Chapter 19: The Dream of the World Returns to the View (7k barely 2-in-1 continues)
Xun Yu and Guo Jia are the most intelligent people in the world, they have been in Yecheng for more than a year, but they actually saw through the situation early, and after meeting Guan Yu, they strengthened their respective determinations.
Therefore, after the ferry at the confluence of sewage and Qingzhang water was separated on this day, the two did not hesitate to take their own actions immediately. On this side, Guo Fengxiao went all the way north, caught up with Guan Yunchang, and then entered Handan together without mentioning; On the other hand, after Xun Wenruo returned to Yecheng, he immediately called for the mobilization of the clansmen to return to their hometowns.
There were many responders, mainly because Xun Yu's previous foresight was too impressive.
Thinking that back then, before the Kanto Dynasty was to fight Dong, Han Fu sent people to Yingchuan to pick up his family, and Xun Yu immediately called on the clansmen to abandon the land of Xiangzi with other relatives and relatives, and take the opportunity to leave Yingchuan, which is located in the heart of the Central Plains, to avoid the disaster of war...... Those who came with them basically survived, and those who didn't come with them depended on luck, but it is said that a lot of them died.
And how could this kind of intelligence, which was verified with the lives of unknown relatives, not convince these Yingchuan people who had taken refuge?
So, three days later, not only the Xun clan members who had already made plans in private, but also many Yingchuan villagers who were not surnamed Xun also packed up and took the initiative to return to their hometowns.
And the most noteworthy of this is that Han Fu and Han Jizhou, who had sent the seal ribbon before, also took his family out of the city and returned to his hometown with Xun Yu.
There is no way, in the past three days, that is, in the few days after Guan Yu's threat disappeared, Yecheng was actually not very peaceful - in the past, they relied on Han Fu to survive, and some Yingchuan old people who held the power in Yecheng today suddenly arrested and immediately executed Geng Wu and Min Chun, the two most resolute anti-Yuan factions that day, on the night when Yecheng was released from military control.
Things happened quickly, and Yecheng was at a loss, and he didn't know if it was Yuan Shao himself, or Guo Tu and others wanted to help their lord clean the house in advance, so they did it without permission...... Anyway, things are there, unclear, not embarrassing.
By this time, Han Fu had actually had some fear.
However, what really made him make up his mind was not this incident, but that he didn't know if this arrest gave some fools a bad signal, or if it was originally the follow-up plan of Xin Ping, Guo Tu and others - on the second day, a general who had been punished by Han Fu, called Zhu Han by Hanoi, actually led troops to surround Zhang Rang's house where Han Fu lived, trying to take revenge!
Han Wenjie inexplicably got the news from the old ministry and fled in a hurry, but his eldest son was caught by Zhu Han, and then Zhu Han inexplicably broke his leg in public!
After this incident, there was naturally an uproar in the city!
It seems that they probably understand the bad nature of this matter, so without waiting for the city to rebound, Xin Ping, Guo Tu, Xun Chen and others quickly caught Zhu Han, and then immediately beheaded him in public, and personally took Zhu Han's head to Han Fu to ask for his guilt...... However, just a few days after losing his military power, he was hit by such a thing, Han Fu was completely frightened, how could he still trust them? So he proposed in public on the spot that he wanted to return to his hometown with Xun Yu and others to study.
In other words, Guo Tu and others have discussed the departure of Xun Yu and many fellow villagers...... After all, unlike Guo Fengxiao, who has just been crowned with no good reputation and few people care, Xun Wenruo was famous in the Central Plains at a young age, known as Wang Zuozhicai, and then although he was young, he also did the positions of the Yellow Gate Squire, the palace guard, etc., which is considered to have some qualifications, and also moved to avoid disasters, which is quite popular among the people of Yingchuan.
Moreover, the reason put forward by Xun Yu is that there will be a big war in Hebei, and although Yecheng is strong and majestic, it is next to the front line, but it is not as livable as the area around Yingchuan after being stabilized because of the alliance between Sun Cao and Liu, doesn't this imply that Yuan Cheqi can't even keep Yecheng?
Besides, the Yingchuan people have gone too much, how will they compete with the Hebei people and Yanzhou people in the future?
But having said that, as soon as he came, Xun Yu's brother Xun Chen came out to help Yuan Shao do things seriously, everyone is their own people, and they can't get along with it; Second, everyone also understands that the war is imminent, and this matter is nothing compared to pacifying the hearts of the local people in Hebei and attacking Handan; Thirdly, it is precisely because of Xun Yu's own excellence and Xun's status among the leaders of Yingchuan that people like Guo Tu and Xin Ping don't want him to stay......
And now, Han Fu is in this situation, and the lord asks to go, but they are entangled in the province, and it happens that Xun Yu's matter is pushed down the river!
In this way, Xun Yu and the others not only traveled smoothly, but also received an official subsidy, and successfully left Yecheng, where they had lived for more than a year, before Yuan Shao settled in, and then went south together.
Although this road passed through the state and crossed the county, crossed the river and waded through the water, but as Xun Wenruo said when he persuaded his fellow villagers before, not to mention the directors, the early annexation and covenant of the princes were also universally completed, and the dangerous war situation was mainly concentrated on the edge of the power of the great princes, and the northern region of the Central Plains seemed to be a place where the forces were intertwined, but in fact, it was already a relatively stable place.
Therefore, this group of people not only had a smooth road, but also because of the carriages and horses, so at the end of June and the beginning of July, they quickly and successfully returned home.
Of course, after returning home, there was a moment of joy, and then an endless sentimentality...... After all, as one of the main battlefields of the previous fight against Dong, this place suffered a great deal of military disasters and many people fled. The place where our ancestors have lived for hundreds of years suddenly becomes so withered and empty, and the four words "things are people and people" are the most likely to make people feel sad.
And after a period of sadness, everyone said goodbye to each other, went home, repaired the house and tidied up the fields, picked wild vegetables to save food, and paid homage to the dead people, anyway, there was always something to do...... As for some of the old people who stayed in the local area and survived, it was even more embarrassing to see that they had returned to their relatives on a large scale and also distributed a lot of precious food to help.
"Zixu, foolish brother, I'll ask you something else," In the old mansion of the Xun family in Gaoyangli, at the junction of Yingyin County and Xu County in the west, as the head of the Xun family at this time, Xun Yu was chatting with a young local old man. "Since you have stayed in the local area by mistake, and your home is in Dingling in the south, then please tell the foolish brother sincerely, what is the situation here in the Central Plains?"
In other words, the person who was asked was called Du Xi, and the word Zixu was a native of Dingling, Yingchuan, and he was just crowned this year. Before the war, he and Chen Qun, Chen Changwen, Xin Bi Xin George, Zhao Yan and Zhao Boran were called together because of their similar age and prominent family...... Counting it up, it should be Xun Yu's new generation of Yingchuan Junjie in the next generation.
Of course, this kind of pre-war atmosphere is to consider the family and personal morality at the same time, so even if they are of the same age, there is no Guo Fengxiao, who is chivalrous and uncontrolled, and there is no Xu Yuanzhi, a poor boy who has been a thief, and there is even a literary Fanqin, who has no shortage of family or anything, but because there are only four celebrities and no five, so he was defeated, which is even worse.
Back to the present, this generation of Yingchuan talents, because it was not them who were in charge before, but their parents, so they generally did not choose to respond to Xun Yu's call, so that they were hit by the war, and most of their parents withered in the war. Therefore, after discussing the directors, seeing that Yuan Shu was becoming more and more disagreeable, they could only choose Jingzhou or Xu Yang to avoid trouble...... But I don't know if it's bad luck or luck, just when Du Xian, Zhao Yan, and Fanqin contacted each other, preparing to get rich and join their families, and detour from Runan to Jingzhou together, suddenly Sun Jian turned against Yuan, and Runan and Nanyang became the most chaotic places in the whole world, so they stayed again.
Now, seeing that the old ones have returned home, several of them young people naturally went out one after another to try to help one or two.
"In the next kid who has just been crowned, how can he understand the situation in the Central Plains?" Du Xian, who was sitting cross-legged on a broken mat under the tree, smiled bitterly when he heard this. "I can only tell Brother Wen Ruo about what I probably know below......
"Come on."
"Now in the chaos of the Central Plains, a total of six princes are involved, the so-called three major and three small. the three majors, Yuan Shu, Liu Jingzhou, and Tao Xuzhou; The three youngest, Sun Jian, Liu Yuzhou, and Cao Fenwu. Du Xi opened his mouth and talked eloquently. And look at it below......"
Xun Yu, who was sitting opposite the broken mat, couldn't help laughing: "Zixu and live, how can Liu Jingzhou and Tao Xuzhou be Yuan Shu?" Liu Yuzhou and Cao Fenwu are Sun Jian? β
"What else?" Du Xun pouted and shook his head. "Naturally, these two people are unpopular. Especially Yuan Shu, who is obviously the fourth and third dukes, is the people of the Central Plains, and everywhere in the Central Plains, there are a few officials who are not their Yuan family's protΓ©gΓ©s, and how many families are not inextricably linked with their Yuan family? β
Xun Yu smiled slightly and did not comment.
"However, in the past two years, he has been in Nanyang, controlling our Yingchuan and Runan at the same time, and remotely controlling Huainan, obviously with a large number of troops and sufficient goods, but he can't stabilize the place, help the crisis and chaos, but insist on asking for too much!" Du Zixu, who was encouraged by the other party, became more and more angry the more he spoke. "Many of the families and people below starved to death, but he drank only honey and water. The scholars advised him to calm down the place and win over the hearts of the people, but instead he trusted the tyrants of those places, even the bandits, and indulged these people to plunder the place; Not to mention, he actually sent someone to assassinate Chen Guoxiang, Luo Jun, and Luo Xiaoyuan before...... In short, this person has been in the Central Plains for two years, and his true form has been revealed, and he is by no means a person who can rely on to stabilize the world, but a source of chaos! Now that Sun Jian is against him, his people are being attacked on all sides, and they have been defeated in successive battles, and it is natural to think that it is also a cycle of heavenly principles, and it should be! β
"What about Tao Xuzhou and Liu Jingzhou?" Xun Yu was noncommittal, and continued to ask, but he temporarily put Sun Jian behind.
"Tao Xuzhou and Liu Jingzhou, one is known for being strict and rigid, and the other is known for being lenient and soft......" Du Zixu calmed down a little and continued to answer. But there is always a place to settle down. However, Tao Xuzhou was far to the east, and he only joined the chaos by supporting Liu Yuzhou, and he had no intention of directly intervening; And Liu Jingzhou, after all, is in Xiangyang, if Yuan Shu is destroyed in the future, he may be able to rely on ...... But you have to be careful of Sun Jian. β
"What is Sun Wentai's posture now?" Seeing that the other party did not leave Sun Wentai, Xun Yu could only follow the other party and ask this person first. "Yuan Highway demanded excessively, and he fought back, isn't it just in response to the hearts of the people? Why do you keep getting bored? β
"Sun Wentai Wu Luojia in the Central Plains." Du Xun also got serious. "When he helped Yuan Shu that day, Yuan Shu was unstoppable in the Central Plains, and now he is against Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu is also defeated...... As of last month, his people have broken through most of Runan and are marching into Nanyang, and the momentum is indeed like a tiger eating, and he is really the only person in the limelight in the Central Plains. However, his martial arts style is unpopular...... The things that helped Yuan Shu in the past, how could he erase them once he repeated them? Today's government is careless, but he blindly uses troops to be strong, and he can't be changed in a moment, so the whole county is disgusted with him second only to Yuan Shu. β
"I see." Xun Yu thought for a moment and slowly bowed his head.
"Oh, there's one more thing." Du Xun suddenly said again. He didn't know how to produce and accumulate, and he was short of grain and grass, so he basically relied on Cao Fenwu's support, so after his people took most of Runan, they gave Cao Fenwu a reward for Chen Guo, who was very disgusted with him...... Anyway, Chen Guo was there, and he couldn't stay for a moment. β
Xun Yu's heart moved: "How can Cao Fenwu have food?"
"Cao Fenwu is a native of northern Henan, and the local clans are willing to take out food to help him, and his people have collected the exiled army and the people very early, and they have soldiers, food, and background, and can be a corporal of Lixian, everyone says that he is a person who can do things, and they are willing to obey him." Du Xun continued. However, the problem with Cao Fenwu was that although he was from a higher background, he was not enough to annex states and counties with his family like the Yuan family; Although the strength is there, it is not enough to affect the overall situation; Wu Luo also has it, but it is not as aggressive as Sun Wentai; Even when it comes to winning people's hearts, he only took advantage of his hometown, and Liu Yuzhou may not be weaker than him. β
"What is the situation of Liu Yuzhou now?" Xun Yu couldn't help but be curious. "He has both a martial name and a righteous reputation, as well as Tao Xuzhou's support, and according to Zixu, you say, he can still win people...... I guess I've already opened up the situation, right? β
"Not bad." Du Xun responded calmly. "Liu Yuzhou is based on the six counties in the south of Peiguo, and 3,000 soldiers have risen, and now it is only March or May, but it is already about to conquer Huainan...... I heard that in Jiujiang and Lujiang, scholars and heroes are more willing to follow him, that is, we are here, because he is a serious Yuzhou Fangbo, Xuzhou, because Zhang Zibu is the person under the general government, and there are also people who have voted for it, first, they feel that Huainan is safe to avoid trouble, and secondly, they also want to see the future of this Liu Yuzhou...... By the way, Chen Changwen and his father went to Runan very early to avoid trouble, and this time they also took the opportunity to vote for Liu Yuzhou, I heard that Chen Gong was very important there, and Changwen was also particularly valued by Liu Yuzhou. β
"Huainan?" Xun Yu sighed for a while. "It's too far...... But according to what you said, the real heroes of the Central Plains princes are just Cao and Liu, right? β
"And Liu Jingzhou......"
"Liu Jingsheng and his people, I have a lot of contacts in Luozhong." Xun Wenruo responded calmly. "This person can be a famous minister of the three princes in ordinary times, but in troubled times, he can only be a household dog, not enough to be called a hero! Just like Tao Xuzhou's rigidity, it is inevitable that he will be old, and Yuan Highway is the fourth and third dukes, but it is just a dry bone in the grave! β
Du Xi was young, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be in a trance, but he leaned down and bowed to the seat, claiming to be taught.
"Teachable what?" Xun Yufu smiled slightly. Although Cao and Liu have a heroic spirit, they are not immune to being trapped in the situation at this time, one is caught in Chen Guo and Liang Guo, and the other is trapped in Jiujiang and Lujiang...... And what trapped these two people was not Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, and Tao Qian, but it was their brother-in-law, Sun Wentai, the Jiangdong Tiger who held Runan and Yingchuan, and was still attacking Nanyang...... Unless Sun Jian defeats himself, it will be a dead end. β
"Can Sun Wentai defeat himself?" Du Xun shook his head for a moment. "In the troubled times, there are many stories of these martial artists who rely on their ability to kill people and jump up and overturn, but there are very few people who are as good at introspection as this Jiangdong tiger and turn in time...... Although we don't want to be out of him, we have to admit that under his rule, we can always live a stable life. β
Xun Yu's face was calm, and he bowed slightly.
In other words, Xun Yu is worthy of being the top wise man in the world in this era, although he has just returned to the Central Plains, just listening to his fellow villagers talk about the situation in the Central Plains in the past few months, he has already guessed that Liu Bei and Cao Cao were trapped and killed in the corner by Sun Jian.
Cao Cao naturally needless to say, he was dancing on three eggs, and the territory was surrounded by Gongsun Xun, Yuan Shao, and Sun Jian, and at the same time, Liu Bei, in the state that Lujiang was about to start, also fell into the upcoming strategic dilemma - the enemy was Yuan Shu, and all the political righteousness and covenant righteousness came from besieging Yuan Highway, and then at this time, the road to Yuan Shu's territory was covered by Sun Jian and Liu Biao.
Moreover, Liu Bei is not without troubles, for example, with the recent war between Runan and Nanyang, more and more Huaibei people have defected to him, but his subordinates are immediately divided into Huainan faction and Huaibei faction, and they are constantly fighting with each other...... These things, of course, are headaches, but there is no way to do it, the people of Youzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou from the north naturally encroached on the interests of the local people in the two counties of Huainan, but the latter, as the defeated and conquered in the war against Yuan, can only live under these people, how can they be willing?
In fact, this kind of regional dispute, in this year, in the era of great chaos in the world, has always been the most serious internal problem of each political group - Gongsun Xun and the three auxiliary people scolded the Northland people as a dog hat party; Yuan Shao was even more clearly divided into factions according to geography; Yizhou, where the Dongzhou Shi and the Yizhou natives openly went to war; In Jiaozhou, the local Shixie and the foreign Zhu family each have half of each, as if they were going to have a military duel; In Xuzhou, Tao Qian's indulgence of the Danyang soldiers caused a serious backlash among the locals; Sun Jian's place, none of the local scholars looked up to him......
In fact, if you really calculate carefully, at this time, the princes of the world seem to be a Cao Mengde, all kinds of upper and lower integration, all kinds of unity, but who made his territory a circle of his hometown?
As for Liu Bei, Liu Xuande is not an immortal, how can he avoid this kind of thing? Or simply the opposite, it is always a little embarrassing for him to occupy the two richest counties in Yangzhou because of the support of Xuzhou. Moreover, his experience in governing politics is fundamentally zero, and he can only rely on people from the north such as Zhang Zhao, Chen Ji (Chen Qun's father), and Yuan Jian in government affairs...... Therefore, this issue is extremely serious for Liu Bei.
"Yide wants to take leave?!"
On the evening of this day, Liu Xuande returned to Shouchun, where he temporarily lived, from Shaobei, a Mintun point in Huainan, and was already exhausted, just took off his boots and soaked his feet, but unexpectedly ushered in an unexpected news, and then smiled bitterly for a while. "Most of the wars in the two counties have calmed down, and Runan has also fallen into the hands of Brother Wentai, a little banditry, but it is not as fast as Ziyang and Youping...... He is already fine, so how can he talk about taking leave? β
Jian Yong, who reported the news, disregarded etiquette, turned around and sat directly on Liu Bei's couch, and then lay down with his head up: "It is precisely because he knows that there is no war in Huainan in the short term that Yide took leave." β
Liu Bei was silent for a while, and seemed to have become the moody Liu Yuzhou on weekdays, and after a while, he stared at the wooden barrel full of hot water under his feet and asked: "Listen to Xianhe, what does this mean, is it that Yide has already left?" β
"Yes, yes." Jian Yong sat up from the couch and sighed cross-legged. "He probably didn't want to embarrass you, and he asked me to tell Xuande to you, only to say that he would definitely come back again......"
"I know, I know all of this." Liu Bei suddenly grabbed a dry cloth and hurriedly wiped his feet, but just wiped it twice, he threw the dry cloth to the ground a little frustrated, and his feet were submerged in the water again. "Yide, don't look at it as an official for many years, on the surface, he is becoming more and more calm and polite, but in his bones he is still the selfless Yandi Ranger in his heart...... Received favors, and tried his best to repay them! With the enemy, regardless of life and death, the other party will be picked off the horse! My brother Wenqi is so kind to him, if he can't repay it, he will be haunted for the rest of his life, the day before yesterday, someone from the north said that Yuan Shao defeated Brother Bogui and surrendered Han Fu, and the Hebei War was about to start, he asked for a long time in the seat, and I knew that he had moved his mind, but he didn't expect to go in such a hurry! β
"Yide told me about something before he left." Jian Yong replied calmly. "He said that he was in Qinghe, and he thought that he would receive a call from Xuande and General Wei at the same time, and he was thinking about how to be embarrassed at that time, but he didn't expect that he had been sitting in Qinghe for a long time, and General Wei never came, and you didn't send a letter until a long time......
Liu Bei lowered his head and sneered.
He said that he didn't understand it at the time, but when he walked to the Tiger Prison Pass, he suddenly woke up - it turns out that whether it is General Wei or Xuande, you all know what kind of person Zhang Yide is. General Wei knew in his heart that he Zhang Yide had served you Liu Xuande as a brother in his early years, and since you Liu Xuande had risen on his own, he would never abandon you, so he simply didn't summon him, and he Zhang Yide would be embarrassed when the time came; And you, Liu Xuande, also know in your heart that if he doesn't repay General Wei's great kindness, he will never let go, so you didn't write a letter to invite him to embarrass him at first, but waited for General Wei to march west to Hedong, and then asked him to join in the big event...... However, both of you are so considerate, and he is more and more uneasy! β
Hearing this, Liu Bei suddenly remembered that outside Yanshi City that day, Zhang Fei took the initiative to talk to Xu Rong...... Now that I think about it, Zhang Fei must have stepped forward to urge because Xu Rong was in a similar situation to him and understood what the other party was thinking.
As soon as he thought of this, Liu Bei's words also seemed a little bitter: "Xianhe thought about it, I was so out of shape just now, not because I was reluctant, nor because I was afraid that he would not return, but I was really worried about his safety...... Hebei side will rise, is the battle line of thousands of miles, the melee of hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides, Youzhou assault cavalry, Jizhou halberd, Sanfu spear, Qingzhou crossbow, brave generals like clouds, wise men like weaving, but also in the chaos of the war, the knife and arrow are ruthless, he alone is the courage of ten thousand people, how can he ensure his own safety? Don't tell me that he didn't ride alone! β
"Of course, Yide has one person and one spear, and he rides north alone." Jian Yong replied quietly. "And Xuande, not only you, I also know how dangerous it is for him to go...... But I, Jian Yong, really can't stop it, and I don't want to stop it! β
"Why?" Liu Bei finally turned around and asked.
"Because why Yide is still the Yandi Ranger in his bones, isn't my Jian Yong?" Jian Yong sat up straight and asked rhetorically. "And you, Liu Yuzhou, aren't you? Liu Xuande, don't pretend, you and I, like Yide, are just a ranger in Zhuojun Township in the past in this life, and they are burned into their bones, and they can't be changed! The great favor of the orcs, how can it not be repaid?! β
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly, but he lost his mind and couldn't speak...... This day is the first year of Jian'an, the third day of the seventh month.
Time back only five days, the first year of Jian'an, that is, on the eighth day of July in 191 AD, when Xun Yu was repairing the old house at home and Zhang Fei had just crossed the Huai River, Yuan Shao, who had taken a break in Yecheng, had also successfully taken over the treasury of Wei County, and then personally paid homage, and invited local talents such as Fu Zhu to give a big gift, or granted military power, perhaps with important positions, which was also a little appeased to the local people.
Immediately, his people immediately followed the advice of a group of strategists, immediately threw away all trivial matters, and officially issued a letter to the world in the name of the general of the chariot and cavalry, and sent a message to the world with Chen Lin's ghostwriting, calling on the people of the world to crusade against the thief of the country, Gongsun Xun, who hijacked the Son of Heaven and drove out the minister!
On the second day of the issuance of the text, after ensuring that the autumn grain could be received into the warehouse, Yuan Benchu personally raised 80,000 people, known as 100,000, and countless generals and strategists, and went straight to the city of Handan, trying to break through this thousand-year-old capital that was far away from Yecheng in one fell swoop before the arrival of Gongsun Xun's main force.
At this time, inside and outside the city of Handan, Gongsun Xun side, a total of 13,000 soldiers and horses, 450,000 people, two 2,000 stone in the city, is Zhao Xiang, Zhenwu general Guan Yu. As for Guo Jia, who has just been crowned, and Pan Zhang, who was born as a horse thief, they are not even as famous as Yang Jun, a student of Yanzhou celebrity Bian Rang, and Yang Jun is just the main book of General Zhenwu who was transferred from a county city, and no one cares about it.
For a time, on the local battlefield, the strength and weakness were distinct.
ββββI am the dividing line between strength and weaknessββββ
When Zhang Fei was in Shouchun, he was prepared, and when he heard that Yuan Shao would fight with Gongsun Xun in Hebei, he wanted to repay his kindness, but he took leave from Liu Bei and prepared it, that is, he rode north alone. Chen Qun was on the side, for the shogunate, and said: 'Fly, ten thousand enemies, now go north to return to General Wei, you must use it, I am afraid you will not be able to return it.'" Bei said to him: "Those who benefit virtue, Yan people also, Yan people are like swallow birds, today he goes north, tomorrow he goes south!" The crowd retreated. ββ"Heroes of the Late Han Dynasty".

I slept last night...... I felt that I had asked for leave, and I could squint for a while, but I didn't wake up until eleven o'clock, and the words were coded at night...... Of course it's the same thing.
