The Three Kingdoms Began with the Abduction of Luoshen - Chapter 158
Youzhou, Liaodong.
This place was originally ruled by a big Han, but because of the long distance and the somewhat biased location, it seemed unfamiliar.
The original Liaodong prefect Gongsun Du is the father of the current Liaodong prefect Gongsun Kang, and he can be regarded as their private plot.
After all, the world is falling apart, and there are countless princes occupying one side. Gongsun Kang’s move is not excessive.
Of course, although he stole the land of a county, Gongsun Kang did not have too many aggressive ideas, and only thought about protecting himself.
to survive to this day.
If his attitude is obvious, I am afraid that there is no need to wait for Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao will clean him up.
But no matter what, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are completely cold now, and Cao Cao is the new overlord in this chess game.
Gongsun Kang naturally also holds a wait-and-see attitude.
It is obvious that Gongsun Kang did not want to fight against Cao Cao. In today’s world, I am afraid that no one has the confidence to face Cao Cao’s soldiers. After all, even Yuan Shao has failed, and he has been so thorough.
Or to put it another way, Gongsun Kang is not an ordinary person. Although he lives in a corner, he has done a lot of things.
During his stay in Liaodong, Gongsun Kang led the army to fight against the Dongyi people headed by Goguryeo, and won many victories.
Therefore, people like Gongsun Kang don’t like to be manipulated by others. Even if Cao Cao is bullied, it is impossible to sit still.
What he needs most is undoubtedly Cao Cao’s attitude.
If there is really no way to negotiate, then the fish will die and the net will be broken. Can you send your head over to be chopped off?
At this time, the Yuan brothers were defeated and fled from White Wolf City.
No one could have imagined that Wuhuan, who seemed to be quite powerful, would be defeated so easily by Cao Cao.
Not even the real main force, just the vanguard.
Today’s Yuan brothers have no other choice. They can only go to Liaodong, hoping that Gongsun Kang will take them in.
After all, Yuan Shao was very powerful at the beginning, and the two sides had some friendship, so it was impossible to ignore them completely.
In the eyes of the Yuan brothers, since Gongsun Kang has not yet joined Cao Cao, there is probably still a chance for negotiation.
As long as enough benefits are given, I am not afraid that Gongsun Kang will have no idea.
As the horse galloped, Yuan Xi sighed helplessly and said:
“Third brother, this is the end of the matter. We can only go to Liaodong. If Gongsun Kang is willing to take in you and me, there may be a chance to make a comeback.”
Speaking of these words, Yuan Xi was inexplicably unconvinced, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward.
But Yuan Shang thought more and said solemnly:
“If you and my brother can make a comeback, you must slash that Cao thief with a thousand knives to relieve the hatred in my heart. As for Gongsun Kang of Liaodong, he is not a hero, and he may be able to plot.”
Yuan Xi’s eyes widened, a little speechless.
What time is it now?
Your kid is so daring to think.
However, Yuan Shang disagreed and continued:
“If Gongsun Kang leaves you and me, and the soldiers and horses are still there, as long as you find the right opportunity, this Liaodong will be in your brother’s pocket, and then you can really plan to make a big deal again.”
The corners of Yuan Xi’s mouth twitched slightly. Hearing such big words in his ears is really a bit confusing.
The most important thing is that although Yuan Xi is not a good person, he still knows the basic morality. If Yuan Shang really did this, no matter whether it was successful or not, the two brothers would be ridiculed by the world.
But seeing Yuan Shang’s expression at the moment, Yuan Xi didn’t know how to persuade him, so he could only shake his head and said sternly:
“Don’t think about these things now, finding a place to stand is the key, otherwise it’s just empty talk.”
Don’t look at Yuan Shang’s promise, but it is not easy to operate, and it is estimated that there is no such opportunity.
Then let him continue to be delusional.
After deciding where to go, the two did not waste time and went all the way to Liaodong, where they defected to Gongsun Kang.
Because of Gongsun Kang’s attitude that he has not waited for Cao Cao, it is also a hassle to wait for two hot potatoes.
In this regard, Gongsun Kang was naturally quite hesitant.
Before making a decision, call your subordinates to discuss, how to deal with the two, and whether to accept them?
Although the Yuan brothers have a good abacus, it does not mean that everyone will accommodate others.
Gongsun Kang’s younger brother Gongsun Gong said to Gongsun Kang:
“Although these Yuan brothers were strong in the past, they are different now. If they were left behind, they would most likely have a grudge with Cao Cao, but what Cao Cao thinks now is unknown.”
Gongsun Kang agreed, nodded and said:
“It is this reason, and the prefect is also worried. If Cao Cao is really angered, I am afraid that I will cease to exist in Liaodong.”
Gongsun Gong thought for a while and said aloud:
“But brother don’t have to worry so much, it’s better to leave the two in a false name for the time being, but don’t take it lightly, and let’s see what Cao Cao thinks, it’s not too late to make a decision.
If Cao Cao has no intention of dealing with me in Liaodong, the elder brother can send the heads of the two as a gift. If Cao Cao had already had the idea of using troops against Liaodong, he could unite the two against the enemy. “
Therefore, the role of the Yuan brothers depends on Cao Cao.
It doesn’t even have anything to do with them.
This is a reasonable explanation. Gongsun Kang smiled and said:
“That’s right, let them come in for the time being, but there is another requirement, let them place their troops and horses outside the city.”
The Yuan brothers are not good people. After all, their own brothers are hacking, let alone him, an outsider?
It is normal for Gongsun Kang to be a little worried.
If they are allowed to bring the army in, I am afraid they will really cause trouble, but it is better to be stable like this.
If the Yuan brothers were truly united, they would naturally come in willingly, but if they had ulterior motives, they would not have to enter the city.
At this moment, the Yuan brothers were waiting outside, and Gongsun Gong personally brought people there to tell the story.
Yuan Shang was naturally reluctant to keep the army outside, which was equivalent to sending the head to the opposite face.
But other than that, they have no other way.
Yuan Xi readily agreed and said:
“There is no problem with this matter. Please tell the general to the prefect. My two brothers are sincere to join Liaodong.”
Yuan Shang opened his mouth and was speechless in the end.
When Gongsun Gong left, Yuan Shang suddenly said with anger:
“Second brother, what does this mean, without the army in hand, what else can you and I do in the city?”
Yuan Xi looked resolute and said loudly:
“Third brother, this is the end, do you have any other way?
Now I am waiting to join Liaodong instead of Liaodong seeking you and me. If I don’t give up something, how should I enter the city? “
Compared with the city, it is less safe outside.
Hearing Yuan Xi’s words, Yuan Shang was finally persuaded and sighed:
“What the second brother said is very true, I understand.”
In such a desperate situation, I have to give up something, and nothing in the world is perfect.
These are all fixed numbers, Yuan Xi seems to be very Buddhist.
