"The one who can be treated so carefully by Qiao Mao must be the high-level of the Nanyang Army! Even He Xian himself may not be able to tell! Since he dared to appear in Qiaofu with a swagger, he must have something to rely on. I dare to conclude that if Bo Fu returns to Anhui City now, he will definitely be in vain! ”

Sun Ce didn't believe it, so he asked Zhou Yu to camp on the spot with half of the Jiangdong soldiers to guard the Dayu Ding transported from Zhuji, and he led another 1,000 soldiers back to Anhui City overnight. As a result, Sun Ce really pounced.

He Qian took advantage of the time when Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were drinking in Qiaofu, and had already infiltrated the camp of the Jiangdong Army to find out that the gift they were going to give to Yuan Shu was the legendary Dayu Ding. After He Qian went back to tell He Xian, He Xian and Guo Jia decided to withdraw to Nanyang immediately to prepare for the war, and even gave up the expected trip to meet Lu Su. The two agreed that after Yuan Shu successively got the heirloom jade seal sent by Liu Biao and the Dayu Ding sent by Sun Jian, his ambitions will swell rapidly, and he is destined to make some moths that shock the world!

What made Sun Ce feel a little relieved was that Qiao Mao was still in Wancheng and had no movement to move to Nanyang. If Qiao Mao doesn't leave, Sun Ce will have a chance to get the second sister of the Qiao family.

"If you don't get your heart, you get your people...... Perhaps, it is also a good idea to give Xiaoqiao to his brother Zhou Yu to be trained......" Sun Ce secretly planned in his heart to urge the Jiangdong disciples to rush to Shouchun, and send Yuan Shu a gift of urgency.

In June of the fifth year of the Eastern Han Dynasty (194 AD), Yangzhou Mu Yuan Shu was overjoyed after getting the Dayu Ding sent by Sun Jian, and immediately pardoned Sun Jian's crime of "not listening to the tune", and also privately used the jade seal of the country, and crowned Sun Jian as the general of Pingdong, Jingzhou Mu, and Lu Bu as the general of Pingxi.

Yuan Shu has always believed that the surname Yuan came from Chen, and Chen was Shun, and he used soil to bear the fire, and he had to be lucky. I thought that Yu Wenyun: "Those who represent the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye." is talking about himself, so after Yuan Shu obtained the jade seal and Dayu Ding, he thought that this was the will of God and let himself ascend the throne as the emperor.

Yuan Shu convened a meeting of his subordinates and said: "Now that the Liu family has declined, the sea is boiling, and the four generations of our Yuan family are all important ministers in the court, and the people are willing to belong to me." I want to uphold the will of heaven, conform to the will of the people, and ascend the throne as emperor now, I don't know what the will of the kings will be?"

There are not many strategists under Yuan Shu, but there are a few people such as Yan Xiang, Yuan Lian, and Yuan Yin. Most of his subordinates are mainly second- and third-rate generals such as Ji Ling, Le Zhuo, Liang Gang, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo, Chen Lan, and Li Feng. After hearing that Yuan Shu wanted to ascend the throne and become the emperor, these big men and coarse people were all enthusiastic, thinking that they were about to become the heroes of the dragon, pay homage to the prime minister, and walk on the pinnacle of life. Immediately knelt down a large area, and said long live.

There were very few people standing. The military general Ji Ling is counted as one, it's not that he doesn't want to be a marquis and pay homage to the prime minister, but he just feels that it is very unsafe for Yuan Shu to be the emperor now. There is Cao Cao in the north, He Xian in the south, and although Lu Bu and Sun Jian help to resist in the east and west, these two people and Yuan Shu don't seem to be in the same mind. But Ji Ling didn't dare to talk nonsense, because he was a military general and was mainly responsible for fighting. Yuan Shu will not recognize the generals under his command, and his judgment of the strategic situation will be better than Yuan Shu's own. Even if this military general is recognized as Ji Ling, who has the most brains and the most experience in war under Yuan Shu, it can't be done! This is the reverse scale, which cannot be touched. Therefore, Ji Ling used his own non-kneeling to express his opinions politely.

Strategist Yuan Jian stood the most upright! Yuan Lian, the word Yaoqing, Chen County Fule people. His father, Yuan Peng, once served as the Situ of the Eastern Han Dynasty and was also a famous family. Although he has no direct blood relationship with the Yuan clan of Runan, he is an official in the same dynasty and has a good relationship. In order to avoid the disaster of war, Yuan Jian moved from Chen County to Jianghuai, and at the invitation of Yuan Shu, he served as his adviser and handled some government affairs. Yuan Lian's personality is originally relatively upright, and he was born in a family, and he is known for his courage to speak out.

Yuan Jian objected: "Back then, the Zhou people from their ancestor Houji to King Wen accumulated merit, and it can be said that there are two points in the world, but they are still cautious as courtiers of the Yin Shang Dynasty. Although you have been a high-ranking official for many years, I am afraid that you are not as prosperous as the Ji family; At present, although the Han family is declining, it seems that it can't be compared with the brutal and unscrupulous King Yin, right? ”

In the face of Yuan Shu's questioning, Yuan Shu was annoyed in his heart, and immediately blackened his face and remained silent.

Lord Bo Yanxiang knew Yuan Shu's ambition very well, and knew that Yuan Shu could not persuade Yuan Shu, so he refuted Yuan Shu according to Yuan Shu's intentions: "The Han Emperor lost the jade seal of the country, which shows that his virtue cannot be recognized by God. And the princess occupies the hinterland of Jianghuai, and there are prince-level figures such as Lu Bu and Sun Jian who are willing to be loyal, which shows that the lord is a person who obeys the mandate of heaven. It is the will of heaven to stand on behalf of the Han Dynasty, how can there be any doubt? ”

Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sealed Yan Xiang as Huainan Yin, widely placed the ministers and courtiers, and also built the altar used by the emperor to worship the emperor in the north of the south of Shouchun City, and ascended the throne and called the emperor, the country name "Dacheng", and the year name "Zhongxing". After becoming emperor, Yuan Shu's first thought was not to dominate the world and consolidate his rule, but to eagerly enjoy the benefits of being an emperor. set up a harem, recruited hundreds of beauties, all dressed in Luo Qili, and lived in obscenity every day; Wear a dragon robe embroidered with gold silk and eat the rarest delicacies of the mountains and seas. He turned a blind eye to the people under his rule and neglected to manage them. Willing to sit on Jianghuai and be a soil emperor. However, when the heroes are eyeing each other, how can Yuan Shu's ostrich tactics take advantage of it?

Nanyang, Wancheng. Since He Xian and Guo Jia mysteriously disappeared for a few months and returned mysteriously, the Hussar General's Mansion held several days of military and political meetings. The Nanyang Army, which had not been fighting for more than a year, began to move and make full preparations for the upcoming changes.

And when the news of Yuan Shu's proclamation of the emperor in Shouchun came, the palace of the Han Emperor in Nanyang issued a letter announcing to the world. In the text, it is clearly determined that Yuan Shu is a major crime of rebellion, and everyone will be punished! Whoever can kill Yuan Shu will be crowned a liehou! As soon as the text came out, the heroes from all over the world flocked to Shouchun. Within a month, there were several incidents of attempted murder of Yuan Shu. Frightened, Yuan Shu hid in the pseudo-palace in the center of Shouchun City and didn't dare to go out.

At the same time, He Xian issued an edict to Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian respectively in the name of the emperor, worshiping Lu Bu as the pastor of the state, Sun Jian as the pastor of Jiaozhou, and Cao Cao as the pastor of Jizhou, to jointly crusade against the traitor Yuan Shu!

This is a naked conspiracy!

If Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian wanted to accept the position of state pastor, they had to obey He Xian's dispatch and fight Yuan Shu together. Taking a step back, even if the three of them only want to get an official position and don't want to crusade against Yuan Shu, He Xian's move is equivalent to cutting off Yuan Shu's way to get reinforcements. Let Yuan Shujun only fight alone!
