There was not much time for Qin Tian to rest. After a night of lingering with Luo Yun, Qin Tian took Sangli, the small unstoppable flying army and five thousand Shanyue elite soldiers on the trip again the next day. Gao Chong was
Staying in Qingtian City, Qingtian City cannot be guarded by generals.
"Brother Tian, why are you in such a hurry? Yuan Shu's retreat has been cut off by you, and there are Xu Rong's army of 100,000, and what alliance of player lords are causing trouble in front of us? Aren't we sure to win this battle?"
The little bird Yiren who was following Qin Tian was dissatisfied that Qin Tian pulled her online early in the morning. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and muttered with her seductive red lips.
"What nonsense are you talking about? There are no absolutes in marching and fighting. I robbed his food and grass, which can only be regarded as draining fuel from the bottom of the cauldron. It is still too early to say annihilation. Yuan Shu is not an idiot. Even if he is, he does not have capable people in his army.
, I must have figured out a solution!" Qin Tian chuckled and rolled his eyes at her angrily.
"Ah?" Xiaoniao Yiren was a little confused and looked at Qin Tiandao: "You mean Chen Ji in Danyang area?"
From Xiaoniaoyiren's point of view, if Yuan Shu wants to cross the river now, he can only attack the navy, which has less than 50,000 soldiers.
"A ship of 50,000 people wants to pull 300,000 people. If Yuan Shu really dares to do this, defeat is not far away. As long as a navy is needed, these 300,000 people and Yuan Shu can be captured in one pot.
Dumplings!" Qin Tian looked a little serious.
"Then what else can we do?" Xiaoniao Yiren rubbed her temples and asked.
"Liu Yao, if I were Yuan Shu, at this time, I would definitely agree with Liu Yao. And Liu Yao also doesn't want us to grow bigger. We will both lose. For Liu Yao, this is the best result. Although Yuan Shu is powerful,
But without these 300,000 troops and the destruction of the water stronghold, our vitality is seriously damaged. Even if we go back, we will not be able to cross the river again in a short period of time. And if we easily defeat Yuan Shu, with the power of victory, we can defeat Yuan Shu in one fell swoop.
It is not impossible to capture two or three famous cities in Danyang. This is definitely not the result Liu Yao wants to see!" Qin Tian sneered.
This is the only way out for Yuan Shu at the moment. Although he will inevitably be stabbed severely by Liu Yao, compared to surviving, this loss is nothing to Yuan Shu who extremely values his own life.
The sky was getting brighter, and Qin Tian's eyes were flashing with an uncertain light. Wu Jun could no longer bear the trouble. At this time, if he insisted on keeping Yuan Shu, even if he really killed Yuan Shu, Wu Jun would lose more than he gained.
, Instead of giving the opportunity to kill Yuan Shu to Liu Yao, it is better to keep this opportunity to yourself!
…
Dantu, Yuan Shu's army camp. Compared with a few days ago when he was proud of the spring breeze and full of confidence, Yuan Shu now looked unspeakably decadent. In addition to fatigue, there was also an unspeakable fear in his eyes.
Yes, it is fear. Although Yuan Shu has robbed a lot of food from nearby players and can barely maintain military supplies, Yuan Shu knows very well that these things will not last long, and the nearby player villages and towns have basically
He was wiped out. If he continued like this, within three days, he would run out of food and grass, and he would be finished. In addition to fear, Yuan Shu now felt like a dragon trapped in a shoal.
If it is the end of the road, then so be it. There is no other way but to accept fate, but it is not the case. Now Yuan Shu owns more than half of Yuzhou, in addition to the two counties of Lujiang and Huainan, hundreds of famous cities, and millions of soldiers.
With this kind of strength, as long as he is allowed to cross the river, the dragon will return to the sea and the tiger will return to the mountain! It happened that such a big river trapped him in Jiangdong. This morning, Xu Rong even sent Ling Cao with 20,000 naval troops to blockade
Jiang Mian made it even more impossible for him to go back.
Yan Xiang, a counselor under the tent, once offered a plan to seek peace with Liu Yao or Qin Tian. However, this plan was directly rejected by Yuan Shu at first, and he almost killed Yan Xiang in anger.
However, in the past two days, after losing to Xu Rong three times in a row, Yuan Shu finally gave up the last of his dignity. Facts have proved that Xu Rong is not only good at playing with fire, he still defeated them despite the fact that there was no strong general who could firmly suppress Ji Ling.
After losing three battles in a row, Yuan Shu was unwilling to accept this result, but he had to accept it.
In the end, when Yan Xiang came to remonstrate again, Yuan Shu chose to compromise and agreed to the peace plan. He only asked for peace with Qin Tian, but Yuan Shu was unwilling. So far, plus the troops and horses Yuan Shu lost to Qin Tian the previous time,
There are already 150,000, not to mention that he and Qin Tian still have a son-in-law feud!
"Lord, Mr. Xu Shao is here!" Yan Xiang came in from outside the tent and said softly.
"Invite him in." Yuan Shu did not neglect Xu Shao. He was a famous scholar in the Central Plains and had a great reputation among the scholars in the Central Plains. Although the camps were different now, Yuan Shu still showed due respect.
Soon, Xu Shao was dressed in a green robe and entered the tent with an elegant smile on his face. Behind Xu Shao was an eight-foot-tall general with an impressive weapon. As he looked around, there was a faint light flowing, which was unsettling.
Dare to stare.
Yuan Shu secretly praised in his heart and quickly asked the two of them to sit down. After some hypocritical politeness, Xu Shao kept silent about the reconciliation and just talked about everything.
"Sir, I wonder if Brother Zhengli can give you an answer to the matter that was mentioned a few days ago? As long as Brother Zhengli is willing to get out of the way, I will thank you very much!" After a long time, Yuan Shu finally couldn't help it and went straight to the point. Who can handle this kind of thing?
Whoever speaks first will be passive. Unfortunately, Yuan Shu has no choice. Liu Yao and Xu Shao definitely have the patience to fight with him, but Yuan Shu does not have the time.
"Haha, this is a serious matter. Now that our lord and Na Qingtian are allies, if he suddenly betrays the alliance, he may be criticized by the world!" Xu Shao chuckled lightly, picked up the tea cup, and the old god sipped it.
He took a sip and let out a faint sigh. This Yuan Shu is indeed the fourth generation and the third prince. Now that he is in trouble, he drinks only the best tea.
Looking at Xu Shao's leisurely and contented look, Yuan Shu wished he could go over and strangle him to death. He held his breath and looked at Xu Shao for a long time before sighing and saying, "I wonder how Brother Zhengli can help me?"
Xu Shao's eyes flashed with pride, and he sighed slightly: "My lord was originally a descendant of the Han Dynasty, and was appointed governor of Yangzhou by the imperial court. But now he is criticized. Not only is his name unfair, but he can only stay in Danyang.
It’s really depressing to linger on for a while!”
Yuan Shu's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he had already realized that he had been stabbed to death, the request in Xu Shao's words still made him gasp, and his voice could not help but become cold: "I wonder what Liu Zhengli wants? Sir, you might as well speak frankly.
"
Xu Shao smiled slightly, ignoring the threat and gloominess in Yuan Shu's eyes, and said slowly: "Mr. Yuan is the queen of a famous family. If Gong Yuan is willing to give my lord a fair name, with the reputation of the fourth generation and the three princes, if he can support me, I will definitely order him to do so."
The people of the world will no longer misunderstand. In addition, my lord is the Yangzhou Shepherd granted by the imperial court. However, Lujiang and Huainan have always been in the hands of Duke Yuan. I wonder if Duke Yuan can return it?"
"Bold!" Before Yuan Shu could speak, Ji Ling, who was standing next to Yuan Shu, couldn't bear it any longer. He strode forward and shouted angrily.
"Hmph!" The general who had been standing behind Xu Shao took a step forward and stood in front of Xu Shao. His eyes flashed with cold light, and he looked at Ji Ling coldly. He held the hilt of the sword with one hand, and a cold momentum struck him.
As the center, it spreads to all sides.
"Stop!" Yuan Shu snorted coldly. Ji Ling glared at the general, bowed and retreated to Yuan Shu's side.
"Ziyi, what are you doing? Why don't you retreat!" Xu Shao glared at the general pretending to be dissatisfied. The general snorted coldly and retreated behind Xu Shao. This man is currently under Liu Yao and has once served in history.
Taishi Ci fought fiercely against the overlord Sun Ce.
"Under the Zhengli tent, there are indeed many talents!" Yuan Shu took a deep look at Tai Shici behind Xu Shao, and a glint flashed in his eyes. Military generals, these talents who should not have been in his eyes in the first place, after this battle,
Yuan Shu finally began to pay attention to it. If it weren't for the abundant talents under Qin Tian's tent, it would be difficult to achieve the current situation.
Not to mention Gao Chong, Huang Gai and Ling Cao alone can fight Ji Ling to no avail. What's more, there is also Xu Rong who likes to set fire everywhere. Now Yuan Shu regrets that he did not have enough support for the generals.
of attention.
"Mr. Yuan gave me the reward, but Ziyi is no more than a bodyguard in my lord's tent. He can't be considered a big deal." Xu Shao said with a smile.
Although he knew that Xu Shao said this to exaggerate his own strength, Taishi Ci still had a look of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.
"This matter is extremely involved. Please stay here for a while. I will give you a satisfactory answer." Yuan Shu looked at Xu Shao with a gloomy expression and said in a conspiratorial tone.
"No rush! But I still ask Mr. Yuan to make a quick decision. According to what I know, Mr. Yuan's army seems to be running out of food and grass." Xu Shao didn't think so. He mentioned it with concern and turned around to leave with Tai Shici.
"Bang!" Until Xu Shao walked away, Yuan Shu finally roared angrily, punched the table in front of him, and said sternly: "Liu Zhengli, you are going too far!"
Supporting Liu Yao is a trivial matter. The princes of Guandong, except for Qin Tian and a few others, all regard the Yuan family as their leader. Even Cao Cao is now polite to the two Yuans. It is not a big deal to use the name of the three princes to rectify Liu Yao's name.
What makes Yuan Shu angry is that the two counties of Huainan and Lujiang are nearly 30 famous cities. If they are ceded, it will be equivalent to cutting off less than half of Yuan Shu's strength, which is more serious than losing an army of 300,000. The army, as long as there are cities, has
Territory means continuous recruitment, but if there is no city, how can we recruit troops? How can we rely on raising troops?
Even if Yuan Shu was trapped in the shallows now, it would be difficult for him to make this decision. He knew very well that the reason why Liu Yao was so unscrupulous was because Yuan Shu was here and he dared to offer such a sky-high price. But even so, Yuan Shu would not be willing to part with those two counties. If he really
It would definitely be a real thorn in the side to cede these two counties.
