Chapter 239: The Central Plains is in turmoil, and Qingzhou is in danger

In August of the fourth year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, as the great drought that swept the Central Plains was raging for a century, Qingzhou, which had been in a uproar before, obtained the income from Kan Xuan's plundering of Xuzhou, which caused tension between Qingzhou and Xuzhou, which attracted all the surrounding forces to covet things, because of Tao Qian's death and the joking ending of Xuzhou as the son-in-law of Qingzhou Mu Lu Bu. Tao Qian's unpredictable expression of the world and Lu Bu's unexpected response measures when he was dying really shocked the attention of people who paid attention to this matter.

And when the people of the world were paying attention to Qin Xu, an unknown person with a strong Qingzhou background and who had never heard of it before, he had been coveted by the surrounding forces of Xuzhou, and when he was waiting to see what kind of reproach Lu Bu was about to face, several major events that came one after another successfully diverted everyone's attention. It also made Qin, who was originally a little in a hurry because Tao Qian's death disrupted all the layouts of Qingzhou, while rejoicing, he was also a little more worried about the future situation that is becoming more and more difficult to understand.

Since Lu Bu's letter full of the old man's embarrassment of Qiao's son-in-law, and asked Qin Xu to deal with the pickled affairs in Xuzhou and take Lu Lingqi back to Linzi for the wedding, he sent several vague urgent letters one after another, just urging Qin Xu to immediately put down all the things in Xuzhou and hand over the state affairs to the Mi family, who was already the head of the Xuzhou family because of Tao Qian's death, together with the father and son of the Chen family who have been in charge of political affairs for a long time, and the Cao family who holds military power, and rushed back to Linzi as soon as possible.

And when Qin Xu was reprimanded by the white jade beauty Gan Qian, after the six-hundred-mile urgent letter sent by Lu Bu, who was transferred to Qin Xu by Lu Lingqi's hand, the intelligence source Shadow controlled by Jia Xu, sent Jia Xu's letter at the first time, but Qin Xu understood why Lu Bu was still in such a hurry to let Qin Xu go back when he had a natural talent like Guo Jia by his side.

Since coming to the end of the Han Dynasty, in order to get Lu Bu out of the almost doomed fate of Baimenlou's death, Qin Xu has been playing with his life at the beginning, Yuan Shao, Cao Ying, Tao Qian, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, almost all the forces that may be involved in this matter are in Qin Xu's calculations. But the problem is that although Qin called himself a "successful person" in his previous life, in the final analysis, he was only a middle-level company, and his experience in politics and military management was infinitely close to zero, and all the means and strategies were derived from the knowledge that surpassed more than 1,800 years. But as Lu Bu's fate gradually broke away from the old path in history, the sequelae of Qin Xu's indiscriminate mixing gradually appeared.

First of all, Chang'an, because Qin Xu suggested that Lu Bu rush out of Chang'an in order to change opportunities, and because he was in a hurry, Meiwu was not emptied by Lu Bu, so that the two thieves who quickly occupied Chang'an City with the intention of following the example of their original master Dong Zhuo to control the government did not embarrass the people of Chang'an too much, and because the two thieves did not dare to be as presumptuous as Dong Zhuo after all, although they were "house arrested" by the Son of Heaven in disguise and upheld the center of the Han court, they were still under the mediation of Dong Zhuo's fellow clan and uncle Dong Cheng. did not make Liu Xie, the son of heaven, too wronged. Although the two of them were inevitably suspicious of each other because of their sudden ascension to high positions, because they had not controlled the Son of Heaven and the government for a long time, they did not make a fuss because of the two of them because of their discord, one hijacked the Son of Heaven, and the other robbed the minister. Just because Ma Teng Han Sui asked for the two thieves for personal matters and was not allowed, after attacking Chang'an under the banner of rescuing the Son of Heaven, the drought that swept the world was affected even Chang'an, plus Cao Ying got Lu Bu's "help", broke through the periphery of Chang'an's blockade, defeated Yang Feng's department, got the general Xu Huang, and got the "benefit" of 30,000 stone military rations promised by Qin Xu from the previous Qingzhou incident, and mixed into this matter in advance and the offensive was fierce, and the situation in Chang'an fell into a stalemate situation of being attacked on both sides.

And at this time, Yuan Shao, who was calculated by Qin Xu, also had an unexpected situation in the battle with Gongsun Zhan. After occupying the entire territory of Youzhou before, Gongsun Chan got the help of Brother Liu with big ears, and there was a faint appearance of equal strength in the war with Yuan Shao, but because Youzhou was too anxious, and Youzhou was always in the middle of the war, and the people's hearts were unstable, so that the original Youzhou under Liu Yu was engaged in Xian Yufu two months ago, taking advantage of Gongsun Zan in the war with Yuan Shao because of the reversal of the war situation and raised the whole state troops to attack Ji and Erzhou, and wanted to succeed in one fell swoop, entanglement because of the original Youzhou pastor Liu Yu Jiu benevolent and grateful state soldiers, Elected Yan Rou, who has always been in Wuhuan and other foreign tribes, as Wuhuan Sima, borrowed Wuhuan cavalry to form tens of thousands of Hu-Han coalition army, and promoted Liu Yu's son Liu He, who took refuge in Yuan Shao in Jizhou, to lead Youzhou Mu, and combined with Yuan Shao's general Yan Zhangjaw to lead 30,000 Jizhou elite soldiers, a total of nearly 100,000 people, in the tenth month, they successively broke through Jicheng, Yuyang and other places, forcing Youzhou Dai County and Guangyang County to rebel against Gongsun on the spot. I am afraid that Yi Jing, who is based on Gongsun Zhan's headquarters, will not be able to escape the worry of the soldiers coming to the city. And at this time, I don't know what kind of nerves Gongsun Zhan, who has been hit by the ups and downs of the war, is not sure who he has listened to, and handed over the military and political affairs of Youzhou to Daer Liu, who has made great contributions in resisting the tripartite coalition army, and Liu Bei is not driving for Youzhou, two years ahead of history in the headquarters of Yijing, digging ten trenches around Yijing, building a city in it, and ordering Baima Yicong to be stationed outside, with iron as the door, far away guests, ignoring political affairs, and having no cronies, in addition to paying Liu Bei to deal with military food, Storing millions of stones of grain in Youzhou, he actually locked himself up, making Liu Bei the de facto lord of Youzhou, with the help of Gongsun Jiuchen and two righteous brothers, as well as the new general Zhao Yunzhi, occupying half of Youzhou, and barely sticking with the tripartite coalition army.

And Yuan Shao, who reversed the victory and defeat in the war with Youzhou, turned his attention to the matter of Chang'an after he had time to spare. It is said that Yuan Shao, who already has a criminal record, has the leisure to get involved in this matter again, and it is inseparable from Qin Xu. Originally, in history, because of the factional rivalry of the strategists under his command, Yuan Shao, who was scheming, was indiscriminate, because the four major strategists of Jizhou were robbed and frightened by Qin Xu, leaving only the scheming Tian Feng and the person in charge of Jizhou, who was frustrated, and there was a lot less opposition in the use of tactics, and the army was faintly much stronger than the same period in history.

Lu Bu urgently recruited Qin Xu to return to Linzi this time, because the shadow under Jia Xu got the news of Jizhou, and Yan Fu had already taken advantage of the drought in the Central Plains and the fatigue of the princes, and said that Yuan Shao took the opportunity to send troops to Hanoi to occupy Luoyang, and took advantage of the prestige of Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance when the princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo the year before last, and issued an order to gather the world's heroes and a large number of troops, and when the war in Chang'an was scorching, he would grab the limelight of his ally Cao Ying again, and welcome the Han Emperor back to Luoyang. And the text has been transmitted to Qingzhou by Yuan Shao's envoy who was in Linzi at this moment, forcing Lu Bu to express his position.

Lu Bu was the antagonist of the previous alliance of princes, but he was quite moved by Yuan Shao's "good intentions" this time, first, the matter of Chang'an before he came was indeed a heart disease in Lu Bu's heart, and if he could make the world's heroes officially accept Lu Bu as one of the princes of the late Han Dynasty on the basis of righteousness, it would confirm the fact that Lu Bu's army forces had actually occupied Qingxu Erzhou, and it was also a matter of killing two birds with one stone. But when Lu Bu said this, whether it was Guo Jia, who was the mastermind of Lu Bu's army, or Sima Zanghong of Qingzhou, they all expressed their opposition to this, believing that the reason why Qingzhou was jealous of the surrounding forces before, but did not dare to raise troops and use force, was because of Lu Buzhi's special attitude towards Chang'an. Before LĂź Bu ran out of Chang'an, he was "assisting" the Han Emperor with Situ Wang Yun Yiwu Yiwen at that time, and the excuse of being forced to run out at that time, including in the rhetoric with Cao Ying on the matter of Chang'an, was also to occupy the righteousness, saying that at this time when the situation was unclear, he would leave a strange army for the Han Emperor to prepare for changes. But if he agreed to Yuan Shao's "invitation", not to mention that Yuan Shao had a previous conviction of wanting to set up another son of heaven before, it is not easy to explain Cao Ying alone, after all, Lao Cao has long been laying out this matter, and he is about to succeed, but he was picked a peach by his ally halfway, which is equivalent to slapping himself in the face, not to mention, not only offended Yanzhou Cao Ying, who had a delicate relationship with Qingzhou, but also handed over the righteousness that had been occupied to others, although he could take the opportunity to wash away his previous bad reputation on the bright side, and be recognized by the princes who were friendly with Yuan. But in the long run, Qingzhou, which has lost its neutral status, is likely to be the first to be the first to be attacked by Yuan Shao, who has already offended and died, if the Yuan family gets the name of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes" in the future.

The matter is urgent, whether it is worried about the present that can be greatly benefited, or whether it is worried about the future or with great hidden dangers, whether to choose to offend Yuan Shao or Cao Ying, or whether the two families surnamed Suo ignore no one, still maintaining detachment and neutrality, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. At present, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's envoys are all in Linzi, urging Qingzhou to express his position, Lu Bu is also a little uncertain this time, and at the moment of the big event, there is no longer the mind to embarrass Qiao for his baby son-in-law, so he can only urgently call so far, it seems that no one can stand out from the right eye, and it is inextricably related to this matter, Qin Xu, who is far away in Xuzhou and "thought about it behind closed doors", hurriedly turned back to Linzi to deal with this matter, and see if Qin can have a way to solve the crisis related to the future of Lu Bujun.

"Liu Bei actually won Youzhou, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying are competing for Chang'an, Yuan Shu's intentions are unclear, Sun Ce is going to gain power again, I'm afraid the world will be even more chaotic from now on!" Qin Xu, who learned the reason, couldn't even wait for Lu Lingqi to accompany him, so he hurriedly arranged for the surname Cao and Tai Shici to slowly withdraw their troops in the confrontation with Yuan Shu, guard Xiapi, and under the escort of Dian Wei, galloped back to Linzi.
