Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 415 You don't need the territory, but you can't get angry!
Guan Yu didn't chase after him, but asked Ji Ling from behind, "Ji Ling! Let me ask you, why did you slander my elder brother?!"

Seeing that Guan Yu didn't come after him, Ji Ling pulled back the horse, helped the helmet that was about to fall off, and said to Guan Yu:

"Hmph! Bad thief Guan Yu, do you still have the face to ask this general? Your righteous brother Liu Bei has already led the soldiers and horses that my lord gave him to Jiang Xia to throw Liu Biao!"

A look of surprise flashed in Guan Yu's eyes, but he didn't show it on his face. He just watched Ji Ling run away with cold eyes, and then turned back to the city.

Seeing that Yuan Shu's general, Ji Ling, failed to defeat Guan Yu, everyone in Xuzhou immediately showed joy on their faces, and those who had questioned Guan Yu's martial arts at first felt a little relieved.

Nazhou Mu Taoqian was so happy that his eyes almost narrowed. He held Guan Yu's hand and said, "Yun Chang is good at martial arts, good at martial arts! With Yun Chang here, I am afraid that I will have no worries in Xuzhou!"

Guan Yu begged Tao Qian's hand to be serious and said:

"It's just a mere Ji Ling. It's too early for Mr. Tao to say. The most important thing right now is to let the general familiarize himself with Xuzhou's military affairs as soon as possible, including the deployment of soldiers and horses in each department, and the number of soldiers available in each city. Only in this way can we ensure nothing goes wrong. .”

Tao Qian nodded after hearing this, and he said to the general who had just delivered the message for him: "Zhang Kai, go to the conference hall and briefly talk with General Yun about my military situation in Xuzhou."

Guan Yu looked at the general, and saw that this man had a ferocious face, and there was a scar across half of his face. He didn't look like a benevolent person, so he immediately lost a little respect for Qi.

Zhang Kai said to Guan Yu, "General Yun Chang, please follow me."

"Ah."

Guan Yu nodded with a "huh" and followed Zhang Kai forward. Feeling the negligence in Guan Yu's tone, there was a trace of displeasure in his opened eyes.

Outside the city, Yuan Shujun camp
After Ji Ling was defeated and retreated, he immediately wrote a letter about what happened here and sent it to Yuan Shu on a fast horse. Yuan Shu in Huainan received Ji Ling's news that night.

Yuan Shu was lying on his side on the couch, covered with exquisite brocade, holding Ji Ling's handwriting in his hand. After reading it, Yuan Shu casually threw it on the ground, changed his position and continued to lie down. said:

"Okay, since that's the case, then everyone should stop playing."

"Can't beat Guan Yu, right? Then there must be someone who can beat him?"

"Go, write a letter to the general, and say that I, Yuan Gonggong, are willing to join forces with him and take Xuzhou together."

At this time, Yan Xiang, who was standing under Yuan Shu, hesitated and said: "My lord, if we cooperate with Hua Xiong, that is seeking skin from a tiger!"

"Wow~"

Yuan Shu dozed off, then stretched his waist: "You are right, working with the general is indeed seeking skin from a tiger."

Yan Xiang listened, and suddenly looked at Yuan Shu with some surprise, and wondered in his heart when did his lord become so talkative?Are you listening to other people's advice?
At this time, Yuan Shu went on to say:

"We really don't have the strength to cooperate with the general, so let's tell the general, I, Yuan Shu, am willing to be his pawn to be driven by him, and at the same time willing to give up the land of Yuzhou and Huainan in our hands, but the premise is that he has to lend me a Soldiers and horses, I, Yuan Gonglu, just can't swallow Liu Bei's bad breath!"

This time, not only Yan Xiang, but the other two, Yang Hong and Yuan Huan, could not stand up any longer. Yang Hong stepped forward and said, "My lord, isn't this too childish?"

Yuan Huan followed up and said, "Yes, Gonglu, are you compromising with Hua Xiong?"

Yuan Shu squinted at the two of them, and said three words briskly: "I'm afraid of death."

"What's more, he, Yuan Benchu, has already surrendered, so why should I, Yuan Gonglu, have anything to fear?"

Yang Hong persuaded:

"My lord, when Yuan Shao surrendered, he only had [-] to [-] troops in one county, but we still have half a state, with nearly [-] troops."

After hearing this, Yuan Shu got off the couch, stared at Yang Hong, held his chin in thought for a while, and said:
"Yang Hong, I suddenly realized that what you said was not unreasonable. How about this, you are the commander-in-chief of our army from the beginning, and all the generals, soldiers and horses are dispatched by you. How about you commanding against the general?"

Yang Hong never thought that Yuan Shu would say such a thing, he immediately smiled at Yuan Shu and said, "My lord, my lord is joking."

Afterwards, Yuan Shu turned his head to look at Yan Xiang and Yuan Huan, and asked, "Then do you two have such a meaning?"

Yan Xiang and Yuan Huan hurriedly said: "No, no, none of us have such a great talent."

Yuan Shu felt that things were fun just now, but he didn't expect that none of these people who advocated not surrender dared to stand up, and he couldn't help sighing for a moment:
"Hey, I'm not nice when I meet people."

Yan Xiang and Yuan Huan lowered their heads when they heard this, Yang Hong stepped forward and said, "My lord, don't be offended, we are not good at this kind of dispatching before battle, but just now, didn't your lord want to write a letter to the general? It is possible!"

Yuan Shu glanced at Yang Hong coldly, and said, "Then hurry up, the taste of writing will change when the general calls over later."

"promise."

When Hua Xiong in Yecheng received Yuan Shu's letter, he spit out a mouthful of laughter. This Yuan Shu is really a living treasure. Afterwards, Hua Xiong ordered Gao Chong, Di Qing, and Luo Cheng to lead the troops of the headquarters to Yuzhou immediately. Before leaving, Hua Xiong told the three of them to follow Yuan Shu's orders in terms of strategy, and to make decisions on their own in terms of battles and battles.

So, half a month later, Yuan Shu's subordinates instantly had [-] ghost cavalry, [-] white-robed cavalry, [-] back-backed iron cavalry, one super first-class general, and two first-class generals.

Looking at Gao Chong, Di Qing, and Luo Cheng, Yuan Shu was shocked, and when Yuan Shu's men and women saw Gao Chong's [-] soldiers and horses, they all thought that surrendering to Hua Xiong was Yuan Shu's boss. The most correct thing I have done since my lord.

At that moment, Yuan Shu directly ordered the withdrawal of all Yuzhou defenders and generals, and wrote to Hua Xiong to send someone there to take over as soon as possible. After that, Yuan Shu ordered Gao Chong to go to Xuzhou to support Ji Ling, while he himself led Di Qing and Luo Cheng, together with five Wan's soldiers and horses rushed to Jiangxia.

In Yuan Shu's words, the territory is not necessary, but this bad breath must be obtained!
Ji Ling, who had been stationed outside Xiapi City, had no time to marvel at the efficiency of Yuan Shu's surrender. Gao Chong had already led the troops ten miles away from the camp. Ji Ling went to greet them in person, but at the gate of the camp, Gao Chong refused. Ji Ling kindly said:

"I haven't moved for a long time, let's practice my muscles and bones first."

With that said, Gao Chong led his men to the outside of Xiapi city on horseback, shouting to the city to fight.

After a while, the city gate of Xiapi opened, and Guan Yu rushed out of the city on his horse. He saw the flaming war horse from a distance, and felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.
