Chapter 138: For the sake of the jade seal, the fight is not wronged

"Lord, since Sun Jian has returned to Jiangdong, why should I serve the Yuan clan again..."Riding a horse to Yan Shao's side, Guan Hai was a little puzzled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The general's words are wrong, Sun Wentai secretly hid the jade seal, how can I, as Han Chen, stay out of the matter, ignore it, go to recover it from now, and return the jade seal to the Son of Heaven in the future..."Zhao Yun, who was following him, couldn't help but retort when he heard this.

Now several generals around Yan Shao, except for Zhou Cang and Guan Hai, who are indifferent to the Han family, almost all of the rest have some loyalty to the Han family, especially Zhao Yun and Tai Shici.

This time to chase Sun Jian, of course, it was impossible to bring all the soldiers and horses, and in the end, Yan Shao only brought a thousand daring troops. And in order to avoid any accidents for the soldiers and horses left behind, Yan Shao also left Tai Shici, who was the general, as well as Zhou Cang and Wu Anguo, and only brought Guan Hai, Sun Guan, and Zhao Yun.

He knew very well that the disintegration of the coalition army began with Sun Jian's separation...

Sun Jian's return to Jiangdong also meant that Yuan Shao's control over the coalition forces was weakening, and it was impossible for Jizhou to continue to provide grain and grass for the coalition forces, so it was inevitable that they would fall apart.

If you don't leave a person who is in charge enough, it is difficult to say that the soldiers and horses left behind will not be targeted by other princes. However, Yan Shao has a lot of brave generals under his command, but Zhou Cang, Guan Hai and Wu Anguo only have the courage of a horseman, although Sun Guan has a general, let him be in charge of Yan Shao but a little uneasy, the only one who can really be called a general, can lead an army alone is Tai Shici and Zhao Yun.

It's just that Zhao Yun's qualifications in the army are too shallow, even if his bravery has long been famous all over the world, but let him lead an army alone, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the public, so this burden can only be handed over to Tai Shici alone.

"What Zilong said is very true, how can jade seals and even treasures be hidden by others without permission, how is this different from rebellion? However, Sun Wentai has always been loyal and righteous, and he has repeatedly made military exploits in the previous crusade against Dong Thief, this time it may be just a moment of confusion, and we should not use the sword soldiers to catch up, if we can persuade him to wake up with good words, it is naturally the best..."Yan Shao nodded in agreement with Zhao Yun's opinion.

In fact, he didn't mind the jade seal at all, the so-called jade seal was just a beautiful stone. Just like Yuan Shuna and others, even if they have a jade seal, what can they do? In the end, it was not vomiting blood and dying. On the contrary, it was Sun Ce, who won the huge Jiangdong with the soldiers and horses exchanged for the jade seal at the age of a weak crown, and since then he has dominated the southeast, and his mind and bearing are by no means inferior to several other heroes in the world. Therefore, the jade seal is certainly the icing on the cake, but without it, it may not be possible to achieve the cause of the king, especially in the case of its own hegemony, having this thing is self-inflicted.

This time, Yan Shao went south, the purpose was not the jade seal at all, not even Sun Jian, but something else...

However, these Yan Shao will not say it to Zhao Yun and others, at least in their eyes at this time, Yan Shao is still a young hero loyal to the Han family, and he does not plan to change this image, at least in the early days of the troubled times, it is still very beneficial to have the skin of a loyal minister of the Han family, especially to attract those heroes who still have hope for the Han family...

"Lord, what if Sun Wentai is obsessed..."Sun Guan said with some worry.

He didn't think that the man known as the Jiangdong Tiger would call out the jade seal so easily. I don't think that when such a man hides the jade seal, it is just for the reason that he is dizzy for a while.

If they catch up in the end, the other party is unwilling to return the jade seal, but they are afraid that they will meet each other in the end.

Considering that this time they only took more than a thousand horses to chase after them, it was still somewhat unsafe, even if Sun Guan was very confident in the Dare First Army under his command, he did not dare to underestimate the man who was called the Jiangdong Tiger.

However, he also knew the importance of the jade seal and knew what it symbolized, so he did not object to Yan Shao's order.

"Peace of mind...", as if sensing the uneasiness of his subordinates, Yan Shao smiled and shook his head, his expression was very relaxed. Even if I catch up, I'm just persuading, if Sun Jian is unwilling to return the jade seal, what do you think Yuan Shao wrote to Liu Biao for before? ”

Anyway, he didn't care about the jade seal or anything, and he didn't even think about really trying to persuade Sun Jian, he just wanted to find a reason to go south...

The reason is also very simple, with the disintegration of the coalition forces, the situation of division will also be formed, and if this opportunity is missed, Yan Shao will no longer be able to safely operate in various places in the future.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Dividing Lineβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Lord, just let Yan Shao chase after Sun Jian..."Sun Jian fled back to Jiangdong, and Yan Shao was ordered to chase after him, and the princes naturally broke up unhappily and returned to their own camps.

If the previous coalition forces still had some meaning of working together, then now...

But at this time, I'm afraid that no one cares about this...

Accompanying Yuan Shao, as one of his most important advisers at the moment, Feng Ji had to raise his doubts. "That Yan Shao is also a hero in the world, he is dominant in Qingzhou, this time he pursued Sun Jian, if he won the jade seal, I am afraid that he may not return it to the alliance leader..."

It's no wonder that Feng Ji thinks so, after all, it's a jade seal...

The jade seal of the country...

The jade seal of the country, also known as the "national seal" and "national treasure", is the seal of the Qin Prime Minister Li Si on the order of Qin Shi Huang and engraved by the use of He's bi, and later passed down to the emperors of China. Its square circle is four inches, on the New York hand over five dragons, the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", in order to serve as a token of "imperial power granted by heaven, orthodox and legitimate".

After the Qin Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties took this seal as a symbol, and they were like rare treasures, and they were also important weapons of the country. If you get it, it symbolizes that it is "ordered by the sky", and if you lose it, it shows that its "qi has been exhausted". Those who ascend to the throne without this seal are ridiculed as "white emperors", which appear to be lacking in confidence and are despised by the world.

The generations who want to seek great treasures in the past generations have fought for me, causing the jade seal of the country to change its owner repeatedly, and it has been in Chixian County, Shenzhou for more than 2,000 years, flickering and flickering, and finally disappeared.

The reason why Yuan Shu had the ambition to be the emperor was because he thought very highly of himself, but because his strength at that time was indeed one of the strongest among the Kwantung princes, and the third was this heirloom jade seal.

It is precisely because of the heirloom jade seal in his hand that he feels that the destiny of heaven belongs to him...

And in the face of the heirloom jade seal, how many people can resist the temptation?

If it weren't for Yan Shao's knowledge that this thing was a scourge before its strength was unstable, I was afraid that it would have moved a little bit of thoughtβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” after all, this thing had disappeared for a long time in the era that Yan Shao had crossed, and no matter who it was, it would have a little thought.

However, after listening to Feng Ji's words, Yuan Shao shook his head and smiled. "But you are too worried, that Yan Fuxian only brought more than a thousand horsemen left and right, what can he do, and besides, he is now under the jurisdiction of a county in Beihai, if he takes the jade seal for himself, wouldn't it be his own trouble? Fu Xian is also a smart person, and he would not do such a stupid thing..."

It is indeed a truth, the heirloom jade seal is a good treasure, and the value cannot be described as wealth at all, but it also requires strength to have. If this kind of thing falls into the hands of powerful people, it can have the effect of icing on the cake, but if it falls into the hands of people who do not have strength, that is, the husband is not guilty and is guilty.

Sun Ce would dedicate this thing to Yuan Shu, which was not a wise choice...

After listening to Yuan Shao's words, he bowed to him...

At least for people at this time, Yuan Shao did show a lot of demeanor, which made many heroes impressed. Coupled with the status of the fourth and third dukes, this is also because Yuan Shao's ability is not as good as Cao Cao's, but his command is not weaker than the other party.

"It's just that maybe Yan Shao won't be so unwise, but what about Liu Biao..." That Liu Biao is a relative of the Han family, and he has the land of Jingzhou, and his strength is strong, if he is forced by Dong Zhuo today, his prestige will be greatly lost, it is difficult to say whether this person will have some ambition..."

You must know that at this time, Liu Biao is the assassin of Jingzhou, although Jingzhou is not stable, but at least seven of the eight counties have been won, and the strength is also very strong among the princes, this time the princes will ally Liu Biao did not send people, but no one will underestimate his strength...

"This..."Listening to Xu You's words, Yuan Shao also groaned, and said after half a sound. What do you think? ”

"Lord, now that the princes' alliance has obviously failed, it is useless to continue to stay, it is better to return to Hebei as soon as possible and plot great things..."

This time, Xu Yu did not object, and he was also reconsidered.

In fact, as early as the crusade against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao once said such things to Cao Cao. "If things don't go well, where can we keep them?" Cao Cao asked rhetorically: "What does the foot mean?" Yuan Shao replied: "I am based on the Yellow River in the south, Yan and Dai in the north, and I have both Karasuma and Xianbei, and then fight for the world in the south, so I may be able to succeed!" Yuan Shao's so-called south is based on the Yellow River, and the north is Shouyan and Dai, and the vast area in the middle is Jizhou, which is rich in products and has a large population.

Seeing that the two strategists under him agreed with this proposal, Yuan Shao was also a little moved.

After all, Jizhou is a large state at this time, if it can occupy such a place, then the achievement of great things is just around the corner, but...

"Han Fu is there..."

Anyway, after all, Han Fu is the state pastor of Jizhou, and his troops are very strong, and even if he has a great name, or even the leader of the coalition army, he is actually just a county guard, and his troops are not counted as a lot.

What's more important is that now the soldiers, horses, and grass under his command have to rely on Han Fu to provide them, and if he turns his face with Han Fu, I'm afraid that the problem will be troublesome...

Not to mention anything else, without food and grass, it won't be long before his soldiers and horses will be scattered, which means that he must deal with Han Fu in a very short time, but Han Fu's troops are strong and strong, and it is not very simple to win, not to mention that he will win in a short time?

Not to mention anything else, there are definitely a lot of talents under Han Fu, and Zhang He, one of the later five good generals, is Han Fu's general. There are also Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Trial and so on, all of whom are also serving under Han Fu, and now Yuan Shao only has Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Chun Yuqiong, Feng Ji, Xu You...

At least in terms of lineups, it's comparable...

Hmm, on the other hand, this seems to prove Han Fu's uselessness even more?

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Dividing Lineβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

It should be said that Yuan Shao's biggest shortcoming is actually repeated hesitation, because even if this hesitation has great benefits in front of him, he may miss the opportunity.

Fortunately, he has a good background, and the strategists around him can't be said to be super-first-class, at least they can be called first-class, at least Feng Ji next to him seems a little disapproving. "The lord is too worried, that Han Fu is just a mediocre talent, timid and afraid, what is the difficulty if he wants to win, maybe it is not easy in front of him, but as long as I return to Jizhou and slowly figure it out, I will definitely be able to find an opportunity."

Xu Yu next to him also nodded leisurely, but he didn't speak, obviously not caring much about that Han Fu.

The two henchmen and strategists both said this, and Yuan Shao was not good at continuing to hesitate, but just let the coalition disband, Yuan Shao was not easy to make a decision, so he had to say. "Let's see..."

Xu You and Feng Ji glanced at each other, bowed to Yuan Shao, and did not continue to persuade.

Such a decision is not easy to make, and the princes of the Eighteenth Route gathered here, and it was disbanded so inexplicably, which was indeed not an easy decision to make.

Not to mention the movement on Yuan Shao's side, but to say that Cao Cao, seeing that there were so few princes of the Eighteenth Road, the short-tempered Xiahou couldn't help but scold. "I thought that Sun Jian was also a hero, but I didn't want to be a rebellious person who secretly hid the jade seal, I was really blind before, and I thought that this person could make friends..."

Putting aside the advisability of this kind of self-reliance, Xiahoudun at this time was indeed Cao Cao's most trusted person, and he was able to escape from Lu Bu's ambush before, thanks to Xiahoudun's desperate rescue and resisted Lu Bu.

It should be said that at this time, under Cao Cao's account, there are definitely a lot of generals, but there are few who can be called fierce generals, especially super-first-class fierce generals, perhaps only Xiahoudun can barely reach the standard. But when he was ambushed by Lu Bu, he only barely resisted a few times and retreated.

"Alas..."Cao Cao also sighed, originally thought that this time the princes would meet for the sake of the country's righteousness, who would have thought that the princes were calculating each other, but just arrived in Luoyang, they were already suspicious, and now they have fallen apart, which made him very frustrated. In this way, I'm afraid that this alliance won't last long..."

"No, right..."Cao Hong next to him was a little surprised when he heard it. Although the losses we suffered a little more from the previous time, most of the soldiers and horses of the other princes on the side of the Yuan Alliance Lord are still complete, and there may not be no chance of success..."

Cao Cao smiled bitterly when he heard this. "Among the princes, there are only us, Sun Wentai, Yuan Benchu, Gongsun Zan and Yan Shao, most of the rest are just here to make up the number, it is impossible for them to deal with Dong Zhuo, now we have suffered heavy losses, Sun Wentai secretly hid the jade seal and left, Yan Fuxian led the army to catch up, you also saw the performance of Yuan Benchu in the previous time, he didn't want to forge ahead at all, and now he is the only soldier and horse who can fight, do you think he will waste his troops in front of Hangu Pass?"

Speaking of the original crusade against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao once said what he had said to him to the generals under his command.

After hearing that Yuan Shao had already had a small abacus, the generals were furious, and the short-tempered Xiahou Dun couldn't help but say angrily. "It turns out that this guy has a different heart, no wonder he hesitated to enter before..."

"Now I just hope that things can turn around, but..." Thinking of the current situation, Yuan Shao seems to have only sighed in addition to sighing...

Don't mention these for the time being, but say that Sun Jian went all the way south, perhaps because he was 'eager to be a thief' and had a jade seal, for fear of being discovered, but he was very urgent.

It's just that no matter how fast he is, he can't be faster than the people sent to Liu Biao by Yuan Shao.

Although for Liu Biao, he didn't care much about the farce of the coalition forces caused by Yuan Shao himself, but just sat in Jingzhou. But when it comes to Yuxi, he has no way to continue to sit idly by. So after receiving Yuan Shao's letter, he had quickly ordered his troops and horses to intercept Sun Jian's southward journey.

After all, it was about Yuxi, and in a hurry, Liu Biao mobilized almost all the soldiers and horses, blocking Sun Jian's way south.

Looking at Liu Biao who appeared in front of him, Sun Jian was vigilant in his heart, but he had news on his face, but he just ran out of the army with a few generals under his command and came to Liu Biao's array and laughed. "Why is Jingsheng here, isn't he here to greet us, it's too polite..."

To say that Liu Biao is also a humble gentleman, he belongs to the kind of clean talk. However, this person is much stronger than incompetent people like Jiao He, and he once pacified the entire Jingzhou alone, and now he is completely unashamed even when facing a fierce general like Sun Jian in person.

However, Sun Jian is so polite, he is not rude, he just arches his hand.

"I received a letter from Yuan Benchu, saying that you have a private jade seal to pass on the country, so I came here to wait, Wentai, the jade seal is the treasure of the country, you are Hanchen, how can it be so, or quickly hand over the jade seal to avoid its disaster..."

Sun Jian's heart sank, but he still hurriedly defended. "Why did Jingsheng believe in Yuan Shao's book and force neighboring counties?" Saying that, Sun Jian swore to the sky. "If I had it, I would die by the sword!"

Anyway, such an oath had already been made in front of the princes, and now even before the ten thousand armies, Sun Jiandao didn't mind at all.

However, if Liu Biao would listen to him, I was afraid that he would not be able to take this huge Jingzhou, and he sneered even more after listening to Sun Jian's oath. "If you want me to listen to it, let me search the baggage of the army."

Sun Jian was furious when he heard this. "What power do you have to underestimate me?"

This time, the two sides completely collapsed, and it was impossible for Sun Jian, the jade seal, to let go of it no matter what. As a member of the Han family, it is impossible for Liu Biao to sit back and watch the national treasure fall into the hands of others, not to mention that he also has some small schemes in his heart...

All of a sudden, the two sides were in a mess...

And at this time, under the deliberate delay, Yan Shao's soldiers and horses are still a long distance away from here... (To be continued.) )
