Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Yuan Shao's words of severe punishment for Ju Su fell into Guo Tu's ears like the sound of nature, and their beauty even surpassed the most pleasant sound in the world.

Among the many advisers under Yuan Shao, the one Guo Tu feared the most was Ju Su.

This person has a heavy responsibility, not only to supervise the actions of the army, but also to ensure the discipline and morale of the army.

At the same time, he is also an ambitious and strategic man who can always come up with some unexpected strategies to deal with various complex situations.

More importantly, Ju Shou enjoyed extremely high prestige in the Jizhou camp.

He not only gained the trust of Yuan Shao, but also was respected by other generals.

Many famous and brave generals in the army respected him and were willing to follow his command.

Therefore, if it were not for the opportunity of Yuan Shao sending troops, Guo Tu would have no chance of winning against him.

However, now Guo Tu finally waited for this opportunity, he successfully grasped the military power and became Yuan Shao's right-hand man.

However, he was not satisfied with this. He knew that as long as Ju Shou was still alive, he might come back and take away everything he had.

Therefore, he would never let Ju Shou return to Jizhou, let alone let him take control of the military power again. Only in this way could he ensure that his own position and power would not be threatened.

So before Ju Shou came back, he had to reduce Ju Shou's image in Yuan Shao's mind to the lowest level.

"My lord, Ju Shou has not returned yet. Could it be that he has also surrendered to Uncle Liu?"

When Yuan Shao heard this, he was so shocked that he almost fainted.

He paused for a long time before gritting his teeth and said, "Ju Shou is different from Zhang He. He is from a Jizhou noble family, and his family and relatives are all in Jizhou. If he dares to surrender to the enemy, I will definitely kill all his family members."

Hearing Yuan Shao's words, Guo Tu's eyes were filled with joy, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. From the current point of view, his power was temporarily preserved.

A few hours later, Jiang Yiqu hurried over to report to Yuan Shao. He knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I have gathered 50,000 scattered soldiers. They are now gathering outside the tent and waiting for your order. We are all willing to die for you!"

Yuan Shao nodded slightly and said seriously: "Uncle Liu has many soldiers and many tricks. We must deal with them carefully. Although these 50,000 people are considerable in number, it is impossible to defeat Liu Yu. You just need to let the soldiers form a good camp and prevent them from launching a surprise attack. That will be a great achievement."

Jiang Yiqu responded, "Yes, my lord! I will convey your instructions immediately." After that, he stood up and left.

Yuan Shao looked at Jiang Yiqu's departing back, a hint of comfort flashing in his eyes.

Although he lost the battle, the 50,000 soldiers delayed Liu Yu's attack and provided conditions for him to escape back to Yecheng.

The memory of escaping with eighteen riders still terrifies Yuan Shao.

At this time, Jiang Yiqu had already received the order and was about to leave, but suddenly he heard Yuan Shao continue to ask: "Is there any news about Ju Su among those scattered soldiers?"

Jiang Yiqu didn't understand why Yuan Shao suddenly mentioned Ju Su, so he could only answer truthfully: "I haven't received any news about the military supervisor yet."

Yuan Shao's face turned a little ugly. Seeing this, Jiang Yiqu hurriedly added: "Don't worry, lord. I will send some more people to find his whereabouts."

Yuan Shao nodded and said firmly: "Go, find him no matter what."

Seeing how persistent Yuan Shao was in finding Ju Su, Jiang Yiqu felt a warm feeling well up in his heart.

He thought Yuan Shao was only concerned about Ju Su's safety, and he was deeply moved.

It is really touching that the lord cherishes talents so much!

When Jiang Yiqu came again, he still did not find Ju Su, but he brought Xu You back for Yuan Shao.

It turned out that after Xu You's plan was discovered by Liu Yu, he had been in a daze and walking aimlessly.

It was not until he was brought before Yuan Shao that he regained some consciousness.

The muscles on Yuan Shao's face twitched, and he snorted coldly, saying in a cold tone: "Xu Ziyuan, the plan of luring the enemy to Wuchao that I spent countless efforts and time to carefully arrange turned out to be like child's play in the eyes of Liu Yu, and was seen through in an instant! Tell me, how did he do it?"

Xu You silently watched Yuan Shao and sighed inwardly. After a long while, he slowly answered, "My lord, Liu Huangshu is a man of many schemes, and his strategist Guo Jia is even more cunning. If the two of them join forces, it won't be difficult for them to see through our plan."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shao's face became even darker, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it! Liu Yu is so cunning!" He slammed the table fiercely, his anger was evident in his words, "This defeat is all because of you, do you know your guilt?"

Xu You said calmly: "Please tell me clearly, my lord. I don't know what crime I have committed."

Yuan Shao slammed the table, making a loud bang.

"Xu You, even now, you still don't know how to repent?"

Xu You was a little confused, and after a while, he asked, "What did the lord want me to change?"

Yuan Shao laughed out of anger, and the look on Xu You's face was meaningful.

"The destruction of Wuchao's food supplies resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of my elite troops. Aren't you responsible for all this?

At this point, you don't think about repentance, and you are still making trouble. How can I tolerate such behavior? Come, take Xu You away and kill him directly."

The soldier took the order and hurried over, ready to take Xu You away.

Seeing the soldiers coming, the light in Xu You's eyes gradually faded until it disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Guo Tu hurried out to persuade them.

"My Lord, we have all seen the wisdom of Uncle Liu. It is very appropriate to say that he is cunning and scheming. If you use a trick in front of such a person, even if it is discovered, it is very likely.

Ziyuan was ordered to carry out this mission, but unfortunately he was discovered by Emperor Liu. Although he is guilty, his crime does not deserve death. I dare to ask the Lord to withdraw the order. "

Yuan Shao thought for a moment and felt that what Guo Tu said made some sense.

His face was as calm as water, his eyes as deep as the abyss, and he slowly said: "Since Gongze pleads for you, well, I will spare your life for now. Come! Take Xu You into prison and wait for your punishment."

When Xu You heard that he was spared the death penalty, he was relieved, but his face remained calm, as if he had not heard the news, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

Two soldiers stepped forward and took Xu You out of the hall. Xu You walked steadily and calmly, and he didn't seem to care that he was about to be imprisoned.

With Xu You being taken away, the storm subsided temporarily.

Guo Tu remained silent, thinking about what had just happened.
