Lu Dynasty

Chapter 331 Yuan Shu's Death
When Liu Bei heard that Man Chong said that Yuan Shu was going to join forces with Yuan Shao, he immediately took it to heart.He stood up and said: "Mr. Cao, I have been under your command for a long time. I have won the position of General Zuo without making an inch of merit. I often worry about this matter. Now that the two Yuans want to join forces, they must Passing through Xuzhou, I request to take an army to intercept Yuan Shu, maybe I can capture him alive."

Cao thought for a while and felt that what Liu Bei said was very reasonable. He smiled and said, "Let's do it! Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao, you two follow Xuande and let the governor Xuande's [-] troops go to stop Yuan Shu!" It's not that Liu Bei's luck is so strong. If Cheng Yu and Xun Yu were there, Cao would not let Liu Bei go to Xuzhou no matter what.But Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, one went to sort out the money and food, and the other went to supervise the prison, neither went to court.

After Cheng Yu and Xun Yu finished their work, they heard that Cao had sent Liu Bei to intercept Yuan Shu. , I once asked the prime minister to kill him. If the prime minister doesn't listen to me, it's fine, but how can you let him go today? The ancients said: One day's defeat of the enemy will be a disaster for all generations. Liu Bei's departure is like a dragon entering the sea, and a tiger returning to the mountain , I hope the prime minister will investigate!" Cao regretted what Xun Yu said, and hurriedly sent someone to chase after him, but it was too late, since Liu Bei had already set off, how could he come back?
Liu Bei got the order from Cao and Liu Xie, and immediately ordered people to pack up and set off overnight.In the early morning of the next day, he was already at Shiliting outside Xuchang.Liu Bei looked at the rising sun and stepped on the green grass on the ground. He was really proud of the spring breeze, and he finally left the prison of Xuchang.Liu Bei led his army through the ten-mile long pavilion, and suddenly saw his uncle Dong Cheng waiting in the pavilion.

Liu Bei asked Sha Moke and Wei Yan to lead the troops first, and went to talk to Dong Cheng by himself.Liu Bei said to Dong Cheng: "Uncle Guo, don't worry, my visit will definitely open up a new world for Your Majesty!"

Seeing Liu Bei's sincere smile, Dong Cheng said, "Uncle Emperor, it's going to be difficult, and I hope you are careful! As long as you don't forget Your Majesty! Go quickly, if Cao reacts, you won't be able to leave! "Liu Bei nodded, rode his horse and chased Wei Yan and the others.Dong Cheng looked at Liu Bei's back and murmured: "Uncle Emperor! Take care!"

Seeing that Liu Bei and Dong Cheng had chased after them without saying a few words, Wei Yan was very puzzled, so Wei Yan asked: "Brother, why do I feel that you are in a panic when you are going to fight Yuan Shu this time? You are still leaving in such a hurry! "

Liu Bei laughed and said: "Second brother doesn't know something. We are in Xuchang, like a bird in a cage and a fish in a net, but now it's like a fish entering the sea and a bird in the blue sky, and we are no longer bound by the cage and net. If now If you don’t hurry, we will go back when Cao sends troops to chase after us!” Wei Yan heard that this was indeed the case, and hurriedly urged Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao to march faster.

The current governor of Xuzhou is a man of Cao, named Che Zhou.Although Cao's attitude towards the aristocratic family is better than mine, but compared with Liu Bei and Tao Qian, it is very different, so the Chen family doesn't like Cao very much.When Chen Gui heard that Liu Bei was back, he quickly asked Chen Deng to contact him.At this time, Che Zhou also sent someone to invite Chen Deng.

Chen Deng had no choice but to go to the governor's mansion first. When Che Zhou saw him, he smiled and said, "Yuanlong is here! You are a great talent in Xuzhou. Now the prime minister wants me to do something, but I don't know how to do it." Okay, can you give me an idea?" It turned out that Cao sent people to chase Liu Bei back, but the people he sent failed to invite Liu Bei back, so Cao knew that Liu Bei had a different intention.Cao Xindao: Since you Liu Bei and I are not of the same mind, don't blame me for being cruel.So Cao wrote a letter to Che Zhou, the governor of Xuzhou, asking Che Zhou to wait for the opportunity to kill Liu Bei.It was for this that Che Zhou called Chen Denglai.When Chen Deng heard that Che Zhou wanted to kill Liu Bei, he was definitely not happy.So Chen Dengming gave Che Zhou an idea, and secretly sent someone to inform Liu Bei.

Liu Bei received news that Yuan Shu had already arrived in Xuzhou.He didn't go to Xuzhou City, but went directly to meet Yuan Shu.Liu Bei was meeting Yuan Shu's vanguard General Ji Ling in Lu County, and Sha Moke was so sexual that he rushed towards Ji Ling without even notifying his name.Ji Ling and Sha Moke fought in the dark, the sun and the moon were dark, it can be said that the opponents will meet the best talents.In fact, Ji Ling was worse than Shamoke. If Shamoke's cow was still there, Ji Ling would be out of luck.It's a pity that Shamoke's cow has been cooked by me and Lu Bu.

Seeing that Sha Moke and Ji Ling had fought for hundreds of rounds but failed to take down Ji Ling, Wei Yan felt anxious and rode his horse towards Ji Ling.Ji Ling was not Lu Bu or Guan Yu. He had already had a hard time fighting Shamoke, but now that Wei Yan was added, he could only run away.But this is not bad, Ji Ling in history was shot to death by Zhang Fei in Xuzhou.Now he just ran away, and he was earning money.

Now that Ji Ling was defeated, Liu Bei naturally had to meet Yuan Shu.Liu Bei pointed at Yuan Shu and scolded: "The fourth generation and third son of the Yuan family don't care about serving the country, why did you become such a rebel? If you still have self-knowledge, get off the horse and restrain yourself, I will become the Son of Heaven, and spare your life!" "

Yuan Shu even looks down on me, how could he look down on Liu Bei.Hearing Liu Bei scolding himself, he immediately said angrily, "You little boy who weaves mats and sells shoes, do you think that the emperor gave you the title of imperial uncle, and you are noble? You will always smell like stinky shoes!" After speaking, Yuan Shu waved his troops to kill Liu Beijun.

Liu Bei ordered Sha Moke to attack from the left wing, Wei Yan to attack from the right wing, and he himself led Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao to charge Yuan Shujun from the middle.Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling has been beaten by Shamoke and Wei Yan, who can stop Wei Yan and Shamoke?The corpses of Yuan Shujun killed by Liu Bei were scattered all over the field, and blood flowed like rivers.

Yuan Shu managed to get away from Liu Bei's pursuit, and there were only a thousand people around him, all of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled.Seeing the hunger and thirst of the troops under his command, he ordered to bury the pot and make food.But they are a defeated army, so they have no food to eat, only the wheat they carry with them.The rice was cooked, but Yuan Shu was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child. When had he ever eaten this kind of food, he asked his chef to make rice with honey water.The chef told him that now there are corpses all over the field, there is no honey water, but there is a lot of blood.

It is summer now, which is a period of high incidence of diseases. Yuan Shu was first ridiculed by Liu Bei, and then fled in panic.He suffered several blows in a row, and was bumped back by the cook again. Yuan Shu's narrow heart and depression immediately made him vomit blood, and died violently in an old hut that night.
