Chapter 231: Depressed Liu Bei
Cao Cao talked with Gongsun Chan for a while, and slowly retreated to the outside of the tent.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, as soon as Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan left, the princes from all walks of life began to talk to each other again, and they were still inconsistent, some said to withdraw from the army, and some said to wait and see...... But no one mentioned the matter of marching into Luoyang.
Yuan Shao didn't have any idea, he looked at the chaos in the tent, and suddenly his head was ......
Yuan Shao sat in place and sighed for a while, simply slapped his buttocks, got up and walked towards the tent, Yuan Shao decided not to care, although he proposed to crusade against Liu Zhan, but it seems that few people take him as the leader of the alliance. Yuan Shao felt powerless for a while, he was wondering whether the decision to crusade against Liu Zhan was right or wrong......
……
Luoyang.
Listen to Yuxuan.
Liu Zhan was reading the book slip in the study alone. Although Liu Zhan in later generations was a hard-working young man, he loved to learn, and whenever he had time, he would find all kinds of books to read, and after coming to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Zhan's habit remained unchanged. When he has free time, Liu Zhan often hides in his study alone, flipping through classics. Most of these classics were given to Liu Zhan by Xun Yu, mainly some Confucian classics, and some military books.
Liu Zhan of later generations probably did not dabble in the Four Books and Five Classics of Confucianism, but he only knew half of it, and he only knew what it was, but he didn't know why. When Xun Yu sent the Confucian classics, he also specially told Liu Zhan to review the classics and be ambitious. At the beginning, Liu Zhan felt that these classics were a little boring, but after he became prime minister, after combining theory and practice, Liu Zhan found that these Confucian classics were really good words for governing the world, and each classic contained many philosophies of life. Historically, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has been vigorously developed. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion to depose the hundred schools, respected Confucianism alone, established a doctor of the Five Classics, opened disciples, set up a science and shooting strategy, and persuaded him to be an official. After Emperor Wu, Emperor Yuan, Emperor Cheng and Emperor Guangwu, Emperor Ming, Emperor Zhang and others of the Later Han Dynasty continued such cultural policies, so that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, "the imperial court discussed politics, all quoted scriptures, and the ministers and scholars were all proficient in more than one art." Not only that, but there is even a saying among the people that "it is better to teach your son than to be full of gold".
Today, Liu Zhan is reading "Shangshu", according to Xun Yu, "Shangshu" is alienating, and it should be carefully studied. At first, Liu Zhan didn't think so, "Shangshu"? It's not that he hasn't seen it, and it's clearly not as good as Xun Yu said.
Now that he thinks about it, Liu Zhan suddenly feels that he is a little superficial, and after comprehending the essence of it, Liu Zhan regards the "Book of Shang" as a treasure book, and he will read it with relish whenever he has time.
Just when Liu Zhan was immersed in the study of "Shangshu", Lian'er ran into the study with a smile on her face, came to Liu Zhan's side, happily raised the small bamboo pipe sealed with mud in her hand, and said, "Husband, there is news from the front line!" ”
"Oh? Open it up and see what it says, whether it has won a big battle! ”
Liu Zhan stood up with a smile, took Lian'er's little hand, and said.
Lian'er deducted the mud seal, took out a small piece of white silk cloth from the small bamboo tube, and handed it to Liu Zhan.
Liu Zhan took the silk cloth and saw that it was written:
'Flying Feather rode to destroy the princes of two roads in a row. The strategy of the military division was realized, and the Flying Tiger Battalion and the Flying Feather Cavalry successfully ambushed more than 30,000 enemy troops, killed nearly 20,000 people, and captured more than 15,000 people. ’
"Haha...... Good! Zilong and Zhongkang are really powerful. Liu Zhan laughed, handed the silk cloth to Lian'er, and said, "As fast as the military division, they will go to the hall to discuss matters." ”
"Yes, husband."
Lian'er said softly towards Liu Zhan Yifu, and then wanted to turn around and walk outside.
Liu Zhan took a step forward, took Lian'er's little hand, and said softly: "Lian'er, I don't think you should do this, I'm afraid that I will be tired of my baby." ”
Lian'er blushed and said softly: "Husband, let's say yes, husband can't go back." Only with the power of the Moon Shadow Guard in Lian'er's hands can she better protect her husband and sisters. If you change others and have bad intentions, wouldn't the husband and his sisters be in danger? ”
"Well, since you said yes, let's do it first. It's just hard work. Now, the troubled times have risen, and the world is constantly fighting, and you will be busy in the future. ”
Liu Zhan gently hugged Lian'er in his arms, stroked Lian'er's back, and said softly.
"For the sake of her husband, Lian'er is willing."
Lian'er lowered her head and replied softly. After marrying Liu Zhan, although Lian'er has experienced I don't know how many times she has been in personnel, but in front of Liu Zhan, she is still like an untrained chick......
"Okay, Lian'er is the most lovely. Go ahead, let's talk again in the evening......"
Liu Zhan patted Lian'er on the shoulder and said.
"Hmm......" Lian'er replied inaudibly and exited the study.
After about half an hour's work, Xun You, Xi Zhicai, Xu Shu, Zhao Yan, Shi Tao, and Bu Yun came to the conference hall together.
After the six people saluted Liu Zhan, they took their seats one after another.
Liu Zhan shook the white silk in his hand and said loudly: "Good news ahead!" Zilong and Zhongkang made a great victory, eliminated the princes of the two roads in one fell swoop, successfully ambushed the enemy army, killed nearly 20,000 enemies, and captured more than 15,000 people.
The military advisor is good at planning, you are good at planning, haha...... After Zilong and Zhongkang are the two teachers, they will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds.
All of you here have made a lot of contributions.
This battle played the prestige of our army and made the princes of all walks of life frightened.
Joyfully! ”
Liu Zhan said a lot in one breath like a cannon.
Liu Zhan's voice fell, and everyone was in high spirits, and they clapped their hands one after another
Xi Zhicai stepped forward, bowed, and said with a smile: "Lord, the reason why this battle was fought well is because of the prestige and fame of the lord." Hehe......"
Liu Zhan saw that Xi Zhicai said a flattering word without a head, and knew that Xi Zhicai's sycophant mistake had been committed again, so his face immediately sank, and he scolded: "Zhicai, this can't be seen for long!" If everybody says that, won't it make my ears softer and softer?
If that's the case, if you follow me, there will be no way out in this troubled world. ”
The other five people listened to Liu Zhan's words, their faces were solemn, their eyes looked at Xi Zhicai strangely, and they arched their hands towards Liu Zhan: "The lord is wise!" The Lord is like this, and we are at ease. ”
Xun You, Xu Shu, Zhao Yan, Shi Tao, and Bu Yun didn't understand Xi Zhicai, and they didn't hear that Xi Zhicai had something to say, but Liu Zhan was different, he knew Xi Zhicai's routine - Xi Zhicai was used to persuading people with flattering words.
Seeing Liu Zhan's knowing gaze, the corners of Xi Zhicai's mouth turned up slightly, and he arched his hand and said, "The lord is wise!" It is a blessing to us, a blessing to the people, and a blessing to the world......"
"Alright, stop." Liu Zhan didn't want to listen to Xi Zhicai anymore, he raised his hand and waved to stop Xi Zhicai, and then said, "Zhicai, you don't have to test me like this in the future." I'm not going to be influenced by anyone's sycophancy. ”
"Hehe......"
As soon as Liu Zhan's voice fell, everyone smiled.
"Now, let's get down to business." Liu Zhan raised his hand, his face turned grim, and said, "Zhicai, you tell me first, next, what will happen to the so-called Eighteen Road princes who are going to attack us, and what strategy should we use to solve it?" ”
Xi Zhicai stepped forward, glanced at Xun You, Xu Shu, Zhao Yan, Shi Tao, and Buyun in the hall leisurely, and arched his hand towards Liu Zhan, and said: "The so-called Eighteen Roads will fall apart soon, don't pay attention to it, just wait patiently for a while." ”
As soon as Xi Zhicai's voice fell, Xun You, Xu Shu, Zhao Yan, Shi Tao, and Buyun lowered their heads in contemplation, and none of them answered.
Liu Zhan was a little puzzled and asked, "Zhicai, just this small battle can break up the arrogant princes from all walks of life?" ”
"That's nature."
"Why are you so sure?"
"My lord, I'm so sure."
Liu Zhan frowned, scolded with a smile, and said, "Don't be long-winded, be specific, don't sell it." ”
Xi Zhicai smiled and didn't speak, but saw Xun You slowly stand up, arched his hand and said: "Lord, with a thousand people, attack two princes' camps in a row, and destroy two princes in a row, who is not afraid of such military might?" ”
Xi Zhicai on the side listened to Xun You's words, nodded constantly, but sat back without saying a word.
"Gongda, go on, don't learn badly from the military advisor, you like to sell Guanzi." Liu Zhan smiled slightly and said.
After speaking, he looked at Xi Zhicai, and said in his heart: This kid is getting more and more out of tune now, huh...... To put it simply, it is becoming more and more arrogant. This kid has cleaned up his itchy skin......
……
Let's say that soon after Yuan Shao left the big tent, the princes of all walks of life dispersed and returned to their camps.
But there are people along the way, cough ...... In fact, there are three people, namely Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu. Everyone went back to the camp, but Liu Bei did not go back to the camp, but came to Yuan Shao's tent and waited for Yuan Shao to come back. Liu Bei thought that since Gongsun Chan returned defeated, there would not be many people, so he would not follow Gongsun Chan. He felt that Gongsun Chan had courage and no strategy, and after this defeat, he would not do much more, it was better to leave Gongsun Chan earlier, and it was impossible for Gongsun Chan to turn to Liu Bei, so Liu Bei had no intention of spending time with Gongsun Chan. Another reason why Liu Bei planned to leave Gongsun Chan was that the hundred or so people he had finally accumulated were also fooled into the battlefield by Gongsun Chan this time and squandered them.
Liu Bei hated, but he couldn't say the bitterness, when Gongsun Chan said that he was chasing the remnants of Liu Zhan, Liu Bei himself ran to Gongsun Chan and took the initiative to ask Ying to pursue the remnants of Liu Zhan together.
Thinking about it now, Liu Bei felt that he had been fooled by Gongsun Zhan, and regretted that he had defected to Gongsun Zhan in the first place......
That's obviously an elite cavalry, isn't it!
Where did the remnants of the thousand numbers come from?
Isn't that bullying? GR's Gongsun Chan, who is it......
