Lu Bu is finally cool! The big battle in the past ten months has been so smooth that even the smiles on his face have increased.

Xiapi is in the Lujiang River, traversing more than 900 miles, all are plains, there is no danger to defend, it is the momentum of the cavalry-based Lu Bu army, how can the two-legged one not run four legs, Yuan Shu's 50,000 army, almost by Lu Bu's pursuit of less than 20,000 cavalry pressed and beaten, if it were not for the fact that the battle line is getting longer and longer, the supply of military food is becoming more and more difficult, Lu Bu is sure to break through the Lujiang River in one breath, and simply take Yuan Shu's nest.

And although they all made a pretend to rebel for the Han Dynasty and destroy Yuan Shu, they were the surrounding forces that were slow to send troops and still held a wait-and-see attitude, and this time they also saw the essence of Yuan Shu's external strength and middle cadres. Just when the offensive of Lu Bu's army was slowing down, Cao Cao left Xun Yu and the general Xiahoudun to sit in Xuchang in case it had already been revealed to the world, and Yuan Tan, the self-appointed new head of the Yuan family, who had expelled Yuan Shu from the Yuan family's door wall, personally led 10,000 soldiers and horses in his headquarters, holding the edict issued by Liu Xie, the son of heaven, to join in the fun.

Cao Cao's move, Liu Biao naturally couldn't sit still. Just kidding, Lao Liu is a member of the Han family, and he has been defeated by his former subordinates, and he has been beaten by Lu Bu so that he has no power to fight back. Originally, Liu Biao had already ordered Huang Zutong to lead an army of 10,000 to make a troop posture and peep at Lujiang in Jiangzuo, but this time there was no need to work hard to transfer troops.

And Sun Ce is also very single, since he gave up attacking Qu'a in order to draw a clear line with Yuan Shu. Directly from Wujun all the way up the river, Lindanyang recruited troops in an attempt to deter Lujiang. After learning that Yuan Shu's 50,000 army was defeated by Lu Bu, there were still those who had combat power. There is almost no one in ten, and I also feel the opportunity, with the abundant grain and grass offered by Lu Su, and the more than 1,000 newly recruited soldiers led by Zhou Yu in the past few days and the 4,000 soldiers brought by Lu Su's new investment, they also have the intention of crossing the river to crusade against the "old master".

On the land of Central and South China, because of Yuan Shu's faint move, it became lively. Yuan Shu went from high to high overnight. The Yuan clan, who has a famous family of the fourth generation and the third prince, has been reduced to the point of crossing the street. Even the identity that he has always been proud of has been deprived by his own nephew. also fulfilled Yuan Tan by the way, which made Yuan Shu, who had no fighting spirit even if he was besieged by the four forces in the southeast, northwest and northwest, so that he couldn't spurt out a mouthful of blood.

In these years, we pay attention to the family and the country, and there is a family and then a country. It's good now. The founding of the country did not go very well. Even a home is gone. In addition, there are rumors in the army that Lu Bu intends to send Yuan Tan, who is trapped in Linzi, to Hebei, in order to make friends with the Yuan clan, which has been torn apart by Yuan Shao's death, saying that he wants to leave some blood for Yuan Shu, and he directly treats him Yuan Shu as a dead man, how can Yuan Shu suffer? Originally, the excitement of being called the emperor suddenly fell, and the gap between them was so big that Yuan Shu could not bear it.

For the various forces that were obviously not dealing with each other before. What is the purpose of the unanimous move of falling into the well? Yuan Shu can only sneer, isn't it just a jade seal for the foundation of his own country! Whether you want to use it to make meritorious contributions, or if you have other intentions, righteousness? What kind of calf?

Connecting the days when the army was defeated for more than ten days, Yuan Shu understood a lot, and even sympathized with Sun Jianlai, it seems that the artifact is really a trouble-causing root seedling! Far away said that Wang Mang was killed because of it, and close said that Sun Jian died for him, is it possible that now it is his turn to Yuan Shu?

"Those who are virtuous live there! Those who are virtuous live in it! Ha! I am ordered by the sky, but the sky plays me! Yuan Shu leaned in the study of Lujiang's main mansion, listening to his subordinate generals, Li Feng, who was named the general of Jin Wuwei by Yuan Shu, reported that Lu Bu's army was mostly cavalry, and after a long-distance pursuit in ten months, the offensive was exhausted, and he had fallen into a stalemate with the Yuan Shu garrison who stayed in Lujiang County, which was good news, but then Li Feng said, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Sun Ce's army had already entered the territory of Lujiang County, but it made Yuan Shu stunned for a moment, showed a bit of a miserable smile, and asked with a bitter face: " Is the grain and grass that Wancheng Li Guo supported us in the city before is it enough? What was the morale of the soldiers? ”

"This ......" henchman Ji Ling was entrusted by Yuan Shu with the important task of defending the city, although Li Feng also had to be valued by Yuan Shu, but after all, he couldn't understand Yuan Shu's thoughts, and he had the heart to tell the truth, but he didn't know how to speak to Yuan Shu in the current precarious situation, and he was actually asked. was embarrassed, but suddenly saw a person almost stumbling in the door, and without saying a word, he lay on the ground, trembling all over, which frightened Yuan Shu and Li Feng.

"Bundle it? What happened? So panicked? "Speaking of which, after escaping back to Lujiang County this way, Yuan Shu really meant to be angry with Chen Ji. If it weren't for Chen Ji's "agreement" from it, Yuan Shu would really have thought that after Sun Jian's death in battle, there would be no news of the jade seal; If it weren't for Chen Ji's instigation, Yuan Shu wouldn't have had to be hot-headed, like a child playing at home, he couldn't wait to sacrifice to heaven and earth outside Xiapi City, and built the country in a hurry, but finally suffered his humiliation and ended up in this step. But after all, Chen Ji is the best at pleasing Yuan Shu on weekdays, and he has a deep trust in Yuan Shu, even at the moment of almost defeat, Yuan Shu actually prefers to believe that Chen Ji is loyal to do the wrong thing, and after seeing through the fundamental reason why the surrounding forces crusade against him is for the artifact, he is afraid that in case of "misfortune", he can still have a courtier who can send a message to his precious son, so he simply handed over the jade seal of the country to Chen Ji for safekeeping, and made him turn back from other roads. Seeing Chen Ji's appearance now, Yuan Shu's heart tightened, and he asked in a hurried voice.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... The artifact ......" Chen Ji lay on the ground, his head almost buried on the ground, his whole body was just trembling, and it took a long time to squeeze out a few intermittent words.

"What the hell happened to the artifact!?" Seeing that Chen Ji couldn't even speak, Yuan Shu guessed the reason that could make Chen Ji so flustered, even if he was stupid, and stood up violently, but his eyes suddenly turned dark, barely holding on to his crumbling body, pointing at Chen Ji and asking.

"Your Majesty, the artifact ...... Someone stole it! Seeing that Yuan Shuqi's face turned white, Chen Ji didn't dare to hide it anymore. Without waiting for Yuan Shu to ask again, he straightened out his breath and said in a hurried tone: "However." His Majesty had seen the thief's back and his clothes by chance! ”

"Whew...... Say! Who exactly! You know who is so daring, but why don't you pursue it? Yuan Shu finally couldn't support it, and let it out in one breath, almost lying on the desk, staring at Chen Ji's dusty face, never feeling that his henchman had such a face. He was intent on killing Chen Ji, who had almost crushed Yuan Shu's last bit of "persistence", but after all, he still thought about the whereabouts of the artifact, and asked with a big gasp at the moment: "Who dares to steal the country's capital!" ! Say it! ”

"No!" Chen Ji trembled and got up from the ground. But he didn't dare to look at Yuan Shu's old face that was almost distorted and discolored, and said in a voice almost like a mosquito: "Your Majesty only saw the back of the thief, dressed in a Danyang soldier costume, and ...... And ......"

"Huh? And how? And how can you be sure of this. It is...... How? Yuan Shu's angry face was after hearing what Chen Ji said. It was also a look of doubt, and his eyes flashing with a gloomy light stared directly at Chen Ji.

"Your Majesty, that man stole the artifact while his subordinates were changing clothes, but unexpectedly his subordinates peeked through the cracks in the curtain tent. His Majesty didn't believe it either...... What he did, but in order to find out for His Majesty, who dared to be so bold, and to frame the hero, it was ...... But I saw that the man deliberately took a detour several times. In the end, he finally entered the place where Xuzhou Mu's army commander tented. Your Majesty will never dare to say half a lie! Your Majesty! Chen Ji saw that Yuan Shu still didn't believe it, he just stared at himself fiercely, and knew that if he didn't tell the reason today, this crime of guarding the unfavorable situation alone would be enough for Yuan Shu to punish his nine clans, and he kowtowed again and again at the moment, until the blood came out, and then he saw Yuan Shu look away.

"You mean, it was the potter's people who stole the heirloom jade seal while you weren't paying attention?" Yuan Shuyin asked trivially, his voice was so cold that he couldn't feel a trace of temperature.

"Uh...... Be! Chen Ji knew that now that his words had been spoken, if he had half a point of hesitation, it would be enough to make himself irreversible, so his tone was categorical.

"No wonder!" Yuan Shu didn't know what he had in mind, he just glanced at Chen Jihe coldly at Li Feng, who was pretending not to hear anything, and spit out two words in a cold voice, but his hands pressed on the whitened joints on the desk, but it was a deep betrayal of Yuan Shu's current mood. Yuan Shu is losing! What the hell is going on? Could it be that our Yuan Highway really didn't take the fate of the Son of Heaven? No! Definitely not! Blame and blame the gang of people under him, all of whom are pig-like characters! thought that Cao Cao was dragged by Yuan Tan and trapped in Yanzhou and could not move lightly; Lu Bu was calculated by Tao Qian's backhand, Xiapi was in chaos, Xuzhou was unstable, and Qingzhou still had a big game waiting for Lu Bu to drill, Liu Biao was just a fake trick that he didn't practice, the good time, place and people were all occupied by his Yuan Shu, how did he end up to get to such a point?

Potter! Yuan Shu's mind is like electricity! In an instant, he figured out the culprit who led to his failure, and the Dazhong family empire had just been established, and he was facing the bad luck of dying before he could show his might! originally thought that it would be a halfway backlash against the water, but he didn't expect that in the end, the first to be "exposed" was the potter!

No wonder the potter came to the door in person, willing to use half of Xuzhou as a bargaining chip, and used the Danyang elite soldiers left by Tao Qian as bait, saying that he would persuade Yuan Shu to conquer Xuzhou, and also half-truthfully revealed how much grain and grass Tao Qian left behind, but the straight people were red-eyed but never saw the potter take it out. Co-authoring is just a disguise, for some bad intentions.

It is no wonder that when Yuan Shu was pressed and beaten by Lu Bu and pursued for nearly a thousand miles, even the soldiers and generals of Yuan Shu's headquarters were demoralized and tight, and there was a lot of intention to dissipate, but the Danyang soldiers of the pottery merchants played a big role in the face of Lu Bu, who had nothing to do with them, if it were not for the pottery merchants who ordered the Danyang soldiers to drag down the pace of Lu Bu's pursuit, Yuan Shu, who did not have many cavalry, would have been captured alive. Before, Yuan Shu also planned to "reward" the pottery merchants, and at the worst of all, he would also seal a king of the opposite sex and the like, and "keep" this book to Lu Bu, Cao Cao and other "old" princes to reward the heroes. Now that I think about it, it's no wonder that people say that they have nothing to do, and they are either traitors or thieves, and they actually have this idea. If it weren't for Chen Ji's "accidental" discovery, he Yuan Shu would still be kept in the dark!

"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Li Feng saw that Yuan Shu's unconscious gaze had begun to notice him, and he didn't know if Yuan Shu had something to tell him, until now Li Feng didn't know how difficult it was for Ji Ling to be so favored by Yuan Shu, and how difficult it was to rank as the first minister under Yuan Shu as a general, and asked hard.

"What to do? What to do! What should I do......" Yuan Shu kept opening and closing his palms, slowly stood up, and muttered in his mouth. What now? What can I do? Lu Bu's army of nearly 20,000 besieged the city, and Cao Cao, Liu Biao or Sun Ce's rabbit cubs also came to pick up dried fish and pick up cheap; At present, the newly recruited soldiers in the city have been scattered all the way and the dead and wounded are less than 10,000, and the veterans are only less than 3,000 left, so they can only rely on the remaining more than 7,000 Danyang soldiers under the command of the Tao merchants, who can almost be equal to the Tao family soldiers, to defend the last fundamental.

And just when Yuan Shu hesitated, Li Feng was worried, and Chen Ji was uneasy, Ji Ling's unique loud voice broke in rashly, followed by the marching Sima who had urged Yuan Shu not to act like this before Yuan Shu planned to become emperor, and was named by Yuan Shu as a scholar and servant, and Yan Xiang, a military strategist who specializes in liaising with the Tao Shang Army, both of them had a little excitement on their faces, and as soon as they entered the door, they didn't care to touch the strange atmosphere in the room, but they looked at each other excitedly, and said to Yuan Shu with a smile on their faces for the rest of their lives: " His Majesty Lai's majesty is grand, Lu Bu ...... There is no reason to retreat!! (To be continued......)
