Chapter 861 Yuan Shao Rules Jizhou

The administrative seat of Jizhou, the provincial capital city, is in Gaoyi County, Anping State.

On this day, all the civil and military officers of Jizhou in Gaoyi, including officers, captains, captains, etc., all gathered at Han Fu's residence.

Looking at the civil and military forces below, Han Fu secretly sighed in his heart, but he still asked Wang Yan to be forwarded here. Yuan Shao invited Wang Yan to go south and plot together in Jizhou. The order was circulated to everyone present.

He asked: "Now Yuan Shao wants to invite the king's thief to conspire with Jizhou. The king's thief has sent a letter here. How do you think I should respond?"

The civil servants and generals below looked at me and I looked at you. It was the general who spoke first. This man's surname was Zhang, his given name was He, and his courtesy name was Junyi. He was a Sima of Han Fu's army.

"My lord, Yuan Shao must not have known that the king's thief has forwarded the letter to us. Now that his ambition has emerged and he wants to plot in Jizhou, he cannot stay for a long time. Someone thought that it would be better to find a reason, send an envoy to invite him to Gaoyi, and kill him with swords and axes. "

"No." As soon as Zhang He finished speaking, a scribe retorted. This person was Shen Pei, whose courtesy name was Zhengnan. Although they jointly discussed matters, they were not reused by Han Fu. He said, "The fourth generation and the third Duke of the Yuan family have disciples and old friends all over the world. There are many gentlemen in the field who have benefited from Yuan's favor. Now that the plot has been revealed, it will be known to Yuan Shao and the plan will not work."

When he said these words, he was yelled at. It was obvious that someone was secretly communicating with Yuan Shao, so it would be strange not to scold him.

It is precisely for this reason that Han Fu was not reused. It was too straightforward. His original fate was that he would be killed by Lao Cao if he refused to join Cao Cao after Guandu. This is a single-minded person with perseverance and backbone.

But to think more of the people is to think too much. At most, like Liu Yu, he would not bully the people and restrain himself from persecuting the people. That would be good. No one in this era would think that the common people and they are equal beings who can talk to each other.

It seems that the same is true for some people in power two thousand years later, even though their slogans are very loud...

Someone hummed: "Zhengnan must have a good plan when he speaks like this, why not speak freely."

Shen Pei was scolded for a long time. Not to mention his skinny face, even his sparse eyebrows didn't even move. Now he was asked to talk about good plans, and he bowed his hands to Han Fu very calmly: "I think that although my lord is the shepherd of Jizhou, his foundation is still shallow, and it is difficult for his subordinates to unite. There are many local powerful officials and officials who have different intentions, and he has lost his geographical advantage. People and.

Although Yuan Shao was the governor of the Bohai Sea, his family was noble, Tie Dong was the leader of the alliance, and he was widely known as a virtuous man. He was admired by all powerful officials in Jizhou and won the hearts of the people. Although the geographical advantages are insufficient, the people and people are even more abundant. The two families are fighting, and the Lord has little chance of winning.

Moreover, there is a king's thief in the north. If two families are fighting, the one who wants to profit will be the king's thief. He is a rebel thief of the Han Dynasty, and we must not let him take advantage of it. The Lord can sit here peacefully, because the king and the bandits have just arrived in Youzhou. The people are in dire straits, so they must support the people, otherwise the king and the bandits would have already raised their troops and gone south. It has been cultivating in Liaodong for many years, with abundant resources and abundant people, and well-equipped soldiers and armor. Going forward to the confrontation in Xushui and Baxian, we have seen that the troops under his command behave in a controlled manner and have strict military discipline. If there is a real fight, the lord will definitely not be the enemy of the king and thieves.

Therefore, I think it is better for my lord to send Jizhou and Yuan Shao away, so as not to harm their harmony, and to prevent the swordsmen from meeting each other and damaging their own strength, and not to take advantage of the opportunity with the king's thieves. Yuan Shao is in charge of Jizhou, so the lord can still live. If the king's bandits go to Jizhou, the lord will undoubtedly die. Gongsun Zan's end is a warning to others, so please be careful..."

If you don't say that Shen Pei is not reused, what he said means only three things. Han Fu is not good. He does not win the hearts and fans of Yuan Shao. He cannot defeat Wang Yan with physical strength. He has to be killed by Wang Yan and made into bones. The rack allows people to plate the batter.

Han Fu's face turned green when he heard this. Indeed, he knew that he was indeed incompetent and did not have enough control over Jizhou.

In the past, the soldiers who occupied the king's thief were all thanks to the fierceness of the king's thief. The wealthy families and officials in Jizhou were also afraid that Wang Yan would kill them, so they could pull out an army of 50,000. But if he were to fight Yuan Shao, he would only have 20,000 troops, and there might even be someone who could lead the troops to surrender.

On the other hand, he, the Jizhou Mu, was arranged by Dong Zhuo. If he had not led his troops to fight against Dong Zhuo earlier, his performance as the Jizhou Mu would not have been reliable. Even if he goes now, it will be of no use against Yuan Shao, as it will be equally unstable. If he really did it, someone might take his head and surrender.

So he didn't dare to kill Yuan Shao, he didn't have the confidence to fight with Yuan Shao, but he wouldn't be willing to give up Jizhou to Yuan Shao.

The situation is like this, but it would be wrong for Shen Pei to tell it. He is also a Jizhou shepherd, doesn't he want to lose face?

However, compared to watching the show before, the green-faced Han Fu, Guo Tu, Sui Ji and others who had just been furiously complaining about the matchmaking were silent. They looked at each other, and the group of people turned to the green-faced Han Fu. Fu cupped his hands and said, "What Zhengnan said is true. I hope my lord will think carefully about it."

In such a situation, one could tell at a glance who was attracted to Yuan Shao, and Han Fu's face turned even greener.

"Let's discuss it later!"

He couldn't help but snorted and walked away...

The judge's words were correct. The matters they discussed today reached Yuan Shao's desk within a few days.

Snapped……

After reading the situation written in the letter, Yuan Shao snorted coldly and slapped the table in front of him: "The king is a thief and a traitor to the people. He really has no faith. He opened the letter and said that he could make peace and stop the army. He said that he could pretend to attack Han Fu. Help me to seize control of Jizhou. Now I wrote to this thief, and he actually forwarded the letter to Han Fu. He really deserves to be killed."

He cursed, passed the letter to his subordinates, read it again, and asked, "Han Fu was already on guard. Now that my plan has been revealed, he must be even more guarded. What should I do?"

After a moment of silence, someone said, "The thief Wang will not respond. We expected this before we sent the letter. The land tax is 10%, and there are no other taxes. The food and fodder are already insufficient. I also heard that he built a lot of warships and sent elite soldiers to sea to find the best seeds given by heaven, which was very wasteful. Therefore, within three or four years, we must keep our troops in place, otherwise they will collapse on their own. Therefore, there is no need to worry about them now.

Since my plan has been revealed, there is no need to worry. Not to mention the powerful people in Jizhou, even the powerful people in the world are all loyal to the Yuan family. My lord can raise a grand army and go directly to Gaoyi was the place to go. Han Fu was hesitant, so the lord helped him make a decision. Now people are on my side, and the general trend is in my hands. Wherever I go, people will come to surrender. Han Fu must offer Jizhou. Even if they don't offer it, with Generals Yan and Wen, they will be invincible and can conquer anything. Jizhou can be established. "

As soon as this was said, it was unanimously recognized by everyone in the field, especially Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who were shouting for battle. They were proud of their invincible bravery and had merits in fighting, so of course they were shouting. The only way to show the value of a military general is to fight a big battle.

After a quarrel, Yuan Shao hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Pass on my military order, immediately organize the army, Yan Liang will lead the front army... Cook at three o'clock tomorrow, and the troops will enter Gaoyi. "

Yuan Shao was good at making plans, so it was not difficult for him to make this decision. Indecision means making a major decision. Although it is also very important now, relatively speaking, he has no more choices.

There are two reasons. One is that his subordinates have a unified mindset. Now there is no other way to choose except to send troops. The second is that he also looks down on Han Fu, so this decision is not difficult.

Another point is that he does not have so many advisers now, unlike later, when he took over Jizhou, recruited some, and some surrendered. There are more capable people under his command, and messy people came. Whoever says that everyone is right, only then will the defects in his character be revealed...

With Yuan Shao's order, except for the 5,000 troops defending Quanzhou, the troops in other places were assembled. It is impossible for 20,000 people to be stationed in Fuyang all the time. At most, there are several thousand standing troops. Yan Liang led these troops to set off first, and then recruited troops to slowly follow up and become the central army and the rear army.

Of course, this is the situation of fighting Han Fu. Yuan Shao still has a bottom line in his heart because he has the support of people. Otherwise, he must first assemble a large army and then send troops to fight.

The development of things is not unexpected. Wherever Yuan Shao's army passed, there was no decent resistance at all, and it was almost smooth all the way. Later, Yan Liang encountered Zhang He's army to block the attack. The two fought for dozens of rounds but Yan Liang was defeated. He led his army to retreat.

Zhang He is still very interesting. His fighting ability is not weak. He is a member of the first-class team, but he is not at the peak. He belongs to the position of goalkeeper. In the battle with Liu Bei's group, he was repeatedly beaten. And he has the same problem as Cao Cao, that is, he is suspicious and runs away at the slightest sign of trouble.

Those who can do it will be pressed to death, and those who are of similar level will fight hard and will not retreat easily. When they encounter those who can't do it, they will turn around and run away without hesitation. It is precisely because of his clear situation and decisive escape that he is known as a wise general and lives a long life.

At the beginning, he joined Cao Cao. For a long time, he was a general and the second or third in command of a department. Little by little, there were almost no more capable people under Cao Cao, and he took the position and became the main general who led the army to fight alone. This is the benefit of being able to live.

At the same time, Gao Yi knew that Zhang He could not do Yan Liang, so he could only refuse to defend. The troops stationed in Xushui and Baxian could not move, and for a while, everyone persuaded Han Fu to surrender Jizhou.

At this time, Han Fu also understood that the situation was over. A Jizhou governor had no ability to resist Yuan Shao. However, he did not surrender and wait for Yuan Shao's decision, which was already embarrassing. He did not want to be more embarrassed. So he took his family and dozens of his own soldiers and went south to Zhang Miao for refuge.

This is not a good choice. The better choice is that since he is afraid of death and has no shame, he might as well be more shameless and directly surrender Jizhou to Yuan Shao for fame. Yuan Shao will never make things difficult for Han Fu and give him an idle official position, which is much better than surrendering to Zhang Miao.

Han Fu's failure is definitely not due to his incompetence. There is no such thing as a fool when he has done this. Of course, his ability is definitely insufficient and he cannot integrate forces. And this force is the nobles, officials, rich families, and landlords of Jizhou, that is, the actual ruling class of Jizhou. He has no effective means to check and control them.

His failure is also due to the abandonment of the nobles of Jizhou. In this regard, Yuan Shao, the illegitimate son of the Yuan family, is more popular with the nobles than Han Fu. After all, the Yuan family has three officials in four generations, which is almost the head of the nobles in the Eastern Han Dynasty. This kind of influence is very terrible.

Of course, it is mainly because his opponent is Yuan Shao. If it is replaced by Wang Yan, it will definitely be a different matter. It must be civil and military forces, and the upper and lower levels must be united. If you want people, you have people, if you want food, you have food, and you are single-minded, and you will fight against Wang Yan.

It is because Wang Yan is really doing something to eliminate them. This is an absolute struggle for survival. In other words, Wang Yan chose the right opportunity. He stood out during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, fled to Liaodong to avoid the attack, and spent money in time to eliminate the disaster. In addition, there were endless peasant uprisings and rebellions in various places in the intervening years. This was how he preserved the fruits of his early business and seized the opportunity of the chaos in the Central Plains where everyone was fighting on their own, and sent troops south to take Youzhou.

If he had raised the banner of eliminating the nobles ten or eight years earlier, he would have encountered a strong attack from the Han Dynasty and must have been killed. Of course, if it was at that time, he would not have done so. He must have focused on his career.

In any case, Yuan Shao took all the land of Jizhou and began to realize what he said to Cao Cao, annexing Hebei, Jizhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou, then occupying the Yellow River in the south, swallowing the elite cavalry of Wuhuan and Xianbei in the north, and then going south to fight for the world.

Of course, that was before, he had never come into contact with Wang Ze. Now seeing the elite soldiers under Wang Ze, although he also had this idea, he would definitely not be able to use it in a short period of time, but the strategy must still be this strategy.

Originally, what he said was realized by Cao Cao. It was after Guandu that Liaodong was pacified. Although Ma Teng and Han Sui were not settled, the Central Plains were all under his control. The Battle of Chibi was a war to fight for the world in the south, but he did not win. If he won, he would basically decide the world in one battle.

Yuan Shao's taking Jizhou was of course shocking to the world. Because it was not the original situation, Gongsun Zan attacked Han Fu, Han Fu took the initiative to find Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao raised troops to attack him, there was a huge difference between them, and it also marked the beginning of the princes attacking each other.

Although Yuan Shu had sent Sun Jian to attack Liu Biao a long time ago, or because of the matter of passing on the national seal, Yuan Shu communicated with Liu Biao to let him attack Sun Jian, but the impact was local and did not reach the level of Yuan Shao.

When the news came out, Cao Cao, who was fighting the Yellow Turbans, immediately contacted his former boss to renew their friendship. Liu Bei, who was studying how to achieve great things in Xuzhou and temporarily working for Tao Qian, couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency, but there was nothing he could do. He could only suppress his anxiety and continue to make friends with the Xuzhou nobles...

When the news reached Wang Yan, he was not surprised at all. Because Han Fu was not strong, not to the level of Lao Cao, and not as famous as Yuan Shao, it was normal for the nobles not to support him.

"This must be the work of the Jizhou nobles. Yuan Shao's entry into Jizhou was all caused by them." Guo Jia said with certainty. He was not stupid and could understand such things at a glance.

"When Yuan Shao was young, he was a hero and had a chivalrous spirit. He saved people in distress and had a good reputation. This is not surprising." Wang Yan smiled and shook his head, "It's good that there is no war, and many people's strength has been preserved. Now the advantage is in my hands. He must concentrate on development, plan for our You and Liao lands, stabilize the rear, and slowly move south. We also need time to develop, which is very good."

"Now is the time of autumn harvest. There are doctors of agricultural science who promote farming methods and improve good varieties. Liao land is ripe again, and Youzhou's grain production is also a little more abundant than in previous years. After the autumn harvest, will the general use troops in Bingzhou?"

Wang Yan looked at him with a smile: "What do you mean by Fengxiao?"

"Jia asks to go to Pingcheng and take all of Bingzhou." Guo Jia cupped his hands and volunteered to fight.

The value of a general is in fighting, and the value of a counselor is also in fighting, or a higher level of saying is struggle. Guo Jia still likes to make plans and seize cities and land, not as rigid as he is now. Many times he feels constrained.

Because General Wang has established a sound system and has a complete set of rules and regulations, there is too little room for free play. His nature is still more romantic, yearning for freedom to display and use the dragon-slaying skills in his heart...
