- Xuzhou

Lu Zhi came to the door of the Assassin's Mansion and dismounted, and Tao Qian was already waiting for him at the door.

"Tao Gong, it's been a long time!"

"Calling Gong Lu late at night, it's mine, it's just that there is a sudden big event, and I need to discuss it with Gong Lu."

The two entered the house together and sat down as the host and guest.

Lu Zhi saw that there was another person, took a closer look, knew him, and couldn't help shouting, "Gongwei, why are you here?" Aren't you the county guard in Runan? ”

Chen Yu said with shame on his face, "Yanzhou Cao Cao attacked Yuan Shu, I also feel that Yuan Shu is guilty of the imperial court, and I raise troops accordingly, I don't want to be defeated by Sun Ben, so I can only abscond here." ”

Tao Qian waved his hand and smiled, "Gongwei is from Xuzhou, and it is right to go back to my Xuzhou!" ”

Chen Yu is Chen Qiu's eldest son, born in the Chen family in Xiapi, and this Chen family is Chen Qiu's nephew - Chen Jue, who is now at home for the elderly.

Tao Qian continued, "I am in Xuzhou alone, the news is not smooth, Gongwei just happened to tell us about the current situation. ”

Chen Yu told the changes of Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Chen Wen and others that he knew.

After listening, Lu Zhi sighed, "Yuan Yi is loyal, but he doesn't want to be harmed by Yuan Highway!" ”

Tao Qian patted the table and said, "The Son of Heaven is still suffering in Kansai, these county guards and envoys, but they only know how to fight for power and profit, and merge counties across states, it is true"

As he spoke, Tao Qian shook his head and sighed with a painful face.

"Yes, I thought that Yuan Shao was a person who understood righteousness, but he also made a move to seize Jizhou, and now he is fighting with Ma Qiang in Hebei, I am afraid that he will not have the strength to regain the allied army!" Lu Zhi also sighed.

Tao Qian looked at Lu Zhi and said, "It is precisely for this reason that I want you to come forward and rebuild the alliance!" ”

Lu Zhi looked at Tao Qian in surprise, he proposed this matter when he first came to Xuzhou, but Tao Qian did not agree, why did Tao Qian take the initiative to rebuild the alliance today?

Tao Qian was also very helpless in his heart, he was already very old.

He was born in 132 C.E., and by this year he is already in his sixties.

In the Han Dynasty, there were not no people above the age of sixty, but there were very few, and it was an era when the normal average life expectancy did not exceed forty years old (excluding premature death).

Even Liu Bang, who was a late bloomer, ascended the throne at the age of fifty-four.

He is too old to have the life and energy to compete in the world, and his son does not have this potential.

What he hopes most now is to restore peace in the world and let the Han Court regain control of the world, only in this way can he arrange the future of his two sons after his death.

Otherwise, in the troubled times, this huge Xuzhou is a huge piece of fat.

Therefore, Tao Qian hoped that in his lifetime, he would welcome back the Son of Heaven and then restore the original order of the Han Dynasty.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

Of course, Lu Zhi was extremely happy with Tao Qian's decision, and the two of them immediately began to work together to draft a document, publish it to the world, and give full play to their soft power.

Soon, many counties responded.

Which people, in addition to the five counties of Xuzhou, there are also the former Yangzhou Thorn Shi Zhou Qian, the former Jiujiang Taishou Fu Qian, Taishan Taishou Ying Shao, Pei Xiang Yuan Zhong, and Runan Taishou Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan, the Taishou of Runan, is not sealed by Yuan Shu, he is genuine, it was sealed by the imperial court, and because of Yuan Shu, he has shrunk to the north of Runan, and at the beginning, Chen Yu and even now Sun Ben has always mastered the south of Runan.

During this period, many princes in particular declared their official positions, so it was normal for a county to have several county guards at the same time.

Later, the three kingdoms stood side by side, and everyone's official positions fought even more fiercely.

But from this list, it can be seen that Tao Qian's influence is all some old officials, and even retired officials, and the younger generation of scholar officials have little interest in welcoming back the Son of Heaven and rebuilding the Han Dynasty, or no one thinks that Tao Qian's group can do it.

And Cao Cao, who had just won the battle and was still digesting the results in Yingchuan, was dumbfounded in the face of this inscription, he knew that Yanzhou was in bulk, compared to a certain province in the southeast in later generations, but this is also too bulk, but I, the state pastor, haven't spoken yet, why did you, the county guard of Mount Tai, change your face and surname Tao.

What made him most uncomfortable was that Taishan Yingshao not only took the initiative to respond to Tao Qian's call, but also began to reorganize the armament and make way for the Xuzhou army to enter.

Tao Qian is now playing the banner of welcoming back the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao can't directly fight with Tao Qian, what is this rumor, Cao Cao, the hero who took the lead in opposing Dong, has become a lackey of Dong thieves?

And once he starts fighting with Tao Qian in Taishan, it is inevitable that Ma Qiang in Qingzhou, who is on the side, will not have other ideas.

Cao Cao held back his anger, but secretly remembered this matter, and was ready to wait for the right opportunity to kill Tao Qian, an old immortal.

At the same time that Tao Qian and Lu Zhi were very excited, Wang Lang and Zhao Yu, who were engaged in governance, came to see Tao Qian to offer advice, and they persuaded Tao Qian to send money and goods to Chang'an to greet the Son of Heaven, and to present himself as the state pastor in order to control the power of Xuzhou.

Tao Qian thinks it makes sense, anyway, it's this era, it doesn't matter if your court agrees with me or not, I'll go to engrave the official seal when I put it on the table.

At the same time, these two people also woke up Tao Qian, don't you see that there are quite a lot of people who support us to raise the alliance again and attack Dong Zhuo, but none of those state pastor bosses have spoken, Yanzhou Cao Cao has just finished fighting Yuan Shu, and we have won over Taishan Yingshao, will he not be angry? What we need to do now is to expand our capabilities.

Tao Qian felt that it was very reasonable, and immediately added two sentences to the documents of the imperial court, saying that Zhao Yu was the Taishou of Guangling and Wang Lang was the Taishou of Huiji.

Before Zhang Chao, who was left in Chen, could react, Guangling County had nothing to do with him at all.

Tao Qian also saw that now Ma Qiang in the north and Cao Cao in the west, both of which are very capable of fighting, and the only direction that can be expanded is the south, so he decided to go down in Yangzhou, hoping to compete with Yuan Shu for Yangzhou.

In this way, starting from Yuan Shao's seizure of Jizhou, it was like dominoes, one prince influenced another prince, and finally most of China was involved in disputes and wars.

The melee of the princes in Henan had no effect on Ma Qiang in Hebei.

In the past few months, he fought steadily and steadily, gradually controlling Hejian, Anping, Julu and other places, and suppressed Yuan Shao's army to the line of Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhao and Wei.

Yuan Shao, who was in Yecheng, also gradually recovered under Hua Tuo's wonderful hands, looking at the battle report during this time, Yuan Shao knew that Jizhou was already difficult to hold, but thanks to Xu You and Guo Tu, he still had a way out.

But the big man is so big, he can't keep retreating.

Yuan Shao looked at the map and secretly thought about his counterattack.
