Chapter 493 The World's No. [-] Generals Contest

In the second year of Chuping, the year when the Dispute Alliance was disbanded, it was also the year when the hegemony of the feudal lords first emerged. In the first half of the year, hundreds of battles broke out throughout the Han Dynasty.

Only large-scale battles include the battle between the two Yuans in Yuzhou, the battle between Yuan and Han in Jizhou, the battle between Yuan and Gongsun in Jizhou, the rise of the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou, Cao Cao's fight against Dongjun Heishan, the battle between Sun Liu and Jingzhou, the battle between Liu and Dong Dongdong, and Xianbei's invasion of Bingzhou , There are countless unknown small battles.

During the autumn harvest season, the princes tacitly stopped their weapons and stepped up preparations for food and grass to deal with the upcoming or outbreak of the enemy's winter offensive.

When the whole Han Dynasty was in chaos, Bingzhou showed a different kind of vitality. Other princes were preparing for the winter offensive, but Liu Bei launched an academic debate competition and a generals competition in Bingzhou.

Anyone who wins the ranking in the academic debate competition held by Longshan Academy can either choose to teach in Longshan Academy, or choose to work or guard one side in Bingzhou.

For this reason, Liu Bei personally wrote a famous post, inviting Zheng Xuan in Beihai, the Confucius family in Qufu, Hu Zhao in Jizhou, the Ma family in Guanxi, the Xu family in Runan, and the Pang brothers in Jingzhou.

As the saying goes: there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts.

Liu Bei's powerful generals are like clouds, and the generals competition he launched can not only become the No. 1 in the world, because the judge of this competition is Wang Yue, who assassinated the leader of Xianbei Shanyu a while ago.

If the princes in the Confucian academic debate competition would still let people go, the princes in the military generals competition tried their best to block the news. Once the news spread, all potential military generals in the world would go to Liu Bei. Who else under their command could lead troops to fight.

Although the princes tried their best to block the news, Liu's shops were all over the world, and their blockade made the name of the world's number one general even louder. Many generals who were brave and brave and frustrated went to Bingzhou together. The princes had no choice but to follow Liu Bei's example. , In the end, first compete in the county and then send representatives to Bingzhou to participate in the competition for the number one general in the world held by Liu Bei.

When rumors about the number one general in the world were raging, Yuan Shao suddenly sent general Cui Juye with [-] troops out of Hejian County in November, entered Guangyang County in Youzhou, and encircled Anci County.

Originally, in history, Cui Juye sent troops to surround Gu'an, and because of this, An was in Zhuo County. For a while, Yuan Shao didn't want to fall out with the Lucheng army, so he sent troops directly to Anci, Guangyang.

Gongsun Zan fled back to Youzhou in embarrassment due to the defeat of Jieqiao. Liu Yu feared that Xianbei would go south, Yuan Shao would go north, or Tai Shici would invade Guangyang with his ambitions after he became big.

As soon as Gongsun Zan arrived in Ji County, the gentry of Youzhou in Guangyang sent troops and money to buy armor for Gongsun Zan. One month later, Gongsun Zan returned to support more than [-] soldiers, including many county veterans who fought against the Yellow Turban and Xianbei.

Liu Yu saw that Gongsun Zan continued to grow bigger, coupled with Gongsun Zan's arrogant attitude and his desire to learn from Liu Bei and prepare to attack Xianbei for military training.

Not only did Liu Yu think of Qi Zhou's objection, he quickly recruited Qi Zhou to deal with it.

Qi Zhou has always opposed military generals to become bigger, whether it is Liu Bei or Gongsun Zan, in his eyes, they are all the same, so he blindly opposes them, and Xu You promised: If Liu Yu merges with Yuan Shao, Liu Yu will be the leader of Hebei, and he will also be the leader of Hebei. Become a shepherd.

The county magistrate who destroyed the family, the prefect who destroyed the family, these words are not just kidding, the prefect of a county in troubled times is the earth emperor with a radius of thousands of miles.

Xu You's suggestion is very good. Liu Yu may become the next Guangwu Emperor, and he may also be crowned the throne of the Three Dukes. No one can resist the temptation to take power in a country.

"Duke Ming, Gongsun Bogui is in serious trouble now, I'm afraid we can only get rid of it with Yuan Benchu's hands."

Qi Zhou naturally understood why Liu Yu asked him to come, so he said it bluntly.

Qi Zhou's mind and Liu Yu can also guess a thing or two, but he was originally from the Han clan, and now that the royal family is in trouble, how can he add insult to injury?Besides, he is not aspiring to the throne, even if he thinks about it, he is sorry for the kindness of the first emperor.

Although Gongsun Zan was disobedient, he was indeed a good general. Without Gongsun Zan, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun would not have been defeated, and the Eastern Xianbei and Central Xianbei would not have obeyed his orders meekly.

It's a pity that Liu Bei served as governor of Bingzhou, and Tai Shici also went to Jizhou. Otherwise, Liu Yu would not have to use Gongsun Zan. Since he was not the only one, Gongsun Zan would not be so arrogant.

Liu Yu hesitated and said: "I heard that Cui Juye's military discipline is not good, and blood flowed like a river in Anci?"

Qi Zhou naturally understood that Liu Yu's mentality was offended again, and said: "My lord, how can anyone survive in a war? Gongsun Bogui is not dead, and sooner or later he will attack Jizhou again. Ben Chugong has no choice but to preemptively strike. However, once Gongsun Bogui After the war, what excuse does he have to enter Youzhou, the fourth and third generations of the Yuan family, how can they not worry about the mouth of the world?"

Liu Yu stroked his beard and said, "Does Bogui have to die?"

Qi Zhou nodded: "My lord, you have also seen that as long as Bogui survives, even if he returns to Youzhou alone, he can pull up an army of tens of thousands at any time. Doesn't what happened before him explain everything? Besides, there is still a restlessness Liu Xuande? If Liu Xuande hadn’t used Gongsun Zan to consume Yuan Benchu’s power, how could he have worked so hard to support Gongsun Bogui? Hmph! Why are there academic debate contests and military generals competitions? .”

Qi Zhou's words are right on point, and Liu Yu is also a little uncomfortable about this. If Liu Bei doesn't help Gongsun Zan so much, Liu Yu might be able to tolerate Gongsun Zan for a while, but Liu Bei's strong support makes people suspicious Liu Bei's intention.

After all, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao were both wounded, which would help him unify the two prefectures of Youji, not to mention Liu Beihu in Bingzhou?The desire to be Guangwu is clearly revealed.

Liu Yu sighed and said, "For the current plan, this is the only way to go."

Liu Yu defaulted to Cui Juye's attack on Anci. Once Cui Juye attacked Guangyang City, the Guangyang gentry suffered more than a little damage. They had no choice but to beg Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan was under pressure, and besides, he wanted to fight Yuan Shao again, not to mention that Yuan Shao was just another general, and immediately ordered [-] cavalry to support Anci County.

The battle between Yuan and Gongsun resumed, and the world was moved by it.

In order to prevent their generals and rangers from going to Bingzhou, Tian Kai and Kong Rong deliberately recruited generals to attack Qingzhou Yellow Turban.

The Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou recovered and were driven to Yanzhou.

Liu Dai, governor of Yanzhou, ordered martial law throughout the prefecture, and Cao Cao, the prefect of Dongjun, even recruited troops wantonly, dealing the most violent blow to the Black Mountain bandits.

Yuan Shu also used the banner of Liu Bei's allies to recruit the passing rangers to follow the field generals. Liu Yan even sent Zhang Lu to defeat Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong, and block the passage out of Sichuan.

Dong Zhuo failed to make it to this autumn harvest, and the hungry people rose up. Dong Zhuo quickly dispatched troops to suppress them.

The originally bustling competition for the number one military general in the world turned out to be anticlimactic, and in the end it only became a battle between generals under Liu Bei's command. Of course, there were still some surprises. The young Gan Ning, Fu Gan, Xu Shu and a few young generals, many ordinary rangers, were all defeated. Xi Zhi just recruited.

Huang Zhong won the title of the number one general with ease.
