Cheng Yu set out and walked for a long time, finally arriving near Yuan Tan's camp.
Going to the enemy camp was definitely dangerous, but Cheng Yu was not afraid and went there calmly and unhurriedly. However, as soon as they appeared, they were discovered by Yuan Tan's scouts.
The scouts brought out hundreds of people and surrounded them.
"Cheng Yu, a counselor under Prime Minister Cao, asked to see the eldest son. Our prime minister has a method that can help the eldest son break the situation and seize power. Please help us go back and spread the word!" Cheng Yu said calmly.
The soldiers hesitated and reported the matter.
They were just ordinary soldiers and could not help Yuan Tan decide whether to see him or not. He had to let Yuan Tan decide for himself.
After waiting for a while, the soldiers surrounding Cheng Yu separated and made way for them.
An officer came over and said, "Mr. Cheng, our young master is waiting in the military camp. Please come over here."
Cheng Yu strolled leisurely and walked calmly to the military camp until he arrived at Yuan Tan's military camp. He saw Yuan Tan sitting behind the tent, staring at him. Guo Tu and Xin Ping, Sit on both sides.
Guo and Tu had been waiting for Cao Cao's next plan, but they never thought that Cao Cao would send someone to assign tasks.
Of course, Cheng Yu knew that the two of them were his own. With this guarantee, he could be more confident that nothing would happen and leaving alive was not a problem. However, out of respect for Erwuzi, he did not make much eye contact with them. .
The two of them just looked at each other indifferently and continued to sit.
"I've met the eldest son!"
Cheng Yu bowed his head.
"You said you have a way to help me break the situation and take revenge, or even seize power?"
Yuan Tan originally wanted to kill Cheng Yu, but thinking that he could break the situation and seize power and take revenge, he couldn't resist the temptation, and finally agreed to meet Cheng Yu to see how courageous this person who dared to come to see him was.
Cheng Yu nodded and said: "Exactly! The method is also very simple. We, the Prime Minister, want to cooperate with the Young Master to deal with Yuan Shang."
When Yuan Tan heard this, he sneered: "Cooperating with Cao Cao? You think you are humorous, right? Cao Cao and I have a mortal hatred."
Cheng Yu laughed, looked directly at Yuan Tan, and explained: "Excuse me, eldest son, what hatred does Prime Minister Cao have against you? Or should I say, what hatred does he have against the general? In fact, the general and Prime Minister Cao were playmates who grew up together. , the relationship is very good, they have no hatred and are not enemies. If it weren't for that treacherous villain Liu Bei who started the instigation in Yecheng, the Yuan family and the Cao family would not be able to fight. "
The general is Yuan Shao.
Yuan Tan's mind was relatively simple. After listening to Cheng Yu's words, he actually felt that there was some truth in it. He wanted to say something to refute, but he didn't know from which angle to refute.
He fell silent.
Cheng Yu added: "The death of the general has nothing to do with Prime Minister Cao, does it?"
Indeed.
Yuan Shao died of illness and had no direct relationship with Cao Cao. It can only be said indirectly that Yuan Shao was too short-tempered.
"Put the grudges aside for now, and let's take a look at the eldest son's situation."
"The Qingzhou elite you brought are definitely no match for the three-party coalition of Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and Gao Gan. They defeated you in the first battle."
"The eldest son wants Yuan Shang to die. On the contrary, Yuan Tan is definitely eager to kill the eldest son. Once the eldest son is defeated, he will definitely die. The eldest son is willing to be killed by Yuan Shang?"
Cheng Yu analyzed Yuan Tan's situation and deceived Yuan Tan.
Guo Tu and Xin Ping just listened and said nothing, letting Cheng Yu perform on his own.
Yuan Shang chuckled and said: "Do you think I will lose to Yuan Shang? Is this possible?"
Cheng Yu said lightly: "Why is this not possible? According to your current position, as long as Yuan Shang sends a group of soldiers to cut off your way to the north and then attacks from the front, you will all be trapped here and die. By slaughter.”
Before arriving, Cheng Yu did enough homework.
Completely understand the situation of Yuan Tan's current garrison.
Hearing this, Yuan Tan thought about the location of his military camp and the nearby terrain. He was a bit arrogant, but he didn't know anything. He could still fight and form formations. His expression changed at the last thought.
It seems, really so!
Fortunately, everything is fine now. Yuan Shang didn't see the problem and didn't attack.
Otherwise, as Cheng Yu said, none of them would be able to escape.
This is the strength of Cao Cao's counselors, who are stronger than his own. Neither Guo Tu nor Guo Tu can see this problem.
"Prime Minister Cao really wants to cooperate with the eldest son. When Prime Minister Cao conquers Ye City, he promised that he can be the shepherd of Jizhou, inherit the general, and inherit everything of the Yuan family. The eldest son only needs to publicly acknowledge Prime Minister Cao. "
Cheng Yu continued: "In order to help the eldest son resist, we will also send you a batch of new weapons. While you are fighting, Prime Minister Cao's army will attack Yecheng and coordinate with the eldest son. If everything goes well, he will kill Yuan Shang. Isn’t it possible to do it with hands?”
Joining forces with Cao Cao is the best way to kill Yuan Shang.
Yuan Tan does not deny this.
In addition, Cao Cao said to give them new weapons, which made Yuan Tan wonder how much he wanted them.
He knew how powerful Cao Jun's weapons were.
Yuan Tan felt tempted by the conditions proposed by Cheng Yu. According to the joint plan, he could not only take revenge, but also take power and obtain the position of general. This was a good deal.
"Is Cao Cao really that good?"
Yuan Tan was thinking, not very trusting.
Cheng Yu finished what he should say and waited quietly for Yuan Tan's response.
However, Yuan Tan did not respond immediately, and his attitude became much more polite, saying: "Come, please take Mr. Cheng down to rest first!"
He had to discuss such an important matter with the counselors around him before he could determine whether it was feasible.
Cheng Yu was quickly taken down, and Yuan Tan immediately asked, "What do you two gentlemen think?"
Of course it's good!
They were thinking at the same time, but at this time they were pretending to be deep in thought.
"Eldest Young Master, I think you can agree."
Xin Ping spoke first.
Yuan Tan asked: "Can Cao Cao be trusted?"
In their perception, Cao Cao is a scheming person.
Whatever he wants to do and what kind of trick he uses, it's all possible.
Guo Tu said: "Cao Cao is very cunning, but he really has no way to face Yecheng. You know, Yecheng is reinforced by the old lord, and ordinary people can't break it. If he doesn't cooperate with the eldest son, even if he goes crazy Attacking the city may not necessarily break the city. I think Cao Cao must be thinking that instead of wasting time attacking the city here, it is better to cooperate with the eldest son and break it from the inside. Cao Cao is scheming, but his credibility is good, so trustworthy."
Yuan Tan listened and nodded in agreement.
Xin Ping echoed: "The two of us are more inclined to have the eldest son cooperate with Cao Cao for the time being. Otherwise, the third young master and the others will really not let the eldest son go. In addition, I also have a good solution to the eldest son's concerns."
"Sir, please speak!"
Yuan Tan asked in surprise.
In fact, he felt a little moved after hearing Cheng Yu's words. After all, he was about to reach a desperate situation and it would be difficult to resist without relying on external force.
