I really just want to lose my fortune

"Where's the power in Yangzhou?" Zhou Yu asked.

"I can't take it." Wu Meiniang frowned and said, "The Yuan family in Jizhou is deeply rooted, Xiliang is barren, and King Yan is Youzhou, which was conquered by the previous generation, so the power there is in the hands of these big families."

"In other prefectures, the aristocratic families are scattered, and they are all famous families who have been passed down for an unknown number of years. Even if a county magistrate is moved casually, it may affect the whole body."

The advantage of having the support of an aristocratic family is that there is no shortage of food, talents, soldiers, and weapons.

But the disadvantage of having a family is that it is easy to be constrained.

As long as one dares to mess with one, the others may generate hatred.

Like Soochow during the Three Kingdoms period, it is difficult enough to stabilize the rear, so how can we talk about progress?

Even heroes like Sun Ce were assassinated.

"Many aristocratic families in Yangzhou have made it clear that they support King Qi, and have placed a lot of bets on King Qi," Fang Xuanling said.

"Then I can give them the same promise." Qin Ji said.

"Not to mention anything else, where are General Sun and General Zhou?" Fang Xuanling said: "The two of them followed the prince when they made a fortune, and those people joined at this time, the prince will give them the same promise and treatment. Does the prince believe it himself?"

Qin Ji hurriedly said: "General Sun and General Zhou will be generals in the future, and the two gentlemen will also be the top civil servants in the future, ranking among the three princes. How can those people be capable?"

Immediately, Qin Ji sighed: "I understand...then, let's deal with the court first."

…………

Peiping.

After Yuan Shao received the imperial edict, his face was solemn, and the counselors under his account had already gathered together.

"Give our military power to King Wei." Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "This is the preparation that if someone really enters Chang'an in the future, that person must also be surnamed Qin."

"Good Yangmou, really good Yangmou! If I don't follow now, I will be rebellious just like King Yan and others."

"As long as there is rebellion, I will be in vain when I invest in Wei Wang in the early stage."

"You can only follow the imperial court." Ju Shou frowned and said, "Otherwise, the righteousness we wait for will be lost."

"Without righteousness, it will be too uncomfortable whether it is recruiting soldiers or anything in the future, and it is even more difficult for countless people to vote."

"No, if you follow the imperial court, what will happen to your lord's great cause?" Guo Tu hurriedly said: "If it was before, my lord's ambition was to be the third prince. But now that the two princes have turned against each other, we can be the third one! "

"It's a big deal not to respect the imperial court's order, it's the other way around!"

"Reverse!" Tian Feng said firmly: "At this time, as long as we attack Qingzhou and take Qingzhou with lightning speed, then we will occupy the land of the two states. King Guanyan will follow us after he passes through Bingzhou. This leaves some places to occupy, and I can't wait to make a deal with him. When we have a territory of one and a half states, we join forces and we will be the overlord of the north for the time being!"

The counselors expressed their opinions, and Yuan Shao lived their opinions calmly in his mind.

It can be said that the current situation is the headwind of headwinds, and Xun Yu and Changsun Wuji have pushed Yuan Shao to the forefront.

Chapter 308 Headwind Yuan Shao

"If you respect the king's order, the military power may fall to the side." Yuan Shao said: "If you don't respect the king's order, we will be rebels, right?"

"That's right..." Seeing Yuan Shao speak, Tian Feng said to Yuan Shao: "At this time, if I strike Qingzhou in a flash..."

"I heard what you just said." Yuan Shao stood up, walked to the map behind him, pointed to the map and said, "Taking Qingzhou with lightning speed is fine, but we will wait How much will it cost? Qingzhou is not a land without owner, it is ruled by the imperial court."

"After the incident of robbing the emperor's salary in Qingzhou, the imperial court stepped up its defense against Qingzhou. Moreover, there are many navies along the coast of Qingzhou. The governor of Qingzhou and the governor of Qingzhou all obeyed the dispatch of the imperial court. It doesn't mean that they can win if they win place."

"Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, and similarly, are not places that can be won if they are taken. They are all at the disposal of the court, and they all have their own garrisons, and the military power is in the hands of the court. Why can King Wei be in Yanzhou? Unimpeded? Why can the king of Chu freely mobilize his family and recruit troops in Jingzhou? Because they are princes and princes, their surname is Qin, and they are orthodox in the world."

"Even if they are really rebellious, it is the Qin family's business. In the eyes of the literati in the world, and in the eyes of the common people, this is not rebellion, it is a conflict between our own family. If we are rebellious, it is a traitor. , at any time to face the forces of more than two states."

"Taking Qingzhou, we can divide the north with King Yan, but as long as we can't take it in a short time, Xuzhou and Yanzhou soldiers will arrive, and we will be destroyed forever."

"My Yuan family has power in Jizhou, but it doesn't mean that I'm here in Jizhou to say the same. Our power is limited to the majority of families, and Zhang Juzheng was not given for nothing."

"My lord, what do you mean?" Ju Shou asked.

Yuan Shao said so much at this time, he probably already has his own plans.

"Throw the problem to the King of Wei, my soldiers are in Beiping, dare he come to take over, dare to bring food and grass to attack the King of Yan!" Yuan Shao slapped the table and sneered: "As long as he dares to come, this person will be sent to us." It will be deducted, and what is needed at that time is not him, but his token and seal."

"Although the initial investment may not be returned, as long as we detain King Wei..."

In this headwind, Yuan Shao summed up the words of all counselors, synthesized them, took the essence and discarded the dross, and chose the only correct path.

It is not advisable to fight Yan Wang at this time.

It is not advisable to hand over the soldiers to the king of Wei.

It is risky to directly rebel and attack Qingzhou, and it is not advisable.

Then, let's see if King Wei dares to come to Beiping again.

Last time the king of Wei came, there was still room.

But now, the imperial court gave King Wei food and grass, and he didn't want to keep any more room. It was forcing Yuan Shao and King Wei to do something to King Yan.

Either Yuan Shao hijacked the king of Wei and resisted the imperial edict in the name of the king of Wei.

Either King Wei would act as if he didn't know the imperial decree and develop his own, while Yuan Shao continued to pretend to be confused and wait for the opportunity.

"Master, where is King Yan?" Tian Feng said.

"They just want a suitable logistics route. We can give them a few cities, but they have to be exchanged county by county. If King Yan thinks that his current army can do whatever he wants, then I will fight him to the death! "Yuan Shao said: "Assessment, go to meet King Yan."

"Obey!" The judge ordered.

…………

A few days later, the Yanzhou military camp.

After receiving Yuan Shao's letter and the food and grass brought by the imperial court, King Wei Qin Sheng was not happy at all.

"Yuan Zhi, this Yuan Shao asked me to get the military talisman." Qin Sheng closed his eyes: "What does this mean?"

"Chang'an is making the final struggle. It's a beautiful conspiracy." Xu Shu responded: "It must be hard for King Yan to make the whole world crusade against King Yan."

"Although Yuan Shao may not be willing to turn against King Yan, in the eyes of King Yan, this is a nail."

"It should be said that Bingzhou and Jizhou are all troubles of King Yan."

"If Bingzhou eliminates the Tatars and turns back to attack King Yan, and Yuan Shao takes advantage of the situation to send troops, King Yan's retreat will be cut off."

"The possibility of this is extremely low, but when this imperial decree comes out, King Yan has to guard against it."

"Also, His Majesty is equivalent to giving the prince and the king of Chu exact instructions. If one of you wants to secure Yanzhou and the other wants to secure Jingzhou, then the imperial court will divert your energy, and you will make plans to attack King Yan no matter what. From what it looks like, the dispatched troops don’t need to be too many, but they can’t be too few either.”

"In this case, as long as the court can withstand the pressure of King Yan and Dong Zhuo, they can still deal with the two princes in the future. This is a turning point for Chang'an."

"Chaozhong, there are still capable people."

"Then what should I do?" Qin Sheng panicked.

"It doesn't matter, this is the most ideal situation. If the whole world is turned against, there will be more than these two groups of troops." Xu Shu sighed: "What the prince has to do is wait, Yuan Shaona, you can't go."

"If I go, I'm afraid I will be imprisoned by Yuan Shao."

"For the matter of King Yan, it is good for the lord to recruit troops with great fanfare. As for the soldiers of Jizhou... Heh, the lord can not confront Yuan Shao head-on because of the natural disaster in Jizhou and countless refugees. He can't bear to use the soldiers of Jizhou again."

…………

A month later.

When Qin Ge stepped into the land of Jiaozhou, the whole world was already in turmoil.

In other words, the whole world is in chaos.

The imperial court has its own policies, and each prince and prince has his own countermeasures.

Dong Zhuo and the imperial army officially confronted each other, and the confrontation between Tatar and Bingzhou continued all the time. King Yan's army successfully "beat" some cities in Jizhou and began to march towards Chang'an.

The armies of King Chu and King Wei had just been prepared and hadn't set off yet.

However, these have nothing to do with Qin Ge for the time being.

Qin Ge was about to cry when he looked at the barren Jiaozhou and the strangely dressed people.

"Finally, it's finally here!"

Qin Ge opened his hands and looked at the blue sky.

It is obviously the most barren place in the whole Great Qin, but Qin Ge is very kind.

Without him, Liu Bowen said, this is the root of Qin Ge's struggle for hegemony.

For more than a month, Qin Ge's side has been rushing on their way, and now everywhere is heavily guarded, or chaotic, and messy news is flying all over the sky.

Qin Ge and the others had no information, and the information they collected was only sporadic, so they had no idea what was going on outside.

"My lord, now is not the time for me to officially show up." Liu Bowen came behind Qin Ge and saluted Qin Ge: "This Jiaozhou is different from other places. It's not that difficult to seize power. What's difficult is that the three Thousands of troops."

"Oh? Bowen already has a plan?" Qin Ge's eyes lit up.

"Uncle Guo has already prepared a place for me to wait for an impromptu meeting. I think the prince will be very pleasantly surprised." Liu Bowen smiled.

Chapter 309 Unifying the Country Liu Bowen

Seeing that the unremarkable fort last year had now turned into a magnificent city, Qin Ge was a little dumbfounded.

In this era, can infrastructure construction be so fast?

The walls of this city are strong, and its area is not small. It is no less than Panyu City in Nanhai County.

"My lord, a residence has been prepared in the city, please." Liu Bowen said.

"Ah."

Qin Ge tidied up his clothes, and everyone entered Panyu City together.

Although conscription, war, or rebellion are everywhere in other places, Jiaozhou is safe at this time.

Not only Jiaozhou, but also Yizhou, as if what happened in other places has nothing to do with these two places.

Jiaozhou is barren and has been harassed by Japanese pirates all year round. There is no one who wants people, no money to ask for, but the storm can catch up every time.

Coupled with the tough folk customs in this place, even if Qin Ge was so troublesome at the time, he only left a good name in one county.

Soon, everyone came to a house.

Qin Ge settled Yang Yuhuan first, asked Cai Wenji and Yang Yanqi to accompany her first, then cleaned up, brought Liu Bowen, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, An Jingsi, Cheng Yaojin, and Mu Guiying to a place where they could discuss matters The place.

Unlike conspiring with Jia Xu, conspiring with Liu Bowen basically doesn't have to hide anyone behind his back, and it can also make people feel that Qin Ge has a magnanimous heart.

"Okay, just now I went through what happened recently." Liu Bowen said: "Let's talk about our own affairs first."

"Huang Chang, Governor Huang, didn't participate in the rescue before, but came here first to collect information."

"Li Jing, this is the man the lord wants. He is currently...the guard of Shunde City. His official position is lower than before. It's not an ordinary one."

"Of course, none of this hurts."

Li Jing, Huang Chang, those who have not yet fully joined Qin Ge's camp, it is impossible for them to participate in such a dangerous matter as robbery in Chang'an, even if they are very capable.

"Li Jing must be reused!" Qin Ge said solemnly: "Berwen, I have to wait to cultivate an intelligence agency. What fights is intelligence."

"First of all, I want to know who the general who fought against General An at the city gate was."

"That person is very strong." An Jingsi said.

Qin Ge said, fortunately, it didn't follow the novel completely. If it followed the novel completely, it would be a bit of a fairy tale.

A Li Yuanba, that is really unsolvable Wushuang martial arts!

Moreover, Qin Ge was not only worried about Li Yuanba, but also Li Shimin...

If Li Shimin was alive, he would also be a great marshal.

Under this star-studded world view, Qin Ge couldn't guarantee that his lineup was the strongest.

"Okay." Liu Bowen nodded.

"Continue to analyze, let's talk about it first, what did the world look like when we were on our way?" Qin Ge said.

"Bingzhou is still at war. King Yan didn't completely follow the road of Bingzhou, but occupied some of Yuan Shao's cities." Liu Bowen opened a map and drew a few circles on it: "At the same time, King Yan is chasing The army of the county is withdrawing, and Yuan Shao's army is stationed, it seems that they have reached some kind of deal."

"Well, the court's official letter said that Yuan Shao was attacking King Yan, and it was the court's counterattack."

"Ghosts believe it." Mu Guiying stared at the map and said, "The place where Yuan Shao lost can just be used by the King of Yan to transport supplies and supplies, and the place where Yuan Shao captured can be better used to station troops and let the King of Yan It is not possible to directly beat him to Peiping."

"Miss Mu is right." Liu Bowen said: "Looking at Jingzhou again, they are recruiting troops on the surface, but in fact they adopt an attitude of coping with the imperial court's will. Otherwise, the speed of troops is so precious, and they cannot send troops so slowly."
