Han Fu was stunned by Cao Ang.
He blinked his eyes in confusion.
I have already given in to this point, but I still can't get a chance to survive?
Why did giving in only lead to faster death? What's the explanation for this?
Yuan Shao seemed to be a bold and generous man on weekdays, not a ruthless and bloodthirsty person.
Han Fu didn't quite understand, so he immediately put his doubts into words.
After Cao Ang glanced at Han Fu, he immediately lowered his voice and said in a dull tone.
"My nephew won't say much about killing them all and eradicating their roots. Whether Yuan Benchu will do this or not depends on your own judgment, uncle. This is more or less a matter of luck."
These words made Han Fu's heart skip a beat.
How appalling!
Whether you can survive depends on the mood of others, and even a little luck.
Who can bear this?
But I haven't waited for him to say anything.
I heard Cao Ang continue talking.
"You are still a state shepherd after all, and you are nominally the head of a state appointed by the imperial court. If Yuan Benchu wants to attack you, he will still have some scruples."
"But uncle, if you lose the position of state pastor, it will be like taking off the last layer of armor you are wearing, and then exposing the position of your heart to face Yuan Benchu's sword."
"You took the initiative to resign. After you abandon your official position, the army, talents and even your status in your hands will all disappear into thin air."
"Once these are gone, if Yuan Benchu wants to eradicate the root cause and kills you, it will be no different than crushing an ant to death!"
…
Han Fu's face looked a little ugly.
After Cao Ang's thorough and layer-by-layer analysis.
He found that he seemed to be surrounded on all sides.
Trapped in a desperate situation.
No matter what you do, it's a dead end no matter which direction you go.
Could it be that God wants to destroy me, Han Fu?
By some strange mistake, he accepted Dong Zhuo's appointment in the name of the imperial court and became the head of a state. He thought that the family would take this opportunity to shine and grow stronger.
But it turned out to be a life-threatening talisman?
Han Fu definitely didn't want to die.
In other words, no one died without any explanation.
Especially when a dangerous dilemma is right in front of you, you must find a way to resolve it as soon as possible.
It's just that no method seems to work at the moment, and it doesn't seem to be enough to make Yuan Shao put down his raised butcher knife.
This made Han Fu feel a little desperate.
After thinking for a while.
Just when Han Wenjie was feeling depressed and slumped, he suddenly noticed that Cao Ang, who was sitting on the side of the desk, still looked calm and composed, with the presence of the old god.
He was still drinking tea and drinking tea, minding his own business.
It seemed that Han Fu didn't feel any emotion at all because of the tragic fate he was about to face.
This made Han Fu stunned.
A strange light flashed in his eyes.
Then he became thoughtful.
After a while.
Han Fu calmed down his emotions a little and sat back down opposite Cao Ang.
First he gave it a thumbs up.
Then he asked tentatively with some hesitation: "My nephew came to tell me this matter today. It really alerted me and made me understand the situation I am currently in."
"It's really embarrassing to be vigilant but have no solution!"
"Even though I knew that Yuan Shao might kill me, I didn't know what to do at the moment. This seemed to be a dead end with no solution."
"I wonder if my dear nephew can teach me something?"
…
Han Fu pinned his hopes on Cao Ang.
He didn't know if Cao Ang could save him, but a dead horse was treated as a living horse.
Anyway, I don’t have any good ideas.
And as soon as he asked this question.
Cao Ang's slightly lowered face.
A faint smile appeared involuntarily, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, but quickly calmed down.
Waited for so long.
I finally waited until you, an old boy, asked for help.
What are you here for today?
What's more, let Han Fu act as a buffer zone between him and Yuan Shao, and protect Han Fu, making him a pawn with righteousness when the Cao family fights against Yuan Shao.
And under this premise.
Get some benefits by the way.
This is Cao Ang's purpose.
So Han Fu just asked.
After thinking for a long time, Cao Ang slowly explained his plan.
"Uncle alone will never be able to compete with Yuan Shao, but if you can have allies on this matter and win over people who stand with you to face Yuan Shao, the situation will be very different."
"If done properly and with a little bit of luck, not only can you save your life, you won't even have to give up your official position as Jizhou Mu, and you can continue to be in charge of a state."
"What do you think?"
Han Fu was a little stunned.
The pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Staring at Cao Ang closely like a needle.
After a while.
Han Fucai said in a deep voice: "Given the location of Jizhou, to the north are Youzhou Mu Liu Yu and Fenwu General Gongsun Zan. These two have always had political disagreements, and they may not dare to be Yuan Shao's rival."
"To the west is the desolate Bingzhou, with no one to rely on."
"To the south is Yanzhou where Ling and his son are located."
"Looking around, I'm afraid the only ones I can win over as allies are your father and your nephew. Could it be that you and your son are willing to lend a helping hand?"
…
In fact, Han Fu underestimated Gongsun Zan.
This General Gongsun is not a timid person. What is there that Yuan Shao dare not provoke?
Not only did he provoke Yuan Shao, he even took over the government with a long arm, sending people everywhere to attack cities and seize territory, and he would have a foot in every problem.
It is really not feasible to just find him as an ally. After all, Gongsun Zan is an ambitious person. He will only annex his allies and enjoy the gains alone.
So starting from this point is not wrong.
Of course it doesn't matter.
Facing Han Fu's surprise.
Cao Ang just nodded calmly and said rather calmly.
"If my uncle is willing to pay some price, then one day Yuan Benchu will use force to force you to hand over Jizhou, and he will even kill you."
"Then you can ask me for help. I will personally lead the troops into the territory of Jizhou. Not only will I try to save your life, I will even send troops to fight against him with you."
Han Fu was a little shocked!
He simply ignored the word price in his mind.
Focus all your attention on the second half of the sentence.
Cao Ang is actually willing to help!
This was something he never expected.
No, aren't you afraid of Yuan Shao?
…
Han Fu was a little confused.
Simply ask out the doubts in your mind.
After coughing twice and clearing his throat.
Han Fu leaned forward slightly and asked with confusion on his face.
"Yuan Benchu has strong soldiers and horses, sufficient money and food, and is famous at home. Isn't my nephew afraid of his military prowess?"
"I ask myself that my friendship with my nephew is still very shallow, and I don't have much contact with your father. My life and death actually have little to do with your father and son."
"In this case, it is already a great kindness for my nephew to come here to warn me today. Why should I go further and provoke Yuan Shao in order to save my life? I really can't figure it out."
Han Fu is actually quite smart.
I have come back to my senses here.
After all, being courteous for nothing is either a traitor or a thief.
He had no friendship with the Cao family at all, and Cao Cao and Cao Ang didn't look like good old men.
It was impossible that just because Han Fu would die at the hands of Yuan Benchu, he would rush over to remind him, or even send troops to help him at a critical moment in the future.
This is too good!
Who can blame Yuan Shao for having nothing to do when they are full?
Therefore, in Han Fu's opinion, Cao Ang probably came with other purposes and other ideas.
Don't make this other purpose clear.
Han Fu was actually a little uneasy.
Therefore, Han Fu seemed a little urgent.
…
After hearing such words, Cao Ang.
The smile on his face grew brighter.
He was not afraid of Han Fu's reaction, but he was afraid that this guy was a fool and would not be able to figure it out in the end, which would be a bit troublesome.
"Since my uncle has said so, I won't be secretive about it my nephew."
"Actually, in my opinion, our two families should be more like helping each other. To help you avoid death is to help our Cao family at the same time."
"This is a matter of mutual benefit."
Han Fu sat upright.
The expression on his face became more serious.
He spread his right hand towards Cao Ang and said, "What kind of combination can benefit both parties? I would like to hear the details!"
Cao Ang tapped lightly on the map with his finger at the southern part of Jizhou, which is the location of Yanzhou.
"Yanzhou is the foundation of my Cao family. The growth of our family depends entirely on this place!"
"Once Yuan Shao can safely annex the entire Jizhou, his next step should be to expand in the north and south directions."
"Yanzhou is adjacent to Jizhou and is likely to become Yuan Shao's next target. I must take precautions and prepare for this in advance."
"So helping my uncle to defend Jizhou is actually defending Yanzhou in disguise, and protecting our Cao family's own family property."
"So, uncle should be relieved, right?"
Cao Ang was very rare this time. He didn't tell any lies at all, but revealed some of his long-term concerns, which was not considered a lie.
The reason for telling the truth.
Naturally, it was to win Han Fu's trust.
At the same time, his plan in Jizhou was also a conspiracy. As long as Han Fu wanted to save his life, he had to ask him to take action and accept his favor.
So there is no difference between telling the truth and lying.
The fact was just as Cao Ang expected.
Han Fu was indeed relieved.
exactly.
His entire being has become enlightened!
Enlightenment is clear and clear.
…
Somewhat excitedly, he stood up again.
He walked around the entire camp several times.
There seemed to be countless thoughts in his mind, sparks of inspiration bursting out, stimulating him to think continuously.
Yes!
That’s the truth!
Watch and help each other, cooperation will benefit both sides!
From this point of view, Cao Ang really wanted to help him sincerely and save him from the fire and water.
And now the Cao family is not weak.
Although Cao Cao currently holds the position of governor of a county.
But it can be said that they have strong soldiers and horses, sufficient money and food, and the combined efforts of father and son are far more powerful than ordinary princes. They are definitely a force that cannot be underestimated.
It is definitely not enough to face Yuan Shao alone.
But isn’t there myself?
When the time comes, we will find a way to win over Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, and persuade Fenwu General Gongsun Zan. Even if it is just a name, if these parties join forces, Yuan Shao will not be able to move him at all!
There is a road in front of the mountain, with dark willows and bright flowers!
Trapped in a desperate situation, trapped in endless darkness, Han Fu seemed to have found his own light in an instant. What an excitement!
Just after being excited for a while.
Han Fu quickly calmed down and changed the topic back to the previous topic.
"Zixiu, you said before that I need to pay a certain price. What is the price?"
…
Cao Ang smiled.
Showing his snow-white teeth.
The two somewhat sharp tiger teeth on the left and right looked like cold-blooded predators, full of ferocity.
But his tone was very gentle.
"It's a price, but it's actually just a convenience. I need my uncle to appoint someone under me as the prefect of Wei County at a critical moment."
"I must have such an upright name so that I can reach out from Yanzhou to Jizhou without encountering strong resistance from all parties."
"At the same time, I also need Wei County as a place for me to station troops and food on the front line. Once I really have to meet Yuan Shao in battle, everyone will be completely torn apart."
"Then when the war begins, it is very necessary to have a stable territory!"
That's right!
In addition to instigating Han Fu to fight against Yuan Shao, Cao Ang's other purpose was to capture Wei County!
Compared with the previous purpose, it is a grand strategy at the overall planning level.
The benefits of this purpose are visible to the naked eye.
As long as Wei County is obtained legitimately, he can reach into Jizhou and intervene in Jizhou's affairs.
At the same time, one county can be used as a springboard.
If there is an opportunity in the future, it is not impossible to use this as a foundation to stir up trouble in Jizhou.
He even competed with Yuan Shao for territory.
There is nothing wrong with that.
…
When Han Fu heard that the so-called price was just such a trivial matter, he waved his hand happily and said that there was no problem at all.
He can hardly save his life now.
The entire Jizhou almost no longer belongs to him.
Abandon a Wei County.
What big deal is that?
In Han Fu's view, as Cao Ang said, this is not a price, but a convenience.
"As my nephew said, if Yuan Shao really takes action against me in the future and demands the entire Jizhou, I will immediately go to the table and ask your general, the prefect of Wei County, to invite you to Jizhou to participate in affairs."
Say it.
Han Fu raised the tea bowl on the table.
He raised his hand to signal to Cao Ang.
"Today I will drink tea instead of wine. You and I have made a covenant like this, and I hope that in times of crisis in the future, my good nephew can save my life no matter what!"
After the two touched each other.
They both drank the tea in one gulp.
From then on the covenant was formed.
And Cao Ang's goal was achieved.
It’s a comprehensive harvest.
So he was in a pretty happy mood.
…
Han Fu took a swig of tea.
I felt quite emotional in my heart.
He looked at the handsome Feng Shen in front of him, who was known as an outstanding young man within the coalition forces.
I can't help but feel mixed emotions.
If not for the arrival of Cao Ang.
He is probably still living in confusion, not knowing that the knife has been placed on his neck. When the day of death comes, he will die without knowing how.
And Cao Ang not only solved his confusion.
It even brought him hope!
Hope to live!
Therefore, Han Fu can be said to be full of gratitude towards this young man.
Although Cao Ang also made it clear that he was willing to help for the sake of the Cao family's own interests.
But some things don't work that way.
Cao Zixiu could sit back and watch Yuan Shao annex Jizhou, and then join forces with Liu Dai of Yanzhou, Kong Min of Yuzhou, and even Yuan Shu of Nanyang to fight against Yuan Shao.
Unlike himself, he only has this one path to choose from.
Besides, the Cao family is powerful. Even if Yuan Shao really waits until Yuan Shao annexes Jizhou and goes south, it is still unclear what the Cao family will be like at that time.
Therefore what Cao Ang did today.
This is already considered a favor.
Han Fu is not a villain.
So after sighing for a long time.
He still stood up, then bowed his hands to Cao Ang.
"Zixiu has done me a great favor today, and I will never forget it. If I can save my life, I will do whatever I can to you if you need me in the future!"
It is said to be sincere and sincere.
"Uncle, please get up quickly, no need to be polite!"
Cao Ang helped Han Fu up.
While he couldn't help but laugh.
Sun Jian, Liu Bei, and Yuan Shu owe me a lot. Even Yuan Shao himself owes me a lot.
This time there is another Han Fu.
So many people at my mercy.
If this continues.
I'm afraid that half of the heroes in the world in the late Eastern Han Dynasty will be at my mercy.
The other half consists of my own people, dead enemies, and my adopted son.
What else is there to fight for?
Isn’t the world at your fingertips? ! !
Tsk!
At the end of the Han Dynasty, they fought for hegemony and competed all over the world.
Sometimes when I think about it, it doesn’t seem that difficult.
