Chapter 234

In the southern part of Guangling County, Xuzhou, Yuan Shu snorted coldly while sitting in the tent, and said, "I never thought that Liu Bei would ambush Zhang Ji. It seems that he has someone to help him!"

After Zhang Xun heard Yuan Shu's words, he quickly interceded for Zhang Ji: "Your Majesty, Liu Bei's three brave generals are really hard to resist, even Chen Dao and Chen Shuzhi's martial arts are not easy."

"Zhang Ji was ambushed by Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun under Liu Bei's command at the same time. He only lost hundreds of Danyang elite soldiers and Yangzhou elite soldiers, which is already very rare."

"Now that Cao Cao has also led his troops to the northern part of Guangling County, it is not a good thing for us!"

"Your Majesty, why don't we withdraw our troops for now, and attack Xuzhou after uniting with Han Pengju?"

Zhang Xun is in charge of the Seventh Route Army, and now he has seen that Xuzhou is quite impenetrable.

If this goes on and Xuzhou Liu Bei is exhausted, I am afraid that he will eventually be defeated by the joint efforts of him and Cao Cao.

What's more, Jiangdong still has a fierce tiger, Sun Jian. If he is allowed to attack the hinterland of Yangzhou, it will be in big trouble.

Yuan Shu snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "Can I still be afraid of Cao Mengde? Cao Cao has already sent a large number of troops to attack Hanzhong. This matter can be hidden from Han Wu, but it cannot be hidden from me!"

"Zhang Lu is surrounded by my confidants, and all his actions of Cao Mengde are under my surveillance, so why should I be afraid?"

Seeing that His Majesty was so determined to go his own way, Zhang Xun secretly sighed and said nothing more.

Yan Xiang showed a smile, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, you just feel that you have just sent troops, and you can't take Xuzhou without meritorious deeds. You just withdraw your troops because you don't have face."

Having spoken so bluntly to his heart, Yuan Shu's face turned pale immediately, and he glared at Yan Xiang.

But Yuan Shu saw Yan Xiang's confident appearance, and immediately understood that this guy must have thought of a good way.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Yuan Shu snorted coldly and said, "Yan Xiang! You dare to disobey my ideas, and you should be executed for your crime!"

After scaring Yan Xiang, Yuan Shu hoped that Yan Xiang would stop being so blunt and embarrass himself.

"However, it seems that you have some clever plan. If you tell me and let me hear it, it will be regarded as making up for your mistakes!"

After Yan Xiang heard His Majesty's words, he also smiled slightly, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, we have been fighting in Xuzhou for nearly two months, and Liu Bei also chose not to fight."

"Xuzhou's grain and grass are no longer as rich as Yangzhou's. We will lose out in a protracted war with Liu Bei."

"We might as well get a golden cicada to escape its shell, and the army will go straight south and kill that Jiangdong tiger!"

"In this way, His Majesty is not without any achievements, and we can also stabilize Yangzhou."

Hearing Yan Xiang's words, Yuan Shu immediately understood that this was to transfer troops to deal with Sun Jian!

Although Yangzhou was guarded by heavy troops, it was impossible for Sun Jian to succeed in a sneak attack, but it was absolutely impossible for those troops to fight back.

If the golden cicada can get out of its shell now, and the army goes south to ambush Sun Jian, he will definitely be defeated!

Yuan Shu smiled. He clenched his fists and said, "Just follow this plan. Let's find a way to transfer our troops and go south!"

"However, Han Jizhou still needs to get in touch. It would be great if we can get help from that boy Han Pengju."

Squinting his eyes, Yuan Shu seemed to have seen Sun Jian's head in front of him.

In the Governor's Mansion of Qingzhou, Meng Gong summoned Xu Huang and Tai Shici, who were guarding the southern part of Qingzhou, and planned to go south to attack Beihai County.

Tai Shici bowed to Meng Gong, holding his fists, and said: "General Meng, now that Yuan Shu is usurping the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, it would be better for us in Jizhou not to send troops?"

"If other plotters think that we are really responding to Yuan Shu, then we will be in trouble."

Xu Huang remained silent, because the lord had said that he had full authority to obey Meng Gong's arrangement.

Meng Gong smiled confidently: "Ziyi, this is because you didn't think carefully."

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are both of the Yuan family, and our crusade against Yuan Shao is equivalent to a real crusade against Yuan Shu."

"It's just that we can't say it too clearly. We can only say that it is a crusade against the Yuan Shao clan in the Yuan family!"

"General Zhang He and General Qu Yi of Weijun cannot lead troops to attack Yanzhou, and Youzhou has just been pacified. Only Qingzhou can send troops."

"Listen to me. Three days later, [-] troops will go south to attack Beihai County. Let's test Yuan Shao's strength first."

Tai Shici and Xu Huang heard Meng Gong's decision, but neither denied it.

Yuan Shao has been disarming and developing in Beihai County for a year, and now he is no longer the bereaved dog he was before.

At the very least, his general Wen Chou has already controlled all the troops, threatening to avenge Yan Liang every day!

On the streets of Yecheng, Jizhou, Han Wu wandered around holding Zhen Mi's little hand, with Hua Mulan at his side.

The bloodthirsty tiger guards completely surrounded both ends of the street, but they did not affect the common people.

"Brother Han Wu, I want that thing!"

Holding Han Wu's hand, Zhen Mi pointed to the bracelet on the table next to a peddler, begging Han Wu.

The big watery eyes are beautiful and cute, Han Wu has no reason to refuse at all.

Moreover, Han Wu himself would not refuse such a simple matter that could make Bomei people smile.

Han Wu didn't even think about it, just like the peddler who was going to buy the bracelet.

Naturally, the vendor heard the words of the beautiful girl next to Mr. Han, so he hurriedly walked towards him, dragging the bracelet with both hands.

"Mr. Han, this is a little filial piety, no money, no money!"

The vendor was very nervous, he was afraid that Han Wu would make things difficult for himself.

Han Wu laughed loudly and said, "Oh? What are you doing? Are you afraid that I, Han Pengju, will bully you?"

"Everyone in Yecheng knows that I, Han Pengju, are the most close to the people. How can I accept your gift?"

"It's not easy for you traders to sell things. The money you earn has to go home to support your parents, daughter-in-law and children. Naturally, I can't ask for your things for nothing."

"These five copper coins are for you, take them!"

Han Wu removed five copper plates from his sleeve, took the bracelet and threw it to the vendor.

The merchant quickly caught the copper plate in fear and trepidation, and kept thanking Mr. Han.

However, Han Wu smiled slightly, put the bracelet on Zhen Mi's wrist, and took advantage of the opportunity to knead oil on her hand.

"Thank you bro~"

Zhen Mi hugged Han Wu's arm with a smile, raised her wrist and looked at the very simple bracelet.

Seeing the girl next to Mr. Han hugging his arm so intimately, the other common people discussed who she was.

Some people with sharp eyes and ears recognized Zhen Mi's identity, and said that she was Zhen Mi, a well-known little good man in Jizhou.

Then the common people applauded and praised the talent and beauty of the man and woman.

Han Wu's vanity was satisfied by the compliments of the people to the report, and he dragged Zhen Mi to the most luxurious restaurant in Yecheng.

Although the common people complimented Han Wu, they were all grateful in their hearts.

If it weren't for the tariff system that Mr. Han came up with and implemented directly, the people in Yecheng would not be able to live such a good life.
