"..." Liu Bei was of course a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything more, "Ming Gong is wise."

The next day, Liu Bei took Guan Yu, Yan Liang, Chen Gong, and [-] elite soldiers to Qingzhou to attack Xuzhou in the south.

At the same time, Guo Tu, as an envoy, went to Kaiyang to persuade Zang Ba to surrender.

The smoke of gunpowder will once again fill Xuzhou.

Chapter 049

Yuan Shu fled in a hurry, but Yingwu didn't intend to let him go. He crossed the Huai River and continued southward.

Zhongli, Yinling, and Xiquyang all looked forward to the wind.

The main force of the Qin army advanced directly to thirty miles east of Shouchun City.

The Qin army set up camp, and the grain and grass were sent through the Huai River. Obviously, they vowed not to give up if they didn't take Shouchun.

War is imminent.

Yuan Shu put on the golden armor for the first time, climbed to the top of the city, and looked at the camp of the Qin army.

For the first time since becoming a vassal, Yuan Shu felt afraid.

Beside Yuan Shu was the number one general in the army, Ji Ling, who was also the great general of the Great Zhong Dynasty.

"General, how is our army's defense?"

Ji Ling immediately replied: "Your Majesty, there are [-] soldiers and horses in Shouchun City, and there is plenty of food and grass."

"Besides, Shouchun City is tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Qin army is only [-] people, and it is absolutely impossible to conquer Shouchun. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"That's good." Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as the Qin army can't attack Shouchun, they will surely retreat after a long time, so I can rest assured."

In the battle of Huai Ling, Yuan Shu was really scared by Ying Wu.

Fuck, that's seven thousand to forty-two thousand, one to six.

The fear of the Qin army's reckless fighting was beyond Yuan Shu's imagination.

What bird's military title system, is it really that powerful?

It is a pity that Yuan Shu, who was born in the fourth generation and third prince, could not experience the feelings of poor people at all.

"General, I will leave the defense of Shouchun to you."

"Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Le Jiu, Han Xian, Liang Gang, and Yang Feng, the six of them will be your assistants."

"No matter how much you pay, you must secure Shouchun City."

Ji Ling swore: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the general will never disappoint His Majesty's trust."

"Shouchun City is here, and the end will be here."

"Shouchun City is broken, and it will eventually perish."

"Okay, I trust you." Yuan Shu patted Ji Ling's shoulder, turned around and went down the tower.

Yuan Shu on the tower was worried, lest the Qin army would break through Shouchun City.

One hundred thousand against fifty thousand, Yuan Shu has no confidence in street fighting.

But after returning to the palace, Yuan Shu forgot about the Qin army outside the city and the worry just now.

Fine wine, delicacies, beauties, sexy dances, and luxurious palace banquets are going on in a lively and peaceful atmosphere.

Yuan Shu drank so much that he could hardly keep his eyes open, and even forgot about the current crisis.

"Prime Minister, why are you all so sad?"

"Such delicious food, beauties and dances, can't you be satisfied?"

"Why don't you let the queen perform a dance for you, how about it?"

Empress Feng's expression on the side changed slightly.

But seeing Yuan Shu's drunk appearance, Empress Feng just sighed slightly and did not persuade him any more.

Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I dare not wait."

"It's just that our army was defeated in Huai Ling, and the morale of the army fluctuated."

"The crown prince and Lord Yuan Huan were captured, and their life and death are unknown."

"Jiangdong Sun Ce broke with His Majesty on the grounds that His Majesty betrayed the great man."

"Only the two counties in Huainan remain in Da Zhong's territory."

"Right now, the Qin army will attack Shouchun at any time."

"If Shouchun is restrained, Dazhong will die. How can Your Majesty be in the mood to drink and enjoy singing and dancing?"

"Hahaha..." Facing Yan Xiang's direct remonstrance, Yuan Shu was not annoyed for the first time, but laughed out loud.

"Prime Minister, do you think I'm really stupid?"

"Do you think I really gave up on myself?"

"No, no, my heart is like a mirror."

Yan Xiang was taken aback, and asked, "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"

Yuan Shu sat up slowly, drank the wine in the wine bottle, put down the wine bottle, stood up, full of vigor.

"Prime Minister, all dear ministers, please think about it."

"The little thief Qin occupies Xuzhou and lies beside Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. How can these two feel at ease?"

"The reason why they didn't send troops is because I sent troops. They want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"It's a pity that the Zhen army was defeated, and it was defeated so quickly and so badly."

"This matter is not a good thing for my Dazhong, but it is not a bad thing either."

Yan Xiang and the others were all confused.

Yuan Jun's defeat, such a quick defeat, and such a miserable defeat must be a bad thing, why is it not a bad thing.

Yuan Shu looked smug, and continued: "The Qin army is so strong, how can Yuan Shao and Cao Cao be able to sit still?"

"If the Qin army is allowed to take Huainan and become bigger and stronger, it will definitely threaten Yuan Shao and Cao Cao."

"Therefore, as long as our army can guard Shouchun City for a month, there will be changes in the north."

"Just now, I asked Ji Ling about the city defense."

"Shouchun City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with abundant food and grass, and an army of [-]."

"Don't say it is a month, it is not a problem to stick to it for a year."

"And once there is a change in Xuzhou, how can the little Qin thief not retreat to the north?"

"In this way, the siege of Shouchun can be solved, and Dazhong will no longer be in danger of subjugation. Wouldn't it be wonderful."

"..." Yan Xiang and the others were speechless for a while.

It's outrageous to entrust one's own destiny in the hands of others.

However, Yan Xiang and others had to admit that Yuan Shu's analysis was very reasonable.

Neither Yuan Shao nor Cao Cao will allow Yingwu to expand in Xuzhou and annex Huainan.

Although there are only two counties in Huainan, there are millions of people.

At this moment, a Royal Forest Army came in from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Yecheng that Yuan Shao has ordered Yuan Tan from Qingzhou to mobilize [-] troops to attack Xuzhou in the south."

"The advisers are Xin Ping and Chen Gong, and the generals are Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Yan Liang."

"Yuan Shao also sent Guo Tu as an envoy to Kaiyang to persuade Zang Ba to join forces to attack Xu."

"After the event is completed, Yuan Shao Xu Zang Ba will be the general of Zhendong and Xuzhou Mu."

Yuan Shu laughed out loud when he heard this: "My dear friends, did you hear me clearly?"

"The detailed report is exactly the same as my guess just now, exactly the same."

Yang Hong immediately laughed and said: "Your Majesty is wise, like Sun Wu reborn, I admire you."

Yuan Shu was even more complacent, and laughed loudly: "When Yuan Shao sends troops, the little Qin thief will definitely return to Xuzhou immediately, so Shouchun has no worries, I have no worries, and Da Zhong has no worries."

"Your Majesty is wise." All the ministers immediately shouted together.

At this time, Yuan Shu suddenly remembered something and looked at Qiao Rui.

"Qiao Aiqing, I told you about the matter in Huai Ling. When I return to Shouchun, I will accept your two daughters into the palace as concubines."

"Now that I have returned to the palace, it is time for you to send your two daughters to the palace."

Yang Hong immediately said with a smile: "Congratulations to General Qiao, he will be our Dazhong's head of state from now on."

Qiao Rui wanted to slap Yang Hong hard, damn it, I don't want to be the head of this shit.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the last general's two daughters have occasionally suffered from wind and cold in recent years and are not feeling well, so it is temporarily inconvenient for them to enter the palace."

Yuan Shu snorted coldly: "It's okay, I will send the imperial doctor to Qiao Aiqing's house tomorrow to treat their illnesses."

"If you are really sick, I will give you a few more days."

"If they are healthy, Qiao Aiqing will be guilty of deceiving the emperor."

When Qiao Rui heard this, his expression changed immediately, his heart was startled, and the resentment in his eyes flashed away.

Chapter 050

Yuan Shu was so proud that he couldn't help but drank a few more glasses and got drunk.

The banquet is over.

Qiao Rui returned to the mansion.

The big and small bridges were still up, and when they heard that their father was back, they both went out to meet him.

"My daughter has met my father." After saluting, Xiaoqiao supported Qiaorui's arms from left to right, and walked towards the backyard.

Daqiao had an introverted personality and a more delicate mind. He asked, "Your Majesty is hosting a banquet at the Palace tonight. Why is Your Majesty so preoccupied? Could it be something happened in the Battle of Shouchun?"

Xiaoqiao's personality is more lively, so he didn't care about Qiaorui's expression at first.

After being reminded by Daqiao, Xiaoqiao also noticed it, and asked, "Yes, father, why are you so unhappy?"

"This..." Qiao Rui hesitated, whether to tell the two daughters.

Since Fa's wife died, Qiao Rui didn't remarry, but only took a few concubines.

It can be seen how much Qiao Rui loves these two precious daughters.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiao immediately shook Qiao Rui's arm and acted coquettishly: "Father, just tell your daughters, okay?"

"Okay." Qiao Rui, who liked Xiaoqiao's coquettishness the most, couldn't help but sighed, "I have to let you all know about this matter after all."

So Qiao Rui told the story of the incident.

Finally, Qiao Rui sighed again: "It seems that His Majesty's patience is limited."

"Tomorrow, the imperial physician will come to our residence, I'm afraid you two will never be able to escape."

The big and small bridges were stunned like five thunderbolts.

There is no girl in Huaichun who does not yearn for love.

Big and small bridges have also been longing for.

They all hope that their husband-in-law is a hero with both civil and military skills, handsome and gentle to them.

However, the dream was shattered in an instant.

That bad old man Yuan Shu, that big fat blob, actually wants to accept them as concubines.

Just thinking about it casually made them feel retched, and would rather die than follow Yuan Shu.

Qiao Rui was sad for a while: "I knew this before, even if I fought for my father's reputation, I would take you away from Shouchun and join Mingzhu."

"But now, Yuan Shu has sent troops to guard our Qiaofu, and there is no escape."
