Although he has full confidence in his subordinates, he is also afraid that they will be conceited.
Yangzhou can stand the test of failure, but does not want to experience failure.
Liu Ke still has his own things to do, as long as the South does not affect the strategy, it doesn't matter how he develops.
Finally, the main force of Yangzhou entered Runan.
Yuan Shu got the news immediately. At this moment, his mood is very complicated.
For the first time, Liu Ke came and flew away, without stopping at all.So Yuan Shu didn't find a chance to speak.
Now Yuan Shu is full of confidence. After all, he has resisted Cao Cao for so long for Yangzhou, and lost troops and lost generals.
This time was the same, Liu Ke did not enter Runan City, but set up camp in the wild.
"Does the Marquis of Dongyang despise me?" Yuan Shu suddenly asked unconfidently. If Yangzhou proposed to enter Runan City, he would definitely not refuse.
But now he couldn't understand the situation.
"My lord, I'm worrying too much. I'm afraid the Marquis of Dongyang wants to fight Cao Cao's army as soon as possible." Yan Xiang said.
"As expected of the Marquis of Dongyang, it's not unreasonable to be able to make the princes of the world fearful." Yuan Shu couldn't help but flattering him, but it was a pity that Liu was not there.
Yuan Shu was the happiest when the Northern Route Army failed.Yangzhou will definitely solve Cao Cao's threat if he frees up his hands.
No, it didn't take long to arrive in Runan.
"My lord, we are the hosts, should we welcome the Marquis of Dongyang?" Yan Xiang asked.
Dongyanghou didn't come, so Yuan Shu could go there, but he just lost face.
But what is face?
Yuan Shu has already seen it. The reason why Yuan Benchu is better than him is because his skin is thick enough.
For example, he tricked Gongsun Zan into attacking Jizhou. After Yuan Shao took over Jizhou, he forgot about Gongsun Zan.And this time the Allied Forces withdrew as soon as they said they would withdraw, which directly caused heavy losses to the North Route Army.
In these two incidents, Yuan Shao gained benefits and his strength developed rapidly.
There is also Sun Ce, who looks honest on the surface, but is actually really bad in his heart.
But Yuan Shu thought that he was too honest, so there had always been only one Runan County.
This time, he must forge ahead, starting with meeting Dongyanghou.
For Yuan Shu's visit, Liu Ke was not surprised at all, and asked Guo Jia to arrange the reception.If Yuan Shu didn't come, Liu Ke would also come.
Although Yuan Shu only had [-] troops left, his strength should not be underestimated.The Yuan family has been operating in Runan for many years, and the reputation of four generations and three princes is not in vain.
No, Cao Cao hit his head badly here.
As soon as Yuan Shu came in, he said with a low profile: "Greetings, Dongyanghou!"
Liu Ke was not polite to Yuan Shu either, and said, "Sit down!"
Yuan Shu sat opposite Liu Ke, observed Liu Ke's expression, very gloomy.Yuan Shu's heart skipped a beat. Would he inadvertently offend Marquis Dongyang?
"Marquis Dongyang, there is a festival between us, now, for the sake of guarding the gate of Yangzhou, let me write it off?" Yuan Shu said.
Liu Ke would not refuse either emotionally or rationally, and said, "Yes."
To be honest, he didn't take Yuan Shu seriously.But since Yuan Shu is on his side, he should be given enough respect.
"Runan helped us a lot this time, and I hereby promise to sell a batch of armaments to Runan afterwards." Liu Ke said.
Yuan Shu was overjoyed. In the past few months, he has suffered a lot.Cao Cao's new army was only [-], but it caused him great trouble.
"Thank you, Marquis Dongyang!"
But this little compensation is not enough for Yuan Shu's efforts.
So Yuan Shu hesitated to speak, but Yan Xiang said generously, "My lord wants half of Jingzhou."
Wow, what a big breath.
Liu Ke likes to talk directly about the conditions, but sometimes the conditions are too shocking, and it is easy to get away with it.
If it is only to defeat the main force of Sun Ce's army, it is impossible to force him to surrender half of Jingzhou.Only when Yangzhou sent troops to take Jingzhou completely, would it be possible to distribute half of Jingzhou to Yuan Shu.
However, Yangzhou has made such a big effort, how could it be possible to give in?
Therefore, Yan Xiang was completely dreaming, and it was also Yuan Shu's temptation.
Liu Ke would not agree to this matter, and he rejected it cleanly, saying:
"I am very grateful for everything you have done to help Yangzhou. Well, you can develop towards Yuzhou. I will bear the resistance from Cao Cao and Sun Ce."
In other words, Cao Cao and Sun Ce must not interfere in Yuzhou, otherwise Yangzhou will send troops.
Of course, this is not Liu Ke's final promise, and it depends on Yuan Shu's performance in the subsequent wars.
The reason why we are talking about things after the victory now is to appease people's hearts.
If I don't make it clear now, after the victory of the war, Liu Ke said that he only gave Yuan Shu a fart, but he could only accept it silently.
After all, Yuan Shu is just a pseudo ally.At the beginning, he chose to fight to the end because of the battle of spirits.
Liu Ke paid the benefits because Yuan Shu was helpful to Yangzhou, which was far from being treated as a real ally.
