The princes of the three parties fought fiercely in Chaoge and Hujiao Pass, and the two sides invested nearly 200,000 troops, standing on Lugu Mountain, looking at the military camp that stretched for nearly 100 miles on the Muye Plain, Long Yang smacked his lips helplessly, don't look at the strength of the Blazing Sky Army. But this also needs a degree, the other party has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, how can the Blazing Sky Army have a chance to eat the other party, but it is also a waste of time on Lugu Mountain, so Long Yang thought about it and decided to send troops to Jizhou, reduce the pressure of the state army, and block the reinforcements from the direction of Jizhou.

At the end of March, the Blazing Sky Army crossed the Zhangshui River and suddenly appeared outside Yecheng. The whole city shook in an instant, but Yuan Shao was also the fourth and third dukes, and there were many protégés and former officials, and in the face of the arrival of the Blazing Sky Army, the city immediately sealed the four gates, and then let Yuan Tan lead the troops to garrison the four cities. Hearing this, Long Yang pursed his lips, raised his middle finger disdainfully at Yecheng, and then led his troops to the north to kill.

In mid-April, the news of the Blazing Sky Army approaching Jizhou reached Chang'an, and everyone in the Military Aircraft Department was very helpless, but they also admired Long Yang's boldness, daring to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to shuttle through Jizhou, and this courage was probably only comparable to Long Jun. So the Military Aircraft Administration ordered that all the departments of the Skynet in Jizhou fully cooperate with the Blazing Sky Army to prevent the other party from intercepting it inside Jizhou.

At the same time, Yuan Shao, who was in Muye, also knew about the matter, and compared with Yecheng's response, Yuan Shao was more daring, and directly ordered the entire territory of Jizhou to clear the wilderness, and let this army make trouble. But as soon as he gave this order, Yuan Shao learned a shocking good news, Zhang Liaobu, who had attacked Jingcheng, was defeated by Zhang He and Fu in Shangai and retreated to Taihang Mountain.

"Hahahaha, it's good, it's worthy of Zhang Junyi, it's really good!" Laughing, Yuan Shao got up and shouted, "Order Zhang He to let him bring troops to help, and order Fu Zhu to find a way to annihilate the Bingzhou army that has entered Jizhou, and must not give the other party a chance to get close to Jingcheng, our army can't enter the mountain, so don't try to open up the situation there." ”

On the same day, the order was sent from Makino. At the same time, Lu Bu and Chen Gong also learned the news of Zhang Liao's defeat of Shang Ai, Lu Bu wanted to deal with Zhang Liao, but considering that the battle was not over, he transferred 10,000 soldiers and horses from Chaoge to aid Zhang Liao's troops according to Chen Gong's suggestion, and strictly ordered Zhang Liao not to attack wantonly, and wait for Chaoge to divide the victory and defeat here.

The situation of the battle has eroded to such an extent that it is beyond everyone's expectations, including Long Jun of Chang'an. When he learned that Zhang Liao was defeated by Fu Zhu and Zhang He, he couldn't help but feel worried about the state army, if Fu Zhu was in Chaoge, it would be fine, at least where Chen Gong was staring, Fu Zhu couldn't make any big waves. But once this person is allowed to lead the army alone, it is impossible to say that this battle will have unexpected results. So, Long Jun directly ordered Yan Nai and ordered him to lead a group to aid the Blazing Sky Army and find a way to kill Fu Zhi.

In the face of Long Jun's such a strange order, Guo Jia and the others were secretly surprised, just an unknown strategist, why did Long Jun attach so much importance to it. However, after Long Jun came up with the report of the Battle of the Boundary Bridge, several people understood what Long Jun was doing. Looking at the introduction of frustration, Guo Jia exclaimed, "This person's talent is not below Chen Gong, especially above us." ”

"The name is not obvious in the world, so it can be concluded that this person is not valued by Yuan Shao, and it is a miracle!" Xu Shu, who also knew the identity of the frustrated professor, was secretly surprised. A person with such a talent is actually unknown, if it weren't for Skynet's help, I'm afraid that the Guanzhong Army would not have known that there was such a person when they entered Jizhou.

Hearing the two of them praising the frustration, Long Jun explained with a smile, "It is rumored that the frustration is arrogant and arrogant, and he has repeatedly contradicted Yuan Shao, which has caused Yuan Shao to be extremely resentful, plus the frustration supports the eldest son Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shang and his mother Liu are also dissatisfied with it, so Yuan Shao does not want to see the frustration at all, if it is not for the future of Jizhou, I am afraid that the frustration should be in prison at this moment!" ”

"If so, my lord, shall we take it upon you? Let Yan Sili capture it, and you will be moved by emotion in your understanding. After all, your reputation is not weaker than Yuan Shao, even if he values the prestige of Yuan Shao's fourth and third dukes, with you coming forward in person, he must not refuse in words! After listening to Long Jun's explanation, Xun You was very frustrated and unworthy, like a few of them, according to Tianwang's news, the lives of several people had already been placed on the tables of the princes of all parties, and Fu Zhu was still in danger of prison.

"Forget it, if this person really has the heart to join other forces, I'm afraid he will leave by himself! I don't feel that he values Yuan Shao's name as the fourth world and the third duke, but he thinks that Yuan Shao can achieve a certain expectation in his heart, it is a matter of faith, how many people do you think will easily give up their beliefs? Although Long Jun also had expectations for Frustration, Cao Cao had not been able to recruit this person in his previous life, which was enough to see that this Frustration was not the kind of person who believed in interests.

Seeing that a few people had figured out the key to this, Long Jun clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and said in a deep voice, "The war between the two sides, let's put it aside for the time being, and then I have a few things to tell you." Since we have decided to use Wenhe's strategy, then in the end, we will definitely go to the imperial court in Taiyuan. But once the imperial court is received by our side to Chang'an, it will definitely conflict with our unique internal affairs, which is related to our foundation, what do you think? ”

In fact, since Long Jun approved Jia Xu's plan at the beginning, everyone took this matter into consideration, but they saw that Long Jun had never mentioned it, so they didn't dare to express any opinions easily. After that day, Guo Jia, as the director of the Military Aircraft Department, held a meeting with them in private, asking them to pay attention to the identities of everyone in the future. Don't look at Long Jun who doesn't care about this, but if Long Jun goes further in the future, there will be more colleagues, and the impact of speaking without authorization can be imagined.

"What? Don't you have any ideas? Seeing that everyone was silent, Long Jun glanced at Guo Jia, of course Long Jun knew about that meeting, but he couldn't teach Guo Jia a lot of things because of this, right? Moreover, Guo Jia's behavior also shows his loyalty, and he is embarrassed to reprimand Guo Jia for many things. After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one had spoken, Long Jun had no choice but to say his intentions.

"Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the selection of officials has always been carried out by promoting filial piety and honesty, which involves party disputes, gate valves, and old times, so it has caused chaos in the court. When I was in Luoyang, the scholars, the royal family, the eunuchs, and His Majesty, these were the four forces, so I took this opportunity to improve the return journey of the officials. Speaking of this, Long Jun took out a plan that had been prepared and threw it on the tables of several people.

When they opened it and took a closer look, Long Jun continued, "There is also the official system, although Emperor Guangwu revoked the prime minister system and increased the rights of the three princes and nine secretaries, but since Emperor Huan, the three princes and the nine kings have united to restrict the imperial power, if it were not for the emergence of the eunuch party, I am afraid that the rights of the three princes and nine secretaries are not smaller than the prime minister." To this end, I intend to overthrow the system of three princes and nine secretaries and establish a system of three provinces and six ministries! In the last few pages of this plan, I have indicated the functions and powers of the three provinces and six ministries, so you can take a look at them first. ”

Reform the bureaucracy? The news was like a drop of water dripping into boiling oil, and the faces of the five people were very solemn. Long Jun's move is no less than Wang Mang, he just took over the imperial court and wantonly reformed the official system, isn't this waiting for the princes to jointly crusade against Guanzhong? So Guo Jia took the lead in objecting, "The lord wants to reform the official system, and his subordinates have long been aware of it, but we have just taken over the imperial court, so we will do this, is it a bit rushed?" Besides, I just took a look at the lord's plan, and the system of three provinces and six ministries can indeed ensure the stability of the imperial power, but these six ministries have long existed in Chang'an, but I haven't seen anything special! ”

"That's right, my lord! The reform of the official system is related to the fundamentals of the world, and the three provinces and six ministries seem to be novel, but in fact they are the same as the three princes and nine secretaries! According to what you said, the three provinces and six ministries can concentrate the imperial power, but what is the difference between the cabinet in your plan and the prime minister? Isn't that the same as establishing relative authority? Although a few of us and a few others don't care about this matter, it is difficult to guarantee that future generations will not unite together! ”

After Xun Yu finished speaking, Xu Shu and Xun You also objected one after another, this matter is not big or small, they are not afraid of being enemies of the world, and they are not afraid of losing the rights in their hands, but they are afraid that Long Jun will delay the development of Guanzhong because of the reform. Don't look at Guanzhong's current momentum, but once it is contrary to the world's ideas, then even if there is natural danger, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no internal problems.

On this occasion, Long Jun smiled slightly, and turned his gaze to the silent Jia Xu, Guo Jia and the others were thinking about him, so he couldn't refute it, but Jia Xu was different, he preferred to dig deep into the inside, turn everything to the surface, and let others refer to it. So in the warning eyes of everyone and Long Jun's expectant eyes, Jia Xu said with a smile: "Since the lord understands what the four of them are thinking, why do you want me to be this wicked person?" Moreover, the four of you also know the benefits of these three provinces and six departments, so why do you have to be embarrassed by the lord? Don't forget that the princes of the Kwantung region once ridiculed us as barbarians, so didn't we happen to follow this name by doing so? ”

As soon as the words fell, Guo Jia snorted coldly, and retorted to Jia Xu with an angry face, "But once you fail, you know what happened to the Lord Guild who made this matter with all its might!" Guanzhong middle-level officials and above may support the lord, but will those at the bottom understand the lord's good intentions? Since Guangwu to the present, the Three Princes and Nine Qing have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the reform has become an evil demon in the hearts of the world. Do you Jia Wenhe dare to guarantee that everyone in Guanzhong is of the same mind as the lord? Don't forget that in today's Shilin, there is still disdain for Tai Academy, those families that have been beaten still exist in the world, and the court officials are right..."

Seeing that Jia Xu was pushed off the stage by Guo Jia, Long Jun hurriedly stretched out his right hand to stop Guo Jia's next words, and stopped him, "Fengxiao, don't get excited, Wenhe is just expounding his own opinion, why are you talking like that!" ”

Who would have thought that Jia Xu didn't care about this at all, got up and saluted Long Jun, and after thanking Long Jun for his kindness, Jia Xu turned his gaze to Guo Jia and smiled, "I know what Feng Xiaojun said, but I don't know if the four of you have thought about a problem, since the chaos in the world, although the official positions in my Guanzhong are all from the lord's edict, but in fact, you all know that once the princes stand on their own, the official positions will be chaotic." There is a Liangzhou pastor in Guanzhong, won't Jizhou have it? In order to break this off and give us a firm foothold in the general righteousness, a new bureaucracy must exist, and it is one that no other princes can understand. ”

Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, Long Jun chuckled when he saw this, got up and said, "It's noon, let's discuss it after lunch, anyway, there is plenty of time recently, everyone, please!" ”

"My lord, please!"
