Shi Xie nodded to Shi Yi. It was difficult to decide on this step. It was difficult to decide whether to fight or surrender, but in the end, he had to take this step.
The sooner you make a decision, the sooner you can make corresponding arrangements. Otherwise, it will be too late to wait for Yuan Shu's army to invade the country and want to unite with Lu Bu.
"Okay, then I understand, but who should be photographed to join forces with Lu Bu?"
Shi Yi glanced at Shi Xie, you are the leader of the Shi family, you are the head of the Shi family, you have the final say on everything, but now that you have taken this step, there is no room for regrets, and now there is still
A more critical question is who will unite with Lu Bu.
"Shiwu, since you are in charge of this matter, you should go to Nanhai County and leave the matter of contacting Lu Bu to you. Remember, the life or death of the Shi family is in your hands. You must be beautiful.
The completion.”
Shi Xie glanced at the warriors beside him. Since the proposal to unite with Lu Bu came from you, I'll leave it to you.
"Okay, I'll make preparations and head to Nanhai County immediately. I believe that facing Yuan Shu who is about to come, Lu Bu will not think of fighting Yuan Shu on his own."
Shiwu nodded to Shixie. Since he proposed this matter, he naturally had no choice but to complete it.
"Okay, Shiyi, you go immediately to mobilize troops and horses to Cangwu County.
It is enough to leave 10,000 troops in Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Rinan counties, 10,000 troops in Yulin County, and no need to leave troops in Hepu County, and then recruit 20,000 more troops, so that we can gather 100,000 troops in Cangwu County.
If Yuan Shu went south to Jiaozhou, he would either go from Lingling County in Jingzhou or Yuzhang County in Yangzhou.
After the soldiers and horses are gathered, you immediately lead the troops north to garrison Fuchuan, and then move the residents of Xie Mu and Fengcheng counties to Fuchuan and Linhe.
I want to give Yuan Shu a clearing of the wilderness so that he cannot get any food or a guide."
I have to say that Shi Yi has certain strength to become the local overlord of Jiaozhou. It can be said that all places in Jiaozhou are in his mind, and his arrangements are just right.
Moreover, although Jiaozhou is not as mountainous as Yizhou, it is also densely jungled. Without a guide and supplies, Yuan Shu would have to go through a lot of trouble if he wanted to capture Jiaozhou.
"I understand, I'll make arrangements right away."
Shi Yi clasped his fists at Shi Xie, and then left to arrange the deployment of troops.
After Shi Yi and Shi Wu left, Shi Xie sat on the chair and looked at the sky in the distance.
"My ancestors, I hope you can protect me and win this battle, so that our family can continue to live in Jiaozhou for generations to come."
Shi Xie silently said this to the sky.
"Father, I have a crush on a young lady from the Zhang family. You must help me win her over."
Just when Shi Xie was communicating with his ancestors, an inexplicable voice rushed directly into his mind, and then a short, mediocre-looking young man came directly in front of Shi Xie.
"Shi Hui, you kid has been bullying men and women all day long, kneel down for me."
Being suddenly disturbed and still wanting to beg his wife, Shi Xie immediately became angry and jumped up with a big mouth.
"Father, what's wrong with you? Why did you hit me?"
This slap directly blinded Shi Hui. You must know that since childhood, your father has never touched a finger on you. What happened today? I just want a girl from a small family. Why did he slap himself on the ear?
?
"I used to be too used to you. If I wasn't afraid that something would happen to you, would I still be worried about whether to fight or surrender?
Come here, lock him up for me."
After hearing what Shi Hui said, Shi Xie became angry again and directly called for people to arrest Shi Hui.
"Father, father, no, I don't want a concubine anymore. Father, I'll take my leave now."
Shi Hui glanced at Shi Xie and knew that his father was really angry this time. He didn't have time to explain, so he turned around and ran away.
"Catch him for me."
Seeing Shi Hui running away, Shi Xie directly called for people to catch Shi Hui.
After hearing Shi Xie's words, more than a dozen servants rushed over from all directions, but Shi Hui knew that if he was caught, he would definitely be imprisoned for several days.
So I mustered up the courage and relied on the servants not to do anything to me, so I rushed out of the siege and disappeared without a trace after leaving the mansion.
"A bunch of trash."
Seeing Shi Hui disappear, Shi Xie could only curse a few words, which made a bunch of servants kneel down and beg for mercy.
It has to be said that Shi Xie's prestige in Jiaozhou is still very high. His words make the entire Jiaozhou tremble. He is like God here, and his words are more useful than the emperor's.
In three days, 20,000 new soldiers were recruited. Then Shiyi led the cavalry to Fuchuan first, while the 30,000-strong army slowly marched behind.
After Shi Yi arrived in Fuchuan, he began to strengthen the city defense. At the same time, he sent people to Xiemu and Fengcheng counties to relocate the residents. At the same time, the scouts left Xiemu and stationed in Lingling County to explore information about Yuan Shu's troops.
Just as they were investigating the news, the Yingyang Army scouts sent by Zhao Yun had sneaked into Xie Mu and Feng Cheng.
When they found out that Shi Yi had begun to shrink his defenses and relocate the people, they immediately divided their troops into two groups. One group followed the migrating people to Fuchuan, while the other group returned to the camp road non-stop to report the situation here to Zhao Yun.
Both sides are now acting tentatively, sending scouts to detect information from each other. However, one thing is that Zhao Yun is in the dark, while Shiyi's Jiaozhou soldiers are in the open. This is their advantage.
The secret battle between the two sides is still going on, and the soldiers and warriors, escorted by a hundred cavalry, have passed through Gaoyao City and headed for Sihui, Lu Bu's frontier town.
"Sir, Shi Xie's brother, Shi Wu, is outside the city."
The person in charge of the Four Meetings was Song Xian, now Lu Bu's military advisor.
"who?
Shiwu is here?"
When he heard that the soldiers and soldiers were coming, Song Xian was also stunned. Now they are in a hostile relationship. They are fighting fiercely to compete for Jiaozhou. Now you come here, what are you going to do?
"Song Xian, why don't you just capture him and give that old boy Shi Xie half of Cangwu County? I'm sure he will agree."
Cao Xing glanced at Song Xian from the side, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"Don't worry, let's see him before we talk."
Although Song Xian didn't say anything, his thoughts were the same as Cao Xing's. If Shiwu came here for nothing else and just wanted to surrender, then I'd be sorry. I'd have to take you down and move to another place.
Not long after, Shiwu was brought to Song Xian.
"The soldiers pay homage to the two generals."
The warriors directly saluted Song Xian and Cao Xing with clasped fists.
"Shiwu, you also know that our current relationship is like fire and water. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are on the same level. If you don't bring anything interesting to me here, you may just throw yourself into a trap."
Song Xian was not polite and went directly to Shi Wu to show off his cards. If you have nothing to say, don't blame yourself.
"Generals, please rest assured. I am not here to ask you to surrender, but to negotiate for peace."
Shiwu glanced at Song Xian, then smiled at him and directly stated the purpose of the peace talks.
"Peace talks?
We are preparing to attack again. I think peace talks are unnecessary. Come here and capture the soldiers and warriors for me."
When he heard that Shiwu wanted to negotiate peace, Song Xian shook his head. As expected, there was nothing that interested him, so he sent people to capture Shiwu.
"Wait a minute."
Shiwu was immediately confused. He originally thought that the other party would be interested when he said the word "peace talks", but he didn't expect that he would immediately send someone to capture him.
Hearing Shi Wu's shouting, Song Xian waved his hand directly to stop the rushing soldiers.
"We know that General Lu Bu has strong soldiers and horses, but it is difficult to break through Gaoyao and Fengyang's defense and advance into Cangwu County."
"It's not difficult. As long as we capture you, I believe it's possible to trade half of Cangwu County with Shi Xie. What do you think?"
Cao Xing's words almost choked the soldiers to death. I'm here to negotiate peace with you, but you want to trade me for territory. You are so disrespectful.
"Even if you arrest my eldest brother, the Shi family will not compromise. The reason why I came here is actually because I got a piece of news.
Yuan Shu has already won in Yizhou, and the next step will be to send his army south to prepare to attack Jiaozhou, so I took the risk to come to Sihui in order to put aside the past grudges with General Lu Bu and join forces to fight against the coming Yuan Shu."
