Section 200: Plotting Jizhou
In Bohai City, more than a thousand miles east of Luoyang City, Yuan Shao was reading a letter in the middle of the study of Taishou Mansion.
"Lord, what did the Taifu say in the letter?"
The one who asked was He Jin's henchman at the beginning, Xu You, the waiter of the Yellow Gate. At the beginning, Xu You's identity was the same as Yuan Shao's, and they all belonged to He Jin's staff. But Xu You is just a poor scholar, and Yuan Shao is a son of the scholar family, the fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, and his protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the world. He Jin fell, Yuan Shao would be fine, but Xu You would not be able to rely on him.
When Yuan Shao was expelled by Dong Zhuo and appointed as the Taipuncy of Bohai, Xu You followed Yuan Shao to Bohai for the first time. This kind of behavior of sending carbon in the snow made Yuan Shao greatly appreciated. Xu You is not only Yuan Shao's first strategist, but Xu You's ability is indeed outstanding, so in this Bohai City, Xu You is the number two person.
Yuan Shao handed the letter to Xu You, and said leisurely: "Uncle ordered me to raise troops to take Jizhou? β
"Take Jizhou!?" When Xu You heard this, he hurriedly unfolded the letter and read it carefully.
After reading it, Xu You slowly folded the letter and put it back on Yuan Shao's desk.
Yuan Shao stood up, put his hands behind his back and said: "Bohai Town, I have only been here for a few months, and the guards of the whole county are only two thousand. In the land of Jizhou, although Guan Yan led the crowd to leave, he sent his general Zang Ba to guard it. When Guan Yan left, he left 3,000 men and horses in Jizhou, and in the past few months, Zang Ba has recruited troops and horses, and now there are nearly 10,000 troops. It is unwise to attack a crowd of 10,000 with 2,000 troops! β
After listening to Xu You's words, Yuan Shao's brows furrowed: "Ziyuan, in your opinion, what should I do?" β
Xu You walked to the map hanging on the wall, pointed to the map and said: "My lord, please look, if you break Jizhou, you will send reinforcements from all sides to besiege it!" β
"Guan Yan is now an official to General Zuo, and he holds the power of the imperial court, I'm afraid no one dares to compete with him!" Yuan Shao understood what Xu Yu meant, that is, he wanted to help him, but Yuan Shao didn't have much hope for this.
Xu You smiled slightly; "Lord, those who are afraid of each other dare not offend Guan Yan, but those who are not in harmony with Guan Yan should help me!"
Discordants? Yuan Shao rubbed his chin: "You try to say it!" β
Xu You clenched his fists and replied: "The west of Jizhou is the land of the state, and Ding Yuan clashed with Dong Zhuo when Dong Thief was in power, and then Lu Bu turned against Ding Yuan and voted for Dong Zhuo, and Ding Yuan was very evil!" Now that Lu Bu is against Dong Zhuo and handed over to Guan Yan, presumably Ding Yuan must also be dissatisfied with Guan Yan in his heart. The lord can repair a book, know the righteousness, say the powerful, make it from west to east, and send it to Jizhou! β
Xu You pointed to the eastern part of Jizhou again: "Under my Bohai County is Pingyuan County, Pingyuan County's surname is Liu Mingbei, the word Xuande, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was quite meritorious, but it has been suppressed by Guan Wende, so he has always held a grudge, the lord can ask this person, merge one, and fight Yecheng together!" β
"Good! Ziyuan's plan is very good, I will immediately repair the book for the two of them! β
Half a month later, in the mansion of General Zuo in Luoyang City, early in the morning, a person hurriedly ran into Guan Yan's study and said, "Lord, and the state is urgent!" β
Guan Yan raised his eyes and saw that it was Zhang Liao, for this treasure that he picked up for nothing, Guan Yan was happy once he saw it! Guan Yan hurriedly said: "It's Wenyuan!" And state urgent? Who sent it? β
Zhang Liao clenched his fists: "Is it sent by Ding Yuan Ding's assassination?" β
Ding Yuan? Guan Yan's face gradually became solemn: "Ding Yuan? Show it to me! β
Guan Yan took the letter, unfolded the paper and studied it carefully.
After reading it, Guan Yan slowly put down the letter, and a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth: "Yuan Benchu's appetite is really big!" It's a pity that he doesn't know, the relationship between Ding Jianyang and me, hehe~~"
Guan Yan's fingers rhythmically tapped on the tabletop, and the sinister smile on the corner of his mouth made Zhang Liao shudder: "Lord, how to reply?" β
Guan Yan stood up and paced back and forth a few times: "Wenyuan, you immediately set off to Bingzhou, let the Duke of Jianyang stabilize Yuan Shao first, and send troops to Jizhou, and then discuss it!" β
"Whoa!" Zhang Liao clenched his fists and prepared to go out.
Guan Yan hurriedly shouted: "Slow! β
"What else does the lord command?"
Guan Yan turned around, a little worried in his heart, since Yuan Shao went to ask Ding Yuan to send troops, it means that it is possible to ask other forces to help! With Yuan Shao's identity and family background, it's really hard to say! Jizhou, Zang Ba alone may not be able to withstand it!
Thinking of this, Guan Yan continued: "Wenyuan, after you merge the state affairs are in order, immediately transfer to Jizhou and do things under General Zang first!" β
"Whoa! Is there anything else to do? β
"No, you get ready and leave early!"
"Subordinates retire!"
Looking at the figure of Zhang Liao leaving, Guan Yan straightened his clothes, it's time to go to the court!
Riding the original Jueying, Guan Yan hurriedly rushed to the palace with Dian Wei, Zhou Cang and dozens of personal guards.
The palace is still the palace, the Deyang Hall is still the Deyang Palace, the surrounding furnishings have not changed, only the people sitting on the dragon chair and the people standing in the hall have changed from before.
Han Shaodi Liu Wei still glanced at the ministers in the palace a little nervously. Dong Zhuo is gone, but that shadow has always remained in Liu Wei's mind!
The crowd was divided into two columns, shouting long live in unison, Liu Wei raised his hand mechanically, and said "flat body"
This is a person who got together: "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo Yu Li, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou beg for forgiveness!" β
Liu Wei still said mechanically: "Do you have a good plan for Zhong Aiqing? β
As soon as the words fell, Situ Wang Yun stepped out: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it must not be!" β
"Why is Wang Situ?"
"Dong Zhuo's dominance is all because of the help of the four of them! Although there is amnesty in the world today, these four people cannot be pardoned! Wang Yun replied resolutely. A number of ministers also seconded the motion.
Liu Wei was about to make an order, but he suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and raised his eyes to see that Lu Bu, who was listed at the head of the ministers, was staring at him with his eyes.
Liu Wei immediately had goosebumps on his body: "Hmm...... General Lu, what do you think? β
Lu Bu's face was a little better at this time, and he turned around and said: "Although Li and the others have helped to abuse him, but now that Dong Zhuo is dead, he also knows his guilt, so why bother to pursue it again?" β
Yuan Kui clenched his fists and replied: "Wen Hou is wrong to say this!" Li, Guo, Zhang, and Fan all came out of the barbarian land, and they didn't know what courtesy, righteousness, honesty, and shame were. If Your Majesty pardons such people, then the rebels will be even more unscrupulous in the future, and then my country will be in danger!
What Yuan Kui said was filled with righteous indignation, and his gray beard shook and trembled.
Seeing this, Liu Wei was very infected and wanted to make an order.
But where can Lu Bu swallow this breath, these old immortals always want to be against themselves, let him succeed today, where will my Lu Bu be majestic in the future?
This is Lu Bu caught a glimpse of Guan Yan, who had been keeping his head down, and suddenly said to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, why don't you ask General Zuo about his intentions?" β
