Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 477 Mutual Computation
The news of Yuan Shu's self-reliance spread to Huaicheng, and Liu Xie called a group of ministers to discuss countermeasures.

The ministers in the hall were passionate and filled with righteous indignation, but they had different opinions and endless debates about how to deal with it. Liu Xie was dizzy from the quarrel, and said: "I want to issue an edict to reprimand him for his actions. Which love minister will send an edict for me?" ?”

When all the ministers heard this, they suddenly fell silent. You look at me, I look at you, and no one makes a sound.

Liu Xie said slowly: "If you have any ideas, you can come one by one."

Ding Chong stepped forward and said: "There are no two emperors in the sky, Yuan Gonglu's actions are extremely presumptuous, but this person has already risked the disobedience of the world, so naturally he has no scruples. Even if the emperor issues an edict, I am afraid that he will go his own way."

"But his behavior must be punished, otherwise what is the mighty virtue of the Han Dynasty?"

"It is imperative for His Majesty to issue an edict, but not to Yuan Gonglu, but to the princes of the world."

"Let the princes of the world discuss it together!"

Prince Fu went out and said: "Before that, shouldn't we issue an edict first, if he is frightened by the majesty of the emperor and abolishes the title of emperor himself, wouldn't it be necessary to use a large number of swords?"

Ding Chong snorted coldly: "If he ignores the emperor's decree, won't His Majesty lose his majesty?"

Everyone nodded. If Liu Xie issued an edict and Yuan Shu ignored it, the edict would undoubtedly become a joke, and it was almost a certainty.

Since Yuan Shu is so fully prepared for self-reliance, why would he care about an edict that has no actual deterrent effect?
Immediately someone said: "What Ding Shilang said is very true. You should mobilize the envoys of all states in the world with great speed, send troops to crusade, and capture him before the emperor to confess his crimes, so as to show your majesty!"

Everyone cursed secretly, caught him?
Yuan's has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, is it so easy for you to say?
And if they lose the battle, wouldn't Han Ting be even more ashamed?
But everyone also knows that calling the princes to send troops is the only way at present.

This battle must be fought.

If Yuan Shu fails, the Han court can still maintain its position in the hearts of the people of the world. If Yuan Shu cannot be eliminated, the situation after that will be that there are two emperors in the sky, and the Han court will lose its majesty.

But speaking of it, the current Han court does not have any deterrent power. It is Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu who are fighting for the world. The Han court's more than ten thousand soldiers are nothing in front of the two Yuans.

So everyone spoke up one after another, agreeing to issue an imperial edict ordering the princes to discuss Yuan Shu together.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Liu Xie said, "According to the opinions of all the ministers, who is the right person to send to attack?"

Zhong Ji immediately stood up and said: "Today, the only one in the world who can fight against Yuan Gonglu is Yuan Benchu, and the two of them originally fought against each other. It is appropriate to issue an edict ordering him to attack Yuan Gonglu."

Ding Chong sneered at the moment and said: "The two Yuans are fighting, and everyone knows what it is for. Both of them have evil intentions. How can they honestly attack each other just because the emperor issued an edict?"

Dong Cheng said: "Ding Shilang's words are wrong. When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. Isn't this a good thing for the Han court?"

"Besides, Yuan Gonglu has also received the title of emperor, why do you think he must have a different heart?"

At this time, Zhong Yao came out and said, "Yuan Benchu ​​didn't see that he was facing the Han court. If Yuan Gonglu's self-reliance is a tacit understanding between the two, so what?"

Dong Cheng sneered and said, "According to Zhong Shilang, Yuan Benchu ​​is also the enemy of the Han court?"

Zhong Yao was at a loss for words, so he could only say, "I dare not make a judgment on this."

Everyone felt something. The two sides seemed to be fighting over a very sensitive issue. One side was aggressive, while the other side was desperately trying to cover it up.

Sure enough, Kong Rong couldn't hold back anymore, and went out to play: "What does it have to do with Yuan Benchu's participation or not in sending an edict to the princes of the world to punish Yuan Shu's rebels?"

"Cao Mengde is located in Yanzhou, and Jiujiang Shouchun, Yuan Shu's headquarters, is only separated by a county in Yuzhou!"

"Whether it is from Chenliu to the south to fight Chen Guo, and then enter Jiujiang from Runan, or go south to Peiguo from Shanyang, and directly enter Jiujiang, it is very convenient. Is there anyone more suitable than him in the world?"

"Or some people think that Cao Mengde, who is loyal to the emperor, is actually attached to Yuan Benchu ​​and colludes with Yuan Shu secretly?"

"So, Cao Mengde's loyalty to Yuan Benchu ​​is far greater than that of the Han court?"

As soon as this remark came out, Zhong Yao, Ding Chong and other Cao Cao's eyeliners cursed in their hearts. Kong Rong was blocked by the words, and they couldn't refute for a while!

The intention of Zhong Yao and others was to remove Cao Cao first and let the other princes go first, so that Cao Cao would not become Yuan Shu's primary target of attack when he dispatched troops.

As a result, Kong Rong directly pointed out Cao Cao unceremoniously, and his words ran, making Zhong Yao Ding Chong grit his teeth.

Because Kong Rong has no other strengths, but he is one of the best among the famous people in the world when it comes to spraying people.

Every time when the court visits and calls for a match, Kong Rong often cites evidence to make a decision, and the ministers and officials cannot refute it. Therefore, as long as Kong Rong speaks, others are unwilling to debate with him, lest they will humiliate themselves.

At this time, Kong Rong pointed his finger at Cao Cao again. Ding Chong knew that he had to stand up, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "Cao Mengde is only loyal to the emperor, and the world can learn from it."

"However, Yanzhou has just put down the civil strife, and its vitality has been seriously injured..."

"Civil strife?" Zhang Miao jumped out and shouted, "Yanzhou has been tortured by Cao Cao. As the prefect of Chenliu, I raised troops to stop his injustice. Could it be a rebellion?"

"I am a rebel, so is Marquis Wen also a rebel?"

Lu Bu who was present heard this, snorted coldly, and stared over, making Ding Chong feel terrified.

Zhang Miao took advantage of the situation and said, "Speaking of which, Cao Mengde's Yanzhou pastor at that time was the one who was self-reliant, right?"

"Who is the traitor?"

Ding Chong had a headache. Although there were many people supporting Cao, most of them were hiding in the dark. Only himself and Zhong Yao stood up and waved the flag.

As for the anti-Cao ministers, although the number is small, they are all at odds with Cao Cao. For example, Zhang Miao in the hall, because his whole family was killed, he would always criticize Cao Cao every time he went to court.

Zhang Miao is also a well-known person in the world, with good eloquence, just now he caught the loopholes in Ding Chong's words, came out to attack, and led the contradiction to Lu Bu who was present.

Ding Chong was fine with flirting with others, but he didn't dare to publicly criticize Lu Bu. The other party would really kill someone!

He was in a dilemma, Zhong Yao came out to smooth things over and said, "Everyone knows that Marquis Wen is loyal, and his bravery is unparalleled in the world."

"Since this is the case, why doesn't Marquis Wen lead an elite army to go south from Hanoi to Yinchuan, Henan Province, to attack Yingchuan, Yuzhou, and directly from Runan to Shouchun, Jiujiang?"

"This route doesn't require Cao Mengde to go far, does it?"

Chen Gong said: "As a general, Marquis Wen has the responsibility of defending the capital and mobilizing the world. If Marquis Wen is required to go out in person, how is it different from other generals?"

"It's fine for Zhong Shilang to talk about political affairs, but to talk about military affairs, isn't he overstepping his authority?"

"Whoever sends troops will need to be judged by the emperor in the end."

After Zhong Yao heard this, he realized that he was really impatient, and let the other party see his purpose!

I was impatient and exposed my intentions. If Lv Bu leads troops to attack Yuan Shu, he will come and go for at least half a year. At this time, Huaicheng will definitely be defenseless, and Cao Cao's people can do a lot of tricks.

But Lu Bu was not a vegetarian either, including Chen Gong, who immediately saw the thoughts of Cao Cao's family.

Ding Chong sighed. After all, Zhong Yao is a civil servant. Compared with those veterans who have fought in war, there is indeed a gap. Now he can only try his best to make up for it. responsible."

"Cao Mengde will definitely fight, but it would be too unfair for other people to sit on the sidelines."

"What's more, there is still a shortest route now."

"Liu Xuande occupies Xiapi, Xuzhou, and directly borders Jiujiang. If he attacks Shouchun, it will only take a few hundred miles."

"And Marquis An Guoting, as the shepherd of Xuzhou, occupies Guangling, not more than one or two hundred miles away."

"With these two people, why bother to look far away?"

Everyone thought that what you said was very high-sounding. Do you really don't know or just don't know, Shouchun is Yuan Shu's base camp, surrounded by heavy troops?
Especially on the border of Jiujiang bordering Xuzhou, Yuan Shu planned Xuzhou and deployed a large number of troops. Liu Bei had already clashed with him several times, and he was barely able to block it. At this time, you want him to capture Yuan Shu's base camp. Isn't it difficult for others?

Chen Gong said in a deep voice: "Master Ding should understand that the north of Shouchun is the place where Yuan Shu hoarded a large army, and Liu Xuande in Xiapi of Xuzhou blocked his coveting several times, which is already extremely reluctant."

"Xuzhou can only be used as a containment defense, and other directions are the main attack route."

"In this way, Yuan Gongshu will deal with multiple paths at the same time, and he will inevitably lose sight of the other. This is also the safest way at the moment."

When Zhong Yao Ding Chong heard this, he wiped off his sweat and thought to himself that he was lucky.

There is also a loophole in Chen Gong's words. Cao Cao's strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao has been tricked, and now the water in the court has been muddied.

In this case, if everyone is dragged into the water, Meng Degong can wait for the opportunity to move!
The court once again fell into a tedious debate. A few days later, the Han court issued an edict to the world, saying that Yuan Shu's usurpation of the emperor's title was actually an act of rebellion and rebellion.

Leading the Great General, Lu Bu, Marquis of Wen, Cao Cao, Mu of Yanzhou, Lieutenant of Sili, Cao Cao, General of Zhengdong, Yuan Xi, Mu of Xuzhou, Liu Bei, Inspector of Yuzhou, Lieutenant of Qi, Marquis of Wu Cheng, Sun Ce, the prefect of Kuaiji, went all the way to conquer Yuan Shu's rebellion. !
As soon as this edict came out, the whole world was shaken, and everyone knew that the world was finally peaceful, and the flames of war were about to reignite.

And in this edict, if the first four of the five people who ordered him to send troops are still in order, the fifth person, Sun Ce, is far beyond everyone's expectations!

Half a month later, when Sun Ce got the news from the Han court, he was dancing sword with Zhou Yu. He threw the sword aside and said with a sneer, "This little emperor is very scheming!"

"This is tantamount to forcing me to break up with Yuan Shu immediately. It seems that he is not completely at ease with me, so he cut off my retreat like this!"

Zhou Yu also put away his sword and said, "It's just the emperor's mind."

"What's more, wouldn't Bo Fu also marry the daughter of the clan sent by the emperor years ago?"

Sun Ce sneered and said, "That being said, the conditions he offered are not very good."

"The official position of the riding captain is too low, it really looks down on me!"

Zhou Yu also agreed. Sun Ce now occupies more than half of Yangzhou, and it is reasonable to say that his power is much stronger than that of Liu Bei. In the end, there are only a mere captain of cavalry and prefect of Kuaiji, and Marquis Wu Cheng inherited it from Sun Jian.

The more Sun Ce said, the more angry he became, "I understood Han Ting's plan at a glance. This is putting me on the fire!"

"Yuan Shu will definitely be suspicious of me. I wanted to break up with him, but I'm not ready yet. If Han Ting doesn't say hello in advance, it's just cheating me!"

"And Mr. Qiao is also stupid. He even went back to Shouchun to meet Yuan Gonglu. I really don't know what he thinks!"
