The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Cao Cao passed on the book and dedicated the four strategies he came up with to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was overjoyed and took it all in.

Therefore, Zhao Qi and Zhu Jun persuaded Zhu Jun to resign as the leader of the alliance in the name of a private person; Yuan Shao wrote a secret letter and sent someone to send it to Liu Dai and Ying Shao immediately. He also sent a letter to Liu Biao and Chen Wen, and sent people to send it immediately; Zhao Qi issued an official letter, asking Liu Yu to gather troops and horses to attack Gongsun Zan's territory in Zhuo County, Youzhou, that is, Gongsun Zan's rear.

At the same time, Yuan Shao passed on Xuzhou County, responded to Xun Zhen and Sun Jian's accusations, and expressed his loyalty to the court.

Yuan Shao's biography and the above table were written by the talented Chen Lin, and the writing and momentum of the thesis were much stronger than those drafted by Chen Yi.

Chen Lin is a native of Sheyang, Guangling. Xun Zhen has taken good care of his family since he first took charge of Guangling. There are several children in his family who have served in the prefecture and county due to the liberation of Xun Zhen, Yuan Sui, Zang Hong and others in Guangling. The local literati and Chen Linduo knew each other. According to the current customs, the two became friends. It was not enough to admire each other. It was necessary to have a middleman to introduce them, so that they would not be rude. Chen Lin has forged a certain friendship, but as a minister of Yuan Shao, Chen Lin upholds the responsibility of being a minister, but she is not partial to the public.

In the table of the narration, he used sharp words and scolded Xun Zhen as "begging for food, then he became a soldier, usurped Xu and invaded Yan, and his appearance was loyal and traitor." He started his career as a patriarch and was a soldier. He pointed out that Xun Zhen made his fortune in the military, but he was just a soldier. He was impassioned and praised Yuan Shao's earlier virtues and achievements in saving the party members and exterminating eunuchs. Ji and You fought each other, presented facts and reasoned, and put the blame on Gongsun Zan, proving that Yuan Shao was forced to fight because he was forced.

The letter he wrote and the table above soon spread to Xun Zhen's case.

After Xun Zhen finished reading, he said angrily to the people, "I am not angry when Chen Kongzhang insults me. As far as the father and ancestor of my clan are concerned, are you not afraid that I will destroy the evil of the clan?"

Chen Lin not only scolded Xun Zhen, but also scolded Xun Shu, Xun Wan, Xun Shuang, etc., saying that Xun Shu "doesn't know the chapters and sentences", that Xun Qian was "awe-inspiring to the eunuch", and that Xun Shuang "Forcing the daughter to remarry", and saying that Xun Shuang "cut off the seat of Gongsha". Xun Shu "doesn't know the chapters and sentences", Xun Shu was not good at dissecting chapters and sentences, which was the fault of the vulgar Confucians at that time; Xun Qian, in order to protect the family, agreed against Tang Heng's marriage proposal for his daughter, the long-term attendant of the middle school, for Xun Yu. Xun Cai, the daughter of Xun Shuang, married the Yin clan of Nanyang. After her husband died, Xun Shuang agreed to the proposal of Yangzhai Guo clan, and planned to let Xun Cai remarry. Xun Cai did not agree and committed suicide; , of course, it is the matter that Gong Shamu and Xun Shuang cut off the relationship.

In the end, Xun Zhen himself was not actually a family member of Xun, his anger stemmed from his acquired feelings for Xun Lai and others, but Xun Yu, Xun You and other members of the Xun clan were connected to Xun Shu, Xun Wan, Xun Shuang and other bloodlines, and he was even more angry. , especially Xun Yu and others, Xun Shu is their grandfather, Xun Shuang is their father-in-law, Xun Qian is the biological father of Xun Yu's brothers, and even pure Confucians such as Xun Yue are angry for this. .

Xuzhou scholars in the prefecture and the shogunate, especially those in Guangling, were busy begging for Chen Lin.

Among the Xuzhou scholars in the shogunate, Yuan Sui, the chief historian, had the highest official position. He bowed down and said: "Chen Lin and his ministers had letters from time to time, in which there were several famous generals. , this must be heard. The Ming general's family name is Qingyuan Gaomai, and the Ming general's benevolence, morality and martial arts, who in the world does not know? Who does not know at home? Jiao, arguing against Dong Zhuo, loyalty and heroism, and serving with heroes, how can they be slandered by a mere statement and an order? Dare to ask General Ming to calm down."

Among the Xuzhou scholars in the shogunate, Zhang Zhao was the most valuable in the governance. He also left the table and bowed down, saying: "Chen Lin, a scholar, the general of Ming has the world in mind, and his ambition is all over the world, why should he be a scholar with this Care about? With a small pen, General He Ruming has 100,000 soldiers!"

Xun Zhen said: "Zhang Gongshan belongs to the article, don't you know that a slender pen is sometimes worth a hundred thousand soldiers! Why use these words to deceive me?"

Zhang Zhao was multi-talented, not only a famous Confucian, but also good at calligraphy, and good at writing, so Xun Zhen had this question. Zhang Zhao bowed down to the ground, bowed again, and then said, "I have a frank statement, I don't know if I should say it?"

"Since Yun is 'upright', why should He Yundang not say it? Please say it!"

"When General Ming scolded Yuan Shao in the table, he knew that Yuan Shao would definitely respond. Today, Chen Lin's table is exactly what Yuan Shao should do. If Duke Ming destroys the Chen Lin family, what will happen to the chief bookkeeper?"

Zhang Zhao's words are really "honest words". When you Xun Zhen scolded Yuan Shao, you should know that Yuan Shao would definitely not fail to respond. Now that Yuan Shao's response has come, why are you so angry? Chen Lin's family is in Guangling, of course they can exterminate their clan, but don't forget, Chen Yi's family is in Wei County, which is Yuan Shao's territory, Yuan Shao will definitely exterminate the Chen Yi clan, thinking that Chen Lin will take revenge.

Xun Zhen's anger did not subside, and he said bitterly: "I scolded Yuan Benchu, only one of them, but Wei Zeng and his father and grandfather!" He thought, "What Zhang Gong said is not bad, Chen Yi and Handan Rong are many people. Befriend them, they are all from Jizhou, and most of their families are in Zhao and Wei. Sooner or later, I will fight against Yuan Benchu. If this is the case, the Chen Yi family will be destroyed, or Ji Shi will be worried about the safety of his own family. Divorce from me." Turning to Chen Yi, the governor of the prefecture sitting in the hall, he said, "Forget it, for the sake of my governor, please spare the Chen Kongzhang family."

When Xun Zhen was furious, Chen Yi was worried that Xun Zhen would really destroy Chen Lin's clan, causing his clan in Wei County to be slaughtered by Yuan Shao. Hearing Xun Zhen's words at this time, he saw that Xun Zhen endured for himself. The father and the ancestor of the lower family were humiliated, and they were moved, and they bowed down and thanked them.

Xun Zhen asked him to get up and return to the table, and invited Zhang Zhao and Yuan Sui to return to their seats. He closed his eyes for a moment, his mood calmed down a little, and said to himself, "Destroying Chen Kongzhang's clan may cause Ji Shi and me to have a rift, and not destroy their clan. And don’t make Wenruo, Gongda, etc. hold grudges because of this.” He opened his eyes and turned to Xun Yue, Xun Yu, Xun You and other people from the Xun clan who were sitting, and said, “What Zhang Gong said is also very true, Chen Kongzhang’s table is the true version. The original intention was that although the humiliation of our fathers and ancestors was not for family affairs, but for military and national affairs. When it comes to the future, I will repay this hatred on the battlefield."

Xun Yue and others were not mediocre people, they knew what Xun Zhen said was right, so they all endured their hatred and anger, and bowed down and said yes.

Xun Zhen also instructed Zhang Zhao, "Please, in the name of the prefecture, give Chen Kongzhang's family fifty stones of fine grain." Since he could not destroy the Chen Lin family, he would instead take the opportunity to show his mind, which would make Xuzhou scholars even more Devotion to oneself also reassures the children of the Chen family who are officials in the prefecture and county. He still felt resentment in his heart and thought, "Chen Kongzhang's son, he likes to scold people for three generations as soon as he swears, what a shrewd woman!"

Xun Zhen remembered that in the original history, Chen Lin served Yuan Shao as an escort, and scolded Cao Cao for three generations.

Xun You remonstrated and said, "Instead of sending food, how about sending pen, ink, paper and inkstone?"

If you send a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the direction is more clear, and it can more directly show that Xun Zhen is because of "love Chen Lin's literary talent", and instead of blaming the Chen family, he rewarded him. Xun Zhen immediately understood what Xun You meant, and said, "Just follow your words." She said to Zhang Zhao, "Choose some good study utensils from the treasury and send them to the Chen family."

Zhang Zhao agreed.

As the mastermind, Xi Zhicai was sitting by himself, and he saw that Xun Zhen, Xun Yu, Xun You and others were still holding grudges, and now, in order to divert their attention and change the subject, he said: "Three appearances have been completed, and the momentum has been established. General Sun also sent troops out of Henan the day before yesterday and arrived in Zhongmou. General, I don't know when my state plans to start?" He was asking Xun Zhen when he planned to attack Mount Tai~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Xun Zhen asked Yuan Sui, Chen Qun, etc.: "Are you ready for the chorus, the servants, and the food?"

Yuan Sui replied: "The Fu army has arrived in Hexiang, and the second lieutenant of Sun and Wu, and the Zuo army have also arrived in Dongguan, and they can be found at any time. Now there are a total of 5,000 servants in Hexiang and Dongguan. Make."

Chen Qun replied: "At present, the grain and equipment transported to Hexiang and Dongguan can be used by 10,000 people for half a year, and the follow-up is still under preparation."

The Fu army was Zang Ba, the general of the Fu army; the second captains of Sun and Wu were Sun Guan and Wu Dun; the Zuo army was Chen Wu, the captain of the Zuo army.

This time to take Mount Tai, Xun Zhen decided to use the troops from Mount Tai as the main force. Most of them were natives of Mount Tai, familiar with the terrain and people. Taishan soldiers mainly.

There are more than 3,000 soldiers in Zang Ba's army, and there are more than 1,000 in Sun and Wu's army. These are more than 5,000 soldiers. Together with Chen Wu's army, there are more than 7,000 soldiers and horses in total. In addition, 500 soldiers are transferred from Xin Ai's cavalry. Riding, also joined the battle, there are nearly 8,000 cavalry, almost enough.

In terms of generals and advisors, Xun Zhen intended to use Xun as the master, Zang Ba as the auxiliary, and sent Guo Jia and Xu Shu as the masters, with Gao Tanglong as the assistant, and Yang Cong as the main writer. Gaotanglong and Yang Cong were both from the Taishan nobility, and would play a certain role in recruiting surrender and accepting rebels.

Now that the soldiers and horses, servants, and supplies have been assembled, and Yuan Shao's reply has been made, Xun Zhen ordered: "Today, I will send a message to Mount Tai, and I will tell you that our army wants to use Mount Tai to enter the plain. County, stop the conflict between You and Ji." He also ordered, "Send Xu Wentai and tell him that our army will enter Taishan tomorrow, and let him choose Hanoi when he chooses." He also ordered the shogunate, "Strictly supervise the movements of Yanzhou. , and ordered Chen Bao and Jiang Hu to be **** the wall, and if Yanzhou was helping Mount Tai, they would block it."

Everyone in the hall got up, went down to the hall, and said, "No."
