Yanzhou, Yongqiu.

Yongqiu, located in Chenliu County, Yanzhou County, is an ancient historical and cultural city. During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Zhi and Cao Pi failed to compete for the throne, and after Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, Cao Zhi was named the king of Yongqiu, and his fief was in this Yongqiu.

"Idiots, all idiots!"

At this moment, there was a great roar in the Yongqiu County Yazhong!

In the bright hall, a handsome man was furious.

The man is wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, which is carved and embroidered with various delicate patterns, which looks very beautiful and beautiful. The man's slanted eyes and pointed nose give people an extremely gloomy feeling.

If someone observes carefully, the man's appearance is a little similar to the famous Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao!

He is Yuan Shao's brother, the left general Yang Zhai Marquis Yuan Shu!

Really counted, he is the half-brother of Yuan Shao! Both of them are the sons of Yuan Feng, but the difference is that Yuan Shu is a son-in-law, while Yuan Shao is just a concubine! Later, Yuan Shao passed on to his uncle Yuan Cheng, so Yuan Shu was only called Yuan Shao's cousin in the annals.

Compared with his brother Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is not bad now, after all, there is the name of Yuan's sister-in-law on his head, and his resources are also huge.

If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu join forces, most of the world may be in the hands of these two brothers.

It's a pity that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have always been at odds. Now don't talk about joining forces, the two are turning against each other! They all regard each other as thieves! Yuan Shu has always despised Yuan Shao, who was born as a concubine, and was angry that Yuan Shao had taken away many of Yuan's resources. Many celebrities defected to Yuan Shao, but did not defect to him. In Gongsun Zhan's letters, Yuan Shao was reprimanded as not being the son of the Yuan family. is even more united with Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian, forcing Yuan Shao! In order to defeat Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu decided to first kill one of Yuan Shao's right-hand allies, Cao Cao of Yanzhou.

But obviously, don't look at Cao Cao is still weak now, but he also beat Yuan Shu!

In the first battle of Kuangting, Yuan Shu united with the Yanzhou assassin Shi Jinshang, who was appointed by the imperial court, and the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro, the Huns Yu Fuluo and others fought with Cao Cao! As a result, he was defeated and returned, and Yuan Shu retreated to this Yongqiu.

This is the scene where Yuan Shu roars.

Yuan Shu was furious, and his subordinates were also silent.

In fact, experiencing a big defeat also frustrated their confidence! Now in the face of Yuan Shu's angry shouting, what else is there to argue?

Fortunately, Yuan Shu is this temper, and after scolding him, he scolded Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and his subordinates all over again, his anger disappeared a lot, and his tone calmed down, "Are you all dumb?" What should we do now? ”

Changshi Yang Hong stood up, "The army is newly defeated, and the soldiers have no heart to fight!" If it weren't for the lord's fearlessness and gathering the remnants, I'm afraid the army would have collapsed...! Now, it is better to return to Shouchun and regain strength. ”

Yang Hong's words are very level.

First praised Yuan Shu, if it weren't for Yuan Shu, the army would have collapsed! This is a blessing in disguise! And then he proposed a way, retire from the army! A big defeat is not enough for Yuan Shu to be defeated! After all, his Yuan Shu's nest is in Yangzhou, Yuzhou.

"Well, that's not bad......"

Yuan Shu nodded slightly.

This big defeat made him understand that this Cao Cao is really not a bone to gnaw! Now that the morale is gone, it is right to return to Shouchun and regroup.

However, he was a little unwilling to withdraw from the army like this! When he first joined the army, he was high-spirited and underestimated that Cao Cao! thinks that Cao Cao is just a younger brother of Yuan Shao, and he Yuan Shu personally conquered and defeated a Cao Cao, isn't it more than enough? But reality, but give a resounding slap in the face.

In the battle of Kuangting, the defeat was really miserable!

He Yuan Shu has never been so humiliated! Let Cao Jun chase after him, if it weren't for the general under his command, Ji Ling, who was desperately guarding, I'm afraid his life would be gone.

"Kuangting is defeated, I'm afraid that Cao Cao has gained a firm foothold in Yanzhou! I'm going to defeat him while he's not on his feet, it's unlikely......"

Yuan Shu sighed lightly, "If Cao Cao becomes stronger, he will be a fierce opponent......"

"Big brother, I heard that the state was obtained by Lu Bu, why not form an alliance with him to contain Yuan Shao and Cao Cao?"

Another admonished.

Yuan Shu saw that the person who admonished him was his younger brother Yuan Yin, and his face instantly turned happy.

"Zi Cheng's words are very good! That Lu Bu is now in Bingzhou, and he can clamp down on that concubine and Cao Cao! ”

In Yuan Shu's eyes, Lu Bu's background was humble and he was not taken seriously. But now, Yuan Shu has no choice, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and Liu Biao are allies, and their momentum is too great!

Now his most effective general, Sun Jian, was killed by Liu Biao, Gongsun Zan was beaten by Yuan Shao, and Tao Qian was also defeated by Cao Cao. He led the army to conquer Cao Cao, but he was also defeated! The contest between these two major alliances can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye!

In such a situation, Yuan Shu also united all forces to resist the alliance of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Biao.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

At this point, Yuan Shu has done an extremely good job. not only befriended Gongsun Zhan, but Tao Qian and the two were allies. It also united the Black Mountain Army, which had a grudge against Yuan Shao, as well as the Xiongnu Yu Fuluo, and the Yanzhou Assassin Shi Jinshang, to attack Cao Cao.

It's just that Cao Cao is a little too powerful,

No, it should be said that they are too weak.

However, Kuangting's defeat in the first battle did not affect Yuan Shu's diplomatic methods.

Now, if Lu Bu, who has merged states, is also drawn into his camp, then it will greatly increase the strength of their camp! will not be quickly destroyed by Yuan Shao and others.

"Then who can serve as an envoy and send an envoy to annex the state?"

Yuan Shu glanced at the ministers under his command.

Yang Hong stood up and advised, "The matter of sending envoys to merge states is extremely important!" If you are not an ordinary person, you can't let it go! If you want to convince Na Lu Bu, the lord must show the greatest sincerity! ”

"Of course, since I'm allied with it! It will definitely be full of sincerity! ”

Yuan Shu snorted lightly, "I'm not like that concubine." ”

In Yuan Shu's body, there is a strong chivalrous atmosphere! In other words, it is a characteristic that most of the rich children of that era have, buddy righteousness. Therefore, Yuan's talent is insufficient, but there are still a lot of civil and military companions under his command.

After pondering carefully for a moment, Yuan Shu suddenly pointed his hand, "Zicheng, this matter of envoy and state, you should go!" ”

"Huh?"

Yuan Yin was stunned.

He proposed to form an alliance with Lu Bu, but he didn't want to be an envoy.

But Yuan Shu seemed to identify him, "Zicheng, you will go on a trip!" Only if you go, then Lu Bu will know my sincerity! ”

Yuan Yin, in Yuan Shu's eyes, is extremely heavy.

Let Yuan Yin go to the state and merge the state, not only because Yuan Yin is deeply trusted by Yuan Shu, but also because Yuan Yin is a child of the Yuan family!

Letting Yuan Yin send an envoy is to show Lu Bu his attitude towards Yuan Shu! Even the children of his Yuan family have gone, are you still afraid that they will fool you? You must know how big the face of the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes is! If there is an alliance, how can there be a betrayal of the alliance?
