Domination of the Three Kingdoms

144 Chapter 1
Seeing Sun Jian walk out of the big tent like this, no one stepped forward to stop him.Yuan Shao wanted to stop him, but in this situation, who would stand by him, and who would help him?

Cao Cao, who originally supported him the most, has now become ignorant of him, let alone helping him to offend Sun Jian.As for the others, what they said on Yuan Shao's side basically didn't carry much weight, so Yuan Shao could only watch helplessly as Yuxi, who had obtained it, ran away.

Although the Youzhou Army did not explicitly stand on Sun Jian's side, even the mighty Youzhou Army did not say to stop Sun Jian, let alone the others.

In fact, this matter looks very simple, but secretly, everyone has their own thoughts.

Yuan Shu didn't want his elder brother to get the jade seal so easily, so he stopped Yuan Shao. As long as Sun Jian returned to Jiangdong, the jade seal would probably be his.

As for Cao Cao, after going through this series of events, he also saw Yuan Shao's face clearly. Now Yuan Shao has a big family and a great reputation. If Yuan Shao gets the jade seal at this time, it will be like a tiger with wings added.Therefore, Cao Cao did not want to see Yuxi fall into Yuan Shao's hands.

More importantly, as long as Yuxi is not in Yuan Shao's hands, Cao Cao believes that he has a chance to get Yuxi.

As for the Gongsun father and son, they didn't want to see Yuan Shao grow stronger, and they didn't want to offend Sun Jian. Anyway, Sun Jian's power was still very weak.

Therefore, it is better to sell Sun Jian's favor now. Sun Jian's territory has nothing to do with Youzhou and Bingzhou. There will be no conflicts and conflicts between the two armies for the time being. On the other hand, Yuan Shao is different. Yuan Shao is now trying to infiltrate the power When you go to Jizhou, it will be bordered by Youzhou and Bingzhou, and conflicts of interest are inevitable.

After Sun Jian left, the big tent suddenly became deserted. The farce just now had completely disturbed everyone's nature.Especially Yuan Shao.

Since the alliance, Yuan Shao has always played the role of the leader of the alliance, respected by the princes and admired by thousands of people.Although there were a few times during this period, his limelight was overshadowed by Gongsun Xu and the Youzhou Army, but fortunately, Gongsun Xu had a sense of proportion in his work, at least he would take care of not doing things to the extreme.

However, Sun Jian was different.Sun Jian directly made it clear that he wanted to fight against Yuan Shao, even without Yuan Shao's permission, he would withdraw his troops.Yuan Shao's prestige was gone immediately. Now, if Yuan Shao issues an order, it is unknown how many people will obey it.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Yuan Shao was going to say a few words to ease the atmosphere. After all, only Sun Jian left, but it hadn't completely affected the overall situation.As long as the next people obey the order, Yuan Shao can continue to be his majestic leader.

Yuan Shao looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone, Sun Jian is a traitor who doesn't listen to orders and thinks highly of himself. Today, he retreated privately, completely ignoring that his pursuit of Dong Daye has not yet been completed. We don't need to care about this man's claim of loyalty. Sun Jian is alone. , this discussion of Dong Daye will continue. What do you guys think?"

Seeing that other people dared not answer, at this time, Gongsun Xu stood up and saluted Yuan Shao: "Leader, since the alliance, our soldiers in Youzhou have been fighting at the forefront. The soldiers are loyal to the country, and they all forget their lives. Fight with the enemy army.

Today, our Youzhou Army has a very high battle loss rate, and many soldiers have been injured but have not received proper treatment.The attrition rate of the horses is also extremely high. Even so, our army will continue to fight Dong Zhuo to the end.

However, for the sake of safety and to maintain the combat effectiveness of our army, I would like to send the wounded soldiers back to Bingzhou, and the other uninjured soldiers will stay. My father and son will continue to obey the leader's orders here.

However, the dead and wounded in battle, I must send them back first, this is the custom of our Youzhou army, I beg the leader for permission. "

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Xu bent down and saluted.This posture is already quite low. If Yuan Shao does not agree, I am afraid that if Gongsun and his son pat their asses and say they want to leave, no one will dare to stop them.

Yuan Shao naturally understood that Gongsun Xu was making a request on the surface, but in fact he was just talking to Yuan Shao. This was Gongsun Xu taking Yuan Shao's face into consideration.Facing such a humble Gongsun Xu, Yuan Shao naturally cooperated very well.

Although he was still a bit reluctant in his heart, Yuan Shao replied very cooperatively: "The soldiers of Youzhou are loyal to the country, and the dead and injured should be properly arranged. General Hussars' request is not an exaggeration. I agree. General Hussars can arrange things by himself. If there is not enough food and grass, he can go directly to the general to get it.

It is necessary to ensure that every soldier is properly arranged, so that the people of the world cannot feel that these soldiers who died for the country will not die well. "

Gongsun Xu once again saluted and accepted the order, and it was as expected by Gongsun Xu. In this situation, Yuan Shao will try his best to win over whoever he can, especially the heavyweight princes. Yuan Shao has also learned his lesson and will not easily offend anyone. up.

After the matter of Gongsun Xu was resolved, Cao Cao also came up with a similar opinion. He would also send the war dead back to his hometown. Of course, Cao Cao would still stay with the rest of the troops.

Although Cao Cao was angry and wanted to leave yesterday, in the current situation, it is not easy to leave, unless Cao Cao is going to fall out with Yuan Shao directly like Sun Jian, but in the current situation, it seems unnecessary, so, Cao Cao can only ask for this.

After the two big men, Gongsun Xu and Cao Cao, spoke, the rest of the people didn't have any further opinions.Sun Jian's departure is actually a good thing for others. At least, Sun Jian's territory in Luoyang City is considered vacant, and other princes have the opportunity to step in and gain some benefits.

After everyone's discussion, Yuan Shao celebrated his achievements as usual. At the same time, in order to win over Gongsun Xu and Cao Cao, Yuan Shao naturally wanted to give them a big reward. However, Yuan Shao didn't give any real things, they were all empty titles.

For example, Gongsun Xu has now become a general of hussars, just adding a big character. Yuan Shao did not give any other rewards such as food and gold. As for Cao Cao, he was also promoted. Substantial things, I'm afraid I'll have to grab it myself.

After the work here was done, everyone drank until midnight and dispersed. Cao Cao learned his lesson and didn't mention the matter of continuing to attack Dong Zhuo at all. Gongsun Xu naturally didn't mention his arrangements in Bingzhou. Here No one knows that Liu Bian has been rescued.

After the crowd dispersed, Gongsun Xu immediately found Tai Shici and asked him to prepare to leave camp and return to Bingzhou, and Tai Shici immediately became busy.

In the early morning of the next day, when the other princes were still sleeping in their tents, Gongsun Xu had already got up early, and he brought Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and other generals to the barracks.

Tai Shici had assembled his troops and was ready to go, and they were all waiting for Gongsun Xu to make the final arrangements.

Gongsun Xu came in front of the crowd, looked at Tai Shici and Guan Yu, and said, "Yun Chang, Ziyi, I have to wrong you this time. It is a hard job to escort these books back. All I can do is try my best to satisfy you." Your requirements in terms of food, grass and ordnance, as for the strength of the troops, including the wounded and dead, I can only give you [-].

However, as the lord, I ask you to deliver these books to Zhengfang safely. Of course, what I said is actually exaggerating the matter. These books are not worth much at all, and no one will come to me for this. The Youzhou army became hostile.

However, in addition to man-made disasters, you also have to prevent natural disasters. I have already heard that the construction of the Library Pavilion in Youzhou will take two or three years. Therefore, these books will be temporarily parked in Bingzhou until I get them here. After the matter is resolved, I will return to Bingzhou to have a round with you. "

Guan Yu, Tai Shici directly knelt down to accept the orders and said: "The last general should have followed the lord to protect the safety of the lord, but now, the last general has accepted the order of the lord, if you can't even complete this errand, the last general To wait is to live up to the cultivation of the lord.

Please rest assured, my lord, these books will be delivered to Bingzhou in their entirety. Even if the affirmative party doesn't ask the folks to help, we will still ship the books to Bingzhou. "

Gongsun Xu nodded after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "With the two of you here, I will naturally feel at ease. Of course, I also understand that you may not understand why I waste so much human and financial resources to protect these books.

Even, in order to collect more books, our army spent nearly three layers of food and grass in exchange for horses some time ago. I know that you have doubts in your heart now, but please believe me, at most five In [-], you will know that what we get will be tens of millions of times what we paid today. "

"The last general will take orders by himself, and will never question the lord." More than 1 soldiers and all the generals and generals knelt down and continued to salute Gongsun.

An hour later, Gongsun Xu sent the enemy about Tai Shici twenty miles away and returned with his army.He couldn't leave too far, after all Yuan Shao was still staring at the Youzhou Army, especially now, the Youzhou Army only had [-] cavalry left.

Looking at the evacuated camp, Gongsun sighed, and then asked Zhao Yun, "Have you sent the letter?"

Zhao Yun nodded and replied: "I have already sent ten soldiers to sneak in with Yun Chang's army. I believe that as long as they hurry up, they can still catch up with General Sun Jian and the others. There’s nothing you can do.”

Gongsun Xu nodded with a smile and said, "There's only so much I can do, the rest is up to fate."

On the other side, in Yuan Shao's big tent, Yuan Shao asked Gao Lan who was kneeling below: "How is it? Gongsun Xu and the others have some tricks."

Gao Lan replied: "The last general disguised himself and followed him for twenty miles, and then came back with the Hussar General. They didn't do anything else."

Yuan Shao nodded after hearing this, expressing that he understood,,,,,,
