In the early hours of the morning, Tai Chi Hall.
Even the Son of Heaven's cave room was disturbed by urgent information, and the civil and military officials who were summoned naturally did not dare to slack off, and they all came to the Taiji Hall to participate in the court meeting as quickly as possible.
The civil officials are on the left, led by Situ Luzhi, and down are Sikong Kong Rong, Taichangqing Liu Ji, Tingwei Lingjianye Taishou Lu Kang, Zhongshu Ling Wang Lang, and Jiangdong Tuntian Envoy Xu Guangqi.
Further down are the relatively low-ranking civil officials, except for a few imperial histories who are responsible for supervising the impeachment, most of the others are subordinate officials of the Three Princes.
Because the rank of the military general is relatively low, the highest is only Qin Qiong, who worships General Zhennan, in order not to lag too far behind the rank of the civilian official, so the Taiwei Huang Wan leads the row of military generals.
After all, the Taiwei is the nominal supreme military commander among the hundred officials, and he can still get along with the generals.
Standing below Qin Qiong were General Anbei, Guannei Hou Xue Rengui, and then down were Pingdong General Zhou Tai, Forbidden Army Commander Liao Hua, Miscellaneous General Ling Cao, and generals Lu Wenlong, Zheng Chenggong, Ma Zhong and others.
After all the civil and military officials arrived, Liu Wei, who was sitting on the high Luan platform, raised the fold in his hand: "This is an urgent document of 800 miles just sent by Wei Wenchang's envoy from Beihai Kingdom, and the secretaries will circulate it to each other to see what countermeasures there are."
Zheng He took the document from the Son of Heaven, carefully retreated from the Luantai, and handed over the recital to Huang Wan, so that the civil and military officials could circulate it to each other.
Half a month ago, Liu Yu's son Liu He led Yan Rou and Xian Yu to gather tens of thousands of supporters in Shanggu County under the slogan of revenge for Liu Yu, and united with tens of thousands of cavalry led by King Wuhuan Qiao to defeat Gongsun Zhan's general Zou Dan in Yuyang, and beheaded him with more than 10,000 heads.
Then he marched south with great momentum, approaching Jixian County, the seat of Beiping County, Gongsun Zhan's hometown.
Under the tremendous pressure of Liu He and the Wuhuan coalition army, Gongsun Zhan could only give up the battle for Qingzhou and ordered Tian Yu, who was stationed in Jinan, to lead 20,000 horses to the north at night to relieve the siege of Beiping.
Seeing the fire in Gongsun Zhan's backyard, Yuan Shao was overjoyed.
Under the planning of Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others, he ordered his eldest son Yuan Tandu to lead Zhang He and Gao Lan, two generals, with Guo Tu and Xin Ping as military advisors, to lead 50,000 horses to the east and encroach on Gongsun Zhan's territory in Qingzhou.
Yuan Tan met a man who called himself Xiao Tongzi Maha in the plains, and saw that he was skilled in martial arts and could chase the tiger with his bare hands, and he couldn't help but be shocked, so he worshiped him as a vanguard general and led his troops straight to Jinan.
Xiao Maha led his troops to storm the Dongping Tomb of the Jinan State Administration, and took the lead in the city, capturing Tian Kai, the minister of Jinan appointed by Gongsun Zhan.
Yuan's army won a complete victory and easily took the entire territory of Jinan.
Yuan Tanqi opened victoriously, continued to lead the army to the east, and under the separate attack of Xiao Maha, Zhang He, and Gao Lan, the Qi State controlled by Gongsun Zhan, the Le'an State defended by the Yellow Turban Army, and the Beihai State defended by Wei Yan was approached.
Knowing that Yuan Tan was in Qingzhou, Tian Feng and Fu Zhu once again suggested to Yuan Shao: they should do their best to march to Qingzhou, take Donglai County and Beihai State in one go, and completely expel the three forces of Liu Wei, Gongsun Zhan, and the Yellow Turban Army from Qingzhou, so as to achieve complete control over Qingzhou.
Then they pursued the million yellow turbans from Qingzhou into Yanzhou to the southwest.
Yuan Shao in this period was not as dim as he was in the later period, and he was deeply encouraged by the momentum of his eldest son Yuan Tan at this time.
After listening to the advice of Fu Zhi and Tian Feng, he left the judge, Feng Ji, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong and others to assist the second son Yuan Xi to garrison the old nest in Jizhou.
He took Yan Liang, Liyi, Gao Gan, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xu You, Xun Chen and others to raise 60,000 troops, and then entered Qingzhou and launched a plan to comprehensively seize Qingzhou's territory.
Yuan Shao led his army south from the plains, and took the lead in defeating 300,000 Yellow Turban thieves in Taishan County, which was subordinate to Yanzhou, and incorporated 50,000 strong and strong from them, and then sent people to dismiss the old and weak women and children to Bohai, Pingyuan, Wei County and other places to enrich the population.
Fu Zhi once again suggested to Yuan Shao that he adopt a combination of soft and hard methods to force down the Taishan Kou entrenched in Taishan County.
And personally went out as a lobbyist, with a three-inch incorruptible tongue, successfully persuaded Sun Guan, Yin Li, Wu Dun, and Chang Feng to lead the four thieves to surrender, so that Yuan Shao successfully incorporated 40,000 Taishan thieves.
Wei Yan learned that Yuan Tan's army was pressing the border in Beihai, so he personally led 30,000 troops out of the city with Guan Sheng and Hua Rong to meet the enemy, and fought with Yuan Tan's troops in Guangxian, and the battle was unfavorable.
Guan Sheng and Hua Rong were both injured in front of Xiao Maha's formation, and Wei Yan had no choice but to retreat to Beihai Guozhi County.
Ambushes were set up along the way to delay the siege of Yuan's army, but it was expected that it would only be delayed for six or seven days.
Therefore, a messenger was sent to Jinling for help.
"The situation in Beihai is critical, Wei Yan is alone in Qingzhou, and he is in danger, what do you think?"
After the civil and military officials almost understood the war in Qingzhou, Liu Wei cleared his throat and asked loudly.
Kong Rong took the lead: "There are 800,000 people in Beihai, the people are simple, and the land is fertile.
Let the people of Beihai bathe in the mighty imperial grace" Liu Ji stood up and disagreed, holding the wat board in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, in your opinion, Yuan Shao poured all his strength into Qingzhou, and his morale was high.
Moreover, there is Liu Biao in Jingbei and Sun Jian in Jingnan, and the relationship has deteriorated, so it is not appropriate to march north.
It's better for Your Majesty to repair the book to Wei Yan, let him temporarily lead the troops to withdraw from Qingzhou, and try to recover the lost territory in the future."
Giving up the land in his hands to others, this is unacceptable to Liu Wei, and the more important drama county is Wang Meng, who has just been summoned, if he gives up the Beihai Kingdom, maybe Wang Meng will be disappointed in himself, and it may not be necessary to switch to other princes swept his gaze to Huang Wan and Lu Zhi: "What do the two Aiqing think?"
Lu Zhi said: "The minister does not agree with Liu Taichang's opinion, Liu Biao and Sun Jianju are both hostile, but Jingnan is barren, and the total population of the four counties is only more than one million, and the successor is weak.
And Liu Biao is just a dog guarding the land, there are people and horses on all sides, and it is also difficult to make a difference, compared to Yuan Shaolai, it is just a disease of scabies" After a pause, he said: "Yuan Shao is different, after he became famous at home and abroad after the fourth and third dukes, there are many heroes who are attached."
Jizhou, which is already wealthy, has more than 4 million people under its rule.
If he occupies the entire territory of Qingzhou again, or even goes south to occupy part of the land of Yanzhou, it will become a problem for his henchmen, so the old minister has the courage to implore His Majesty to send a large army north to Qingzhou to curb the rise of Yuan Shao."
"Lu Situ is reasonable, and the minister also thinks so" Huang Wan also deeply agreed with Lu Zhi's analysis, and said: "Your Majesty, since the incident in Qingzhou started last year, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban has been coerced by women, children, old and young along the way, as many as more than one million people, if Yuan Shao is all captured, it will definitely make it like a tiger."
Therefore, the minister also implored His Majesty to send troops to Qingzhou, first, to relieve the siege of Beihai, second, to contain Yuan Shao, and third, to capture the Yellow Turban population and distribute it to the two counties of Jian'an and Luling in the south, to reclaim the land, develop the cultivated fields, and strengthen the foundation of Jiangdong."
Liu Bowen still insisted on his opinion: "What Huang Taiwei and Lu Situ said is reasonable, but I heard that Luoyang has besieged Chang'an with Liu Bei and Ma Teng, and Dong Zhuoyu's party is about to fall."
If the Western Liang army is destroyed, the Luoyang army will inevitably go east out of Wuguan and attack Wancheng with Liu Biao.

If Sun Jian goes down the river again and goes straight to the east of the river, our side will definitely be attacked on all sides.
The situation is likely to be in trouble, so in my opinion, we should abandon Beihai first, not fight for the gains and losses of one county and one place, and wait for Sun Jian and Liu Biao to be cut off first, and then gradually advance to the north, which is the best policy."
After listening to the debate between Huang Wan, Lu Zhi and Liu Bowen, Liu Wei fell into deep thought.
The current situation is indeed tricky, if the main army goes north to compete with Yuan Shao for Qingzhou, if the strategic goal can be achieved, it will achieve twice the result with half the effort.
First, it can curb Yuan Shao's strong rise, second, it can gain a firm foothold in the north, and third, it can also gain a large number of people.
If the above three strategic goals can be achieved, it will inevitably lay a solid foundation for dominating the world in the future.
But just like Liu Bowen's analysis, if Liu Xie, Liu Biao, and Sun Jian jointly attack, their rear will suffer a huge test.
As the governor of Jiangbei, Yue Fei was able to mobilize nearly 100,000 people, with Liu Ye and Chen Qingzhi to help him give advice, and Yang Zaixing, Gao Changgong, Ji Ling, Lu Meng, Dong Xi and other generals under his command were directly under orders; In addition, there are local civil officials such as Xun Yu and Di Renjie as follow-ups, and it is estimated that there is no problem in carrying the Luoyang Army and Liu Biao's Army for two years a year.
Liu Wei was not worried about the four counties of Jiangbei, and the only thing that worried him was Sun Jian's army in Jingnan.
Although the population of the four counties of Jingnan is sparse, the number of men under Sun Jian's command has expanded to seventy or eighty thousand, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are also gradually growing, plus Sun Jian himself is brave and good at fighting, good at using soldiers, and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, Chen Wu and others as wings.
If he saw his main army going north to Qingzhou to fight with Yuan Shao, Sun Jian would lead his troops down the river and smash his lair.
Although Chaisang in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River had 30,000 naval divisions under the command of Gan Ning and Jiang Qin and 10,000 army guards the gate, there were 20,000 troops of Li Yan stationed in Nanchang four hundred miles to the south.
But if Sun Jian's army took advantage of his back to Qingzhou and attacked with all his might, how long Gan Ning could carry it, Liu Wei was not very optimistic But if you don't dare to go north to Qingzhou, the first will lose the Beihai Kingdom, the second will allow Yuan Shao to rise strongly, and the third will miss the opportunity to capture millions of yellow turbans.
What's more important is that it is possible to lose Wang Meng who has just been summoned, which is the most unacceptable thing for Liu Wei The choice in front of Liu Wei is undoubtedly very difficult, and if there is a slight mistake, it is likely to fall into a predicament from which he will never recover.
But if you can seize the opportunity, you may be able to create a new situation and reap huge benefits "How is it good?"
Liu Wei's eyes narrowed into a slit, scanning the civil and military ministers in the Taiji Palace, only hating that his subordinates were still not enough.
At this time, a few more top strategists will help him analyze how good the situation should be t1706231537:
