Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 534

If Fei Qian was troubled by being exploited, and Li Jue and Guo Si had a hard time choosing which side to fall to, then for Sun Jian, there are not many directions to choose on the road ahead of him.

Although Zhou Ang was defeated, the overall situation did not change much.Although Sun Jian won, he actually lost.

Yuan Shu didn't want Sun Jian to rush into Luoyang before, because it cut off Sun Jian's food and grass supply once, forcing Sun Jian to meet Yuan Shu alone.

but now……

Luoyang has become a ruin.

Not only that, but the area around Luoyang is about [-] miles away, deserted...

The bleakness of marching for a whole day without even seeing a single person put great psychological pressure on Sun Jian's troops and gradually caused some panic.

This kind of pressure, for generals, will be more or less self-control, but for those illiterate soldiers, this invisible emotion will make people feel lonely and powerless, as if they are not fighting with people, but It's like fighting against heaven and earth.

Of course, those corpses and bones in the wild, on the side of the road, under the yellow grass, cannot be counted as human beings.

The wilderness is deserted and empty.

There are villages and villages, but the same door is wide open, there is no smoke, all are empty houses, and the window lintels that have not been repaired are like arms that have been cut off but are only connected to a little skin, and they will not be severed from the house. , swaying weakly in the wind.

The only life is two or three wild dogs with rotten fur, red and cloudy eyes, barking at everything...

Large tracts of land are barren and overgrown with weeds.

Ordinary soldiers just feel panic in their hearts, but they don't necessarily know what they are panicking about, and why this panic comes from, but as Sun Jian, he knows very well that this panic comes from worrying about the future.

In other words, the next thing to face is a battle with only attrition and no supplies.

There is no one, no food, no supplies for the troops to replenish, even if a nail is broken, there may not be a substitute for it...

Sun Jian was in great pain and lost.

The people in Yangcheng have basically escaped.

Dong Zhuo first sent soldiers to massacre Yangshe, and a group of people ran away; later, Li Min was defeated by Xu Rong, and another group ran away; the governor of Yuzhou Kong Ni died, and many people saw that the situation was getting worse, and another group ran away; Some time ago, Yuan Shao sent Zhou Ang to attack, and then there were some who couldn't move...

This used to be the territory he dreamed of, a real area that belonged to him, but now he has to abandon it with his own hands, because not abandoning it is tantamount to seeking his own death...

He also once stood on the hall of power of the great Han, and he once planted the flag on the capital, but now it has no meaning, because it has been burned into a black ground...

Except that side Yuxi.

Sun Jian clenched his fists tightly, his arms trembling slightly.

Although Yuan Shu didn't send anyone to discuss any issues, the supply of food and grass was cut off.

According to Sun Jian's understanding of Yuan Shu, this proud disciple of the Guan family is not even willing to bend down to talk about an exchange of benefits. He knows that Yuxi is with Sun Jian, but he feels that if he stretches out his hand, he will lose face to Yuan Shu, just like Such a move will make Yuan Shu behave like those merchants eager for quick success...

Therefore, Yuan Shu behaved very calmly, as if the jade seal was already in his hands.

The original Yuan Shu, when he first arrived in Nanyang, was tied up by a Nanyang prefect. He had to use Sun Jian's sword to undo the shackles of his hands and feet.

But now Yuan Shu is full of guests, and the banquet in the government office has never stopped at all. The people who come from various regions are lined up respectfully, waiting...

Yuan Shu seems to be the only opponent, and the rest is Yuan Shao, as for the others...

Why is the world so unfair!

Sun Jian slapped the table with a "bang", which attracted the eyes of the other three generals in the hall.

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang.

There was also a vacant seat, which used to belong to Zu Mao.

Sun Jian cast his eyes on the empty position, while Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang waited for Sun Jian to make the final decision.

First, hand over the jade seal, and it is almost certain that Yuan Shu will restore the supply of grain and grass.

Second, evacuating from Yangcheng means losing the title of governor of Yuzhou again...

It is a huge and cruel irony to just give up the territory in your hands as if you have won the battle as if you have lost it.

At that time, Zhou Ang only needs to send a team of soldiers to recover Yangcheng easily...

Could it be that he can only hand in this square seal?

Hand over Zu Mao's life and the lives of many soldiers, the seal representing the authority of the Han royal family?
Then, he completely lowered his head, turned over, put away his minions, exposed his belly, and became a loyal dog under Yuan Shu's legs?
Is this what Sun Jian and I finally wanted to get when we came out of Changsha with our brothers and soldiers?
become……

a dog?

"Demou..." Sun Jian said, "In your opinion, what should we do?" Cheng Pu is the oldest, and he is quite prestigious in the eyes of both generals and soldiers, so Sun Jian hesitated at the moment. When making a decision, I also want to listen to it and refer to Cheng Pu's thoughts.

Cheng Pu stroked his beard and said solemnly: "It was once said that when things are difficult to decide, you should ask your heart. My lord can act according to your heart."

Sun Jian smiled and said, "...Ask a certain heart?"

There are many scenery and thorns in the journey of a lifetime, but can you keep moving forward firmly towards the original goal in accordance with the desire in your heart when you just embarked on this road?
Giving up is easy, but knowing what to give up is not easy.

"Together with the righteous soldiers, we will save the country. The rebels are broken and everyone is like this, I will be the one and fight!" Sun Jian sighed, closed his eyes, and a tear slowly fell from the corner of his eyes.

After a long time, Sun Jian said word by word: "Public refusal, pass on an order from a certain general... Gather your troops, pack your bags, and prepare to retreat."

Huang Gai was silent for a while, also speechless, and walked away with fists folded.

Historical records: "Zhuo Xun moved his capital to the west and entered the pass, burning Luoyi. Jian then went forward to Luo, built various mausoleums, and excavated by Sai Zhuo. After that, he led the army back and lived in Luyang."

This was the closest Sun Jian was to the center of the Great Han in his life. Since then, he has gradually drifted away, and he has never been able to set foot on this land again...

　This is the closest the tyrants in the south of the Yangtze River in the Han Dynasty came to the state power...

　　PS: Talk about an architectural related...

　　One night, two parties, Party A, went around asking for pictures in the middle of the night, so they had to work overtime on Friday until Saturday morning at [-]:[-] am to complete the drawing at [-]:[-] am, and to go to bed at [-]:[-] am. It was very painful.

　　It’s only nine minutes after ten o’clock Party A’s eight text messages, seven phone calls, six adjustments, five drawings, four hours, three texts, two days, and only one hour of sleep on weekends
