"Lord, Lu Su has a different opinion!"

Since surrendering to He Xian, Lu Su has only listened and not spoken, and this is the first time he has taken the initiative to express his views. He Xian was curious about what kind of opinion this good old man in history would have.

"Zijing, but it doesn't hurt to say!" Ho Ham Road.

Lu Su bowed and said slowly: "Yuan Shu's life is more beneficial to the Nanyang Army than Yuan Shu's death. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Prior to this, He Xian had been thinking about the gains and losses and interests of Yuzhou, the life and death of Yuan Shu, and the impact on the Nanyang Army, He Xian really hadn't thought about it in depth.

Lu Su said: "Yuan Shu is dead, and the Nanyang Army will face the challenge of Sun Jian, Lu Bu and Cao Cao next!" ”

He Xian nodded slightly, this was a question that the Nanyang Army had considered before sending troops. Therefore, He Xian left Ganning's 30,000 sailors in Wankou Port to guard against Sun Jian; The 30,000 cavalry of Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu were placed in the Tiger Prison Pass to guard against Lu Bu. After defeating Yuan Shu by himself, he only needed to guard against the threat from Cao Cao from Yanzhou and Qingzhou in the north.

Lu Su said again: "Although the Nanyang Army is capable of dealing with the threat of the three families, its limited forces are scattered, and neither side can have an advantage. If Yuan Shu is allowed to live, then the land of Jianghuai can become a buffer between the Nanyang army and the Cao army. Sun Jian did not dare to risk the name of assisting the anti-thieves to sneak attack the Nanyang army. The Nanyang army, with the help of Yuan Shu, could concentrate superior forces to defeat Lü Bu first and recover Yuzhou. ”

I have to say that Lu Su's analysis is very thorough. This is the principle that "it is better to cut off one finger than to attack ten fingers", and if the Nanyang Army expands the front too long, the risk of defeat will also increase exponentially. But the question is, if Yuan Shu is not fought for the time being, will Yuan Shu launch a sneak attack from behind when He Xian and Lu Bu are fighting? Yuan Shu's character is really not good.

He Xian was undecided, so he turned his gaze to Jia Xu. Jia Xu guessed the concerns in He Xian's heart, and said straightforwardly: "What the lord is worried about, you might as well ask Yuan Yaoqing directly!" The idea of ceding Yuzhou is still the idea that Yuan Yaoqing gave Yuan Shu! ”

"That's right, why did you forget Yuan Lian?" He Xian patted the case a few times: "Yuan Shujun's envoy Yuan Jian has entered the account, and there will be important things to ask!" ”

Yuan Jian came to the big tent of the Chinese army of the Nanyang Army, and He Xian asked him: "I heard that you once made a statement to Yuan Shu and asked him to go to the emperor and return the jade seal of the country, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes!" Yuan Lian replied.

He Xian was puzzled: "This plan is very wonderful, why does Yuan Shu refuse to adopt it?" ”

"There are so many clever plans in the world, and the words of the people are slight, and Yuan Highway does not listen, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"But Yuan Shu took your second suggestion and let Yuzhou sue for peace. How can this be explained? He Xian didn't give up and continued to ask.

Yuan Lian restrained his expression and said solemnly: "If the hussar general wants to ask anything, you might as well say it bluntly, and you must say everything." ”

"Okay~" He Xian praised: "Then the general will no longer go around in circles with you." It's okay to want the general to collect his troops, but how can Yuan Shu ensure that when my Nanyang army and Lu Bu are fighting, Yuan Shu will not be treacherous and launch a sneak attack from behind the Nanyang army? ”

After hearing He Xian's worries, Yuan Jian chuckled and said, "The hussar general is too worried!" If Yuan Highway still had the determination to attack the Nanyang Army, the Yangzhou Army would not have fallen into the current situation. Yuan Highway can even give up the ancestral foundation of Yuzhou, in order to stay on that throne for a few more days. Do you think he's going to take that risk and fight a battle that he doesn't necessarily win? ”

Yuan Jian laughed as he spoke, laughing extremely lonely.

He Xian believed that Yuan Shu was telling the truth, and Yuan Shu was abolished, completely abolished.

"Mr. Yaoqing is talented, why don't you stay and serve my father-in-law and support the Han family?" Jia Xu stared at Yuan Jian with burning eyes, obviously seeing the grief and indignation in Yuan Li's heart and his depression.

He Xian didn't have much impression of Yuan Lian, but since he was able to get Jia Xu's personal recruitment, his ability must not be too bad. Perhaps, it can be regarded as a capable person who was missed in Yuan Shujun.

"If Mr. Yuan can serve the Nanyang Army, it will be a blessing for He Xian and a blessing for the Han family!" He Xian hurriedly followed Jia Xu's meaning, Corporal Lixian, stood up and gave Yuan Jian a deep bow.

Yuan Lian looked frightened, let go of He Xian's salute, and shirked: "Yuan Lian is a small official, how can he be such a hussar general!" The general's heart is grateful. However, the loyal ministers are not the two masters, and Yuan Highway is on the occasion of the end of the micro-end, and he has the grace to carry him. In terms of reason, he can't abandon Yuan Highway at this time of life and death. Look at General Haihan! ”

After Yuan Jian finished speaking, he threw his hand deeply towards He Xian. This passage indirectly shows Yuan Shu's attitude: I can't leave now, whether it's because of fame or other powerful relationships, I have to stay with Yuan Shu. But when Yuan Shu is finished, I will be able to rightfully pledge my allegiance to you.

He Xian sighed: "Mr. Gaoyi! The door of the Nanyang Army is open for Mr. at any time, and the shogunate of this general will always be vacant for Mr.! ”

After understanding the reality of Yuan Shu from Yuan Lian, and getting Yuan Shu's vague promise, He Xian was in a good mood and immediately decided to accept Yuan Shu's proposal for peace. He Xian agreed to withdraw troops from Shu County, and the two sides signed an armistice agreement with Jiashi City as the boundary. The south of Jiashi City belongs to the Nanyang Army, and the north of Jiashi City continues to belong to the Yangzhou Army. At the same time, Yuan Shu issued an edict informing the two counties of Yuzhou and the ninety-seven counties of the four countries to accept the rule of the Nanyang army.

He Xian and Yuan Shu suddenly reached an armistice, which caught the other princes by surprise.

Cao Cao had already sharpened his sword, and when He Xian and Yuan Shu started a decisive battle, he sent troops to attack Xuzhou. Why did Cao Cao fight Tao Qian in Xuzhou? Because Tao Qian refused to submit to Cao Cao, he was determined to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. Previously, Cao Cao and Tao Qian simultaneously responded to He Xian's call in the name of Emperor Han and sent troops to attack Lü Bu, who occupied Yanzhou. At that time, Cao Cao and Tao Qian were allies. The two joined forces to defeat the combined forces of Lü Bu and Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao took back Yanzhou, but refused to give Tao Qian any benefit, and intentionally or unintentionally persuaded Tao Qian to join his team, seeking to reveal the heart of Xuzhou. On the contrary, the imperial court in Nanyang also sent Tao Qian the title of Marquis of Huaixiang.

After comparing the two, Tao Qian felt that He Xian was more kind. Since his Xuzhou Mu was granted by the imperial court, he finally returned it to the imperial court. As a result, Tao Qian did not mention the matter of joining Cao Ying. This time, He Xian conquest of Yuan Shu, Tao Qian originally wanted to send troops to support. But his adviser, who is also the governor of Xuzhou, Chen Qi, said: "If Cao Cao doesn't move, our army can't move!" Cao Cao's desire to win the heart of Xuzhou is not a day or two, if our army sends troops, Cao Cao will definitely take advantage of the weakness! ”
