On Yuan Shu's side, just when the two sides had just ceased fighting, he had already received the news.

"It's really too deceitful, it's just a small trick that deceived my army of 30,000 back."

After getting the news, Yuan Shu was very angry, and he also mentioned the matter of shooting the halberd in the news, but it was just a passing mention.

"My lord, it doesn't seem so simple at this time." At this time, Yang Feng, who was under him, stood up and said.

"What is not simple, I asked Ji Ling to bring an army of 30,000, but I didn't even touch the enemy's city." The more Yuan Shu spoke, the more angry he became.

"Don't be angry, if you want to talk about the lord's understanding of General Ji, you should know that General Ji is a smart person."

"He is smart, but how much grain and grass have I prepared for this army of 30,000."

"I think this Lu Bu is also too deceitful, when Ji Ling comes back with the troops, I will reorganize the army of 50,000 and take down the heads of these three family slaves."

"Since General Ji has withdrawn from the army, there must be his reasons, I don't think it is better to wait for him to come back and ask him about the situation at that time."

"Okay, just sit as you say." Yuan Shu nodded.

Within a few days, Ji Ling returned with the army.

"Report ~ General Ji asks to see you."

Yuan Shu was in the hall when a herald came in to report.

"Bring him in."

After Ji Ling came back with the army, he didn't stop too long, and ran directly to Yuan Shu's mansion.

Regarding Yuan Shu's remarks that day, someone had already secretly told him.

In fact, he is still very worried in his heart now, after all, he withdrew the army without doing anything.

As soon as he arrived at the top of the hall, Ji Ling raised his hands into fists above his head and bowed his head deeply.

"Ji Ling, do you know what mistakes you made." Yuan Shu asked loudly.

"My subordinates are guilty, I led 30,000 troops, and I didn't even touch the enemy's city, but I retreated."

"You know? Do you know how much food you've wasted on me? ”

"These 30,000 troops were just taken out, nothing was done, and they were brought back to me like this, do you think I want you to take them out to play?" Yuan Shu was very atmospheric.

"It's the subordinates who are wrong, but this incident is also excusable." Ji Ling hurriedly said.

He still knows a thing or two about Yuan Shu's temper.

Although Yuan Shu is sometimes very cunning and self-serving, he is very face-saving.

I didn't do anything this time, just ran back like this, this Yuan Shu must be angry.

This matter will definitely spread out, and then attract the jokes of the princes of the world.

"Extenuating circumstances? Isn't it because of the halberd? Could there be some other reason? ”

"The lord really doesn't know something, this gate shooting halberd is really not that simple."

"Oh? Then I'll listen to you. Seeing that his subordinate general Ji Ling said this, Yuan Shu suddenly became interested.

"When I arrived at this Xiaopei with my troops that day, this Lu Bu had already set up camp next to Xiaopei, and formed a rivalry with this Xiaopei."

"The next day, this Lu Bu invited me to his army to discuss peace, and I took a few personal soldiers to this Lu Bu's camp."

"At first, I didn't agree with this Lu Bu's peace."

"Oh? Do you still know it in your heart? Yuan Shu sneered, but he was interested in this matter.

"Of course my subordinates know that although this Lu Bu is strong in martial arts, but with the little people he brought, plus Liu Bei in Xiao Pei, it is impossible for us to be the opponent of our 30,000 army."

"At that time, a lieutenant came out of the Lu Bu army, and he looked weak, and he said that he made a bet with me to erect a halberd thousands of miles away, and then put a branch on this halberd."

"I thought he was just a little arrogant, and he didn't have the ability at all, so I agreed to him."

"As a result, the last general didn't expect that not only did he shoot this branch, but this arrow also shook the surrounding ground, that strength is really terrifying."

"That's still the case, I thought it was just an exaggeration." Yuan Shu also frowned.

Seeing Yuan Shu say this, Ji Ling knew that he had been exonerated from his crimes.

"That's the case, this little guy is just a lieutenant under Lu Bu, but in my opinion, his strength can't find out how much Lu Bu has."

"If I take those 30,000 troops to attack, face their horns, and then face Lu Bu and this person, two fierce generals, I am afraid that death will not taste a little sweetness."

"As you said, plus Liu Bei's subordinates in this Xiaopei City, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, the two fierce generals, you really can't have the upper hand." Yuan Shu nodded thoughtfully.

When Ji Ling said this, he slowly understood the situation at that time.

"Although I fight with all my might, I may still have hope of winning, but these 30,000 elite soldiers can't lose a little, so I don't dare to waste the lord's troops in vain."

"Hmph, it seems that you are still smart, then I will not punish you for the time being, but the captain in the Lu Bu army, have you asked for a clear name."

For such a fierce general, Yuan Shu is still very yearning.

Moreover, this person was only a lieutenant in Lu Bu's army, and he must have been a little unhappy in his heart.

So he wanted to see if it was possible to draw this man to his side.

"Of course, my subordinates know that the lord has this idea, this captain is called Tao Ying, and on the second day, I took the opportunity of the banquet to ask the name of the captain, and in front of him, I praised the lord's wisdom."

"Hahaha, sure enough, you're smart, good, well done." Yuan Shu laughed.

"It's just that this Lu Bu's strength is getting stronger and stronger now, and there is Liu Bei Xiao'er waiting for an opportunity to move, I think the current situation is still not optimistic."

"That's true, this Lu Bu is already very brave, and now he has such brave subordinates, it seems that it is not easy to deal with." Yuan Shu sighed.

"But the subordinates have a plan, and it should still have some effect." Ji Ling thought for a while and said.

"Oh? Say it. Yuan Shu sat up straight.

"I heard that there is a daughter in this Lu Bu's family, named Lu Lingqi, who is still a very brave female general, if the lord can marry him, then we will become in-laws with this Lu Bu, then the remaining Liu Bei must be much easier to solve."

"Okay, Lu Bu's force is so high, his daughter will definitely not be able to find out, and when the time comes, we will not only have one more fierce general, but also catch this Lu Bu's handle." Yuan Shu applauded.

"Okay, then follow what you said, I'll write a letter tomorrow and ask someone to hand it over to this Lu Bu for me, hahahaha! ~~”
