Chapter 447: Claiming the Emperor

Jia Rong glanced at the information in his hand, and a sneer appeared on his face, the jade seal was stolen by Liu Si from the heavily guarded Jiangdong, and then given to Yuan Shu, its purpose is obvious, and although the situation is chaotic today, the Han family has always been a high existence, and it is the trend of righteousness, if Yuan Shu gets the jade seal and becomes the emperor, then the influence of the Han family will be instantly reduced to the bottom.

And Sun Ce lost the jade seal, and he didn't dare to say anything, after all, he swore in front of all the princes that he didn't see the jade seal, so he could only suffer a dumb loss.

Yuan Shu is Wang Ba eats scales, and he wants to be the emperor with an iron heart, and even sleeps with the jade seal in his arms, holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, and holding it in his hand for fear of losing it, the jade seal makes his desire hidden in the depths of his heart completely stimulated.

The army of Yangzhou is moving closer to the border, guarding against the soldiers and horses of the land of Jingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou, while sending envoys to Jiangdong Sun Ce, everything is preparing for Yuan Shu to ascend the throne and call the emperor, and on the other hand, to build a palace, since he wants to ascend the throne and call the emperor, he naturally can't live in the current state pastor's mansion, the financial resources of Yangzhou are limited, Yuan Shu is tyrannical, and he grabs the people everywhere to build the palace, causing the people to complain, not only that, Yuan Shu also ordered the officials to prepare the beauties of the harem, and ascended to the ninth five, how can there be no beauties three thousand, directly caused, The people smeared their daughters with ashes to avoid being taken away by soldiers who broke into the house.

Of course, this kind of thinking of Yuan Shu can only be known by the core figures of Yuan Shujun, Li Feng was directly named Situ by Yuan Shu, the general Zhang Xun was named a general, and Ji Ling was named a hussar general, everything was waiting for Yuan Shu to ascend the throne.

Poor Zhang Xun and Ji Ling are still excited about the official positions they have received, just imagine that the entire Yangzhou is a big place, and some of it is occupied by Sun Ce, even if it is the use of being named a general hussar general, Ji Ling Zhang Xun is dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival from the minister of the dragon.

In the third year of Xingping, the New Year has just passed, and an incident from Yangzhou shook the whole world.

"Yuan Shu is the emperor!" The reaction of the princes of the world after hearing the news was to be stunned, the Han family withered, but the residual power was still there, and Yuan Shu's approach was tantamount to pushing himself to the forefront and attracting the criticism of the princes of the world.

Yuan Shu built the name Zhongshi, placed the Gongqing, the north and south suburbs of the temple, Yuan Shu called the emperor, appointed Jiujiang Taishou as Huainan Yin, Guangzhi Gongqing courtiers, and also built the altar used by the emperor to worship the emperor in the south of the city and north of the city, all in accordance with the standards of the royal family.

After being called the emperor, the generals and officials under Yuan Shu Dafeng, widely recruited wives and concubines, hundreds of beauties in the harem, sang every night, and lived obscenely, Yangzhou did not suffer from the snow disaster in the last year, but because Yuan Shu built a palace, and became a disaster everywhere, there are starving bones on the road, and the people are easy to eat, which can be seen everywhere.

In order to show their identity, the beauties in the palace used all the fairy love from the Immortal Love Pavilion, Yuan Shu went out, and it required a huge convoy, and the people did not dare to say it on the surface, and Yuan Shu had already been killed no less than ten thousand times in their hearts.

In March of the same year, Jiangdong Sun Ce announced a crusade against Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu broke off the relationship, Danyang guarded Wu Jing too much, and the general Sun Ben defected to Jiangdong Sun Ce, and Yuan Shu's strength was greatly weakened.

In May, Yanzhou Cao Cao raised 50,000 troops to attack Yuan Shu, and his former ally Liu Biao also issued a notice that Yuan Shu had nothing to do with it, and for a time, the situation in Yangzhou became precarious, Liu Biao and Yuan Shao did not attack Yuan Shu openly, but Cao Jun was an elite soldier in a hundred battles, and Yuan Shu's army was rampant.

Jia Rong, who was in Chang'an, also announced the crusade as a general, ordered 10,000 soldiers and horses, personally led the army, and killed the Central Plains, so that the princes of the Central Plains were dumbfounded, the Xiliang army was far away in Chang'an, and Yangzhou was in the Central Plains, how could the princes of the Central Plains rest assured that the Xiliang army would pass, after all, Ding Tai's affairs were still vivid, and Jia Rong could only lead the army to wave the flag and shout at Hangu Pass, but the momentum was enough, and it could be regarded as giving an explanation to the princes and people of the world.

The Xiliang army went out, Yuan Shu was completely panicked, outside the Tiger Prison Pass in the past, the strength of the Xiliang Army was imprinted in Yuan Shu's mind, thinking left and right, and demoted Zhang Xun's position as a general to a hussar general, and the post of general was still held by Jia Rong.

Although Yuan Shu is the nominal Yangzhou pastor, he actually controls Yangzhou only in three counties, Lujiang County, Jiujiang County, and Danyang County, and Wu Jing, the Taishou of Danyang County, has taken refuge in Sun Ce.

Cao Cao's subordinates are all elite soldiers, how can Yuan Shu resist, in the first battle, the 60,000 elite soldiers under his command were defeated and lost, and only more than 40,000 people were recovered, and nearly half of the elite soldiers were lost.

At this time, the Han Emperor of Yanzhou is the real royal orthodoxy, how can he be wronged by Yuan Shu, Cao Cao is ordered to do it personally, and he is also righteous, Yuan Shu is the emperor, but this emperor is the emperor who all the princes sneered at.

At the moment when Yuan Shu became emperor, Yuan Shao also broke away from him and made his position clear.

In the next two battles, Yuan Shu was defeated in successive battles and could not resist the Cao army, and the national capital Shouchun was also captured by the Cao army, leading the harem beauties and a group of officials to flee in embarrassment.

In the successive wars, Cao Cao's military strength was also insufficient, and the people in Lujiang County who were governed by Yuan Shu were not able to make a living, and the displaced people were all over the field, and the palace built was also burned by Yuan Shu's departure.

Cao Cao led his army to be stationed in Shouchun and did not move.

The world has been fighting for a long time, and the military strength of the princes is almost consumed, and at this time, Chang'an and Yizhou under the rule of the Xiliang Army have become happy places.

Yuan Shu became the emperor, which means that the imperial power of the imperial family has completely fallen, and the influence of the people is gone, even if Cao Cao defeats Yuan Shu, it can only be recovered to a small extent.

After staying in Chang'an for so long, sharing the joy of family with his wife and children, Jia Rong's heart is also ready to move, he is a military general, how can he withstand such loneliness, except for the time spent with his wife and children, most of the time he spends every day is in the barracks, staying with the soldiers, training soldiers, and his martial arts have not fallen.

Zhao Yun was transferred to Daijun, and the commander of the blood guard was replaced by Zhao Fan, although Zhao Fan's martial arts are not very good, but he is calm and heavy, in Zhao Yun's words, he can take on heavy responsibilities, as the leader of the blood guard, it does not necessarily mean how high the martial arts are, but to protect Jia Rong's safety at all times.

In the battle with the Xianbei army, Ma Chao's martial arts emerged in the army and was transferred to the blood guard, so that Ma Teng was old and happy, and there was a tiger at home, so why worry about the lintel.

"Junko, how have you been in Hangu Pass in recent years?" At this time, there were only Jia Rong, Li Shun and Zhang Xiu in the house, and Zhao Fan was guarding at the door.

Li Shun replied respectfully: "Acceptable! ”

Jia Rong patted Li Shun's shoulder and said, "What is Shang Ke?" Take me to the army to see if the trapped camp of the famous Xiliang Army is still the same as in the past. ”

Li Shun's body shook and clenched his fists and said, "No! "In the past, when Jia Rong first formed the trap camp, he often went to the army to inspect it, and the trap camp at that time was a team that all the soldiers joined when they broke their heads.

Jia Rong and Li Shun walked side by side in the front, followed by Zhao Fan and Zhang Xiu.

"Shunzi, in the future, when the two of us are in private, you can call me the eldest brother, you and I will go out of Lijia Village together, by the way, how many soldiers are there in Lijia Village and me at the beginning?"

"I, Li Hu, Li Li, Li Fei."

"There were only four soldiers left when they came!" Jia Rong sighed.

"How does it feel to be in Hanyaguan? If you're not satisfied, I'll transfer you somewhere else. Jia Rong asked with concern.

The soldiers along the way saw Li Shun and Jia Rong walking side by side, and they were proud in their hearts, their already straight bodies were still straight and straight, and the main general was valued in front of the general, and they also felt that they had a lot of face.

Zhang Xiu and Zhao Fan behind them were shocked when they heard Jia Rong's words, in the Xiliang Army, everything is based on the execution of orders, where is the guard, unless there is a big change, there will be no change, and Jia Rong dared to make such a big concession for Li Shun, the general of Hangu Pass, and Li Shun is just a figure at the level of a battalion general.

Li Shun hugged his fists and said: "My lord, Hangu Pass is an important checkpoint for our army to guard the princes, and it is related to the safety of the Xiliang army. ”

"I, Li Shun, was just an ignorant boy in Lijia Village back then, and since I followed the lord, I have today, and this life has long been the lord's."

Jia Rong's heart moved slightly, it was really not easy for Li Shun, who was usually taciturn, to be able to say these words.

"Don't worry, I won't transfer you away, the location of Hangu Pass is important, and three thousand soldiers will be transferred to guard it."

Zhang Xiu bowed and said yes, Jia Rong's fluttering words promoted Li Shun's position from the battalion general to the level of the regimental general, at this time there were nearly 3,000 guards in Hangu Pass, and Li Shun's actual position was the regimental general, and then 3,000 people, Li Shun's status directly followed the division general.

The soldiers who were training in the camp saw Jia Rong in person, and their enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high, and their names were taken by Jia Rong and they were given great hopes.

The few soldiers in the camp who had never seen Jia Rong looked forward and were stopped by the old soldiers in the team.

Jia Rong looked at the immobile soldiers in the camp and showed a satisfied look.

Li Shun shouted loudly: "Trap the camp and resist the enemy!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the soldiers on the school field immediately moved, and instantly formed a large array of eight hundred people, and the cooperation between swordsmen, spearmen, archers, and shields was rigorous, even if the enemy came with a rain of arrows, the loss of the team would not be too great.

Under the surprised gaze of Zhang Xiu and Zhao Fan, a dense array of archers appeared on the opposite side of the trapped camp, with bows and arrows, and the arrows that covered the sky and the sun came towards the soldiers in the trapped camp.

This is clearly not a drill, but a battlefield, Zhang Xiu saw that these arrows were the arrows in normal battles, that is, if the soldiers trapped in the camp could not dodge, they would face death.

Without Li Shun's order, the shield soldiers immediately set up their shields, sparks flew, and none of the dense arrows rained in, this kind of training has a great test of the soldiers' reaction ability, and if they are not careful, they will die in the hands of their own people.
