The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

When Wang Fan arrived in Dongjun, he saw Cao Cao and explained his intentions. Cao Cao was overjoyed and immediately agreed to form an alliance with Chen Mai.

However, he said that the prefect of Qingzhou that Chen bought was originally Xun Zhen's favor, but he became Xun Zhen's enemy not long after he took office.

This can't be blamed on Xun Zhen's ignorance, nor can it be blamed on Chen Mai for being ungrateful.

After all, the previous union between Xun Zhen and Chen Maijian was only for their own interests. Xun Zhen wanted to use Chen Mai to help defend against Yuan Tan's occupation of Qingzhou, while Chen Mai wanted to rely on Xun Zhen's list, hoping to realize his Jingnan ambition. Since it is a combination of interests, when each other no longer needs the other, the inherent contradiction between the two sides will naturally intensify rapidly.

For a time, Chen Mai in Qingzhou in the north, Cao Cao in Dongjun in the west, Zhang Miao in Chenliu in the southwest, and Lv Bu in the south of Rushui in the south were four forces of different sizes, backgrounds, and aspirations. Tian Kai, that is the five forces, actually formed an "anti-Xun" alliance, or to be more precise, formed an "anti-Xun-Sun alliance", forming an alliance with Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou. semi-encircled situation.

It can also be seen from this that at least in the four states of Qing, Yan, Yu and Xu, Xun Zhen's strength is already the dominant one.

After making an alliance with Chen Mai, Cao Cao wrote to Chen Liu and told Zhang Miao about the matter.

After Chen Gong read the letter, he said to Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao and the others: "Chen Mai is the expression of Xun Zhen, and in the blink of an eye, he became enmity with Xun Zhen, which shows how unpopular Xun Zhen is! In Yin and other counties, our army has a very good chance of winning, but now with the addition of Chen Mai's Qingzhou soldiers to threaten Xu and the northern border of Yanzhi, our army's chance of winning is even greater!" He was full of confidence in the upcoming counter-offensive campaign.

Zhang Miao didn't have the ambition to conquer the world, he just wanted to keep his current position and power. He was hesitant to counterattack Yanzhou at first, but now that Chen Mai has joined him, he is more determined to counterattack.

He asked Chen Gong and said, "Gongtai, the Fangxia Alliance has been formed, when should our coalition launch an offensive?"

Chen Gong said: "March is coming soon. After March, it will be summer. I don't know if it will be rainy this summer. If it is rainy, the roads will be muddy, which will not be conducive to marching, and will be detrimental to our army's attack. Duke Ming, Now that the alliance has been formed, in Gong’s humble opinion, we can now make an appointment with Duke Cao and Lu Bu to launch an offensive together!”

Zhang Miao agreed and asked, "Where is the first place to launch the offensive?"

Chen Gong had already thought about it for a long time, and he said: "It is best to launch an offensive from Runan first, and attack Yingchuan County from the west of Lu Bu. Yingchuan County is the westernmost county in Yuzhou, bordering Hanoi in the north and Yin in Henan in the west. Once the county falls, Sun Jian will be cut off from Hanoi and Henan Yin. It is expected that Sun Jian will immediately rush to the aid of Yingchuan. Lu Bu is a strong general, and Sun Jian is light, and he may even lead troops to help himself. When the time is right, Duke Ming can send Chen Liu's army to advance with Duke Cao's troops and attack Jiyin together!

"At the same time, Duke Ming sent another department to attack Liang State in Yuzhou. On the one hand, he responded to Lv Bu, and on the other hand, Liang State bordered Jiyin County. If Liang State could be conquered, Duke Ming would be able to threaten Ji from the south. Yin County will greatly help our department and Duke Cao's department's offensive on the frontal battlefield of Jiyin County!"

I have to say that Chen Gong's military plan is quite good.

First, use Lü Bu to attack Yingchuan County, a place where Sun Jian must support, so as to contain the forces of Sun Jian's troops; secondly, while attacking the front of Jiyin County, attack Liang Guo, which not only responded to Lü Bu, but also formed a positive impact on Jiyin County. The offensive posture of two-sided attack.

If his plan can be successfully implemented, it will indeed cause great pressure on Jiyin County.

The urgency of the war is imminent. If we can win this battle, we will be able to achieve the first step of the lofty goal of restoring Yanzhou. Mixed together, Chen Gong couldn't sit on the table, he stood proudly in the hall with a bright look on his face.

Suddenly, Chen Gong suddenly felt that he was like Su Qin, who was matched with the six kingdoms in the Warring States Period, connecting all the countries with vertical and horizontal techniques to fight against the "violent Qin". The only difference from Su Qin is that Su Qin is for the glory and wealth, while he Chen Gong is for the public opinion of the scholars in the counties of Yanzhou.

…

Zhang Miao's letter was soon sent to Lv Bu's army.

In the letter, Zhang Miao described Chen Gong's entire strategic arrangement in detail, asked Lv Bu's opinion, and said that if Lv Bu had no objection, he could act accordingly.

After Lu Bu read the letter, he said to the generals in the hall, "These so-called scholar-bureaucrats are really full of lies!"

Wei Yue asked, "Why did Duke Ming say this?"

"Last time Miao Zhang Mengzhuo made an agreement with me, and we agreed to attack Yuzhou together..." Lü Bu got up from the table, threw Zhang Miao's letter to Wei Yue and other generals, and said, "Look at this letter from Zhang Miao. But he asked me to attack Yingchuan alone ten days later, while he led his troops to attack Jiyin."

Wei Yue and others passed on Zhang Xin.

Read them one by one.

Wei Yue said, "Didn't Zhang Miao say in his letter that he would send a faction to attack Liang, thinking that Duke Ming would respond?"

Lu Bu sneered and said with a sneer: "'Biebu', 'Biebu', since it's 'Biebu', it won't be the main force. Check Zhang Mengzhuo's letter, he asked me to send troops this time, the purpose is clearly to capture He went down to Jiyin and occupied Yanzhou; before, what he said was 'to take Yuzhou together with me, and the success of it would represent me as the prefect of Yuzhou', but now it seems that it was only to avoid being harassed by Sun Wentai in the future when he entered Jiyin. , so he used these words to deceive me, ..., what's 'laboring me to take Yingchuan in the west, he attacked Liang with other troops, thinking that I would contain the soldiers of Yuzhou', to put it bluntly, in fact, he wanted to use me to contain Sun Wentai for him. , not that he was keeping Sun Wentai in check for me!"

Wei Yue and the others thought for a while and agreed.

Wei Yue said: "So, Duke Ming doesn't need to pay attention to Zhang Mengzhuo's letter!"

Lu Bu took Zhang Miao's letter back and read it again, but he did not agree with Wei Yue's opinion and said, "No. I'd better reply to him. Not only will I reply to him, but I will also agree to his letter. request in."

Wei Yue and others were at a loss as to what Lu Bu meant.

Wei Yue asked, "Ming Gong, why is this?"

Lu Bu put on a scheming look, twisted the stiff beard under his chin, and said, "Do you still remember what I said before?"

Wei Yue said in his heart, "You talk too much."

For some reason, he didn't change his mind, and he asked this question from Lu Bu, thinking of the few words his wife said to him last night, and those words were all praises to Lu Bu. Many of the generals under Lü Bu's tent are now stationed outside. Their wives and family members are all staying in Lü Bu's camp. They are not guarded outside, or because they care about the generals. They often send people to bring them food, clothing, and daily necessities, and from time to time, they will visit their homes in person and diligently ask them about their living conditions. The wives and concubines of the generals had contacts with each other, and these things were learned by Wei Yue's wife. Because of this, Wei Yue's wife deeply felt Lv Bu's benevolence and couldn't help but complained about Wei Yue a little bit, blaming him for not understanding the style, and complimented Lv Bu unceasingly.

Wei Yue was also puzzled, how could he suddenly think of this, shook his head hurriedly, drove these distracting thoughts out, and asked, "Which sentence?"

How did Lu Bu know that Wei Yue's stomach would turn these bowels, and he followed his own words and said: "I said that those scholar-officials look down on us because of their reputation, treat us as warriors, and treat us as eagle dogs. There are soldiers on the top, but today there is a great chaos in the bottom, and the strong soldiers are the heroes, why can't we also treat them as dogs!"

Wei Yue said: "This sentence, I will remember it at the end. But, Duke Ming, how can you treat them as dogs?"

Lü Bu said: "We are all mercenary and cool people, and we are not respected by the people of Yu. If we want to stand on Yu, we cannot do it. Zhang Mengzhuo has a good reputation, and now we can use his false name to attract Yuzhou. Scholars, help me to take control of Yuzhou. This is the promise I made with Zhang Mengzhuo, but I actually used him as a dog, which is our original intention! Therefore, I will not only reply to his letter, but also Yes!"

Although Lu Bu had no self-knowledge, when he was in Chang'an, after he killed Dong Zhuo, he really thought that he would be able to take charge of the court together with Wang Yun. This is not clear of the situation, and he is arrogant and arrogant, but it is probably because of that paragraph. The experience had two big effects on him.

One is that since then, especially after he helped Yuan Shao and was almost assassinated by Yuan Shao, he began to hate the scholar-bureaucrats as if Dong Zhuo failed to win over the literati and suffered humiliation instead. One is that after killing Dong, there was a short period of time, from Wang Yun to all the officials in the court, all praised him, and all of them were "respectful and courteous". The glory lingered, and the political fantasy of "going out and entering the stage" filled his mind. In other words, since then, he has not been like Wei Yue and others, who simply regarded himself as a "warrior". It is time to embrace a certain political vision.

- These two effects on him are, in essence, contradictory.

One is distrusting and hating the scholar-officers, and the other is enjoying the feeling of being supported by the scholar-officers, but in the context of the current era, this contradiction is so natural. After all, scholar-bureaucrats have always been in control of public opinion, and they have long become synonymous with justice and cleanliness.

It has to be said that Lu Bu's "vision" is naive, but because of his vision, he is now eagerly hoping that he can make a difference in politics, so he has the "borrowing" In the name of Zhang Miao, he seeks for himself".

Wei Yue praised: "Ming Gong's plan is great!"

Lu Bu proudly grabbed his beard and said with a smile, "I'm not just doing this."

Wei Yue asked, "Dare to ask Duke Ming, what else is there?"

Lü Bu said: "Zhang Mengzhuo asked me to attack Yu, and I will forward this letter from him to Yuan Gonggong to see what Yuan Gonggong will say! I have asked him several times for food and soldiers. UU read www.uukanshu. com He pushed and dragged, and finally gave me a little bit, but it was broken. Humph! If he is like this, I can't tell, I have no choice but to abandon him, and really form an alliance with Zhang Mengzhuo and Chen Gongtai!"

Speaking of Yuan Shu, thinking of Yuan Shao, Lu Bu was quite emotional, and said sincerely, "Yuan Benchu ​​is a stingy person, Yuan Gonggong is also a stingy person, and there are no heroes at this time, but these two sons have become famous!"

He walked to the door of the hall, stroked the door frame, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, pressed his sword, and said, "Now I use Zhang Mengzhuo's name, after taking Yu, I will use this as an asset to capture the highway in the south, destroy the original beginning in the north, and take over several prefectures. The soldiers, Dongding Xu and Yan, and then welcome the Son of Heaven to return to the old capital. How can the name of Lv Bu not be placed in the history of the state? Even you, you can also be precious because of me, rich and honorable in this world, and famous for future generations. That's it!"

Wei Yue waited to look at his back, but when he saw the sun shining down, it seemed that his clothes and armor were shining, like a god, and he didn't realize his heart was broken. , pass on the name to future generations!"

Whether the name is passed on to future generations or not, Wei Yue and others, out of ten, nine don't care, but the "rich and noble in this world" is sincerely hoped for.

So Lü Bu wrote a letter to Zhang Miao, promising to send troops to Yingchuan ten days later.

At the same time, he sent the military officials to send Zhang Miao's letter to Nanyang, and met Yuan Shu in person. In the book, Lü Bu wrote: "Zhang Mengzhuo respected Bu's prestige name, and Yang Bu helped each other, took Yu and Yan together, and promised to represent the governor of Yuzhou and Bu; is Bu an unrighteous person? Although he has allowed it, he really wants to borrow his name I want to take Yuzhou for the general. However, there are not enough troops and horses, and there is a lack of food and grass. I hope the general will send one or two. When the cloth is exhausted, take Yuzhou, and Yuzhou is rich and rich, and I will pay back ten times to the general."
