Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty Yuan Shao's Ambition
However, Yuan Shao sent Wuhuan troops to kidnap the emperor. What was his intention?
The potter was a little confused.
According to the normal routine, Yuan Shao should have sent troops and horses to surround the city first, creating a huge sense of oppression for the emperor's city, and then sent envoys into the palace to state the interests to the emperor and ask him to take the initiative to surrender as much as possible.
He took the gun with him and took the initiative to return to Hebei with him.
Those who can make a fuss and understand, try not to do anything. After all, he is the emperor, and it will not sound good if it is spread, and the loss of reputation will be too great.
But if this is to be achieved, it must be based on another point, that is, the generals besieging the city must be Hebei generals, and there must be wise men who can enter the city for Yuan Shao to persuade Liu Xie.
But now, Yuan Shao sent Wuhuan cavalry to attack Fandu, and the pottery merchant was a little confused.
How should a group of foreign barbarians who are good at riding horses but not chatty persuade Liu Xie and force him into the palace?
Don't talk about them. When Ma Teng and Han Sui came to the palace to meet them, Han Sui, the frontier bastard, had such a bad fight with Liu Xie that the emperor almost hated him to death.
These fake aliens are like this, let alone the real aliens.
Isn't Yuan Shao afraid that his reputation will be ruined by them?
With suspicion and curiosity, Tao Shang stood still for the time being. He planned to wait for Wuhuan Army Lieutenant General Fan Du to surround him and start peace talks with the Emperor, then attack them unexpectedly behind them, and then kidnap the Emperor and go to Pengcheng.
Seek victory with one blow.
But the development of things was really beyond the potter's expectation.
On the night when the Wuhuan cavalry arrived in Fandu, the Xuzhou School Affairs Bureau reported the matter to Tao Shang in a hurry.
Potter was sleeping at the time, and when he heard the report about school affairs, it was like a basin of cold water was poured directly on his head, and he no longer felt sleepy at all.
"Taifu! The Wuhuan soldiers are attacking Fandu overnight. The Wuhuan cavalry has set fire to the four gates of Fandu. The situation is critical!"
The pottery merchant hurriedly put on his armor and hurried out of the commander's tent to take a look.
The pottery merchant's camp is located on a high ground, and the situation in Fandu can be observed faintly.
Looking from a distance, under the dark night sky, the entire Fan was surrounded by flames, which looked particularly eye-catching. The sky covered with dark clouds was red with the light of the fire. The shouts of killing were accompanied by the sound of the wind, and vaguely reached the ears of the pottery merchant.
middle.
The potter couldn't help but tremble, and something suddenly came to his mind.
He called over the school official and asked him: "Is the alliance between Yuan Shao and King Wuhuan made public to the world? Is the alliance between the two parties made public?"
The school official shook his head and said: "No! But the Wuhuan group is located in the north. Without Yuan Shao's permission, how could they pass through Hebei..."
"It's broken!" Tao Shang stamped his feet and said, "Where are the generals? Call them over quickly!"
The school official said hurriedly: "Everyone is already waiting outside the meeting room!"
The potter turned around quickly.
This time, the generals who stayed with the pottery merchant were Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Xu Rong, Ji Ling, Gan Ning, Xu Sheng, and Zang Ba.
Seeing that they were all wearing armor, Tao Shang was obviously well prepared, and immediately said: "It will be a fierce battle against Wuhuan! Yuan Shao's purpose has exceeded Tao's imagination. He is not trying to kidnap the emperor at all.
But to kill the emperor."
"What?" When the generals heard this, they all looked surprised.
In the past, Zhao Yun had also heard that a pottery merchant told him that Yuan Shao's power structure depended on the support of noble families, so from a certain profit perspective, he was unwilling to bring the emperor to Yecheng.
But even so, if he is good at killing the emperor, isn't he afraid that the wealthy families who support him will fall overnight?
Seemingly seeing Zhao Yun's doubts, Tao Shang shook his head helplessly and reminded him: "I know what you are thinking, second brother. The question is... where is the evidence?"
Zhao Yun woke up only after hearing this.
It turns out that even if the alliance between Yuan Shao and Wu Huan is logical, there is no proof. Yuan Shao has never openly admitted his friendship with Wu Huan. Although King Wu Huan had sent troops to attack Gongsun Zan with Yuan Shao back then,
, but that was just because King Wuhuan and Gongsun Zan had a personal grudge. The heroes of the north were a huge threat to King Wuhuan, but this did not mean that he and Yuan Shao were allies.
But now, even if Wuhuan can pass through Hebei, Yuan Shao can use all his troops to conquer Cao Cao and the pottery merchants have no time to defend the prefectures and counties and pass the buck.
In this way, the death of the emperor has nothing to do with him.
But after the emperor dies, what will happen to the world?
In response to Cao Cao's words in history: "I don't know how many people are called emperors and how many people are called kings."
At that time, the world will become a leaderless situation with kings everywhere.
And among the kings, who is the most popular among the scholars of the past, and who is powerful enough to rule the world?
It must be Yuan Shao, the Fourth Generation and Three Dukes.
The pottery merchant began to sneer in his heart.
In the era I traveled to, Yuan Shu did not take the lead in proclaiming himself emperor. Instead, it was Yuan Shao, a bastard, who dreamed of being emperor first!
But I have to admit that Yuan Shao's methods are undoubtedly much better than those of Yuan Shu in history.
…
Fandu, under the city gate.
Whether inside or outside the city, Fan Du was supposed to be in peace and solitude at this moment, but today it was destined to not be as usual.
Although the people in the city were hiding in their houses and did not dare to come out, there were all kinds of movements in the streets and alleys. Teams of tiger and warrior soldiers were running around. Many people in the city were secretly reinforcing their doors and windows with wooden boards.
Deep inside the house, the barking of startled dogs is indispensable, adding a bit of anxiety to this dangerous and uneasy moment.
Just outside the east city gate of Fan County, firelight was shining and people were buzzing.
Groups of Wuhuan cavalry were going back and forth outside the city, setting fires everywhere, and charging cars were bombarding the city gate of Fandu. Groups of Wuhuan soldiers who climbed to the top of the city on ladders waved their scimitars and shouted loudly.
Shouting and shouting, they fought bravely with the tiger troops on the top of the city.
The three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei stood at the top of the city, stabilizing morale, and commanded the Huben army to attack the invading Wuhuan army.
The two fierce generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, a Green Dragon Sword and a Zhangba Snake Spear, were like two deadly life-killing weapons on the top of the city, frantically harvesting the lives of the Wuhuan soldiers who boarded the city.
But even so, facing the endless stream of Wuhuan soldiers, no matter how powerful Liu, Guan, and Zhang were, they were like duckweed in the wind and could not last long.
Although Wuhuan King Qiu Liju is old, he has always led the three Wuhuan king tribes in Youbeiping, Yuyang and Shanggu. He also has outstanding leadership talents such as Su Puyan and Tadun under his command.
Under his leadership, he became very powerful, with countless cavalry and an army of up to 100,000 people. In particular, Tadun, the king of western Liaoning who was designated by Qiu Liju, was known as "the hero of hundreds of barbarians".
Now there is this powerful Wuhuan army attacking Fandu. Although Liu Guan and Zhang are brave, the Tiger and Ben troops under his command are just soldiers who have just been trained for a short time. It is already very good to be able to persist to this level.
The entire Fandu is now in danger of losing its eggs.
