In the middle of the first month of the second year of Chuping, that is, in the middle of the first month of 190 AD, Yuan Shao, the main chariot and cavalry general of the Kwantung Military Alliance, and Han Fu, the main general of Jizhou, and the main general of the Kwantung Dynasty planned to establish the Han clan, the Taifu of the Dynasty, the Mu of Youzhou, and Liu Yu, the Marquis of Xiangben, as the new emperor.

The reason for this is that the emperor is young and controlled by Dong Zhuo.

Liu Yu is a member of the Han clan, after Liu Jiang, the son of Emperor Liu Xiu of Guangwu, the king of Donghai Gong, he was magnanimous and elegant, strict and frugal, and all officials took it as an example, so that the wealthy families who originally had a luxurious style between far and near were influenced by it and changed the atmosphere.

And Liu Yu guarded Youzhou, was lenient and benevolent for the government, appeased the people, and won the hearts of the people. During the period of ruling Youzhou, he treated the nomadic people such as Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Fuyu near Youzhou with a Huairou policy, so that most of these Hulu were attached to them, and they paid tribute at any time and did not dare to make trouble. In Youzhou, he quelled Zhang Ju's rebellion, actively operated salt and iron, opened a market in Shanggu with the benefit of Youzhou salt and iron, and traded with Hulu, and exchanged money for a time, so that the treasury was full and no longer barren in the past. As a result, millions of people in Qingzhou and Xuzhou were exiled to Youzhou and lived and worked in peace and contentment in Youzhou.

Dong Zhuo attached great importance to receiving this news. From the legal system, Liu Yu's bloodline is the purest bloodline of Emperor Guangwu, and he is fully qualified to inherit the throne, his ancestor Liu Jiang, King Gong of the East China Sea, is the eldest son of Emperor Guangwu, who was originally undoubtedly made the crown prince, and later his mother Empress Guo, angered Emperor Guangwu because of the incident, and was deposed as the queen.

After Liu Jiang saw that his mother was deposed, he felt that it would be difficult to keep his position as the crown prince, and if he was greedy for power, it was very likely that his life would not be saved. He wrote to himself to ask to give up his position as the crown prince and become a vassal king to save his life. Later, he was established as King Gong of the East China Sea.

For Dong Zhuo, if Yuan Shao, Han Fu and others succeeded in making Liu Yu ascend the throne and become the new emperor, then the political advantage he now held would no longer exist, and the political advantage of Feng Tianzi to order the princes would be gone. Moreover, the forces under his command are bound to have great panic because of this, causing the morale of the civil and military generals under his command to be disheartened, and the forces have become a mess of scattered sand.

After Dong Shouye received this news, he did not dare to disclose the news to the generals under his command, so as not to cause panic, and now is the critical moment when the war is about to be made, and the morale of the people must be in the best condition.

However, Dong Shouye was not very panicked about this, after all, as a person who came over in the 21st century, Dong Shouye clearly knew that Yuan Shao's appointment of Liu Yu as emperor this time was just a farce and would not succeed.

But the current shape is that many people in the Kwantung region are very optimistic about this matter, and they are also responding positively, and for a time the momentum is mighty and shakes the world.

Although Dong Shouye was very sure in his heart, he didn't know how to comfort his son Dong Zhuo for a while, so he secretly sent someone to summon Jia Xu to his big tent to discuss. Now there are not many people in the whole army who can express their opinions on this matter, and the one that Dong Shouye values the most is none other than Jia Xu.

After Jia Xu arrived, Dong Shouye retreated left and right, and even Dian Wei, who had been guarding, was sent to guard outside the big tent, strictly ordering no one to approach the big tent of the Chinese army, no matter what happened, he had to wait until he finished the discussion, and those who violated the order would be beheaded. With Dian Wei watching outside, Dong Shouye was also more relieved.

Jia Xu saw Dong Shouye acting so rejuvenating in front of him for the first time, it was a little strange, this was a situation that had never happened before, his own son had always been calm and stable in everything! I secretly guessed that something big must have happened, and I didn't dare to slack off at the moment.

Dong Shouye saw that the surroundings had been arranged properly, and no one would hear what was said inside, so he said to Jia Xu: "Strategist, this son has a lot of news to discuss with you. After speaking, he looked at Jia Xu intently.

Jia Xu was a little uncomfortable for the first time by his burning gaze, and immediately arched his hand and said, "Childe, please speak." ”

Seeing this, Dong Shouye did not hesitate at all, and said: "Today, I received news from my father's spies in Hebei that Yuan Shao and Han Fu planned to support Liu Yu as the new emperor in Hebei. ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he immediately stood up and confirmed: "Is this matter serious?" "It seems that this old fox was also shocked by this heavy news, and he still needs to confirm it.

Dong Shouye nodded, undeniable, indicating that the news was absolutely accurate.

Jia Xu thought for a while and said: "If this matter is successful, Liu Yu will become the new emperor, his prestige will be far away in Hebei, no one can compare, and there are very few people in the world who oppose it, plus Yuan Shao and Han Fu as wings, Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third dukes, and his protégés are all over the world, and he is the leader of the Kwantung princes, gathering the world's popularity, Liu Yu and Yuan Shao joined forces, plus Han Fu assisted from the side, the four states of Hebei, Youzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou must be determined in a moment; Then turn south, cross the Yellow River, gallop the Central Plains, the Kwantung princes are willing to attach their wings, the Central Plains of Yanzhou Zhang Miao, Cao Cao, Xuzhou Zhang Chao and so on are Yuan Shao's runners, so stable in the Central Plains, it is not difficult to control Yanzhou and Xuzhou; Further south Yuan Shu dominates Nanyang, controls Yuzhou, and looks at Huaiyang, so that the two Huai can be determined, and Yuzhou and Yangzhou can be held in applause; The rest is Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Liu Yan of Yizhou, the world's major events, it is estimated that Liu Biao does not dare to risk the world's disapproval, against Liu Yu, Liu Yan of Yizhou is located in a remote area, known as a different ambition, can still be divided for a while. In this way, Liu Yu and Yuan Shao gathered the people of Youzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou and Kyushu to confront Luoyang with our Western Liang Army. Isn't it a big deal for our army! As he spoke, he got up from the desk and walked up and down the tent.

Dong Shouye saw that Jia Xu was a little messy, and immediately felt a little funny, he didn't want this famous old fox with deep and high wisdom in history to have a mess. So, he hurriedly woke up and said: "Strategist, in my son's opinion, although Yuan Shao tried his best this time, I am afraid that in the end, it will be a waste of water." ”

When Jia Xu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he said, "Why did Childe say this? ”

Dong Shouye smiled, looked at Jia Xu, and did not speak. Jia Xu didn't know what the situation was for a while, but then reacted, bowed to Dong Shouye slightly, and said: "Childe, Jia has lost his temper, I hope Gongzi will forgive him!" ”

Dong Shouye didn't mean to blame at all, after all, this news was indeed too shocking, and Yuan Shao and Han Fu were very likely to succeed. So he said, "It's just a gut feeling, military advisor, if it were you, would you spit out the meat that you ate in your mouth?" ”

After hearing this, Jia Xu said: "Childe, let Jia think about it in advance!" After saying that, he walked up like no one in the tent again, suddenly stopped, and looked at Dong Shouye a little embarrassed.

Dong Shouye knew what the situation was, and said: "The military advisor, please take care of yourself, now there are only two people in the account, this is the discussion between the master and the apprentice, and there is no need to stick to the small sections." ”

Jia Xu didn't talk nonsense after hearing this, took a step forward, and continued to walk in the tent.
