Three Kingdoms: The blind box draws Da Qiao at the beginning

Chapter 249 Liu Bei: Cao Cao is in decline, we can destroy him first

Besides, Yuan Shao returned to the garden behind the hall angrily.

His favorite Mrs. Liu hurriedly retreated, fearing that they would be an eyesore again.

Arriving at Yuan Shao's side, Mrs. Liu gently stroked Yuan Shao's back and said cautiously: "Husband, why are you angry?"

"You were arguing in the hall just now, and I heard it."

"This Tian Feng is indeed becoming more and more unscrupulous."

"His behavior is nothing more than relying on him to help you, husband, to pacify Gongsun Zan."

"Then we have to prove it to him."

"Without him Tian Feng, we can still win, and win big!"

"I'm going to piss him off!"

"I want to tell everyone that it is not because of Tian Feng that my husband has reached this point!"

"It's all your own fault!"

When Yuan Shao said this, the anger in his heart quickly subsided.

Sighing, Yuan Shao said: "These people really don't take me seriously anymore."

"Now you dare to point your nose at me and curse."

"Especially this Tian Feng, since Gongsun Zan died, he has really gone sideways."

Mrs. Liu smiled sweetly and said, "It's also your fault, husband. You don't establish your prestige on weekdays. You talk about being courteous to virtuous people. People always try to make an extravagant effort. They don't care about you being good, they only think that you are easy to bully. I’m going to bully you even more.”

"That's why people say that a good person will be bullied by others, and a good horse will be ridden by others."

Yuan Shao held Mrs. Liu's little hand, shook his head, and sighed: "Madam, you understand me!"

"In my current situation, I don't even have anyone close to me."

"At this juncture, even that idiot Tan'er is trying to trick me."

"With an army of [-], [-] cavalry, and [-] horses, with the help of generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou, he can still defeat me and lose Qingzhou!"

"If he comes back, I will kick him to death!"

Mrs. Liu said softly: "That's why I keep telling my husband that Shang'er is the most like him!"

"Not only does he look like my husband, but his talent is the same."

"It's just that he is still young and the civil and military officials do not approve of him commanding the army."

"If all the civil and military officials agree with him to unite the army, he will definitely defeat Jiangdong."

Yuan Shao nodded.

The eldest son disappointed him so much.

Such a good situation was actually ruined by him.

Before the expedition, he originally wanted Yan Liang to take Xun Chen there, but he insisted on boasting that he could do it in Haikou.

For the sake of safety, he also equipped him with Zhou Yu.

Although Zhou Yu is young, he is a very talented man.

Unexpectedly, he was still disappointing.

Then he thought about his youngest son Yuan Shang, who had followed him well all these years and often had strange ideas.

Or as Tian Feng said, the eldest son is just a idiot!

When I believed in the eldest son, it was indeed because he defeated Kong Rong and captured Qingzhou.

Now it seems that this is really not a feat.

Kong Rong, that rotten scholar, really had no ability.

Even Zuo Chengzu, the only foresighted aide, killed his entire family on someone's suggestion.

Yuan Shao looked annoyed.

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been fooled by the eldest son's words.

Yuan Shao looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Now, I really don't know what to do."

"Tian Feng's rebellion actually made me ally with Jiangdong and Cao Cao at this juncture."

"I just experienced a big defeat."

"If this is an alliance, doesn't it mean that I'm afraid of them?"

"The new master of Jiangdong, Lu Yi, is just a young junior. If I am afraid, where will I put my face?"

Mrs. Liu echoed: "That's right! We can't unite. Once we unite, everyone in the world will laugh at you, husband!"

Yuan Shaowei asked: "But now no one supports me, what should I do?"

Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes and said: "Uncle Liu Huang, doesn't he support your husband! And, as you said, he is quite capable of fighting!"

Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Come here, please invite Liu Xuande here!"

Liu Bei is being rejected by Jushou!
Just now, when everyone was leaving the general's residence, he tried to talk to Jushou to discuss ways to rescue Tian Feng.

Who knows, Jushou ignored him at all.Seeing Ju Shou leaving alone, Liu Bei also felt angry.

He is so wise, but they would rather choose a fool like Yuan Shao!

At this moment, someone ran out of the general's residence and said, "Mr. Xuande, my lord wants you to go to the back garden."

Liu Bei hummed and turned back.

In the courtyard behind the hall, in the stone pavilion, Yuan Shao had prepared tea and cakes.

Instructing Liu Bei to sit across from him, Yuan Shao said: "Mr. Xuande, today's situation makes you laugh."

Liu Bei said: "You don't need to worry about it, Mr. Yuan. In fact, the reason why everyone is so irritable is because the situation is critical. But, overall, everyone is doing it for the good of Jizhou."

Yuan Shao nodded and said: "Mr. Xuande, do you also support an alliance with Jiangdong and Cao Cao, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight?"

Liu Bei glanced at Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao obviously does not support it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have lost such a temper just now and even locked up Tian Feng.

Liu Bei was silent for a moment and said: "I don't support it very much."

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up and he said, "How do you say that?"

Liu Bei said: "The eldest son just led the army to defeat and lost so many troops. Now that we are rushing to send people to negotiate an alliance with Jiangdong, everyone in the world may laugh at us."

Yuan Shao echoed: "That's right! How can a loser take the initiative to negotiate peace? Once the loser negotiates peace, it means admitting that he is inferior to others."

"I, Yuan Shao IV and Third Duke, led the army to unify Hebei, but now I am not as good as Lu Yi'er from Jiangdong?"

Liu Bei said: "I have seen that Lu Yi."

Yuan Shao was quite surprised and said: "You have actually seen him!"

Liu Bei forced out a smile and said: "When Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou for the second time to avenge his father, and I led the army to assist Xuzhou, Lu Yi was just a small commander in Lujiang. He came to support Xuzhou on the orders of Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang."

"Although this Lu Yi is young, his experience is indeed somewhat different."

"But, that's all."

"He has no idea how to lead an army to fight."

"Compared to Mr. Yuan, you are so wise and powerful, you are not even a bit inferior."

"This is why I came all the way to seek refuge with Mr. Yuan instead of Jiangdong."

"Mr. Yuan is the future."

Yuan Shao laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Xuande has a good eye!"

Yuan Shao offered Liu Bei a glass of wine and said, "Then Mr. Xuande thinks that since we can't unite now, what should we do?"

Liu Bei did not hesitate and said directly: "Since Qingzhou is no longer sending out troops, it must be that Jiangdong does not want to fight anymore."

"They have been fighting for years and are in urgent need of recuperation."

Yuan Shao nodded.

Liu Bei said: "If Mr. Yuan trusts me, you can send my second and third brothers to take over the eldest son and sit in the plains just in case."

"My second brother and third brother are both enemies of ten thousand people. They follow me in battles all year round and lead 2 troops to defend against the enemy from Qingzhou. It is very safe."

"Then, Duke Yuan will continue his army southward to the Yellow River and attack Xudu."

"Cao Cao declined and suffered several defeats at the hands of Jiangdong."

"Now, he is sandwiched between Hebei and Jiangdong, and will be destroyed sooner or later."

"It's better to take advantage of this opportunity for Jiangdong to recuperate and destroy it."

"At that time, we will confront Jiangdong head-on and avenge today."

Yuan Shao nodded heavily and said: "I also thought that Cao Cao should be destroyed first. It seems that we heroes have the same views!"

After drinking another glass of wine with Liu Bei, Yuan Shao smiled and said: "Mr. Xuande, I have always valued you. This time, how about appointing you as the vanguard to go south to Xudu and capture Cao Cao?"

Liu Bei hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Mr. Yuan has great respect for you, how dare Liu Bei refuse to die?"

Yuan Shao held Liu Bei's hand and laughed loudly: "I, Yuan Shao, are truly lucky to have such a hero as Xuande Gong to help me! Go back quickly and prepare, we will set off tomorrow!"

Liu Bei hugged his fists heavily and then left quickly.

Yuan Shao then asked his servants to go to the homes of the civil and military officials to inform them that everything would remain as usual. Those who were selected to go on the expedition at midnight tomorrow would set off with him normally.

This time, Tian Feng was arrested and Jushou took Tian Feng's place.

At the same time, he appointed Guan Yu as the captain of Pingyuan and Zhang Fei as his deputy. They went to Pingyuan to take over the eldest son Yuan Tan and sit in Pingyuan to prevent Jiangdong from moving north.

Jushou returned home and was about to take a bath.

During this period of time in the dungeon, he smelled bad.

Before the servants at home had boiled the water, the general's mansion sent a clerk to inform him that he would take over Tian Feng's place and follow Yuan Shao tomorrow morning to continue southward to fight against Cao Cao.

Ju Shou: "."

Why so decisive?
Does he not care about the advice of his ministers at all?
