Three Kingdoms: The blind box draws Da Qiao at the beginning

Chapter 298 Exiting the Central Plains

Just when Yuan Shao was looking sad, a soldier's voice sounded outside: "Report, the envoy from the Marquis of Wu wants to see you!"

Only then did all the generals and counselors look outside the hall.

Yuan Shao took a deep breath.

He glanced at everyone.

Seeing that they had no intention of making any suggestions, Yuan Shao suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Let him in!"

The soldier responded and retreated.

After a while, I saw a young man walking in.

The young man has a slender figure and a majestic appearance. He walks with a majestic and high-spirited aura.

He kept a smile on his face.

In his hand, he also held a bamboo tube.

Following the soldiers' guidance, the young man lifted up his clothes, strode across the threshold, walked straight into the hall, saluted Yuan Shao and said: "The envoy of the Marquis of Wu, Lingling Jiang Wan, has met Mr. Yuan!"

Yuan Shao has a good impression of handsome people.

Seeing that Jiang Wan was extraordinary-looking and young, Yuan Shao's voice softened a lot and asked: "Why does the Marquis of Wu always send young people like you? Are you not afraid of being disrespectful? Are you not afraid of me?"

Jiang Wan smiled and said: "Wu Hou is a hero in the world, very comparable to others. He values ​​​​young heroes, and that is why we have the prosperity of Jiangdong. I am still young, is it not normal to be reused?"

Yuan Shao's anger rose instantly.

Ask nicely yourself.

This Jiang Wan actually belittled himself as not being a hero?
So Lu Yi's son values ​​young heroes, does that mean I don't value him?

He even talked about "Great Jiangdong"!
Jiangdong is Jiangdong, how can it be said that it is great?
Yuan Shaozheng wanted to fight back.

But when his eyes fell on the bamboo tube in Jiang Wan's hand, he still endured it.

Today’s situation is beyond our control.

Lu Yi is strong, but he is weak.

The other side is preparing to attack the city again.

There is no point in arguing with a young man at this time.

Yuan Shao held back his anger and continued to ask: "What did Marquis Wu ask you to do?"

Jiang Wan held up the bamboo tube with both hands and said, "The Marquis of Wu asked me to advise Mr. Yuan to withdraw from the Central Plains."

"Presumptuous!" Although Yuan Shao endured it again and again, he couldn't help but get angry at this time.

Quit the Central Plains?
What a joke!
I spent so much energy to finally get the Central Plains from the Emperor and Cao Cao, but Lu Yi, a mere child, actually asked me to withdraw?

Do you think I, Yuan Shao, really can’t lift the knife?
Still can't kill anyone?

All the generals and counselors lowered their heads again, not daring to take a breath.

Seeing that Yuan Shao was so angry, Jiang Wan was not afraid. He just raised his head and smiled and said: "Wu Hou said that Duke Yuan must withdraw before dark. Otherwise, after dark, the army will attack the city and not even a blade of grass will grow, and it will be in vain for Duke Yuan to suffer losses." A large number of soldiers."

After a pause, Jiang Wan said: "He is not worth it for Mr. Yuan."

"Mr. Yuan originally had many talents."

"But ever since he defeated Gongsun Zan and appointed the Yuzhou faction, he has made many mistakes."

"Tian Feng committed suicide in the dungeon."

"Jushou returned to seclusion."

"Xin Pi, Zhang He, Gao Lan and other outstanding figures all abandoned the dark side for the bright side and joined Wu Hou's tent."

"Wu Hou is worried that if Mr. Yuan does not save the lives of his soldiers, perhaps Mr. Yuan will eventually become a lonely man with no one to help him."

"correct--"

Jiang Wan looked at Yuan Shao.

Seeing the ferocious expression on Yuan Shao's face and the twitching veins on his forehead, Jiang Wan said seriously: "Yuan Gong Gong's younger brother, Yuan Gong Road, Wu Hou thought that he and Yuan Gong returned to the same destination by different routes."

"On his deathbed, Yuan Gongli wanted to take a sip of honey water but was unable to do so because of betrayal and separation from his relatives."

"Marquis Wu is really worried for Mr. Yuan, because he is afraid that Mr. Yuan will take the dead end of Yuan Highway."

"after all--"

Jiang Wan smiled again and said: "Marquis Wu has a concubine, Mrs. Yuan, who is Yuan Gongli's biological daughter."

"Yuan Gongli is also Yuan Gongqin's brother."

"From this point of view, Mr. Yuan is the father-in-law of Wu Hou."

"As a junior, Wu Hou cherishes Gong Yuan's body very much, as well as his family relationship with Gong Yuan."

"Mr. Yuan is young, so please don't ruin your health."

"It will be a pity that God will be jealous of talents by then."

"And Wu Hou will often blame himself and feel ashamed of Mrs. Yuan."

"Death!!!" Yuan Shaocao slammed the tea cup on the desk in front of Jiang Wan, then pulled out the sword from his waist and rushed towards Jiang Wan!
Seeing this, Xun Chen quickly raised his head and rushed over to stop him.

Although Jiang Wan's words are really ugly.

However, if he kills the Jiangdong envoy because of these words, it will only make the world worse. Mr. Yuan is narrow-minded and too small-minded.

Not to mention, since ancient times, the two armies have been fighting without killing the envoys.

As the fourth and third prince, Mr. Yuan should abide by these basic etiquette.

But before he could rush over, Yuan Shao's footsteps suddenly froze in place.

The next moment, he spurted out a large mouthful of blood.

The sword pointed tremblingly at Jiang Wan. Yuan Shao's eyes were all bloodshot, his mouth was trembling slightly, and he said in a vague and trembling voice: "Lu, Lu Yi, little, little boy, you are bullying me too, too -"

Before Yuan Shao finished speaking, his eyes darkened and he fell straight down.

Jiang Wan hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Yuan Shao, and sighed: "Mr. Yuan, the Marquis of Wu just asked you to take care of yourself, you—"

Xun Chen quickly stepped forward and took Yuan Shao from Jiang Wan's arms.

Seeing the pained look on Jiang Wan's face, Xun Chen couldn't suppress the anger on his face, and said excitedly: "Let me tell you, Marquis Wu, that the two armies are at war, and these little tricks are of no use!"

"The day when Mr. Yuan recovers will be the day when the horse rides east of the Yangtze River!"

"please!"

All the generals and counselors also looked at Jiang Wan angrily, wishing to chop Jiang Wan into pieces on the spot.

Xun Chen then roared outside: "Ask the medical workers over quickly!"

Jiang Wan exited the hall and left Xu Du.

Xin Ping shed tears, looked at Xun Chen and said, "What should we do now? Duke Ming has fainted now, so how should we deal with the enemy? Should we hold on to the city and live and die with it, or should we withdraw from here and return to Hebei?" All the generals and counselors looked at Xun Chen.

Xun Chen glanced at everyone.

Before, everyone looked excited and high-spirited.

Now, all the generals have dim eyes and fearful expressions on their faces.

The counselors all looked confused.

How to fight this?
Looking down at Yuan Shao who had fainted in his arms, Xun Chen choked up and said, "How can we fight?"

"Now the soldiers and horses from all walks of life have not gathered yet, and they have been surrounded by Jiangdong. If it continues, the city will be destroyed and people will die."

"Although our Hebei province failed this time, the foundation is still there and the officials are still there."

"Evacuate Xudu first."

"Chunyu Qiong!"

Chunyu Qiong responded and walked out quickly.

Xun Chen looked at Chunyu Qiong and said: "Now organize your troops and horses immediately and withdraw from Xudu. You lead [-] archers and infantry to the rear. After we return to Yecheng, you lead the army to garrison in Guandu and retreat slowly to prevent the pursuit of troops from Jiangdong. .”

"The eldest son and the second son are still leading an army in Puyang to fight against the armies of Xuzhou and Xiaopei."

"You contact them and make them switch from offense to defense."

"Let me tell you two young masters that although Xu Du has failed now, the fundamentals have not been damaged. Be careful of arrogance and impetuosity. You will try to go south again in the future."

Chunyu Qiong cupped her fists and said, "Here!"

After speaking, he strode away.

At this time, the medical worker also trotted in from outside and checked Yuan Shao's injury.

Everyone looked at the medical worker nervously.

The medical worker looked at Xun Chen and said, "Don't worry, military advisor, my lord is just angry and has hurt his spleen and stomach. He only needs some time to rest and recover."

Xun Chen and everyone were relieved.

Looking at the others, Xun Chen said: "We are all preparing to evacuate Xudu immediately."

Afterwards, Xun Chen summoned a strong guard from outside the hall and carried Yuan Shao into the chariot.

Xun Chen and the medical workers also followed in the chariot.

Everyone followed the chariot and slowly retreated from the north gate of Xudu City.

The soldiers on the city wall also slowly retreated.

Jiang Wan just came out from the south gate of Xudu City.

Seeing the movement on the city wall, Jiang Wan laughed proudly.

Jiangdong already occupies most of the world!
At this time, Lu Yi was in the commander's tent discussing every step of tonight's attack with generals such as Chen Gong, Taishi Ci, Huang Zhong, Chen Wu, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others.

Liu Bei and Wei Jing stood aside and watched this scene quietly.

When Liu Bei saw Lu Yi scolding Fang Qiu, his mind returned to the scene when the two first met.

A touch of sourness and loneliness appeared on his face.

The former Sima of the Lujiang Department who knew nothing about military affairs has become a towering tree that he looks up to.

A soldier's voice sounded outside: "Report, there is movement in the direction of Xudu!"

Lu Yi and the generals looked outside the commander's tent and said, "Come in!"

The soldier walked in quickly, saluted Lu Yi and said, "The defenders on the walls of Xudu are quickly withdrawing!"

Lu Yi: "."

Did Jiang Wan succeed in persuading him?
Lu Yi led the generals out of the commander's tent and rushed outside.

Lu Yi and Chen Gong both took out a monocular telescope from their sleeves and looked at the Xudu city wall.

Chen Gong said excitedly: "It seems to be true! They really withdrew their troops!"

Lu Yi turned around and said to Tai Shici: "Ziyi, let the siege engines go over immediately, break open the city gate, and go into the city to check to see if it's a trick to lure the enemy or is it really an evacuation?"

Taishi Ci responded loudly and ran towards the military camp behind.

After a while, hundreds of soldiers carried ladders and surrounded the siege vehicles towards the south gate of Xudu City.

As the soldiers put the ladders on the moat, the siege engines slowly crossed the moat.

In the military camp, everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the city gate.

The siege engine went straight to the south gate of the city.

As hundreds of soldiers shouted "Hey!", the siege vehicle hit the city gate heavily.

A dull crashing sound echoed over the entire Xudu sky.

In Xudu City, countless people hid in their homes, bolted their wooden doors, and listened to the crash in horror.

When the impact sounded, the city gate was knocked open.

Hundreds of soldiers roared and rushed in.

Jiang Wan also stopped and looked expectantly into the city gate.

Hundreds of soldiers rushed into the city for a while before someone ran up the city wall, pulled out the "Yuan" flag stuck on the city wall, and threw it down.

Outside Xudu City, at the Jiangdong army camp, excited roars instantly shot up into the sky!

Huang Zhong put his hands on his hips and laughed wildly.

Lu Yi couldn't help but smile.

Xudu was captured without spending a single soldier!

Jiangdong has passed through this most dangerous period!
Lu Yi walked towards Xu Du first and said: "Soldiers, follow me into the city!"

The entire Jiangdong camp once again roared with excitement.

Chen Gong signaled Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and other generals to follow him, while he rushed to the military camp and arranged for the generals to garrison the military camp.

Xudu is ten miles north of the city.

Yuan Shao's army surrounded the chariots and slowly retreated towards the north.

In the chariot, Yuan Shao woke up from fainting.

Hearing the deafening roar in the distance, Yuan Shao looked at Xun Chen beside him and said feebly: "Youruo, what is this sound? Where are we going?"

Youruo, the word of Xun Chen.

Xun Chen suppressed his grief and lied to comfort Yuan Shao: "Ming Gong, this should be our soldiers fighting against Jiangdong's siege. Ming Gong, we will withdraw to Yecheng first. When you recover, Ming Gong, we will reorganize our troops and fight again." . Leave other matters to the soldiers!"
