Since Yuan Shu left Luoyang that year, he has been running around. He thought about driving Cao Cao away and occupying Yanzhou, but he was beaten by Cao Cao and couldn't find his way. He thought about occupying Yangzhou, but his heart was higher than the sky and his destiny was thinner than paper. It was a waste of time.
It took the strength of nine bulls and two tigers to occupy Jiujiang County.
Fortunately, Yuan Shu still has a foothold and will not be displaced.
After Yuan Shu established himself in Shouchun, he robbed a mansion and annexed several neighboring houses, opened them all, and carefully repaired and decorated the house. The house was luxurious and magnificent, with pavilions, pavilions, ponds and flowing water, and everything was complete.
There are more than a hundred maids in the house.
In addition, there are many singers.
Yuan Shu's life in Shouchun was as extravagant as when he was a young master in the Yuan family in the past. He liked to enjoy himself. He ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, drank nectar and jade liquid, wore silk and satin, and slept with stunning women. He always
Don't be harsh on yourself.
In the backyard, the sound of the piano was faint, echoing in the yard like gurgling water.
Yuan Shu drank Feixian wine and watched the singing girls dancing.
In late April, Jiujiang County was getting hotter and hotter. The clothes on the singer's body were very thin and transparent, revealing her voluptuous and slender figure and fair and jade-like skin.
Yuan Shu saw it in his eyes and felt extremely hot in his heart.
When Yuan Shu was already thinking about it and was about to take action, a soldier came in and reported: "General, Lord Yan is asking for an audience."
"please!"
Yuan Shu gave an order.
The soldiers went to deliver the order, and after a while, Yuan Shu's chief secretary, Yan Xiang, entered. His hair and beard were already gray, and his back was a little stooped. He entered the courtyard and saw Yuan Shu drinking wine and admiring the singer, and frowned.
"Lord!"
Yan Xiang bowed his hands.
Yuan Shu smiled and said: "Gong Yan, Feixian wine is really delicious. How about you have a drink too?"
Yan Xiang looked serious and said solemnly: "My lord, sex is a bone scraper, wine is a medicine for intestinal piercing. Drinking and sex will destroy the heroic spirit in my lord."
Yuan Shu waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's not as serious as you said. I just drank some wine and enjoyed singing and dancing to kill the boring time. I am not addicted or decadent.
You worry too much."
Yan Xiang wanted to persuade him again, but he thought of business and said directly: "My Lord, I just received news from Lujiang County. Yuan Yin went to beg for food, but Lu Kang refused. Moreover, Lu Kang also killed
Yuan Yin, behead Yuan Yin and hang his head outside the north gate for public display."
boom!!
Yuan Shu's mind felt as if it was going to explode.
The whole person was extremely angry.
With red eyes, he flicked his sleeves, overturned the wine glass in front of him on the ground, stood up, and roared: "How dare you, an old man like Lu Kang, kill my brother? He, Lu Kang, is about to die. He doesn't want his life."
"Yuan Shao, the bastard who was born as a concubine, looked down upon me. Cao Cao, the eunuch, looked down upon me even more. Now Lu Kang, a mere man, dares to humiliate me."
"If I don't take revenge for this, I swear I won't be a human being."
Yuan Shu's eyes were cold and furious, and he ordered: "Yan Xiang, please give me an order immediately to mobilize all the troops to attack Lujiang County and kill Lu Kang."
Yan Xiang looked at Yuan Shu, who was furious and roaring, with a calm expression, and admonished him: "My lord, Lu Kang's refusal to give food is part of our plan. Our plan is to use Sun Ce and let him take Sun Jian's old man with him.
My men are going to attack Lujiang County."
"After all, Lu Kang is a famous figure in the country. If you kill Lu Kang, you will be targeted by countless people."
"It is most appropriate to let Sun Ce take his men to kill someone with a borrowed knife. Moreover, if Sun Ce wants to attack Lujiang County, it can also weaken the strength of Sun Jian's old men, so that they will not lose their tail."
"If you personally lead the troops, all plans will change."
"It is indeed an accident that Yuan Yin was killed. I never expected that a man as fastidious as Lu Kang would kill the lord's envoy. It's just that things have already happened, and anger will not help. We cannot change our relationship because of Yuan Yin's death.
plan."
Yan Xiang bowed and bowed, and said: "It concerns my lord's great cause. Please think twice, lord, and put the overall situation first."
Yuan Shu paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, anger still on his face.
Yuan Shu is in Jiujiang County. Although he bears the name of the Yuan family, in fact, his influence is much worse than that of Yuan Shao.
Many people would rather go to Yuan Shao than go to him.
Obviously he is the legitimate son, but Yuan Shao, the son of a concubine, turned out to be the heir of the Yuan family. Even though Yuan Shao was adopted to his second uncle Yuan Cheng early, and the son of a concubine became the legitimate son of the second wife, but under Yuan Shu
In his eyes, Yuan Shao was still the son of a concubine.
Because of this, Yuan Shu cherished every member of the Yuan family around him. When Yuan Shao was at the height of his power, Yuan Yin was willing to follow him, and she was his staunch confidant.
Now, he was actually killed.
Yuan Shu thought about Yuan Yin's hatred for a long time, and finally said: "Yuan Yin's revenge must be avenged."
Yan Xiang said: "Of course I must take revenge."
Yuan Shu's anger calmed down a little and he ordered: "Come, please inform Sun Ce to discuss the matter."
"My lord is wise!"
Yan Xiang breathed a sigh of relief after seeing it.
As long as Yuan Shu did not attack Lujiang himself and let Sun Ce resist the attack, Sun Ce would lose the reputation of persecuting Lu Kang. Lu Kang was a model scholar in Jiangdong, but he died in the hands of Sun Ce. It was Sun Ce who was hated by the scholars in Jiangdong.
.
When the time comes, Yuan Shu will come out to beat Sun Ce again, and he will be able to win people's hearts.
Yuan Shu took Yan Xiang to the hall. Not long after, Sun Ce entered, cupped his fists and said, "Junior Sun Ce, pay your respects to the general."
Yuan Shu nodded and said sternly: "My nephew, I invite you here this time to discuss the matter of dealing with Lujiang County. I arranged for Yuan Yin to go to Lujiang County to borrow food. Instead of borrowing food, Lu Kang killed Yuan Yin.
.”
"Lu Kang is tyrannical and bullies others too much. I will make Lu Kang pay the price."
"My dear nephew, you are both civil and military, and I have always relied on you. This time, as long as you take over Lujiang County, I will petition the court to let you serve as the prefect of Lujiang. What do you think?"
When Sun Ce heard this, he immediately became excited.
He, Cheng Zi, and Huang Bing returned to Yuan Shu's command. Sun Ce persuaded Yuan Shu to attack Lujiang County, but Yuan Shu never agreed.
Now, I finally agree.
This is his chance.
Sun Ce knew Yuan Shu's plan to let him attack Lu Kang, but after he captured Lujiang County, it would be impossible for Yuan Shu to control him.
Sun Ce did not reveal what he was thinking.
He still looked respectful and said quickly: "To attack Lujiang County, we must have enough troops and food."
Yuan Shu looked relaxed and said: "Your military strength is not a problem. Your father's former generals Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others are all in my army. I will leave all their troops to you. In addition,
I will arrange for people to deliver the necessary provisions and equipment to you."
Sun Ce was in high spirits, clasping his fists and saying: "Please rest assured, general, I will definitely seize Lujiang County and avenge Yuan Yin."
A smile appeared on Yuan Shu's lips, and he waved his hand and said, "I'm waiting for your good news. All the heads of Lu Kang's family have been sent to me neatly."
"As you command!"
Sun Ce also smiled in his heart.
He saluted again, returned to the military camp, and immediately summoned Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang to discuss matters.
Sun Ce looked excited and said quickly: "Yuan Shu has just summoned me. He has agreed to send troops to attack Lujiang County and promised to supply us with food, grass and equipment. Before, we had no chance to break away from Yuan Shu, but now the opportunity has come."
Cheng Pu was over forty years old. Although he was also a warrior, he had a strategy. He said: "Young Master, the strategy we agreed on before was to break away from Yuan Shu by attacking Lujiang. Although the plan was achieved, I have to remind you that I have to attack Lujiang.
, Lu Kang, the leader of the Jiangdong scholars, is bound to cause waves and will be targeted by countless scholars, have you thought clearly?"
Lu Xuan's appearance instantly appeared in Sun Ce's mind.
In Daguan Tower, Lu Xuan humiliated him.
Sun Ce ambushed Lu Xuan on his way to Qiao's house and wanted to kill Lu Xuan, but Lu Xuan plotted against him and cut off his relationship with Zhou Yu. At Zhuiyue Tower, he was humiliated by Lu Xuan again, and then because of Lu Xuan and Zhou Yu
Completely turned away.
He was tricked by Lu Xuan many times.
This time, he wants revenge.
Sun Ce looked determined and gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Cheng, my father was also a warrior and was despised by countless scholars. Many scholars looked down on my father. But with his father's rise, who in Jiangdong dares to despise his father?"
"In this world, people are not convinced by virtue. Whoever has a big fist will be justified."
"Anyone who disobeys me will be killed."
"The scholars in Jiangdong are all a bunch of weaklings. I am strong, and they dare not oppose me, but will support me. Therefore, as long as we capture Lujiang, even if we kill Lu Kang and destroy the Lu family, we will not be afraid of any scholars.
people."
Sun Ce's eyes were fierce and he said: "Even if the scholars hate me, they still have to bow before me. Therefore, kill them if they need to. This time, we will break Lujiang County and completely break away from Yuan Shu's shackles."
Cheng Pu nodded and said: "Young Master has already made a decision, so I won't say more about my humble position."
Sun Ce ordered: "Get ready to go."
His eyes were filled with anticipation, and he couldn't wait to lead his army to Lujiang County and to the outside of Shu County. He wanted to see Lu Xuan's panicked look and appreciate Lu Xuan's embarrassed look as he begged for mercy.
