Chapter 1230 Yu Jin's Intention

In late August, Xu Shu led an army of 100,000 people and set off from Moling, heading north towards Xuzhou.

Xu Shu suddenly sent out troops, which made Li Tong and Yu Jin, who were far away in Shouchun, nervous.

Governor's Mansion, in the hall.

Yu Jin and Li Tong sat above the hall, one on the left and one on the right. Below the hall sat a group of civil servants and generals. Han Hao and Shi Huan came with Yu Jin and had a higher status, different from the other generals.

In the hall, stood a middle-aged man.

This man's name was Yang Chi, and he was the chief secretary of the governor Li Tong.

Yang Chi held his head high and said loudly: "General Yu, I think that Xu Shu led one hundred thousand Shu troops to Xuzhou. Due to emotions and reasons, both public and private, we must send troops to rescue. If Xuzhou is captured, the east side of Yangzhou will be peaceful."

We will face the Shu army in the south, and if something goes wrong in Yuzhou, Yangzhou will be even more precarious. Please think twice, General Yu."

Li Tong looked solemn and nodded and said: "Master Yang's words make sense. I think we should increase the number of troops in Xuzhou to assist the Xuzhou governor to repel the Shu army and ensure the safety of Xuzhou. This also ensures the safety of Yangzhou."

He looked at Yu Jin and asked, "General Yu, what do you think?"

Li Tong was the governor of Yangzhou and was in charge of military and political affairs in Yangzhou. However, Yu Jin had a special status and was equivalent to an imperial envoy in later generations, with arbitrary power. There was also a hundred thousand troops stationed outside Shouchun City brought by Yu Jin, who was obviously more powerful than Li Tong.

Li Tong could not be arbitrary and arbitrary, he had to consult Yu Jin for his opinions.

Yu Jin shook his head and said unceremoniously: "Li Cishi, I don't agree to send troops."

Li Tong raised his eyebrows and asked, "General Yu, why is this?"

Yang Chi also immediately asked: "General Yu, the safety of Xuzhou is related to the safety of Yangzhou. The two states have a close relationship. Once Xuzhou falls, Yangzhou will be in danger. General Yu, please think twice!"

"Asshole!"

Yu Jin slapped his hand on the desk and shouted suddenly.

Yang Chi frowned, without any fear, looking straight at Yu Jin, waiting for Yu Jin's explanation.

Li Tong was also a little unhappy. He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked: "General Yu, why don't you send troops? There must be a reason. You can't stop the soldiers from going to war just by saying not to send troops."

Yu Jin nodded slightly when he saw Li Tong surrendering.

His eyes swept around the hall, and finally fell on Yang Chi. He said in a deep voice: "Yang Chi, you keep saying that Xuzhou has fallen and Yangzhou is in danger. Could it be that the walls of Xuzhou are made of paper? When you encounter the Shu army,

Just collapse, what kind of logic is this? The governor of Xuzhou was appointed by His Majesty, you have to believe in His Majesty's arrangements and believe that the governor of Xuzhou has the ability to defend the territory."

"The governor of Xuzhou didn't send a message asking for help. Can we meddle in Xuzhou's affairs at will?"

"If we send out troops at will, will the country be in chaos?"

"The national laws have their own set of rules that cannot be exceeded. Your Majesty appoints officials as the governor of Xuzhou to take charge of the safety of Xuzhou. We must trust your Majesty. Even if we are worried about the safety of Xuzhou, we can send a message to your Majesty and ask your Majesty to send people to Xuzhou.

, this is the mature and prudent way to ensure the safety of Xuzhou."

"This man, don't be too high-minded. Don't think that you can do it alone. Without you, the country will continue to operate as usual and the people will still live. Such thoughts are not allowed. You must trust the governor of Xuzhou."

Yu Jin spoke loudly, in a completely instructive tone.

Yang Chi's face turned red with embarrassment, and a look of humiliation flashed in his eyes.

He wanted to refute Yu Jin loudly, but Li Tong shook his head and stopped Yang Chi with his eyes, preventing Yang Chi from continuing. Because Li Tong could see that Yu Jin was using the topic to establish Yu Jin's authority.

In fact, Li Tong supported Yang Chi's proposal.

The relationship between Yangzhou and Xuzhou is very important, and we cannot sit back and watch a crisis occur in Yangzhou.

Yu Jin looked at Li Tong and continued: "Li Shishi, we only have one hundred thousand troops, but the Shu army is more than one hundred thousand. We can also mobilize soldiers from various counties in Jiangdong. Once the troops are transferred and leave, Yangzhou may be in danger. You also know Sima Yi

It was a huge defeat, and Cao Ren was even more confused. If there is another problem in Yangzhou, will your Majesty be able to accept it?"

"The most important thing now is to do our own thing well, defend Yangzhou, and complete our mission."

"In my opinion, Xu Shu and Zhang Liao used the same strategy. Xu Shu led an army of 100,000 to attack Xuzhou with great fanfare. It was just a false shot. The real purpose was Yangzhou. As long as we send troops to rescue, we will play into Xu Shu's ambitions, which is inevitable.

If there is a collision with the Shu army, Yangzhou may also be attacked by the Shu army."

Yu Jin looked sincere and said with sincerity: "Li Shi, the situation is difficult. If you can save one thing, then save one thing. The most important thing is to save Yangzhou."

After Li Tong heard this, he felt secretly despised.

what is this?

By keeping the safety of Yangzhou, you can gain His Majesty's favor in a short period of time. Once something happens in Xuzhou, you will not be able to cover it up after all.

Li Tong also figured out that it was not that Yu Jin refused to send troops, but that he was afraid of defeat.

If Xu Shu does not attack Yangzhou, everything will have nothing to do with Yu Jin.

After all, the news of the wars in Bingzhou and Yangzhou put great pressure on Yu Jin. Because the two previous armies were defeated, the situation was turbulent. Once Yu Jin was defeated, the whole country would really be in turmoil. Especially when the news of the defeat spread

When Cao Cao heard that Yu Jin was definitely guilty, he decided not to send troops.

Li Tong waved his hand towards Yang Chi, and Yang Chi retreated.

Shi Huan and Han Hao did not stand up to persuade and acquiesced to Yu Jin's decision. In this way, Li Tong and Yu Jin temporarily reached an agreement and watched Xu Shu lead his army to attack Xuzhou.



Xu Shu led his army from Moling, crossed the Yangtze River, and entered Xuzhou.

After entering Xuzhou, Xu Shu immediately occupied Gaoyou County near Yangzhou and used it as a springboard to raid Guangling County.

In ten days, the Shu army captured Dongyang County, Sheyang County, Yandu County, and occupied most of Guangling County.

Next, Xu Shu did not continue to go north, but started to march westward based on most of Guangling County, quickly captured Xuyi County, Gaoshan County, and captured the southern boundary of Xiapi County. The Xuzhou governor was weak and powerless.

They resisted and watched helplessly as the territory south of Xuzhou was lost.

In this way, the south of Xuzhou was in Xu Shu's hands.

Xu Shu established a foothold in the south of Xuzhou and controlled the territory south of Xuzhou. It was not only in contact with the Wei army in Xuzhou, but also bordered the east of Yangzhou, and was between Yangzhou and Xuzhou.

Xu Shu continued to advance north, with the intention of capturing Xuzhou.

After the news reached Shouchun in Yangzhou, it immediately caused an uproar. Yu Jin's prediction was wrong. Xu Shu did not pretend to attack Xuzhou, but actually led his army to attack.

Governor's Mansion, in the hall.

Li Tong could no longer sit still. If he did not send troops, Xuzhou would really fall.

Yang Chi stood up and said loudly: "General Yu, the news about Xuzhou has come, what do you think we should do? Do you want to sit back and watch Xuzhou be captured by Xu Shu? That is a hundred thousand Shu army. If there is no big army to resist, even if Xuzhou has a strong defense

The city cannot be defended, and we cannot wait any longer."

Yu Jin's face was gloomy and he looked very unhappy.

Unexpectedly, Xu Shu really attacked Xuzhou, which made Yu Jin a little at a loss.

Li Tong saw that Yang Chi was speaking a little hastily, so he lowered his attitude and said: "General Yu, the overall situation is the most important. It is not too late to send troops. As long as Xuzhou can be saved, everything can be saved."

Yu Jin frowned and said, "Li Shishi, it's not that I don't understand what you're saying, but what should we do once the soldiers are defeated?"

At this time, what Yu Jin feared most was defeat.

Li Tong was angry when he saw that Yu Jin only considered one-third of his own land, so he patiently persuaded him: "General Yu, Xu Shu is attacking Yangzhou. This is forcing us to send troops and we have to save it. Regardless of success or failure, we must send troops."

. Just give the order. If it fails, I will apologize to Your Majesty and make it clear that it has nothing to do with General Yu."

Yu Jin said: "Li Shishi, why are you doing this?"

Li Tong said loudly: "It's not that Li Tong insists on doing this, but the current situation has to be like this."

Han Hao and Shi Huan looked at Li Tong with admiration in their eyes. They looked at Yu Jin with complicated expressions. In the past, they both admired Yu Jin, but Yu Jin never sent troops, which disappointed them both.

Yu Jin glanced at everyone and finally nodded in agreement.
