Yuan Shu was indeed cautious and sent 5,000 people to cross the river from Tongyang, but he crossed the river from Penglize. If he had not covered the Yangtze River for fifty miles, Lu Bu might not have noticed it.

Before Yuan Shu was about to cross the river, Lu Bu had already led his men to move south from Runan, rushing to Shu County, Lujiang County, before the winter was completely in full swing.

In the past three days, I used the "Wind Dragon Insight" scroll to observe where Yuan Shu was hiding. I guess no one would have thought that he was hiding in the Penglize Water Village.

It is connected to Yuzhang County. As long as there are enough ship support, you can enter the Yuzhang County area immediately and attack the two counties of Chaisang and Pengze at the first time. With these two counties as bases, you can almost reach Nanchang in one breath.

In this way, Yuan Shu could use Yuzhang County as the base and make plans. He could conquer the four counties in Jingnan to the west, and he could point troops to Danyang to the east.

In fact, Lu Bu also admired Yuan Shu for being able to let go. Runan, Lujiang and Jiujiang said no, so they didn't want it. Of course, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was fighting alone in the Central Plains and was almost half surrounded by the Han Dynasty. If he didn't escape, he would definitely be a dead end.

The problem is that if you know, you can do it, then this enlightenment is worthy of admiration.

But you can't stop arresting you just because of admiration. There is no way. From the moment Yuan Shu became emperor, he would basically be in a state of dying with the Han Dynasty. If this phenomenon of becoming emperor is not treated severely, then any mountain villager can be called emperor in the future.

Therefore, since ancient times, all the crimes of rebellion have been unforgivable, and even the iron certificates of alchemy books are useless.

Now, Zhu Yuanzhang likes to play like that. Who would you like to kill? First, give me an iron coupon for the alchemy book, and then suddenly one day he rebelled, and then he was killed by the nine clans. So some people joked that this iron coupon for the alchemy book, the gold medal for avoiding death, was the death-induced talisman in the early Ming Dynasty.

"General, you can catch up, but others are on the water camp. If they have already boarded the boat, how can we chase after it?" Xu Shu Shao was about to reach Penglize, so he couldn't ask.

"Did Sun Ce reply?" Lu Bu was silent for a while, then asked.

"I have replied, saying that I will send someone to attack Yuan Shu." Xu Shu responded quickly. It is said that the enemy's enemy is a friend, but for Sun Ce, it is hard to say whether Yuan Shu is an enemy or the Han is an enemy.

However, in terms of the threat level, Sun Ce felt that Yuan Shu was more threatening, so he came forward to attack at the same time. Perhaps he could take this as an opportunity to surrender to the Han Dynasty. Anyway, Xu Shu had this consideration, but it was hard to say it out.

"Leave the part that crosses the river to solve, and we will do our best anyway." Lu Bu replied, "Besides, if it weren't for the great Han people in Jiangnan, I actually wouldn't have to work hard at all."

"The Propaganda Department needs to work hard in the future." Xu Shu nodded. He did what he did, but to let the people know why they did that, this requires the Jinyiwei and the Propaganda Department to work hard at the same time.

The people should understand that the Han Dynasty pursued Yuan Shu because Yuan Shu was arbitrarily proclaiming himself emperor, which was a behavior of rebellion, and the court had zero tolerance for this behavior. In addition, they could have sat there and watched Yuan Shu and Sun Ce fight to the death, but they still had to take the initiative to pursue Yuan Shu, with the purpose of not allowing the two to fight to endanger the local people.

It is natural to say whether the people in Jiangnan appreciate it or not, but for the older generation, they still have a high recognition of the Han Dynasty. At least without the rule of the Sun family for two or three generations, I guess the people there would not think they were people of Luo State.

"It will be winter in a few days. It will be a big deal if you want to fight at that time..." Lu Bu looked at the weather. The armor that could suffocate people in summer didn't feel very hot now, and even felt that he needed to add a layer of sweater.

If you continue, it is estimated that the snow will fall, and there is no way to fight that day. However, the advantage is also obvious, that is, the Yangtze River is in a dry season, otherwise Yuan Shu would not have chosen to go south at this time, and he probably had already started going south earlier.

At this time, it is very convenient to cross the river, which also means that you can pursue Yuan Shu to the greatest extent. If you can't catch up like this, it can only be said that this guy is really lucky.

"How to solve the problem of the 10,000 Yuan army in Tongyang?" Le Jin, who came as reinforcements, asked.

"Of course it is handed over to General Pingdong and the lieutenant of the rebellion (Zhang Liao)!" Lu Bu replied without thinking. Since Yuan Shu gave up Lujiang, Zhang Liao naturally had to take over here. Then, after Zhang Fei attacked Que Xuan and Zang Ba's troops, he would come one after another.

Those who can be used as bait must be the part of Yuan’s army who is unwilling to follow Yuan Shu to the south. This part probably won’t have any intention of fighting. Just a simple battle can almost be surrendered.

The army took about a day to arrive at Penglize. At this time, Yuan Shu had left about 3,000 people to form a formation in front, and he was in the water camp. You could vaguely see the ships that began sailing south. According to time, Yuan Shu might have gone south.

"General Zhennan has an order..." The two armies confronted each other, and Lu Bu sent soldiers to come forward and shouted, "As long as you surrender immediately now, everyone except Yuan Shu and his immediate relatives can be exempted from death!"

"No need to talk nonsense!" After saying that, a general had already come out of the enemy. "Mr. Yuan is here. If you have the ability, come and get it directly!"

Yuan Shu didn't leave? Lu Bu was a little surprised at this moment, and he thought that this guy could give up the Nanzhang of the three counties of the Central Plains without saying a word, so he would naturally escape as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, he was tough and brought three thousand people to intercept him. But who was leaving?

Or is it actually not Yuan Shu that is in front of you? It’s just that the other party said this on purpose so that he can attract his attention to this place?

"General, what should I do?" Le Jin stepped forward and asked.

"I will deal with these three thousand people. You go and chase the ships, don't waste time!" Lu Bu immediately ordered and then rode his horse to kill Yuan Shu.

"Han thief, let you see and see the enlightenment of Emperor Zhong!" Yuan Shu roared and led his army to rush towards Lu Bu. At this moment, his hands, head, and wrists were equipped with treasures, but that was all the same.

There are no powerful treasures, and no magical treasures, even if the army's attack and defense are slightly improved, it is useless. After the two scrolls, all the improvements become mirror flowers and water moons.

As expected, almost in the first encounter, the opponent was defeated. However, the opponent did not surrender at all, and the three thousand people fought to the last one.

At this point, Lu Bu even admired these three thousand people.

"Is it Yuan Shu?" It was just that Yuan Shu was beheaded, and Lu Bu sent Zhang Xun, who had been captured in Runan before, to identify him.

"It's indeed Your Majesty... Yuan Shu is right." Zhang Xun said sadly. He was the general of the Zhong family and was also considered a great minister. He still has a lot of feelings for Yuan Shu who has the grace of knowing him.
