Chapter 115: Yuan Shu's Death

I hope that friends who like this book, help top, collect, comment and comment, these don't need money, move your little fingers, the world will be better. Thank you, thank you!

As for Yuan Shu, he and Yuan Shao respectively rushed back to Nanyang County with their own families in Bishui Pass. also learned from Yuan Shao to issue a recruitment order, and sent people to tie Yuan Shao to prepare to recruit soldiers and horses and enter the king of Beijing Qin, in fact, it sounded good, it was for their own ambitions of the Yuan family.

But I have to say that Yuan Shu is not so lucky. The title of "Four Worlds and Three Princes" really can't help him, and the recruitment order is released, but there are few people who come to vote, and there are only Ji Ling, Yan Xiang, Yang Hong, a few talents, like Chen Lan, Lei Bo, and other second- and third-rate generals.

Originally, the Yuan family's power in the capital in Luoyang was dismantled by Chu Ixiong, and now it is at most a famous scholar clan, Yuan Shu is jealous and can't make a big deal, and he was known by the world when he was begging Dong. Those who have talent certainly hope that the lord who takes refuge is a person with strength, a good reputation, and a big background. It's a pity that when he was courting Dong, his good reputation was occupied by Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu left a bad name. Of course, Yuan Shao's recruitment was of course smoother than Yuan Shu, who had the same family background.

In other words, this Ji Ling, the word is meaningful, the historical record is unknown, the chief general under Yuan Shu's account, is good at using a three-pointed two-edged knife, brave and strategic, and has won the trust of Yuan Shu, and can fight with Guan Yu for 30 rounds without winning or losing. After Yuan Shu became the emperor, he attacked Xuzhou in seven ways, and ordered Ji Ling to save the envoy, and then Yuan Shu went north to Yuan Shao, but was blocked by Liu Bei, and died under the spear in ten rounds with Zhang Fei. In general, he is a master who wanders between first- and second-rate generals, and Yuan Shu only has such a first-rate military general as his subordinates.

There is also that Yan Xiang, the word Xuanming, is the main book of Yuan Shu, that Yan Xiang was the strategist of Yuan Shu in history, Yan Xiang is very talented, and he is also very strategic, but he does not know how to flatter Yuan Shu, every time he sees Yuan Shu out of a faint move, he admonishes hard, so that Yuan Shu hates him very much, when Yuan Shu wants to be called the emperor, other Wenchen generals dare not persuade him, only Yan Xiang persuaded him not to be called the emperor, saying that although the Han family is now small, but the people's hearts are still there, and take the example of King Wen of Zhou to persuade him, but Yuan Shu just didn't listen, so he also alienated Yan Xiang, Yan Xiangkong has nowhere to display his talent and resourcefulness, which also makes Yan Xiang not very famous in history.

As for Yang Hong, the words are thin, and Yuan Shu has a long history, it seems that he is also a little strategic, I personally think. Because the historical record is even more unknown, it is an old man with a white beard.

When it came to August, it was also others who looked at Yuan Shu pitifully, so a scribe Yuan Lian, whose name was Yaoqing, was also a bit of a great ability, and he was a Fule person in Chen County. According to historical records, he was an official in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the war was raging, and Yuan Lianliu lived in the area of the river and Huai, which was used by Yuan Shu at first, and then voted for Lu Bu. In the third year of Jian'an (198 AD), Cao Cao led his troops to exterminate LΓΌ Bu, and Yuan Jian switched to Cao Cao, worshiped the southern governor of Pei, and later served as a counselor, Lang Zhongling, etc., and was conscientious in his office, known for his courage to speak out. The military general is Yuan Yin, the younger brother of Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun, Chen Ji, Han Xian, Qiao Rui, Le Zhuo, Han Hao and other second- and third-rate generals.

The Nanyang County guarded by Yuan Shu is the ancestral grave of the Yuan family, after a hundred years of operation of the Yuan family, the foundation is solid, and next door to Nanyang is the Yuan family's nest Runan County, Yuan Shu won the support of the Yuan family. After all, this Chu Xiong wiped out many of his Yuan family, and Nanyang and Runan were the first and second largest counties in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which belonged to the rich land, and Yuan Shu's capital was still very strong. Although he couldn't recruit a general, the small soldiers quickly pulled up seventy or eighty thousand.

However, the sudden rise of Yuan Shu made Liu Biao, who was sitting in Jingzhou, restless. Liu Biao himself has only 150,000 troops, and this Yuan Shu is about to catch up with him in one county, can you not worry?

According to historical records, Liu Biao, the word Jingsheng, is a native of Gaoping, Shanyang. Descendants of King Lu Gong. He was well-known in the world when he was young, and was called "Eight Jun" with the seven wise men. He Jin was the general and served as a lieutenant in the Northern Army. The descendant Wang Rui is the history of Jingzhou Thorn, supplemented by the Kuai brothers, Cai Mao and others. He also entered the general of Zhennan, the pastor of Jingzhou, and became the Marquis of Wu. During his stay in Jingzhou, Liu Biao enwei and envy were well seduced, cleared thousands of miles, and the people were satisfied. He also opened a school, loved the people and raised scholars, and calmly protected himself. Yuan Shao, close to Zhang Xiu, Na Liu Bei, thousands of miles of base, with more than 100,000 armor, called the Jingjiang River, first killed Jiangdong Sun Jian, and then often resisted Cao Cao, is one of Cao Cao's strong enemies. However, Liu Biao is suspicious of human nature, better at sitting and talking, determined to be self-controlled, and has no ambition of the Quartet, and later spoiled his wife Cai, so that his wife Cai Mao and others gained power. After Liu Biao's death, Cai Mao and others abolished Chang Liyoung, and Liu Cong, the second son of his cousin, was the main one; Cao Cao marched south, Liu Cong surrendered to the state, and Jingzhou was lost.

When Liu Biao arrived in Jingzhou at the beginning of that year, the water bandits and bandits in the Jiangnan region were very prosperous, and they each occupied a city and a place and claimed to be the king and hegemon, which was very chaotic. Su Daimou, a native of Wudi, usurped the position of Changsha Taishou, and Bei Yu grabbed the position of Huarong County Commander, and they each recruited many soldiers from the homeless people, and defended the city according to the city, and they were a disaster in the local area.

In order to quickly quell the rebellion in various parts of Jingzhou, Liu Xian rode into Yicheng and conspired with Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers from Lu County, and Cai Mao from Xiangyang.

Kuai Liang, the word is soft, a native of Zhonglu in Nanjun, is the brother of Kuai Yue, his person is resourceful, proficient in astronomy, and extremely good at horses.

Kuai Yue, the word is different, a native of Nanjun Zhonglu, is the younger brother of Kuai Liang, his people are deep and wise, and he is brave and majestic.

Cai Mao, the word Deqi, is a native of Caizhou, Xiangyang. The son of Cai Wei, a famous family in Jingzhou, his aunt (Cai Wei's sister) is the wife of Sikong Zhang Wen, and the eldest sister is married to Huang Chengyan (Zhuge Liang's father-in-law) as the stepmother.

Liu Biao asked the three of them: "In the land of Jingzhou, the thieves are very prosperous, and the masses are not attached, and now the disaster has come to us!" I want to recruit troops and rebels here, but I am afraid they will not be able to gather, what is your best plan? ”

Kuai Liang said: "The reason why the masses are not attached is because of the lack of benevolence, and the reason why the masses are dependent and cannot govern is because of the lack of righteousness; If the way of benevolence and righteousness can be done, then the people will return like the downward trend of the water, so why worry about the inroads of those who come and ask for the strategy of raising the army? ”

Liu Biao asked Kuai Yue again, and Kuai Yue said: "Those who govern peace take benevolence and righteousness first, and those who govern chaos take power and scheming first." There are not many soldiers, but they can win their people. Su Dai and Bei Yu are both brave warriors, so there is nothing to worry about. The leaders of the thieves are mostly greedy, and their subordinates have few supporters. I have some people under my command who are usually cultivated, and if they are sent to show their benefit, the leader of the sect and thieves will definitely come with the crowd. The king will punish those who have no way, and then use them with others. In this way, the people of Jingzhou are happy to stay in this state, and when they learn that the envoy is virtuous, he will definitely help the old and the weak. Then the soldiers gathered and attached, according to Jiangling in the south, Xiangyang in the north, and the eight counties of Jingzhou can be passed on! ”

Cai Mao also said: "There are many heroes in the land of Jingxiang, and there are three people recommended to the envoy today, all of whom are rare good ministers and famous generals, who can assist the king to quell the rebellion in Jingzhou as soon as possible!" ”

When Liu Biao heard Cai Mao's words, he couldn't help but be moved, and asked urgently: "Please also ask De Jue to explain the details." ”

Cai Mao replied: "The first person, Li Yan of Nanyang County, is a small official of Nanyang County, and he has good strategies for governing politics and the army, and he is a rare talent. The second person, Nanyang Wancheng is hired by humanities, the word Zhongye, his people are good at commanding the army, governing the army in a good way, loyal and humble, and he is also a rare good general. The third person, Ma Liang, a native of Xiangyang Yicheng, is often a season. He has five brothers, all of whom are famous. There are white hairs in Ma Liang's eyebrows, and there is a proverb in the township: 'Ma's five constants, white eyebrows are the best', and Ma Liang can be said to be five people! ”

Liu Biao sighed: "Zirou's words can be described as Yongji's theory. The plan of the different degrees can be described as the strategy of the murderer. Deju's recommendation can be described as a move by Guan Zhong. So he worshiped Kuai Liang for the governance of the middle of the country, worshiped Kuai Yue for Cao Cao, worshiped Cai Mao for Hu Cao, and the veteran Wang Wei for Wei Cao.

Subsequently, Liu Biao sent Cai Mao to recruit Li Yan and Wen Ping on his behalf, and he personally went to visit the Ma family in Yicheng, where he stopped. After Cai Mao's patient persuasion, Li Yan and Wen Ping came to defect to Liu Biao, and brought a Nanyang fellow Huang Zhong with him. The Ma clan admired Liu Biao's reputation and agreed to fund and assist Liu Biao in governing Jingzhou.

Liu Biao was very happy to see Li Yan and Wen Ping, and felt that these two people were very majestic, talked decently, and could lead the army, so he worshiped Li Yan as a farewell driver in Jingzhou, worshiped Wen Ping as a soldier Cao, and the veteran Huang Zhong was also appointed.

After forming his own team, Liu Biao, with the funding of the Cai family, the Kuai family, the Ma family and other big families in Jingzhou, quickly recruited 10,000 soldiers and handed them over to the veteran Wang Wei and Wen Ping to practice day and night.

Liu Biao also asked Kuai Yue to send people to the rebellious places to lure the bandit leaders to come to Yicheng to accept officials, and the bold and reckless thieves from all over the country were covered with pork, and there were really more than 50 of them, and Huang Zhong, who was ambushed in Yicheng, led 2,000 soldiers to capture all of them, and beheaded them all in front of the people. Subsequently, Li Yan and Wen Ping immediately led 4,000 soldiers each to attack the rebel bandits and bandits, or recruit a small force willing to defect to Liu Biao.

After half a year of purging, Liu Biao's corporal was expanded from 10,000 to 20,000. The two forces of Su Dai and Bei Yu have been wiped out by Li Yan and Wen Ping, who are good at using soldiers, and only the Jiangxia thieves Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng are left to defend Xiangyang City. Liu Biao also sent Kuai Yue and Pang Ji to ride alone to say surrender, Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng were afraid of Liu Biao's 20,000 army, and under the coaxing and intimidation of Kuai Yue and Pang Ji, they bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, expressing their willingness to give up Xiangyang and serve Liu Biao.

Liu Biaobing won Xiangyang City bloodlessly, so he moved the Jingzhou administrative office to Xiangyang, and since then all parts of the south of the Yangtze River have been peaceful.

Now there is a Yuan Shu in this Nanyang County, gathering more than 100,000 people, and they keep saying that they want to fight the general Chu Xiong, the Qing monarch, this Nanyang is in charge of it by itself, without his own consent, he recruited troops without authorization, which is regarded as a rebellion, and there is also an edict from the Son of Heaven here, and it is natural to crusade against him,?? Liu Biao also deeply felt that it was not easy for him to be in politics for decades, although Liu Biao did not go to fight in all directions, but his own territory could not allow problems, and he finally got mixed with the state pastor, but he could not fall because of the traitor Yuan family.

I can't help but say that although Liu Biao is not a royalist and has no reverence for the imperial court, he especially hates those who steal his own things.
