Although Frustration and a small number of Jizhou officials also tried their best to intercede for Tian Feng, but the dissatisfaction of the Great Yuan Sangong with Tian Feng was not a day or two, coupled with the fact that Yuan Shanggongzi and his party fanned the flames in order to bring down the stumbling block, Yuan Tan Gongzi's party was afraid that the Great Yuan Sangong would investigate deeply and take revenge for self-preservation, and the poor generation of famous ministers Tian Toyoda Yuanhao was finally framed by Yuan Shao's father and son, countless Jizhou colleagues with evil intentions and our Yang Changshi, and ended his life by a glass of wine - this is also the result of Yuan Sangong's mercy. left Tian Feng with a whole corpse.

Except for a very small number of high-level officials in Jizhou and a few parties, no one knows what kind of shocking secret is hidden in Yang Changshi's belt, and even Yuan Tan Gongzi and Yuan Tan Gongzi's sworn friends don't know what kind of secret is hidden in that belt, which can make the furious Yuan Sangong suddenly ecstatic like that?

Da Yuan Sangong is not Alzheimer's yet, and his mind is still very clear, of course, he doesn't dare to let his eldest son, who has always been very close to Cao Lao, know the inside story, and the leakage has caused him to fall into a predicament that he is still unable to fight on two fronts, and even more harm countless internal responses and strong reinforcements that can be used - Ma Teng's Xiliang Iron Cavalry has made Da Yuan Sangong covet the world's strong soldiers for many years, so the secret hidden in that belt has also become a huge mystery in the hearts of most Jizhou civil and military personnel.

Of course, the biggest culprit Yang Changshi is not so easy to get out, at least the blood edict of Emperor Han Xian in the belt has to spend a lot of words to explain, but fortunately, all the parties involved in this blood edict are not in Jizhou, and the young Ah Yi who escorted this blood edict to Jizhou can neither appear in public, nor can he betray Yang Changshi, our Yang Changshi naturally can say whatever he wants, and he can talk as much as he wants, and he doesn't have to worry about exposing his stuffing.

No matter how nonsense you talk about, you don't have to worry about being exposed, such a good opportunity, of course, our Yang Changshi has to desperately put gold on his face, and the reason why the blood edict of Emperor Han Xian is in his own hands is because the Son of Heaven and Uncle Dong feel that Yang Changshi is a rare loyal and capable minister in the world, a humble gentleman with unparalleled loyalty! Therefore, Uncle Dong Guo specially sent someone to hand over this blood edict to Yang Changshi, asking Yang Changshi to sign and draw a pledge on the blood edict, and make a blood alliance with Uncle Dong Guo, Ma Taishou and Wang Zifu and others, and join hands to fight against Cao thief! And asked Yang Changshi to find the next hero of the world, the hero of the world, the pillar of the country, to present the blood edict to him, ask him to raise his arms and shout, and lead the world's heroes to fight against Cao Ying, who bullied the monarch and ruined the dynasty! Save the people from fire and water, support the community in the general, return the great government to the Son of Heaven, and make meritorious contributions to the world............ As for why Yang Changshi did not immediately dedicate the blood edict to Yuan Sangong or Deputy Director Tao, it is better explained to Yang Changshi, and it was not handed over to Deputy Director Tao because Yang Changshi received the blood edict when he was on his mission to Jizhou, and the person who sent the edict was still because he could not trust the person of Deputy Director Tao, so he chased the loyal ministers to Jizhou and handed over the blood edict to Yang Changshi. did not immediately dedicate it to the Great Yuan Sangong, because the war in Yijing was not over, and he was considerate for fear of mistaking the major event of the Great Yuan Sangong annihilating Gongsun Zhan's rebels, and then there was no consent from Deputy Director Tao, so Yang Changshi planned to wait for Deputy Director Tao to talk about it, and then there was a later matter.

Of course, Da Yuan Sangong will not fully believe Yang Changshi's nonsense, and Yang Changshi's cheeky boasting is impossible to deceive first-class strategists such as Xun Chen and Xian Pei, but Da Yuan Sangong and Xun Chen and others have no intention of delving into it, first, it is meaningless to delve into the details, and it is useless to find out the origin of the blood edict for Da Yuan Sangong, and second, several top strategists under the command of Da Yuan Sangong suddenly discovered that this blood edict and this righteous statement are actually a good opportunity to force Deputy Director Tao to stand in line, It can completely force the powerful Xuzhou army to the opposite side of Cao Laoda, so that the two strongest neighbors on the southern line of the Jizhou army cannot unite and work together to pose a threat to the Great Yuan Sangong.

"My lord, your majesty thinks that you should copy a copy of the blood edict, together with the original copy of the righteous petition of the names and paintings of your lords, and send an envoy to Xuzhou to order Tao Ying to sign and draw a pledge, and swear to fight against the thief."

This is the bad idea of Xun Chen, the confidant of the Great Yuan Sangong, and then Xun Chen explained the intention of this bad idea to the Great Yuan Sangong and said: "Tao Ying has always prided himself on his loyalty, and he withdrew from Yanzhou without authorization and made friends with Cao Thief before, and it was also an excuse to be loyal to the front of filial piety, and blocked the lord's mouth on the grounds that the edict of the Son of Heaven must not be disobeyed. ”

"Today, the blood edict is in the hands of the lord, and the lord ordered Tao Ying to sign the name of the book, and swore to fight against Cao thief, if Tao Ying does not obey, he will be disloyal and unfilial, and the people's hearts will be lost, and he will be scolded by thousands of people, and Shilin will abandon him; If Tao Ying is from, then the righteous state can be Tao Ying's handle, the lord can make Tao Ying and Cao thieves attack each other, and the retreat can make Tao Cao unable to work together, and when the lord looks south of Xuchang, Tao Ying and Cao thieves can not work together to fight against the lord. ”

"Wonderful! That's a great plan! The third prince of Da Yuan applauded and asked, "Who should be sent?" ”

"If the lord does not give up, Chen wants to recommend his nephew Xun to pray as an envoy." Xun Chen arched his hand and said: "Xun Qi is the eldest son of Xun Qu, a cousin of the minister, the word Boqi, a small and famous person in the Confucian forest, and knows the righteousness of the monarch and the minister. ”

The illustrious reputation of the old Xun family in the late Han Dynasty naturally does not need to be mentioned, and by the way, pulling a child out of the clan is the object of the princes' competition - even if it is not used, it can be used as a political vase, so the third prince of the great Yuan did not even blink his eyelids, and immediately agreed to send Xun Chen's nephew Xun Qi as an envoy, and also made a favor to Xun Qi to be engaged in the official position of Zhonglang, Xun Chen was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked the third prince of the great Yuan on behalf of his cousin. Then Xun Chen suggested sending Xun Qi and Yang Changshi back to Xuzhou together, meeting with Deputy Director Tao under the pretext of answering the gift, and taking the opportunity to ask Deputy Director Tao to sign the righteous petition, and Yuan Sangong also gladly accepted this suggestion.

In this way, of course, it is bitter that we have been suffering Yang Changshi, a heartthrob in Jizhou for a long time, and repeatedly hinted that he was willing to stay in Jizhou to be a cow and a horse for Da Yuan Sangong, but he finally received a reply from Da Yuan Sangong who sent Zhonglang Xun Qi to return to Xuzhou with him, and our Yang Changshi suddenly had a feeling of being struck by lightning. But there is no way, the eldest Yuan Sangong has never been interested in the infamous Yang Changshi, although Yuan Shanggongzi has some appreciation for Yang Changshi, but because of the instigation of the trial and Feng Ji, he does not want to have a discord with his brother-in-law with strong foreign aid, and also refuses Yang Changshi's request to stay in Jizhou as an official, so our Yang Changshi has no choice but to say goodbye to Jizhou Heaven with a handful of snot and tears, and go back to Xuzhou Hell to continue to suffer and suffer.

Fortunately, Yuan Shanggongzi is a very generous person, and agreed to another request of Yang Changshi, and gave the slave Guo Yu, that is, the girl Ah Yi, to our Yang Changshi, and the elder brother, younger brother and sister of the girl Ah Yi also followed the chicken dog to heaven, and was able to return to Xuzhou with Yang Changshi to enjoy a relatively comfortable life. At the same time, in order to take revenge on Yuan Shanggongzi's blind eye, Yang Changshi also deliberately did not expose the identity of the beautiful spy Xu Xue, and let Xu Xue continue to stay in Yuan Shanggongzi's mansion as a filibuster, and harm Yuan Shanggongzi, who is still kept in the dark.

There are many major events that happened during this period, first of all, of course, the third prince of Yuan accepted Boss Cao's request for peace, temporarily stabilized Boss Cao and took the opportunity to personally conquer Yijing, leaving the trial and command of the southern line, leading Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's two sons to the north to supervise the battle in Yijing, and the second son Yuan Xi took over the post of governor of Qingzhou; Then during the expedition to Nanyang, the remnants of Dong Boss Zhang Ji died in the middle of the battlefield in the city, and the rest retreated to Yin County under the leadership of Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu, and our Uncle Liu Huang lost Jianyang early and retreated to Xinye, and the military advisor Xu Shu was forced away by Cao Boss with a fake book, and almost all the central and northern parts of Nanyang were captured by Cao Boss.

By the way, our Boss Cao is not a good thing, when poor Mr. Xu Shu cried and cried with the fake letter of the old lady to Boss Cao to ask for death, after Boss Cao picked up Xu Shu, the first thing he did was to smile and tell Xu Shu that he had not actually persecuted Xu Shu's mother, and using a fake book to trick Xu Shu into Cao Ying was also an ally Deputy Director Tao's idea to Boss Cao - to take revenge on Uncle Liu Huang, Boss Cao's sworn enemy. As a result, Xu Shu naturally hated Deputy Director Tao to the bone marrow............ In addition, there is also a very important event for Deputy Director Tao personally, it is really flowers inserted in cow dung, gentle and virtuous can definitely be regarded as a good wife Yuan Fang, the typical wife of Deputy Director Tao, gave birth, and gave birth to the eldest son of Deputy Director Tao very competitively, completely crushing the only hope of many Deputy Director Tao's partial houses, and then when the news spread again, not only Deputy Director Tao himself was ecstatic, but Yuan Sangong and his wife and Yuan Shang Gongzi were also smiling from ear to ear, Yuan Tan Gongzi lifted the case on the spot, scolding the sky for having no eyes, How can the relationship between Yuan Shang and Tao Ying, two sworn enemies, become more and more intimate? Is the alliance more and more unbreakable?

At the beginning of March, Deputy Director Tao led the army back to Pengcheng from Huainan, first went to visit the gentle wife and baby son, the buttocks were not yet hot, Yang Changshi led Xun Qi to visit, did not dare to leave behind the infamy of the family Deputy Director Tao hurriedly led a few absolute cronies to receive a grand reception, Xun Qi took the opportunity to show the copy of Emperor Han Xian, as well as Dong Cheng's head, and there was a letter signed by the third prince of the Great Yuan to discuss Cao Yi, agitating the tongue of the spring to Deputy Director Tao to Xiao Yijun and the righteousness, asking Deputy Director Tao to sign the righteous letter and swear to fight against Cao thief. And our deputy director Tao did not hesitate, and immediately ordered: "Yuan Fang, bring pen and ink." ”

Chen Ying sang a promise, and immediately took the pen and ink, and when Deputy Director Tao was about to sign his name on the righteous letter, Liu Ye coughed on the side and reminded: "Lord, this is a matter of heaven, do you want to make a decision after a little discussion?" ”

"No need to negotiate." Deputy Director Tao, who has always been able to listen to Zeming, was unusual, first shook his head and rejected Liu Ye's hint, and then said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "Cao thief seized power, bullied the monarch's father, the blood edict of the Son of Heaven ordered the courtiers of the Han family to raise troops to fight the thief, Tao Yingshi ate Hanlu, how can there be a reason to hesitate?" ”

After finishing speaking, Deputy Director Tao did not hesitate to draw his name crookedly on the righteous form, and then returned it to Xun Qi with both hands, and said solemnly: "Please ask Mr. Boqi to return to Lord Yuezhang, once Lord Yuezhang sends troops, he should immediately lead the troops of Xuzhou to go north and respond to Lord Yuezhang." ”

Xun Qi, who said that he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, was overjoyed, and quickly agreed and praised Deputy Director Tao for his loyalty and righteousness, which was a model for loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, Deputy Director Tao smiled and was modest, and set up a banquet to entertain Xun Qi, and led everyone to personally send Xun Qi out of the house, and sent Yang Changshi to personally send Xun Qi back to the museum. However, when we returned to the meeting hall, the smile on the face of Deputy Director Tao, who turned our faces faster than a book, suddenly disappeared, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "This Yang Zhongming is simply a waste, he actually gave Yuan Shao the edict to get it, this time we are passive!" ”

"My lord, forgive me, Mr. Zhong Ming has already introduced the matter to Xu, and Mr. Zhong Ming was also forced to do so at that time, if he didn't hand over the blood edict of the Son of Heaven to Yuan Shao, there would be no way for the matter to end." Jia Lao Poison still has a bit of conscience, first explained a sentence for the benefactor Yang Changshi, and then asked suspiciously: "Lord, since you know that you are in passivity, then Mr. Ziyang hinted at reminding you, why do you still sign your name on the righteous letter on the spot?" ”

"If you don't sign it, you can't do it." Deputy Director Tao said with a sad face: "If I don't sign the righteous petition, then I will be a rebel and thief who colluded with Cao Thief to oppress the Son of Heaven, and was an accomplice to Cao Thief's lackey!" Anyway, I have to sign it, so it's better to sign it on the spot. ”

"What the lord said is extremely true, since this moral certificate has been sent to the front, if the lord does not sign it, he is indeed very morally passive." Jia Lao Poison nodded, and said: "But in this way, when our army turns against the Cao army, and when it starts a war with the Cao army, it cannot be controlled by us." ”

"It's okay, as long as you don't start a war with Yuan Shao immediately." Deputy Director Tao waved his hand and snorted: "Uncle Yue wants to use a righteous letter to control the time of the war between me and Cao Thief, and wants me and Cao Thief to be unable to work together because of this righteous certificate, so I underestimate me and Cao Thief, I bet that even if Cao Thief knows that I signed the righteous letter, he will definitely pretend not to know!" ”

"Cao Thief is not so stupid, he is already very difficult to fight against my father-in-law alone, and if he provokes me again, his Cao Thief's whole family can buy a coffin to prepare for the future!"

Jia Lao Poison nodded again, and agreed with Deputy Director Tao's judgment of Boss Cao - with Boss Cao's calmness, wisdom and foresight, it is indeed unlikely that he will provoke Deputy Director Tao again, a poisonous snake that bites people to death and does not pay for his life, or the most poisonous five-step snake. After nodding, Jia Lao Poison reminded again: "Lord, no matter whether our army joins Yuan to destroy Cao in the future, or joins Cao to fight against Yuan, we must now start preparing for the battle on the Northern Front." ”

"Yuan Shao has personally led the army north to attack Yijing, and there is our thunderbolt to help, Gongsun Chan will never be able to support for a long time, after Gongsun Chan was destroyed, Yuan Shao's main force leaned south, our army and Cao's army bear the brunt, if our army is not well prepared, it will inevitably suffer, and I hope that the lord will start hoarding grain and grass on the northern front, reorganize armaments, prepare sufficient ordnance, and take precautions to meet the battle on the northern front."

"What Mr. Wenhe said is very true, you have to start getting ready." Deputy Director Tao nodded, then turned to Chen Deng and ordered: "Yuanlong, tomorrow we will sort out the situation of our warehouses of grain, armament and baggage, and we will discuss the preparation of the northern front together." ”

Logistics expert Chen Deng smiled and sang a promise, but Liu Ye had a different opinion and raised an objection: "My lord, it's too early to concentrate the main manpower and material resources on the northern line now, right?" Yuan Shao's personal expedition to Yijing, Gongsun Zhan is indeed about to be destroyed, but Yuan Shao's army has been rising for many years, the people's livelihood in the territory has withered, there is no accumulation, the soldiers are exhausted, and the people in the newly occupied land are undecided, and it takes time to gain a firm foothold, I am afraid that the southern front war will not be launched immediately, if our army invests financial and material resources in the northern front to prepare for the war early, it will definitely affect the reconstruction of Huainan, as well as the formation plan of our army's naval division. ”

"Mr. Ziyang's words are reasonable, but it's better to be careful." Deputy Director Tao said very cautiously: "My father-in-law's temper is as unpredictable as the face of a three-year-old child, crying when he cries, laughing when he laughs, and like the rainy season in May and June, when he says it is sunny, when he says it rains, he forcibly launches a war on the southern front regardless of the people's livelihood and military conditions, and my father-in-law can definitely do such a thing." If we don't prepare for a rainy day, we may not be able to dig a well when we are thirsty. ”

Liu Ye closed his mouth, and then he had an idea, and hurriedly said again: "My lord, since you believe that Yuan Shao's surname is elusive, and it is very likely that he will forcibly launch a war on the southern front regardless of the lack of armaments, then why don't we try our best to promote this?" Let Yuan Shao immediately launch the war on the southern front after ending the Yijing war? In this way, will our army take advantage of the chaos and turmoil by being prepared for the enemy, preparing for the exhaustion of the battle, and maintaining stability in a strict manner? ”

Deputy Director Tao was stunned, and then quickly turned his head to look at the two lackeys of Jia Lao Poison and Chen Deng, but saw that Jia Lao Poison and Chen Deng were both happy, obviously reminded by Liu Ye's words, and suddenly thought of this way to further weaken the Great Yuan Sangong. Then, Deputy Director Tao, who didn't have anything good except bad water, quickly calculated in his head, "What do you want to do?" Can I let my old father-in-law's head get into the water, and after the fight, I will immediately go to beat the thief? Or, is there any way for Cao Thief to take the initiative to take advantage of the fire to rob and send troops to attack the now extremely empty southern line of Jizhou, completely angering my bad-tempered old man? ”

By the way, Deputy Director Tao's calculations this time are really helpless, and now the nail households on the southern line of Xuzhou have been forced by Deputy Director Tao to cross the Yangtze River to build shacks, and they can't cross the Yangtze River without a strong sailor, so they can't demolish these broken shacks; The east is the sea, the central and northern parts of the west are blocked by Cao Laoda, and although Liu Shoumen in the southwest is easier to demolish, the road is too far away and the Dabie Mountain Range is blocked, and the Xuzhou demolition team, which is difficult to guarantee logistics, is simply beyond the reach of the whip; Yuan Sangong and Cao Boss of the Northern Line are notoriously tough and difficult nail households, they have connections and backers, and they are extremely good at violently resisting the law, and the Xuzhou demolition team can't afford to provoke them, so they simply want to engage in demolition and have no object.

So there is no way, in order to demolish the ultimate dream of the world, in order to open the road to demolition, and in order to weaken the two most difficult and stubborn nail households, our deputy director Tao can only be selfless and selfless, iron-faced and ruthless, and began to think about starting with the old man's house.
