Gongsun Chan dared to be so invincible and arrogant.

is because Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan have had a lot of contradictions before, such as the differences between the two in dealing with Yuan Shu.

The two of them tore their faces, and it was only a matter of time.

Han Cheng's letter gave the two of them an opportunity to tear their faces.

In fact, the most irreconcilable contradiction between the two is their attitude towards the ethnic minorities in the north of Youzhou.

Liu Yu's attitude towards the ethnic minorities in northern Youzhou is relatively mild, and he can use soft means such as money to appease him, and generally does not choose to use force.

But Gongsun Chan is different, and Gongsun Chan believes that the ethnic minorities in the north of Youzhou cannot rely on money alone to appease them.

In doing so, these minorities will look down on the Han Dynasty, and the end result will be nothing more than to settle them down for a while, and will not solve the problem permanently.

If you want to solve the problem permanently, the best way is to give him the money to recruit troops and horses, and then Gongsun Chan will lead the army to attack, and these ethnic minorities who fight will be afraid when they see Gongsun Zhan.

Only in this way will the ethnic minorities in the north of Youzhou be completely honest.

Although the view of Gongsun Zhan, who witnessed the history, was right, the specific approach made Liu Yu unacceptable.

Liu Yu's gifts to the ethnic minorities in the north were all snatched back by Gongsun Zhan's army.

Gongsun Chan not only robbed things, but also burned, killed and looted among the tribes of ethnic minorities.

This made Liu Yu, a 'kind-hearted person' who values face very much, a little unbearable.

So, when Liu Yu received Gongsun Zhan's reply, he planned to settle the new accounts and the old accounts together.

I thought in my heart: "I am Youzhou Mu, the lord of a state in Youzhou, Gongsun Zhan has been arrogant to such an extent, so he doesn't take himself seriously."

If he doesn't send troops again, after Gongsun Zhan's power grows stronger, he will not have his own state pastor in his eyes. ”

Therefore, Liu Yu ordered to gather soldiers and horses from various counties and counties in Youzhou to rush to Jixian County and take Gongsun Zan in the small town in the southeast of Jixian County in one fell swoop.

The people and county commanders of Youzhou were very convinced of Liu Yu and were willing to listen to Liu Yu's words.

Within five days, Liu Yu gathered an army of 100,000 and came towards the small city where Gongsun Zhan was located.

Although Liu Yu had no experience in war command, he knew the truth that there is great strength in numbers.

Gongsun Chan only had a few thousand people around him, how could he be the opponent of his 100,000 army?

When the power is great, it will be arrogant and arrogant.

The arrogance of others may be reflected in the contempt for the enemy, but Liu Yu's arrogance is reflected in the pursuit of perfection.

Not only do you want to win, but you also want to win justice and win beautifully.

Under this kind of psychology, Liu Yu made a faint move.

First, before the soldiers set off, Liu Yu told the soldiers: "Don't hurt others too much, they are all my people, I just need to kill Gongsun Zan alone." ”

Second, during the siege of the city, Liu Yu cherished the houses of the people and ordered that the soldiers were not allowed to burn the city.

Liu Yu's two strange regulations are to protect his dignity and official reputation.

But these 'fee operations', which seem to increase prestige, are not only impossible to achieve on the actual battlefield, but also severely tie the hands and feet of the sergeants.

Therefore, it is a small city, but Liu Yu's 100,000 army has been attacking for many days.

And Gongsun Chan got Liu Yu's plan early from Liu Yu's Gongsun Ji Office, and made adequate preparations in the small city.

After Liu Yu's army attacked for three days, Gongsun Zhan, who was good at fighting, seized a chance.

Gongsun Chan ordered people to set fire to the city, and dispatched hundreds of death squads to attack Liu Yu's army by taking advantage of the wind and fire.

Liu Yu's 100,000-strong army was in chaos when they saw the fire, and they were easily defeated by Gongsun Zhan's army.

After Liu Yu was defeated, he was not good at gathering troops, so he could only lead a small number of men and horses to flee to Juyong County and defend the city.

Gongsun Chan brought all his army and occupied an absolute advantage in terms of troops.

This time, the attacker and the defender changed people, the attacker became the defender, and the defender became the attacker.

Gongsun Zhan doesn't have as much to take care of as Liu Yu, and he is more neat than Liu Yu.

Within three days, Juyong County was taken and Liu Yu's family was captured.

Liu Yu is a relative of the Han family, and he is deeply popular in Youzhou, so Gongsun Zhan let Liu Yu be a puppet and take charge of the power of Youzhou and handle the affairs of the state.

Liu Yu is a 'short-lived ghost'.

When Liu Yu was captured, the imperial court sent an envoy Duan Xun to increase Liu Yu's fiefdom and put him in charge of all the affairs of the six northern states.

This is an order of the imperial court, which is not only justified, but also justified.

After Gongsun Chan saw the envoy, he knew that he had no reason to imprison Liu Yu anymore, but if Liu Yu was released, the situation would not be under Gongsun Chan's control.

As a result, Gongsun Zhan did not stop doing anything, so he had to frame Liu Yu and Yuan Shao for conspiring to become emperor, and coerced the coercion Duan Xun to behead Liu Yu by force and send the head to the capital Chang'an.

Gongsun Zhan took the opportunity to let the imperial court appoint himself as a former general, Yi Hou, and fake festivals, and manage the affairs of the four prefectures of You, He, Qing, and Hebei.

What Gongsun Chan didn't expect was: the support of Liu Yushen's subordinates.

After Liu Yu's death, Chang Shan Xiang Sun Jin, Chang Shan Peng Zhang Yi, Zhang Zan and others committed suicide after scolding Gongsun Zhan.

A small official named Wei Dun, on the way back to Chang'an, led people to rob Liu Yu's head and bury him.

Liu Yu's subordinate generals Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin and strategist Qi Zhou gathered the army in their hands, and recommended Yan Rou, a native of Guangyang County who was as famous as Gongsun Zan and good at fighting, as Wuhuan Sima.

Send people to contact the Xianbei tribe in Youzhou, Wuhuan tribe and other ethnic minorities who have been oppressed by Gongsun Zhan, and prepare to raise troops with Liu Yu's son Liu He to avenge Liu Yu.

After the generals Zhao Yun, Tian Yu and others under Gongsun Chan learned that Liu Yu, the state pastor, was killed by Gongsun Zhan, they were also disappointed, and their attitude towards Gongsun Chan changed.

The news of Liu Yu's killing spread all over the world, and the person who took the lead was none other than Gongsun Zhan's fellow disciple - Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's inscriptions were transmitted to all prefectures and counties.

"During Liu Yu's governance of Youzhou, a large number of people fled to Youzhou to survive.

Liu Yu has the people of the world in mind, and he is really the lord of benevolence and righteousness, and he has always taken it as an example to learn.

Gongsun Chan brutally killed him, which really hurts my heart!

From today on, Liu Bei severed his relationship with Gongsun Zhan, but because of his friendship with Gongsun Zhan, he would not send troops to attack Gongsun Zhan. ”

Liu Bei is worthy of being a generation of heroes, and his speech is very level.

That is, by admiring Liu Yu, he expressed that he wanted to become the same benevolent and righteous lord as Liu Yu, and he broke off the relationship with Gongsun Zan and won the hearts of the people all over the world.

The most exciting thing is that Liu Bei also did not attack Gongsun Zan because of his friendship, so that everyone in the world knew Liu Bei's 'love and righteousness'.

The result is that he doesn't make any effort, but he can still get a good 'reputation', and only Liu Bei can play such a trick so superbly.

After Han Cheng of Bingzhou received Liu Bei's 'text' to the world, he said to Li Ru beside him: "What do you two think of Liu Bei?" ”

Fu Zhu said to Han Cheng with a serious face: "Lord, Liu Bei is really a benevolent and righteous person.

When Gongsun Chan won a complete victory, he was not afraid of Gongsun Chan's powerful forces, and directly cut off relations with him for the sake of morality in his heart. Grant admiration. ”

Han Chengxin said: "Hmph! Liu Xuande is benevolent and righteous? There will be no unrighteous people in the world that day. ”

Then he said to Li Ru on the side: "Captain Han, what do you think?" ”

Li Ru thought for a while, and replied to Han Cheng: "Liu Bei's move is high!" Although it is good, compared with the lord, the gap is still very large. ”

Han Cheng smiled: "When did you learn to pat on the back?" I didn't tell the world anything. ”

Li Ru replied: "I'm not sycophant, but telling the truth."

As soon as Liu Bei's proclamation to the world came out, there must be countless heroes in the world who are willing to submit, but what these people rushed was nothing more than Liu Bei's name of benevolence and righteousness.

If a little trick is used to make Liu Bei's name of benevolence and righteousness go down the drain, then Liu Bei's subordinates will definitely disperse in a hurry.

In the final analysis, Liu Bei is nothing more than 'success is also famous, defeat is also famous'.

But the lord is different, the lord's 'land division order' is a sincere move to benefit the people, and in a short time, it may not be visible;

But under the influence of a long time, the name of the lord will spread all over the world, which is a real and unshakable reputation, much louder than Liu Bei's 'name of benevolence and righteousness' that can be broken at the touch of a button. ”

Han Cheng continued to smile, "Hehe." I'm a little embarrassed to hear you say that.

Let's get down to business, you two said, is it appropriate for us to send troops to Youzhou now? ”

Li Ru replied: "Lord! We can send troops in the name of avenging Liu Yu. But Yuan Shao will definitely not let us send troops smoothly, and will definitely send a large army to stop our army from going north.

Therefore, my subordinates thought that the number of troops we sent this time should not be too much, about 10,000 is enough. We don't want to occupy too much land, we just want to subdue the remnants of Liu Yu and increase our strength. ”

Han Cheng looked at Li Ru approvingly, and said, "I also have this intention." ”

......

The battle outside Handan County came to an end after the Black Mountain Army returned to Han Cheng.

Han Cheng led everyone to retreat to Changshan County, and Yuan Shao also led the main force back to Yecheng.

After Guo Tu returned to Yecheng, he was beaten with twenty military sticks by the people sent by Yuan Shao, and after making an example for everyone in the army, the matter was over.

On this day, Yecheng, Jizhou Pastoral Mansion Chamber

Yuan Shao and his eight strategists were all present.

Receiving the news of the death of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Guo Tu's face was full of excitement.

said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, this is a good opportunity!" As soon as Liu Yu dies, we can justifiably send troops to collect the land of Youzhou.

When the lord occupies the land of Youzhou, he will send troops to subdue Qingzhou. With the land of three states, who in the world can be the enemy? ”

Feng Ji and Guo Tu became more and more disagreeable, and looking at Guo Tu's villain posture, he immediately spoke:

"Although it is justified to send troops now, we still have Han Cheng in the west and Qingzhou in the east, and Kong Rong in Qingzhou in the east has not been completely subdued.

But he wants to subdue Youzhou, isn't it a bit of sitting in a well and watching the sky.

I don't think Youzhou is here anyway, and I can't run away.

It's better for us to take Bingzhou and Qingzhou first, and then gradually occupy Youzhou. ”

Tian Feng and Ju Yi went to Qingzhou, but they didn't see Gongsun Zhan's main force, and they stayed for more than a month, but they sent back the news that Youzhou Mu Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Zhan.

felt that Gongsun Chan had been tricked, so he led the army back to Yecheng.

After Feng Ji finished speaking, Tian Feng spoke:

"Yuan Tu is wrong! Now is the time when Gongsun Chan is weak,

If you don't take advantage of his illness, he will die.

When Gongsun Chan comes back to his senses, he will be a great enemy.

Kong Rong of Qingzhou, a weak scholar, Qingzhou will be our territory sooner or later.

Han Cheng in Bingzhou, although it has developed too fast in recent years, but Bingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and we only need to reinforce Huguan with 20,000 horses to contain Han Cheng.

Now is the time for us to take Youzhou. ”

Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "What Yuan Hao said is good. You have to learn more from Yuan Hao, not only to have a strategy, but also to have a specific approach. ”

After Yuan Shao finished speaking, all the strategists looked at Tian Feng.

Everyone's eyes reveal their own feelings: there is joy; There are angry ones; There are enviable; There are also jealous ones.
