Chapter 365: The Beginning of Civil Strife

Zhang Yuan only gave Guan Zhong only one year, and asked him to complete what Cao Cao could only do in three years, which was a difficulty for Zhong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Xiao Maha and other ministers on the left and right secretly frowned, revealing embarrassment, looking at the silent Guan Zhong, thinking that he did not dare to deal with this errand.

Unexpectedly, Guan Zhong was silent for only a moment, and then resolutely said: "Five months is five months, Zhong has taken over this burden." ”

"Okay, enough courage!"

Zhang Yuan patted the case and smiled excitedly: "Then I'll wait and see, when the time comes, can you hand over a Central Plains for me that can fight with Yuan Shao." ”

Summoned a virtuous minister, Zhang Yuan was very interested, so he asked to open dozens of jars of good wine, and he must not get drunk and not return.

Although the ministers were suspicious of this Guan Zhong, they did not dare to question Zhang Yuan's ability to recognize people, so they could only temporarily put aside their doubts about Guan Zhong and wait for five months later, what kind of answer sheet could this rising Jixian Pavilion Marquis be able to hand over to everyone.

The next day, under the instruction of Zhang Yuan, the Son of Heaven personally drafted a will, appointing Guan Zhong as the secretary of the order, and in Zhang Yuan's absence, he could take charge of the government on his behalf.

Zhang Yuan also issued his own Great Sima Order, handing over all the government affairs of the states to Guan Zhong, and ordered him to dispose of them with full authority.

On the second day of Guan Zhong's coming to power, he showed his extraordinary ability, and issued several government decrees, such as purging officials, clearing prisons, persuading farmers to cultivate mulberry, implementing tuntian, and began to govern the Central Plains for Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan is seizing every second of time to govern the Central Plains and prepare for the decisive battle with Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao in the north is naturally not idle.

Liangzhou Zhishuo, Jixian County.

Half a month after breaking through Yijing and defeating Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao's army was unstoppable, and entered the hinterland of Liangzhou with a devastating momentum.

The breakthrough of Jixian means that the entire Liangzhou has completely fallen into the hands of the Yuan family.

As for the rest of Yuyang, Daijun and other prefectures, Yuan Shao no longer even needed to send troops and horses to conquer, and a marquis could be sent out, and it could be passed on.

Breaking through Jixian County and unifying Hebei, Yuan Shao's achievements have also reached an unprecedented peak at this moment.

On the second day of the city's break, Yuan Shao couldn't wait to calm people's hearts, so he couldn't wait to go to the meeting with wine to celebrate this unprecedented victory.

The lobby of the military palace.

The aroma of wine overflowed, and in the praise and praise, Yuan Shao went to sit on it, tasted the wine, and smiled at the praise of Hou Wu.

Yuan Shao, who was slightly drunk, raised his eyes, and his gaze penetrated this hall, as if he glanced at the mountains and rivers of the four states of Hebei.

He is like his own "Yuan" character banner, such as Zhong flying in the sky above every city, and like the streets and alleys, everyone is praising his wisdom and martial arts, and it seems to...

The famous, swept away the foreign race of the White Horse Gongsun Chan was also destroyed by me, looking at the world, who is still my opponent!

At this moment, Yuan Shao's mind couldn't help but have this arrogant thought, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

In the laughter, Yuan Shao raised his glass and drank it all, and when he put down the cup, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a worried face.

That face, with a serious expression and a frown, was extremely discordant with the pleasant atmosphere present.

Yuan Shao's drunken eyes narrowed slightly, and he recognized the man with a bitter gourd face who was Wang Hui, the head of the Han Wang family who came to him not long ago.

"Wang Hui, I forgot, you had the same friendship with Gongsun Zhan at the beginning, and now that he has been destroyed by me, you should be very sad in your heart." Yuan Shao's tone was faintly displeased

In the face of Yuan Shao's question, Wang Hui's expression was not abnormal at all, he only bowed his hand slightly, and said with righteousness: "Although Hui and Gongsun Chan have the same friendship, but Yuan Gong is a general appointed by the imperial court. ”

Although Dong Zhuo coerced the Son of Heaven, he was afraid of Yuan Shao's strength, appointed Yuan Shao as a general in the name of the Son of Heaven, and also ordered Yuan Shao to crusade against Gongsun Zhan.

Yuan Shao nodded slightly, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, obviously Wang Hui's answer made him very satisfied.

"I see, but this full hall of Hou Wu is drinking and celebrating, but Wang Hui looks solemn and preoccupied, as if he is worried about something." Yuan Shao asked with a smile again.

Wang Hui took a light breath, but stood up, bowed his hand to Yuan Shao, and said: "Hui heard that Zhang Yuan, that traitor, has snatched the Central Plains Prefectures from Dong Zhuo, and also held the Son of Heaven hostage, forcing the Son of Heaven to make him the Great Sima, and trying in vain to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Hui felt that the Son of Heaven escaped from Dong Zhuo's tiger's mouth, but he fell into the clutches of Zhang Yuan, a traitor, which really made Hui worry about the situation of the Son of Heaven and the society of the Han Dynasty. ”

As soon as Wang Hui mentioned Zhang Yuan's name so loudly, the laughter and laughter in the entire hall immediately fell silent.

Yuan Shao's brows immediately frowned, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

I think that at the beginning, it was Zhang Yang's son who defeated his nephew in a row, forcing him to go to Liangzhou in person.

As a result, during the solo meeting, Zhang Yuan did not have the slightest respect for him, a super prince, and swept his face.

This hatred, Yuan Shao remembered in his heart, but because of the decisive battle with Gongsun Zhan, he had to let go of that kid first.

Now that Wang Hui mentions Zhang Yuan again, all kinds of old things come to mind, and Yuan Shao immediately feels disgusted.

Yuan Tan, who was sitting with him next, was also shocked, and his subconscious hand pressed to his abdomen, and the hatred that had been hidden in his heart for a long time burst into flames like a raging fire.

He will never forget that when Zhang Yuan was in Bingzhou, it was Ru Zhong who defeated him again and again, and it was Ru Zhong who snatched Cai Yan, the beauty of the child-faced Jufeng, from his hands.

It is even more impossible for him to forget that Zhang Yuan brutally castrated him and turned him from a man who stood up to the sky and the earth into a eunuch.

This hatred and hatred, Yuan Tan kept it in his heart day and night, if it weren't for the great cause of his father, he would have been unable to bear it, so he had to persuade his father to raise a large army to enter the state and tear that kid apart with his own hands.

What puzzled him was that the thief not only miraculously survived to the present, but also defeated strong enemies such as Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu and Liu Bao, seized the Son of Heaven, captured the Central Plains, and became the second largest prince in the world.

But that is like Zhong, now his Yuan family has destroyed Gongsun Zan and unified Hebei, with nearly 200,000 elite soldiers under his command, and more than 20,000 cavalry alone.

Don't say that a Zhang Yuan, even if the princes of the world are combined, they will still be crushed.

Now Wang Hui mentioned the old hatred in his heart, Yuan Tan's anger of revenge, instantly burst into flames, Teng jumped up, hugged his fists and said indignantly: "Father, Zhang Thief is rebellious, hijacking the Son of Heaven, usurping the government, and the heart of rebellion is known to everyone in the world. ”
