After Yuan Shao received Yuan Tan's letter, his whole face changed color, and his hands holding the bamboo slips couldn't help but twitch.
He assigned 8,000 cavalry to him, and also assigned him the most elite first-campers, euphorbiasmen, and chariots. However, he lost more than 80,000 in the first battle, and also gave him all the generals of the three armies, Wen Chou. Got in.
That's Wen Chou, the belief of hundreds of thousands of troops. If this spreads, the three armies will be frightened by it. What kind of battle are you fighting!
The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the angrier he became. His whole body was shaking like chaff, and he slammed the bamboo slips to the ground.
In the past few days, although the Guandu battlefield has not achieved impressive results, it can be said that Cao Cao was beaten to the point of cowering away and not daring to move every day.
Xu You also designed to use grain trucks as bait to lure Cao's army to rob the grain, and staged an ambush, earning him three to four thousand men. In addition, he also ambushed Cao's army's logistics route along the way, and succeeded several times.
Although it seems that all this has not directly changed the situation of the war, it has been beneficial anyway. Just wait until the morale is almost restored, and then attack Cao Ying in one go.
As a result, such bleak news came from the Eastern Front battlefield, which made him feel distressed.
"Father, Mr. Tian is knowledgeable and resourceful, and he has always been prudent in his work. He doesn't seem to be such a success-loving person!
What's more, although Mr. Tian was too upright when he was under his father's command, his father always managed things well. Why he was so confused when he arrived in Qingzhou is puzzling. "
This sounds like he expresses his sorrow for Tian Feng, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that he is drawing the flames of war to Yuan Tan.
For Yuan Shang, it doesn't matter whether this matter is Tian Feng's fault or not. What matters is that Yuan Tan has an unshirkable responsibility as the coach, so don't think about it.
"Third Young Master, you don't know something. As the saying goes, one moment is another moment. When he was in Youzhou, Tian Feng proposed a plan to rest for a few years before starting a war. Naturally, such short-sightedness would not be adopted by the lord. At that time, the lord wanted to kill him. In prison, I just wanted to spare him for the time being because of my old honors.
But after Tian Feng arrived in Qingzhou, he was eager to prove his talents and became arrogant. This is normal. On the surface, it seems that he is eager to make contributions and return to the center, but in fact he wants to prove to the world that the master has insulted his talents. I have a heart that can be punished. Please, my lord, chop off the head of this wolf dog to correct the military law! "
As soon as Guo Tu takes action, he will know if there is any.
He almost didn't need any hesitation in dealing with Tian Feng. He was the biggest concern here.
In the battle to seize the throne, he was a supporter of Yuan Tan, and he was driven by the protector to pass the blame to Tian Feng; in the camp queue, he was a counselor of the Yingchuan faction and a Henan counselor. Do you still need to be polite to the people of Hebei?
"My lord, what Guo Tu said about this matter is probably true. I heard that Tian Feng made wild claims several times on the way to Qingzhou, claiming that the mediocre master would not listen to him and would be defeated sooner or later. In order to prove his ability, he took the risk of using troops. It is completely justified. possible."
Xu You, who did not belong to any camp in the battle for the inheritance, also spoke up. He was from Nanyang and Henan, and it was his duty to fight against the people from Hebei.
If it weren't for Yuan Shang speaking first and not daring to openly contradict the master he supported, Pang Ji, who was also a counselor in Nanyang, would have made matters worse.
"I'm afraid this matter may not be as simple as Guo Tu said. Tian Feng has been with the lord for many years. The lord knows his character best. He doesn't seem to be a person who is greedy for success. If the lord is suspicious, Tian Feng may be dismissed first. We will make a decision only after the follow-up investigation becomes clear.”
Jushu from Hebei came out, and he spoke much more cleverly. He didn't say who was responsible for it. He only said that he should capture Tian Feng first and then understand it clearly.
This should have been a more satisfactory way to deal with it, but Guo Tu didn't agree and snorted coldly, "Jushou! It was you who urged the lord to let Tian Feng go. If not, Tian Feng would be in prison at this time, so naturally he wouldn't There will be a great defeat in Qingzhou, and the life and death of General Wen Chou will not be unknown.
You are also responsible for this! "
If there is a rank in the matter of internal fighting, Guo Tu must be platinum.
He knew very well when to say what to say, and as soon as these words came out, even Ju Sue was thrown into trouble.
"Nonsense! Guo Tu's words are really unwarranted and greedy, and the sycophant is talking nonsense!"
"Guo Tu is just telling the truth. The judge and matchmaker should not make unintentional remarks and slander good people!"
"A good man? Tian Feng has many military exploits. Guo Tu rushes to kill him before the situation is clear. He is really a complete sycophant!"
"Although I am a military commander, I also know that Mr. Tian is loyal to the lord. It is absolutely impossible to be like what Guo Tu said."
For a time, the Chinese army tent was very lively. People from Henan and people from Hebei were at loggerheads. Even the military generals participated. After all, Zhang He and Gao Lan were also from Hebei, so they naturally stood up to help Tian Feng.
However, they forgot one thing. Yuan Shao himself was from Yuzhou. If he had to talk about favoritism, it would be towards Guo Tu and others from Henan.
As usual, the quarrel ended with Yuan Shao slapping Shuai in anger.
"Tian Feng was so happy that he destroyed my 80,000-strong army in one night. If we just forget about it, how can we convince everyone?"
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and said in a low but intimidating voice, "Take my sword and send it to Qingzhou, and let Tian Feng commit suicide."
When Ju Shou wanted to persuade him again, Yuan Shao had already stepped down and said coldly: "If you say anything more, you will be punished with Tian Feng!"
After the punishment soldier took off Yuan Shao's sword with both hands and turned around to leave the military tent, Yuan Shao continued: "The slaves of the three surnames actually killed my 80,000 troops and General Wen Chou. What should you do next? Is there any good strategy?"
On the Eastern Front, 100,000 men were lost in the two battles, but the total strength of the Eastern and Western Fronts was still 500,000. Yuan Shao naturally did not panic. This question is just to change the argument just now. By the way, I also want to listen to everyone. Guy's opinion.
Perhaps because Tian Feng's death was imminent, Yuan Shao was somewhat silent when he asked, and the Hebei counselors all chose to remain silent.
But it doesn't matter. When the Hebei people are silent, it is often the time when the Henan people are most active. Guo Tu stood up and said, "My lord, now that we have cut off Cao's army's logistics twice, why not take this opportunity to divide the army into ten groups? The Japanese took turns to attack Cao Jun's camp.
This move would not only give full play to the superiority of troops, but also completely block Cao's army's logistics. Over time, even if Cao Cao could hold the camp, Xuchang's logistics would not be able to enter Guandu. "
"My lord, Cao Cao's camp in Guandu is well-defended. A strong attack will only cause too many casualties. Besides, Cao Cao has been consolidating his internal defenses these days and does not dare to attack. I still suggest that my lord divide his troops into two groups and leave 300,000 people here. Confront each other, select tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and launch a surprise attack on Xuchang. This way Cao's thieves will surely perish!"
The last proposal to divide the troops was rejected by Yuan Shao. This time Xu You still insisted on his opinion. The difference was that he made adjustments in the strength of the troops.
He thought about it again and again. In fact, only tens of thousands of people would be enough to penetrate the city of Xuchang, and such a proposal should be easier for Yuan Shao to accept.
"My lord, according to the eldest son's battle report, although 80,000 troops were lost on the Eastern Front this time, there are still 100,000 troops, and the cavalry is not damaged at all. On the other hand, Lu Bu, after this battle, his army is in danger and panic.
I suggest that Zhang He lead 50,000 elite troops down the river to Qingzhou and attack Lu Bu on two fronts with the eldest son. If it is difficult to take care of the head and tail, Lu Bu will be defeated. As long as Lu Bu is defeated, Cao Cao will be defeated without attacking! "Jushou thought about it and found that this was the only way to save Tian Feng.
Once Zhang He passes, Tian Feng's life can be temporarily saved, and when Lu Bu is defeated, there will be room for change.
Of course, considering the overall situation, with this approach, he felt that the chance of victory was indeed very high.
Yuan Shao clenched his chin, and after thinking for a moment, he still felt that Guo Tu's proposal was the best for him, and said: "No, I want to deal with Cao Cao here in Guandu!
Junyi (jùn yì), Jinyong! "
"The general is here!" Zhang He and Gao Lan came out one after another.
"I order you two to divide the front army into ten divisions, each with fifteen thousand troops. Starting tomorrow, they will continuously attack Cao's camp. If anyone breaks the camp, all troops will be heavily rewarded!"
"As you command!"
Guo Tu lowered his head, his posture was humble, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curved. The Lord is indeed the wise Lord of the world, and he can always do what is good.
As for Yuan Shao's willingness to obey his orders and kill Tian Feng and march according to his own military strategy, Guo Tu felt that Yuan Shao was wise and his future was bright.
That night, Zhang He and Gao Lan were still making preparations in the camp, but Yuan Shao did not go to the soldiers to encourage them as usual.
He was hiding alone in the Chinese military tent, drinking bitterly.
He first poured a cup, laid it on the ground, and murmured: "Wen Chou, if Lu Bu kills you, I will take his head to avenge you. But now that Cao's army is at the end of its war effort, I cannot miss this opportunity in vain. Please wait a moment." That is, let the slaves of the three surnames live a few more days."
Then he had a drink himself, and it was as if he and Wen Chou were drinking in yin and yang.
He drank the second glass of wine on the ground again, shook his head with a wry smile, "Yuan Hao, I know that 80% of this matter has nothing to do with you, but I have no choice but to do it. But if I don't push you out, Tan'er will only I am afraid that I will no longer be able to gain a foothold in the military.”
He knew very well how high Wen Chou's prestige was in the military camp. Even if he made a mistake with his troops, he still had to have an explanation for the three armies. What's more, a young man with poor moral character like Yuan Tan, in the eyes of many people After all, he was influenced by his ancestors more than his true talents.
When it comes to who is more suitable to be the heir apparent, Yuan Shang or Yuan Tan, Yuan Shao himself really couldn't make up his mind for a while, but no matter who is the heir apparent, he is his son after all. People are selfish, how can they ignore them? .
For Yuan Tan, I can only sacrifice Tian Feng.
"Fengxian, this chariot is pretty good. Can you order three hundred of them for me?"
"This is the heavy crossbow that Yuan Shao used when he first entered the camp. I heard that this thing is extremely difficult to use properly. I will take two hundred pairs back to try it out."
"Hey, Fengxian, why are Chen Zhao and the others still centurions? They are all old brothers for many years. If you don't give them a captain in your current territory, you won't be afraid of chilling their hearts."
Zhang Yang was patrolling the military camp. He enjoyed watching this and that.
Lu Bu, who followed him, always responded to his requests, "Brother, just take it if you like."
In fact, among the brothers who came from Bingzhou, only Zhang Yang can be considered to be on the same level as Lu Bu. In terms of official position, he is the Grand Sima, General of Anguo, and Marquis of Jinyang. Coupled with his old habits, he has never called Lu Bu. Wen Hou.
Of course, Lu Bu didn't mind this at all.
Who is Zhang Yang? For his own sake, even the native emperors of Hanoi were ignored and went undercover. This was a life-threatening job, and the key to winning the final battle was precisely because he was in Yuan Tan's camp and had the opportunity to use the sky lantern as a reminder.
Although it was Lin Mo's plan, in terms of sacrifices and sacrifices, Zhang Yang was really fighting for his life against Lu Bu.
Therefore, even though he now owns the land of nine counties, he only treats Zhang Yang as his closest brother, regardless of his strength.
"I'm joking, these things will be more useful if you keep them with you." Zhang Yang laughed, as if he was happy after getting a satisfactory answer.
When he returned to the Zhongjun tent, Zhang Yang drank heavily and lazily stood up, "It's almost time to go back. It's been too long since I've been out."
"Uncle, after this incident, Cao Cao must know that you and your father-in-law have an inseparable relationship. If we have a gap with him in the future, we will definitely attack you first. Hanoi is in danger, so we should stay." Lin Mo was a little bit Said worriedly.
"Brother, why are you going back? Isn't it just a county? I govern the land of nine counties. I will give you whichever one you like. If you ask, even in Pengcheng County, I will let this kid move." Even Lu Bu knew this. , Zhang Yang's situation this time will definitely be much more dangerous than before.
The most important thing is that Hanoi's location is too awkward. It is to the west of Yanzhou and Xuzhou is to the east of Yanzhou, just separated by Cao Cao. If there is any trouble, Lu Bu can't save it even if he wants to.
"It's a joke. I wasn't afraid of Cao Cao when he was at the height of his power. Moreover, I was a governor appointed by the imperial court. After staying there for so many years, I have long been used to it. Suddenly I was asked to change places."
Zhang Yang curled his lips and shook his head, then sneered: "What's more, Cao Cao is now surrounded by Yuan Shao's 400,000 troops in Guandu. When the scouts came back in the morning, didn't they say that Yuan soldiers were storming Cao's camp? It's anyone's guess whether he can survive."
"Cao Cao will not lose to Yuan Shao." Lin Mo said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yang tilted his head and looked at Lin Mo, "What do Yunwen mean by this?"
"I already have a plan to defeat the enemy."
"What does it have to do with Cao Cao that you have a plan to defeat the enemy? You don't want to help him, do you?" Zhang Yang looked incredulous.
"It's impossible not to help."
Lin Mo shook his head helplessly, "Yuan Shao is so powerful that even if he loses a few battles, he will not be destroyed immediately. On the contrary, Cao Cao will be defeated. Once Yuan Shao breaks through, our army will not be able to resist at all. Therefore, I am not helping Cao Cao, I am just protecting myself." That’s all.”
The scouts who rushed back from Guandu not only brought back the information about Yuan Jun's fierce attack on Cao Ying, but also brought back the enemy situation that Lin Mo arranged for them to detect.
Moreover, it was the enemy that caused Yuan Shao's defeat.
If possible, Lin Mo certainly hopes that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao will be defeated in Guandu, and he will reap the benefits.
However, this idealized result is just a dream, it is impossible to appear in reality.
At present, Yuan Jun is storming Cao Cao's camp, and Cao Cao's casualties are definitely not small. In the end, even if he wins, it will be regarded as a narrow victory. This is already a very good result.
There is another level of consideration, which also concerns the Qingzhou front.
Even though Yuan Tan is now seriously injured, his troops are still crushing his own side. Thousands of cavalry are ready to attack. Among the 40,000 people, the real combat strength can only be regarded as 30,000. What if? Yuan Tan jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the consequences were disastrous.
On the Guandu front, if Cao Cao could defeat Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan would have to give up his plan to go south again. All this was helpless and the only feasible way.
As for the defeat of the Northern Army, with the current strength of both Cao and Lu, they simply cannot defeat the four northern states, and there is a high probability that they will enter a long period of rest.
For our own side, the chance to truly annex the Northern Kingdom will still depend on civil strife in the North before we can go north.
Lin Mo is quite confident about this, and he has always operated this way in the overall situation.
Everything seems to be under control.
The only thing was that Zhang Yang returned to Hanoi. He always felt that Zhang Yang would stay in Xuzhou after this incident. His return would definitely be regarded as a thorn in Cao Cao's side.
"Fengxian has always said that you are a genius. Today I learned a lesson. Even Cao Cao was tricked by you."
Although Lin Mo had already expressed the seriousness of the matter, Zhang Yang remained unmoved, "As for Hanoi, I must go back. After all these years, my roots are rooted there. I still have 20,000 people on my hands." , I am also more familiar with every plant and tree there than anyone else, and it’s not that easy for him, Cao Cao, to touch me."
Looking at this, Zhang Yang was determined to go back. Lu Bu sighed and looked at Lin Mo, "Yunwen, at that location in Hanoi, if Cao Cao attacks, it will be difficult for me to save him. Is there anything I can do?"
Lin Mo lowered his head and pondered, but Zhang Yang waved his hand carelessly, "What are you saying, do you really think I'm making fun of you? Okay, Yunwen, don't worry about me, just help your father-in-law. If you need my help with anything, just ask."
Lin Mo ignored Zhang Yang's teasing, walked to the table, took out a piece of silk cloth, wrote a paragraph, put it into a tips bag, and at the same time took out another tip bag, one with silk cloth, the other with Empty, he handed both of them to Zhang Yang.
"Excuse me, uncle, please go to Guandu yourself. The brocade bag with the silk cloth is to exchange for Yan Liang. The brocade bag without the silk cloth is to scare Cao Cao, at least so that he will not have any thoughts about Hanoi in the short term.
As long as we finally occupy the four northern states, my uncle can rest easy. "
Zhang Yang took the two tips and grinned, "Okay, okay, I won't make you worry. I just listen to you."
"By the way, uncle, I have something else to trouble my uncle this time."
"But it doesn't matter." Zhang Yang took a sip of wine and raised his forehead.
"I asked Zuo Rong to prepare 20,000 gold for my uncle to take back. I asked my uncle to use this to find someone for me."
"Looking for someone?" Zhang Yang was a little confused, and even Lu Bu couldn't help but look over. He couldn't find someone himself, and he had to trouble my brother.
"I can't explain it in a few words. Zuo Rong is already on his way here. He will make it clear to his uncle when the time comes, so I won't go into details."
Hearing this, Zhang Yang nodded and asked no more questions.
After a while, he looked at Lu Bu and said, "Fengxian, you have to explain something to me."
"Tell me what's going on."
"What do you think about Cao Xing, Song Xian and Cheng Lian? They have been with you for so many years, life and death, and they have worked hard without any merit. How come they have become grooms?"
They have been friends for many years. Zhang Yang felt a little bit picky and looked at Lin Mo with a frown, "I know it was your idea. If you want to punish them and sharpen their spirit, it's okay. That's about it. Take it, if you want the military to gain authority, you must use this method."
Most probably they complained to Zhang Yang in the past few days.
If it were anyone else, Lin Mo would not have bought it, but it was Zhang Yang who spoke. Lu Bu still had to give him some respect. As a junior, of course he couldn't be too arrogant.
In fact, Zhang Yang's status was higher than that of the Liao God, and his willingness to sacrifice for Lu Bu really impressed Lin Mo. He immediately stood up and bowed and said: "Uncle, tell me what you want me to do. , I just listen to you."
I was really worried that the two of them would fight over this matter. After hearing that Lin Mo was so sensible, Lu Bu felt relieved.
"They say you are a thorn in your side, but I think you are very sensible."
Zhang Yang laughed loudly, "Let them be reinstated soon. They should send out tasks and guard where they should. Of course, if you dare to make any mistakes again, tell me later and my uncle will beat them for you."
Ah this
Don’t all men in Bingzhou have a childlike innocence?
Lin Mo smiled and nodded, and Zhang Yang spoke. In fact, the old father-in-law had always had this intention, so he just let them go. However, if he wanted to send a mission, he would be exempted from it. He would give up a corner to guard, which would be a face-saving measure. .
"By the way, where's Ling'er? Why didn't I come with you? Are you happy?" Zhang Yang remembered that he hadn't seen Ling'er for several years and was a little regretful that he couldn't attend the wedding.
"She was toying with the red-sleeved trick in Pengcheng, saying that she would settle all the widows of the soldiers." Lu Bu was helpless.
"Red sleeve move? Flapping blindly." Zhang Yang thought it was a bit ridiculous, but just said a few more words to ask Lin Mo to work harder to spread the branches of the Lu family.
Okay, now I'm being treated as a door-to-door son-in-law again.
Zuo Rong arrived the next day, and the gold was pulled by horse-drawn carriages. He ordered a group of sergeants to escort Zhang Yang to Hanoi.
At this stage, he is not worried that Yanzhou will make things difficult for him. There are not many people coming and going. There are only a hundred or ten people, just to block the bandits. Secondly, during the alliance, Cao Cao must have assigned these people to take advantage of the way. Go down.
The only thing Lin Mo was a little worried about was that Yuan Shao in history did not attack Cao Cao with all his life as the scouts said. I hope he can hold on until Zhang Yang arrives in Guandu.
This is a kind of game that ends too early. Cao Cao's strength is too strong, which is not a good thing for himself.
As soon as Zhang Yang left, the old father-in-law began to think about exchanging the more than 10,000 Northern Army prisoners of war on hand for some grain and grass. Without Wen Chou, the price-performance ratio of the exchange was greatly reduced, but it should be no problem to exchange tens of thousands of stones for grain and grass. It would be better than every day What's the point of having to pay for food while you're waiting to eat?
"What's the use of tens of thousands of stones of food and grass? It would be better to wait until the battle in Guandu is over and return it directly to Yuan Tan. It can at least bring us closer relations."
Regarding Lin Mo's words, Lu Bu was a little confused, "What kind of relationship do I have with him? He wants me to die."
Lin Mogan laughed, "Now I want us to die, but later I will want to get close to us."
Lin Mo has carefully calculated this account. First of all, tens of thousands of grains and grains are of little use to such a big plate today; moreover, these are not elites, and their combat power is similar to that of the general army. As long as you have With food and grass to support them, such a group of people can be recruited at any time.
In this case, it's better to use them as a favor.
Of course, it can't be now, lest he thinks that he has given up on him and becomes unreasonably ambitious.
"What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?" Lu Bu saw that the original plan of exchanging prisoners of war for grain, money and horses turned into a plan that could only be exchanged for grain and grass. Up to now, not only had nothing been exchanged for it, , I have to put up thousands of stones of food and grass, how can I not feel uncomfortable.
"Master-in-law, didn't I say that Yuan Tan, a prisoner of our army, can be released, just because he still has value."
Lin Mo smiled calmly and said: "Master Yue Zhang, just wait and see. Sooner or later our army will take over the Northern Kingdom, and we will have to rely on Yuan Tan."
Is this boy Yuan Tan so capable? Lu Bu weighed it for a while and murmured: "Is it a good thing to please Yuan Tan and take over the Northern Kingdom? Then you might as well give it a try."
Although it sounds a bit fanciful, it's like inviting a wolf into the house. How could anyone be so stupid? But with his son-in-law so confident, this is probably a play.
Worth the wait.
When he received Yuan Shao's sword and reply, Yuan Tan felt mixed.
I am glad that I can survive this defeat and will not be suppressed; but at the same time, I am sad that the Northern Kingdom will lose one of its think tanks.
He has always respected Tian Feng.
He understood that although Yuan Shao was displeased with him about killing Tian Feng, it was more because of his distorted battle report.
In the final analysis, Tian Feng died in the hands of Yuan Tan.
In the Guangxian Council Hall, Yuan Tan looked at Yuan Shao's sword on the table. He couldn't recover for a long time, and he sat there from noon to dusk.
Finally, he stood up and came to Tian Feng's temporary residence holding Yuan Shao's sword in both hands.
After seeing Yuan Shao's sword and letter, Tian Feng didn't react for a moment. It was true that he planned this incident, but from the beginning to the end he did not agree to start a war immediately.
Even when he reached the Qingzhou front, he urged Xu Jin to proceed safely. It was only because of Yuan Tan's pleading that he had no choice but to make a move.
To take a step back, if we want to hold him accountable, he won't be as arrogant and arrogant as he said in his letter, right?
According to the accusation in this letter, the death of the 80,000-strong army and the loss of Wen Chou were all because of himself.
He was such a smart man. He was in a daze for a moment before he realized what he was doing and laughed at himself.
"It's nothing more than choosing a discarded son. I had expected that such a day would come, but I didn't expect that it would be like this. My lord, you are very manipulative and scheming, but you are so eager for quick success and cannot clearly distinguish rewards and punishments. Sooner or later, you will self-destruct. "
Yuan Tan sighed and knelt on one knee in front of Tian Feng, "Sir, this defeat is all my fault. Please don't blame my father."
Tian Feng took the sword from Yuan Tan's hand and slowly pulled it out. Looking at the face reflected on the sword, he was once full of high spirits, but now he was full of despair.
Recalling all the things I had with Yuan Shao in the past, I couldn't help but feel desolate. After all, I was let down.
"Master, you don't have to blame yourself. I know that in the letter you wrote to the lord, you must have shied away all the blame on me."
Tian Feng held the sword in one hand and supported Yuan Tan who was kneeling on the ground with the other, and said bitterly: "With the master's mind, you can't deceive him with this trick, but he still made such a decision. He loves his son deeply. This There is nothing wrong with that.
I just feel sad that I, Tian Feng, am a talented person who originally wanted to serve my lord, but I ended up being abandoned without even thinking about it, which is embarrassing and heartbreaking."
As he spoke, Tian Feng choked up.
For him, life and death were not a big deal, and even compared to being let down, death seemed insignificant.
He was sad that he was so loyal to the Yuan family, but in the end he became an abandoned son who protected his heir's prestige.
Although there were slanders from Yuan Tan and the Xin brothers, and perhaps there was a huge quarrel on the other side of Guandu, Tian Feng knew very well that the final result was still the choice made by Yuan Shao.
th.
Perhaps he was grateful for Yuan Tan's kneeling just now, or perhaps he was resentful towards Yuan Shao's greedy ministers, but he still couldn't help but say everything in his heart before leaving.
"Young Master, you are worried about the three young masters competing for the throne, so you are eager to perform meritorious services. This is understandable, but don't forget that you are first and foremost a descendant of the Yuan family. If you do anything to fight for the throne, you will eventually suffer the consequences. "
Yuan Tan was so ashamed that he lowered his head and did not even dare to look at Tian Feng. He just nodded calmly.
"In the northern camp, Guo Tu, Shen Pei, Pang Ji, and the Xin brothers are all sycophants and have no talent for running the country and the world. Please make this clear to yourself, sir.
Although Xu You, Xun Chen and others are talented, they are too selfish and put the interests of the family first in everything. The young master must guard against this when he can use it.
Ju Gong is the pillar of the Northern Kingdom. If you can reuse him, you will be able to calm down the troubled times. "
Douda's tears fell down, and Yuan Tan sobbed and nodded, "I will bear in mind your words, sir."
Tian Feng said no more, but held the sword and walked slowly out of the hall.
When he came to the empty courtyard outside the hall, he looked up at the night sky with a solemn expression.
I don't know how much time passed, but he turned his back to Yuan Tan and said in a deep voice: "Sir, in the sky above the north, the main star is dark and the guest star is bright. According to Yili, it is not conducive to a large army's campaign. After I die, please don't force the enemy again." Xuzhou used troops.
On the Guandu battlefield, the situation is not optimistic to think about, but I hope Jugong has the ability to turn the tide. "
At this moment, Yuan Tan was already in tears.
What kind of person was Tian Feng? He knew clearly that he had become an abandoned son, but at the last moment of his life, he was still worried about the future of the Yuan family.
Such loyalty and courage, such enthusiasm and passion, Yuan Tan can only think of four words, unparalleled in the country!
He even began to regret it. He shouldn't have put the blame on him alone, otherwise he wouldn't have killed a minister who was so loyal to the Yuan family.
"Lord!"
Tian Feng hung the sword on his neck and shouted to the sky, "I, Tian Feng, have never failed my lord in knowing my fate, so I am taking the first step!"
The three-foot-high green peak slid down and splashed with bright red. This cornerstone of the Northland bid farewell to the world in such a ridiculous way.
