I didn't think about it for a few days, Han Hao ordered someone to report that there were Xu Yu in the plain who robbed the clansmen of the generals Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Tai Shi Ci and others under Han Yi, and threatened Tai Shi Ci at the head of the plain city. Tai Shici was furious and led the cavalry to attack the city, but was defeated by Yuan Tan. Tai Shi Ci was wounded by an arrow, and nearly half of the 10,000 cavalry were killed or wounded, and he has now retreated to Ling County.

Han Yi was also shocked when he heard the news, the Hebei generals under his command, their families were sent to Runan when Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, but many people of the same clan stayed in Hebei. I didn't want Yuan Shao to be so vicious, and he didn't let go of the people of his clan.

Han Yi heard that Yuan's army had 10,000 people coming from Jieqiao to reinforce Zhang Jaw, and knew that Ganling could not be captured, so he ordered Gao Ran to continue to confront Zhang Jaw and recalled Tai Shici and other cavalry to return to the Yangping camp.

When the generals in the camp heard about the plains, they were all furious, and Liu Ye bowed and said: "Yuan Shao has always cherished his reputation, and this is not the time when Yuan's army is in great trouble, and it must not be Yuan Shao's work to threaten people of the same clan." This is not the general's family, the intention of coercion is not big, at best, it is just to provoke Taishi Ziyi to attack the city, I heard that Xu Yu has a grudge against the lord, this should be his personal doing. The master can send an envoy to Yuan Shao's camp to ask for guilt, and Yuan Shao will send all the generals and people of the same clan to our army. ”

Han Yi thought it was reasonable, so he sent Jia Kui from Hedong to envoy Yuan Ying. Yuan Shao was furious when he heard this, and recalled Xu You from the plains, ordered Xin Ping to go to the plains to help Yuan Tan, and ordered the five hundred soldiers to send more than 200 people from the generals captured by Xu Yu to Yangping.

Han Yi set up a banquet to entertain the old acquaintance and asked: "Zijing and Zhongping have escorted the Lingshi Zhishu back to Anping for six years, and I haven't seen him for a long time, I don't know what the situation is like?" ”

He said: "Lord Domon Situ is concerned, and Zhao is still quite important under the command of the general. ”

Han Yi waved his hand and said: "The position of Situ was given by Yuan Benchu under the pretense of the emperor's mouth, and it is not the emperor's original intention, so don't take it seriously." ”

Zhao Zhao said solemnly: "Since Dong Zhuo's chaos, when did the officials in the world be the emperor's original intention?" The crowd is not yet happy to do their duty. Why is Situ's position not in line with respect, so he said that it was not the emperor's original intention, so don't take it seriously, this is the case? ”

Han Yihao was embarrassed for a while, and explained: "Yuan Shao abandoned hundreds of officials in Hongnong, robbed the Son of Heaven in Yecheng, arbitrarily placed hundreds of officials, and sealed official positions, and his intentions were worse than Dong Zhuo's. I am righteous in the world, entrusted by hundreds of officials, and led my troops north to welcome the Son of Heaven back to Luoyang Bingzheng, how can I accept the order of Yuan Shao's court. ”

He said: "Now that the Han family is in decline, the Son of Heaven is just a righteous plaything in the hands of various heroes, who takes the Son of Heaven seriously?" If Situ fights for the Son of Heaven, I'm afraid it's not as good as Yuan Shao. ”

Han Yi was stunned and said, "Could it be that I did something wrong to make Zijing angry?" So much so that Zijing felt resentful in his heart? ”

Zhao said: "Zhao Yu Zhongping six years thought that he could calm the world and restore the Han Dynasty, except for Situ. However, since Situ arrived in Runan, he insisted on suppressing the wealthy families in Yuzhou and using the Hanshi untouchables as officials. Its intention is by no means to unite loyal and righteous people to fight against Dong thieves. Rather, they want to secure their own borders, and they deliberately carry out the reality of secession. Zhao Shen hated that he had seen the wrong person, so he was angry in his heart. ”

Han Yi hurriedly explained: "Runan is the foundation of the Yuan family, and I am the Taishou of Runan, and I can be described as trembling at the beginning. At that time, if there was no army in his hands to suppress it, he would have been driven away from Runan by Yuan Shu. The wealthy families of the world are all interested in the Yuan family, and the Yuan family is bent on usurping the Han family, so I naturally want to suppress them and use Han scholars and talented people as officials. ”

Zhao shouted: "Situ has hundreds of officials in hand, why don't you welcome King Hongnong as the emperor and fight against Yuan Shao?" Since King Chen Liuwang became the emperor, the world has been in turmoil, which shows that his virtue is not enough to subdue the world. And King Hongnong is the son of the first emperor, and he is the most important hope of the world, and he was abolished by Dong Zhuo for no reason, and the world will pity him. If King Hongnong is re-established as emperor, the world will inevitably be subjugated. ”

Han Yizhi has a relationship with He Miao's wife and children, and there must be some conjectures about King Hongnong, so he is not surprised. It's just that although he is righteous and heroic, loyal to the Han family, he is too young and a little naïve after all. For example, today's heroes have no idea of the Han family, and they each want to do the truth of separation. If no one dared to declare himself as the emperor first, I am afraid that the world would have been divided into several countries.

Han Yi said: "When the first emperor was here, he disappointed the people of the world. Although King Hongnong was once the emperor, he was not virtuous in the world. Therefore, as the son of the first emperor, although he can win the pity of the people of the world, he cannot get their submission. If people are in turmoil today, they need to be conscripted in the name of the Son of Heaven, re-establish the authority of the Son of Heaven, and destroy the disobedience, so as to rebuild the Han Dynasty. ”

After listening to Han Yi's many explanations, he agreed with Han Yi's point of view, and agreed to lurk in Yuan Shao's place for Han Yi and make a fine work for Han Yi. Han Yi asked, "Can Yuan Shao break it now?" ”

He said: "Yuan Shao's reputation in Hebei is very good, although he has the Son of Heaven, but he has the coercion of General Zhengdong outside, and Yuan Shao has not yet reached the momentum of Dong Zhuoxiong to dominate the world, so he is very cautious in politics." The military forces under his command also worked together, did not dare to act rashly, and were bent on resisting the general of Zhengdong. If General Zhengdong first gave in to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao and his subordinates would inevitably be dumbfounded and make a series of wrong moves. Just like Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army, its troops will be chaotic after a long time, so that it can be broken. ”

Han Yi hesitated and said: "I originally subdued the world with the power of repeated battles and victories, if I obeyed, the people of the world would definitely look down on me, and then there would be no rebellion and separation?" ”

He said: "It's just a softness, it's not a defeat, and General Yu Zhengdong's prestige has not been damaged." General Zhengdong can be said to be intimidated by the might of the Son of Heaven and dare not commit it, not Yuan Shao's ability. ”

Han Yi hesitated and summoned the generals to ask the strategists. Liu Ye bowed and said: "Yuan Shao borrowed the name of the Son of Heaven, Fu Gongsun Zan in the north, Liu Bei in the east, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Han Sui and Ma Teng in the south. And the Yuan army was united in their hearts, defending according to the danger, and gathering all their strength to resist our army. Our army needs to defend on all sides, and only half of the strength is used to fight Yuan Shao, which is indeed difficult to break for a while. ”

"It's better for our army to guard against Yuan Shao along the river, and go south to attack Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and others who are easy to attack. Yuan Shao has no way to go south, and he will have a dirty relationship with Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei. Our army will strike a blow back to the army with the victorious division, and Yuan's army will be broken. ”

All the generals had their own theories of retreating, but they all made it difficult for Han Yi to make a decision. So he wrote to ask Ai Ke, Le Peng, Bao Hong and others who stayed in Pingyu, that the original discussion of a decisive battle with Yuan Shao was decided by them, and they should listen to their opinions.

Soon, a letter came from Pingyu, saying that when he saw Yuan Shao uniting the Quartet, he seemed to have the intention of looking for Han Yi to fight a decisive battle, so he tried his best to hold a decisive battle strategy. But Yuan Shao didn't think about the three of them, and he didn't want to take the initiative to attack Han Yi, but asked others to send troops to attack and disturb him. Han Yi led the troops to the door, but Yuan Shao was guarded without fighting. It can be seen that Yuan Shao is a disciple who does great things in real time and spares his life, even if the Son of Heaven is in hand, he can't do too much business. Han Yi can retire from the army for the time being.

Moreover, the wealthy families of the counties under their jurisdiction were very severely suppressed by Han Yi's various decrees, and it can be said that they have reached the critical point of a full-scale outbreak. Since Yuan Shao did not fight, he could temporarily retreat to Cangting, block the battle situation in Hebei, and falsely claim that the Han army had been defeated, and Yuan Shao won a great victory, inducing the wealthy families of the counties who did not know the truth to rebel, and then exterminated them in one fell swoop.

Han Yi thought to himself, this strategy can be said to be very dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will be self-defeating. caused a storm in the already stable counties. If Yuan Shao leads his troops to attack at this time, I am afraid that it will turn from a fake defeat to a real defeat.

However, if he is a loyal minister of the Han family, this move is not necessary, and the Han Emperor should be bothered. However, since you have the heart to be self-reliant, you must shave off the disobedience and noise in your collar.

Han Yi felt a little bored for a while, just for the time of the general, just attack and fight, everything is not worried. At this time, it is too complicated to think about all aspects of the territory under its jurisdiction, and to consider the things that are contrary to the hearts of the people.

Even if he exterminated some of the rash family giants at this time, the rest of the family families who had his thoughts were only afraid that they would be hidden even deeper. Unless there is no one of the people of the world after the founding of the country, sooner or later there will be great repetitions.

Han Yi also hesitated for a while, with his own ability, does he really have the ability to rebuild a dynasty? Han Gaozu was only born as a pavilion chief, how did he deal with all these complicated things?

Jia Kui visited Yuan Shao and said: "General Zhengdong has a saying: I heard that Yuan Benchu wanted to blackmail the Son of Heaven and ordered the princes, so he personally led his troops north to seek war. If he wins, he will take the Son of Heaven and return to the south, and if he loses, he will surrender to His Majesty Yuan Benchu. Unexpectedly, Yuan Benchukong had the ambition to dominate the world, but he had no determination to compete in the next one, which was really disappointing. Today's Jizhou is poor, not as far as the Central Plains, and the land of Jizhou is specially left for the Yuan family to support the Son of Heaven. The territory outside Hebei can be governed by General Zhengdong on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so there is no need for Yuan Benchu to worry about it. ”

Yuan Shao was furious when he heard this, and immediately wanted to raise troops to fight Han Yi in a decisive battle. The strategists hurriedly stopped: "Han Yi's move is obviously a provocation, but it is actually a request for peace. He knew that it would be difficult for our army to attack, so he thought to him that he wanted to attack the other side first, but this idea was a great idea for our army. Yuan Highway and Liu Jingsheng were not persecuted by Han Mingyuan, and they were always reluctant to take the initiative to attack Han Yi. When Han Yi attacks his subordinates, he will come to me for help. Our military can unite all forces to destroy Han Yi together. ”

Yuan Shao shouted angrily: "Having said that, I am a dignified general, but I have been bullied by Han Yi'er to this point, and the anger in my heart is really unpleasant. ”

Frustrated, he said: "At this time, he is strong and I am weak, which is also impossible. Our army can take the opportunity of the truce with Han Yi to subdue Liu Bei in Qingzhou, and then take the opportunity of Liu Yu's old department to take revenge and conquer Gongsun Zhan's department. Our army combined the forces of these three parties, and summoned the people of Wuhuan and Xianbei Desert as wings, so that they could have a chance to compete with Han Yi. ”

Yuan Shao shouted angrily: "I didn't expect my son-in-law to be so embarrassed." I knew that this son was so difficult, and he should have been completely trapped in Henan. ”
