Xuande

Chapter 738

Guan Yu thought it was good that Fei Zhan was so knowledgeable about current affairs.

But this matter is not a trivial matter, he needs to be more cautious.

"Do you think he's reliable? Can he do it?"

"It might not have been possible before, but it will definitely be possible now."

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Even if we don't do anything, the Yellow Turban Army will be on its way soon. Surrounded by groups, they lack food and clothing, their morale is low, and there is no outside help. Such an army has never collapsed since ancient times. We have won this battle."

Guan Yu put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up, walked a few steps, thought for a moment, then turned his head to look at Guo Jia.

"If this is done, wouldn't Fei Zhan take the greatest credit this time?"

"It is necessary."

Guo Jia whispered: "The problem of the Shanyue Group cannot be solved overnight. Facts have proved that the general's method of solving the bandits in Bingzhou is correct. If we need to solve this problem in the same way, it is necessary to master the internal relationship of the Shanyue Group.

We have to allow some of them to make meritorious deeds and establish a relationship of mutual trust with the court. Only in this way can we disintegrate the Shanyue Group from within. If such a person does not exist, how will the court deal with Shanyue in Yangzhou? "

Guan Yu stroked his long beard, pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"What you said makes sense. If you can use this to gain Fei Zhan's trust in the court, it won't be considered a loss..."

"General Guan, the art of war says that a good fighter has no great achievements. For us, the most important thing is definitely not a one-sided victory on the battlefield, but more importantly, a long-term victory."

Guo Jia said slowly: "In this way, even if you don't get the military achievements for a while, the general will definitely know your long-term achievements."

Guan Yu stopped stroking his beard, nodded, and said nothing.

He approved of Guo Jia's strategy, but pointed out that the combat effectiveness of Fei Zhan's troops may not be reliable, and the Han army can assist from it.

For example, launch a feint attack from the front to attract the attention of the Yellow Turban Army, so that Fei Zhan can easily succeed in the raid, give him a credit, do the favor, let Fei Zhan understand the source of this credit more clearly, and don't forget the help of the Han Army.

Guo Jia thinks this is possible.

So the strategy was decided, and Guo Jia sneaked into Fei Zhan's headquarters again, and discussed the matter with Fei Zhan. Fei Zhan was overjoyed, and made an agreement with the Han army, promising that he would never break his promise.

They made a plan to launch an operation on the fifth day after the New Year's Eve. The reason was that the longer the time, the more the Yellow Turban Army would be short of supplies and their combat effectiveness would be lower.

However, the so-called plan could not keep up with the changes. On the third day after the New Year's Eve, Xu He personally brought people to the top of Feizhan Mountain, and brought a large amount of gold and silver belongings. He put on a humble gesture and said that he came to apologize.

"General Sima's tone and attitude were not very good before, which made you feel unhappy. I deeply apologize for this. I am worried that you have not calmed down and don't want to see me, so I come to visit you now and apologize to you. With your broad-mindedness, I believe that you will accept our apology."

It has to be said that Xu He is a man who knows how to behave, and has made his attitude to the extreme, with a humble appearance, which looks like a little daughter-in-law who has been pissed off.

If it was in a normal state, Fei Zhan wouldn't take those things too seriously, maybe he would forgive him, and all this would pass, but...

The problem is not that simple.

Come and tell me this now, it's too late.

Fei Zhan actually admired Xu He a lot. He felt that it was not easy for this guy to persist in being chased and beaten by the Han army all the way from Qingzhou, then to Xuzhou, and then to Yangzhou.

He obviously has some abilities.

However, he has the ability, but his luck is not very good.

There is a strong man far stronger than him in the Luoyang court who is uniting the world. If you rely on this strong man, you will have a future. If you rebel against this strong man, you will have no future.

That is a military force of 5 people. For Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhi to the south, it is an absolute crushing level of military force.

If the Shanyue Group breaks out in an all-round way and cooperates in an all-round way, the military force that can be pulled out may be more in number, and it can pose some threats to the Han army, but can't the Han army draw more troops to support?
Moreover, Fei Zhan had also heard of Guan Yu's reputation, and Fei Zhan didn't have much confidence in facing this famous general in the world.

Therefore, Fei Zhan can only feel sorry for Xu He.

He pretended to reconcile with Xu He, and promised to sell food to Xu He, and promised to continue to send troops to support Xu He and fight against the Han army, thus stabilizing Xu He.

Then, he did two things.

First, he ordered people to quickly pass the news here to the Han army, so that the Han army could launch a frontal attack and attract the main force of the Yellow Turban army for him.

Second, he ordered people to put a considerable amount of excretion aids in the meals provided to Xu He and his subordinates.

Afterwards, Fei Zhan hosted a banquet for Xu He and his subordinates as a witness of their reconciliation.

Xu He originally thought that everything was settled here, but after the feast with Fei Zhan, Xu He and his subordinates were so dizzy that they couldn't straighten up, lost all their strength, and half their lives.

As the saying goes, a good man can't hold back three splashes, after one after another, it's not Xu He and others who feel that something is wrong. Even if Fei Zhan's steel knife is placed on Xu He's neck, Xu He is powerless to resist.

His legs were weak, his body was weak, he only had the energy to breathe, and he lost the energy to sit upright.

"why?"

Xu He, who was blue-faced, looked weakly at Fei Zhan, who had a look of pity and mockery.

"It's very simple, because you can't see the current situation clearly, and you can't see the ambition of General Liu to swallow the world, so I came here. I thought you were useful, but now it seems that you are clearly a disaster. The imperial army has already arrived, and once it comes, it will not leave.

The situation has changed, and the imperial court is going to strictly manage Yangzhou. If I don’t want to be exterminated and want to live a good life, I have to cooperate with the imperial court. Now the imperial court has given me face and respected me. If I can’t grasp this opportunity and miss this opportunity, it will be too late to regret. "

Xu He felt very painful.

Both physical and psychological pain.

He never expected that in just a few days, Fei Zhan hooked up with the Han army. Now that the man is a knife and he is a fish, what should we do, how can we turn the tables?

Sima Ju and the others, can they make a comeback?

However, Fei Zhan was a kind person. He couldn't bear Xu He's physical and psychological pain and worry about the Laolu Yellow Turban Army, so he killed him, ending his suffering.

Then, he cut off Xu He's head and sent people to the Han army camp as a "vote certificate" for the Han army.
