Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 16 Secret Letter
"What are you talking about! Hua Xiong is actually dead, and he was beheaded by the generals under Han Fu, governor of Jizhou? This Han Fu, I think he doesn't want to live anymore!"

In Luoyang's prime minister's mansion, after Dong Zhuo got the news, he was furious, wishing to tear Han Fu's body to pieces.

Li Su and Li Ru were standing there, and they didn't dare to interrupt at all, because Dong Zhuo was now in a fit of anger.

Only when Dong Zhuo calmed down, did Li Ru dare to reveal his plan, and he also got a secret letter.

Although it is not known which person among the [-] princes sent this secret letter, one thing is certain is that this person has enmity with Yuan Shao.

The things mentioned in the secret letter are completely intended to blackmail Yuan Shao and make him notorious.

And this matter is very good for the Xiliang Army, and it can also hit the morale of the Eighteenth Route Princes' coalition forces.

A few minutes later, Dong Zhuo calmed down, and the rare treasures in the court were almost destroyed. Dong Zhuo sat down and panted heavily.

"Prime Minister, in fact, I have a strategy that can hit the morale of the princes' coalition forces, and it can also ruin the reputation of the alliance leader Yuan Shao."

Li Ru showed a wretched smile, which made Li Su feel that this guy was really an old man.

Dong Zhuo, who was relieved, also calmed down. He took a deep breath and waved to Li Ru.

When Li Ru saw that the prime minister told him to come up with a plan quickly, he immediately smiled, that kind of smile was really sinister.

"Prime Minister, it stands to reason that we should behead Yuan Kai, the uncle of Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition of princes, to deter the enemy, but Ru thought of a better way."

"We can give Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Kai the title of Jinjue, and at the same time spread the news in Yuan Kai's name, and hand over the Yuan family's foundation to Yuan Shu in Runan."

"In this way, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao among the princes will have fierce conflicts, and the coalition forces of the princes will collapse without attack."

"Afterwards, we can also send someone to pretend to be Yuan Shao's dead soldier, assassinate Yuan Kai, and leave behind the evidence that Yuan Shao sent someone to commit the crime, so that Yuan Shao can't clear it up even if he jumps into the Yellow River!"

Li Ru smiled sinisterly. In fact, he did not come up with this strategy, but someone sent him a letter to point him out.

It has to be said that the person who sent the letter was indeed very resourceful, and Li Ru extremely suspected that the person who sent the letter was sent by Yuan Shu.

After Dong Zhuo heard Li Ru's words, he immediately smiled, even though he had planned to kill Yuan Wei directly just now.

But now listening to what Li Ru said, Dong Zhuo definitely made a good strategy, which could suppress Yuan Shao's reputation.

In this way, there must be some people in the allied forces of the princes to reject Yuan Shao, and the eighteen princes may not be able to last for a long time.

"Okay! Just do as you said, first confer the title of Jinjue on Yuan Kai, and then force him to write a document and send it to the coalition of princes, so that Yuan Shu will be the next head of the Yuan family."

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed, this strategy is really good, it can make many people think Yuan Shao is a despicable villain.

Maybe this trick can't fool the discerning people who really have brains, but how many discerning people can there be.

This strategy can greatly reduce Yuan Shao's reputation among the aristocratic families, and it can also suppress the eighteen princes.

And the person who came up with this strategy was among the allied armies of the princes, discussing matters under Han Wu's tent in the Jizhou camp.

"Feng Xiao, I heard that your strategy has already started to be implemented, and I have already understood it."

"However, this strategy is easy to be seen by people with discerning eyes. I am afraid that if it is discovered, it will have a greater impact on us?"

Han Wu frowned slightly, he really wanted to suppress Yuan Shao, but such a strategy was really easy to see through.

Once you are a resourceful counselor, it is easy to see through this trick, and it will be very troublesome at that time.

After hearing Han Wu's words, Guo Jia smiled slightly, then shook his head lightly, not agreeing with Han Wu's words.

"My lord, although many counselors can easily see through this trick, the problem is that the princes were not deceived by this trick."

"My lord, what we want to deceive is the aristocratic family in Jizhou. They really want Yuan Shao to take over Jizhou and drive you and the governor of Jizhou away."

"Moreover, it is estimated that many counselors are also plotting to take refuge in Yuan Shao. What we have to do is to make those aristocratic families doubt Yuan Shao's character, and that is enough."

Guo Jia showed a confident smile. He was scheming against Yuan Shao, and he had already thought of all the next plans.

This is just the first step, to destroy Yuan Shao's prestige first, and the second step is to destroy Yuan Shao's base!

Yuan Shao now controls Bohai County in Jizhou, and his generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou are both in Bohai County.

But for Guo Jia, dealing with Yan Liangwen Chou can be said to be a piece of cake, the key is that the Jizhou Army lacks a team of surprise soldiers.

The Jizhou army needs a force that can travel long distances and rush to Bohai County immediately after the alliance of princes is disbanded.

With this force, Guo Jia would be sure to directly occupy Yuan Shao's Bohai County and drive them to the unowned Bingzhou.

"Well! Since Feng Xiao is absolutely sure, then this matter will be handled by you."

"It is estimated that Dong Zhuo will gather a large army to stop the coalition forces of the princes. My father and I still need to deal with these things."

Han Wu frowned slightly. He knew that Lu Bu, the strongest general in the Three Kingdoms period, was coming, and this was also a good opportunity for the Jizhou Army to make a name for itself.

In Luoyang Prime Minister's Mansion, Dong Zhuo personally ordered Li Jue and Guo Si Xingye to rush to Sishuiguan to guard and not to fight.

Dong Zhuo led the troops himself, and led Li Ru, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou to guard Hulao Pass, while Lu Bu was the vanguard to attack the Eighteenth Route Allied Forces.

Moreover, the imperial decree to ennoble Yuan Kai has already come down. Although it is well known that the current emperor is also controlled by Dong Zhuo, this is an imperial decree after all.

And at the same time, Dong Zhuo sent troops to surround Yuan Kai's mansion and forced Yuan Kai to write the following letter, passing the Yuan family's foundation to Yuan Shu.

This incident was immediately publicized, and the Eighteenth Route Princes' Allied Forces also received the news, and there was a sudden chaos.

Especially Yuan Shao, he is furious in his camp now, while Yuan Shu is preparing a banquet in his camp.

It can be said that Yuan Kai's documents have attracted the attention of many aristocratic families, and many aristocratic families that originally supported Yuan Shao have also begun to waver and hesitate.

Most of the power of the Yuan family was originally in the northern part of Yangzhou and Yuzhou, and now the position of the head of the Yuan family has been passed on to Yuan Shu, which made Yuan Shu reach the sky in one step.

Yuan Shao was not originally the son of the Yuan family, and now he does not have an advantage in terms of prestige, which can be said to be worse.

In the early morning of the next day, the princes of the Eighteenth Route got together again to discuss the strategy of marching, but Han Wu still followed his father.

"Everyone, Dong Zhuo is currently leading an army to guard the Hulao Pass, while Li Jue and Guo Si are two generals who are sticking to the Sishui Pass and cannot retreat."

"The fierce general Lu Bu is the vanguard officer. He personally set up camp under the Hulao Pass and launched an attack on us at any time."

Cao Cao stood beside Yuan Shao, and now he felt that Yuan Shao was very sad, because Yuan Shao could be said to have received a big blow.

All the power of the Yuan family belongs to Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao is now just a small Bohai prefect.

Moreover, Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, is not weak, not to mention that his son is probably not an idler, and it may be even more difficult for Yuan Shao to seize Jizhou.

Cao Cao thought of this and felt sorry for Yuan Shao, although he knew that there was probably a conspiracy in this matter.

"Dong Zhuo personally stationed troops at Hulao Pass. I think half of the troops can be divided up to attack. I wonder if anyone is willing to go there?"

Yuan Shao's face was cloudy, he was in a very bad mood now, and the other princes knew it well.

But after all, the crusade against Dong Zhuo is a matter of great credit. Even though Yuan Shao is now almost unable to secure the position of leader, there are still people who are willing to fight.

Han Fu was not in a hurry to fight this time. On the one hand, the Jizhou army had already made great contributions and beheaded Hua Xiong.

Moreover, Han Wu did not agree to go to battle now, and the Xiliang army was considered to be very aggressive, so it would be a disadvantage to deal with them now.

Wang Kuang, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, Yuan Yi, Kong Rong, Zhang Yang, Tao Qian and Gongsun Zan called for battle one after another, and the princes of the Eight Routes attacked Hulao Pass.

Cao Cao was in charge of the exchanges and responded, while the other princes continued to stand still and check and balance the guards of Sishui Pass.

That morning, the princes of the Eight Routes raised their troops and set off, and Wang Kuang was the first to rush to Hulao Pass.

Han Wu rested in the camp of Jizhou, and Tian Feng and Guo Jia discussed in Han Wu's tent if they would send troops.

Han Wu knew the result a long time ago. The eight princes are definitely not Lu Bu's opponents and will definitely be defeated.

And Guo Jia was still plotting how to continue to attack Yuan Shao in terms of prestige, but he didn't report it.

Dian Wei and Yu Wencheng outside the big tent are like door gods, standing guard at the door of the big tent.

Han Fu also saw that Han Wu had recruited a fierce general, and it seemed that his strength was not inferior to Dian Wei's.

This made Han Fu even more curious, why his son was always able to spot strong generals, but he didn't have this ability.

But at this moment, the princes of the Eight Routes were defeated and fled back. Gongsun Zan and others were alright, but Qiao Mao, Yuan Yi and Wang Kuang suffered heavy losses.

It can be said that it is embarrassing to be defeated by Lu Bu directly. None of the eight princes is an opponent of Lu Bu, the pioneer of Xiliang.

The allied forces of the princes also immediately beat drums, calling all the princes to gather for a meeting and discuss countermeasures.

Han Wu smiled, and he stood up immediately, and after walking out of the big tent, he waved to Dian Wei and Yu Wencheng, asking them to follow.

Inside the big tent, the eighteen princes had already arrived, but outside the tent, Lu Bu was constantly fighting.

Even, Lu Bu arrogantly used sharp arrows to shoot off the flags of the eighteen princes one by one, and now he was about to shoot Tao Qian's flag.

"Lu Bu is invincible! This guy is indeed worthy of the title of flying general, he is truly amazing!"

Wang Kuang sat there disheveled and sighed leisurely, while the Xiliang army shouted loudly outside.

Just now, Mu Shun, the prefect of Shangdang, went out to fight privately, and was stabbed by Lu Bu in one round.

Beihai prefect Kong Rong immediately ordered Wu Anguo to fight, but Wu Anguo was not Lu Bu's opponent, and his wrist was cut off after a dozen rounds.

The princes of the Eight Routes rushed to rescue Wu Anguo, and only then did they hold Wu Anguo's life. All the princes were lamenting.

When Lu Bu saw soldiers from the Eight Route Princes rushing out to rescue Wu Anguo, he didn't want to fight, so he retreated directly.

Han Wu has not spoken all the time, he is paying attention to the three of Liu Bei, and cannot let them take the credit.

"Lü Bu is indeed brave and invincible. Please go back to the village to discuss a good strategy. If you can capture Lu Bu, it will be easy to kill Dong Zhuo!"

Cao Cao quickly ordered to withdraw his troops, and at the same time invited other princes to go back to Dazhai to discuss strategies and capture Lu Bu.
