Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 8
After resolving these matters, Wu had Xiang Yu, Wen had Liu Bowen, and after the general administration was handed over to the two, they became hands-off shopkeepers and lived a leisurely life.

"My lord! The scout I sent to Luoyang sent back a message!" Liu Bowen hurriedly found Li Song who was fishing leisurely by a river.

"Military teacher! What's the matter of being so surprised? Look, the fish are scared away by you."

"What did you say just now? Luoyang? What happened to Luoyang? Did something happen?" Li Song said as he baited the fishhook.

"My lord! According to the report from the scouts! Lu Bu killed his adoptive father Ding Yuan, and accepted Dong Zhuo as his father. This is a golden opportunity! My lord is about to be taken care of," Liu Bowen said.

In this year, He Jin, who was indecisive, was killed by Shi Changshi, and the city of Luoyang was in chaos. The young emperor and King Chen Liu escaped from the palace to seek refuge, and were met by Dong Pang, who was one step ahead.

So Dong Fat took Emperor Shao and King Chenliu back to the palace. Dong Fat had the idea of ​​abolishing the Emperor, but Ding Yuan objected. There was nothing he could do about Ding Yuan for a while.

Dong Pang's subordinates suggested that Lv Bu kill Ding Yuan, join Dong Pang, and directly recognize Dong Pang as his adoptive father. Dong Pang annexed Ding Yuan's army, and his strength increased greatly. From then on, Lv Bu had a family with three surnames slave title.

Dong Fat, who was no longer hindered, abolished the young emperor Liu Bian, made Chenliu Wang the new emperor, proclaimed himself prime minister and grand master, and monopolized the power with unlimited power.

"Military Master, what does Ding Yuan's death have to do with me? Why didn't I see any chance here?" Li Song said lazily.

"My lord, this is of course a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Liu Bowen smiled.

"Oh! How do you say it?" Li Song said to Liu Bowen behind him without moving his head while holding a fishing rod.

"Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, is dead, and Bingzhou can be said to be without a leader. We are the ones who occupy Bingzhou. Based on this, we will be able to rule the world just around the corner."

"When Ding Yuan went to Luoyang, he didn't take all his troops to Luoyang. We can take Ding Yuan's old troops who stayed in Bingzhou under our command to expand our strength."

"Bingzhou is bordered by Youzhou, Yizhou, and Sili. If you station troops in Hanoi, you can capture Sili. If you take advantage of the chaos, you can take Yizhou and Youzhou in the north. With Jixian as the capital, this hegemony can be achieved!" Liu Bowen explained.

"However, military advisor, don't forget that when Emperor Ling was alive, in order to curb the growth of Dong Zhuo's power, he ordered him to be the shepherd of Bingzhou. So strictly speaking, Dong Zhuo is the legal master of Bingzhou."

"What's more, today's Dong Zhuo is not what it used to be. The strength is beyond our ability to compete. In addition, he has established a new emperor, who has all the power. With the emperor in hand, who is his opponent." Li Song reminded.

"This is what I call an opportunity. My lord, don't miss this opportunity! Now that Dong Zhuo is going against the grain, it's time to attack him."

"My lord, as long as you accept the old troops left by Ding Yuan, strengthen our strength, garrison troops in Hanoi, spread the message to the world, recruit all the princes from all walks of life to attack Dong Zhuo, use the army of justice to fight against rebels, and help the Han Dynasty, righteousness is in hand. There will be no disadvantages!" Liu Bowen said.

These days, the banner of the Han Dynasty is the mainstream. No matter who it is, as long as they master this banner, they will be invincible. On the contrary, whoever abandons this banner will face catastrophe and even exterminate the entire family. catastrophe.

Therefore, in history, Cao Cao held the trump card of Xiandi in his hand, so that he could go smoothly and finally unify the north. It is true that with the emperor's card, justice lies.

"The military adviser is right! It's just what we should do to maximize our benefits." Li Song put down his fishing rod, got up and turned to Liu Bowen.

"My lord, don't worry. On the way here to see you, I've thought of a countermeasure. It's not difficult to win Bingzhou, and it's not a problem to take over Ding Yuan's former troops." Liu Bowen stroked his beard, shook his feather fan, and smiled.

"Oh! I don't know what kind of trick it is, let's hear it from the military adviser." After hearing this, Li Song's eyes lit up, he squinted his eyes happily, rubbed his hands, and said to Liu Bowen.

"Well! I hope my lord will let me play tricks, and then the lord will see the outcome. My lord only needs to do what I say, and my lord can win Bingzhou without any effort." Liu Bowen said.

"Since that's the case, I won't force you to be a military advisor. Come here! Pack up and go home." Seeing that Liu Bowen was so determined, Li Song didn't ask any more questions. He just planned to go back because he had no intention of fishing.

"Let's go back with the military commander! You can also talk to me on the way to relieve boredom." Although Li Song didn't ask, he felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching. He wanted to see if he could get something out of it along the way. .

A person as intelligent as Liu Bowen naturally knows the little things in his heart, but he doesn't point out, "It's really an honor for Bowen to be able to walk with the lord, how dare you refuse."

"That's a good feeling! Let's go, walk all the way back, and you can enjoy the scenery along the way." Li Song took Liu Bowen's hand and walked back. After prying out the answer he wanted, Liu Bowen didn't let go.

"Military Master, although Ding Yuan is dead, his strong generals are still there, such as Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, who had a close relationship with Lu Bu in the past. Can they agree to submit to me?" Li Song returned to the prefect's mansion in a hurry Ask Liu Bowen.

"My lord, don't worry about this matter! I will go there in person and persuade these two people, so that they will be willing to serve you as your lord." Liu Bowen said.

"Okay! I don't know when the military division will leave?" Li Song said. Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were both rare generals in the Three Kingdoms period, especially Zhang Liao, who was the fifth best general of Cao Wei. In this way, it can be regarded as prying Cao Cao's corner.

"In order to have long nights and many dreams, I set off immediately to persuade them, and I am here to bid farewell to the lord!" Liu Bowen said.

"Okay! The military division will go back early, but if the military division leaves, what will happen to Bingzhou?" Li Song said.

"My lord, don't worry! I've written down a plan and handed it over to General Xiang Yu. My lord just needs to wait at ease. Bingzhou is not in hand yet. It's getting late. Bowen said goodbye." Liu Bowen said.

"Okay! I'm here waiting for good news from the military advisor." Li Song sent Liu Bowen out.

Under Liu Bowen's clever plan, Li Song took the entire Bingzhou into his hands without any effort, and took the opportunity to occupy the two counties of Hedong and Hanoi in Sili.

Sometimes, as a leader, as long as you don't hold back, you can help your subordinates the most. During this period, what makes Li Song happy is not only owning the territory of Bingzhou, but what makes him even more happy is that his reputation continues to rise.
