One can look at the end of the wilderness, standing alone on a big tree.
A pair of wings spread out to be five feet long. Two eagles with crooked claws catching branches were singing. Suddenly, they woke up and seemed to see their prey.
SA! The eagle is full of energy, wings spread out in an instant, the wind blows on his face, and flies to the South with the eyes of predators.
Luoyang City, the general's mansion.
"Where is the general?"
Jia Xu said with a deep look.
"The general is resting. I don't know what Mr. Wenhe has to do. Otherwise, don't disturb the general." Guan Hai blocked the way.
"Zifu, go in and report, Hebei emergency information!"
Seeing Jia Xu's solemn appearance, Guan Hai didn't dare to despise him. He rushed in and reported it to him. Soon after, he strode out.
"Mr. Wenhe, please come in."
Jia Xu goes in at once. Liu Ye has just got up. He is wearing a thin shirt and looks sleepy.
Jia Xu was slightly apologetic: "it's a crime to disturb the general's rest, but this news is very important, Xu really has to disturb the general."
"Well, you can tell. It's urgent."
"Yuan Shao led his army to besiege Yijing. Gongsun Zan sent his son gongsunfan to Heishan Zhangyan for help, but it was a little late. Yijing had been broken down by Yuan's army, and Gongsun Zan set himself on fire in despair. Now all of Youzhou is owned by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao takes his second son Yuan Xi as the governor of Youzhou, and Tian Feng and Gao Lan are the literary and military assistants."
"Gongsun Zan lost?" Hearing this, Liu Ye's sleepiness disappears without a trace.
"It's just like this. At present, Yuan Shao has occupied Youzhou. He has come to the place where horses are produced. On the other hand, he has no worries about his future. He is afraid that he will try to do something wrong in the future." Jia Xushen.
"Well, Yuan's family in Runan are all disorderly officials and thieves. First, Yuan Shu called himself Emperor without authorization. This Yuan Shao is not a man of peace."
The defeat of Gongsun Zan was of great significance. From then on, it marked that Yuan Shao's family was the largest in Hebei. We should know that among the several states in Hebei, Jizhou had the greatest potential for war. Because Jizhou was densely populated and had no machinery in ancient times, the number of population represented the high and low productivity. The environment of Bingzhou and Youzhou was bitter and cold, while Jizhou had vast arable land and rich economy. Yuan Shao was basically difficult to deal with, but he got Youzhou. On the one hand, he was able to produce war horses; on the other hand, he was not restrained. It was inevitable to grow stronger.
"No, there must be containment." Liu Ye paced back and forth in the hall, and stopped drinking.
"Yes, and the military spy learned that Yuan Shao seemed to secretly send envoys to Linzi."
"Linzi?" Liu Ye's eyes are full of Brilliance: "is it difficult for Yuan Shao to form an alliance with Cao Cao and jointly exert pressure on our army?"
"Yuan Shao had many capable people under his command. Ju Gonghe and Tian Yuanhao had unique vision and were good at military strategy. Xu you and Guo Tu were quick witted, and they were not incompetent in meeting discipline and matching." Jia Xu judged: "I'm afraid Yuan Shao is exactly what he meant. After all, it's a dream to defeat our army with his own strength."
At present, Liu Ye is the most powerful of all the princes in the world. Under his command, he occupies Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Sili, Yanzhou, Bingzhou and Nanyang County in the north of Jingzhou. Liu Bei is Liu Ye's vassal, occupying half of the world.
In addition, Yuan Shao occupied Youji Prefecture, Cao Cao occupied Qingxu Prefecture and Jiujiang County of Yangzhou, sun cexiong ruled Jiangdong six counties, Liu Yan and Liu Biao occupied one state respectively.
"Gather the people together and discuss it!"
Soon, Guo Jia, Liu Ye, Xun you and others gathered in the general's mansion.
"There's one more thing you're worried about." Guo Jia frowned.
"Filial piety, please."
Guo Jia said bluntly: "Yuan Shao and Liu Biao were once the same aides of general He Jin's government. They were close. It is said that Yuan Shao secretly instructed Liu Biao to do the death of Sun Jian."
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were both north and south. At that time, Sun Jian was a valiant general under Yuan Shu. He had no trouble attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold. However, Liu Biao was close to Yuan Shao, so Yuan Shao secretly instructed Liu Biao to kill Sun Jian.
"If Yuan Shao was not only in alliance with Cao Cao, but also with Liu Biao's three families to attack our army together and divide the territory among them..." Guo Jia said with a sinister look: "in this way, our army will be tired of coping."
Xun you nodded his head worried and said, "yes, now that our army is dominant, other princes must be afraid of it. If Yuan Shao takes the lead in person, with the appeal of yuan family's four generations and three princes, it is enough to form an alliance."
At the time of many advisers' analysis, Guan Hai suddenly burst in.
"General, Yuan Shao's emissary Feng Ji came to Luoyang and is now in the post house, asking for an audience with his majesty."
Liu Ye is stunned: "before you go to find Yuan Shao, did he send him to the door by himself? In that case, tomorrow morning, Ben will have to see what he says
Feng Ji came to Luoyang at the order of Yuan Shao. He immediately took the money allocated by Yuan Shao, and visited Guo Jia, Xun you, Jia Xu, and Liu Ye's civil and military forces, such as Yu Jin, Ma Chao, and Xu Huang. However, they were all rejected and Feng Ji was closed.Although Feng Ji's plan to visit Liu Ye's army was unsuccessful, he was not discouraged. Instead, he continued to visit some famous veterans in Luoyang, such as Cai Yong, Fu Shou, Tang Mao, Yang Zhen, and so on.
The next day, Fengji got up early in the morning. After bathing, he put on a brand-new robe and gown. Under the guidance of the yellow gate servant, he slowly walked into the palace.
Liu Bian wanted to yawn and was afraid that the officials would see him. So he usually covered his face with a long sleeve when he drank wine. Then he yawned and then put down his sleeve. He said in a loud voice, "if you have anything important to report, please tell me."
"To your majesty." Liu Ye, dressed in Royal uniform and dignified, said: "Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou, sent an envoy to meet his majesty every Ji."
"Oh? Yuan Shao? " Liu argued with interest: "where is Fengji?"
"I am here." Feng Ji came out and arched his hands and said, "I, on the order of my lord yuan Jizhou, have come here to meet the son of heaven. In addition, I offer ten pairs of jade and a hundred of gold plants. I wish your majesty good health and good health."
Liu Bian nodded happily and said, "good, good, Yuan Jizhou is worthy of being the fourth generation and the third Duke, and he is really loyal. However, Mr. Yuantu has come from afar. I'm afraid there are other important things to do. Let's talk about it. "
Although Liu Bian was not interested in political affairs, he was personally educated by Lu Zhi, a great scholar in his early years. Naturally, he was not a fool. The reason why he was not rewarded without merit was clear.
"Your Majesty is wise indeed." Feng Ji bowed his head and said, "I am here to apply for bu Dugen, Ke Bi Neng, Tuoba Yu, and Lord Wuhuan of the three Xianbei tribes. Please issue the gold seal to appease them and show our great power spirit."
"A gold seal?"
