What the hell is Dong Zhuo going to do?!

This is something that all the princes of the world want to know.

Although what Dong Zhuo wanted to do, perhaps the princes of the whole world had already guessed.

Isn't that exactly the "lie" they used to propagate over and over again?

Now that the "lie" has really become a fact a thousand times, what kind of expression should they show at this time?

I'm afraid the least likely thing is that faint smile......

Isn't this a cheat!

So how should we deal with this cheating situation?

Liu Yu: "Resolutely oppose Dong Zhuo, a traitor surnamed Liu, to be the king!" ”

Yuan Shao: "The strongest protest against Dong Zhuo, a traitor surnamed Liu, is king!" ”

Gongsun Zhan: "Strongly protest against the fact that Dong Zhuo, a traitor surnamed Liu, is king!" ”

Liu Biao: "Protest against Dong Zhuo, a traitor who is not my surname Liu, being called king!" ”

Yuan Shu: "Give the strongest protest to the traitor Dong Zhuo's move to claim the king!" ”

Cao Cao: "Strongly protest against the traitor Dong Zhuo's move to claim the king!" ”

Tao Qian: "Solemnly protest against the traitor Dong Zhuo's move to claim the king!" ”

Liu Yan: "Strongly condemn the traitor Dong Zhuo's move to claim the king!" ”

Li Shushi: "I am strictly concerned about Dong Zhuo's move to claim the title of king, and will pay close attention to the future situation!" ”

Bian Zhang & Ma Teng: "I regret Dong Zhuo's move to claim the throne and will pay close attention to the exhibition of future events!" ”

And then?

Yuan Shao is still pinching with Gongsun Zan in the east of Jizhou, but this time Liu Yu can no longer be the black hand behind the scenes, because not only Yuan Shao has already shown the clues of Liu Yu's actions and deduced Liu Yu's style of acting. On the other side, Gongsun Chan was also completely disappointed in Liu Yu because of the strange appearance of Karasuma Captain Xing Ju.

After all, if it weren't for Gongsun Zhan's release, it would be impossible to rely on Xing Ju's ability to let a force of more than 7,000 people travel in an unfamiliar place without being exposed, and the fundamental reason why Gongsun Chan made such a bold decision was that he still maintained a relatively tacit relationship with Liu Yu behind Xing Ju at this time.

But who knew that it was such an army, even if it was not reported by Gongsun Zhan, after all, Xing Ju's ability was much worse than that of his predecessor Gongqi, and if it was put on the battlefield of Gongsun Zhan and Yuan Shao's duel, at most it would be a soy sauce and wave the flag and shout, and he also needed to worry that the army would be regarded as a breakthrough by the enemy and become the culprit of his own defeat, so he actually stood up at a critical moment.

In a position that Gongsun Chan did not expect at all.

Although this was an order issued by Xing Ju, with Gongsun Zhan's understanding of that incompetent guy, if the cautious Xing Ju was not controlled by someone behind him, he would not dare to touch Gongsun Zhan's tiger whiskers if he was given 12,000 ambitious leopard guts.

So it's clear why it's so tough.

Of course, this is not the place that makes Gongsun Chan the most angry.

The saddest thing for Gongsun Chan is. Even so. He still couldn't make a move, because in such a war result, if he lost Liu Yu's support in politics, Gongsun Zhan, who didn't take much advantage but suffered huge losses, was definitely not the opponent of Yuan Shao's side, which was far from breaking his muscles and bones.

Even if it weren't for Liu Yu's planning, there were many local powerful joint rebellions in Anping, Qinghe and Julu, which involved Yuan Shao's energy and troops. It is impossible for Gongsun Chan to have the time to lick the wound and settle the rear.

After all, no matter how useless the remnants of the Youzhou Yellow Turban are. Having an excellent wise man like Yuan Fang in the middle of the dispatch will also make people scratch their heads incomparably.

Of course. Perhaps neither Liu Yu nor Gongsun Zan would have thought that those rebellions were originally expected by Yuan Shao, although Yuan Shao's side could not accurately predict that those heroes would participate in the rebellion. However, Yuan Shao's side, which had been prepared for a long time, was taking advantage of this rare opportunity to purge some of the weak-willed elements within the party, so as to improve the cohesion of his own forces.

As for Gongsun Chan, who is the biggest enemy in front of him?

In this big chess game of Yuan Shao's plan for the world, Gongsun Chan obviously can't occupy too important a position.

Such a conclusion is not that Yuan Shao is arrogant or contemptuous of his opponent, but that he has come to it after thinking calmly.

Yuan Shao believes that he will not make the same mistakes he has made in the next exhibition.

And such a Yuan Shao is undoubtedly very terrifying, far beyond what Gongsun Chan imagined.

However, just as Yuan Shao did not regard Gongsun Chan as the biggest obstacle to his success, he was the most feared opponent...... I'm sorry, it's not our Li Shushi's children's shoes, but the only half-brother Yuan Shu Yuan Highway who has suppressed him from time to time since he was a child.

Don't look at our Yuan Shu children's shoes in the war with Liu Biao after breaking Sun Jian and then collapsed, so far has lost several battles in a row, seeing that Wancheng, which is also the core of Yuan Shu's rule in Nanyang, has been crumbling under the persecution of Liu Biao, but this guy still has the trouble of finding his brother, and this time the trouble made Yuan Shao have a headache again.

"I'm xx you oo Tao Gongzu, you don't nest in your one acre and three points of land in Xuzhou, why did you participate in the war between our old Yuan brothers, did you eat a bear heart or a leopard gall!"

That being said, Yuan Shao knew very well that the enemy Yuan Shu found for him this time was much more tricky than Gongsun Zhan.

After all, although the soldiers under the command of Gongsun Chan are elite, their strategic depth is limited; Second, they have not made much progress in internal affairs, and cannot withstand wars such as protracted wars and tug-of-wars that test their logistical capabilities. Third, the talents under his command are limited, and after a big war, even the military talents have withered a lot. It can be said that except for Gongsun Zhan's personal war command ability, which can be ranked in the middle and upper level among the princes of the Three Kingdoms, the rest are basically in a state of being completely exploded by Yuan Shao.

As long as Yuan Shao pinched Gongsun Zhan's lifeblood and used his strategy, Gongsun Zhan's downfall was only a matter of time for Yuan Shao.

But Tao Qian is different.

Xuzhou can be said to be a relatively lightly affected place in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and at the same time has fertile land and abundant products, especially the wealth brought by sea salt, which makes people envy and hate. Although Tao Qian's men are capable of fighting, they are slightly inferior to their grandsons. However, the strength of the Danyang soldiers is definitely worthy of their reputation, especially the elite troops of Yuan Shaojun's army, who have returned from the northwest and focused their skills on how to deal with cavalry, and deal with troops like Danyang soldiers with outstanding infantry combat ability and good at bows and crossbows......

This is a bit mysterious.

Not to mention that Tao Qian's reputation in Shilin is far from being comparable to Li Shushi and Dong Zhuo, as a celebrity who has experienced the disaster of the party, Tao Qian's appeal and skill, as well as the old spice tempered by the years, allow him to calmly mobilize any force - up to the powerful family in Xuzhou, down to those Yellow Turban remnants of Taishan bandits, all of which are flexible chess pieces in Tao Qian's hands.

It can be said that if it weren't for Tao Qian's age that made him at a stage where he could ascend to heaven at any time, perhaps the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who were fighting to the death at this time, would definitely join forces to destroy Dong after courting him, instead of competing to win over hope for their own use now.

Well. People who believe that Tao Qian is a good man will definitely die a miserable death. It's like an old man with a black skin who is about to rush to the underworld.

As for the remaining princes, large and small, they are either busy waging wars with the surrounding forces, or busy farming and cultivating people, and are no longer busy with large and small purges. The sky is so high. The emperor is so far away. The one born in Chang'an is just an after-dinner conversation for them, they can't see such a distant future, and sorting out the current entanglement of interests has exhausted all their mental strength.

Perhaps, from a certain point of view, even guys like Li Shushi and Cao Cao are in such a state.

"The heavens are dead. Huang Tian should stand! ”

At the foot of a certain mountain, the flag is flying, the shouting is like thunder, and the army gathered at the foot of the mountain is densely packed and endless, and there are hundreds of thousands of them. Everyone is wrapped in a yellow scarf on their heads, and looking at it from a distance gives people the illusion of falling into the yellow sand desert.

"Inherit the legacy of the great virtuous and good teacher, and a certain class must overthrow the tyranny, return peace to the world, and promote the spirit of the heavenly master!"

The person who shouted this sentence was called Zhang Baiqi, a mysterious figure who suddenly appeared in the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army a few months ago, and he claimed to be the personal disciple of the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao, who had been lurking since the failure of the uprising.

Although his statements sound full of loopholes, and even the name he claims to have no such person at all, Yu Poison, Yang Feng, Zheng Gu, and Ma Cao, who are the high-level leaders of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, accepted his statement as if Qi Qi had been illuminated by the NC halo and respected him as the nominal commander, known as "General Pingtian".

After that, there was a lot of planning and contact, so that the total number of various forces involved in this "second uprising" has reached hundreds of thousands, and the areas affected by it are all over the Central Plains.

The sudden outbreak of chaos in several states such as Ji, Yanqing, Henan, and Xu Jingyang really caught the princes in their areas off guard.

The Yellow Turban Army troops of these uprisings and rebellions were more than 100,000 or as few as thousands, although most of them were old and weak, women and children, but even if those princes were able to extinguish the local rebellion, after losing so many people, the blow to the local economy was unprecedented, not to mention that the war had a great impact on economic production.

Under the combined action of the two sides, the economy, which had just recovered after the Yellow Turban Uprising, suffered an unprecedented heavy blow, and in the foreseeable three to five years, without the support of external forces, the local economy and production would be absolutely difficult to recover, if not paralyzed, by relying solely on its own ability to restore blood.

As the hinterland of the Central Plains, Yanyu Erzhou, because of the land reform policy that Li Shushi once implemented, there were many people involved in this turmoil, and these displaced people who obtained land because of Li Shushi but lost their land because of the return to their hometowns have almost irreconcilable contradictions with the local landlords.

Although Li Shushi has long been away from this land of right and wrong, and he has turned this turmoil into a bargaining chip in his favor because of the situation, but even so, he does not dare to say that he has controlled this turmoil, because the forces contained in it are complex and variable, enough to discourage everyone, so Li Shushi has to take advantage of this turmoil while spending a lot of energy to prevent possible changes that may be unfavorable to himself.

And Cao Cao, who had just served as the Taishou of Jiyin County, but had to be involved in this big storm, had to devote himself to it in order to keep his easy-to-get foundation.

The situation of the other princes is also about the same, so a few protests against Dong Zhuo's claim to the king are already considered the limit.

In fact, this incident caused waves. Basically, he didn't get out of Chang'an City, which was only a palm-sized place for the entire Han Dynasty - at most, it was only the land of Sanqin west of Tongguan and Wuguan.

And the most intense reaction is naturally those courtiers who claim to be "loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty" and the Xiliang athletes under Dong Zhuo.

"Wen You, you said that since Lord Xiangguo has already been crowned king, when will he be called emperor? I've long seen that the baby emperor and the group of old guys who have nothing to do are unpleasant, or our boss is more suitable to sit on the throne of this emperor. ”

"Yes, Wenyou, didn't the boss promise to establish a kingdom of Xiliang people when he left Luoyang? Although this sounds good to be the king of Qin, but after all, he is still controlled by others, and he is still at ease when he is the emperor, so that no one can ride on the head of our Xiliang people, and this whole world is the emperor of Dong Boss I, Guo Aduo, am willing to say the word 'service'. ”

"Lao Guo is right. For that day, we were born and died for decades. Why do you have to listen to the chirping of those rotten people. What were they doing when we were fighting knives, except for drinking flower wine, they were deducting most of our already small food and rewards, and such a court should have been gone a long time ago. The living and dead brothers can't wait. ”

Heard the news that Dong Zhuo was king. The Xiliang Army, which was originally a little deflated because it had stabilized, regained its vitality and motivation. In addition to once again frantically uniting around Dong Zhuo, they are also crazy about a better tomorrow.

Even Dong Zhuo never clearly said what action he would take next.

But no one can misunderstand the political signal behind his move to claim the throne.

After all, since the Han Dynasty, there are only those founding heroes and Zhulu relatives in the early Han Dynasty, and among these people, in addition to the political zhì line has always been extremely correct, and the Changsha King Wu Rui and his family have lived to the time of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. The rest can be said to be a bad death, and there is only one reason for them to be like this, and that is - rebellion.

As the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and the Duke of Qin, Dong Zhuo can already be regarded as a supreme minister, but he is not satisfied, and raises his title up a notch, although he does not immediately replace Liu Xie as the emperor, but the taste has been fully revealed.

And those ministers of the DPRK and China, who had previously fantasized about gradually replacing Dong Zhuo by assimilation, were even more beaten by this ironic move, and the sound of this snapping was really resounding in the sky.

But who's to tell them to do it this way?

After all, except for Lu Zhi, these people have almost no military power in their hands.

"It seems that our previous plan has completely failed, Dong Thief's ambition can be said to be obvious, originally I thought of using his hand to cut off those half-hearted rebels before making a move, but now it seems that the most important thing to eliminate is Dong Thief himself!"

"Alas...... I originally thought that Dong Thief just wanted to become a powerful minister like Li Si and General Bahu. I was wrong, I was really wrong. ”

"Zigan doesn't need to blame himself, why haven't we ever thought like you. What's more, now is not the time to think about it. ”

"That's right, it's time to make a decision!"

"What does Liu Junlang say over there?"

"Liu Junlang's eldest son, Liu Fan and Uncle Liu, have already assured me that they will fully cooperate with our operation, and the personnel and equipment we need have already been secretly in place, as long as they give an order, they will definitely surprise Dong Thief."

"What is Li Shushi's reaction in Bingzhou, the relationship between him and Dong Thief is the most unclear among the princes."

"His Majesty has prepared a secret decree to crusade against Dong thieves for this matter, although Li Xue has a close relationship with Dong thief, but finally did not live up to the kindness of the first emperor to him, after receiving the secret decree, he secretly ordered Shangjun Taishou Zhang Yantun to be in the south of Diaoyin and only a few miles away from Zuo Feng Yi, Hedong Taishou Zhang Xiutun in the southeast of the river Dayin Ferry, and the Hun captain to lead Zhaotun in Pubanjin, Hedong, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can contain or cut off the Xiliang army reinforcements at any time, or support the battle that Chang'an may have."

"I heard that Zhang Xiu, the Taishou of Hedong, is the nephew of Zhang Ji, the general under Dong Thief, will there be a danger of leaking the news?"

"Don't worry about this, although that Zhang Xiu is the nephew of the traitor Zhang Ji, he is also Tong Feiteng's personal disciple. And I believe that with His Majesty's secret decree, even if it is to rebel against that Zhang Ji, it is not impossible. It's just that I don't want to have more rights and wrongs, especially because I am afraid that my majesty will be hurt, so I give up. ”

"It's better to be careful. Although there are many people in the Xiliang Army who are as righteous as Fu Nanrong, most people still regard Dong Thief as a god. ”

"So what should we do with the secret letter of Xiliangbian Zhang and Ma Teng? These two people can also be regarded as powerful generals under the command of Dong Thief, if they can really become our help, they will be a little more sure of success. ”

"These two traitors are capricious, even if there are letters as proof, they should not be gullible, be careful of deception!"

"Master Zi thinks this is a means for Dong thieves to test us?"

"Although I can't be sure, the cunning of Dong Thief and Li Wenyou, who is in cahoots with his wolf, is really unguardable."

It's just that if you refuse bluntly and are afraid of chilling the hearts of the two, what if the two of them are really sincere for the country? After all, the two of them had a lot of helplessness from thieves before, and even if there was no Dong thief, those scheming princes had to guard against it, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that there would be no second and third Dong thieves ......"

"Shisun Junrong's concern is not unreasonable, so it is good to appease him, but remember not to reveal the news."

"No problem."

"So the last two questions!"

Seeing that after some discussion, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee, who were already quite confident, Wang Yun still stretched out two fingers with a solemn face.

"First, Dong Thief has high martial arts skills, and often has more than 100 guards around him, how can he kill Dong Thief in the shortest possible time so as to stabilize the situation in Chang'an to deal with the crazy counterattack of the Xiliang Army.

Second, Li Wenyou is a wise and resourceful man, and he is of great help to Dong Thief. Dong Thief is cunning but after all, it is only a Wufuer, as long as there is no Li Wenyou, it will be much easier for us to design only for Dong Thief. So, how to transfer Li Wenyou away from Dong Thief? ”

All of a sudden, the ministers who were still elated just now became gloomy and gloomy at this moment.

Until, a young voice rang out. (To be continued......)
