The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 206
"My lord, it's better not to go." Chen Gong suggested.

"My lord should go." Xi Zhicai suggested the opposite.

Li Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect that the two counselors around him had different opinions, which made it difficult for him to make a choice. "Why do you have different opinions? Tell me the reason."

Chen Gong took the lead and said: "In my opinion, this is obviously Dong Cheng's conspiracy. If the four princes go together, it will definitely cause a lot of competition. My lord will join hands with Sun Ce to attack Liu Biao in the future, so there should be no troops. It is right to choose to recuperate and recharge your energy. If you really go, you will inevitably suffer losses, and besides the princes of all parties, you have to deal with Li Jue and Guo Si and others. It is really a thankless job. Please think twice .”

"Gongtai's words are wrong. In my opinion, Liu Biao will not go there. Although he is a member of the Han family, he is also a person who does not like to take care of things. He did not participate in the princes' meeting to crusade against Dong Zhuo and Liu Biao, so this time before Only the lord, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao should be the ones going, this means one less competitor." Xi Zhicai also had his own opinion.

Li Yuan knew that what Xi Zhicai said was also possible. Liu Biao was indeed a very nosy person, and in "history", Ju Shou once persuaded Yuan Shao to bring Emperor Xian to Hebei, but Guo Tu objected, so the matter did not succeed. Therefore, this It is also very likely that Yuan Shao, the king of Qin once, will not go.

Chen Gong retorted: "Although what the military adviser said is reasonable, it is not easy to deal with even without Liu Biao and the troops of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. Instead of striving for the useless meritorious service of the king, it is better to speed up the recruitment of troops. To train soldiers, the most important thing for the lord is to expand the army and prepare for attacking Jingzhou."

"Gongtai misunderstood me. My lord went to King Qin to compete for the merits of King Qin, not the merits of King Qin, but to welcome the emperor to Xuzhou."

"Welcome to Xuzhou, what's the meaning of the military adviser?" Chen Gong didn't understand the effect of welcoming Emperor Xian to Xuzhou.

"Although the Han Dynasty is in decline, Emperor Xian is still the orthodox emperor. At least all the people in the world believe that he is the supreme existence. If the lord can welcome the emperor to Xiapi, then he can use the name of the emperor to appoint hundreds of officials and truly control Military and political power, conquer the princes of the four directions." Xi Zhicai is concise and to the point.

Li Yuan was really convinced by Xi Zhicai. The reason why he knew that "the Emperor is taking the emperor to order the princes" was because he had read history books from later generations. However, Xi Zhicai came up with his own wisdom. "History of the Three Kingdoms" only three people thought of this strategy, one is Jushou, a counselor under Yuan Shu, one is Cao Cao, and the other is Jia Xu. He is a top counselor, and Chen Gong is still a little bit worse than him.

Jia Xu thought of this strategy a few years ago, when he worked for Li Jue, but Li Jue didn't implement it well because of his limited ability. Cao Cao was different. Cao Cao used Emperor Xian to pacify most of the princes. The gap with Cao Cao can be reflected from it.

"Zhicai wants to coerce the emperor to make the princes, this move is in line with my wishes." Li Yuan agrees with Xi Zhicai very much.

"Hahahaha, what the lord said is very true, that's what I mean." Although Xi Zhicai meant it this way, he was not yet bold enough to say it.

Chen Gong is a smart man, and he understood the truth as soon as he heard it, but he was still worried. If we don't come, our army can defeat Cao Cao and others, but how can we persuade the emperor to move to Xiapi?"

"Don't worry about Gongtai. Cao Cao has a good relationship with our army. My lord has helped him several times, and his biggest enemy is Yuan Shao. So even if he goes there this time, he will definitely join hands with us to deal with Yuan Shao and drive him away. The queen master can give Cao Cao the merits of King Qin, and then secretly meet with Emperor Xian and his uncle Dong Cheng, and persuade them to go to Xiapi on the grounds of threats from Li Jue and Guo Si. As long as Emperor Xian makes a decision, it is useless for Cao Cao to know. At that time, our army can escort Emperor Xian to Xiapi."

"Then what if Li Jue and Guo Si lead an army to chase after them?" Chen Gong knew that Li Jue and Guo Si were in Chang'an, and if they found out, they would definitely send troops to chase after them.

"My lord, you can transfer the troops of Xiaopei, Xiapi and Shouchun to Xu County in advance. Xu County is located in the east of Luoyang, very close to Luoyang. Although Li Jue and Guo Si have a lot of troops, they will definitely not have many pursuers. , the Lord's current strength is sufficient to deal with it, if he really dares to come, then I will let him come and go." Xi Zhicai only spent a while thinking of all the countermeasures, which can be described as full of tricks.

"I've heard for a long time that Xi Zhicai is very intelligent, clever and clever, and full of schemes. Today, I, Chen Gong, have seen it." Chen Gong really can't believe it. He thinks he is smart, but compared to Xi Zhicai, he is really not as good.

"Hahahaha, Liao praised the public platform." Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, without any embarrassment.

"Okay, since that's the case, we will do what Zhicai said." Li Yuan made up his mind to go to King Qin, and he asked his servants to inform Dong Cheng's confidants that he would go to King Qin, and asked him to go back and reply first.

The man was very happy to learn that Queen Li Yuanqin left Xiapi and returned to Luoyang that day.

The next day Li Yuan began to mobilize troops and condemn generals. He mobilized troops from Qiao, Runan, Xiaopei, Xiapi, and Shouchun to Xu County. Xu County is actually Xuchang in "historical" history, and now it is just a small county. , Cao Cao also started to develop Xu County after receiving Emperor Xian to Xu County, and finally became the famous Xuchang in history, and it was also the capital of Cao Wei.

Qiao dispatched 6000 troops, led by Huang Zhong; Runan dispatched [-] troops, led by Ji Ling; Xiaopei dispatched [-] troops, led by Liao Hua; Xiapi dispatched [-] troops, led by Li Tong and Tai Shici. Among them, [-] Flying Cavalry soldiers were led by Zhao Yun, and [-] Tiger Guard soldiers were led by Xu Zhu; Shouchun dispatched [-] troops, led by Hua Xiong, with a total of [-] soldiers from various walks.

Because Shouchun, Xiapi and Xiaopei are a little far away from Xu County, it was decided to let Hua Xiong, Li Tong, Tai Shici, Xu Zhu and Liao Hua lead troops to stay in Xu County as a support, while Li Yuan brought Huang Zhong and Ji The soldiers of Ling and Zhao Yun went to Luoyang. The soldiers and horses of these three routes totaled 8000 people. Because the flying cavalry army was cavalry, even going from Xiapi to Xu County was very fast.

This time Zhao Yun did not bring Lu Lingqi with him because Zhao Yun left and Lu Lingqi needed to help train recruits in Xiapi. Send hundreds of flying cavalry veterans to her.
