During the six-year offensive of the Mongolian army, Fancheng and Xiangyang City remained standing.

However, when the Huihui artillery appeared, it quickly became a nightmare for the Song army defending the city.

Fancheng and Xiangyang City fell to the Huihui artillery and were captured one after another.

Hui Hui Pao asked Gu Changan to attack any city in the future.

All can be used as a trump card.

Gu Changan quickly chose to use these three cards.

Gu Changan is now very experienced in coarse grains.

As long as he uses the card.

Gu Changan’s army will be in the process of clearing land, collecting land taxes, and checking hidden households.

A variety of grain and grass can be found in warehouses in some counties.

Now not only Gu Changan’s advisers and soldiers felt that Gu Changan was blessed with good fortune.

Even the ordinary soldiers in Gu Changan’s army felt that their lord had great luck.

But Hui Hui Pao didn’t know where he would appear from.

What Gu Changan didn’t expect the most was the Nine Flower Jade Dew Pills.

A whole 10,000 bottles of Jiuhua Yulu Pills appeared in Gu Changan’s study.

Several entire bookshelves were filled.

Gu Changan picked up a bottle of Jiuhua Jade Dew Pills.

He suddenly remembered someone.

A person who has not recovered from a serious injury.

Cai Wenji’s father Cai Yong…

With the end of the court meeting.

The imperial edict on conquering Yuan Shu spread throughout the world.

In addition, the imperial court called on all princes to jointly attack Yuan Shu!

And Yuan Shu’s behavior of driving away the imperial envoys and refusing to obey the imperial edict was publicized all over the world, and all the princes in the world knew about it.

“Crackling!”

There was another sweep, and the brushes, pen holders, inkstones, and bamboo slips on the table all fell to the ground with a crash!

“Snapped!”

Yuan Shu slapped the table heavily.

He roared loudly:”It’s too much to bully others!”

“Who is he, Gu Changan? He is a shameless brat, how dare he attack me!”

“I, the fourth and third son of the Yuan family, what kind of thing is he? An orphan without a father and a mother. He is not even a son of a good family. He is a pariah!”

“How dare you call on all the princes in the world to jointly attack me!”

“It’s simply too much!”

“I want to make it impossible for them to come back. Not only that, I also want to attack Chang’an City!”

Yuan Shu was furious and roared angrily.

All his advisers and generals were as silent as a cicada, not daring to say a word.

He waited until Yuan Shu’s anger calmed down a little.

Yan Xiang then spoke:”My lord, calm down. Now that Gu Changan has taken over the righteousness of the court, we must take precautions.!

Yuan Shu said with an unhappy face when he heard this.

“What do you mean? You think I shouldn’t expel the imperial envoy!”

“Do you think I shouldn’t refuse to obey the imperial edict? Is it all my fault?

Yan Xiang quickly explained:”Lord, calm down, that’s not the case!””

“Gu Changan is a villain, and the lord does not obey the edict. It is because Gu Changan humiliated the lord. What is the lord’s fault?”

“But Gu Changan is now ordering all the princes in the world in the name of the imperial court!”

“There is no guarantee that some princes will take advantage of the situation to rob you, so the lord must be on guard against it!

Yang Hong also quickly said:”Whether it is Liu Biao, Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, they may take advantage of the situation and rob them. In addition, Nanyang needs to strengthen its defense!””

Hearing the words of the two advisers.

Although Yuan Shu was arrogant, he also hesitated.

It is true that his relationship with Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Yuan Shao was very tense.

In this case, Gu Changan took advantage of In the name of the imperial court, the princes of the world are ordered to fight against him.

If he cannot deal with it properly, he may really be attacked by a group of people.

Yuan Shu said:”You tell me what I should do in this situation!

Yan Xiang said:”My lord, you should choose a brave general to take charge of Nanyang County!””

“Don’t seek no merit, but seek no fault. As long as you can keep Nanyang intact, it is a great achievement!”

“The lord also needs to guard against surrounding princes!”

“Liu Biao is not an overlord, he is suspicious, indecisive, and incompetent!”

“Just send troops to defend, I’m afraid he won’t attack the lord’s territory!”

“But Cao Cao must be on guard!”

“This person has always had a heroic spirit, and now that he has acquired the new land of Yanzhou, he will inevitably look covetously at other places like ours!”

“In addition, although Yuan Shao is the lord’s brother, he has always been very jealous of the lord and needs to be more careful!

Yuan Shu nodded:”In that case, let Ji Ling rush to Nanyang County as quickly as possible and take up residence in Nanyang!”

Yan Xiang opened his mouth and agreed:”General Ji Ling is extremely brave, his literary skills and military skills are beyond ordinary people. He is a very good candidate to guard Nanyang.”々‖ !”

Yang Hong felt a little hesitant in his heart.

He knew that Ji Ling was very brave on the battlefield, but he had a character that bullied the weak and feared the strong, and was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. in previous battles.

Ji Ling’s men and horses had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.

Therefore, Ji Ling was courageous and dared to fight.

But after his occasional setbacks, he was very disappointed.

However, Yang Hong did not speak to comfort Yuan Shu.

Ji Ling is already the number one general under Yuan Shu.

Moreover, when Ji Ling went to Nanyang, the right time, place and people were all on his side.

There is absolutely no reason to lose.

Yang Hong put down his worries, he did not want to offend Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was angry.

But he also knew this was a big crisis.

Once it is not handled well, other princes will inevitably swarm in and take a bite.

However, Yuan Shu also believed that he would definitely win.

The city in Nanyang County has strong walls and high walls. No matter how many troops are mobilized, it will be difficult to conquer.

What’s more, Gu Changan’s army didn’t have much ability to attack the city.

His army was mainly composed of Xiliang troops and some cavalry troops.

I haven’t heard that Gu Changan fought any siege battles.

Moreover, in Nanyang, the clan power is extremely powerful, and Ji Ling only needs to sit in Nanyang City.

As long as the city is not lost, these clan forces can even harass the food routes of Gu Changan’s army.

In short, there is no doubt that we will win!

Yuan Shu is actively preparing for war here.

The imperial edict to attack Yuan Shu was also spread to the hands of all the princes…….

“Ha ha ha ha! Yuan Gongdao has great ambitions!”

“Although the imperial court is weak now, it still has what people want!”

“He actually dared to risk disobedience, drive away the imperial envoys, and refuse to obey the imperial edict!”Cao Cao looked at the edict in his hand and laughed loudly.

Cheng Yu also smiled slightly and said:”Although Yuan Shu is wrong in this matter, my lord still has to be careful about Gu Changan!”

“Gu Changan is good at taking advantage of the court’s righteousness, so he must be on guard!”

Cao Cao looked at the edict in his hand, and he suddenly thought: It would be great if the emperor was in my hands!

Then he thought again, if Gu Changan failed, there would be turmoil in the Guanzhong area.

Would he have a chance to take the emperor back? Come here?

Cao Cao quickly extinguished this thought in his heart.

He said to Cheng Yu:”The imperial court called on us to jointly attack Yuan Shu, but we will not obey the order!”

Cheng Yu said:”Master, we both obey the imperial edict and we do not obey the imperial edict!”

Cao Cao asked with some confusion:”What does this mean?”

Cheng Yu smiled slightly and said:”The city of Nanyang County has high walls and the clan is extremely powerful!””

“It can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. I conclude that Gu Changan will return in defeat!”

“In this way, we cannot let Gu Changan lose too easily!”

“Why don’t we call on all the princes in the world to respond to the imperial court’s order to attack Yuan Shu, and we will be the first to send troops!”

“But our soldiers and horses gathered in Fengqiu and Kuangting and did not take the initiative to attack!”

“However, if Yuan Shu doesn’t care, it doesn’t mean he can’t fight!”

“If Yuan Shu wants to defend us, he can involve Yuan Shu’s troops!”

“This makes it impossible for Yuan Shu to concentrate a large number of troops in Nanyang County!”

“If Gu Changan and Yuan Shu form an anxiety in the Nanyang area, that would be the best!”

“In this way, both of them will consume troops, food and financial resources!

When Cao Cao heard this, he slammed the table:”Okay, let’s do it!””

“We will respond to the imperial court’s call to conquer Yuan Shu!”

“Find a way to spread this news and let all the princes in the world know what we have done!”

Cao Cao paused and said again.

“In addition, send me secret spies to keep an eye on the news in the Guanzhong area and Chang’an City!”

“If chaos arises, be sure to play it by ear!”

Cheng Yu looked at the edict in Cao Cao’s hand and had a clear understanding in his heart.

“Don’t worry, my lord, we will pay close attention to the news in the Guanzhong area and Chang’an City in the future!”

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction…….

Liu Biao, the pastor of Jingzhou, looked at the edict in his hand and quickly called a meeting of civil servants and generals to discuss.

With the help of Jingzhou’s wealthy families.

Liu Biao took control of Nanjun.

But it also brings a big disadvantage.

That is, Liu Biao’s control over Jingzhou is quite weak.

Almost without exception, the senior bureaucrats and state and county officials under Liu Biao were from Jingzhou’s wealthy families.

Therefore, many policies and plans in Jingzhou cannot be decided by Liu Biao alone.

Instead, he and the wealthy families in Jingzhou discussed and implemented it.

So faced with the imperial edict to attack Yuan Shu.

Liu Biao needs to summon everyone to discuss

“Yuan Shu was such a heinous person that he dared to expel the imperial envoys and refused to obey the imperial edict!”

“Now the imperial court has issued an edict calling on the princes across the country to jointly attack Yuan Shu!”

“And the imperial army has begun to conquer Yuan Shu!”

“Everyone, please tell me how we should deal with this!”

Cai Mao quickly said:”Lord, be careful about this matter!”

“Nanyang County is far away from Chang’an City. It is unwise for the imperial court to order Yuan Shu to be conquered.”

“I conclude that the imperial army will definitely be defeated!”

“If we take the initiative to conquer Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu will inevitably be angry with us after the imperial army is defeated!

Yang Yi shook her head and said,”We can’t do nothing!””

“In addition, Gu Changan was able to capture the entire Liangzhou and capture the city of Chang’an with lightning speed, so he was not incompetent!”

“The imperial army’s attack on Yuan Shu may not be certain to fail, but the winning rate is not high either!”

“We can’t let Yuan Shu defeat the imperial army so easily!”

“It would be best if they could be entangled and anxious with each other for a year and a half!

Han Song also nodded:”Why don’t we pretend to follow the imperial edict and station troops in Huainan!””

“In this way, we are officially following the imperial edict, but in fact we are restraining Yuan Shu’s military strength, preventing him from concentrating all his efforts on dealing with Nanyang County!

Liu Biao immediately slapped his thigh when he heard this:”That’s it!””

Although Liu Biao and Yuan Shu have mutual hatred,

Liu Biao is not willing to conflict with Yuan Shu at this time.

Liu Biao does not have too many ambitions.

He will be satisfied if he can securely hold Jingzhou.

No matter for whatever reason, Liu Biao and Cao Cao chose the same method.

That was to station troops at the border with Yuan Shu.

To contain Yuan Shu’s troops, Yuan Shu could not fully respond to Gu Changan’s attack…….

Tao Qian of Xuzhou also received the imperial edict.

Tao Qian is a loyal and honest man.

He said to his civil and military officials:”` 々Although Yuan Shu was wrong, the Yuan family was the fourth generation and the third prince, and he was loyal to the court!”

“The imperial court actually attacked Yuan Shu. This was a mess!”

“We won’t get involved, lest we increase the number of killings. Let’s wait and see what the final result will be after the imperial court’s conquest. We are still discussing!

Mi Zhu quickly said:”Mr. Tao, this is impossible!””

“Yuan Shu refused to obey the imperial edict, which is why he ended up like this!”

“Tao Gong, if you don’t set an example, there is no guarantee that the court will treat Tao Gong unfavorably on the grounds of refusing to obey the edict! Tao

Qian smiled coldly and said:”Gu Chang’an, I am a shameless kid with no talent or virtue, yet I secretly occupy a high position, which is a dangerous place in Guanzhong. Otherwise, the princes of the world would have invaded Chang’an City!””

“No need to mention this matter again!”

After Tao Qian finished speaking, he walked away.

Mi Zhu was speechless, and Mi Fang and Chen Deng behind him had no choice.

They were not taken seriously by Tao Qian…….

“Ha ha ha ha!”Yuan Shao looked at the edict in his hand and couldn’t help laughing.

“Yuan Jiujiu also has today!”

Yuan Shao has no way to rejoice in his misfortune. The reason why Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are at odds is mainly because of their identity background, political philosophy and the struggle for inheritance of family resources.

In terms of identity background,

Yuan Shao is the bastard son of Yuan Feng and his maidservant.

Yuan Shu is the son of Yuan Feng and his maidservant. The second son born to Yuan Feng’s royal wife.

This difference in status led to the discord between the two brothers.

Before Yuan Shao adopted the family, Yuan

Shu looked down on Yuan Shao’s origin and often belittled him.

Yuan Shao later He was adopted to Yuan Shu’s uncle Yuan Cheng.

In this way, Yuan Shao changed from a concubine to Yuan Cheng’s son.

Yuan Shao’s identity was higher than Yuan Shu.

After adoption, Yuan Shao became Yuan Cheng’s disciple.

And Yuan Shu He was still the second son.

This change in relationship made Yuan Shu always hostile to Yuan Shao.

In addition, in the early days, the two people also had very different political ideas.

Yuan Shao was famous for his disciples and planned to support the Han Dynasty clan. Liu Yu became the emperor.

Yuan Shu believed that the Han Dynasty could not be saved and was unwilling to establish a new emperor.

In addition, the Yuan family had four generations and three princes, and their disciples and old officials were all over the world.

In this way, the Yuan family had huge political resources in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

And Yuan Shao After becoming the eldest grandson of the Yuan family, he was regarded by (Nuo Zhao Zhao) as the candidate to inherit the family resources.

This made other family members, especially Yuan Shu, feel dissatisfied and jealous.

In the end, this long-term dissatisfaction.

During the Eighteenth Route, the princes attacked Dong Zhuo At that time, it broke out.

Yuan Shao was publicly elected as the leader of the alliance.

Yuan Shu was very angry about this.

It was these various reasons that together led to the long-term discord and even hatred between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu not only did not When brothers work together, their strength is greater than gold.

Instead, it is the brothers who cause trouble for Xiao Qiang.

As a result, the four generations of the Yuan family and the three princes, disciples and former officials are all over the world.

But this huge force is divided into two.

Some people support Yuan Shao, and some people support Yuan Shu..

If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu could be combined into one, I am afraid that the entire Han Dynasty would have been named Yuan long ago.

Seeing Yuan Shao so excited,

Xu You couldn’t help but ask:”My lord doesn’t know this edict, how should we deal with it!””

Yuan Shao smiled conceitedly and said:”Of course I am following the imperial edict and preparing troops to attack Yuan Shu!”

“Yuan Shu behaved like a villain. He actually drove out the imperial envoys and refused to obey the imperial edict!”

“Now that the imperial court is calling on all the princes in the world to fight against it, we must respond even more!

Tian Feng hurriedly said:”My lord, think twice. Although my lord and Yuan Gongli are at odds with each other, he is my lord’s cousin after all!””

“As members of the Yuan family, if we take the initiative to conquer, we will inevitably give the princes in the world a word of mouth!

Yuan Shao said with an unhappy look on his face:”Then what should you do?”

Tian Feng hurriedly said:”We should be careful of Gongsun Zan in Youzhou. To attack Yuan Shu, the journey is long and the gains outweigh the losses!””

“Why not just condemn Yuan Shu and call on other princes to attack Yuan Shu!”

“In this way, it will be relatively easy for the imperial army to attack Nanyang!

Yuan Shao suddenly asked with great interest:”You said that if the imperial court attacks Nanyang, can it capture Nanyang County?””

Both Xu You and Tian Feng shook their heads……. ps:▄█ˉ█●Please, it’s on the shelves, please subscribe, flowers, rating votes, rewards and comments!.
