Chapter 15: Yuan Shu compromises
Lu Bu said: "My requirement is that the number of soldiers should not exceed 5,000, and the total number should not exceed 10,000. And you must follow the route I have designated to enter the North Sea. Also, the military power of the remaining Jianghuai army must be handed over to me first! ”
"What!" Yang Hong screamed. The total number of people must not exceed 10,000, not to mention soldiers, I am afraid that even the families of the ministers are more than this number.
If you follow Lu Bu's condition, you must give up some petty officials. And except for the family members, the house slaves are not allowed to move away at all.
Under such conditions, how can Yang Hong not be angry: "Wen Hou, you ...... Are you too much! ”
"Have you ever been?" Lu Bu said with a smile: "If I give Yuan Shu's army a crossing, how will I deal with it if you take the opportunity to make trouble in my territory." Moreover, if you say that you will dedicate the whole Yangzhou to me, then it naturally includes everything in Yangzhou. ”
"This!" Yang Hong staggered: "That's the way it is, but Wen Hou also has to leave a way for His Majesty and me to live." As Wen Hou said, if we don't have soldiers and horses to protect us, wouldn't it be like fish on the anvil and let Wen Hou slaughter it. ”
Lu Bu smiled slightly: "You can rest assured, what I Lu Bu said, I have never broken my promise." Besides, I hope Yuan Shu lives a little longer. ”
"Hmm~!" Yang Hong frowned: "Wen Hou, what do you mean by this?" ”
Lu Bu smiled: "It's very simple, because I also want to replace the Han Dynasty as emperor." ”
Yang Hong couldn't help but be shocked.
Lu Bu continued: "With Yuan Shu, the name of the Zhong clan, Cao Cao will definitely point the finger at him. That way, I feel less stressed. And after Yuan Shu went north, I am afraid that the relationship between him and Yuan Shao is not peaceful. And with this precedent, wouldn't it be simple for me to replace the Han Dynasty in the future! ”
"Whew!" Yang Hong exhaled deeply and sighed: "I didn't expect Wen Hou to have such great ambitions, Hong admires!" ”
"Hahahaha!" Lu Bu looked up and smiled: "If today, it's like a mess, cutting constantly, and sorting out the mess." For the sake of profit, the fighting and harmony between the various candidates are simply normal. Until the end, no one knows what the situation will be, do they? ”
Yang Hong's eyes narrowed and he smiled: "Yes, no one knows the final situation." Only by living can there be hope. Unexpectedly, Wen Hou actually saw the situation in the world so thoroughly, and he admired it! ”
Lu Bu shook his head and sighed: "Yuan Shu's defeat is because he became emperor too early. In addition, two years ago, the country suffered a severe drought, which led to a great loss of national strength. Sun Ce's rebellion also had his own roots. Otherwise, it is not clear what the situation will be. ”
"Hey!" Hearing this, Yang Hong couldn't help but sigh.
Without Sun Ce's rebellion, Yangzhou would have been stable. But this is indeed the cause and effect that Yuan Shu himself planted before. If Yuan Shu hadn't designed Sun Jian, how could this have happened. And Yangzhou is rich in land and resources, how can it not be dominant.
"Alright, don't sigh!" Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "I will only give you three days. If there is no answer after three days, I will personally raise the army and go straight to Shouchun! ”
What the!
Yang Hong was instantly shocked: "Wen Hou, there is really no room for turn!" ”
"Absolutely not!" Lu Bu said: "Yang Gong, please!" ”
This!
Even the eviction order was issued, and Yang Hong had to leave gloomily.
After this meeting, he found that Lu Bu had changed.
Lu Bu is no longer brave and resourceful as rumored, but has great ambition and great wisdom.
Although Yuan Shu verbally said that he had full authority to deal with it, he could decide the harsh conditions offered by Lu Bu.
In this way, Yang Hong could only rush back to Shouchun in a hurry to report the matter.
After Yuan Shu heard the news, he was not very angry and scolded Lu Bu.
But what happens after scolding, if he doesn't obey the current situation, he will die.
The news came that Cao Cao and Sun Ce had begun to raise troops, and it would not take long to fight Shouchun.
And Lu Bu only gave him three days, that is, he was forced to make a decision immediately.
In the end, Yuan Shu could only gather the ministers and discuss with them.
The courtiers were naturally indignant and scolded.
But after scolding, they carefully weighed the pros and cons.
Follow Yuan Shu, no one knows what the future holds. They must also abandon a large amount of possessions and carry only a small amount of gold, silver and jewelry.
And if you don't follow Yuan Shu, you will definitely face Lu Bu, Cao Cao and Sun Ce.
These people, who are not particularly rich in war?
Even if he doesn't die at that time, I'm afraid that the family property in his hand won't be much saved.
The most painful thing in life is to choose, and everyone's hearts are wringing.
Seeing that it was difficult for the ministers to express their position, Yuan Shu had to snort coldly: "I have decided to go north to Xuzhou in three days." You won't force it, just stay at will! ”
Yuan Shu didn't have time to care about the thoughts of his ministers, he just wanted to live first.
Only by living can there be hope.
And now that he is so down, his prestige is naturally greatly reduced, and he never thought that he would be able to command his ministers again.
The great Zhong dynasty is so stormy.
Soon, three days passed.
Eventually, only a quarter of the ministers followed Yuan Shu north.
The rest of the people are really reluctant to take care of the big business, and they all have good expectations.
Although it is said that the candidates are competing for hegemony, the current candidates are all pulling people's hearts, fame, and talents.
Because this is a necessary condition for dominating the world.
In other words, if people stay, they are also very likely to be reused.
In this way, three-quarters of the courtiers remained.
Moreover, he didn't send Yuan Shu either. Anyway, from then on, it was the monarch and the minister who parted ways and parted ways.
As for the local low-level officials, almost no one moved, and the 10,000 people stipulated by Lu Bu were too few, and many ministers could only bring a dozen family members. As for the soldiers and horses, don't think about it.
When he saw Yuan Shu leading more than 10,000 people to Guangling City, Lu Bu couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
In order to survive, even Yuan Shu, who became the emperor, had to bow his head.
Soon, the two bigwigs met.
Yuan Shu has no soldiers, and Lu Bu is naturally not afraid.
Perhaps, in Yuan Shu's view, with money, he will soon be able to recruit troops again and make a comeback.
It has to be said that human dignity often comes from status and power.
This time, in the face of Lu Bu, Yuan Shu was not arrogant, but said amiably: "Wen Hou, you and I already have an agreement by marriage. Look, can you let your daughter marry my son, and how about we get married again? ”
Lu Bu hehehe, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu, do you think he can be fooled.
Once the two were in alliance, Yuan Shu promised to give grain and grass and Lu Bu. But as a result, Yuan Shu was untrustworthy.
The current Lu Bu is not the Lu Bu of the past, and he will never exchange the happiness of his children for politics again.
Well, how to say no.
Lu Bu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of an allusion, the allusion of Guan Yuguan's second brother.
"Hah!" Lu Bu chuckled: "The tiger girl can marry a dog!" Yuan Shu, your abacus is bad! ”
"You!" Yuan Shu was so angry that his beard trembled in an instant, thinking that he was so angry that he exploded.
Behind him, Yuan Yao also had a frosty face, looking at Lu Bu viciously.
The ministers under Yuan Shu also had ugly faces. The so-called king humiliated the ministers to death, and Yuan Shu was humiliated, that is, they did not protect effectively.
But what about anger, the situation of people is stronger than people, and everyone can only dare to be angry but dare not speak.
"Hahahaha!" Lu Bu laughed proudly: "Cheng Lian! ”
"The last general!"
"You will send two thousand armor soldiers to escort His Majesty Emperor Zhong to Beihai, and you must not stay for no reason!"
"No!"
