Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 426
"Please, Mr. Cao, hand over the affairs of Puyang to me. I will definitely train an elite army for Mr. Cao in the shortest possible time, so as to help Mr. Cao conquer the world." Guo Jia just nodded and said to him. Cao Cao said solemnly.

A few days later, Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou with his troops, handed over the matter of Puyang to Guo Jia, and reorganized all the Yellow Turbans who had surrendered this time. The population of Yanzhou, since then Cao Cao's strength has increased greatly, and he does not appear weak in the face of Lu Bu and Yuan Shao.

At the same time, in Yuan Shu's mansion in Yuzhou, a group of generals were also discussing the current situation.

"My lord, Lv Bu is ambitious, and now he is sending troops to Sizhou to unify Dong Zhuo's hometown. As a famous man, the general must find a way to stop Lv Bu. If Lv Bu can gain a firm foothold in Sizhou, I'm afraid he will attack our army immediately. Not good." After receiving the information that Lv Bu sent troops to Sizhou, Wei Zhongdao rushed to Yuan Shu's side and reported to Yuan Shu that the reason why Wei Zhongdao defected to Yuan Shu's side was to avenge Lv Bu, and it was only because Lv Bu left Sizhou with Dong Zhuo. There was no chance of revenge. At this time when Lu Bu sent troops to Yongzhou, Wei Zhongdao had no reason not to encourage Yuan Shu to send troops.

"Well, Lu Bu must have come here with bad intentions, but with Cao Cao in Yanzhou and Yuan Shao in Jizhou, Lu Bu won't be able to threaten us for a while, but Liu Biao in Jingzhou is always thinking about taking Wancheng back, so he can't do anything. It is a thorn in our army's side, as long as we can pull out Liu Biao in Jingzhou, we can concentrate on dealing with Lu Bu without any worries." Although Wei Zhongdao really wanted to provoke a war between Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, and then urged the princes to attack Lu Bu, Yuan Shu However, his thoughts were obviously not on Lu Bu. From Yuan Shu's point of view, as long as he could win Liu Biao in Jingzhou, he would be able to rule half of the Han Dynasty. At that time, he would not care about Lu Bu.

"Although Liu Biao is hateful, it's just that our army and Liu Biao's army have fought against each other for several times, and I'm afraid we may not be able to win Jingzhou." Seeing that Yuan Shu insisted on taking Jingzhou first, and then considering other things, Wei Zhongdao could only He persuaded again, that over the years, there must have been many wars between Yuan Shu and Liu Biao, but the two sides often just fought evenly. In Wei Zhongdao's view, Liu Biao is just a city defender. Such a person does not have much ambition. There is no need to waste too much experience on Liu Biao.

"Hmph, what do you know, the nine prefectures of Jingzhou are rich and the people are strong. As long as I get Jingzhou, I will have inexhaustible wealth and soldiers. What's the benefit of me going to fight Lu Bu? After that battle, Sizhou is just a mess, besides I, Yuan Shu, am happy here, why go to Sizhou to see the faces of other princes." Seeing Wei Zhongdao's persuasion again, Yuan Shu roared unhappily, and then said: "Order all places to quickly collect military rations, and within a month, I want to conquer Jingzhou Liu Biao myself." Obviously, Yuan Shu's brute strength came up, and he decided to conquer Jingzhou without discussing with his subordinates.

Yuan Shu's words quickly spread among Yuan Shu's army, but it caught the attention of a young man who was drinking in a restaurant. This person was none other than Sun Jian's eldest son, Sun Ce.It turned out that Sun Jian rushed all the way back to Changsha after getting the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, but he was attacked by Liu Biao on the way, so that Sun Jian died, but Sun Ce had no choice but to take the remaining generals and soldiers to join Yuan Shu. Be a small official under his command.

"Hehe, it seems that Yuan Shu is going to attack Jingzhou again, but I don't understand what is wrong with Yuan Shu, and he wants to conquer Jingzhou himself." Knowing that Yuan Shu is going to conquer Jingzhou in person, he sat opposite Sun Ce in the restaurant, and Sun Ce was A handsome young man who was drinking, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and said with a smile.

"I wish I could tear that Liu Biao's body into pieces, but even though I have been under Yuan Shu's tent for many years, I will not be trusted by Yuan Shu after all. I am afraid that Yuan Shu will not have my part in sending troops this time." Hearing the handsome young man's words, Sun Ce was a little depressed Said, it is obvious that the hatred for Liu Biao has made Sun Ce very tormented all these years.

"The enmity between parents is irreconcilable. There is nothing wrong with Xianxiong thinking that way, but have you ever thought that General Sun's famous name, if he knows his child and only wants to use the power of others to avenge himself, then Jiuquanzhi Will General Sun feel relieved? Or will he feel ashamed?" Looking at Sun Ce who was tortured by hatred in front of him, the handsome young man beside him said in a deep voice.

"Zhou Yu, what did you say?" Sun Ce was startled when he heard the young man in front of him say that, his eyes flashed coldly, and he said with a slow-faced wrath.

It turned out that the person sitting opposite Sun Ce was none other than Sun Ce's close friend Zhou Yu.

"If Brother Xian only thinks of using other people's power to avenge his uncle, then he has never known me, Zhou Yu. If Brother Xian wants to achieve a career and then rely on his own strength to avenge his uncle, Zhou Yu is always ready to help you." Give me a helping hand." Zhou Yu didn't show any expression when he saw Sun Ce's anger, but said calmly.

"Although I have been under Yuan Shu's tent for many years, I still think about Jiang Dong's elders all the time. It's just that Yuan Shu has strict control over my whereabouts. I'm afraid it won't be easy for me to leave." Sun Ce finally calmed down after a while. Then he said to Zhou Yu.In recent years, Sun Ce has not been taken seriously under Yuan Shu's account, which made Sun Ce long ago thought about leaving Yuan Shu, but this matter is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, although it seems that Sun Ce is not imprisoned by Yuan Shu, but But there were always people watching Sun Ce's whereabouts, which made it not so easy for Sun Ce to get away from Yuan Shu.

"Hahaha, it's a simple matter, it depends on whether Brother Xian is willing or not." Sun Ce just expressed his difficulties, but Zhou Yu didn't expect that he didn't care and laughed. Obviously, Zhou Yu already had some ideas about this matter. Care about.

"Since my virtuous brother has a solution, why don't you tell me quickly." Sun Ce asked hastily after hearing this.

"The reason why Yuan Shu is staring at Brother Xian is because he is interested in the Imperial Jade Seal. As long as Brother Xian hands over the Imperial Seal to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu will naturally not pay attention to Brother Xian. Brother Xian can go anywhere. Seeing Sun Ce's eager question, Zhou Yu stared at Sun Ce in front of him and said.

"This?" The matter of Chuanguo Yuxi is a secret of the Sun family. Even in the family, only Sun Ce and the dead Sun Jian know about it. Naturally, it is impossible for Sun Ce to tell others. As for how Zhou Yu knew, Sun Ce Naturally there is no way of knowing, but Sun Ce understands that it must not be someone on his side who said it, and those who know about it must be old people who are loyal to the Sun family.However, in the face of Zhou Yu, a close friend, Sun Ce was only melancholy for a moment, and then said: "This imperial jade seal was obtained by my father at the expense of his life. It is my father's relic. How could it be given to others casually?"

"Hehe, this Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom is indeed invaluable, and should not be given to others casually, but if Brother Xian gives the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom to Yuan Shu at this time, there will be a good chance." Seeing that Sun Ce did not deny that he owns the Jade Seal of the Nation Zhou Yu was greatly comforted by the matter, which shows that Sun Ce really trusts Zhou Yu, and is willing to share his future and even his life with Zhou Yu. Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu no longer hesitated, and made up his mind to help Sun Ce and work with Sun Ce. Climb to the pinnacle of power in the Han Empire.

After saying this, Zhou Yu stood up, came to Sun Ce's side, lay on Sun Ce's ear, whispered, and saw Sun Ce showing a satisfied smile for a long time.

Early the next morning, Sun Ce, led by soldiers, walked into Yuan Shu's mansion with a bundle.

"Sun Ce, you're here, what can I do for you?" Seeing Sun Ce walking in, Yuan Shu smiled slightly and said.

Although Yuan Shu took in Sun Ce in the first place to get the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, after so many years, he did not get any news about the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, so that even Yuan Shu felt that the fact that Sun Jian got the Jade Seal of the Kingdom of Chuan was just a rumor .

"General Qi, after the young one heard the news that the general wanted to conquer Liu Biao himself, the young one rushed to my father's grave to worship, and told my father the good news by the way. I never thought that I would get my father's dream last night. My father said , The general’s dispatch of troops this time is a good opportunity for me to avenge my father, so I must ask for a forward job in front of the general, and lead the troops to avenge my father.” Seeing Yuan Shu’s plain gaze, Sun Ce lay on the ground, and put Zhou Yu’s words on the table yesterday. The story told.

"Really? Your father really has a heart. He asked you to avenge him in a dream. Didn't he tell you where the Chuanguo Yuxi is?" Hearing Sun Ce's story, Yuan Shu just raised his eyelids lazily. , Said a non-painful sentence, Yuan Shu was not interested in knowing whether Sun Ce wanted revenge, but Yuan Shu cared a lot about Chuanguo Yuxi, although this idea seemed a bit vague to Yuan Shu.

"Eh? How did the general know what I said to my father?" Sun Ce was startled when he heard Yuan Shu's words, and continued to ask in great surprise.

"What? Did your father really tell you in a dream?" Yuan Shu just opened his mouth casually to make fun of Sun Ce, but unexpectedly, it had an effect. He stood up from his seat all of a sudden, Yuan Shu's desire for the imperial seal It was too strong, and Yuan Shu was too yearning for the legend that if he got the jade seal, he could get the world. This made Yuan Shu couldn't help being surprised and paying attention to the news after hearing the news.

"That's right, my father has already told me where the Chuan Guo Yuxi is hidden, and I brought the Chuan Guo Yuxi here as soon as possible. According to my father's instructions, I will hand it over to the general." While speaking, Sun Ce stretched out his hand Take out an exquisite box from the baggage around you.Holding it in the hand, the eyes of everyone around were immediately attracted by the box.
