Great Military Division

Chapter 163: Abolish the emperor and correct the righteousness, crusade against Dong Zhuo?
Subdued Sun Jian and obtained his soldiers and horses.

After deducting the battle losses, Liu Bian's total force reached more than [-] troops.

According to the opinion of the Military Division Alliance, Liu Bian fully mixed Tang Mao's soldiers and horses, Sun Jian's soldiers and horses, private soldiers of the gentry, and the remnants of the Yellow Turbans of Funiu Mountain, disrupted their original organizational system as much as possible, and then redistributed them to avoid forming groups.

Choose the elite to build an army, and get 3000 soldiers.

Secondly, form the Nanyang garrison and get 3000 soldiers.

The rest serve as functional arms such as scouts, messengers, and grain transporters according to their characteristics.

"Master Bian, after you leave Nanyang with your troops, Nanyang will be handed over to Tang Mao to be guarded. He was originally the governor of Kuaiji County, and with his status as the father-in-law of Hongnong Wang, it will not be a problem to guard Nanyang."

"Our previous plan was to continuously exploit the Nanyang gentry, exhaust their patience, and complete the screening of the gentry. Previously, experts suggested that Xun Yu should do it, but now it seems that it is better to leave this kind of thing to Yu Fan."

"This kid has an upright and straightforward personality. If he is responsible for collecting food and grass, it will definitely make Nanyang nobles and nobles suffer. Tang Mao still holds three thousand soldiers and horses in his hand, so there is no need to worry about them taking the opportunity to act as a demon."

"When Dong Zhuo comes back from the crusade, it is estimated that the screening of the Nanyang gentry is almost done. At that time, we will immediately start the cleaning of the gentry, recruit a group, fight a group, and kill a group to establish prestige, so as to completely stabilize Nanyang."

"."

Every time after listening to the expert's plan, Liu Bian always felt suddenly happy and bursting with self-confidence.

It is precisely under the vision that experts keep describing that Liu Bian has been able to persevere all the way to the present.

but
Now Liu Bian seems a little absent-minded.

His mind was full of other things, he simply interrupted the expert's plan, and asked in his heart: "Teacher, let's not worry about how it will develop in the future, can you answer me a question?"

The voice of the Military Division Alliance stopped abruptly.

Immediately.

After a pause for a few seconds, it rang again: "You ask."

Liu Bian became interested: "Two days ago, I heard from netizens that during the crusade against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao and Han Fu wanted to support Liu Yu as emperor in order to fight against Dong Zhuo, but Liu Yu refused."

"Teacher~~"

Liu Bian was serious, and asked tentatively: "Liu Yu is just a Han family clan relative. There is no comparison between my prince's identity and the identity of the abolished emperor."

"Is there a possibility that Yuan Shao and Han Fu will not establish Liu Yu as emperor, but instead support me, the emperor who was deposed by Dong Zhuo, in order to fight against the puppet Han court under Dong Zhuo's power?"

"One thing in advance, although I am a layman and I also have a dream of becoming an emperor, but the throne of the emperor must be well-deserved, otherwise it will cause great disasters. I am still clear about this, and it is purely curious."

What is the emperor's dream?
In short, as long as you become an emperor, all your dreams can come true, such as dignity, status, material, money, beautiful women, you can have whatever you want.

This is the emperor's dream!

Liu Bian admits that he is a layman.

He also has a dream of becoming an emperor. When he was in Luoyang, he was too dangerous to imagine, but now he is bewitched by netizens, and this kind of situation did exist in history. thought.

But he knows better.
Imperial power must be linked to strength, without absolute strength, it is difficult to support imperial power.

As for strengthening the throne, it can give oneself an advantage in politics, which needs to be affirmed by experts.

After a short pause.

The voice of the military division alliance finally sounded: "Master Bian, in fact, recently, experts have conducted special discussions on this issue, but the controversy is a little bit big now."

"Of course!"

Afraid of Liu Bian's misunderstanding, the military division alliance quickly explained: "The emperor must be elected, but there are still disputes about how, how, and when."

"Historically, Yuan Shao and Han Fu really wanted to support Liu Yu as emperor, but more importantly, they used Liu Yu's political capital and treated him like Liu Xie's puppet."

"Liu Yu is the elder of the clan, which is the prerequisite for Yuan Shaoyi to make Liu Yu emperor. In terms of background, he is the descendant of Liu Qiang, King Gong of the East China Sea, and Liu Qiang is the eldest son of Emperor Guangwu. After his biological mother was abolished in Jianwu 17, he took the initiative Resign the crown prince and make him the king of the East China Sea."

"This status as an offshoot of the royal family can not only constitute the conditions for support, but also effectively weaken its appeal after successful support. This is just right for Yuan Shao, who is always ambitious."

"But Master Bian, you are different."

A mysterious turn of the military division alliance said: "Although you are more legal and more justified than Liu Yu, for Yuan Shao, it is more difficult to control. What Yuan Shao wants is to impose imperial power on himself and strengthen himself, not to find himself a dad."

"Therefore, the experts came up with such a conjecture that Yuan Shao probably wouldn't take the initiative to ask to help Lord Bian. The reason is very simple, because the emperor is far away from the mountains, and he has no way to control you!"

"If Yuan Shao really wants to strengthen Lord Bian and let you become the emperor to fight against the Dong family, there may be additional conditions, such as asking Lord Bian to leave Nanyang and fall into his embrace."

"However, even so, it is also very dangerous for Yuan Shao. After all, with the help of experts, the total strength of Master Bian is close to 3. With such strength, he is no longer inferior to any prince."

"Perhaps, Yuan Shao is equal to you in terms of military strength, Lord Bian, but welcoming you back in this way is tantamount to leading a wolf into the house. Lord Bian is fully capable of fighting Yuan Shao head-on!"

"Is Yuan Shao stupid?"

The Military Division Alliance issued a soul-level rhetorical question: "Right up a father, and be your own son?"

Liu Bian nodded in agreement: "That makes sense! What about Yuan Shu?"

The Alliance of Military Advisors disdainfully said: "Although I don't know whether Yuan Shu has the idea of ​​becoming the emperor now, but now he is participating in the discussion as a general in the future, and he does not have his own territory. Fuzheng Bian will be the emperor and he will be his grandson?"

Uh.
Liu Bian looked slightly embarrassed.

Yuan Shao straightened himself up, treating him like a son;

Yuan Shu straightened himself up, but treated him like a grandson.

Obviously, in the eyes of experts, Yuan Shu's strength is far inferior to Yuan Shao's, especially Yuan Shu after he was taken away from Nanyang, even though he has the halo of honor of the fourth generation and the third prince, but in front of Liu Bian, he is nothing at all!
"what?"

Liu Bian was slightly disappointed, and frowned slightly: "After listening to the expert's analysis, wouldn't it mean that I can't be the emperor?"

The Alliance of Military Advisors continued: "Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu probably wouldn't be able to straighten Lord Bian, but Lord Bian can right himself. After all, the capital accumulated by Lord Bian over such a long period of time is not inferior to the princes of one side at all."

"If you want soldiers and horses, you need soldiers and horses, if you want territory, you need territory, if you want strong generals, you need strong generals, if you want counselors, you need counselors, and if you want status, you need status. If you want to straighten yourself, it's just a matter of minutes."

"and"

The Alliance of Military Advisors emphasized: "After Master Bian straightened himself up, the value of the emperor in Dong Zhuo's hands will naturally decline, and the crusade against rebels will also be justified."

"The most important thing is that Lord Bian has gained a political advantage, not only in the fight for the chairman, but also in the future competition. You have the upper hand in name, at least from your point of view. "

"You know, if Cao Cao wants to gain this kind of advantage, he still has to rely on the emperor to command the princes, but Lord Bian, you are the emperor yourself, and you are born with this advantage, so you don't need to be so troublesome."

What the hell!

Liu Bian really wanted to ask.

Since there are so many advantages, why do experts still struggle?

Of course, Liu Bian was not so reckless, but asked tentatively: "Teacher, since you have so many advantages in correcting yourself, why do experts still struggle? Could there be any hidden dangers in doing so?"

"Of course there is!"

The military division alliance said with great certainty: "First, Master Bian straightened himself up, and Liu Xie in Dong Zhuo's hands depreciated rapidly. He must not be reconciled, and he will definitely gather heavy troops to conquer Lord Bian."

"Although Master Bian currently has more than 2 soldiers and horses, which is comparable to any prince, but compared with Dong Zhuo, to be honest, the gap in strength is still a bit big."

Liu Bian nodded with interest.

Have to admit.

This point is indeed very fatal, which is equivalent to touching Dong Zhuo's bottom line.

"That's right!"

Liu Bian took it seriously and said: "Dong Zhuo is a powerful old dog, we have to guard against it! But teacher, we have so many princes, are we still worried that we won't be able to kill Dong Zhuo?"

"That brings us to the second point."

The Alliance of Military Advisors took advantage of the situation and continued to say: "Although there are many princes in the alliance, they each have their own ghosts and ambitions. It is still unknown whether they will support Master Bian."

"At least from the current inference, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu will definitely not support Lord Bian, because what they need is a puppet that can be controlled, not a real emperor."

"Yuan Kai has been planning for so long, and his purpose is to let the Yuan family completely turn over and be the master, instead of making a wedding dress for Lord Bian. Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are very aware of this, so they will never support Lord Bian."

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu represent the Yuan family. As long as they don't support Lord Bian, a large part of the princes will not support Lord Bian. Even if they support him, they may be false supporters."

"Once the battle starts at that time, they will either miss the opportunity, delay sending troops, or deal with it at will. In short, if there is even half a mistake, it will be Master Bian who will suffer in the end."

"so."

The military division alliance concluded: "The key to the second point is to see how many sincere supporters you can have. A small number of supporters will not be able to stop Dong Zhuo. possible."

"Earlier, Lord Bian, you issued a call for thieves. In a sense, you wanted to recruit more supporters to come to the alliance in your capacity as the abolished emperor, Lord Bian."

"If these forces come to form an alliance sincerely, sincerely support Lord Bian to revitalize the Han Dynasty, and if they are gathered together so that they can compete with Dong Zhuo, it is not impossible for Lord Bian to straighten himself up."

"Under the command of the alliance experts, it is absolutely no problem to fight Dong Zhuo evenly. It is even possible to defeat Dong Zhuo if you perform better and your teammates are stronger."

"As for the remaining hidden dangers."

The voice of the Military Division Alliance paused for a moment, and then said again: "It's not a big problem at all. With the guidance of experts from the Military Division Alliance, it is not too difficult to avoid and eliminate what should be avoided."

huh~~~
Liu Bian breathed out a long breath, and said in his heart: "I understand, what the experts mean, the emperor will sooner or later be righted, be conservative, he can be righted after the end of the appeal, be aggressive, and he will be righted when the appeal is in progress."

"Is it right?"

Liu Bian asked tentatively.

"almost."

The military division alliance said softly: "After the end of the war against Dong, the princes of the world have entered the era of vying for the throne. At this time, the emperor's advantage will be revealed, and Lord Bian will naturally do his part."

"And if you want to be the emperor when you are seeking directors, it depends on how many real supporters you have, supporters who can throw their heads and blood for Lord Bian."

"If the number is large enough, it is absolutely possible to right yourself during the appeal for the director, and this force can also give Master Bian a certain advantage after the appeal for the director is over."

"But if there are not many supporters."

The voice of the Military Division Alliance seemed a little disappointed: "In a sense, Lord Bian forcibly straightened himself up, which is equivalent to setting himself on fire. The capital accumulated before may be lost in one battle."

"This"

Liu Bian was a little scared.

After half a year, it finally developed like this, and then lost everything in the first battle?
Liu Bian couldn't accept this kind of thing from the bottom of his heart.

but
He was still a little unwilling: "Teacher, I am the King of Hongnong, the Prince Bian, and even the Deposed Emperor. With this status, the clansmen of the counties and states in Yuzhou, how can I not support it?"

"Debate~"

The military division alliance smiled: "Can we be sober, behind the identity is always the interests, everyone is weighing the pros and cons, how can there be so many true feelings."

"First, after hundreds of years after the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the Decree of Encouragement, the power of the clan is no longer as strong as imagined. Not everyone is King Chen and Liu Chong. It should be said that he is a special case in the clan."

"Secondly, even if someone doesn't support you, isn't he still a certain king? Can you still send troops to attack him? Even if you expressly support you, how can you benefit others? Do you want to restore the power of the clan?"

"Do not make jokes."

Before Liu Bian could open his mouth, the Military Division Alliance directly rejected it: "Once this opening is opened, it will be difficult to close it in the future. Even if you get support for a short time, it will add hidden dangers to the future. It is tantamount to drinking poison to quench your thirst."

Liu Bian could only laugh: "Could it be that no one will support me except the clan?"

Military Division Alliance: "There will definitely be, but experts are not sure how many, the benefits are out of proportion to the risks. If Master Bian insists on taking risks, he may even lose his pants."

Uh.
Feeling helpless, Liu Bian breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's wait for the result of the alliance, and then make a decision. Safety is the first priority. Don't be too wasteful. We can afford to wait for how long it takes to get a director."

The Alliance of Military Advisors comforted: "Don't be too disappointed, Lord Bian. Once possible, the experts also hope that there are mature conditions to help him become emperor in advance. This will be beneficial to future development."

Liu Bian nodded: "Yes, I understand! In fact, I'm not that anxious, but I was a little moved when I heard what netizens said. I understand the principles of building high walls, accumulating food, and becoming king slowly."

Benedict!Benedict!Benedict!
"Your Highness~~"

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the hall.

It's Xun Yu.

Liu Bian made a judgment immediately: "Come in, Wen Ruo."

squeak~~
Xun Yu pushed the door open and entered, bowing: "Your Highness, there is news from Luyang that the construction of the allied camp is about to be completed, and it's time for us to set off to seek Dong."

"Ah."

Liu Bian nodded and let out a sigh of relief: "Wen Ruo is Wang Zuo's talent. As a staff officer with the army, he has to discuss the war with Wen Ruo all the time. I will leave all the rear matters to the county guard of Tang."

Xun Yu bowed, "No."

Liu Bian tentatively asked: "Wen Ruo, don't you have any ideas?"

Xun Yu smiled lightly, and bowed again: "Don't worry, Your Highness, in fact, I have exactly the same intention."

Liu Bian was very pleased: "You can do this, I am very lonely. If so, I will set off for Luyang tomorrow morning."

Xun Yu: "No."
