『Chapter error, click here to report』
When Liu Bei was far away in Xuzhou, he also paid attention to the war in Youzhou. After returning to Qingzhou, some people reported a while ago that Gongsun Zhan's soldiers were defeated and defended Yi County, and Youzhou Mu Liu Yu sent a large army to help. At that time, Liu Bei was still thinking that with the new force of Xian Yufu, Gongsun Chan should be fine. Who would have thought that the situation would take a turn for the worse, and Gongsun Chan would die if he said he was dead.
Thinking of all the things when we studied, traveled, and sat and talked together many years ago, it seemed that Gongsun Zhan, who was standing long and smiling, appeared in front of me again. Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh, Brother Boqi, Brother Boqi, if you are willing to listen to me, why is it so. Thinking about it again, if Gongsun Chan was so easy to listen to persuasion, he would not be Gongsun Chan anymore. So he ordered someone to set up a sacrifice in the mansion to sacrifice the heroic soul of Gongsun Zhan.
After the death of Gongsun Zhan, the three armies held a funeral, and after seven days of cessation, he was buried in the high ground north of Jumashui. Guan Jing, who has lived in this position for many years, has never had a big plan and has won the trust of Gongsun Zhan. Now that Gongsun Zan died, Guan Jing took up his own house and said: "Since the lord is dead, how can I be alone." So he hanged himself in the house. Although everyone does not like to be appeased, they also sigh at their loyalty. They were buried together on the bank of the Juma River.
Everything has been done, Xian Yufu came to ask Gongsun to continue: "The young general wants to guard Yi Jinghu?" He saw that Gongsun continued to bury Gongsun Zhan here, instead of supporting the north to return to the north, thinking that Gongsun continued to be stationed here. So I came to ask for clarification.
Gongsun Xu's eyes were red, his face was pale, and he shook his head when he heard the words: "My father's last words made me lead the army to protect my family and return to Qingzhou. When Xian Yufu heard this, anger suddenly rose in his chest.
Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Zhan, even if you die, you will be blamed. You belong to Youzhou Pastoral Command, and if you die, your subordinates will naturally belong to Youzhou Headquarters, how can you return to Liu Xuande in the south?
Although Gongsun Zhan's current remnants of the army are only 5,000. But such an elite team that has survived a hundred battles will play a very big role in guarding Youzhou and deterring Zhuhu. Xian Yu Fuxin Dao, you can't let Gongsun Xu run away with people. But you can't force it, otherwise there will be chaos. So I had to persuade him. Just as he was about to speak, Gongsun continued to speak: "The deceased father also has a letter to Liu Yuanjun in Youzhou. General Xianyu can bring the letter back. ”
Xian Yufu's heart moved, and he thought that he should go back first and see what the lord said. So he took the letter and hurried away. Xian Yufu worked hard all the way, and let people send the letter to Liu Yu in Jixian County.
When Liu Yu learned that Gongsun Zhan was defeated and died, he was also very embarrassed for a while. He has a long-standing disagreement with Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Zhan was warlike and willing to kill, and every time he fought with the Hu people and did not accept prisoners, the Hu people were afraid to take refuge in themselves. It is only by oneself that one can do a gentle policy and pacify the place. However, no matter how much the political views and tempers are incompatible, to be honest, Gongsun Chan still has a great contribution to Youzhou. At least he is in Youzhou, and the Hu people dare not offend. Now that Gongsun Chan is dead, I'm afraid that the Xianbei people on the grassland are about to move again.
Hearing that Gongsun Chan still had a letter to himself, Liu Yu was in the study, opened the letter, and saw if this old rival had anything to say to him.
In the letter, Gongsun Zhan didn't say much, but said that he had ordered Gongsun to lead the army south to Qingzhou to join Liu Xuande. The reason is that he has many enemies in Youzhou, and he is afraid that his family will be harassed after his death. The second is to help Youzhou. After his death, Yuan Shao will definitely not let go of Youzhou, and Hu Ren is only afraid that there will be changes. It is difficult to preserve Youzhou, so please form an alliance with Qingzhou. In this way, Yuan Shao and Hu Ren are not enough to worry about.
After reading the letter, Liu Yu fell into deep thought. Liu Yu is not stupid, when Yuan Shao wanted to establish Liu Yu because of Dong Zhuo's abolition, Liu Yu stubbornly resigned. Because he knew that Yuan Shao's move was Xiang Yu's heart for the king. In this troubled world, he scrupulously abided by the courtiers, shepherded himself with loyalty, worked hard at night, and aspired to the royal family. It can be said that it has won the hearts of the northerners. The only drawback may be that I don't know anything about the military.
Youzhou is a border town, and it is the screen of the Han Dynasty. In this barren land, there is a lack of everything, and the only thing that is not lacking is the brave and combative Han'er. With such a good source of soldiers, will Yuan Shao give up? Do you think that soon, you will receive the news that Yuan Shao's army is coming?
Liu Yu thought about it, and it was okay for Gongsun Zhan's remnants to go to Xuande in Qingzhou, which could be regarded as a good place to go. And Xuande got this army, and he wouldn't turn a blind eye to Youzhou in the future. He also sent his own army to help Xuande to ask Yuan Shu, and when Yuan Shao's soldiers entered Youzhou, Xuande would definitely send troops to help. Thinking of farther away, he was already old, and in a poor border town like Youzhou, he was aging extremely rapidly. Now that his only son Liu Heyuan has not communicated in Chang'an for a long time, if there is something wrong with him, this Youzhou is more relieved to hand it over to Xuande. After all, they are also relatives of the Han family, although the bloodline is a little far apart, but they can't write two Liu characters in one stroke, right? It's better than Yuan Shao and other ill-intentioned people taking it up, right?
Liu Yu's plan has been decided, so he passed the order to Xian Yufu, and when Gongsun continued to go south, there must be no obstacles. In addition, let him lead the army to guard Zhuo County in case of Yuan Shao.
Xian Yu got Liu Yu's order, came to see Gongsun Xu, and told him what he meant. Gongsun continued to listen, rested for another day, and sent someone to Qingzhou to report the news, so that Qingzhou could prepare to respond, in case of the Jizhou army on the road. Then he and Zhao Yun and Tian Yu protected their families and led the army to the Bohai Sea.
After Xian Yufu left Gongsun Xu, he burned Yi Jing with a fire, and then retreated to Fanyang, defended the city, and treated Yuan Shao strictly. Yuan Shaowen Gongsun Xu and Xian Yufu retreated one after another, and also led the army to retreat. At this time, it was already a cold winter, and the weather was not conducive to the war, so the sergeant was thinking about returning. After several months of fighting, Yuan Shao himself was quite satisfied with such a big victory, so he waved his hand and the class teacher triumphed.
Liu Bei was in Qingzhou, and received a report that Gongsun Xu led the army to the south in the starry night to join him, and he was surprised and delighted, so he ordered the elite of the relevant feather rate headquarters in the plain to go north to respond.
Guan Yu Jiutun Plain, every move was watched by Jizhou. Knowing that Guan Yu had a change, he didn't dare to slack off, and quickly reported it to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was shocked on the march. So he commanded to listen carefully. A few days later, he reported that Gongsun Xu led the army into the Bohai Sea, and Guan Yu led the army north to meet it.
Yuan Shao saw it and was furious, Gongsun Xu is going to take refuge in Liu Bei. Bastard, he took advantage of his own ignorance to go south to Qingzhou. It's unbearable. So he shouted angrily: "The two enemy armies entered the Bohai Sea, why didn't the Bohai Prime Minister come to report, is it dead?" ”
Bohai didn't know where to go, but when he looked at the flag, none of them he could afford to provoke, so he had to shrink his neck as an ostrich and pretend not to see it. Of course, he also sent someone to report to Yuan Shao, but his people were not as fast as Yuan Shao's scouts.
Yuan Shao was so angry that he was about to lead his army into the Bohai Sea, but he hurriedly persuaded him: "My lord, it is not appropriate to conflict with Qingzhou at this time, you can delay it." ”
Tian Feng also said: "Today, the army has been fighting for months, and the soldiers are homesick and tired of war, and if they fight with Qingzhou again, it may be disadvantageous." Please also consider it. ”
Yuan Shao thought about it and felt that with the current situation of his army, it was indeed not suitable to fight with Qingzhou again. I held back this breath and said in my heart Liu Bei, I will clean you up sooner or later. So he said to Frustration: "Liu Bei invaded my realm for no reason, but I can believe it." ”
Liu Bei got Yuan Shao's letter and smiled. Fortunately, Yuan Benchu did not lose his mind and did not do anything against our army. Otherwise, if you really fight, it will be troublesome. After all, his two armies are in Xuzhou, the first army is in Liaodong, and the fifth army has not yet been completely formed.
