(It's almost my birthday, please bless me; Thank you to the book friend "cerryleeon" for his birthday wishes, and thank the book friend "Cloud Fantasy" for a reward of 200 coins! ~)
Xiliang is unpredictable, and Ma Teng changed from an advantage to a disadvantage in an instant, in which Lu Bu's shot played a great role, and the alliance between Yan Xing and Lu Bu, or Yan Xing's throw at Lu Bu, thought about it carefully, although it was unexpected, it was not unreasonable.
From the initial alliance of the two forces to the parting of ways, the breakup, and then a short period of cooperation, but in the end it was still endless.
As the saying goes, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Han Sui and Ma Teng have the same ambition to dominate Xiliang, but their background is limited, and they can't compete with Ma Teng, Yan Xing, as Han Sui's son-in-law, doesn't want to accompany him to the road to destruction, and he expects that there will be no good results if he throws himself at Ma Teng, and there is only one good way out for Lu Bu in the left near, so it is not unusual for Lu Bu to finally get together.
But this Han Sui became a stumbling block in front of him at this time.
At the juncture of life and death, the ugly side of human nature is infinitely magnified, and Yan Xing does not have a deep affection for Han Sui's son-in-law, and he has always been just a person who has to bow his head under the eaves, and even for Han Sui's intention to show Ma Yi's weakness, he has to endure the pride of the general, and he has worked hard for many years, and the name of the first fierce general of Xiliang who has been fought down is handed over to Ma Chao - of course, with the strength of his peak, compared to Ma Chao, who is on the rise, he can only have a slight upper hand, if he waits until the peak of Ma Chao arrives, he will definitely be far better than him, But that is only in the future, and this world is the same name as both literati and military generals. This kind of reciprocal reciprocal is tantamount to cutting a piece of meat from him, so from then on, the family affection that was just indifferent was immediately transformed into resentment, and then there was the military and political power that refused to give way to him, the only son-in-law, and the marriage with Han Fu's daughter was not comfortable because of the host's fence, this kind of accumulation has been accumulated, and now it is reasonable to do this kind of behavior, although it will be reprehensible.
But if Yan Xing's move can still be said to be reasonable, then on the other hand, the news from Luoyang made Cao Cao a little unsure of what to say.
Originally, I heard that the chaos in Xiliang was gradually stabilizing, and I was afraid that I would not be able to cause any more trouble for Lu Bu, and even from now on, Liangzhou would probably be included in Lu Bu's rule. For the actions of the royalists in Luoyang, Cao Cao paid more attention to it. He hoped that these people would be able to keep making trouble, so that Lu Bu would never be able to establish a stable rear, and he would naturally be uninterested in the Hebei war situation, that is, people would be here. I will not dare to act rashly again.
It's unexpected. Although the undercurrent is surging. Everyone knows that there are a large number of royalists who are secretly dissatisfied with Lu Bu, especially the three princes of Fu, Dong, and Song, who have repeatedly asked to see His Majesty, and they all thought that Lu Bu had done it at first. This kind of dissatisfaction is growing bigger and bigger, and once it erupts, it will be a terrifying momentum, but Cao Cao has waited for so long, but he has not seen these undercurrents surging to the surface, as if although Lu Bu has left Luoyang, his residual power is still suppressing this place.
Of course, this is impossible, whether it is Dong Zhuo before or Lu Bu now, if you want to obtain real supreme authority in the land of Luoyang, at least make all your ministers submit, it is not realistic, not to mention their origins, etc., just say that there is also a young son of heaven there, if they are too respectful and low-profile, they will be uncomfortable in their hearts, but if they are too domineering, they will lose people's hearts, and it is not easy to find a balance in this, Even at this time, Lu Bu has been in obscurity and low-key behavior in the past few months, but he still can't do it.
But at least there is one thing he has done very well, that is, in the blockade of the news, so far let alone Cao Cao outside, that is, the three princes who have asked to see several times have no evidence to prove that he did it except for suspicion, and even after Dong Zhao heard his daughter's strange voice outside his daughter's palace and Fu Wan, he directly thought that this was the young son of heaven enjoying the joy of fish and water with his daughter Dong Guiren.
Although this is also a fact, firstly, Lu Bu is no longer in the palace at this time, and if he wants to do this kind of thing, he can't do it if he is not a grandson monkey, and secondly, at present, he has no idea or interest in other palace concubines except Fu Shou for the time being, but although the little emperor Liu Xie was controlled by Lu Bu with drugs, he still has his own consciousness when he should be sober, and he owes a second look at Fu Shou who has been "defiled" by Lu Bu, and he can only be depressed in his heart all day long. Mrs. Song vented on these bodies.
But when Dong Zhao went back to discuss with Fu Wan and the others, what he deduced was that after losing the pressure of Dong Zhuo before, and getting such a big help from Lu Bu, he began to indulge in wine, and refused to meet them a few times before, just because he didn't dare to see them again after being eroded by wine.
So at this time, these royalists in Luoyang were thinking about how to meet Liu Xie and persuade him to "change his mind", where could they still have time to care about Lu Bu?
Since the external factors can't be counted on, and Lu Bu can't change it even if he blocks the road, then Cao Cao can only carefully manage his own one-third of an acre of land on the one hand, extend a little more to Qingzhou in the north from time to time, and wait and see the changes in the situation in Jizhou on the other hand.
……
South of Julu County, Guangnian County.
This place is close to the northern border of Wei County, and Julu is already bordered by Wei County from north to south, so Guangnian is located in a zone where the forces of Yuan Shao and Han Fu are transferred.
In the past few days, both sides have been constantly sending troops here, camping and stalemate, but they tacitly took a flat land outside Guangnian City as the dividing line, and ignored each other.
Of course, this is only temporary, otherwise the armies of both sides are gathered here, is it here to play home?
It's just that this time it's just Yuan Shao, who is passively facing the battle, and Han Fu, who was in a position of breaking the cauldron at the beginning, didn't even make any rash moves, which is really incomprehensible.
Yuan Shao was also quite depressed during this time, but he was not for the Han Fu army in front of him, although the Han army showed the momentum of breaking the cauldron, but as time passed, there was no substantive move, and Yuan Shao no longer cared about them; As for Han Fu's move, it is incomprehensible, why should he think so much when he has an absolute advantage.
A large part of the reason why he is so depressed now is that he heard that Gongsun Du of Liaodong, a guy who is always a bystander, is now also thinking about the large "borderless land" after the death of Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, and everything that should have been collected by him was because of Han Fu's sudden deployment of troops, which disrupted his deployment.
You must know that his original plan was actually to solve Han Fu first, after all, although the territory he occupies can be called the first among the three heroes in Hebei, but there has never been a complete county in his hands, he hopes to be able to completely connect his own forces, so naturally he has to take Han Fu on the side of the couch first, not to mention that in comparison, whether it is to accept the grievances of the traitor of Liyi, or to be slightly stronger than the current Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao, who advocates the difficulty first and then the easy, will first target Han Fu.
But at this time, he received the news that Han Fu asked Gongsun Chan for help Gongsun Chan sent reinforcements to prepare to enter Jizhou and join forces with Han Fu to resist Yuan's army, and that's it, he even found out the marching route that Gongsun Chan had to pass, and Gongsun Chan himself and Han Fu must have been defenseless.
Faced with such a good opportunity, Yuan Shao was of course reluctant to give up, so he immediately changed his mind and pulled the main team to the border between Jizhou and Youzhou, and then waited for Gongsun Zan to throw himself into the net.
It's no wonder that Gongsun Chan may be destined to be here, originally there was a subordinate who had followed Gongsun Chan for a long time in a nearby county, but because Gongsun Chan wantonly allowed Gongsun Zhan's family to ignore some henchmen of the opposite sex, causing him to be dissatisfied and have a different heart, Yuan Shao immediately ordered someone to get in touch with him after learning about it.
Of course, it is true that this person has different intentions, but if he thinks that this is the case, Yuan Shao will stretch out an olive branch, and the other party must take it, which inevitably thinks that this world is too simple and beautiful, but in fact, this person's resentment still lies in the fact that he thinks that his own interests are divided by the Gongsun family, and the fundamental thing he wants is interests.
Yuan Shao can naturally give him benefits, but he can't give it for nothing, right? If you want to get benefits, you can surrender to sincerity, and you have to show sincerity, and this sincerity naturally lies in Gongsun Zhan.
In fact, the army under Gongsun Chan was not so vulnerable, especially Bai Ma Yi has always come and gone like the wind, if he really wants to run, even if he is surrounded by heavy surrounds, it is difficult to stop their charge and speed, but the problem is that on the eve of their rest in this county, this interested guy accepted Yuan Shao's request, and secretly sent someone to take the opportunity to mix some medicine into the horse food in Gongsun Zhan's army, which is not fatal, but it can make the horse's ability to move sluggish, mainly because the motor nerve is paralyzed.
In this case, these war horses were fine at first, and when the march reached a certain distance, they began to have signs, but at that time, Gongsun Chan and they thought so much, and when they planned to stop and rest first, they encountered an ambush by Yuan Jun.
If they hadn't eaten the wrong grain and grass, their horses wouldn't have been able to run, so how could they have been wiped out here?
After destroying Gongsun Zhan's team, the elite strength of Gongsun Zhan's forces was greatly damaged, and secondly, Gongsun Zhan died, and his forces were leaderless, with his straw bag brothers and sons who could not sit in the overall situation at all, it was logical for Yuan Jun to take advantage of the situation to gather the rest of the troops and occupy its territory.
At this time, Han Fu preemptively declared war on Yuan Shao, most of the people were not at ease outside, and Han Fu would really rush over like this, and Yuan Shao himself would be in danger at that time, so he didn't dare to take the risk lightly, so he withdrew all the troops outside, and gathered outside this Guangnian City to confront the Han army.
It's just that the cooked duck that was originally in his hands is now coveted by others, and he can't do anything about it for the time being, Yuan Shao is so depressed these days. (To be continued......)
