Chapter 66: The Jade Seal Controversy

Yuan Shao frowned and said: "Sun Jian, if you take the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, you will hand it over, and you may return it to your Majesty in the future. As long as you hand over the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, the matter will be revealed."

Sun Jian shouted: "No, there is no! How can the leader listen to such absurd rumors! It is terrible! Isn't the leader jealous of his feats, so he joined forces with Yuan Shu to slander me?" Yuan Shao was furious and shouted: "Sun Jian , Don’t be stubborn!” When everyone saw this scene, they were suspicious, and they couldn’t tell whether Sun Jian really hid the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo, or the Yuan brothers wanted to get rid of Sun Jian and break through Hulao Pass. The biggest hero?

Sun Jian sneered and said, "Since this place is not tolerable, I will return to Jiangdong next time! Goodbye!" Chao Yuan Shao bowed his hand and wanted to leave.

Yuan Shu sternly shouted, "Don't even think about going anywhere without handing over Yuxi!"

Sun Jian was furious and shouted: "Yuan Shu, others are afraid of you, I am not afraid of you! If you have the courage to fight with me for a hundred rounds, see if I don't cut off your dog's head!" The two men were tense and the atmosphere was very tense. Persuade. Yuan Shu wanted to solve Sun Jian and winked at Yuan Shao frequently. However, Yuan Shao considered that Sun Jian did not admit that Sun Jian’s guilt could not be condemned by just relying on a deserter. If he really took action against Sun Jian and caused infighting among the coalition forces, he would not only be caught Dong Zhuo laughed, fearing that it would be difficult to convince the public, so he ignored Yuan Shu's wink.

Sun Jian snorted and led Huang Gai and others out of the big tent.

Yuan Shu asked Yuan Shaodao anxiously; "Why did your brother let him go like this?"

Cao Cao couldn't help saying: "My top priority is not a stone, but to save your Majesty! How can you turn your heads against a stone!" Then he said to Yuan Shao: "Brother Ben Chu, Dong Zhuo fled Luoyang in a hurry, the army is in chaos, this It is the golden opportunity to defeat Dong Zhuo and save His Majesty! Never miss this most important thing because of his business! Please send the order immediately with an enemy army that temporarily restrains Luoyang, and the main force is to pursue it and wait for rescue. After getting off Shengjia, if you work hard to regain Luoyang, the world will be the same!"

Yuan Shao hesitated. Yuan Shu said: "The three armies are exhausted, how can they rush to pursue it?"

Cao Cao looked at the other princes and saw that they were all indifferent. He couldn't help but furious, pointing at them and cursing; "There is not enough tactics!" After that, he walked away.

Yuan Shao's face was unhappy.

At this moment, an army officer rushed in to report; "Enlighten the lord, Sun Jian has left with his troops!" Everyone was surprised, Yuan Shu immediately said: "Sun Jian is a guilty conscience, and the jade seal of the country must be here. His hands!" Everyone felt this way, and they couldn't help feeling jealous.

Cao Cao returned to his military camp and immediately sent the various ministries to pursue Dong Zhuo. Cao Ren was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Lord, let's chase Dong Zhuo all the way. I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Cao Cao said sharply, "No matter what the outcome is, this thing must be done! Hurry up and send the order!" "Brother Meng De Good spirit!" A man's voice came.

Cao Cao followed the sound and saw Liu Bei and Zhang Fei coming. Turning his head to Cao Ren said: "Go and pass the order immediately." Cao Ren clasped his fist and ran down as promised. Cao Cao greeted Liu Bei and Zhang Fei with a smile, and said with a smile, "Brother Xuande, Brother Yide, why are you here?"

Zhang Fei exclaimed angrily, "I was almost suffocated by staying with those villains! So my eldest brother and I came to you!"

Cao Cao laughed and praised: "Brother Yide is really quick to talk!"

Liu Bei asked, "Brother Meng De mobilized troops and horses overnight, where is he going?"

Cao Cao said: "Don't hide the truth from Brother Xuande, although the princes are unwilling to save the holy driver, you can't just sit idly by. I plan to pursue Dong Zhuo alone to save Your Majesty!" Zhang Fei praised with a thumbs up: "Good spirit. ! With so many princes, Cao Cao is still a person!" Cao Cao smiled and said: "Yingde has won the prize!

Liu Bei clasped his fist and said, "If Brother Meng De didn't dislike it, my brothers would have gone with Brother Meng De!" Cao Cao was overjoyed. "So he arranged the two to his side. Soon after, the whole army of Cao Cao's army drove to the west to chase after him.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were discussing matters in the big account, and suddenly received a report that Cao Cao led his army alone to pursue Dong Zhuo. Yuan Shu sneered; "Cao Cao is such an idiot!" Then he slapped Yuan Shao: "Brother, we must not let Sun Jian return to Jiangdong, otherwise I'm afraid it will be another Dong Zhuo with endless troubles! What kind of thing is his Sun Jian, he dare to hide the jade seal of the country. ! Then only the elder brother deserves to own the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo!"

Yuan Shao showed hesitation, and said, "It's a bit wrong to chase Sun Jian openly! It's better to write a secret letter to Liu Biao, asking him to intercept Sun Jian." Yuan Shu's eyes lit up and he praised: "A good plan! Then Liu Biao is a royal family kin, so he will not allow Sun Jian to return to Jiangdong with the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in any case!"

Yuan Shao immediately wrote a secret letter, and ordered a reliable person under the account to wait and rush to Jingzhou with the secret letter.

After Yuan Shao finished this, he said to Yuan Shu: "Now what we have to consider is where to go. Should we continue to attack Luoyang or just stop?"

Yuan Shudao: "I think the top priority now is Sun Jian's Jade Seal of the Kingdom. There are Chen Lang guards in Luoyang. I really don't know how much troops and horses it will take to defeat Luoyang. I'm afraid it will be more than worth the loss in the end! What's more, I see all the princes. They are already discouraged, if they want to urge them to attack Luoyang, I am afraid that few people really want to!"

Yuan Shao frowned and said, "Then you mean to stop here?" Yuan Shu nodded and smiled: "As everyone knows today, my brother led the eighteenth route princes into the Huja Pass in order to rescue Your Majesty and the court, and Dong Zhuo was panicked. Fleeing, with this reputation is enough, there is no need to consume it! If you consume it again, there will only be disadvantages and no benefits!"

Yuan Shao nodded, and then said: "Although what you said is reasonable, I still want to wait and see. I want to see if Cao Mengde can gain anything from this attack. If he can save the holy driver, I will serve the heavens. Zi attacked Luoyang, so that the world would be in my control once it came. Otherwise, I would just give it up."

A few days later, an emergency report came from the west. During the pursuit, the soldiers and horses of Cao Cao suffered heavy losses from the ambush of Dong Zhuo general Xu Rong and returned. Yuan Shao couldn't help sighing; "Fortunately, I am cautious, otherwise my soldiers and horses will suffer heavy losses!"

Soon after, Cao Cao returned with the defeated soldiers. Yuan Shao hosted a banquet to appease Cao Cao. And at this moment, an officer suddenly rushed into the big tent and hurriedly shouted: "It's not good, it's not good!..." He fell to his knees with a plop. Yuan Shao shouted angrily: "What are you doing in a panic?"

The officer swallowed, and hurriedly said, "Guan Yu at Boshui Pass suddenly led an attack and captured Dazhai outside Guan!"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this. Yuan Shaohuo stood up and shouted; "How is this possible! I left Dazhai outside the pass with 60,000 troops, and the enemy army at Boshui Pass is only 20,000. How can I attack Dazhai?"

The officer said: "General Du Tong thought that the enemy would not come and was unprepared. As a result, Guan Yu led his army into the camp by night, defeating the army in one fell swoop, and burning all the grain and grass!"

Yuan Shao angrily asked, "Where is Du Tong? I'm going to kill him!"

The officer said; "General Du Tong has been slashed by the Guan Yu formation in the chaos!" Everyone panicked, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Cao Cao burst out laughing suddenly. Everyone looked at Cao Cao puzzled.

Cao Cao smiled and said: "The hero of the world, who deserves Cao's admiration, is really only Brother Chen Lang! Good! This trick is really powerful! Under such a strong enemy, we can perform this counter-attack, such as the Pegasus meteor. It's amazing!" Everyone was depressed when they heard the words, but they had to agree with Cao Cao's words secretly.

Cao Cao glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "This is the end of the matter. It's useless for me to stay here anymore, so I might as well just leave it." After the words fell, he got up and left. Everyone looked at each other, and they all retreated. All the princes stood up to say goodbye to Yuan Shao and left. All the princes returned to their respective armies and eagerly left with their soldiers and horses. The grain and grass had been burned. If they did not retreat quickly, the consequences would be unthinkable. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu also retreated shortly after taking their own soldiers and horses. Before long, only Cao Cao was left outside Luoyang city.

Cao Ren was very worried and said: "Master, everyone is gone, why are we not leaving? If that Chen Lang, the handsome soldiers attack, we, we..."

Cao Cao laughed, patted Cao Ren on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry. I know Chen Lang, he would never come to lead his soldiers to beat me at this time!" Cao Ren asked inexplicably, "Why? "Cao Cao laughed, "Because he is a hero!" Cao Ren said.

Cao Cao said: "Come with me." Cao Ren asked: "Where to go?" "Go and see my brother Chen!"

Soon after, Cao Cao and Cao Rence Spurs left the camp and came to Luoyang City Gate. Cao Ren was very nervous, but Cao Cao had a relaxed expression and shouted, "Brother Chen, here comes my old friend!"

After a while, the city gate opened, and Chen Lang drove out of the city accompanied by Gan Ning. Chen Lang smiled and clasped his fists and said: "Brother Cao!" Cao Cao also clasped his fists and smiled: "Brother Chen, I came here to see your old friend specially today!" Chen Lang asked, "Since you are an old friend, don't be there. Speaking here, how about a good drink in Dukang Building?" Cao Cao laughed and nodded; "Okay!" He urged the horse to go up. Cao Ren was taken aback, but seeing that Cao Cao had passed by, he had to follow him.

The two entered the city gate, walked along the street towards Du Kang Building, chatting about the trivial matters when they were in Luoyang that day, and laughed out loud from time to time. But Cao Ren, who was following Cao Cao, was nervous, always looking at the surroundings uneasy. No wonder he is like this. Strictly speaking, now Cao Cao and Chen Lang are enemies and not friends!
