Chapter 802: The Target of Public Criticism

Huangfu Chaobo nodded. Everyone knew about this, but he wondered why Pang Tong brought him out to talk about it at this time.

"Since a son of a good family like Sun Wentai still has the intention to take possession of the jade seal, what should the other princes think? Hasn't my lord thought of it?"

After listening to Pang Tong's words, a sentence suddenly flashed in Huangfu Chaobo's mind, "If there is no one in the world, I don't know how many people will be called emperors and how many will be called kings."

"What does Shi Yuan mean..." Huangfu Chaobo looked at Pang Tong with confusion and asked;

"If Tong's prediction is correct, the imperial edict from Chang'an will be sent to Luoyang in the near future. The emperor will definitely ask the lord to send troops to Huainan. One is to destroy the Yuan family's puppet dynasty and show the legitimacy of the world. The other is to want the lord to seize the opportunity to seize the jade seal. "

ah. . .

Although Huangfu Chaobo thought something about it, it was not as deep as Pang Tong thought. After Pang Tong said this, he had a deep thought.

Both the emperor of Chang'an and Guo and Li must have hoped that the princes of Guandong would destroy Yuan Shu, the emperor of the Zhong family. Firstly, it was indeed for the orthodoxy of the Han emperor, and another point was for the jade seal in Yuan Shu's hand.

It's just that he is definitely not the only one who has thoughts about Yuxi. There are two people around Yuan Shu, Sun Quan and Cao Cao. If they say that they have no thoughts about Yuxi, he will not believe it even if they are killed.

But can he really grab the jade seal? Moreover, even if he really grabbed it, would he really return him to the little emperor in Chang'an?

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo looked at Pang Tong again.

Pang Tong seemed to have seen what Huangfu Chaobo was thinking, and smiled slightly and said: "No matter what, the lord will send troops, it is certain. As for whether he can win the jade seal, and what to do with it after taking it back, that is a matter for the future. "

When Huangfu Chaobo heard it, it was indeed true. What he wanted to think about now was how to get the maximum benefit from sending troops. As for what to do with the jade seal after it is really taken away, let’s talk about it later.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo asked Pang Tong again: "In Shi Yuan's opinion, how many people will send troops to Huainan this time?"

"Cao Cao will definitely send troops to Yanzhou. Cao Cao and our Anton Army fought several times but failed to gain anything. If he can seize the two counties of Xuzhou from Yuan Shu this time, his strength will definitely increase by several percent. "

"Sun Ce from Jiangdong will also send troops. This is the best time for him to break away from Yuan Shu. Moreover, the Sun family will definitely not sit back and watch the jade seal fall into the hands of others. In this case, Jiangdong's soldiers and horses will definitely attack Yuan Shu with all their strength."

"As for the other princes, Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Yao of Yangzhou are really at odds with each other. Although they are both relatives of the emperor, they are both conservatives. When the princes challenged Dong a few years ago, their attitudes were very different. It can be seen that the other princes are basically staying away from Huainan. From my point of view, they are mainly cheering and supporting, and the possibility of sending troops is not high. "

Having said this, Pang Tong paused for a moment, and then slowly said: "It is true that the alien lords in the Henan, Yan, and Xuyang states have the idea of ​​​​throwing down the wall and everyone will push them. It is estimated that many people will send troops to fish in troubled waters. However, in this matter, It needs someone to take the lead, so Tong hopes that the lord can bring these forces to help. "

Pang Tong's words made Huangfu Chaobo's eyes light up. Yes, the lord player is indeed a help, but Huangfu Chaobo hesitated again. Players can be a help if they use it well, but if they are not careful, it will be a disaster. Players are difficult to manage. .

Take Huangfu Chaobo himself as an example, is he still willing to be controlled by others? So, he told Pang Tong his thoughts again.

After thinking for a while, Pang Tong said: "In this way, we will think about this issue after we return to Luoyang, but for now, the lord should set off to return to Luoyang immediately."

Huangfu Chaobo nodded, turned to Dian Wei outside the door and said, "Lao Dian, call shopkeeper Mi here. I have something to explain."

After a while, Mi Fu rushed to the room. After Huangfu Chaobo explained some matters about the transaction and cooperation with the Jiangdong family, he said: "I will trouble you about the next thing. Shi'a has arranged a secret stronghold of the Shadow Guard in Jiangdong.

You can also build a shop in Dantu City, one light and one dark, to take care of each other. Whatever I can't handle, the shadow can contact Luoyang. "

After hearing this, Mi Fu took the order and left.

Huangfu Chaobo then ordered the fleet to rest for the night and return to Luoyang tomorrow. Considering the safety of the caravan, Huangfu Chaobo decided to lead two large ships back first, while Jiang Qin's fleet escorted the fleet to transport food back.

However, regarding the escort of the caravan, Huangfu Chaobo is still considering forming a separate escort fleet. He cannot use Jiang Qin's main fleet to do this every time, and his Furious Wave Camp is not a real maritime ship. , is not suitable for long-term protection of maritime trade routes, but this matter still needs to be carefully considered.

There was no words for the night, and early the next morning, Huangfu Chaobo led two large ships on the return journey to Luoyang.

At this time, people in the Central Plains were already agitated.

As Pang Tong expected, the first person to get the news was Jiangdong across the river. Only two days after Huangfu Chaobo left Dan Tu, all the counties in Jiangdong had already received the news that Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor.

On May 2, Sun Ce issued a proclamation in Wanling, announcing his independence from Yuan Shu and expelling Yuan Yin, the governor of Danyang appointed by Yuan Shu. Subsequently, Sun Ce took the post of Danyang as the prefect and ordered the government to be moved to Moling, next to the river, and renamed it Jianye.

At the same time, Danyang's army was actively preparing for war and was ready to send troops to Guangling at any time.

On May 8, Cao Cao, the governor of Yanzhou, also expressed his refusal to recognize the Zhong Dynasty in Huainan and condemned Yuan Shu for establishing a pseudo-dynasty and bringing disaster to the people.

In the next few days, the princes issued a manifesto to rebuke Yuan Shu. Even Luoyang sent a manifesto to Shouchun at the suggestion of Huangfu Chaobo.

For a time, Yuan Shu was deserted by his friends and relatives.

At this time, Huangfu Chaobo's two ships had entered the city of Qingdao, which had just begun construction. Here, it will be another naval base of the Andong Army. In addition to a newly built city, a large port and dock will also be built.

Qingdao was built mainly for the naval base and dock, so Huangfu Chaobo specially ordered Meng Yi to lead a school of infantry and cavalry to garrison, and there will be about 2,000 guards in the city, plus more than 10,000 naval forces in the naval camp. It can be said that there are 20,000 soldiers alone.

At the same time, in order to guard the shipyard and maritime caravans, Huangfu Chaobo ordered the formation of Zhenhai Camp. The commander was Zhou Yi, one of the old men trained by Huangfu Chaobo from Changsha. Although his ability was limited, he was loyal enough. Moreover, the goal of Zhenhai Camp was only to guard the maritime trade routes, so Zhou Yi could still cope with it.
