Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse and had to swim all the way to Gao Fei's camp. From a distance, he saw that Gao Fei's camp was about one foot above the ground, and he said angrily: "This bastard, you are so shameless."
It got to the point where he raised the terrain of the camp without telling me."
Chen Gong followed closely behind Lu Bu and said loudly: "My lord, Gao Fei is the most insidious and cunning person. He will definitely become our army's formidable enemy in the Central Plains in the future. I think it is better to sneak attack behind Gao Fei and rely on me."
The army’s tens of thousands of cavalry can definitely deal a fatal blow to Gao Fei.”
Wen Chou said: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Gao Fei and our army are still forming an alliance. Before Ye City was captured, he betrayed his promise. I'm afraid he will be ridiculed by the people in the world. I think it is better to capture Ye City first."
, after occupying half of Jizhou, cultivate for a period of time, recruit troops and then wait and see what happens."
"What do you know? For the great cause of my lord, if you don't take advantage of the opportunity to attack Gao Fei now, it will be difficult to inflict heavy damage on him in the future. Although Gao Fei has many troops, half of them are from the Zhao army. You are the general of the Zhao army.
, as long as we defeat Gao Fei’s main force
, those surrendering troops will definitely surrender as soon as you open your mouth. If it is delayed, I am afraid that they will be attacked by Gao Fei in the future, and it will be too late to regret it." Chen Gong was furious, watching Wen Chou cover his face.
He cursed a lot.
Wen Chou was no longer what he used to be. After all, he was a reduced general, and Chen Gong's official position was above him. In addition, Lu Bu had great trust in Chen Gong, so he stopped saying anything for fear of offending Lu Bu.
When Lu Bu saw Wen Chou was silent, he turned to Chen Gong and said, "Well, what the military advisor said is true, but Wen Chou's words are not unreasonable. Don't argue. I have made my own decision. Just obey my orders in everything."
When Chen Gong saw that Lu Bu didn't say yes or no, he understood in his mind. He just sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, and thought to himself: "If you listen to me in everything,
If we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, our army will not suffer any losses. We can just wait for Gao Fei to deliver the city. Once he receives the city,
He can counterattack, capture Gao Fei and kill him in one battle. What a pity... After the Yuan family is eliminated, Hebei will have a situation where two heroes work together, and there will inevitably be one between him and Gao Fei.
This is a fierce battle, and I must plan everything for my lord in advance. If I don’t kill Gao Fei, he will definitely become a future trouble for our army."
"Lord, Gao Fei and Wen Wu have arrived at the village gate!" Wen Chou pointed forward and said to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu said "Yeah" but said nothing.
Not long after, Lu Bu, Chen Gong, and Wen Chou galloped to the Yan army camp, got off their horses, and saw Gao Fei coming out with many civil and military personnel to greet him. Lu Bu politely held his hands and said, "I haven't seen you for two days. Marquis Yan, please come and be safe."
?”
Gao Fei chuckled and said: "Everything is fine, please come in, Marquis of Jin!"
After a while of greetings, Gao Fei glanced at Wen Chou standing behind Lu Bu, and sighed: "Isn't this Wen Chou, the number one general of the Zhao army? It's been a long time since we last met."
Wen Chou had no expression on his face, but he politely held up his hands and said, "I have surrendered to the Marquis of Jin and am no longer a member of the Zhao army. Wen Chou, the tiger-winged general of the Jin army, pays homage to the Marquis of Yan."
When Gao Fei heard Wen Chou's general name, he smiled and said: "General Tiger Wings... The Marquis of Jin got Wen Chou, which is really more powerful than a tiger. This General Tiger Wings is very appropriate!"
Lu Bu smiled and said, "The Marquis of Yan has given me the reward."
The group of people walked away as they talked, and unknowingly entered the big tent, where the guests and hosts were seated.
When Gao Fei saw everyone sitting down, he cupped his hands and said, "Is there anything important, Marquis of Jin?"
Lu Bu nodded and said, "Let me get straight to the point. I came here this time to discuss with the Marquis of Yan how to attack Ye City."
"Oh, isn't it already decided to attack Yecheng? The Marquis of Jin will attack the west gate, and our army will attack the other three gates..."
"Haha, now I want to change it. Our army's reinforcements have arrived, bringing a lot of siege equipment, and the strength of the troops has also increased a lot. After the Ye city is captured, it will belong to our army, so that Yanhou can lose his troops and generals in the attack.
, I feel a little guilty, so
, I would like to ask Marquis Yan to attack only the north gate, and leave the other three gates to our army to attack. After the city is broken, according to the original agreement between Marquis Yan and I, the grain, grass, gold and silver in the city will be divided in half as a reward to Marquis Yan.
Gift. Marquis Yan, do you think this is okay?"
Gao Fei glanced sideways at Chen Gong and saw that Chen Gong's face was gloomy and Lu Bu was speaking so smoothly, so he thought to himself: "I'm afraid this is Chen Gong's plan. Once they attack Ye City, they will occupy it."
How much of the granary and treasury will be divided when the time comes is not up to them?"
"Hahaha, if that's the case, then I'd rather be respectful than obey your orders. Isn't this half too little? Our Yan army has been going south all the way. It's been a lot of trouble for the past month. The soldiers are exhausted, and it's difficult to transport food and grass. In addition,
Many people died in the battle. In order to compensate the families of these fallen soldiers, it was a large sum of money.
What's more, after Yecheng was captured, not only did I not occupy it, but I also gave it to the Marquis of Jin. In addition, I also gave half of Jizhou to the Marquis of Jin. No matter what, I will lose money.
Don't you think it's a bit too stingy for the Marquis of Jin to do this business?" After thinking about it, Gao Fei said tit for tat.
Lu Bu was at a loss for words and hesitated for a moment. He glanced sideways at Chen Gong, but was speechless.
Chen Gong stood up in a hurry, cupped his hands and said: "Marquis Yan, if our army hadn't sent troops, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Marquis Yan to capture Ye City with his own strength, right? Even if Marquis Yan could capture Ye City, if my lord
Not invited to send troops
, and instead attacked Yanhou's empty Youzhou, the loss would probably be greater than that of Jizhou, right? Using half of Jizhou in exchange for Yanhou's entire Youzhou, my lord is already a large amount, how can Yanhou say
Is it stingy?"
Jia Xu suddenly stepped forward, sneered, and said calmly: "I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case, right? Our army had already taken precautions before leaving Youzhou, and secretly deployed 100,000 Wuhuan in the Daijun, Shanggu, and Zhuojun areas.
Tu Qi, this is something you don’t know. If you attack rashly, I’m afraid your entire army will be annihilated. My lord feels that he is a brother to the Marquis of Jin and has a deep brotherly love. He doesn’t want to see the two families fighting, so he strongly invited
Please invite the Marquis of Jin to attack Jizhou, and generously give half of Jizhou to the Marquis of Jin. The brotherhood is deep and the interests are shared. However, the brothers are still clear about settling accounts. In the past month, our army has spent a lot of money attacking Jizhou.
Our manpower, material and financial resources, in order to fight this war, we have already collected taxes from Youzhou for three years in advance. If we can't get corresponding returns from Yecheng, won't our war be in vain?"
Chen Gongdao: "That's why my lord understands your difficulties and allows you to only attack the north gate. He also gives you half of the food and treasures. Can this be called a vain attack?"
Jia Xu said: "Even if the entire Ye City's grain, grass, gold and silver treasures were added together, it would not be able to replace the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in our army. What's more, there is not much grain, grass, gold and silver treasure in Ye City. Even if they were all given to our army,
It cannot make up for the financial gap of our army. In the next two years, I am afraid that our army will live in poverty for a long time, and the feeling of not having enough to eat will not be pleasant."
Chen Gong said with a smile: "The matter has come to this. If you are willing to attack Yecheng, you can only attack the north gate. If you are not willing, please evacuate this place and let our army take over it. After Yecheng is captured, our army will naturally
Share half of the food and grass, gold and silver treasures and give them to your army..."
"Gongtai!" Lu Bu was shocked when he heard this. He had already known all the conditions in Ye City, including grain, grass, gold and silver treasures. Wen Chou told him, and as Jia Xu said, Ye City
There really wasn't much savings in the house, so Yuan Shao spent a lot of money building the Zhao Palace.
Chen Gong was interrupted by Lu Bu's cry and asked, "Why did the lord call me?"
Lu Bu said: "Sit down! This matter is decided by me."
Chen Gong was taken aback and hurriedly raised his hands and said: "My lord, please do not hesitate to..."
"Sit!" Lu Bu turned his head, staring directly at Chen Gong with a pair of fierce eyes, and shot out Senhan.
Chen Gong was suppressed by Lu Bu's intimidating momentum. He sat down and stopped talking, but secretly thought in his heart: "My lord, my lord, what's wrong with you? Why don't you even listen to my words?"
"
Lu Bu stood up, cupped his hands towards Gao Fei and said: "Marquis Yan, it's decided that our army will only attack the west gate, and leave the other three gates to your army to attack. After capturing Ye City, all the food, grass and money in the city will be returned to you."
Yan Jun, you just need to hand over Yecheng to me."
Gao Fei said: "The Marquis of Jin is quick to speak quickly, and I won't say anything else. It's settled that we will start attacking the city from the four gates at noon tomorrow."
Lu Bu said: "Well, Chen Gong and Wen Chou, let's go back to the camp and arrange the siege."
Chen Gong and Wen Chou followed Lu Bu. After bidding farewell to Gao Fei, they left the Yan army camp together.
"Lord, why? Why did you agree to Gao Fei's greedy request?" Chen Gong asked puzzledly.
Lu Bu said: "What I want is Yecheng, and the real wealth cannot be seen. What can be seen is only grain and grass and the gold and silver treasures in the treasury. Forget all these things for Gao Fei."
"Invisible?" Chen Gong asked suspiciously.
Wen Chou explained: "Military advisor, few people know about this. When Yuan Shao built the Zhao Palace, he buried a large amount of gold, silver and jewels under the palace, which was more than ten times the wealth currently in Ye City's treasury.
No one else knows except Yuan Shao, Yan Liang, Shen Pei and me. Yuan Shao, Yan Liang, Shen Pei are all dead, so I am the only one who knows about this wealth."
Chen Gong glanced at Wen Chou. Judging from what he had learned about Wen Chou in the past few days, he came to a conclusion and then asked Wen Chou: "Is your purpose of promoting Yuan Xi to the throne for the purpose of Prince Zhao's palace?"
Treasure buried underground?”
Wen Chou smiled and did not answer, but said to Lu Bu: "My lord, this is my loyalty to my lord, Wen Chou!"
Lu Bu said: "Haha, go back to camp and start attacking the city tomorrow. We must get the treasure as soon as possible and start recruiting troops to conquer the Central Plains."
