Chapter 20 I Can't Donate My Heart(2/2)
Yes, because the system still exists in ordinary times, greed for a penny will eventually be attributed to the people's wealth and anointment, and fighting for power in ordinary times is just dog eating dog. With your kind of law, it is better for people with abundant wealth to be in power than to let those who just sit back and do nothing.
People like Chang Xiao; but what about troubled times? In troubled times, greed for money is just asking for more rewards and grabbing more seizures, but fighting for power will lead to rivers of blood!"
"So you are cleaner than me?" Guo Tu finally got angry.
"I don't want to talk about this." Xu You finally gasped. "I just want to ask you... We won't talk about the previous things, but Yuan Benchu did not fail you and me after all, and you and I are the same kind.
I can’t bear to abandon him, why can you so calmly cut off his flesh for your personal future without waiting for his death?”
After saying this, Xu You pursed his lips and stared at the other party.
Guo Tu was silent for a long time, but suddenly he looked at the other party and said calmly: "When we set up an ambush at the border bridge, who betrayed Lu Xiang and the 10,000 Yanzhou soldiers? I betrayed Yuan Chaqi, and I survived 30,000 soldiers; you didn't betray Yuan Che.
Riding, but killing ten thousand innocent people...Xu Ziyuan, you and I are the same kind, I also want to ask you, how can you bear it? "
Xu You felt dizzy for a moment, but he could only nod slowly, hold his forehead and walk away. From then on, he became taciturn and never argued with Guo Tu again.
However, the two of them were trapped in a gap in size, coupled with the fact that transportation was really inconvenient, and the summons took time, so they felt like they had lost track of time in the mountains... It was fine not to argue but to lose, and the arguments they had argued before were ridiculous.
In fact, as early as the beginning of April, Jushou took the initiative to meet with Gongsun Yue's envoy after he had conquered the surrounding branch cities. Juzong, who was accompanying the army, was overjoyed and went to the city in person to see his brother, but only brought back Yuan Shao's son Yuan Tan... Immediately the city gate was opened.
Kai, Ju Gong and himself committed suicide in the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion.
Gongsun Yue lamented, so he had no choice but to go south to Hanoi to persecute Zhang Yang.
At the same time, Cao Mengde, who had returned from Luoyang to meet the emperor, received a joint invitation from the Li family of Jiyin, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao brothers who had escaped from house arrest, and the famous scholar Bian Rang of Chen Liu. He led an army of 10,000 troops and headed north to Yanzhou in light equipment.
, almost without a fight, they took Chenliu, Jiyin, Shanyang, Rencheng, Dongping, and Yuzhou deep into the Lu State at the foot of Mount Tai, a total of six counties.
In the end, we will stop at Jishui, because in front of us is Cheng Zhongde's hometown of Dong'e, and Cangting, an important road in the middle of the Yellow River. This is equivalent to giving up Taishan County, Jibei Kingdom, and most of Dongjun to which Yanzhou belongs.
...In fact, this is the result of Cao Cao knowing Gongsun's bottom line and not overstepping the limit.
However, at this time, Gongsun had already gone south to Liaocheng... He had actually guessed that Cao Mengde would not miss such a good opportunity, and he also knew that he had indeed tried his best, and Lu Fan's invitation to go south was also aimed at Cao Cao.
But even so, when I heard that the other party was advancing at such a speed, and when I heard on the riverside that Yingchuan Xun had invited Cao Mengde to leave his home, and entered Yanzhou with the army to take charge of the general affairs of Yanzhou, his expression finally changed, and he couldn't help but speed up.
Heading south, directly to Jinan, ready to cut through the mess quickly and deal with some troublesome things here.
On April 29, Gongsun arrived in Jinan and easily took away Zhu Ling's military power in the camp in the north of the city.
On the second day of May, there was no time to receive Cao Cao's envoys Xia Houyuan and Mao Jie, so he personally went out of the city thirty miles east to pick up his uncle Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian scholar of the time who took the initiative to visit.
On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Gongsun and his son went to Lishuipei outside Guoli City in Jinan to take a midsummer bath to cure illnesses during the Dragon Boat Festival. They also distributed medicinal materials and performed sacrifices to comfort the entire army.
In the evening, they captured all the troops, rewarded the three armies, and held a banquet in the cool air of Lishuipei to entertain meritorious ministers, Cao Cao's envoys, the famous Confucian Zheng Xuan, as well as surrendered generals and soldiers.
I am the dividing line between taking a bath during the Dragon Boat Festival
"Zhu Ling and Tai Shi Ci sent 30,000 Liaodong troops out of the Bohai Sea to Donglai and transferred to Liao City. When Taizu was on his northern tour, they left Chang Shi Lu Fan to guard the general's office. Every time there was an order, Ci followed the old affairs.
However, Ling placed equal emphasis on the right general and the general on the guard. He was not ordered to accept the festival, and Fan Duo was trapped... In the summer, Shao died, Qingzhou Xiping, Taizu arrived in Jinan, and in the afternoon he rode alone with Emperor Ren into the Liaodong camp, but no one was seen.
When the generals beat drums and summoned the soldiers to the front, the soldiers were disobedient and the battle was in vain. Taizu stood on the platform, pointed his finger at the emperor and said, "I have nothing to do today, so I brought my son here.
