Yang Hong knew in his heart that the so-called being ridiculed by the world is actually a small problem, and there are many more serious things, but now he doesn't care about those, Yuan Shu has been hit too hard, he must first build up confidence in Yuan Shu, Just cheer him up.

Yang Hong said earnestly: "My lord, just listen to Hong's words. Although our army was defeated, if you think about it carefully, because Li Yi didn't have many troops, so although our army was defeated, the casualties were limited. Ten thousand horses is not difficult, but if the Lord is too sad and delays the opportunity, and the other generals don't know the Lord's situation and are not allowed to give orders, even if they want to maintain the army, they may not be able to do it!"

Yuan Shu restrained his crying, Yang Hong's words were reasonable, and indeed gave him hope.

Seeing this, Yang Hong continued: "My lord! Although we have suffered some injuries in the city of Xiangyang this time, in comparison, how much better is Jingzhou?"

Yuan Shu looked at Yang Hong in puzzlement, only to hear Yang Hong say: "Before, the lord's soldiers and horses fought successively all the way, broke Jiangxia, won several battles in a row, wiped out tens of thousands of enemies, and the battlefields are all in Jingzhou. Jingzhou wants to recover. It can’t be done overnight.”

"The root of the lord lies in Yangzhou. Although Yangzhou Ding Zhuang has dispatched a lot this time, the land of Yangzhou has not been directly affected by the flames of war. After the lord returns to Yangzhou safely, he will follow the example of Goujian, the king of Yue, to work hard and recuperate. With the population of Yangzhou, it will not take ten years , As long as it takes three years, you will be able to recover, and then the army will be reorganized. Taking today's defeat as a lesson, why can't the lord be able to conquer Jingzhou, and why can't he kill Li Yi's son to relieve his hatred?"

After all, Yuan Shu was the hero of the party. He lost control of his emotions before, and he had vented a lot by crying. Now that Yang Hong reminded him, Yuan Shu had gradually regained his senses and began to think seriously about the status quo.

Yuan Shu felt that Yang Hong's words were very reasonable. The failure this time was not because he was not resourceful enough, nor was it that the soldiers of the Yangzhou Army were not brave enough, but because Li Yi was too despicable and failed his trust.

Then, as long as he is given time to return to Yangzhou to regroup, and as long as he is no longer so innocently deceived, Yuan Shu is absolutely sure to crush Li Yi to death like an ant.

That's right, what Yuan Shu wants to do most now is to kill Li Yi. As for the great cause of attacking Jingzhou, he has put it behind Li Yi.

After a while, Yuan Shu took a deep breath and bowed to Yang Hong: "Shu has benefited a lot from Changyou's words, thank you!"

"Don't dare, as long as the lord cheers up, it will be my luck!"

Yang Hong hurriedly returned the gift, but at the same time he felt a little weird, and Yuan Shu's tone seemed a bit wrong.

Yuan Shu said: "You and I will go on the road immediately and retreat in the direction of Yicheng. There are four thousand soldiers of Chen Ji. Although they are not many, they are enough to save our lives. Then let Chen Ji arrange people to disperse the soldiers and horses, which will be half the effort. !"

"As for Li Yi, this shameless guy is too cunning. Zhang Liao retreated probably because he couldn't cross the river to pursue him. He deliberately let me wait carelessly, and then secretly detoured to stop me in front."

Yang Hong's heart was shocked, he hadn't thought of this, he couldn't help feeling afraid for a while, and nodded hastily.

Yuan Shu continued: "Since Zhang Liao let Yongyi live, it can be seen that there is no danger of his life in a short period of time. You should think of a way for me, how to redeem Ji Ling, even if he suffers some grievances. Of course, except Ji Ling , if anyone else falls into Li Yi's hands, they must be saved!"

"at last"

Yuan Shu sighed, and said: "I am going to write a letter to the Son of Heaven, to plead guilty to the Son of Heaven, and to relinquish the title of King of Chu."

Yang Hong raised his head suddenly, opened his eyes wide, and asked in surprise, "Why?"

Unbelievable was written all over Yang Hong's face. Yuan Shu had only been crowned king for a few days, but after losing a battle, he had to take off the title of king. Wouldn't this be a joke?

Seeing Yuan Hong's expression, Yuan Shu smiled wryly. As the person involved, he knew best whether he should be ashamed or not.

However, Yuan Shu's thoughts were very firm, and he explained to Yang Hong: "When I became king before, the world was afraid of the name of my Yuan family. Even if the army was dispatched, even if they knew that Yangzhou was empty, they would not dare to take any action, but this time they were defeated. , and still lost at the hands of Li Yi, a yellow-haired kid, how does the world feel? They must think that the technique is nothing more than that, and the name is not worthy of the name."

"Although Li Yi is insidious and cunning, according to my expectation, he will probably not continue to march into Yangzhou. After all, Li Yi's troops are limited, and because of the relationship between Li Yi and Liu Biao, he dare not fight abroad at all. After that, he will probably restrain his minions and go first. Compete with Liu Biao for Jingzhou."

"If Li Yi does not move, the imperial court will definitely urge other places to send troops. Those places did not dare to act before, but how they will choose now is really unpredictable. Although Shu is not afraid, but with this trouble, Yangzhou will no longer have time to recuperate. The battle will lead to death, so, Shu thought about it, in order to have time to recover, so what if he asked the court for his sins?"

At this time, Yang Hong finally understood Yuan Shu's painstaking efforts, and secretly felt that he was worthy of being his lord for being able to make such a decisive choice, but he still had concerns in his heart, and asked, "Even if the lord expresses his guilt, the imperial court will give up sending troops and horses." Have you attacked Yangzhou?"

Yuan Shu's face darkened, and he said, "Lv Bu and Li Yi have a close relationship. I didn't realize it before, but now that I think about it, the fact that Lv Bu entered Yanzhou was very strange. Most likely, his motives were impure. It's difficult for Cao Cao to make any moves in such a short period of time. It is Xuzhou and Yuzhou. The position of the shepherd in Yuzhou may change. Let’s not talk about it. Tao Qian in Xuzhou is very likely to send troops, but Xuzhou does not have people who are good at fighting. As long as I wait for a while, Tao Qian will not be able to take advantage of it. , and Li Yisheng is the first to win the battle, in order to save face, the imperial court should agree to my apology."

Having said this, Yuan Shu snorted disdainfully, and said: "As long as the imperial court can save face, they can't care about anything else."

Yang Hong thought for a while, and there was nothing to add for a while, so he said, "My lord is wise!"

As usual, Yuan Shu always smiled when he heard such praise, but today, he couldn't smile, sighed lightly, patted Yang Hong on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go, continue on the road, I hope to meet you." To our general."

Immediately, Yuan Shu and his party began to walk towards Yicheng. This time Yuan Shu was not bad luck. After walking in the mountains for less than half an hour, he came across the main road and continued walking along the main road. Li Yi was not there. The chasing soldiers appeared, but they met some rout soldiers, and they were all gathered by Yuan Shu, but the number was not many, only about [-] in total.

From the mouths of these defeated soldiers, Yuan Shu learned that after the camp was broken, a group of Li Yi's soldiers and horses chased them along the main road. Therefore, only they in the Yangzhou Army fled quickly, and most of the other soldiers fled. The horses were all cut off at the back. If you can find the general who leads the troops, you can gather some people and horses and charge. As for the ordinary soldiers who were scattered, it may be difficult to come back.

This news made Yuan Shu feel heavy in his heart. He originally expected to gather tens of thousands of defeated soldiers, but now it seems that it may be difficult.

Yuan Shu led people stumbling for a long time, and suddenly saw a pair of soldiers and horses rushing in front of them. Yuan Shu was on guard at first, but soon became overjoyed. It turned out that the person who came was Chen Lan, his general. Before Yuan Shu thought that Chen Lan died in battle, but unexpectedly But it was a great pleasure to see him here.

Seeing Yuan Shu, Chen Lan was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. First, she apologized, saying that she failed to protect Yuan Shu Yunyun. Yuan Shu naturally would not blame him. Instead, she comforted Chen Lan for a long time, and then asked Chen Lan if she knew the situation of the others. Unexpectedly, Chen Lan A look of grief and indignation suddenly appeared on his face, he gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, those yellow scarves are indeed thieves. After the last general escaped, he went to Li Yang nearby and asked them to bring troops to help. Unexpectedly, when they learned that our army was defeated, they went He had a different intention and wanted to take the last general to claim credit for Li Yi, although the last general escaped by chance, but those soldiers who followed the last general escaped the fight last night, but were killed by these thieves!"

Yuan Shu's face darkened, he thought for a while, and said doubtfully, "You're talking about the Yuzhou Yellow Turban that was thrown in a few days ago."

Chen Lan said angrily: "It's these three dog thieves who eat inside and outside!"

Yuan Shu was stunned. Only then did he confirm who Chen Lan was cursing.

The yellow scarf leaders of Yuzhou, He Man, He Yi, and Huang Shao, wanted to go to Yuan Shu earlier. Yuan Shu was recruiting troops because he was going to send troops to Jingzhou. He generously granted them official posts, and at first both parties were very satisfied.

However, who is Yuan Shu? The Yuan family of four generations and three princes, although He Man and the others were appointed officials by Yuan Shu, in Yuan Shu's heart, these people are still thieves, and they will not change their appearance and look at them high. Therefore, some Yuan Shu took the lead, Zhang Xun, Ji Ling and others also followed suit. Although He Man and the others were incorporated into the Yangzhou Army, they were not considered members of the Yangzhou Army at all. People's military power.

Especially when attacking Liyang, because Huang Zhong resisted too fiercely, the Yangzhou army suffered heavy losses, so Zhang Xun asked the original Yellow Turban army to take their lives to fill them up. Anyway, he didn't feel sorry for dying, but when the city was about to collapse, he asked them to withdraw When they got down, Rang Le went up to pick up a bargain.

Yuan Shu knew all these things, and even knew that He Man and the others dared not speak up, but Yuan Shu didn't take it seriously. He didn't think that He Man had the guts to turn against him. Waiting for someone to turn around immediately.

Yuan Shu sighed. Although he was a little angry, he didn't scold He Man and the others. Instead, he blamed himself: "The root of this matter lies with me, that's all, if we don't go to Liyang, I think they dare not go out of the city to embarrass them with their small number of people. of."

Chapter 413 Yuan Shu is sick

"what?"

Chen Lan opened her mouth wide and stared blankly at Yuan Shu, her eyes filled with disbelief.

What kind of people are He Man and his gang, who actually chose to betray the Yangzhou army at the most critical time? From Chen Lan's understanding, even if Yuan Shu didn't immediately go into a rage, he should say a few cruel words, saying that he would tear them to pieces in the future. paragraphs and the like.

But now, Yuan Shu just sighed lightly, is this the end?

What's even more unbelievable is that Yuan Shu even said that he was at fault?

Is this still the lord I know?

Facing Chen Lan's doubts, Yuan Shu just shook his head slightly. If he had done it in the past, he would definitely not let He Man and the others go. In fact, Yuan Shu is also very angry now, but because of such a big somersault this time, Yuan Shu spent a lot Therefore, it is not difficult for Yuan Shu to understand that He Man and others will make such a choice, and his own contempt for He Man and others definitely occupies a large part of the reason.

Moreover, Yuan Shu also thought of more from He Man and others.

Why can Li Yi's [-] troops be defeated in one night attack?

In the end, it was not because I was too negligent towards those soldiers. Many soldiers were forcibly recruited, and I was not considerate or caring enough for them on weekdays. I won the battle before, and it was okay for everyone to get the benefits together, but once they met In a critical situation, such a soldier would only think about running for his life, and would not fight to the death for him at all.

Yuan Shu didn't give Chen Lan a detailed explanation, but said softly: "The traitors have already betrayed, let them go, my Yangzhou soldiers have suffered too many casualties this time."

When Chen Lan heard this, she felt sore in her heart, and couldn't say anything for a while.

Seeing this, Yang Hong stepped forward and patted Chen Lan on the shoulder. At this moment, Chen Lan realized that although Yang Hong was in a mess, his eyes were very bright. It seemed that he was not as embarrassed as the others after the defeat.

Yang Hong smiled, but he was more optimistic, because he found that Yuan Shu seemed to have changed after this failure. Whether it was treating the courtiers around him or the soldiers at the bottom, Yuan Shu no longer treated them differently, but It was beginning to show a kind of heartfelt concern.
