Zhou Yu quickly walked to the lobby and saluted Yan Xiang and Yang Hong who were sitting in the middle. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Yu spoke sarcastically.

"Why are you only seeing General Zhou and General Sun? Could it be that he hasn't woken up yet?"

Zhou Yu turned around and bowed to Chen Yu, neither humble nor arrogant. "I dare to tell Chen Jun that in order to help the next general, General Sun had already led Yi to set off."

Chen Yu suddenly blushed and said a few words in a vague way. Yan Xiang and Yang Hong looked at each other, and Yang Hong nodded. Yan Xiang raised his voice and said, "Everyone, the situation has been told to you, General Sun has also set off. Considering that Cao Cao has about 4,000 people, and he is not Sun's opponent, we need to send another 10,000 people to help. Which general is willing to volunteer?"

The hall was silent, silent. Chen Yu lowered his head, twisted his beard, and looked like he was wandering around the sky. Others were not much better. Some pretended to be deaf and dumb, while others scratched their ears and heads, but they just didn't mention the matter of saving Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu has many dangers in this trip. Yuan Yao is in Cao Cao's hands, and once there are any shortcomings, Yuan Shu will be defeated. He can marry and have another child, but whether he can give birth to a son or whether he can grow up or not is hard to say. Compared with him, Yuan Shao has three sons, two of whom are already adults, and his popularity and reputation are definitely not comparable to Yuan Shu. If Yuan Shu did not fall in love with Yuan Shao and would be at ease to assist Yuan Shao, then that would be fine. They support Yuan Shu, which means indirectly supporting Yuan Shao. But Yuan Shu is not jealous and insists on fighting against Yuan Shao, which is a bit unreliable.

Can Yuan Shu be Yuan Shao's opponent? No matter how you look at it, it will be a situation of defeat. Yuan Shu was self-defeated, but they were unwilling to follow him to be buried. Now Yuan Shu overestimated his abilities and pursued Cao Cao with only three or four hundred cavalrymen, which was the best result. Yuan Shu himself committed suicide, and they just happened to surrender Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao was Yuan Shao's subordinate, and chasing Cao Cao was against Yuan Shao. Besides, Cao Cao was good at fighting, and they had already experienced it. For a uncertain hope, it was not cost-effective to catch up and fight Cao Cao to death.

Seeing that the generals pretended to be deaf and dumb, Yan Xiang's face was gloomy, Yang Hong was even more furious. "Most of you come from famous families, have inherited family traditions, loyalty, filial piety, integrity and righteousness are always on your lips. General Yuan is not fond of you, but why do you think of yourself when you are at this moment of life and death? Chen Gongwei, why don't you speak? You are the most respected general of the latter general."

Chen Yu didn't move and said carelessly: "Civilization, you have been locked in the city and don't know much about what happened in the next general's camp."

Yang Hong said sternly: "Are you saying I don't understand the truth?"

"I dare not." Chen Yu smiled slightly. "But there are some situations that you really don't know. Now the generals value the most is not us, but young talents like Zhou Lang and Sun Lang. Now, the elite troops they lead are now subordinate to the central army. No matter what happens, they are the main force, and we don't need to do our best."

Yang Hong turned his head and looked at Yan Xiang. Yan Xiang sighed lightly, and wanted to speak but stopped.

Chen Yu continued, "Besides, I don't want to chase you, but my subordinates didn't sleep all night the day before yesterday and attacked the city one day. The physical energy was too exhausted, and it would be useless even if they chased you. So, it would be better to arrange other elite troops for the latter generals. Rescue is like putting out a fire, so you should make a decision quickly. If it is delayed, it is not as simple as losing Wancheng."

Yang Hong's face suddenly turned red. When Yuan Shu supported Sun Jian, he was responsible for defending Wancheng. When Wancheng fell, he was the main person responsible. Chen Yu repeatedly reminded him in front of so many people that he would not leave any face for him. One of them was the Yang family of Hongnong and the other was the Chen family of Xia Pi. Chen Yu was usually polite when he saw him, but today he treated him like this. He was not mentally prepared and was about to go wild on the spot.

In the back room, Yuan Quan hugged Yuan Heng and sighed softly. "What kind of people have my father recruited?"

Yuan Heng raised his head, his big eyes shining in the dark. "Sister, Zhou Lang, what kind of person is Sun Lang? Then Sun Lang went to save Aweng, is it true?"

Yuan Quan shook his head. "I don't know either. I really can't think of which family this surname is Zhou. General Sun Wentai has several sons, but the oldest is only sixteen or seventeen years old, so it shouldn't be him. However, if he can be appreciated by Aweng in such a short time, he must be someone with similar temperaments. Isn't this eager and righteous personality exactly the same as Aweng?"

"What should we do? Just sit here and wait for news?"

"What else can we do except wait for news?" Yuan Quan's tears slid down his face. "Occasionally, there are guests and glasses, everyone is unparalleled and brave, and now there is no one to use. Your brother-in-law is a useless scholar and cannot count on it. Aheng, troubled times have come. If you want to get married in the future, you must marry someone who can protect you. You can no longer be like your sister. Seeing Ah Weng in danger, but you can't do anything."

Yuan Heng nodded, hugged Yuan Quan's waist, and sobbed softly.

In the front hall, Zhou Yu stood up and bowed. "Chief Yan, Chief Secretary Yang, military situation is urgent, you can discuss it slowly, I will not wait here. Sun Bofu only took Yi Cong Guards away, and his three lieutenants were still on standby in the camp. I led the headquarters and General Sun's subordinates to chase after him and respond to General Yuan."

Yan Xiang nodded. "It's a laborious Gongjin."

Zhou Yu turned around and was about to leave, but Zhang Xun stood up. "Gongjin, I will go with you when I see the virtuous."

Yang Hong stood up long and bowed to his body to show his respect. "I have worked hard for you. Hong knows that there is a difference today."

——

Cao Cao tied his mount and looked back.

On the official road in the distance, a ray of smoke and dust rose into the sky, and cavalry were approaching quickly. Without Cao Cao's instructions, Cao Ren turned over and dismounted, lay on the ground, listened with his ears on the ground for a moment, then turned over and turned his horse and turned his head.

"General, there are only more than a hundred cavalry. You go first, I will destroy them."

Cao Cao didn't move. "Zixiao, who do you think it would be?"

"No matter who he is."

Cao Cao shook his head. "Zixiao, have you forgotten how Zihe and Zixiu were injured? If it was Yuan Gaolu, there was no problem. You would definitely defeat him. If it was Sun Bofu, you could not take it lightly. Not only were there warriors like Dian Wei, but there were also archers like Huang Zhong. He himself was brave and good at fighting. His insight was not far away, so we could not repeat the same mistakes."

When Cao Ren thought of the fierce battle outside the He family manor, he was also a little uneasy. Before joining the army, he had led more than a thousand young men across the Yangtze River and Huai River. He had seen people on the market, but he had never seen a warrior like Sun Ce and Dian Wei. He defeated dozens of cavalry with just a few people, seriously injuring Cao Chun and Cao Ang.

Xi Zhicai coughed lightly: "General, this place is too close to Wancheng. If the light troops move quickly, they will arrive in one hour. The disparity between the masses and the few will be unfavorable to our army. Will we walk forward even further?"

Cao Cao laughed. "How could I not know what Zhicai said? But there are only a hundred cavalry chasing soldiers, and they can be destroyed by chatting and laughing. Even if reinforcements come, I have already won and left. What can he do to me?" Cao Cao waved his hand, gave an order, turned his horse's head, kicked his horse's belly lightly, and ran towards the gentle slope on one side.
