Bu Zhu returned to Shouchun with satisfaction, and immediately informed Yuan Shu of the quid pro quo given by Luan Yi.

Originally, he thought that he had fought for such superior conditions, and Yuan Shu would praise him a lot.

But he never thought that when Yuan Shu heard that the five cities of Xuzhou needed to use the jade seal of the country to exchange, his face changed suddenly, and he scolded him for being a bloody dog. "The jade seal of the country is a holy relic that symbolizes the orthodoxy of the imperial road, and it is worth a lot of money, not to mention five small cities, even ten big cities, I will not change them."

Bu Zhugui advised: "My lord, but the jade seal of the country is His Majesty's thing, and it is just an ornament in the hands of the lord, just for viewing." Why don't you exchange it for five cities and expand the territory! ”

Danyang Taishou, Yuan Shu's brother Yuan Yin smiled: "Why is Xuan'an (Bu Xuzi) so short-sighted. If you can't use the jade seal at this time, it doesn't mean that you won't use it in the future. The heirloom jade seal Chengtian was ordered to fall into the hands of his brother, which is a sign that his brother will one day become a great treasure. At that time, the jade seal of the country will be the proof of the brother's domination of the world. With such authority, how can it be exchanged for just five cities? ”

Yuan Yin can be regarded as talking to Yuan Shu's heart, and he Yuan Shu is thinking about how to start from scratch and claim the throne as the emperor! Yuan Shu said: "What the virtuous brother said is very true. The descendants of Luan Ziqi's profiteers, all of them take the word profit first, and they are treacherous and cunning people who will never make a loss-making business. With his character, he is willing to exchange five cities for the jade seal of the country, which is enough to prove that the jade seal is definitely more precious than the five cities. We must not be fooled by him, and we must not hand over the jade seal. ”

"But if you don't hand over the jade seal, Lu Zigan won't hand over the five cities of Xuzhou to the lord. Could it be that the city is gone? Bu Zhu was reluctant, "Or I'll go to Xiapi again and ask for help." ”

"Luan Ziqi clearly doesn't want to give up the city to me, it's useless to say more!" Yuan Shu was also very entangled, and scolded angrily: "Luan Ziqi is a treacherous man, and he prevaricated with me with such harsh conditions. Since he is unjust, don't blame me for being unkind, and if he doesn't give the city, I'll take it myself. He looked sideways and asked the number one strategist under his account, Shi Yanghong, the governor of Yuzhou, and said: "I want to attack Xuzhou, but what?" ”

Yang Hong said bluntly: "My lord, the attack on Xuzhou is not an unavoidable problem. Instead, it has to be fought. Since the beginning of the second year, Luan Yi first occupied Qingzhou and then captured Yanzhou, and now he has captured Xuzhou, sitting on three states and one country, holding the male army, controlling the lifeline of commerce and trade in the Central Plains, and becoming the largest prince in the world. When it stabilizes Xuzhou, it is a monopoly, and the next target is Yuzhou, which is adjacent to it. With the realm of three states, competing with the land of Yuzhou and one state, the lord is afraid that he is not an opponent. ”

"How's that for good?"

Yang Hong said: "For today's plan, the only way to attack is to take the initiative." Taking advantage of the fact that Luan Yi had just captured Xuzhou and the situation had not yet stabilized, he sent envoys to Cao Cao and Sun Ce to explain to them the reason for the cold of their lips and teeth, and told them: Instead of waiting to be broken by each of them, it is better to unite and fight together in three ways. At that time, Sun Ce can raise the army out of Yangzhou and go straight to the southeast of Xuzhou; The lord sent troops to attack Xia Cai; Cao Cao set aside from Chen and attacked Yanzhou, Luan Yi was bound to lose if he couldn't take care of the whole thing! ”

"That's a great thing to say, sir." Yuan Shu glanced around at the strategists in the hall, "Who is willing to lobby Cao Cao." ”

Yang Hong said: "Cao Mengde is a cunning person, and extraordinary people can be persuasive. It's better for the old man to go in person! ”

"There is Mr. Law!" Yuan Shu asked again: "Who wants to go to Yangzhou?" ”

Bu Zhu Mao recommended himself, "I have an old relationship with Sun Bofu as a messenger." ”

Yuan Shu hesitated slightly, but finally nodded, "In this way, Xuan'an will go to Sun Ce!" ”

Something big must happen, and the strategists dispersed one after another. Bu Zhu went straight home and beckoned the beautiful lady who came from Xuzhou to pack up for him.

That beautiful Jiao Niang's surname is Bai, and her single name is Yao. She saw that Bu Zhu was in a hurry, so she asked: "The head of the family has just come back from Xuzhou, where are you going?" ”

Bu Zhu is a real person, and he said bluntly: "The lord wants to pass through Xuzhou, let me go to Yangzhou to persuade Sun Ce to send troops together." ”

"Huh?" Bai Yao subconsciously exclaimed when he heard this.

"What's wrong?" Bu Zhu asked.

Bai Yao calmed down and said sadly: "The people of Xuzhou, the slave family, never thought that the war in their hometown had just ended, and there was a beacon fire again!" I really don't know what ordinary people can do to get through to the end. ”

"The world is like this, and there is no way! Rest assured, if the lord captures Xuzhou, Xuzhou will be stable for a long time! ”

"Really?" Bai Yao naturally didn't believe it in his heart, but he had a look of anticipation on his face.

"Of course!" Bai Yao said: "I hope that the lord will take Xuzhou as soon as possible!" ”

"With the words "love concubines, the lord will be invincible!" Bu Zhu smiled, "Okay, don't say anything for the time being, I still have to hurry up." As he spoke, he kissed Bai Yao's forehead lightly, and beckoned his relatives to stride out with the package. When he came to the door, he heard Bai Yao calling his name. Turning his head, he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Bai Yao smiled, "I wish the head of the family a smooth round and success!" ”

"Let's go back!" Bu Zhu smiled shyly and strode away.

Bai Yao kept sending Bu Zhu outside the gate, and when he saw him out of sight, he turned his head to look around for a while, and finally focused his eyes on a man selling firewood diagonally opposite Bufu.

She looked around and saw that there was no suspicious person on the street, so she strode forward, and after making a close contact with a charcoal shield on the wooden handle of the cart full of firewood, she whispered, "Howareyou?" ”

The firewood dealer, who was dozing off, slowly woke up, looked Bai Yao back and forth, and replied: "ОЧЕНЪХОРОШО (Russian word for "very good" is equivalent to fine)."

On the code, Bai Yao was sure that the person in front of him was from S.H.I.E.L.D. like himself, and introduced himself in a low voice: "Under Bai Yao, number 101"

"Hello sister, I am Wu Wu. Number 55. ”

In S.H.I.E.L.D., the higher the number, the older the qualifications, and it is obvious that Chai Fu has entered S.H.I.E.L.D. much earlier than Bai Yao. Bai Yao said: "It turned out to be a senior!" Hello. ”

Wu Wu asked, "The bishop will have a sister here early in the morning and today, and I will be in charge of liaison." I've been squatting here for many days, and I've finally seen my sister. I don't know why my sister came to me? ”

"Back to the seniors, there is a first-level news that needs to be quickly transmitted back to the cardinal of the Holy City."

"Level 1?" Wu Wu didn't dare to despise it, "Say it quickly." ”

Bai Yao immediately told Wu Wu that Bu Zhu went south to Yangzhou to persuade Sun Ce to send troops to Xuzhou.

"Okay, sister, don't worry. I'm trying to get the news back to the Holy City as soon as possible! ”

"Youlao senior!" Bai Yao said thank you in a low voice.

"It should be my sister who suffered!" Wu Wu said kindly: "My sister's contribution to the Holy Religion will be seen by the Holy Mother, and when she enters the kingdom of heaven in the future, she will be blessed and enjoy happiness forever." ”

Bai Yao didn't dare to cross openly, but nodded expectantly, "Ah...... Great mother! ”

Wu Wu hurriedly cleaned up his stall and prepared to retreat, "Okay! I have to go! ”

"Seniors, pay attention to safety! May Our Lady bless. ”

"Our Lady bless!" Wu Wu smiled and nodded at Bai Yao, "By the way, I will sell firewood here every Monday and Thursday in the future." Feel free to come to me if you have something. If there is an urgent matter at other times, I will watch it on the next street before dawn every Wednesday and Sunday, and you can just make a few bird calls as I pass by, and throw the information written on the paper out of the courtyard wall. Do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

"Good!" Wu Wu nodded, "May the Kingdom of Heaven come as soon as possible!" ”

"Ah...... Heaven's Gate! Bai Yao watched Wu Wu push the cart full of firewood and turn out of the corner, and then returned to the courtyard as if nothing happened.

That night, more than a dozen flying pigeons carrying encrypted messages took off from Shouchun City and landed in the church in Xiapi in only half a night. After transiting in Xuzhou, fly directly to the S.H.I.E.L.D. compound located in the Fohui Mountain Valley of Jinan. When the compilers in the courtyard saw that the letters from these carrier pigeons were fastened with red ropes, they knew that they were first-class urgent news, so they put down the massive spy reports at hand, and based on the ciphertext data, they took the lead in translating these encrypted documents with the "Holy Mother Sutra" as the code book. It was reported directly to Aegis Cardinal Archbishop Guo Jia.

Guo Jia took a look at it, and knew that the situation was urgent, "Immediately fly the pigeon to pass the book, let the Yangzhou side pay close attention to Sun Ce's eastward direction, and if there is any change, come to pass it immediately." ”

Ten days later, the information came back: under the careful investigation of Yangzhou Aegis, it was learned that Sun Ce was currently recruiting troops and horses, and declared that he would crusade against Huang Zu in Jingzhou and avenge his father. But some inside sources said that it was just a cover for Sun Ce, and his real purpose was actually to cross the river north and covet Xuzhou.

Guo Jia hurriedly submitted the two pieces of news to Luan Yi and invited a group of civil and military personnel to discuss countermeasures.

"Originally, I thought that only Yuan Shu and Cao Cao would attack, but I never thought that Sun Ce would be added! In this way, it is really not easy to do! Sun Qian, who had just returned to the church, scratched his head anxiously when he heard the news.

Xu Shu suggested: "Why don't you focus your energy and troops on guarding Yanzhou to deal with Cao Cao for the time being. As for Xuzhou simply abandoned, when Yuan Shu and Sun Ce captured Xuzhou, the two would definitely have a conflict due to the uneven division of land, and it was not impossible for them to kill each other. At that time, our army will move south again, and Xuzhou will definitely be recovered! ”

Luan Yi thought for a while and said, "Brother Fu'er's plan for the two tigers to compete for food is very good, but this plan is not the best strategy. Such repeated attacks on Xuzhou will not only add to internal friction, but more importantly, it will make the people suffer from the war for many years. I can't bear to let the people suffer like this. In addition, after successive attacks, even if Xuzhou is recaptured in the future, I am afraid that it will become a wasteland. In this way, within a few years, Xuzhou will not only be unable to pay taxes, but will need to be funded by Qingzhou and Yanzhou. This does not bode well for the current tense situation. ”

Xu Shu nodded, agreeing with Luan Yi's statement, and continued to ponder.

Luan Yi said again: "Brother Fu'er's plan can be the next step, but if it doesn't work, you can only use this method!" Brothers, do you have the best strategy to defend against the enemy? ”

Zhang Fei pinched his waist and said: "Fourth brother, nine years ago, the eldest brother, the second brother, you and I had a one-sided friendship with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu on the river, I remember that the two of them were still little babies at that time, and they admired you quite a lot. Since you have such a friendship, why not send an envoy to Yangzhou to persuade Sun Ce, so that kid should not follow Yuan Shu to fool around. ”

Luan Yi smiled helplessly, "It's just a one-sided friend." Time has passed, and today's Sun and Zhou are no longer the ignorant teenagers they were nine years ago! ”
