Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 452 Yuan Shu Sends Troops
In Yuan Shu's mansion in Shouchun, the sound of silk and bamboo came and went, and graceful figures were coming and going in front of Yuan Shu.Yuan Shu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then stretched out his hand to pull a graceful figure passing by into his arms, while his other hand wandered around the figure.Letting the gentle body in his arms tremble, and listening carefully to the soft whistling sounds coming into his ears, Yuan Shu's drunken cheeks became even more intoxicated.

Ever since Zhang Liao led the army to attack Wancheng, Yuan Shu had been struggling with the panic in his heart. When Ji Ling really lost Wancheng, the panic in Yuan Shu's heart became more intense.At that time, the first thing Yuan Shu did was not to mobilize troops and horses to besiege Wancheng, but to quickly gather his family members to clean up the poor. Although Zhang Liao's army did not take any further actions after that, Yuan Shu still insisted on moving to Shouchun.However, in order to prevent Zhang Liao, Yuan Shu still mobilized soldiers and horses to fight against Zhang Liao, but then came the news that Lu Bu's army attacked Yanzhou, which made Yuan Shu finally let go of the stone in his heart. Now that Cao Cao was dealing with Lu Bu, Yuan Shu finally also You don't have to worry about when Lu Bu will call.

These days, generals or counselors from the main combat faction kept coming to see him. They just wanted to persuade Yuan Shu to attack Sizhou while Lv Bu and Cao Cao were fighting, and at least take back Wancheng, but Yuan Shu refused them all.Although Yuan Shu has the heart to claim the title of emperor, he is also a courageous person. Facing Lv Bu, Yuan Shu really has no confidence. Compared to letting Yuan Shu go to fight with Lv Bu, Yuan Shu prefers and is more used to being with countless graceful figures behind the veil That is what Yuan Shu is good at, and that is the battlefield in Yuan Shu's heart. As for those fighting with real swords and guns, it is not what Yuan Shu is really good at.So Yuan Shu didn't blame Ji Ling, who was defeated and lost troops, but let Ji Ling go back to battle. It must be that Ji Ling is the only general in Yuan Shu's hands.Whenever he thinks of Ji Ling, Yuan Shu will think of another person from time to time. That person is Sun Ce. He heard that Sun Ce has developed well in the south of the Yangtze River, and now he has a lot of power. Yuan Shu also tried to summon Sun Ce. It's just that these letters are often lost in the sea, and now Sun Ce, who has a bright future, will care about Yuan Shu's life and death.Therefore, Yuan Shu is more keen on fighting with himself after Qingsha, because only when can Yuan Shu truly relax, can he truly find the feeling of being an emperor, and can forget those troublesome things.

"My lord, an envoy from Cao Cao has arrived and said that he has something to see." Yuan Shu was enjoying his daydream, but was disturbed by a sudden voice outside the door. This voice Yuan Shu was very familiar with, it was Wei Zhongdao's voice.Hearing the voice of Wei Zhongdao, Yuan Shuben was about to erupt an evil fire because he was disturbed. At this time, he knew that Wei Zhongdao was going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and there must be something important when he came here, so Yuan Shuqiang himself Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, he straightened his body, waved his hands to repel the graceful figures around him, and slowly threw away the trembling, blushing, moaning delicate body in his arms.Then he got up slowly and walked towards the long gown beside the light gauze curtain. At this time, a maid had already picked up the long gown and prepared to put it on for Yuan Shu.

"What happened?" After putting on the gown, Yuan Shu lay down on a bed and asked Wei Zhongdao who had already walked in.

"Cao Cao sent an envoy over, and wants to cooperate with Yuan Gong to deal with Lu Bu." Wei Zhongdao adjusted his tone after smelling the smell in the room, and then said solemnly.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect him, Cao Aman, to ask for help?" Hearing what Wei Zhongdao said, Yuan Shu laughed out loud, as if he didn't see Wei Zhongdao's serious face, but only after a short time, Yuan Shu's His face became gloomy again, and he continued: "So, even Cao Aman can't stop Lu Bu, it seems that Lu Bu is even better than before."

"Although Lu Bu is powerful, he was able to win Yanzhou this time because Cao Cao was too careless, which led to Yanzhou and Yanzhou being taken by Lu Bu. Although Cao Cao failed to defeat Lu Bu after returning to the army, the strength of the two sides is only on par. At this time, Cao Cao sent people to look for Yuan Gong, I am afraid there is something strange about it.” In recent years, Yuan Shu and Cao’s neighbors, whether it is Yuan Shu or Wei Zhongdao, are still concerned about the strength of this neighbor. It is very clear that at this moment Yuan Shu sent an envoy, which made both Wei Zhongdao and Yuan Shu somewhat on guard.

"Let Cao Cao's envoy come in. I want to hear what Cao Cao has to say." At this time, Yuan Shu pursed his lips and said with a smile. Sending someone to beg him now is also a good thing for Yuan Shu to comfort himself.

"Next, Cheng Yu, I came to visit Yuan Gong at the order of my lord. How is Yuan Gong?" It turned out that the envoy who came to see Yuan Shu was none other than Cheng Yu.

"Cheng Yu? Hehehe, I didn't expect Cao Aman to be willing to send you here. It seems that my old friend is really at the end of his rope." Yuan Shu said with a smile when he heard that the person who came reported that his name was Cheng Yu.Cao Cao always thought it was right, and looked down on Yuan Shu, who was like a dead man, but Yuan Shu was not just an embroidered pillow. He naturally knew Cheng Yu's position in Cao's army, and now that Cheng Yu came to see Yuan Shu in person, it also showed Cao Cao's respect for Cheng Yu. Yu's trip is bound to win, but this also shows that the predicament Cao Cao is facing at this time does not allow failure.

"Hahaha, Mr. Yuan, you are wrong. Mr. Cao sent me here to show Mr. Cao's sincerity in cooperating with Mr. Yuan. It's just a pity, hey." When he said it was a pity, Cheng Yu suddenly stopped and shook his head. Shaking his head, he looked very disappointed.

"What's the pity?" Seeing Cheng Yu's behavior, Yuan Shu hurriedly asked.

"It's a pity that Duke Yuan is not as wise as Duke Cao imagined. He didn't see that Duke Cao ordered me to come here to give Duke Yuan a chance to achieve great things. Instead, he wanted to take this opportunity to play tricks on me as an envoy. What a pity, it seems that I came here by mistake. Then I will take my leave." Cheng Yu saluted Yuan Shu, then turned around and took a step, as if he was about to leave.

"Wait, since Mr. Cao has something to discuss with my lord, it's not too late to make it clear before leaving." Seeing Cheng Yu turned to leave, Wei Zhongdao interjected at this time.As for the purpose of Cheng Yu's visit, Wei Zhongdao has already guessed a lot. He naturally knows that the purpose of Cheng Yu's visit is to unite with Yuan Shu to deal with Lu Bu, and this is what Wei Zhongdao has been pursuing all along. Willing to let Cheng Yu leave easily.

"Hahaha, what I said just now is just a temporary joke on my part. It's not too late for you to leave after clarifying your words, sir." At this time, Yuan Shu also wanted to hear what Cheng Yu had to say. Unknowingly, Yuan Shu was already attracted by what Cheng Yu was going to say, and really wanted to know what Cheng Yu would say next.

"Haha, my lord, I know that General Yuan Shu is a man with great ambitions, so I want to help the general and make him better." Having said that, Cheng Yu took a peek at Yuan Shu's expression, and sure enough, he saw Yuan Shu. There was a look of greed on his face, so he continued: "It's just that Lu Bu is powerful now, so my lord is willing to give up the three places of Juancheng, Dong'e, and Fan County to the general. I just ask the general to borrow troops with my lord. Let my lord use this way to attack Wancheng, so as to attack Sizhou, cut Lv Bu into two ends, so that Lv Bu can't take care of the first place, then my lord is willing to give up Yanzhou to the general, and help the general achieve great things." Cheng Yu's words almost It was for Yuan Shu to plan a plan to dominate the Central Plains. Imagine that when Cao Cao attacked Sizhou, Yuan Shu only had to defend Juancheng and other three places, and entangled with Lu Bu. After Cao Cao conquered Sizhou and Lu Bu was defeated, Yuan Shu would It is possible to obtain Yanzhou and dominate the Central Plains.

"Mr. Cao is really willing to give up Yanzhou? I'm afraid he wants my lord to defend against Lu Bu for him." Although Cheng Yu's words were hype, there was obviously a trace of doubt in Yuan Shu's eyes, so Wei Zhongdao asked Cheng Yu, although Wei Zhongdao wanted to To facilitate this cooperation, it must also match Yuan Shu's mood.

"Hahaha, Mr. Yuan is a smart man. In the beginning, after Lu Bu occupied Sizhou, the first thing he wanted to do was to attack Mr. Yuan. However, at that time, my Mr. Cao was attacking Xuzhou, which left Yanzhou empty of troops. Taking advantage of this opportunity, if it wasn't for the delay due to the affairs of Yanzhou, I'm afraid it would be you, Yuan Shu, who is fighting Lu Bu now. Although Lu Bu is tyrannical, Duke Cao is not afraid of Lu Bu, but now that Lu Bu is powerful, even if Lu Bu is general After driving out of Yanzhou, Lv Bu's strength still exists, so the best way to completely defeat Lv Bu is to send troops to Sizhou and cut off Lv Bu's return, so as to prevent future troubles forever." Seeing Yuan Shu's doubts, Cheng Yu And said threateningly.Anyway, Cheng Yu knew that as long as Lu Bu was around, Yuan Shu would have trouble sleeping and eating.

"Hmph, what if Cao Cao captures Sizhou? Lü Bu's strength still exists. You must know that Lv Bu's foundation is in Yongliang and Liangzhou. As long as Yongliang and Liangzhou are still in Lu Bu's hands, we have nothing to do. Really defeat Lv Bu." Although Cheng Yu's plan is good, there is still a long way to go before he can eliminate Lv Bu. Sizhou and Yanzhou must be the territory that Lv Bu acquired in the last year, but Lv Bu's foundation is in Yong Liangzhou, only by winning the Yongliang Prefecture can truly defeat Lu Bu, but until now, Yuan Shu seems to have no hope of winning the Yongliang Prefecture.

"On this point, my Duke Cao already has a plan. To be honest, Mr. Yuan, my lord has already contacted Ma Teng in Bingzhou. As long as Ma Teng takes advantage of the opportunity between us and Lu Bu to send troops to Yongzhou, Lu Bu will definitely not be able to take care of both ends. Lv Bu in Yongzhou will be lost. Then we can no longer use the name of the imperial court to order the princes, and at that time, there will only be a piece of imperial edict to demote Lv Bu as a rebel, and Lv Bu will inevitably face the situation of rebellion." After finishing speaking, Cheng Yu glanced at Yuan Shu and Wei Zhongdao's eyes, and instantly Cheng Yu The expressions of joy were seen on the faces of the two of them, which turned into joy. .
