In the current alliance of county magistrates, although there are many governors and county magistrates who dare to confront the Xiliang army under Dong Zhuo, there are actually not many people who dare to confront Dong Zhuo head-on.

Now the Kanto Alliance, which is confronting Dong Zhuo, has its main forces stationed in Hanoi, Zizao and Luyang.

The heads of the Hanoi battlefield were headed by Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang.

However, Yuan Shao had already gone to Yuyang to confront Liu Yu, while the employed person under Wang Kuang stationed troops in Mengjin and divided the Taishan troops to garrison in Heyangjin. However, Dong Zhuo was crossed by elite soldiers and attacked him through Xiaopingjin, and almost wiped out Wang Kuang's army.

On the other side of the sour jujube, there were a coalition forces led by Zang Hong, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Zhang Miao and others. However, because the internal relationship between the county magistrates of Yanzhou was relatively subtle, they kept their minds from each other and only sent small amounts of combat power to harass Dong Zhuo, and there was no large-scale military operation at all.

One of Hanoi and the Sourjuana battlefields was defeated, and the other was still stuck. Judging from the current situation, the only ones that could pose a threat to Dong Zhuo were Yuan Shu and Sun Jian.

The current division of labor between these two people is clear.

Yuan Shu recruited food and fodder in Luyang to provide food for Sun Jian ahead.

Sun Jian did not disappoint everyone's expectations. Although he was defeated by Xu Rong in Liangdi, Sun Jian later took the initiative to defeat Hu Zhen in the Yangren battle, kill Hua Xiong, and regain his disadvantage in one fell swoop. This was also a battle with the Xiliang army.

But at this critical moment, the alliance of the three Lius of the Han Dynasty was formed.

The Guardian Alliance was established, and the Alliance Letter announced to the world, which put Yuan Shu in a dilemma for a moment...

Should we let Sun Jian advance or not to let him advance?

In addition, Yuan Shao's letter was sent over at the same time, saying that he was planning to support Liu Yu and proclaim himself emperor and asked Yuan Shu to support him.

The actions of these two sides completely defeated Yuan Shu's plan to take the lead in defeating Luoyang to occupy the commanding heights.

Everything has to be done again.

...

Yuan Shu sat in the main hall and listened to Yan Xiang's analysis of these things for himself, and he couldn't help but feel a headache.

He closed his eyes, rubbed his temples with his hands, and asked Yan Xiang: "Now that the alliance of three Lius has been formed, the situation has changed suddenly, and Yuan Shao wants to support Liu Yu as the emperor again... From the perspective of Mr., how should Yuan do it at this extraordinary time?"

Yan Xiang is known for his thoughtful thoughts under Yuan Shu, and he can consider everything in every way. Therefore, Yuan Shu appointed him as the chief clerk... In later generations, he was almost the director of the two offices of leaders at all levels.

Sure enough, Yan Xiang was the same as usual again.

When he faced Yuan Shu's question, he was not in a hurry to answer, but stood there and thought carefully, roughly deducing all the situations in his mind.

Yuan Shu also knew Yan Xiang's habit, so he was not in a hurry to urge him, and just waited quietly.

After about a stick of incense, Yan Xiang finally spoke: "The latter general ordered Sun Jian to stop the attack on Dong Zhuo and immediately placed a letter to Yuan Shao, agreeing to join forces with him to support Liu Yu as the emperor."

Yuan Shu frowned.

“Why?”

Yan Xiang patiently explained to Yuan Shu: "The three Lius have taken great justice in the name of protecting the king. The true intention is to seek profit when the kings of Guandong and Dong thieves are fighting. At this time, if they regard the clan alliance as if nothing is needed and attack forcibly, if it really leads to the emperor's mistake, it will give the Liu clan members an excuse. This will not only lose the righteousness, but will also be despised by the people of the world, so they cannot attack forcibly."

Yuan Shu frowned: "Before being on guard, I can only give in for the time being, right?"

“Yes.”

Yuan Shu looked up at Tianpeng and sighed: "Since that's the case, then send someone to Yangren County to send a message and summon Sun Jian's troops to station on the spot, and do not act rashly."

Yan Xiang bowed and said, "The latter general is wise. He should stop his troops in Luyang, support Yuan Shao's plan to support Liu Yu, and divide the three Lius! If Liu Yu really becomes emperor, the alliance of clans will become a laughing stock in the world, and will no longer restrict you, but will also lead the great righteousness to us. At that time, the army will be legitimate and foolproof when it attacks Luoyang again."

The suggestions made by Yan Xiang are very consistent with the current situation and are all strategies that are beneficial to Yuan Shu.

But for some reason, Yuan Shu's face became less and less beautiful.

The meaning contained in the expression is indescribable, and no one knows why...

He seemed to be suffering in his heart, but ordinary people could not guess what he was suffering because of.

Seeing this, Yan Xing couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that he had said something wrong?

But what I just said is normal.

"Why is the general in such a manner? Could it be that what Bei Zhi said just now is wrong, or is there something that offended the general?"

A stiff smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Shu's mouth, and he shook his head and said, "Sir, I'm worried. Yuan is just a little uncomfortable and it's not a big deal. Don't think too much... Let Sun Jian stop the military for the time being, so let the teacher do it. As for Benchu, Yuan will reply to him by himself."

Although Yan Xiang was confused, since Yuan Shu had agreed, there was nothing serious about it and he immediately said goodbye.

After Yan Xiang left, Yuan Shu took a pen with the words "White Horse" engraved on the table, stared at the pen quietly for a while, and suddenly he used both hands to fold the pen into two pieces.

Then, Yuan Shu threw the remaining bodies of the two pieces of pen on the ground.

The soldiers behind Yuan Shu saw it, but they didn't say anything.

Although they are not talkative, they are also slightly doubtful at this moment.

I wonder why the general was very angry... Just now, they didn't hear the reason for making people angry?

"The latter general! Please see the last general." A person outside the hall asked for a loud look.

Listening to the sound, Yuan Shu knew it was Chen Lan, the captain he had just promoted from the army.

"Come in." Yuan Shu's tone was still unpleasant.

After Chen Lan entered the hall, she looked down at the broken pen on the ground, and her heart trembled slightly... The general got angry again?

He said carefully: "The Later General, the last general, the last general, was on duty to patrol the city and intercepted a messenger from the Jingzhou Army near the southern suburbs. He claimed that he was sent by Liu Qi, the captain of Xiangyang, and brought Liu Qi a handwritten letter to the Later General."

Yuan Shu frowned and murmured, "Liu Qi? Oh, I remember it. It was the son of Liu Jingsheng who killed the thief in Nanjun... Where is Liu Lang's letter?"

Chen Lan immediately presented a piece of silk.

Yuan Shu opened the silk and looked at the few lines, and then looked at the look of surprise on his face.

He put the silk in his hand on the table and ordered Chen Lan: "You are so happy to entertain the messenger. When you look back, I will order someone to pass on the talismans from Nanyang County to him. You tell him to keep it safe and be sure to take it back and hand it over to his Mr. Liu, and he said that Yuan was waiting in Luyang."

Chen Lan bowed her hand to answer her order.

But he still couldn't control his curiosity and asked, "General, why did you let the messenger of the Liu family take the talisman from Nanyang County?"

Yuan Shu said a little sarcastically: "Liu Jingsheng's son is coming to Luyang to visit someone... Haha, the old guy named Liu has a lot of deceit and thoughts. The old guy dared not come forward, but instead asked his son to come to meet me? It's a strange thing."

Chen Lan said in surprise: "What's the matter with Liu Biao's old son?"

"What else can it be? He, Jingyi and his army wanted to go to Luoyang and had to leave our Nanyang County. This is the Liu family showing kindness to me and asking Yuan to allow him to pass through."
