There is a saying that is called "a good man can't withstand three bubbles", which means that no matter how strong a person is, he can pull his stomach to prostration.

As a result, Sun Jian and Sun Ce, who had eaten the most, as well as some other greedy soldiers, all fell in less than two hours. Fortunately, the four generals only ate a few bites, and their bodies were fine, so they didn't delay the match with Huaxiong that day.

However, without Sun Jian present, although the four generals were fine, they were not in the best condition, so in the second game with Huaxiong, the coalition side lost without any suspense.

In fact, the hearts of the four generals were long gone, they just wanted to end the game quickly, and then send Sun Jian back to the coalition tent, because in their opinion, if it was delayed like this, Sun Jian might really hang up.

……

Rewind the clock by another day.

In the account of Yuan Shu, the superintendent of grain.

Yan Xiang, the chief bookkeeper, attached to Yuan Shu's ear and said: "Lord, then Sun Jian won the first battle, if he is allowed to enter Luoyang City like this, I am afraid that he will drive away the jackals and attract tigers......

Yuan Shu was writing an order to reward Sun Jian, and after hearing Yan Xiang's words, he stopped writing, thought for a moment and said, "You mean...... Sun Jian is the tiger. ”

"Exactly, the lord has to guard against it."

"But Sun Jian is under his control, even if I want to guard against him, I can't prevent him."

"Isn't the alliance leader going to reward Sun Jian with wine and meat, the lord might as well give them the meat that follows......"

"The latter batch? No, no, what if Sun Jian loses the game because he eats this batch of meat, and Dong Thief takes the opportunity to fight? ”

"The lord is too worried, Sun Jian still wins one game now, even if he loses one, it is one win and one loss, and it is just a draw, how can Dong Thief come over?"

"In that case, let me think about it......"

Half an hour later.

One of Yuan Shu's cronies was called to the tent, and after being carefully instructed by Yuan Shu, he took Yuan Shu's operation to the grain station, and personally packed a few boxes of meat and sent them to Sun Jian's tent.

……

Time comes back to the present.

Is the meat bad?

The princes from all walks of life must not have understood it when they first heard it, but then they thought of the content of Yuan Shao's reward to Sun Jian, and began to look at Yuan Shu one by one.

Yuan Shu was furious when everyone looked at him, and said tremblingly: "Look...... What do you want me to do? ”

Seeing that Yuan Shu still didn't admit it, Yuan Shao on the main seat was furious and scolded: "What do you say?!" As soon as I finished saying the reward wine, I came back lying down! And said that the meat is bad! Highway (Yuan Shu's word) yourself tell everyone, why is the meat bad?! ”

Yuan Shu stammered and replied, "I'...... I don't know...... I don't know......"

Yuan Shao laughed angrily: "I don't know? Yes...... Come! Call the adjutant of the commissariat! ”

After a while, a small soldier ran in, it was the adjutant who had handed over meat with Yuan Shu's personal soldiers two days ago. The adjutant didn't know what was happening, but as soon as he entered the camp, he found that the faces of several princes were not very good, so he quickly knelt down and said, "See...... I've seen the Alliance Leader! I've seen you! ”

Yuan Shao had calmed down a lot at this time, and asked, "Let me ask you, did Lord Yuan Shu go to get meat two days ago?" ”

"Yes, yes! Lord Yuan's personal soldiers came to receive it with Lord Yuan's handwritten letter. ”

"What kind of meat are you getting?"

"I don't know."

"You don't know?!" Yuan Shao was furious again: "As an adjutant, you don't know?!" Come! Pull it out and cut it! ”

The adjutant was startled and hurriedly shouted, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" It was written in Lord Yuan's handwriting, and he asked the soldiers to get the meat in person, so the lower officials didn't know! Wronged, my lord! ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows, turned his head to Yuan Shu and asked, "Highway, is there such a thing?" ”

Yuan Shu replied, "Yes...... Yes...... I asked my own soldiers to get it personally......"

"Oh...... Why? Isn't there an adjutant in the food station? ”

"I ...... I ...... "Yuan Shu" me for a long time, and made up a reason: "This is a reward from the alliance leader to Brother Wentai, so I let my own soldiers go to receive the best meat, I am afraid that those adjutants will be shoddy!" ”

"Well, that's ...... Go and call that pro-soldier! ”

"Yes...... Be...... Lord, go and call the soldier that day. Yuan Shu said as he gave Yan Xiang a look.

Yan Xiang comprehended, and withdrew from the camp without changing his face, and returned with a small soldier in less than a quarter of an hour.

"I've seen the Alliance Leader! I've seen Yuan Taishou! I've seen you! ”

"You're the soldier who went to get the meat that day?" Yuan Shao sat on the main seat and asked.

"Back to the alliance master, it is below."

"Well, tell me about the day you went to get the meat."

"Yes!

That day, Yuan Taishou called me into the camp tent, asked me to personally bring three carts of high-quality meat, sent it to Sun Taishou's camp tent, and gave me a handwritten letter. Then I went to the grain station, asked the adjutant at the door where the best meat was kept, and gave Yuan Taishou's handwritten letter to the adjutant. After reading the handwritten letter, the adjutant told me that the best meat should be at the end. Then I loaded three carts of meat at the back of the garrison and pulled it to Mrs. Sun's tent, and then came back after putting it down. ”

"Wronged! Wronged, my lord! As soon as the pro-soldier finished speaking, the adjutant who was kneeling there hurriedly shouted: "This pro-soldier did take Yuan Taishou's handwriting, but he asked where the worst meat is, not the best!" The leader of the alliance is clear! ”

"Well......" Yuan Shao thought for a moment and said, "Is Yuan Taishou's handwriting still on you?" ”

The soldier said, "Yes." As he spoke, he took out Yuan Shu's handwriting from his arms and handed it to Yuan Shao.

After reading it, Yuan Shao didn't find any problems, and asked again: "Was there anyone else at the door of the grain department at that time?" ”

The adjutant and the pro-soldier both spoke:

"Nope."

"I didn't ...... No more ......"

"That's troublesome......" Yuan Shao frowned and said, "The problem now is either with the pro-soldier or with the adjutant." However, the two men insisted on their own words, and there were no other witnesses. This ......"

When Yuan Shao had a headache, Cao Cao stood up and said: "Now one of these two people must have told a lie, I will give you another chance, whoever tells a lie will stand up by himself." ”

The adjutant and the pro-soldier hurriedly said:

"Big ...... My lord, what I said is true! He did ask me where the worst meat was! ”

"Lord Cao, there is absolutely no falsehood in what I have said."

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, glanced at Yuan and said, "Since that's the case...... Then pull it out and fight until one of them tells the truth, what do you think, alliance leader? ”

Yuan Shao nodded and said, "That's it...... Highway, do you have an opinion? ”

"I didn't ...... No! Yuan Shu replied while thinking to himself, don't give me out!

"Okay, come on! Drag these two out to fight until they are recruited! ”

"Yes!"

After a while, there was a "crackling" of boards outside the camp tent, as well as the sound of adjutant and personal soldiers screaming in pain. In less than a quarter of an hour, the voice of the cry of pain gradually faded, and when it was almost inaudible, a guard walked in and said, "Report to your lords, the adjutant said that he was going to recruit!" ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shao's eyes lit up and said, "Pull him in!" ”

"Yes!"

With that, the guard walked out, and then pulled in the aide-de-camp, whose back was a blood-red blur.

The adjutant said intermittently, "Alliance...... Alliance Leader...... I...... I recruited ...... Other...... Don't fight again...... Hit ......"
