When the bright moon was in the sky, the bright silver light hung down, Yuan Yao and Yuan Shu sat opposite each other in the courtyard, and there were several wine bottles placed at random on the table in front of them.

"Yao'er, you've really grown up."

Looking at Yuan Yao, who had an extraordinary bearing and a warm face in front of him, Yuan Shu couldn't help but sigh like this.

"Father!" Yuan Yao looked at his cheap father and said softly: "The child is still very young, there are still many places to learn, and the father needs to lead the child forward." “

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.

Yuan Yao is not a saint, he is just an ordinary person with seven emotions and six desires. When he came to this world, Yuan Yao was actually alone, and no one could believe it, but now that a few years have passed, Yuan Yao has regarded Yuan Shu as his own family, and he really regards him as his father, and the two sisters Yuan Yin and Yuan Rong are also regarded as relatives by Yuan Yao.

The relatives mentioned here are not a noun, nor are they the kind of relatives recognized from the bottom of the heart.

"Yao'er, you don't have to be like this, what you have done in the past few years is in the eyes of your father, in the past few years, you have fought in the north and south, and you have made great achievements, and I heard that Huang Yi made papermaking and printing technology is also because of your support behind you. Let me ask the princes of the world, whose heirs are as good as you, and in this regard, who dares to compare with my Yuan Shu?"

"Father!" Looking at Yuan Shu's excited expression, Yuan Yao wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Yao'er!" Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Yao at this moment and said, "The plan you said is very good, I have also discussed it with Zixuan and others, and it is also a good choice to take Yangzhou first at this time, which can allow us to avoid the chaos in the north and concentrate on development." However, although the direction of attacking Yangzhou in the south has been decided, the specific way to fight has not yet been determined, do you have any ideas?"

Yuan Yao knew that Yuan Shu was testing himself, but he believed in Yuan Shu, and the past few years of getting along made Yuan Yao know that Yuan Shu cared for himself very much, and today's verbal temptation is not to test others, but to test his own ability?

Yuan Yao calmed down at this moment and said softly: "Father, the child thinks that the target of our southward trip this time is not Yangzhou, but Sun Jian."

"Sun Jian?" Yuan Shu's eyes had a hint of doubt in his eyes, looked at Yuan Yao, and said, "Tell me about it!"

"Yes, father." Yuan Yao said in a deep voice at this moment: "Sun Jian is a fierce tiger, quite prestigious in the land of Jiangdong, although he was defeated in Xuzhou last time and returned to Yangzhou, but the foundation has not been damaged, and now he is entrenched in Jiangdong, and his strength is not weak." And this person has the heirloom jade seal in his hand, if he realizes the secret of the heirloom jade seal, I am afraid that this person's strength will improve by leaps and bounds, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time. “

"Heirloom Jade Seal!" When Yuan Yao mentioned the jade seal of the country, a ray of essence erupted in Yuan Shu's eyes. The jade seal of the country, which is one of several immortal artifacts that have been recorded, is said to have the ability to stabilize the hearts of the people. It's a pity that after Guangwu, no emperor of the Han Dynasty has been able to comprehend the mystery of the jade seal, otherwise with a fairy weapon in hand, the Han Dynasty would not have fallen into the current situation.

Yuan Shu has no sentimentality about the decline of the Han Dynasty, he is a son of a family, believing in the family and the country, the family in front and the country in the back, and he does not have much sense of belonging to the country. Even if the Han is gone, the Runan Yuan family can survive, so what's there to be sad about.

Even Yuan Shu wished that the Great Han would perish as soon as possible, so that he might be able to sit in that position in his lifetime. Of course, this is the ambition in Yuan Shu's heart, and he dare not say that he is before the world.

"Yao'er, then what do you think we should do with Sun Jian's subordinates?"

Faced with Yuan Shu's question, Yuan Yao said: "Father, Haier thinks we can attack in two ways."

"Two-way attack?" Yuan Yao had a curious look on his face, and said, "Why do you attack in two ways, you can tell me."

Yuan Yao said: "Father, Sun Jian's foundation is in the land of Jiangdong, and his influence is all over Yangzhou and Jiangxia in Jingzhou, and the child thinks that we can send troops from Xuzhou and Jingzhou together to attack Sun Jian. “

"Go on!" Yuan Shu listened to Yuan Yao's words and bowed slightly.

"Xuzhou's soldiers and horses entered Yangzhou from Guangling County, and the goal was to take Sun Jian's old nest Wu County, which is where Sun Jian's foundation is located, Sun Jian will inevitably concentrate most of his troops to defend, and the defense in other directions will inevitably be much weaker at that time. At this time, Jingzhou sent troops to Jiangxia all the way, first took Jiangxia, and then used Jiangxia as a springboard to attack Yangzhou, forming a joint encirclement with Xuzhou all the way to Sun Jian's lair. As long as our army can enter Yangzhou, these families don't need us to do anything, they will be attached to it, because we are the Yuan family of Runan of the fourth and third princes. “

Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Yao, his face was full of excitement, and continued to ask: "Yao'er, although it is very important to attack Yangzhou, Xuzhou cannot give up, if the father personally attacks Yangzhou, who do you think can sit in Xuzhou and confront Mizhu Wu Anguo?"

"Ji Ling or Gao Cang, just leave one of the two." After listening to Yuan Shu's question, Yuan Yao gave his own answer without thinking.

"Oh, why?"

"Xuzhou is an important place, and the people who stay in the town must be enough to deter the three armies, and now in the land of Xuzhou, the highest strength under his father is General Xu Chu, but he needs to protect his father's safety, and the next is General Gao Cang and General Ji Ling, no matter who is left, it is enough to guard Xuzhou and keep Xuzhou from losing."

Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Yao at this time, and suddenly laughed, and said, "God has given me such a good son as Yuan Shu, what am I not satisfied with?"

Yuan Shu talked with Yuan Yao for a long time that night, and did not put Yuan Yao back until midnight, and on the second day, Yuan Shu summoned many civil and military officers under his command to discuss how to deal with Sun Jian in Yangzhou. In the end, Yuan Shu asked Yuan Yao to put forward the plan he told him, and at the same time adopted this plan and finally decided that Gao Cang, Chen Deng, Zang Hong, and Zhao Yan would stay in Xuzhou, and he personally took many other civil and military generals except Yuan Yao's men to the south, first reorganized his troops in Guangling, and was ready to enter Yangzhou at any time.

At the same time, Yuan Shu also asked Yuan Yao to return to Runan immediately, and bring several important ministers who remained in Runan, such as Huang Zhong, Liu Ye and others, to lead the troops south, and join Xun Yan, Pan Feng and others in Jingzhou to prepare for the offensive against Jiangxia.

From this arrangement, many civil and military forces under Yuan Shu also saw how much Yuan Shu attached importance to Yuan Yao.
