"The emperor ordered Yuan Tan to be the general of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Ying township." In the big account, the trick was to convey the emperor''s edict to Yuan Tan and others.
The Marquis of Ying township was Yuan Shao''s initial knighthood, which was not high, but it was Xiangyang''s recognition of Yuan Tan''s identity.
"Thank you, general." Yuan Tan bowed down to thank him.
Gratitude is sincere, not a trick. Maybe he has been defeated by Yuan Shang and is obsessed with Ye.
But this feeling is only temporary. When Yuan Shao was there, he had more scenery than yuan Tan now.
"The rest of you don''t need to worry. The imperial court has its own reward." "As long as you are willing to work for the imperial court, you don''t have to worry about unclear rewards and punishments."
"Thank you, general." Everyone said in unison.
"Yuan Shang has defeated Yecheng. I don''t know what plans yuan Zhenbei has?" Quirky asked.
Yuan Tan was so nervous that he got the benefit and had to contribute.
"But at the general''s command." Yuan Tan said.
"Originally, this is your brother''s business. I shouldn''t have intervened, but it involves the dignity of the imperial court." The trick "helpless" said, "it is the so-called ''no two days, no two masters'', the existence of Yecheng court makes the son of heaven like a lump in his throat, and he wants to get rid of it quickly."
"I wanted to send troops directly to Yecheng, but yuan Zhenbei has been in Yecheng for a long time and is more familiar with the land of Hebei, so I won''t rob yuan Zhenbei of this credit."
"What do you need? Despite the words of Yuan Zhenbei, someone will prepare everything needed to attack the city. I also hope that Yuan Zhenbei will make a trip as soon as possible, take Yecheng and kill the rebels, so as to comfort the court. "
"At the end of the day, I will obey. The general can rest assured that he will send troops to Jizhou within ten months." Yuan Tan replied.
He doesn''t want this credit, but he also knows that he can''t refuse it.
……
"General, Xu you is visiting secretly." At night, Dianwei, who was on patrol, reported.
"Invite him in!" Quirky smiled.
Sure enough, people are selfish. They sweep the snow in front of the door. Yuan Tan''s eyes look at it. His civil and military forces began to find another way.
Xu you is neither the first nor the last.
"Mr. Ziyuan, why are you here late at night?" Quirky asked with a smile.
"Why should the general ask clearly?" Xu you said, "when I came down here, I naturally surrendered to the general."
"Yuan Zhenbei has defected, sir, why bother?" Said the trick.
"Although yuan Zhenbei defected, I am still the Minister of Yuan Zhenbei. After today, I am willing to be the Minister of the general." Xu you said.
"Very well, sir. I''ll understand what you mean," said the trick with a smile, "but please work under the command of Yuan Zhenbei first in the future."
"I take the liberty to ask, when can I come under the command of the general?" Xu you asked.
"When Yecheng is broken, sir can enter the dynasty." Said the trick.
"I wonder what the general needs to do next?" Xu you asked again.
"It''s very simple. Just like before, it can assist yuan Zhenbei to attack yuan Shang." The trick said, "don''t care about the loss."
It was not a cruel trick. He gave Yuan Tan a chance, but after defeating yuan Shang, Yuan Tan did not give up his army at all. The trick knew that he was unwilling.
That''s why Yuan Tan was forced to attack Yecheng and consume his army.
"General, what are the general''s arrangements for the north of yuan town?" Xu you finally asked.
"Sir, are you worried about his ending?" Quirky asked.
"Yes, I have been with Benchu for decades. I can''t bear to see his son fall." Xu you said.
"Yuan Xiansi may not be in charge of the army, or he may belong to Jiuqing." After thinking about the trick for a while, he replied to Xu you, "the premise is that he keeps his nose in the mud and won''t cause trouble to Ben."
"I know what to do." Xu you leaves.
……
"The imperial edict ordered Yuan Tong, the governor of Youzhou, Gao Gan, the governor of Binzhou, and Cao An, the governor of Hanoi, to lead the army to Yecheng to help." Yuan Shangbai returned to Yecheng and immediately sent someone to issue an imperial edict.
However, half a month later, Yuan Tan sent troops to attack Yecheng, and all the troops set out, but they couldn''t wait for a response.
Yuan Tong is not in Jixian at all. The officials left behind say that the assassin is not there and they can''t make their own decisions. If there''s anything else, wait until the assassin comes back.
Yuan Tong, the governor of Youzhou, is attacking all the departments of Xianbei in Central China together with the leader of Wuhuan of Daijun. They are going to hit the Tanghan mountain of Wangting in Xianbei. How can you pay attention to Yuan Shang!
After all, Yuan Shao has a high prestige in Hebei. In his eyes, Yuan Shang is just a second ancestor who inherits the shadow of his father''s generation, which can''t even compare with Yuan Tan.
Gao Gan replied that the white wave thieves in the Xihe River were back, the southern Xiongnu was ready to move, and the Xianbei random soldiers who fled from the East and central had the potential to enter the pass, and Bingzhou was unable to support Yecheng.
It''s true. After arriving in Chang''an, he met Yang Feng and Li le and was relieved, but he didn''t care about the recovery of Hedong because it didn''t match his overall plan.
In order to appease them, the trick told them that they could unite with the white wave thieves to create a momentum in Bingzhou and cooperate with him to attack Hebei. Once they calm Hebei, they will not hesitate to be prosperous and rich.
Yang Feng and his wife were helpless. Now the trick was even bigger. Before, the two little people had no reason to bargain, so they promised to try. Not only did I try, but also because of my old friends, I took the right virtuous king of the southern Xiongnu to be humble.
Of course, it''s just a bluff. The power of the white wave army is much lower than before. Now it has lost its ability to attack counties.
This is what Gao Gan said about the changes in Baibo and the southern Xiongnu. As for the chaos in Xianbei, it is naturally because Yuan Tong and Tuli attacked Xianbei in the East and central China. After the defeat, Xianbei people who were unwilling to surrender moved west to the north of Bingzhou.
It''s true, but it''s not necessarily how much impact it has on Bingzhou. Gao Gan takes this as an excuse to say that he doesn''t want to support Yecheng anymore.
He thought he had made outstanding contributions in Yuan Shao group. At the beginning, he personally persuaded Han Fu to give up Jizhou, and finally won the position of governor of Binzhou.
In other people''s eyes, this is a vassal holding great power, but in fact, Gao Gan is not willing, because this assassin has no name and reality. He has to obey Yuan Shao''s orders in everything and has no autonomy at all. As the governor of Bingzhou, he had no influence on the decision-making of the central government.
Therefore, after Yuan Shao''s death, senior cadres did not want to listen to Yecheng''s orders. Like Yuan Tong, he did not like yuan Shang. In history, he sat and watched yuan Shang fight with Cao Cao, and finally the land of Hebei was broken by Cao Cao.
Cao An''s reason is even more straightforward. He directly said that Bai Bo army Yang Feng and Li Le were going to attack Hedong. In addition, Zhou Yu of Zhongmou showed signs of crossing the river to attack Hanoi. His soldiers were less worried about being unable to defend, so he asked yuan Shang to send troops for support.
Otherwise, if Hedong and Hanoi are lost, it will not be his responsibility.
"A group of ruthless things, your father died, you want to betray. Fortunately, I still think you are relatives," Yecheng, Yuan Shang, who got the reward, was furious. "What cousins, cousins and even brothers are not as powerful as power in case."
Yuan Shang finally realized the evil of human nature and realized that Yuan Shao''s was not easy.
Although the great general is powerful, he is not easy to be.
