Chapter Fifty-Eight: Murder with a Knife

"My lord, there is a messenger in Bishui Pass who is going to Sun Jian's camp, according to the people below, it is Li Xuan, who is at war with Sun Ce during the day. ”

As soon as Yuan Shu returned to the camp, some cronies reported what happened in Sun Jian's camp.

"Do you know what happened to Li Xun's coming?"

Yuan Shu took a sip of wine in his mouth, and then sandwiched a slice of cooked beef, and he was very uncomfortable. The baggage of the coalition army was originally under the control of Yuan Shu, and all materials and Yuan Shu could use it.

Of course, Yuan Shu and Dong Zhuo can't be compared.

"Sun Jian's camp is very well guarded, and the soldiers below can't listen to it. However, there are rumors among the lieutenant generals of Sun Jian's camp that Li Zhuo is here to persuade Sun Jian to surrender, and Dong Zhuo has a daughter who wants to marry Sun Jian's son. ”

"Haha!"

Hearing this, Yuan Shu was immediately happy, and said disdainfully: "Sun Jian is strong, how can he marry Dong Zhuo's traitor, Dong Zhuo's move is really self-inflicted." ”

"What the lord said is very true!"

Yang Hong, the chief historian under Yuan Shu, immediately jumped out and patted Yuan Shu on the back, which made Yuan Shu so happy that he couldn't find the north. Although Yang Hong has some talents, he is greedy for gold and silver, and his skills of slapping horses are very exquisite, and Yuan Shu is almost not obedient to him.

"Lord, now that Li Zhao is here, why not kill him, and also make Dong Zhuo's rebel thief have one less help?"

"Yes, yes! Kill that Li Xuan, and let the world know that I am powerful. ”

Yuan Shu listened to Yang Hong's suggestion, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Yuan Shu, who was so happy and greedy for fame, was able to become the second largest force in the Kwantung Coalition Army, but because he was the concubine of the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, many literati came to serve him. Of course, most of the people who will come to serve Yuan Shu are only people with a little talent, and people who are really talented will not come to serve Yuan Shu. Throughout the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which of the strategists and generals who left their names in history served Yuan Shu?

Just by the fact that Yuan Shu dared to brazenly claim the emperor, you can know that this is a guy who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who occupy the land of Sizhou and have strong power, do not dare to do such a thing. Although the Son of Heaven at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was incompetent, he was not a brutal person, and there was no reason to call him emperor at all.

Cao Cao is just coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and Yuan Shao just wants to establish Liu Yu, a relative of the Han family, as the Son of Heaven, and Yuan Shu's brainlessness can be seen.

"Lord, no! Yang Hong's move is to trap the lord in an unkind and unrighteous place, and he hopes that the lord will think twice. ”

Seeing that Yuan Shu seemed to be moved, Bo Yanxiang, the master of Yuan Shu, immediately came out to stop it. "My lord, as the old saying goes, 'two armies do not fight and do not kill', if Li Xuan is killed, I am afraid that the world will despise it. ”

"Yan Xiang, do you still have a lord in your eyes?"

Yang Hong shouted angrily, pointed at Yan Xiang, and retorted loudly: "Dong Zhuo is a traitor, and the lord is his subordinate, who in the world will blame the lord? Besides, if the alliance leader kills Dong Zhuo's envoy, why can't the lord kill him?"

"It is unkind for the leader of the alliance to kill the messenger, and if the lord kills, it is also unkind. Don't you want your lord to be laughed at by the world?"

"Shut up!"

Yuan Shu was already moved, so he wanted to kill Li Xu. However, after listening to Yan Xiang's words, he felt that it made sense, but what Yan Xiang said made him dislike, and at this moment, seeing Yan Xiang and Yang Hong as noisy as shrews scolding the street, he immediately stopped the two. As for whether to kill Li Xuan, Yuan Shu already had an idea.

"What you two said is reasonable, Yuan Benchu killed the messenger for no reason, but it was unkind, but I can't be like him. You are both humerus, and you should conspire together, so why quarrel over such a trivial matter?"

Yuan Shu soothed the two of them when he heard this, and waved his hand to order everyone to retreat, but he continued to enjoy the wine and food.

Yang Hong glared at Yan Xiang angrily and walked away.

……

However, it was said that Li Zhuo reported Sun Jian's words to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was furious, but he did not reward or punish Li Xuan, and ordered him to continue to go back to guard Bishui Pass.

And Li Qi also knew what Dong Zhuo meant, and his expression was more respectful after returning, lest he arouse Dong Zhuo's anger.

……

However, it was said that the five people who held Jinwu Hu Mu Class, Dahonglu Han Rong, Shaofu Yin Xun, Wu Xun, who would be a master craftsman, and Wang Gui, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, got the edict and went to the outside of the pass to persuade them to surrender. Wu Xun, the master craftsman, and Wang Gui, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, went to the Tiger Prison to join the army; Han Rong and Shaofu Yin Xun went to the outside of Bishui Pass and acted separately.

The ruling Jinwu Hu Mu Ban is the brother-in-law of Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi, and the eight chefs are Shao and Du Shang, Zhang Miao, Wang Kao, Liu Ru, Qin Zhou, Fan Xiang, and Wang Zhang.

Not long after Hu Muban, Wu Xun, and Wang Gui entered the coalition camp, Yuan Shao ordered Wang Kuang to take down the three of them and kill the three of them.

That night, Wang Kuang asked the three of them to pretend to be his own soldiers and take them out of the camp, but he wanted to let the three go.

"Brother, if you let me go, will you be punished by Yuan Shao?"

Wang Kuang waved his hand and laughed at himself: "Since the death of the child Wuji, I have understood that the so-called courting Dong is just for my own fame and fortune. All the princes are selfish, and the matter of begging for Dong is far away, but it is ridiculous that I used to be wishful thinking, and I will eventually have this result. The child I have killed has died, how can I let your mother class follow in your footsteps. My Wang Kuang is also too guarded, although Yuan Shao is the leader of the alliance, he has no right to punish me, you leave, I am fine. ”

"In this way, my mother has thanked my brother, and the grace of my life will be remembered in my heart!"

After Hu Muban, Wu Xun and Wang Gui bowed their hands to thank Wang Kuang, they hurried away.

"The leader of this alliance has been waiting for a long time, Gongjie, why are you late?"

However, at this moment, as the words fell, Yuan Shao walked out of the shadows. Behind him, there were more than a dozen cronies and guards, all holding sharp blades and looking at Wang Kuang and the four.

"Alliance leader, why are you here?"

Wang Kuang was shocked and asked in a lost voice.

"Haha!"

Yuan Shao laughed loudly, his eyes swept to Hu Muban, Wu Xun and Wang Gui, and finally stopped on Wang Kuang, and said lightly: "The lord of this alliance, you have a forgiving heart, and you will not kill these three thieves. Therefore I ordered the soldiers to keep watch, and when you and the three thieves left the camp, they waited here. ”

"Alliance leader, the three of them are all forced by thieves, why should the alliance leader force him?"

"Gongjie, you are a woman's kindness!"

Yuan Shao shouted loudly, his eyes were full of grief and indignation, and he said angrily: "My uncle's family is innocent, but they were killed by Dong Zhuo's traitors. If the three of them are compelled by thieves, why should they not surrender to me, but be willing to be the messengers of the rebels, and persuade us to surrender? ”

"Alliance Leader..."

Wang Kuang still had to persuade, but Hu Muban, Wu Xun and Wang Gui took a step forward. Hu Muban looked at Wang Kuang and said lightly: "Brother, I came to persuade you to surrender this time, and I knew that there would be such a disaster. Dong Zhuo ordered me to come here, but I just wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone. I have two sons in my family, and when I die, I hope that my brother will take care of me. ”

After speaking, Hu Muban, Wu Xun and Wang Gui pulled out the accessories on their waists and wanted to assassinate Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao's cronies were already in their hands, and the three of them were killed after only a few steps. Wang Kuang looked at Yuan Shao angrily, but he was speechless for a while because of anger.

"Gongjie, tomorrow I will inform everyone that Gongjie is for the righteousness of the world, the righteousness of killing relatives and killing thieves. Let everyone learn the high righteousness of the public festival, hahaha!"

Yuan Shao laughed loudly and strode away with a proud face, leaving Wang Kuang alone to look up to the sky and cry.

And outside Bishui Pass, Yuan Shu has also taken down Han Rong and Yin Xun. The previous time he released Li Xuan, and then another messenger came, Yuan Shu was suddenly furious, Dong Zhuo thought that he didn't dare to kill, so he came to humiliate him again and again. This time, he didn't listen to Yan Xiang's words and insisted on killing the two.

However, many people advised Yuan Shu not to kill Han Rong, Han Rong is extremely famous, if he is killed, the people of the world will rise up and attack Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu Even if he is the son of the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes, he will not be able to go against the people of the world.

Therefore, in the end, Yuan Shu only killed Yin Xun and asked Han Rong to go back and report to Dong Zhuo.

"Wow wow, wow, I'm angry!"

When Dong Zhuo saw the embarrassed Han Rong coming back, he was immediately furious. Although Dong Zhuo wanted to kill people by borrowing a knife to persuade these five people to surrender, the princes didn't give him any face, and they would kill him if they said they would, how could he not be angry?

"Feng Xianwu'er, tomorrow I will lead the army out of the customs to fight, and I vow to kill all these thieves. ”

"Whoa!"
