Han Fu suffered successive defeats at the hands of Gongsun Zan. If his timid and cowardly character was suddenly exposed, he immediately panicked, like an ant on a hot pot, unable to bear it.
"My lord, Gongsun Zan has won consecutive battles. All the counties are looking forward to surrender. Yuan Benchu is also ready to make a move. His intentions are unpredictable. We are all worried about your lord in private!" On this day, Xun Chen, who had always been regarded as a confidant by Han Fu, was
Suddenly he said this to Han Fu.
When Han Fu heard this, he glanced at Xun Chen and thought that Xun Chen had an idea in mind and came over to offer advice. He immediately asked eagerly, "In this case, what do you think I should do?"
Xun Chen did not answer directly, but asked instead, "According to my lord's estimation, how does my lord compare to Yuan Benzhu in terms of generosity and kindness to others?"
Han Fu thought deeply for a moment, shook his head and sighed, "Oh...it's not as good as that!"
Xun Chen seemed to have expected Han Fu's answer, and asked, "How is my lord compared to Yuan Benchu in terms of decision-making in times of crisis, wisdom and courage?"
Han Fu said again, "It's not as good as this!"
"Then, in terms of spreading kindness throughout his life and benefiting the people all over the world, how can my lord compare with Yuan Benchu?"
Han Fu shook his head and said, "It's still not as good as that!"
Having said this, Xun Chen's heart was filled with joy. He had been with Han Fu for a while and had a deep understanding of his character. Having reached this point in the discussion, Xun Chen
Chen knew that more than half of his goal had been achieved.
In fact, Xun Chen is no longer Han Fu's subordinate. The situation in Jizhou has developed to such an extent, and Han Fu is indeed not a wise master. Therefore, many of Han Fu's subordinates have
They had other ideas, and Xun Chen was one of these people.
It happened that Xu You and Feng Ji found Xun Chen at this time and wanted Xun Chen to help them persuade Han Fu to abandon Jizhou, so this scene happened today.
Xun Chen knew that now that he had laid the groundwork, it was time to add the final spark.
"Gongsun Zan was a brave man and good at fighting. When he was in Youzhou a few years ago, he was known as the White Horse General. His troops could not withstand the enemy.
Yuan Benchu was even more of an outstanding figure in his time. He was known as the Four Generations and Three Dukes. Everyone in the world didn't know him. How could he remain under his lord for a long time?
Jizhou is the capital of the world, with countless people, money and food. It is a battleground for military strategists. Gongsun Zan has been coveting it for a long time, and I am afraid that Yuan Benchu is no exception. The lord, relying on this treasure land, has no power to resist the evil wolves around him, and is afraid that he will be in danger.
Between the heels.
From the following point of view, the only solution for now is to give up Jizhou to Yuan Benchu. After Yuan Benchu gets Jizhou, not only can he repel Gongsun Zan's attack, but Yuan Benchu will definitely be grateful for his lord's kindness in giving up Jizhou, so he will treat the governor favorably.
In this way, my lord can not only avoid a military disaster, but also gain a good reputation as a man of merit. In this way, isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Han Fu was timid by nature and had always lacked independent opinions. Now that he was deceived by Xun Chen, he unexpectedly agreed.
The next day, Han Fu gathered all his generals and counselors together early.
In the lobby, Han Fu said helplessly, "I am a former official of the Yuan family, but my talents are not as good as those of Yuan Shao, and letting the wise be a virtue since ancient times. Now I am determined to ask Yuan Shao to govern the land of Jizhou on my behalf. I don't know if you can
Objection!"
When they suddenly heard such big news, except for Xun Chen, Xin Ping, Xin Pi and others who had been prepared for a long time, everyone else had a look of shock on their faces and didn't understand why their lord made such a sudden decision.
Such a ridiculous decision.
"My lord, Yuan Shao can only hold a county. How can you, my lord, have strong soldiers and horses? This Yuan Shao is looking up to me. It's like a baby on the palm of his hand. He will starve to death if he is not nursed. How can I give him the treasure land of Jizhou?"
Surprised, Changshi Gengwu didn't even care about etiquette, and immediately stood up and said loudly.
Geng Wu was different from the others under Han Fu. He was one of the loyal ministers under Han Fu and he truly and sincerely considered Han Fu.
However, at this time, Han Fu was frightened by the sudden crisis and was out of breath. How could he listen to Geng Wu's opinion? Even though Geng Wu tried hard to persuade him, Han Fu still insisted on going his own way and sent people to invite Yuan Shao to come.
Take over Jizhou.
Geng Wu and others saw that Han Fu was stubborn and refused to listen to advice, so they had no choice but to sigh. Many officials also took advantage of the fact that their lord was so helpless that he was so frightened by a little Gongsun Zan, and they gave up one after another.
Han Fu left and went his separate ways elsewhere.
…
"Hahaha, okay, okay, this Han Fu is indeed cowardly and incompetent by nature, and he actually gave up such a treasure land in Jizhou like this!" Yuan Shao said ecstatically after receiving Han Fu's letter.
"Generals, listen to the order and follow me to assemble the army and set off to Yecheng to take over Jizhou." Yuan Shao stood up and said energetically.
"promise."
…
"My lord doesn't listen to our advice, what can I do?" Over here in Yecheng, Chief Shi Geng Wu said worriedly.
"Brother Geng, I still have a group of soldiers available. Why don't we ambush outside the city and take advantage of him to kill Yuan Shao, an ambitious man, in order to protect our lord's cause." Zhao Fu felt fierce in his heart, and then thought of such a thing.
idea.
"Yes, Brother Geng, there is only one way to do it now." Beside Geng Wu, Cheng Huan, Min Chun, Li Li and others all agreed.
"Okay, this is the only way to give it a try." After a long silence, Geng Wu finally made a decision.
It's a pity that with Yan Liang, Wen Chou and these two peerless generals by their side, these people's plan failed in the end.
After the assassination failed, Yuan Shao, in order to establish his prestige and frighten the other thoughtful people under Han Fu, did not hold back at all, and directly killed all of Geng Wu and his family, not even sparing his family members.
After receiving the news, Han Fu felt a little unbearable, but looking at Yuan Shao's murderous face, he still did not dare to plead for mercy, and forcefully swallowed back the words he was about to spit out.
It's a pity that a few loyal ministers sacrificed their lives for the sake of Han Fu, but in the end they ended up with such a miserable end.
With the end of this chaos, Jizhou also began to enter the era of Yuan Shao.
When Gongsun Zan got the news, he still didn't understand that he was being used by Yuan Shao. He even wanted to send troops to attack Yuan Shao. From this, the battle between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao began.
