Inside Chang'an City!

On this day, Liu Bei played with the heirloom jade seal in his hand, and was thinking about how to deal with this heirloom jade seal, thinking about several cases for a long time, but he was a little hesitant!

So he sent someone to call Jia Xu, Xun You and others! But it's about discussing what to do!

After Zhang Zhao and the others came, Zhang Zhao opened his mouth and said, "Lord, what is the so-called matter of looking for us to come?" ”

"I think you already know that I found the long-lost heirloom jade seal in Luoyang before, but these days, I have thought about it again and again, but I haven't figured out how to deal with this heirloom jade seal! I wonder what you can do? Liu Bei asked!

"Lord, although the Son of Heaven has six seals, but the jade seal of the country is the most, and the lord has passed on the jade seal of the country, which is enough to prove that the lord is the person of destiny.

The lord can hold this jade seal, and after the situation is stable, the lord can hold the back of this jade seal and call the emperor! I believe that no one in the world can attack the lord again! Zhang Zhao said!

"I have also considered this Fawu, but to dominate the world is to rely on power, not to rely on the jade seal, if he occupies the entire Central Plains, who will think that I am not worthy of being the Son of Heaven? I don't think this method can expand my strength! Liu Bei explained!

"Lord, the words of Zibu are safe words, and the jade seal of the country is a symbol of the Son of Heaven.

However, I think that now that the heirloom jade seal has been found, there should be no more cases where anyone will discard or damage it!

Therefore, he suggested whether the lord could give it to a certain prince, and then induce the princes to become emperors, so that the princes could be induced to fight!

And the lord has the advantage of three passes, but he can overlook the melee of the princes of the Central Plains! Jia Xu suggested!

"This is indeed a clever plan, but which prince should I give it to?" Liu Bei asked!

Zhang Zhao saw that his previous suggestion had not been adopted, so he began to suggest again: "Lord, if you choose princes, you should choose Yuan Shao, so that you can lead Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao to send troops to attack Yuan Shao." And we can call Cao Cao's empty army a plan to attack the Tiger Prison Pass! ”

"Well, it's a choice, it's just that Cao Cao shouldn't be so careless, and I think I'm building a new pass in the Tiger Prison Pass, so it's not the best choice for us!" Liu Bei said!

"In this way, it will be sent to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu is located in Nanyang, and is preparing to attack Yangzhou, once it gets the land of Yangzhou, then get the jade seal, and the ambition will be extremely inflated, and the jade seal will be called the emperor!" Zhang Zhao suggested again!

"My lord, as Zibu said, Yuan Shu is indeed the best choice, and there are four reasons: first, Yuan Shu is located in the center of the Central Plains, and if he is called emperor, it will inevitably cause Sun Ce, Liu Biao, Cao Cao, Tao Qian and others to besiege;

Second, Yuan Shu is arrogant, and the fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu gets the jade seal, and then Yangzhou, he will inevitably be called the emperor;

Third, there are many people in Yangzhou, once everyone besieges it, Yuan Shu can also hold on for a while longer, and he can leave some more time for the lord to recuperate!

Fourth, Yuan Shu called the emperor, the lord can send troops from Hangu Pass and Tongguan to attack Wuguan, if Wuguan is taken, then the Central Plains has nothing to do with defending, and the lord is invincible! Chen Gong also nodded in agreement when he heard this!

"Since this is the case, I will send an envoy to Yuan Shu on this day." Liu Bei said, and then turned to Xun You and said, "Gongda, I haven't seen you speak today, why is it?" ”

"Lord, I'm thinking about it, why does the lord have to send the jade seal of the country out? Why don't you let Yuan Shu exchange things for them? Population, food, weapons, horses, and more! Xun Yu said while thinking!

"Oh, then Gongda said, what should I exchange with Yuan Shu for?" Liu Bei was interested, and then asked!

"Lord, Yuan Shu is now appointed as the assassin of Yangzhou, so Nanyang is not his place! Why didn't the lord exchange with Yuan Shu for Wuguan and Nanyang?

If Yuan Shu agrees, the lord can exchange the jade seal of the country for the land of Nanyang County, and he will also have to pass the Wuguan Pass in Zhongzhong! Xun You suggested again!

"It's a good idea, but it's not easy to achieve!" Liu Bei was a little moved, but he felt that it was a little difficult to do!

"Lord, I am willing to send Yuan Shu to conspire to seize Nanyang and Wuguan for the lord!" Xun You opened his mouth and said!

Then Liu Bei ordered Xun Yu to send an envoy to Yuan Shu after January!

"My lord, my subordinates have sorted out the government affairs of various places during this time, Liangzhou, Yongzhou and Ningzhou have not rained for three months, and it is estimated that there will be a major drought in the three states now." Zhang Zhao said!

"In this way, it is best to transfer materials and food to the three states of Yong, Liang and Ning, so as to ensure that no people will starve to death in the three states!"

"Also, send soldiers to maintain law and order in the three states, and once it is found that during the great drought there are speculative businessmen and people who disturb the peace; Those who raise prices will be arrested and severely punished! Liu Bei said!

In the end, Liu Bei also decided that the people of the six states under his jurisdiction during the Han Dynasty would recuperate and recuperate, and no longer use swords and soldiers! Then Liu Bei also commanded two thousand women's troops out of Chang'an and inspected Sanzhou!

………

And while Liu Bei and Cao Cao were recuperating, the other princes in the world were brewing a big war!

The first to launch was Gongsun Zhan, who greatly increased his power after receiving Tian Kai's support, and then waved his army to the north, but conquered Liu Yu!

In the early years, when Gongsun Zhan was the governor of Liaodong, although he fought bravely, he failed to get too much advantage in the war.

Then, when Liu Yu assassinated the history of Youzhou, he pacified the ethnic minorities in Youzhou, but achieved outstanding results, thus solving the problem of the minority ethnic groups in the north!

However, after the matter ended, both Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu received commendations from the Han court, Liu Yu was promoted to the position of Grand Sima, and Gongsun Chan was promoted to general of Fenwu.

However, the relationship between the two has not improved because of this, and they are still inseparable.

Gongsun Zhan means that the hearts of the waste race will be different, and Liu Yu really wants to focus on pacification, supplemented by conquest! Then after a series of conflicts, the two completely turned against each other!

After Liu Yu was appointed as the pastor of Youzhou, he adopted his own policy of appeasing all the ethnic minorities in the north, so that Gongsun Chan had no source of military exploits.

Later, Liu Yu was repeatedly commended by the imperial court for appeasing ethnic minorities, and even became one of the three dukes, but Gongsun Zan stayed where he was.

However, the key point of the first outbreak of the contradiction is that Wu Huan

When Qiu Liju and other foreign tribes sent envoys to communicate with Liu Yu about the annexation, Gongsun Zhan secretly sent people to assassinate the envoy on the way.

So the contradiction between the two intensified for the first time!

Later, when Emperor Han Xian was controlled by Dong Zhuo, Emperor Han Xian sent Liu Yu's son Liu He to escape from Luoyang to find Liu Yu and let Liu Yu lead his troops to serve the king.

However, Liu He crossed the Wuguan and told Yuan Shu about it when he passed through Yuan Shu's Nanyang on the way.

In order to make himself emperor as soon as possible, Yuan Shu secretly detained Liu He, and pretended to promise to act together, so that Liu He sent a letter to Liu Yu to only send a few thousand cavalry to delay time.

After receiving the letter, Liu Yu believed that it was true, and really only sent 3,000 cavalry for Liu He to send.

And Gongsun Zhan saw Yuan Shu's intentions and once dissuaded Liu Yu not to send troops, but Liu Yu did not accept it.

After Gongsun Zhan's kindness was rejected by Liu Yu, he was afraid that Liu He's success would be successful, so he asked his brother to lead 3,000 cavalry to set off with Liu Yu's soldiers!

At the same time, he secretly instigated Gongsun Fan to instigate Yuan Shu to continue to detain Liu He and rob the soldiers and horses sent by Liu Yu.

In this way, Liu Yu, who originally wanted to be rescued by King Qin, was put on a table by Gongsun Zhan, and the relationship between the two immediately became tense. This is also the second outbreak of contradictions!!

Two years ago, when Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao's people fought at Jieqiao, Liu Yu wanted to get rid of Gongsun Chan when Gongsun Chan was defeated, but someone advised Liu Yu not to do it.

Then someone secretly reported the matter to Gongsun Zhan, so Gongsun Chan began to be wary of Liu Yu, and now, Gongsun Zan wants to lead troops to attack Liu Yu.
