Yuan Shao looked at the rows of shocking figures. These were all the evidence about Guo Tu's corruption and bribery collected by the interrogators over the years. Originally, he wanted to find a suitable opportunity to kill Guo Tu in one fell swoop, but now he had to take it out. If this is the case
The next time Guo Tu succeeds, his status in Yuan Shao's heart will rise a lot. With Guo Tu's support, Yuan Tan is the eldest son. Since ancient times, the elders have been in an orderly manner. Once Yuan Tan succeeds to the throne, they, as Yuan Shang's supporters, will
The judge knows best what will happen. With Guo Tu's character, it is certain that he will be killed.
Yuan Shao looked at it and remained silent. The judge said: "My lord, everyone knows that Guo Tu is greedy for money. The Zhen family belongs to the Jizhou family. After everyone in the Zhen family was imprisoned, there was already news, and many wealthy businessmen fled. So
It is not a good thing to go down. Without their support, Jizhou will probably become more and more chaotic."
"Then how will it end now?" Yuan Shao thought for a while.
Shen Pei said: "My Lord, not only must the Zhen family be released immediately, but it is also best to convict Guo Tu. This will make the people of Jizhou feel at ease!"
"This..." Yuan Shao was a little reluctant. After imprisoning the Zhen family, Guo Tu immediately ransacked the Zhen family and obtained a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry. This time Guo Tu did not dare to monopolize it, and sent a large part to Yuan Shao's mansion.
For the sake of gold, silver and jewels, Yuan Shao couldn't bear to punish Guo Tu. It was precisely because of this that he couldn't let the Zhen family go without any reason.
Shen Pei has followed Yuan Shao for many years. Yuan Shao knew what Yuan Shao was thinking with just one move. He said: "It is true that Zhen Rao colluded with Liu Yu's old ministers. The lord can use this matter to drive the Zhen family and the young ones out of Xindu, but Guo Guo
If you try to embezzle the Zhen family's money, this matter must not be left alone. My subordinates believe that Guo Tu must be punished! In this way, the rich businessmen in Jizhou will also be accounted for, and the Zhen family's property can be returned to the government office, killing two birds with one stone!"
Yuan Shao took a deep breath and nodded slightly: "That's very good, I'll leave it to you!"
Dozens of members of the Zhen family, young and old, were driven out of Xindu. The judge was quite generous and gave them some money. The Zhen family still has land in Xiacai, and if they return to Xiacai, they can live a happy life. After stepping out of the gate of Xindu, Zhen
Rao was lying in the carriage, wrapped in white cloth, and a scar on his originally handsome face ruined his handsome appearance. Looking at the Xindu city wall that was getting further away, Zhen Yao's eyes filled with anger.
Yuan Xi came on horseback and shouted from afar. Zhen Yan endured the pain and asked the driver to stop the carriage. Yuan Xi dismounted. Zhen Yan asked: "Now we are waiting for the guilty. Second Young Master, it is better to go back quickly, so as not to blame the Lord."
Yuan Xi poked his head and looked behind Zhen Yan. He wanted to take another look at the person he missed so much, but unfortunately he saw nothing. Yuan Xi bowed his hands to Zhen Yan and saluted: "Master Zhen, please don't say that, all of this is irrelevant.
It was Guo Tu who did it. My father has put Guo Tu in prison. Master Zhen can go to Xiacai to stay temporarily. I will explain it to my father in a while and let you guys reply again!"
"No need!" Zhen Rao looked at Yuan Xi fiercely: "All the property of our Zhen family in Xindu has gone into the pockets of your Yuan family, why are you coming back? Humph!"
Yuan Xi was speechless for a moment. Although Guo Tu was used as a scapegoat, anyone with a discerning eye could clearly see that the mastermind behind all this was Yuan Shao. Yuan Xi wanted to restore the relationship between the Yuan family and the Zhen family, but things went against his wishes, so he had to be dismayed.
He wanted to go back because he knew he would never see that person again. Waiting until the Zhen family's carriage disappeared at the end of the road, Yuan Xi sighed and returned to the city.
Thirty miles away from Xindu is Julu. Before entering the city, Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin and Yan Rou were waiting by the road. Seeing the Zhen family's car, several people hurriedly dismounted. The driver and his horse pulled the car.
Stopped. Zhen Yan looked up and was shocked. The Zhen family's disaster was all because of these people. Unexpectedly, they were still in Jizhou. Xian Yufu said with a smile: "Brother Zhen, we are waiting here.
You’re two days old!”
Zhen Rao heard Xian Yufu's voice, struggled to sit up, and nodded slightly: "Brother Xianyu is still in Jizhou, aren't you afraid that Yuan Shao will do something bad to you?"
Xian Yufu smiled: "Yuan Shao is about to fight against Youzhou. How can he have time to supervise us? Besides, with General Long here, we are not afraid of how many people Yuan Shao comes to! General Long captured Yecheng without losing a single soldier. He has become the leader of Jizhou."
Myth, I believe that no one under Yuan Shao wants to be an enemy of General Long!"
"Oh? Brother Long is also in your army?"
Xian Yufu nodded: "Exactly, it was General Long who asked us to wait for Brother Zhen here. I heard that Brother Zhen is going back to Xia Cai. Listen to me, Xia Cai is also the territory of Jizhou and is still under the control of Yuan Shao. If Yuan Shao
If we do it again, I’m afraid I won’t have such good luck!”
Zhen Rao nodded: "Brother Xianyu, are you recruiting me for Brother Long?"
"Hahaha..." Xian Yufu laughed loudly: "You can also say that it mainly depends on what Brother Zhen wants?"
"Third brother!" Zhen Yan hurriedly took over the conversation: "General Xianyu, my third brother is not very talented. Thank you General Long for your love. After this incident, we just want to go back to Xia Cai and spend this life in peace. We don't want to have anything to do with others.
There’s something involved!”
Zhen Rao said hurriedly: "Second brother, if you want to go back, you can go back. We are loyal to the Yuan family, but we have ended up like this. I must avenge this. Brother Xianyu, I will go with you!"
"Third brother! Third brother!" Zhen Rao struggled to get down from the carriage. Zhen Jiang and Zhen Mi hurriedly helped him. Zhen Rao looked at his two sisters, smiled slightly, turned and walked towards Xian Yufu. Zhen Yan hurriedly walked towards Xian Yufu.
To stop him, Zhen Rao glared: "Second brother, I know you are doing it for our own good! But I don't want to live a useless life, and I can't stay in Cai for a long time now. Listen to what the third brother said, and I will immediately go to Cai.
Pack your things and leave Jizhou. Second brother, take care of several sisters. Third brother, I will definitely avenge this!"
Long Fei stationed Xian Yufu's army in the mountains near Guangzong. This was once the nest of the Yellow Turban Army, and there are still a large number of bandits in the mountains. The officers and soldiers of the county did not dare to exterminate them. As long as these bandits did not come to cause trouble, they would not
Wen Buwen. There are two advantages to stationing here. First, it will not arouse the suspicion of Julu County, and second, you can hide yourself.
Long Fei robbed a bandit's stronghold as his stronghold, arranged his troops and horses on the mountain, and became the king of the mountain. When Xian Yufu and Zhen Yao went up the mountain, Long Fei and Guo Jia speculated on how Yuan Shao would attack Youzhou and Jizhou.
It is now considered stable, Lu Kuang controls Huguan, and Lu Huang is in Maocheng. These two brothers have completely cut off the connection between Zhang Yan and Gongsun Zan, and it is impossible for the two to join forces.
Guo Jiadao said: "If Yuan Shao is not stupid, he can divide his troops into three groups, go all the way to Changshan and Zhongshan, go straight to Zhuojun, and go all the way to Bohai, Yuyang and detour behind Fan Yang. Yuan Shao personally leads the main force from Xindu all the way north through Boling, He
In the meantime, Ren Qiu was approaching the city of Fan Yang, and all three groups came out. Gongsun Zan was tired of dealing with it, so he had to defend Fan Yang!"
Long Fei nodded: "Yuan Shao has many soldiers, so he can indeed do this. If so, Gongsun Zan will definitely be defeated. Should we go to Fan Yang first, wait for Yuan Shao to besiege the city, and work together to capture Gongsun Zan?"
Guo Jia shook his head: "This is just our guess. During this time in Xindu, I carefully observed Yuan Shao's troops and formations. He will not do this. Yuan Shao hopes for a decisive battle and defeats Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop, so he will concentrate all his troops.
Attack a little and force Gongsun Zan to fight decisively! But Gongsun Zan relies on his own bravery, so he will definitely fall into the trap!"
"Oh? Fengxiao is so sure?"
Guo Jia pointed to Yi County: "This is the intersection of the inner and outer Great Walls. After passing the Great Wall to the west is Bingzhou, and to the north you can enter the grassland. Gongsun Zan has united with Zhang Yan, and the tribes in the grassland are afraid of Gongsun Zan. This is
Both places are the best places for Gongsun Zan to escape. According to Yan Rou's information, Gongsun Zan has a special fortress in Yi County to store millions of tons of grain and grass. Even if he is besieged for several years, he will not be able to eat them all. If he escapes, these are all capital, so
, once Fan Yang makes a mistake, Yi County will be Gongsun Zan’s final springboard!"
Long Fei looked at the two places on the map, Fanyang and Yixian. Yixian is a county under Zhuojun. It is located close to the Great Wall, with the Inner Great Wall to the west and the Outer Great Wall to the north. The land is flat and is very suitable for Gongsun Zan's cavalry to fight.
, he can run very fast even if he escapes. Long Fei nodded: "Feng Xiao is right, this place is indeed a good place to escape. It seems that Gongsun Zan knows that he will lose this battle. It is a pity that Yuan Shao will not divide his troops into three groups.
, if he attacks Zhuojun all the way, he will cut off Gongsun Zan’s escape route!"
"If Yuan Shao doesn't do it, let's do it!" Xian Yufu led Zhen Rao, Zhen Jiang, and Zhen Mi into the big tent.
The expression on Long Fei's face changed immediately when he saw Zhen Jiang. He never expected that Zhen Jiang would come. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he quickly invited a few people to sit down, looked at Zhen Jiang and smiled slightly: "You two girls
Even here, we have a hard time here, so we can just make do with it."
Zhen Jiang smiled faintly at Long Fei, who immediately flew into the clouds and mist. He sent people to clean up a few rooms, and found a few family members from the original village to serve him. Long Fei then left, and Guo Jia shook his head.
Smiling bitterly, he spent his days scolding loudly and doing things regardless of the danger. He only became gentle and considerate towards women. He didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Returning to the main tent, Xian Yufu said: "Since the general and military advisor have determined that Gongsun Zan will go to Yi County, let's set off now and wait there. As soon as Gongsun Zan comes, we will give him nowhere to hide."
Yuan Shao appeased the wealthy merchants of Xindu, settled the internal affairs, and finally decided to attack Gongsun Zan. Just as Guo Jia expected, Yuan Shao rejected the plan of dividing the troops into three groups proposed by Tian Feng and Jushu, and decided to personally lead the army to attack Gongsun Zan from the front.
The attack was about to engage in a decisive battle with Gongsun Zan. On the day the army set out, there was a sea of people. Yuan Shao personally worshiped the heaven and the earth, and killed sheep and cattle to reward the soldiers. A trumpet shot shook the sky, and the army slowly marched out of the gate of Xindu City.
Yuan Shao is bound to win this battle. Since Yuan Shao moved to Jizhou, Gongsun Zan has repeatedly provoked him, and Yuan Shao can only passively defend. This is the first battle. If he wins Youzhou, it will not be a problem to merge the state with Zhang Yan. Unify the four states of Hebei, and this world
Who else dares to compete with him? Dreaming about the future situation, Yuan Shao felt that Yuan Shu was too ridiculous and was too weak to claim the throne. When he became the emperor, he would make Yuan Shu kneel at his feet and let him see who Yuan Shu was.
