Chapter 527: The Princes' Reaction


In the third year of Chuping (192), it was another turbulent year.

At the end of March, Wang Yun and Lu Bu joined forces to kill Dong Zhuo and destroy Dong Zhuo's three clans.

Later, Wang Yun took control of the government and Lu Bu took charge of the military affairs, stabilizing the turbulent situation and gradually restoring the operation of the court.

At the end of April, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and Li Meng were afraid of being executed, so they sent troops from Xiliang to attack Chang'an and rose up to resist.

In late May, the Xiliang army captured Chang'an, killed Wang Yun, and seized control of the imperial court.

The news spread throughout the world, and the princes were shocked.

Frontier Fortress, Youzhou In the Battle of Jieqiao, Gongsun Zan was defeated by Yuan Shao, and then Gongsun Zan was defeated again and again, and had to return to Youzhou and Peiping.

At the same time, Yan Gang, the governor of Jizhou under Gongsun Zan, was killed by Yuan Shao.

Although Gongsun Zan was defeated by Yuan Shao and lost the right to compete for Jizhou, he still stationed troops in Youzhou and occupied a state.

His power was no less powerful than that of Yuan Shao.

Beiping, Taishou Mansion.

Gongsun Zan sat on the main seat, with a group of advisers and generals below him.

Among them, the counselors were mainly Tian Yu, and the military generals were mainly Gongsun Zan's younger brother Gongsun Fan.

Tian Yu sat in the first place on the left and said seriously: "My lord, news has come back from Chang'an that Wang Yun has been killed, Lu Bu has been forced to leave, and Fan Chou and others have taken control of the government."

After hearing this, Gongsun Zan laughed loudly and said loudly: "This year, Chang'an is really in chaos.

A few years ago, Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an in order to avoid the allies of the princes, which caused a lot of chaos in Chang'an.

Only then did Dong Zhuo move the capital to Chang'an.

Within a few months, Dong Zhuo unexpectedly However, he was killed by Wang Yun and Lu Bu.

Unexpectedly, more than a month later, Wang Yun was killed again.

Now Fan Chou, Li Meng and others are in control of the government, and a group of common men will run amok.

It won't take long.

Someone else will take their place.”

He had a playful look on his face, like a spectator at a play.

In today's world, princes are rising together and wars are frequent.

Fan Chou only temporarily captured Chang'an.

Gongsun Zan felt that Fan Chou would be destroyed by others in a short time.

Therefore, Gongsun Zan believed that the emperor was a hot potato, and whoever took it would take it.

Harm to whom.

He stayed in Youzhou and watched the play as a bystander, enjoying himself very much.

Tian Yu was very talented, but he saw the advantages in it and suggested: "My lord, although the emperor is a double-edged sword, if he controls it well, he is a good thing and can achieve great things.

My lord, why don't you send troops to attack Fan Chou?

Support the emperor, control the emperor, and command the princes of the world."

After hearing this, Gongsun Zan shrank his head and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, the emperor is a disaster.

We should stay in Youzhou and watch the show quietly.

Haven't you seen the fate of Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun?

" After Tian Yu heard this, he suddenly fell silent and stopped talking.

Can such a person achieve great things?

Jizhou, Yecheng, Zhoumufu.

In the hall, Yuan Shao sat on the main seat, and below him sat Xu You, Shen Pei, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Ju Shou, and Tian Feng.

Among these counselors, Xu You, Feng Ji, and Guo Tu were Yuan Shao's early counselors, and Jushou, Tian Feng, and Shenpei were counselors recruited by Yuan Shao from Han Fu after he captured Jizhou.

Although the three of them followed Yuan Shao in the end, they were famous and occupied a place under Yuan Shao's command.

The six counselors were all loyal to Yuan Shao and all knew Yuan Shao's ambitions.

Yuan Shao glanced at the people in the hall and said: "Everyone already knows the news about Chang'an.

Now that Wang Yun has been killed and villains such as Fan Chou, Li Meng, and Zhang Ji have succeeded, what do you think?"

When Xu You heard this, he immediately stood up and said: "My lord, the more chaos in Chang'an, the better it will be for my lord.

The Xiliang army is united on the surface, but after taking Chang'an, there will inevitably be a power struggle.

When the time comes, there will be civil strife in the Xiliang army."

The emperor may be killed in the war.

Once the emperor dies, the whole group will be leaderless, which is a great opportunity for the lord to show his talents. " After Xu You finished speaking, a proud look appeared on his face.

When Yuan Shao heard this, his face also showed joy.

As Xu You said, what Yuan Shao wanted was for the emperor to be killed.

Only when the emperor dies can he ascend the throne legitimately.

Last year, Yuan Shao sent people to Liu Yu and proposed to make Liu Yu emperor.

In this way, Yuan Shao can control the government and intimidate the world.

However, Liu Yu refused to cooperate and Yuan Shao's plan failed.

Now Chang'an is in chaos.

As long as Liu Xie is killed by the rebels and all the heirs of Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong die, there will be no legitimate emperor in the world.

At that time, all the heroes in the world will rise together, and this will be Yuan Shao's opportunity.

At this time, Tian Feng stood up, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, Feng thinks that sitting idly by and watching is not the best policy."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao leaned forward slightly and asked: "Yuan Haotian Fengzi, what do you have in mind?"

Tian Feng was originally an adviser under Han Fu.

He was upright and was not reused by Han Fu.

After surrendering to Yuan Shao, he was appointed by Yuan Shao as Jizhou Biejia and became one of Yuan Shao's advisers.

Although Tian Feng has an upright character, his abilities are outstanding, so Yuan Shao attaches great importance to Tian Feng and entrusts him with important tasks.

Tian Feng said loudly: "My lord, instead of waiting for the emperor to be killed, why not send troops to welcome the little emperor back, hold the little emperor in the hands of the lord, and make Yecheng the capital.

Wouldn't it be better?"

After hearing this, Jushou also stood up and clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family have disciples and former officials all over the world.

My lord is from the Yuan family and has a noble status.

Moreover, my lord is benevolent and virtuous.

His reputation is spread throughout the world, so he has the right to welcome him back."

Emperor."

After a pause, Jushou continued: "The Han Dynasty was in decline, the court was in crisis, and the royal family's ancestral temple was burned down.

The princes in the world's prefectures and counties also obeyed and disobeyed the court's orders.

None of the princes used the world's society.

Ji is the most important thing.

Now that the lord has occupied Jizhou, with strong soldiers and horses, and the scholars have joined him, if he welcomes the emperor from the west and establishes his capital in Yecheng, he can take advantage of the emperor and command the princes to attack the disobedient people in the world.

Who can resist the lord's army?

" Ju Shou spoke more tactfully than Tian Feng, not so directly.

He first flattered Yuan Shao and curried favor with Yuan Shao, and then expressed his thoughts, which made Yuan Shao very comfortable after hearing it.

After Yuan Shao heard this, he had the idea of ​​​​sending troops to welcome Liu Xie back.

He glanced at Jushu and Tian Feng.

Jushu's suggestion was the same as Tian Feng's, but Jushu was more detailed and his strategy was better than Xu You's.

It is naturally better to wait passively than to take the initiative.

Seeing Yuan Shao's move, Feng Ji immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Lord Ju only talked about the advantages of welcoming the emperor, but did not explain the disadvantages.

If my lord welcomes the emperor, there will be constraints in everything.

Not only that, all the ministers of the court followed. , they will definitely fight for power with the lord, and when Jizhou falls into turmoil, won't it be even more troublesome?

" After Feng Ji finished speaking, Guo Tu continued: "My lord, you cannot welcome back the emperor.

If you welcome back the emperor, your lord will not be able to stand on his own feet.

Because the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family are loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, does my lord want to betray his ancestors?"

, be that usurper A self-reliant person, even if the lord is the founder of the country, he will be reviled by future generations.

When the time comes, the lord's reputation will be ruined.

Such a strategy is not advisable.

The lord will let the young emperor stay in Chang'an and allow the Xiliang army to riot.

That’s the right thing to do.”

This sentence comes to the key point at once.

The Yuan family has been loyal ministers for generations.

When it comes to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao uses the reputation of the Yuan family to recruit scholars.

If he brazenly usurps the Han Dynasty and establishes himself, he will definitely be spurned by the scholars.

Therefore, Yuan Shao did not have the courage to depose the emperor and usurp the Han Dynasty to establish itself.

In this way, he can only wait for the emperor to be killed before he has a chance to stand on his own feet.

Yuan Shao didn't speak, but there was already a mess below.

Tian Feng and Ju Shou were in the same camp, and they kept arguing in order to please the emperor; Xu You was in his own group, and although he was a loner, he joined forces with Guo Tu and Feng Ji to refute Tian Feng this time; only Shen Pei stood by and watched.

Doesn't speak.

It was very lively with people coming and going from both sides.

The hall seemed to be a vegetable market, with constant quarrels.

Yuan Shao looked at the chaos of counselors, his head was as big as a penny, and he felt very difficult to deal with.

Historically, this is how Cao Cao evaluated Yuan Shao's indecisiveness.

When Yuan Shao had too many counselors, it was difficult for him to make a choice, because what everyone said was reasonable, and what everyone said was reasonable.

Yuan Shao didn't know what to do.

Perhaps, if Yuan Shao only had one or two counselors, The situation was better.

Yuan Shao had many advisers under his command, but they became a burden.

Yuan Shao waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, let's put the matter on hold, no need to discuss it, no need to discuss it anymore."

He waved his hand and dismissed everyone.

Yanzhou, the Prefectural Mufu.

In the hall, Cao Cao was sitting on the main seat, and below him were a group of Cao Cao's advisers.

Sitting in the first place on the left is Xun Yu, and in the first place on the right is Xi Zhicai.

Below are Mao Jie, Man Chong, Liu Ye, Zao Di and others who Cao Cao had just acquired in Yanzhou.

Cao Cao looked solemn and said: "Now the Xiliang army is causing trouble for the government.

The emperor is in trouble and loyal ministers are killed.

I am ready to raise troops to rescue and defeat the Xiliang army.

What do you think?"

Cao Cao was the governor of Dongjun at first.

With the assistance of Xun Yu, he used generals such as Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun to successfully capture Yanzhou and became the herdsman of Yanzhou, the shepherd and defender of one side.

When he was in Yanzhou, Cao Cao not only recruited counselors such as Mao Jie and Man Chong, but also generals Yu Jin, Li Dian, and Le Jin.

It can be said that there are many talents under his command, making him the overlord of the party.

As soon as Cao Cao opened his mouth, he expressed his inner thoughts.

Xun Yu was loyal to the Han Dynasty.

After hearing this, he immediately agreed: "My lord is right.

The emperor is in trouble and it is time to send troops to rescue him.

Yu agreed with my lord's decision and sent troops to Chang'an."

Xi Zhicai shook his head and said: "My lord, no, the army has just entered Yanzhou, and the foundation is unstable.

To the east of Yanzhou, there are Qingzhou Yellow Turban soldiers raging, to the north, Yuan Shao's army is watching; to the west, the Xiliang army is stationed in Luoyang, and to the south, Yuan Shu is waiting for an opportunity.

Move.

Although the lord has occupied Yanzhou and has a foundation, it is still in danger and surrounded by dangers, so we must not send troops easily."

After Xun Yu heard this, his expression darkened and he sighed slightly.

As soon as he heard Xi Zhicai's words, he knew that he could not send troops to Chang'an.

Hearing this, Mao Jie said: "My lord, what Master Xun and Master Xi said are both reasonable and can be adopted.

But the strategy needs to be changed.

As Master Xi said, the master's occupation of Yanzhou has an unstable foundation, so We need to quell the internal troubles in Yanzhou and get rid of the threat of Qingzhou soldiers.

After the lord's foundation is stable, we can send troops to welcome the emperor to Yanzhou, obey the emperor's orders and attack the princes of the world.

In this way, the Han Dynasty can flourish."

After hearing this, Cao Cao happily put his hands on his hands and smiled and said: "Xian Mao's words are reasonable.

You are right.

We will not send troops for the time being.

We will first quell the internal troubles and rectify the sergeants.

When we are strong enough, we will send troops to welcome the emperor back."

"The Lord is wise" In the hall, everyone shouted loudly.

Cao Cao stroked his short beard under his chin, a smile appeared on his slightly dark cheeks, and he thought to himself: First, first, it seems I have to take the first step.

Of course, no one in the hall knew what Cao Cao was thinking.

Unlike Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and others, Liu Bei was helpless and unable to send troops.

As for Sun Jian, he was busy training his navy and preparing to conquer the land east of the Yangtze River, and it was impossible to send troops to rescue him.

However, Liu Yu, Liu Yan, Liu Dai, Liu Yao and other Han clan clansmen had never thought of sending troops.

All they wanted to do was preserve themselves and did not pay attention to Liu Xie's ideas. s: Three guaranteed updates are completed, please collect and send flowers
