Lü Bu of the God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 569 Conspiracy to Capture Hebei

"Does the prince really want to share the hard-won rights with others?" After learning that Lv Bu had decided to regent with the other nine princes, Cheng Yu found Lv Bu and asked directly.

"Since I said so, I will definitely give up some rights, but you can rest assured that although others can participate in politics with me, there is only one regent in the world." Seeing Cheng Yu's anxious appearance, Lv Bu just smiled and continued.

"I don't know what the other eight kings mentioned by the Prime Minister?" Compared with Cheng Yu, Xun Yu beside him is much more stable. He only heard him open his mouth at this time, but he asked the key point.

"If you don't say it, I'm also going to tell you that my plan is to crown the princes who have galloped in this land during this period as king in recognition of their contributions to our Han. For those who have died, their honor will be inherited by their descendants. These eight kings are: Gongsun Zan, the king of Beiping, Yuan Shao, the king of Xindu, Ma Teng, the king of Xiliang, Zhang Lu, the king of Hanzhong, Liu Zhang, the king of Chengdu, Liu Biao, the king of Xiangyang, Sun Jian, the king of Wu, Tian Kai, the king of Linzi, and Kong Rong, the king of Beihai. I don't know what everyone thinks?" In Lv Bu's arrangement, the princes who have made contributions to the Han Dynasty since the Yellow Turban Rebellion are basically included. Although many of them have died, the deeds in front of them are widely spread and praised by people. Therefore, Lv Bu did this, and his use to buy people's hearts is self-evident. However, Lv Bu's use is obviously not only this, because in Lv Bu's arrangement, there are not only many princes with a good reputation, but even all the important princes in the land of the Han Dynasty today, which is a little intriguing.

"Yes, the prince's move is really smart. The prince named Yuan Shao, Ma Teng, Sun Jian and others as king, which can not only correct their names, but also have the effect of buying people's hearts. It is indeed conducive to improving the current situation of the Han Dynasty." After a little meditation, Xun Yu already felt the taste and knew the meaning of Lv Bu doing this. At least, it can be seen that the purpose of Lv Bu's canonization of Ma Teng as the King of Xiliang is very clear, which can not only improve the not-good relationship between Lv Bu and Ma Chao, but also more conducive to the relationship between Lv Bu and Ma Yunlu.

"I can also see some of the meanings of the prince. Yuan Shao died. Yuan Shao's two sons are fighting in order to inherit Yuan Shao's family business. Now that with the name of the king of Xindu, I believe that they will definitely add a fire to the two. As long as they continue to consume like this for less than a few years, Hebei will become the prince. Dependencies." At this time, Cheng Yu also saw some doorways and said.

"You just said part of it. To think about it, the reason why the web page named these people as kings has a deeper meaning." After knowledge, Guo Jia, who was beside him, opened his mouth to speak. Everyone was stunned when Guo Jia said this, and they didn't understand what deeper intention Lv Bu had.

"Oh, what else do you mean by talking about it?" Lv Bu was also interested in Guo Jia's words and asked.

"In the past, the princes took the emperor to order the princes. What they said was unpleasant was to rely on the power of the emperor in order to strengthen himself. However, now the prince has completely deprived the imperial power, and the power of the emperor has been reduced to a low point. It is impossible to command the world with the power of the emperor again. For today's plan, you can only think about it differently. Method, now that the prince makes these people king with different surnames, he can follow the ancient motto and invite them to the capital. If they obey, they will be caged birds since then. After receiving our constraints, we can completely annex his power without a soldier and a soldier. If he does not want to obey, we have a reason to send troops, so First of all, Zhang Kechi, everything is under control. Guo Jia's words are endless, but in the eyes of everyone, it has unfolded a magnificent picture of unifying the world, which is fascinating.

"Congratulations, prince, in this way, the prince will unify the world, and the day is just around the corner." At this time, Cheng Yu was the first to react and turned to Lv Bu to congratulate him.

"Ha ha, haven't we started this road to unifying the world a long time ago? Now it's just closer to this goal. Where do you think our road to unifying the world is better to start? For Guo Jia's words, Lv Bu just smiled. In fact, Lv Bu had a desire to unify the world, but it was not easy to unify the world, and he could only take it step by step.

"I think that if we want to unify the world, we should first take down Hebei. Hebei is a heavy land, and the people are rich and the country is strong. It has been a place for soldiers since ancient times. What's more, although our soldiers have begun to train in Yangzhou in the early years, the strength of the water army has never been popular. At this time, there is no certainty of winning when going south, it is better to take Hebei first. , uproot the Yuan family, and then cooperate with the army to go south, and you can calm the world in one fell swoop. Seeing that Lv Bu asked about calming the world, Cheng Yu first said.

"Sun Yu, you can also talk about it." Seeing that Xun Yu's clothes next to him seemed thoughtful, Lv Bu knew what Xun Yu had thought of, so he asked.

"Your Majesty, I don't object to taking Hebei first, but I feel that one person must solve it first. Otherwise, it will inevitably bring a lot of trouble to our southern expedition in the future." Xun Yu frowned and didn't say anything.

"Are you talking about Liu Bei?" Hearing Xun Yu's words, Lv Bu naturally remembered a person who came. This person is none other than Liu Bei. The days of contact between Lv Bu and Liu Bei are not small. It takes more than a day or two to kill Liu Bei, but I don't know whether Liu Bei is lucky or Liu Bei's life should not be given up. Lv Bu has never been able to get what he wanted.

"It is this person who is very difficult to deal with the help of Yu and Zhang Fei. Now there is Zhao Yun, a good general. If he can get the guidance of an outstanding military division, he will definitely become a future trouble for our army. And I heard that Xiahou Dun has gone to Jingzhou now. If he helps Liu Bei in the future, it will be a greater threat to our army. It turned out that Xun Yu knew that Liu Bei's character was by no means a thing in the pool. As long as he was given the right time, he could grow to an unimaginable extent. For so many years, Liu Bei gradually grew up from an unknown pawn. More importantly, Liu Bei was once wanted by Tao Qian to play in Xuzhou. In this way, it will be a great obstacle for Lv Bu's future plan for the Southern Expedition.

"Guo Jia, what do you think?" For Xun Yu's doubts, Lv Bu pondered for a while and still felt that there was no good way to solve it, so he turned to Guo Jia beside him and asked.

"Ha ha, in fact, why does the prince care too much about Liu Bei? Hasn't Liu Bei been so suppressed by the prince for so many years? Even if Liu Bei's power will increase, these are not expected by the prince. What's more, the prince has just sealed the princes of the world, but he only missed Liu Bei. I think the prince has a plan for Liu Bei's affairs. Guo Jia did not answer Lv Bu's question directly, but said some comforting words.

"Yes, the reason why Liu Bei can be today is actually similar to me. I took the emperor to order the princes. Liu Bei relied on his uncle's reputation and cheated around, which attracted many talents who had fantasies about the Liu Dynasty. If we take action against Liu Bei at this time, it will definitely make Liu Biao in Jingzhou have a different mind and feel that we need to deal with him. This is likely to make Liu Bei pay great attention to and have greater power in Jingzhou, and is likely to help Liu Bei win Jingzhou. So for the time being, let's put this matter on one side. Let's solve the matter of Hebei first, and then go back to talk about the Southern Expedition. However, Zhang Liao can't let him be idle. He told Zhang Liao to send an envoy to Zhang Lu in Hanzhong. He is a priest of the Wudou Rice Religion. I have been the king with a different surname for him, and it should always be him to me. It's time to show loyalty." Guo Jia's words reminded Lv Bu that although Liu Bei has great potential, he must not have the weather yet. There is no need to fight with Liu Bei. More importantly, there is no advantage in fighting with Liu Bei. There is only one remote Xinye in Liu Bei's hand. Even if Lv Bu's army drives Liu Bei out of Xinye, others also It will be said that Lv Bu is not victorious, and although Liu Bei is defeated, if Lv Bu is defeated in the battle with Liu Bei, it will complete Liu Bei's prestige. It is really not worth the loss, and fighting with the Yuan family in Hebei is different. The Yuan family has reached the end of the road. As long as Lv Bu adds more strength, he can get Youzhou. The other half of the land in Qingzhou and Jizhou has a rich income. In contrast, beating Liu Bei is eating a bone, but attacking the Yuan family is eating meat.

"Let's talk about how we can take action against Hebei." Now that it has been decided to fight against Hebei, it is necessary to have a detailed plan. Only in this way can good results be achieved. As the saying goes: "Lion fights and rabbits also use all their strength." That's the reason.

"Your Majesty, I had some friendship with Tian Kai of Qingzhou in the next year. I am willing to go to fight against Tian Kai and ask him to surrender in Qingzhou. I don't know if the prince is willing." As soon as Lv Bu said his words, a man came out of the crowd and said to Lv Bu. Lv Bu fixed his eyes to see that this person was none other than anyone else. It was Tian Feng who was rescued from the dungeon of Ye City after Lv Bu captured it.

It turned out that Tian Kai was the assassin of Qingzhou and was in charge of Qingzhou. Later, when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Qingzhou was tortured and unable to fight against the Yellow Turban. He had no choice but to ask the court for help. Therefore, the court at that time sent Cao Cao to send troops to Qingzhou to relieve the siege. In those years, Cao Cao led the army and Zhang Yan, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, fought in Puyang. Finally, he won the victory and adapted the Yellow Turban Army into the Qingzhou Army. It seemed that Cao Cao's power rose sharply, but Yuan Shao sent troops into Qingzhou first and occupied Qingzhou. At that time, Tian Feng played a big role in it. Now, as soon as Yuan Shao died, the two brothers of the Yuan family The younger brother couldn't compete with each other. At this time, Lv Bu had named Tian Kai as the king of Linzi. Tian Feng happened to take this gift to see Tian Kai. If Qingzhou could be successfully surrendered, he could avoid Qingzhou falling into the war and speed up Lv Bu's capture of Hebei.
