Chapter 1217: Drag Yuan Shu into the water
For Li Mi, surrendering to Liu Yao was a helpless choice.
Although Li Mi wanted to surrender to Qin Hao, he considered that Qin Hao had a close relationship with the Ming Dynasty at this time, and he was afraid that Qin Hao would sell him to the Ming Dynasty in order to make friends with him.
In addition, seeking favor to Qin Hao means completely giving up his ambitions, while Li Mi is not willing to be just a minister.
As Li Mi''s Yellow Turbans surrendered minister, Li Zicheng and Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely not take him in, and Cao Cao and Tao Qian were unable to protect themselves, so the four families in Yanzhou and Xuzhou could also be directly ruled out.
After this rule, among the forces around Li Mi, only Liu Yao was left to surrender.
Liu Yao was having a headache because of Sun Jian at this time. If Li Mi surrendered at this time, even if Liu Yao was afraid of Li Mi, he would definitely treat Li Mi well in order to fight against Sun Jian!
After Li Mi led the remnants of the army to leave Yuzhou, Yuan Shu occupied the entire Yuzhou except Yingchuan County. Although there was no unified state, he was also the most complete princes in a state except Hong Xiuquan and Qin Hao.
Yuan Shu also wanted to send troops to retake Yingchuan from Cao Cao, but Yan Xiang offered advice and was not in a hurry to retake Yingchuan for the time being.
After listening to Yan Xiang''s advice, Yuan Shu also realized that Cao Cao was still needed to fight against Li Zicheng. If the troops were sent to take Yingchuan away at this time, Cao Cao would probably not be Li Zicheng''s opponent, and he would then face Li Zicheng''s threat directly.
In order to allow the two sides to continue to consume each other in this way, Yuan Shu decided to take away the Jianghuai land from Liu Yao first, and then return to the army and regain Yingchuan after he unified Yangzhou, and then unify the Central Plains.
The reason why Yuan Shu chose Liu Yao as his opponent was naturally because he was among the forces around Yuan Shu. Liu Yao was undoubtedly the softest persimmon.
Now Yuan Shu is surrounded by four forces, including Qin Hao in the West, Cao Cao in the North, Zhu Yuanzhang in the East, and Liu Yao in the South. Qin Hao is undoubtedly the strongest among these four forces.
Qin Hao''s power spans the two prefectures of Jingsi. Although most of the main forces have been mobilized to Hetao, Bingzhou, they have also left enough troops in Jingbei and Sizhou, and with the power in Yuan Shu''s hands, they can''t swallow them at all.
Cao Cao in the north was Yuan Shu''s barrier and could help Yuan Shu resist Li Zicheng.
Zhu Yuanzhang from the East had a strong record, and Xuzhou was easy to attack and difficult to defend. At this time, he would only divide Yuan Shu''s troops. Overall, the harm outweighed the benefits.
So after all, the only forces that Yuan Shu can be annexed, and the only ones that can be swallowed by Liu Yao are the only ones that can be swallowed.
Just as Yuan Shu was about to send troops to attack Liu Yao, the arrival of a man changed Yuan Shu''s attention, and this man was Wang Mang.
After Wang Mang integrated the scattered soldiers of the Zhang and Chen families in Jizhou, he handed over this force that did not belong to him at all to Chen Qingzhi. Then he took Ju Wuba to Yuzhou to meet Yuan Shu, who wanted to lobby Yuan Shu to change his mind and send troops to take Sizhou from Qin Hao.
The battle between Qin and Yuan Meng in Hetao blocked the national destiny was probably still at a disadvantage in the eyes of all the princes in the world.
Although Qin and Jin claimed to have an army of 500,000, 200,000 of them were soldiers and civilians, which is an indisputable fact. Therefore, in fact, there are only 300,000 troops, and it is naturally extremely difficult to win the Mongolian Iron Cavalry.
In the eyes of the princes, Qin and Jin were at a disadvantage, but in Wang Mang''s eyes, Qin and Jin were sure to win this battle.
In Wang Mang''s opinion, no matter how good Temujin is to fight, the battle cannot be viewed based on common sense since Qin Hao arrived in Hetao.
When Wang Mang was still in Hanoi, he was knocked out of shadow by a meteorite from Qin Hao. If Qin Hao summoned a few meteorites in the battle, it would be useless for Temujin to come.
Wang Mang guessed that Qin Hao would never summon meteorites so frequently, otherwise there would be no need for troops to encounter an enemy. Just use meteorites to smash them. But even if Qin Hao''s unsolvable factor was eliminated, Wang Mang still did not like Temujin.
The general lineup of the Qin and Jin armies is also unsolvable. Bai Qi, Li Jing, Wang Meng, Jiang Song, Ran Min, Gao Chong, Yuwen Chengdu, Jia Fu... With so many top commanders and powerful generals, Temujin''s military strength advantage is not great. Only if he can win the alliance between the Qin and Jin armies is a ghost.
I have to say that Wang Mang may be the most sober person nowadays. Even Qin Hao doesn’t think he can be stable, but he dares to say that Qin Hao will definitely beat Temujin. There are not many people in the world who have this vision.
Wang Mang guessed that after Qin Hao won, under the general trend, the princes of Hebei would be unable to stop it. Once Qin Hao was allowed to unify Hebei, he would have the capital to unify the world, so of course he had to do something to hold Qin Hao''s pace.
Although there are many forces bordering Qin Hao, Cao Cao, Li Shimin, Yuan Shu, Huang Zu, Liu Xiu... but few companies can pose a threat to Qin Hao.
What''s more, this is the critical period of foreign invasion. There are only a few who dare to risk their best to send troops to deal with Qin Hao. After thinking about it, Wang Mang could only think of one, that is Yuan Shu.
First of all, Yuan Shu had just driven Li Mi away, and he was the time when the number of new forces was the most, and he could only draw enough troops to deal with Qin Hao.
Secondly, Yuan Shu''s sphere of influence was close to Qin Hao, and if Qin Hao continued to grow, he would be most threatened.
Third, Yuan Shu must also want to swallow Qin Hao''s Jingbei and Sizhou, and this temptation of interest will definitely make Yuan Shu excited.
Finally, Yuan Shu and Qin Hao have been resentful for a long time, and both for both public and private, Yuan Shu has reasons to send troops.
In summary, Wang Mang decided to drag Yuan Shu into the water, and then he embarked on the road to lobbying Yuan Shu in Yuzhou.
After learning that Wang Mang was looking for a meeting, Yuan Shu was overjoyed.
Wang Mang stirred up the storm in Sizhou with his own strength, which also made him a famous and wise man. Although most of them were infamous, princes like Yuan Shu would definitely not care about it.
"Mr. Wang Mang, I have heard of Mr. Shu for a long time. I am indeed well-known when I see it today."
As soon as he saw Wang Mang, Yuan Shu stepped forward to ask about his well-being, looking extremely enthusiastic and respectful to the wise and humble.
Wang Mang looked at Yuan Shu back and forth, and it was really difficult to combine the person in front of him who looked extremely smart at first sight with the short-sighted Yuan Shu in the Romance.
"It''s true that the Romance of the Romance cannot be believed in all." Wang Mang said in his heart.
But the smarter Yuan Shu is, the better, because only in this way will he realize how great the threat Qin Hao is, and Wang Mang has the possibility of convincing him to attack Sizhou.
"I wonder what kind of expensive Mr. Wang Mang is coming here at this time?" Yuan Shu said with a smile.
“Nothing else…”
Wang Mang showed an extremely humble expression, but said an extremely arrogant word.
"Just just to save the Lord''s life."
[Dingdong, Wang Mang''s skill is activated, Yuan Shu''s intelligence is-5, and Yuan Shu''s intelligence is currently reduced to 71. 】
