At this time, Cao Cao had already welcomed Emperor Xian of Han and moved the capital to Xuchang. Cao Cao was appointed as Sikong and in fact, he controlled the entire power. All officials listened to Cao Cao.
In the first month, Cao Cao attacked Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu pretended to surrender and immediately rebelled. His eldest son Cao Ang, nephew Cao Anmin and fierce general Dian Wei died in battle.
……
Shouchun.
At this time, Yuan Shu was extravagant and dissolute, extorting taxes and extorting taxes, causing the Jianghuai area to be dilapidated. Many people starved to death and his troops were alienated.
He played with the jade seal twenty-four hours a day and muttered to himself.
People were afraid of being focused. Once they were focused on one thing, they would hypnotize themselves. In the initial stage, they would cover their ears and steal the bell. In the intermediate and advanced stages, they would pretend that no one was around. When they stole the bell, they would not even cover their ears.
"If we accidentally bump into Yuan Gonglu today, we don't need much medical knowledge to determine that this brother is sick, and his illness is not light.
However, at this moment, he looked a little ill.
February.
Yuan Shu finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He felt that the time was ripe. It was time for him to declare himself emperor.
As for Yuan Shu claiming to be the emperor, the others were submissive, and Zhou Yu told Yuan Shu the drawbacks of claiming to be the emperor.
Not only did Yuan Shu not listen to him, but he also scolded him angrily.
Zhou Yu could only leave in a huff, thinking that Yuan Shu was mediocre.
If he continued to stay in Shouchun, it was very likely that he would be buried with Yuan Shu. It was time to think of a way out.
But where? Which force could give him the strength to take revenge for Sun Ce?
……
On this day.
Yuan Shu changed into the emperor's servant and sat in the emperor's carriage. He was offering sacrifices to heaven and earth in Shouchun and to the sages of all walks of life.
He came to the main seat with a sinister smile on his face.
His Highness was his civil and military officials.
After the eunuch read out the imperial edict, Yuan Shu officially ascended the throne!
"Long live my emperor!”
All the officials bowed to Yuan Shu.
"Rise!" Yuan Shu stroked his beard and smiled sinisterly.
Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun and established the name Zhong.
He, Yuan Shu, had finally achieved his dream of becoming an emperor, and he felt great…
Xuchang.
"Reporting to Sikong, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun and established the Zhong family. He set up officials and worshipped in the northern and southern suburbs!”The scout reported respectfully.
"Little Yuan Shu…actually became an emperor?!”
Cao Cao muttered to himself. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly laughed,"Alright, alright! Zhongde, what do you think of me attacking Shouchun now?”
Cheng Yu stepped forward and said leisurely,"Now that Yuan Shu has declared himself emperor, this is indeed a good opportunity for Sikong."”
"Yuan Shu's actions will definitely be regarded as a traitor by the world, and it will also give others a reason to attack him. We can unite the heroes of the world and attack him together!”
"This time, my lord has raised the banner of attacking Yuan, which can increase my lord's reputation. Secondly, there will definitely be many people who will respond to this attack, and I can also recruit righteous people for my own use. This is a trip that kills two birds with one stone!”
After hearing this, Cao Cao laughed out loud."Haha, Zhongde understands my feelings.”
They raised the banner of crusading against Yuan Shu and called on all forces to attack Yuan Shu. He also wanted to win over the hearts of the people and strengthen his team!
Following which, Cao Cao frowned and said solemnly,"If we attack Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao takes the opportunity to attack Xuchang, what should we do?”
" Yuan Shao from the north…" Cheng Yu pondered for a moment and said,""I'm sure that he won't rashly attack us before Gongsun Zan is pacified.”
"Because once Yuan Shao exchanges fire with us, it will give Gongsun Zan an opportunity.”
After hearing Cheng Yu's analysis, Cao Cao was overjoyed. His eyes lit up and he no longer asked anyone else. He immediately ordered,"Let the emperor issue an edict to immediately issue a denunciation to crusade against the traitor Yuan Shu!”
Everyone immediately accepted the order.
Moling.
Liu Ji sat in the main seat.
"My lord, Yuan Shu has declared himself emperor in Shouchun. Cao Cao has already issued a denunciation to crusade against the traitor Yuan Shu. And our Jiangdong is close to Shouchun. Should we take action?”Zhang Zhao cupped his hands and said.
Liu Ji nodded at Zhang Zhao.”
Hearing Liu Ji's words, everyone was excited.
After developing in River East for so long, it was time to expand the territory of River East and compete with the heroes of the Central Plains.
"Cao Cao raised the banner of Yuan Shu and attacked Yuan Shu's territory with great fanfare. Yuan Shu would definitely send an army to intercept them.”
"Shouchun is currently empty, so it's time for us to attack Shouchun. If we send a large army over, we will definitely be able to take down Shouchun without anyone noticing.”
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Liu Ji laughed out loud."Xiao Cun is indeed a great talent! After we take down Shouchun, we'll drink and have fun!”
"Haha!" Guo Jia and Liu Ji looked at each other and smiled.
When everyone heard Liu Ji and Guo Jia's words, their blood boiled.
Xu Prefecture.
Lu Bu was drinking and making merry in the hall.
"Wen Hou, Yuan Shu is going to be the emperor of Shouchun. Do you have a plan?" Chen Gong walked in.”
Lu Bu glanced at Chen Gong and said in a slightly drunk tone,"It's a good thing that Yuan Shu became the emperor! My daughter, Lu Lingqi, is engaged to his son, Yuan Yao. If I send Lingqi over now, my daughter will be the Crown Princess and I will become the Imperial Brother-in-law. Who will dare to bully Xu Prefecture in the future?”
As he spoke, Lu Bu looked forward to the future.
"Wen Hou, you must not! If you send Miss over now, you will harm Miss! When Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, all the heroes in the world attacked him. How long do you think Yuan Shu can resist?”
Chen Gong said earnestly.
Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong indifferently,""You just can't bear to see me, okay?"
" This…" Chen Gong was speechless.
"Alright, I naturally have my own ideas. You can leave!”
After saying that, Lu Bu continued drinking and enjoying himself.
Chen Gong flicked his sleeves and left.
……
However, Liu Bei, who was stationed in Xiaopei, believed that this crusade against Yuan Shu was for the greater good and would greatly help his reputation.
After being chased out of Xiapi by Lu Bu…
Liu Bei had always wanted to start from scratch. If he destroyed Yuan Shu this time, his army would naturally become stronger. At that time, he would have a chance to take back Xiapi and become the master of Xu Prefecture!
Thus, he brought Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and thousands of subordinates to Cao Cao's place, preparing to attack Yuan Shu together with Cao Cao…
