"You'd rather die than surrender. You have some bearing.”
"What bearing? That's because Chen Gong and Cao Cao have too deep a conflict. Even if we surrender, Cao Cao won't put us in an important position.”
Among the commoners and scholars, three to five good friends gathered together to chat.
"Chen Gong's ability is indeed not bad, but he is too loyal. If he uses it well, he will be stabbed in the back.”
The various dukes looked at the frozen scene and fell into deep thought.
Cao Cao sighed, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
The conflict between him and Chen Gong was actually the conflict between him and the Yanzhou aristocrats. It had already reached a point where it could not be resolved.
Although many things had yet to happen, it was a fact that he had accidentally killed Lu Boshe's family. It was impossible for him to recruit Chen Gong.
After the Yanzhou gentry saw this scene, they would probably not allow him to control Yanzhou anymore.
This ranking had evolved Chen Gong's future, and it had also indirectly evolved his future.
It increased the difficulty of controlling Yanzhou by more than ten times.
In the Chen family's courtyard in Dongwu Yang, East County, Chen Gong frowned as he looked at the frozen image.
"Did I fail in the end?"
After a long time, he sighed and fell into deep thought.
Lu Bu was a piece of mud that couldn't be helped. Choosing him to fight Cao Cao was a mistake from the beginning.
No, it should be said that it was wrong to choose Cao Cao to resist the Qingzhou Yellow Turban from the beginning.
But if they didn't choose Cao Cao, who would they choose to resist the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou?
Luoyang, Marquis Wen's residence. Lu Bu frowned as he looked at the frozen image.
"If Chen Gong is captured, what about me? Did he escape or is he dead?"
The screen did not play his ending, and the mysterious voice did not mention his ending, which made him a little anxious.
At this moment, Chu Feng's voice sounded again.
"Chen Gong prioritized the interests of the aristocrats. He spent his entire life fighting for the interests of the aristocrats in Yanzhou.
He betrayed Cao Cao because Cao Cao had touched the interests of the aristocrats in Yanzhou.
He wanted to rebel against Lu Bu because he found Lu Bu useless and wanted to take control of Xuzhou to fight Cao Cao.
From Cao Cao to Lu Bu, Chen Gong was not in a relationship of master and minister, but more like a cooperative relationship.
He invited Cao Cao to take over Yanzhou so that he could use Cao Cao to resist the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou and protect the interests of the aristocrats in Yanzhou.
Inviting Lu Bu to take over Yanzhou was to use Lu Bu's hands to take back Yanzhou from Cao Cao's hands. It was also to protect the interests of the aristocrats in Yanzhou.
From the beginning to the end, this was a contest between the aristocrats and the dukes.
It was obvious that Chen Gong had lost and the Yanzhou aristocrats had fallen silent.
But no matter what, leading Cao Cao into Yanzhou had laid a solid foundation for Cao Cao's rise.
Rank 17, Chen Gong.

The first round of the Advisor Ranking was announced, and the next round would be in three days.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the screen in the sky disappeared into thin air, as if it had never appeared.
"Three more days? It's been too long."
"I really want to know the glorious achievements of those strategists behind us.”
"I wonder if the number one on the Advisor Board will be Li Ru under Dong Zhuo.”
The people, scholars, and others all discussed among themselves.
In Bohai Prefecture, Yuan Shao summoned Yan Liang and Wen Chou and said,""You two, go and call Zhang He and Gao Lan over.”
The announcement of the four strategists on the first ranking list not only allowed him to see the evolution of the four strategists 'lives, but he also saw many other futures.
In those four scenes, Zhang He and Gao Lan had betrayed him in the end. Among the generals, the only ones he could trust were Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
Zhang He and Gao Lan, together with Yan Liang and Wen Chou, were known as the Four Pillars of Hebei Province. Although their strength was not comparable to Yan Liang and Wen Chou, they were not too far off. It would be safer for the two of them to go together.
Yan Liang thought for a moment and asked,"My lord, what if they resist?"”
Yuan Shao's face darkened and he said coldly,"If you dare to resist, kill without mercy."”
"Yes!"
Yan Liang and Wen Chou accepted the order and turned to leave.
After the two of them left, Yuan Shao called over the commander of his personal guards and said in a deep voice,"Bring your troops to fetch Xu You and Dong Zhao. If they dare to resist, kill them without mercy.”
"Yes!"
The commander of the personal guards accepted the order and turned to leave.
Not long after, Yan Liang and Wen Chou arrived at the prefecture with Zhang He and Gao Lan.
Judging from their state, they didn't resist.
"Greetings, my lord."
Zhang He and Gao Lan stepped forward to greet him and then said in unison,"We are loyal to our lord and will never betray him.”
They naturally knew why Yuan Shao had called them over, so they had firmly expressed their stance and loyalty.
Yuan Shao looked at the two of them and said,"If that picture is really our future, I won't blame you for defecting."
I can only blame Guo Tu for sowing discord and myself for listening to calumny.
Don't worry, I won't let the future that I already know happen.”
To be able to make Yuan Shao say such words was indeed beyond Zhang He and Gao Lan's expectations.
The two of them quickly knelt on one knee and said solemnly,"Please rest assured, my lord. We will never betray you.”
"Okay, go ahead."
Yuan Shao nodded and let the two leave.
Zhang He and Gao Lan's abilities were not bad. If he wanted to plot against Jizhou, he had to keep them.
"My lord,"
At this moment, the commander of the personal guards returned with only Xu You by his side." My lord, Dong Zhao has already left early.”
Yuan Shao's expression changed and he said coldly," He must have lost his allegiance to Cao Cao. Quickly send someone to chase after him in the direction of Chenliu in Yanzhou. I want to see him alive and his corpse dead."”
