Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 269 Xian Yufu

It's just that Liu Biao would let Cai Mao lead the army, which made Li Song very puzzled. Since he issued an edict in the name of the Son of Heaven, Liu Biao has often suppressed them.

As for the relationship between them by marriage, in the final analysis, Li Song would never believe it. In the face of power, even father and son would fight each other, let alone Cai Mao, a foreign relative.

"Could it be that Liu Biao and the Cai clan have already reconciled, Liu Biao is really a good idea." No wonder Li Song asked this question, after all, as the lord of Jingzhou, Liu Biao naturally didn't want his subordinates to expand their power and affect his rule.

Naturally, the actions of these gentry clans who took advantage of the so-called edicts of the Son of Heaven to justifiably grow bigger will be suppressed, especially the fastest-expanding Cai clan.

"That's not true. Liu Biao took this opportunity to weaken Cai Mao's power. After all, Huang Zu, who was able to fight against them, is dead. It may not be so easy for Liu Biao to suppress Cai Mao and others." Xu Maogong said, and said the truth understand.

Only now did Li Song know more about the nobles in Jingzhou. The reason why Liu Biao watched these nobles grow bigger was not because Liu Biao was powerless to suppress them, nor was he afraid of the emperor's edict. open.

Naturally, Liu Biao is not afraid. He is afraid of the intricate connections of Jingzhou gentry, which makes Liu Biao not dare to act recklessly. Whether it is an external force or an internal force, as long as it can maintain this delicate balance between him and the gentry, it is fine, and the others dare not have any delusions.

Jingzhou gentry is not only Liu Biao's heart disease, but also a problem that Li Song will solve in the future. Compared with these southern gentry, the northern gentry is relatively less troublesome.

"Report to Prime Minister! Youzhou Zuodu Liao General Xian Yufu sent someone to send an urgent report!" Just as Li Song and Li Song were discussing the affairs of Jingzhou, at this time, the guards outside the door came to report!
Xian Yufu?This man, Li Song, knew that he was originally a subordinate of Youzhou Mu Liuyu. In 193 AD (the fourth year of Chuping), Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu. The army in the army wants to avenge Liu Yu together.He united with Yan Rou, a native of Yan State who had a high prestige on weekdays, and elected him as Wuhuan Sima.Yan Rou summoned tens of thousands of Hu and Han people, and fought against Zou Dan, the prefect of Yuyang County appointed by Gongsun Zan, in the north of Lu County. Yan Rou won, killing Zou Dan and more than [-] of his men.King Wuhuan Qiao also led the Wuhuan people and Xianbei people, a total of more than [-] cavalry, followed Xianyufu to the south to meet Liu Yu's son Liu He, and joined forces with Yuan Shao's general Qu Yi, a total of [-] troops, to attack Gongsun Zan.He defeated Gongsun Zan in Baoqiu and beheaded more than [-] people.

Therefore, Dai, Guangyang, Shanggu, and Youbeiping counties raised troops one after another, killed the officials appointed by Gongsun Zan, and joined forces with Xian Yufu and Liu He's troops.Gongsun Zan's army has been defeated repeatedly.

From this matter, Xian Yufu was a loyal subordinate who never forgot to avenge his old master.

After Gongsun Zan's defeat, Xian Yufu was highly respected by his subordinates and the people, acting as the prefect. He had always had a good relationship with Tian Yu, so he appointed Tian Yu as the chief of the prefect.At that time there were many heroes, Xian Yufu didn't know who to follow.

So Xian Yufu appointed Shi Tianyu, the governor of the prefect, and Tian Yu analyzed the general situation of the world for Xian Yufu, and made a clear way for Xian Yufu. Xian Yufu followed his suggestion, led his subordinates to the court, and appointed Xian Yufu as Jianzhong General, in charge of the military affairs of the six counties of Youzhou.

Later, when the Battle of Guandu broke out ahead of schedule, Xian Yufu brought a group of followers all the way to the front line to visit him, and attached gifts, taking the opportunity to show his loyalty to him, thinking that Youzhou still needed someone like Xian Yufu, so he worshiped him As General Zuodu Liao, he was granted the title of Tinghou in Changxiang, and he was repatriated to Fubenzhou.

It's just that at this time, he sent an urgent report, did something happen in the north?Why didn't he receive Su Dingfang's report?Maybe it's a local problem, not Su Dingfang's business.

"Bring it up!" Thinking of this, Li Song shouted towards the door. A personal guard hurried in, knelt down on one knee, and raised something with both hands. Xu Chu, who was standing by the side, hurried forward to get the information, and turned around to come to Li Song. , Hand over the information to Li Song.

Li Song received the information from Xu Chu, Xu Chu retreated to his original position, Li Song waved his hand to let the guards back down, the guards got up and bowed their hands, and then retreated.

Li Song opened the information, and the content inside surprised him!This is an urgent information jointly sent by Su Dingfang, Zhang Yan and others in the name of Xian Yufu.

Karasuma has been chased by Su Dingfang's army and fled back to Liaoxi since its defeat at the foot of Beixin City.

It's just that I didn't expect that this time it turned out to be a report of sorrow instead of good news. Tadun sent heavy troops to guard the main road leading to Karasuma in western Liaoning to prevent the invasion of Su Dingfang and others, so that Su Dingfang and others often returned without success, and Karasuma He sent troops to plunder and harass all parts of Youzhou many times.

Seeing Li Song's unpredictable expression, Xu Maogong asked suspiciously: "Prime Minister! Why did Xian Yufu send an urgent report?"

"It's about Karasuma!" Li Song said helplessly after being woken up by Xu Maogong.

"The matter of Karasuma? Isn't General Su Dingfang going to conquer Karasuma?" Xu Maogong was also a little confused by these things. He preconceived that Su Dingfang and the others made great strides all the way and defeated Karasuma all the way, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with Xian Yufu. .

But they didn't know that Su Dingfang and the others were blocked outside Liaoxi, and the Karasuma army didn't fight them head-on. After harassing them from time to time, they left quickly, and by the way, the autumn wind was blowing all over Youzhou.

"You'll know if you read it yourself." Li Song raised the intelligence report in Yang's hand and asked Xu Chu to show it to Xu Maogong. Xu Maogong thanked him and took it to read.

They never expected that it was Karasuma who attacked Xian Yufu, and Xian Yufu, together with Su Dingfang and others, jointly sent an urgent report requesting reinforcements.

Since the defeat of Karasuma, they have used stragglers to harass Youzhou everywhere. If they don't fight Su Dingfang's army head-on, even if they are besieged by the army, they will not lose anything. Once they find that the situation is not good, they will leave quickly, making Su Dingfang and others exhausted .

Even Xian Yufu was harassed by Karasuma's small force many times. People were often looted by Karasuma cavalry who suddenly appeared, but when the local army arrived, these Karasuma cavalry fled immediately.

If things go on like this, everyone in Youzhou is in danger, for fear that Karasuma cavalry will appear to plunder them at any time, so Xian Yufu gathers troops to encircle and suppress these Karasuma cavalry, but is defeated by Tadun, and has to join Su Dingfang to jointly submit a petition call for help.
