"Wen You, what you said about Emperor Han, how should you deal with Lonely. No matter how lonely you think, you feel like chicken ribs, the food is tasteless, and it's a pity to abandon it! Liu Yuan asked suddenly.

Li Ru was silent, he also understood that taking Chang'an and capturing the Son of Heaven dealt a great blow to the prestige of the Han Dynasty. But for Liu Yuan, it is really difficult for the Son of Heaven to be of any great use, at most the news will be transmitted back to boost the morale of the people. Change the warlord, or you can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Hu Xia, it's hard to be of great use.

Seeing the inexplicable expression on Liu Yuan's face, Li Ru arched his hand and asked, "King, you seem to have an idea?" ”

"You say, how about making a deal between Lone and Yuan Shao?" Liu Yuan smiled slyly.

"Deal?" Li Ru was a little surprised.

"The name of righteousness is not needed, but for Yuan Shao, the princes of the Han family, it should be a big temptation!" Liu Yuan's eyes lit up a little.

"The king wants to take the Son of Heaven as a hostage and trade with Yuan Shao!" Li Ru's figure was shocked. Seeing the smile on the corner of Liu Yuan's mouth, Li Ru was speechless for a while, this is the Son of Heaven, Liu Yuan actually wants to treat him with goods.

……

The news that Liu Yuan captured Chang'an and the Son of Heaven was trapped soon spread from Sanfu to Huaxia. For a time, the world was shaken, and the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty fell into the hands of the Hu people, which made the people with lofty ideals who were loyal to the Han in the world feel like mourning.

caused a lot of turmoil, and many people under the command of the princes asked for orders to go west and rescue the Son of Heaven. Before the Son of Heaven was in the hands of Li Guo, although Li Guo was a rebellious minister and thief, he was a Han after all, what is going on with this Hu Xia.

The states and counties of Dahan are excited. But the people below were jubilant, and the decision was still in the hands of the princes in power.

Youzhou, outside Jixian County, layers of Yuan army joint camps, surrounded the city. The siege of the city has become more and more dangerous, and it is not far from destruction.

Yuan Shao was victorious, taking advantage of the siege of the city, the counties of Youzhou were almost decided, like Xian Yufu and other Youzhou troops, they also surrendered, and Badun also made friends with Yuan.

The Xia army that invaded Youzhou was also blocked by its troops. Seeing that it was not far from eliminating Gongsun Zhan, conquering Youzhou, and realizing the strategic goal of going north, Yuan Shao was in a good mood.

"My lord! Guanzhong reported that the Xia army had defeated the Guanzhong coalition army, broken Chang'an, and the Son of Heaven fell into the hands of the Xia State! Receiving first-hand news from the rear, in a hurry, Xu Yu entered Yuan Shao's big tent to report.

Yuan Shaozheng was discussing with a group of civil and military officers how to give Gongsun Zan the final blow and end the war in Youzhou, when he suddenly heard the news, he couldn't help but lose his voice: "So fast!" Li Guo 100,000, blocking Liu Yuan in Hongnong, how could the situation take such a turn! ”

The Chinese Wu was also a little surprised, most people were surprised by how quickly the Xia army broke through the enemy and captured the pass, and a few people caught a little, and the Son of Heaven fell into the hands of the Xia army.

Xu You quickly brought together the battle situation in Guanzhong that he had discovered. Hearing this, Yuan Shao said with some hatred: "Li Guo is useless, Liu Yuan is too cunning!" ”

"My lord, now in Jizhou, the crowd is surging, and all places have jointly written a letter requesting that troops be sent to conquer Hu Xia to save the Son of Heaven!" Xu Yu said.

Yuan Shao immediately frowned, the battle in Jixian County was at the most critical time, and the main force of the Yuan army was stationed here. At this time, he withdrew his troops to attack Xia, and he would do this when his brain was hot.

"Gentlemen, the Son of Heaven has fallen into the hands of Hu Lu, and the liver and gall of the lonely people are broken, and I can't wait to raise troops to the west to rescue him! Now I'm at a loss, I don't know what to do, can I have a strategy? With a heart-wrenching expression on his face, Yuan Shao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked the people in the account.

Several advisers, silent for a while, basically knew Yuan Shao's thoughts, at the moment Youzhou is the top priority, the son of heaven in Chang'an, where can he manage so much.

The ministers didn't speak, and a general stood out at the bottom, it was Wen Chou, who said excitedly when he saw it: "Lord, Chang'an is broken, the Son of Heaven is captured by Hu Xia, Han Zuo is dead, please lord ascend the throne and claim the emperor, inherit the unification!" ”

As soon as these words fell, the tent was full of shock, and several strategists unanimously said: "No! ”

I saw Tian Feng get up and say fiercely: "Lord, the Son of Heaven is in danger, and the whole country is lamenting!" Thinking from top to bottom, rescue the Son of Heaven. Claiming to be the emperor is really a chaotic act of a thief, which will cause the whole country to scold and lose people's hearts, and it must not be done! ”

Yuan Shao's head is very sober, and he just listens to the ugly words, although he is also very itchy about the throne, and he does not dare to risk the world's disapproval at this time. Immediately scolded: "Shut up! I, Yuan, have received the grace of the country, how can I do this reversal! ”

Seeing Yuan Shao's "righteous face", Wen Chou retreated.

"What is Lone going to do now?" After settling down, Yuan Shao asked in a deep voice.

"For today's plan, it is still important to Youzhou! It can't be delayed, at this time, our army needs to break Jixian as soon as possible, capture and kill Gongsun Zhan, and completely pacify Youzhou. Xun Chen sighed: "As for the matter of Chang'an, let's see how the other princes react!" ”

Yuan Shao's eyes froze, and he shot the case, and made a final decision: "Pass the order, go all out to attack Jixian County tomorrow, don't break the city, and vow not to truce!" ”

"No!"

……

Xuzhou, Xiapi, after a long hard battle, Cao Cao finally set foot on the head of Xiapi City, and the defenders of Xuzhou were defeated. This time to attack Xuzhou, there was no Lu Bu behind the lair, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong were also honest, Cao Bing was prosperous with his army, and Xuzhou was difficult to resist.

When the city was broken, Tao Qian killed himself, and the pottery merchant brothers surrendered together with the family in the city. Liu Bei, with more than 3,000 soldiers, broke through the siege and fled west under the escort of Guan Zhang.

The city fell, everywhere needed to be stabilized, Cao Cao was very busy, and he had no intention of caring about Liu Bei's remnant army, so he only sent Cao Chun and Le Jin to lead the army to chase after him.

"My lord! There is an urgent report in Guanzhong, please take a look! Xi Zhicai hurriedly rushed to the lobby, his face was a little red, it must be a big deal to make him lose his temper like this.

Cao Cao was meeting with the representatives of the Xuzhou family, Chen Qi and Chen Deng's father and son, and they had a very happy conversation. Seeing that his henchmen were so anxious, Cao Cao's expression also changed: "Chang'an, isn't the battle of Guanzhong a result?" Present! ”

After receiving the list of letters, Cao Cao's face also changed slightly, he took a deep breath, and said to Chen Deng next to him: "Han Yu, don't drive for Xuzhou, help Xuzhou stabilize Xuzhou." Yuanlong, worship you alone for Guangling Taishou, Yuan Shu in the west, and Jiangdong in the south! ”

"Thank you, Lord! Retire under the next! The father and son glanced at each other, knowing that something big would happen in the west, and they also knew how to advance and retreat, so they took the initiative to leave.

"You and I only know that Xia Jun is attacking Sanfu, but I didn't expect Li and Guo to lose so quickly, and I didn't expect the fall of the Son of Heaven, and we ignored the Son of Heaven!" Cao Cao sighed.

Xi Zhicai coughed a few times, panting a little: "Lord, the Xia army has taken Chang'an, and the situation in the world will change again, Hu Xia is no longer a force nested in the region of Bingzhou." Guanzhong is a beautiful place, fertile fields for thousands of miles, if it is obtained, with Liu Yuan's wrist and based on it, it can become a strong Qin, plus the people of the grassland, it will be even more difficult to deal with! ”

Xi Zhicai slowed down, and said: "That's it, Guanzhong is dilapidated, there is Liangzhou in the west, Bashu in the south, and the Xia army is too rigid, at this time, Hu Xia will also expand to the limit." But the loss of the Son of Heaven is too big a blow to the big man, and I am afraid that people's minds will change! ”

"Xuzhou has to stabilize as soon as possible!" Cao Cao was very calm, thought about it, and ordered decisively: "Order Cao Ren, since Chen Liu, lead 10,000 troops to the west, hold high the banner of rescuing the Son of Heaven, and attack Heluo!" ”

"This world is the first to set an example, and I Cao Cao will take the lead!"

"The lord is wise!"

......

Jiujiang, after fighting with Sun Jian for a long time, finally repelled Sun Jian's army and drove back to the south of the Lujiang River. Of course, this is the result of Sun Jian's initiative to withdraw his troops, and Yuan Shu's background is still there, and it is not cost-effective to continue to consume it.

Jiangdong provided him with 30,000 elites, and there was some pressure, and the rule of the counties was not reliable, and then Shanyue rebelled in the back, and under the persuasion of Huanjie and other strategists, he withdrew to Jiangdong in the south, intending to stabilize the rear and plan for the future.

seized several cities in the north of the Lujiang River, and it was not nothing, and besides, Yuan Shu could be regarded as having a clear understanding. When he is fully prepared, he will not return in vain.

On the way back to the army, the changes in Guanzhong also reached Sun Jian's ears. I still sigh a little, I was begging Dong and Xia at the beginning, and I was planning for the big man, but now I ...... Times have changed.

"The Son of Heaven fell into the hands of Hu Xia, and he was indignant! Chang'an is too far away from us, we can't manage it! "Back in Wu County, there are many people under the subordinates who are talking about Chang'an, Sun Nut decided to summon the civil and military, and said directly.

Seeing Sun Jian's expression, Huan Jie, Zhang Zhao and the others knew that Sun Jian was a little dissatisfied with the recent discussions.

Zhang Zhao said: "My lord, the Son of Heaven has fallen into Hulu, the impact is too great, even if we live in Jiangdong, we can't ignore it!" ”

"Why, Zibu also hopes to send troops alone, thousands of miles to the west, crusade against Liu Yuan, and rescue the Son of Heaven?" After becoming a prince on this side, Sun Jian had already changed, and at this time, he would not consider the fallen son of heaven who was far away in the sky. It is the right way to reorganize the army and build his Sun family.

"The subordinates didn't mean that!" Zhang Zhao shook his head: "At least we have to show something to calm the hearts of the corporals and the people!" ”

When Sun Jian heard this, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Then send a letter and condemn Hu Xia!" After you return to your duties, you should be appeased, I don't want you to forget your duties because of the changes in Guanzhong! ”

Zhang Zhao's face was stunned when he heard this, Sun Jian thought about it for so long, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Reprimand......

"Okay, now, stabilizing Jiangdong is the first priority!" Sun Jian changed the topic: "This time the northern attack on Yuan Shu returned in vain, because of the restlessness in the rear. Lonely news, the children of the Jiangdong family, there are many illegal things, disturbing the people, it is time to rectify it! ”

Zhang Zhao frowned when he heard this, Sun Jian, is this going to take the Jiangdong family.

Jiangdong is indeed a good place, but the strength of this family is really not weak, Sun Jian suddenly annexed the counties, in addition to the strong army, it is relying on the support of the family. It's just that the Jiangdong family is mostly xenophobic and self-controlled, and has no sense of expansion, and Sun Jian feels quite constrained by several expeditions, which is intolerable to Sun Jian, who has a rigid personality and is aggressive.

"Also, the lonely is out on the expedition, and the more intrusions there are in the mountains! With this rat and ant family hiding in the mountains behind, how can Lone go west and north with all his strength, and it must be exterminated! Sun Jian said coldly again: "Even Liu Biao is exterminating the barbarians in Jingnan, how can Lone lag behind him!" ”

Jiangdong, after Sun Jian made up his mind to rectify the rule, will usher in another wave of turmoil.

……

Compared with Sun Jian, Yuan Shu naturally got the news of Chang'an earlier. Repelled Sun Jian, Yuan Shu returned to Shouchun "proudly", and when he got this "good news", he couldn't help but shout loudly.

Everyone else was lamenting the misfortune of the Son of Heaven, and Yuan Shu couldn't help but be overjoyed the first moment he learned the news. There was already a dissent in his heart, and the changes in Guanzhong made a certain thought that Yuan Shu had been "hiding" uncontrollably beating.

locked himself indoors and didn't meet anyone, but Yuan Shu's "howl" came out of it, which made many people outside scratch their heads.

"Sir, what's the matter, father?" Yuan Yao asked Yuan Shu's close minister Yang Hongdao.

Yang Hong stroked his short beard like a show, with a strange light in his eyes, and whispered to Yuan Yao: "The lord is fine, just a little excited!" ”

"Excited?" Yuan Yao was even more puzzled: "The previous defeat to Cao Cao, the loss of tens of thousands of troops and several counties in Yuzhou, now the side has repelled Sun Jian, Huainan is tired, and there have been great changes in Guanzhong, what is there to be excited about!" ”

When Yang Hong heard this, he glanced around, both large and small, and explained to Yuan Yao softly: "Chang'an has fallen, the Son of Heaven is bound to Hu Xia, this Han Zuo is dead, and the sky of this Han is about to change!" I'm afraid it's ......"

Speaking of this, Yang Hong stopped, he had always been able to touch Yuan Shu's thoughts.

"Han Zuo is dead!" Yuan Yao muttered.

Yuan Lian, who was on the side, heard Yang Hong's words, and his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was worried.

At this time, Yuan Shu stayed alone in the small room, and with excitement on his face, he took out a jade box from the dark pavilion and opened it, and the jade seal of the country was in it. When he fought with Sun Jian in Yuzhou, he forced Sun Jian to seek peace with this thing, and then let him return to Jiangdong.

Now that he is raising tigers, he has come north several times to harass his governance, but Yuan Shu will never regret it. For the jade seal, he is very precious, and he takes it out from time to time and wipes it himself. This square piece of jade, falling into his hands, seems to represent his destiny.

Now that the Chang'an incident has come, Yuan Shu's heart has rippled again. The phrase "those who represent the Han Dynasty, when Tu Gao" lingered in my ears incessantly.

Playing with the jade seal with bright eyes, the naked bodies of the beauties in his mansion had never made Yuan Shu so intoxicated, and for a while, Yuan Shu was a little stupid.

……

The one who reacted almost the same as Yuan Shu was probably Liu Yan who nested in Yizhou. Of course, Liu Yan would not be as unstable as Yuan Shu, but he still made a heart-wrenching gesture, and personally clothed himself and ordered the whole army to go north out of Hanzhong, attack the Xia army, and rescue the Son of Heaven.

Under Liu Yan, there is no shortage of smart people, so he naturally understands Liu Yan's thoughts. That unsubordinate, under Liu Yan's subordinates, almost everyone knows it, and cooperated with Liu Yan to act in a play.

Can't go out, maybe it's too sad, Liu Yan was so hurt that he "fainted", and for a while, Yizhou praised the loyalty of the state pastor.

However, Liu Yan is really worried, his three sons are still in Chang'an, and they fell into the hands of Xia Jun, which is not good, and he has to find a way to rescue them. Otherwise, even if he makes a lot of trouble in Yizhou and creates the next foundation, no one will inherit it, it will not be beautiful.

While dreaming of the emperor, Liu Yan began to send spies to Chang'an, and this son still had to be rescued.
