Chapter 429: Unification of the North

In Yuan Shao's big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Wei sat in Yuan Shao's position, looked at Yuan Shao kneeling below with disdain and said, "Sit down, don't kneel, you are also a person who commands the party now, and the way you look at the moment makes me feel like a failure."

"Sinner...... Don't dare!" Yuan Shaocheng said in fear.

There was no hint of fascination in his panic at the moment, it was completely from the heart.

Receiving three bad news in one day, in an instant, his heart was like ashes, and his heart was almost broken.

He locked himself in the tent and licked his wounds for a long time, just barely gaining a little confidence to make a comeback.

But before he could do anything, his Chinese camp was breached.

Then the emperor appeared before him with a steady step.

With such a change without warning, how could he not be afraid in his heart?

"Sit aside!" Liu Wei suddenly changed color and shouted angrily.

Yuan Shao took a sneak look, and saw that the emperor's face was full of murderous anger, so he didn't dare to resist anymore, so he had to move to the side and sit down.

Although it is sitting, it can also be said to be kneeling.

"Actually, I don't know anything about it, can you tell me what happened." Liu Wei leaned on the couch and said lightly, "In the first place, why did you lead the army to flee to Jizhou, Dong Zhuo was really so terrible?"

Yuan Shao was so nervous that he couldn't remember why he had made such a choice in the first place, and he said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo...... Naturally, it was terrible, and when there was a lot of uproar in Kyoto, he insisted on leading his troops to the west despite the dissuasion of the general, which was obviously not right."

"Moreover, the general was also a little afraid of Dong Zhuo at that time, and in order to persuade his sister, he invited the princes of the Quartet to lead troops into Beijing. Such a thing seems absurd to the sinner."

Liu Wei asked, "So do you think that my little emperor is unreliable, and my indecisive maternal uncle is also unreliable, so do this?"

Yuan Shao paused, "Your Majesty, the sinner...... That's a real concern."

"If you say that, I'll barely understand you." Liu Wei said lightly.

The situation in the court after the death of Emperor Ling of Han can be said to be very chaotic.

Although Liu Wei passed that stage smoothly, even if he thinks about it today, it is easy to be confused.

At that time, the powerful Zhongchang Servant and the relatives led by He Jin, and the scholars led by Yang Biao and others were completely on opposite sides. Moreover, there is also a struggle for the throne between the two.

The eunuchs have always followed the will of Emperor Ling of Han and wanted to make Liu Xie emperor.

Even if he Liu Wei had already ascended the throne at that time, this contradiction was irreconcilable.

That is, the Empress Dowager He, who wanted to emulate the Empress Dowager of the ancients, was bewitched by a few words of rhetoric from the middle attendants.

But outside the palace, whether it was the scholar or He Jin, they were all planning to kill the eunuchs.

But He Jin couldn't help the Empress Dowager He, and he actually thought of the idea of inviting the princes of the Quartet to lead troops to help threaten the Empress Dowager He, so this stall became more and more chaotic.

In this chaotic time of change between the old and the new, the outside background is still a group of thieves and princes.

Yuan Shao hesitated and didn't trust it at the time, but Liu Wei can indeed understand it now when he thinks about it.

But it is barely understood.

"Do you know that because you led the troops to escape, I had to kill Dong Zhuo myself!" Liu Wei glanced at Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao prostrate on the ground, shouting in mourning, "The guilt of the criminal is hard to escape from his death......

"You deserve to die." Liu Wei sneered, "I can still understand the other people in the world who have betrayed the country and me, but only you and Lu Bu, the ambitions of the two of you are really so big? Don't even pay attention to my favor?"

"Minister...... Damn it!" Yuan Shao shouted.

He knew that it would be useless to say anything at this moment, and it was better to confess his guilt directly.

It's one thing to say too much.

Liu Wei laughed sneeringly, got up and walked down, holding Yuan with his hands behind his back

Shao walked around, picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine, and handed it to Yuan Shao, "Come, drink some."

Yuan Shao slowly raised his head, looked at the wine bottle in front of him, and was a little distracted for a while, "Your Majesty, but the severed head wine?"

"You can understand that way, too." Liu Wei did not deny it.

There are thousands of reasons in this world, but none of them can give Yuan Shao a way to live at this moment.

Yuan Shao took the wine bottle with both hands and drank it all.

Liu Wei poured Yuan Shao full again, but Yuan Shao was not polite, and drank it without even grabbing a word of thanks.

After drinking three bottles in a row, Yuan Shao covered the wine bottle with his hand and asked Liu Wei, "How is Your Majesty going to deal with the other princes and ...... in the world Cao Cao?"

"It depends on what they are prepared to do with me." Liu Wei said, "People will live up to me, and I will live up to the people of the world. But if they, like you, take me for a fool, and I'll punish him."

Yuan Shao smiled bitterly, "The criminal minister really deserves to die, and he has failed His Majesty's trust."

"In fact, the criminal is not smart, and he has no ability to read people, but he has only relied on a little inheritance of his ancestors to achieve what he is now."

Liu Wei nodded, "You are very self-aware."

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, and then continued: "But it is precisely because of this point that the criminal ministers understand what is hidden in the hearts of the other princes in the world. Your Majesty, there are no loyal ministers in this world!"

"You have finally told me the truth now, those who support the army and stand on their own, and watch me march in the south and north with their eyes closed, you say, can they be regarded as loyal ministers? Even the princes and kings of the former Han Dynasty are not as comfortable as they sit, are they?" Liu Wei said.

Yuan Shao shook his head ashamedly, "The guilty minister thought that he had thought about it for His Majesty when he was dying, but it seems that the criminal minister thought about it a lot, and His Majesty knew everything."

"I don't know everything, I'm just a human being, not a god!" Liu Wei brushed aside Yuan Shao's hand and poured him another wine, "This wine, you drank it for me, and it is not in vain that I once trusted you."

"Yes!" Yuan Shao drank very quickly and happily.

"All right, this wine has been drunk, and the words have been spoken, and that's all." Liu Wei put down the wine urn and walked out of Yuan Shao's Chinese army tent with his sleeves.

Outside the tent, the generals are lined up on both sides.

"See Your Majesty!"

The generals clasped their fists and curts.

"Excuse me." Liu Wei swept over the faces of those generals and said in a deep voice, "Spread the decree and announce to the world that all those who support the army and stand on their own feet in the world will be relieved of their military power from today onwards and will go to the military headquarters within ten months. Whoever does not come will be regarded as a conspiracy and shall be punished!"

「…… Yui!"

In the middle of the night, Liu Wei realized the true unification of the northern states except for Liaodong and Yecheng.

Although Cao Cao was still fighting in Qingzhou, there was only one battle left.

The victory is basically a foregone conclusion.

Next.

Yuan Shao, who was detained, was taken to Yecheng by Gao Shun to assist Gai Xun and persuade him to be demoted.

Although the war ended, the aftermath of the war was more complicated.

Liu Wei ordered the execution of Xu You and Guo Tu, two of Yuan Shao's very capable advisers, and summoned Zhang He, Gao Lan, Ju Yi and other military generals, all of whom were given official positions.

Guo Tu is a real villain, and his only way back is death.

It's Xu You's thing that is both good and evil, and Liu Wei is actually a little interested in keeping it.

However, Cao Ren, Jia Xu and others all thought that Xu Yu first sought to abolish the first emperor, and then pleaded with Yuan Shao to steal Jizhou.

Then kill, there is nothing left behind.

A few days after dealing with these people in Jizhou, Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan, who led the army south, came to Liaocheng to meet them.

The arrival of these two northern heroes, Liu Wei attached great importance to it, and all the soldiers and horses defended Liaocheng almost into an iron wall.
