Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 107 Yuan Shu's Ambition
In the county town of Guangling County

Yuan Shu was appointed as a general in the county guard's mansion, but he was not angry at the defeat of Lei Bo and Liu Xun.

Although Lei Bo and Liu Xun failed to attack Huai Ling and lost a lot of troops, it was not useless.

They delayed Lu Bu of Pengcheng who went south to support, allowing Yuan Shu's main force to successfully take Guangling County City!

Now half of Guangling is in Yuan Shu's hands, but he can't go north again, because Liu Bei personally leads troops south to guard the northern part of Guangling County.

But winning half of Guangling already made Yuan Shu very happy.

Yuan Shu quietly looked at Lei Bo and Liu Xun who came to plead guilty after the fiasco, and he still snorted coldly.

Yuan Shu said: "Lei Bo Liu Xun, you have damaged so much of my troops, you should be severely punished."

"But because of your contribution to stopping Lu Bu, I will spare you this time. If there is a next time, you will be punished for both crimes!"

"Go down!"

Yuan Shu was not angry, he just put on a show, showing that rewards and punishments were clearly defined in front of other generals.

Both Lei Bo and Liu Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and they immediately appreciated the lord's tolerance.

The other generals didn't feel dissatisfied either, because everyone knew that it was not easy for Lei Bo and Liu Xun to block Lu Bu.

No merit, no fault, at least Yuan Shu's generals believed that Liu Xun and Lei Bo were not punished properly.

In Huaiyin County in the north of Guangling County, Guan Yu personally led troops to guard here, forming a corner with Liu Bei in Huai'an County.

Guan Yu has three thousand Danyang elite soldiers under his command.

These were lent by Tao Qian to Liu Bei to help him defend against Yuan Shu.

Liu Bei himself currently has 7000 Danyang elite soldiers, 2000 Xuzhou recruits and [-] Xuzhou Yellow Turbans.

In Huai'an County

Liu Bei summoned Sun Qian and Jian Yong, his advisers, and asked them about the situation.

"Gongyou, Xianhe, we now have a heavy army, how do you think we should resist Yuan Shu's Yangzhou army?"

Liu Bei frowned slightly. Actually, he didn't want to quarrel with Yuan Shu. After all, once a war started, a lot of troops would be consumed.

He didn't have many plays under his command, so Liu Bei naturally had to take his own family property into account and couldn't give it a go.

Hearing that his eldest brother was so hesitant, Zhang Fei yelled directly, beating his chest to ask for a fight.

"Brother, give me two thousand troops, not to mention whether I can defeat Yuan Shu, at least I can drive away Qiao Rui!"

Zhang Fei originally had a leopard head and round eyes, but now his eyes widened, and he challenged Liu Bei very confidently.

Liu Bei glanced at his third younger brother, he shook his head, and said, "Yide, Qiao Rui is after all a general under Yuan Shu's command, and he has made great achievements in battle."

"Also, you have seen Tao Shijun's Danyang elite soldiers. They are all the best of the best, and there must be no mistakes."

"Yuan Shu controls Yangzhou, and his jurisdiction includes Danyang County. Presumably, Yuan Shu must also have Danyang soldiers as his elite cards."

Liu Bei didn't want to attack rashly, so he decided to stick to Huai'an and wait for the opportunity.

While Liu Bei was thinking about countermeasures, a young general in white robe and silver armor walked in with a spear in hand.

This person is handsome, and it is Zhao Yun that Liu Bei "borrowed" from Gongsun Zan!

It's just that Zhao Yun is still relatively young now, and has a great growth value in terms of force, so he still can't beat Zhang Fei.

But Zhang Fei did not underestimate Zhao Yun at all.

This young man, who was much younger than himself, already had pretty good martial arts.

Zhao Yun walked up to Liu Bei calmly, clasped his fists and bowed his head in salute, and reported: "My lord, the scouts have found out about Yuan Shu's deployment of troops, and his army is in the county town of Guangling County."

"Qiao Rui's trilogy is heading towards Huai Ling, and it seems that they are preparing to attack Huai Ling again, so as to take down Xiapi in one fell swoop."

After Liu Bei heard Zhao Yun's report, he nodded slightly, showing a very kind smile.

"Zilong has worked hard. The scouts under your command are the only eyeliner I can rely on. With you here, I feel at ease."

"Zilong go down and rest! I need to trouble Zilong to call General Uncle Zhi. I have some important matters to discuss with him."

Shuzhi is the name of Chen Dao.

Chen Dao is a brave general under Liu Bei's command, but he does things in a low-key manner, but his force is not inferior to Zhao Yun's now.

Liu Bei's smile made Zhao Yun feel very comfortable. After saluting to the lord, he left the court.

Zhao Yun quickly responded: "Don't dare! My lord praised me, these are all Zhao Yun's duties."

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that Liu Bei did not regard Zhao Yun as his confidant.

Because he didn't intend to let Zhao Yun come together for a while to listen to the battle plan.

It's just that Zhao Yun himself was in it, and he didn't see through Liu Bei's thoughts.

In less than half a stick of incense, Chen Dao, who was in charge of guarding the city tower, rushed over, ready to obey the command of the lord.

Liu Bei didn't know whether his plan was perfect, so he could only drive the ducks to the shelves and try his best to cooperate with Lu Bu to repel Yuan Shu.

"General Yide, from tomorrow you will continue to guard the two cities of Huai'an and Huaiyin. I will go south with Yide to defend against Yuan Shu."

"Mr. Xianhe, please write a letter to ask Yun Chang to lead troops to Huai Ling tomorrow morning to defend against Qiao Rui."

"Mr. Gongyou wrote a letter, asking Lu Bu of Pengcheng to send troops to help us in my name. Only he can help us repel Yuan Shu."

When Liu Bei gave the order, Zhang Fei was dissatisfied before he finished speaking, and wanted to refute.

But Zhang Fei still waited for the elder brother to finish speaking before he said, "Elder brother, why do you want to cooperate with that three-surname domestic slave?"

"Although Lu Bu, the family servant of the three surnames, is brave, he may not be my opponent, Zhang Fei from Yan!"

Zhang Fei hated Lu Bu very much. He was unwilling to cooperate with Lu Bu, so he expressed his dissatisfaction.

But Liu Bei jumped up against the case and said slightly angrily: "Yide! We must cooperate with Lu Bu, because he has a large number of cavalry troops in his hands."

"His military strength can save us a lot of consumption, and Lu Bu's army consumes Tao Shijun's food and grass, so it should send troops to contribute."

Liu Bei taught Zhang Fei a lesson, but he slowed down his tone and calmed down halfway through his words.

Obviously restraining his dissatisfaction with Zhang Fei's refutation, he quietly explained to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was very unconvinced at first, but he didn't dare to interrupt to refute, but after hearing the last sentence of his elder brother, he understood.

Zhang Fei immediately smiled and said, "Brother is right, Lu Bu is wasting Tao Shijun's food and grass, so he must send troops!"

"But I, Zhang Fei, don't cooperate with Lu Bu. He is a capricious villain, and I can't cooperate with him."

"I am willing to personally lead the army to resist Yuan Shu. Even Zhang Fei alone is enough to defeat Yuan Shu!"

Zhang Fei was full of confidence, but his honesty made Liu Bei smile and nodded slightly.

Jian Yong and Sun Qian immediately went to write the documents, and sent fast horses to Guan Yu and Lu Bu in Pengcheng in Huai'an County.

Zhang Fei and Chen Dao also left the courtyard.

After Liu Bei returned to his room, he sighed faintly, lay down and prepared to rest and fall asleep.

When he leads his troops back to Xuzhou this time, it will be the day of Liu Bei's big wedding, and it will be the day when his wife and concubine take it together.
