Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The war between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan lasted for eight years, starting in the second year of Chuping and continuing until the fourth year of Jian'an. At first, Gongsun Zhan had the upper hand in an all-round way, but later in Jieqiao, the battle for Qingzhou failed, and more importantly, he attacked and killed Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, and Liu Yu's subordinate officials Xian Yufu, Yan Rou and others gathered troops to rise up, constantly harassing his rear, and finally forced to retract into Yi Jing and became a turtle in the urn.
However, at this time, it was just the first year of Xingping, and the eight-year campaign was not even halfway through, Liu Yu only hung at the end of last year, Xian Yufu and others were not yet in the climate, and the chess was in the middle game, to be honest, I couldn't tell who won and who lost, at most Gongsun Chan fell behind. It was Xun who suddenly asserted that Gongsun would be defeated at this time, and discussed the situation in the post-Gongsun era with Liu Bei, which was a bit too demonic.
But the words have already been spoken, and it is not easy to make up for it. Yes Xun simply gritted his teeth, his meow demon is a demon, after all, many of Guo Fengxiao's remarks in this life don't sound like a demon who can pinch and calculate? So he looked at Liu Bei and smiled incomprehensibly: "This is also because of its current situation." Yuan Shao, Gongsun, the momentum is not together, Gongsun Benzhou is not stable, Yuan Shao from Bohai troops, but increasingly big, after getting Jizhou, and then take Qingzhou, into the state, Xun material three or five years, even Youzhou will change hands - Xuande Gong and wait and see. ”
Liu Bei didn't plan to argue with him, so he had to sigh a long sigh: "Bei is blocked by Yuan Tan, and he can't return to Youzhou, so he can only go south to Xufang, so it seems that there is no possibility of creating his own foundation...... "It's Xunxin who said Oh, you're exposed, right?" Just said that as long as you can regain the glory of the Han family, you don't care if you are a small soldier, which is lamenting that you can't grab the territory and can't create your own foundation. was smiling secretly in his heart, and then heard Liu Bei ask: "Then, Mr. Hongfu's intention is to only assist a capable minister, so as to be the world of the Han family." But I don't know that in today's world, who can be Prime Minister Chen and Marquis Zhou Jiang? ”
When Shi Xun heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Liu Bei with complicated eyes, and said slowly: "In Yixun's opinion, only my lord Cao Yanzhou is ......."
You go upside down and run to ask for advice from others, first hold the other party to the sky, and then ask, "Who is the strongest?" Do you guess the other party will shake his head and say, "Anyway, my boss can't do it." "--Since you are known as a talented man, why is the boss still following him?
The conversation between Liu Bei and Shixun inexplicably suddenly led to a similar path. Besides, during the banquet in Xiangben that day, it was Xun Xian who boasted about his boss and compared Cao Cao to Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, and now Liu Bei asked back, does that implicit need to be guessed? It was Xun Xin who said no, did Liu Bei want to lean on my boss's side?
Ah, Liu Bei wants to vote for Cao Cao, this is really fresh.
But when I think about it, it's not new. First, Liu Bei also voted for Cao Cao in the original history, but at that time his status was high and his reputation was famous, and Cao Cao had already welcomed Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, so Liu Bei could go to Xu Du to be a guest general under the guise of surrendering the Han and not surrendering to Cao. The second is that no one is born ambitious and wants to be the son of heaven, Cao Cao also said that my original ambition is only to write the words "the tomb of Cao Hou, the general of the Han Zhengxi" on the tombstone in the future, Liu Bei is only 2,000 stone at this time, or private, and his reputation is also very low, he wants to create his own foundation It is understandable, saying that he is now thinking about fighting the world and becoming the emperor, it is somewhat nonsense.
So, does Liu Bei want to temporarily attach himself to Cao Cao, or does he really plan to surrender to Cao Cao? This is not very clear. It's just that no matter what Liu Bei thinks, Shi Xun pondered in his heart, what should he do? Should I help Cao Cao recruit Liu Xuande, the world's hero? If history changes completely, and Liu Bei becomes a general under Cao Cao from now on, then his recruitment will be a great achievement; But Liu Bei is not a commodity who is willing to succumb to others for a long time, this is due to his character, I am afraid that "the country is easy to change, and his nature is difficult to change", if he plays some demon moth under Cao Cao in the future, then according to Han law, as a recommender, he will also have to be jointly and severally responsible.
Besides, although he can basically be regarded as a Cao fan in the previous life, and he plans to follow Cao Cao with all his heart in this life, but if he doesn't come out of Liu Bei to compete with Cao Cao for the world, I always feel a little regretful......
Shi Xun's face changed for a while, and it was uncertain, and Liu Bei looked at it strangely. Guan Yu said to Liu Bei that day, if you have to be a "cow queen", then I might as well go to Cao Cao - the Yuan family brothers, I look at it disgusting, Tao Qian is old again, and he doesn't have a few years to live, I look at the surrounding forces, and Cao Cao can not only use soldiers, but also calm the place, maybe a good backer. Liu Bei was still hesitating there, so Jian Yong said, it is better to meet Shi Hongfu and ask him about Cao Cao's intentions, whether he is tolerant, and whether he will accept us.
So Liu Bei ran over and asked Shixun. He asked the sentence "But I don't know who can be Prime Minister Chen and Marquis Zhou Jiang in today's world", he expected that Shixun would not mention others, but definitely said his boss Cao Cao. But the problem is that it was expected that Xun should help Cao Cao blow it again, and then write a letter of recommendation, so that he would lead the troops out of Xuzhou and go to Yanzhou, but unexpectedly, Xun was stunned for a long time here, but he didn't mention the afterword.
Liu Beixin said What's wrong? Do you look down on me and think I'm not worthy of going with Cao Cao? The anger in his heart gradually arched upward, but his face was still sincere, stretching his neck and waiting for Shixun to speak. It was cold at the moment, and Sun Qianxin, who had not spoken beside him, said that it was time for me to speak, I just promised to go to Liu Bei to have an idle meal, but I can't let the master not get off the stage here-
"Hongfu thinks that my lord has fought with Cao Yanzhou, so Cao Yanzhou refuses to accept it?"
Sun Qian's words were very artistic, and Cao Cao refused to ask Liu Bei, but it was much more comfortable to listen to Liu Bei's ears. Shi Xun listened to Sun Gan's words, and said in his heart that I can't take the long exam anymore, and it is estimated that no matter how long the exam is, I won't be able to get any results, so let's just tell the truth: "No, my lord is broad-minded and tolerant of the four seas, and Xuande Gong is a hero in the world, how can he not accept it?" Just ......"
Liu Bei asked just what? Shi Xun let out a long sigh: "I look at the appearance of Xuande Gong, not a person who has lived under people for a long time. "I don't think it will be possible for you to obey Cao Cao for a long time, so I don't dare to recommend it.
Liu Bei couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, countless thoughts flashed in his head in an instant, but in the end, he had no choice but to give a long sigh, stood up and shook Shixun deeply: "Mr. Hongfu is really a genius in the world, and Mr. Cao Yanzhou is assisted by Mr. Cao, how fortunate is it?" It's been taught. ”
Liu Bei resigned and accepted Tao Qian's appointment on the same day and became the governor of Donghai County.
Shi Xun couldn't understand what Liu Bei was thinking, and he had no one to discuss and ask—including Cao Hong and Chen Deng, who soon returned from out of town.
After Chen Deng came back, he first met with Shi Xun, discussed the current situation, and then ran to find Tao Qian. Under his construction, Tao Qian dropped Liu Bei and Zang Ba one by one, and let Zang Ba lead the Lang evil army to be stationed in the southwesternmost part of the Lang Evil Kingdom as a barrier to the west of Tancheng, and let Liu Bei lead the army to camp in the area of Lang Xie Keiwu Mountain to prevent Yuan Tan from going south - and also added 4,000 soldiers and horses to Liu Bei (but the same number of troops as in the original history). At the same time, let Cao Bao lead the army south to Guangling, and go with Zhao Yu and Zhen Rong to prevent Yuan Shu.
Yiqiē was properly arranged, and finally ushered in Shixun's wedding date. Cao Hong sent a big wedding post in advance, and invited many celebrities and nobles in Donghai County and nearby counties to come over -- the Elk and Chen families, as well as the Wang family in Linyi, who had an in-law relationship with the family, needless to say, in addition, he also invited Lang Evil Xiang Yinde, Pengcheng Xiang Jilian, Xiapi Xiang Zhenrong, Guangling Taishou Zhao Yu, as well as the Miao family in Lanling, the Zhuge family in Yangdu, the Xu family in Dongguan, and so on.
The patriarch of the Miao family is the scholar Miao Fei, and Shi Xun remembers that later their family also produced a literary scholar Miao Xi, and the Xu family produced a famous minister Xu Yi, for which he only knew a name, so he was not very interested. But the Zhuge family is different, he found an opportunity to ask Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang where the brothers were, and the other party glanced at him very strangely, saying that he had just followed their uncle Zhuge Xuan to Huainan to be an official - it was a pity that Xun failed to "capture" "Wolong".
Of course, it doesn't mean that the other party will definitely arrive if you place an invitation, for example, Zhenrong will resolutely refuse to come. However, most people still sell the face of the Cao family, even if the eldest family can't come in person, at least they have to send a capable child to congratulate them. Cao Hong took Shixun to meet them one by one, and when he was done, he dragged people to find a secret room for a small meeting. It was Xun who understood what Cao Hong meant, and he wanted to take the opportunity to win over these big families and eunuchs from all over the world to pave the way for himself to completely overwhelm the Elk family.
He estimated that Cao Hong's "treacherous" strategy could drag most people on the thief ship, even if Tao Qian was hung up now, Lu Zhu really held the seal of the state pastor to present it to Liu Bei, and there were not many families in Xuzhou who were willing to admit it - perhaps in the original history, it was Cao Hong who failed to start in advance, and was caught off guard by Lu Zhu, so he had to pinch his nose and follow Liu Xuande. However, the history books only say that Cao Bao later rebelled against Liu Bei and defected to Lü Bu, without mentioning Cao Hong, maybe he had hung up before that (for example, he died in battle when Cao Cao came).
The day before the wedding, that is, on the evening of April 14, Shi Xun had already bid farewell to Sun Qian, returned to the courtyard, just finished taking a bath, secretly used supper, asked the servant to spread out the mattress, and was about to sleep, when suddenly he heard someone knocking softly on the door. When I opened the door, the person who came was the eldest brother, holding a small cloth bag in his hand, and stuffed it into his arms: "Father asked a certain person to lend this thing to the seventh brother, and he made a candle, so take a closer look." After speaking, he turned around and left.
What does Xun Xin mean, you mysterious and embarrassed, and you don't make it clear. When he closed the door and returned to the house, he opened the cloth bag by candlelight, and found two books and a squarely folded silk silk inside. He first picked up a book and looked at the title on it, "Yin and Yang".
Ah, oh my god, this turned out to be sex education before marriage!
