Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 359 Finally You Can Start a War

In the original history of the Three Kingdoms, there were several reasons why Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor.

On the one hand, he is selfish. He thinks that Yuan's surname comes from Chen, and Chen is the successor of Shun. As for himself, Yuan Shu had already had some small thoughts in his heart.

Especially after getting the jade seal from Sun Ce, Yuan Shu felt that his destiny belonged to him, so he had the inner desire to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

However, on the other hand, it was also because of Yuan Shu's strength and the territory he controlled at that time that he had the reliance to proclaim himself emperor in the Han Dynasty. In the original history, Yuan Shu was also considered to dominate the southern land at this time. The external conditions for Yuan Shu to proclaim himself emperor.

If it weren't for Zhu Wei's sudden birth, Yuan Shu should be based on both sides of the Huaihe River. After assigning Sun Ce to sweep Jiangdong, he would have a stable foundation in the south. In the east, it occupies part of Guangling County and Xiapi County in Xuzhou, and in the west is Jiangxia County next to Liu Biao. Yuan Shu's forces can be regarded as spanning the 3 counties of Yang, Henan, and Xuzhou.

In addition, Yuan Shu inherited the family background of the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family, and there are old disciples of the Yuan family all over the world, even the Yellow Turban bandits in Yuzhou, the Heishan bandits in Yizhou, and the Baibo bandits who held Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty before have all turned to Yuan Shu. intention.

Even Lu Bu, who occupied Xuzhou, actually intended to befriend Yuan Shu. He had planned to marry his daughter to Yuan Shu's son, so Yuan Shu's situation when he proclaimed himself emperor could really be regarded as the overlord with strong power in the south.

At this time, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was coerced by Cao Cao to Xudu again, and became Cao Cao's puppet to control the world. Yuan Shu and Cao Cao's territory were adjacent, so Yuan Shu was naturally jealous of Cao Cao, so Cao Cao used the name of the emperor to restrain him.

It can be said that this is also one of the reasons that contributed to Yuan Shu's proclaiming himself emperor. Yuan Shu just didn't want to be restrained by Emperor Xian of Han controlled by Cao Cao, so he simply proclaimed himself emperor.

It's just that Yuan Shu didn't expect Sun Ce to be a [-]-year-old boy who used his own power to conquer Jiangdong, but after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he took the opportunity to separate from Yuan Shu to rule Jiangdong and stand on his own.

In addition, Yuan Shu faced Cao Cao, a tycoon at that time, and Cao Cao defeated his main army in one battle. After that, he encountered drought and famine. It was an unfavorable fate, and the weather was unfavorable, causing the people under his rule to be displaced and the soldiers under his command to be displaced. It was only because of the betrayal and alienation that such a huge foundation was lost in such a short period of time.

Of course, this is also the situation in the original history, but now Yuan Shu's situation is that Jiangdong is still in Liu Yao's hands, but other aspects are similar to the original history.

Without the land of Jiangdong, Yuan Shu may have lacked some confidence to claim the title of emperor in history at first.

However, as Cao Cao suppressed Yuan Shu again and again with the name of the emperor, Yuan Shu still couldn't help it. It was only two months later than the original history, and he still proclaimed himself emperor at the risk of the world.

It can be said that the more incentive for Yuan Shu to proclaim the emperor is the pressure that Cao Cao put on him by coercing the emperor.

This made Yuan Shu have to have the same status as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in order to continue to compete with Cao Cao for the land of Xuzhou and Yuzhou. Otherwise, he was overwhelmed by Cao Cao with the title of emperor, how could he compete with Cao Cao for the territory.

Of course, the titles that Yuan Shu sent to the princes all over the world after he proclaimed himself emperor were naturally discarded like garbage. At this time, no one would respond to Yuan Shu, the rebel who tore the face of the Liu family in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Even though the Eastern Han royal family has been regarded as a puppet controlled by Cao Cao by many local separatist warlords, the Liu family is still royal orthodox in the eyes of the common people all over the world, and it is still what people want.

So, taking advantage of Yuan Shu's crazy move, Sun Ce, who was lurking in Guangling County, was the first to raise the banner of breaking away from Yuan Shu, showing his own banner.

And Cao Cao spread the name of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to the world, calling Yuan Shu a traitor, and the world can discuss it together.

For Cao Cao, this is also an opportunity for him to eliminate the threat from the south. After all, Yuan Shu in the south and Yuan Shao in the north made Cao Cao feel like a knife was on his head, but now Yuan Shu is looking for death by himself. As long as Yuan Shu is dealt with, he can concentrate on dealing with Yuan Shao in the north. up.

However, Cao Cao used the name of the Son of Heaven to preach against rebellion, and warlords from all over the world naturally couldn't oppose it publicly, so the local bigwigs at the Muzhou level, such as Yuan Shao in the north, Liu Yao in Jiangdong, Liu Zhang in Yizhou, and Liu Biao in Jingzhou, naturally responded one after another. .

Local warlords like Zhu Wei and other large and small warlords responded one after another, expressing their loyalty to Han Xiandi, even if they waited and watched the situation without expressing their views, they would not pay attention to Yuan Shu.

However, even if warlords from all over the world responded to the so-called emperor's call, they did not take any further action afterwards.

After all, this is no longer the year when Dong Zhuo was crusaded at the beginning. Nowadays, all parts of the world are basically divided by different forces. If you lead troops to fight Yuan Shu, what will happen to your own territory?
It is very likely that as soon as you leave, other forces will happily invade your territory.

In addition, if you lead troops to fight Yuan Shu, do you want to pass through the territories occupied by other forces? Then what is this?

To be honest, at this time the warlords in the world are basically vassals who ruled over one place. How can they really fight for the emperor's order? Besides, everyone knows that the so-called emperor's order is actually Cao Cao's meaning, so why listen to Cao Cao?

So everyone is just talking loudly, but in fact they still do their own things, or think about what benefits they can take the opportunity to reap.

For example, on Zhu Wei's side, they can finally let go of their hands and feet again and start a war with the outside world.

After Zhu Wei got the news that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss the next strategy. After all, Zhu Wei was next to Yuan Shu. If he really wanted to respond to the imperial court's call, he could send troops to attack directly. Yuan Shu's.

However, Zhu Wei still wants to fight Liu Biao now, and after he has dealt with Liu Biao, he will consider whether he can also gain some benefits from Yuan Shu's side.

Zhu Wei had already had his troops repaired for half a year. Gan Ning's Jiangjiao Battalion in Yuzhang had completed training, and Pang Yan's Xiongba Battalion, as the main force, was longing for war.

Zhu Wei has merged the [-] cavalry that originally belonged to the Central Army Battalion into the Xiongba Battalion, and let Teng Yuyan, as the cavalry commander, also go to the Xiongba Battalion on duty, so that Pang Yan and his wife can go into battle together.

And Zhu Wei's own Chinese military camp, relying on the Xiangshi market of the Three Kingdoms game system, re-purchased crossbows and war horses, and recruited young recruits to complete the original establishment, so that the crossbowmen and cavalry in the Chinese military camp were restored to their original levels. At the same time, with the help of the training instructions of the Three Kingdoms game system, these recruits were trained again to become elites during this period.

In addition, Jiangxia Taishici and Wuling Weiyan's side, although they are only training soldiers, there is no change for the time being, but the soldiers in both places have also completed the training and preparation tasks.

Then there are Zu Lang and Pang Tong who were left by Zhu Wei in Guiyang County and Lingling County in Jingnan. In the past half a year, they led the Yueshan Camp to carry out the task of conquering the barbarian tribes in the mountains...
