After a while, Chen Ji appeared above the main hall. He came to Yuan Shu, and then knelt down and said: "Chen Ji, the minister, will see His Majesty, may His Majesty live long live." ”

"Excuse me." Yuan Shu looked down at Chen Ji, and then spoke. After Chen Ji got up, Yuan Shu opened his mouth and asked, "Why did you only see you alone, Chai Zhi?" ”

"If you go back to your majesty, Chai will rush forward because of the merit, and he will die in the chaos." Chen Ji said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Yuan Shu frowned. If a person dies, there is no proof of death, so he can only listen to Yang Hong and the others. However, now that the person is dead, the anger in Yuan Shu's heart has been somewhat sprinkled.

Now is the time to employ people, whether it is Yang Hong or Chen Ji, there is something to be used. After all, Cao Jun's intentions were already very obvious. According to the news from Yanzhou Xizuo, the Cao army in Yanzhou and Yuzhou has begun to assemble, and grain and grass from all over the country have also been transported to Xuchang.

In addition, the Cao army in Xuzhou also began to hoard on the border, and there was a great tendency to attack. If Cao Jun attacked from both sides, it was unknown whether he could resist Cao Jun. And he didn't have many generals in the first place, so if he wanted to resist Cao's army, he still needed to unite as one.

"Since Chai is already dead, then the matter is over. Now that the war is imminent, I will record your defeats, and after repelling Cao's army, I will reward you for your merits and deeds, as long as you can atone for your merits, I will reward you for your merits. Yuan Shu said with a wave of his hand.

"Thank you for the grace of not killing, but the minister knows that he is guilty, so the minister is willing to guard the city gate to alleviate the minister's sin." Chen Ji said in a deep voice. At this time, his expression was reverent.

In this regard, Yuan Shu nodded with satisfaction. Regarding Chen Ji's attitude, Yuan Shu was obviously very satisfied. He looked at Chen Ji, and then said, "Since Chen Ji has this intention, then this matter depends on the general." You will now lead your men to defend the east gate. ”

Chen Ji nodded in agreement, then turned his head and walked down. After Chen Ji left, Yuan Shu turned his head and said to Yang Hong, "Okay, you can go down too." ”

Yang Hong also nodded, and then turned around and walked down.

Just when Yuan Shu was staging a farce here, Xuchang Cao's army finally assembled and stood by. All the grain and grass were hoarded here. And the main general, Du Chen, also received the news of Sun Qian's victory over Yuan Shujun on the front line.

For Sun Gan to be able to defeat, Du Chen did not doubt it. But he didn't expect that Sun Gan could win so quickly and concisely. You must know that Yuan Shu is twice as good as Liu Beijun, and they are all well-equipped veterans.

But this also proves that Old Man Tao's vision is still good.

However, this is not the time to think about how to dig people, the primary purpose now is to take down Jianchun and capture Yuan Shu alive.

Now the army is ready for action. It's time for the army to kick out. After all, if it continues like this, it will only be a waste of food and grass. Thinking of this, Du Chen asked Cao Cao for his life, and then the army drove straight to Jianchun.

On this expedition, Du Chen only brought more than 50,000 cavalry and infantry. Of course, Du Chen led all elite divisions, and. The Golden Viper is never left by itself.

Although the number of 50,000 soldiers is not much, the combat effectiveness of these 50,000 soldiers is not much. It's hard to say. And in addition, Zang Ba of Xuzhou also led 20,000 troops to confront Yuan Shu's army, so Du Chen's 50,000 soldiers and horses could completely annihilate Yuan Shu in one fell swoop.

On the official road, Du Chen is somewhat high-spirited. And Liu Bei, who followed behind Du Chen, had some gains and losses. Looking at Cao Jun's majestic division. Liu Bei kept sighing in his heart, how could he have such a strong army.

The soldiers of the Cao army are all brave and abnormal, especially the Golden Viper troops, which are extremely strong. Looking at the Xuanwu battalion of the majestic Golden Viper Army, Liu Bei secretly compared his white-eared elite soldiers with them. In the end, Liu Bei shook his head helplessly, his 1,000 white-eared elite soldiers were definitely not the opponents of this Xuanwu battalion.

Not to mention that there is a big gap between the equipment of the white-eared elite soldiers and the Xuanwu battalion, just because of the momentum exuded by the soldiers of the Xuanwu battalion, the white-eared elite soldiers are more than a step weaker than them.

In addition to the Xuanwu Battalion, the Qinglong Battalion under Xu Chu, the White Tiger Battalion under Cao Chun, and the Vermilion Bird Battalion under Cao Ren also made Liu Bei envious.

Cavalry is a rare thing, he has been running around for so long, and he has no ability to form a cavalry, and on the other hand, Cao Jun, now Cao Cao has two cavalry teams, how can this not make Liu Bei greedy.

In addition, Liu Bei was most worried about his thousands of soldiers. Although the battle report is good news, and it is Gongyou's great victory over Yuan Shu's 10,000 army. But who knows how many soldiers he lost for this big victory.

Of course, this is secondary, because he trusts Gongyou, and he knows that Gongyou will never deceive himself. However, what Liu Bei was most worried about was Yuan Shu's revenge, Gongyou defeated Yuan Shu's army of 10,000, how could Yuan Shu let go of such a big enemy.

But even if Liu Bei was anxious, he didn't have any way. After all, Du Chen is the commander of the three armies, and he has no prestige in the Cao army at all. Let yourself command Cao Jun, that is purely a dream with an idiot.

But now Du Chen's marching speed gave Liu Bei a headache. Although the marching speed of Cao's army was not very slow, for Liu Bei, who was in a hurry, such a marching speed was as slow as a turtle.

Liu Bei mentioned to Du Chen several times, asking Du Chen to speed up the march. But how could Du Chen promise Liu Bei, for him, the greater Liu Bei's consumption, the greater the weakening of Liu Bei. For now, Du Chen categorically will not let Liu Bei have room for development.

Du Chen also knows Yuan Shu's character. Sun Qian defeated Yuan Shu's army of 10,000, so the next thing he had to face was definitely tens of thousands of Yuan Shu's army. Even though Sun Gan won the first battle, Sun Gan would definitely not win the next battle. Although Sun Qian is quite resourceful, he is not a demon Zhuge Kongming, and he does not have the ability to turn the tide.

In terms of ability, Yuan Shujun's Ji Ling is much stronger than Sun Qian. Ji Ling has been famous for a long time, and he can fight with Guan Yu for dozens of rounds without winning or losing, he is also a tiger general, and he is also quite resourceful, such a person is not easy to deal with.

In the entire Yuan Shu force, Du Chen cares most about Ji Ling. After all, in Yuan Shu's camp, the only one who can be named is Ji Ling, and Du Chen can't name anyone except Ji Ling.

Letting Sun Qian face Yuan Shu's army alone is somewhat unkind. But for the consumption of Liu Bei's strength, Du Chen's move is still incumbent.

For Liu Bei in front of him, Du Chen wanted to make the person in front of him disappear very much, but Cao Cao didn't have this idea at all. However, Du Chen also has some of the feeling of loneliness of the master, and Cao Cao's move also made Du Chen agree to it more or less.

Dominating the world is of course the dream of every ambitious man, but if this world is at his fingertips, then even if the world is taken down, there is no sense of superiority, that emperor is not from a battle-hardened background, and besides, without Liu Bei, can the Three Kingdoms still be called the Three Kingdoms.

However, although Liu Bei can't be killed, it greatly weakens the forces around Liu Bei, which is also a good thing. Although Liu Bei is a dragon among people, he still doesn't have much to do without a stage for him to turn the clouds and rain.

This approach is very contradictory, not only wanting the Three Kingdoms to stand together, but also not wanting Liu Bei to develop. The army led by Du Chen was advancing towards Huainan unhurriedly, and Sun Qian was about to face the most difficult moment. Because at this time, he had already received the news that Ji Ling, the general of Yuan Shu, had led an army of 30,000 and was killing him.

Ji Ling has been famous for a long time, and he led an army of 30,000 menacing, and his only hope for Cao Jun is still very far away from him. In the next battle, you can only rely on yourself.

To talk about retreat, it is no longer possible at this time. Because he still had thousands of captives in his hands, these people Sun Qian did not intend to give up. And with these captives, how could he run over the menacing Ji Ling army.

If you can't run, what you can do is to stick to it. But the question is, can I live with Ji Ling's menacing offensive in a low grade? defeated Yang Hong, it was all due to Yang Hong's arrogance, and Yuan Shujun had already suffered a big loss, so he would definitely not be so arrogant.

Ji Ling is a famous general, and he has 30,000 tigers and wolves, what should happen next, Sun Qian has no bottom in his heart. (To be continued......)
