Chapter 354 Liu Bang enters Sichuan
Chapter 353: Liu Bang enters Sichuan
The ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and finally Yuan Xuan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the situation in Hulao Pass is better than that in Xiaopingjin, so I believe that the troops can be transferred from Hulao Pass to solve the urgent problem."
As an old political veteran, how could Wang Yun not know that Yuan Xiu said he was a mobilizing army on the surface, but in fact he took the opportunity to help Yuan Shao fight for military power.
The Han Dynasty was about to die, but the Yuan family was still thinking about their own interests, which made Wang Yun not angry and immediately stood up and refuted loudly.
"Xiang Yu''s current military strength has only increased to 100,000, while Qin Wen has to face Zhang Jiao''s 300,000 army, and the pressure is far higher than that of Yuan Shao, so the troops in Hulao Pass must not move lightly."
Yuan Xiu immediately showed displeasure and asked with a cold face: "If Xiaopingjin falls, Luoyang will be directly exposed to the Yellow Turban Army''s troops. What''s the point of being firmly guarded by Hulao Pass at that time?"
After the fall of Mengjin Pass, Xiaopingjin was the center of the war, and the role of Hulao Pass is no longer as good as before.
Although what Yuan Xuan said was a fact, Wang Yun knew that he was changing his concepts, and he immediately retorted without mercy.
"The court gave Yuan Benchu ??50,000 elite troops, and Xiaopingjin, the heroic pass as a supporter. If he could not stop twice his enemy, it would be better to change generals as soon as possible."
"You...huh, it''s better than someone''s breakdown!"
Yuan Xuan didn''t expect that Wang Yun was so disrespectful. Although he was angry, he could not refute it, so he had to pull the hatred there.
He Jin was furious and was actually affected by the fish in the pond. This was really treating himself as a soft persimmon, but He Jin finally held back and didn''t say anything, but just touched his nose awkwardly.
Seeing that the court was quarreling, Liu Hong could no longer bear to watch it. He immediately slapped the seats and shouted, "I''m enough, shut up all of them."
Seeing the emperor getting angry, everyone naturally did not dare to say more. Seeing this, Liu Hong said lightly: "The troops in Hulao Pass should not be moved rashly. When the reinforcements from Guanzhong and Yizhou arrived, go to reinforce Xiaopingjin immediately. Before that, Yuan Shao will definitely hold on!"
Xiang Yu is not Zhang Jiao, and Yuan Shao is not Qin Wen. It is not easy for Yuan Shao to persist until the reinforcements arrive under Xiang Yu.
Fortunately, Yuan Shao had Cao Cao and Sun Jian''s support, otherwise Xiaopingjin might have been hid by Xiang Yu.
Yang Biao stood up with a serious look on his face and spoke again: "Your Majesty, if the 100,000 Yizhou troops leave their jurisdiction, it may give other rebel forces an opportunity to take advantage of it. I suggest that good generals should be sent to take charge in case of an accident!"
If Sili cannot be defended, the Han Dynasty will retreat to Guanzhong, and Guanzhong cannot be defended, Yizhou will be the last way for the Han Dynasty to retreat, so the safety of Yizhou is crucial.
“What I said is reasonable.”
Liu Hong nodded, thought for a little while, and ordered: "Transfer my will to confer the title of Liu Yan, the prefect of Zhuo County, as the governor of Yizhou, and Liu Ji (Ji, Liu Bang) as the prefect of Yong''an, and ordered the two of them to go to Yizhou to intimidate the young."
Liu Hong felt guilty about Liu Ji, the illegitimate son, so if he had a good job, Liu Hong would naturally keep it for his son.
If possible, Liu Hong even wanted to grant the position of governor of Yizhou to Liu Ji, but unfortunately Liu Ji did not have that prestige, so he could only let Liu Ji attack Liu Yan.
"My Majesty, what about Guanzhong?" Yuan Feng asked impatiently, obviously wanting to arrange his family to go in, but this is almost impossible.
Guanzhong is the territory of the Guansai family. Even if the Yuan family, as the leader of Kanto, is in power, Kanto, cannot agree to let the Yuan family reach into Guanzhong.
Liu Hong naturally knew what Yuan Feng was going to make. After a deep look at him, he said lightly: "I am going to temporarily move the capital to Chang''an and sit in Guanzhong in person."
After Liu Hong''s words reached the ears of the ministers, they were undoubtedly a major earthquake. They all subconsciously felt that Liu Hong was about to run away. It’s not difficult to understand if you think about it carefully. After all, Luoyang is no longer safe, and how can the emperor be in danger?
But the key is that the war is now an important juncture. If the emperor abandons the capital and runs away at this time, the blow to the morale of the soldiers ahead will be extraordinary, and the chances of victory will be even more slim.
He Jin, who had never expressed his opinion, quickly jumped out of support and said, "Your Majesty is wise. I also believe that Your Majesty should temporarily move the capital to Chang''an. After repelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion, return to Luoyang, this is the best strategy."
He Jin was completely scared by Xiang Yu. As long as he could stay away from the battlefield, he would be willing to go wherever he went, so he was the first to stand up to support the capital.
"No, Your Majesty must not move the capital."
"Your Majesty, moving the capital at this time is equivalent to handing over the entire Sizhou to the Yellow Turbans, and you''re thinking too much!"
Wang Yun and Yang Biao stood up and persuaded each other, and then the loyal ministers also stood up to oppose it.
"You are so loyal to you, but you ignore Your Majesty''s safety. Is this the way to be a minister?" He Jin said with a sneer.
"He Jin, just because of your mistake, I ruined 300,000 elite men. What qualifications do you have to cover up here?"
Yang Biao pointed at He Jin and questioned him sternly, and the scar was uncovered again, and He Jin''s face became extremely ugly. After a cold snort, he stopped talking.
The ministers who supported the capital migration occupied about four levels, and after He Jin, the biggest supporter, was silent, the faction that opposed the capital migration instantly gained the upper hand.
Liu Hong raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then slowly said, "Do you guys really think that my move to the capital is for your own safety?"
Is there any other reason? Most ministers thought this way in their hearts, and of course they would definitely not say this.
"Yesterday, Emperor Gaozu asked me to dream."
The ministers felt that they could not keep up with Liu Hong''s thinking, so why did they suddenly get involved in Emperor Gaozu and his dreams!
"In my dream, Emperor Gaozu told me how to defeat the Yellow Turbans, and moving the capital is only the first step."
This reason is too powerful and it is speechless. When the country is in crisis, the founding emperor entrusted his dream to resolve the danger. Well, there is nothing wrong with it, there is nothing wrong with it.
But Emperor Gaozu hadn''t been able to understand the dream, so why did he just send a dream at this time?
There were basically few ministers in the court who believed that the emperor had even made up the excuse of Emperor Gaozu''s dream. It was obvious that he had made up his mind, and it would probably be useless to persuade him.
Play whatever you like, anyway, this big man doesn’t have much capital to defeat you. Some loyal ministers thought in dismay.
"Wang Aiqing, Yang Aiqing... You stay here to help me refer to Emperor Gaozu''s plan. If it is not feasible, I will never move the capital."
Liu Hong had already made up his mind to hang Liu Bang''s sign, which would make it easier to act, but Liu Hong probably never expected that the ancestor he mentioned had now become his son and was sent to Shuzhong by him.
