Chapter 230 The Man Who Transports Grain
Cao Cao's guess was not wrong at all, the reason why Liu Yuan came to participate in the princes' alliance this time was that the person he wanted to target the most was Cao Cao Cao Mengde.
Originally, according to Liu Yuan's strength, he didn't need to participate in such an alliance at all, as long as he wanted him to be able to directly defeat or even kill Dong Zhuo by himself.
But Liu Yuan knew that if that happened, he would become the rafter who came out, and once he defeated Dong Zhuo, maybe an alliance against Liu might follow.
In order not to be a bird, Liu Yuan decided to keep a low profile, but since he wanted to participate in the alliance, then he had to fight Cao Cao.
It was precisely because Cao Cao organized this alliance and earned a great reputation in the process of crusading against Dong Zhuo.
In order to make a rapid comeback when he was almost completely annihilated.
Even his power grew geometrically after that, these were all brought about by that good reputation, and Liu Yuan certainly wouldn't let such a good thing fall on Cao Cao.
Among the heroes of the Three Kingdoms in later generations, the person he cared about the most and was the most guarded against was this Cao Cao Cao Mengde, if he could attack Cao Cao quietly, he would definitely be very happy.
This is the main reason why he competes for the deputy alliance leader, as for the position of the alliance leader, even if it is given to Yuan Shao?
Liu Yuan believed that with his original ability, he would not be able to become his worst enemy.
Besides, Yuan Shao's reputation has not increased but decreased after this alliance, and he doesn't need to care too much about it at all.
When Yuan Shao heard that Liu Yuan was going to be the deputy leader of the alliance, he was simply overjoyed, and when Kong Rong said those words, he was ready to abdicate and make way for Xian.
But now that the peak is turning, Liu Yuan has no intention of competing with him, Yuan Shao knows that the opportunity must not be missed and will not come again, he quickly got up and said:
"Since Fan Yanghou wants the position of deputy alliance leader, of course Yuan supports it! I don't think anyone will object! “
After speaking, Yuan Shao looked around the big tent for a week, his meaning was very obvious, if anyone put forward any opinions, it would be against him Yuan Benchu!
After Kong Rong and Sun Jian found out that Liu Yuan really didn't want to be the leader of the alliance, the two sighed helplessly, and then sat back in their places quietly.
The two of them didn't speak, and of course the other princes in the tent couldn't speak, so Cao Cao was pulled down from the position of deputy alliance leader by Liu Yuan and Yuan Shao.
He still had to accept it with a smile, when Cao Cao came down from the throne, he felt that his heart was dripping blood, but he knew that he was powerless to object!
When everyone sat down again, the high-spirited Yuan Shao began to delegate tasks, even if a Liu Yuan was added, Yuan Shao's delegation still did not change.
Wucheng Hou Sun Jian is still the vanguard of the Allied forces, and Yuan Shao's younger brother Yuan Shu's position has not changed, he is still the governor of all the grain and grass of the Allied army.
When Yuan Shu got this position, he couldn't help but cheer Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, this is what he has always wanted to get the position, because the oil and water in this position are quite large.
The grain and grass of the coalition army are brought by each prince, so he can do some tricks in it, and maybe he can make a windfall after the alliance is over.
Especially now with the arrival of Jizhou Mu Liu Yuan, Jizhou's wealth is famous, as long as he can get something out of the Jizhou army, it will definitely be enough for his army to eat for several years!
However, Yuan Shu didn't expect that when he took people to collect the grain and grass of the Jizhou army, he was driven out by one of Liu Yuan's young generals.
This made Yuan Shu, who had always had a good face, explode on the spot, he pointed at the young general and kept scolding, and even threatened the other party that he would engage in the other party's military law.
But he didn't expect the other party to ignore him at all, and let him shout in front of the Jizhou military camp for a long time, and the Jizhou army was stunned and didn't even come out.
The extremely angry Yuan Shu found his half-brother Yuan Shao, and when he told Yuan Shao what happened, Yuan Shao actually reprimanded him fiercely.
and warned him not to provoke Liu Yuan, if Liu Yuan took the handle, he, the elder brother who was the leader of the alliance, would not be able to save Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu was scolded by Yuan Shao and sobered up, he thought about it carefully and then broke out in a cold sweat, it was really a touching fortune, he almost caused a death disaster for this!
It's not that he doesn't know who Liu Yuan is, and the fact that people can come to the alliance this time has already given them enough face.
If he made another small move in secret, Liu Yuan would definitely not give up.
According to Liu Yuan's strength, if he wanted to kill him, no one could stop him, and it would be difficult for him to run even if he wanted to.
Thinking of this, Yuan Shu thanked this brother for the first time, who he had always looked down on.
Yuan Shao felt even more proud in his heart when he saw that his arrogant brother not only did not get angry after being reprimanded by himself, but looked like he had been taught.
I really didn't expect this Liu Yuan's reputation to be so big, what an arrogant person Yuan Shu was, but after he proposed Liu Yuan, he actually bowed his head on the spot and admitted his mistake, which he had never seen since he was a child.
At that time, Yuan Shao took advantage of this opportunity to count Yuan Shu well, and then Yuan Shu left Yuan Shao's big tent.
When Yuan Shu came out of the big tent, the humble smile on his face disappeared immediately. Then he changed into a hideous appearance.
He first glared at Yuan Shao's big tent viciously, and then gritted his teeth and said:
"Yuan Benchu, I can still accept some affection from you. But I didn't expect you to get an inch! Okay, since that's the case, don't blame me Yuan Highway for ruining your good deeds! ”
After finishing speaking, Yuan Shu angrily left Yuan Shao's big tent, and when he just returned to his camp, he received Sun Jian's request for grain and grass.
At that time, Yuan Shu kept this document in the brazier in his big tent, and then he continued to collect the grain and grass of other princes as if he had nothing to do.
But what Yuan Shu didn't know was that just when he threw Sun Jian's food request documents into the brazier, a convoy walked out of the camp of the Jizhou army.
The destination of this convoy is the Bishui Pass, where Sun Jian is now, and as a traverser, Liu Yuan is extremely clear about this period of history.
He had long known that Yuan Shu would not give Sun Jian food, but for the sake of Sun Jian's support a few days ago, he would not let Sun Jian suffer this loss.
Grain and grass are in his army, even if it is estimated that there will be no problem in supplying the entire coalition army, so Liu Yuan sent someone to send enough grain and grass to Sun Jian first.
As for what happened after that, then he, the deputy alliance leader, definitely wanted Yuan Shu to give an explanation, if Yuan Shu's statement could not satisfy him, then don't blame him for being ruthless!
As for the person who delivered the grain, Liu Yuan directly selected Guan Yu.
In the official history of later generations, there is no section of Guan Gongwen's wine beheading Huaxiong, but he hopes that this period of history can be born in his hands!
