As a die-hard fan of the Scholar Group, Xu You is definitely qualified.
All forces that are against the scribes group are regarded as enemies by Xu You, and they must fight to the death to be satisfied.
Wei You was moved by Xu You's persistent spirit, so he went against Liu Yu's wishes for the first time in his life, sent himself to Pingyuan City, and went around to raise soldiers for Xu You, so that Xu You could carry out the assassination of Han Ling.
Emperor's plan.
But the biggest difference between Wei You and Xu You lies in the choice of the new emperor. Xu You believes that the Marquis of Hefei, who has low ability and a cowardly personality, is more suitable to be emperor. Only when an emperor like the Marquis of Hefei comes to power can the scribes group be able to maximize their power.
Control the government.
Wei You, on the other hand, was loyal to Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, and wanted to put Liu Yu on the throne. He believed that only Liu Yu, who was both civil and military, could lead the Han Dynasty to glory again.
It's a pity that the two men's plan to assassinate Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty failed completely, and was thrown into chaos by Lin Feng who appeared out of nowhere.
Having lost the best opportunity for an assassination, the two men hid in Pingyuan City and worked hard to create a second opportunity for the assassination.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty refused to give them a second chance, and they stretched out their legs and stared into another world.
Now the two of them didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty died and followed their wishes.
But the vacated throne also has no chance for Liu Yu or the Marquis of Hefei.
As for whether there would be any chance of assassination after the new emperor ascended the throne, these two people did not even dare to think about it.
No one has ever been able to successfully assassinate the emperor under the heavy protection of the palace. After the new emperor ascends the throne, it is obvious that he will not have the opportunity to leave the capital and travel around the world within two or three years.
In other words, the plan that the two of them had planned for several years has been shattered, and there will never be any chance again.
So Xu You set his sights on Prince Bian.
Prince Bian grew up in a Taoist family and was deeply influenced by the Taoist philosophy of governing by doing nothing.
If the new emperor fully lets go of the government after he comes to power, the Scholars Group will be the most likely force to regain control of the government.
The Wuren Group itself is divided into several incompatible forces, such as the He Jin Group headed by He Jin and the Veteran Group headed by Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, and Huangfu Song. The two sides will fight with white knives in and red knives out when they meet, but as long as there is
If given the opportunity, he would definitely kick the opponent desperately from behind or fly up.
Besides, when it comes to playing tricks in the court, the warrior group even thinks their fingers are too thick when carrying shoes for the scribe group.
As for the eunuch group, it is purely a sword in the hands of the emperor. If the owner of the sword no longer cares about the power in his hand, then the sword as a tool is even less likely to affect the change of power.
It's a pity that Xu You and Wei You are not extremely capable super counselors. They can't see that the network of relationships secretly woven by Shi Changshi has been destroyed.
It has grown to an astonishing extent.
If we look at it carefully, even the white-faced Cao Cao can be considered one of the hidden spies of the eunuch group.
Although Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was a marquis and once rose to the rank of Taiwei, and seemed to have close contacts with the scribes group, Cao Song's adoptive father was the eunuch Cao Teng, and even Cao Song inherited his title from Cao Teng. Moreover, Cao Cao was an early member of the eunuch.
He was an official in Luoyang and was appointed as the Northern Wei of Luoyang. It was precisely because Cao Song, who had retired and returned home at that time, used the friendship of the eunuch Cao Teng to beg the Shichang Shimen that Cao Cao was able to successfully enter the official position.
The martial arts group, including Dong Zhuo and others, also relied on paying and providing food and bribes to the ten ministers in order to be promoted and promoted. The actual position of these people has not been tested by facts, and no one can really be sure.
When Wei You and Xu You were worried about important national affairs, they suddenly heard the roar of gunfire outside Pingyuan City. They didn't know what was going on and hurriedly ordered people to go out to find out.
Not long after, Tan Ma came to report.
A large number of armed troops dressed as Yellow Turbans appeared outside the city, and their fighting power was extremely strong. The officers and soldiers guarding the north gate were defeated at the first touch, and have now been completely wiped out by the incoming enemy.
Wei You hurriedly pulled Xu You: "Brother Ziyuan, you and I will lead our troops to the north gate to prevent the rebels from entering Pingyuan City and causing more killings."
Nowadays, there are fake Yellow Turbans everywhere in the world. Even fools know that one of the ten Yellow Turbans is real. The rest are private armies secretly cultivated by certain forces. There are even officers and soldiers dressed as Yellow Turbans.
They looted and amassed money, but few dared to openly attack a fortified city.
Now that Pingyuan has encountered an attack by unknown armed forces, Wei You, as the governor of Pingyuan, certainly does not want his territory to become the object of arbitrary slaughter by others.
The two men hurriedly came to the front yard, but before they could beat the drums to gather the generals, another scout horse came to report that the enemy did not enter from the north gate, but somehow went around to the east gate and swept through the officers and soldiers guarding the east gate.
The two of you looked at each other and saw countless puzzlements and confusions in each other's eyes.
Walter, what are you doing with oil?
It’s not that we are not smart, it’s just that the enemy is too nervous!
A normal person can never predict the next step of a mentally ill person.
Well, it's useless to think so much. First gather all the generals in the army. No matter what the enemy's intention is, at most the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the ground.
The next report from Tan Ma confused Wei You and Xu You even more.
Neither of them are the kind of tactical counselors who are unparalleled in responding to an enemy's situation. Both of them are good at strategy. When it comes to grasping the situation and judging the direction of events, both of them have unique visions.
But they are unprofessional in making decisions when faced with an enemy.
Huang Zhong led his army to massacre four gates, causing people in Pingyuan City to panic. Both the common people and the officers and soldiers were at a loss and did not know how to respond.
Attack the four gates at the same time to show that you are coming
The enemy has a strong force and is trying to siege the city, break down the walls, and occupy the plains. When there is a change of dynasty, the war is most chaotic, and the unlucky ones are always the lower class people.
But Wei You and the others had relatively accurate information. They could not defeat the two thousand soldiers and horses from outside the city, not to mention that they were not enough to surround Pingyuan City. Even if they set up a battle formation and fight Pingyuan City soldiers in a fair fight with the generals, they would only be able to defeat them.
There is a winning rate of less than 20%.
I really don’t know who the commander of the enemy troops outside the city is. Did he come to the plain to make a fool of himself?
Just when both of you were unable to determine the enemy's intentions, a general strode out of the hall and walked in.
The person who came was eight feet tall, with a tiger-like back and a wasp-like waist, a dark red complexion, and a beard standing straight under his chin. Unfortunately, a pair of slender phoenix eyes on his face destroyed the majesty of this general.
"The last general Yan Liang has met the prefect."
"Ah, Lieutenant Yan, the number of enemies here is less than three thousand, but they are powerful in combat. They are wandering outside the four gates of our Pingyuan City at this time, but I don't know why they are here?"
Yan Liang, you have been in battle for a long time. Tell us quickly. What do you want to do with this wave of enemy troops coming and going outside the city?
Yan Liang smiled slightly: "I see what the bandits did outside the city. They must be afraid of the power of our army and dare not enter the city. However, they want to gain benefits from the plains, so they wander around to scare the people in the city and use this to attack our army."
Putting pressure on the governor, the governor had to compromise with the traitors."
Governor Wei, these people are just scaring people. They dare not actually attack the city. If we are frightened, then the thieves will succeed.
When Wei You heard Yan Liang's analysis, he immediately twirled his beard and smiled. Yan Liang was indeed a leader in the army. It was worth my efforts to transfer him from the Jizhou army to Pingyuan.
Xu You had a bad temper, and after hearing Yan Liang's analysis, he became furious.
"In this case, I also ask Lieutenant Yan to lead his troops out of the city immediately, kill the enemy in front of the horse, and quickly offer his head in front of the case of Wei Taishou."
Don't be pushy, since you don't take the enemy seriously, then send out troops to kill the enemy and bring back their heads for credit.
Yan Liang looked solemn and clasped his fists with his hands: "I respectfully obey General Xu's order. The general will leave the city right now to meet the enemy. It only takes a moment to sacrifice the enemy general's head."
After saying that, Yan Liang turned around and strode away.
Xu You raised a big finger at Wei You: "Brother Wei has a unique vision. He actually picked up such a tiger general at a glance among the Jizhou army with mediocre combat power. It is really a blessing for Pingyuan City."
Wei You nodded proudly: "Zi Yuan is so complimentary. I wanted to pick a general to train with, but I was just lucky and happened to get this tiger general."
I really can’t say that I have good taste, just good luck.
Xu You secretly curled his lips and said, "Take it down. I don't know who it was that stayed up for three days and two nights, going through the resumes of all the generals in the army in the North, and then transferred Yan Liang to his side through Liu Yu."
But now you are the boss in Pingyuan City, and you have the final say in everything.
