Chapter 301: Kong Ming and Xu Shu
Xu Shu asked and answered himself, in fact, he was also a little confused in his heart, with him now, can he really take on this responsibility?
He gritted his teeth, pulled out the sword that had not been polished for many years, and carefully savored the determination of the sword in his hand to save the world.
After a long time, he swore an oath, "Mother, don't worry, my son won't let you wait too long, two years, no!" Just one year. ”
"One year is enough! I, Xu Shu, swear that I will learn Wang Yue's swordsmanship! ”
Since then, Xu Shu has also picked up the sword again, and most of the time the dragon has not seen the end. Over the course of a few months, he met with Kong Ming and the others, who could sense that his fierceness was growing stronger and stronger.
Zhuge Liang and others asked, and Xu Shu didn't hide it too much, saying that some gentlemen need to be healthy, and it is best to go to Kuang Fu Sheji in person.
He also advised Kong Mingdao, "Now that the world is difficult, we can't just enjoy the happiness of paradise here, we should think more about the world's major events." ”
Kong Ming became interested and asked, "How does Yuan Zhi think he wants to appease the world?" Which prince stands out today for this mission? ”
Shi Tao and Meng Jian were also there, and they were very interested in this topic, so they quieted down together and thought about and discussed carefully. That Meng Jian was more anxious, and quickly showed that he was confident.
Xu Shu asked, "Meng Gongwei has a goal, let's talk about it." ”
Meng Jian said: "Looking at the general trend of the world, there is one person who is fighting left and right, and he is stunned to fight his way out of the strong enemy. This person has the support of the Yingchuan clan......"
The other three sighed in their hearts, this was not the first time Meng Jian had commented on this person like this, and they didn't have to guess to know that this person was Cao Cao.
Although Kong Ming and others don't like Cao Cao, they respect other people's views and choices very much, so they have always been friends with Meng Jian, who supports Cao Cao.
He said, "Meng Gongwei's choice is probably closely related to his usual homesickness, this Cao Mengde has won the support of the scholars in Yingchuan and other places, and this time after he expelled Yuan Shu, Runan was also completely under his control." ”
Meng Jian said, "I really can't hide it from Kong Ming, to be honest, I have been following Cao Mengde for a long time, he can really stabilize the world and bring the future I want to my hometown and even more places." ”
Shi Tao, like history, has no clear ideas, and is slightly troubled by not knowing how to take on the responsibility of the world.
Kong Ming also sighed, he hoped to work here for the time being, not to seek to reach the princes, and to look forward to heroes who have the people and the society in their hearts to come forward, seize the opportunities of the times, and achieve a career. He hopes to support such people to create a more ideal future.
Of the four, only Xu Shu did not speak, and his face was slightly serious, obviously thinking about something formal and important.
Zhuge Liang saw his thoughts a little, and asked, "Brother Yuan, it's your turn, I feel that your efforts these days must also be related to your future choices, right?" ”
Xu Shu nodded frankly, and said righteously, "That's true, I started practicing martial arts again during this time, that is, I want to hold a sword in one hand and a book in the other, and kill traitors for the Son of Heaven." ”
Among several people, Shi Tao and Xu Shu had the closest relationship, he could understand what he was thinking a little, and said, "Hehe, Yuan Zhi was so jealous and hateful when he was a ranger, and I can see you pick up the sword again, which means that you broke through yourself first, and then broke through yourself." ”
Kong Ming also smiled and said, "Haha, I thought that the three of you would only be assassins and county guards in the future, and if you communicate with Yuan Zhi today, it feels limitless." ”
Meng Jian and Shi Tao smiled and said, "Kong Ming, Kong Ming, you said that the two of us can serve as assassins and county guards in the future, it seems that you still feel that the tone is not very good, what position can you hold?" ”
Kong Ming laughed and didn't answer, Meng Jian and Shi Tao also laughed, only Xu Shu thought a little in his heart, people seemed to be just sitting here, but his heart had already taken on the affairs of the world.
The four of them discussed how to solve the problems of the world and debated the current situation of discontention.
This time, the four of them had their own strengths, and the discussion was not lively, but such days became more and more limited, and when they recalled it later, they always felt that this was really a precious period in their lives.
……
Soon after, Liu Miao of Yuzhang fell ill and died, and this area was converted to Sun Ce in the third year of Jian'an. Sun Ce and Liu Biao have a grudge against their father, and of course there is no possibility of peace between the two sides, so they go to war directly.
Liu Pan is very brave, and with the cooperation of the general Huang Zhong, he has already invaded Yuzhangshu County, which is completely unstoppable. Liu Biao thoroughly strengthened the momentum of development to the east, and threw the newly annexed Gan Ning into Huang Zu's men, preparing to attack from the north.
After Sun Ce heard about it, he made Tai Shici the commander and specially commanded the military affairs in Yuzhang and other places, so that he could curb the momentum of Liu Pan's eastward attack.
In a short period of time, the two sides are still deploying troops, and the initiative in the situation is temporarily in Liu Pan's hands. It is estimated that in the next year, Liu Biao and Sun Ce will fight on various fronts and slowly decide the winner.
Sun Ce's rapid rise is inseparable from the external protection given to him by Yuan Shu, in addition to his own strong strength, the appointment of a group of new and old talents, the adoption of a series of strategies adapted to local conditions, and the mediocre strength of his opponents.
However, after the disastrous defeat of Yuan Shu in the Battle of Chen, he could only retreat in a corner of Huainan and oppress the people, exacerbating the famine and cannibalism, and getting closer and closer to extinction.
There are only a few generals under him, such as Zhang Xun, Chen Lan, and Lei Bo, as well as Yang Hong, Yuan Jian and other Wenchen who are still trying their best to save the situation, but the lord is crazy, and they can't do anything.
In the third year of Jian'an, that is, in 198 AD, the development status has been significantly different from history.
Han Sui and other troops in the west directly occupied Hexi, and Dong Bai and Tong Yuan, who were born out of thin air, controlled Sanfu, Hedong, and a large number of originally lost lands.
Yuan Shu in the east did not claim the title of emperor, but it was even more declining, and Cao Cao did not control the Son of Heaven and Si Li, so the Yuan Cao alliance was still stable and growing stronger.
Yuan Shao, Sun Ce, and Liu Biao don't seem to have changed much, after all, in another world line without Tong Yuan, Yuan Shao does not control the area outside the state party at all.
As for Gongsun Zhan, who is about to perish, and Zhang Yan, who has already defected to the Xinxi Liang Army, of course, they cannot be regarded as the dominant side.
Gongsun Du originally thought that most people had strength, but it was too remote to be regarded as the main dominant force.
Liu Zhang of Yizhou was first suppressed by Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and Liu Biao, who did not dare to offend in the east, even relied very much on the Wudu trade route controlled by Tong Yuan, so it could only be regarded as a state of tranquility.
And the miserable Lu Bu and Liu Bei still seem to be suppressed in a limited area. No matter how you look at it, there were only six militarily powerful factions, until the beginning of the year, when the situation changed again.
