The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

When Yan Rou heard Su Puyan's words, she was taken aback and said, "Didn't I discuss it before, and have already decided not to join forces with Yuan Benchu? At that time, the adults and others also agreed, but why did Gongyu propose it at this time? Why did you join forces with Yuan Benchu ​​to attack Gongsun Zan?"

Su Puyan said: "At this moment, at that moment. At that time, we really agreed not to join forces with Yuan Benchu, but the current situation has changed. Gongsun Zan was unstoppable, and Duke Yan was defeated by him, and Lu County also suffered because of it. Lost, then in this case, if Gongsun Zan takes advantage of the victory and continues to go north, just like what you just said, Lord Yan, he is rewarding the three armies and may come back to attack our army at any time. How will our coalition cope with that? At this moment, Yuan Benchu ​​cannot help me to defeat Gongsun Zan. Therefore, I think that the only option is to invite Yuan Benchu ​​to join forces! If we do not join forces with Benchu ​​and fight against Gongsun Zan, our allied army will only be defeated. , I thought it was my previous opinion, it's better for everyone to break up and go back to the valley and run for their lives."

Yan Rou turned her eyes to Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin who were doing it, and asked, "Xian Yujun, what do you mean?"

Xian Yufu unconsciously remembered last night.

Just last night, Guo Xun visited him and showed him a letter written by Yuan Shao.

In the letter, Yuan Shao promised Xian Yufu, and after defeating Gongsun Zan, not only the Youzhou prefectures, but Suixian Yufu would choose, he was willing to represent the emperor and appoint him to be the prefect; and Yuan Shao was also willing to represent the emperor and Liu Liu. And Ren Youzhou governor.

In another letter, Yuan Shao wrote: "Although the Duke's virtue is more important than the secluded, the Xiaowu is not as good as Yan Rou, even if he defeats Gongsun Zan, can the Duke save himself, can he control Rou? Rou, Su Puyan, etc., are they easy to be defeated? Shao is a public concern, and for today's plan, it is appropriate to combine with Ji, and if they are combined, they will benefit both, and they will defeat Gongsun Zan. This is one of them. With my help, the feet are soft, these are the two. If you don't follow Shao's plan, Zan will be hard to defeat, and if you are soft, you will be another Zan!"

The implication is that Yan Rou may become the second Gongsun Zan.

The fate of Liu Yu may also be the fate of Xian Yufu in the future.

This makes some sense.

In terms of their origins and abilities, Xian Yufu and Liu Yu are indeed the same people. In terms of identity, he has never dealt with the children of the gentry, and the people who are close to him are all small people in the market. That is to say, Gongsun Zan is actually similar to Yan Rou. In this way, suggesting that Yan Rou may become another Gongsun Zan is not without purpose.

Yuan Shao's letter was recalled in Xian Yufu's mind.

Xian Yufu hesitated for a while and said, "The current situation is indeed different from before. If you ask Yuan Gong to help, our army may have a better chance of defeating Gongsun Zan."

——When Liu Yu was alive, Xian Yufu was quite wary of Yuan Shao's involvement in Youzhou. However, time has changed, and today is different. Liu Yu is dead, Youzhou no longer has heavyweights, and there is no longer anyone who can compete with Yuan Shao. If the character is in the position, then he can only change his attitude for his own interests or to eliminate Gongsun Zan, which is probably "resilient at any time".

Yan Rou was dumbfounded.

Their army was originally a coalition army, and the army consisted of three parts, one part was the Wuhuan and Xianbei cavalry of the tribe brought by Su Puyan and others, and the other part was led by Xianyufu, Xianyuyin, and Weitun. The remnants of the Youzhou Prefecture Army, and another part is Yan Rou's own part. Although Yan Rou has both the prestige among the Hu people and the dual identities of the Han people, he has been supported by Su Puyan and Xian Yufu. On major issues, he had to be respected, and he even said he would obey the opinions of Su Puyan, Xian Yufu and others.

Now, Su Puyan and Xian Yufu have agreed to join forces with Yuan Shao, and Yan Rou has nothing to do.

He was silent for a long time, then said: "Since the Duke and the others are willing to join forces with Duke Yuan, then let's follow the advice of the Duke."

They invited Guo Xun and told Guo Xun the opinions of everyone.

At this time, Guo Xun didn't need to hide from Yan Rou anymore, so he called the messenger sent by Yuan Shao, sent Yuan Shaoyuan back to Liu He, sent troops to help Yan Rou, etc. to discuss Gongsun Zan and all of them. Know with Yan Rou.

Only then did Yan Rou understand why Su Puyan and Xian Yufu changed their minds!

After some discussions, it was decided that Xian Yufu and Su Puyan would personally go south to Jizhou to meet Liu He and discuss with Yuan Shao about attacking Gongsun Zan.

So on this very day, Su Puyan and Xian Yufu led more than 7,000 cavalry of Hu cavalry, left the station, went west first, then went south, bypassed Zhuo County, went to Jizhou, and went to meet Liu He; Yan Rou led the main force temporarily. Retreat north, retreat into the upper valley.

...

Lema is on the grassland in Shanggu County, surrounded by endless grasslands.

Blue sky and white clouds, with eagles flying in the distance.

It was originally an open atmosphere, but Yan Rou's mood was quite depressed.

Looking back to the south, it was the direction Su Puyan and Xian Yufu were heading to Jizhou, and he sighed involuntarily.

Left and right asked, "Why is Gongyuan sighing?"

Yan Rou said: "Everyone says, Yan Zhao is a lot of generous and sad people, and I am a desolate and majestic hero, but now I am full of ten counties in Youzhou, and there are millions of Han and Hu, and there is not a single hero! Su Puyan and Xian Yufu is now heading south to welcome Yuan Shao's troops north, and I will be lost."

The world is in chaos. The princes are fighting each other, and Yan Rou regards herself as a hero. How can he not be ready to move? He originally wanted to seize the opportunity of Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu's rivalry. Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Zan, which aroused the indignation of the local people in Youzhou.

My dear, this chapter is not over, and there is another page ^0^ I have achieved a great career in Youzhou, but the situation is inexorable. In the end, I can only succumb to the opinions of Xian Yufu and Su Puyan, and I can only accept Yuan Shao. help. In the final analysis, in terms of identity and reputation, Yan Roufei is a scholar-bureaucrat. No matter how brave he is, no matter how loyal he is, he is still inferior to Yuan Shao, who came out of the Yuan family of Runan.

...

On Gongsun Zan's side, as Yan Rou expected, the reason why he rewarded the three armies was that he was preparing to send troops northward, and then attack Yan Rou and other coalition forces, trying to defeat them in one fell swoop.

But at this time, I got news that Su Puyan, Xian Yufu and others led more than 7,000 cavalry and went south to Jizhou to meet Liu He.

Gongsun Zan immediately anticipated that this must be Yan Rou and the others planning to join forces with Yuan Shao to fight him, so at this time, it was no longer important to discuss Yan Rou, and the key issue was to prepare for Yuan Shao's attack first.

Moreover, Yan Rou's troops had already retreated north and headed towards Shanggu. After he retreated into the grassland, it would not be conducive to Gongsun Zan's pursuit of them, so Gongsun also withdrew his troops and returned to Zhuo County, no longer chasing and retreating. The Yan Rou Department.

Back in Zhuo County, Gongsun Zan couldn't help scolding Xian Yufu and so on when talking with the other two righteous brothers Li Yizi and Le Hedang who stayed in Zhuo about why he had retreated from the army and returned to Zhuo.

He said: "Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Gongguang brothers, although they are of famous ethnic origin, are actually traitors in China! The two of them detained Liu He one after another, and Yuan Benchu ​​has been watching me for a long time. It stands to reason that they should be Liu Yu's enemies. Yes! Xian Yufu's younger generation, under the banner of Liu Yu's revenge, but now he wants to join forces with Yuan Shao to attack me! He is from Youzhou, but he leads Jizhou soldiers to invade, his elbows turn outward without saying a word , he is worthy of his old master, and he keeps saying that he will avenge him. Is it Liu Yu?"

Li Yizi comforted him and said: "If Xianyu Fu is usually like this, either he just sits and talks clearly, or he is just sane, eldest brother, you don't know, why are you angry about this? Since Xian Yufu has gone south to Jizhou, then Quyi The troops may come to invade the territory soon, in my humble opinion, preparing for battle as soon as possible is the most important thing at the moment, and the rest will not need to be discussed for the time being.”

Gongsun Zan snorted and said, "A little Quyi, can it be possible that he can break through my Zhuo County?"

Liu Weitai touched the goatee's beard and smiled: "'Yan Nanchui, Zhao Beiji, the central disagreement is as big as a fork, and only there can be escaped from the world'. Zhuo County Yijing is a place to escape from the world, not to mention one koji, ten koji Righteousness is invincible!"

Le Hedang said: "Brother, just relying on Quyi, it is of course difficult to break my Zhuo County, but Yuan Benchu ​​has a strong army and horses, once he joins forces with Yan Rou and others, and the north and south invade me, I am afraid that it will also be After a hard battle, the foolish brother has a plan, which may be able to deal with it."

"What is it?"

"If Xian Yufu can find foreign aid, we can too!"

Gongsun Zan asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Fang today, only Xun Zhendong can resist Yuan Shao. Yan and Qingzhou are now occupied by Xun Zhendong. Why don't you send an envoy, prepare generous gifts, go to Zhendong, and make an alliance with him? Zhendong is there. Qing and Yan are keeping Yuan Shao in check, and Quyi is nothing to worry about!"

Gongsun Zan hesitated, and after a while, he said, "I have sent an envoy to see Xun Zhenzhi long ago, but you don't know that he refuses to make an alliance with me, what can I do?"

"Zhendong may have misunderstood the eldest brother, ... eldest brother, Liu Xuande, made old friends because of the eldest brother. He used to treat the eldest brother with great respect, and the idiot heard about it. Love, the two are like brothers, eldest brother, would you like to give him a letter and ask him to make a turn for the eldest brother in the middle, I wonder if the eldest brother thinks it is okay?"

Gongsun Zan pondered for a moment and said, "You can give it a try."

- Speaking of which, don't say a word. Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei knew each other because both of them had studied under Zheng Xuan, and Gongsun Zan believed in prophecy, as in the saying "Yan Nanchui, Zhao Beiji, the central government is as big as a fork, the only one that can escape the world", in fact And Zheng Xuan is also related. As a contemporary master of classics, Zheng Xuan has been greatly influenced by Confucianism since this dynasty. The exegesis he made for "Shangshu" is to integrate modern, ancient and ancient texts into one, and Shenwei has become a bridge between modern and ancient texts. . That is to say, Gongsun Zan's belief in prophecy, apart from the influence of the times, was actually influenced by Zheng Xuan in some respects.

Although Gongsun Zan did not believe that Quyi could capture his Zhuo County due to the existence of this prophecy, Gongsun Zan did not dare to take it lightly due to the defeat of the former Youjieqiao, so he passed down a military order and ordered the soldiers of the battalions on the front to prepare for the battle.

He personally wrote a letter and sent someone to Yingchuan to meet Liu Bei face to face.

...

Xian Yufu and Su Puyan led their cavalry to the south and traveled for more than half a month. On this day, they arrived at Wei County and came to the outside of Ye County.

Yuan Shao greeted him when he heard the news, and they met each other and exchanged ceremonies.

For three consecutive days, Yuan Shao arranged a banquet for Xian Yufu and Su Puyan.

During these three days, Yuan Shao asked Xian Yufu and Su Puyan about the current situation in Youzhou in detail. Xian Yufu, Su Puyan answered truthfully to him. To welcome Liu He and return to You, to reassure the people and ask Yuan Shao to send troops to help fight Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao readily agreed to both.

That afternoon, Yuan Shao invited Liu He to meet him.

In the majestic and solemn hall, the two sides of the hall were filled with civil servants and generals under Yuan Shao's tent; soldiers stood outside the hall with weapons.

Yuan Shao, dressed in majestic clothes, sat in the main seat, and said to Liu He: "Liu Youzhou's name of benevolence and righteousness is well known in the world. Ever since he was murdered by Gongsun Zan, I have always been very sad. Xian Yufu, Su Puyan, Yan Rou, etc. joined the rebel army to beg for Zan, and asked me to send troops to help. I have agreed to their request. In two days, you can follow Xian Yujing to return to Youzhou. Come to You After the state, ... Liu Jun, don't forget my kindness to you."

Dear, this chapter is not over, there is still another page ^0^ Liu He bowed down and said, "The kindness of Gong to He, how can He dare to forget!"

How could Yuan Shao have any kindness to Liu He, Liu He only complained to Yuan Shao.

However, Liu He is not a fool, and he complained so much that he dared not mention it.

Thinking that Liu He was born in a clan, and his clan background was different from Liu Bei's, it was a world apart from Liu Bei. Because of his background and his father's fame, he grew up with smooth sailing and never had a meal. No matter what the hardships, being an official in the capital is also smooth sailing. No matter who sees him, even if he is the son of the present day or a powerful minister in the court, he will always respect himself. , sneaked out of Chang'an, went to Youzhou to see his father and asked for help, but on the way was detained by Yuan Shu of Nanyang, and then detained by Yuan Shao of Jizhou. .

Of course, this suffering and this setback are not suffering and setbacks in living conditions.

Whether Yuan Shu or Yuan Shao, treat him very well in terms of daily food, accommodation, and even the servant girl who serves him. This setback refers to psychological setback; pain also refers to psychological pain. .

He could see clearly, what kind of background, what kind of aristocracy, in this chaotic world, but it is not as good as having soldiers in hand, with soldiers, you can speak with authority, without soldiers, no matter how good your background is, what about the emperor? The same sigh of relief. There is no difference at all between traitors and loyal ministers. Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Li Jue and Guo Si are the same in today's view.

Liu Hean made up his mind that when he returned to Youzhou, he would learn from Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, and he would borrow Chongxian Yufu, Yan Rou, Su Puyan, etc., and become a local hero. ——This is his idea, can it be done? Another matter.

Yuan Shao said: "When you return to Youzhou, you should prepare for battle first. I have made an appointment with Xianyufu and Su Puyan. After a month, you will go down from Shanggu north to attack Zhuo County, and I will send troops to attack from the south of Jizhou. Zhuo County, let’s attack from the north and south, this time, we must capture Gongsun Zan and kill him, avenge your father, and let the people live in Youzhou!”

Liu He went down to worship in the hall and said, "If you can capture and kill Gongsun Zan and avenge your late father, Duke Ming's kindness will be repaid with the title."

A few days later, Liu He followed Xian Yufu and Su Puyan back to Youzhou.

Yuan Shao sent an order to Qu Yi, who was stationed in the south of Zhuo County, and told him to get ready.

Not long after the military order came out, Guo Tu asked to see Yuan Shao.

...

Hearing that Guo Tu wanted to see him, Yuan Shao called him to see him.

Entering the hall, Guo Tu bowed down to the ground and said loudly, "Congratulations to Duke Ming, hexi to Duke Ming!"

Yuan Shao was surprised and asked, "Why are you happy?"

Guo Tu said: "My enemy of Ji is Xun Zhenzhi in the east, Zhang Feiyan in the west, Gongsun Zan in the north, especially Zan is a serious concern for Duke Ming! Today Duke Ming will attack Xian Yufu, Su Puyan, Yan Rou and others together. Gongsun Zan is sure to win the battle. When Gongsun Zan is defeated, it will not only eliminate this serious problem for Duke Ming, but Xianyu Fu and Yan Rou are all nameless and incompetent. How can they compare with Duke Ming? Youzhou must also be owned by Duke Ming. Yes. In Youzhou, Duke Ming's strength will be greatly enhanced, so I want to congratulate Duke Ming and Duke Ming Hexi."

Yuan Shao smiled and said, "Gongsun Zan should not be taken lightly, even if I join forces with Yan Rou, Xian Yufu, and Su Puyan's house, it may not be easy to destroy them. This battle will not be fought in a day or two. It's over. When will I destroy Gongsun Zan, the day when Youzhou is truly owned by me, it's not too late for you to congratulate me."

Guo Tu replied, "Yes."

Yuan Shao asked him to get up, and Guo Tu got up and took his seat.

His own maid brought hot soup~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Guo Tu picked up the jade bowl, took a sip, put the bowl down, and said, "There is one more thing in the picture, congratulations to Duke Ming and Duke Hexi."

Yuan Shao said, "What's the matter?"

Guo Tu said: "I heard that Cao Mengde and Zhang Feiyan kept in private correspondence with Zhang Feiyan in Bingzhou. Re-existing, and a little business, Bingzhou will also be acquired by Ming Gong! Therefore, Tutu once again congratulates Ming Gong and Hexi Ming Gong."

Yuan Shao frowned and said, "Meng De had a close correspondence with Zhang Feiyan in Bingzhou?"

"Yes, Duke Ming."

Yuan Shao asked, "Gongze, who did you hear about this?"

"It turns out that Duke Ming still doesn't know? This is what I just found out."

Yuan Shao asked, "How did you know?"

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
