Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 427 Sun Ce Goes South
"Hehe, is this the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom?" Seeing the box in Sun Ce's hand, Yuan Shu's expression froze for a while, and then he showed a greedy look, walked to Sun Ce and said, "Hurry up, bring the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom here and let it go." Let me see."

"Please don't worry, general. My late father said in a dream that only if the general agrees to avenge my father, can I hand over this imperial jade seal to the general." Seeing Yuan Shu's greedy expression, Sun Ce tightened the box in his hand, Taking the opportunity to propose conditions to Yuan Shu.

"Of course, Sun Wentai and I are good brothers, and his hatred is naturally my hatred. Isn't it just to avenge Wentai for the reason that I have repeatedly raised troops these years?" Seeing that Sun Ce took the opportunity to make a request, Yuan Shu not only did not have any resentment, but went along with it. Looking at Sun Ce, he said, as if he really had a good relationship with Sun Jian.

"I heard that the general is about to launch an army to attack Liu Bei. Sun Ce is willing to lead the army to be the vanguard, recruit his father's old troops again, overcome difficulties for the general, and avenge my father at the same time. Please agree with the general." Seeing that Yuan Shu's desire to pass on the jade seal of the country has almost reached the limit. Obsessed, Sun Ce took the opportunity to reveal the real purpose of his trip.

"Hehe, well, back then Sun Wentai was my general with extraordinary combat power. With you as the vanguard today, Liu Biao will definitely be defeated. You can recruit your father's old troops again, and I will send you another [-] troops as the vanguard to attack Jingzhou. Set off today." Hearing that Sun Ce was willing to attack Liu Biao for himself, Yuan Shu's heart was moved. Although Yuan Shu was not weak in strength, he was lacking in generals, and only Ji Ling could take action. At this time, Sun Ce was willing to hand over the Imperial Seal Dedicated to himself, Yuan Shu felt that Sun Ce's loyalty was no longer a problem. As for the attack on Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Yuan Shu would not doubt Sun Ce's determination. He was sure that Liu Biao and Sun Ce had a hatred for killing his father. Could it be that he was afraid that Sun Ce would surrender? Liu Biao failed?So Yuan Shu agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you, General, for your success. I will dedicate the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom to the General. I wish the General will make further progress as soon as possible and become the true owner of the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom." Seeing Yuan Shao agreeing, Sun Ce rolled his eyes and said again.Anyone who knows the Chuanguo Jade Seal knows the meaning of the watch on the Chuanguo Jade Seal.Anyone who covets the Jade Seal of the Kingdom is unwilling to be a courtier. This was true for Sun Jian back then, and it is the same for Yuan Shu today.And Sun Ce, the son of Sun Jian, has a very thorough understanding of this kind of psychology, so he said to Yuan Shu's heart in one sentence, what is the real owner of the Chuanguo Yuxi, and the Chuanguo Yuxi is the proof that the emperor owns the world Of course, the true owner of the Chuanguo Yuxi is not only the Chuanguo Yuxi, but also the world, to be called the true owner of the Chuanguo Yuxi. Sun Ce understands this, Yuan Shu understands, and Yuan Shu's counselors present also know it, but it is No one wants to tell the truth.

"Hahaha, quickly show me the Jade Seal of Chuanguo." Hearing Sun Ce's words, Yuan Shu felt very useful. Although he has not yet publicly broken with the Han Dynasty, anyone can see that the princes of the world are doing their own things, and the Han Dynasty is nothing more than There is nothing on the surface, the reason why everyone maintains the status quo is because all the princes are unwilling to be the target of public criticism, and bear the notoriety of rebellion, it is the kingly way that they must get rich and rich.But even so, Yuan Shu's heart had already been moved by the king's heart, but he didn't have that kind of power for a while.

Under the gaze of Yuan Shu's eager eyes, Sun Ce finally handed over the box containing the Chuan Guo Yuxi to Yuan Shu's hands. Yuan Shu took the box with both hands, opened the box impatiently, and took out the Chuan Guo Yuxi to play with.

"This is the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, it is really the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom." When Yuan Shu was playing with it, everyone around Yuan Shu cast surprised eyes, and they were amazed as Yuan Shu played with it.

"Pass down the order, and Sun Ce will be promoted to Lieutenant of the Guard for his meritorious deeds." After a while, Yuan Shu sent an order to promote Sun Ce's official position after finishing playing with the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. It was obvious that Yuan Shu was really happy today.

"General, Sun Ce has great ambitions. How can the general let Sun Ce lead the troops alone? Please think carefully and take it back." Seeing Sun Ce leave with satisfaction, Yuan Shu calmed down. Wei Zhongdao stood up and faced Yuan Shu. Said one hand.

"Hehe, does Sun Ce have great ambitions? Yes, he does have great ambitions, but his ambition is only to kill Liu Biao. This ambition is already ambitious enough for Sun Ce, a brat. As for the others, I don't care. Come out." Listening to Wei Zhongdao saying that Sun Ce has great ambitions, Yuan Shu seemed to have heard nonsense and said jokingly.But then Yuan Shu played with the Chuanguo Yuxi in front of him and said: "I think this Chuanguo Yuxi was preserved by Sun Jian at the time, and Sun Ce dedicated it to me. What kind of ambition can such a Sun Ce have? If you want to avenge Sun Jian, what else can you do besides relying on me? He is not Sun Jian." After speaking, Yuan Shu's mouth was full of sneers, obviously not paying attention to Wei Zhongdao's words.

"Ah, it's my subordinate who didn't think well." Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Wei Zhongdao could only shake his head helplessly, admitting his mistake.Although I still felt that Yuan Shu had underestimated Sun Ce, it was meaningless to continue talking about it. Naturally, Wei Zhongdao would no longer argue with Yuan Shu about these matters.It is certain that Wei Zhongdao's purpose of staying with Yuan Shu is to avenge Lu Bu.

A few days later, a 2-man army set off from Yuzhou and headed straight for Xinye, Jingzhou. This army was none other than the vanguard led by Sun Ce to attack Jingzhou.Just as this army passed by Anping Town, suddenly a group of soldiers hula la surrounded them from all directions.Seeing that these men and horses were not wearing formal attire, but just ordinary civilian attire, this made the soldiers very strange.But at this moment, a middle-aged man walked out of the crowd in front of him.

"General Huang Gai, are you here?" Seeing the figure of this middle-aged man, Sun Ce from the army rode out, came to the middle-aged man and said, clasping his hands.

"Major General, I see you again." Seeing Sun Ce, Huang Gai was obviously very happy, and there were tears in his eyes. Since Sun Jian died in the battle, the old people who followed Sun Jian parted ways, some continued to follow Sun Ce, and some continued to follow Sun Ce. But Huang Gai settled down in the surrounding area, and after entering Yuan Shujun, Huang Gai saw that Sun Ce was not being reused, so he left angrily. After receiving Sun Ce's call, he contacted the old man everywhere, and finally saw Sun Ce here.

"Old general, you have worked hard these years. I, Sun Ce, have escaped from trouble today. I will surely regain my old glory and complete my father's great cause." Looking at the dusty Huang Gai in front of him, Sun Ce said gratefully.Then, under the leadership of Huang Gai, Sun Ce and the people behind Huang Gai saluted.Sun Ce understands that these people are the strength he can rely on and the cornerstone of his future success.

"With the addition of these people, Brother Xian can truly control this army." Looking at the troops in front of him, Zhou Yu came behind Sun Ce and said.

"Brother Lao Xian will arrange this matter." Su Sun Ce naturally understood what Zhou Yu meant, and wanted to use the people brought by Huang Gai in front of him to firmly control the [-] soldiers Yuan Shu sent to him.So he nodded to Zhou Yu and said.

After receiving the information that Yuan Shu was about to attack Jingzhou and that Sun Ce had set off with troops, Liu Biao quickly dispatched troops to gather at the border of Jingzhou.

But what no one expected was that when Sun Ce brought Yuan Shao's [-] troops into the Xinye border, he suddenly disappeared without a trace.

A month later, on the wharf of the Lujiang River, a large ship slowly left the port of Lujiang River and sailed towards the south of the Yangtze River. A handsome figure was standing on the bow of the boat, looking at the Lujiang River where the bamboo slips were going away, with a solemn expression.

"Why, brother Xian is a bit reluctant before leaving?" At this time, a young figure in the cabin came out, holding two glasses of wine in his hand, and said after handing the raised one to the young man standing on the bow .This person was none other than Zhou Yu, and the boy from Jiangbei who had been standing at the bow of the boat watching was none other than Sun Ce.

"I'm thinking, when will I come back after this trip. I left too many things here." Looking at Jiangbei where the bamboo slips have gone away, Sun Ce's mood is a bit complicated. Although his time in Jiangbei is not long , but left too many memories, these memories are destined to never be forgotten in his life.

"We will be back soon. Although my uncle has passed away, he has excellent connections in the south of the Yangtze River. As long as Brother Xian raises his arms, plus the people we brought from Yuan Shu this time, I believe it will not be a few years. We can dominate the south of the Yangtze River, and then I will help Brother Xian come back and settle all the hatred in the past." Looking at Sun Ce's somewhat complicated expression, Zhou Yu said slowly, obviously, he already had a plan in mind for the future. Care about.

While Sun Ce was leaving Lujiang by boat, Yuan Shu was sulking in the big tent outside Xinye City.

"A bunch of trash. After such a long time, even a small Xinye can't be taken down. What use do I need you for?" Looking at the generals and advisers in front of him, Yuan Shu shouted angrily.Originally, Yuan Shu was just about to attack Jingzhou, but Sun Ce sent the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo, so Yuan Shu thought it was the favor of the heavens, indicating that he had the aura of domineering, but unexpectedly, when Yuan Shu got the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo, First, Sun Ce disappeared with his [-] soldiers and horses, and then Yuan Shu led his army straight to Xinye, but at this time the reinforcements of the Jingzhou Army were fully in place, so that even though Yuan Shu attacked Xinye City for days, it was still there. Nothing works.

"Report to the general, it's not good. There is a military report from Wancheng, saying that Lu Bu's army is gathering in the direction of Wancheng, asking for reinforcements." Just as Yuan Shu was losing his temper, suddenly a soldier rushed in and asked Yuan Shu uttered a piece of news that shocked Yuan Shu.
