Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 784: King Conferring Event 2
This means, I am afraid that everyone understands without explaining that Gongsun Xu not only refused to be king, but also his father, he also did not agree to be king.This is the second time that Liu Xie proposed to crown Gongsun Xu as king. The previous time, Gongsun Xu only politely refused, saying that he was just a courtier.

In addition, Gongsun Xu also euphemistically expressed that he recognized Liu Xie's status, and hoped that Liu Xie could bring stability and peace to the Han Dynasty and the world in the future. Therefore, he did not oppose Liu Xie's proclaiming emperor, nor did he oppose Cao Cao. Just cover the sky with one hand and do this.

But this time, Gongsun continued to be angry.Outsiders may not be able to see why Gongsun Xu is angry. This title seems to be a good thing, and Gongsun Xu has this capital and strength. If one of the princes in the world is qualified to be king or even emperor, That must be Gongsun Xu, Yuan Shu is far behind him.

In the past, maybe others didn't know the true strength of Gongsun Xu, but now, everyone understands that Gongsun Xu has been hiding too much of his ability.From the point of view that the Northern Xinjiang Army hastily counterattacked Xianbei and the Huns with nearly 60 cavalry in so many years, and finally successfully defeated the Huns, defeated and surrendered most of the Xianbei army, etc., Gongsun Xu’s troops are absolutely outstanding. It can suppress more than 60 prairie cavalry.

Now, Gongsun Xu has gained the Wanli Grassland, and at the same time there are so many Xianbei cavalry who have been recruited, so his strength must have risen to a higher level. In comparison, the tens of thousands of grassland cavalry Cao Cao recruited seems to be nothing , compared with Gongsun Xu, it is nothing more than a small witch.

But Gongsun Xu refused to become king, perhaps because Lu Zhi's judgment back then came true.Gongsun Xu, who became the great general of the dynasty at the age of twenty, is now without an official. It can be said that he has achieved the ultimate among ministers. Only the emperor is bigger than him in the world. If it is sealed, then you can only ignore the Liu family's ancestral precepts and become the king, or you can skip the link of being the king and proclaim yourself the emperor.

But Gongsun Xu had no intention of becoming king from the beginning to the end. Even though Liu Xie sent him the imperial decree respectfully, even though Cao Cao and other princes jointly hoped that Gongsun Xu would become king, Gongsun Xu still refused.Moreover, this time Gongsun Xu didn't just refuse. He was planning to go to the grassland to inspect, but after learning the news, he led eight thousand tigers and he was about to go south.

This explosive news spread very quickly. The Northern Border Army immediately had a large group of soldiers and horses to cooperate with Gongsun Xu in this operation. When the other princes got the news, most of them stopped and watched. They wanted to see if Gongsun Xu really wanted to do something. up.

When the news reached Yanzhou, Cao Cao was also a little panicked.The imperial decree for Gongsun to continue to be king was actually drawn up by him, and his intention was not really to make Gongsun continue to be king.There is nothing to say about Gongsun Xu's strength, everyone sees it, such an enemy is not easy to provoke, Cao Cao has been trying to weaken Gongsun Xu's strength, but Gongsun Xu is very experienced in dealing with people, and has never In the middle.

During the Grassland War, Cao Cao secretly united with other princes to attack Beijiang, but in the end the plan failed. Not only did Beijiang not weaken its strength, but instead gained thousands of miles of grassland, Xianbei and the remnants of the Huns fled Mobei and disappeared.In this case, Cao Cao knew that Gongsun Xu would not be able to shake Gongsun Xu if he was tough, so he decided to be yin.

However, it is not an easy matter to overshadow Gongsun Xu. Gongsun Xu himself is shrewd and intelligent, and there are so many wise men and counselors around him, and many of them can be said to be geniuses. Feng and so on, which one is not a wise man in the world, which one is not a generation of literati who look down on the world, in this case, if Gongsun Xu wants to be recruited, Cao Cao must work hard.

When Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he swore an oath of the White Horse League, and he could not be crowned king unless he had the surname Liu.That is to say, if anyone in other aristocratic families dares to break the king's mind, that is to risk the displeasure of the world, and everyone can punish him.Perhaps Liu Bang was quite selfish in doing so, but this purpose has been passed down, and everyone in the world knows about it. Whoever dares to be the first king will have to face the wrath of the people in the world.

Of course, there are always exceptions.For example, Yuan Shu, who became emperor directly, didn't have to provoke others, and became the public enemy of the world. Fortunately, everyone is still busy with their own affairs, otherwise they wouldn't be able to attack him together.

Yuan Shu's proclaiming the emperor has already embarked on a road of no return. If Gongsun Xu also becomes the king, it will undoubtedly announce his wolfish ambitions to the people of the world. Next, what he has to face is not only Cao Cao's conspiracy, but also the rest of the world. I am afraid that most of the princes will stand on the opposite side of him.

Furthermore, if Gongsun Xu accepted Liu Xie's enfeoffment, it would undoubtedly be a complete acknowledgment of Liu Xie's legitimacy, that is to say, Gongsun Xu must obey Liu Xie's orders.Yuan Shu claimed to be the emperor and deceived the emperor. As the king of Zhao, Gongsun Xu had the responsibility to clear up the emperor's rebellion. At that time, even if the other princes did not send troops, he, Gongsun Xu, had to send troops, and he had to fight Yuan Shu to the death It's up to the end, otherwise, how can he bear the position of King Zhao.

In addition, Cao Cao has another thought, that is, he wants to test how much strength Gongsun Xu still has now.In the Prairie War, the Northern Border Army did win the final victory, but the loss was definitely not small. As for how much, only Gongsun Xu knew.

Cao Cao wanted to know how many troops the Northern Border Army could mobilize at this time, and whether Gongsun Xu dared to raise troops at this time, Cao Cao was eager to know.If Gongsun Xu is weak at this time, then what Cao Cao will do next is not to attack Yuan Shu, but to unite all other princes to attack Gongsun Xu.

When the general of the court was furious, he ordered his army to break through Yanzhou. Except for the [-] tigers, the [-] frontier troops who were about to reach the Great Wall also turned around at this time, and the [-] frontier troops from Youzhou and the seven At this time, the Qianbaipao Army, led by Zhao Yun, was marching south to join Gongsun Xu.

The most elite [-] cavalry in the world are about to gather together, and I am afraid that more soldiers and horses will follow in the future, and their goal is Yanzhou, Cao Cao's territory. There is no doubt about Gongsun Xu's leadership ability Yes, whoever he wants to fight, will he still lose?As soon as the news came out, not only Cao Cao was taken aback, but the other princes were also frightened.

The tiger is bloodthirsty, the front is invincible, and the white robe is unstoppable.Gongsun Xu suddenly made such a big move, what did he want to do, want to fight Cao Cao to the death?Or is he trying to snatch Liu Xie back now?

No matter what others think now, anyway, Cao Cao is busy now, and he insisted on provoking Gongsun Xu, but now Gongsun Xu wants to lead the troops south to question the crime himself. This time, Cao Cao has gone too far.
