Chapter 22-Four Generations and Three Dukes, Yuan Benchu! (New book) 1/7
Ye City, Yuan Shao's base camp.
Ever since Yuan Shao took over Jizhou, which he had always dreamed of, he had started his road to conquering Hebei.
He had used the reputation of the four dukes to the fullest.
The original resources of the Yuan family were split into two, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
It was a pity that Yuan Shu, this disappointing person, had played a good hand and ruined it.
He actually became an emperor.
Yuan Shu had already forced himself to a dead end, so now all the resources of the Yuan Clan were placed on Yuan Shao's side.
This also caused Yuan Shao's strength to rapidly expand.
After taking down Qing and the two prefectures, he set his sights on Gongsun Zan's Youzhou.
After a series of tug-of-war battles, Yuan Shao obtained a complete victory through the Battle of the Border Bridge.
Now, Gongsun Zan could only hide in Yi Jing and build a wall.
Everyone knew that Gongsun Zan's demise was only a matter of time.
"My lord, the gathering of rations is basically completed. As long as we wait until the spring blossoms, my lord can once again lead the army north and wipe out Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop. At that time, there will be no resistance from my lord in the north.”Guo Tu cupped his hands and said to Yuan Shao, who was sitting at the top.
Hearing his subordinate's praise, Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the main seat, smiled very happily. He gently stroked his beard with one hand.
"The reason why I can be where I am today is all thanks to your help. After I eliminate the crafty sycophants and help the Han Dynasty, I will definitely report to the emperor to confer titles to all of you.”Yuan Shao said with a smile.
"Thank you, my lord."
The civil officials and generals in the hall congratulated him in unison.
In contrast to the optimism of Guo Tu and the others, there was another strategist in the hall who did not look very happy.
Guo Tu captured all of this.
A shrewd look flashed across Guo Tu's eyes as he looked at that person and said,""Brother Yuan Hao, why are you so unhappy? Now that the lord has obtained all the land north of the Yellow River, shouldn't he be happy? Why does Brother Yuan Hao look so sad?"
Guo Tu's sharp voice rang out in the hall.
Instantly, everyone's gaze focused on Tian Feng.
That's right, the person Guo Tu was talking about was Tian Feng, one of Yuan Shao's advisors.
Although it seemed like everyone was standing together in the hall.
However, if a careful person were to carefully distinguish them, there would still be some differences.
Guo Tu, Xin Pi, and Xin Ping, the three strategists from the Yingchuan clan, were closer.
Tian Feng, Shen Pei, and Ju Shou, who had been criticized by Guo Tu, were originally native aristocrats of Jizhou and were also old subordinates of Han Fu.
The remaining ones were Xu You and Feng Ji, who were considered half of Yuan Shao's fellow countrymen.
The eight strategists were divided into three factions, and they even caught up with Yuan Shao, a lord who was relatively soft-hearted.
It was said that the factional strife under Yuan Shao was more serious, and it could be seen just at this moment.
Tian Feng, who was being criticized by Guo Tu, didn't pay much attention to it.
Instead, he took a step forward and cupped his hands at Yuan Shao."My lord, although the situation in Hebei is clear now, my lord's real enemy is not in Hebei. My lord, don't forget that Cao Cao had just taken Xuzhou from Lu Bu a few days ago.”
"Xuzhou is a rich land with millions of households. In addition to Yanzhou, Luoyang, and other places, all the land of Sanqin is under Cao Cao's command. Cao Cao is the true enemy of my lord!”Tian Feng said with a solemn expression.
If it was any other time, Yuan Shao might not be angry if Tian Feng said this.
However, just as Guo Tu praised him, Tian Feng poured a bucket of cold water on him.
This sounded like a lesson to him.
Therefore, Yuan Shao's expression was a little unhappy.
Seeing the expression on Yuan Shao's face, Guo Tu secretly laughed. He then took a step forward and said to Tian Feng,"Brother Yuan Hao's words are a little serious.”
"Who is the lord? How can Cao Mengde compare to him?”
Guo Tu proudly pointed at Yuan Shao and said,""My lord's four generations and three dukes are famous throughout the world. That Cao Mengde is merely the descendant of a eunuch. My lord has now occupied Hebei, with millions of armored strategists as numerous as clouds and fierce generals.”
"Brother Yuan Hao, don't try to boost the morale of others and diminish your own prestige. Also, I heard that Cao Mengde didn't capture Lu Bu's men after taking Xu Prefecture, and Chen Gong and the others fled.”
"It is said that Cao Mengde was almost killed by a nameless general at the White Gate because of Diao Chan. How can such a person match up to my lord?”
After Guo Tu's flattery, Yuan Shao felt refreshed, and even he himself felt a little light-headed.
Tian Feng wanted to say something, but he was pulled back by his companion Shen Pei.
As for Xu You, he was still stroking his beard and watching the show.
Just as Yuan Shao was feeling smug, a messenger suddenly walked in from outside.
"Reporting to my lord, the army at the front has reported that a group of nearly 20,000 rebel soldiers has already entered Qinghe Country and will soon arrive at Anping Country!”
