Chapter 251: A thief's heart does not die
Hanoi, Yuan Shao's camp, Yuan Shao sat on the main seat with a blue face, he really didn't expect Wei Xuan to push the boat down the river, and he was appointed as the captain of Sili and led Henan Yin, which had a great impact on Yuan Shao, but Wei Xuan changed hands to show Sun Jian as the assassin of Yuzhou, Yuan Shao's expectation that Wei Xuan defeated Kong Ling to seize Yuzhou is also acceptable, although Yuan Shao is ambitious, he always has to take it step by step, and then try to plot the Central Plains when he stabilizes the north.
Now Wei Xuan and Sun Jian divide Yuzhou equally, so that the military strength of Yuzhou is the two strongest people today except for Dong Zhuo. And the alliance between the two men is now solid.
Yuan Shao thought about it carefully, Wei Xuan became the captain of Si Li, and naturally he couldn't manage Chang'an and Hongnong, but he could justifiably include Hedong under his jurisdiction, and even give orders to Hanoi, although he didn't have to worry about Wang Kuang's loyalty, but the name of this era is still very important. Even Wei Xuan may make others the captain of Hanoi in the future, thinking of this, Yuan Shao regretted a little that Wei Xuan was the captain of Si Li.
What made Yuan Shao even more angry was that Wei Xuan was ashamed to let Cao ???????????????? Cao brought a letter, so he borrowed 500,000 stones from the coalition army to borrow 500,000 stones from the coalition army because he needed to appease and help the 400,000 victims in Henan, clean up the Luoyang mess, and fill up the imperial tomb that was stolen by Dong Zhuo's army. Yuan Shao thought that he was thick-skinned enough, but he didn't expect this Wei Xuan to be so shameless, it was obvious that it was impossible to continue the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and the coalition would not exist, and few people really cared about the alliance on weekdays, and now Wei Xuan himself got the dilapidated Henan Yin who couldn't afford to raise soldiers, just like asking others to ask for it.
After Guo Tu read Wei Xuan's handwritten letter to Yuan Shao, he also sneered again and again: "Duke Ming, Wei Xuan is shameless and occupies Yingchuan, and now he actually wants to occupy Sili again, and he still wants Duke Ming and others to raise food for him." Ming Gong can categorically refuse. ”
Yuan Shao's face was stunned, and he said in his heart, is it that simple? When he was in distress, Xu You got up from his seat and said: "Duke Ming, Wei Zhongdao stretched out his hand to ask for 500,000 stones of grain to help the victims and fill up the imperial mausoleum, Duke Ming can excuse himself, but he must give a little, otherwise it will damage the prestige of Duke Ming." After all, relief for the victims and filling in the imperial tomb occupy the righteousness. ”
Hearing this, Chun Yuqiong and the others nodded again and again, Yuan Shao could pretend to be dead and not march to attack Dong Zhuo, but he couldn't ignore the imperial mausoleum that was dug up by Dong Zhuo, and he couldn't ignore the hundreds of thousands of Henan victims who were harmed by Dong Zhuo.
Yuan Shao asked, "Then how much should I give out in my far-sighted opinion?" ”
Xu You glanced at Guo Tu and said, "10,000 stone is enough, of course, Han Wenjie and Gongsun Bogui should also pay 10,000 each." It is not easy to give him 30,000 stone of grain from a large angle, and Wei Zhongdao is not good at asking Ming Gong again, and it is not good to talk nonsense to people in the world. ”
Yuan Shao nodded, although 30,000 grains were a little unwilling, but it was just a drop in the bucket for the now devastated Henan Yin. However, Yuan Shao was still very unhappy, because everyone was playing politics, Yuan Shao guessed that Wei Xuan might not be able to help the victims when he got the food, so he turned to look at Guo Tu and asked: "Gongzhi, so cheap Wei Zhongdao, is there a good way to restrict Wei Zhongdao?" ”
Hearing this, Xu You and the others showed a trace of worry on their faces, the previous praise of Wei Xuan and Sun Jian had actually made the two of them hold a grudge, and now Jizhou is undecided, and the lord is thinking about provoking Wei Xuan, is this preparing to break up completely? Glancing at Guo Tu again, he arched his hand at Yuan Shao and said: "Duke Ming, Wei Zhongdao is trying to find a way to restrict it, but not now, now Wei Zhongdao has just defeated Dong Zhuo to occupy Luoyang, and Ming Gong Jizhou is undecided, if it annoys Wei Zhongdao, it may cause extraneous branches." ”
Yuan Shao was silent, he felt that the scholars seemed to be more optimistic about Wei Xuan now, and Wei Xuan's wolf ambition had also been exposed, and he didn't want to find a way to restrict it. However, what Xu You said also makes some sense, after all, Wei Xuan has just defeated Dong Zhuo, and he has already made a move against Wei Xuan, although it is on the surface to commend Wei Xuan's merits and praise him as the captain of Si Li, but ordinary people will understand it after a little thought, and those who don't understand will also understand it when Wei Xuan praises Sun Jian as the assassin of Yuzhou.
After thinking about it, Yuan Shao said: "Ziyuan, it is still necessary to prevent trouble before it happens, as long as I don't wait to sell it directly to deal with Zhongdao." There are a lot of things that can be done by people. ”
】
Guo Tu was different, he was overjoyed when he heard Yuan Shao say this, and after pondering for a while, he said aloud: "Duke Ming, the Southern Xiongnu Yufuluo Department???????????????? Earlier, he was invited by the imperial court to participate in the pacification of Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion, but Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were jointly pacified by several parties, but there was civil strife in the Southern Xiongnu, and now Yu Fu Luo is wandering in the Fen River valley and has a home that can not be returned. At that time, Wei Xuan will definitely be in a hurry, if Yu Fuluo completely disrupts or even occupies Hedong, Wei Xuan's plan to use Henan Yin to connect Hedong and Yingchuan will be completely frustrated. ”
Hearing that many people changed color, Yuan Shao also looked at Guo Tu hesitantly: "This ......"
Xu You and the others also glanced at Guo Tu with dissatisfaction and said eagerly: "Ming Gong's move must not be, Yu Fu Luo is a foreign clan, Wei Zhongdao is not much of a threat to Ming Gong at present Even if he is hostile in front of the Liang army, he must not pull foreign clans, otherwise how do you talk about Ming Gong?" Yu Fuluo's wolf ambition, once entrenched in the east of the river, he will definitely peep into the interior and even go east, Ming Gong. ”
Hearing this, Yuan Shao hesitated again, of course he knew that Guo Tu's method was actually good, Yu Fuluo now has nearly 4,000 cavalry, this is a force to be reckoned with, and 4,007 soldiers entering Hedong will definitely be able to disrupt Wei Xuan's rear. This external force cannot be used by itself, and sooner or later it will be used by others. It's just that Guo Tu shouldn't say it in public, and he should make up his mind to make suggestions.
So Yuan Shao waved his hand to let everyone go down first, leaving Guo Tu alone to continue to discuss, and finally Guo Tu even volunteered to go to Yu Fuluo to lobby in person, Guo Tu believed that with the prestige of Yuan Shao's fourth and third princes and the identity of the Eighteenth Route Alliance, he would definitely be able to persuade Yu Fuluo to join Yuan Shao. For example, supporting him to restore the country, such as supporting grain and grass, etc., are all empty promises anyway, and Yuan Shao does not need to pay any price at all.
Just when Yuan Shao was trying to restrain Wei Xuan, Wei Xuan made another move, and a few days after Cao Cao and Zhang Yang arrived near Luoyang with their troops, Wei Xuan once again praised Cao Cao as the Taishou of Dongjun and Zhang Yang as the Taishou of Shangdang. This made Yuan Shao not calm again. Although Cao Cao is nominally an allied army, he relies on Yuan Shao to a large extent, and Yuan Shao has always regarded Cao Cao as his younger brother, and it should be him Yuan Shao to show up, the reason is that Cao Cao does not have his own territory. But Wei Xuan knew that Cao Cao was not a person who was willing to condescend to others, he used to be willing to be Yuan Shao's younger brother because the court was still in the court, and now the court is controlled by Dong Zhuo, a corner of peace, and the chaos in the world is unavoidable, of course Cao Cao wants to do it himself, but there was Kong Ling in Yuzhou before, and now there is Sun Jian, Yuan Shao just wants to take her to Jizhou to join Chun Yuqiong and others as a general under his command. Liu Dai and others calculated Qiao Mao, but Yuan Shao didn't think of letting Cao Cao take over. After the Eighteenth Route Coalition Army dispersed, they went back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, and it was impossible for Cao Cao, the chainsaw captain, to go to Chang'an to find Dong Zhuo.
When Cao Cao heard that the Yuan Shao brothers had successively promoted Wei Xuan and Sun Jian as the lieutenants of Sili and Zhijinwu, they were extremely angry and scolded the erector for his lack of strategy. But he had to rely on Yuan Shao, and now Wei Xuan gave him a chance, although he may still be controlled by Yuan Shao for a long time in the future, it is better than being homeless.
Originally, a younger brother under his command was suddenly lifted up and began to fly solo, Yuan Shao must be unhappy in his heart, and he should come to calculate that he should come to show it. But it can only be acquiesced, if you refuse, it means that you will turn against Wei Xuan and Cao Cao at the same time???????????????? This was something Yuan Shao could not do, because he still needed to maintain relations with Cao Cao before taking Jizhou, and hoped to ease the relationship between himself and Wei Xuan through Cao Cao.
As for Zhang Yang, Yuan Shao had previously promoted him as the Taishou of the Shangdang, and he was also called so in the letter of the Ming League of the Invitation. But now Wei Xuan's expression of Zhang Yang is justified, Shangdang is a mountainous area, and the impact on Yuan Shao is not great, but what Yuan Shao doesn't know is that Wei Xuan has promised that after stabilizing the situation in Henan Yin, Yang Feng will lead troops to assist Zhang Yang to completely control the Shangdang.
In fact, Wei Xuan wanted to leave Cao Cao in Luoyang and Liu Bei, but he also knew that it was impossible, judging from the fact that Cao Cao already had his own territory and was working against Yuan Shao, his ambition was also great.
Looking at a Yuzhou assassin Shi, an Dongjun Taishou and another Sima, Wei Xuan suddenly had a bad idea, if he did Sun Jian, Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time in Luoyang, wouldn't there be no Three Kingdoms, and after thinking about it, without these people, there would be Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, Tao Qian and so on.
Seeing that Sun Jian and Cao Cao have a home, Liu Bei is not calm, he is now Sima of another department, and Wei Xuan also made it clear before that he can leave at any time. He followed Wei Xuan to make meritorious contributions, and he could become a colonel and lieutenant general sooner or later, but Liu Bei's ambition began to sprout, and he also wanted to be independent like Sun Jian and Cao Cao.
He knew that the territory controlled by Wei Xuan was limited now, Hedong and Yingchuan were both large counties and were Wei Xuan's basic territory, and Yin Weixuan in Henan was to be used to garrison troops and link Hedong and Yingchuan. After thinking about it, if you want to go out or become independent, you can only find a way from Yuzhou.
Most of the generals under Wei Xuan knew about Wei Xuan and Sun Jian's division of the universe, and after thinking about it, Liu Bei went to Sun Jian first, and proposed that he could take a county or several counties from Yuzhou to garrison troops. Sun Jian provided him with two places and the state of Chen and the state of Lu. Liu Bei thought about it and felt that King Chen was too strong, and Chen Guo was too close to Yingchuan, so he wanted to choose Lu Guo.
However, both of them knew that this had to be agreed to by Wei Xuan, otherwise the original allies and subordinates would become hostile.
