Chapter 189 Xuande Chen Shu reprimanded the highway, and Gongsun pretended to release Yuan Tan

Seeing Liu Bei pressing closely, Yuan Shu began to realize how ignorant and ridiculous he was when he was the emperor! There is no regret medicine in the world, some are just endless regret and grief, and some are just as redeemable as possible......

He began to understand why those hypocrites all endured and respected the puppet who had no real power! He began to understand why his eldest brother Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu were reluctant to raise troops to respond to him!

Looking at the generals under him, he was a little relieved, that's it, there are so many people still following him, especially that Ji Ling.

Standing up from the dragon chair, he walked up to Ji Ling, held Ji Ling's shoulders with both hands, and said heavily: "Zicong, I know that you did your best!" The rest of the battle is up to you! ”

"Your Majesty!" Ji Ling fell to his knees with a puff.

Yuan Shu picked him up, tidied up his clothes and armor for him, and turned his head and walked towards His Highness.

Ji Ling looked at his somewhat swaying figure, strengthened his belief in his heart, and said to Chen Lan and Chen Ji brothers: "It's time to take revenge!" ”

The superior only has to be carried away by fame and fortune, but none of them are really so bearish!

Yuan Shu came to his senses.

At this time, he was indeed very sober!

He summoned Yang Hong into the inner room to discuss: "Jiang Da, can you have a reply to Jiangdong Sun Ce at the beginning?" ”

"Your Majesty, the eldest prince has already sent the young prince Tan here! However, Jiangdong Sun Ce has always been fighting for territory, and there is no sign of reinforcements! Yang Hong said.

"It seems that the eldest brother has not forgotten my disobedient brother! Blood is thicker than water at all times! Yuan Shu sighed and said, "Hey! It's all because I'm greedy for a while, I keep Yan Chengyi's advice, and I covet Sun Bofu's jade seal! This jade seal is really a harmful thing, I killed Empress Dowager He and Sun Wentai at the beginning, and now it's my turn! ”

"Your Majesty, things haven't come to that yet! Now, the great general Zhang Xun has defeated Wen Ping and Cai Mao, as long as the general Che Cavalry and them hold Shouchun, we still have hope! Yang Hong comforted Yuan Shu and said.

As they spoke, a figure not far away was secretly listening to their conversation.

Seeing that they had finished speaking, the figure dodged and hid in the middle of the pillar and quietly left.

Besides, after capturing the Yin Tomb, Gongsun Fan and the three of them simply rested, restrained the soldiers, and stationed outside the city. When Liu Bei's army arrived, the three of them welcomed Liu Bei into the city.

Liu Bei restrained the generals to settle soldiers and horses outside the city, not to loot the people's property, not to destroy the people's crops; When he entered the city, he made a list of people to calm the people, so that the original officials could succeed him, but he arranged for a team of 50 soldiers to conduct security in the city.

The next day, he led his troops and horses and went straight to Shouchun.

Tens of thousands of troops gathered under the city, Liu Bei did not immediately arrange the siege of the city, but set up camp and sent Cao Xing to submit the war letter to Yuan Shu as a gift of first salute and then soldier.

Cao Xing ordered 3,000 elite soldiers, carried Liu Bei's war letter, and left the camp.

Outside the city, he lined up the formation, jumped out of the formation, came to the city, picked up his bow and arrows, shot the war book to the city, and shouted loudly: "General Zuo's order, Yuan Highway is rebellious, raise troops to rebel, and his crime should be punished." If you surrender quickly, you still have a chance to live; However, there is a dead end! After speaking, turn the horse back to the battle.

The city guards hurried to the city with war books in hand.

Yuan Shu opened the war book to read, but saw that the letter wrote: The highway, for several years, I don't see you can grow, but I hear that you are becoming arrogant! I had a shallow friendship with your brother at the beginning, and I didn't want to kill you, but you risked the world's disapproval and did things that were not subordinate! I was ordered to march south, and I had to come! I hope you will know that you are lost, and quickly open the city and surrender, so as not to poison the living beings! To the former general.

With a "snap", Yuan Shu threw the battle book to the ground and reprimanded angrily: "Liu Xuande is too deceitful!" ”

Yang Hong hurriedly picked up the war book from the ground, read it hastily, and said tremblingly: "Liu Xuande gave the war book and gained his own power. Your Majesty should write back to him, don't lose your momentum! ”

"Good! Thou hast thou hast thou shalt have returned the book to him! Yuan Shu instructed Yang Hong, and asked the guard, "Where is the person who delivered the book?" ”

"Your Majesty, that man shot the war book, and then led the troops and horses outside the city!"

After Yang Hong finished writing the reply, Yuan Shu took a cursory glance and instructed Chen Ji: "Chen Aiqing, you will lead the soldiers and horses to meet someone who will come in a while, and hand over this reply to him!" ”

"No!" Chen Ji agreed, took the book and left.

Cao Xing was waiting impatiently and was about to return to the camp, but saw the city gate suddenly open, and a team of soldiers and horses rushed out from inside.

The soldiers and horses approached, lined up in formation, and one of the generals raised their eyebrows, wearing the overlord's tasseled helmet, wearing a hundred shutter chain armor, lined with a bright red silk robe, and a big red cloak behind him, holding a big sword in his hand.

The general came to the front of the two armies on horseback, slashed his big sword, and shouted loudly: "I am Chen Ji, the former general of Zhendong in the palace of the Son of Heaven of Great Qi!" Who wrote the book? ”

Cao Xuan shook the reins, slowly came out, and said disdainfully: "Hmph! The rebellious man does not know it, but he is not ashamed to speak out! A certain general is the left general to drive the partial general Cao Xing is also! Thou lord let you wait for the book to be surrendered? ”

"Bold fanatic! How dare you talk nonsense! Chen Jise exclaimed inwardly.

Seeing that he was about to raise his knife to cut Cao Xing, the adjutant general on the side reminded: "General, it is important to pass on the book!" ”

Only then did he take a deep breath and said: "Cao Xing, if you don't fight with you today, this is a reply from His Majesty the Emperor, please transfer it to Liu Xuande!" After speaking, he handed it to the soldiers on the side.

After getting the reply, Cao Xing said to Chen Jiyan: "Since it is a reply, I will go back first to resume my life!" After finishing speaking, he went straight back to the camp with his soldiers and horses.

Seeing Yuan Shu's reply, Liu Bei had no expression on his face, just quietly looking into the distance.

Seeing him like this, Chen Gong asked tentatively, "Lord, could it be ...... Yuan Highway?" ”

Liu Bei waved his hand, interrupted Chen Gong, and said, "Yuan Highway has fallen into the devil, how can he recall his conscience?" It seems that the people of Huainan in the world are going to be slaughtered again! ”

Chen Gongyan said: "Yuan Highway has now reached the point of exhaustion, and he is still so obsessed! It seems that he is planning to defend Shouchun City! ”

Liu Bei, who was thoughtful, stood up, paced to the front of the handsome case, spread out the map, looked at it, and suddenly pointed to the south of Yangzhou and asked, "What are the results of the battle between Zhang Xun, a subordinate of Yuan Highway, and Cai Mao, a subordinate of Liu Jingsheng?" Could it be that Cai Mao's war was unfavorable and was taken by Zhang Xun, which made Yuan Highway feel at ease? ”

Chen Gong said noncommittally: "Liu Jingsheng has been resting on his laurels for many years, and he has long lost the sharpness when he entered Jingzhou, I am afraid that Cai Mao and others are really difficult to match Zhang Xun!" Why don't you send a secret guard to investigate, and I'll make a careful plan!" ”

"It's good!" Liu Bei summoned the secret guard.

He clapped his hands.

I saw a black shadow flashing behind the tent, even if I couldn't see it clearly during the day, it was just a black shadow, and I bowed slightly: "Lord, the dark guard No. 11 listens to the order!" ”

"Ru quickly went to the south of Yangzhou to find out what the results of Zhang Xun and Cai Mao's two armies were, and reported quickly." Liu Bei commanded.

"No!" Darkguard Eleven agreed, and disappeared into the tent like a gust of wind.

Chen Gong was quite amazed by Liu Bei's secret guard, but he didn't dare to ask more.

At this moment, the shouts of Gongsun Fan, Zou Dan, and Guan Jing came from outside the tent: "Hurry up, grind!" If you don't hurry up, don't think we're being rude! ”

"Uncle Thou hast defied the condemnation of the world and committed a rebellion! What are you doing here? ”

"Hmph, don't talk to him, take him to see the lord!" This is the voice of Gongsun Fan.

Liu Bei looked at Chen Gong.

Chen Gongyan said: "It's Gongsun Fan and the three of them, it seems that they have arrested someone?" ”

While he was talking, he heard the guards outside the door report outside the tent: "Lord Qi, General Gongsun, General Zou and General Guan ask to see you." ”

"Come in!" Liu Bei said.

The curtain was opened, and Gongsun Fan, Zou Dan, and Guan Jing pushed a person in.

By the candlelight, Liu Bei looked at it and couldn't help but be stunned: "You, you are Yuan Tan?" After many years, when the young man grew up and became an adult, he actually recognized Yuan Tan from his vague appearance.

Yuan Tan said very unappreciatively: "Thanks to General Zuo, I still remember so-and-so!" ”

"Former classmates, how can there be a reason not to remember!" With that, Liu Bei stood up, walked to Yuan Tan's side, reached out to untie the rope on his body, and asked him to sit down.

Then, he whispered a few words to Chen Gong, and then asked Chen Gong to take Gongsun Fan and the others out.

When Gongsun Fan and the others saw Liu Bei treating Yuan Tan like this, they were very angry in their hearts, and they couldn't stop muttering.

Chen Gong smiled slightly, and said to the three of them: "The lord has long known that the three of you are not angry in their hearts, and he specially asks me to persuade you to wait!" ”

"We found this guy, and it took a lot of effort to capture him. How can the lord say that he will let it go!? "Gongsun Fan will not forget the cause of his brother's death.

"Yes, yes! Strategist, don't you think that's reasonable! Zou Dan and Guan Jing also said on the side.

Chen Gong looked at the three of them and said, "Why is Yuan Xiansi here?" Do you know? ”

"Isn't it here to help Yuan Highway, why?" The three of them said dissatisfiedly.

"Yuan Xiansi came here this time, intending to rely on the friendship between the lord and his classmates to save Yuan Highway's life when the army was defeated! Otherwise, how could he help Yuan Highway? Chen Gong looked at the three of them and said, "If the three of you kill them at the beginning, you will kill them!" This time, it was pushed to the lord, and the lord is virtuous, how can he slash his classmates? ”

Hearing this, the three of them were speechless, looked at each other, and hurriedly asked Chen Gong for advice: "Military advisor, how should this matter be remedied?" ”

"Would you like to listen to me?"

"I want to hear about it." The three of them all gathered around Chen Gong and listened with their ears.

Chen Gong said in a low voice: "Those who have enemies with you are not Yuan Xiansi. If you kill him at this time, you will only ruin the reputation of the lord. The lord will not kill him, and you can enter his tent with a sword tonight, pretending to kill him, but let him live and force him into the spring of life. ”

"Why is that?" Zou Dan asked puzzled.

"He came for Yuan Highway, so naturally let him go to Yuan Highway!" Chen Gong said mysteriously.
