Chapter 534 Lu Bu Ben Yuan Shao

Xun Yu and Liu Bei entered Chang'an together, and for a while the Yingchuan gentry became the focus of heated discussions in Chang'an City, which proved Liu Bei's determination to rule the world with the Yingchuan system.

Liu Bei personally welcomed Xun Yu into his mansion, and Xun Yu invited Liu Bei to meet after a simple bath.

"Mr. Wen Ruo, why don't you take a break? There is still some time before the dinner."

Seeing that Xun Yu's hair was still wet, Liu Bei expressed concern.

Xun Yu said with a serious face: "My lord, the situation in Chang'an is more serious than I imagined. Now I should look for a breakthrough to break the deadlock instead of throwing a banquet to entertain someone."

Naturally, Liu Bei also knew that the deadlock in Chang'an was not so easy to break, otherwise he would not have transferred Xun Yu from Jinyang, and sighed: "Isn't someone ignorant? However, His Majesty disappeared, and a certain group of troops searched around Chang'an but couldn't find it, so they asked The guards in the palace don't know, hey! What can I do?"

Seeing Liu Bei's expression, Xun Yu didn't want to be fake, and knew that the emperor's disappearance had nothing to do with it. Besides, Liu Bei agreed with the strategy of coercing the emperor to make the princes, and there was no need to cause such a big trouble.

Xun Yu said: "My lord, the gentry's attitude towards us is completely different along the way. The Han family wants to take advantage of the opportunity, and most of the wealthy families say that the lord is a hypocritical person like Wang Mang."

"Hey!"

Although Liu Bei was prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but look dark when he heard that the reputation he had accumulated so hard was in vain. Why did he show weakness everywhere, and did not fight or grab it? It was not because he wanted to gain a good reputation among the nobles. Only by gaining a good reputation can he win the hearts of the people. Only by winning the hearts of the people can we win the world.

"Sir, since you see the problem, how can you teach me?"

Liu Bei could almost see his own dead end, being abandoned by the gentry, the inevitable end would be the same as Dong Zhuo and Wang Mang.

Seeing Liu Bei's expression, Xun Yu was even more sure that the emperor was not killed by him, and said: "My lord, this matter is not unsolvable. The emperor is dead, and the world has lost its master. The lord is also a descendant of the great ancestor, so it is not impossible to inherit the throne."

"No, no, sir, if a certain virtue is not enough, how dare you call yourself emperor?"

Liu Bei knows that Xun Yu and Xun You are both staunch loyalists, and exposing their ambitions to become emperor in front of them is not pushing them to Cao Cao's side.

"My lord, you don't need to be humble, but since your lord has no intention of claiming the title of emperor, then you should send someone to find your majesty with great fanfare. In this way, the reputation of killing the emperor will be lost, and at most it will be harmful to protect the emperor."

Xun Yu finished his exploration.

"Naturally, Yun Chang, Shu Zhi, and Ling Ming are hunting down the bandits while tracking down His Majesty's whereabouts."

Liu Bei quickly added.

Xun Yu nodded: "The name is correct, and the word is right. Next, the lord needs to use one thing to straighten out the relationship between the court and win over the nobles for the lord's use."

Liu Bei nodded: "I don't know what sir is going to use to straighten out the court relationship."

Xun Yu said: "During this journey, I not only saw the performance of the gentry, but also saw the common people displaced and hungry everywhere! My lord should open a storehouse to help the disaster."

"Open a warehouse for disaster relief?"

Liu Bei fell into deep thought. Bingzhou had just escaped from the famine, and this year’s food was used in several wars. It would be necessary to collect food and grass from Bingzhou again to relieve the disasters of the third auxiliary. Ask Liu Bei to order him to send troops to Hanoi to avenge Zhang Yang, and even Xu Rong has a letter.

Most of Hanoi is under the management of Zhang Yang and the Lucheng Army to plant ten stones of immortal grain seeds. After the autumn harvest, Liu Bei will surely have surplus food to help HN Yin. Liu Bei also wants to take HN Yin before winter. Hanoi will definitely not be able to fight, let alone HN Yin.

Xun Yu noticed Liu Bei's entanglements and said, "My lord, the Sanfu area is the foundation of Gaozu's career. Now Yuan Shao is in HB, Cao Cao is in the Central Plains, and Yuan Shu is in Jianghuai. If my lord doesn't manage Guanzhong, how can I compete with them in the world?"

"it is good."

Between participating in the Central Plains War in advance or Liji and Sanfu, Liu Bei finally decided to fight steadily and manage Sanfu well first.

Xun Yu said again: "My lord, although Dong Zhuo has ravaged Sanfu for several years, the princes of the court have not been idle for these few years. With the strong support of Wang Situ, the Sanfu area is no longer as desolate as it was before. As long as we survive this autumn harvest , the Lord completes the suppression of bandits in Sansuke, and the land of Sansuke will be self-sufficient, and will never hinder the Lord."

"hope so."

Liu Bei also came all the way from Hedong to Chang'an. Along the way, his bones were exposed in the wild, and there were ten rooms and nine empty spaces. Sanfu had to have ten years of work to return to the prosperity of the early Han Dynasty.

Liu Bei cleaned up for Xun Yu in the mansion that night.

On the second day, he concurrently assumed the post of captain of Sili, and Xun Yu was appointed captain of Sili, and at the same time started disaster relief work, just like in Bingzhou, using work for relief, using the only food and grass to win over the dilapidated Sanfu economy, For a while, the Sansuke area changed from ten rooms and nine empty spaces to green smoke.

At the beginning of disaster relief, the Yingchuan gentry started under the leadership of Zhong Yao, Du Xi, Han Yu and others. Thanks to the previous experience in Bingzhou, Xun Yu did it very smoothly. So far, he has also recruited some students from the Sanfu area, such as Wei Kang, Yang Fu, Zhang Ji and others mobilized.

Everything in the Sanfu area seems to have calmed down, except for sporadic bandit suppression activities, Li Jue and Guo Si fled to Longshang after layers of fighting, and the Qiang and Hu rebels also returned to Xiliang.

After a long and urgent march, Guan Yu finally arrived at Wuguan before Zhang Xun broke through Wuguan. Zhang Xun looked at the flag of the Lucheng Army flying above Wuguan, so he could only withdraw his troops with regret. Congratulations to Liu Bei for getting the three assistants, and secondly, talk to Liu Bei about forming an alliance.

The cessation of the Wuguan war made Lu Bu see no hope of returning to Chang'an, so he was dissatisfied with Yuan Shu. In addition, Yuan Yi was also defeated. Lu Bu felt that heroes were useless.

Lu Bu's Bingzhou Wolf Riders often killed in the Sanfu area, but they still did not change when they entered Nanyang. The Nanyang gentry put eye drops on Lu Bu in front of Yuan Shu several times, saying that Yuan Shu was about to attack Lu Bu.

Hearing the news, Lu Bu left Nanyang County overnight, crossed the Yellow River from HN County, and joined Yuan Shu's sworn enemy Yuan Shao.

There are two major power alliances in the world, one is dominated by Yuan Shao, the alliance of Yanzhou Cao Cao, Jingzhou Liu Biao, and Yangzhou Yuan Yi; the other is the alliance of Nanyang Yuan Shu, Youzhou Gongsun Zan, Xuzhou Tao Qian, Qingzhou Tian Kai, and Bingzhou Liu Bei. The alliance has conquests against each other, such as Yuan Shao against Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shu against Yuan Yi, and Cao Cao against Tao Qian.

It seems that the Yuan Shu Alliance is powerful, but in fact, apart from Liu Bei, the entire Yuan Shu Alliance has lost troops and generals in the past year, and its strength has been greatly reduced. On the contrary, the Yuan Shao Alliance has been steadily advancing, and its strength has gradually surpassed the Yuan Shu Alliance. Reliable, unlike the Yuan Shu Alliance, there are many conflicts within the alliance.

Lu Bu suddenly abandoned Yuan Shu and went to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was overjoyed that he lacked a general like Lu Bu under his command.

Unlike in history, Yuan Shao has Ju Yi and HB Siting Yizhu. Now Zhang Yun and Han Meng are under Liu Bei's command, and Gao Lan is nowhere to be found. Yuan Shao can only use Ju Yi to go to the camp first. Lu Bu's arrival is just right. Ju Yi can be restricted.
