The expressions of the officials present changed slightly.

There is only one Taishi Ci, but there are thousands of ordinary people. The officials here are just local officials in Hanoi County. The words of the court will inevitably make them a little shaken.

"Hahaha." Taishici laughed loudly. The officials looked up at Taishici for no reason.

Taishici restrained his laughter and said, "The Grand Sima has long been willing to destroy the Han Dynasty. Now all the princes in the world have betrayed the court and used the emperor to command the princes. The Han emperor has become a burden. The Grand Sima replaced the Han Dynasty and founded the Liang Kingdom. I think it is probably true."

"The Grand Sima will give up the land and give us us? I'm the first to believe that Taishici will not believe it."

Speaking of this, Taishici's face was full of spirit, he looked around at the officials and said, "Da Sima pacified the Western princes, has he ever given up an inch of land? Han Sui fled to Wuwei, and the Sima pursued the enemy and killed Han Sui. Liu Yan went to Nanzhong, and the Sima led his troops to Ping Nanzhong."

"And the Grand Sima is eager to seek talent. Let's not talk about Taishi Ci for the time being. General Xu and Grand Sima are brothers, Chen Gong is the Grand Sima's [Prime Minister], and Wu Kuang is the old minister of Grand Sima. How could the Grand Sima abandon us? I think this is probably the Grand Sima's plan. It is to paralyze Yuan Shao."

"You don't have to think too much, just guard the city with me. Since the Grand Sima has founded the country and the world is pacified. For our contribution to defending Hanoi County, Grand Sima will definitely be rewarded."

Taishici has prestige, is extremely brave, is cheerful and has a loud voice. With a speech, the officials present swept away the haze in their hearts and cheered up again.

"The general is right. With the character of the Grand Sima, how could he abandon the two counties, several generals and ministers, and 60,000 to 70,000 elite soldiers?"

"Yes, it must be the plan that Grand Sima confuses Yuan Shao."

There is no need to rescue the generals too much, Taishi Ci alone is enough.

His official position was General Zhenbei. He was the governor of the military affairs of Jizhou. He deserved his reputation.

.............

Daying in the north of the city.

When Yuan Shao learned that Shen Pei had returned, he led his advisers to come out to welcome Shen Pei.

"Zhengnan. What? Then Taishici is willing to surrender?" As soon as Shen Pei turned over and dismounted, Yuan Shao couldn't help asking.

The left and right soldiers stepped forward and led Shen Pei's horse down.

"Report to the lord. Taishi Ci would be mysterious and put a knife and axe array in the yard. The oil pan wanted to calm me..." Shen Pei took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and told Yuan Shao all about the entry into the city, boasting his abilities, and finally said: "Lord. Taishi Ci is also a loyal and righteous person. He is unwilling to betray Zhang Xiu. He wants to beg for three days and let him consider it."

Yuan Shao nodded and was about to speak.

"Mr. Shen. You were deceived by Taishi Ci. This is clearly Taishi Ci's delaying strategy." Xu You was jealous of Shen Pei and couldn't help but take the opportunity to say.

"Taishi Ci is loyal and righteous, not Lu Bu's repeated villain. How could he be willing to betray Zhang Xiu easily? If he agrees immediately, it would be a fraud. He said that he will be lenient for three days, but there is no fraud." Shen Pei was not polite and said with a sneer.

Xu You was about to refute. Yuan Shao glanced at Xu You and said, "What Zhengnan said makes sense. Taishi Ci was trapped in the lonely city, but he could lead his troops to defeat Yan Liang first and stabilize the city's footsteps. He was a loyal and righteous person. If he agreed easily, it would be a bad thing. He said that he was given a grace of three days, which I think is most likely true."

As he said that, Yuan Shao said to Shen Pei with a happy look on his face: "This time Zhengnan can ride alone into Huaicheng, and he said he will surrender Taishici, which is extremely courageous. If Taishici surrenders, it will be a great achievement. And I can also get a general, with more than 10,000 troops. It is like a tiger adding wings."

"The lord is over-reputable." Shen Pei looked modest, but there was clearly a flash of joy and pride in her eyes. She also looked up at Xu You and Feng Ji.

Xu You and Feng Ji's face looked slightly ugly, and they just turned their heads away.

Yuan Shao believed Taishi Ci's nonsense and ordered the troops to remain unmoved.

Three days are coming in a flash.

At noon, Yuan Shao sent Shen Pei again and rode alone to Huaicheng to meet Taishi Ci. This time the same was true. He met Taishi Ci very smoothly in the hall.

There was no one else in the hall. Taishici was wearing a white robe and sat down with a sword.

"General Taishi, I came as promised. I wonder how the general is thinking?" Shen Pei bowed and said with a look of certainty that Taishi Ci would surrender.

This is the situation now.

Zhang Xiu was in trouble in the south and abandoned Hanoi and Hedong counties. How could there be such a stupid person in the world who wanted to defend the lonely city for Zhang Xiu?

Taishici raised his head and looked at Shen Pei. He entrusted the blessing of this Shen Zhengshi to recuperate for three days and recovered a little vitality.

"Mr. Shen. You are probably disappointed. I don't plan to betray the Grand Sima. No, I, the Emperor of Daliang." Taishici said sincerely.

"What did you say?" The smile on Shen Pei's face froze. Did this guy not surrender?

Taishici deceived Shen Pei, and this thing was not very kind. However, Taishici was very kind. He did not take the opportunity to seize Shen Pei, but instead politely gave Shen Pei out.

He was in Hanoi County, adjacent to Jizhou, and the news was very smooth. He heard that Yuan Shao sat down with four counselors, Xu You, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, and Shen Pei each had their own mountains, fighting against each other, fighting for power and profit.

If there was no Shen Pei, Yuan Shao would not be lively.

Shen Pei left the city in a daze, and he did not realize what was going on until the sound of the city gate behind him was heavily closed.

He looked up at Yuan Shao's camp and sighed.

It's so damn that Taishici is so loyal and righteous, and does not surrender under such circumstances. I've really miscalculated it.

Shen Pei took a deep breath, raised the whip in her hand, drove her horse back to the camp, and met Yuan Shao, Xu You, Feng Ji and others waiting outside the tent. Shen Pei looked at Feng Ji, Xu You, and said to Yuan Shao with a bad look: "Lord, Tai Shi Ci is stubborn and unwilling to surrender."

"I just said this was a delaying strategy."

Xu You stabbed Shen Pei in the wound and stabbed him.

Yuan Shao's face was not very good-looking, and he became much colder towards Shen Pei.

"Taishici is really stubborn. Do you have any plans to get rid of Taishici quickly?" Yuan Shao glanced at Xu You and Feng Ji Dao.

"Lord. Now Zhang Xiu is doing something wrong in the south and abandons Taishi Ci and others. In fact, there is no need to attack Taishi Ci. When Taishi Ci's food is gone, he can win without fighting." Xu You had an idea in his heart and took the opportunity to say.

"Ziyuan said," Yuan Shao nodded, but showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and said, "It was just that Cao Cao came to see me before and asked me to quickly attack the city and kill Taishi Ci. It has been delayed for three days now. If Cao Cao learned about it, I would not be able to explain it."

"It's okay. The lord still set up a formation to attack the city. The thunder sounds loud and the raindrops can urinate. In addition, since Zhang Xiu abandoned Hedong and the two counties of Henei. Cao Cao attacked Anyi fiercely. We might as well wait for Cao Cao to capture Anyi City and come to see Taishi Ci with Xu Huang's head. At that time, Taishi Ci may not be able to surrender. This consumes Cao Cao's troops and retains our strength."

"When you get rid of Zhang Xiu, your biggest competitor is Cao Cao. Sun Jian from Jingzhou is not worth mentioning."

Xu You came to Yuan Shao and said femininely.

Not only Xu You, but in the eyes of many scholars and officials in the north, Sun Jian was just a rash man, not a powerful opponent.

After hearing Xu You's words, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up.

"Well. Ziyuan's words are reasonable." Yuan Shao patted Xu You on the shoulder, regained his favor to Xu You, and became more and more kind.

After Xu You was defeated, he no longer had this treatment. After suddenly enjoying this treatment, Xu You was both surprised and happy. But Shen Feng was secretly jealous.

................

In a relatively narrow side hall, Zhang Xiu knelt on the imperial throne in casual clothes, and in front of him was Xi Zhicai wearing official uniforms.

Liang Chenghan system, and there were no changes in the official uniforms of officials.

Zhang Xiu was a little excited and said, "The news is constantly coming and going. Cao Cao is attacking Xu Huang with all his strength, but he cannot conquer. Xu Huang is very beautiful. However, Yuan Shao attacked Pinglu, but Huaicheng slowed down the offensive. Yuan Shao is indeed not a big shot."

Xi Zhicai nodded. Compared to Cao Cao's wise and magical martial arts, Yuan Shao was really a little more ordinary.

"Your Majesty. When will we cross the river?" Xi Zhicai asked with his hands.

"Wait a little longer, wait for two months. One can wait for Yuan Shao to be more relaxed, the other can be waited for Chen Deng, Ma Chao's military training will be more elite, and the third can be made possible Xu Huang to consume Cao Cao's elite soldiers."

"Cao Cao attacked Anyi fiercely, and Xu Huang sat in a city, which was very beneficial."

Zhang Xiu's face was full of smiles and he said.

Xi Zhicai nodded. Indeed, this move was very good. Cao Cao, who was truly threatening, consumed his strength.

Yuan Shao slowed down the offensive, and Taishi Ci and Chen Gong also preserved their strength relatively. This laid a favorable foundation for the rapid attack on Bingzhou and Jizhou in the future.

And we can take the opportunity to train troops and increase the combat effectiveness of Chen Deng and Ma Chao's army.

A few birds with one stone.

The price was just to let Tian Feng stay in the prison cell for a few days, send 100,000 civilians in Guanzhong, and expand the Tongquetai.

Why not do it?

Those who know about this matter know, but they won’t speak. People like Ju Su, Xun You, and Fa Zheng have never said anything.

People who don’t know dare not do anything.

The situation became so strange. Hedong County was full of beacons, Henei County was thundering and raining, and Zhang Xiu, Henan County, expanded the Tongquetai.

In Luyang City, Sun Jian attacked Jia Xu fiercely.

The situations in all sides are very strange.

Time flies like a flash of time.

After February.

Zhang Xiu summoned Ma Chao and Chen Deng in Chongde Hall.

Zhang Xiu was wearing casual clothes and sitting on the imperial throne with a big golden sword, and asked condescendingly: "How are your soldiers and horses training?"

"Report to Your Majesty, you are not considered an elite soldier, but it is enough to fight." Chen Deng replied.

"Report to Your Majesty, the soldiers are already strong. I am willing to be the vanguard, cross the Yellow River, defeat Yuan Shao and Cao Cao." Ma Chao was much more powerful and raised his head and said.

"Okay. After you go back, prepare secretly. We will send troops in three days." Zhang Xiu showed a little smile on his face and nodded.

"No." The two of them responded with a loud bang and turned around.

Then, Zhang Xiu called Ma Dai, who was guarding outside the door, and ordered: "You go to the Shangshu Deck and tell Xi Lingjun. Three days later, I will personally lead the army. Please ask him for the affairs of the court."

"No." Ma Dai responded to the nostalgia and turned around.
