Chapter 380: Soul Fade, Soul Fade!
When Liu He commanded and dispatched the two-way troops led by Xian Yuyin and Xu Huang in Lingzhi to besiege Gongsun Du and the helpers he found, there was also a storm in many places south of the Yellow River in the Han Dynasty.
For example, Yuan Shu, who seized Yangzhou, after several years of dormancy, his self-confidence has exploded, and this time he couldn't withstand the instigation of the people sent by Cao Cao, and finally sent 100,000 troops from the two directions of Zhongli and Dongcheng to attack Xuzhou!
The reason or excuse for Yuan Shu's dispatch to Xuzhou was that when the great god was in chaos the year before last, he coerced the people to break into his own territory from the direction of Guangling, harmed the peace of the people under his rule, and killed many people who did not want to believe in Buddhism, and this revenge must be avenged, and this injustice must also be avenged!
To tell the truth, Yuan Shu's reason for going to war is really not good, regardless of the fact that the Zhenrong Rebellion has been going on for several years, Yuan Shu has only come to turn over the old accounts now, which is a strong word in itself, the key is that the Zhenrong Rebellion has nothing to do with the current Xuzhou Mu Lu Zhi, and it is really necessary to investigate the reason, or because of the chaos caused by Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou, and Xuzhou is the biggest victim.
The most important thing is that the culprit who caused this great chaos is now hiding in Yuzhang County, and Yuzhang County belongs to Yangzhou! That is to say, if Yuan Shu really wants to eliminate harm for the people, he should send troops to Yuzhang County, where to go to catch the great god stick and cut off the head and whip the corpse, how can he send troops to Xuzhou, which is in ruins, and make a black hand on Xuzhou, which has been in trouble?
This is the case in troubled times, people with an army in their hands can have no scruples, and they can play as much as they want, even if Yuan Shu obviously wants to annex Xuzhou, and he is still using a very bad excuse, but no one stands up for Xuzhou to uphold justice, accusing Yuan Shu of doing something wrong with this.
Yanzhou Cao Cao, Bingzhou Yuan Shao and Jingzhou Liu Biao were silent, because they were all looking forward to Yuan Shu going to Xuzhou. The Chang'an court did not accuse Yuan Shu. is because now Chang'an is also in chaos, and the situation is more critical than that of Xuzhou. Qingzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou, which are related to Liu He, did not speak out because the speed of news transmission was limited, and now everyone is waiting for the eldest prince who is far away in Lingzhi in Liaoxi to come up with an idea.
As for Xuzhou, which is in the center of the whirlpool, on the contrary, he only does not say anything, since the robbers are going to come to the house to rob things, what else is there to say, prepare to fight hard!
Yuan Shu was so faint that he didn't know who instigated Lu Dao, he actually sent someone to Anhui County before sending troops. took care of Qiao Xuan's family, and seemed to want to take Qiao Xuan's two daughters as hostages to intimidate Liu He not to interfere in the war in Xuzhou.
Qiao Xuan's two daughters are naturally Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. At the beginning, Liu Yu sent people thousands of miles away to Anhui County to propose marriage to his son, Qiao Xuan saw that the reputation and status of the Liu family were enough, and Liu Yu was so sincere, so he agreed to marry his eldest daughter to Liu He, but because Da Qiao was only thirteen years old at that time, he was not in a hurry to send his daughter to Youzhou to marry Liu He.
Time flies. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and although there are frequent wars in various places, so that the roads are blocked, Liu Yu has never said that he wants to break the marriage contract with the Qiao family. And Qiao Jiaye was willing to use the name of Liu Yu's father and son as the family's umbrella, and lived the past few years safely.
Although the power of Liu Yu's father and son cannot be extended to Lujiang County for the time being, the local officials in Lujiang County and Anhui County are not stupid, and they don't want to offend Liu's father and son because of their short-sightedness. Because no one can say who will fall into the hands of the Han world in the future, and the momentum of the Liu family in Youzhou is obviously flourishing, far exceeding other forces.
The officials in Lujiang County did not want to embarrass the Qiao family. But he was also powerless to prevent Yuan Shu in Shouchun City from sending troops to Anhui County to threaten Qiao's family, after all, the county officials were not as good as the current management, Yuan Shu's subordinates now had more than 100,000 troops, and whoever wanted to anger Yuan Shu would be the end of the death of the clan at that time.
In Anhui County, there are soldiers patrolling outside the courtyard of Qiao's house every day, and these people claim to be here to protect the safety of Qiao's family, but in fact, dozens of people in Qiao's family are under house arrest and monitored.
In the boudoir of a daughter's house in the backyard of Qiao's house, two flower-like girls had sad faces, and no one wanted to speak.
"Sister, you're going to persuade your father! In the past few days, since our family was surrounded by soldiers, my father didn't think about tea and dinner, and he was obviously emaciated and haggard. If this continues, if Daddy can't afford to get sick, who will call the shots in the family? Fourteen-year-old Xiao Qiao finally couldn't help it and complained about his sister Da Qiao.
Da Qiao frowned and sighed softly. "Sister, I also want to comfort my father, but how can you persuade me? Someone forced Daddy to ruin the marriage, but once Daddy broke the marriage contract with the Liu family, the reputation of our Qiao family was completely ruined. Daddy has always valued fame more than his life, and even if he is forced to die, he will not agree to ruin the marriage. ”
"Hmph, it's all to blame for Liu Shiren, who suffered a thousand cuts! Since you let people come to our Qiao family to ask for marriage, it's been five years, and I don't see him send someone to marry you back to Youzhou! I heard that he married a woman from the Mi family in the East China Sea into the mansion half a year ago. ”
Xiao Qiao pouted, even when he was angry and scolding, he looked so cute and charming.
Da Qiao was amused by his sister's angry appearance, covered his mouth and chuckled, and then comforted his sister and said: "Although the Liu family has not officially sent someone to welcome me, don't you always ask someone to send various gifts during the New Year's holidays?" The rouge on your face now, the fur you are wearing, and the little red horse raised in the stable, aren't they all sent from Youzhou? Although our Qiao family is being persecuted now, it has not reached the point of inexorability, no matter who wants to move our Qiao family, we must weigh the consequences. ”
"You said it so well, why don't you tell your father these words?"
"Daddy knows these words in his heart, and it's useless to say more."
Xiao Qiao is still a girl's heart in the end, and was comforted by her sister like this, her heart was uneasy, and she suddenly remembered something else, so she blinked her big eyes and said pitifully: "Sister, I heard that your husband is very powerful, not only is he long, he is more than seven feet tall, and he can govern the country and govern the country, and he can destroy Hu Anbang with martial arts, and when you marry in the future, don't forget your sister in Jiangnan!" ”
Da Qiao quickly reached out and knocked a chestnut on his sister's forehead, "What do you think Sister A, I can't forget it!" ”
The two sisters made a mess in the boudoir, forgetting for a while the group of wolf-like soldiers outside Qiao's courtyard.
At the same time, in the Beijia Mansion in Tancheng, Xuzhou, the brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were also discussing things, but their conversation was much more serious than that of the Qiao sisters.
"Big brother, that old thief of Yuan Shu is finally going to attack us in Xuzhou! This time, he sent Ji Ling and Zhang Xun, two generals, each with 50,000 soldiers and horses, to attack Xuzhou from Zhongli and Dongcheng respectively, we are afraid that we will not be able to withstand it! Do we want to start the transfer of the clan's property and family to Jicheng now, it just so happens that the ship of the Haiyang Navy Master is docked on the pirates of Yuzhou Mountain, and we can ask them to help escort them. ”
"Hmph, you are still a general who led troops to fight, where did you have the courage and courage to defend Xuzhou at the beginning? Now everyone in Xuzhou is looking at our Mi family, who knows that our Mi family and Jicheng are in-laws, if we take the lead in retreating to Youzhou, what do you make others think? ”
was reprimanded by his brother, Mi Fang was still a little unwilling, and muttered in a low voice: "Last time, Cao Cao led troops to fight Xuzhou, but 50,000 soldiers and horses, we almost couldn't hold it, this time Yuan Shu sent a full 100,000 troops, and I don't know if Cao Cao will follow to take advantage of the fire to rob." The last time we were able to hold Xuzhou, it was all thanks to General Taishi, and now that General Taishi has returned to Jizhou, who else can we count on......"
Although Mi Fang's voice was not loud, in the quiet night, in this small study, it still clearly penetrated Mi Zhu's ears.
Mi Zhu glared at Mi Fang fiercely, and said with some hatred: "Zhang Xun and Ji Ling have just entered Hailing now, even if they are strong and strong, one Hailing County is enough to hold them back for several months and can't go north, and the old fox surnamed Chen in Guangling is not a fuel-efficient lamp." I have sent someone to Jicheng to report the news, I believe that your brother-in-law will definitely not sit idly by and watch Xuzhou be swallowed by Yuan Shu, and will definitely send troops to support when the time comes, what do you have to worry about? ”
"I'm afraid that far water can't save the near fire. Big brother, do you say that the new Lu Zhoumu is really as powerful as the rumors? Will he turn decay into magic, and with only the existing forces in Xuzhou, he will beat Yuan Shu's subordinates back to the south of the Yangtze River and Huai River? ”
"Presumably it won't be worse than Tao Gongzu, otherwise Lord Taifu wouldn't have sent him from Jizhou to our Xuzhou. No matter what, tomorrow Luzhou Mu gathers to discuss matters, you must not interject and discuss indiscriminately, no matter how Lu Zhou Mu mobilizes and deploys troops and horses, you, as a general, must firmly support it! Mi Zhu looked at his younger brother with a serious face and told him repeatedly.
"Okay, I remember!" Mi Fang didn't dare to be sloppy, and she made a solemn promise.
At this moment, the chief steward of the Mi family outside the door knocked lightly. "The head of the Qiqi family, the Qiao family in Lujiang and Anhui County sent someone to ask for a meeting, saying that there is a very urgent matter to be told."
"Qiao's family in Anhui County? But the Qiao family, who is also engaged to the Liu family in Jicheng? ”
"This is it."
"Hurry up, please come to the back hall, I'll go here."
Not long after, someone from the Qiao family came to see Mi Zhu and Mi Fang.
"What! Yuan Shu, a faint soul, dared to send someone to put the Qiao family under house arrest, and forced the Qiao family to ruin the marriage? ”
When Mi Zhu listened to the news from the Qiao family, he couldn't help but burst into a foul language.
"Ha Lu Ha ......, the soul is light, the soul is light!" Mi Fang gritted her teeth, but she couldn't hold back a smile on her face. "We are worried that Youzhou has no chance to meddle in the affairs of Xuzhou, but Yuan Shu actually went to provoke my brother-in-law, and there is nothing to worry about in Xuzhou now."
Mi Zhu was so angry by his brother's virtue that he said with a dark face: "Don't you hurry up and report such an important matter to Lu Zhoumu!" (To be continued......)
