Chapter 162 Indecisive Yuan Shao

It is said that the allied forces of the princes of all walks of life retreated, and Yuan Shu rolled up the grain and grass of the princes of all walks of life, and after returning to Nanyang, he expanded the army vigorously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

And Nanyang County, according to the records of the Later Han Dynasty, has 37 cities, 500,000 households, more than 2.4 million people, agriculture, commercial economy are extremely developed, can be said to be the largest county in the world, and next to Yuzhou Runan County, not too much, the scale is second only to Nanyang, with 37 cities, 400,000 households, 2.1 million people.

Although Luoyang is the political and economic center of the world, Nanyang, Runan and other places are not too reckless.

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion caused chaos in the two places for a while, it was quickly recovered, and although the population decreased, it was harmless.

Yuan Shu occupied Nanyang County, and Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou appointed by Dong Zhuo, did not dare to ask for it, but wanted to beware of Yuan Shu's attack.

And Runan County is the hometown of the Yuan family, which naturally became the strong backing of Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu has the most prosperous two counties in the world, with a population of millions, plus the grain and grass of the princes from all walks of life, and the army has been greatly expanded, and the army has reached an astonishing 200,000 in an instant, and the limelight is unique for a while.

On this day, in Bohai County, on the Taishou Mansion, Yuan Shao's face was gloomy, and the civil and military forces on both sides of the hall lowered their heads one by one, not daring to speak, but there was a messenger standing in the center of the hall.

The messenger held his head high, and he had the smell of command. This person is a messenger sent by Yuan Shu, named Yuan Zhi, he is not only the messenger of Yuan Shu, but also the domestic slave of the Yuan family, but he obeys Yuan Shu's orders.

"Eldest son, what do you think, now that my lord sits in Nanyang Runan and other places, with 200,000 armor, it is better for you to submit to my lord and assist my lord!" Yuan Zhi held his head high and said, not paying attention to Yuan Shao's trembling hands.

In the Yuan family, Yuan Shu has no son-in-law, but Yuan Shao is a concubine, although Yuan Shao is the eldest son, but Yuan Shu looks down on Yuan Shao, and even often treats Yuan Shao as a slave.

Now that Yuan Shu is rising, spanning Jingyu and 200,000 people, if it develops slowly, step by step, it will not be a problem to sweep the Central Plains, as if the world can be looked forward to.

However, Yuan Shao was trapped in the Bohai Sea, Jizhou had Han Fu, Youzhou had Liu Yu Gongsun Zan, and Qingzhou had Qingzhou Thorn Shi Kong Rong appointed by Liu Bian, and Bingzhou was Liu Bian's lair, surrounded by enemies. It can be said that Yuan Shao's territory in history was originally sitting on the four continents of Hebei and Qinghu, but now it is not easy to take one.

"Yuan Highway villain has the ambition, how can He De make me surrender to him?" Yuan Shao's eyes widened and he scolded angrily.

"Hehe, the eldest prince has to think clearly, the Yuan family can only have one voice, now that the lord of my family is rising, and the eldest prince is surrounded by enemies, the elders of the clan will only support my lord, why is the eldest prince stubborn?" Yuan Zhi sneered.

"The Yuan family can only have one voice, but it's not Yuan Shu, let alone you, a slave! If you commit a slave against your master, you should be punished for your crimes, and for the sake of the face of the highway, cut off your ears as punishment! Come on, cut off his ear! Yuan Shao said coldly.

"Yuan Benchu, you dare!" Yuan Zhi panicked in his heart and threatened.

"The lord doesn't dare, I dare!" On the right side of the hall, a strong man stepped out, but it was Yan Liang!

"What are you? Yuan Benchu is just a slave of my lord, you are just a slave of Yuan Benchu, and you dare to be presumptuous in front of me? This is the family matter of the Yuan family, how can you be involved as an outsider? Yuan Zhi suddenly shouted.

"Not only cut off his ears, but also gouged out his nose, tongue and eyes!" Yuan Shao was furious and slapped the table and shouted.

"Howler!" Yan Liang sneered, got Yuan Shao's order, pulled out his sword, and jumped in front of Yuan Zhi, only to see a flash of sword light.

"Ahh Yuan Zhi screamed, only to see his two ears fall to the ground, Yuan Zhi screamed in pain, covering his wounds with both hands, and screaming non-stop.

"Little house slave, dare to be presumptuous?" Yan Liang sneered.

"Yan Liang, you are looking for death, my lord will not let you go!"

"If you dare to say anything, I'll let you be speechless!" Yan Liang laughed angrily, clasped Yuan Zhi's chin with one hand, and pointed his sword into Yuan Zhi's mouth. Suddenly, Yuan Zhi's mouth was full of blood, and he couldn't speak.

"Take this person down and dispose of it, don't stain the lord's eyes!" Xu Yu on the side waved his hand.

"It's a military advisor!" Yan Liang held a sword in one hand and Yuan Zhi in the other, and walked outside the hall.

"Alas!" Yuan Shao sighed.

"The lord is going to be angry, this evil slave has been ambushed!" Xu Yu arched his hand.

"Ziyuan, I'm not angry about this, but I'm lamenting bad luck, thinking that Yuan Highway, now the momentum is flourishing, and I am trapped in the Bohai Sea, what can I do!" Yuan Shao sighed again.

"Hehe, lord, that Yuan Highway is in full swing at this time, in my opinion, it is just a dry bone in the mound, although it occupies the rich land of Huainan, but it is rampant, reckless, seemingly strong, but in fact vulnerable!" Xu You sneered.

"Even so, he has territory, soldiers and horses, but I, trapped in the Bohai Sea, only have 50,000 soldiers and horses!" Yuan Shao shook his head and said bitterly.

"My lord, although you only have the land of the Bohai Sea, the surrounding states in front of you can be used by the lord!" Xu You shook his head and smiled.

"How can it be used to me? Jizhou has Han Fu, Youzhou has Liu Yu Gongsun Zan, Qingzhou has Kong Rong, and Bingzhou is the territory of the Son of Heaven! ”

"Merge the state for the time being, but Jizhou Qingzhou and Youzhou are desirable!" Xu You said confidently.

"How?" Yuan Shao said to the effect, although these three states are not as rich as Nanyang, Runan and other places, they can add up, but they don't have to be bad with Yuan Shu, not to mention that these three states, unlike Yuan Shu's territory, are in the Central Plains, surrounded by enemies, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou are all by the sea, if they are connected, you only need to guard against the state, and you can attack other territories with peace of mind.

"Qingzhou Kong Rong, Jizhou Han Fu, Youzhou Liu Yu are all incompetent, in the whole of Hebei, only Gongsun Zan can compete with the lord, but Gongsun Zan is a reckless man, and he will not be the opponent of the lord!" Xu Yu analyzed the various enemies for Yuan Shao.

"And the lord is in Jizhou, he should first take Jizhou as the foundation, then Qingzhou, and finally Youzhou, and unify Hebei!"

Yuan Shao nodded, Jizhou is the first continent in the world, but it is good to have Jizhou as the foundation, but Jizhou has Han Fu, and it is not easy to take.

"Ziyuan, Han Fu's strength is not small, and his subordinates have Pan Feng, Ju Yi, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Wen Youfu and others, with my strength, I'm afraid I am not his opponent! It's better to take Qingzhou first, how about dealing with Han Fu? Yuan Shao said helplessly.

Yuan Shao saw that Han Fu was strong, but he didn't dare to act, and wanted to take Qingzhou, which was weak in strength, first, and then go to Jizhou. Sure enough, in response to Guo Jia's words, Yuan Shao did great things and spared his life, and forgot his life when he saw small profits.

"The lord can't, that Qingzhou Kong Rong is an incompetent person, he can't do it, he can't do it, and the remnants of the yellow turban in Qingzhou are all over the place, although the Son of Heaven is the history of Qingzhou, but he is still trapped in Beihai, unable to unify, chaotic, it is desirable to wave his hand here, but if he takes Qingzhou first, it will definitely cause Han Fu to be vigilant, and it will be difficult to take Jizhou at that time!" Feng Ji on the side also hurriedly objected.

"Qingzhou can't take it, and Jizhou can't get it, what can you do?" Yuan Shao asked with a frown.

"Lord, although Han Fu is the assassin of Jizhou, he is a protégé of the Yuan family, and he has a plan to keep that Han Fu and give Jizhou away!" Xu You smiled confidently. (To be continued.) )
