The Great World of Excitement (3)
The general trend of the world, the disturbances, and the places infested by the war are no longer just confined to a city and a pool.
The fierce fighting is not only Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou and Yuan Shao's Jizhou.
Throughout the world, there are disputes everywhere, and where there are interests, there are contradictions and conflicts.
In the south of the territory of the Han Dynasty, in the east of Yangzhou and Jiangdong, another representative figure of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu, is also lonely.
At the same time that his elder brother Yuan Benchu showed his prestige, Yuan Shu also relied on the strong foundation of the Yuan family in Nanyang and began to use the surrounding areas as a base to develop his power.
"The great river goes east, the waves are exhausted, and the eternal romantic characters. To the west of the base, humanity is, Zhou Lang Chibi of the Three Kingdoms. The rocks pierced the air, the waves crashed on the shore, and thousands of piles of snow were rolled up. The country is picturesque, and there are many heroes at one time. Thinking about Gongjin back then, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was heroic. Lupine scarf, talking and laughing, the canopy is in ashes............"
When it comes to words and phrases, the land of Jiangdong has the most influence than this.
Thousands of miles of Jianghuai, Chaohu Lake is the most beautiful, these two poems are written about Chaohu Lake.
Eight hundred miles of Chaohu Lake is stormy and snowy, and the smoke is vast, like a treasure mirror inlaid on the land of Jianghuai. The mountains in the lake are surrounded by water, the scenery is charming, and the mountains and lakes reflect each other.
Zhou Yu stood on the shore of Chaohu Lake, looking at the meeting of water and sky in the distance, a little stunned.
Obviously, he feels that he is still in the same state of mind and has no ambitions, but deep down in his heart, he has a faint unwillingness to be lonely and calm in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty.
?? You heard it right!
He is Zhou Yu, the head of the Four British Generals of Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, and the first governor of Eastern Wu later.
is the Zhou Yu who was described in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as having a narrow amount of energy, saying "both Shengyu, He Shengliang", and was finally angry to death by Zhuge Liang.
It was Zhou Yu who burned Chibi and burned Cao Cao in embarrassment; is the majestic and heroic Zhou Yu described in the song "Nian Nujiao" by Su Dongpo, a great poet of the Northern Song Dynasty; is the Zhou Yu in the sentence "Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai - one is willing to fight, one is willing to suffer"; It is the beautiful Zhou Lang who has the reputation of "the song is wrong, Zhou Lang Gu", and has Xiao Qiao as his wife.
Of course, the current Zhou Yu has not yet made great achievements, and now he is only the county magistrate of Juchao County, a small county on the edge of Chaohu Lake, and belongs to the territory of Yuan Shu.
A few months ago, Sun Ce had just borrowed his father Sun Jian's old ministry from Yuan Shu at the cost of the jade seal, and captured Jiangdong with three veterans, Han Dang, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai.
At that time, Zhou Yu's uncle Zhou Shang was the Taishou of Danyang, and Zhou Yu went to visit. Sun Ce led his troops to Liyang, preparing to cross eastward, and heard that Zhou Yu was in Danyang, so he sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhou Yu.
After receiving the letter, Zhou Yu heard that Sun Ce had raised troops, and immediately led his troops and horses to meet him and subsidized grain and grass. The two fought together, first conquered Hengjiang and Dangli, and then crossed the river with their troops, attacked Moling, defeated Zhenrong and Xue Li, and then captured Huyi and Jiangcheng, entered Qu'a, and forced Liu Xuan away.
At this time, Sun Ce's troops had grown to tens of thousands, and he felt that it was more than enough to attack the rest of the place by himself, so he asked Zhou Yu to return to Danyang.
But not long after Zhou Yu returned to Danyang, Yuan Shu replaced Zhou Yu's uncle Zhou Shang with his cousin Yuan Yin as the Danyang Taishou, and Zhou Yu followed his uncle Zhou Shang back to Shouchun to report on his work.
Yuan Shu heard that Zhou Yu was talented, and wanted to take Zhou Yu as his own use. But Zhou Yu saw that Yuan Shu was difficult to achieve great things, and he didn't like Yuan Shu as a person, so he didn't agree, and only asked to be the county magistrate of the nest, and planned to take the opportunity to return to Jiangdong here.
He is a man who does not like or want to be subjugated, and will neither bow down to power nor bow to fate. Although he is at peace with what happens, he will not let it be rubbed.
Fortunately, Yuan Shu didn't see Zhou Yu's true intentions, so he agreed to Zhou Yu's request, after all, Juchao was also under his rule and was his territory.
Zhou Yu's family is a big family, his grandfather Zhou Jing and uncle Zhou Zhong were all lieutenants of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Zhou Yu's father Zhou Yi also served as the Luoyang Commander.
At this time, the Shi clan was very powerful, especially the influence on the local area.
The officials appointed by the imperial court to manage the local area also need the support of the local clans in order to be good officials, so that the government decrees can be accessible, the people are served, and the taxes are paid correctly.
The Zhou family is a famous family in Jiangdong, and Yuan Shu's current territory is here, if he wants to better control and manage this area, he must win over the local famous families so as to get their support.
Although the Yuan family of Yuan Shu is also the fourth and third dukes, their prestige is heavier than that of the Zhou family, and their power is greater, but after all, the root system is not here, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake.
Yuan Shu replaced Zhou Shang with his cousin Yuan Yin as the Danyang Taishou, which was nepotism and his own cronies, but he was also afraid that the Zhou family would be dissatisfied.
Therefore, summoning Zhou Shang back to Shouchun also has the intention of appeasement, and Zhou Yu does not want to be his subordinate to serve him, and he is not easy to force.
Zhou Yu asked him to be the head of the nest, and he could only agree.
These concessions are actually the fact that the entire Zhou family is behind Zhou Yu's back.
In this era, the power of the family is very great.
Cao Cao was able to get into trouble, and he relied on his group of brothers and clans to support him in the early stage, and always firmly supported him.
Sun Ce's ability to successfully capture Jiangdong has a lot to do with the deep foundation and influence of his Sun family in Jiangdong.
Even if Liu Bei, who is the most self-made, can he finally score one third, hasn't he always relied on the banner of his royal status as a pro-royal of Liu Hanzong?
Heroes are born in troubled times, and heroes are created by the times.
Troubled times have broken all systems, rules and order, which often means that there are more opportunities, and there are often more than one point of effort to reap more than usual, double, triple, or even ten times or dozens of times the return.
In troubled times, the heroes are divided, and this is a good era for men and women to make contributions. With a lot of enthusiasm, he fought to be a marquis and a general, a wife and a son, and even chased the world, took charge of the country, founded the country, and won a name for eternity, so that countless descendants can pay homage and praise.
This is the charm of troubled times.
The man's husband, in this troubled time, should carry a three-foot sword and make immortal achievements.
At this moment, Zhou Yu's heart suddenly became arrogant.
As far as the eye can see, the water is wide and the sky is wide, the mind is expanded, and the vast Chaohu Lake seems to be unable to accommodate it.
He stood with his head held high, looking out at the lake, only to feel that at this moment there was indescribable high spirits and high morale, as if he had returned to the enthusiasm and vigor of his youth, and he always had endless energy, and he was full of optimism and confidence in everything in the future.
Wait for me!
In this world, it's time for our voices to sound!
