Chapter 172: Reactions from all sides

As Liu Bei and Cao Cao thought, Yuan Shu acted in this way to weaken the prestige of the Han family on the one hand, and to seek Yizhou on the other.

The crime of assassinating the Son of Heaven plus the crime of privately making dragon robes and dragon chairs was enough for Yuan Shu to send troops to Yizhou justifiably.

And the easy framing of Liu Yu is to hide people's eyes and ears, and it can also muddy the situation. Thinking a little deeper, this can also facilitate the rise of Gongsun Chan and limit Yuan Shao's development.

All this is undoubtedly greatly beneficial to Yuan Shu's layout. If Liu Yan or Gongsun Zan became the emperor with a stroke of brain, then Yuan Shu would be even more refreshing.

Unlike the original situation where Yuan Shu was called emperor, Gongsun Zan was called emperor, and it didn't have much impact on him.

Those who should be afraid of him are still afraid of him, and those who should be beaten are still beaten by him. Moreover, this product is stubborn and self-serving, and there are not many people who are willing to defect to him, and his reputation has little impact.

This thing doesn't have any allies at all, and the only prince who can beat him is Yuan Shao. If Cao Cao dares to stretch out his hand, Liu Bei will be able to take Xuzhou away.

In this situation of checks and balances between all parties, the potential danger brought by Gongsun Zhan's claim to be emperor is very small.

And if Liu Yan is the emperor, Yuan Shu will be even more famous. Without Yuan Shu to contact, Liu Yan's subordinates and soldiers are estimated to turn against each other.

And as long as someone is called the emperor, then it will be more convenient for Yuan Shu to act next. You must know that Liu Xian, who is famous in Jingzhou's assassination history, has not had time to send it out under Yuan Shu's hands! It really doesn't work, so Yuan Shu will push this product out and be a puppet emperor.

As long as the princes of the world are restless, Yuan Shu will be good at fishing in troubled waters. Otherwise, he can only watch others grow and grow, and he is trapped in the south.

Although the development of farming is also very good, it is not good to raise tigers. Some of the territory that can be taken still has to be taken, and if you don't, the enemy will take it.

When the news reached Jizhou, it was different from the calm reaction of the Central Plains princes, and after Yuan Shao learned the news, he immediately released his words.

"Liu Youzhou is a virtuous person, he will definitely not do something that this person is angry with, this must be done by Gongsun Zhan!"

Yuan Shao is now pouring sewage on Gongsun Zhan, and immediately ordered the 200,000 troops under his command to prepare, and it may be possible to send troops to Youzhou at any time.

To be honest, Yuan Shao didn't have any feelings about Liu Xie's death except for a little joy. He is now bent on taking Gongsun Zan and dominating Hebei.

The original Bohai War slapped Yuan Shao hard. With three times the strength of the opponent, Yuan Shao's army was still easily defeated by Gongsun Zhan.

Seeing Gongsun Zan leave with the money and grain in his Bohai Mansion treasury in a dazzling manner, leaving behind a broken wall, Yuan Shao's heart was dripping blood at that time.

Gongsun Zhan understood that only one of them was destined to survive, and he couldn't hold the Bohai Sea, so he was extremely ruthless.

Bohai County, which was originally quite rich, is now starving, Yuan Shao has lost countless money and food, not to mention, he has to grit his teeth and take out the money and food he just got from Jizhou to rescue the people.

With so many displaced people, if left untreated, there will be endless disasters. Isn't the Yellow Turban Rebellion the best example of this?

The Battle of Jizhou, which was originally very smooth, was attacked by Gongsun Zhan like this, and Yuan Shao's money and grain were instantly reduced by half.

Even Yuan Shao, who has deep pockets, can't help but feel a little distressed. What's more, Gongsun Chan also robbed a large amount of money and grain, and became even more powerful.

However, there are gains and losses, and Gongsun Zhan's actions have also caused dissatisfaction among the people of Jizhou. Although Yuan Shao's later relief behavior was reluctant, he suddenly appeared to be extremely benevolent under the backdrop of Gongsun Zhan.

The hearts of the people in Jizhou were completely won over by Yuan Shao, and many local scholars defected to his command.

The last people to get the news were Liu Yu, Gongsun Zan and Liu Yan.

Liu Yu and Liu Yan, the unlucky back-to-back brothers, were the last to learn the news because they were too far away.

Compared with Liu Yu's anger, Liu Yan was full of weakness and excitement.

He really wants to be the emperor, and if Liu Xie dies like this, won't he have a chance?

Yizhou has a genius!

Thinking about what Fang Shi once told him, Liu Yan was suddenly excited. Is it really destiny? In the past, Gaozu rose in Bashu, and today I Liu Junlang is also based here!

Liu Yan was very excited now, and almost wanted to take out the yellow robe he had hidden and put it on and go out for a walk.

But fortunately, although Liu Yan is a little stupid, he is not too stupid. He knew that if he jumped out now, it would be tantamount to looking for death.

The matter of Chang'an has not yet been decided, and if he jumps out so quickly, it will be really difficult to argue. At that time, I am afraid that this black cauldron will have to be memorized.

So he hurriedly declared that this matter had nothing to do with him, and even secretly released rumors, saying that this matter was plotted by Liu Yu and Yuan Shu, and that the minister was arranged by Yuan Shu.

However, this is a bite made by him in order to protect himself, and his statement is extremely outrageous, and not many people believe it at all.

However, by mistake, Liu Yan was really half right, and the minister was indeed secretly arranged by Guo Jia under Yuan Shu.

is different from Liu Yan, who is two-faced and three-stabbed, Liu Yu is upright.

Among the relatives surnamed Liu in the late Han Dynasty, Liu Yu was a rare person with ability, status and character. If it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, he is definitely a generation of virtuous ministers.

This product is impeccable in every way, except that it is too simple and kind, and not good at war, there are basically no shortcomings. Of course, if you are only a capable minister, these are not disadvantages.

In terms of origin and status, this product is an authentic Han clan relative, and it is completely different from the "OEM" imperial uncle like Liu Bei. And he used to be an official to Taifu and Zongzheng, and now he is also a righteous Youzhou pastor.

In terms of prestige, this product has won the hearts of the people in Youzhou. How much? In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, because of the reputation of this product, millions of people came all the way from Qingzhou and Xuzhou to defect.

Even the alien races in the north are in Youzhou under the rule of Liu Yu, and they are also very well-behaved, and they often pay tribute.

The best thing is when this product was first transferred to Youzhou.

Because at that time, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju rebelled with Wuhuan Qiu Liju and others, and also claimed to be the Son of Heaven. Moreover, this group of goods is very fierce in combat, and basically no one can stop it in Youzhou and Jizhou, even Gongsun Chan was defeated by this group of goods back then.

Later, there was no way, and the imperial court sent Liu Yu over. As a result, Qiu Liju and others heard Liu Yu's name and surrendered at that time. And Liu Yu just gave a reward order, and Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were killed by their own people, and the other fled outside the plug and was never heard from.

It sounds amazing, but Liu Yu is so bullish, and his reputation is terrifying. Do nothing, go to this station, give an order to arrest, and this rebellion will be put down! It didn't cost a single soldier, and he also received a Qiu Liju.

This product is simply the "popular king" of Hebei! Countless celebrities, people, and even aliens are his brain-dead fans. Otherwise, Gongsun Chan would not have been so helpless about this goods and would have succumbed to it.

How did Gongsun Chan defeat and kill Liu Yu? The process is even hilarious.

At that time, it was found that Gongsun Chan was going to rebel, and this goods casually recruited 100,000 troops in Youzhou. You must know that this is in Youzhou! Sparsely populated Youzhou! If it is changed to Jizhou, this number will be multiplied by at least three.

At that time, Gongsun Chan was so frightened that he could only hold on, and he had been thinking about how to escape, and he didn't dare to think about fighting back.

As a result, he didn't expect that Liu Yu, a civil official, would not know how to fight at all, and the most important thing was that his heart was too soft.

At the beginning, he explained to the generals under his command, don't hurt the innocent, just arrest Gongsun Zhan alone.

I don't know if the power of the "popular king" is too great, the generals and soldiers under his command have all turned into brainless fans, and they have completely forgotten how to fight, and really chose to besiege but not attack, and have been shouting: "Surrender or kill." ”

Gongsun Chan immediately smiled when he saw this, isn't this looking for a fight? At that time, he led 300 elite cavalry to take advantage of the situation to set fire to the attack.

You must know that at that time, only 300 elite horsemen under the command of Gongsun Chan were willing to follow him. As for why this is the only one left? Because everyone else has run to Liu Yu's side.

This group of brainless fans were also stunned when they saw that the army under the command of Gongsun Zhan did not surrender, but fought again.

I don't know if I should fight back, or if I shouldn't fight back. Liu Yu's orders told them to remember that the thieves were clear, and none of them dared to fight back, and the entire 100,000 army was chased and beaten by more than 300 people. Then Gongsun Chan won so magically.

This is Liu Yu, a magical person!

The reason why Yuan Shao didn't regard Liu Yu as an enemy was because this product was amazing. What if there is a real fight and the whole Jizhou rebels?

Maybe he led an army of 200,000 to go over, and there were only 20,000 left. The remaining 180,000 are standing on the opposite side, how should this battle be fought?

And this thing can't be killed, just think about the result after Gongsun Chan killed Liu Yu.

Even many aliens who were very afraid of Gongsun Chan also rushed up one by one to fight with him, and the people of Youzhou were even more detached. Countless righteous people rebelled and added to Gongsun Zhan's blockage.

After Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, the defeat was basically decided, not to mention winning against Yuan Shao, it would be good to be able to control Youzhou.

Yuan Shao never regarded Liu Yu as an enemy. Originally, when Dong Zhuo was in charge of the government, he planned to put Liu Yu on the throne of the Son of Heaven.

Because he saw very clearly that it was impossible for a person with high moral character like Liu Yu to become a hero, let alone be an enemy of himself. Even if someone sees that Yuan Shao has the intention of rebellion, it is estimated that Yuan Shao can fool the past by admitting a little cowardice and saying good things.

As a human master, or even a male master, one of the most critical qualities is shamelessness.

A virtuous person simply cannot be a real human master, because there are too many ways for a shameless person to kill you.

Which one of the real male lords is not thick-faced and black-hearted? Which one isn't acting superman?

Is Qin Shi Huang considered a hero? How did Bai Qi die?

Is Liu Bang considered a hero? With so many princes, kings and heroes, which one has a good end? The most tragic of them all is Han Xin.

Pushing back further, is Li Shimin considered a hero? Using people as a mirror can tell the gains and losses, how nice it sounds! The story of He Wei Zheng is rumored to be a good story. The result? As soon as Wei Zheng died, the tombstone was smashed by Li Shimin, and the whole family was unlucky.

Not to mention the rest of Zhu Yuanzhang, who is famous for killing heroes. has done a lot more than Liu Bang, at least Liu Bang will find some excuses to cover it up.

Those who achieve great things are not informal. Throughout history, you will find that people who have achieved great things are basically informal.

Why? Because the battle for domination of the world is a dirty thing in itself. Those who are virtuous and informal, and they are doomed to failure.

If Liu Bang had moral character, he would have been finished when Xiang Yu wanted to kill his father.

Yuan Shao knew very well that Liu Yu was not a threat to him at all, and he was too noble and selfless. Gongsun Chan is his great enemy.
