Chapter 326: The Sad Yuan Shu
Chapter 326 The Tragic Yuan Shu
When Huangfu Jian and his party returned to the Qiao family courtyard, the sun was already west. The old man Qiao Xuan came up early. Seeing that the two precious daughters were all safe and sound, a worried heart finally came down.
When the father and daughter met, they were sighing. Er Qiao briefly described what happened. After hearing this, Qiao Xuan burst into tears and sighed in his heart that his daughter was really lucky and died. At the last moment, Huangfu Jian arrived and saved them.
As the saying goes, if you survive a great disaster, you will have good fortune in the future!
Qiao Xuan was sure that his two daughters were blessed, and since then he climbed up Huangfu Jian’s high branch, and he was not rich or powerful. When Qiao Xuan thought of this, his eyes looked at Huangfu Jian differently, and he had already regarded him as his prospective son-in-law.
"Yuan Chang, please order people to cut wood and build coffins and bury your brothers!" More than 500 cavalrymen stopped one mile from Qiao's mansion, and Huangfu Jian said in a deep voice to Zhong Yao beside him.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, which is a festive day. Huangfu Jian didn't want the atmosphere of Qiao's mansion to be destroyed by so many corpses. For Huangfu Jian and the others, they have long been used to death, and no one has any blood on their hands. But those people in Qiao's mansion are just ordinary people. If they bring these corpses into Qiao's mansion, they must be scared.
Therefore, Huangfu Jian felt that it would be better to let these fallen soldiers go to peace as soon as possible!
"No!" Zhong Yao bowed and took his order.
Huangfu Jian returned to the Qiao family courtyard with Lu Bu, the little princess, the Qiao sisters, and the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry.
There are many mountains around Wan County, and a mountain is not far from the Qiao family courtyard. After receiving the order, Zhong Yao brought the bodies of more than 100 fallen soldiers to the foot of the mountain with five hundred personal guards, and used materials to collect local materials, cut wood and coffins overnight, and buried them.
In the chaotic times, wars are frequent, and when a soldier eats food, he may die at any time. After death, most of them dig a large pit, bury things, or even throw away the corpse in the wilderness. After the death of these more than 100 personal guards, they still have a coffin with them. After the death of these more than 100 personal guards, they have been buried with them. After busy for the middle of the night, more than 100 dead soldiers were buried. Zhong Yao brought five hundred personal guards back to Qiao Mansion.
After this trouble, although the three women were greatly frightened, it was a beautiful thing for Huangfu Jian, giving him a chance to save the beauty. Whether it was the little princess or the two daughters of the Qiao family, Huangfu Jian has now become the hero and the real hero in their minds. I don’t know how tall Huangfu Jian’s image in their hearts is.
Beauties love heroes, and so on in ancient and modern times! Huangfu Jian's purpose of this trip was natural. Now, the two beauties of the Qiao family looked at Huangfu Jian with tenderness and sweetness, so thick as water, they could not be transformed, and they were afraid they could not be driven away.
Not to mention how free and easy Huangfu Jian was in Qiao’s mansion and the spring scenery was boundless, but to say that Yuan Shu and Yuan Highway of Yuzhou were the governor.
191 is the fourth year when there is no master in the world. Since there is no master in the world, of course there will be chaos in the disputes between heroes.
After more than three years of quiet development, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu of Yanzhou, and other princes in Jizhou have made great progress. With a little soldiers in their hands, a little grain in the Curry, he felt better, and they all thought they were unambiguous and had the capital to compete for the world. Under the strong attack of the Zhenxi Army, they all showed their hideous and terrifying faces, looking for prey, fighting for battle. Stealing their soldiers, their population, taking their territory, and strengthening themselves.
Everyone understands that in this game of heroes, there is always only one winner.
If you want to not become a sacrifice for other people's kingly sects, and if you want to not be buried in the long river of history, you want to win the disputes between heroes. If you want to be the master of this world, you must have enough strength, a strong army, more territory, and the means to defeat everyone.
The same is true for the heroes to compete for the dominance of the big fish and the small fish to eat shrimp!
For Yuan Shu, the governor of Yuzhou, 191 was a lucky year.
In July, inspired by the world's general trend, Yuan Shu's troops left Yangzhou and fought against Yangzhou's governor Liu Yao. Unexpectedly, Yangzhou's governor Liu Yao was a silver spear and waxed head. He looked very large, but in fact he was vulnerable at all. Yuan Shu's army walked along the way, winning consecutive battles, and it didn't take long to go to the two counties of Jiujiang and Lujiang in Yangzhou.
Liu Yao's army retreated step by step, retreated across the river, and fled all the way to Jiangnan with the remaining soldiers and defeated generals. In this way, the two counties of Yangzhou and Jiangbei became Yuan Shu's territory. But Yuan Shu seemed to have reached the end. Yuan Shu fought away a group of sheep but welcomed a tiger. Not only did Yuan Shu take a fancy to this Fengshui treasure land in Jiangdong, but Huangfu Jian had long been staring at him.
At the end of November, Huangfu Jian ordered Huang Xu, the commander of the personal guard camp, Xu Shu, the military advisor of the army, Tai Shi Ci as the deputy general, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai as the partial general, led two thousand iron cavalry of the personal guard camp, and 20,000 Fengxiang troops to head north.
In December, the Zhenxi Army was as strong as a tide, and the road was as strong as a whole, breaking dozens of cities along the river in Jiujiang County. Then, the Zhenxi Army rushed forward without stopping and advanced northward, confronting the army led by Ji Ling, a general under Yuan Shu. If it weren't for Huangfu Jian's order to have a half-month quit during the Spring Festival, it would be hard to say whether Hefei City could still be in the hands of Yuan Shu.
On New Year's Eve, the people of Shouchun City are busy, and they are busy celebrating the New Year. Although a new master has been replaced in the city, it has little impact on them. The days have passed and the New Year have also passed. In the eyes of these ordinary people, there are not many good things for officials, but one wolf has left and another wolf has come, all the same.
In the luxurious city lord's mansion, Yuan Shu, the governor of Yuzhou, has not yet had a holiday. He is summoning his ministers to discuss military and national affairs in the official office. It is also difficult for Yuan Shu. It is hard for the New Year to work hard on the frontline war!
"You are all lonely ministers. Now the army in Zhenxi has arrived in Hefei. Tell me, what should I do?" Yuan Shu sat in the upper high position, his face was not good. He looked down at the ministers in the hall and asked in a deep voice.
Yuan Shu is in a very bad mood now. He just captured the two northern counties of Yangzhou and was attacked by the Zhenxi Army. Anyone who encountered such a thing would not be in a good mood. If he had known that Zhenxi Army had also made up his mind to Yangzhou, Yuan Shu would rather not take Yangzhou than fight with Zhenxi Army at this time!
But when the Zhenxi Army attacked Jingzhou with all its might, Yuan Shu would not have thought that the Zhenxi Army had not yet finished fighting Jingzhou, and had run to Jiangdong to make trouble? And just a few days ago, Yuan Shu also received news that the troops of Liu Yao who fled to Jiangnan were finished and were completely swallowed up by the Zhenxi Army.
Yuan Shu is in a dilemma now?
Jiujiang and Lujiang counties are like two hot mountain ditches, and they are not even thrown away, and they can’t eat them.
Just after two major counties were captured, Yuan Shu and his ministers were both excited and in a high spirit, and they were in a great way to become the second prince in the world. If they gave up the two counties like this, not to mention that Yuan Shu could not accept it, even the civil and military generals under his tent would not agree, which would be more likely to cause a downward movement in the army and a great loss in the people. However, if Yuan Shu wanted to fight with the Zhenxi Army, Yuan Shu was indeed very afraid, and he was afraid that he would become the second prince to be destroyed by the Zhenxi Army.
Others may not know how powerful Huangfu Jian is, but Yuan Shu knows it. When the heroes met, Yuan Shu realized how powerful Huangfu Jian was. Until now, Yuan Shu still had a deep sense of fear of Huangfu Jian.
Yuan Shu still knew that Huangfu Jian took Bingzhou quietly, cut off Dong Zhuo's way back, and died in defeat. Dong Zhuo was actually not killed by the princes in the world, but by Huangfu Jian's hands. Yuan Shu didn't want to be the second Dong Zhuo.
What a pity! Yuan Shu is now in a difficult situation and cannot fight, and he cannot fight, but he cannot help himself!
"The lord is worried! There is a saying that soldiers come to block the enemy, and water comes to flood the earth! The Zhenxi Army is now equivalent to fighting on three sides, with troops scattered. The army that attacked our army is just an unknown junior leader with no more than 30,000 soldiers. Hefei City is solid, with more soldiers and sufficient food, and our army's general Ji Ling guards it. The subordinates believe that General Ji Ling can definitely defend Hefei City."
Just as Yuan Shu was thinking about it, his chief secretary Yang Hong stood up and spoke.
"What Lord Changshi said is very true!" Everyone in the hall also echoed, for fear of missing such a good opportunity to show off.
In the eyes of Yuan Shu, although the Zhenxi Army was very powerful, it was not as powerful as going to war on three sides, and they just wanted to defend Hefei.
"Although you are right, Huangfu Jian is not a mortal! Huangfu Jian is known as a military god. If he doesn't move, he will be thunderous. Since Huangfu Jian dares to start a war from three sides, he must have his plans. Besides, we still don't know where Huangfu Jian is?" Yuan Shu sighed after hearing everyone's speech, shook his head, and said helplessly.
Yuan Shu had a much better understanding of Huangfu Jian than his advisers.
"Dong, dong, dong..." Just as everyone showed suspicious expressions, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the government office.
Everyone in the hall turned their heads and looked at each other, and saw a young man dressed in a personal guard appearing at the yamen. The young man's armor was a little messy, his face was a little tired, and he looked dusty.
"Who is here? How dare you disturb the orphan's political affairs!"
Yuan Shu was in a bad mood, but now when he saw a young man dared to break in, he was furious and shouted sternly.
"Report to the lord, the villain is the young master's personal guard. He is ordered by the young master and comes to report it if necessary!" The young man was so scared that he shivered when he heard Yuan Shu's angry words. He hurriedly fell to his knees and spoke out to argue.
"Tell me! What happened? What's the young master? Why haven't you seen him come back yet?"
Yuan Shu asked sternly.
"The young master went to Wan County under the escort of General Lei Bo." The young pawn replied in a hurry.
"What are the young master doing at this time?" Yuan Shu heard that his son was in Wan County and was guarded by General Lei Bo. Although it was a little strange, he didn't think too much about it.
"The young master ordered General Lei Bo to take people to the Qiao family in Wan County to propose marriage." The young master was obviously thinking about how to answer so that he would not arouse his lord's greater anger. His words were also spit out one by one, little by little.
"I have heard of Mr. Qiao's daughter, what's the result?" Yuan Shu showed a smile on his face. Are the beautiful ladies and gentlemen good? It would be a good thing for his son to marry Mr. Qiao's two beautiful daughters.
But Yuan Shu couldn't be happy next time.
"General Lei Bo is dead. He was killed by General Lu Bu, the general under General Zhenxi!" The young master thought for a long time and told the result. After that, he was waiting to be burned by Yuan Shu's anger.
"Bang!" Yuan Shu threw something on the ground for some reason, and then Yuan Shu's slightly white face turned red, a very beautiful color. Then Yuan Shu's mouth became wider and wider, but he opened for a long time but didn't say a word.
Huangfu Jian’s name is like a curse, and Yuan Shu will come whatever he is afraid of. It was originally a good thing for his son to go to Qiao’s family to propose marriage, but it would be a big deal when he met Huangfu Jian! Huangfu Jian not only used troops like a god, but also killed people without blinking an eye. In an instant, Yuan Shu felt empty in his heart, as if he had lost something.
"General Zhenxi? Lu Bu?" Yuan Shu seemed to be muttering, or asking the little pawn kneeling at his feet.
"What's going on? How is Yao'er?" It took me a long time before Yuan Shu calmed down.
"Young Master is fine. At that time, General Lei Bo brought the villain and waited for three hundred personal guards to the Qiao family to propose marriage, but unexpectedly he met General Zhenxi. General Lu Bu, the general under General Zhenxi, killed General Lei and drove Xiaode and others out. After seeing the young master, the young master ordered Xiaode to wait for ten people to come back to report the news and report the news that General Zhenxi was in Wan County. The young master and the others remained in Wan County." The young master immediately said in detail what happened.
"Why haven't the young master come back yet? What is he doing in Wan County?" After hearing that Yuan Yao was fine, Yuan Shu felt a little better and his voice became much gentler. He was just such an only son, but he was much more important than Lei Bo.
"When the villain left, the young master was with Wang Bao, a bandit in Wan County. The young master received news that the Zhenxi Army was going to provide disaster relief in Wan County. The two ladies of the Qiao family also participated in the disaster relief. They were discussing how to grab the two ladies of the Qiao family." The young master said with a nervous moment and stuttering.
"It's over! Yao'er's over! It's over!" After hearing this, Yuan Shu's face was ashamed, and he sighed, and fell on the soft couch behind him, his eyes rolled straight, and he almost stopped breathing.
Yuan Shu is just such an only son, which shows how much Yuan Yao has in his heart. An old saying goes: There are three kinds of unfilial things, and there is no descendant. If Yuan Yao really makes any mistakes, Yuan Shu's lineage will be defeated, and he will compete for the world.
"Lord..." Seeing Yuan Shu so devastated, the ministers exclaimed.
"Qiao Rui, please quickly lead the next three thousand to Wan County and take the young master back. Remember not to have conflicts with the western army in Zhen. As long as you can take the young master back, it will be a great achievement." Yuan Shu took a little breath and ordered loudly.
"No!" Qiao Rui took his order respectfully.
"Hey, this evil son is really ignorant! He wanted to steal people from Huangfu Jian with just a few hundred people. It was still too late to do so!" Yuan Shu thought a lot for a moment, but now he thought too much, it would be useless. He could only beg God for blessing, so that Yuan Yao would not do stupid things.
At this time, Yuan Shu had no worries about anything else and retreated all the ministers.
Ten days later, on the ninth day of the first lunar month in 192, Qiao Rui returned.
