Chapter 786 To deceive those foxes?
"My lord, although you value Liu Bei, in Liu Bei's eyes, you don't seem to have any intention of attacking the Ma family." After hearing Ma Chao's plan, Duanmu Ruoyu couldn't help shaking his head slightly, and said, "Liu Bei has become the Xuzhou shepherd. After that, in order to ensure that Xuzhou will always be in my hands in the future, I did carry out a series of diplomatic tactics. It's just..."

"It's just that the Ma family was not included in the list?" Ma Chao chuckled after hearing this, and then wanted to explain, but after thinking for a while, he still said: "Then Liu Bei wants to ensure that Xuzhou is in his hands today, tomorrow, and forever. What kind of diplomatic activities did Liu Bei carry out to consolidate the regime?"

"The first step is to recommend Kong Rong as the governor of Qingzhou." Duanmu Ruoyu pointed to the Beihai area on the sand table simulation map, and said succinctly.

"Well, this is expected, it belongs to Liu Bei's reciprocation."

As a governor of Yongzhou, Ma Chao naturally knew that after becoming a governor of the state, the officials of the Han Dynasty had the power to recommend and appoint high-level local cadres.In his first show of using this power, he recommended his new good friend Kong Rong, Prime Minister of Beihai, to be promoted to the governor of Qingzhou. , so that you can sleep soundly at night.

In the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, it is destined to be a luxury for many people to sleep steadily.It is indeed easy to understand that Liu Bei did this first.Therefore, what Ma Chao is waiting for is the 'second step' that Duanmu Ruoyu said.Because he knows that the good show usually comes later.

Sure enough, seeing Ma Chao's lack of interest, Duanmu Ruoyu waved his slender hand, pointed to the area of ​​Jizhou, drew a virtual circle, circled Yuan Shao's range, and said, "Liu Bei's second step is to Send people to Yecheng to meet Yuan Shao, and bring a request for alliance."

At this time, Yuan Shao had already taken the initiative in the war against Gongsun Zan, and his strength was further enhanced.Hugging thighs means hugging thick ones, everyone knows this.There is nothing wrong with Liu Bei's decision to join the leading brother.It is estimated that the request form I brought was to report to Yuan Shao the ins and outs of Liu Bei's succession as Xuzhou Mu, and by the way, expressed his desire to strengthen contacts with Yuan Shao to cultivate feelings and establish a revolutionary friendship so as to help each other.

Although Liu Bei fought against Yuan Shao for a long time when he was working for Gongsun Zan, everyone except those who were in the water understood that there are no permanent friends or enemies, only permanent interests.Especially in troubled times, making one more friend would at least reduce one enemy, and if this friend could still help out at critical moments, it would be a real fortune.

However, according to Ma Chao's opinion, whether Yuan Shao will agree to Liu Bei is still a matter of opinion.After all, Ma Chao and Yuan Shao had no intersection, and from the point of view of historical style, Yuan Shao didn't dare to say much, but he definitely had some arrogance.What's more, Liu Bei showed the virtue of being a mother in a blink of an eye. Ma Chao estimated that even if Liu Bei could be courted by Yuan Shao, he would inevitably be ridiculed.

But to Ma Chao's surprise, Duanmu Ruoyu actually said that Yuan Shao readily accepted Liu Bei's invitation, and immediately expressed his support for Liu Bei's succession as Xuzhou Mu. The people are willing to support him, that is what everyone expects, good deeds, I, Yuan, support him with all my hands."

Since then, Liu Bei has become Yuan Shao's little brother.At this time, Yuan Shao was busy expanding to Youzhou to get Gongsun Zan, and Cao Cao was still cleaning up Lu Bu to stabilize the Yanzhou base.Coupled with this level of alliance, Liu Bei can temporarily not have to worry about the two of them getting on with him.

However, if Liu Bei didn't come to Ma Chao, Ma Chao might not let Liu Bei go.Because Liu Bei can also see that the Ma family is beyond reach and has no real connection with him.

"Yuan Shao really impressed me this time. The current alliance with Liu Bei is really a profitable business. But this business, our Ma family has to get involved." Ma Chao also stretched out his hand. Pointing to Yuan Shu and Cao Cao on the map with his own hand, he said, "No matter how you say it, Liu Bei is afraid that Cao Cao will make trouble for him after turning around. Yuan Shu in the south may come to him at any time. And we and Both Cao Cao and Yuan Shu have small grievances, and an enemy's enemy is a friend. Especially Liu Bei, a friend who holds my two friends..."

As Ma Chao said inscrutablely, both Duanmu Ruoyu and Diao Chan knew that the "two friends" Ma Chao referred to were Zhao Yun and Tai Shici.

"It's always necessary for a younger brother to show his sincerity when he seeks refuge with his elder brother. But if the elder brother goes to find the younger brother in person, then Liu Bei will be ashamed, no matter how ignorant of current affairs it is." Zhao Yun, who has been away for more than half a year, has not brought Tai Shi with him. After the kindness returned, Ma Chao was also a little apprehensive about Liu Bei's ability to employ people: "I'd like to go to Xuzhou to see what kind of ecstasy soup Liu Bei poured into Zilong, so that Zilong still hasn't returned for more than half a year!"

"Since my husband has all these meanings, but my husband's trip to Xuzhou must be because of my decision..." Diao Chan stroked his fingers, and Ma Chao's going to Xuzhou had political significance, and it was also a matter of righteousness and officialdom. The bondage of the hat chair.Such three floors are enough to move Ma Chao, the hussar general, to go there in person.

But Ma Chao entered Xuzhou so blatantly, but the route was difficult to decide: if he chose the shortest distance between two points and one line, not to mention Yanzhou, which has gone through the war and turmoil in the middle, Cao Cao in the east may take the opportunity to destroy Ma Chao; Road to Yuzhou, not to mention the treacherous road, also had to pass through Yuan Shu's territory; and to detour from Jizhou, you had to cross the river at least twice, and the time was too much.Moreover, Yuan Shao has always been concerned about the Ma family's detention of Tian Feng...

It can be said that Ma Chao is now in the body of Wancheng, and his every move can affect the situation of the big man.Therefore, forming an alliance with Liu Bei seems simple, but if Ma Chao goes there in person, it would be a bit outrageous.

Diaochan and Duanmu Ruoyu looked at the sand table simulation map for a long time, but they couldn't find a safe route.But Ma Chao didn't take it seriously, and smiled slyly beside the two women: "Who said I'm going to Xuzhou in an open and honest manner? I turned into a guard and went with the Ma family's etiquette department. Don't those princes dare not give the Ma family a face?" ?”

"Husband, although this strategy is feasible..." After pondering for a moment, Diao Chan still agreed with Ma Chao's method.However, she still worried: "The concubine can explain the matter in the backyard to my aunt and all the sisters. But above the court, those who are civil and military, must not agree with the husband to go to Xuzhou in person."

After Ma Chao heard this, the hope on his face collapsed: Yes, now that the Ma family is getting bigger and bigger, Ma Chao has more scruples and obstacles.When he first entered Chang'an, Ma Chao encountered a lot of civil and military opposition. If it weren't for Jia Laohu's support, it would have been difficult for him to make the trip.

But now it is not the same as before, even though Jia Huli is still strong this time, but Ma Chao can't say clearly about the official hat chair and the locust plague in Yanzhou this year.And without these two points as a basis, even Jia Huhu can only think that his brain is flooded, right?

"It seems that I still need to find a reason to coax the foxes of the Ma family..." Ma Chao scratched his head in frustration, and to be honest, he felt really sad: "It takes a lot to fool those foxes." IQ!!"

However, when Ma Chao saw the news that Liu Xie had also appointed Liu Bei, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately had a vague plan in his mind: "Brother Gao Fushuai, it seems that this time, my buddy will let you be the boss again." It's a shit stick..."
