Emperor Deren, the founder of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was Yuan Shao. On the fifth day after his accession to the throne, he died.

Therefore, Yuan Shaoyong broke the historical record of the reign of the ninth emperor of the Han Dynasty, which was maintained by Liu He, the grandson of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. At that time, Liu He was deposed after being the emperor for 27 days.

Fortunately, Yuan Shao was not abolished, he died by himself, and he saved a little face.

However, Yuan Shao did not set up an heir, which came from the initiative of the three brothers to compete for the throne. Yuan Shao didn't have time to decide who would inherit, so he was joined forces by his three sons and died of anger.

However, if you think about this matter carefully, it will also be beneficial to the three sons, after all, there is no heir, and everyone has a chance.

So, Yuan Shang, who has been in Yecheng all the year round, occupied the advantage of the home field, took the lead, drove away Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi by force, and ascended the throne as emperor in the palace.

And Yuan Tan also took it as a priority, and even thought of going to Yuan Shao's enthronement to the Shouzen platform, which can be regarded as the right path to the throne.

But where did Yuan Xi go to ascend the throne?

Guo Tu said, "The king should not ascend the throne for the time being." ”

Yuan Xi was furious and asked, "Why?" ”

Guo Tuyin smiled: "This is simple, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight ......." ”

Yuan Xi immediately laughed, waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is called crane and clam fighting, and the fisherman profits!" But Yuan Xi became depressed again in a blink of an eye, and said: "Aiqing, Yuan Tan, that guy only has 50,000 people in Yecheng, can he get Yuan Shang?" ”

Xin Ping smiled at this time and said, "Great King, although the King of Qingzhou does not have any power in Jizhou, he has a lot of power in the neighboring Gunzhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou. I think he must have issued an order to requisition troops from all the states by now. ”

Yuan Xi was finally relieved, so he sent out the message. expressed his sincere thoughts for his father and brotherly affection for his siblings. And showed his righteousness, and said: "Brothers should value peace, why use swords and guns? Since this is the case, I will not fight for this emperor. ”

Hearing that Yuan Xi was indisputable, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang hurriedly went to woo him.

However. Yuan Xi still showed his desirelessness, he said: "I want to be neutral, I will listen to whoever of you is orthodox." ”

This orthodoxy seems to be going to be played.

However, before fighting, you must first correct your name, that is, ascend the throne and become the emperor. So, the day after Yuan Shao's death. That is, in 206, on April 6, Yuan Shang succeeded to the throne in the palace, and the year name was unified, which means orthodoxy.

And Yuan Tan, on the one hand, quickly sent people to mobilize soldiers and horses in Gunzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places, and on the other hand, it was also April 6 at Shouchantai outside the city. He was proclaimed the throne and proclaimed emperor, and the year name was Suncheon. It means to obey the destiny of heaven.

After the news spread, the world of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in an uproar, and the whole world was also in an uproar, and the heart said that this was really a historical precedent, and since Xia Zhou for more than a thousand years, no son has been so tidy.

Yuan Tan issued the imperial order. Defeat the puppet emperor Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang also issued an edict to crusade against the puppet emperor Yuan Tan.

In the world of the Great Zhou, I don't know who to listen to. But this is easy to do, wait for the two emperors to start fighting, who wins. Listen to whomever it is.

Yuan Shang side, Ye Du, Imperial Palace.

Feng Ji is already a disciple of the third company, and his heart says that he is beautiful, and his heart says that I am also a third prince in a lifetime, so his mind is flexible, his limbs are diligent, and he knelt out and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen looks at the king of Youzhou and does not fight, but in fact, he is also fighting." He only has one state, and he is not the opponent of His Majesty and the King of Qingzhou at all, he is waiting for the benefit of the fisherman! ”

Yuan Xi did not claim the title of emperor, he could wait for the benefit of the fisherman, but Yuan Shang, who had already claimed the title of emperor, could not wait, he had to attack Yuan Tan. Everyone in the world is watching, if he doesn't attack, he will be a hypocritical emperor.

Therefore, knowing that Yuan Xi was waiting for the benefit of the fisherman, Yuan Shang also had to attack Yuan Tan.

The trial is now the third prince's captain, and his value has skyrocketed, and sure enough, he has made meritorious contributions from the dragon, which is the only way to get promoted and make a fortune, and he held the Chaoban and pounced on the channel: "Your Majesty, the three families are fighting, and there are too many variables." The neutrality of the king of Youzhou is also beneficial to us. As long as the king of Qingzhou is eliminated, the Central Plains can be passed down, and then it is easy to clean up the king of Youzhou. ”

So, Yuan Shang decided to prepare today and attack Yuan Tan tomorrow, that is, on April 7.

On the other hand, Yuan Tan's side and his advisor Chen Deng and the others also considered the same as Yuan Shang, defeating the opponent and eliminating Yuan Xi as easily. Therefore, Yuan Tan sent people to rush a hundred miles, and quickly ordered the army of Gunzhou to cross the river from Yanjin and Baima, and the army of Qingzhou to drive over from the plain.

In addition, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang began to make an appointment to fight, and set a time to start the battle tomorrow, that is, at 9 o'clock in the morning, to fight the top of Yecheng. And they all sent envoys to Yuan Xi, demanding that Yuan Xi be neutral, and that the soldiers could not enter within ten miles of the battlefield on both sides, otherwise, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang would attack him together.

Gunzhou and Qingzhou are next to Jizhou, after Yuan Tan sent Han Hao, Du Pre, Sun Guan and other henchmen back, these people did not stop, within the boundaries of the two states, but all those who were involved with the "soldiers" were brought, and a lot of strong men were arrested.

Therefore, before the decisive battle, Yuan Tan had 300,000 soldiers, which was comparable to Yuan Shang's troops.

The news spread quickly.

"It's a big deal, the Emperor of Orthodoxy and the Emperor Shuntian are going to have a decisive battle!"

"The two sides agreed to ...... at one hour on the morning of the sixth."

"I don't know who can win!"

After Gao Yuan's secret agent got the news, the fast horse was sent to Jinyang as soon as possible. That is, before dark on the afternoon of the 5th, Gao Yuan got the news.

Jinyang Mansion Chamber.

Gao Yuan put down the battle report, and faced Sima Yi, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Tian Feng, and Fu Zhu's nine military advisors, sighing, "Yuan Benchu is dead!" ”

When Tian Feng and Fu Zhu shook their heads and sighed, Sima Yi said, "My lord, as you imagined, the three sons are vying for the throne, and the decisive battle is the best time for me to send troops. ”

Gao Yuan nodded when he heard this, and said, "It's just that this Yuan Xi is a variable. ”

Jia Xu smiled, analyzing Yuan Xi's conspiracy, he was the most clear, and immediately said: "The lord doesn't need to worry, if the expectation is good, this Yuan Xi is also waiting for an opportunity." He looked at his colleagues again and said: "Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's military strength is comparable, and the ability of the military generals is also comparable. ”

"Of course, what the old man said is not that these two people will die together, but that their army will be exhausted. When Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan didn't have soldiers, ....... Lao Jia Xu made a neck-pinching motion, "Yuan Xi went up, one guy is all done, he is the emperor." ”

When the military advisors heard this, they said in their hearts that this Yuan Xi is poisonous enough, and Lao Jia Xu is also clear enough.

Lao Jia Xu finally said: "Therefore, my lord, you are waiting for Yuan Xi to make a move, this is called the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind." ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, he said in his heart that he was worthy of Lao Jiaxu, and he insisted on getting it. So, he set off overnight and went to Huguan, and ordered Zhao Yun in the Changshan base area to be ready at all times, and when the official order arrived, he would immediately send troops to Yecheng.

It is said that early the next morning, that is, on April 6, it will dawn.

The four gates of Yecheng were opened, and Yuan Shang led an army of 300,000 people, and he drove out with a bang, looking at the Shouzen platform ten miles away in the north.

When Yuan Shang came to the Shouzen platform, he saw that Yuan Tan's army had already begun to arrange the battle array.

So, Yuan Shang was in the east, Yuan Tan was in the west, and Shouchantai was in the middle, and the two sides added up to 600,000 soldiers and horses, forming a double dragon to grab the pearl.

Yuan Tan has strategists like Chen Deng and his son, and there are fierce generals like Zang Ba, Han Hao, Sun Guan, Du Pre, Wang Zhao, Cen Bi, and Peng An.

Yuan Shang's side is not weak at all, there are strategists like trial and matching, Feng Ji, Zhaozhao, Ma Yan, Su You, Zhang Yi, Zhu Ling, Li Tong, Jiang Yiqu, Lu Weihuang, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang and other generals, if you talk about the number of fierce generals, it is still above Yuan Tan.
