Chapter 11 I think that Xu County is the most suitable
"Fengyi!"
"Fengyi!"
In the main hall of the Juancheng Yamen Office, Cao Cao was a little worried about Sun Ce, the sudden thorn in his side.
In the main hall, all the counselors were talking in low voices.
Cao Cao's eyes were scanning, and he just happened to see Xi Yu's brows raised slightly, as if he was in a trance.
Involuntarily, Cao Cao couldn't help but shouted twice at Xi Yu.
The sound was not loud, it seemed a bit like he was afraid of disturbing Xi Yu, but also a bit impatient.
At just the right moment, a gentle breeze passes by.
Xiyu gradually came back to his senses as Cao Cao shouted twice.
It's August, the wind is high and the air is crisp.
The main hall where the meeting was held was filled with all the princes, and the four white jade pillars were glowing, illuminating the entire main hall.
When the breeze blows by, it causes the gauze curtains on both sides to swing slightly.
Cao Cao's two shouts had already made everyone in the main hall gradually become quieter.
Everyone's eyes followed Cao Cao and all fell on Xi Yu.
"Brother, call me?"
Xiyu grinned lightly, his expression unhurried and unhurried.
Seeing this scene, Cao Cao looked a little resentful.
"What do you want from Fengyi?"
Cao Cao just thought that Xi Yu was in a daze just now, and couldn't help but asked curiously.
Cao Chun, who was standing next to him, laughed subconsciously: "I think Fengyi is thinking about a girl from some family!"
As soon as this voice came out, there were several bursts of laughter in the main hall.
Xi Yu raised his eyes and glanced at Cao Chun, who had spoken out. The latter couldn't help but paused.
The laughter in the main hall suddenly stopped.
"It's just that my brother just mentioned Sun Ce, and Yu couldn't help but have more thoughts!"
Xi Yu turned around and explained to Cao Cao.
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao first glared at Cao Chun, who had just spoken, and then quickly turned his attention back to Xi Yu.
"Oh, what are your thoughts on Fengyi?"
Cao Cao's curiosity was aroused, and he was worried about Sun Ce, a guy who suddenly appeared!
The thoughts that Xi Yu feels when he hears it now are also caused by Sun Ce.
Naturally, my curiosity became more intense.
"I'm thinking, now that the autumn harvest has passed, it's time for our army to move!"
Xi Yu's expression was indifferent, and the words that came out of his mouth made Cao Cao's eyes light up.
On the side, a group of counselors subconsciously looked at Xi Yu.
Just after the autumn harvest, Xi Yu’s words meant that he suggested that Cao Cao send troops!
Except for a group of counselors.
All the generals on the right pricked up their ears.
Send troops!
This is what they are most concerned about.
Since the capture of Xuzhou, the entire Yanzhou has advocated self-cultivation and self-cultivation. For more than a year, these generals have been feeling exhausted!
Except for Cao Ren who was guarding Xuzhou, among the generals who had been following Cao Cao, who was not thinking about leading troops to the expedition?
Now that Xi Yu brought up the idea of sending troops, the hearts of these people instantly became hot.
"Okay!"
Cao Cao subconsciously shouted "Hello". Seeing that Xi Yu didn't seem to have finished speaking, he quickly laughed and stretched out his hand.
"Be loyal and keep your word!"
Cao Cao straightened his figure and straightened his clothes along with his hands.
At this time, everyone in the main hall was watching Xi Yu.
The expressions of the counselors also became extremely serious, and the generals leaned forward one by one.
Just wait for Xi Yu to tell you where to hit, so that they can be the first to rush out and ask for help.
Xi Yu didn't hesitate too much. He stood up and walked towards the regional map hanging in the main hall.
"Now our army has occupied the two states of Yan and Xu!"
"This time the Emperor returns eastward, Yu has just been thinking, if we want to welcome the Emperor, where should we do it?"
Xi Yu asked with a smile.
As soon as he said this, the crowd subconsciously responded.
"Of course I am welcome to Juancheng!"
As soon as the voice came out, some people in the hall nodded in agreement.
Cao Cao also frowned.
He had only thought about pleasing the emperor before. As for where to place the emperor, he had never thought about it before.
Juancheng?
Not bad!
"Lord, I'm afraid Juancheng can't do it!"
After Xi Yu just raised the question, Xun Yu, who was on the left hand side of the main hall, immediately began to think about it.
When someone mentioned Juancheng, he subconsciously thought about it.
However, after much deliberation, Juancheng is not a place that will work after all.
"My lord, although Juancheng is good, it is not suitable for welcoming the emperor!"
As soon as Xun Yu spoke these words, Cao Cao also came to his senses.
Indeed, Juancheng is not a suitable place at all!
Although the situation in Yanzhou has been better than before in the past two years, the whole Juancheng is even more prosperous.
But Juancheng is too small after all.
To welcome the emperor respectfully, I lose a bit of confidence.
What's more, this is the place where he started. Will the emperor come easily? Wouldn't the princes who follow the emperor be afraid of him?
What’s more!
Yanzhou is adjacent to Yuan Shao, and although Juancheng is deeply rooted, Yuan Shao is still not something Cao Cao can compete with.
If we once broke up with Yuan Shao, wouldn't it be like putting the emperor in Yuan Shao's face?
At that time, could the emperor still be in his own hands safely?
In just a moment, the thoughts in Cao Cao's mind had already rejected Juancheng.
"Wen Ruo is right, Juancheng is not suitable for the emperor!"
After Cao Cao opened his mouth to deny it, he stopped mid-sentence.
Juancheng cannot cater to the emperor, so what place is suitable?
For a while, Cao Cao couldn't think of any good places.
He subconsciously looked towards the group of advisers, and they all followed suit to discuss a place suitable for the emperor.
"Old capital Luoyang?"
Someone suggested.
Cao Cao frowned subconsciously.
Luoyang, the old capital, was originally the capital of the Han Dynasty, so there was no problem in catering to the emperor.
However, Cao Cao still remembers the scenery of Luoyang.
After Dong Zhuo moved the capital, Luoyang was burned to the ground by Dong Zhuo.
Luoyang, the once prosperous imperial capital, still looks like the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty.
Today's Luoyang can only be called an abandoned city.
"My lord, you can march into Chang'an and welcome the emperor and Chang'an!"
Someone made a suggestion here, but as soon as the words came out, they were rejected by the people next to them.
Today's Chang'an is not only suffering from poor people's livelihood, but also experiencing a severe drought.
Furthermore, although Li Jue and Guo Si have now left Chang'an, that place is still the root of the two of them.
If you want to march into Chang'an, you can't bypass Li Jue and Guo Si!
"What do you think of Fengyi?"
When Cao Cao was hesitating, Xun Yu next to him laughed.
When he thought about who brought up this topic, his eyes naturally fell on the person who brought it up in the first place.
At this time, Fengyi was standing on the regional map and looking at it.
As soon as Xun Yu opened his mouth, Cao Cao seemed to have reacted.
Yes!
Fengyi mentioned this. Since he said he wanted to settle the emperor, he must have had some ideas in mind.
Instead of thinking about it yourself, it is better to listen to what Xi Yu has to say.
Everyone looked at Xi Yu.
Cao Cao also looked at the geographical map in front of him.
"The place where the emperor lives should be the imperial capital of a country. It is too narrow."
"You can't succeed in defeat, you can't succeed in being remote!"
"When it extends in all directions, it has the potential to overlook the world of Jiuzhou!"
Xiyu spoke calmly, his words neither urgent nor slow.
The people beside me listened attentively, but they were not anxious at all.
"The imperial capital Luoyang was like this at that time, and the western capital Chang'an was also like this!"
"Both of these are geographically advantageous places!"
"However, this time these two places do not occupy the time of day or the people!"
Xi Yu shook his head slightly and casually rejected Luoyang, the former imperial capital, and Chang'an, the western capital where the emperor has lived for several years.
In Luoyang, the old capital can naturally be rebuilt, and the population can naturally be restored.
But denying its fundamentals is just an excuse.
More importantly, Luoyang is the old capital. If the emperor returns to Luoyang, the power of the Han Dynasty will inevitably rise.
Furthermore, where Luoyang is, it is surrounded by princes on all sides.
This situation is not good for Cao Jun!
In order to cater to the emperor and Luoyang, Cao Cao will inevitably be hindered by all parties, and the development of Cao Cao's army will be different from the original plan.
As for Chang'an, it was beyond Cao Cao's reach.
The similarities and differences in form between Chang'an and Luoyang are naturally denied.
Both of them are now in ruins, and recovery itself will be extremely time-consuming.
Rather than choosing both, it is better to abandon both!
What's more, history has already given the answer, and Xi Yu only needs to follow the script and it will be easy.
"In this case, where does Fengyi think it is suitable to please the emperor?"
Cao Cao was confused, so he opened his mouth and asked.
As soon as he said this, Cao Chun next to him also shouted.
"Sir, don't be too pretentious. Just tell me where the place is suitable."
Xi Yu turned his head and looked at the regional map in front of him.
"Yuzhou!"
After he finished speaking, Xi Yu stretched out his finger and pointed at Yuzhou, where the regional map is located.
"Xu County!"
"This place is not far from the old capital Luoyang. I chose this place to welcome the emperor. I think the emperor and the Han courtiers had no intention of resisting!"
"Both, this place is not the foundation of our army. The emperor and his courtiers will not be afraid of my brother because of this!"
"Third, this place is the hinterland of the Central Plains, the terrain is open, and the imperial city built here can gather the royal aura!"
Xi Yu explained casually, paused for a while, and then spoke again.
"There are many outstanding people in this area. If we build a capital here, we can attract talents from all over the world to gather together!"
"The terrain of Xu County has its own advantages. Its land is open on all sides with rivers and fertile land."
"This place is bounded by the Yellow River in the north, Hulao in the west, and Jianghuai in the south. It is the most beautiful place in the world!"
Xi Yu said and paused here.
As he finished speaking, Cao Cao's eyes were already fixed on the location of Xu County on the regional map.
Just as Xi Yu said, with just one glance, Cao Cao could already see the advantages of Xu County.
"It's really as Fengyi said!"
“What a great place!”
Cao Cao spoke, having already confirmed everything Xi Yu just said.
But at this moment, Cao Chun, who was standing next to him, looked at Xu County twice and then said something casually.
"Brother, Xu County is not under our army now!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone seemed to have just come back to their senses.
It's true, no matter how well you say it, Xu County has an advantage, but this place is not their territory now.
"So, as I thought before, it's time for our army to move!"
Following Cao Chun's words, Xi Yu explained casually.
After saying this, everyone in the entire hall understood it instantly.
All Xi Yu said was that he was ready to march into Yuzhou.
"In this case, our army should take Yingchuan!"
Cao Cao then spoke, his tone loud and powerful, and his finger landed directly on the location of Yingchuan where the regional map is located.
After saying this, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile.
Last time, Sun Ce appeared, and he was holding his breath in his heart. This time, the army was pointing at Yuzhou.
If Sun Ce didn't recognize images, he would have to teach Sun Wentai a lesson!
……
In early September, Cao Jun commanded his troops to march southwest, aiming at Yuzhou.
At the same time.
Where Xinfeng is.
After the emperor returned from the east and set out on his journey, he arrived in Xinfeng in mid-August and temporarily stayed in camp to rest and recuperate.
It's night, inside Guo Si's camp.
"General, this time we escort the emperor back to Luoyang, it will not be of much benefit to the general!"
Guo Si's advisers gave advice.
After hearing this, Guo Si turned around subconsciously and asked, "What's the explanation?"
"General, if the emperor returns eastward, your majesty still needs to rely on the general, but if the emperor returns eastward, your majesty will no longer need to rely on the general!"
"Where will the general be then?"
After hearing this, Guo Bang's expression changed, and he immediately asked the counselor: "In this case, what should we do?"
"General, this stagnation of new prosperity is a good opportunity for the general!"
"If the general can welcome the emperor in Yi County, then why should he care about Li Jue, Zhang Ji and others!"
……
Inside the tent, Guo Bin was enlightened by the counselor's words.
In just a moment, Guo Si's heart became clear.
However, Guo Si was planning how to welcome the emperor into Xi County, but the soldiers outside the tent quietly left after hearing the news.
The next day, news spread like wildfire that Guo Si wanted to coerce the emperor into Xi County.
Li Jue, Zhang Ji and others were shocked and quickly wanted to ask Guo Si for questions.
The two armies surrounded Guo Si!
Under such circumstances, Guo Si already knew that his plan was leaked, so he had no choice but to abandon his army and flee for the time being!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The emperor was once again completely controlled by Li Jue!
After some discussion, Liu Xie wanted to continue his return eastward.
Later, Yang Feng, Dong Cheng and others escorted him eastward.
However, although Guo Si abandoned his army and left, his army did not withdraw.
It’s the day!
Wu Xi, a general under Guo Si, burned down the emperor's residence at night, intending to kidnap the emperor.
That night, the fire was shining everywhere, and Liu Xie was in the fire, physically and mentally shocked.
When the bodyguard Liu Xie fled, the sound of killing cries could be heard all around.
Liu Xie was simply not harmed.
The sound of killing echoed throughout the night.
When it was daylight the next day, the strong smell of blood all around made Liu Xie feel dizzy.
Wu Xi, the general of Guo Bang who wanted to kidnap Liu Xie, had been defeated by Yang Feng and others. The leader Wu Xi was beheaded by the formation.
This night made Liu Xie's heart tremble, and he could not sleep for several nights.
Everyone once again protected Liu Xiejie as he marched eastward.
Enter Huayin and rest again.
However, the previous turmoil was like a burning fuse.
The various armies that were originally assembled, within a short period of time, already had friction with each other.
Later general Yang Ding had a long-standing grudge against Ningji general Duan You, so he teamed up with Yang Feng, Dong Cheng and others to attack Duan You.
After that, the second army held a stalemate with Huayin for more than ten days.
The way back eastward was blocked.
Liu Xie began to feel a little tired.
Ever since he decided to return to the east, the fighting around him has never stopped.
Just after Guo Si's problem was solved, a new conflict appeared between the soldiers in front of them.
The armies faced each other and attacked, and each suffered damage.
After holding on for ten days, returning east seems to be far away.
In desperation, Liu Xie could only send envoys to the two camps again to persuade the two sides to stop fighting and make peace again!
With the advice from the ministers and monks, the two sides finally stopped fighting.
Liu Xie was able to return east again and set off!
However, Guo Si's previous attempt to rob the Emperor made Li Jue, Zhang Ji and others aware of the importance of the Emperor.
Li Jue, who had allowed Liu Xie to return to the East, soon felt remorseful. At that time, Guo Si happened to have withdrawn his army.
The two of them seemed to be in unison, and together with Zhang Ji, they started chasing towards Liu Xie's location.
In December, Li Jue and others caught up with Liu Xie in Hongnong, and the three armies surrounded him.
Yang Feng, Dong Cheng and other troops who guarded Liu Xie were severely defeated by Li Jue and others at the location of Dongjian.
In this battle, countless officers and soldiers died.
"Damn Li Jue, Guo Si!"
"These two people are so ambitious that they have allowed His Majesty to return eastward, and now they deliberately regret it. What should we do now?"
Yang Feng was a little helpless. Li Jue and others surrounded him with an army. They couldn't hold on for long now.
If we continue to fight, sooner or later we will be completely destroyed by Li Jue and others.
"Rather than pretending to make peace, this place is not far from Hedong. We can secretly send people to Hedong and summon the Baibo commander Li Le, Han Xian and others. In this way, the dilemma can be solved!"
Dong Cheng said in a deep voice, now that there is no way to confront Li Jue and others, there is only one way to negotiate peace.
But if peace is negotiated, Li Jue and others may not allow His Majesty to return eastward.
This time, we can only attract external forces.
On that day, Yang Feng and Dong Cheng pretended to make peace with Li Jue and others, but the latter had no intention of noticing.
The large army temporarily stopped in Hongnong.
After regaining control of Liu Xie, Li Jue, Guo Bang, Zhang Ji and others who had joined forces began to argue over the whereabouts of the emperor.
Three parties compete for the emperor.
However, the envoys from Yang Feng and others have already arrived in Hedong.
After hearing the emperor's edict, a few days later, Hedong Baibo Commander Li Le and others came with their troops.
Yang Feng and others immediately fell out with Li Jue and others.
The two armies began to attack from front to back, and Li Jue and others were defeated in a hurry.
In this battle, thousands of people were beheaded.
After repeated setbacks, Liu Xie resumed his march eastward.
However, the defeated Li Jue and others quickly organized their army, and the next day, they once again pursued Yang Feng and others.
The three armies were reasonable, even with the help of Li Le and others, but it was difficult to resist Li Jue, Guo Si and others. In this battle, Yang Feng and others were defeated.
At the end of December, Yang Feng and others supported Liu Xie and retreated to Shaanxi County, where they formed a camp and stood firm.
At this moment, there are less than a hundred guards around Liu Xie.
"Hahaha!"
"I, I!"
Returning east to Luoyang, stopping and turning all the way!
Seeing that the army that originally protected him had now withered to less than a hundred men, Liu Xie felt helpless for a while.
He is a majestic emperor, but now he is being chased like a dog.
Even though I just wanted to return east to Luoyang, I was still restrained from returning.
He wanted to kill Li Jue, Guo Si and others.
But Liu Xie knows that he can't do it now.
At that time, he was like a fish on the chopping board, and could only be slaughtered by others!
