"Let's wait and see what happens. If Lu Bu breaks the city and the general goes back, then... Lu Bu breaks the city, Shen Pei and the others will die. If the general returns, he will drive away the wolves, which is an act of justice. This can be done,"

Xin commented: "If Lü Bu has not defeated the city, and the lord leads his troops to retreat and drive him away, the general will not be too late to return. Although there is no success, there is no fault. If the lord does not retreat back to Hebei, there will be a large army to drive out Lü Bu.

You can return at that time, and you will have merit. In this way, you can advance and retreat, and you can advance and retreat with the power to protect yourself. But it is too risky to return to Hebei now. Besides, if the general returns and loses this place, he will be defeated in the future without any merit.

Come back, this land has been taken over by thieves, why did the general take possession of it?!"

These words deeply touched Yuan Tan's heart, so he said: "It's just to test the trust of the match. If you don't listen, I'm afraid he will say something else and blame me for not saving him!"

Xin commented: "He attacked the young master and did not save him. The young master is only slightly injured. If he goes away, it will be a treasonous mistake and a serious crime. The young master will think about it!"

Yuan Tan said: "Yes!"

In this case, since Bento didn’t receive this letter, he didn’t help but pretended to be dead!

When really asked about his crime, he only said that he had done all he could to resist the enemy, and that he had no idea of ​​the danger in Jizhou. When he knew about it, he had already missed the best opportunity to rescue him. When he really couldn't survive, he would pretend to rescue him.

It’s not difficult to make a play.

That time is the best time!

Yuan Tan understood the advantages and disadvantages of this and said: "I regret that Jizhou may be trampled by jackals."

He felt so helpless that a good piece of meat was swallowed up in one gulp by a jackal who didn’t know how to taste it carefully. However, he still had to take back what he deserved!

Yuan Tan did not trust Yuan Shao, because Yuan Shao favored his younger son. As the eldest son, he suffered a lot of hardships and blows. The etiquette between father and son was not lost, but family affection and trust had long since disappeared.

Yuan Tan actually has talents, and he is not completely short-sighted. However, he can only do this.

Who told him that he was not so lucky to meet a scumbag father!

Let's just say that a scumbag father is a scumbag. There is nothing wrong with pampering women, but he is really a weird one who prefers the youngest son to the point of threatening the status of the eldest son!

You deserve to be so turbulent and distrustful.

Maybe the Yuan family has already shown signs of decline since the dispute between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Discord between brothers is the beginning of defeat!

In fact, Yuan Tan understood everything, but he was very helpless and could only act in a short-sighted way.

Thinking about it, he was also very upset.

The source of brotherly discord actually lies with Yuan Shao. Ever since he did not suppress his younger son's power, but allowed it to grow, and even added fuel to the flames, it has been difficult to turn back!

Xin Ping was also worried about his family. He didn't even know whether to worry about the enemies inside the city or the enemies outside the city. He just couldn't express his sorrow. Seeing Yuan Tan sighing, Xin Ping advised: "... Master, please be patient, and the matter will be settled."

Only then can you show off your talents!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until then," Yuan Tan was very worried and said, "My father is on the front line. He has no worries at all. He is only arrogant. I'm afraid..." he will be defeated.

Because Yuan Tan has been living under pressure, he is very sober, but sometimes he has to be short-sighted and not soft when fighting, which makes him appear mediocre. But Yuan Shao is different. He has completely ignored and even condoned the people below him.

!

Yuan Tan rubbed his temples and said, "Cao's thief is cunning and scheming, and Lu Bu's army is fierce. If the two of them work together..."

I don’t even dare to think deeply about it.

It's a pity that my father doesn't care about it.

They brothers can only take care of themselves.

Yuan Tan couldn't solve this problem, so he stopped thinking about it and just said: "...Mr., you think Yuan Shang might come back safely?!"

"It may not be possible..." Xin commented: "Jizhou will definitely send a letter to Yuan Xi to rescue him. However, if Yuan Shang is in danger, he will definitely send a letter asking for help. And Yuan Xi can only choose to save one, but he will lose one...

”

Yuan Tan narrowed his eyes slightly and walked back and forth uneasily. He wished that Yuan Shang would die and not come back. Things would be simpler now and people would be able to gather together easily.

But he couldn't take any action. He could silently curse Yuan Shang to die early and be reborn, but he could never rob or kill him, nor could he persuade Yuan Xi to turn to him or exclude Yuan Shang. All he could do was sit back and watch.

Just like Yuan Shao didn't save Yuan Shu.

"No matter what, there is a certain number and there will be a result. Young Master should conserve his strength and wait for the situation to develop!" Xin commented: "If things go smoothly, Young Master's great opportunity will come. If not, the front line will be defeated and the rear will be defeated.

You are wrong. You should use this as a basis to absorb the generals and talents of the Yuan family and defend this place so that you can control the enemy!"

It means to make progress if you can, but if you want to lose, you must also preserve your strength and only keep your own will.

Yuan Tan withdrew everyone and asked Xin: "If Yuan Shang dies, will my father... choose Tan as his heir in a critical situation?!"

At this time, do you still have illusions about Yuan Shao?! Hey...

Xin Ping sighed and couldn't put it bluntly, so he could only say: "...If the matter is critical, even if he wants to establish an heir, he will just take over the mess instead of giving him a heavy responsibility. Can the young master really win people's hearts? What's the burden on him?

It's better to stay single than to be serious. The people around the lord may not be willing to obey him."

The transfer of power is not about saying in one sentence to whom will I hand over the burden and to whom will I hand over the power, and the people below will definitely listen.

If Yuan Shang dies and Yuan Shao is defeated, the most feared situation will happen, and it will only fall into pieces. Once it falls into pieces, Yuan Tan wants to heal the fragments, which is tantamount to ascending to heaven.

In this case, it is better to streamline our strength and save ourselves.

Yuan Tan took a breath and said: "... Tan is clear!"

"We must not lose our territory and cities. If we lose them, I'm afraid people will have no land to survive, which is the way to perish!" Xin commented.

Yuan Tanshen thought it was true. From this, he saw that Xin was actually unwilling to save him!

At this time, the news of the Xin family's annihilation has not yet arrived, and Yuan Shao's letter has not arrived either.

However, Jizhou's letter for help also arrived in the hands of Yuan Xi, as did Jushou, who fled to Yuan Xi on his own. If he hadn't met the general who Yuan Xi ordered to patrol outside, his arrival might have been delayed.

Yuan Xi was shocked when he saw that it was Jushu. After rescuing him, he asked: "Didn't you, sir, follow the orders of your father and brother to set up a battle in Jizhou?! How could you come here?!"

"Shenpei hunted and killed dissidents wantonly, so he had to flee!" Jushu said: "Seeing that he was so arbitrary, he dispersed his family wealth and fled here at night, hoping that the second son would go to save Jizhou!"

Seeing that he was silent, Jushu said: "Even if there is no order from the lord, the young master still needs to make the decision to send troops immediately! The situation in Jizhou is extremely dangerous! Zhao Yun invaded the country, and the judge made a stupid move. He actually asked the third young master to go to destroy and lead the troops.

We rushed out, Jizhou is now empty, I'm afraid something will happen! Lu Bu is eyeing the tiger, how can he not enter Jizhou... Zhao Yun's invasion may be a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, please don't be suspicious, please rush to Jizhou to save him!"<

/p>

Yuan Xi sighed: "I'm silent. It's not that I don't want to save him, but I'm afraid he doesn't know. I just received the letter today and Lu Bu has already arrived at the city! Now Jizhou City is surrounded, and there are also Cheng Yu, Ma Teng, and Hanoi Zhang Yang."

, in the Four-Party Alliance, in order to attack our Jizhou, we have gathered about 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers and horses!"

Jushuo was shocked. He had not received any news while he was running away. He avoided the crowd and kept fleeing in the wilderness to avoid being chased. So how did he know about this news?!

Unexpectedly, such a big thing happened along the way. Jushou's face changed drastically, and the color on his face quickly faded away!

Yuan Xi said: "Sir, if you don't tell me, Xi is also preparing to rescue! I just got the news today, so I rushed back to the city to discuss this matter. Since I'm here, sir, why don't you discuss it with Xi?"

Jushu murmured: "My lord, is there any news coming?!"

Yuan Xi said: "If we send the news to the front line and then send a letter, I'm afraid it won't arrive today."

"It's over!" Ju Shu said: "Unless the lord is willing to retreat, how can Lu Bu drive him out and retreat?! Tian Feng's words in the past are all true!"

After saying that, I burst into tears.

"Sir..." Yuan Xi is not worried. As long as he thinks about Yuan Shao's character, he will know why Jushu is crying. Because Yuan Shao really can't listen! Thinking that he is strong, he is arrogant and self-reliant, even arrogant. He thinks it's okay

Lu Bu has summoned a four-party alliance, which can be easily repulsed and will never be defeated. Therefore, he knows that the possibility of Yuan Shao retreating is not high!

After all, I have already sworn to fight Cao Cao and then fight Lu Bu!

He had made up his mind and decided on this strategy. Others tried to persuade him to change his policy, but Yuan Shao refused to listen. Even if you told the truth, Cao Lu would be destroyed, but Yuan Shao insisted on going his own way.

I mean.

Even Yuan Xi is worried!

"Second Young Master must go to save Jizhou, otherwise Jizhou will be lost!" Jushu said: "Jizhou is like the heart of the lord. If it loses its heart, how can it command the heroes no matter how huge it is? Even if there is only a large army, it has lost its foundation!"<

/p>

Yuan Xidao: "That's it! Now that I have received the letter of trial, I will personally lead the troops to rescue you!"

Jushou breathed a sigh of relief and gritted his teeth and said: "Since Shenpei is so tyrannical, Jizhou will definitely suffer from it. This is not God's will, it is a man-made disaster!"

Yuan Xi took him back to the camp, and immediately went up to the tent to discuss matters and military strategies. He did not hesitate to lead his troops to rescue him personally.

Seeing him like this, Jushu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Yuan Xi was selfless in his heart, so he did this with the mentality he should have, regardless of all the mess.

It is precisely because of the selflessness in my heart that I don’t worry about jealousy or being held accountable by the general accountant afterwards.

Jushu knew that Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan would never be like this. They would weigh the pros and cons. Before the decision was made, they had already lost the best opportunity!

If all of Yuan Ying’s soldiers were so selfless, why would they have reached this point?!

Although Yuan Xi was selfless, those who followed him had other ideas. A counselor walked up to Ju Shou and sighed heavily.

Ju Sue was startled, and the counselor looked back at Ju Sue and said with a wry smile: "... Sir, I lamented the Yuan family's misfortunes and blessings every day, but I lamented the misfortune of the second son's life. I lamented that if you are not the direct eldest son, you cannot be favored, neither superior nor inferior, although

They are both young masters, but they are just like ordinary generals. Young Master Ertan is always concerned about the overall situation, and is always trying to bridge the conflict between his elder brother and younger brother. Even if he tries his best, he is still just the second son who is neither better nor worse, with no status.

.Sir, should the Second Young Master have the fate of an ordinary soldier?!"

This man's eyes were sharp and he looked directly at Jushou.

"Destiny is determined by man. Although there is God's will, it only depends on man's will. I know that my husband is aggrieved for the second young master. However, can the second young master have a desire to compete in his heart? If he has a desire to compete, why should anyone ask? If you can strengthen yourself, if

No matter how unfair you are, I'm afraid it will be difficult..." Jushu said: "If the Yuan family does not survive, there is no use fighting anymore! If the great cause can be saved, who knows who will be the heir in the future?!
