The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 489 A surprise attack on Shouchun, beheading Yuan Shu's head and offering it to the saint
Chang Yuchun successfully captured Shangcai, and about ten thousand Yuan troops in the city surrendered. The ten thousand Yuan troops who fought against the Han army outside the city were not only those who protected Zhang Xun from escaping, but most of the others who did not surrender were also killed.

Chang Yuchun's army entered Shangcai, Yang Zaixing had already led the cavalry back, and Gan Ning led the cavalry to pursue Hou Junji, Hou Junji set up an ambush as expected, fortunately Gan Ning did not underestimate the enemy and led his troops back after Yuan's army collapsed Shang Cai.

So far, after half a month, the Han army successfully captured Shangcai, [-] Yuan soldiers, about [-] fled to Pingyu, [-] Yuan soldiers surrendered, and about [-] Yuan soldiers were killed.However, the casualties of the Han army were only a few thousand, which can be described as a great victory.

After the Han army captured Shangcai, Chang Yuchun in the city discussed the next move with Fang Xuanling and others.

Fang Xuanling thought: "Since His Majesty's main force is to let us contain Yuan Shu's main force, then we should take advantage of the victory to pursue, put pressure on Yuan Shu, and ask him to send a large army to Runan for support."

Chang Yuchun nodded and said: "What the military advisor said is true, then our army will rest for three days, and after three days, we will raise troops to surround Pingyu!"

Fang Xuanling suggested: "Our army is only [-]. Yuan Shu sent a large army to come, but it is not so easy to stop. Our army should build more trebuchets and ballistas to suppress Yuan Jun in the city."

"The military master is really resourceful, so he called the craftsmen in the city to make more trebuchets and ballistas!" Chang Yuchun praised.

But Pingyu, after Hou Junji fled to Pingyu, Zhang Xun also fled on the back foot, when Zhang Xun saw Hou Junji, his enemy was very jealous, and he said angrily: "Hou Junji, you are so brave, You were going to be trapped and you turned a blind eye and led your troops to flee to Pingyu?"

It was fine if Zhang Xun didn't say anything, but Hou Junji was even more furious when he talked about it, and cursed: "I have already persuaded you not to fight, don't fight, Chang Yuchun is full of tricks and there must be an ambush. You want to fight, and now you have lost the battle." Cai didn’t say anything, and lost tens of thousands of troops? Let me see how you explain to His Majesty? You don’t want to repent, but instead shift the responsibility to me? Originally, I built a fort along the river, and I only need to garrison it to be safe. In order to save your Han army, I was outflanked by the Han army cavalry, if I hadn’t retreated to Pingyu immediately, I’m afraid the [-] troops would be gone?”

"You..." Zhang Xun was silenced by the resistance, and he was secretly startled. If Hou Junji really joined Yuan Shu under him, he might end up as a general, so Zhang Xun retreated resentfully. , and rushed to Shouchun with a few confidants that night, hoping that the villain would file a complaint first and shift the responsibility to Zhang Xun.

When Hou Junji heard the news of Zhang Xun's departure, he shouted that it was not good and hurriedly wrote a letter, and sent cavalry to try to deliver it to Yuan Shu before Zhang Xun.The cavalry traveled more than 200 miles in one day. On the third day, Zhang Xun rushed back to Shouchun first.

Yuan Shu was in the middle of the day, and the guards came to report: "General Zhang Xun asks to see you."

Yuan Shu slowly got up from the crowd of women, and frowned, "Isn't Zhang Xun defending against the Han army on the front line in Runan? Why did he come back? Let him in!"

Yuan Shu waved away the women beside him and reclined on the dragon chair, but Zhang Xun walked in after a while, and asked Zhang Xun why he was so dressed up?The upper body is shirtless, and a few canes are tied behind the back. This is an apology from the thorn.Seeing Zhang Xun like this, Yuan Shu was shocked and said, "Zhang Xun, what are you doing? Why are you pleading guilty?"

Zhang Xun cried and said: "Your Majesty, the last general is guilty, and the last general is sorry for your majesty."

Seeing Zhang Xun crying like this, Yuan Shu waved his hands and said, "Get up first, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty, the last general lost Shangcai. The Han army wiped out [-] of the [-] army." Zhang Xun cried while crying.

Yuan Shu was furious immediately: "What are you eating? I just got the news that half a month after the Han army was dispatched, most of the [-] troops were wiped out. You... What do you think you are good for? Then Hou Junji is not along the river Set up a fortress, does the dialect say it is as stable as Mount Tai? How could it be defeated?"

"It's not good to be the last general. The Han army came to attack Shangcai. I went out of the city to fight Chang Yuchun. It was a draw for several days. In the end, I was about to kill him. Unexpectedly, the Han army rushed forward and surrounded me with soldiers and horses. There are only [-] troops in my city, so where is the opponent of the [-] Han army? I sent a message to Hou Junji to send troops to rescue, and it happened to defeat the Han army with internal and external cooperation!" Zhang Xun explained.

"It's a good thing, why did you lose?" Yuan Shu asked suspiciously.

"Then Hou Junji is timid and fearful. After several months of defeat by senior Chang Yuchun, he was afraid of the Han army and kept me from holding out. He led his troops to come, seeing that I was besieged by the Han army, he did not dare to come to support me, so he directly I went north and fled to Pingyu. I fought my best to break out of the siege, but it's a pity that tens of thousands of my soldiers have become the dead souls of the Han army, and I missed a great opportunity for nothing!" Zhang Xun said, beating his chest and stamping his feet.

Yuan Shu was furious when he heard this, he slapped the table and said: "Hou Junji, you really ruined my big business!"

"Hey, it's all bad for the last general. If the last general can't hold on, even if he can't defeat the Han army, he won't be defeated. If he knew it earlier, he would have listened to General Hou's advice and he would not be able to hold on." Zhang Xun sighed tone way.

"Hmph, you are my great general, and it is his fault that Hou Junji did not listen to the commander's orders!" Yuan Shu waved his hand, and then ordered to remove Hou Junji from his position and send him back to Shouchun for trial. .

At this moment, the guards reported again: "Your Majesty, General Hou has sent a messenger to see Your Majesty."

Zhang Xun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this letter must be written by Hou Junji to shirk responsibility and frame me!"

Yuan Shu's expression darkened and he said, "Submit the letter!"

An eunuch asked for a letter to be submitted, Yuan Shu opened the letter and saw that it was Hou Junji who described the battle in detail.Yuan Shu was caught in a dilemma. Who was right and who was wrong in this battle?Although Zhang Xun came ahead of time and the villain complained first, there was a good sentence in Hou Junji's letter, that is, the remaining 1 soldiers can testify for him, and Hou Junji said it with confidence!
Yuan Shu looked at Zhang Xun suspiciously, but didn't know what to do. The crime was secondary, but the key was that Runan had to send someone to guard it.Whether Zhang Xun should continue to guard Runan or Hou Junji should guard Runan, and one of them will fight and the other will defend Runan. If they stay together in Runan, there will still be troubles.

Yuan Shu had no choice but to invite Yang Hong, Yan Xiang and others to come and ask how to deal with this matter.

Yang Hong took a look at Hou Junji's letter, and after hearing Zhang Xun's words, he knew that the main crime in this battle was Zhang Xun. He cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, now is not the time to care about who is right and who is wrong. The most urgent thing is to resist the attack of the Han army. There are also two fronts in the north and south. Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian are attacking at the same time. Our army is in a dire situation."

Yuan Shu sneered: "What is Sun Wentai? He is just my soldier, and now he dares to devour the Lord?"

"That's what I said, but Sun Jian's Jiangdong soldiers and horses are well known for their bravery in battle. Our army must not underestimate the enemy."

Yuan Shu nodded and said: "I know this, so tell me how the war in Runan should be done?"

"Looking at the current situation, the Han army is pressing harder and harder in Runan, in order to hold back the main force of our army, so that Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian are invincible. It seems that the emperor has reached a consensus with these two people and secretly colluded. Therefore, the Runan side cannot let the Han army hold back the main force of our army, and should focus on defense." Yang Hong explained.

Yuan Shu glanced at Zhang Xun, who had a bitter face, and said, "Then Hou Junji's claim was correct in the battle of Runan. Should Hou Junji guard Runan?"

Yang Hong nodded and said: "The Han army is treacherous, and the main thing is to be cautious and defensive. After the lord defeats Sun Jian and Zhao Kuangyin, the Han army in Runan will be nothing to worry about, and the lord, the emperor, will be secure."

Yuan Shu nodded and said: "Then I will not pursue the responsibility for this battle. Let Hou Junji continue to garrison Runan, and he will be fully responsible for defending the Han army. Before sending [-] troops to Runan, let him be sure to defend Runan!"

Yuan Shu looked at Zhang Xun and said, "Now Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian are coming from two armies. As a general, which army are you willing to resist?"

Zhang Xun thought to himself: "Sun Jian is a fierce tiger in Jiangdong, and the Jiangdong soldiers under his command are like wolves and tigers. I'm afraid I'm not his opponent. Let's go and fight Zhao Kuangyin."

Thinking of this, Zhang Xun cupped his hands and said: "The last general is willing to lead the army to attack Zhao Kuangyin."

Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Then you will raise [-] troops to attack Zhao Kuangyin, and on Sun Jian's side, Liang Gang and Li Feng will lead [-] troops to attack!"

As a result, all of Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses were sent out, with 20 troops, only [-] remained in Shouchun, and many righteous men in Huainan rose up, and Yuan Shu's other soldiers and horses went to suppress the uprising.

Yuan Shu's capital is Shouchun, which belongs to Jiujiang County of Yangzhou and is adjacent to Xiapi County of Xuzhou.

However, Yuan Shu sent all his soldiers and horses out, and he was not afraid of Jiujiang Kongkong, because Tao Qian was a cowardly person, and he was determined not to send troops to attack him.

However, Yuan Shu didn't know that in the north of Xuzhou, there was another force eyeing him.

At the end of October, Yuan Jun's three-front war was at a stalemate. Hou Junji in Runan received Yuan Shu's support and set up defenses in the Pingyu and Xincai areas.Chang Yuchun commanded the Han army to encircle and not attack, but to build catapults, crossbow carts and other machines. Once Sun Jian and Zhao Kuangyin succeeded, the Yuan soldiers in Runan wanted to return to help, so they used these sharp weapons to attack and intercept.

But Qingzhou, since Yuan Shao defeated Qingzhou at the beginning of the year, he stationed troops in the plains, intending to attack after a rest, but he didn't want Yuan Shu to become emperor.At this time, Yuan Shao did not dare to attack Qingzhou at will. Although the Yuan family brothers would not deal with it, they were brothers. Yuan Shao was afraid that if he went too far, he would provoke Liu Bian's attack, so he led his troops back to Yecheng and watched Yuan Shu's success or failure. .

If Yuan Shu's emperor is stable, he will send troops to attack Qingzhou. If Yuan Shu's power collapses soon, he will be able to defend himself, thinking that Liu Bian has solved Yuan Shu, and he will definitely turn to deal with him.

When Liu Bian left Luoyang, he sent a letter to Qingzhou. This letter was the key to Yuan Shu's demise within a year.

After Kong Rong in Qingzhou received these letters, he quickly called Yu Yunwen and Chen Qingzhi to discuss.

But when he asked what the content of this letter was, Liu Bian said: "Yuan Shu's crime of claiming the emperor is unforgivable, and I must get rid of it as soon as possible, in the name of righteousness. Now my soldiers and horses are paranoid in Runan. The main force of Yuan's army, Sun Jian, Zhao Kuangyin sent troops in two directions, one from Lujiang and the other from Yuzhou. In this way, Fang Shouchun was empty after Yuan Hou. If a surprise soldier can be sent out at this time to attack Shouchun from Xuzhou, a big event will be settled!

As for this strange army, after thinking about it, I decided that the white-robed army should complete it. You can use Tao Qian in Xuzhou to make an excuse. It's no problem!

After the success of the excuse, the white-robed army trained hard, and when Yuan Shu's forces were defeated in the north and south next year, they would go all the way south from Xuzhou to Shouchun, behead Yuan Shu's head and present it to my case! "

Kong Rong handed the letter to Chen Qingzhi and Yu Yunwen for reading. Kong Rong smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty has created a problem for me. By virtue of Xuzhou's surprise attack on Shouchun, Yuan Shu's head was beheaded and dedicated before the holy case. ?"
