Chapter 0708: Conspiring with the Enemy Yuan Shu
What Chen Jiao thought of was a famous person in Yingchuan Xuchang.
This person's surname is Chen Mingqun, and the words are long.
The Yingchuan Chen family is a famous family in the world.
Although the Chen family did not prosper for a long time, it had a great influence during the Han and Han dynasties, especially in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Chen Qun's grandfather, surnamed Chen Mingyu. Although the official is not the best, he is very famous. and his two sons, Chen Ji and Chen Zhan, are known as the "Three Gentlemen", and are also known as the "Four Chiefs of Yingchuan".
Among the four elders of Yingchuan, including Zhong Hao's great-grandfather Zhong Hao, Xun Yu's grandfather Xun Shu. Together with these people, Chen Yu's reputation can be seen.
Chen Qun's father, Chen Ji, is also famous all over the world.
He Jin, the former general, once went to the mansion in person and worshiped him as an official.
Dong Zhuo controlled the government and government, and also went to Chen's mansion in person to worship him as a general with five senses.
……
Chen's fame is world-renowned.
Chen Yu is deceased, and Chen Ji is also old. However, in the Chen family, there is still a young Chen Qun.
If Chen Qun can be persuaded to go to Luoyang together and ask the Luoyang court to send troops, he will definitely be able to impress the Son of Heaven and Liu Mang.
Chen Jiao immediately rushed to Xuchang to meet Chen Qun.
Chen Qun warmly received Chen Jiao. However, when Chen Jiao invited him to go to Luoyang with him, Chen Qun looked embarrassed.
"My father is old and resigned. If the group leaves home, it is for unfilial piety, and Brother Ji Bi forgives me. ”
Chen Jiao repeatedly persuaded Chen Qun, but Chen Qun just refused, insisting on staying at home and taking care of his father Chen Ji.
Chen Jiao was helpless, but unwilling.
walked out of the main hall, suddenly ran to the door of the backyard, and shouted loudly: "Guangling Chen Jiao, ask to see Chen Gong!" ”
It is very rude to shout like this. But Chen Jiao can't take care of a lot for the sake of national affairs.
Chen Qun's father, Chen Ji, was originally an official in the court, but because of his old age and frailty, he resigned and returned to his hometown to recuperate.
I heard someone shouting outside, and ordered someone to call Chen Jiao.
When Chen Jiao saw Chen Ji, he first bowed down and apologized, and then said: "Boy Chen Jiao, seeing that the people of Yuzhou are living like fire and water, they are miserable. I want to invite the son of the Chen family, Changwen, to persuade the Luoyang court to send troops to rebel. However, Changwen Gongzi refused to leave home on the grounds of filial piety. The kid thinks that the family is small, the country is big, and the Changwen son's move is all small and big, so the kid has this rude move, looking at Chen Gonghaihan. ”
Chen Jiao can be eloquent, and Chen Ji nodded again and again. Immediately educate Chen Qun not to mislead state affairs because of family affairs. Chen Qun could only obey his father's orders.
However, Chen Qun thought deeper.
"Brother Ji Bi, I think that Luoyang and Shouchun are mortal enemies. The reason why Taiwei Liu has not mobilized troops and horses for a long time must have his hidden worries. ”
Chen Jiao said: "I would like to listen to what Changwen Gongzi said in detail." ”
"Captain Liu has not yet mobilized troops, and all he is worried about is internal, external, and enemy."
"What is an internal matter?"
Chen Qun said: "Dong Zhuo is chaotic, and the Han family is withering. Soon after the imperial court returned to Luoyang, it was in ruins. It will take time to select officials, adjust government affairs, raise food, and train soldiers and horses. This is also an inside matter. ”
Chen Jiao nodded, and asked again: "What is foreign affairs?" ”
"Luoyang and Jizhou have just experienced a big war. General Yuan was defeated and refused to give up. Jizhou threatened, but the imperial court did not dare to easily use troops against Shouchun! ”
Chen Jiao nodded, his face worried.
Chen Qun said again: "As for the enemy, it is self-explanatory. Shouchun Yuan Shu, there are many soldiers and generals. If there is no strong reinforcement, it may be difficult to make a difference with Liu Jiangtian's own strength. ”
Chen Qun's analysis was clear and reasonable, but the more Chen Jiao listened, the more anxious he became.
According to Chen Qun's analysis, then, it is impossible for Liu Mang to use troops against Yuan Shu! Hurriedly asked: "How to deal with these three things: internal, external, and enemy?" ”
Chen Qun said: "We are not important ministers of the imperial court, so we cannot participate in the affairs of the DPRK and China. This internal matter can only be decided by Liu Jiangtian. ”
Chen Jiao said: "Chen is willing to go to Luoyang to persuade Taiwei Liu to do internal affairs and fight a strong enemy first." However, how to solve this foreign and enemy matter? ”
Chen Qun said: "To deal with a strong enemy, we must find foreign aid." A certain person was willing to rush to Yanxu Erzhou to persuade Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande to raise troops together with Luoyang to fight against the traitor Yuan Shu. However, in this foreign matter, there is no competent person, and it may be difficult to persuade General Yuan to temporarily suspend the army. ”
Chen Jiao and Yuan Shao had no friendship, and they were soft-spoken, and they were not sure to persuade Yuan Shao to temporarily let go of the hatred between him and Liu Mang. I can't help but worry......
At this time, the house slave came to report: Jizhou Cui Yan came to visit.
Chen Qun stroked his palms and laughed: "Cui Jiqi is here, and it can be done!" ”
Cui Yan Cui Jiqi, in his thirties. He has a handsome appearance, comfortable eyebrows, and a high voice. It has both the elegance of a scribe and the style of a chivalrous man.
Cui Yan was originally a disciple of the great scripture scholar Zheng Xuan.
Due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zheng Xuan went to the mountain to avoid trouble and dismissed his disciples. Cui Yan traveled in Qingxu and Yanyu states.
He also went to Shouchun, and when he saw that the people of Yuzhou were not living well, he was indignant in his heart, and he also intended to lobby Liu Mang and the surrounding princes to jointly conquer Yuan Shu.
Chen Jiao and Cui Yan stood together, which was very interesting.
Chen Jiao is thin and weak, and his image is slightly obscene. And Cui Yan is handsome and talented.
Chen Jiao is good at talking, and his mouth is like a river. Cui Yan has few words, and cherishes words like gold.
However, the purpose of the two is the same.
The three hit it off and went their separate ways.
Chen Qun first went to Yanzhou and then to Xuzhou to persuade Cao Cao and Liu Bei to send troops.
Cui Yan rushed to Jizhou to persuade Yuan Shao to put aside his personal grievances for the time being. to help the princes of all walks of life and conquer Yuan Shu.
Chen Jiao rushed to Luoyang to lobby Liu Mang.
On the way to Luoyang, Chen Jiao met Qin Qiong who rolled down the mountain.
Knowing that he was a general in the Luoyang Army, Chen Jiaocai came to his aid, and was protected by Dharma and saved Qin Qiong's life.
……
After listening to Chen Jiao's statement, Liu Mang was overjoyed.
Chen Jiao, Chen Qun and Cui Yan are all famous people in the world. Their attitude towards the two imperial courts of Luoyang and Shouchun represents the hearts of the people in the world.
Liu Mang had already made up his mind to conquer Yuan Shu.
What Liu Mang is most worried about is the strength of both the enemy and us.
Contacting the princes of the world and forming an alliance against Yuan is the key to defeating Yuan Shu in one fell swoop.
And what Liu Mang is most unsure about is whether this alliance can be formed.
Now, Chen Jiao and others took the initiative to rush to various places to persuade Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others, which greatly increased the possibility of forming an alliance against Yuan.
Liu Mang thanked Chen Jiao and gave him the Hongnong order, and temporarily served as Cao Peng in the Captain's Mansion of Si Li.
The strategy has been decided, and only Liu Bowen, Li Yan and others who are waiting to send the envoy will send back the good news.
……
But Cui Yan said goodbye to Chen Jiao and Chen Qun, and rushed to Jizhou and went straight to Yecheng.
After Yuan Shao's defeat, he was depressed and kept a low profile. Annoyed Liu Mang, in order to damage Gao Ganchun Yu Qiong and other generals, while grieving, he was also reflecting on his mistakes.
During this period of time, Yuan Shao strictly ordered all ministries to strictly guard against divisions and prefectures, but they were never allowed to move troops without authorization.
Yuan Shao didn't want to alleviate the contradiction with Liu Mang. It's because Liu Mang's strength is getting stronger, and he wants to fight several times, but it is always difficult to win. If you use swords again, it will inevitably lose your troops and hit morale.
Liu Mang's merger with the state army has become a nightmare for the Jizhou army. Yuan Shao was not sure of winning, but he didn't want to take revenge all the time.
At this time, it was reported that Cui Yan, a famous man from Jizhou, had to visit, and Yuan Shao was overjoyed.
Cui Yan's hometown is in Jizhou, and Yuan Shao thought that Cui Yan must have rushed to defect.
And Cui Yan is in line with Yuan Shao's standard for employing people: his family background is clear, and he is famous. The most rare thing is that Cui Yan gave birth to a handsome beauty that Yuan Shao likes the most!
Yuan Shao received Cui Yan politely and warmly, but he didn't expect that Cui Yan neither expressed his expression of effectiveness nor said many kind words. On the contrary, he bluntly asked Yuan Shao to put aside his mortal enmity with Liu Mang and jointly crusade against Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shao's face sank, he forcibly suppressed his anger, and said: "Ji Jue opened his mouth and closed his mouth to enmity against state affairs, but he wanted to help the enemy and conquer his own brothers. Yuan is lonely and unheard, and he only knows how to persuade people to be brothers, friends and brothers, but he has never heard of it, and he persuades people to be brothers! ”
Cui Yan persuaded again, and Yuan Shao was even more annoyed.
If you refuse to work, that's it. This Cui Yan, who doesn't know the depths, came to the general's mansion to preach with a cloth body. If it weren't for Yuan Shao's cultivation, he would have been blasted out a long time ago!
Yuan Shao didn't want to listen to Cui Yan's preaching anymore, so he brushed his sleeves and left, but Cui Yan could only leave in a huff...... (To be continued.) )
