In the end, the two sides negotiated the price to 500 horses, 100,000 stones of grain and grass, and 20 warships.

After sending Sun Qian away, Sun Ce's mood was particularly comfortable, he could get so many benefits without moving a single soldier, and the position of a general of the chariot cavalry was very attractive to a general, although the Han family was weak, being able to become a general of the chariot cavalry was enough to reflect the strength of Jiangdong's military strength.

"My lord, now that the envoy from Jingzhou has been sent away, the envoy from Cao Jun will arrive soon." Zhou Yu said with a smile.

Sun Ce nodded with satisfaction, and said that the arrival of the envoy of Cao Jun was just to let the envoy of Jingzhou relax.

"Lord, if Cao's army is strong and Jingzhou is broken, the lord can send troops to seize Jiangxia when Jingzhou is in turmoil, and then pacify the four counties of Jingnan, if this happens, the lord can occupy the land of the five counties in Jingzhou, and it is natural to fight against Cao Cao." Zhou Yu said in a low voice.

Sun Ce nodded thoughtfully, whether it is Liu Bei or Cao Cao, as long as they can get enough benefits from them, the Jiangdong Army will take action, as for the rhetoric between Jingzhou and Jingzhou, presumably Jingzhou can also understand one or two, in troubled times, strength is the most important, otherwise, Lu Bu was a rebel of the Han Dynasty before, why has he become a general of the Han Dynasty now, and it is also the people of Jingzhou who respectfully send envoys to Bingzhou, this is the benefit of strength.

Compared with Lu Bu, Jiangdong is much weaker in strength, but Sun Ce is confident that Jiangdong will further grow in the troubled times.

As Zhou Yu guessed, only two days after the envoy of Jingzhou left, Cao Cao's envoy came to Jiangdong and jointly attacked Jingzhou with Jiangdong.

Wancheng, Cao Cao learned of Sun Ce's actions and sneered: "It seems that Sun Bofu wants to seize Jingzhou from Benhou's hands." ”

"The lord should not underestimate the Jiangdong army, Sun Ce is known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, extremely brave, and has won the hearts of the people in Jiangdong, how can he have the heart to invade Xuzhou, maybe he will attack Shouchun and contain the strength of the army." Cheng Yu said.

"No matter what kind of character Sun Ce is, if you want to get benefits from Ben Hou, it depends on whether he has the ability." Cao Cao sneered.

"Order the defenders of Shouchun to pay close attention to the movements of the Jiangdong Army, and Guangling must not relax its vigilance." Cao Cao said.

Let's say that after Lu Bu attacked Dongping for a few days, Yuan Shao did not have the initial confidence, Qingzhou is its foundation, if Qingzhou is lost, it means that tens of thousands of troops have no way to retreat, what kind of fate will happen in such a situation, Yuan Shao is very clear.

"Yuantu, Qingzhou is in danger, I don't know if Yuantu can have a countermeasure?" Yuan Shao set his sights on Feng Ji, no matter what kind of person Feng Ji was in the eyes of Qingzhou officials, he still trusted him Yuan Shao.

Feng Ji said: "My lord, Linzi City is high and deep, and there are less than 10,000 soldiers and horses under Lu Bu's command, but there are 20,000 defenders in the city. ”

In the face of Feng Ji's relief, Yuan Shao was not at ease, since Lu Bu was able to attack Qingzhou, it showed that he was strong enough, as expected, the officials of the rest of the counties may have secretly taken refuge in Lu Bu, just waiting for Linzi to be occupied by Lu Bu.

In the face of a life-and-death crisis, Lu Bu's treatment of the family is nothing in the hands of these officials, as long as the strength of the family is still there, there is still a chance to rise, once he dies, it means that all opportunities are lost.

"How's the investigation going?" Yuan Shao asked suddenly.

"My lord, General Ju Yi refuses to speak." Feng Ji was happy in his heart, Yuan Shao asked about the matter of the fine work at this time, obviously because he was jealous of Ju Yi.

Guo Tu stepped forward and said: "Lord, my subordinates think that when the leader returns to Qingzhou, as long as the lord returns to Qingzhou, relying on Qingzhou, he will definitely be able to repel Lu Bu, although Jizhou is rich, the plain is occupied by Lu Bu, if Lu Bu will be pacified and completely stabilized, it will be extremely unfavorable for our army." ”

Feng Ji glanced at Guo Tu meaningfully, just now his conversation with Yuan Shao can be said to have reached a critical time, he was confident that Yuan Shao would let go of his mouth and execute Ju Yi, but he didn't expect Guo Tu to help Ju Yi at such a critical moment.

Yuan Shao seemed to be distracted by Guo Tu's words, and said after a moment of silence: "The matter of withdrawing troops is very important, there are 50,000 enemy troops outside the city, and although our army has more than 40,000 people, it is extremely difficult to withdraw Qinghe to Qingzhou. ”

Guo Tu didn't understand Yuan Shao's situation now, the situation in Qingzhou was worrying, the plain was occupied by Lu Bu, and there were enemy troops outside the city, and if he was not careful, he would fall into a situation from which he could not recover, and when he raised troops to attack Jizhou, what a favorable situation, but he did not expect to fall into the current situation, and the two crucial wars were all because of Lu Bu's salary at the bottom of the kettle, so that the army had to retreat, Huguan is so, and now Jizhou is like this.

"Lord, if our army retreats from Jizhou now, it will definitely suffer heavy losses, in the opinion of his subordinates, if he sticks to Qinghe and secretly contacts the family in Jizhou, Lu Bu sends troops to Jizhou is empty, if Jizhou rebels, Lu Bu will definitely not be interested in the war in Qingzhou, then our army can take advantage of the situation, and there is no possibility of victory." Feng Ji Dao.

Yuan Shao was extremely moved after hearing this, if he withdrew from Jizhou this time, it would mean that his efforts would come to naught again, this situation was not what Yuan Shao wanted to see, as a member of the Yuan family, with the name of the fourth world and the third duke, he was naturally unwilling to fail like this.

"The matter of contacting the Jizhou family is very important, Yuan Tu does his best, if he can seize Jizhou, Yuan Tu is the biggest hero." Yuan Shao's expression gradually became firm, "If you do something carefully, you must investigate it clearly, and Benhou will not let go of anyone who betrays you." ”

"Whoa." Feng Ji looked uplifted when he heard this.

Leaving the big tent of the Chinese army, Guo Tu's mood is at a low point, now Yuan Shao's situation is worrying, if he can't resolve the current crisis, years of hard work can only be in vain, judging from Cao Jun's movements, it is clear that he has reached a tacit understanding with Lu Bu, and the plan to rely on Cao Jun to contain Lu Bu can only be frustrated.

Different from Guo Tu's worries, after Feng Ji left, he immediately sent someone to contact the family in Jizhou, and he did not fall behind about the interrogation of Ju Yi, and Ju Yi never said a word in the face of the questioning of the person sent by Feng Ji, but his gratitude to Yuan Shao gradually melted a lot in this situation, he did a lot for Yuan Shao, but now he got such an end.
