"Master Guo has a great plan."

All civil and military officials realized the effectiveness of this strategy, and nodded their heads in praise.

"You've mentioned Bingzhou, Yanzhou, and Youzhou, why didn't you mention Qingzhou?" Liu Xie mused for a while and said loudly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Qingzhou is a bit complicated, and I'm still thinking about it." Guo Jia said with a hippie smile.

"Qingzhou, the only state and county in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty that is not actually controlled by the princes, the state shepherd is Liu Qing, and he is also the clan of the Han family, but his life in Qingzhou is not good. After the defeat, the million Yellow Turban Army They are all hiding in the mountains and forests of Qingzhou, and there are enough troops, if Qingzhou is allowed to send troops, the Yellow Turban Army will inevitably take advantage of the fire to loot and bring chaos to Qingzhou, so you, Guo Jia, didn't say anything." Liu Xie said with a smile that was not a smile.

"Hey, Your Majesty is wise, I just made a suggestion, and the specific decision-making power is left to Your Majesty." Guo Jia laughed. In this court, he was the only one with a playful smile, looking like a prodigal son.

"I think this move can be used to give Qingzhou's million Yellow Turbans a chance." Jia Xu stood up and cupped his hands.

"I understand what you mean." Liu Xie glanced at Jia Xu and said thoughtfully.

"Qizou Your Majesty, I feel that Master Jia Xu's proposal can be considered."

At this time.

Chen Gong also stood up.

Then he said to the high seat respectfully: "During the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven that day, Your Majesty once said that the root of the Yellow Turban Uprising was the imperial government's miscalculation and the inaction of local officials. I think Your Majesty can give the million Yellow Turban soldiers in Qingzhou a chance to start anew." Give me back the opportunity of the common people.

"This time Yuan Shao's rebellion, I'm sure that Yuan Shao will also focus on the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou. If he can get a million Yellow Turban Army, his power will increase even more, and my court can also send people to the Yellow Turban Army. De, I would like to give them a chance to reform, as long as they send troops to attack Yuan Shao, the imperial court will not hold the Yellow Turban army accountable for their crimes in the future."

"Master Chen Gong is right."

"The minister seconded the proposal." Xun Yu stood up and cupped his hands.

"Millions of Yellow Turbans are my fellow citizens in the final analysis. Their rebellion was instigated by others. I feel that His Majesty can give them a chance. If they are willing to surrender to my court, His Majesty can forgive them. Otherwise, they are stubborn. , In the future, our imperial army will be overthrown, and we will wipe out all the grass and roots, leaving no one behind." Jia Xu pondered for a while, then stood up and said.

Jia Xu is not a benevolent counselor, on the contrary, he is a counselor who can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. This is how he was called a poisonous warrior by later generations.

But Jia Xu has far-sightedness, knowing that one day Qingzhou's million Yellow Turbans will be resolved after all, and he can take this opportunity to learn about the Yellow Turbans first.

"Since all the lords think that Qingzhou million yellow scarves can be given a chance, then if I don't agree, I will become a tyrant." Liu Xie looked around and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is wise." All civil and military officials said in unison.

"Designation." Liu Xiewei said.

"Let Liu Yu of Youzhou command Youzhou infantry to attack Jizhou from the south, order Liu Dai of Yanzhou to lead the army of Yanzhou to attack Jizhou from the west, and order Zhang Liao to lead the army of Bingzhou to attack Jizhou from the east." Liu Xiewei imitated the order.

"As for Qingzhou..." Liu Xie pondered for a while and asked, "Who is in charge of the million yellow scarves now?"

"Qizou Your Majesty, I have investigated the Yellow Turban Army. Since Zhang Jiao's three brothers died one after another, Zhang Jiao's two adopted sons, Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Yan, are currently leading the Yellow Turban Army." Guo Jia stood up and replied. .

......

Chapter 54

"Zhang Niujiao, Zhang Yan..." Liu Xie's eyes were contemplative, and then he promulgated the decree: "The decree is for these two people. Now the traitor Yuan Shao is rebellious, and the crime cannot be punished, and the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou was originally our Han people , my people, although the Yellow Turban Rebellion was a crime that cannot be punished, but it was not what they wanted, but was forced by the local government and the imperial court's inaction. Today, I will give all the Yellow Turban Army a chance to send troops to attack Yuan Shao, and wait for the rebellion. After the thieves were put to death, I will let go of all the past for the Yellow Turban Army, disarm and return to the fields, and the Yellow Turban Army will still be our big fellow people."

"If you are stubborn and insist on resisting me, one day my army will come in person, and the army will pass by without leaving a blade of grass."

This will.

There are two mixed meanings. First, submit to Liu Xie, and all past sins will be exonerated. Second, if you refuse to submit, you will be punished, and millions of yellow scarves will be slaughtered.

Moreover, Liu Xie's will did not have the intention of softly persuading surrender, but it completely revealed the hegemony that belonged to the emperor.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

The four decrees were issued, and all the civil and military officials shouted, with great admiration.

Yuan Shao wholeheartedly occupied Jizhou, in order that the prosperity of Jizhou would allow him to quickly develop his strength, but Jizhou has both good and bad, richness is good, but geographically it is surrounded by four other states and counties.

Moreover, Zhang Ying's risky report gave Yuan Shao no chance to integrate his forces. After the war started, Yuan Shao would face four armies of crusades. East, south, west, and north, each army's soldiers and horses would not be less than [-] .

Yuan Shao seems to be smart, but this time he has fallen into a low position. There is no need for Liu Xie to send troops personally. Yuan Shao.

"Qizou Your Majesty, I feel that I still need to take precautions." Jia Xu said again.

"Say." Liu Xie said seriously.

"The fourth and third princes of the Yuan family are the number one gentry family in my great Han family. There are countless long-term officials and countless scholars. The reason why he was able to control Jizhou so quickly is because of the old students and old officials accumulated by his Yuan family. It's not just Yuan Shao's family." Jia Xu looked at Liu Xie and said with some deep meaning.

"I understand."

"The head of the Yuan family was originally Yuan Kui. Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Yuan Kui voted for Dong to save his life. The Yuan family was divided into two branches, one was Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and the other was Yuan Shu in Huainan. This time Yuan Shao conspired against him. Involving the whole family, if the army is defeated, my court will definitely kill the Yuan family, and Yuan Shu, as a member of the Yuan family, will not be divorced from the relationship, so Master Jia means to guard against Yuan Shu in Huainan." Chen Gong immediately understood and said.

"Yuan Shu is very happy. He is not a strategist. But relying on the Yuan family's prestige, he is only the prefect of Shouchun, but he controls half of Yangzhou. This time Yuan Shao rebelled, and Yuan Shu will not sit still. The minister guessed that Yuan Shao had I have hooked up with Yuan Shu, as long as my court mobilizes troops, Yuan Shu will definitely lead an army to attack our Sizhou secretly." Jia Xu said with a very sure expression.

"The Yuan family is one family, four generations and three princes. These honors are all given by the Han Dynasty. Since they don't want it, then I will take it all back." Liu Xie's eyes revealed cruelty and coldness.

"Send my will."

"Let Jingzhou shepherd Liu Biao, Changsha prefect Sun Jian, Yuzhou shepherd Liu Lin, Xuzhou shepherd Tao Qian, mobilize the army of this prefecture to encircle and suppress Yuan Shu, and capture him alive. I will personally deal with the Yuan family in Luoyang." Liu Xie said coldly.

When the emperor ordered, all states in the Han Dynasty dared not to obey.

Now the situation in the thirteen prefectures of the Great Han Dynasty is clear. Although many princes have different ideas, they dare not disobey the will of the emperor, because they will inevitably attack them together.

Thinking back to the original history, after Yuan Shu got the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, he actually proclaimed himself emperor directly, and finally ended up being attacked by a group of people, but the current situation is no different from Yuan Shu in the original history.

The former is proclaiming the emperor, but now they are conspiring against each other, and the crime of treason committed by the emperor is a crime that cannot be punished and will punish the nine clans.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, with this arrangement, the mobilization of the princes' coalition forces will firstly destroy the rebels without depleting our court troops, and secondly, it will test the princes' loyalty to His Majesty." Xun Yu laughed loudly.

"Qizou Your Majesty, I still have a plan to test the loyalty of the princes of the world." Guo Jia rolled his eyes, and pointed at the princes' bad intentions again.

"Guo Aiqing, tell me..." Liu Xie laughed.

At this stage, the methods that can deflate the princes and strengthen themselves are the best strategies.

"This time, His Majesty's decree has almost mobilized all the princes in the world, leaving Yizhou, Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, and Liangzhou. , They don’t need to send troops, but they can send strategic materials such as food, grass and supplies, if they don’t, then they can be defined as rebellious officials and thieves.” Guo Jia said with a lowly smile, even if they can’t send troops, they have to make money.

"Well, you Guo Fengxiao, this plan is not bad." Liu Xie couldn't help but laughed and scolded Guo Jia when he looked at Guo Jia's cheap look.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty." Guo Jia accepted Liu Xie's compliment very calmly, and stood back to his position proudly.

"Preach my decree and order Yizhou Shepherd Liu Yan, Jiaozhou Shepherd Xie, Liangzhou Han Sui, and Yangzhou Liu Yao to prepare 50 stones of grain and grass for me to use in the crusade against rebels. If you don't respect them, you will be conspiracy It is a serious crime." Liu Xie immediately drafted an order and said,

"Your Majesty is holy." All civil and military officials chanted in unison.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, will my imperial army send troops to supervise the battle? Shock the armies of the princes." Lu Bu asked respectfully.

"If the allied forces of the princes act independently, they will certainly not be able to kill the traitors in a short period of time, and the imperial court should indeed send someone to supervise the battle." Liu Xie said after thinking for a while.
