Legend of Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

After the battle between Gongsun Xu and Liu Yu, Liu Yu, his son Liu Kai, and his subordinate Yan Rou and others escaped from Youzhou, and their whereabouts were unknown. Gongsun Xu also became the most powerful prince in Youzhou, occupying half of Youzhou above the site.

After occupying the seven prefectures and one country, Gongsun Xu stationed Li Chengliang in Dai County, Di Qing in Zhuo County, Pei Sui in Shanggu County, Luo Cheng in Yuyang County, Zou Dan in Liaoxi County, Shan Xiongxin in Liaodong State, and Zhao Yun in Guangxi. Yangjun and Youbeiping Commanderies were garrisoned by Zong Ze and Changsun Sheng together.

After Gongsun Xu arranged all the generals under his command, he also chose a day to return to Youbeiping County.

Chapter 189

Not long after Gongsun Xu returned to Youbeiping County, Gongsun Xu called Changsun Sheng to the prefect of Youbeiping County. Although Gongsun Xu didn't know why Changsun Sheng was looking for him, Changsun Sheng and Gongsun Zan were best friends. Sheng is also Gongsun Xu's elder, so Gongsun Xu didn't refuse, but came to the prefect's mansion.

Of course, Gongsun Xu also has his own little thoughts. On the way to the prefect's mansion, a beautiful image will always appear in Gongsun Xu's mind unconsciously.

When Gongsun Xu came to the prefect's mansion, he found a rather obese man in front of the prefect's mansion.Seeing this man, Gongsun Xu smiled and went up to say hello: "Brother Wuji, where are you going?"

Seeing that it was Gongsun Xu, Changsun Wuji was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Where else can I go? Of course I am waiting for you here."

"Wait for me?" Gongsun Xu was stunned this time.

Gongsun Xu affirmed: "Father knew you were coming today, so he specially asked me to wait for you here. But you don't have to worry too much, Father will not make things difficult for you."

Gongsun Xu smiled when he heard Changsun Wuji's words, and then followed Changsun Wuji into the prefect's mansion.

Gongsun Xu believed that Changsun Sheng would not call him to reminisce about the past for no reason, especially now that he had occupied all the three counties and one country that originally belonged to Liu Yu. At this time, I will simply ask him to come over for dinner.

On the way to enter the prefect's mansion with Changsun Wuji, Gongsun Xu kept looking around, as if looking for something.

When Changsun Wuji saw Gongsun Xu's appearance, he smiled and said, "Don't look for General Gongsun, Wugou is not in the mansion today."

Gongsun Xu smiled and said, "Brother Wuji, don't make fun of me, where did Wugou go today?"

After finishing talking about Gongsun Xu, he secretly regretted that it was really rude to inquire about the whereabouts of other girls.But Changsun Wuji didn't care, but said to Gongsun Xu: "I don't know about that, maybe he showed up right away when he knew you were coming, General Gongsun?"

Hearing what Changsun Wuji said, Gongsun Xu knew in his heart that he might not see Changsun Wugou today.For some reason, there was a sense of loss in my heart.

Under the leadership of Changsun Wuji, Gongsun Xu soon arrived at Changsun Sheng's study, but when Gongsun Xu and Changsun Wuji arrived in front of Changsun Sheng's study, Changsun Wuji stopped in his tracks. Pointing to this study, he continued to Gongsun: "My father is inside, you go in, I won't go in."

Gongsun Xu nodded to show that he knew, and then under the leadership of Changsun Wuji, he knocked on the door and entered Changsun Sheng's study.After Gongsun Xu entered the study, he saw the eldest Sun Sheng who had his back turned to him at first glance.

Gongsun Xu didn't dare to be the slightest bit rude to Changsun Sheng, and said respectfully: "My nephew, Gongsun Xu, has met Uncle Changsun."

After hearing Gongsun Xu's words, Chang Sun Sheng turned his head, staring at Gongsun Xu with a pair of eagle-like eyes, as if he wanted to see what Gongsun Xu was made of.

Then Changsun Sheng sat on the main seat in the study, pointed to the place beside him and said to Gongsun Xu, "Sit."

Gongsun Xu sat on his seat respectfully after hearing the words.Of course, there are no such things as chairs in this era. The so-called sitting refers to sitting cross-legged, and such a sitting posture makes people very uncomfortable.Let Gongsun Xu secretly swear in his heart that he must make several sets of chairs, otherwise it would be too torture to sit cross-legged like this every time.

When Changsun Sheng saw that Gongsun Xu was doing well, he said in a deep voice, "I won't play around with you anymore, I'll just say it straight."

After hearing this, Gongsun Xu knew that this was the highlight of the day, and immediately said: "If you have any questions, please speak up, my nephew will know everything."

"Okay." Chang Sun Sheng was also unambiguous, and asked directly: "Do you know what kind of prestige Bo'an Gong has in Youzhou? Why do you want to start a war with him, and why do you want to drive him out of Youzhou?"

After being silent for a while, Gongsun Xu said: "I know that Duke Bo'an is very popular in Youzhou, but there can only be one voice in Youzhou. And this voice can only be me. If Duke Bo'an does not leave Youzhou, he can only It's death."

Changsun Cheng sighed unceasingly when he heard the words.Of course he understood the contradiction between Gongsun Xu and Liu Yu, to be precise, the contradiction between Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan.The main reason is that the two have different ideas. After Gongsun Zan died, Gongsun Xu inherited Gongsun Zan's ideas, so it became a contradiction between Gongsun Xu and Liu Yu.

But what Ling Changsun Sheng didn't expect was that this conflict broke out so quickly. Before anyone could react, a big battle broke out between Gongsun Xu and Liu Yu, and the final result of this big war made many people feel uncomfortable. did not think of.

Then Changsun Sheng's eyes suddenly became sharper, and he said to Gongsun Xu: "Then Gongsun Xu, let me ask you, where is your ambition?"

Gongsun Xu was taken aback when he heard the words, how to answer this question?It always feels like the eldest Sun Sheng is asking him if you are interested in rebelling.

After Gongsun continued to think for a while, he said to Changsun Sheng in a deep voice: "My nephew's ambition is in the four directions of the world. I want to leave my nephew's footsteps in the four directions, and use the sword in my hand to conquer the four directions."

Speaking of this, Gongsun Xu's eyes seemed to emit a ray of light that could reach the sky.

Changsun Sheng looked at Gongsun Xu who was in a state of excitement, but he sighed. He had already seen Gongsun Xu's ambition, and he just wanted to confirm it.

Although Gongsun Xu didn't say anything about rebellion, Changsun Sheng could hear clearly that this Gongsun Xu was about to rebel. Of course, it was because the Han Dynasty had not yet perished, so all acts of disobedience They are all rebels.

However, with the eyesight of Changsun Sheng, he has long seen that the Han Dynasty has come to an end. If nothing else, you can see it by looking at the princes who are now separatist, such as Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and Liu in Yizhou. Yan, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Sun Jian of Jiangdong, etc., still take the Chang'an court seriously.Unless the big man can now produce an emperor as talented as Emperor Wu or Emperor Guangwu, otherwise, this big man can only be on the road to destruction.

But Changsun Sheng also understands that this is a historical inevitability. In the 600 years of Chengtang, the country was not dominated by Ji Fa. In the 800 years of the Zhou Dynasty, the country still belonged to the Tyrant Qin.Now that the Han Dynasty has been established for 400 years, it is not incomprehensible that it will be destroyed. It is just that they have been children of the Han family since they were young, so they are temporarily unacceptable.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, many people of insight in the world knew that troubled times were coming again.

Thinking of this, Changsun Sheng stood up and continued to Gongsun: "Xu'er, you should also be crowned this year. I wonder if there is a sign?"

Gongsun Xu was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what Changsun Sheng was thinking, so he could only say: "My nephew has no name for now."

Changsun Sheng said in a deep voice, "Then how about I get you one?"

This time Gongsun Xu thanked him: "Nephew, thank you uncle."

In this era, the bestowal of characters is either the elders of the clan, or people of high moral standing, but it is reasonable for the elder Sun Sheng to give the bestowals to Gongsun Xu.The important thing is that Gongsun Xu also feels that he should have a watch, after all, he is already 20 years old this year.

Seeing that Gongsun Xu agreed, Changsun Sheng thought for a while and said, "The continuation, the successor. Let's call it Chengyuan."

Cheng Yuan?Gongsun Xu thought carefully about the name that the eldest Sun Sheng had given him, but physically saluted and said, "Nephew, thank you uncle for giving me the name."

After giving the letter, the relationship between Changsun Sheng and Gongsun Xu also became more harmonious. Changsun Sheng smiled and said to Gongsun Xu: "Chengyuan, I think you are not married yet, so I have a little girl under my knees. For Wugou, you should also know that you will be eighteen this year, I wonder what Cheng Yuan thinks of you?"

Is Changsun Sheng going to be old in the month?Gongsun Xu was puzzled, but when he heard that the person Changsun Sheng wanted to draw the red line for him was Changsun Wugou, Gongsun Xu was overjoyed.Afterwards, Changsun Sheng nodded and agreed to whatever Gongsun Xu said.He didn't even know how Gongsun Xu walked out of the gate of the prefect's mansion in the end.

Changsun Sheng watched Gongsun Xu walk out of the prefect's mansion, but murmured in his heart: "I have already made a choice, I just hope that my choice this time is right."

However, after returning to his Xiaoqi General's Mansion, Gongsun Xu quickly told his mother Hou Shi about the matter. After all, the marriage is still up to the parents.However, Hou Shi himself is quite satisfied with his eldest grandson Wugou, so he is also very happy after knowing this.

Chapter 1: The Rapid Development of Cao Cao

When Gongsun Xu was about to take the whole Youzhou into his hands, Cao Cao in Yanzhou also ushered in rapid development.

In April of the third year of Chuping, Cao Cao defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Shouzhang, Yanzhou.In September of that year, Cao Cao led his army to pursue the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, and defeated all the Yellow Turbans who had invaded Yanzhou in the Jibei area.In the end, the Yellow Turban Army surrendered, and Cao Cao got about 30 prisoners. Including the old, weak, sick, disabled, women and children at that time, the total population was more than 100 million.Later, Cao Cao organized the elite of these Qingzhou Yellow Turban captives into an army, known as Qingzhou Soldiers, and they were extremely brave.As a result, Cao Cao's strength was greatly enhanced.

Because Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jinbei, and Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, both died at the hands of the Yellow Turban, Yanzhou was already occupied by Cao Cao at that time. Later, after the court learned of this, it appointed Jingzhao Yin Jinshang as the governor of Yanzhou, but at this time Yanzhou They are all under the control of Cao Cao, so naturally he will not give up Yanzhou.Therefore, on the way to Yanzhou, Jin Shang was ambushed by Cao Cao halfway, Jin Shang fled to Yuan Shu's place, and Cao Cao took Yanzhou into his hands.

Later, in desperation, the Chang'an court had no choice but to add Cao Cao as Zhendong General, in charge of Yanzhou affairs.And because Jin Shang defected to Yuan Shu, the relationship between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao also deteriorated rapidly.

Cao Cao was in charge of Yanzhou affairs in the name of General Zhendong, and recruited talents in Yanzhou.First, a pair of uncles and nephews came to join him.Among them, the uncle is Xun Yu and the nephew is Xun You.

Xun Yu was originally under Yuan Shao's command, but because he was completely disappointed with Yuan Shao, he came to join Cao Cao after learning that Cao Cao was in charge of Yanzhou affairs in the name of General Zhendong.

On the night when Xun Yu came to seek refuge, Cao Cao and Xun Yu talked all night long until dawn.When the two appeared in front of the soldiers in the army, Cao Cao praised Xun Yu as "the talent of Wang Zuo" and called Xun Yu "my son's house".You must know that Zifang is the character of Zhang Liang, one of the three masters in the early Han Dynasty. This shows that Cao Cao attaches great importance to Xun Yu.And Xun Yu also received such praise from Cao Cao, which shows that he is also very confident in himself.

And Xun You was originally the servant of the Huangmen in the palace, but later he resigned and returned to his hometown for some reason. This time he came to join Cao Cao with Xun Yu.Cao Cao tested Xun You from many aspects, and Xun You could answer the questions fluently. Cao Cao knew that he had met a great talent, so he also used Xun You a lot.

Later, Xun Yu recommended a man to Cao Cao, who was from Dong'a in Dongjun, whose surname was Cheng, whose name was Yu, and whose style name was Zhongde.Cao Cao had heard about Cheng Yu's name a long time ago, so he went to invite Cheng Yu out of the mountain on the spot.And Cheng Yu saw Cao Cao came to invite him personally, felt Cao Cao's sincerity, and also felt that Cao Cao was the master of a generation, so he was invited by Cao Cao to work for Cao Cao.

Later, Cheng Yu recommended another person to Cao Cao, who was Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao from Xun Yu's hometown.After Cao Cao heard about it, he sent Xun Yu to Yingchuan to conquest Guo Jia, to discuss the world's major affairs with him.
