Three Kingdoms: God-level selection
Chapter 42
Liu Yu was very dissatisfied with Gongsun Zan's actions from the beginning.
Gongsun Zan fought with foreign tribes for many years. In addition to being brave in battle, the army gradually acquired some habits of the Hu people, and the military discipline was not as strict as before.
The combat effectiveness of the soldiers is not weak, but they are extremely fierce and completely unreasonable.
Rather than saying that they are an army, it is better to say that they are a group of wild wolves.
They are fierce and brave, but they have no ability to think and no restraint of control.
Such an army can burst out with strong combat effectiveness in frontal battles.
But once morale slips, everyone's fighting beliefs are shaken, and mutiny is easy to occur.
To maintain such an army, you must give enough sweetness so that it can be driven.
Gongsun Zan also knew this, so he sometimes indulged his subordinates in burning, killing and looting to vent their post-war pressure.
The advantage of this is that the army can always maintain the highest level of combat effectiveness and can cope with any combat situation.
But the disadvantages are also obvious. The discipline of the army gradually dispersed, and the soldiers lost their benevolence.
From a regular army, it slowly transformed into a bandit.
The consequence of this is that Gongsun Zan, as the main general, began to lose his reputation.
If you have a bad reputation, the world will hate you, and the nobles will attack you.
In this era where both face and reputation are important, you are basically out of luck if your reputation is bad.
Wash your neck and wait to be assassinated.
Liu Yu also felt disgusted with Gongsun Zan because of his actions, and even wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
But after all, he has only been in Youzhou for a few years and his foundation is still shallow.
Even though he has a royal family background and a reputation for benevolence.
But in the barren areas near the border, it is still a bit reluctant.
His reputation can make people feel good about him and admire his benevolence.
But he has no real strength and cannot get a truly talented person to serve.
Compared with Gongsun Zan's profit-seeking reality, Liu Yu's is too idealistic and benevolent, and is even more vulnerable.
This is why the two people fought in history, and Gongsun Zan won.
Su Yan's sudden rise gave Liu Yu hope.
His idea was very simple.
He wanted to promote Su Yan, and then rely on him to check and balance Su Ping and Gongsun Zan.
He could stay behind the scenes and implement his own ambitions.
He only needed to secretly support Su Yan behind the scenes to prevent him from falling.
Su Yan would also be grateful for his respect, and then obey him to deal with Gongsun Zan and Su Ping.
The three of them would check and balance each other, and he would reap the benefits.
It was really a good plan.
Liu Yu thought about it, and then said to Wei You:"It's decided. You will issue a document on behalf of the state government to express your commendation for Su Yan, and then let him come to Ji County to see me."
""Yes!"
Wei You knew that Liu Yu's decision would not be changed, so he turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
Liu Yu suddenly called him
"Sir, is there anything else?"
Wei You turned around and asked again
"After you send the document, have someone spread the news. It would be best if both Beijia Mansion and Youbeiping County knew about this matter."
Liu Yu said with a smile.
Wei You was his confidant, and he promoted him after he came to Youzhou. Now he was the governor of the prefecture, and his power was only second to Beijia.
Liu Yu still trusted him very much.
Wei You was startled, and then bowed and said,"I understand." After that, he turned and left.
Liu Yu watched him leave, and felt very proud of his plan.
"Haha."
He walked out of the house somewhat proudly, and then walked towards his backyard.
That direction was exactly where his new concubine was................
After Wei You left, he quickly returned to the mansion to prepare to order someone to write a document commending Su Yan.
At the same time, he followed Liu Yu's instructions and spread the matter in Ji County first.
Soon the news reached the Beijia Mansion.
Beijia Mansion, as the second-in-command mansion in Youzhou, is magnificent and luxurious.
Su Ping's power is very large in the entire Youzhou, and he can clamp down on the governor Liu Yu, so many people are willing to curry favor with him.
The entire mansion covers a total area of dozens of acres, which is very large.
In a room in a more luxurious courtyard, a burst of laughter came from the room.
The sound was pleasant and moving, seductive, and exuded a fragrance.
After a while, a man's wild laughter and shouting came from the room, followed by bursts of fighting sounds, which made people excited.
Time passed slowly, and after a long time, the clouds and rain in the room dissipated and gradually stopped.
""Dong! Dong!"
At this time, a servant walked to the door and knocked.
"Young Master!"
""What's the matter?"
The man's arrogant voice came, with a little panting in it.
"It's about the governor's mansion and the eldest son."
After the servant finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming from the door, followed by a series of rustling sounds.
""Squeak!"
The door opened, and a handsome young man in a long robe and with his chest open came out.
"Let me see it."
He took the letter from the servant and glanced at it casually.
However, as he continued to read, his eyes were increasingly drawn to the letter.
"Damn it! This guy is still haunting me!"
He threw the letter on the ground angrily and shouted angrily.
The servant stood aside with his body bent, not daring to say a word.
He knew that the second son Su Ze was angry about the eldest son Su Yan.
Although the second son was favored in the Beijia Mansion, no one cared about the eldest son.
But the eldest son was the eldest son after all. As long as he didn't make a big mistake, he would inherit the family business in the future. Did n't the second son and his current wife do so much just to bring down the eldest son and make the head of the family want to enthrone the second son?
But this is not so easy.
Although the eldest son is weak, he is studious, and he is also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is much stronger than the second son who is unlearned.
Xu did it so many times, but still couldn't bring him down.
And Su Yan gradually became a headache for Xu and Su Ze.
""Su Yan, since you are so ignorant, don't blame me for being rude."
Su Ze murmured coldly, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
He picked up the letter, then asked the servant to push it down, went back to the house to tidy up his clothes, put on his long crown, and went to his mother Xu's yard.
Although he had already made up his mind, this matter was too serious, so he decided to ask his mother Xu for advice.
Xu was able to blow Su Ping's pillow all the time, and even with so many concubines, she still held the power.
From this, it can be seen that this woman is quite scheming!
