Dong Zhuo heard that Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, had died, so he decided to send Liu Biao, a relative of the Han family and one of the famous people of the party, to serve as the assassin of Jingzhou.

It may seem like a small thing, but it makes a big difference.

Dong Zhuo couldn't eat well because of Guo Peng's victory, but this didn't mean that anyone other than Dong Zhuo could eat Ma Xiang and his body was great.

Especially the defeated and those who did not dare to march before Guo Peng.

For example, Yuan Shao, and the gang of celebrities and gentlemen of sour jujubes.

In the battle when Dong Zhuo defeated Wang Kuang, Yuan Shao was actually in command of the troops in Hanoi.

Wang Kuang was his vanguard, and Yuan Shao also planned to send troops to fight Dong Zhuo directly, but when he lost, he had to stop and continue to wait and see the situation.

As a result, this wait-and-see saw the news that Guo Peng had broken Xu Rong's army in Xingyang.

Knowing that the first victory in the crusade against Dong Zhuo was won by Guo Peng, Yuan Shao was overjoyed at first, and was immediately woken up by his adviser Xu You.

"Guo Peng's big break of Xu Rong is certainly something to be happy about, but the general should not forget, Guo Peng is a close confidant of Yuan Highway, Guo Peng's big break of Xu Rong increased the prestige of himself and Yuan Highway, and it has nothing to do with the general, the general doesn't feel worried, but I feel worried about the general in private."

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, and then woke up.

"That's true, Guo Zifeng has a close relationship with the highway, and I heard that this time he also made an appointment with the highway to gather troops in Luoyang, discuss Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, and welcome the saint to return to Luoyang, so wouldn't it be ......?"

"If Guo Zifeng succeeds, then the world will inevitably be a situation in which Yuan Highway and Guo Zifeng are in charge, which is not beneficial to the general, the general is the eldest son, but Yuan Highway is the son-in-law, there is a grandson, there is no grandson, and the general does not have an advantage in the name of righteousness."

Xu You said: "The Kwantung Coalition Army's crusade against Dong Zhuo seems to be huge, but how many of them are sincere, and how many people are fishing in troubled waters with the name of the general, can the general tell the difference?" Privately, I thought that the general needed to think about himself. ”

After hearing this, Yuan Shao was silent, leaned less, and asked, "What does Ziyuan think I should do?" ”

"The general is widely prestigious, he is the lord of the alliance, but he only owns a small county in Bohai, and he is still restrained everywhere by the Han Wen Festival, doesn't the general think that this is not a long-term way?"

Xu You narrowed his eyes, his face was full of cruelty: "If the general wants to achieve great things, he can't have no foundation, right now, the foundation given to the general by God is in front of him, why don't the generals take it?" ”

Yuan Shao was puzzled: "What Ziyuan said is true?" ”

"Jizhou!"

Xu You said in a low voice: "Although Jizhou is small, there are millions of people who can go into battle in armor, and the grain in the treasury is enough to support ten years, isn't it the foundation for the general's career?" ”

"Jizhou Mu is a Korean festival, I am just a Taishou under him, how can I seek to seize Jizhou?"

Yuan Shao's face was full of surprise: "And there is no righteous name, do you want me to send troops to attack the Han Wen Festival?" In this way, even if you win, how can you explain it to the people of the world? And how do you convince the people? It's not right, it's not right! ”

"Those who have achieved great things, without a state as a foundation, how can they settle down? Han Wenjie mastered Jizhou, as long as an order was given, he could cut off the general's food supply, and the Bohai Sea was narrow, and the general's salary, grain and grass could not be supplied, so how should the general deal with himself? ”

When Xu You said this, Yuan Shao suddenly felt unhappy in his heart.

Anyone who is choked by others like this and threatens to survive will also feel unhappy in their hearts.

"Having said that, but Ziyuan, Han Wenjie has a heavy army, holds the authority of Jizhou, and I am not as good as Han Wenjie in terms of strength and food, and now it is the time for the alliance to crusade against Dong Zhuo, how can I attack Han Wenjie and take the initiative to destroy the alliance? Isn't this self-defeating? ”

Yuan Shao was still very hesitant.

"At present, Yuan Highway occupies Yuzhou, Guo Zifeng occupies Qingzhou, and the Central Plains occupies half of the land, if the general does not have a state or even two states and three states, how should he compete with Yuan Highway Guo Zifeng? Discuss the Dong Alliance, and disperse it! ”

Xu You's words hit Yuan Shao's heart, Yuan Shao frowned, was silent, and raised his head to look at Xu You for a long time.

"Ziyuan thinks, what should I do best?"

"This matter can't be urgent, let alone leaked, it needs to be done slowly, Feng Ji has a strategy, and the general can discuss it with Feng Ji."

Xu You told Yuan Shao what he thought, and suggested that Yuan Shao discuss more with Feng Ji.

As a result, Yuan Shao, the leader of the Dong Alliance, took the lead in destroying the alliance to seek benefits for himself.

And the existence of the Dong Alliance is like a joke.

Yuan Shao has his own mind here, and which of the celebrities and gentlemen of sour jujube does not have his own mind?

Knowing that Guo Peng won a great victory, the celebrities who were originally frightened by Dong Zhuo like quails immediately flocked to each other, expressing their bravery and fearlessness, and announcing that they would lead their troops to Luoyang, join forces with Guo Peng, and crusade against Dong Zhuo.

Then, there was a quarrel over who would set off first and who would stay in place to prepare logistics for everyone.

Seeing that the merit could be obtained, everyone was scrambling to go to Luoyang to grab the credit, and no one wanted to be left behind, arguing and arguing, and they actually fought.

There is a gap between Liu Dai of Yanzhou Thorn and Taishou Qiaomao of Dongjun.

Qiao Mao held himself as the son of Taiwei Qiao Xuan, and did not give Liu Dai face, Liu Dai was very resentful of Qiao Mao, so he ordered his subordinates to attack Qiao Mao, of course Qiao Mao wanted to fight back, and the two fought.

This fight is good, and the situation of sour dates suddenly became chaotic.

There are those who persuade to fight, there are those who persuade on the surface but actually fan the flames, and there are those who fish in troubled waters.

Liu Dai and Qiao Mao couldn't decide the winner, so they each enlisted others as their own arms and strengthened their own momentum, and the scale of the chaos suddenly expanded a lot.

There was no unified command of a group of celebrities and gentlemen, and no one was convinced, and it almost turned into a big scuffle.

hasn't beaten Dong Zhuo yet, but a circle of people here has started fighting first, and it is okay to fight by themselves, and some people have taken the opportunity to connive at their subordinates to loot Chen Liu's city, Zhang Miao is very unhappy.

Gather troops on my territory, and dare to destroy my territory?

Zhang Miao began to gather troops to protect the cities under his jurisdiction, and began to not supply food to these "rebel army".

As a result, none of their troops were able to go in the direction of Luoyang.

It's better if they don't come, and Guo Peng will feel annoyed if they come.

A bunch of waste.

Guo Peng didn't have the heart to play war games with this group of wastes, he was now facing the "advice" of Li Ru sent by Dong Zhuo.

On the fourth day of the ninth month, when Guo Peng was still reorganizing the army at the Revolving Gate Pass and preparing to go on the expedition, Li Ru came to Guo Peng's military camp in the name of the imperial court envoy.

Guo Peng then summoned the Gongsun brothers, Bao Xin, Bao Tao and Wei Zi, as well as the generals under his command to take a look at what kind of medicine was sold in Dong Zhuo's gourd.
