I really just want to lose my fortune

After Wei Wang and Xu Shu left, Yuan Shao's eyes were on Ju Shou.

"Gongyu, why do you say you can borrow troops? Whether you listen to Yuan Hao or Gong Ze, we don't need to lend troops to King Wei." Yuan Shao said.

"For the sake of righteousness, we must be tied to the king of Wei. At this time, we will be in a stalemate. Then what we are going to do, everyone knows." Ju Shou sighed: "If we don't send troops, we can use food and grass. The reason for not arriving. If we send troops, we may be accused of having ulterior motives, and we will have to face King Yan, which will damage our combat power."

"If we send troops to merge the prefecture, we will have a chance to win the next prefecture." Guo Tu retorted.

"Is it possible?" Jushou said: "The situation is chaotic now. This is a dangerous move, which is equivalent to putting all our wealth on it."

"This is how we have the chance to fight for hegemony," Guo Tu said.

"You can gamble, but it's not necessary." Ju Shou shook his head, and said to Tian Feng: "Yuanhao, it's really a good idea for me to hold back and wait for the autumn harvest, but if there is no righteousness given by King Wei, what should I do when the time comes?" How to move, do you also learn from Dong Zhuo and King Yan? By then it will be too late."

"My idea is that the world will be in chaos at that time, and I will be fully prepared at that time." Tian Feng said.

"Then we still need righteousness, don't forget, this is still the Qin family's country, foreign ministers rebelled, and fighting for hegemony with the prince are two different things." Ju Shou said.

"Okay, let's listen to the public first." Yuan Shao made a final decision: "Then, wait for the autumn harvest!"

…………

At the same time, Longzhong.

Zhuge Liang ushered in an interesting guest today. The man looked wretched, looked very ugly, and was dressed in coarse clothes.

Compared with King Wei seeing Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang only saw him once seven times. This time Zhuge Liang swept the couch to greet him, which shows that he attaches great importance to this person.

"Hey, isn't this the Zhuge Kongming that Wei Wang Qi can't take care of, why did he make tea for me?" Pang Tong smiled and sat opposite Zhuge Liang.

"Shi Yuan, don't be joking." Zhuge Liang shook his head: "The princes are all the same, each has its own flaws. King Zhao is benevolent on the surface, but he is either a hero who dares to be used by anyone, or he is a ruthless person. King Zhi of Chu has a great talent and lack of talent, he was discarded as an outcast by martial talents before, if he was not sent to Jiaozhou to check and balance King Zhao, I am afraid he would not even have the foundation."

"King Qi has the most upright position and the strongest ability among the several princes. He was cultivated by military talents and His Majesty. He doesn't make friends with courtiers, and he doesn't go out to do business. In a prosperous age, he would be truly orthodox. Unfortunately, now Chaos has come."

"As for the King of Wei... To be honest, King Wei's background is not bad in the fight for hegemony, and he was born of a queen. With Yuan Zhi as his assistant, he should make a difference."

"Then why don't you want to go out of the mountain?" Pang Tong picked up the teacup casually and took a sip.

"Because none of the princes is truly benevolent." Zhuge Liang sighed.

"Wait." Pang Tong was stunned for a moment: "You are not the kind of soft-hearted man who uses tricks. You give advice to King Wei, that is to let him occupy the land of two states and fight for hegemony in the world. Isn't this turning father and son against each other? ?”

"A counselor is a counselor, and the lord is the lord." Zhuge Liang said softly, "It's different."

"That's right, but there may be capable people under Zhao Wang who used tricks to hide it from Zhao Wang." Pang Tong said: "He may be really benevolent."

"It's also possible, but I still don't want to go out." Zhuge Liang shook his head: "In the final analysis, there is still a way to stop the current chaos in the world. As long as everyone is united, why should Dong Zhuo and King Yan be afraid?"

"It's a pity that I think the four princes should think about how to get their own position, not for the people of the world."

"So, the world is bound to be chaotic."

"No matter how you fight, it's a matter between brother and father. I don't want to join forces."

"If I choose one person to be loyal to, it must be to help with all my strength. Unfortunately, I haven't seen anyone worthy of it so far."

King Wei was sincere enough when he asked Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang was still not moved.

In Romance, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang, but it took a lot of twists and turns, and there was even a section of crying bitterly.

The situation of Wei Wang and Liu Bei is different. He feels that he has soldiers and counselors under his command. One more Zhuge Liang is a reinforcement, and one less Zhuge Liang... the impact is not too great.

In terms of sincerity, he has already lost to Uncle Liu Huang.

Looking at the person again, Liu Bei was the one who would take the people away no matter how miserable he was, and the people were willing to go with him, but King Wei did not have this ability.

Liu Bei was in a desperate situation at the time, and King Wei had Yuan Shao's support, which meant that Zhuge Liang could not go with him.

"Ha, I'm an ordinary person, but I don't have the same idea as you. I just want to choose a master." Pang Tong said, "Who do you think is better?"

"Don't you already have the answer in your heart? Ask me why." Zhuge Liang smiled.

"I know you have studied a lot of things, such as... the art of hope." Pang Tong said solemnly: "When you talked with King Wei, you probably didn't bring this into it, did you?"

"I don't like to rely on that kind of thing." Zhuge Liang shook his head, frowned and said: "To be honest, King Zhao is the one I can't see through the most. His praying for rain is completely against the sky, and the most terrifying thing is him. It succeeded. According to the records in the book, if it was 1000 years ago, this kind of thing could really be done. I don’t have much practice in magic arts. I don't practice much...If it was 1000 years ago, I could even change the direction of the wind. But now...with all due respect, it is impossible to do it."

"It's a pity that I wasn't there at the time, otherwise I could see through it."

"You mean, he is destined?" Pang Tong's eyes widened.

"No, the secret of heaven is vague now, or maybe I'm not cultivated enough, so I can't see it at all. How did that rain come... I think, maybe there is someone with great power who paved the way for him with his life." Zhuge Liang spread his hands and said: "Otherwise, even if you start practicing this kind of thing in the womb, you won't be able to do it."

Compared with that kind of alchemy, Zhuge Liang believed in his own wisdom more.

In the past when the aura was sufficient, it was enough to pinch and count, but now, it really depends on one's own brain.

According to Zhuge Liang's common sense, Qin Ge really couldn't do it.

In other words, no one who practiced Taoism could understand what Qin Ge did. Zhuge Liang was not there at the time, so he could only deduce it in a reasonable direction.

"In short, others think that King Zhao may be very weak now, but I think his climate has already been established, and he just needs to wait for time to ferment." Zhuge Liang said: "The time he went out to do business is really good, and the memory of the people will not be too old. It has been a long time, and Zhao Wang has been showing it to the whole world from the time he went out to relieve disasters to the chaos in the world."

"Especially where he walks everywhere, it looks like a wind and horse, but there are also his shadows everywhere."

"If you talk about the luck of the emperor, this King Zhao is definitely not bad."

"Ha, troubled times, destiny, I don't believe in these things." Pang Tong said: "If whoever gets the destiny can win the world, then everyone will compare who is lucky, and why fight?"

"Well, I thought so too." Zhuge Liang nodded.

"So, do you want to go to Chang'an with me?" Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang with burning eyes.

"Go to Chang'an?" Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows: "The general trend, no one can change the current situation."

"When did I say that the building would collapse?" Pang Tong smiled: "Accompany me to meet King Qi."

"See King Qi..." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "I won't go out of the mountain."

"When did I tell you to come out of the mountain?" Pang Tong yelled strangely: "Don't forget, when we were studying, the two of us competed in the sand table, but you lost to me, and you owe me."

"After that, you won't compare with me any more." Zhuge Liang said dumbfounded.

"In terms of military affairs, you may not be as good as me." Pang Tong snatched Zhuge Liang's fan and fanned himself: "Anyway, come with me this time, be a book boy for me, and help me see the king of Qi. Is it the Ming Lord?"

"You want to choose King Qi?" Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows.

"Other princes have their own foundations, but King Qi has not moved. I think he must be short of counselors." Pang Tong said: "Besides, as long as King Qi moves, the whole Yangzhou will belong to King Qi."

"Not necessarily, he just doesn't make friends with courtiers." Zhuge Liang said.

"Oh, even if there are others, with my ability, I can't convince them?" Pang Tong shook his head and said, "But, it's lonely to go by yourself. After reading it, we two can discuss it."

"You lost to me before, do you admit it or not?"

"Okay, okay..." Zhuge Liang said helplessly: "I've agreed, I'll only be your bookboy for a few days, and I've paid off the gamble. If you let me go out of the mountain, don't even think about it."

"Well, you don't even need to talk at that time." Pang Tong said: "Just help me see how much power this Great Qin still has. I think this can only be seen in Chang'an."

"If you say you don't believe it, you still believe it in the end?" Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows.

"No, I just want to see clearly. If the time comes, then the time makes heroes." Pang Tong looked outside: "If the time doesn't come, then I will create a time!"

"Okay, courageous, Liang will accompany you through this journey." Zhuge Liang stood up: "It's just right, let's see what Chang'an is like now."

Chapter 288 Convergence

Bingzhou, Shangdang County, Diaoyin.

When you arrive at Diaoyin, you are not far from Chang'an.

A group of people came here in a hurry, and there were refugees fleeing everywhere on the road.

They carried their bags and looked hurried.

Some people have already fallen to the ground, while others still have the strength to move forward.

There are very few people in carriages and horses.

It can be said that everyone is fleeing in the direction of Chang'an, and only one team is going retrograde.

Many people think that only Chang'an is the safest.

Both Chang'an and Xiliang are preparing for battle at this time, but it is an internal struggle among their own people.

Although there were a few enemies who often came in to loot before, people still had hope at that time. What if they thought about it, what if it didn't come to me?If you leave the place where you were born and raised yourself, surviving will be a problem.

Now that the Tatar army is pressing down on the border, it is another situation.

The people on the border know all too well that Tatars are inhumane.If they can grab food, they will grab food; if they can grab people, they will grab people; and people may become their food.

"It's finally here." Thinking about the hardships along the way, Qin Ge couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

No wonder Liu Bowen didn't suggest him to take this route. Now it's so difficult just to get to Bingzhou, and then he will enter Chang'an from Bingzhou, and from Chang'an to Jiaozhou.

When others are playing lively, Qin Ge may be on his way all the time, and the risk is extremely high!

It's too ostentatious to lead a large group of people. If Qin Ge's dear fifth brother senses trouble, he will definitely use the army to kill Qin Ge.

Moreover, near Chang'an and Jizhou, the risks are also extremely high.

Looking at the displaced people, Qin Ge's heart ached.

It can be said that these people were displaced and died on the road, which had a lot to do with him. If it weren't for him, Li Ru and Jia Xu would not have come up with such a chaotic strategy.

Qin Ge warned himself again and again that in the future, unless it was absolutely necessary, Li Ru and Jia Xu must not be allowed to play at will. The two people's play is really terrible.

Believe in such an opponent, no one wants to see it.

If you can fight, you can fight, if you can't, I will flip the table.

"Excuse me, when will the final payment be settled?" Feng Chuixue, the assassin of Yi City, said to Qin Ge that day.

She was the one who first negotiated business with Qin Ge, Cai Wenji and others, and finally escorted Qin Ge and others to Bingzhou.

"It's almost there." Qin Ge said in embarrassment, "The person who picks me up is almost here."

Qin Ge is still in the previous group. At present, Jia Xu, Liu Bowen and others have not arrived, or have already arrived.

Da da da……

Just then, there was a sound of hooves.

Qin Ge looked as far as the eye could see, Xin Qiji was in the lead, followed by a group of cavalry.

When Qin Ge first arrived here, he had already released the signal, and Xin Qiji came here after hearing the news.

Soon, Xin Qiji and his cavalry stopped in front of Qin Ge and the others.

Xin Qiji quickly got off his horse and saluted Qin Ge: "Wang... Mr. Qin, you have suffered!"

Qin Ge passed a few letters through Tianyi City, telling Yang Guozhong, Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Jiao, that he was fine, and that Dong Zhuo directed and acted to rebel.

Qin Ge's loyalists all knew that nothing happened to Qin Ge, and they were also relieved.

Otherwise, with Xin Qiji's violent temper, his first reaction when he got the news was to raid Liangzhou with soldiers and horses to rescue Qin Ge.

Fortunately, he was held down by Yang Guozhong, Qin Qiong and others.

"It's hard for you too." Qin Ge said with emotion: "It must be very difficult for the Tatar army to overwhelm the country, right?"

"Sooner or later, this battle will be fought." Xin Qiji saw that Qin Ge's first concern at this moment was still a major issue, and he couldn't help admiring him even more: "Since they're here, let's fight with them and see who they are. Which one is stronger and weaker? Don't worry, sir, the general will definitely go all out to prevent the Tatars from messing with our Daqin country."

"Well, I believe you." Qin Ge patted Xin Qiji on the shoulder.

"Sir, it's really... amazing to be able to bring all the cavalry." Xin Qiji couldn't help saying with admiration when he saw that Qin Ge had brought both men and horses.

"It's not my credit, it's this girl's credit." Qin Ge said: "Where's uncle? So many of us came out, but a lot of this girl's resources and contacts were wasted, and she encountered several dangers during the period. Her People have also lost a lot, and they have to pay the money to others.”

"Still in Gao Nu." Xin Qiji said.

Gaonu, this name is very unfamiliar to many people, and this is just a small earthen city in Bingzhou.

However, in later generations, it has a very famous name: Yan'an...

Some cities failed to change their names, while others were quite successful.

"It's not all about us." Feng Chuixue said, "This little brother with a gun is the best."

"Don't dare to do it." Zhao Yun said modestly.

If there is no Zhao Yun along the way, the loss will be really heavy.

Liangzhou is in turmoil, but anything can happen.

"General Zhao, long time no see." Xin Qiji saluted Zhao Yun.

"General Xin." Zhao Yun walked to Qin Ge's side and replied.
