Chapter 017: Jizhou Pair

After Yuan Shao got Jizhou, he received a large number of talents from Han Fu, the most important of which was Guangping's Fu Zhu, who was also the first top strategist to appear in the Three Kingdoms era.

After Yuan Shao seized Jizhou, he appointed him as a contractor at first, and asked Fu Zhu: "Now the traitorous ministers are in turmoil, and the emperor is wandering around. My family has been favored by the emperor for generations, and is determined to do his best to revitalize and restore the world of Liu Han with his own strength and life. However, it is impossible for Duke Qi Huan to achieve hegemony without Guan Zhong, and it is impossible for Gou Jian to save the Yue Kingdom without Fan Li. Now that I want to work with you to bring the country to stability, what strategies do you use to help me? ”

Fu Zhu replied: "General, you entered the court as an official at the age of twenty, and your fame soon spread throughout the sea; Later, the government was chaotic, and the traitorous ministers conspired to abolish the monarch and set up another one, but it was you who was righteous and upright to uphold justice and stop the rebellious ministers and thieves from doing wrong. You rode out of Luoyang alone, which made Dong Zhuo have fear after all; You cross the Yellow River to the north, and the people of Bohai County sincerely welcome your arrival. Now you are in command of the elite soldiers and strong generals of Bohai County, and you have newly added the land and people of Jizhou, which is really powerful and famous all over the world. Nowadays, although the Yellow Turban anti-thieves are attacking everywhere, and there are also grass robbers in the Black Mountain area, as long as you wave your army to the east, the Yellow Turban anti-thieves in Qingzhou will definitely be annihilated in one fell swoop; Returning to the division to sweep the Black Mountain, where the grass robbers are in trouble. The edge points to Yu and Yan, and Gongsun Chan will be destroyed; Threatening Rong Di by force, the Xiongnu will also bow down.

In this way, the general swept north of the Yellow River, merged the territories of the four states, and used this to recruit the world's talents, and had a million heroes under his command, bringing back the Son of Heaven and hundreds of civil and military officials from Chang'an, and rebuilding the capital and the temple in Luoyang. Then you will command the world in the name of the imperial court to conquer the rebels and rebels who refuse to submit. With such momentum, who in the world can be your enemy? In a few years, such a masterpiece will be completed in your hands. ”

In the second year of the first peace (191), he put forward the first complete strategic policy in the history of the Three Kingdoms, because it was mentioned in Jizhou, so it was referred to as "Jizhou pair" (or Ji Liu), and two years later Zhang Hongcai proposed his own "Jiangdu pair" to Sun Ce, and more than ten years later, Lu Su and Zhuge Liang respectively had their own "couch pair" and "Longzhong pair".

In the "Jizhou pair", he also put forward the idea of "coercing the Son of Heaven and ordering the princes" for the first time in the history of the Three Kingdoms, which was almost a year earlier than Jia Xu, and its original text was "Yingda drove in Xijing, restored the temple in Luoyi, and ordered the world to seek the unrecovered".

He first gave an overview of Yuan Shao's previous situation, and then gave a brief explanation of Yuan Shao's current situation, so as to further put forward the strategic policy of Yuan Shao Group in the future.

The first step is to seize the north and recover the minority forces in the north. Specifically, it includes the control of Jizhou, including the control of Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou, and the four northern states of Bingzhou, and at the same time the submission of ethnic minorities such as the Xiongnu in the north.

At the beginning of Yuan Shao's seizure of Jizhou, Qingzhou in the east had become a disaster with the Yellow Turban, and there was a tendency to merge with the Montenegrin army, and Gongsun Zan of Youzhou in the north had a strong military strength, while Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou, was loyal to the Han family and was a couple.

Therefore, if Yuan Shao wants to pacify the north, he must first quell the internal Yellow Turban Rebellion, and secondly, only Gongsun Chan is slightly threatened, but Gongsun Chan is not the master of Youzhou after all, and only a strong military force is not enough to threaten Yuan Shao.

After Yuan Shao further controlled Youzhou in the north, he began to face the Xiongnu and other ethnic minorities, although the Xiongnu and other ethnic groups were fierce at that time, they were not the opponents of the Han people in the Central Plains, so Yuan Shao could further expand his strength after gaining the support of the northern ethnic groups.

In the process of constantly expanding his power, Yuan Shao can use his fame to continuously absorb talents and enrich his talent pool.

After Yuan Shao has enough strength, he can start the next step of planning and control the Son of Heaven to obtain the title of righteousness.

At that time, Emperor Xian was held hostage by Dong Zhuo to Chang'an, and Yuan Shao was still unable to confront the powerful Xiliang Army Group by relying on Jizhou alone, so Yuan Shao needed to accumulate strength in the early stage, and after Yuan Shao received the support of the four northern states and the Xiongnu and other ethnic minorities, he could already fight with Dong Zhuo again.

And Yuan Shao, as the leader of the anti-Dong coalition army, also has a blood feud with Dong Zhuo, whether it is public or private, Yuan Shao has the obligation to eliminate Dong Zhuo and welcome back the Han family.

Once Yuan Shao defeated Dong Zhuo, welcomed Emperor Xian back to the old capital Luoyang, avenged the blood revenge, and fulfilled the obligations of the alliance leader, then at this moment Yuan Shao's great cause can be said to have been completed ninety percent.

After Yuan Shao controlled Emperor Xian, and then had the strongest strength and righteousness, there was basically no one in the world to be invincible, Yuan Shao only needed to crusade against other princes who did not obey the central government one by one in the name of righteousness, and he could complete his imperial cause.

At that time, it seemed that no one among the princes under the heavens could stop Yuan Shao, who owned the four northern states and controlled the Son of Heaven at the same time.

Although Yuan Shao's main enemy in the plan of "Jizhou Pair" was not explicitly stated, it was still Dong Zhuo, although Dong Zhuo had been driven to Chang'an by Sun Jian at that time, he still controlled the land of Guanxi, and he still had Emperor Han Xian, the son of heaven, and his strength could not be underestimated, so Yuan Shao had to accumulate strength in the early stage.

What's more, if Yuan Shao wants to win the world, Dong Zhuo and Emperor Xian are both necessary.

Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance, needs to defeat Dong Zhuo, the public enemy of the world, to complete his obligations, so Dong Zhuo must die, and the emperor represents the righteousness, and it is also the original goal of the anti-Dong coalition army, of course, he can't let it go.

The significance of the "Jizhou pair" to Yuan Shao is no less than the significance of the "Longzhong pair" to Liu Bei, long before the capture of Jizhou, Yuan Shao already had the idea of seizing the world based on Jizhou, and the "Jizhou pair" of the frustration is a further supplement and improvement of Yuan Shao's original strategy, so that Yuan Shao has a clear strategy.

The "Jizhou pair" of the frustrated professor coincided with Yuan Shao's original strategic thinking of first the north and then the south, so the frustrated professor got the important task of Yuan Shao, and was promoted by Yuan Shao as the general of Fenwei to supervise the generals under Yuan Shao, and the frustrated professor also became the second person in the Yuan Shao group.

But it's a pity that Yuan Shao and Fu Zhu's ideas are still different, Yuan Shao was stubborn for various reasons, and he could no longer listen to Fu Zhu's advice, missed many opportunities, and failed to completely complete the goal of "Jizhou Pair", Yuan Shao finally lost the world, and Fu Zhu also lost his life.

In history, the "Jizhou pair" of frustration is not inferior to Zhuge Liang's "Longzhong pair", and the time is far before the "Longzhong pair", but in the end, the "Jizhou pair" of frustration and its "Jizhou pair" is completely infamous in the history of the Three Kingdoms, although there are other factors, but this is also embarrassing.
