Chapter 42: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf
It turned out that Yuan Shao from Hebei had the latest moves.
Yuan Shao took his eldest son Yuan Tan as the governor and sent troops to Qingzhou, first defeated Kong Rong, and then chased Tian Kai, Qingzhou has been in Yuan's pocket!
Cao Cao handed the silk book to Xun You, and sighed: "It seems that we overestimate Gongsun Zhan, I thought that Gongsun Chan could support it for five or six years, but now it seems that Gongsun Chan can only support two years at most!" In this way, there is really not much time left for us, and we must start to solve Wancheng Zhang Xiu and Xuzhou Lu Bu as soon as possible. ”
"The Lord is a wise man." After reading the silk book, Xun Yu handed the silk book to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia casually glanced at the silk book, and suddenly smiled: "The lord actually doesn't have to worry about Yuan No, Yuan No, Yuan No, kill Tai Shi Ci in Xia Cai first, coupled with the grievances and entanglements of the jade seal of the country, he and the Jiangdong Army have long been an endless mortal enemy, if Yuan No, if he continues to stay in Huainan, not only will he not be able to grow his power, but he will be exhausted in the vicious battle with the Sun family." ”
Guo Jia didn't know at this time that Sun Ce was also defeated by Yuan Wei in Longkang, otherwise he would be even more optimistic.
Cao Cao frowned and said: "Feng Xiao, Sun Ce has many heroes, and there is no shortage of sensible ministers, I am afraid that Sun Ce will adopt their advice, and focus on the overall situation, so he shook hands with Yuan No." ”
Guo Jia nodded and said: "Although Sun Ce is proud and empty-eyed, he is not stupid, and it is extremely unlikely that he will shake hands with Yuan Que and make peace, but it is not completely impossible. ”
After a pause, Guo Jia said again: "Lord, there is a plan that can make Sun Ce dispel the idea of shaking hands with Yuan Nuo, and then spare no effort to pursue and suppress Yuan Nuo." ”
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and asked, "Ji will be released?" ”
Guo Jia said with a smile: "The lord has expressed that the Son of Heaven has enshrined Sun Ce as the commander of the cavalry and led the Yangzhou pastor, then he might as well hand over the two counties of Lujiang and Huainan to Sun Ce, and then seal him a rebellious general, fake the festival, and let him chase and suppress the remnants of the Yuan family, so that if Yuan wants to stay in Huainan or go to Lujiang to join Liu Xun, it will inevitably incur Sun Ce's unsparing blow, which is a plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf." ”
"Driving tigers and devouring wolves?" Cao Cao said worriedly, "Sun Ce only has the four counties of Jiangdong, and he is already unstoppable and unstoppable, if he hands over the two counties of Jiangbei to him, wouldn't it be even more arrogant?" What's more, Sun Ce is a general, ambitious, if in the future when he and Yuan Shao are decisive, Sun Ce leads an army to attack Xu Du to welcome the Son of Heaven, what can he do? ”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xiahou Xuan, Xun You, and Cheng Yu all nodded unconsciously.
Sun Ce's tiger and wolf generation, now that he already has the four counties of Jiangdong, wouldn't it be like a tiger to give him the two counties of Jiangbei?
Only Guo Jia smiled and said: "The lord is too worried, Sun Ce and his people, every time they fight, they will take the lead, and they dare to come to rob the lord's camp with only hundreds of horses, Sun Ce is so light and unprepared, he will be killed soon!" ”
Cao Cao glanced at Guo Jia deeply, Xiahou Xuan, Cheng Yu and even Xun You didn't hear Guo Jia's words, but Cao Cao heard it, and immediately said: "Good, according to Fengxiao's words, hand over the two counties of Lujiang and Huainan to Sun Ce, and pretend that Sun Ce, the tiger, swallowed the evil wolf of Yuan No." ”

Yuan Wei, who was drinking porridge, shivered coldly.
Xiao Ruoliu, who was kneeling on the side and waiting, asked with concern, "Childe, are you uncomfortable?" ”
"No, it's fine." Yuan Fu drank the bacon porridge in the pottery bowl in three or two times, and then stroked his stomach and sighed with satisfaction.
The bacon that Xiao Ruoliu used to make porridge had just been captured from the Jiangdong Army.
This person is like this, when he is rich, he is not satisfied, but when he is in trouble, a simple and rough bowl of bacon porridge can make you feel extremely satisfied.
Seeing Yuan No's satisfied look, Xiao Ruoliu couldn't help but sigh, and gave Yuan Nu another bowl.
Yuan Wei couldn't help but glance at Xiao Ruoliu more, this little girl, this exotic style, is really becoming more and more charming, that is, she is still young, and when she grows up in the future, she doesn't know what she will look like?
Yuan Wei blocked the pottery bowl handed over by Xiao Ruoliu, and said with a smile: "Childe is full, you can eat this bowl." ”
"Childe, the little maid has already eaten it just now." Xiao Ruoliu shook her head with a smile, and handed the pottery bowl to Yuan Nuo.
Of course Yuan Wei knew that Xiao Ruoliu was lying, this little girl was reluctant to eat meat at all, and she couldn't wait to keep all the good things for her son to eat.
Yuan Wei took the pottery bowl, then scooped a spoonful with a wooden spoon and sent it to Xiao Ruoliu's mouth.
"Childe." Xiao Ruoliu looked at Yuan No with her pair of big and clear blue eyes, refusing to open her mouth.
"Open your mouth, otherwise Childe will be unhappy." Yuan Wei glared, and Xiao Ruoliu obediently opened her mouth, but her little face was already as ashamed as a red cloth.
After feeding Xiao Ruoliu and eating meat porridge, Yuan Wei was in a good mood.
Yuan Que suddenly wanted to know what Tai Shi Ci's expression would be when he heard that he had defeated Sun Ce, so Yuan Que got up and came out of the account and came to Tai Shi Ci.
It's just one night's work, and Tai Shici's complexion is much better.
The dead gray on Tai Shici's face had faded a lot, and it was replaced by a pale color.
Seeing Yuan Fu come in, Tai Shici's face immediately became extremely complicated, some surprised, some gloomy, some melancholy, and even faintly relieved.
Yuan Wei clasped his hands together and said, "Brother Ziyi, you must already know ......"
"Childe doesn't need to say it." Tai Shi Ci quickly interrupted Yuan Fu and said, "Gongzi came back unscathed, which is enough to explain everything, to be honest, I was very surprised." ”
Tai Shi Ci was indeed surprised, he really didn't expect Yuan Que to really defeat Sun Ce.
How powerful Sun Ce is, Tai Shi Ci knows better than anyone else, thinking that at the beginning, Sun Ce only crossed the river with more than a thousand old troops, and actually defeated Liu Xuan's Niuzhu camp in one fell swoop, recruiting tens of thousands of rebels!
However, now, Sun Ce was defeated by Yuan Wei!
Doesn't this mean that Yuan is even more powerful than Sun Ce? Still scary?
"Brother Ziyi thinks too much." Yuan Wei guessed what Tai Shi Ci was thinking, and said with a smile, "If you want to say that you want to destroy the city and win the battle in front of the two armies, it is far inferior to Sun Ce, and the reason why Sun Ce has this defeat is because he underestimated the enemy, but if he is willing to look at me, I am afraid that my head will already be presented in front of him at this time." ”
Yuan No's words are also telling the truth, if Sun Ce is not a light enemy, he will definitely not be defeated.
Tai Shici glanced at Yuan Nuo and asked bitterly: "Son, my lord is safe, is it safe?" ”
Yuan Fu spread his hands and replied: "To be honest, I don't know, but Sun Ce has at least three spears in his body, and one of the spears is even piercing his body, as for whether he can survive, it depends on whether his life is hard enough." ”
Tai Shi Ci sighed and was silent.
Yuan Wei waited for a while, and estimated that Tai Shici's mood had stabilized, so he wanted to speak again to persuade him to surrender.
Tai Shi Ci hurriedly said: "Son, if you persuade you to surrender, you don't have to say more, if my lord is unharmed, then he can survive for a few days, if my lord is already dead, then he should also go with him, and for the rest of his life, Tai Shi Ci will only be loyal to the Jiangdong Sun family, and will not be loyal to other families." ”
Yuan Wei was silent, but he couldn't help but admire Tai Shici even more while he was indignant in his heart.
Reading the Three Kingdoms in the previous life, Yuan Que always felt that it was hypocritical for Guan Yu to descend to Han and not to surrender to Cao, after all, Cao Cao was benevolent and righteous to Guan Yu, and it was really Corporal Lixian to the extreme, Guan Yu was a stone and should be influenced, but now, Yuan Que can understand Guan Yu's choice.
Heroes like Guan Yu and Tai Shici really value the word loyalty more than anything else!
For example, Tai Shici, if it weren't for Liu Xuan's death, he would definitely not turn his back on Liu Xuan to serve Sun Ce.
At that moment, Yuan Wei stood up, gave Tai Shi Ci a long look, and said, "Brother Ziyi will take care of his injuries, and once he is free, he will come to see you." ”
Tai Shi Ci bowed slightly, which was considered a return gift.
Before going out, Yuan Wei looked back and took a deep look at Tai Shici.
At this time, Yuan Ce didn't want Sun Ce to die, because if Sun Ce died, Tai Shi Ci would definitely not be alone, a hero like Tai Shi Ci, he would definitely do it, Yuan Que really didn't want to see a peerless general like Tai Shi Ci, and before he had time to bloom his style, he died in a hurry.

The defeated troops of Jiangdong ran to the southeast for more than 50 miles, and met the main force of infantry led by Zhou Yu.
Previously, Zhou Yu was not in Sun Ce's army, but he went back to Chaisang to raise grain and grass, because the grain and grassland of the Jiangdong Army was not very rich, and later Cao Cao borrowed more than half.
Zhou Yu had already learned the beginning and end of the Battle of Shouchun from the mouths of Han Dang, Zhou Tai, and Jiang Qin, and also knew that Tai Shici had been defeated in Xia Cai, so he was particularly worried that Sun Ce would suffer a big loss because of the light enemy, so he immediately led the army to follow Sun Ce and rushed in the direction of Long Kang, but he never thought that it was too late to hurry.
"Gongjin, Gongjin, which ......" Seeing Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu immediately rolled the saddle and dismounted, howling and crying, Jia Hua and a group of Jiangdong defeated soldiers also dismounted, and cried loudly.
Seeing Cheng Pu, Jia Hua and the defeated soldiers crying to the sky, Zhou Yu suddenly paused in his heart.
It's broken, isn't it ......
Zhou Yu's handsome face turned pale in an instant, he didn't even dare to think about it, he immediately rolled the saddle and dismounted, picked up Cheng Pu, and asked in a trembling voice: "General Cheng, where is the main public security?" ”
Cheng Pu looked back at the back, and Jia Hua and the defeated soldiers of Jiangdong moved out of the way to both sides.
Zhou Yu saw it at once, Sun Ce's face was like gold paper, lying motionless on the soft couch.
"Bo Fu, Bo Fu, which ......" Zhou Yu only said that Sun Ce was already unlucky, and he fell to the ground at that time, and also howled and cried, Han Dang, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and the generals saw it, and they also dismounted, knelt on the side of the road and cried, and then, more than 20,000 Jiangdong soldiers followed and cried, and the cry shook the sky for a while.
