji advise him to cut troops?"
Yuan Shao sighed: "if you don't cut troops, how can you afford such a large army?"
Every Ji smile: "some actually has a plan, can let the Lord get money and food innumerable."
Yuan Shao's face was happy, and he said in a hurry: "what good strategies do you have in Yuantu? Don't play tricks on someone. Come quickly."
Feng Ji smiles and twists his beard under his jaw, which makes Yuan Shao's appetite satisfied. Then he says: "Jizhou has always been rich, with a population of millions. Looking at the Central Plains in the South and Huguan in the west, it is the foundation of hegemony. The Korean Festival is weak and incompetent, and the master is brilliant and resourceful. Why not take it?"
"Jizhou is indeed rich, but although Han Fu is weak, he also has a group of loyal men under him. Don't drive him. He is proficient in military affairs and knows everything. Geng Wu and min Chun are loyal even though they are not talented enough. Jizhou has at least 50000 troops. How can we succeed?"
Yuan Shao shook his head. In fact, he had long been eager for Jizhou. However, Jizhou is so powerful that it is not easy to take it.
Feng Ji smiles: "don't you know, my Lord, that Han Fu was restrained by Liu Ye and sent Pan Feng, the number one general under his command, to lead 30000 soldiers to the eighth path of Taihang. Now, there are only 20000 soldiers in the hinterland of Jizhou, and less than 10000 soldiers in Yecheng. This is a good time."
Yuan Shao pondered for a while: "if we attack in a big way, I'm afraid Han Fu will send back 30000 troops of Pan Feng. When the two counties are in a stalemate, they can't win. Can the grain and grass of Bohai Sea support a big war?"
Feng Ji showed a strange smile: "in the Warring States period, Zhibo led the Han and Wei families to besiege Zhao Xiangzi. The Han and Wei families rebelled temporarily, and Zhibo was defeated."
Yuan Shaoqi said: "is it hard to say that there are also Han and Wei dynasties in Yecheng?"
Feng Ji did not answer, but turned around and said, "if you brother, please come in."
A broad robe, big sleeves, extraordinary bearing of the scribe walked into the hall, bowed: "Yingchuan Xunzi, met the original Duke."
Feng Ji introduced: "Lord, you Ruo brother is Han Fu's counsellor. He knows more about Jizhou."
"Ha ha ha, it's the Xun family of Yingchuan. After the famous family, please sit down quickly."
Yuan Shao got up in a hurry, took Xunzi's hands and asked him to sit down.
Xunzi is worthy of being the son of Xunzi in Yingchuan. He said calmly, "thank you very much."
As soon as he sat down, Yuan Shao couldn't bear to say: "it's said that Mr. youruo works under the account of Hanfu. He should know more about the reality and the reality inside and outside Jizhou. I don't know if he could tell Yuan Mou?"
With a smile, Xun Chen said, "Han Fu is weak and indecisive. Don't drive your wisdom. You can't use his words. However, the general can't rush into the army. Otherwise, even if he forcibly seizes Jizhou, he won't be able to stop people's leisurely mouth."
Yuan Shao nodded heavily. If possible, he didn't want to take Jizhou by force. He made himself like Dong Zhuo.
Feng Ji said with a smile: "we can't forcibly seize Jizhou. In this way, Mr. youruo wants to sacrifice Jizhou on the Korean Festival?"
Xun Chen ha ha ha a smile: "Mr. Yuan Tu is worthy of the right arm of the original Duke, as expected, witty, to the point."
After that, Xun Chen said to Yuan Shao: "Benchu Gong, if you want to stop the world's leisurely mouth, you must let Han Fu give up Jizhou to benchugong on his own initiative."
Yuan Shao is not: "although Han Fu is an old official of yuan family, he will not give in to each other?"
"It's because someone is around Han Fu, but it's also an internal cause. If you want to persuade Han Fu thoroughly, you must have an external force to invade Jizhou, which makes Han Fu's pressure increase greatly. So he has to invite Ben Chu Gong to come. When he persuades him, Han Fu will certainly ask Benchu Gong to lead volunteers to help Ye Cheng."Xunzi said with confidence: "when the time comes, the army of Benchu Gong will arrive in Yecheng. Even if he wants to refuse the Korean Festival, Jizhou civil and military will obey Benchu Gong. He will take charge of Yecheng and control Jizhou in the name of four generations and three princes. It is the blessing of millions of people in Jizhou."
Yuan Shao heard the speech and burst out laughing: "if someone really got Jizhou, he would certainly put his friend in important position and dare not forget each other."
Feng Ji said carelessly: "you Ruo elder brother, this strategy is quite good, but where is your so-called external cause?"
Xun Chen with a smile: "Black Mountain thief."
"Zhang Yan's eyes are always higher than the top, and no one will accept it. Will she listen to our instructions?" Yuan Shao was embarrassed.
"Don't worry, Zhang Yan sent sun Qing to attack Hedong, but Liu Ye's brother has already gone south. With Liu Ye's military ability, sun Qing is afraid that at most he will only escape.
Sun Qing has always been Zhang Yan's right arm. When sun Qing died, Zhang Yan's internal control over the black mountain bandits was greatly reduced. Yu Du and Yang Feng were not satisfied with Zhang Yan. The general could send someone to persuade Yu Du and Yang Feng to support them as the leader of the Black Mountain bandits. He asked them to send troops to attack Yecheng and reward them with gold, silver, grain and grass.
At that time, the black mountain bandits attack Yecheng, and the 30000 elite Jizhou army is outside. Han Fu must be panicked. When the time comes, someone will ask the original Duke to send troops to rescue him. Isn't that enough? "
Xun Chen said with a smile.
Yuan Shao nodded solemnly, and then said to Feng Ji, "Yuantu, you are the most trusted one. When you go to Heishan, you will be convinced of the matter of poison and Yang Feng. Qu Yi will be ordered to lead the first boarder to protect himself."
"I'm willing to serve you!"
