Jimei Lu of the Three Kingdoms

"Beihai County has always been barren, and the main force of the Yellow Turbans has never been to Beihai. Even if the Yellow Turbans are in chaos now and the dragons have no leader, there will not be any army that is stupid enough to borrow food from Beihai."

Lin Feng almost burst out laughing when he heard Xi Zhicai's analysis, which meant that Guan Hai was an idiot who came to Beihai to borrow food, but he didn't get the food and grass, but was beheaded by Guan Erye for nothing. lost his life.

"It's impossible for the bandits surrounding Beihai City to be Yellow Turban bandits, at least they won't be regular Yellow Turban rebels. According to reports from the scouts, most of these bandits spoke with a Xiapi accent. Based on this situation, I think of someone. His surname was Que, his name was Xuan, and he was from Xiapi. In the early years, he gathered crowds to fight against the government, and was suppressed later. Only this person escaped with his life. Thousands of people raised their troops to fight against the court again. According to Kuo's calculations, the bandits besieging Beihai should be Que Xuan's troops."

"Que Xuan? I seem to have heard of this person, but even if it was Que Xuan who besieged Beihai instead of the Yellow Turban, why did you assert that the siege of Beihai was a conspiracy by others?"

"Hehe, my lord is too old-fashioned. Think about it. Quexuan's own military strength is not strong. Surviving in the Xiapi area is already extremely difficult. How come the power suddenly appeared under Beihai City? Obviously, someone not only secretly supported money and food, but even He also borrowed a large number of troops from him, and it is more likely that Que Xuan's subordinates are not his subordinates at all, but exist as puppets. This army besieging Beihai actually has another commander, so it can easily defeat the tens of thousands of Zhen's army in Beihai. "

"According to Mister's deduction, who used Que Xuan's name to come to Beihai to make trouble?"

"My lord, you are asking the question knowingly. Que Xuan was born in Xiapi, who can command Que Xuan?"

"Could it be Tao Qian, the new governor of Xuzhou?"

"Although the Lord's words are not right, they are not far away."

Lin Feng was completely Spartan.

If Xi Zhicai's words are true, then Tao Qian is no joke.

Did Beihai provoke you?

You can manage your Xuzhou well, why come to Beihai if you have nothing to do?Could it be that Tao Qian already has the heart to annex Beihai?

It's impossible. It's not yet a situation where the world's heroes are separated. Even if Tao Qian kills Beihai prefect Zhen Yi, it is impossible to merge Beihai into Xuzhou. The imperial court will soon send a new Beihai prefect. This matter is due to Tao Qian Not much good.

"Sir, even if Tao Qian killed my father-in-law with the help of Que Xuan, it is impossible for Beihai to fall into his hands, so what is the significance of Tao Qian's actions?"

"My lord's words are wrong. Kuang never said that Que Xuan was appointed by Tao Xuzhou. Tao Gongzu is a man of upright character and has always had great ambitions. It is unlikely that he would have such a conspiracy. Judging from the situation, Que Xuan must have been appointed by Xuzhou. Appointed by a powerful person, this person not only holds a high position and authority, but also holds military power in his hands, and must have important military achievements. Once Zhen Beihai is frustrated by Que Xuan's hands, or even killed by Que Xuan, this person has a great confidence to go to Beihai As the prefect, that’s why Que Xuan invaded Beihai.”

In Xuzhou, there are very few people who have a high position in Xuzhou, who have made great military achievements, and who are also good at performing intrigues. All these conditions are met. Lin Feng doesn't even need to guess, a name is almost blurted out.

Zang Ba Zang Xuangao!

Xi Zhicai guessed right.

It was Zang Ba who ordered Que Xuan to invade Beihai.

Speaking of this incident, it was precisely because of Lin Feng's time travel that the incident deviated from the historical track.

If according to the normal historical trajectory, Zang Ba fought south and north under Tao Qian's command, defeated many yellow scarf thieves, and was appointed as the captain of cavalry. At this time, he should be in high spirits and lead the army to station in the Kaiyang area, and he should be the overlord of his own party, free and easy. Unspeakable joy.

However, due to the appearance of Lin Feng, the battle of Changshe was carried out ahead of schedule, and Bocai and He Yi died in battle. As a result, the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Xuzhou was extinguished several months in advance. Zang Ba did not always station troops in Xuzhou as in history, but Huangfu Song conquered Julu in the north and made more military exploits, which also triggered Zang Ba's ambition in advance.

At the end of the Battle of Julu, Zang Ba followed Tao Qian back to Xuzhou, and was named General Benedict and Xuzhou Meritorious Cao. His status in Xuzhou was only inferior to Tao Qian. This ending not only did not satisfy Zang Ba, but made him even more eager Going up to the next floor, I look forward to ascending to the position of prefect one day.

Since he had been under Tao Qian's command for a long time, Zang Ba didn't dare to peek at Tao Qian's Xuzhou prefect. After carefully analyzing the situation around him, Zang Ba turned his attention to Beihai.

Zhen Yi's talent is mediocre, and everyone who has been in contact with Zhen Yi can tell that if Zhen Yi hadn't had a good son-in-law, Lin Feng, let alone the prefect of Beihai, he would have been able to save his life during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Zhen Yi was lucky.

Zang Ba saw that Zhen Yi, who was far below him in terms of talent and strength, not only rose steadily, but also rose rapidly from Shang Cai Ling, who was far below Zang Ba's official position, and climbed to the position of Beihai prefect in just a few months. Moreover, with Lin Feng's assistance, he met the emperor several times, earning enough political capital, and the road to ascent in the future will be wider and wider.

All these made Zang Ba's eyes turn red with jealousy, and his psychology became more and more unbalanced. Naturally, Zang Ba's target was placed on Beihai Zhenyi.

The acquaintance of Que Xuan and Zang Ba was quite accidental.

Originally, Zang Ba was ordered to go to Xiapi to destroy Que Xuan, who claimed to be the emperor. Unexpectedly, one of Que Xuan's subordinates and Zang Ba used to be from the same town. Through this relationship, Que Xuan and Zang Ba conspired several times to reach an agreement. protocol.

Zang Ba pretended to attack Que Xuan, and Que Xuan pretended to be defeated and fled to Beihai. If Zhen Yi's son-in-law Lin Feng led the army to Beihai City, Que Xuan could bypass Jizhou and flee to Youzhou.If Lin Feng, the only one under Zhen Yi who can fight, has not arrived yet, then Zang Ba will lend Que Xuan [-] yellow scarves to surrender, and beat Beihai first.

Que Xuan obviously arrived one step earlier than Lin Feng, and that's why Beihai City was besieged.

Of course, Xi Zhicai is not a god, and there is no way for him to guess the specific situation between Zang Ba and Que Xuan out of thin air, but this does not prevent Xi Zhicai from deriving the matter to figure out the context.

At this time in Xuzhou City, Zang Ba was sitting on a tiger-skin chair, with two people sitting beside him, Sun Guan and Yin Li, whom Zang Ba had always relied on as his right-hand men.

"Zhongtai, do you think that idiot Que Xuan can kill Zhen Beihai?"

Leaning on the back of the chair, Zang Ba asked Sun Guan lazily.

Sun Guan, whose name is Zhongtai, is from Taishan, Yanzhou. Looking at his face, he has a good face, with a fair complexion and a handsome appearance. If someone who is not familiar with him sees him for the first time, he will definitely regard Sun Guan as a scholar. He is a scholar, but he doesn't know that although Sun Guan is born with a scholarly appearance, he is a first-class warrior beside Zang Ba. He has known Zang Ba since he was a child. After falling, nearly a hundred scars all over his body are in front of his body, and he is famous for his life-saving when facing the enemy.

"Xuan Gao, how many times have you asked me this today? It seems that your mood is difficult to calm down. This is not like your usual performance."

Sun Guan and Zang Ba are childhood friends, and their conversations are always casual.

"Zhongtai, I can't help but not be anxious about this matter. Although Zhen Yi is mediocre, his son-in-law Lin Feng and Lin Zhirou are really amazing. You saw it with your own eyes when you were in Changshe back then. He was hit by an ax in the crotch and killed countless times before the battle. General, the gangster Bocai was so frightened by him alone that he dared not fight. If Que Xuan can't conquer Beihai before Lin Feng arrives, then our plan will fail this time. It doesn't matter if Que Xuan dies, it's just that It's a pity that I lent him the [-] soldiers."

"Xuan Gao is too worried. Although Que Xuan is not a brave and invincible warrior, he is definitely not something that a nerd like Zhen Yi can resist. As long as Que Xuan is given half a day, the gate of Beihai City will definitely be breached."

It was Yin Li and Yin Shifeng who said this.

Comparing Yin Li's appearance to Sun Guan's, it can be called horrible, with splayed eyebrows, squinted eyes, bulbous nose and pot mouth, and pimples all over his face that can scare ghosts to death.

Don't look at Yin Li's ugly looks, but he is quite talented, and he is also a confidant who started with Zang Ba. Later, after Yin Li followed Zang Ba to surrender to the shameless Cao Cao, he once achieved the post of Dongguan prefect (this Dongguan is not the same place as the modern Dongguan of Guangdong, Dongguan County during the Three Kingdoms period is located in the northern part of Linyi City in today's Shandong Province).

Yin Li's words obviously made Zang Ba sound very satisfactory, Zang Ba straightened up from his chair and smiled, "Lu Er, you said that Que Xuan would definitely be able to enter Beihai City and kill Zhen Yi?"

Yin Li's nickname was Lu'er, and Zang Ba and Sun Guan, who were close to him, always called him that.

Sun Guan glared at Yin Li, and said before Yin Li could speak: "Xuan Gao, what Lu Er said is the best situation, I advise you not to have too much hope for Que Xuan. We and Que Xuan After fighting against each other, do you feel that Que Xuanxiang is someone who can conquer cities and land? If Zhen Yi is so stupid as to go out to fight Que Xuan, then Que Xuan has a great chance of succeeding."

Sun Guan's meaning was very clear. Que Xuan was a bandit who was born as a first-class bandit. He really didn't have much experience in siege. It might be difficult for him to pose a threat to the fortified Beihai City.

Zang Ba could also figure it out, but he seemed a little out of his composure because he was too concerned about gain and loss. Hearing Sun Guan's persuasion, he sighed and retracted his body back into the seat.

Yin Li retorted Sun Guandao unconvinced: "Zhongtai, I don't like to hear your words. You also agreed to encourage Que Xuan to attack Beihai at the beginning. If Que Xuan really has no choice but to win Beihai Zhenyi, then we will work hard to make such a What did you do when you came out?"

Sun Guan smiled slightly, patted Yin Li on the shoulder and said, "Lu Er, I am not as good as you when it comes to stabilizing the army and raising food and salaries. But when it comes to marching and deploying troops, you are still far behind. Back then I Agreeing that Xuan Gao used Que Xuan's hand to attack Beihai, he did not expect to solve the matter once and for all. The purpose of lending troops to Que Xuan was just to let Que Xuan touch Lin Feng and Lin Zhirou, and see how he reacted to Zhen Yi being besieged .”

"Lin Feng is Zhen Yi's son-in-law. How else can he react to Zhen Yi being surrounded? Of course, he must work hard to save his father-in-law."

"Haha, Lu Er, your thinking is still too simple. If Lin Feng really reacts like this, then I assure you that within three months, Xuan Gao will be able to get the post of Beihai prefect, and you and my brothers can leave Xuzhou and go to Go to Beihai happily."

"Zhongtai, what do you mean by that? Quickly explain it to me, why do I become more confused the more I listen to you?"

Chapter 077

Inside Beihai City, Zhen Yi frowned and kept twisting his beard with his hands, his face full of distress.

Zhen Yan circled around his old man's seat, stamping her feet vigorously from time to time to vent her dissatisfaction.

The father and son have maintained this posture for a while. To be precise, the father and son have begun to perform anxiously since they came to report that Lin Feng's army did not launch an attack on the besieging bandits as scheduled.

"Father, what do you mean by Lin Feng? He obviously stationed troops near Beihai, but he still refused to send troops to help. Doesn't Lin Feng know that Beihai City is in danger now?"

Zhen Yi looked up at Zhen Yan, whose eyes were red with anger, and said with a little hesitation: "Yan'er, don't talk nonsense. Feng'er hasn't sent troops to rescue him yet, so I guess he has his considerations. When it comes to grasping the timing on the battlefield , you and I, father and son, are tied together, and we are not Feng'er's opponent, so let's not make wild guesses, so as not to mess up our minds."
