Chapter 186

With great perseverance, Yuan Tan persuaded Kong Rong, the [-]th generation descendant of Kong Shengren, to acquire the eastern part of Qingzhou without bloodshed.

Speaking of which, this prestige is really prominent.

However, they were in a hurry and asked everywhere why they sent him the scissors.

Can you stop sending such dangerous items all the time?
Can't you send something else?

at the same time.

In the west of Qingzhou, the battle between Yuan Shao and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army fell into a stalemate.

There is a reason why Qingzhou is called the east of the mountain in later generations. Generally speaking, it is a topographic feature, which is very obvious in the western part of Qingzhou.

Mountainous areas in the western region account for about two-thirds.

And in the south of Jinan County is the Taishan Mountains.

The southern mountainous area of ​​Jinan has a unique geographical location. It is located in the remaining veins of Mount Tai, surrounded by mountains, criss-cross gullies, beautiful mountains and rivers, fresh air and beautiful scenery. Later generations are known as the back garden of the provincial capital.

Since the imperial court succeeded in suppressing the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the southern mountainous area has been the place where the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou sheltered from disaster.

The iron barrels Guan Hai and the others made here are like iron barrels, and they have kept the imperial army at bay for more than ten years.

Yuan Shao's siege of the Yellow Turban bandits in Jinan County went smoothly at first.

Although the Yellow Turban Army created many difficulties, Yuan Jun successfully recaptured Jinan County.

The loss of Jinan County must have dealt a severe blow to the Yellow Turban Army.

Guan Hai, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, had to retreat back to his old nest, which is in the southern mountainous area.

For more than a month, Yuan Shao launched many attacks on the mountainous area, but he didn't even open the door to enter the mountain. Yuan Jun was facing great difficulties.

this day.

at the foot of the mountain.

Yuan Jun's big camp, the Chinese army's big tent, Yuan Shao once again held a military meeting.

The staff arrived very neatly.

Two hours after the meeting, whether it was the generals Yan Liangwen Chou or Tian Fengju, the military advisers.

They have no idea how to eliminate the Yellow Turban Army in the mountainous areas.

Yuan Shao became upset as usual, and couldn't help asking others to divert his mind, "How is Lu Bu's battle in Yanzhou going?"

Tian Feng also had a splitting headache, took the opportunity to change his mind, got up and said, "My lord, now except for Chenliu County, other places have been captured by Lu Bu..."

"Also, the Taishan bandit Zang Ba took advantage of the fire to loot, but was subdued by Lv Bu. As a result, Lv Bu expanded his army and shocked Yanzhou for a while."

Yuan Shao took a sip of tea, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

You must know that Cao Cao has become Yuan Shao's old enemy since the moment he was born.

Whether it is the dandy struggle when you are young and frivolous.

It was also the robbery of meritorious service during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

It is still the current world hegemony.

And Cao Cao's advisers are like clouds, and generals are like rain.

The fight for hegemony is all about talents, and they have always been the number one enemy in Yuan Shao's heart.

Now that the enemy is in a miserable situation, Yuan Shao is of course very happy in his heart, he put down his tea bowl and sighed: "My son's strategy is mysterious, Cao Cao is running around now, it seems that the foundation is almost gone."

"Yes." Tian Feng's mood seemed to be much better, and he said again: "The eldest son did not fight the soldiers who subdued others, and peacefully subdued Kong Beihai, and the three-character scripture he wrote has now been passed on to the world and praised by the world... .”

At this moment, Yuan Shao felt a little aggrieved when he heard all the followers were praising him.

The world praises his son, so where is his place?
He was even more unhappy following Yuan Shao. With the current situation around him, his eldest son conquered Kong Rong and shocked Qingzhou.

Lv Bu's continuous battles and victories have become a real prince on the stage of the hegemony, and he has shocked the Central Plains.

And Tao Qian in Xuzhou was also relieved of the crisis, and even Liu Bei, who was in exile, got a city where he could live and live.

As for himself, although he conquered Jinan County.

But the enemy is not a rout, but a strategic shift.

It can be said that there is no merit at all.

Yuan Shao remembered at this moment that now his eldest son must be sitting high in Beihai City to enjoy the cool air, fanned by maids and praised by the common people.That little day must have been beautiful, right?

As for myself, I was suffering under the sun at the foot of this stupid mountain.

Although there is felt in the big tent, the feet are still wet.

In addition to the stinking soldiers around, there are also soldiers who smell sour and sweaty.

Being a father suffers, and being a son enjoys, this is obviously not in line with the etiquette, right?

The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more he felt wronged.

"Where is my son Yuan Tan now?" He tugged at the neckline, sat upright, and asked indifferently.

Tian Feng and the others were taken aback.I thought this is still a question?
At this time Yuan Shang stood up and said: "Father, my eldest brother is resting in Jiaodong City. I heard that there is a small banquet every three days, and a big banquet every five days. Qingzhou is a place where scholars gather. He drinks and has fun every day, composing poems and odes... …”

Everyone looked at each other, obviously, the third young master was taking the opportunity to apply eye drops to the eldest young master.

Judging by the expression on the protagonist's face, this time it was a great success again.

Yuan Tan was so happy, Yuan Shao must have felt uncomfortable, and said seriously: "Everyone, our army is exhausted from fighting for days, and it's time to rest. I plan to go to the Confucian Mansion to pay homage to the sages."

During the war, he suddenly went to worship Confucius.

is it possible?

Is it too floating?
In fact, everyone is as clear as a mirror in their hearts. Obviously, the current war is very difficult.The lord doesn't want to continue suffering here, this is to throw the blame on the eldest son.

It stands to reason that Tian Fengjushou and the others would oppose it. After all, the sudden withdrawal of the lord must have dealt a great blow to the morale of the army.

But instead of opposing it, they supported it.

Subconsciously, I feel that it is safer for the eldest son to preside over the overall situation of encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turbans.

I believe that when the soldiers heard that the eldest son is coming, their morale increased instead of diminished.

"My lord, please rest well, and since you have Qingzhou, worshiping Confucius is also a big event, you must go there yourself." Guo Tu said such words.

In his opinion, this is the first time that the eldest son leads the main force of Yuan Jun, which is a good thing.

Yuan Shao finally showed a smile.

Can Cao Cao throw the blame?

Can Liu Bei throw the blame?

Can Lu Bu shake the pot?

One by one was exhausted.

Looking at Yuan Shao, he can throw away the blame if he wants to, and he doesn't have to be blamed by his subordinates. He didn't see everyone agreeing, so he felt the benefits of having a tiger.

Only then did Yuan Shang hear that his father wanted to blame him, so he could just dump it, but couldn't he just dump it on himself?

He was still very willing to take the blame, and hurriedly said: "Father, the child is willing to stay and direct the battle..."

Unexpectedly, he was interrupted by Yuan Shao waving his hand, "Now that Kong Beihai has surrendered to my Yuan family, how can we, as members of the Yuan family, disrespect the sages? You will worship the sage Kong with me, and we will make other plans later."

Yuan Shao suddenly felt that his third son still needed to be taught, obviously he didn't figure out another meaning.

He said that while refusing to save face for the third son.

Originally, Yuan Shang had to argue with reason. After all, he had followed Yuan Shao here for a long time, so he was the most suitable candidate.But it happened that the judge had been secretly signaling him not to argue or fight against him, so he let out a sigh of relief and stopped talking.

Yuan Shang was very disappointed.

a while.

Everyone paid a big bill.

Shenpei caught up with Yuan Shang who was leaving, "Third Young Master, you only saw the brilliance of being in charge of the military, but did not see the hardships and dangers..."

"How do you say that?" Yuan Shang said listlessly.

The judge said: "The yellow turban retreated into the mountains. We have tried all the methods, and there is nothing we can do. The eldest son is here now, if he is not careful, he will fall down, right. Yuan Gong just happened to beat the eldest son and kill him sharpness."

Yuan Shang suddenly realized, you must know that now his elder brother is famous all over the world, and people say that the Yuan family all say elder brother, which made his father look very incompetent in front of the world.

It turns out that Dad still has this little thought.

Thinking about it again, the eldest brother is powerful, but here Yan Liangwen is ugly and Zhang Yun, and Tian Fengju is the judge and matcher, they are all first-class civil and military, there is nothing they can do about it.

Big brother can do it?

Certainly not possible.

His best bet is to stay put.

But standing still is also a crime of slowing down the army.

……

Three days later, Jiaodong City.

"Eldest son, a letter from the daughter of the Cai family!"

Dian Wei walked into the study.

Yuan Tan, who was on business, thumped in his heart, "Have you sent anything yet?"

"No……."

Yuan Tan breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he receive the letter.

Cai Yan expressed his apology in the letter, arguing that the gift of scissors was a moment of confusion, and it is better not to use them.

Yuan Tan was very happy in his heart, the goddess still cared about him.Let yourself use scissors, how is that possible? For the goddess, wouldn't it be self-defeating for a lifetime of happiness.

"My lord, good news!"

At this time, Guo Jia came, walking with great vigor.

"What good news?" Yuan Tan asked as he put the letter in his arms.

"Duke Yuan summons you to Jinan."

Yuan Tan rubbed his chin, "Why did my father call me at this time?"

Guo Jiadao: "I heard that although Yuan Gong captured Jinan City easily, Guan Hai's Yellow Turban Army retreated into the southern mountainous area."

"The southern mountainous area spans hundreds of miles, and its area is larger than the entire Jinan County. Guan Hai and the yellow turban thieves have lived in it for more than ten years. Survival is not a problem, and the terrain is more familiar."

"The mountainous area is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Yuan Gong and the Yellow Turban Army have been in a stalemate for more than a month without making any progress..."

After Guo Jia's analysis, Yuan Tan also learned that the Yellow Turban Army must be encircled and suppressed. If not, Qingzhou will not be peaceful at all. Instead of providing output, it will become a burden.

But if it is encircled and suppressed, it is not allowed to enter.If you are not careful, you may be counterattacked.

In fact, he handed over the hot potato to Yuan Tan.

Although Yuan Tan felt that this potato was very hot, he still planned to continue, "I heard that there is a camp of berserkers in the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou. Although the thousand berserkers don't have heavy armor, they can still fight Zhang He's battalion of euphorbia soldiers. up and down."

He naturally knew that this was the source of the famous Qingzhou soldiers in later generations.

Although the berserkers died in battle one after another in the later years, the banner of the ancestors erected inspired generations of Qingzhou Army to become the leading infantry combat unit of this era.

In fact, although Yuan Tan analyzed it to blame him, he did not analyze it a little bit.

Yuan Shao also meant to enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren. After all, this was the first time Yuan Shao handed over the command of the army to another person.
