Chapter four hundred and eighty second talk is useless
"Jue Zhao is born from moisture, and Xiji is born from wine." [Liezi Tianrui]
"It doesn't matter who it is now!"
General Shi Tianfeng impatiently interrupted Guo Tu's lament: "The imperial court specializes in calculations. Before the situation is decided, it will think about scheming ministers and calculating the gains and losses after the war. Is this the behavior of a wise king and a wise minister?"
Guo Tu was dissatisfied and said: "The emperor of Chang'an has good plans and has succeeded in controlling the crowd, but he has not been good at military affairs. He has only been trying to become powerful for many years. Now that they have mobilized their troops and horses with great momentum, they naturally have the skills to predict it."
It will take a long time. As for their short-sightedness, we should discuss it in detail. Otherwise, how could we know that Liu Yu's situation today has been ignored by the imperial court?"
"Now is not the time to deal with Liu Yu." Tian Feng didn't buy this argument. He snorted and said to himself: "The army from the south has already entered Linqiu and will arrive at Cangtingjin soon, but our army is still lingering.
In Hejian, the most important thing at the moment is to eliminate Gongsun Zan as soon as possible, and then lead the Wuhuan, Wuwan, Hu soldiers, Youzhou and other troops south to Dongwuyang, and be sure to stop the southern army on the bank of the Yellow River! This battle must be carried out quickly, and the battle will be huge.
Sima and General Zhengnan have already marched between Xu and Huai. Cao Cao is in dire straits. As long as our army wins in one battle, the world will be settled!"
As he spoke, Tian Feng ignored how ugly Guo Tu and others looked, and said coldly: "The war is about to begin, so what are the opinions of the Chang'an court on Liu Yu? Regardless of whether this person is Zang or not, what is there to worry about?"
Although Yuan Shao had proclaimed King Pingyuan as emperor at this time, the system was primitive and many aspects were blank, especially the court in Chang'an had not yet been completely characterized. On the one hand, they believed that Liu Shuo was a relative of Emperor Xiaohuan, and there were doubts about the emperor's bloodline.
However, the other party did not dare to deny the legitimacy of the other party out of guilt and timidity. In a vague manner, they only referred to the other party as the "Chang'an Emperor" and "Chang'an Court". In fact,
Still regard the other party as a legitimate regime.
As for the "Great Sima" and "General Zhengnan" that Tian Feng refers to, they respectively refer to Yuan Shu and Yuan Tan. In order to make his younger brother work hard, Yuan Shao generously worshiped him as the Great Sima and granted him the title of Xuzhou Bo.
Ranking above the Three Dukes, even Yuan Tan, the general who conquered the south, had to obey the orders of his uncle Yuan Shu. Now Yuan Shu and Yuan Tan each led their troops into Xuzhou and fought fiercely with Cao Liu.
However, Yuan Shao, the main force, is still stranded in Hebei. Once the time is delayed, not only will Yuan Shu misunderstand that Yuan Shao intends to watch the fire from the other side, but it will also make the war between Xu and Huai fall short.
That's why Tian Feng was so eager to discuss the march at this moment. In his opinion, now is not the time to discuss whether there is any discord between Liu Yu and the court, but to make a quick decision and eliminate the trouble behind Gongsun Zan as soon as possible.
Ignoring Liu Yu, Zhang Liao and other troops who were invading from the west, they defended with all their strength. Then the whole army went south, attacked Yanxu and fought a decisive battle with the imperial court.
Although Yuan Shao highly recognized Tian Feng's strategy, he really didn't like the way the other party expressed himself. Why should he hold his neck high to show his strength when he could clearly speak well? When Yuan Shao was still an ordinary scholar, he didn't like this kind of person who dared to speak out.
The courtier who strongly remonstrated sincerely believed that this kind of courtier really had the character of the ancient ministers. But once he became the lord, he didn't like having such people under his command. Although it was useful, it always made people feel uncomfortable.
angry.
On the other hand, people like Guo Tu and Pang Ji are different. They have brains and can speak. It is particularly comfortable to hear the same truth from their mouths. Even though Guo Tu's conversation just now seems to have contributed to the prestige of others and belittled his own future.
, but Yuan Shao was not displeased in view of Guo Tu's words.
Guo Tu couldn't stand Tian Feng's frivolity and contempt, and he couldn't think of anything to say to refute him. Pang Ji, the marching commander and army guard, came forward to help Guo Tu and said sarcastically: "Tian Feng is indeed very wise! If everyone in the Tian family is
So, why aren’t the Central Plains covered with yellow flags?”
He deliberately mentioned Tian Feng's relatives, Tian Fen, the governor of Yanzhou. The last time he, Zang Hong, Zhang Miao and others planned to capture Yanzhou, they failed. Now both of them are dead. Only he fled to Hebei in fear of the army. Yuan Shao hated him.
Tian Feng was disgraced because he had already been imprisoned for failing to do things well, because he strongly supported the plan of liaising with powerful men to overthrow Yanzhou.
Now Yuan Shao did not vent his anger on Tian Feng. Tian Feng also prided himself on being upright and not afraid of villains. Instead, he was worried that Yuan Shao would contact Ju Sue because of this. Although Ju Sue was still trusted by Yuan Shao and entrusted him to guard Ye City,
Although he held the position of Governor of the Supervisory Army, Jujun, Jushou’s nephew, was already the general of the imperial court’s southern army, Huben Zhonglang, and would serve as the main force in this battle. When the two armies officially fight, will Yuan Shao really be so generous?
And Yuan Shao had seen enough of their cynicism. His eyes were searching deeply among the advisers and generals, but he still couldn't find anyone. He couldn't help but ask: "Where is Chen Kongzhang?"
The debate on the court died down for a while, and after a while of silence, Guo Tu turned to Yuan Shao, cupped his hands and said, "I remember that Chen Kongzhang claimed to be ill not long after he stationed with the army."
"He was well when he came, and he was not treated badly along the way. How could he be sick?" At this time, Yuan Shao was not as tolerant of scholars as before. He snorted coldly and urged: "Go and call the doctor quickly.
, please come over temporarily if there is no serious problem."
Everyone looked at each other, and they all knew very well why Chen Lin excused herself from illness. It was simply that after Yuan Shao proclaimed himself the emperor of Pingyuan, he immediately ordered Chen Lin, who was good at writing, to write a paper expounding on orthodoxy and righteousness and crusade.
A message from the Chang'an court. Although Chen Lin didn't know much about military affairs, she could tell the difference between the strong and the weak. At this juncture, she wrote a message for Yuan Shao to criticize him. If the Yuan family fell, her own life would be lost.
If he writes well, he will be an accomplice; if he writes poorly, Yuan Shao will be dissatisfied and his literary reputation will be diminished. Chen Linsi did not think of a perfect way, so she had to come up with the trick of pretending to be sick and send it to
I hoped that Yuan Shao couldn't wait to use the appeal and would find someone else to write it for him, but he didn't escape anyway.
The person who invited Chen Lin was a scribe wearing a crimson headdress, named Zhang Jin, who was from Nanyang, Jingzhou. He was once a retainer of General He Jin, and then switched to Yuan Shao, and played a big role in the plan to eradicate the eunuchs.
. After entering Hebei, this man used his Taoism to advocate the change of moral destiny and the theory of fire declining and earth prospering. Even Yuan Shao called him affectionately: "Zhang Jun."
Yuan Shao first ignored Chen Lin, who was pretending to be coy, and said softly: "The message Zhang Jun wrote yesterday is really impressive and impressive. He first discussed the prophecy, and then discussed the righteousness of the country's succession, and King Chen Liu
In Chang'an, there were many mistakes such as poor governance of the people and frequent wars. The moral destiny had changed. The fault lies with Jiedu Tinghou's family and with the leadership of Liwuhou. "
After being praised by him, Zhang Jin thanked him unhurriedly. Chen Lin heard from the side that Yuan Shao had asked him to write a letter of apology. Her expression relaxed, and the huge stone in her heart also fell to the ground. Even if Yuan Shao called him here intentionally.
Provoking him, Chen Lin could only feel lucky to have escaped.
But Yuan Shao's attack on Chen Lin didn't stop there: "I know that Kong Zhang is not in good health, so he shouldn't have given orders to others, but there is really something that must be done by Kong Zhang now. Please bear in mind the old friendship and do your best."
"
Chen Lin didn't know why, so she reached out and took a letter asking for help.
"This is a letter from Gongsun Xu to Gongsun Zan. Kong Zhang doesn't have to think too much. He can just change a few sentences and make a copy." This is to use Chen Lin, a scribe, as an ordinary swordsman and penman.
