Chapter 44 Liu Bei's Choice

Gongsun Zan led thousands of fine cavalry to charge out of Guanzicheng, making the already chaotic Wuhuan military camp even more chaotic.

When Gongsun Zan met Gongsun Yuehou who was fighting hard in the camp, the operation to rescue Gongsun Zan was successfully completed.

Under the vigorous suggestions of Liu Bei and others, Gongsun Zan finally gave up the idea of ​​fighting the Wuhuan people at this time.

Although the Wuhuan cavalry was in a panic at this time, the main force was still there. After these Wuhuan people returned to normal, they would still have a huge numerical advantage compared with Liu Bei and others. At this time, the battle with the Wuhuan people was very

May be surrounded by Wuhuan people again.

Liu Bei and others arrived here after many days of rapid march. A night's rest was not enough for these soldiers to return to normal. Gongsun Zan's thousands of soldiers had been besieged for a month. At present, everyone

They are all showing their fatigue.

If these soldiers are expected to fight against the Wuhuan people, the probability of victory is not high.

The reason why Gongsun Zan was successfully rescued this time was because he was caught by surprise and was unprepared. When these two points do not exist, there is no point in continuing the fight.

But this time, the Wuhuan people were beaten so hard that Liu Bei and his party did not encounter any obstacles when they returned from Guanzi City to Wu Ending City.

****

In March of the fifth year of Zhongping (AD 188), Liu Yan, the general of the Han Dynasty, wrote to Emperor Ling because of the constant war in the world, suggesting that he should change the governor's position to the position of prefecture shepherd in order to strengthen his duties. In order to suppress the repeated peasant uprisings, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wrote to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

According to Liu Yan's proposal, the governor was changed to the governor of the state. Therefore, the governor became the chief executive who was above the county. He held the administrative power of the state and held a very important position. From then on, the governor and the governor each occupied one area, which was like a separatist regime.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty appointed Liu Yu as the shepherd of Youzhou because Wuhuan in Youzhou often rebelled, because Liu Yu had a high prestige among the people of Youzhou and Wuhuan people, and because Gongsun Zan failed to completely wipe out the rebels this time.

Zhang Ju was completely put down, and Zhang Chun rebelled.

After Liu Yu accepted the appointment from the imperial court, he immediately took the order to Jixian County, Youzhou. Along the way north, he saw that the people were deeply affected by Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion, and their lives were extremely difficult. Thinking of the life of the people of Youzhou when he was the governor of Youzhou, he remembered

Looking at the lives of the people in Youzhou now, Liu Yu felt doubly sad.

Before Liu Bei and others returned to Wu Ending City, the people sent by Liu Yu to greet them were already waiting for them in Wu Ending City. When Liu Bei learned that Liu Yu had been appointed as Youzhou Mu, the expedition to Guanzi City brought about

The fatigue suddenly disappeared, and I was so anxious that I wanted to go to Jixian immediately and meet Liu Yu.

A few days later, after everything in Wujing City was settled, Liu Bei immediately led his troops and Gongsun Zan to Jixian County to meet Liu Yu.

On the way to Jixian, after setting up camp at night, Chen Meng came to Liu Bei's camp and met with Liu Bei. The two talked for more than half an hour. After Chen Meng left, he only heard Liu Bei say lightly:

"If I follow what my fourth brother said, then my wish is not far from coming true!"

After finishing speaking, a heroic look was clearly revealed on his face.

After arriving in Jixian County, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan went to the Mu Mansion in Youzhou to meet Liu Yu, while Chen Meng and others returned to the residence Liu Yu had arranged for them.

"Fourth brother, do you think that this time our eldest brother has made such a big contribution, what kind of official position will the court give to our eldest brother?" Guan Yu asked.

"In my opinion, it's okay to be a state shepherd. Haha." Zhang Fei said.

"Yide really dares to say that the position of state pastor can only be made by the person whom the emperor trusts the most." Zilong said.

"That's right, that's right." Tian Yu agreed several times.

"This time, we rescued Captain Qi from the Wuhuan people. That must be a big contribution. As for how high the official can be, it depends on what the two elder brothers say." Chen Meng said.

"how to say?"

After the other four people heard this, they didn't know why and hurriedly asked Chen Meng.

"Haha, this matter is extremely easy! Now the eldest brother Wu has second brother, third brother, Zilong, Guorang, Wen has me and Xianhe, his strength is extraordinary. Youzhou Mu and Qi Duwei must both want to

Take the eldest brother under your command and work for him. Let me ask you, what do you think the eldest brother will choose?"

"I guess your lord must follow the Cavalry Commander. Now that the Cavalry Commander has strong troops and horses, it will be easier to make achievements by following him," Tian Yu said.

"No, I think the lord will follow Youzhou Mu. Youzhou Mu is now a member of the royal family, and the lord is a descendant of the royal family. It is more beneficial for the lord to follow Youzhou Mu," Zhao Yun said.

"Humph! You two are still too young." Guan Yu snorted coldly.

When Chen Meng heard this, his face suddenly became happy and he asked:

"Second brother, do you have a different opinion?"

"I think these two are not heroes! My eldest brother should not follow these two people. My eldest brother is the real hero."

After Chen Meng heard Guan Yu's words, he couldn't help but admire Guan Yu. This second brother of his was really extraordinary.

"What the second brother said is absolutely true. I have suggested to the eldest brother not to follow these two people, but to develop independently. Now our eldest brother has a certain reputation and a certain strength. The only thing our eldest brother lacks now is that he has no place to stay.

Department. And this time, the achievements of annihilating the rebels and rescuing the Cavalry Captain will surely give the elder brother a place to stay."

It is now the end of 188 AD, and Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty has not been able to survive for a few days. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty died, and He Jin appointed Liu Bian as the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Then He Jin was killed by Shi Changshi, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, etc.

People rushed into the palace and massacred the eunuchs, then Dong Zhuo entered the capital, deposed Liu Bian, the young emperor of Han Dynasty, and established Liu Xie, the first emperor of Han Dynasty. So many important things were announced in the same year of 189 AD. The changes were so fast that it was unimaginable.

I can't believe it at all.

Then all the princes in the world came together to suppress Dong Zhuo. With such a good opportunity to become famous, Liu Bei would definitely not give up at this time, and it was impossible to give up. However, if he wanted to shine in this opportunity, he must have a certain degree of strength.

A great chaos is coming. If you want to do something in this great chaos, you must have enough strength. The prerequisite for having strength is to have territory.

Once you have a territory, you will have a source of income, and then you can recruit troops, and then you will have the strength to compete for this great world.

After Cao Cao had Yanzhou, he began to develop and expand, conquering all the way, and finally unified the north; Sun Ce captured Yangzhou for Sun Quan, which gave Sun Quan the strength to arm-wrestle with Cao Cao.

As for Liu Bei's territory, Chen Meng had already planned it for him. Pingyuan County in Pingyuan County was the territory Chen Meng designated for Liu Bei.

Pingyuan County is the administrative seat of Pingyuan Kingdom today. It was called Pingyuan County because Pingyuan County at that time was a fiefdom owned by a descendant of the royal family. This made Liu Bei, who was also a descendant of the royal family, feel much more friendly after he went there.

Another point is that the location of the Pingyuan Kingdom is very good. It borders Jizhou to the north, Yanzhou to the south, and the hinterland of Qingzhou to the east. This is an important geographical location that can be attacked and defended. In history, Gongsun Zan appointed Liu Bei as Pingyuan Prime Minister, but that was not the case.

Appointed at will.
