[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

As the sun set and the twilight swept over, the tired crows returning home outside the city hoarsely neighed, and the soldiers defending the city subconsciously rubbed their arms, feeling an ominous premonition unconsciously in their hearts.

In the city, Liu Chong looked at the map with a dark face. If his eyes could be used as a knife, the map carefully tanned with sheepskin would have been chopped into pieces, "What's going on outside now? Sun Wentai of Yanzhou is really planning to intervene in the affairs of Yuzhou? "

A few scribes were nearby, and when they heard his question, they quickly stepped forward and answered, "Marquis Wu Cheng's army did not enter Yuzhou, but only stationed troops in Chenliu. It should be because they are afraid that the war will affect Yanzhou, so they have to plan ahead."

"The lord is a nobleman, an upright and upright clan member of the Han family. No matter how arrogant Wu Chenghou is, he will not dare to fight against the lord. He is just stationing troops and staying there. The lord can feel at ease." Guo Tu squeezed his well-maintained beard, The previous step said with a smile, "Yanzhou sent troops to take precautions, but to prevent disasters and not to hurt later. Cao Mengde, the shepherd of Yanzhou, is a smart man. Yanzhou has just put down the Taishan bandits, and he is so busy that he can't leave the ground. Sun Wentai thought Cao Mengde won't let him send troops if he joins the war."

Yanzhou was still robbed by black mountain thieves last year, and even the state herdsmen could be killed by thieves. If Cao Cao hadn't gone to Jizhou to ask for help, Yanzhou would not be able to calm down until now.

How long has it been since the rebellion by the thieves and bandits? No matter how capable Cao Cao is, he will not be able to make Yanzhou strong immediately. Sun Jian's soldiers are all his cronies brought from Jiangdong. It takes a lot of money to raise soldiers. Yanzhou can support itself That's not bad, I won't and dare not intervene in the affairs of Yuzhou.

Sun Jian stationed troops at Chen Liu at this time, only because he was afraid that their army would attack Yanzhou after sweeping Yuzhou. Definitely send troops on defense.

Besides, in a state, the state shepherd and the governor coexist, and it is very strange that they do not fight on their own. Such a thing as joining hands to govern Yanzhou would never happen in a dream.

There is no room for other people to snore on the side of the couch, there is no place for two tigers in one mountain, and there can only be one person in charge in a state. How can there be a good thing that civil and military divisions can coexist peacefully? Is it unclear what the end of the last one did?

Guo Tu sneered, firmly believing that Yanzhou was only stable on the surface, looking calm and calm, but in fact, the inside was already dark and turbulent.

Look at what Youzhou is like now. Liu Yu is quite popular as a state herdsman. Gongsun Zan thinks he is not pleasing to the eye, so he just arrests him. In that place, the governor of the state and herdsman coexists. Gongsun Zan is just a general who dares to do so Well, Sun Jian is a governor after all, so it is impossible for him to be willing to be dispatched at will.

Cao Cao is not a weak literati like Liu Yu who has no power to restrain a chicken. He has a lot of advisers and generals around him, and it is impossible to tolerate the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yanzhou not under his control.

In this way, it is only a matter of time before the two of them turn against each other, and Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan are their lessons from the past.

The two tigers in Yanzhou are fighting each other, and they have to be on guard against Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou. They only need to fight against themselves in Yuzhou, and they don't have to worry about Yanzhou's soldiers at all.

With his head held high, Guo Tu walked up to Tutu and talked eloquently. He analyzed the current situation clearly in a few words, and he almost said directly that their prince has the ability to become a great treasure, and no one else would pose a threat to them.

Liu Chong was coaxed by him for a moment, holding the hilt of the sword with enthusiasm, wishing to send troops to attack Qiaojun immediately, first take down the Yuzhou government, and then divide the troops from Qiaojun to attack Runan, so that more than half of Yuzhou is in their hands superior.

Runan has already been taken, and the nearby Yingchuan, Anfeng, and Yiyang are not to mention. As for the Liang State next door, the King of Liang will surrender without him asking.

Yuan Shu was the prefect in Nanyang, so he couldn't do anything about the affairs of Yuzhou. No matter how powerful the Yuan family in Runan was, it couldn't compete with the royal family surnamed Liu.

Bing is very fast, if their speed is enough, even the autumn harvest will not be delayed, and the whole Yuzhou will be under his control.

Liu Chong grinned, and traced the outline of Yuzhou on the map several times with his rough hands. First, he nodded to Guo Tu approvingly, and then immediately summoned his generals. In the morning, he would personally lead troops to attack Qiao County.

"My lord, there are heavy troops sent by Yuan Gonglu to guard Qiao County, so don't act rashly." After hearing what the two of them said, Luo Jun was furious, trying to persuade Liu Chong who had been beaten down.

As early as when this person wanted to use troops abroad, he raised objections. Chen Guo took advantage of the chaos in Yuzhou to attract many people, and it was time to recuperate. Even if the prince wanted to plot the world, it should not be now.

Yuzhou is in the middle of the world, and Chen Guo is only more than four hundred miles away from Luoyang City. What they should do now is not to take the initiative to attack, but to keep a low profile and accumulate their own strength, and find an opportunity to use Luoyang City as the foundation to calm the world.

The prince is an upright clan member of the Han family. Although the little emperor is the son of Lingdi, he is a puppet supported by the old thief Dong Zhuo. As long as they operate properly, they can be regarded as orthodox by the world.

It's only two or three years of work, why do we have to go to war now?

Not to mention that they may not be able to confront Yuan Shu head-on now, the reason for sending troops is not justified. It is obvious that they can take Luoyang and then take Yuzhou, but now they will fall behind when they start the war.

Guo Gong was in Jizhou to assist Jizhou Mu a few years ago, then he left Yuan Shao and switched to Yuan Shu for some reason, and now he is here to join the prince, isn't this guy really a spy sent by the Yuan family to mess around?

Luo Jun looked at Guo Tu with a sullen face, and felt more and more that this person had malicious intentions, "My lord, Sun Wentai has to guard against it, and Qiao County can't attack casually. If the lord really wants to seek a great cause, he can't give up his reputation. .”

If you get a bad reputation now, you may lose the support of the people in the future. How can you win the world if you don't get the support of the people?

Guo Gong is used to talking nonsense. At first glance, what he said seems to be true, but when he thinks about it carefully, there are loopholes everywhere. In any case, Chen Liuzhi's soldiers have to guard against it.

Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan had been at odds for a long time in Youzhou, and it was expected that Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu would start a war, but Yanzhou was different. Cao Cao and Sun Jian had been in Yanzhou for so long, and there was never any news that their relationship was bad.

What's more, Cao Cao asked Jizhou for help when defending against the black mountain bandits before, and when Yanzhou resumed production, Jizhou continued to send food there. Sun Jian's son Sun Ce worked under the command of Jizhou Mu. As long as it is really what he thinks, Yanzhou will never be messed up.

Guo Tu said it was good, but he only said things for the better. The reality couldn't be the same as he thought. It's not impossible for the prince to go to war if he really wants to. At least he must arrange the territory of Chen country.

Moreover, how can a prince with a thousand pieces of gold personally go to battle to kill the enemy, it's okay if there is no accident, but if there is an accident, what should Chen Guo do next?

Guo Tu squinted at Luo Jun, curled his lips and said in a strange manner, "The Prime Minister is worried too much. Yuan Gonglu must guard against Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou. The troops he can send to Yuzhou are limited. No one in Yuzhou counties is a match for the prince. It is our people." When the enemy is few, if you don't start a battle at this time, and wait until Qiao County asks for help from all around, wouldn't it be a waste of a great opportunity?"

"What you said makes sense." Liu Chong nodded, and raised his hand to let Luo Jun not have to say more, "The Yuan family is already a grasshopper after autumn, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou has been displeased with Yuan Shu for a long time. This king won Yuzhou, and Liu Jingsheng won it." Go down to Nanyang, once Yuzhou goes to war, Jingzhou will immediately raise troops to support, and this king will definitely win this battle."

Only Chen Guo in Yuzhou is stable. The other counties and counties have been war-torn for a long time. The people are restless and have no intention of fighting. .

"My lord." Luo Jun wanted to persuade him a few more words, but no matter how much he persuaded, Liu Chong was only sure about one point. The defenders in Qiao County were not his opponents. Liu Biao could contain most of the troops in Nanyang, and Yuzhou Can't escape his palm.

Their clan members surnamed Liu can watch over and help each other, but Yuan's may not. Yuan Gonggong and Yuan Benchu ​​brothers were strangled to death before. Yuan Shao heard in Bingzhou that he and Liu Biao had joined forces to kill Yuan Shu. Maybe he should thank them both.

Don't say anything, we will send troops to take Qiao County tomorrow.

Guo Tu smiled until there was only a slit in his eyes, and hurriedly followed the new lord who listened to persuasion and had the ability to act. Where can I meet such a talkative new protagonist.

Luo Jun chased him to the door, and was so angry at Guo Tu's provocative eyes. Seeing that their prince refused to listen to persuasion and insisted on going astray, he could only turn back in hatred.

The two favored ministers around the prince had a dispute, and the others were afraid to speak. After Liu Chong and Guo Tu left one after another, they gathered around Luo Jun to comfort each other.

The villains of Guo Tu will only dominate the prince and never let go. They have been with the prince for a long time, and they are closer to the prime minister in terms of emotion and reason. Chen Guo has a strong army and a strong army of 10,000+. Big, don't worry too much.

And even if they were defeated, Yuan Shu would not dare to do anything to the prince of their family as the patriarch of the Han family. Is this how you came here?

Let it go, let it go, let the prince be happy for a few days first.

Luo Jun sighed, looking at the drowsy sky outside, he rubbed his eyebrows and had to give up.

It was sunny for half a month, which was suitable for marching. Chen Guo and Qiao County were on the side. The army set off from the barracks and arrived at the city of Qiao County in less than a day. The guards at the city gate realized that something was wrong and immediately closed the city gate, and ran to the government office to report.

It's just a little different from what Liu Chong outside the city thought. There was no panic on the guard's face at all, and he even looked a little excited when he looked carefully.

After waiting for so many days, it can be regarded as seeing a serious soldier.

Yes, today's Qiao County not only has the garrison of the county government, but also [-] elite soldiers brought by Zhao Yun. Qiao County is the seat of Yuzhou.

After all, apart from Qiao County, he is not easy to do anything to other counties and counties adjacent to Chen State.

There are many families in Runan in Yingchuan, and it is easy to offend people if they fight rashly. It is okay for him to fight only with the Yuan family. If he directly confronts all the families in the land of Ruying, he may have to find a feng shui treasured land for himself in advance as a private house.

What's more, Yingchuan is Guo Tu's hometown, if he dares to persuade King Chen to attack Yingchuan, the entire Guo family will have no place in Yingchuan when the Yingchuan family recovers.

The state of Liang to the east of the state of Chen is a place to survive in the cracks. The king of Liang would rather spend money to eliminate disasters than to be troublesome and not push people to a dead end. He will never use troops anyway. Both of them are Han clan The king, the fiefs are adjacent, and the relationship is usually good, and the king of Chen will not force people to death.

After counting and counting, Qiao County is the most suitable place to start.

There were 10,000+ troops in Chen State, and King Chen took away [-] at once. The soldiers and horses left in Chen State were distributed in various counties, waiting eagerly for their prince to return from victory.

Luo Jun guessed that things might not be as smooth as their lord thought, and the facts proved that he was right. Although there were not as many soldiers and horses in Qiao County, Qiao County, but the young generals who led them were very brave. Played the aura of one man guarding the gate and ten thousand men not opening up, obviously the soldiers and horses are far inferior to them, so they didn't let them take advantage of it.

When did Yuan Shu have such talents around him, and why hadn't he heard of them before?

Not only Luo Jun was confused, but Liu Chong himself was also confused. Where did the young general with the white horse and white robe come from? Yuan Shu has such talents under his command, why didn't he let him play when he was fighting Yuan Shao?

However, what made them even more dumbfounded was not only Zhao Yun, who was born out of nowhere, but also Sun Jian, who Guo Tu said would never send troops.

Marquis Wu Cheng waited in Chenliu for several days, and when news came from Zhao Yun that King Chen and Liu Chong had led Chen Guo's soldiers out to besiege Qiao County, he immediately took action and directly led his troops to take Chen Guo down.

Luo Jun stayed behind, but he didn't have many soldiers in his hands. Most of Chen Guo's soldiers were taken away by Liu Chong. At this time, the interior of Chen State was empty, not to mention serious soldiers and horses, even the yellow scarf bandits and black bandits without weapons. no.

All the officials who stayed behind in Chen State were imprisoned. Until the prison door was locked, they couldn't understand why things had developed like this.

Sun Jian's thieves actually took advantage of others' dangers. How is such behavior different from that of bandits?

Wu Chenghou knew that it would be easy to be scolded for doing this kind of thing, so he didn't go to the prison at all. This time, Zuo Zuo was only here to help, not to really fight the territory. He didn't need him to solve the follow-up problems, as long as Zhao Zilong got rid of Liu Just pet it.

Oh, with Zhao Zilong's temperament, there is a high probability that he will only arrest people. Young people are soft-hearted. If he is in Qiao County at the moment, no matter what kind of king he is, he has no eyes on the battlefield. If he kills him, he will kill him. Can you crawl out from the ground and take your life?

As for the Chang'an court, there is no need to worry. If Zong □□ had the ability, he would have rescued the little emperor from the sea of ​​misery long ago, so he can't control the life and death of the clan and royal family outside.

Liu Chong took the lead in sending troops, and it was he who was at fault, and no one else could be blamed for dying on the battlefield.

Marquis Wu Cheng captured Chen Guo with lightning speed, and he walked around the official office non-stop, why is there nowhere more comfortable than Yanzhou? Should he remind Cao Mengde to rebuild the Changyi official office when he goes back?

Look at their official office, and then look at their official office in Changyi. It’s shameless to compare them. The state capital should be better than the county. They don’t say that they are compared with the Jizhou Yecheng official office. They can’t even compare with other counties. Nothing compares, it's too embarrassing to say it out.

Their Yanzhou is no longer the impoverished Yanzhou in the past. There is grain in the granary in Yanzhou now, which is not to let him start extravagance as soon as he has a little wealth, at least not to leak wind in winter and rain in summer.

No, he had to talk to Cao Mengde when he went back, even if it wasn't for himself, the Changyi government office had to be renovated for the sake of other brothers.

Jizhou, Yecheng.

The weather was sweltering, and the plants and trees in the yard were wilting and lifeless. Before the sun went down, there was not a single person on the street.

The enrollment of Yecheng Academy has come to an end. Those students who came for the fame of the great Confucianists saw the list posted on the notice board at the door. Some were happy and some were sad. There are no names on it, but there are not many people who left Yecheng.

They are scholars, as long as they leave their names and places of origin in the library, they can still go in and read classics. Even if they can't enter the academy, it is worthwhile to read a few more books in the library.

In today's world where aristocratic families dominate learning opportunities, there are very few literate people. It is rare to gather so many scholars together. There is no reason for them to hide in the library every day to read.

Xun Yu and Ju Shou thought about it for two days, and soon there were a few more notices on the notice board outside the library building. The government is recruiting talents, and those who feel talented can come to the Yecheng government office to try it out. What if it succeeds?

Recruitment by the government is usually issued to a certain person, and it is rare that when there is such a big fanfare, Ju Shou's recruitment order is so exciting that the number of scholars in the library is reduced by more than half that day.

In the past, King Yanzhao built a golden platform as a recruiting platform, and Jizhou was the land of Yanzhao in ancient times, and there were many strange people in Yanzhao. Now the state herdsman followed the example of King Yanzhao to call for talents from all over the world, and those with lofty ideals should go to work. Only in this way can we be worthy of the state herdsman The grace of building a library.

King Yanzhao built a golden platform as a recruiting platform, and it was a bit vulgar to use gold to lure him. Master Zhou built a library as a recruiting building. outperformed.

As expected of their fairy-like state shepherds, their minds are ingenious.

Yuan Huan was sitting at home, and his good reputation came from the sky. Guo Jia was stunned when he accidentally heard the evaluation of their lord from outside. He just didn't go out for a few days. Why did these scholars learn to flatter?

Their lord is indeed a fairy character, but he is not as good as they say, at least his temper is very irritating. According to these people, their lord is not a mortal, but he is clearly an immortal above the nine heavens.

"Fairy characters" and "fairy" cannot be equated. Are they collectively stimulated?

Guo Guicai was so shocked, he sneaked in among the scholars and listened for a while, and after understanding their mental journey, he didn't know what to say.

Is it because he is old? Why is he a little confused about what is in the heads of young people these days? Are they as?

Xun Yu rubbed his wrists, glanced lightly at Guo Fengxiao, who was lying on the book table and was deeply stimulated, and asked slowly with a smile, "My lord knows how to use people well, and I don't hesitate to take out private books to benefit the scholars in the world. Fengxiao thinks my lord Not worthy of their praise?"

"Who said it? I didn't say it!" Guo Jia straightened up immediately, raised his chin and stared back, "My lord is immortal and looks like a crane-bone loose posture, just like the birth of a Gushe God, any kind of praise is worthy of it, Guo Fengxiao was the first to disagree with anyone who said he was unworthy."

Xun Yu:  …

"My lord is at the mansion right now, no matter how nice you say, he won't be able to hear you." Xun Yu paused for a moment, and said very tactfully, "It's fine to say Feng Xiao's words in private, if the lord hears , I’m afraid I’ll punish you again.”

The appearance of their lord is indeed rare in this world, as long as they know this matter clearly in their hearts, if they really want to tell it in front of the lord, it will be difficult not to be punished.

Guo Jia shrugged, "I'm not stupid, of course I wouldn't talk nonsense in front of my lord, now you know how I feel, those people outside boast more than me."

"They are boasting that the lord is decent in government, what are you boasting about?" Xun Yu glanced at him, knocked on the book case and told him to finish the rest of the official business quickly. Now there are only two of them left in the council hall. He stared at it himself, it was impossible to be lazy.

Guo Fengxiao thumped his head, lazily pawing at the bamboo slips on the table, his movements seemed to be slow, but his writing speed was not slow. If he didn't know that his brain reacted quickly, Xun Yu would have thought he was fooling around.

The government hall was clean and cool. After a short while, Ju Shou hurried from outside with a cloth bag, "Wen Ruo, Yuzhou is at war."

The two people in the room raised their heads in unison, "The fight started?"

Ju Shou had a strange expression, "It's over."

Sun Wentai and Zhao Zilong sent battle reports one after the other. Just as Wu Chenghou captured Chen Guo, General Zilong contacted the army hidden outside the city to divide and attack Liu Chong's army.

Although Liu Chong has many soldiers and horses, most of them are mobs. He fled as a refugee from Chen Guo and was incorporated into the army. He was dragged into the battlefield before training for a few days. .

In less than half a day, all the [-] troops became prisoners.

Guo Jia:! ! !

Xun Yu:! ! !

The young man is usually shy and can't tell, but he didn't expect to be so fierce on the battlefield. Lu Feng has successors!
