Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 439: The Assassin’s Biography
In Yecheng, Yuan Shao summoned Zhao Long, Liu Bei, and Tian Qi several princes to discuss the matter. These feudal lords were all feudal lords who were attached to Yuan Shao, and each had his own thoughts.
Yuan Shao, the fourth and third prince, also had ambitions to compete in the Central Plains.
As soon as Chutian came back, he launched a massive attack on Yuzhou, which caused Yuan Shao's concern. At the suggestion of military advisor Xu You, Yuan Shao summoned all the princes and subordinates to discuss the matter of attacking Yanzhou in the south.
In Xu You's opinion, this is the best time to attack Yanzhou.
Xu You is also a strategist with a vicious eye. He is still far from the top strategist, but he is enough for Yuan Shao.
At least now Xu You's actions have caused Chu Tian a lot of trouble.
Yuan Shao joins forces with Zhao Long, Liu Bei, and Tian Qi to go south, Yanzhou is threatened, and Chutian's offensive against Yuzhou will come to an abrupt end.
Yuan Shao agreed with Xu You's proposal, so he gathered all the forces of Jizhou and prepared to go south to attack Chutian with troops from Yuzhou and Jingzhou.
"The lord attacked Puyang, Zhao Long attacked Baima, Xuande and Tian Qi attacked Gaotang. The three troops crossed the river and marched side by side, so that Chu Zimou could not care for each other, and the situation would be like a broken bamboo. Within a year and a half, the Chu Zimou will surely fail!"
Xu You talked about the attack on Yanzhou at the banquet.
If Chu Tian was present, he would definitely have trouble sleeping and eating. Xu You's three-way strategic plan poses a great threat to Chutian. Yuan Shao went all the way, including Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Ju Yi, Hulu Mingyue, and Lanling King.
On the way to Zhao Long, there are Sui Dynasty commanders Yang Su, Han Chuhu, Shi Wansui, etc.
Liu Bei and Tian Qi all the way, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ashina Sheer, Feng Yi, Tian Dan, Sun Bin, etc.
The 300,000-strong army of Jizhou is heading south, and Chutian must be fully defended in order to hold it.
"What do the military advisors think?"
Liu Bei asked in a low voice the military advisor Chen Xi beside him.
Chen Xi replied: "As Xu You said, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attack Yanzhou. If you miss this opportunity, I am afraid there will be no chance to take Yanzhou again."
Liu Bei asked Chen Xi again: "Do we need to follow Yuan Benchu's deployment?"
At this time, Zhang Fei, who was sitting next to Liu Bei, couldn't hold back: "Big brother is still Youzhou Mu, and he is not much different from the Jizhou Mu, the leader of the Yuan alliance. Why do you need to obey his orders! What big brother wants to do, then do it!"
"The third brother cannot..."
Zhang Fei's two sentences immediately caught everyone's attention.
Yuan Shao's face was not so pretty.
Zhang Fei said impatiently: "If you want to fight, fight, Zhang Yide will accompany you, if you don't fight, you won't fight, I will go back to wash and sleep!"
Yuan Shao had seen Zhang Fei's ferocity on the battlefield of the National War, and he no longer dared to say that Zhang Fei was an ordinary foot archer: "Yide, don't be impatient, if you have no opinion, then we will send an army of 300,000 to Jizhou. Attack Yanzhou."
"The lord is not allowed."
Zhao Long did not agree with Yuan Shao's approach.
As the biggest force attached to Yuan Shao, Zhao Long has the strength to almost stand against Yuan Shao in court. He expresses his own opinions. Tian Feng, Ju Shou, even Shen Pei, Guo Tu and others who are close to him All looked at it.
Yuan Shao had just been confronted by Zhang Fei, but now Zhao Long is attacking again, holding back the anger that is about to erupt, pretending to be calm: "Why?"
Zhao Long replied: "The Bingzhou Shepherd Huma was defeated by us in the Youzhou War next time, and I felt unwilling. Once the 300,000-strong army of Jizhou goes south, he will definitely attack Jizhou. In this way, Jizhou will all be Bingzhou animal husbandry. All."
Xu You had already prepared: "I have ordered a letter to be repaired in the Bingzhou Muma, and stated the interests in the letter. He has promised us that we will not attack Jizhou, and our army can attack Yanzhou with confidence."
"Soldiers are tricky. In order to take Jizhou, Huma deliberately agrees to let us go south to attack Yanzhou. Once we gather all our troops south, we will be fooled."
"Huma must not know the principle that lips die and teeth are cold. What is the benefit of Chu Zimou's growth?"
"Huma's annexation of Jizhou will lead to the three states of Bingzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou. He will have the ability to compete with Chu Zimou. He will not miss this opportunity. The lord will go south with the strength of one state. Middle withered bones!"
Zhao Long and Xu You quarreled in front of everyone, and also involved Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao couldn't help being furious, pulled out his sword and pointed at Zhao Long: "I am the fourth prince of the Yuan family, what a dead bone in a tomb. Could it be that you bullied me and dared not kill you!?"
Zhao Long's face was pale.
Han Chuhu and Shi Wansui quickly got up, armed with weapons to protect Zhao Long.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou protected Yuan Shao.
Everyone present was disturbed by the sudden turn of events and discouraged them one after another.
Zhao Longgong shook the master, and before that, everyone had faintly felt that the conflict between the two sides would break out sooner or later. And now, it's on the verge of breaking out.
Yuan Shao already had the intention to kill Zhao Long, just like he killed Ju Yi in history.
However, Zhao Long, who knew the trend at the end of the Han Dynasty and had a group of generals at the same time, was not as easy to provoke as Ju Yi. He had the qualifications to challenge Yuan Shao.
Liu Bei wanted to stand up to persuade him to fight, but was held down by military adviser Chen Xi: "Lord, let's see how they solve this matter, maybe it's our chance."
Guan Yu stroked his long soft beard and said to Liu Bei in a low voice: "What the strategist said is very true. From the second brother's point of view, it is better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
Zhang Fei said: "Me too!"
Liu Bei did not get up after listening to the advice of several cronies.
Over there, the advisors from Jizhou had already gone up to dissuade the two who were fighting with each other, and Ju Shou hurried to smooth things out: "General Zhao Long, the lord is just being angry for a while, not intending to offend, please don't misunderstand, General."
The trial pair said to Yuan Shao, "Please take back the weapon. Weapons can be used against enemies, but not against friends?"
Yuan Shao realized that he was really impulsive, so he put away his weapons. But he did not let go of the air of the fourth and third princes, and took the initiative to show his softness to Zhao Long.
Zhao Long was disheartened: "I, Zhao Long, laid down the current territory for the master, and thought about it all for the master, but being treated like this is really unfair!"
After Zhao Long finished speaking, he threw his long sword on the ground and angrily led Han Jhanhu and Shi Wansui to leave.
Everyone present, except for Liu Bei and Tian Qi, who were on the sidelines, as well as other generals and advisors from Yuan Shao's camp, could not help but feel chills.
Judging from the reasons for the outbreak of this conflict, Yuan Shao's actions did hurt many generals and advisors.
Zhao Long was the biggest contributor to helping Yuan Shao win the Battle of Julu and the Battle of Youzhou, but he was pointed at by his master's sword. Then one day, when Yuan Shao ascends to a higher position, how will he deal with other heroes?
Even Xu You couldn't help but be astonished, he didn't know what to do.
Yuan Shao took back the sword, and he couldn't help regretting his actions.
The people who stayed at the banquet didn't want to swallow, so the banquet ended in a hurry.
Sun Bin, who has been observing the conflict, his eyes flashing, thoughtful.
"Master, is there something wrong?"
Tian Qi noticed that Sun Bin's demeanor was unusual, as if he had discovered something.
Sun Bin nodded and shook his head: "It's probably my illusion."
At night in Yecheng, another big event happened.
At night, an assassin attacked Zhao Long's house, Shi Wansui and Han Zhanhu killed several assassins in a row, but Zhao Long was stabbed!
Frightened, Zhao Long led people to set fire to the west gate of Yecheng, and fled back to Handan, the state of Zhao, which he ran.
This incident caused an uproar in Yecheng.
After Yuan Shao and Zhao Long had a dispute, Zhao Long was assassinated that night, almost killed!
The assassins killed on the spot were soldiers in Yuan Shao's army, and there was also a general, Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan!
Now all the advisors and generals of Yuan Shao's camp are restless.
All signs pointed to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao sent someone to attack Zhao Long and stabbed Zhao Long. Zhao Long was frightened and fled Yecheng overnight.
Because of this, Liu Bei and Tian Qi were deeply disturbed and suspected that Yuan Shao intended to eradicate the princes who depended on him, so they also left without saying goodbye and returned to the Bohai Sea and the Plain.
Yuan Shao's reputation was shattered.
"The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks; the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden..."
"The enemy's country is broken, and the counsellor is dead. Yuan Hao, did we see the wrong person?"
"I thought that Yuan Benchu was the fourth emperor of the third generation, but he would pay his revenge and kill the hero. Although Zhao Longgong was the master of high shock... but if he was killed that night, the end would be too bleak."
"Perhaps Yuan Benchu is just a false name."
"Where should we go?"
Tian Feng and Ju Shou have a conversation.
As things happened in Jizhou, they had no time to think about how to attack Yanzhou.
Not only Tian Feng and Ju Shou lost their confidence, even Xu You, Shen Pei, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Zhang He, Zhu Ling and others were shaken, and even more deadly, Hulu Mingyue and Lanling King turned to Yuan Shao The loyalty of generals is declining.
In Handan City, Zhao Long fled back to the territory he controlled, and a doctor immediately healed him.
The soldiers in Handan heard that Yuan Shao pointed his sword at Zhao Long at the banquet and sent assassins to assassinate Zhao Long.
Tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded the lord's mansion. They were not dissatisfied with Zhao Long, but Yuan Shao and asked Zhao Long to replace Yuan Shao!
This is the same as the Mutiny of Chen Qiao and the addition of Huangpao!
"Let me go in and persuade the lord."
Yang Su, the first commander-in-chief and first counselor under Zhao Long, came to visit him, and all the soldiers in Handan made way for Yang Su.
"The lord is willing to be injured for the great cause, and the last will admire it."
Yang Su has an appreciation for Zhao Long.
"This sword almost cost me my life, and I deserve to be one of the four major assassins in the Warring States Period. Now I have already launched an army to attack Yuan Shao in name."
Zhao Long's terrified eyes disappeared, replaced by sharp eyes.
Yang Su said: "Yuan Shao's further explanation of what people want, is of no use. Liu Bei and Tian Qi leave without saying goodbye, and it makes the people of Jizhou dissociate from Yuan Shao, and the time is ripe. In a month or so, Jizhou can change hands."
"Don't take it lightly. Liu Bei and Tian Qi have no excuse to intervene in the dispute between me and Yuan Shao. Before they find an excuse, we must break down the strong city of Ye as soon as possible. There is also Huma in Bingzhou, who can send troops very fast. Quick, it must be before he can react... Fortunately, I have already made arrangements. Although Huma has Li Mu and Lian Po, he is not resourceful enough to be a concern."
"After replacing Yuan Shao, what should I do with him?"
"House arrest is enough to show my tolerance."
"Master is brilliant."
"I still need you to go south to fight for the Central Plains for me. If I didn't want to replace Yuan Shao as soon as possible while Chu Zimou couldn't intervene in Hebei, I would definitely go south to attack Yanzhou. This time, Chu Zimou was cheaper. "
The next day, surrounded by soldiers from Handan, the injured Zhao Long announced Yuan Shao's crime, accusing Yuan Shao of attacking the Luoyang Imperial Palace, forcing back Jizhou Mu Han Fu with unknown cause of death, and assassinating a hero. Defeat Yuan Shao!
The 50,000-strong army quickly marched toward Yecheng, and the whole way was like a broken bamboo!
Zhao Long stood on the moral high ground, and Yuan Shao, who was arrogant, seemed helpless. The army he dispatched encountered Zhao Long's righteous division and surrendered without a fight. The generals Ju Yi and Zhang He thought that they might have The day he was killed because of his high power, he directly voted for Zhao Long.
Zhao Long's army rapidly expanded from 50,000 to 100,000 or 150,000, and the army is approaching Yecheng!
Liu Bei heard that Zhao Long had raised an army to replace Yuan Shao. This was his chance, but Liu Bei could not intervene.
Zhao Long is now the righteous side in the eyes of everyone in Jizhou. If Liu Bei supports Yuan Shao, his reputation will plummet. Supporting Zhao Long is just the icing on the cake, and the benefits to Liu Bei are limited.
When Chen Xi heard about this, he could only sigh: "I didn't expect Yuan Shao to make such a foolish move."
He knew the consequences of the assassination of a prestigious celebrity.
In history, Cao Cao killed Bian Rang, causing Chen Gong and a group of Yanzhou aristocratic families to betray and almost homeless.
Now Zhao Long has been a celebrity in Jizhou because he has been operating in Jizhou for a few years, making friends with Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Shen Pei, etc., and has countless military achievements.
Yuan Shao was only able to draw his sword at the banquet, but he actually sent someone to assassinate Zhao Long~IndoMTL.com~ The commander was his nephew Gaogan.
Yuan Shao could no longer defend himself.
"Master, Zhao Long wants to replace Yuan Shao, what should we do?"
Liu Bei hesitated.
Help Yuan Shao, fall into injustice, help Zhao Long, and become Zhao Long's vassal. Destroying Zhao Long and Yuan Shao at the same time will not only be inhumane and injustice, but also may not be able to defeat Zhao Long who has already annexed many Yuan Shao's followers.
It can be said that the situation is too favorable for Zhao Long. Benevolence and righteousness became the biggest obstacle to Liu Bei's choice.
"Difficult..."
Chen Xi also had no choice.
Now that Liu Bei is gone, he can't recruit Yuan Shao's followers.
Under Yuan Shao in Jizhou, the most influential person is Zhao Long. Zhao Long has been active in Yuan Shao's forces for a few years, while Liu Bei is only a vassal who only joined Yuan Shao not long ago. The interpersonal relationship has not been established, and not many people are convinced. .
Pingyuan, the **** Sun Bin learned that Zhao Long rebelled against Yuan Shao and shook his head when he thought that the illusion of that day had come true.
Even if it were possible, he could not produce evidence.
Moreover, Sun Bin also knew that if Tian Qi ended up, it would be a thankless effort.
The only people who have the ability to intervene in the dispute in Jizhou are Huma in Bingzhou and Chutian in Yanzhou.
"Move your troops and horses immediately to avenge Youzhou!"
When Huma learned that Zhao Long had sent all the troops of Handan to attack Yuan Shao, he had a premonition that it was time to annex Jizhou.
Judging by the strength of Ye City, Huma judged that Zhao Long did not have a few months to capture it.
Li Mu, Lian Po, Zhou Dewei, and Zhao Kuo all assembled 200,000 troops and marched toward Jizhou!
