Chapter 582, send troops, send troops
Why do people live?
This is a big proposition, and countless people have been discussing this question throughout the ages, and the answers are also strange. It is as if there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes www.biquge.info of a thousand people, or no two people have the same answer to this question.
People need to have hope and sustenance to live, just like the Gong Gong princes in the Han Dynasty, who have had nothing to do for several years, can only act in the circle demarcated by others, or the only driving force to support them to persist is to assist the Son of Heaven to revitalize the Han Dynasty.
If it is in Chang'an is their darkest day, then when they arrive in Jinyang, they see hope, although under Lu Bu's rule, they can not do much, but at least it is much stronger than in Chang'an, it is a place where life is in danger at every turn. Even if Lu Bu is greedy for money and profit, and has a tyrannical personality, he is not as unscrupulous as Dong Zhuo, at least he will not and dare not kill people, and he also maintains due respect for them. It can be said that compared to Chang'an, Jinyang is heaven.
Therefore, they will not and will not allow this court that has been built up with great difficulty to be paralyzed again, and whoever tries to stop it is their enemy.
So when the news of Yuan Shu's proclamation as emperor came, the most excited and angry were undoubtedly these court officials. for they will not allow others to take away their glory.
If Yuan Shu called the emperor and became the co-lord of the world, then what was the point of their persistence for so many years?
……
Jinyang Palace, the hall is extremely dull, and the atmosphere is extremely depressing. The stakes are very high, even the little emperor who was taken away by the palace maid when he showed up on weekdays stayed here, and he looked unhappy, but he didn't dare to squeak.
"Everyone, let's have an idea, this matter can't be delayed, the more it is delayed, the more it will be unfavorable to us." After a long time, Yang Biao spoke first.
"What else can I do? People have already put up a position and are openly proclaimed emperors, even if they want to calm things down, they can't recognize their regime, so where do we put ourselves? Situ Chun Yujia said.
"Rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished, what is there to discuss!" Taifu Liu Yu said angrily, "Immediately spread the word to the world, and ordered the herdsmen from all over the country to send troops to fight the thieves, so as to set the record straight." ”
"Taifu is reasonable, and the lower official is willing to personally lead the troops to crusade against the traitors." As soon as Liu Yu finished speaking, Yang Feng picked up.
He had a good plan and wanted to take the opportunity to seize the military power again. Since being robbed of military power by Lu Bu, Yang Feng's life has been very difficult, and when he sees the opportunity, he naturally wants to try.
But unfortunately, the person present, who was not a human spirit, saw through his purpose at a glance.
"Yang Shaofu (Yang Feng's new official position) is loyal and commendable, which is really a blessing for the Han Dynasty. It's just that now, we are far away in Jinyang, how can we cross thousands of miles and go to Xuzhou to crusade against the rebels? Can General Lu send a force of troops and horses to quell the rebellion? Sikong Zhang Xi asked.
"Of course, the lower officials also want to lead troops to quell the rebellion, but they are really powerless." Lu Bu, who hurried back from the front line, looked helpless, "Since last year, all the White Wave Army was driven back, and now they are becoming more and more rampant, Xihe is the place where the White Wave Army started, and it is deeply rooted here, especially Zhang Baiqi, the big leader of the White Wave Army, not to mention the strength, but also occupies the geographical advantage, and repeatedly attacks and harasses our army, if we don't put heavy troops there, I am afraid that it would have been defeated by the White Wave Army a long time ago, and now it is just hard to support." ”
"Also, when we went to Xianbei Koubian, we took the opportunity to recover Yanmen and Dingxiang, and we must also maintain a strong force, otherwise it is very likely to be gained and lost. Now in Jinyang, our troops are already stretched, and it is insufficient to protect His Majesty, so how can we send troops on an expedition. ”
"That's not easy, General Lu can transfer the soldiers and horses back!" Yang Feng said on the side. Yang Feng has always been very hostile to Lu Bu, who took away his military power, and if he hadn't listened to Chen Gong's words and taken care of the overall situation, Lu Bu would have killed him a long time ago.
"Didn't Yang Shaofu bring soldiers? Or is it just a show before, and the real commander of the army is someone else! Of course, Lu Bu was not afraid of it, "Xihe is now facing each other, how can it be so easy to withdraw the army, in case the hasty withdrawal of the army is found by the enemy, resulting in defeat, who will bear this responsibility." A failure is a trivial matter, so it delays the revitalization of Dahan, are you responsible? ”
Yang Feng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Lu Bu's gloomy gaze, he didn't say anything after all. He knew that Lu Bu was exaggerating, but even if he knew, it was okay to be embarrassed on the surface, if he really touched Lu Bu's interests, Lu Bu would never tolerate him again.
"There are also Yanmen and Dingxiang, if they don't maintain a strong military force, if they lose it again, who is responsible? If these two places are abandoned, the next time the alien race is likely to directly come to the city, with the current strength of Jinyang, it is difficult to sustain at all, do you want to let all the princes fight in person? ”
Everyone was silent, even if they knew that Lu Bu was lying, could it be that they would expose it in person? If that's the case, maybe Jinyang will directly become the second Chang'an.
"Chen Shangshu, what do you think should be done?" In the end, Yang Biao set his sights on Chen Gong.
Chen Shangshu is naturally Chen Gong, the official residence Shangshu Ling, although the status is not high, but he has the right to help the Son of Heaven deal with political affairs. Jinyang is Lu Bu's territory again, and it can be said that Chen Gong is the one who calls the shots. Although Chen Gong has always respected Yang Biao and others, these people disobeyed him, and the edict couldn't even get out of Jinyang City.
"With today's plan, it is impossible to send troops, so I can only issue an edict to reprimand Yuan Shu and order him to go and ask for guilt." What happened under Lu Bu's rule, Chen Gong knew best, even what Lu Bu said, it was also Chen Gong's instructions, "Of course, this will definitely not have an effect, what we want is this attitude, and then give an edict to all the princes, let them jointly crusade against Yuan Shu's traitors." As long as someone does it, the promotion of officials can be more generous. And the recaptured Yuan Shu territory was handed over to them for management. ”
It's not a problem to add officials to the knighthood, anyway, there is nothing to do in the imperial court now; Escrow territories are also a pretext, because otherwise, these places will not be recovered. The public present discussed it and could only agree for the time being.
"The princes are worried about disorder, Yuan Shu has been grudging everywhere for several years, and there are enemies all around, and he thinks that he will soon be able to defeat the rebels. What we have to do is not to pay attention to when Yuan Shu will be pacified, but to suppress the Baibo disaster as soon as possible, and gather the strength of the entire annexed state to go south to eliminate all the princes, so as to revitalize the Han step by step. Chen Gong finally said.
……
The imperial court's edict reprimanding Yuan Shu soon arrived in Pengcheng, which Yuan Shu was dismissive, but made people go around to publicize the rationality of his accession to the throne, which was the destiny of heaven, and then caused a round of war of words.
After Yuan Shu refused, he immediately issued an edict to all the princes, ordering them to send troops to fight against Yuan Shu.
In fact, even if there was no such order, there were people who were ready to raise troops to crusade against Yuan Shu in the name of righteousness, and this edict came at the right time.
Yuan Shao of Jizhou immediately announced his break with Yuan Shu, but unfortunately he was not the patriarch of the Yuan family, otherwise he would have been directly removed from the family tree. He told the Son of Heaven that he had no way to discipline him, admitted his mistakes, and said that he would do his best to remedy it, and after pacifying the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, he would go south to Xuzhou, arrest the traitor Yuan Shu, and send the Son of Heaven to take the blame. Then he increased his troops to Qingzhou again, wanting to quickly pacify Qingzhou and go south to fight for Xuzhou.
Liu Bei said that he would personally lead the army south and let Yuan Shao let him go along the way, but how could Yuan Shao agree. He knew that Liu Bei did it on purpose and wanted to take the opportunity to suppress his prestige, but he had to plunge into it. If his army was there, he could naturally let Liu Bei in and take the opportunity to eat his army, but now, the elites are all in Qingzhou, and he really doesn't dare.
Cao Cao was extremely excited, and immediately announced that he was already assembling troops and could kill Xuzhou at any time, but it was still unknown when he would kill him.
Liu Biao is the same, saying that he is preparing, Zhang Ji is following Liu Biao, and Sun Jian is only shouting slogans, but he has been preparing for defense.
Liu Feng was the same, after Yuan Shu became emperor, he immediately announced to the world the document of breaking off relations with Yuan Shu, and said that he would maintain the dignity of the Han court at all costs. After receiving the edict, it frequently showed the phenomenon of gathering troops.
Sending troops, sending troops, everyone is preparing, but no one knows exactly when it will take place.
Everyone is waiting for an opportunity to come. Only then will it be a situation in which the world will beg for thieves.
