Chapter 559: Shao, Shu, Tan

Yuan Shao's rebellion in Jiangxia has almost been resolved.

Now that Yuan Shu has arrived in Peiguo, out of the friendship of the same brother, Yuan Shao can't leave Yuan Shu alone with Yuan Zhong.

Therefore, Yuan Shao temporarily handed over the war in Jiangxia to Huang Zu, and asked him to lead his troops and horses to exterminate the remaining bandit forces, and he himself went to Peiguo to meet Yuan Shu.

After Yuan Shu arrived in Peiguo, Yuan Zhong and Yuan Shu went to Jingzhou with him after some discussion, hoping to let Yuan Shu meet Yuan Shao early.

Several brothers met unexpectedly and met halfway through.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers met, and their thoughts turned a thousand times.

For many years, the two brothers were fighting in Beijing back then, and now the situation can be described as the difference between heaven and earth.

is also a child of the Yuan family, and it really can't help but make people feel embarrassed.

"The original ...... I, I ......"

Yuan Shu saw that Yuan Shaofang wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he felt like a fish in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

Yuan Shao hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Yuan Shu's hand.

"Highway, I haven't seen you for many years, alas, we are all middle-aged."

"I think back then, you and I were in Luoyang, how high-spirited our brothers were, but look at it now?"

Speaking of this, Yuan Shao couldn't help but sigh bitterly.

"Everything in the world is complicated, how can there be so many satisfactions? Brother, although you have lost power now, my Yuan family brothers are all from the same family. ”

"From now on, you will stay in Jingzhou with peace of mind."

"You and my brothers, prosper the Yuan Sect together."

"How about comforting the spirits of my brother and uncle in heaven? Sincerely invite for my brother. ”

Yuan Shu's face showed a bit of grief.

"In the past, the foolish brother was unreasonable, and he went against his brother several times."

"It's really a villain."

"I am fortunate that my brother will not give up, and I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses."

Yuan Shao patted Yuan Shu's hand vigorously.

As soon as he looked up, he saw a coffin not far behind the line, and then walked forward quickly and bowed to the coffin.

Seeing this, Yuan Shu hurriedly stepped forward to stop Yuan Shao.

"Brother, as an elder, how can you behave with your juniors?"

Yuan Shao cried bitterly: "My nephew suffered this catastrophe at a young age, but I hate me, who should be a father, but I can't even help at all, I can't save my nephew, I regret it in my heart." ”

Yuan Shao is really crying now.

The two tears he left behind made Yuan Shu's heart a little shocked.

But the shock was then overshadowed by hatred.

Your men killed my son, and are you still here to sell favors?

Yuan Shu shook his head and sighed: "It's all fate, this kid's life is thin, and he can live a long life without that blessing." ”

Yuan Shao hurriedly asked, "Who killed my nephew?" ”

"A bunch of bandits."

When Yuan Shao heard this, he was immediately furious.

"Where are the thieves, even my Yuan family dares to kill."

"Brother Xian, don't worry, take me back to Jingzhou, count the soldiers and horses, send people to search, and uproot this gang of thieves, I will slaughter them one by one to comfort my nephew's soul in the sky."

Yuan Shu said: "Yao'er was killed, although it was the thieves who did it, but those thieves are now like a stone sinking into the sea, it is very difficult to find traces, hating that Cao Cao and Zhou Yu burned our soldiers in Xuzhou, so that our army was defeated, and left in a hurry, if it weren't for them, how could my son fall to such a point?" ”

Yuan Shao heard this and didn't say anything.

After a while, I heard him speak slowly:

"Highway, Meng De and that Zhou Lang are not deliberately aimed at you."

"Cao Jugao was killed by Tao Qian's thieves, Meng De sent troops north to Xuzhou, to avenge his father, what do you say you are doing with this matter in Xuzhou?"

"As the so-called sword is helpless, the two armies are fighting, where can they tell so much?"

"Although the nephew's death has something to do with Mengde, the crime is not Mengde."

Yuan Shu said angrily: "Listening to my brother's meaning, is my son dying in vain?" ”

Yuan Shao shook his head: "Naturally, you can't die in vain, it's still the same sentence, my brother will definitely uproot this gang of thieves and avenge my nephew, and Meng De and Zhou Lang will also let them worship in front of my nephew's spirit." ”

"Highway, you also knew Meng De in Luoyang in the past, and everyone is quite familiar, why bother?"

Yuan Shu's face turned black and he stood in place without speaking.

"Highway, what do you think?"

Yuan Shu squinted at Yuan Shao.

"Listen to my brother, I mean that I must protect Cao Cao?"

Yuan Shao saw that he was so dissuaded, but Yuan Shu still meant that the oil and salt did not enter, and his face sank.

"It's not that I protect Mengde, it's just that there are some things that my brother doesn't want to say so clearly, Highway, don't force me to be a brother."

Yuan Shu said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask my brother, what is there about you that I can't listen to?" ”

Yuan Shao's face was expressionless: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll tell you." ”

"Highway, does the death of Meng De's father have anything to do with Tao Qian? God knows, you know and I know, don't think that I don't know anything when I'm in Jingzhou, we are brothers who grew up together, and I know your style too well...... I tell you, I wouldn't stand here and say these things to you if I didn't have any real evidence in my hands. ”

These words shook Yuan Shu's mind like thunder.

He looked at Yuan Shao in a little surprise.

saw that Yuan Shao's expression was still very flat.

"Highway, who is right and wrong, you naturally have a number in your heart, right?"

Of course Yuan Shu knew in his heart, he just didn't know how much Yuan Shao knew.

When he was young, he saw him arching his hand at Yuan Shao and said:

"What my brother taught me was that I was too persistent and narrow-minded."

Yuan Shao reached out and patted Yuan Shu's shoulder.

"Brother Xian, you and I will go back to Jingzhou first, take care of my nephew's funeral, as for the front-line affairs, I will naturally send someone to ask clearly, Meng De and Zhou Lang, if they are really guilty of their nephew's affairs, my brother will never favor them."

"Brother Xie."

"Where's Tan'er?"

With Yuan Shao's shouting, he saw a flying horse coming.

On top of the horse was a handsome young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old.

However, his appearance is still not as good as when Yuan Shao was young.

"Father!"

"Boy, don't you come over and see your father."

The person who came was Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan.

After Yuan Tan listened to Yuan Shao's words, he immediately turned over and dismounted.

"The little nephew Yuan Tan has seen his uncle."

Yuan Shu looked at the heroic and radiant Yuan Tan, and thought of his dead son again, and felt a wave of jealousy in his heart.

"Who should I be, it turned out to be Tan Er, I haven't seen you for many years, Tan Er has grown so big."

Speaking of this, Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Shao with a point.

"What a blessing my brother is to have such a father and a son."

Yuan Shao waved his hand modestly.

"This son is not like a father yet, the real father-like is my third son, although he is young, but between his looks and actions, he already has a little charm of mine, and you will know it when you see it later."

When Yuan Tan heard this, his face was embarrassed.

Yuan Shu nodded abruptly.

"That's really congratulations to my brother."

"Okay, highway, let's go back to Jingzhou together...... Tan'er, you will take care of your uncle on the way back, your brother has just died, Uncle Ru is sad, remember to take care of him. ”

"No!"

Speaking of this, he saw Yuan Tan stretching out his hand at Yuan Shuyi and said, "Uncle, please." ”

Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Tan and sighed, "Good nephew." ”

……

……

At the same time, Sun Jian's side had already begun to drive troops and horses and launched an attack on Liu Bei's camp.

On the Jiangdong Army, Zhou Yu in order to consolidate the situation of the Pi State, and participate in the future to flank Liu Bei.

However, he sent the generals Cao Ren and Cao Chun to lead a part of the Yangzhou soldiers to assist Sun Jian in the flanking attack on Liu Bei.

Facing Sun Jian and Cao Ren, these two are both fierce generals who are proficient in battle formations and good at commanding soldiers and horses, and Liu Bei can only barely parry now.

At present, the news of the defeat of the Xuzhou army has also spread in the army, which is also a serious blow to the morale of the three armies.

In this case, Liu Bei knew that it was impossible for him to defeat Sun Jian, let alone defeat Sun Jian and Cao Ren.

So, he could only fight and retreat, and retreat and fight.

What Liu Bei is thinking about now is not how to defeat Sun Jian, but to bring the soldiers and horses back to Xuzhou as good as possible.

After all, for Tao Qian, who has already been defeated and lost the current situation, it is not worth it to lose his troops and horses.

It's just that Sun Jian didn't want to let Liu Bei leave easily, he drove the soldiers and horses, kept chasing Liu Bei, and bit Liu Bei's tail to death, so that Liu Bei's army could not retreat smoothly, and the action was very slow.

And this can also effectively reduce Liu Beijun's morale.

Cao Ren was also proficient in the art of war, and he did not immediately launch troops and horses to attack Liu Bei with Sun Jian, but drove away the elite soldiers and stopped Liu Bei on the road to Xuzhou.

The current Liu Bei is a wolf and a tiger, which can be said to be a dilemma.
