Chapter 168 The dust settles

"Yuan Chang, the emperor is young and does not understand the dangers of human beings in the world. Why don't you, the ministers, give you any advice? How can it be that the decree of conquering ministers on behalf of heaven can be made just by saying it?"

"It has been nearly 400 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty. Has there ever been a precedent like this? The emperor was kidnapped by Dong's thieves and went to Guanzhong, leaving behind a man to conquer on behalf of heaven in the Central Plains. What is this?"

"Yeah yeah……"

The meeting was still going on, but many people had no intention of continuing to listen. They all left behind their deputies and left the table. They gathered in the distance and surrounded Zhong Yao in the middle.

"Everyone, everyone, please listen to what Yao has to say..." Zhong Yao was so dizzy with everyone talking that he raised his hands in the air and shouted several times before suppressing everyone's voices.

"Although the emperor is young, he is very assertive. As ministers, we can only persuade each other with earnest words. What can we do if we can't persuade you? You are not in the capital, but you should know something about it, right? On that day, Wang Yu made a big fuss in Hedong.

When the emperor saw Thief Dong running away in embarrassment, he laughed loudly in the Jinluan Palace!"

"When I later learned about Wang Yu's identity, His Majesty paid even more attention to him. The princes allied themselves to challenge Dong with great momentum, but no results were achieved for a long time. Even if a few people rose up to fight, they could only return in vain. Only the Wang family

Father and son are active and have many achievements. His Majesty has long regarded him as a good general of ZTE, so is it any wonder that he is awarded a reward by decree?"

After saying that, Zhong Yao spread his hands and said helplessly: "Even if Yao has the ability of Su Qin and Zhang Yi, how can he persuade the emperor?"

Zhong Yao's words were justified, but no one let him go so easily. This reward was indeed too high, and no one could take it calmly.

"Even so..." The first one to attack was Xun Yu.

"Although Wang Yu has all kinds of miraculous qualities, after all, he is only in his weak years, and his character and character are still uncertain. Although he is somewhat loyal now, who knows what he will be like in the future? Even Huo Qiaoqi back then, wasn't it because of his youthful suddenness?

He raised his position to the point where he became arrogant and arrogant. This brought disaster upon himself? With this decree, Wang Yu's authority was as great as that of the emperor! This son used troops and... caused trouble in the world. Wouldn't he be more powerful than the traitor Dong?

?”

Dong Zhao also shook his head and said: "Brother Yuanchang, what you said is unreasonable. Mencius said: If you have serious faults, you should give advice. If you repeat it and don't listen, you will change your throne. When the emperor takes the throne... cough

Hey, Brother Yuanchang, even if you can’t dissuade me from this kind of obvious chaos, you don’t have to obey it! Do you think that obeying everything means being loyal and repaying service? Brother Yuanchang, you really disappoint me."

The celebrities were so frightened that poor Zhong Yao became a punching bag.

Faced with everyone's doubts, Zhong Yao suddenly sneered: "Gongren, you are also a person who has always been praised as a wise man. How can you be so naive? Do you think the emperor's secret decree can really be hidden from Dong Zhongying? If so, how could you be so naive on that day?

Jujube, do the princes of Guandong still need to use the name of San Gong?"

Everyone's momentum immediately froze, and Dong Zhao was also a little stunned: "Brother Yuanchang, you mean..."

"Li Ru knew about this decree, and even if Yao suppressed it, he would take the initiative to bring it up. Is it going to be the same then? Rather than letting Dong Zhuo use the emperor's favor as a favor, it would be better for Yao to bring it up and show his kindness.

As a bond, it can work to some extent. Wang Yu is young and his character is undecided. But there is no need to doubt the loyalty of Wang Gongjie."

"This, this..." Dong Zhao questioned: "Dong Zhuo and Wang Yu have a bloody feud, why would he stand up for his enemy?"

"I just want to use this son to contain the princes."

Xun Yu looked up to the sky and sighed, and said in a hateful voice: "This son of Wang Yu has an impatient temper. He can't stand a little anger, but he is good at fighting. The Xiliang army's vitality is seriously damaged, and when he goes west, he is afraid that he will be chased by the princes one after another. Now now

Your Majesty has his own agenda, so why shouldn't he just go with the flow? In addition to betraying Wang Yu's personal favor, he can also use Wang Yu to contain the princes..."

Xun Yu's explanation was reasonable, but Dong Zhao still couldn't let it go: "Isn't he worried about raising tigers?"

"He even dares to touch the imperial mausoleum. What do you think he is thinking?" Zhong Yao sighed and said: "At the end of the road, naturally we can only look at the immediate future. How can we think so far ahead?"

"Not necessarily." Tian Feng remained silent, but then suddenly interjected: "Dong Zhongying's move may not be the result of foresight."

Dong Zhao asked in astonishment: "Brother Yuan Hao, how can you say this?"

"What do we mean when we gather here?"

Tian Feng was not polite, and asked and answered straightforwardly: "Isn't it to deal with the threat posed by Wang Yu? Putting aside Zhong Yuanchang's announcement, everyone gathered here just to discuss a proper solution.

Countermeasures to deal with the next situation. What is the final plan? It is nothing more than joining forces vertically and horizontally."

"What does it mean to unite vertically and horizontally? The weak join forces and work together to resist the strong one! Now that the Taishan Army has won consecutive battles and its military power is so great that none of the princes have the confidence to fight alone, so they can only form an alliance to defend it together. Wang Yu's son

Known as Taishan's Little Bully, he also has a violent temper. If someone knocks on his door, he will not be afraid even if he is outnumbered."

"With this military strategy, even if the princes join forces to fight against the enemy, they may not be able to solve it in a short time. If the princes each have their own selfish motives, they may suffer a big loss. In the end, there will be a huge battle in the Central Plains.

As the war continues, Dong Zhuo is sitting in the pass, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Isn't it just what he wants?"

Tian Feng has a tough character and a straightforward temper. In addition, he and Han Fu are only in a subordinate relationship, not a master and a slave, so he doesn't have to worry too much. This opening brought to light the little thoughts that everyone had hidden.

, causing everyone to look at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly seemed a little awkward.

Dong Zhaoqiang said with a smile: "It's neither a fight nor a wait. Since Brother Yuan Hao said so firmly, he must have already made up his mind. Why not say it out so that everyone can discuss it together?"

"Everyone does his own thing and maintains a tacit understanding in secret," Tian Feng said without any hesitation: "If Wang Pengju is attacking Qingzhou peacefully, let him go. If he relies on the military strength to plot other places, he will attack in groups and make it difficult for him to start or end.

Gu, it can only end in defeat."

Dong Zhao doubted: "That's true, but brother Yuan Hao, you should also say that Wang Yu went to Hedong under an assumed name and Bai Bo accepted the court's promotion. It was also his efforts that showed his influence among the Yellow Turbans.

Prestige. If he can repeat his old tricks in Qingzhou, wouldn’t it be a great help?"

"Although they are both remnants of the Yellow Turbans, how can Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and Bai Bo be the same?" Tian Feng swept his eyes from both sides and accurately found Chen Gui, who had been silent for a long time: "Han Yu, you have been in Xuzhou for a long time, and you have been with me for a long time.

Qingzhou is adjacent, so we should know the details of Qingzhou Yellow Turban. Why don’t we tell you all about it?"

Ever since he heard Zhong Yao's announcement, Chen Gui had been frowning and didn't know what he was thinking. When he heard Tian Feng's invitation, his expression became even more bitter.

"Qingzhou is a land with mountains and sea views. It was originally a prosperous land. However, in recent decades, disasters here have become increasingly frequent, with sea intrusions, droughts and floods, and locust plagues coming one after another. In the fourth year of Jianning, the Bohai Sea overflowed twice in the second year of Xiping.

Thousands of people drowned in coastal states and counties, and tens of thousands of homeless people..."

Chen Gui did not answer Tian Feng's question directly, but talked about the past events of Qingxu and Qingxu. Fortunately, these people were all well-known and well-known celebrities. They could all understand the meaning behind Chen Gui's words.

Qingzhou, which is the northeastern part of Shandong in later generations, has been a place with strong folk customs since ancient times and has always had a tradition of rebellion. Several large-scale natural disasters before the Yellow Turban Uprising created countless refugees. The court did not provide compensation, and these refugees were also unwilling

Sit back and wait for death. As early as that time, war was already raging in Qing and Xu.

The subsequent Yellow Turban Uprising. To other places, it was bad news like a bolt from the blue, and the peaceful environment was suddenly broken. But to the people of Qingzhou, it just added a name for rebellion, and friendly troops all over the world. They also had

We have adopted a new slogan and program, that’s all.

"I haven't seen the Baibo thieves in person, so it's hard to say for sure. But since they are willing to appease them, they obviously haven't gotten rid of the habits of the grassroots people. They still have a sense of awe, but the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans..." Chen Gui shook his head and stopped talking.

Everyone was convinced that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban was just a name, and the main backbones inside were all long-standing gangsters, and their belief in Taiping Dao was also very questionable. It should be impossible for Wang Yu to repeat his old tricks.

"What's more, the land of Qingzhou has been in chaos for a long time, and the counties have long been broken. Although the coastal areas have not continued to suffer from sea intrusion in recent years, after the sea intrusion, the water and soil have been eroded. The water cannot be drank or irrigated, and the soil

No young crops can be born. Even if someone is so talented that he takes all the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans under his command, where will he find so much food to feed his people? It’s really worrying!”

Chen Gui's last sigh seemed to be worrying about Wang Yu, but anyone who understands would know that he was worried about Xuzhou.

Tao Qian and Wang Yu are on good terms. When Wang Yu is in trouble, he will probably ask Xuzhou for help, just once or twice. If it takes a long time, who can bear it? But if Wang Yu refuses, he might just fall out.

, what can Xuzhou do to resist such a ruthless character?

"Tao Gongzu has been shrewd for half his life, but when he gets old, he is indeed a little confused..." Someone in the crowd sighed lowly, which made everyone feel sad. If they send troops and food, they may even lose their territory.

They all have to be given away, what else could they be if they weren’t old fools?

While they were sighing, there was movement in the direction of the big tent by the river. The celebrities were refreshed and looked over. The last suspense was about to be revealed. Who got the right to capture Luoyang?

Those who left early were those who had no interest in Luoyang, either because they were too far away, or because they were people like Zhang Yang who had no strength or ambition.

This result is not difficult to guess. Without the emperor, it doesn't mean much to enter Luoyang. If you enter Luoyang, you will be attacked from a flank and put into an unfavorable situation. At most, you will have a false reputation.

Moreover, there are only a few companies that have the strength to do this. With the alliance between Wang Yu and Yuan Shu, they should not be able to escape. But recently there are rumors that Wang Yu and Yuan Shu have fallen out, so Luoyang's final decision

Belonging has also become a bit confusing.

The faces of the few people who came over from the tent were a little strange, and there was nothing serious about them. Tian Feng was impatient, so he walked up directly and asked softly: "How do you do, Mr. Yu?"

"What else can we do?" Jushou shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Is it really still Yuan Jiujiu?" Tian Feng pondered: "Yuan Jiujiu is indeed brave but foolhardy. Although occupying Luoyang can gain temporary benefits, in the long run..."

"What he wants is temporary gain. After repelling the Xiliang army and occupying Luoyang, he will withdraw from Luoyang and hand over Luoyang to the new Henan Yin who was recommended by Wang Pengju..."

"Who is it?" Tian Feng asked anxiously.

"Look who's missing?" Jushou waved his hand behind him.

"...Zhang Wenyuan of Bingzhou is not here?" Tian Fengti discovered who Jushu was hinting at, and this was an answer that he did not expect: "Is it Lu Bu?"

"Yes." Jushou nodded and said with emotion: "People say that Wang Pengju only knows how to fight. In fact, if he were to be a businessman, he would probably not be inferior to Tao Zhugong back then. It was just Luoyang, but actually

He made so many articles and sold so many favors and favors... Even though he is young, he has already become a spirit!"
