Nanyang County, subordinate to Jingzhou, is known as the largest county in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

There are thirty-seven cities, half a million households, and a population of more than 2.4 million.

Runan, next to Nanyang County, also has 37 cities, 400,000 households, and a population of 2.1 million. It is the second largest county after Nanyang County!

And these two large counties.

Runan County is the hometown of the Yuan family in Runan.

Nanyang County is also the area actually governed by Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang.

Although Yuan Shu only occupied two counties.

But these two counties are not inferior to any other state!

Yuan Shu held a great civil and military banquet in Runan, and suddenly news of success came.

When Yuan Shu saw it, he immediately laughed heartily:

“As expected of my general Ji Ling!”

“Shouchun City has been captured by Ji Ling!”

Yuan Shu circulated Ji Ling’s victory report to his subordinates.

The young general suddenly came out and said:”My lord, General Ji is brave and admirable. Now Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang, disobeys my lord’s order. Give me a soldier and horse, and the general will replace him.” Lord, conquer Lujiang!”

Yuan Shu took a look and saw that it was Sun Jian’s eldest son. He was now nineteen years old and had inherited Sun Jian’s martial arts.

Because Sun Ce’s maternal uncle Wu Jing, the prefect of Danyang, did not get along with Tao Qian, Sun Ce moved his family to Qu’a and joined Yuan Shu himself. Yuan

Shu He loved Sun Ce very much and often regarded him as his adopted son.

Hearing Sun Ce mention Lu Kang, Yuan Shu’s expression suddenly turned gloomy:”I asked Lu Kang to give me 30,000 dendrobium meters before. Damn it, Lu Kang dares to talk about me.” It’s rebellion! Sun Ce, I will give you 20,000 troops and horses, and let me chop off Lu Kang’s head back! Sun

Ce was overjoyed:”Don’t worry, my lord, I will kill anyone who disobeys you on your lord’s behalf!””

At this moment, another urgent report came back.

The soldier who reported the message staggered:”Lord! General Ji was beheaded!”

As soon as the words fell, the entire banquet fell into silence.

Yuan Shu was stunned, and immediately dropped the wine bottle:”What kind of madman dares to lie about the military situation? If anyone comes, throw him out and kill him!”

We just got the good news that Ji Ling defeated Shouchun.

Then suddenly someone came and said that Ji Ling was beheaded. Who the hell would believe this!

Yuan Shu’s eyes were gloomy, thinking who was deliberately disgusting him!

The soldiers were frightened and terrified. , kept kowtowing:”Lord, I didn’t lie about the military situation! Xu Xiao, the governor of Xuzhou, suddenly appeared in Shouchun. General Ji and Deputy General Xun were both killed by Xu Xiao!”

Xuzhou governor, Xu Xiao?

Yuan Shu stood up suddenly

“This is impossible, how could Xu Xiao appear in Shouchun! Li

Feng, the chief secretary, sternly asked the soldiers who reported the news:”How many troops does Xu Xiao have?””

The soldier trembled and said:”Eight, eight hundred cavalry.”

What?

Eight hundred men?

Li Feng blurted out:”Although I am the chief clerk and do not understand battle formations, eight hundred cavalry will attack Shouchun.

It is ridiculous!

The pawn’s voice was filled with tears:”Sir, it’s really eight hundred cavalry.

Lieutenant General Xun led 3,000 troops to intercept Xu Xiao.

They were scattered in one round, and Lieutenant General Xun was also beheaded; General Ji was also killed because of Xu Xiao.

” Xiao only had 800 men.

He had no time to organize his troops and was killed by Xu Xiao.

“Then the eight hundred cavalry charged back and forth in Shouchun City. Although we wanted to resist, we couldn’t stop them at all!”

“The 30,000-strong army was wiped out by Xu Xiao’s 800 cavalry.”

“The little one escaped only by luck!”

The soldier’s words were a little messy, and his tone was high and low.

But everyone still understood.

Eight hundred people defeated Shouchun, killed deputy general Xun Zheng, chief general Ji Ling, and even defeated 30,000 soldiers with 30,000 heads. He charged like a rabbit who dared to resist.

Terrifying combat power!

The more Yuan Shu listened, the more he heard. He kicked over the wine case and said:”This person has disturbed the morale of our army. Go out and kill him!” The pawn was shocked and said:”

My lord, please spare my life, everything I said is true!””

But Yuan Shu was so angry that he was not willing to listen.

In a moment, the soldiers beheaded the soldiers.

“hateful!”

“The dog thief Xu Xiao dared to kill my beloved general and take away my longevity.”

Yuan Shu is so angry!

Ji Ling is Yuan Shu’s favorite general. He is highly skilled in martial arts, good at commanding troops, and very loyal. But now he was beheaded by Xu Xiao in Shouchun.

This makes Yuan Shu not angry!

“Liu Xun, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Sun Ce!”

“Immediately mobilize the three armies. I want to go to Shouchun personally and kill that thief Xu Xiao!”

Although Li Feng, the chief clerk, wanted to persuade Yuan Shu to calm down.

But thinking of the messenger who had just been killed, Li Feng decisively shut his mouth.

Yan Xiang, Yuan Huan, Yang Hong and others also remained silent.

At this time.

Who dares to persuade Yuan Shu?

He thinks his life is too long!

Seeing this, Sun Ce went out again:”My lord is going to attack Shouchun, and I am willing to be the vanguard!””

Yuan Shu approved Sun Ce’s request:”Sun Ce, you lead your father’s old troops, and I will give you another 10,000 soldiers and horses. Let me see again whether the son of the Jiangdong Tiger is still a tiger!”

Sun Ce returned to the army and summoned Sun Jian’s old troops Han Dang, Huang Gai and Cheng Pu to discuss

“Three uncles, Xu Xiao, the governor of Xuzhou, suddenly came to Shouchun, and with 800 cavalry, they killed the deputy general Xun Zheng and the chief general Ji Ling.”

“I have requested 10,000 troops from Yuan Shu to act as vanguard. Cheng

Pu frowned and said:”Young Master, our original plan was to go to Lujiang to fight Lu Kang and take the opportunity to escape from Yuan Shu. But now we have to go to Shouchun. It’s too risky!”

Han Dang also said:”Since Xu Xiao can defeat Shouchun and kill Ji Ling with eight hundred cavalry, he must not be an incompetent person. Young Master is too impatient!” Sun

Ce laughed and said,”Uncle, if I don’t ask for the vanguard, how can Yuan Shu lend me troops?”

Cheng Pu understood:”What do you mean, young master, to attack Shouchun openly and attack Lujiang secretly?”

Sun Ce’s eyes flashed fiercely:”That’s right!” If Yuan Shu loses Ji Ling, he will definitely fight to the death with Xuzhou. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he first occupied Lujiang, and then became a rivalry with his mother-in-law. Even if Yuan Shu is angry, he can’t help me!”

It was a helpless move to surrender to Yuan Shu.

Sun Ce never thought of being loyal to Yuan Shu.

Sun Ce would always bear in mind the hatred of the Sishui River shutting off food!

In order to deceive others,

Sun Ce led the vanguard and marched in the direction of Shouchun first.

They reached the halfway point.

Sun Ce hosted a banquet for Governor Yuan Shu’s cronies, killed them in the tent, and took full control of these 10,000 troops. He then turned around and attacked Liyang directly.

The reason why he went to Liyang was because he had Sun Ce’s friendship with him in Liyang. Brother.
