Chapter 874: The Turbulent Times at the End of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shu’s Rise

A new sky appeared.

A young man COSPLAYing as Zhuge Liang appears on the screen.

He wore a feather fan and a long silk scarf, took a sip of tea from a covered bowl, and then woke up with a click of a stick.

Then he began to speak slowly.

【It is said that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the country was in chaos, many heroes emerged, and the princes divided their kingdoms. 】

[Especially after the failure of the princes' campaign against Dong, the social order was completely broken, and the era of eating chicken began! ]

【So, do you know who the main princes were in the late Eastern Han Dynasty? 】

How did they rise?

[Hello everyone, I am Xiao Zhuge, the UP host of Dongjin Video Network. 】

【Today, I, Xiao Zhuge, will tell you about it. 】

[The first lord I want to introduce is none other than the one who is known as the father of all the people in the Three Kingdoms! Our father of art, Skeleton King Yuan Shu! ]

[It is said that in 189 AD, Dong Zhuo was stirring up trouble in the capital, causing chaos in the court. ]

【Yuan Shu was also demoted by Dong Zhuo in secret and his military power was taken away.】

[Yuan Shu saw that the situation was not right and ran to Nanyang.]

[Coincidentally, Changsha Governor Sun Jian dealt with Nanyang Governor Zhang Zi, and then turned around and led his troops to join Yuan Shu.]

[This time, Yuan Shu got the Nanyang County territory for nothing.]

[You should know that Nanyang has fertile land, a large population, and a key location. It is the hometown of Emperor Guangwu. ]

[It can be said that Yuan Shu, who was born into a family of three officials, had a natural start. ]

[He happily started his first step in his fight for supremacy. 】

Outside the sky.

Qin Dynasty.

When Ying Zheng saw this, he also snorted coldly.

But he relaxed his mood again, and said with an attitude of watching the fun:
"Yuan Shu, Tianmu introduced him before. He is the rebellious guy who wanted to drink honey water."

"I am a little puzzled. How could such an ignorant clown dare to claim the throne?"

"This video came at the perfect time. Let me take a look at how strong he is."

"Why do you dare to claim to be emperor?"

"At the moment, it looks like he is taking the first step towards becoming emperor."

"It went very smoothly."

"He has a very high family background and a fertile and critical base."

“It’s a good start.”

"But you can't just claim to be the emperor based on Nanyang County alone, right?"

The sky continues.

[Later, Sun Jian, the leader of Jiangdong, was so powerful that he took Luoyang directly. Dong Zhuo was so scared that he fled to Chang'an overnight.]

[Yuan Shu made Sun Jian the governor of Yuzhou with a wave of his hand.]

【However, Nanyang is only a county in Jingzhou. 】

[How can Yuan Shu be satisfied? ]

[In 192, he sent Sun Jian to attack Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou.]

[Sun Jian was unstoppable in the early stage, and easily captured Fancheng and Dengxian. However, when he was besieging Xiangyang, he was unexpectedly defeated and killed.]

[Fortunately, Sun Jian's nephew Sun Ben was loyal enough to continue following Yuan Shu with the remaining troops of Sun Jian.]

【Seeing that Jingzhou was not easy to take, Yuan Shu turned his attention to Yangzhou. 】

【It just so happened that the governor of Yangzhou, Chen Wen, passed away, and Yuan Shao in Jizhou wanted to install his own man, Yuan Yi, as the governor of Yangzhou.】

[How could Yuan Shu let his brother succeed? ]

[He sent troops to drive Yuan Yi away and replaced him with his own man Chen Yu as governor.]

[Afterwards, Yuan Shu transferred his main forces to Yuzhou, hoping to capture Yanzhou, but he discovered that Yanzhou had already been occupied by Cao Cao.]

[Boss Cao is a tough guy and not easy to deal with. ]

[At that time, Jin Shang, the governor of Yanzhou appointed by Emperor Xian of Han, joined forces with Yuan Shu to fight Cao Cao in order to regain the territory.]

[Yuan Shu stationed his troops in Fengqiu and sent his general Liu Xiang to garrison Kuangting.]

[Cao Cao did not say anything and led his troops to attack Kuangting. ]

[Yuan Shu came to support, but was also defeated by Cao Cao and could only flee back to Fengqiu in disgrace.]

[Cao Cao pursued him relentlessly, and Yuan Shu ran all the way, finally escaping directly back to Yangzhou. ]

[However, at this time, Yuan Shu still held most of the land in Yuzhou. ]

【Yuan Shao fled back to Shouchun, the capital of Yangzhou.】

[I didn't expect Chen Yu to suddenly turn against me and block the door to prevent him from entering the city.]

[Yuan Shu had no choice but to retreat to Yinling first.]

[Although Chen Yu had rebellious intentions, he was afraid of the prestige of the Yuan family and did not dare to take the initiative to attack.]

[Yuan Shu took the opportunity to gather troops in Huaibei to counterattack Shouchun. Chen Yu panicked and sent his brother to ask for peace. Yuan Shu was determined to take Shouchun, so he ignored him and continued to attack.]

[Finally, Chen Yu was defeated and fled to Xuzhou, and Yuan Shu successfully occupied Shouchun. ]

[But the matter is not over yet. Although Yuan Shu appointed himself the governor of Yangzhou, the governors under him did not buy his account.]

[Yuan Shu saw this and thought, this won’t work. He has to find a way to establish his authority.]

[He sent Sun Ce's uncle Wu Jing to attack Danyang Governor Zhou Xin.]

[After winning the battle, Wu Jing will be sent to take over.] [Also Sun Ben will be sent to deal with Zhou Ang, the governor of Jiujiang.]

【After the battle, Yuan Shu appointed Sun Ben as the governor of Yuzhou. 】

[Then, he asked Sun Ce to attack Lu Kang, the governor of Lujiang, and promised that if he won, the position of governor of Lujiang would be Sun Ce's.]

[After Sun Ce fought hard, Yuan Shu changed his mind and gave the post of Lujiang governor to Liu Xun.]

[Now, Sun Ce is extremely dissatisfied with Yuan Shu.]

[The two of them have a grudge against each other. ]

[But Sun Ce didn't dare to attack for the time being. ]

【At this time, Emperor Xian of Han appointed Liu Yao as the governor of Yangzhou. 】

[Because Shouchun, the main city of Yangzhou, was occupied by Yuan Shu, Wu Jing took Liu Yao to Qu'a to settle down.]

【Liu Yao was not happy with Yuan Shu's troubles in Yangzhou, so he drove Wu Jing to Liyang and sent Zhang Ying and Fan Neng to guard Danglikou and Hengjiangjin to guard against Yuan Shu.】

[Yuan Shu was extremely angry and felt like he was being stabbed in the back.]

【So he appointed Hui Qu as the governor of Yangzhou, and sent Wu Jing and Sun Ben to attack Liu Yao together. 】

[After more than a year of fighting, they still failed to defeat the enemy.]

【Emperor Xian of Han was surprised to see that Liu Yao was a good fighter.】

[So Liu Yao was promoted to a higher position and appointed as the governor of Yangzhou, allowing him to continue to fight against Yuan Shu.]

[Seeing that the fight against the Yangzhou governor appointed by the emperor was getting more and more fierce. ]

[Yuan Shu could no longer sit still.]

[The only option is to use Sun Ce who was deliberately ignored. 】

[Yuan Shu appointed Sun Ce as the commander of the army and general of the bandit-killing army, and asked him to help.]

[I didn't expect that Sun Ce would go into overlord mode as soon as he made a move! ]

【Hengjiang and Dangli were quickly captured. 】

[Then Sun Ce crossed the Yangtze River, captured Qu'a, and forced Liu Yao to flee to Yuzhang.]

[Sun Ce recruited soldiers in Qu'a and raised a team of 20,000 people in one go.]

[He also successively defeated Xu Gong, the governor of Wujun, and Wang Lang, the governor of Kuaiji.]

[The entire territory of Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River was ruled by Sun Ce.]

【And Sun Ce belonged to Yuan Shu. 】

[At this point, Yuan Shu had successfully occupied most of Yuzhou and Yangzhou, as well as the northern part of Jingzhou.]

[He stood out among the princes of the world and became the overlord of the south. 】

[However, although Yuan Shu's road to dominance was glorious, it also buried many hidden dangers. ]

[Friends, did you see it? ]

The sky curtain raised a question.

How could the audience not see that?

《Oh my god, Skeleton King! 》

"Liu Bei is still a loyal man~"

"Do you know why Yuan Shu ran away? He burned down the palace! He could be blamed at any time!"

"Yuan Shu's group is not good at fighting, and the most capable are the troops of Sun Jian and Sun Ce. How can this not be a big hidden danger?"

"So, it is natural for Yuan Shu to be wary of Sun Jian and Sun Ce."

"From this perspective, Yuan Shu's initial family background was quite impressive."

"It was mainly because I got the Nanyang County, a royal base, for free, and I was also extremely lucky."

"The population of the Nanyang Basin and the eastern Henan Plain was the largest in the world at that time."

"The location is perfect, no wonder it has grown so fast."

"If Yuan Shu doesn't mess around, relying on the group of tough guys in the Sun family and his own status as a third-generation official, it won't be a problem for him to establish a large-scale Eastern Wu."

"Yuan Shu's military strength at this time was greater than the total military strength at the Battle of Guandu!"

"Why did Sun Jian become Yuan Shu's younger brother?"

"They are not pure subordinates, but more accurately, they are a semi-vassal military group."

"Sun Jian needs Yuan Shu's reputation and capital, and Yuan Shu needs Sun Jian's fighting power."

"From this perspective, Yuan Shu's peak was one-third of the Southern Dynasty."

"You also said that you dare to claim the throne when you have barely one-third of the Southern Dynasty? The other affiliated forces are only allies, not subordinates at all."

And outside the sky.

Qin Dynasty.

After a brief analysis, Ying Zheng basically figured out most of the situation.

Then he said with some disdain:
“The struggle in troubled times is nothing more than a game on a chessboard.”

"This Yuan Shu has the title of "four generations of three officials", but he can't even figure out his own roots."

"Sun Jian and his son Sun Ce were his vanguards, but they didn't know how to build up close confidants. Instead, they broke their promise while serving as the governor of Lujiang. It's clear that they have no gratitude or loyalty."

"Yuan Shu knew Sun Ce's ability, but he didn't try to win him over early on. Instead, he ignored and suppressed him, which only increased resentment."

"Yuan Shu doesn't even have this much breadth of mind, yet he dares to call himself the hegemon?"

"What good would it do such a short-sighted person to gain control of Yangzhou?"

"It's just making wedding clothes for others."

"The princes at the end of the Han Dynasty were no more than this." (End of this chapter)
