At the sa ti, wars erupted everywhere.
Year three of the rise of the Han Dynasty, March;
— In Yu Province, Sun Jian finally captured Pei Kingdom and headed straight for Liang Kingdom.
End of March;
Liu Yuu could no longer tolerate Gongsun Zan and took the initiative to attack him.
However, he was ultimately defeated by Gongsun Zan, who then completely controlled all of Youzhou State.
He then received news from Liu Bei.
He led his army to directly attack Jizhou State.
In a mont of desperation, Yuan Shao had no choice but to summon Cao Cao, intending to quickly conquer Qing Province.
But Cao Cao obviously would not join Yuan Shao at such a ti.
Cao Cao feigned support of Yuan Shao under the pretense of attacking Langya.
However, this maneuver also forced Liu Bei back.
April;
— In Bingzhou State, with the help of Lu Bu, Ding Yuan finally captured the two commanderies of Shangdang and Taiyuan.
He firmly established his position in Bingzhou State.
May;
— In Liangzhou State, under the recomndation of Gu Wei, Huangfu Song finally took control of the entire Anding Commandery.
In fact, given Huangfu Song’s capabilities.
This speed was indeed considered extrely slow.
Even Gu Wei himself hadn’t anticipated that the conflicts in Liangzhou State would be so many.
The rebel tribes were manageable.
The main problem lay in the forr troops under Dong Zhuo.
No, calling them "forr troops" wouldn’t be accurate.
Even though Li Jue and Guo Si were brave, they were hardly a match for Huangfu Song and Gu Wei in terms of commanding an army.
The main problem stemd from one individual.
— Jia Xu!
Ever since Li Jue and Guo Si had begun listening to Jia Xu, the developnt of Huangfu Song and Gu Wei in Liangzhou State had beco increasingly difficult.
Although Gu Wei had never t this person.
He did not forget that Gu Wei had so ability to assess people.
Through Jia Xu’s multiple strategies, he realized the extraordinary nature of this individual.
The most crucial point is....
Gu Wei always felt that Jia Xu’s ambition for conquest was not that strong and seed just to want a stable environnt to settle in.
This speculation made Gu Wei sowhat self-doubtful, but he still dispatched soone to approach Jia Xu. .....
....
Hanzhong.
After Gu Chen led his army into Hanzhong, he rapidly developed his influence.
The reputation of the Gu Clan was still highly effective.
In a short period, he had firmly established himself in Hanzhong and naturally received updates on the situation across the land.
"Wen Ruo, just as you predicted..."
"Once we withdrew from Luoyang, the situation of the world beca completely chaotic."
He had a faint smile on his face, and his gaze was profoundly deep.
"Young Master." Xun Yu also smiled slightly, looking at Gu Chen, saying, "Where there is profit, there is gathering; where there is profit, there is dispersing."
"These were the words of the late Master Gu, so how could they be wrong?"
A flash of reminiscence appeared in Gu Chen’s eyes imdiately.
But he quickly suppressed this emotion, looking at Xun Yu, he said, "Wen Ruo, what do you think would happen if we reveal the matter of the Jade Seal now?"
"You are wise, Young Master!"
Xun Yu’s eyes suddenly brightened, seemingly already having had this thought, and without hesitation, he said, "Considering today’s state of affairs."
"The lords of the four directions wish to use the na of the Han Dynasty to carve up the world."
"It seems that the influential families across the land have all seen through the situation, how can they be willing in their hearts?"
"Think of Cao Cao... Liu Bei... Sun Jian and others, they all co from humble backgrounds."
"If the Young Master reveals the news."
"Then the usurper Emperor Liu Dai will beco rootless duckweed, and the heroes of the four directions will certainly develop a spirit of rebellion."
"However... the Young Master must rember not to leak that the Heirloom Seal of the Realm is in your possession."
The Heirloom Seal of the Realm is a symbol of the Celestial Mandate.
In the past, Liu Xuan managed to establish Xuanhan with the Heirloom Seal of the Realm he ca upon.
An Emperor without the Celestial Mandate, in the current tis, cannot command the allegiance of the people!
Especially since Liu Dai has no real power.
"Rest assured, Wen Ruo."
Gu Chen smiled lightly and said, "How could I be so foolish?"
Having said that, Gu Chen imdiately called for soone to deliver this instruction.
Gu Yi had been watching the developnt of the situation and was extrely shocked.
The current state of affairs had already deviated completely from the original history.
Although it appeared to be much more chaotic.
Upon careful observation, he also discerned the underlying core.
This ti, the chaotic world seed to have transford into a struggle between the "low-born" and the "aristocracy."
The reforms proposed by Gu Xi had already profoundly influenced the course of history.
Once this chaotic era concludes.
What kind of world will it beco?
If the systems for future generations could indeed begin developing in the historical context now, how significant would the changes to history be?
At this mont, Gu Yi finally had so understanding of just how extraordinary Gu Xi’s achievent as the "pioneer" truly was.
Why it was a rare achievent that surpassed all previous ones attained.
If all this could truly be accomplished.
The impact on the entirety of history might completely surpass anyone before it! .....
