Four hundred and ninetieth chapters on the edge of Huai River

Li Feng then reacted and shouted anxiously, "Your Majesty, when is it now? You are still playing with the jade seal here."

Yuan Shu looked at him without looking at Li Feng, and his whole body was on the jade seal, and he said indifferently, "So what's wrong? If you have nothing to do, don't bother me. By the way, Ji Ling has any news coming."

Li Feng looked at the jade seal with resentment, as if he had a deep hatred. At this moment, he wanted to go forward directly and smash the great disaster of the jade seal, which was completely destroyed.

When Sun Ce took out the jade seal and wanted to exchange three thousand soldiers with Yuan Shu, there were many of their Yuan Shu's men who did not agree with him. Yuan Shu took the jade seal into their pocket. In their opinion, this jade seal was really useless except for causing a murder.

Besides, Sun Ce and Sun Jian’s old subordinates are definitely of great use. Over the years, Sun Ce has made great contributions to his foreign wars.

In this way, a little overlord from Jiangdong did not leave him by his side but let them leave. Wouldn't that let the tiger return to the mountain?

But helpless, when Yuan Shu saw the imperial seal, his eyes kept lit up. No matter what they said, Yuan Shu must have put the seal in his bag. For this reason, he killed several subordinates who were frank and advised, so no one dared to speak.

Originally, Yuan Shu accepted the jade seal without any matter. As long as he kept it secretly and kept it himself, it would be fine. But what they never expected was that Yuan Shu, who had a huge ambition, decided to directly proclaim himself emperor. No one could persuade him, even his most confidant Ji Ling.

What's even more terrifying is that since Yuan Shu became emperor, his whole body has changed. Although Yuan Shu had no talent, at least he was not considered stupid.

But since he obtained the jade seal, he has been hiding in the deep palace, doing his dream of being an emperor, and no longer caring about everything outside the world, whether it is internal affairs, making the entire Yangzhou feel miserable and full of complaints.

And since then, he has been constantly exploiting the people and expanding his army. Some time ago, he ignored everyone's opposition and ambitions prompted him to order Ji Ling to be the general, sending 200,000 troops and attacking Xuzhou in seven directions.

"Your Majesty, General Ji Ling has not heard any news yet, but the court has issued a proclamation to fight against the thieves, ordering all the princes in the world to come and attack you!" Li Feng shouted loudly with a bitter face.

Although Li Feng had long expected that as long as he, Yuan Shu, would be the beginning of his demise, he would feel uncomfortable now that he really got this news.

"What!" Yuan Shu put down the jade seal in his hand. His face suddenly became dark, and he said angrily, "I dare anyone disrespect me. Who dares to attack me!"

Li Feng felt a heartbreaking pain in his heart when he looked at Yuan Shu. He never expected that Yuan Shu had become so crazy. At this time, he was still pretending to be an emperor.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao in Yanzhou has sent 200,000 troops, and Lu Bu from Yuzhou has also sent 100,000 troops to us. As for the other princes, there is no news yet!" Li Feng said respectfully.

"Oh, it turns out that Cao Aman and the slave of the three surnames, Lu Bu. They are all lowly people, so they are not opponents of me, Yuan Shu." Yuan Shu said indifferently. After Yuan Shu held the fourth generation of the Three Dukes, he originally looked down on Lu Bu and Cao Cao, not to mention that he is now the emperor of Zhongguo.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao and Lu Bu are not easy people, and they have an army of 300,000 in total, so you can't be underestimated." Li Feng was anxious when he saw Yuan Shu's despise so much, and quickly persuaded him with great sincerity.

Did Li Feng know Cao Cao's ability? He had no power to fight back before. As for Lu Bu, there was no need to mention Lu Bu. In the battle of Hulao Pass, no one knew the name of the world's No. marquis Wenhou Lu Bu Lu Fengxian. If these two people cooperated, how could Yuan Shu resist?

Yuan Shu glanced at Li Feng disdainfully and said indifferently, "Okay, don't say much, please don't attack Xuzhou, and lead the army back. You can go on for me too. Don't quarrel with me again if you have nothing to do."

"His Majesty……!"

"Yeah!" Li Feng wanted to say something, but Yuan Shu glared back directly. The latter did not dare to say anything anymore, so he could only shake his head helplessly and retreat. Only Yuan Shu was left playing with the jade seal like a man who was crazy.

There is a Huai River between Yangzhou and Yuzhou. At this moment, Ji Ling’s 200,000 army was facing Lu Bu’s 100,000 army across the river.

When Cao Cao learned that Ji Ling was attacking Xuzhou, he was planning to borrow Xuzhou and attack Ji Ling directly. In this way, he could pass through Xuzhou again and gain a lot of benefits. Then he could destroy Yuan Shu's number one general Ji Ling first. In this way, it would be much more convenient to attack Shouchun.

But when Cao Cao never expected that, at this moment, Ji Ling actually withdrew his troops. Cao Cao wanted to stop him, but that was impossible. In desperation, Cao Cao could only continue to use the passage and head towards Shouchun.

As for the Tao Shang's son in Xuzhou, he had been attacked by Cao Cao once before. If he hadn't been rich in Xuzhou, he would have been seriously injured after the last disaster.

And this time I heard that Cao Cao was going to pass by him, and his pottery agreed without thinking. How dare you not agree? Cao Cao was passing by under the banner of fighting against thieves. If his pottery disagreed, he would probably end up as a partner of Yuan Shu, and that would be worth it. Besides, even if he really didn't allow him, would Cao Cao have no choice? At worst, he could fight Xuzhou again. Is Tao Shang still able to deal with it?

And this time, Cao Cao came to deal with Ji Ling, which was equivalent to helping them in Xuzhou. He, the Tao Shang, has been exhausted from facing Ji Ling's attack for a while. Now that the savior is coming, even if he is unwilling to give up, he will agree.

As for the imperial court's proclamation to fight against the thieves, he naturally received it, but it was absolutely unrealistic to ask him to send troops. Xuzhou is now very empty, and in desperation he could only agree to provide food and grass for Cao Cao's army, which was considered to be a part of it. Anyway, there was nothing else in Xuzhou, that was enough food and grass.

Cao Cao was so happy about this. He had no intention of doing anything to do in Xuzhou pottery merchants. And even if there was no benefit, he would have to deal with Yuan Shu. But what he had never thought of was that the deterrence he had left in Xuzhou before was so great. He had not done anything yet, and the pottery merchants were willing to give food and grass to his army. That was a great thing.

Therefore, after Cao Cao took over the food and grass from the pottery merchant, he did not make things difficult for him anymore, but continued to go towards Shouchun with his troops.

As for Lu Bu, Yuzhou was originally bordered by Yangzhou. Moreover, his Dongjun of Lu Bu was not far from Yuan Shu's Shouchun gathering. According to Lu Bu's meaning, there was no need to talk so much nonsense, just take the troops and horses to kill Shouchun. In this way, he could not only own Yuzhou, but also Yangzhou. At that time, he would be the second strongest prince now except Liu Yao.

But as soon as Lu Bu's thought came out, he was defeated by Chen Gong. When he received the news that Cao Cao had already sent troops, he had already made up his mind to unite with him, Cao Cao.

After all, Yuan Shu is not weak. If only his 100,000 troops, even if he can really win, he will definitely suffer heavy losses. Even if he Lu Bu can really win Yangzhou, he will not have much strength to defend it. That would be a loss, and if he is not good, he will be profitable by others.

But it would be different to pull him into Cao Cao. In his eyes of Chen Gong, the biggest opponent in the south is undoubtedly Cao Cao. Therefore, even if you have to consume your strength, you should pull him into Cao Cao. In this way, although after taking Yangzhou, you may have to split Yangzhou with Cao Cao, this is undoubtedly the best ending.

After all, Liu Yao has occupied the entire north now. And now he has come up with such an open plot to consume the strength of their various princes.

If they still fight each other around now, the biggest possibility in the future is that they will be eaten by him, Liu Yao, one by one. This is not what Chen Gong wants to see.

Therefore, the best situation now is to be able to cooperate with him, Cao Cao, and Yangzhou is the bridge for their cooperation. If the forces of Lu Bu and Cao Cao can unite, then Liu Yao will be somewhat confident in the future.

When Lu Bu heard that Chen Gong planned to form an alliance with Cao Cao, unite to attack Yuan Shu, and possible to unite to fight against Liu Yao in the future, he was immediately angry.

There was a lot of hatred between him, Lu Bu and Cao Cao. It was a helpless move to join Cao Cao back then, but now his strength is getting stronger. He naturally doesn't want to let him form an alliance with Cao Cao.

Isn't this the case with Chen Gong? Although Chen Gong and Cao Cao are not very jealous of him, they are also very disliked by him. But now they are helpless, in order to protect themselves, this alliance is undoubtedly the best way.
