Chapter 144: Surrender Gongsun Zhan
"Ding! Whether to accept Liu Bian's reward for the prime minister's official position! ”
"Accept!"
"Ding! Congratulations on getting the official position of prime minister, do you want to open the government and seal the official? ”
"No!"
"Ding! Do you follow the name of the Han Dynasty? ”
"Yes!"
......
Lu Chen set all the details after the establishment of the regime, as for what Liu Wei thought, he didn't pay attention to it, this place is different from Chang'an, and there are no other officials in the entire court.
And after the establishment of the regime.
The military generals from all sides also came to vote, which was exactly why Fu Zhu and others suggested that Lu Chen go to Luoyang and easily take Liu Bian, the young emperor of the Han Dynasty who was abandoned at any time, away from Luoyang, and also prepared to establish a new regime in Shengle in the name of Liu Bian when the imperial court changed.
In this way, it will not be attacked by other princes, but also in the name of revitalizing the Han family, recruiting good ministers and fierce generals, and now Shengle can occupy the top three positions among the major princes in terms of people's livelihood and combat power.
The power of the princes is the strongest with Liu Chan, whether it is in terms of population, grain and grass, or the number of players who take refuge, it is far more prosperous than the other princes.
The second is Cao Cao's power.
Wenchen military generals are second only to Liu Chan's regime, however, in addition to the slight shortage of grain and grass, the number of players is also the second, the number of players to take refuge in about 90 million, in six years of development, Cao Cao's army completely overshadowed Liu Chan, the total strength of about 260,000.
Lu Chen's Shengle, the grain and grass are the most sufficient, the armament is the strongest, and the war horse is second only to Liangzhou, and the reason why it can only be ranked third is completely because of the military generals of Wenchen, and the number of troops is two major shortcomings, and now there are only two strategists, Tian Chou, compared to Cao Cao, Liu Chan, Sun Quan, etc., it is indeed far from enough, and the generals are even more, and there are only Xu Rong, Tian Yu, Gao Shun, Yan Rou, Yang Feng, there is no top general, compared to Liu Chan who is due to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong and other top generals, Lu Chen's match is completely unavailable.
The number of troops was only about the same as that of second-rate princes such as Ma Teng, and except for special troops, there were only 110,000 standing troops, which were limited to the number of people.
Demographic issues.
With Liu Chan's Yizhou and Jingzhou, the population of NPC alone is as high as 12 million, and the number of players who have taken refuge in Liu Chan is also as high as more than 120 million, and the number of their conscripts is only limited by the salary of war horses, armaments, salaries, etc., but the population is absolutely sufficient, and the number of Liu Chan's army is now as high as 240,000.
The number of players in Lu Chen's refuge is only 13,000.
These are the old, weak, sick and disabled who have no power to act, you must know that even the smallest county guard Han Sui has 9 million players to take refuge, not to mention other princes.
Shengle is simply the only thing that players dislike.
Merely.
Lu Chen will not relax the conscription system because he wants players to settle in, because many players are unwilling to just be ordinary people, what they want is to find an opportunity to occupy a wall and a city, and even achieve princes and dominate the world.
And Shengledu's conscription system completely shattered their hopes.
The only fortunate thing is that the players did not use the resources in their hands to support Cao Cao, Liu Chan, Sun Quan and others, otherwise it would not be possible to only have only 200,000 troops.
This situation is also something that Lu Chen had predicted.
The practice of establishing a political regime is also to make up for the shortcomings of talents from non-NPC forces.
Three days later.
After the establishment of the regime, the refuge of celebrities and celebrities has increased significantly, and only low-level celebrities have taken refuge before, but now there have been some famous celebrities to vote.
Lu Chen handed over these things to Tian Chou to receive.
Celebrities and scholars began to start as petty officials, and set up a set of meritorious reward system, non-special celebrities all started from petty officials, regardless of their background, all must follow this system.
Inside the Shengle Palace.
It was Tian Zhong who came to report below: "Lord! Information from Chang'an City! Liangzhou Ma Teng and Zhang Xiu came to help, and Li Long sent Zhang Xiu to defeat Zhang Fei in Chencang. ”
Lu Chen was a little incredulously surprised: "Zhang Fei lost? ”
Tian Zhong handed over the letterhead and replied, "Yes! Zhang Fei has returned to Hanzhong! ”
When Lu Chen read the content of the letterhead, he suddenly couldn't understand it, it stands to reason that with Zhang Fei's force and Zhuge Liang's resourcefulness, there should be no problem in fighting Zhang Xiu, besides, there is Cao Cao's 50,000 army to attack Hangu Pass, unless.
"How is Cao Cao's situation at Hangu Pass?"
Tian Zhong suddenly replied: "Ma Teng fought against Cao Cao's army, and his son Ma Chao bravely crowned the three armies, beating Cao Cao's army to the ground, and Hangu Pass was as stable as Mount Tai, and now Cao Cao's army has retreated ten miles!" ”
"Both armies lost?"
"Yes!"
Lu Chen exclaimed, "How is it possible? Is Li Long's army so strong? ”
Tian Zhong nodded and explained, "I heard that there are also clans who are assisting in the defense of Chang'an City this time!" Now Chang'an City has more than 700,000 troops! The army attacking Chang'an can't pick up a bargain now! ”
Only then did Lu Chen understand that after Li Long was replaced by Dong Zhuo, he adopted different methods, and the family's attitude towards him was naturally different, and now in order to prevent the imperial court from becoming a tool of control again, they also had to fight against Liu Cao's army together.
But.
Cao Cao was defeated, I don't know if Lu Bu has captured Yuzhou now?
He asked, "How is Lu Bu now?" ”
Tian Zhong immediately replied: "Qingzhou and Yanzhou have been brought under the jurisdiction of Lu Bu, but he did not directly attack Yuzhou and Jizhou at this time, but stationed in the two places, and it seems that he is also waiting for the situation in Chang'an to change!" ”
Await?
Those who should come are coming!
"It seems that this crusade is inevitable!"
Tian Chou stood up at this time and said, "The lord is right! Now whether it is fighting for Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty or for Chang'an City, this battle must be lost. ”
Lu Chen nodded and ordered: "In the name of the canonization of Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, summon Gongsun Zan to enter Shengle Capital!" It's time for Youzhou to take it back, either surrender to me or kill him! ”
Tian Zhong nodded and replied, "Yes!" Lord! ”
"That's right! Inquire about Zhao Yun's whereabouts first! If this person can collect it, he must accept it! If you meet an official position in the name of Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, let him come to Shengle as a general! ”
"Zhao Yun?"
"At this time, it should be under Gongsun Zhan!"
"Yes! Lord! ”
Tian Zhong and Tian Chou left, and Lu Chen secretly laughed, thinking that he could now issue a holy decree to order others, and he felt a sense of pride in his heart.
"Since you don't come to take refuge! Can't you rob it openly? Hehe! ”
He naturally didn't know that now Gongsun Zhan had decided to fight to the death, as a prince, how could he surrender to a stranger, thinking that Lu Chen was just a player who asked him for a task, and now he actually began to force himself to surrender.
How could the arrogance in Gongsun Zhan's heart succumb!
He shouted angrily, "Kill! My grandson Bogui and Su Xiaochen swear not to stand apart! ”
Gongsun Yue below immediately persuaded: "Big brother! How are we going to fight Su Xiaochen now? After we were defeated by Yuan Shao last time, now the total number of troops is only 30,000, if Su Xiaochen really rushes to kill them all, we are afraid that we will not even have a place to live! ”
Gongsun Chan burst out angrily and said, "Hmph! I don't believe him, Su Xiaochen dares to force my Gongsun Zan to give in, and he can't do it! If he really dares to kill me completely, I don't mind uniting with Yuan Shao to kill Sheng Le Du and kill that rebellious minister and thief! ”
Seeing that Gongsun Chan was still angry, Gongsun Yue immediately patiently persuaded: "Big brother, don't be impulsive!" Yuan Shao's wolf ambition is no less than Cao Cao's, if we unite with him, wouldn't we send sheep into the tiger's mouth! ”
What kind of person is Yuan Shao, Gongsun Chan naturally understands that the Yuan family, as the biggest supporter of the family, has the connections to dominate the world, if Yuan Shao solves the rear of Youzhou, then how can Youzhou have a place for his Gongsun Zhan.
You must know that Youzhou itself is the rear of Jizhou.
Gongsun Yue's words, Gongsun Chan also understood.
"So what?"
Seeing that Gongsun Chan had finally calmed down, Gongsun Yue suddenly came up with an idea: "Big brother! We can actually pretend to surrender to Su Xiaochen, as long as he doesn't take away our military power, we definitely have a chance to turn over again! ”
Gongsun Zhan shook his head and asked, "Su Xiaochen even dared to take the emperor away, what else did he dare not do, would he be merciful to us?" ”
Gongsun Yue said with a smile: "Big brother, Su Xiaochen dares to do more than that, you know, the original Emperor Han Ling was also killed by him, and now Liliu argues that the emperor is just hoping that someone will take refuge in him, but this is an opportunity!" I dare to guarantee that Su Xiaochen will never dare to withdraw our military power! ”
"Why?"
Gongsun Yue didn't explain, but said with a smile: "Big brother! Although he accepted the will of Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, he ordered the envoys to go to the Shengle Palace! This follow-up will be taken care of by my brother! I dare to guarantee that within three months, Su Xiaochen will definitely send the eldest brother back safe and sound! ”
The more Gongsun Chan listened, the more vague he became: "Huh? ”
Gongsun Yue leaned into Gongsun Zhan's ear and smiled and whispered, "Hehe! Eldest brother! All you have to do is ......"
I saw Gongsun Zhan's face turn from worry to joy.
"Good! That's it! ”
Just three days later.
Gongsun Zhan strangely agreed to the canonization of Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty, and ordered the envoys to go to the Shengle Palace, after the incident, Lu Chen was suddenly full of doubts.
Because the official position given to Gongsun Chan is not the official of a great general.
It's just a vacant position for a lieutenant general.
"Zitai! Gongsun Bokyu: Why is this? Is it really a surrender to us? ”
Tian Chou said at this time: "Gongsun Bogui is a proud general, his surrender, the lord needs to be careful!" ”
Lu Chen naturally knew that Gongsun Zan in history had no record of surrendering, and he didn't believe that the princes who shouted that they were not me, and their hearts would surrender to him so easily.
Although now he has no way out!
Originally, Lu Chen planned to send troops to directly exterminate him, even if he united with Yuan Shao, he would not be afraid of him, but Gongsun Chan suddenly agreed to surrender, which was a kind of hurried move.
Fu Zhu said at this time: "My lord, I heard that Gongsun Chan came to Shengle with great fanfare this time, I am afraid that this is Gongsun Chan's intention, and this surrender may have become Gongsun Chan's life talisman." ”
Lu Chen was puzzled: "Gonghe is saying that Gongsun Chan came prepared?" ”
