Three Kingdoms: I have a job transfer palace

As early as when Han Xian Emperor Liu Xiegang was killed by Li Ru, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who were taken to Liaodong by Liu Feng, joined Cai Yong to request Liu Feng to take over the throne of the Han Dynasty and proclaim himself emperor.

However, Liu Feng could not make up his mind at that time, so he asked Guo Jia for advice. Guo Jia believed that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had just been killed, the world was in chaos, and the princes from all sides had already formed separatist regimes.

With the death of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, there was no ruler in the world, and every prince must have the idea of ​​​​separating his own country.

Moreover, although the princes had just experienced the crusade against Dong Zhuo, they did not attack each other. Each other had strong troops and horses. If Liu Feng openly proclaimed himself emperor, it would definitely arouse public outrage.

If no one becomes emperor, then everyone is equal and has the opportunity to aspire to the Central Plains.

But once someone proclaims himself emperor, this balance will be broken. What's more, if Liu Feng proclaims himself emperor at that time, because of his status as the king and the status of the Han Dynasty's consort, it is equivalent to the Han Dynasty re-creating the emperor.

Those princes who were ready to stand on their own suddenly became Han ministers again, which made them lose the reason to claim kingship and hegemony in name.

Therefore, if he proclaimed himself emperor at that time, he would definitely not be recognized by the princes of the world.

Even because there had just been a precedent of nineteen princes attacking Dong Zhuo, there was no guarantee that the princes would come again and another twenty princes would attack Liu Feng.

Although Dong Zhuo is domineering, he only benefits the interests of the Han Dynasty, so only those princes who are still a little loyal to the Han in their hearts will join the alliance.

But if Liu Feng proclaims himself emperor, then he will infringe upon the interests of all the princes in the world. Then the coalition forces to attack him may not be more than a dozen, or even dozens.

At that time, Liu Feng, who only occupied half of Youzhou including Liaodong and Xuantu, did not have the strength to compete with all the princes in the world.

This was the most direct reason why Guo Jia opposed Liu Feng's proclaimed emperor at that time.

In addition, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, as the veterans of several dynasties who were most loyal to the Han Dynasty, wanted to support Liu Feng in becoming emperor, and their most fundamental wish was to continue the title of the Han Dynasty.

They didn't want the Han Dynasty that they had been loyal to all their lives to disappear like this, so they supported Liu Feng as emperor and were just successors. They continued to use Han as the country's name and inherited the legacy and reputation of their predecessors.

If Liu Feng agreed, then his highest achievement would be to become the master of ZTE like Emperor Guangwu.

This is what Guo Jia doesn't want to see. He wants to assist Liu Feng to become a founder, and he can also rely on his achievements to become the founding hero of Liu Feng's new country.

Of course, not only Guo Jia, but Liu Feng is also unwilling to become the successor.

Having traveled through time, he naturally knows the difference between a successor and a founder.

The simplest example is that in his previous life, even primary school students knew that the founder of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of Han, was called Liu Bang.

However, the person who succeeded him to the throne, let alone Emperor Wen of Han and Emperor Jing of Han, even Emperor Wu of Han who created the prosperous age of the Han Dynasty, most people only know the title of Emperor Wu of Han, but not the name of Liu Che.

If Liu Feng had proclaimed himself emperor at that time, his highest achievements would have reached the height of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, the names of Emperor Guangwu and Liu Xiu were far inferior to those of the great ancestor Liu Bang and even compared to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che. cut.

If Liu Feng proclaimed himself emperor, I am afraid his reputation would be worse than that of Emperor Guangwu. Therefore, neither Liu Feng nor Guo Jia wanted to proclaim himself emperor immediately at that time.

However, the current situation has changed a lot from what it was back then.

First of all, after many years of continuous battles among the major princes, the weak ones such as Zhang Miao and Liu Yu have been eliminated. Although the remaining ones are strong, they have already entered a period of exhaustion due to continuous battles.

Not only was food consumption serious, but the soldiers were also exhausted. Therefore, even if Liu Feng proclaimed himself emperor, they would not have the energy to conquer again.

Secondly, the Han Dynasty has been destroyed for a long time, and during this period, Yuan Shu has taken the lead in proclaiming emperor. Liu Feng's proclaiming emperor at this time will not become a target of public criticism.

Of course, the two most important reasons are that at this time Liu Feng occupied the four states of Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou and Yizhou, and had become the most powerful prince in the world.

At this time, even if all the princes such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao unite to attack him, he is fully capable of protecting himself or even repelling them.

Another point is that when Liu Feng proclaims himself emperor, he will no longer use the name of the Han Dynasty. Instead, he will establish the Dragon Kingdom and become the founding king of a brand new country.

It is precisely based on the above reasons that Guo Jia established Liu Feng as emperor when all the princes were dying, and Liu Feng naturally would not refuse.

After a series of arrangements and preparations, Liu Feng proclaimed himself emperor three days later, on January 1, 190 AD, in the Guoxin capital city of Anping, Jizhou, with the title of Jianguolong, the reign name of Shenlong, and occupied Youzhou and Qingzhou. , Jizhou and Yizhou.

The establishment of a new empire is naturally inseparable from the assistance of ministers, so after Liu Feng ascended the throne, the first thing he did was prepare to entrust hundreds of officials.

At present, the two most important people under Liu Feng are Guo Jia, who has joined Liu Feng since the Dragon City Poetry Society and has been assisting him for many years, working hard and without complaint, and Guo Jia, who although he has not been here for a long time, is very famous and capable. Xun Yu.

For these two super counselors, Liu Feng would naturally not treat them badly, and would definitely regard them as his most important support.

And it just so happens that although the two are both top super counselors, their areas of expertise complement each other.

Guo Jia was good at military affairs and had great talents in marching and fighting, making judgments on the battlefield, and formulating plans. Therefore, Liu Feng appointed Guo Jia as the Prime Minister of Zuo, with full power in charge of the military affairs of the Dragon Kingdom.

Although Xun Yu was also very capable in the military, he was mainly good at strategy and various internal affairs. With him, Liu Feng did not have to worry about the government affairs of the Dragon Kingdom, so Liu Feng appointed Xun Yu as the Right Prime Minister, with full power in charge. Government affairs of the Dragon Kingdom.

After the most important prime minister is confirmed, the next step is to rely on the military generals to gain a foothold in troubled times.

Among all the generals under Liu Feng, Taishi Ci, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei were the most powerful and capable, so Liu Feng named Taishi Ci the general of Zhenbei, Zhao Yun the general of Zhennan, and the general of Dianwei Zhenxi.

Although Xu Rong had followed Liu Feng for many years, he was not strong in military force. Secondly, he was good at defense and almost never went on expeditions with Liu Feng, so his military merit was not high. Therefore, Liu Feng named Xu Rong the general of Pingbei, but he was also good at defense. Foreign animal husbandry.

In addition, because of Xu Shu's outstanding ability and military and political skills, Liu Feng named Xu Shu the shepherd of Qingzhou and guarded Qingzhou.

In addition, Liu Feng also made Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun the three princes. Although their official positions were very high, they had no real power, which was suitable for the three of them to provide for themselves in old age.
