Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 148 Yuan Shu's supernatural operation, Lu Bu picked it up for nothing! 【Please subscribe and ask for a monthly ticket】

The spring breeze is blowing, slightly chilly.

Liu Chong stands on the slope.

With a rather complicated expression, he stared at Cao Ang who was in front of him, inspecting the progress of the project.

Ashamed, grateful, full of respect, these emotions mixed together, filled Liu Chong's heart.

When the city was broken yesterday, Liu Chong's army and Cao Ang's Huben camp joined forces and attacked from the north.

What Cao Ang saw, he also saw.

However, he didn't think of what others thought of.

Apart from sighing with emotion, and then hastily leading the army into the city, Liu Chong never thought of repairing the tombs and filling up the pits.

As King Chen of the Han Dynasty and a close relative of the Han family, Liu Chong felt very ashamed.

Although the relationship between the prince buried here and him can only be calculated in terms of law, the blood relationship between each other has long been unknown how many generations have passed.

But that's no excuse for his complete negligence.

On the other hand, Cao Ang.

This morning, he dragged himself to the north of the city for such a thing.

Busy before and after, all kinds of command.

At this moment, I went around the tomb to check around there again, for fear that something might go wrong, and when I felt something was wrong, I even had to do it myself and fiddle with it.

Liu Chong felt that he was more like a clan member of the Han family than himself.

See the truth in the subtleties.

Among the members of the alliance against Dong Zhuo this time, I am afraid that Cao Ang is as concerned about the face of the Tian family and the majesty of the royal family. I dare not say that this is the only case, but it is rare.

Cao Ang cares about Tian's family's face.

Don't you just care about your own face?
Therefore, Liu Chong is very grateful to him.

……

"Your Highness, prepare for the sacrifice."

"You are a clan member, so you will be the officiant this time!"

The tomb has been filled, and except for the valuables buried with him that cannot be recovered, everything else has been restored as before.

At this moment, there is only the last process left, which is to perform sacrifices and let the dead rest in peace.

So Cao Ang came to invite Liu Chong.

However, after Liu Chong stared at Cao Ang for a while, he suddenly shook his head.

"Zixiu has great righteousness in his heart, and he did such a good deed. Although I am a family member, I am quite disqualified. You must be the officiant!"

In a sacrificial ceremony, who will be the officiant is nothing more than considering identity and status.

Liu Chong's words.

It is tantamount to putting Cao Ang in front of him.

This was absolutely impossible before.

You know, even though Liu Chong followed Cao Ang to participate in the alliance against Dong and merged his army into the Huben camp, there is still a difference in the status of the two.

Liu Chong just didn't want to get involved too deeply, so he didn't care about big things, and ignored small things, and all votes followed Cao Ang's will.

But he is a prince after all.

Moreover, he is still a powerful vassal with soldiers and land.

The reason why he came here with Cao Ang was just because he lost a bet. At best, he admired Cao Ang a lot, and nothing more.

But after today.

But it means that Liu Chong has substantive recognition of Cao Ang and is full of respect for his many actions.

If the battle against Dong is over in the future.

It is not impossible for Cao Ang to invite Liu Chong to join his camp completely.

Liu Chong's tone was decisive.

Cao Ang was stunned for a moment, but he also understood what was going on, and immediately stopped refusing.

After slightly cupping his hands towards Liu Chong.

Turn around and tell people to start preparing.

And while the two were talking.

Xu Jing, who had been doing paperwork with Cao Ang for the past few days, was standing aside, holding a bamboo slip in one hand and a writing brush in the other.

Sometimes he writes and draws, sometimes he stares at Cao Ang for a long time, and then he immerses himself in writing.

I don't know what to think about.

…………

Perhaps it was because Gong County didn't hold on for too long, which caused Dong Zhuo to be completely unable to sit still.

Again allocated some soldiers and horses.

Strictly order Yanshi County to guard against death.

In any case, the coalition forces must be held back.

Therefore, in desperation, the defenders of Yanshi County could only take the initiative to attack. Several troops successively blocked and harassed outside the city, and even ambushed along the way.

It's a pity that the effect is minimal.

Sun Jian led the vanguard, and the more they fought, the more brave they fought, and the more fierce they fought, there were only a few thousand soldiers, but they fought with the momentum of tens of thousands.

He successively encountered the defenders of Yanshi County in several places and fought many battles.

Victory was achieved without exception.

After learning the experience of Chenggaoguan's defeat, Sun Jian became more cautious, not daring to underestimate the enemy, for fear of making the same mistake again.

No matter what kind of traps the enemy lays out.

Sun Jian just led the vanguard to advance slowly, step by step, and removed obstacles on the road bit by bit.

According to his posture.

Within a few days, the vanguard army could arrive at Yanshi County first, and the main force of the Chinese army could also arrive later.

It's just that he has such a fast momentum.

But it made some people dissatisfied.

At the moment, the South Route Army is in the camp.

The rear general Yuan Shu was holding a battle report sent from the front line, frowning and feeling unhappy.

……

"Shh!"

Read the battle report carefully.

Then, from the case on the table, I found several copies that I had received before, all of which were sent back to the Chinese army camp by someone sent by Sun Jian.

Every one is a good news!
It can be seen how much credit Sun Jian has received recently.

The more he looked, the deeper Yuan Shu's frown became.

After such a long time.

He just threw these battle reports on the case.

He said with a bit of eccentricity: "He really deserves to be a veteran who has been in the field for a long time. This time he galloped freely, but even Lu Bu was beaten by him and fled."

"It's just that I didn't know why I went there. When I needed him to raise my face, he was defeated by Hua Xiong. Now I don't need him, but the news is coming again and again."

"It really is a rebellious bone in the back of the head!"

Yuan Shu had deep resentment towards Sun Jian.

He still can't forget that Sun Jian's defeat to Hua Xiong made him lose face.

This is a stain that is difficult to wash away no matter how many good news are sent back.

of course.

Yuan Shu was just acting weird.

I don't have any other ideas right now.

Therefore, after complaining for a few words, Yuan Shu turned his head and said to a middle-aged scribe standing aside.

"In addition to sending such a good news this morning, Sun Wentai also said that there is a shortage of food and grass in the Dao army. You should rush for me first, and deliver the food and grass to him as soon as possible, so that he will not have any worries."

Yuan Shu intended to meet Sun Jian's request.

However, this middle-aged scribe did not immediately follow Yuan Shu's instructions. Instead, he hesitated for a long time and spoke several times, as if he didn't know what to say.

It looks like this.

Can't help but arouse Yuan Shu's curiosity.

"Hong Wen, what do you want to say? Or is there something wrong with my arrangement just now?"

Hearing Yuan Shu's question.

After all, this person no longer hesitated.

He came to Yuan Shu in three or two steps, bowed to him, then lowered his voice and spoke carefully.

……

"General, in my opinion, the batch of grain and grass that Sun Wentai asked for should be delayed from being delivered to him. No matter what, it will have to be delayed."

"Oh?"

Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows immediately.

He didn't expect his advisers to give such a suggestion.

I looked up and down a few times, and recalled it carefully.

It was confirmed that there was no conflict and entanglement between this person and Sun Jian, and the two were not even close at all.

Yuan Shucai continued to ask: "Sun Wentai is currently on the front line, fighting bloody battles with the enemy, opening the road to Yanshi County for us and the main force of the Chinese army, and clearing away all obstacles on the way."

"Its heavy responsibility is on its shoulders. At such a critical moment, how can it delay the delivery of its food and grass?"

The scribe raised his head to look at Yuan Shu.

Then he lowered his head again.

He said in a faint voice: "General Sun does have a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, but what he shoulders is the heavy responsibility of defeating Dong Zhuo's coalition forces, not the heavy responsibility of a general."

Yuan Shu didn't care about it at first.

Hearing this at first.

The whole person was shocked.

He seemed to be vaguely grasping some key point in his mind, which made him move forward involuntarily.

"Speak clearly!"

The person called Hong Wen gave Yuan Shu his hands slightly and revealed his thoughts.

"General Sun has won consecutive battles on the front line. Even though he was defeated by Hua Xiong before, it is difficult to hide his outstanding achievements."

"After killing Dong Bandit, the whole coalition army will definitely give rewards based on meritorious deeds, and General Sun, as a person who has made great achievements, will definitely be rewarded heavily. possible."

"In this way, general, can you still order Sun Wentai to do anything like you are doing now?"

"At that time, he will be out of your control!"

……

With the continuous advancement of the words of the scribes.

The expression on Yuan Shu's face became more and more ugly.

Originally, he didn't think of this.

But at this moment, after being reminded by others, Yuan Shu had to admit that what this person said was the truth.

Is there anyone in the world who is willing to be inferior to others?
What's more, someone as capable as Sun Jian would not be content with the status quo and be inferior to others.

Now this guy needs his own support, no matter whether it is soldiers, horses, food, or fame, he cannot do without his control.

So be honest.

But if he relied on the merits and reputation he accumulated during the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and he leaped to the top, then how old was Yuan Shu at that time?

And thinking of when Sun Jian was defeated by Hua Xiong earlier.

Not only did he not speak good words for him and excuse him from the guilt, but instead he kicked him.

Yuan Shu was extremely convinced.

As long as there is a chance, Sun Jian will definitely run away!
But Yuan Shu couldn't bear Sun Jian's escape.

Although he was born in a well-known family of four generations and three lords, relying on the reputation of the Yuan family in Runan, he also recruited many talents.

But such a brave fighter as Sun Jian is really unique.

Even though Yuan Shu is arrogant by nature and looks down on people with lower status than him, he also knows that talents are precious.

If Sun Jian is in hand.

Your own strength is strong!
On the contrary, his strength will be greatly weakened.

After thinking about it.

Yuan Shu couldn't sit still.

He immediately stood up, walked quickly around the desk, and grabbed the scribe's arm with one hand.

Then he said rather eagerly: "Then according to your plan, we will suspend the distribution of grain and grass, and only do not receive the grain request document from Sun Wentai."

"Leave him alone, suppress his momentum, and let Sun Wentai know who is the foundation for him to be able to gallop across the front line."

……

The weather is changeable in spring.

There is light rain from time to time.

On a plain not far from Yanshi County.

Sun Jian, wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, patrolled the barracks against the slanting wind and drizzle.

With gusts of cold wind blowing.

Even with Sun Jian's physique, he felt a little cold and couldn't help shivering.

After wrapping his clothes tighter, Sun Jian couldn't help frowning.

"Gongfu, is there still no movement from General Yuan's side? Why hasn't the food and grass in the rear been delivered?"

Huang Gai on the side shook his head.

The voice also said with some doubts: "Reporting to the general, the last general has sent people back many times to urge food, and has already stated that the frontline military situation is urgent."

"It's just that there has been no reply for many days, and there is no half grain delivered."

Sun Jian frowned even tighter.

He couldn't help but punched heavily on the tree trunk next to him, and he was even more annoyed.

"It's a rainy day and a cold spring. Now that there is no more food and grass, the soldiers are cold and hungry. How can they have the strength to fight the enemy!"

"After a few more days like this, let alone break through the defense line of Yanshi County, I am afraid that the places that have been taken before will have to be obediently spit out by then."

Seeing his general angry.

Everyone dared not speak.

Only his general Cheng Pu, after thinking for a while, said to Sun Jian.

"General, from the point of view of my subordinates, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the food if I keep waiting."

"This place is only a short distance away from the camp at the rear. There is plenty of food and grass in the camp at the rear. The enemy defenders have been beaten and retreated steadily. It is impossible to have extra troops to intercept the food and grass."

"So the past few days have passed, and the food and grass have been delivered no matter what."

"However, there are no particles now. I'm afraid that something happened in the camp at the rear."

Hear this.

Sun Jian's eyes flickered.

He can fight, but he can also think.

Hearing what the subordinate said, he immediately reacted, and couldn't help but walk around a few times with his hands behind his back.

After half an hour.

He suddenly turned around and told the generals under his command: "I'm leaving now to return to the camp of the Chinese army, and I must find out the situation."

"You guys now order the soldiers to pack up their bags and immediately retreat more than [-] miles. During the days when I am not in the army, I will try not to engage in direct confrontation with the enemy, and save some leftover food and grass!"

Wait until everyone promises.

Sun Jian did not dare to waste time.

Immediately ordered someone to bring a fast horse, and after turning over, he returned and left in the heavy rain.

……

At this moment, it is not far from Sun Jian's camp.

Lu Bu, who was in charge of leading the troops to confront Sun Jian, was also complaining.

"I don't know what my adoptive father thought. He ordered me to lead troops to guard Yanshi County, but he wanted to send Hu Zhen over here, and even ordered me to be restrained by him."

"A man lives between the heavens and the earth, how can he be controlled by others everywhere, what is the ability of that Hu man, but he is relying on the headquarters of the Xiliang Army, so he stepped on my head."

"Today is fine. In such a ghostly weather, he sits in the city and enjoys the happiness, but I brave the heavy rain and fight with the enemy army."

"It doesn't make sense!"

From this soliloquy.

It can be seen that Lu Bu's resentment towards Dong Zhuo and Hu Zhen.

Just when he was complaining.

Suddenly, the shouts of soldiers came from outside the tent.

"General Qi, the enemy has retreated!"

Lu Bu was taken aback for a moment.

Then, without thinking about putting on the bamboo hat and coir raincoat, he just opened the curtain and rushed out quickly.

Get on the horse and come to a high place.

Looking far away, looking at the place where Sun Jian's camp was stationed before, I saw the tents that were originally neatly arranged, but now there are only some sundries that were discarded when the army withdrew.

Other than that, there is no human habitation.

See this situation.

Lv Bu didn't know that Sun Jian's troops, the vanguard of the coalition forces that had been entangled with him for many days, had indeed withdrawn for the time being.

Lu Bu was overjoyed immediately.

He was really tortured by Sun Jian these days, his scalp was almost numb.

In terms of personal bravery, he thinks that he is invincible in the world, and no one dares to fight him one-on-one.

But when it comes to marching and fighting, the role played by personal force is actually not very great.

He really couldn't beat Sun Jian in a war.

Even though Lu Bu had slightly more troops under his command, it was still a pity that they were beaten.

If it wasn't for the task entrusted to him by his superiors, which was to try his best to delay and obstruct, Lu Bu would have given up the line of defense long ago and ran away.

Seeing to fight again.

In two or three days, he will abandon all the defense lines outside the city and return to Yanshi County.

But at this time.

Sun Jian retreated!
How not to make Lu Bu overjoyed?

……

After returning to camp.

Lu Bu immediately ordered the generals.

"Send a few teams of cavalry to search for me along the way. Be sure to find out the enemy's marching route and determine their current position to prevent them from cheating."

"Send a victory report to Luoyang as soon as possible, telling Xiangguo that we have defeated Sun Jian's vanguard army here, and the enemy army has been defeated and fled."

"The enemy's commander, Sun Jian, was almost beheaded by me. The coalition forces threw away their helmets, armor, and countless supplies before they escaped our pursuit."

"Through the unremitting efforts of the whole army, we have recovered a large area of ​​lost ground. We will lead our troops to counterattack in a short time. Please reward our soldiers!"

Lu Bu eloquently gave instructions.

A good report is written.

I don't know if it's because I have practiced under Dong Zhuo for a long time, and learned the essence of being an official and a general in Luoyang City, the capital of goodness.

Lu Bu's good news is really profound.

I don't know how Dong Zhuo will react.
