Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 347 News
"Oh... not bad... eh... so awesome..." Bai Tu made a strange noise.

"You just need to read the intelligence. What kind of voice should you use?" Lu Lingqi complained with a black line on her face.

"You don't know...how exciting this information is! Come on, get some sweetmeats, it's a waste just to read it like this! Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Bai Tu said and smacked his lips.

Of course, Lu Lingqi didn't move, because she saw that Bai Tu was "wonderful" and had some joy in suffering. He talked about it lively, but his brows were not lifted!
This information is the information of Chuanfengwei, and it was sent directly to Bai Zhiqin. It was the news that Chufengwei's spies heard in Hanoi more than a month ago.

Bai Tu counted the days, Qu Yi should be about to start taking action!
"No one can think about Mu Xiu today... everyone should come to the General's Mansion to work overtime." Bai Tu said, rubbing his temples.

Soon, the main staff of the Six Ministries and the Privy Council were summoned to the General's Mansion. There were more than a dozen of them in total, all of whom were the core figures of the General's Mansion.

When he called them here, he was not too anxious to avoid being "misunderstood". Bai Tu doesn't want to leak the news yet, and... this is not something that can be done in a day or two!
After hearing that Qu Yi appeared in Hanoi and joined some Black Mountain bandits, Lu Su and others concluded that Yuan Shao was planning to attack Xu Capital by surprise.

This made Bai Tu a little proud, after all...he had judged this way before.

"If nothing goes wrong, Yuan's army will march eastward from Xinzheng in at most half a month. Although the Euphorbias have been defeated by our army many times, they are indeed one of the best in the world. The Black Mountain Army is also the remnant of the Yellow Turban Army. , are best at 'one wave flow', once the two merge, with the Prime Minister's Mansion being wary of the West Road... I'm afraid it will be hard to protect them!"

Lu Su stroked the beard that he had grown recently and said - he and Bai Tu learned the Yi Bo Liu saying.

Lu Su, who usually has a tired face and bags under his eyes that are almost as large as quail eggs, has grown a little mustache on his chin, and looks even more... sloppy!
Bai Tu doesn't know what's wrong with his cousin's aesthetic... But that's not the focus now.

"Xudu has been reinforced several times by Cao Cao, and it is the seat of the imperial court, so you won't have any defense at all, right?" Yu Fan wrinkled his forehead to look like a wifi signal, with three signal grids, indicating that Yu Fan strongly disagreed with Lu Su's point of view .

"It's only because of the imperial court that it's so bad." Lu Kang said forcefully. It was already getting late, and tomorrow was the [-]th day of the month, a day for rest. It was really painful to work overtime at this time.

Bai Tu looked over with some concern. Mr. Lu was really old, and Bai Tu had been looking for opportunities for him to become an official, or to step down and get a casual title.

It's a pity that Zhang Zhao's temperament is too rigid and cannot be flexible, and Jiang Wan is too young now and not sophisticated enough...

And Lu Kang himself obviously wanted to wait for Lu Xun to come back, otherwise he wouldn't be able to worry about the Lu family, but Lu Xun... That's Yizhou, he can't come back in a year or two!
However, given his experience in Yizhou, I believe that after Lu Xun came back, he would adapt a little and be in charge of the household department without much problem.

Lu Kang was talking more and more freely now, and he was pointing directly at the court - no one was stupid here, and everyone except Lu Lingqi who was listening basically understood what he meant.

Chen Gong reported back from Jingnan that the Jingzhou Army began to delay, and on the issue of Qingzhou Donglai, they successfully reached an agreement with Xuzhou...

These are not isolated signs, and they were all dug up by the people in the General's Mansion, further proving that Liu Biao and Liu Bei may have known the news.

That's all for Liu Biao. After losing his influence on Nanyang, he has no offensive claws and can only guard his lair. But Liu Bei is in Xuzhou, but he can directly send troops to intervene in Xudu!

"Yes, Xu Ziyuan is also a very wise man, and he has close contacts with many people in the court. If he is also in Hanoi... I am afraid that Xu Du is in danger of falling! If Duke Bai wants to threaten... the emperor to punish disloyalty, Send troops now!" Kong Rong said, slapping his thigh.

Although Lao Kong was not an important military and political official, but... because he was indeed a member of the Ministry of Rites and was familiar with the situation in the DPRK, he was invited by Bai Tu.

However, other staff members had some differences regarding Kong Rong's suggestion.

"This is the news in June. Now we only have one and a half months, or even a month, at most to react. If we send troops from Jinling, it will definitely be too late, unless we quickly send a message to Nanyang and ask Zilong to gather a group of light cavalry in Nanyang and send troops from Wancheng. There is hope... Whether we can catch up is a [-]-[-] decision." Lu Bu said after weighing.

After thinking for a while, Lu Bu added: "I can go personally to deliver the message, and then I will lead the troops north."

Lu Bu was a little hesitant. If he went, he would be "rescue him" for the second time. Whether it was for the Han family or the general's mansion, it would be a big deal, but... Lu Bu reckoned that if he went to Xudu, he might not be able to come back before the Chinese New Year. If I can't come back... what will happen to Bai Tu's wedding date?
But in the end, Lu Bu still felt that he should be more selfless. This was also for the sake of the general's mansion and Bai Tu, so he made a suggestion.

Of course, Lu Bu did not support sending troops to Xudu, but as the Privy Council envoy, he had to make a judgment on military feasibility. The specific decision on whether to send troops or not would depend on the final outcome.

What Lu Bu didn't expect was that the other staff in the General's Mansion were even more troubled than he was.

Most of the staff agreed to summon the messenger immediately and send troops from Nanyang, but... those who opposed it included Lu Su and Lu Kang!
Among the two left-behind staff, the old and the young, who had the most "weight", both opposed sending troops north.

The reason is simple—what are we sending troops for?
Welcome the Emperor of Han Dynasty to the south?Why bother!The General's Mansion is in Yangzhou and has won the hearts of the people, and the annexation of Jingzhou is just around the corner. At this time, he invited the Emperor of Han to come and cause trouble for himself?

The situation of Bai Tu now is completely different from that of Cao Cao, who was still unpopular in Yanzhou!
To welcome the emperor is a double-edged sword. Historically, after Cao Cao unified the north, he moved his focus to Yecheng. Later, he even named himself King of Wei and established the capital of Wei in Yecheng, together with Xu Du. The court was isolated.

In order to gradually reduce the influence of the Han Dynasty on him-no matter how the emperor is emptied, the prime minister's mansion is nominally the emperor's "assistant"!
However, even if Cao Cao was prepared, when Cao Pi succeeded to the Han Dynasty and became independent, the backlash was severe and left many disasters behind!
As for...just take advantage of the chaos to intercept and kill him, so as to prevent others from taking away the Emperor of Han and causing trouble to the General's Mansion?

It's better not to get into trouble. Anyway, the General's Mansion has Jiuxi, so why bother to wade into this muddy water!
As for those who support it, their ideas are very simple. After all, Cao Cao has already demonstrated how useful the Emperor of Han is...

Bai Tu had also been swinging between these two ideas before.

However, Lu Su easily convinced them, and also completely convinced Bai Tu - the Emperor of the Han Dynasty was very useful, but the best use was when Dong Zhuo was still in the hands of Li Jue and Guo Si. It was second-hand, and they didn't follow the instructions; in Cao Cao's hands, it was already third-hand. In order to restore the function of the Emperor of Han, Cao Cao took the lead in the retro ceremony at first. When he met Liu Xie, he asked the imperial guards to hold him with a knife. !Only then did this third-hand product regain some of its functions...

If the General Mansion takes over again, it will be the fourth hand...

There are not many troubles, but how much functionality is left?
