Chapter 461
That month, Yuan Shu established himself as the Son of Heaven, known as the "Zhong Clan", and mobilized 100,000 people in the vicinity of Shouchun to build palaces, dragons, chariots and phoenix chariots, and selected beautiful women from the people to enrich the harem.
Xuzhou, Xiapi City.
"Hahaha! My son Yuan Shu, you really laughed me to death."
Cao Cao held a piece of silk book in his hand, and laughed so loudly that his face was flushed with tears, and even tears came out.
"My lord, why are you so happy?"
Xi Zhicai walked into the inner room and asked curiously.
Cao Cao laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up, he held onto the table and stood still, and handed the handkerchief to Xi Zhicai: "Zhicai is here, take a look."
"The Son of Heaven of the Zhong family wants to make someone the governor of Xuzhou, so Qiao Hou." Cao Cao laughed, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
Xi Zhicai unhurriedly took the handkerchief book in Cao Cao's hands, and after looking through it, he couldn't help but also burst out laughing.
"Yuan Shu is a fool, not enough to make things happen!" Xi Zhicai sneered: "In today's world, although the Han Dynasty is declining, Liu Ye still controls Guanzhong and looks down on Guandong with the power of strengthening Qin. Liu Ye controls the Son of Heaven, and uses the Han Dynasty as the pillar of the sky Since Yuan Shu claims to be the Son of Heaven now, isn't he provoking Liu Ye to beat him?"
Cao Cao nodded with a smile, "That's right, this idiot Yuan Shu made such a fuss, but he managed to divert the attention of our army. This time Liu Ye is bound to send troops to attack Yuan Shu."
Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "My lord, you can write a book and give advice to the emperor, asking for orders to attack the traitor Yuan Shu."
"Just what I want."
The capture of Xuzhou caused a rift in the good relationship between Cao Cao and Liu Ye, especially with the end of the Battle of Yanzhou. Now that Yanzhou and Xuzhou border, there is a possibility of a war between the two armies at any time. Therefore, Cao Cao was in Taishan County. The reason for deploying heavy troops is to worry that Liu Ye will send troops to question him.
However, with Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor, all worries were easily resolved. Liu Ye regarded himself as the clan of the Han Dynasty, and the most intolerable thing was that some people ignored the Han Dynasty, so Liu Ye's eyes must be on Yuan Shu.
And Cao Cao's request to crusade against Yuan Shu was able to fight side by side with Liu Ye to eliminate the rift, and secondly, he was able to seize the territory of Jiujiang County in the north of Yangzhou and strengthen his strength.
"Okay, Zhicai, please write the letter on my behalf." Cao Cao said with a smile, "I never imagined that there would be a day when I could fight side by side with Yuqing."
"My lord." Xi Zhicai reminded, "Liu Yuqing is a hero in the world, similar to Huo Guang and Dou Gu, the ministers of power. My lord must not let the personal relationship between the two delay the great cause of striving for world supremacy."
Cao Cao nodded slightly: "It's natural, the only heroes in the world are Yuqing and Cao Er."
Yangzhou, Danyang County.
"Bo Fu, the emperor of the Zhong family named you the General of Conquering the South." Zhou Yu laughed and said, "With the position of General Conquering the South, you can crusade against Huang Zu and Liu Biao in a fair and just manner."
Sun Ce sneered: "Fucking general who conquers the south, if the emperor of the Han family named me the general who conquered the south, I would be more than happy to accept it. My father, Mr. Wentai, was eager for justice, and he was not afraid of arrows and stones when the eighteenth princes met, and took the lead in crusade How loyal is Dong Zhuo? How can I, Sun Ce, be a traitorous minister?"
"That's right!" Zhou Yuying said vigorously, "Didn't Bo Fu want to leave Yuan Shu a long time ago? Now that Yuan Shu is proclaiming himself emperor, this is a good excuse!"
"Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor without authorization, but he was not a minister." Zhou Yu said firmly, "Bo Fu can write a letter to the emperor to reprimand Yuan Shu. At the same time, he can write a letter to Yuan Shu, scold him severely, cut off communication, and then launch an army crusade!"
Sun Ce said seriously, "It's exactly what I want."
"My lord." Zhang Zhao, who was mature and prudent, said Chen Yan: "The lord has only fixed Jiangdong for a few months, and there is still an undercurrent. At this time, it is better to be quiet and not to move. If you leave without permission, you may change your mind."
Sun Ce frowned: "Mr. Zhang is on his behalf, just manage the land of Jiangdong well, and assist my second brother Zhongmou. Naturally, I have to go out to march and fight in person."
Zhang Zhao bowed his head: "Since this is the case, the old minister should do his best."
But Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu, before Yuan Shu called me to be the Nest Commander, I met a great talent and was about to introduce him to Bo Fu."
"Oh?" Sun Ce asked curiously, "Who can deserve the name Gong Jin?"
"Zijing, come in."
Following Zhou Yu's call, a man dressed as a wealthy businessman walked in. Although this man was dressed richly, his behavior was very calm, with the faint air of a general.
"I'm next to Huai Lusu, and I've seen Sun Doni." Lu Su cupped his hands.
Zhou Yu said, "Zijing, tell Bofu about the situation around Yuan Shu." Zhou Yu wanted to recommend Lu Su to Sun Ce, so he asked him specifically.
"Yes, please be more correct." Lu Su walked to the map, stood up, and suddenly seemed to be a different person.
"Yuan Shu proclaims himself the Son of Heaven, the most intolerable person is Liu Ye." Lu Su pointed to Luoyang in the map: "Liu Ye is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, assisting the government, and if Yuan Shu proclaims himself the Son of Heaven not stopped, the world will be like the end of Qin Dynasty The Six Kingdoms Restoration movement is general, and the world is full of princes, so Liu Ye must not be able to hold back, but wants to raise a large army to join forces with Liu Bei in Yuzhou, and conquer Yuan Shu in the south."
"Yuan Shu's subordination of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao must have been planned by his subordinates, but it's just a waste of time thinking about it." Lu Su laughed.
Sun Ce frowned: "Cao Cao turned against Liu Ye because of the fight for Xuzhou. Yuan Shao is Yuan Shu's elder brother. Why?"
"Cao Cao seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, and it is not impossible to join forces with Liu Ye to seize Yangzhou." Lu Su said seriously: "Although Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are a family, they are in the same situation. Just send troops to provoke Liu Ye?"
"Yuan Shaozhi is in Hebei, and now Hebei is full of heroes, and Gongsun Zan is trapped in Yijing. Yuan Shao will definitely do his best to capture Youzhou, so he will definitely not talk to Yuan Shu. Once Yuan Shu becomes emperor, he will actually make enemies on all sides. It is Bai Qi, When Han Xin was reborn, Yuan Shu was also powerless to return to heaven. It is a reason to unite with Gao Zu and the princes of the world to oppose King Xiang." Lu Su said slowly.
Sun Ce nodded, and looked at Lu Su with great interest, "Then from Zijing's eyes, where should our army attack?"
"Lujiang!"
A finger pointed at Lujiang County.
Lu Su said generously: "Lujiang County is in the north of the Yangtze River. If Lujiang is captured, our army will control the north and south of the Yangtze River and have a stable base in the north of the Yangtze River. At that time, we can plot Jingzhou in the west and compete in the Central Plains in the north. Our army will not attack." Lujiang is not allowed!"
"Okay, just as Mr. said!"
Sun Ce was very ambitious. We must know that he personally led the army to attack Lujiang County, and the prefect of Lujiang, Lu Kang, surrendered in anticipation. However, Yuan Shu later gave Lujiang County to his general Liu Xun. dissatisfied.
