Chapter 846: The Obsession of the Past
Standing on the stage with a sword in hand. Yuan Shao looked at the united civil and military forces in the hall, his face was majestic, his demeanor was calm, and his eyes were full of incomparable confidence and firmness.
Highway, I won't lose to you. This Yuan family, this world, will eventually belong to me Yuan Benchu!
......
"Yes, this is the Yuan Benchu I know." Looking at the sharp-tongued war book in his hand, Yuan Shu was not angry but happy, full of relief. If Yuan Benchu really admitted to this and continued to pretend to be a turtle, Yuan Shu would be disappointed. As the old enemy and goal of Yuan Shu (predecessor) in his life, if he does not have such a kingly spirit, it is an insult to Yuan Shu himself.
"My Great Zhao Tianzi invited His Majesty to hunt Julu in January, but I don't know if His Majesty Da Chu dares to fight?" The envoy sent by Yuan Shao to deliver the war letter asked without humility or arrogance.
"Naturally. Since Yuan Benchu has already set the time and battlefield, then do as he says, I don't care. Anyway, it was me who won in the end. You go back and tell Yuan Benchu that I have reserved a place for him in the farm outside Jinling City, and Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande have been waiting for him in Jinling for a long time. After this battle, I guess he doesn't want to see each other again, and I hope he thinks about how to get along with these two in the future. Yuan Shu casually put the war book on the table, and said in a natural tone to the envoy. There was no pretentiousness in his demeanor, and everything seemed to be taken for granted.
"You!" Seeing that Yuan Shu's attitude was so contemptuous, the envoys of Da Zhao looked at each other angrily, wanting to fight back with words.
How did Yuan Shu bother to pay attention to it, and waved his hand casually: "Okay, there is no need to say more superfluous nonsense, I am too lazy to listen, and I am too lazy to argue with you." You go back, if you have any cruel words, wait until the big war, and let Yuan Benchu talk to me by himself. β
The guards on both sides stepped forward directly and made a gesture of please. The envoy of Da Zhao turned pale and red for a while, and when he saw Yuan Shu's eyes slightly closed, the corners of his mouth smiling, and he looked careless, he only felt that he had punched the cotton with all his strength, and his heart was full of anger and powerlessness. The greatest contempt for people is not ridicule, but ignorance, which is what Yuan Shu is like today. Ignoring these provocative words at all shows Yuan Shu's confidence in this battle.
After the envoy was asked to leave, Jia Xu, who was pretending to be asleep on the side, slowly opened his eyes, looked at Yuan Shu who was full of joy above, and smiled: "It seems that Your Majesty is in a very good mood!" β
"Yes! Yuan Benchu did not disappoint me. My obsession back then is finally about to be unraveled. Yuan Shu seemed to be about to be freed, and said with a slight sigh of relief.
According to his body, he bears his cause. Since crossing over to become Yuan Shu, although he has not been greatly affected by his predecessor, the deepest obsession of Yuan Shu has always been pressed on his heart.
Defeat Yuan Benchu and prove his ability as the concubine of the Yuan family.
This can almost be said to be the obsession of Yuan Shu's life.
Jia Xu knew Yuan Shu's current state well. The entanglement between the two brothers of the Yuan family is almost a well-known thing in the family, and the former Yuan Shao has always been stronger than Yuan Shu, stronger than the latter in all aspects, and the latter is also like an enemy who wants to compete with the former. The love and killing and grievances between this pair of brothers have long become a good story and a joke and gossip among the families.
However, in the past, Yuan Shao played the absolute protagonist, and Yuan Shu was the villain who was not self-sufficient. But now, when the feud between the brothers has spread to the whole world, everything has been reversed.
Now it is Yuan Shu who has an absolute advantage, and Yuan Shao is now the one who has been driven to a dead end.
Although Yuan Shu after crossing is no longer the slightly naΓ―ve road ghost he once was, he still has an indelible obsession with Yuan Shao. Jia Xu and other strategists who are good at observing words and emotions can clearly feel that when Yuan Shao is mentioned, Yuan Shu's emotions will unconsciously be a little more excited than usual. Maybe Yuan Shu didn't notice this when he was in it, but Jia Xu and the others felt it clearly.
This is also the reason why Jia Xu and others instigated Yuan Shu to fight Yuan Shao head-on this time, and directly sent more than 400,000 elite soldiers of Great Chu.
If it is against Cao Cao and Liu Bei, an army of 300,000 is enough. Because the combat strength of Yuan Shujun's soldiers can never be compared with other princes, adequate nutrition, hard training, perfect security, high morale, and sophisticated weapons, these together, if they can't even do it with one enemy and two, then the Great Chu Martial Arts can commit suicide collectively.
What's more, in such a large-scale battle, the side with elite soldiers is obviously more advantageous. After all, there are so many people who can be handed over in a short time, and the vast majority of the remaining soldiers can only wait except for waving the flag and shouting. In this case, it is natural that the side with the elite soldiers is more advantageous.
The reason why Jia Xu and others let Yuan Shu lead more than 400,000 elite royal drivers to march in person this time was to completely shatter Yuan Shu's obsession. Directly crush Yuan Shao's army to completely destroy the shadow that Yuan Shao created for Yuan Shu.
The reason why today's Great Chu is so powerful is that the core and most important is the emperor Yuan Shu. Therefore, in the hearts of Jia Xu and others, Yuan Shu itself is the top priority, and there must be no problems no matter what. As long as Yuan Shu can stabilize, the future of Da Chu will definitely be a smooth road. But if something happens to Yuan Shu, Dong Zhuo's lessons from the past are in front of him. Li Ru prepared such a good hand of cards to let the play sparsely, and the four two with two kings came up directly and threw it away.
A lesson from the past!
Jia Xu, Guo Jia and the others glanced at each other, and they all saw the worry and determination in each other's eyes. In this battle, it is absolutely necessary to directly beat Yuan Shao into a daze, so that he has no power to fight back, and completely solve the little pimple in Yuan Shu's heart.
Poor Yuan Shao now knows that he has been targeted by Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others, and in this battle, he is facing a serious Chu State. Facing the Chu army, which was not aimed at victory from the beginning, but with the purpose of crushing.
"Since Yuan Benchu has already issued a war letter, then Wen Yuan's side will withdraw, and there is no point in harassing him. I ordered all the four armies to gather in Julu, and I will personally lead the army from Jinling to Huihe a week later. Yuan Shu ordered.
"No!" Guo Jia nodded.
"Bo Fu and Zilong?" Xun Yuhu's way.
Yuan Shu pondered for a moment and said, "Let them each lead 10,000 elite horsemen and hide in the Changshan area." There is no need to go to war, but if things do change, then this team can also be called a lifesaver for us. β
When Jia Xu and the others heard this, they nodded secretly in their hearts. Sure enough, Your Majesty is still Your Majesty, and you have always acted so safely (obscenely). Even in this case, there is still no arrogance and complacency, and it is still a matter of worrying about victory and defeat. In this way, they are completely relieved.
Yuan Shu was indeed extremely cautious at this time. Several large-scale battles in the late Han Dynasty were basically won by less and stronger by the weak, and I don't know if it was a characteristic of this era. He didn't want to touch this mold, so it was better to be cautious, in case the boat capsized, it wouldn't be fun.
