"Do you think I need to respond to Yuan Benchu's call?" "Calling the world to attack Dong Zhongying, that's such a loud tone." Xi Zhicai did not speak first, but Cheng Yu couldn't help but speak first.
As a middle-aged man, Cheng Yu has quite a temper, and he can't stand those wealthy families. Otherwise, given his ability, he would have been promoted long ago.
Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family in Runan, one of the top aristocratic families in the world. Ordinary scribes should be in awe of a family like the Yuan family.
But Cheng Yu doesn't.
"Why does Yuan Benchu call the world to attack Dong Zhongying? I think he wants to rebel."
Cheng Yu sneered at Yuan Shao's actions. He was not considered a loyal minister of the divine man. Otherwise, with his intelligence, he could naturally see Su Fan's ambition. How could he assist Su Fan in this way?
In this world, Dong Zhuo occupied Luoyang City and did a lot of evil things, but he did not poison the young emperor Liu Bian like in the novel.
If you say that Dong Zhuo was a powerful minister, then there is no problem. But now if you say that he is a traitor to the divine Han, then there is a problem.
At least Dong Zhuo didn't violate any major rules.
Of course, for those aristocratic families, they would naturally be unhappy if a warrior took control of the court.
A lot of rights have been taken away, and of course they are not happy.
That's why Yuan Shao's Qingjun side came into being.
Outsiders may not know this, but Cheng Yu and others see it clearly.
"If Zhong De is like this, it doesn't matter if you talk about it here. It's better not to talk outside." Su Fan was speechless. He knew Cheng Yu's bad temper.
But I didn't expect that he would say this.
Of course, Yuan Shao's behavior was no different from rebellion during the Han Ling Emperor's time.
But right now?
Who dares to say that Yuan Shao rebelled? On the contrary, many people responded one after another.
It can only be said that the Shenhan court was controlled by the Liu family and the aristocratic families. If Dong Zhuo, a warrior, wanted to rise to power, it would be tantamount to destroying the bottom line of these people.
So they will flip the table.
Su Fan was naturally disdainful, but he knew that the power and influence of the Yuan family was still very great at the moment.
He was temporarily unable to fight.
"Lord, I think this is your chance?"
Xi Zhicai said slowly.
"What do you think"
Su Fan heard this and continued to ask.
"Lord, there must be many people who respond to Yuan Shao's call this time. Firstly, the influence of the Yuan family, and secondly, naturally many people are dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo's high position."
Xi Zhicai did not explain two points in detail, but everyone knew it.
"Commander Zhicai, since you said that there are many people responding this time, it shouldn't be a good thing for the lord at that time. When there are more people, the credit will be divided. How much credit can the lord get by then?
"
At this time Zang Ba suddenly asked a question.
When Su Fan and Xi Zhicai heard this, they both looked appreciative.
The latter even responded unhurriedly: "Haha! Xuan Gao, it's because there are so many people that I think this is an opportunity."
"When there are many people, they are not united. What's more, this time, even if there are many people who respond to Yuan Shao, it will be difficult to achieve anything. He Yuan Benchu wants to overthrow the emperor. What does he really think of Dong Zhuo? The Yellow Turban Army Horse?"
"Dong Zhuo's men are all elites. It's not that I underestimate the world. In the world now, except for the army in the hands of the lord, which is elite, most of the others are probably newly recruited young men."
"As long as Dong Zhuo sends people to defend Hulao Pass, what are the chances that the coalition forces will break through the pass?"
Several generals were silent. Everyone knew that Hulao Pass was definitely the most powerful pass in the world. If a group of elite guards wanted to break the pass, you can imagine how difficult it would be.
"Military advisor, if this is the case, wouldn't it be even more useless to the lord?"
At this time, Chen Dao also raised doubts.
"Yes, military advisor, you have said that the coalition forces cannot break through the Hulao Pass. Is it possible for the lord to break through the pass alone?"
"Haha! Of course not"
"First of all, whether you can break through the barrier is a question. If the lord attacks with all his strength, there is still a chance, but this will undoubtedly expose the lord's strength, which is not a good thing for the lord."
"This time Yuan Benchu's Qing Jun side is actually nothing more than a personal display show."
"The Qing emperor is just talking about killing Dong Zhuo. Do they really dare to do it? Can they really do it?"
"So what if Hulao Pass is broken? Your Majesty is in Dong Zhuo's hands and he is in trouble. If Dong Zhuo threatens your Majesty and kills him, who can bear the responsibility?"
"this"
As soon as Xi Zhicai's words came out, everyone immediately realized that indeed, His Majesty was in Dong Zhuo's hands and really wanted to attack outside Luoyang City.
Will Dong Zhuo be captured without hesitation?
If you think about it from another perspective, they definitely don’t want to.
"But Dong Zhuo doesn't dare to do this, right?"
"Why don't you dare? After all, the world has conquered you. Even if you kill His Majesty, it will be nothing more than that. He has hundreds of thousands of Xiliang border troops in his hands. At worst, he will retreat to Xiliang. Is it possible that anyone will really die with him?
Kneel?"
Maybe there are those who are die-hard loyalists of the divine man, but how many such people are there?
Even the generals like them could see Yuan's imminent ambition, but no one stood up to accuse Yuan Shao.
"So, this time the coalition forces Qingjun side is an opportunity for the lord to show some of his strength."
"As long as Dong Zhuo is not stupid and will not keep fighting with the coalition forces, he will definitely divide the coalition forces and may seduce the leaders of the coalition forces with official positions. At that time, the lord can mention Xuzhou Mu."
"Xuzhou Mu!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. It would be different if the real lord became Xuzhou Mu.
Between the prefect and the state shepherd, the latter is definitely bigger.
The power to control a state is exciting to the imagination.
Everyone who followed Su Fan naturally wanted to be crowned a noble and a general, and to honor their ancestors. Everyone also knew a little bit about their lord's aspirations.
"My lord, I would like to be the vanguard."
Zang Ba was the most clever. After hearing Xi Zhicai's words, he immediately took the lead in asking for a battle.
"My lord, the general is also willing."
Several other generals also hurriedly asked for battle.
Seeing the fighting passion aroused by the generals, Su Fan smiled and nodded, then looked at Cheng Yu and said, "Mr. Zhongde, do you think what Zhicai just said is acceptable?"
"Well! What Zhicai said does make some sense. I also estimate that the coalition will not succeed. If they are not united, all parties must have their own agenda. When the time comes, my lord must be careful of other people's plans."
"Dong Zhuo will definitely divide the coalition forces when the time comes. If the lord wants Xuzhou to be pastoral, he must show his strength. Otherwise, Dong Zhuo will not be able to give it."
"This requires a degree of control. If you show too much power, it will not only make those coalition forces jealous, but also make Dong Zhuo jealous, which is not beautiful. On the contrary, if Dong Zhuo doesn't like it, he will definitely not let the lord get what he wants."
Cheng Yu was indeed a scheming person and quickly reminded him.
