"I'll ask you, if I ordered you Jia Kui as the Order of Anyi, would you... dare to take on this important task?"

Jia Kui bowed and said, "I came from a Hanwei, how dare I not obey my orders?"

"good!"

Liu Bei nodded heavily and said at the same time: "Ziyuan helped me draw an order, and immediately ordered Liu Ye to serve as the prefect of Hedong and Jia Kui as the Order of Anyi."

"Here!"

Lin Chen agreed, picked up the edict and started writing.

"In addition, I will entrust Yang Xiu and He Kui to serve as the ministers and follow me."

After Liu Bei looked at Lin Chen writing about the same thing, he spoke again.

"Also, don't forget Ma Jun, so I will first order him to be the water chief of the Ministry of Works, and be responsible for the construction of water conservancy and water diversion and irrigation."

"Finally, Zhang Ji's military consultant will write it together."

"Here!"

Lin Chen quickly finished the edict, but soon he was puzzled.

"Your Majesty should know that it is not the best time to send troops now. Should Zhang Ji, the military consultant, get a title in the Ministry of War first?"

"No."

Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "Let him follow you."

"Here."

Lin Chen agreed, added another sentence to the edict, and then handed it to Liu Bei with both hands and said:

"What does Your Majesty think of Chen's edict? But there is still something that needs to be corrected?"

“…no.”

After Liu Bei glanced at the edict, he shook his head and said, "Ziyuan wrote very well, just promulgate it like this."

"yes."

Lin Chen nodded and retreated.

The edict cannot be issued so simply. Although there is no jade seal in the country now, Liu Bei still has a private seal.

Therefore, if you want to issue an edict, you have to wait until Liu Bei has used the seal.

It is also worth mentioning.

Someone mentioned it before the court.

Now, we can make a large seal temporarily based on the imperial seal. When Yuan Shu is pacified, it will not be too late to use the imperial seal.

But Liu Bei did not agree at all.

Instead, he said confidently: It took only half a year to pacify Yuan Shu, only half a year, and there was no need to carve another print.

The court officials at that time were very disbelieving.

after all.

In the eyes of many people at that time, if Yuan Shu dared to be emperor, his power and strength would definitely not be too weak.

It's too exaggerating to think of winning it in half a year.

But soon.

When the battle reports between Guan Yu and Lu Su came one after another, they had to believe it.

at the same time.

They began to despise Yuan Shu in their hearts.

He was beaten to Junqiu in one month.

Even if you tie a dog over, it is probably better than this record, right?

after all.

It takes several days to ride a horse from Lujiang to Junqiu.

If you walk over and fight a few more battles, why wouldn’t it take two or three months, or even half a year later?

But Yuan Shu's subordinate Qiao Rui only lasted for a few days and didn't even last for a month.

I can do it too.

The court officials think so.

It was not until the next battle report from Guan Yu and Lu Su came that they suddenly realized that they really couldn't go on the table.

You know, even Guan Yu almost died in the battle.

If Lu Su hadn't contacted Zhang Liao in time and quickly, it would be hard to say whether the battle would be so smooth.

And they even think about it with their butts.

I didn't react as quickly as Lu Su at all.

Of course, saying that Guan Yu almost died in battle is actually just an exaggeration.

In fact.

Guan Yu was in a relatively dangerous situation at that time.

If you really want to run, you can still run.

The main reason is that Lu Su's reaction was quick and he directly reversed the situation.

He didn't have to think about running at all, just fight.

So, Yuan Shu lost one-third of Neijiujiang County, including Junqiu.

It is said that Yuan Shu was so angry that he was half-hearted after learning the news. If Yan Xiang hadn't stopped him, he would have been determined to execute Qiao Rui.

Fortunately, he didn't do that.

Otherwise, the situation in the Northwest War (in Hefei area) would not be the current anxious situation.

That's right.

After the defeat, Qiao Rui arrived in Hefei again and formed a defensive belt with Zhang Xun.

Even Lu Su and Guan Yu added Zhang Liao, but this deadlock has not been broken yet.

only.

Everyone among the court officials knew that Yuan Shu would not last long.

Because there is also Gao Shun in the northwest of Lujiang.

Gao Shun, who had only brought a few hundred people, cut off the important traffic road of Yuan Shu.

And he persisted until Li Tong's front reinforcements.

With such a person here, how could Yuan Shu be invincible?

This is the current situation in Yuzhou.

Not only did Yuan Shu not be able to open up the situation, but he could only hide in the Yinling, Hefei and Shouchun areas to wait for death.

At this point, many people began to wonder if Yuan Shu was sick.

With just such a little strength, dare to be called emperor?

Are you too brave?

certainly.

Those who think so probably have forgotten that when Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Liu Xie had just died, and Liu Bei had not yet proclaimed himself emperor.

For Yuan Shu at that time, it can be said that as long as he could tear a hole.

This gap can quickly open up the battle whether it is Xuzhou to the east, Central Plains to the west, or Yanzhou to the north.

If Liu Bei had not been elected as emperor, he might have been able to quickly go to Qingzhou with the reputation of Emperor Zhong.

By then, he would occupy most of the Central Plains.

With no emperor at that time, why was the chance of victory not with Yuan Shu?

However, Yuan Shu never expected that Liu Bei would become emperor so soon.

Because of Liu Bei's proclaimed emperor, the beauty he had thought of before flew away directly.

Compared with Emperor Zhong, the princes should finally recognize Emperor Liu more.

So much so that now, he can only survive.

When Lin Chen thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.

He was wondering, if he hadn't deliberately asked Lu Su to tell Yuan Shu about the news, would the latter still not be the emperor now and still be in front of the princes?

What a pity.
