Chapter 681: A Major Turning Point

"Ye Gucheng, Ximen Blowing Snow, Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, Sikong Picking Stars, the five of you are a team; The nine of you are secretly following, don't show your traces, if you can't bring back the Son of Heaven when Commander Zhao Yun and them can't bring back the Son of Heaven smoothly, you can take action to bring the Son of Heaven back first. ”

"Yes, we will obey the orders of the military advisor!"

Regarding Guo Jia's arrangement, Ye Gucheng's nine people naturally would not disobey, and even Yuan Chang obeyed Guo Jia's arrangement, how could they disobey.

At this time, Yuan Chang stood up and spoke: "You must remember that if you can't do anything, you should take saving your life as the first priority. The Son of Heaven welcomes back Youzhou, but it can make some of Youzhou's actions easier, but it is not worth your life. Therefore, if the situation threatens your life, hand over the Son of Heaven. ”

"This..."

The nine people in Ye Gucheng were a little stunned, of course, the emotion in their hearts was self-evident. In Yuan Chang's eyes, their lives were more precious than the Son of Heaven, and on this point, they knew that they had not entrusted the wrong person to others.

"Why, don't my words work!"

Yuan Chang's face was slightly gloomy, and he said with a little anger. He did not say this to buy people's hearts, but from the bottom of his heart. The existence of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty is indeed helpful to some actions in Youzhou, but the help will not be too great, at most he has a legal name when he implements the new policy, in addition, looking at what Liu Xie has done in history, you will know that there is no other role, and what can be done is to fight for power and profit. first made a cloth edict to scare Liu Bei away, away from the palace, this is a place of right and wrong, however, Liu Xie still did not give up, and conspired with his uncle Dong Cheng and others to kill Cao Cao. Who knew that Dong Cheng's house slave and Dong Cheng's little wife were found to be ambiguous, and after the cane scolded forty boards, the house slave held a grudge and told Cao Cao the news he had overheard, and then, Dong Cheng and several other people were killed, and even Dong Guifei, who was pregnant with Liujia, did not escape; after Dong Cheng and others died, Liu Xie immediately confessed to Cao Cao, saying that he did not know. However, Liu Xie still did not give up, and after making trouble with the queen, he wanted to act again, but the ending was still the same, and then he was forced to marry Cao Cao's daughter and become the queen. Since then, Liu Xie has really died, he can't do it if he doesn't give up, the people who sleep next to the pillow are Cao Cao's daughters, what else can he do. Until he was forced to abdicate, he went to the countryside to become a rich man, and finally died, which can be regarded as a little comfort for his unpeaceful life.

Counting it up, Liu Xie is Yuan Chang's brother-in-law, if Liu Xi and Liu Xie have a deep relationship, Yuan Chang will of course try his best to save Liu Xie. However, Yuan Chang also asked Liu Xi, the two of them are just sisters and brothers in blood, but their relationship is not half a point. Of course, the reason why this was the case was also because of the chaotic situation in the palace at that time. Therefore, to welcome Liu Xie back to Youzhou, if the casualties are not large, Yuan Chang can still accept it, if the casualties are too heavy, Yuan Chang would rather give up. After all, Liu Xie is also a person who can make trouble, and Yuan Chang doesn't want his forces to face this kind of thing all day long.

Speaking of which, Liu Xie is also an unlucky child, if he is in a peaceful era, maybe he can still be a Ming Jun, but in such a troubled era in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, he can only do nothing. In fact, Liu Xie actually had a chance, but neither Liu Xie nor the other party got this opportunity.

And this person is none other than Lu Bu.

At the beginning, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao dragged Lu Bu together to launch a coup d'état in Yanzhou, but they were destroyed by Cao Cao's group. Zhang Miao and his entire clan were completely wiped out, and Chen Gong left his hometown and left the Yanzhou room alone with Lu Bu offline, fled to the Xuzhou room, and went to find a low-level player PK. The main reason for the failure of the Chen Palace was pride. In addition, there were also problems with the army's logistical support, which limited Lü Bu's strategy in Yanzhou. From the first day of the war, Lü Bu's army was always in a state of "no food in his hands, and he was very panicked in his heart", and he was also in the consideration of lack of food, which led to Lü Bu's side taking risks to cheat food, and as a result, he leaked his combat intentions to Xun Yu in advance, and even Lü Bu was plagued by food problems from beginning to end in the Yanzhou Campaign. It can be said that not having enough food and grass supply is Lu Bu's eternal pain. But the pain is over once? Lu Bu, who fled from Yanzhou, was once again injured by the lack of food and grass, and missed another important turning point in his life.

Of course, if according to the original history, Lu Bu has actually been replaced by another fake 'Lu Bu', acting according to the intentions of the Shuntian Alliance. So, it's a twist that's destined to be missed.

Liu Xie, the son of heaven, broke through the pursuit and tearing of the armies of all parties, and fled from Chang'an to Anyi County in Hedong County after a lot of hardships. The home of Liu Xie, the son of heaven, has been destroyed and dilapidated by Dong Zhuo and needs to be renovated. But whoever decorates their home needs a lot of financial and material resources, and the son of heaven is also a human being, just like the common people, he scratches his teeth and flowers when he has no money. Liu Xie couldn't help but look at it, but the ministers and generals who accompanied him all avoided Liu Xie's eyes, either snoring when they suddenly stood up, or quickly lowered their heads to tie their sandals and slippers, and they didn't have time to dodge in a panic and tore the bamboo pieces of the book, saying that they were going to the thatched house when they were going to the toilet.

Liu Xie's eyes seemed to be a meteor shower flying in the sky, and everyone was closing their eyes and making wishes.

Liu Xie was embarrassed to look any further, so he could only pick up the binoculars on his chest and look around, through the battlefields of fighting everywhere, Liu Xie saw Liu Biao in Jingzhou at a glance. Liu Biao has been developing peacefully during this time, rarely burning war in his own territory, and is the largest grain output in each state. The key is to be close to each other and the road is smooth.

Liu Xie sent Zhao Qi, an eighty-year-old minister, to communicate with Liu Biao, hoping that Liu Biao would sponsor food and supplies. (The Book of the Later Han Dynasty (Dong) Cheng sent (Zhao) Qi to Jingzhou to supervise the rent of grain. After all, Liu Biao was a relative of the Han family, and immediately sent a large amount of food, which finally completely solved the problem of food and clothing for the Son of Heaven, and then sent a steady stream of military funds for Liu Xie to reinstall the palace. It is estimated that Liu Biao is also afraid that if he does not agree, in case Zhao Qi touches porcelain and falls to the ground (later Zhao Qizhen rested in Jingzhou).

The rigid need for food and housing was solved, and Liu Xie had to consider the security issue.

Liu Xie first thought of Lu Bu, who helped him pro-government, the hero who allowed him to escape from the hands of Dong Zhuo and Thanos. After all, in Liu Xie's view, Lu Bu is just a reckless man with courage and no strategy, and letting him protect himself is undoubtedly the best candidate. After all, Lu Bu will not have other thoughts, and Liu Xie is still a little pursuing.

Liu Xie personally wrote an edict and sent someone to find Lu Bu and ask him to come to King Qin. You must know that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have been discussing the matter of taking over, not from Liu Xie's initiative to answer. Therefore, Liu Xie's sincere heart is particularly lamentable.

It's just that Liu Xie was disappointed that Lu Bu refused.

If it was the original version of Lu Bu, maybe he would go to King Qin, however, this fake Lu Bu is an impostor, and his actions are all done in accordance with the requirements of the Shuntian Alliance, where will he care about the requirements of your Son of Heaven.

At this time, the fake Lu Bu was on the way to escape from Yanzhou. He is running with his body dragging his heart, and he has no energy left to care about others, and he can't even think about the bioelectricity he needs. This may be an important reason why Lu Bu didn't pick up the Son of Heaven, after all, he just lost Yanzhou, and became a lackey who couldn't go straight to his home because he lost his family, how could he have the ambition to fight again, he always had to find a corner to gnaw two bones and sleep, and then get up to pee and occupy the plate.

At this time, some people will think that everything that Suncheon Alliance does is carried out according to history. So, Lu Bu would not have greeted the Son of Heaven in the first place, what is the difference?

There is one difference, and everything else is left aside, and history as we know it is history 1.0.

Well, from version 2.0 onwards, everything is going according to the intentions of the Suncheon Alliance, version 3.0, to version N.0. Perhaps, the same people or events happen in each version of history, but the general direction of history does not change. Just like Yuan Chang's version of the era, he occupied Youzhou, on the other hand, Yuan Shao occupied Youzhou, perhaps, this is the reason why the Shuntian League did not make a big move, after all, history has not changed too much. However, if Yuan Chang welcomes the Son of Heaven to Youzhou, then history will change dramatically, and the Shuntian League wants to control everything, and it will not work if he doesn't make a move. Besides, Lu Bu, in the original 1.0 version, Lu Bu did not go to meet the Son of Heaven, but who can be sure that the history of version 2.0 and even more versions will not change, Lu Bu will go to meet the Son of Heaven as soon as his brain is pumped, so as to take history away from the direction. And this is also the Shuntian League's desire to get rid of Lu Bu and replace it with a fake Lu Bu to advance the process of history. Some people and some things will not bring great changes to history, and the Shuntian League will not interfere, and sometimes the Shuntian League will naturally not politely intervene in it, which is the reason.

Let's say, why didn't the 1.0 version of Lu Bu go to King Qin? There are still some reasons.

First of all, Lu Bu worked in the imperial court. After He Jin was killed and Dong Zhuo came to power, the Han Dynasty was mainly managed and operated by Shi officials. Lu Bu, who was born in a poor family, was not very comfortable with this bureaucratic system. At the beginning, Wang Yun often despised him, and often threw his face around Lu Bu like an Indian cake. ("Book of the Later Han Dynasty" (Wang Yun) and Su Qingbu, as a swordsman to meet him) Wang Yun looked down on Lu Bu and treated him as a guest, just like that, who is willing to work for you.

Secondly, in terms of interests, although Lu Bu sacrificed his life to protect Liu Xie, his glory was far shorter than the time he later became the target of public criticism. Later, Lu Bu fled abroad, and he did not receive too much courtesy because he was the hero who eradicated Dong Zhuo, and everyone was afraid of his strength, and Yuan Shao even assassinated Lu Bu after using Lu Bu to defeat the Black Mountain Army. Li Dao and Guo Yan also offered bounties everywhere to capture Lu Bu. Lu Bu is also unlucky, when Dong Zhuo was in power, there was a long list of wanted criminals such as Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, etc., and these people could huddle together to keep warm. When it was Lu Bu's turn, he was left alone and alone, and he had to be on guard against the attacks of the princes at any time. That is, Lu Bu's combat effectiveness is extremely strong, so he can stay alive. Therefore, Lu Bu did not get the same benefits from him because he protected Liu Xie, on the contrary, he also became a wanderer, wandering everywhere, and even slept under the overpass. Now the down-and-out Liu Xie has come to invite Lu Bu again, with Lu Bu's simple character and vision, unless there are very clear benefits, he will not easily return to the imperial court.

In addition, there were practical difficulties in getting to Luoyang, and Lü Bu had to pass through the enemy-occupied areas controlled by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Again, Lu Bu had already seen that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was in vain and could no longer control the world.

Lü Bu's conclusion not only came from the experience of occupying Yanzhou, but was also confirmed by the fact that the other princes were fighting their own battles in the staking field. The centralization of the imperial court has long been a non-existent one. Although Lu Bu still has the idea of being loyal to the monarch, he has diluted it a lot, and his heart for the imperial court has changed from the yearning of Ding Yuan to the current heart. The biggest effect of the change of thinking in a person's life is social turmoil, which will make everyone reposition their three views. In the end, this unsuccessful Yanzhou experience had already made Lu Bu's heart wild.

Since Lu Bu's debut, he has never had his own territory, he is always dependent on others, he has always been a very regular person in politics, and he has never thought of taking a step beyond Lei Chi, but Chen Gong gave Lu Bu the first chance to experience, and almost got Yanzhou, although he has not had it for a long time, he has already felt very much. The kind of heroic feelings that scolding Fang Xuan and owning the world impacted Lu Bu------ hot-blooded man who fought on the battlefield. First love is often a failure, and if the object of your first love is a gentle beauty, then your life will not be dull, because although she is gone, she will leave you a high realm behind her, so that you will fall into a lifetime of hard pursuit. Lu Bu failed, but the taste of being once difficult to turn into water is too worthy of Lu Bu to pursue the next beauty.

So, when he received Liu Xie's order from King Qin, Lu Bu replied, the content was as follows: "I'm already hungry, I'm still digging wild vegetables and gnawing bark, I really can't take care of you, even the piece of ink that I wrote for you, after I finish writing your reply, we will also lick it separately." There are a lot of bamboo slips to write this letter, and there are still a few left that have not been written, I am afraid that I will not leave it to you if it is wasted, so I will tear it down and eat it, and count it as dried bamboo shoots. ("Romance of the Three Kingdoms": The cloth army has no livestock and cannot cause itself, so it is sent to the book.) )”

In this way, because Lu Bu himself was not ready, he watched an opportunity slowly drift away from his eyes, and he didn't reach out to grab it, because he didn't know that this was a good opportunity to change his declining situation.

I have to say that the pattern of Lu Bu and Chen Gong is still small, and they only see their own one-third of an acre. As long as they raised their eyes and looked around Liu Xie, they would find that there were already Lu Bu's own people there, and they were also important ministers recognized by Liu Xie.

This person is Lu Bu's old colleague, and the iron buddy Hanoi is too guarded and flamboyant.

Zhang Yang was meritorious in rescuing and driving on the way back from Liu Xiedong, and his virtue was good, and he was named the Great Sima, Fake Jieyue, and Marquis of Jinyang by Liu Xie, and was stationed in Yewang County, Hanoi. When Lu Bu was homeless and slept on the cement pipe twice, Zhang Yang helped him, and he had a very strong relationship with Lu Bu, and Zhang Yang would definitely obey Lu Bu's wishes to do things. If Lu Bu successfully arrives in Luoyang, he may be able to follow Liu Xie and achieve a greater career. But the most important steps in a person's life are a few steps, left or right, the destination will be completely different, and the result will be different.

On the other hand, Lu Bu is naturally also an opportunity for Liu Xie.

Liu Xie is very talented and a wise person, at the age of nine, he can be in front of Dong Zhuo without panic, and calm in the event of a coup. At the same time, Liu Xie was also an emperor with a strong personality, otherwise he would never have escaped alive from various warlords after several catastrophes. He has the tenacity and perseverance of an entrepreneur, does not have the arrogance of a defender, and has the excellent qualities of a successful person, but he lacks sufficient military experience.

And Lu Bu's biggest specialty is military affairs, and his biggest advantage is that he was born in a poor family and has simple politics.

Lu Bu has no political ambitions, he neither understands nor likes politics, and Lu Bu has no roots in the imperial court, if there is, only Liu Xie. In Liu Xie's eyes, Lu Bu's political foundation is the best foundation, and there is no one. The key is that Lu Bu is also both virtuous and artistic, his combat quality is first-class, if the real sword and real guns are in a formation to fight, few people can win Lu Bu's cavalry brigade. This is a huge guarantee for Liu Xie.

Liu Xie has experienced several warlords on his way back to the east for nearly a year, and has been robbed by various forces, living like a top brand every day, and I don't know which big man he will lie in tomorrow. Liu Xie is deeply eager to be protected by a strong arm, looking for a sense of security that he has not had for many years.

If Lü Bu can come to assist the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie can control the court with the weight of the Son of Heaven's mighty tree Lü Bu, and the result may not be as strong as in the future, bound by the power of the princes.

But the number of qi will not be done by man. The emperor who lost the country may not be an incompetent emperor, but he must be an unlucky emperor. Looking at history, most of the last emperors were very diligent and hardworking, but in the face of calamity, what is the use of hard work, and maybe accelerate their demise. Of course, you can't work hard if you don't work hard, and how do you know that hard work is useless if you don't work hard?

Therefore, the history of version 1.0 has been fixed, so after the Shuntian Alliance controls all this, it will naturally let everything go on according to the original history. Anyone who vainly tries to destroy history is naturally the target of the Shuntian Alliance's eradiation.

Not to mention the relationship between Lu Bu and Liu Xie in the 1.0 version of history, after listening to Yuan Chang's words, Ye Gucheng and the others were moved in their hearts and didn't need to say much, they immediately bowed down and saluted, and responded in unison: "We should obey the lord's orders!" Of course, it is said that it is so, but it is unknown whether it is done or not. After all, Yuan Chang attaches so much importance to them, what else can they do for Yuan Chang besides repaying them with their lives? In Yuan Chang's mouth, Liu Xie is only a little bit of a role that is not as good as their lives, but, in their opinion, maybe this effect is a straw for Yuan Chang to eradicate the Shuntian Alliance. Therefore, they secretly decided in their hearts that they would bring the Son of Heaven back to Youzhou no matter what, even if it cost their lives. When the time comes, Yuan Chang will really be able to bear to punish them.
