Jingzhou, Nanyang County, Wan County.

Yuan Shu's mood, how a cool word.

The good news came one after another, and Yuan Shu couldn't sit still.

Yuan Shu, a famous family in Runan, is the son-in-law of the Yuan family of the third prince of the fourth generation. Inheriting the elegance of the Yuan family, he thinks he is more pragmatic than his ancestors.

Born in a wealthy family, the journey was smooth, Yuan Shu is the envy of many people, and he enjoys the feeling of being looked up to. It's just that he can't enjoy this glory alone, and it is his brother Yuan Shao who competes with him for the audience's attention!

Yuan Shu occupied the south of the Yellow River, and Yuan Shao dominated the north of the Yellow River. And Yuan Shao, who was the leader of the alliance against Dong's allies, occupied the rich Jizhou, and his brilliance obviously suppressed his brother Yuan Shu.

It's very unpleasant to be robbed of the limelight!

I can't rob my own brother!

What's more, Yuan Shao is just the concubine of the Yuan family, so where does Yuan Shu, who is the son-in-law, put his face?

For the Yuan brothers, face is more important than everything.

Although the two brothers did not meet each other directly, they secretly competed without stopping. The two enlisted princes from all over the world as allies, and provoked disputes on both sides of the Yellow River and in the Central Plains.

Gongsun Zan of Beiping, fought with Yuan Shao, and there was Yuan Shu's contribution behind him.

Yuan Shu can dominate the Central Plains, naturally not a wine bag and rice bag. While secretly making small moves and causing trouble for Yuan Shao, he is also trying his best to develop and strengthen his own strength.

If you want to dominate one side, the three elements of talent, population and army are indispensable.

With the ancestral shadow of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu's subordinates gathered a large number of military generals represented by Yang Hong and Ji Ling.

In addition, Yuan Shu also has an immortal fierce general under him - Sun Jian's eldest son, Sun Ce, Sun Bofu!

After Sun Jian's death, Yuan Shu, as an elder, accepted his family as an elder. Of course, there were also soldiers under Sun Jian.

Sun Ce, although he is only seventeen years old, has a courage beyond his father Sun Jian. Several times he fought for Yuan Shu, but he was sure to win the battle and conquer it, and became the first hero of Yuan Shu to attack the city and seize the land.

Sun Ce's bravery. So much so that Yuan Shu sighed with emotion of "making the art have children like Sun Lang, why hate when you die".

Yuan Shu could only think about it, he knew it very well. Sun Ce is a tiger, not a hunting dog, sooner or later. will leave himself, like his father Sun Jian, and pull up his own team.

Yuan Shu had no way to stop Sun Ce, so he could only use him to open up more territory for himself while Sun Ce's wings were not yet full.

And Sun Ce really didn't disappoint Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu took Sun Ce as his general. Xingjun Yuzhou. It first controlled Yingchuan County in Yuzhou, and then expanded to the southeast.

I just received the news that Sun Ce Lianke a few cities and brought the entire territory of Runan County, Yuzhou into Yuan Shu's control!

Today, Yuan Shu has Nanyang County in Jingzhou, Yingchuan County in Yuzhou, and Runan County in Yuzhou!

Liu Mang now also owns the land of the three counties, but compared with the three counties of Yuan Shu, Liu Mang's three counties are too shabby!

Nanyang County, Jingzhou, although the area is not large, is within the territory of the Han Dynasty. One of the most populous counties with a population of over 2.5 million!

Runan County, Yuzhou, which has just been controlled, is the second largest county after Nanyang, with a population of more than two million.

Yingchuan County also has a population of nearly 500,000. In other words, the population of the smallest county controlled by Yuan Shu was already equivalent to the population of the three counties controlled by Liu Mang.

These three counties have one-tenth of the world's population of five million, which is the capital to dominate the world!

No matter who you are, you have such a capital. You have to smile from ear to ear.

With talents and population, what Yuan Shu urgently needs to expand is the army.

In addition to recruiting troops in the three counties, Yuan Shu has also been contacting the Baibo army in Zhongtiao Mountain in Hedong. He hoped to recruit all or part of the White Wave Army into his command.

The White Wave Army, known as 100,000 people. Several leaders Yang Feng, Han Xian, and Hu Cai all had the idea of accepting Zhao'an, but their thoughts were different.

Not only Yuan Shu, but other princes of the Central Plains, including Yuan Shao of Jizhou. It is intended to solicit the White Wave Army. Coaxed by the princes, the leaders of the Baibo army couldn't make up their minds anymore, and they hesitated to sell at the price.

The capture of Runan demonstrated its strength. In the contest for the White Wave Army, Yuan Shu has already taken the lead!

What makes Yuan Shuzhi proud is far more than that.

In Chang'an, there is also good news.

Dong Zhuo, in order to repair the relationship with the princes of the Central Plains, asked Yuan Shu to be named the Marquis of Yang Zhai, awarded the general Zuo, and faked the Jieyue.

Jin Jue was crowned an official, but it was just an empty favor, but Yuan Shu attached great importance to it.

Yang Zhai, where Yingchuan County is located. The imperial court named him the Marquis of Yang Zhai, indicating that he had tacitly acquiesced in his control over Yingchuan and Runan.

What made Yuan Shu a little unhappy was that while the imperial court canonized itself, it also wanted to promote Liu Mang! According to reliable sources, the imperial court will officially appoint Liu Mang as the assassin of Bingzhou.

……

Yuan Shu, full of ambition, stood with his hands in his hands, and what hung in front of him was a map of the territory of the Han Dynasty.

It's time to show your talents!

Changshi Yang Hongxing hurriedly walked in: "Envoy, the person is here." ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shu's eyes lit up, and then he commanded in a low voice: "Take them to the backyard and don't let anyone come into contact with them." I'll go right over. ”

Yang Hong retreated, and Yuan Shu looked his clothes up and down, but he was not satisfied.

"Someone, change clothes!"

……

In the backyard, in a secluded hut, Hou Junji looked at Li Zhu with anxiety.

Wang Wushan was defeated and completely reduced to a lost dog, Li Zhu took Hou Junji, crossed the Yellow River, went all the way south, and rushed to Nanyang to join Yuan Shu.

Hou Junji has ideals, and the idols in his heart are the two major princes in the world - Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

He fantasized that one day, he could be like the Yuan brothers, owning the land of Zhou County and commanding 100,000 soldiers.

Hou Junji has been looking for a way to take refuge in one of the Yuan brothers, but there has never been a matchmaker.

And Li Zhu suffered heavy defeats one after another, and the soldiers were completely lost, so he wanted to defect to Yuan Shu!

Hou Junji wondered, where did Li Zhu get his confidence?

However, Hou Junji didn't expect that Li Zhu really got in touch with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu really agreed with them! also sent an important chief of staff, Shi Yanghong, to greet him!

"You've worked hard." Yuan Shuqi Yu Xuanang, as soon as he entered the door, he bowed his hand in front of him, politely saying his hard work.

"Envoy." Li Zhu Hou Junji hurriedly leaned over and saluted.

"No courtesy, no courtesy." Yuan Shu politely picked up Li Zhu.

Hou Junji was even more puzzled, what kind of virtue and ability did this Li Zhu have, and Yuan Shu actually treated him as a guest.

Yuan Shu politely beckoned the two to sit down, but did not take the initiative to speak, just looked at Li Zhu with a smile.

Li Zhu was full of confidence and took out a small bag from his arms.

Yuan Shu's eyes lit up!

Li Zhu presented the small bag, and although Yuan Shu tried his best to control it, his hand still couldn't help trembling slightly.

Small packets, peeled off layer by layer......

What is wrapped inside is actually a jade seal of the country! (To be continued.) )
