The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 284 Wang Zuozhi's talent is Gaogao 999 today
Xun Yu, who stayed in Xudu two days after Liu Chong's departure, still received the news. He urgently sent someone to inform Cao Cao that Liu Chong's intentions were wrong, and asked to return to the army immediately. He also asked Yuzhou and Yanzhou for reinforcements, and then let Man Chong and Mao Jie The court captains were dispatched to stare at Dong Cheng and the ministers of the court, and the most important thing was Liu Bei.

Xun Yu never believed in Liu Bei, thinking that this person would not tend to be subordinated, and his ambition and ability were too dangerous. He had long advised Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei and get rid of him quickly, but Guo Jia thought that killing Liu Bei would not be conducive to gathering the Quartet Cao Cao overruled the opinion of the elders.

This was also a rare time when Xun Yu and Guo Jia had a disagreement. Someone would ask Xun Yu if he was not loyal to the Han Dynasty, why did he kill a person whose purpose was to help the Han Dynasty?Couldn't Guo Jia see Liu Bei's ambition?
Let me first say that Xun Yu was loyal to the Han family, and it can even be said that he was loyal to the Han family. In the end, he committed suicide for the Han family. Then why did Xun Yu kill Liu Bei?

Xun Yu saw the danger of Liu Bei, and he wanted to get rid of him quickly. Xun Yu was loyal to the Han Dynasty, but Xun Yu believed that Cao Cao was the master of Zhongxing, and helping the Han Dynasty was like Zhou Gong assisting the king, so Xun Yu advocated The most important thing is "follow the emperor to make orders but not ministers".

However, in Xun Yu's eyes, Liu Bei was a guise of supporting the Han Dynasty, but he was a threat to destroy the imperial court and affect the unification of the Han Dynasty.

From Liu Bei's subsequent performance, it is also worthy of the "Wang Zuozhi's attention" to Liu Bei, and indeed forcibly destroyed the unification of China for decades.

As for Guo Jia not seeing Liu Bei's ambition?
Of course not, Guo Jia saw Liu Bei's ambition at a glance, but Guo Jia despised Liu Bei too much, thinking that the threat of this person was far less important than those who came to rely on talents, so Guo Jia remonstrated to let Liu Bei go.

Guo Jia underestimated Liu Bei too much, and Xun Yu underestimated the interests of power and meritorious deeds too much. If the heir who unified Cao Cao for a short time had not had time to grow up, then Cao Cao might really become the Duke of Zhou.

But in the troubled times that lasted for nearly decades, the descendants of Cao Cao have long been corrupted by power, even their own brothers were killed, let alone the Han Dynasty.

Now that Liu Chong is leading an army to invade Xudu, the person in charge in the city is Xun Yu, who is known as the "talent of Wang Zuo", and Xu Duling Manchong, counselor Mao Jie, Wang Bi, generals Lu Qian, Zhu Ling, and Li Zheng (Li Dian's elder brother Cong), Han Hao, Yan Kuang, Lu Zhao, Wang Zhong, Liu Dai, (not the eighteenth prince, who died long ago, and their names are exactly the same) and others all stayed in Xudu.

Xudu, as the capital of the country, also has Dong Cheng, Fu Wan, Yang Biao, Kong Rong, Liu Bei, Wei Huang, Yoshimoto, Jin Yi, Geng Ji, Liu Shi and a large number of court ghosts and monsters in the imperial court. It cannot be said that it is not complicated.

What's more, Liu Chong immediately attacked Xudu as soon as Cao Cao set off. It is absolutely impossible to have no internal support in the city. The court has just stabilized.

Monitoring the important officials of the court and Liu Bei is only the first step, and then deploying defenses in Xudu, replacing several city gates with trusted generals is the second step, and letting Man Chong and Mao Jie closely guard the palace to ensure the safety of the emperor is the second step Three steps, sending Han Hao to protect Cao Cao's family is the fourth step, and then we can only wait for Cao Cao's army to come back and beat Liu Chong back.

As the capital city, Xudu has expanded a lot compared to the original. In the plan, there are two cities, the inner and outer cities. Now only the inner city and the outer city have not been built.

The moment Xun Yu received the news, he ordered the city gates to be closed and strictly prohibited everyone from entering or leaving. On the walls, archery towers, bed crossbows, rolling logs, stones, and archers were all available. Chong's tens of thousands of troops didn't even fill up the moat.

The four city gates were guarded by Lu Zhao, Wang Zhong, Liu Dai, and Niu Gai, Li Zheng was the reserve team to rescue, Man Chong, Mao Jie, Lu Qian, and Zhu Ling guarded the palace, and Xun Yu arranged them in an orderly manner.

Xun Yu made such a big move, no matter how strict the news was blocked, a few words still spread to the palace. Liu Xie was very happy when he got the news, second only to knowing that Dong Guiren was happy. Having never met Dong Cheng and others, Liu Xie had no idea how Dong Cheng arranged it.

But now that Xun Yu’s movement is so big, it shows that Dong Cheng’s actions are not small, and the bigger the scale, the easier it is to succeed. Liu Xie looked at Dong Guiren’s belly that had not yet bulged and murmured to himself: “Boy, I won’t let you do the same. Like me, I will be a puppet all my life, and die in the end! It's time to use the last dark chess!"

Among the ministers stared at by Man Chong and Mao Jie, some were panicked, some didn't know what was wrong, some didn't care, some secretly mobilized private soldiers and generals, and some secretly made up their minds, while Liu Bei did nothing , just made Guan, Zhang, and Chen secretly on guard, and even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others didn't know the existence of Yidaizhao.

Don't talk about Liu Bei but talk about Song Jiang, who didn't return to Huaiyin after sending the blood order to Liu Chong, but quietly sneaked back to Xudu to be with Wu Yong, Hua Rong, Li Kui, Mu Chun, Mu Hong and others.

Mu Chun arrived more than ten days ago, brought the 300 people from Song Jiang's family, and disguised themselves as several groups of businessmen to Xudu, lurking in the city.

On the second day after Xudu was under martial law, Liu Chong led his troops to arrive. Seeing the iron drum-like Xudu, he had no choice but to attack Xudu before Cao Cao returned to the army to break the palace and save the emperor. Go back to Chen country.

Liu Chong ordered a strong attack at any cost, and at the same time let Dong Cheng and others in Xudu know that Liu Chong had arrived with his troops, and the bloody siege began. Not even the corners were touched, not even the moat was filled.

Liu Chong's attack regardless of the cost made Xu Du Nei very nervous, and at the same time let Song Jiang, Dong Cheng and some officials know that Liu Chong had begun to attack the city.

In the middle of the night, a group of people suddenly appeared in Xudu Changshi's mansion. At this time, the Changshi mansion was under martial law, and Changshi Xunyu and his deputy Wang must be guarded by Nongdian Zhonglang Yan Kuang.

Suddenly Yan Kuang heard someone shouting outside the mansion: "Who is it!"

Then came the sound of fighting, and suddenly the gate of Changshi's mansion was ignited by fire. The noisy sound naturally alarmed Xun Yu and Wang Bi, and Xun Yu secretly said: "You did it so soon!"

Instructing Yan Kuang to lead troops to help in the battle, Yan Kuang kicked open the burning gate and saw about a hundred private soldiers fighting with the patrolling soldiers, took the lead and swung out with a big knife.

With the joining of Yan Kuang, those rebellious soldiers were obviously not opponents, and they were gradually killed and retreated, even if the people behind them screamed, it would not help.

Xun Yu needed to know who the person who joined Liu Chong in charge was. Under the leadership of the guards, he and Wang Bi went out of the Changshi Mansion together, but saw Geng Ji and Sizhi Weihuang, the leaders of the Shaofu.

Wang Bi stepped forward and yelled to take down the two, but at this moment an arrow flew from the side, hitting Wang Bi who was standing in front of Xun Yu, and died immediately from the arrow in the heart.

The death of Wang Bi caused Xun Yu's guards to protect Xun Yu and retreat into the Changshi Mansion, and Xun Yu felt that something was wrong and it was absolutely impossible for the little Geng Ji and Wei Huang to join forces with Liu Chong.
