。。。

On the other side, Liu Yi and the others were already about to arrive in Yecheng, and no one stopped them along the way, which was surprising smoothly.

Liu Yi and the others chatted on the road, the time passed quickly, and it was estimated that they would arrive in the evening, well, it was noon.

Lighting a fire to cook, Liu Yi and the others were not too anxious along the way, because of them, it was a fool's dream to capture Yecheng, and they needed to wait for the opportunity.

"Ziang, it seems that you have never been back since you left Luoyang, right, there is no fellow or something?"

Zhang Fei asked suspiciously, he and Guan Yu have already returned to their hometowns, and recently Guan Yu has also taken his wife and son over from Zhang Fei.

However, what makes people puzzled is that it seems that Liu Yi has never seen him go home, alas, just an old servant.

Zhuge Liang also looked over, holding a chicken leg in his hand and gnawing on it, this is Liu Yi's extra meal for him, saying that children should eat a balanced nutrition, and it is the time to grow their bodies.

Liu Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Under Luoyang City, how can there be any fellow countrymen, my father is a petty official, in the officialdom, only I am cheating, and after I die, I and Uncle Zhou will be left." ”

Liu Yi sighed, in fact, his heart was quite relaxed, if there were really seven aunts and eight aunts, as well as all kinds of enthusiastic fathers and villagers, Liu Yi estimated that he would not be able to stand it.

Although as the saying goes: wealth does not return to the hometown such as brocade clothes at night, the emperor who was exposed by the child tricks, bare buttocks are willing to show off new clothes on the street, after Han Gaozu became famous, he returned to his hometown Pei County, and a song "Song of the Great Wind" has been passed down through the ages: "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, Weijia is returning to his hometown, and the warriors are guarding the Quartet!" Two thousand years later, when I read it, I still feel heroic and moving! But the purpose of wanting to return to the hometown is nothing more than to show off, or to make the life of those close to you better.

relatives, Liu Yi doesn't, Zhou Bo may be his closest person,

Enemy, there is one, Zhao Zhong is estimated to be dead now.

That's why Liu Yi lives so chic, without fetters, and only Zhou Bohui often encourages him, it is estimated that if Liu Yi wanders for a lifetime, it doesn't matter, anyway, how to live is his own business.

In fact, if you return to your hometown, Boss Cao has done a good job, not only returning to his hometown, but also getting some soldiers to work for him, but he did do some good things, well, for his father and fellow villagers, Liu Yi feels that the main thing is that his father and fellow villagers really fully support Cao Cao, and the children of his hometown have been following Boss Cao Chen Liu, and have experienced vicious battles and suffered heavy casualties. At the juncture when Cao Cao was almost wiped out, a group of fresh troops drove out of the county to help him make a comeback, after hardships, no betrayal, it was really the backbone of Cao Cao's army, Cao Cao followed, and then Cao Boss returned to his hometown to comfort the villagers, and care for the lonely and weak, of course, it was greatly beneficial to the morale of the army.

In history, Cao Cao did something practical for the people of his hometown: invested a lot of money, built water conservancy, and repaired and governed the Suiyang Canal. During the project, I didn't forget to visit the deceased "Bole" Qiao Xuan, and I didn't forget the old kindness, but when I paid tribute, I didn't forget to make a joke between yin and yang to the former bridge Taiwei, and I was respectful to him during his lifetime, how could I still be so serious after death?

Liu Yi fiddled with the fire, Zhuge Liang Zhang Fei heard Liu Yi's words, and didn't say more, after all, all the relatives left, but it was quite miserable.

Zhang Fei is a single, a fellow countryman, but he has not yet started a family, and the old husband and mother have also died early, and now he is alone.

It's Zhuge Liang, Liu Yi remembers, Zhuge Liang also has an elder brother, it seems that his name is Zhuge Jin, and he is also a talent.

"Kong Ming, if you have time to take your family over, the place in Chengyang is big, and now Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yanzhou are all ours, and we are not afraid that there will be no place."

There is another sentence that Liu Yi did not say, that is, there is a serious shortage of talents.

Zhuge Liang nodded silently, but judging by what he meant, he shouldn't have the idea of picking up his family, after all, the rules of the family are actually quite troublesome sometimes.

After a meal, Liu Yi felt like vomiting blood.

Started on the road, the target is Yecheng, and he will reach his destination tonight, everything seems to be going well, Liu Yi prayed, if Yuan Shao can die violently on the way here, then the north will really be theirs.

This is not a utopian dream, the people of the old Yuan family, the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, really vomited blood and died. They all had the same disease, they all vomited blood and died, could it be that there is some family hereditary strange disease?

Ahem, don't be frightened by the current friends surnamed Yuan, just like the Sun family and the head of the family, Sun Wukong, for more than 2,000 years, the blood relationship is not touched, and we also have to be involved with Yuan Tiangang, who knew 5,000 years before and 5,000 years later, the Yuan family in the Eastern Han Dynasty was too far away from us. Even if Yuan Shikai, the president of the Republic of China and Emperor Hongxian who was much earlier than us, isn't the way for people to return to heaven the opposite of this strange illness of the Yuan family? The Yuan brothers of the Eastern Han Dynasty vomited blood from above, and Emperor Yuan of the Republic of China did not come out of water at the bottom, it is said that Emperor Yuan had uremia, and when urinating, he also needed the most beautiful concubine in the ninth room to be loyal, and tried his best to suck it out with a small mouth of cherries, it was really difficult for this little lady! Fortunately, Emperor Yuan foresaw the way back and was prepared, if he only married the eighth aunt, then he would not be able to suffocate to death? Oh - understand why there is a very common saying why it has spread so widely: Lao Jiu can't go!

The Yuan brothers' common illness is estimated to be due to psychological reasons, they were all killed by the nest, and people will vomit blood constantly when they are in the nest? However, Liu Yi did not study medicine and did not dare to speak falsely, but the situation of the two brothers before their deaths was somewhat similar: Yuan Shu hated the sky and was unfair, and was bullied by Liu Bei, a weaver child; Yuan Shao was complaining and blind, and he was humiliated by the grandson of the eunuch, which is indeed the same way.

It was Yuan Shao's violent death at the beginning, and Cao Cao arrived. The opportunity that has been waiting for fell from the sky, and the time is finally ripe to send troops to Hebei! Immediately rejuvenated? Stay! The ancients said: Taking advantage of the mourning to destroy the country is also unjust. Cao Cao finally resisted his greed and did not immediately go to Hebei, was Cao Cao suddenly pursuing the word "righteousness" again? Also, Cao Cao is waiting: taking advantage of the Yuan family's raising troops will inevitably cause the Yuan family's little brothers to have the same hatred; The officials, soldiers and civilians of the four states under the command of the Yuan clan will also pity the weak and hate the strong; The whole country scolded Cao Cao, even if he had a truth and a reason. If you can wait for the brothers Yuan Tan, Shang, and Xi to fight for the inheritance, it will be a delay.

As the saying goes: brothers have one heart, and loess turns into gold. Are the little brothers of the Yuan family resolutely inheriting the glorious tradition of infighting among the older generation of Yuan brothers? Or is it united, muzzle outward?

The rise and fall of families and groups is in their own hands. As a matter of fact, Yuan's military and economic strength was still much greater than that of Cao Cao's Eastern Han government.

Thinking of this, Liu Yi smiled, the tradition of the old Yuan family, can not be lost, from top to bottom, it is full of the atmosphere of infighting, often the enemy does not come, they have already fought to the death.

Among the Kwantung princes who crusaded against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao was elected as the leader of the alliance, although the military action against Dong was anticlimactic, but this made Yuan Shao earn enough fame, coupled with Yuan Shao's prominent family background, so the world's celebrities flocked to it for a while. When Han Fu ceded Jizhou to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao was even more generalized and strategist. It can be said that among the princes in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, Yuan Shao was really full of talents. As for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's strategists, there is not much difference in their talents, but there is a phenomenon that cannot be ignored, it seems that Cao Cao's strategists always have the same opinion, while Yuan Shao's strategists always have different opinions. Originally, it was not a bad thing to have different opinions, and decision-makers could better see the interests and stakes through comparison, so that they could more clearly pursue the advantages and avoid the disadvantages, but the problem was that Yuan Shao's advisers also had to turn this disagreement into a struggle, so that the interests of the group would be damaged until they failed. So, why are Yuan Shao's strategists always good at fighting in the nest, Liu Yi doesn't know about this, but he knows that Yuan Shao's life in the past few years has not been nourishing, and his strategists have changed their tricks to scare each other.

When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was in exile in Hedong. Fu Zhu suggested that Yuan Shao should welcome Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and set up the capital in Yecheng. Then there is "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and the cattle and horses to beg for the court", so that no one can conquer. However, another strategist, Guo Tu, said that the Han Dynasty had been in decline for a long time, and it was not difficult to prosper it. If the emperor is ushered in, something will have to be played, and the power to obey the emperor himself will be small, and disobedience is disobedience to the emperor's orders, which is not a good strategy. In this way, Yuan Shao put this matter aside, missed the opportunity, and missed the opportunity.

Another theory is that Guo Tu persuaded Yuan Shao to welcome Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and build the capital Yecheng, but Yuan Shao did not accept it. Welcoming Emperor Han Xian was the biggest thing at that time, and Fu Zhi was the highest-ranking strategist under Yuan Shao at that time, why didn't Fu Zhi have the opinion of such a big thing?

Of course, even if Fu Zhu and Guo Tu have different opinions, it is not a problem, but when it comes to the battle of Guandu in history, the opinions and differences between the two have turned into a fight. Yuan Shao was preparing to go south to attack Xudu, but he and Tian Feng and others suggested that we had been fighting for many years, and the people were already very tired, which was our worry. It is better to report to the emperor first, so that the people can rest and recuperate. If Cao Cao doesn't let us meet the Son of Heaven, he will say that he is blocking the king's road, so that we will have a reason to send troops. Then we will divide our forces and harass his borders, so that they will not be at peace. In this way, after three years, we can drag Cao Cao down, and major events can be successful. Guo Tu, Xianpei and others said that with the Shenwu of Ming Gong and the strength of Hebei's soldiers, defeating Cao Cao was as easy as turning the palm of his hand. If you don't capture Xudu now, I'm afraid it will be even more impossible in the future. This was only a discussion of the question of strategic policy, that is, whether to adopt a protracted war to consume the opponent's military capabilities, or to adopt a quick decisive battle to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, Yuan Shao preferred the latter and adopted it, so the army attacked as far as Guandu. However, Guo Tu did not give up, and further slandered Fu Zhu in front of Yuan Shao, saying: "Fu Zhu supervises inside and outside, and the authority shakes the three armies, if he is further strengthened, what can be done to restrain him?" In this way, before the war, Yuan Shao wanted to divide the authority of the army into three governors, and each led an army by Fu Zhu, Guo Tu, and Chun Yuqiong. Although it has not yet had time to be implemented, the scourge of infighting has already been sown.

In the battle of Guandu, Xu You was on the front line of Guandu with Yuan Shao, and he was in the stage of stalemate, and someone in Xu You's family broke the law, and the trial who stayed in Yecheng arrested them. Xu You was furious when he found out and surrendered to Cao Cao. Seeing Cao Cao, Xu You revealed the empty defense of the Wuchao granary, and suggested that he immediately raid the Wuchao. If Wuchao's grain is burned, Yuan Shaojun's heart is unstable and he will inevitably fail. Cao Cao adopted this suggestion and personally led the light cavalry to raid Wuchao and burn down the granary, and Yuan Shao was indeed defeated.

There is nothing wrong with strictly enforcing the law, but there should be a difference between peacetime and wartime, especially for the families of ministers on the front. As long as it is not a collaborator, the timing of this law enforcement should still be considered, and even if it is necessary to enforce the law immediately, it should be communicated with the supreme governor Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao can take restrictive measures against Xu You. But the trial and match were directly done like this, so no matter how correct this law enforcement is, it can't hide the essence of the fight.

The Wuchao granary was burned, and the general Zhang He suggested rescuing the Wuchao, while Guo Tu suggested attacking Cao Cao's camp, but Zhang Hejiu could not attack Cao's camp. In order to cover up his suggested missteps, Guo Tu falsely accused Zhang He of not doing his best in the war, and Zhang He, fearing that he would be killed, surrendered to Cao Cao with his army, which led to the rout of Yuan Shao's army.

Before the Battle of Guandu, Tian Feng, like Fu Zhu, also suggested that Yuan Shao use a protracted war to consume Cao Cao, and finally achieve the strategic goal of "winning by temple calculation". The difference was that Tian Feng's proposal was more detailed and thorough, so his attitude towards dissuading Yuan Shao from going on the expedition was also more resolute. Yuan Shao didn't listen, Tian Feng advised him in public, and Yuan Shao arrested him and put him in prison. After the defeat, the soldiers all said that if Tian Feng was here, he would not have collapsed like this! Yuan Shao himself said that Tian Feng stopped me before he set out on the expedition, and I was very ashamed to see him again. Feng Ji said, Tian Feng slapped his face and laughed when he heard that the general had withdrawn from the army, and he was very happy that what he said before was right. Yuan Shao then killed Tian Feng.

This situation of fighting in the nest is funny, but it has not changed because of Yuan Shao's death, on the contrary, after his death, the infighting among these ministers has become more intense. The trial and match and Feng Ji pulled the gang to support Yuan Shang, and Xin Ping and Guo Tu teamed up to support Yuan Tan. Some people thought that Yuan Tan was the eldest and should become Yuan Shao's heir, but the judges, Feng Ji and others were afraid that Yuan Tan's succession would be unfavorable to them, so they said that Yuan Shao meant to establish Yuan Shang. When Yuan Tan came back from Qingzhou, he saw that his younger brother Yuan Shang had already stood up for Yuan Shao, so he claimed to be a general of the Che Cavalry. In this way, the two brothers split. Although Cao Cao temporarily united when he attacked Jizhou, they were still wary of each other, and when Cao Cao went south to conquer Liu Biao, the brothers finally fought hard, which eventually led to the failure of internal friction and was killed.

Why are Yuan Shao's subordinates good at fighting in the nest? Liu Yi didn't want to evaluate, this was obviously the reason for the lord, and the main reason was not whether Fu Zhu, Tian Feng and Xian Pei were loyal martyrs, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and Xu You and others were treacherous, but because Yuan Shao's own darkness was unknown.

In fact, there are differences of opinion within any group, especially when the situation is complex and turbulent. In a way, it's a good thing to have different opinions, which can look at things from different sides, figure things out for what they really are, and get closer to the essence of things. If the people of a group have one voice and one opinion on everything, this can only cause the blind action of a group, which means that the whole group has lost its mind, which will be detrimental to the interests of the whole. The key to these different opinions lies in the monarch's grasp, understanding, and trade-offs. It can be said that Yuan Shao's lack of resourcefulness, lack of clarity about his master, narrow-mindedness and lack of determination caused his subordinates to fight in the nest. For example, on the issue of welcoming Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, which is more important between "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes" and "playing at every turn", will others not face this problem? The key is that Yuan Shao's resourcefulness is not enough, and he can't see the huge use value of Emperor Han Xian at this time, but only sees the emperor as a burden and burden. When Cao Cao "took" this emperor, he realized that it didn't matter whether he asked for instructions or not, the important thing was that he could give orders in the name of the emperor. In fact, Cao Cao faced exactly the same problem as Yuan Shao on the question of whether to welcome Emperor Han Xian, but Cao Cao's wisdom was able to recognize the value of the emperor's use and knew how to avoid the emperor's shackles, so once he made a decision, he acted immediately and personally welcomed Emperor Han Xian.

Also, as a monarch, you have to know whether your subordinates are for things or people. For things, you can let your subordinates express their opinions and express their opinions, and you must be cautious about people, especially those who always lead things to personal attacks, you must be vigilant. In the feudal era, the lord was the biggest property, and a person contributed to the lord in order to get the greatest benefit of the lord. The Lord's Guild of Wisdom allows his subordinates to speak wisely, rewarding them for their merits, and never allowing them to gain "privately" by destroying others. Yuan Shao, on the other hand, devoted more energy to listening to his subordinates' mutual attacks on people, which was a distinctive feature of an unknown monarch. For example, Tian Feng's matter, why can't you listen to what Tian Feng said? Of course, there is also a question of mind, but is face more important than the whole career? Cao Cao once wanted to relocate the population of Huainan, but Jiang Ji opposed it, and Cao Cao insisted on moving, resulting in 100,000 people running to the south of the Yangtze River. Cao Cao not only was not "ashamed to see him" to Jiang Ji, but also promoted him. If Tian Feng knew about it underground and heard that Jiang Ji was treated like this, would he regret that he shouldn't have agreed to Yuan Shao to become an official in the first place? Even if he is an official, should he be like Xun Yu and Guo Jia, and run to Cao Cao!

During the stalemate phase of the Battle of Guandu, both Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had different opinions. Cao Cao's army had difficulty transporting grain, and there were different opinions on whether to continue to insist or retreat to Xudu. Cao Cao asked Xun Yu for his opinion, and Xun Yu said that the difficulties were on both sides and should be persevered, and this was also the time to take risks. Cao Cao immediately made a decision and persevered. Xu You came to vote, many people thought it was a fraudulent surrender, Cao Cao not only believed that it was true, but also led the cavalry to raid the black nest according to Xu You's suggestion. This is decisiveness, and the consequence of this is that there is no room for subordinates to continue fighting. Yuan Shao was in Guandu, and someone wanted to make a quick decision and attack Xudu; Some people want to dig deep into the ditch and fight a protracted war, and exchange time for victory. Yuan Shao did not accept any of them, forming a situation where the attack was not resolute, the retreat was unwilling, and the garrison was not tightly defended. This kind of battle and defense posture reflects military hesitation, which is the true reflection of the lack of wisdom and inability of the commander Yuan Shao. The consequence of this is that it leaves room for his subordinates to continue fighting.

Cao Cao spoke highly of the two people under him, Xun Yu and Guo Jia, and both of them used to stay under Yuan Shao, and later both left Yuan Shao, which shows that Yuan Shao himself has problems. Therefore, the fundamental reason why Yuan Shao's subordinates are good at fighting in the nest lies in Yuan Shao himself.

Along the way, Liu Yi was also thinking about how to take Yecheng, after all, it was the county seat of Yizhou, and it was heavily defended, and it would not be weak compared to the military force.

Just thinking about it, I arrived at Yecheng, and it turned out that it was already dusk.

"Set up camp and guard against the enemy."

Zhang Fei gave the order and ran to Liu Yi's side.

"Ziang, we don't have to hide, we all know that we are coming to Yecheng, I'm afraid there will be no encounters along the way, and someone has arranged it."

Liu Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't hide, let's go, let's go and see who is guarding the city." ”

Let's say, riding a horse, well, that is, Xiaobai, Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei followed, and the three of them approached Yecheng.

Liu Yi didn't dare to wave, Cao Cao in history almost died under the walls of Yecheng, the power of the crossbowmen is still very great, his small body, I'm afraid he can't withstand the attack.

"Who's down in the city?"

I saw a heroic middle-aged man with a beard and bright eyes on the city wall.

Liu Yi smiled, the people arranged by Yuan Shao were really cautious, or their actions seemed to have been insightful.

"Qingzhou Liu Yi, Liu Ziang, dare to ask who Your Excellency is."

Liu Yi stopped the horse in place, did not take a step forward, estimated the distance, there should be no danger here, and looked at the city wall with confidence.

The middle-aged man also sighed, and secretly said Liu Yi's cunning, this distance is exactly the maximum distance of the range of the bow and crossbow, and the lethality is really limited.

"In the next trial, it turned out to be the famous Liu Ziang, and the journey was smooth."

Liu Yi said secretly, it turned out to be a trial, I'm afraid it will be difficult this time, this guy is a diehard, or a diehard fan of Yuan Shao, I'm afraid he won't surrender until he dies.

Just as Liu Yi was about to speak, another voice sounded in the city.

"Liu Ziang, it's not good to stay in your Qingzhou, why are you coming to our Yizhou, you really are the invincible god of war."

Liu Yi narrowed his eyes, looked at a richly dressed young man who appeared on the city wall, and said, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

The man said unruly: "I am Xu You." ”

Liu Yi felt more and more interesting, it seems that there is no peace in this Yecheng, usually the ones who come out to speak are representatives, and generally no one will contradict them, unless they are not a faction, and they are incompatible.

"It turned out to be Lord Xu, I have been looking up for a long time, how can the scenery of Qingzhou compare to Yecheng, it's getting late, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Liu Yi left Yecheng without hesitation, smiled and walked to the camp, and knew a little about the situation in Yecheng.

"Xu You, what do you want to do?"

The judge looked at the richly dressed young man with an annoyed face, and he was very contemptuous, how could he ask such a brainless question.

Why don't people take it with them in Qingzhou, of course, it's to break through Yecheng, I'm really speechless for this kind of person.

Xu You smiled and left, the limelight can't be all out of the trial, as for what questions to ask, it doesn't matter to him at all, his purpose is to let the trial know that this Yecheng is not his home yet.

The judge looked helpless, there is really no way, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, this is the truth that everyone knows, but you can't be safe, the power of the rebels is stronger than he imagined, especially led by Xu Youxin, who completely ignores the safety of the city, just to fight for power and profit.

The eldest prince doesn't care about anything in Yecheng, the main thing is that Yuan Shao has not died yet, the lord can only be Yuan Shao, he doesn't dare to meddle in government affairs, otherwise Yuan Shao comes back, I'm afraid he won't see the sun tomorrow, he can only be idle all day long, indifferent to Yecheng.

The trial feels a lot of pressure, and under internal and external troubles, how can this be fought? Fortunately, the defenders of Yecheng are not weak, otherwise he would really despair.

In Yecheng, Zhen's family.

"Miss, Miss, big event, big event."

A maid ran in in a panic, almost tripped and didn't care, it seemed that she was really in a hurry.

Zhen Mi looked at this frizzy maid helplessly, what's wrong with being in a daze, is it wrong to be in a daze. Every time I am disturbed by this maid, I am really a Buddha.

"What's the matter, so flustered."

The maid rested for a while, and hurriedly said: "There is an army from outside Yecheng, it seems to be Liu Ziang's army, they are going to attack Yecheng, miss, it's so scary, we won't die." ”

The teacup in Zhen Mi's hand fell to the ground with a snap, his eyes were dilated, and he muttered, "Is it finally here?" I thought you would never come. ”

Let's say, a smile hangs on the corner of her mouth, it looks like a blooming snow lotus, a beauty smiles, and the city and the country are captivated.

"Miss, miss, what's wrong with you."

The maid said anxiously, stamped her feet, and was about to cry.

"It's over, the young lady is scared stupid, what should I do."

Zhen Mi glanced at the maid and said, "You're stupid." ”

"Don't worry, it's okay, even if Liu Ziang breaks through Yecheng, he won't do anything to us."

Zhen Mi had a confident smile on her face, on this day, she had been waiting for a long time, from answering that question, until now, she didn't expect that Liu Yi would really come.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, Liu Ziang thinks that he wants to break through Yecheng, pacify the north, and complete the great cause, but in Zhen Mi's eyes, Liu Yi is here for her.

But thinking about it, Zhen Mi's face was like frost, and he hated itchy, and said: "Liu Ziang, when you come, see how you explain to me, when you come here, you want to have three wives and four concubines, if it wasn't for an accidental chance, I really let you hide it." ”

Yes, Zhen Mi knew that Liu Yi was married and married to Cai Wenji, as a traverser, how could Zhen Mi not know Cai Wenji's name, how many people are crazy about this woman, it seems that Liu Yi is also fascinated now.

"I'll settle accounts with you when you come, Zhen family."

Zhen Mi clenched his little fists, he was ready to punish him, as for whether Liu Yi could break through Yecheng, Zhen Mi was not worried at all, if a Yecheng could stump him, then in this world, Liu Yi would no longer have to fantasize, pack up and go home as soon as possible.

At the same time, Liu Yi returned to the camp tent and thought about his current situation.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were the only brothers of the princes during the Three Kingdoms period, which is rare in Chinese history. The relationship between the two brothers has been very general since childhood, Yuan Shao was born as a concubine, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were half-brothers, but Yuan Shao was born to a maidservant, and was later adopted by his uncle, but became the representative of the eldest son in the clan, so Yuan Shu looked down on his brother, and openly declared that Yuan Shao was not the son of the Yuan family, and drew a clear line with Yuan Shao.

When it comes to the two Yuan brothers, everything can be ignored, only their background. "The Fourth and Third Princes of the Yuan Family" is a natural blurt out of words by any person who has read the romance, although he may not really understand the specific meaning, but he also generally knows that this is the meaning of the Yuan family's illustrious background. In the fourth episode of "Abolishing the Han Emperor Chen Liujian, Seeking Dong Thief Meng De to Present a Knife", Zhou Yu once said: "And the Yuan Shuen IV, the protégé and the former officials are all over the world." In fact, it is not difficult to understand the "four worlds and three dukes": the position of the "three dukes" in different dynasties refers to different things, that is, in the Han Dynasty, there have been changes from time to time, but the "three dukes" as a symbol of the important ministers of the court have never changed. For example, the lieutenant is close to today's Minister of Defense or Commander-in-Chief of the three services; Situ and the prime minister are almost the same, so in ancient times, the prime minister was often set up, that is, the prime minister was not placed, and the prime minister was reinstated; Sikong came from the imperial doctor, and his authority has the meaning of a *official. Among the ancestors of Yuan Shao IV, there are people among them. The reason why some people still say that it is "four generations and five dukes" refers to another concept, that is, in the Yuan family, there are five people who have held the position of three dukes. It is easy to imagine that as soon as he ascended to the "Three Princes", he became extremely popular, cultivated minions, weaved cronies, and developed family power, which was taken for granted. It is not surprising that the Yuan family has many "three dukes" in the world, and "protégés are all over the world". After more than 100 years of operation, the Yuan family has cast a huge network of relationships in the Central Plains, which naturally constitutes a rich family legacy to the second Yuan.

It was with this strong political capital that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu became princes in two places, one occupied Hebei and the other dominated Huainan. When discussing Dong Zhuo, they worked together for a short time, Yuan Shao was the leader of the princes' alliance, and Yuan Shu was in charge of the important positions of grain and grass materials. After the dissolution of the alliance, they fought separately, because when Yuan Shu was in Nanyang, he heard that Yuan Shaoxin had won Jizhou and sent an envoy to ask for a thousand horses. Shao is not with, and he is angry. Since then, the brothers have been at odds. Immediately, the two joined two different factions, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were allies, and Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zhan, and Tao Qian were one faction. In fact, the Kwantung princes at that time, either for the old officials of the Yuan family, or for the old relatives, Yuan Shao won the northern state of Jizhou, and Yuan Shu effortlessly got Nanyang, a large county with a household registration of one million. However, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers did not get along, but instead formed forces to confront each other. It is no exaggeration to say that the first stage of the division of the heroes in the late Han Dynasty is called the dispute between the two Yuan brothers.

There are many similarities in the personality traits of the two, both are stubborn and self-serving, and the fox is difficult to decide, although it is a short-term glory by virtue of the advantage of his background, but then he was defeated, Yuan Shu said that the emperor was cornered, and finally fell into a situation where he had nothing to eat and vomited blood and died, Yuan Shao died of depression after the battle of Guandu, and suffered from the same hematemesis. And he is still difficult to decide on the issue of heirs, if he doesn't like Yuan Shang and hesitate on the issue of heirs because Yuan Tan is the eldest son, it will not lead to a split between the ministers and ministers. If he had set up Yuan Tan as the heir earlier, there would be no trial and other people who would stand on Yuan Shang's side, if he wanted to set up Yuan Shang as the heir, although it was troublesome, but it was okay, Yuan Tan could be put to death or placed under house arrest. However, he hesitated for a long time, and on the side of Yuan Tan: on the one hand, he entrusted Yuan Tan with important tasks, led the troops for a long time, and led the troops with Yuan Shao when he was in Guandu; On the other hand, when he was seriously ill, he still did not recall him and stayed in other places, resulting in the loss of inheritance rights. As for Yuan Shang, on the one hand, he likes it, and he does not object to the close proximity of important ministers such as trial and matching; On the other hand, his status is not clear, let alone weakening the power of Yuan Tan and others. Yuan Shao's love for children is long, the hero's shortness of breath, and hesitation are the biggest reasons for his final defeat.

In fact, if the four states serve one lord together, whether it is Yuan Shang or Yuan Tan, with the strength of the four states, they have the power to protect themselves, but Yuan Shao did not solve the problem of the heir, which led to the split of the two people, attacked each other, and even led Cao Cao to help, so it would be strange not to be destroyed (under the mutual attack of Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, it still took Cao Cao five years to pacify it, which shows the strength of the Yuan family).

Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan are like copies of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, both generations of the Yuan family have suffered such a fate, and they are all occupied by one Cao Cao, I don't know if it is the tradition of the Yuan family, or Cao Cao's fate is the nemesis of the Yuan family. But this is all off-topic, Liu Yi sees the current scene very clearly.

First of all, Yuan Shao was fighting abroad, and he had not yet determined who would inherit the great cause, so his two sons did not dare to move.

The defenders of Yecheng should be the strategists led by Xu You, and the two are obviously incompatible, although they don't know what the contradiction is, but it is certain that the political struggle between these two people will be their own breakthrough.

At this time, the advantage of mastering history is highlighted, if you want to find a breakthrough, you can't find both, you need to find a suitable person.

Of course, Liu Yi will choose Xu You without hesitation, although Liu Yi admires the loyalty of the trial, but at this time, if you choose someone loyal to Yuan Shao as a breakthrough, I am afraid that Liu Yi will fail very badly, after all, everyone is die-hard, and you still want to persuade him to betray, it's just a dream.

"Xu You, history has made you bear the infamy once, so let's do it again, anyway, you are also such a person."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he has a rough idea of Yecheng's plan, but this is not enough, how can he say that they have this little strength, even if they attack Yecheng, they will not be able to threaten Xu You, this guy is not stupid, obviously Yuan Shao's side has the advantage, how can he surrender, he needs to put Yecheng at a disadvantage.

Liu Yi calculated the time, and estimated that Zhang Yan should also arrive at this time, after all, they were walking slowly along the way, if Zhang Yan had the heart to help, he would definitely come to support quickly.

"One day, one day at most, as long as Zhang Yan can come over in one day, I will attack the city and take Yecheng, I can't catch up, I can only think of another way."

Liu Yi rubbed his forehead, there are too many things and too complicated, which makes Liu Yi very annoyed, let's pacify the north as soon as possible, I'm afraid that Jiangdong will be uneasy again.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, these two guys are ambitious, it's really a headache, why are there so many dishonest people, they won't stay at home well, so the world will be peaceful.

In fact, it is inevitable to fight for the world, after all, capable people have a kind of arrogance, and they don't think that they are weaker than others, so how can they give up this troubled world.

"Learn the statecraft and sell it to the emperor's family", isn't this the case, but now it's not sold to the emperor, it's a gamble on the princes, and the princes can laugh to the end all the way, no one knows, but if you don't gamble, it will definitely be empty in the end.

Liu Yi was lying in the tent, thinking about life, and suddenly thought of a troublesome thing, after breaking through Yecheng, how should he face Zhen Mi, although they have not met, but the two people have long been extremely familiar, and after so many negative distance contacts, their souls have long been blended.

If Zhen Mi knew that he was married, it would be over, Liu Yi would feel scared when he thought about it, it was not that he had not fantasized about the days of three wives and four concubines in the past, but it really became a reality, so Liu Yi was very entangled, especially in the face of the soul of a modern person, would she accept this concept? I'm afraid that the future will not be easy.

Forget it, there must be a way for the boat to go straight to the bridge to the mountain, and then talk about it after the breakthrough of Yecheng, no matter what, Zhen Mi must take it back, if he wants to take it back, how can he let others touch the woman who got it, Liu Yi didn't want to take a green hat, even if she didn't want to go, she had to be forced to take it away, well, she had to be strong.

Entered the land of sleep, everything is waiting for Zhang Yan to come, the problem must be solved, if Zhang Yan does not come, then you can only use that method, although it is a bit embarrassing, but it is indeed very effective, Yecheng must be taken, Yuan Shao is estimated to be on the way, from Jieqiao to Yecheng, I am afraid it will take at least four or five days, and I still have a chance.

The night is coming, everyone has fallen asleep, except for the soldiers who are on vigil, there is no enemy attack, Yecheng does not dare to go out of the city gate, Liu Yi and they are very tired, the night is very quiet, waiting for the dawn to come, waiting for the dawn to come.
