81 Mighty Tiger Prison. Xu You's suggestion
[In the recommendation of Sanjiang, please ask for Sanjiang tickets every day, please don't blame, xiexie! 】
With a belly full of anger, Yuan Shao returned to the camp and locked himself in the big tent of the Chinese army alone.
Outside the big tent, all gathered were Yuan Shao's advisers and generals, and there was no roaring thunder inside, but it was very unsettling. Wen Chou briefly described the battle in front of the Tiger Prison today, and everyone understood.
Zuihou still Xu Yu was bold, and reported outside, and after receiving Yuan Shao's summons, he hurriedly dressed his hands with both hands, took a deep breath, and opened the tent and entered.
There were no lights and candles in the tent, and Xu You suddenly entered from the outside, and he couldn't see the situation in the tent at all, so he couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.
"Ziyuan is here, light the lamps and candles, and sit!"
In Yuan Shao's words, with the majesty of being a superior, Xu You agreed, quickly took out the fire medium, lit the lamp and candle, and sat under Yuan Shao.
Under the candlelight, Yuan Shao, who was sitting on the main seat, looked as usual, and he couldn't see any clues, but he followed Yuan Shao for a long time, and he knew that Yuan Shao was like this, and the calmer he was on the surface, the more angry he was in his heart.
And the longer this situation lasts, the stronger the anger in his heart.
When Jizhou Mu Hanfu besieged the Bohai Taishou Mansion, Xu You can be regarded as having learned Yuan Shao's forbearance skills, which was terrifying and respectable.
After being silent for a long time, Yuan Shao slowly opened his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Today's battle, Ziyuan knows about it, what do you think?" ”
Xu You nodded yes and replied respectfully: "Ming Gong's eyes are like torches, and his subordinates are a little shallow and generous. ”
slapped Yuan Shao on the back, Xu Yu took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "In today's battle, my subordinates think that internal worries are worse than external troubles. ”
"Hmm!" , Yuan Shao nodded slightly, "Go on." ”
"Whoa!"
Xu Yu promised and continued to reply in a low voice: "The Xiliang army is unjustified and has few helpers, and the troops are insufficient, this is an external trouble, and it is really not enough to worry. But before the tiger prison was closed, the princes from all walks of life hid behind on the grounds that the Ming Duke did not have an explicit order, and did not send the generals to fight. Therefore, his subordinates thought that Ming Gong had to ignore this. ”
Yuan Shao sat upright on the main seat, his face did not change, as if he was contemplating, but also thought that he didn't listen to what Xu You was saying at all, Xu You could only hold his breath and say no more.
After a long time, Yuan Shao sighed lightly, with a bitter face, shook his head and sighed: "Shao Ben is loyal, his heart is to the court, but above the temple, there are people who are all vegetarian people. Alas, is it that the heavens are going to kill my big man? ”
"Ming Gong is brave and loyal, and his subordinates are very admired!"
Xu You patted his ass, it was coming with his mouth open, and then he turned to the topic, leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "The temple is entrenched in a small night, and the states and counties have their own thoughts, and now it is Dong Zhuo's establishment, and the blood is ominous. ”
This suggestion is not the first time that Xu You has mentioned it to Yuan Shao, at least when the Sour Jujube Alliance was being prepared, he had mentioned it, but Yuan Shao had always had concerns, so he did not agree.
But the actual reason, although neither of them said it explicitly, in their hearts, they both understood it very well.
does not recognize the current son Liu Xie, and calls on the state and county to support the establishment of the Son of Heaven Liu Debate, which is equivalent to abolishing the establishment again.
Since the death of Emperor Ling, in just over half a year, there have been three abolitions, first Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, abolished the general He Jin supported the son of heaven Liu Wei, and established Dong Hou Liu Xie as the emperor; After Dong Zhuo's death, Situ Wang Yun abolished the establishment again, abolished Dong Hou Liu Xie, and re-established Shi Hou Liu Wei as the emperor; Then Li Dao and others led the Western Liang army to attack Luoyang, and once again abolished the Li, abolished the Shihou Liu Wei, and established the Donghou Liu Xie as the emperor.
Tossing and turning like this, the abolition of the establishment is already child's play.
But Xu You's suggestion to Yuan Shao is different, when the Kwantung Coalition Army has not yet entered Luoyang, he first told the world and prepared to establish Shihou Liu Wei as the emperor again, which is tantamount to reminding, and even persecuting, Li Dao and others killed Shihou Liu Bian, in order to eliminate this idea of the Kwantung Coalition Army.
Xu Yu didn't dare to say this meaning, but Yuan Shao didn't understand, and the viciousness of this strategy was that it could not only strengthen Yuan Shao's prestige, but also make the Xiliang army bear the charge of killing the king, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
In fact, there is a deeper meaning, Xu You only dared to think about it quietly in the dead of night, and never dared to say even a few words, but he could feel that this deeper meaning, Ming Gong Yuan Shao, also had it in his heart.
That's standing on behalf of Han!
The so-called proverb of "those who represent the Han Dynasty should be high", but no one thinks that this is just an insignificant proverb, but regards it as a move to conform to the cycle of heaven and the three unifications and five elements.
Yuan Shao pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head slightly, and said: "This matter is very important, and it needs to be discussed again and again with Zhuzhou County." Da Sima's side, how is the situation? ”
The great Sima is Liu Yu, he was originally worshiped by the imperial court as the pastor of Youzhou, and later worshiped as the Tai Lieutenant, just when he was about to leave Youzhou and rush back to Luoyang, Emperor Ling died, Dong Zhuo led the army into Luoyang, and his trip was so delayed.
Later, Dong Zhuo was in charge, except for the party, and wantonly used celebrities, worshiped Yuan Shao as the Bohai Taishou, worshiped Yuan Shu as the rear general, Lu Zhi, Kong Ling, Liu Dai, Cao Cao and others, all of whom were added to the knighthood by Dong Zhuo at that time. And Dong Zhuo ordered himself to be the captain and worship Liu Yu, who was still stranded in Youzhou, as the great Sima.
Since then, Liu Yu, the great Sima, has stayed in Youzhou and has not returned to Luoyang.
It's just that his life is not very easy now, although the position of Da Sima has not been deprived by the current imperial court, but he does not have much real power, but Youzhou Mu Lu Zhi is a celebrity and has a good personal relationship with Liu Yu, so he can be safe.
Xu You nodded and replied: "Ming Gong, Da Sima has repeatedly thanked Ming Gong for his generosity. ”
"Well, that's good!"
Yuan Shao nodded in approval, pondered for a moment, changed his words, and asked, "In the battle of Tiger Prison Pass, what is Ziyuan's good strategy?" ”
Xu You showed a grateful expression on his face, and replied without thinking: "The army has conquered the Tiger Prison Pass, and it will take time to supervise the construction of siege equipment. ”
Seeing Yuan Shao muttering there, Xu Yu avoided talking about Yuan Shao's deflated food in front of the Tiger Prison Pass today, and suggested: "Send the generals to fight, and the states and counties have an unshirkable responsibility. As the leader of the coalition army, Duke Ming can issue a charter, and all departments of the coalition army need to send generals to fight, those who fight, reward, those who win the battle, heavy rewards, those who can take the head of Li Dao, there are heavy rewards, and the marquis of Chi Yang! ”
The Marquis of Chiyang is now Li Dao's title, and Xu Yu's suggestion is tantamount to saying that whoever can take Li Dao's head level will also have his title with his head.
"Good!"
Yuan Shao happily slapped the table, his eyes shining, "Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, with the talents of all departments of the coalition army, even if Li Guo and the thieves are brave and brave, how can they be able to defeat the many powerful coalition soldiers." ”
The discussion was established, and Yuan Shao immediately went to invite Lu Zhi, Cao Cao and others, and after a while, everyone arrived one after another.
This time it was a small-scale discussion, and only five people, including Cao Cao, the general of Fenwu, Lu Zhi of Youzhou, Liu Dai of Yanzhou, Jiaohe of Qingzhou, and Zhou Qian of Yangzhou, and Han Fu of Jizhou and Tao Qian of Xuzhou, did not arrive because they stayed in the sour date.
Yuan Shao proposed that everyone else was fine, but Liu Dai, the pastor of Yanzhou, frowned and objected: "All the monarchs have led the army here, all of them are loyal to the country, and the army is gathered in front of the pass. It is not yet known how effective such a war will be, but for more than 100,000 troops, every extra day of stay will cost an extra day of food and wages. Besides, all the ministries need to send generals to fight, which is too strong. ”
After Liu Dai finished speaking, he glanced at Qingzhou Mu Jiaohe, as well as Yangzhou Mu Zhou Qian, what he said earlier is a big truth, in fact, the real intention lies in Zuihou's sentence.
The reason is actually very simple, the three of them under the account, the soldiers are not strong, they fall between the two, but the generals under the account, but they are really very lacking, with the generals they see today, send any of the generals out, I am afraid that they will go up to die.
Sure enough, Qingzhou Mu Jiaohe and Yangzhou Mu Zhou Qian all nodded their heads there, obviously agreeing with what Liu Dai said.
Seeing that Yuan Shao was also frowning slightly, Lu Zhi hurriedly spoke up and suggested: "The words of the envoy are also reasonable, the army conquers the Tiger Prison Pass, the best policy is the best way, but the siege equipment can be supervised, it takes a long time, send the generals to fight, can boost the military prestige, you might as well release the heavy reward, your own warriors are eager to fight, alliance leader, everyone, and what do you see?" ”
Everyone was like this, Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement. The discussion was established, the detailed rules were immediately set, and the whole battalion was notified that night to recruit generals who could go to war.
In a few moments, the news spread throughout the battalion, and the brave men who believed in their own martial arts were all grinding their hands and eager to try, ready to make a big show in the next day's battle.
The agitation in the camp of the Kwantung Coalition Army, separated by ten miles, even if you stand at the highest wall of the Tiger Prison Pass, you can't see the slightest sign.
The night sky was like a wash, the stars were shining, and the moonlight was flowing wantonly, shining on Lu Bu and Hua Xiong on the wall, as if gilding them with a layer of milky white brilliance.
From the time he led the army into the Tiger Prison, Lu Bu was close to Hua Xiong intentionally or unintentionally.
Huaxiong's height is not as outrageous as it was said in the romance of later generations, as high as nine feet, but according to Lu Bu's observation, there are more than eight feet, which is only a little shorter than him, from Beidi County, Liangzhou, from the geographical boundary, it was under the jurisdiction of Shangjun of Bingzhou, so it can barely be regarded as half of Bingzhou.
Half a fellow, of course, is just an excuse, Hua Xiong is a military general, and he is proud of his martial arts, as soon as Lu Bu led the army to the Tiger Pass, he couldn't wait to invite Lu Bu to learn, the result, of course, can be imagined.
Because of this like-minded person, Hua Xiong not only admired Lu Bu, but also had more awe.
Before the night was deep, Hua Xiong led his soldiers to patrol the night, and Lu Bu would go to the wall every night to look at the starry sky and think about his thoughts. During this time, it has become a habit for the two of them to chat a few words on the wall.
When he turned to leave, Lu Bu looked at the outside of the pass, and suddenly said for no reason: "Tomorrow, Yuan Shao is only afraid that he will lead the generals to come and find some face." ”
Hua Xiong smiled knowingly, and asked casually: "Wouldn't that be better, Feng Xian should be able to fight and show his prestige." ”
Lu Bu's heart moved when he heard this, he turned to look at Hua Xiong, pondered for a moment, and said with a half-joking: "That's what I said, tomorrow's battle, if you are happy to see your brother, don't fight with your brother for your opponent." ”
