Chapter 292: The Troubled Times Unveiled
However, it is said that since Dong Zhuo's various fronts have been defeated, his subordinates have died, and they have withdrawn, and in the end, the so-called 21st Princes of the North-South Alliance have given up the great opportunity to pursue the victory due to conflicts of interest and selfishness, and some have withdrawn to their own jurisdictions, and some have even had disputes.
It was the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia that first struck out in disputes. It is said that half a month ago, Yuzhou assassin Shi Kong Ling suddenly died of illness, and his army was leaderless, and it was a big chaos. Yuan Shu and Yuan Yu suddenly attacked Kong Ling, and took the opportunity to send troops to attack Yuzhou, grabbing land and expanding their power.
On the other side, after returning to Chen Liu, Zhang Miao also seemed to be afraid of Cao Cao, and suddenly sent two armies to attack Cao Cao's base - Rencheng! And it was Cao Cao's humerus brother Cao Ren who guarded Rencheng.
Cao Ren seemed to have noticed it, so his brother Cao Hong led troops to set up an ambush, Zhang Miao's army unexpectedly, all the way to the rush, on the way was ambushed, lost the army, defeated and returned. When Zhang Miao heard the news, he was shocked, and soon heard a report from Xizuo, saying that Cao Cao had gathered nearly 50,000 or 60,000 refugees and displaced people in Guanzhong, and returned to kill Chenliu. Zhang Miao regretted it when he heard this, so he hurriedly sent someone to intercede with Cao Cao, and gathered troops and horses to prevent Cao Cao from attacking in a big way.
When the dispute broke out, Dong Zhuo ordered Li to set fire to Luoyang, which opened the prelude to the era of the princes competing for the Central Plains, and the princes everywhere seemed to have sensed the expansion of their power and the time to stand on their own feet was coming, and they showed their ambitions.
But he set his eyes on the east of the river again, and then went back to half a month ago.
It is said that at this time, not long after Ma Zongheng obtained Anyi City, the news was transmitted back to the sour jujube camp. Liu Dai and Qiao Mao were overjoyed when they learned that they wanted to raise troops to take over this rich land in Hedong. Liu Dai and Qiao Mao also sensed each other's intentions, and each was tempted. Qiao Mao even taught her to secretly send an emergency report, reminding Ma Zongheng to be careful.
At this moment, a person came to Liu Dai's account.
"Haha, I heard that Ben Chu successfully attacked Dong Thief's troops to Chang'an and captured countless gold, silver and jewelry, with this huge amount of gold, Ben Chu will definitely have a great achievement!" Liu Dai laughed loudly, but there was a hint of jealousy in his eyes. Everyone knows that what Yuan Shao has robbed is the treasures in the Liu Emperor's mausoleum, and it stands to reason that these gold, silver and jewelry should be returned to the heirs of the Han family first, and then returned to the Son of Heaven in the future. Of course, Liu Dai understands very well that now that the Han family has existed in name only, and there is no royal deterrent, it will be difficult to return Yuan Shao!
"I don't think Liu Jianshi's words are right." At this time, the man in the Chinese robe who was sitting in the second seat had a beautiful beard under his chin and smiled faintly.
When Liu Dai heard this, his face sank, although he couldn't guess the intention of Yuan Shao's faction at this time, he still decided to wait and see the changes first, and said: "Oh, Ziyuan has always had a vision, I don't know where I said it wrong?" ”
"What my lord has stolen from the Dong thieves is the treasures of the imperial tomb, but if the son is held hostage by the Dong thieves today, it stands to reason that he should return them to the most prestigious imperial relatives at the moment, how can he use them without permission?" Xu You said with a smile.
When Liu Dai heard this, he couldn't help but jump in his heart, although he was a little excited in his heart, but he also understood that there was no advantage in vain in the world, so he said in a deep voice: "What does Ziyuan mean?" ”
"Liu Tingshi sits in Yanzhou and is deeply loved by the people, and my lord has long admired it. It's just that at present, the princes of various places have raised troops to create rebellion, which will inevitably cause unnecessary chaos, and my lord thinks that he should transport these treasures back to Bohai first, and then transfer them to Liu Tingshi after the situation is a little stable. Xu Youse said lightly without changing his heartbeat, but Liu Dai couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva, God knows how many treasures Yuan Shao snatched from Dong Jackal's tiger mouth.
Everyone has the love of money. Liu Dai is no exception, not to mention that these are themselves the burial objects of his ancestors.
Therefore, Liu Dai is not polite, no matter how much Yuan Shaoken gives, it is better to talk than nothing. What's more, Yuan Shao also said it, if he gives less, I'm afraid he won't be able to get over his face.
"The original righteousness, thinking that my Han family has fallen so far, but there are still such loyal and righteous people, it is really a great luck in misfortune. I don't know what else is going on when the son comes from afar? The advantage is that the negotiation is done first, Liu Dai also opened the skylight and said something bright, and now his eyes flashed, and he asked very directly.
"Okay, Liu Tingshi is quick to talk, I don't have to hide it anymore. Now the Dong thief has retreated to Sanfu, has hundreds of officials in the world, and moved the capital to Chang'an. This was supposed to be a great opportunity to annihilate the thieves, but the princes everywhere had bad intentions, took the opportunity to create chaos, and plundered the territory everywhere, all wanting to hold the land and become a hegemon! In this way, the Han family really existed in name only. Every time my lord thinks about it, he is all sad, and he thinks that Liu Tingshi is the royal prince of the Han family, and he must have the heart to serve the court, so he wants to form an alliance with Liu Tingshi and eradicate the thieves in all parts of the world. Xu You suddenly changed his normal behavior, and said sharply, Liu Dai's face changed, but he suddenly understood why Yuan Shao wanted to return the treasures of the imperial tomb to Bohai, which was originally used as a bargaining chip, but if he refused, I am afraid that Yuan Shao would refuse to return it for another reason.
"In the past, Tian Yuanhao came up with a plan to divide the troops here, so there is a situation where the Dong thieves are all defeated today. Originally, I had the intention of forming an alliance with me, I must have asked Tian Yuanhao before, but I didn't know how Tian Yuanhao would set the future trend for this alliance? Liu Dai's face sank, but he was also scheming, and he didn't agree to Xu Yu immediately.
Xu You's eyes flashed a little unhappy when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal, Ying Ying smiled, and said: "If the Liu and Yuan families are allied, my lord will take Jizhou first, and immediately Youzhou Gongsun Zan is afraid that my lord will attack, and ask Liu Tingshi for help." At that time, I only hope that Liu Tingshi will agree on the surface, and only deceive him with false soldiers, and my lord has his own plan to deal with it. After taking Youzhou, my lord will return the favor and send troops to help Liu Tingshi obtain Qing and two states. As long as the Liu and Yuan families can work with one heart and one mind, within three years, they can obtain the entire north of the world, and then use this as a basis to expand their power, why worry that the Han family cannot be revived!? ”
When Liu Dai heard this, his body couldn't help but tremble, but it was not that he had never seen a big scene, but that Yuan Shao's conditions were too rich, making it difficult for him to hold on. In Xu You's words just now, if you simply understand it, it means that he, Liu Dai, can take down Qing and the two states with the help of Yuan Shao almost without making a big move, and as a condition, he only needs to watch the fire from the other side, and then secretly do some cooperation!
It's so tempting, it's so lucrative, and don't forget there's a treasure worth it!
"Yuan Benchu did not hesitate to spend such a bloody investment, I'm afraid it is not so simple. Of course, if he wants to expand his power rapidly in Hebei, he will have to unite with me. After all, Han Fu's good old man is now obedient to Yuan Benchu's words, and sooner or later Yuan Benchu will be the main anti-guest. In addition, Youzhou Liu Yu has no ambitions, and only Gongsun Chan can pose a threat to him. But once he Yuan Benchu and I turn against each other, Liu Yu and I are both royal relatives of the Han family after all, and we will unite to deal with him. In other words, if he wants to realize his grand cause, he has to please me Liu Dai first! Thinking of this, Liu Dai couldn't help grinning, it seemed that he suddenly figured it out, and said with a smile: "Originally, if there are only a few loyal and righteous people left today, I will not refuse to ally with him." ”
As soon as Liu Dai said this, Xu You immediately laughed, stood up very excitedly, and bowed his hand: "It is the luck of my family to be so appreciated by Liu Tingshi." ”
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome!" Seeing this, Liu Dai seemed to be very satisfied.
But he didn't want Xu Yu to sneer secretly in his heart at this time, and he was just pretending, which made Liu Dai more proud and relaxed. In fact, what Yuan Shao is really afraid of is another person.
"It turns out that the two families of Liu and Yuan are already allies, and there is something I don't know if to say?" Xu You's expression suddenly sank, and he hesitated for a while before he said.
Liu Dai was proud in his heart, and when he heard this, he immediately sank and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it!" ”
"That's offended, if you offend, I hope Liu Tingshi Mo will mind." When Xu You heard this, he first bowed respectfully, and after seeing Liu Dai bowing his head slightly, he said: "The so-called outside must first be inside." Although Liu Tingshi sits in Yanzhou, it seems to be calm on the surface, but in my opinion, Yanzhou is full of dangers, but in case, Liu Tingshi Mo said that in the future, the revival of the Han family, I am afraid that even the place of residence will be taken away by others! ”
As soon as Xu You's words came out, Liu Dai's face suddenly changed drastically, and he slapped the case suddenly, got up angrily, glared and shouted: "Who dares to take my Yanzhou!? ”
Liu Dai was furious at this time, but he didn't know that he was paving the way for this just now. Xu You laughed secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he made a look of horror, and hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "The villain should be damned, talking nonsense." I also hope that Liu Thorn Shi will spare the villain's life~! ”
"Nonsense novel, if it weren't for the fact that I promised the alliance just now, and for your lord's face, I would have taken your dog's life now!! Quickly get the word clear and get out of here!! Liu Dai was arrogant, but he was splashed with cold water by Xu Yu, and it was difficult to let go. And Xu You seemed to have hit Liu Dai's weakness, and suddenly made Liu Dai so angry that his face turned hideous.
And the more angry Liu Dai was, the more angry he became, and he happened to fall into Xu You's arms.
"Please also ask Liu Tingshi to calm his anger. These things are not my turn as an outsider, but the little one heard that the bridge family had already made a marriage contract with Ma Xi, and the little one thought that Ma Xi was brave and good at fighting, and there was no shortage of fierce generals under his command, even my lord was extremely jealous of him, and there were so many heavy troops in Hedong at the beginning, and he was still captured, which shows that this son should not be underestimated.
In addition, now that Ma Xi has a great reputation in the army, the small Yanzhou faction is all proud of it. And the Qiao family is rich, and there is Dongjun for the foundation, and now Ma Xi has Hedong again, if there is the slightest evil intention in the future, I am afraid that my lord is fighting outside at that time, and it is difficult to rescue in time! Xu You's words were heart-wrenching at this time, and Liu Dai couldn't help but sweat profusely, and his face trembled.
"Hmph, whether it is Qiao Mao or Ma Xi, they are loyal to me, I don't need to be reminded by an outsider like you in my own family affairs, get out!!" Liu Dai suddenly waved his hand, and his eyes suddenly showed a bit of fierceness.
