Chapter 397: Prepare to prepare for next year's meeting
"Interesting, so interesting!" Liu Tao laughed when he heard this, "What is the specific matter?!" ”
The two looked at each other, a little puzzled. I can probably guess that Liu Tao went to Luoyang this time, and it was definitely not as simple as picking up Liu Yuanqi. Yuan Shao claimed that the bodies of the two princes found in the lower reaches of Luoshui should be directly related to Liu Tao.
I had no choice but to report according to the news from there...... Liu Ge and Shangguan Yu have returned, so the news was sent back by the nails buried in Luoyang a few years ago.
There are many means, such as inns, such as paper mills...... The liquor shop is the best, after all, people dare to say anything when they are drunk. At the beginning, this nail was planted in order to face the situation that Liu Ge and Shangguan Yu came back, and they didn't know anything about the situation in Luoyang.
"Liu Xie, whom Dong Zhuo found, claimed that two years ago, the first emperor found a stand-in for him, and usually the stand-in who had seven or eight points of imagination with him was outside, and he hid on the side of the Empress Dowager Dong. During the chaos, he was taken away by Wang Yue, a swordsman who taught him, and then met Dong Zhuobu, who had entered Beijing. Xun Yu said slowly.
In response to this explanation, Yuan Shao believes that the prince association found by Dong Zhuo may be the stand-in itself, or even the stand-in that Dong Zhuo himself found to fake the prince association. After all, the bodies of the two princes had been found in the lower reaches of Luoshui, and the two of them were floating on the river at that time, and they had long been dead. Guo Jia stepped forward to add.
"The key now, then, is not who is right...... But what's next, what are they going to do? Liu Tao was actually pondering, he hadn't considered the possibility of a stand-in.
In other words, does Dong Zhuo dare to find someone casually and pretend to be the prince's association? No, he might really dare! Falsely said that the young emperor was abolished, and the young emperor was directly dismounted, and it was even rumored that he was secretly killed. In the end, he fled to Chang'an, and almost regarded himself as the Son of Heaven.
Doing so certainly has a myriad of benefits for him, the question is why take such a risk. Obviously waiting for Yuan Shaoli to be a puppet, after a few years of Zen position, as a 'hero from the dragon', he will naturally be a waiting general, and there will be a steady stream of high-ranking officials......
"You say, who gave Dong Zhuo so much courage...... If you want to say that the army is good, in terms of family affairs and heritage, he is obviously not as good as the Yuan family...... Not even as good as Xun or Guo. Liu Tao thoughtfully.
"The only explanation is that Dong Zhuo really believes that the prince association is true. In other words, he thinks that a living fake prince association is better than no prince at all. Guo Jia analyzed.
Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, the prince may really die, and then after death, he was taken away by a traverser and brought back to life. Or maybe the prince association was originally a traverser, so he really arranged a stand-in for himself early......
It's just that there are a lot of things that can't be said, and Liu Tao thinks that Guo Jia's analysis is more correct. But if this is the case, then as the basis for this inference, Dong Zhuo is actually loyal to the Han family, which feels a little unreasonable.
But compared to the fact that the prince is actually a traverser or something, he prefers to believe this, after all, it is too disgusting for him!
In the next life, he saw a copy, but halfway through it, the protagonist became a villain, and the real protagonist was another time-traveler or something...... It is estimated that he will abandon the book immediately.
If you can, this kind of vulgar plot, please don't appear on him, thank you...... Who am I talking to?
"Whatever the truth is, it doesn't really matter. Luoyang will be chaotic, and all kinds of assassinations against Dong Zhuo will start, and if they are successful, then Yuan Shao will take the throne, drive the prince down, and replace another person.
If he fails, then Yuan Shao will inevitably run away, abandon the center of the chess game, and move to the corner. Liu Tao analyzed.
In fact, it's not an analysis, after all, Yuan Shao really assassinated Dong Zhuo, but failed, and finally fled to the Bohai Sea. Dong Zhuo not only did not pursue responsibility, but also borrowed Liu Xie's hand to seal Yuan Shao as the Taishou of Bohai. In other words, even if it is not sealed, it is meaningless, maybe Yuan Shao went over there and raised troops to publicly express the side of the Qing monarch, which is still relatively passive.
In turn, appointing him as the Taishou of Bohai, he raised troops again, which was morally unreasonable. After all, on the one hand, it occupies the Bohai Sea, and there are those who look like it, and on the other hand, they have to send troops to Qingjun's side or something...... It's a bit of a hypocrisy.
From this point of view, Dong Zhuo took the initiative to appoint Yuan Shao as the Taishou of Bohai, which is obviously more clever.
After Yuan Shao, it was Cao Cao who tried, and after failure, he came out immediately, and finally raised troops in Chenliu...... However, on the way to escape this time, it was obvious that he would not meet Chen Gong.
"Recently, is there any news from Ma Teng?" Liu Tao immediately asked.
"Some time ago, Ma Teng sent a letter, saying that he had just annexed the remnants of Han Sui, and was following our instructions to be friendly to the Qiang tribe and at the same time to seize Jincheng County. Find an opportunity to become the actual controller of Liangzhou. In addition, he relied on the trade routes we opened up and sent us three hundred Xiliang war horses! Hearing this, Xun Yu hurriedly said.
"It seems that there is no update yet, or that he hasn't received the ......news yet," Liu Tao nodded, "but he shouldn't believe the nonsense that the Prince Association has a stand-in." In other words, from the perspective of interest appeal, I don't believe it will be better. ”
In this way, he will realize that Liu Tao's Sanxing Yanhan may be really possible. In a sense, the current situation of the Han Dynasty can be described as 'the Han loses its deer, and the world chases it together'. If you have a bit of eyesight, it is estimated that you have already started to prepare early.
As for supporting another person to be the emperor, it is estimated that no one will be stupid enough to come over and be a puppet.
Just like in history, Yuan Shao planned to support Liu Yu as the new king, but Liu Yu flatly refused this.
"To write a letter to Ma Teng, you don't need too many words, just the four words 'Sanxing Yanhan'." Liu Tao immediately ordered. Xun Yu nodded, and then immediately went to arrange.
Huangfu Song came back, and the fifth school of the Northern Army came back to the third school, but in the two schools in Luoyang, the first school was taken away by Liu Ge. The other school is led by Ding Yuan, and judging from the current situation, the possibility of Dong Zhuo annexing Ding Yuan's department is still very large.
It's just that without Lu Bu's participation, it seems that Lu Bu, the three family slaves, can't be ......
Having said that, that is also the depiction method of romance in itself. In the official history, Lu Bu was only under the command of Ding Yuan, who was the assassin of Bingzhou at that time, but Dong Zhuo was the pastor of Bingzhou. The state pastor ordered the assassination of Shi, and promised to be a high-ranking official, but Lu Bu couldn't refuse.
Naturally, he did not recognize Ding Yuan as his father, nor did he worship Dong Zhuo as his father in the future, and naturally there was no saying that the three surnames were slaves. However, because he was jealous, he killed Dong Zhuo against the water, and Lu Bu's reputation of 'disloyalty' was still unclear.
It's a pity that under my command, Lu Bu has no chance to turn back. Isn't that nice? At the very least, you can be a 'loyal minister' for the rest of your life.
"Bonghyo, what do you think the future holds?" Liu Tao looked at Guo Jia.
"The lord already has a high opinion, and his subordinates are listening." Guo Jia smiled and didn't pick up. He saw that Liu Tao had something to say, so he only waited for him to finish talking first, and then elaborated his point of view, under his admiration, in order to satisfy his vanity.
"You're very unpleasant like this...... Liu Tao really planned to pretend to be B, but Guo Jia saw through it. After a pause, he continued, "Tell me to go down, all the armies will be trained well, maybe this year or next year, we will go south to ask for Dong!" ”
Judging from the current situation, it seems that the princes will still appear when they ask for Dong......
