Chapter 550: The World is Turned Upside Down, and the Chaotic Battle and Attack (42)
The two boxes of goods and the small tripod were finally collected by Lu Bu in the name of saving money for Lu Lingqi's future grandson to invite Mr.
In the first year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, at the beginning of February, the imperial court Xiaocai general, the Marquis of Wuping led Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao, officially wrote to the Son of Heaven, and asked Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Shao, the eldest son of the Marquis of Fengcheng and Jizhou, the second son Yuan Xi as the Marquis of Yecheng and the general of the Jizhou Mu Cavalry, and the third son Yuan Shang as the Marquis of Bohai to order the Jizhou Assassin History. The "imperial court" is to show Cao Cao's successful mediation of Hebei's merits, and after the decent three resignations of the Han Emperor, Cao Cao was added as the Han Sikong, entered the phase, and led the government; At the same time, Lu Bu, the hussar general who was close to Qingzhou, removed the word "special advancement" from his official position, added him to the rank of lieutenant, and was promoted to the position of general with the title of "general", and was ordered to sit in Qingzhou and take charge of the military and political affairs of Qingzhou, Xu, Yang, and Hebei. The subordinates of the two families also received rewards.
This time, the edict announced to the world, the breadth of the reward, and the weight of the officials, it was as if a boulder had been thrown in the shallow water of the Han situation that had just calmed down.
Since Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Zhang, Emperor He, Emperor Yin, Emperor An, Emperor Shun, Emperor Chong, until Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling, no one can remember how many years the Han Dynasty has not had a prime minister! In comparison, the official position of the elder brother of the old Yuan family seems a little insignificant. After all, what kind of goods Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shangge are, during the past few years, they have been clearly seen by discerning people, and the reason for Yuan Shao's violent death before is really strange. What's more, Yuan Shao's three-year mourning period has not yet passed, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi have already become a mess, but they want to let an outsider like Cao Cao mediate the internal strife of the Yuan family. It has long been criticized by many people, even if it is based on one state and officially becomes a number of feudal officials in the Han Dynasty, in the hearts of many people, it is just a stepping stone to accumulate a foundation for others, compared to Cao Cao's position, it is not a problem at all.
Cao Cao is still the pastor of Yanzhou in his political position. But before, he was already a general of Xiaocai, and he controlled Yan, Yu, Sili, Yongliang and the land of the state, and the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty had already won five of them. With more than 100,000 elite soldiers and dozens of famous generals, he has become the head of the princes in the world, and now he wants to restore the position of prime minister who has been out of office for more than 100 years. It looks like a boat is pushing down the river. It's a matter of course.
However, the Han Dynasty is far from more than 300 years ago, and there are Dong Zhuo's arrogance as the Grand Master, Li Dao and Guo Yan's two thieves each calling the generals, and other pickled things are not far away, and Cao Cao is the prime minister at this time, which is quite interesting. At least now for Youzhou Gongsun Zhan, who is eyeing Hebei and the two states, Liu Bei, who claims to be a relative of the Han family but always hates uselessness, as well as Jingxiang Liu Biao, Yizhou Liu Yan, Liu Zhang's father and son, and Xiliang, they don't want to see the prodigal son who once had the name of "Luoyang's Three Evils" after the eunuch who was only a mere lieutenant in the north of Luoyang. In just over ten years, he has gone from a small civil servant who is just a "deputy section-level treatment" to the first person in a hundred officials under the Son of Heaven. Xiliang, Ma Teng, and Han Sui are just two. Their eyes were only on the one-third of an acre of land in Yongliang, and after Dong Zhuo took advantage of the Xiliang soldiers to poison the government, the rejection of the Xiliang forces in the Central Plains congenitally restricted the possibility of the two of them developing eastward.
And for Gongsun Zhan, who once participated in the battle against Dong Zhuo as a prince all the way, it is even more intolerable that even Yuan Xi has become a pastor of Jizhou, but the imperial court has not officially recognized his position as a pastor of Youzhou, but he is so "generous" to Cao Mengde, who was short and frustrated in the past, not to mention that the two families were still quite frictional in the matter of Jizhou and Merging Prefectures before. Although in the end, in Gongsun Zhan's view, Cao Cao chose to retreat in front of his own army with a lot of "knowledge", but this does not mean that Gongsun Zhan, who was affected by Liu Bei's intentional or unintentional "prediction" in his ears all day long, Cao Cao's words that were worse than Dong Zhuo's words in the past, would have a good impression of Boss Cao.
As for Liu Biao, Liu Yan, and Liu Zhang, there is no need to say it. Although these Han clan relatives are not as ambitious as Liu Bei. But as Liu Biao, who was once one of the eight horses of Jingxiang who was closest to the position of the Son of Heaven, or because of the so-called righteousness of the Son of Heaven in Yizhou, Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, who asked for the shepherd to guard Yizhou, for Cao Cao's arrogant behavior, he did not immediately follow the royal secret agreement of Emperor Wen when he invaded the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion a hundred years ago, and played the banner of the Qing monarch to punish Cao Cao's thieves, it was already for Cao Cao's more than 100,000 elite "face".
It can be said that although Cao Cao's sudden crazy move was unanimously "approved" by the Xuchang court, the courtiers, led by Dong Cheng and Fu Wan, almost reversed the attitude of non-cooperation in the past, as if they wanted to hold Cao Cao half up to the sky. But compared to the other princes of the Han Dynasty, they immediately put themselves in front of the wrath of the public. There are Gongsun Zan in the north, Ma Teng Han Sui in the west, and a group of Han clan relatives of the old Liu family in the south.
"Is Cao Mengde crazy?! What is this going on?! He's going to go crazy and get involved with a certain family! Just when the edict of the Han Emperor spread all over the world, in Linzi City, Qingzhou Mansion, Lu Bu, who was doing restorative exercise on the training ground, was shocked to hear that his subordinates reported the matter, and suddenly put the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand into the giant wood on the sidelines, and ordered without wiping the sweat on his face: "Go quickly to pass the order, the Chinese army will gather generals!" ”
"Lord, what's wrong?" Now that the eldest girl and the second girl of the Qin family are full moon, the two little girls who are becoming more and more beautiful are even more loved by the Yan family and Diao Chan, and Lu Lingqi is even more motherly. Despite this, Qin Xu's family is now also stained with the light of two little girls, and they were almost "forced" by the Yan family to stay in Lu Bu's mansion, so after hearing about Lu Bu's anger, Qin Xu was the first to come in front of Lu Bu.
"Haven't you heard yet? The Son of Heaven was deceived by Cao Cao's house, and crowned Cao Cao as the secretary, prime minister, and the general leader of the government! Lu Bu's face was still angry, and he said to Qin Xu indignantly.
"Is it finally like this?" Qin Xu muttered to himself in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Lu Bu frowned and asked, "Something to say out loud." ”
"Nope!" Lu Bu in a rage is very easy to be injured by mistake, Qin someone, who has been by Lu Bu's side for more than four years, has a deep understanding of this, and hurriedly clarified: "Xu is saying that Cao Mengde's move is not a wise move, and he put his own forces in the opposition of the people in the world so early, is it possible to repeat the things of Dong Zhuo and Li Guo in the past?" With his 100,000 tired army of Cao Cao now, if he has to face the enemies of the Quartet, can he do this? Are all the wise men under him eating dry food? ”
"Huh! Not bad! Enemy of the world! It is indeed difficult for him Cao Mengde to deal with it alone, but what if you count our army! As soon as Qin Xu's voice fell, Lu Bu suddenly sneered, threw the edict of the Han Emperor under his command to Qin Xu, and said, "Look at it! The previous time he really underestimated him Cao Cao, I thought that his contrived posture was a marriage and a gift, and he also used Jizhou Ding to test the intentions of a certain person, but it was just to plot the land of Hebei, but he didn't want to, his real intention turned out to be so! What a calculation! ”
"Boss Cao is in such a hurry? It shouldn't be! The words released by Lu Bu and the edict of the Son of Heaven in front of him undoubtedly had a greater impact on Qin Xu than Lu Bu imagined. Since the imperial court changed to Yuan Jian'an, Qin Xu has been a little fortunate in some contradictions in his heart for quite some time. Although the wheel of history has deviated, the overall trend has not changed, that is to say, although the arrival of Qin Xu has changed the fate of many people, but relative to the whole world, some things that are bound to happen will still happen because of the inertia of history, and this shows that in fact, Qin someone can still have a certain anticipation and vigilance for the future because of his foresight of some things, which once made Qin Xu feel at ease. But now that this incident happened, Qin Xu was stunned.
"Shouldn't we!? Hum! Although Qin Xu's words were quite small, he was still heard by Lu Bu in the second half of the sentence, and immediately snorted coldly and said: "If it is just him Cao who is fighting the world with the strength of one person, it is naturally a lame strategy. But he, Cao Cao, is very calculating. His own official seal is empty, and he is the prime minister, and the general leader of the government is just that, but he still wants to involve a certain family, isn't this a pit person? What a courtship! What a salute! I'm afraid it's all a disguise! It is the right solution to make people realize that Qingzhou is related to Xuchang, no wonder he wants to send his precious eldest son here, I am afraid that as early as the beginning, he actually began to calculate! Now that this edict has not yet spread all over the world, if it were known to others, we would not be able to say it anyway. Even if he is against him, he has to stand on the same front with him in the end, facing the surging heroes of the world! ”
"Cao Cao's intentions are like this? No wonder he was so simple in Jizhou at the beginning! It's just that now that it has happened, what does the lord think? Qin Xu was also confused by Lu Bu's words. It seems that Lu Bu can't look at political affairs, but in this general trend of the world, there are still unique opinions. And because Cao Cao's actions were too fast this time, so that even the sources of information such as the shadows under his command are all over the world, and there are first-class strategists in the world such as Jia Xu, and he didn't even notice it at the first time.
"Thoughts!? Hum! He Cao Mengde has an army of 100,000 and sits on five states, is it difficult to think that a certain family is so deceitful! Lu Bu's face was iron-blue, he pursed his lips and looked in the direction of Xuchang, snorted coldly, and said lightly to himself. (To be continued......)
