"No, you mustn't." When Yan Xiang heard this, he hurriedly stood out to stop him.
Yuan Shu glared at Yan Xiang.”
"Those surrendered soldiers are ultimately His Majesty's soldiers. If His Majesty randomly shoots them away, what will the soldiers in the city think? Doing so would cause the morale of the army to be lost!”
"Are you going to let those surrendered soldiers into the city again to spread rumors?”
"Your Majesty, I think that we should put the surrendered soldiers into the city and keep them under strict watch. They are not allowed to interact with the outside world. After the Cao army has retreated, we can release them.”
" This..." Yuan Shu hesitated for a moment and nodded." Then we'll do as you say."”
Yan Xiang heaved a sigh of relief and continued," By the way, Your Majesty, since these surrendered soldiers have returned from Cao Cao's camp, we can summon a few people to inquire about the situation in Cao Cao's camp. We should know ourselves and our enemies."”
Hearing this, Yuan Shu thought it was a good idea. He immediately ordered two thousand soldiers to surrender and then summoned a few generals into the palace.
However, after some questioning.
Yuan Shu's mentality completely collapsed.
The old official who spoke earlier was also stunned on the spot, no longer as high-spirited as before.
The surrounding civil and military officials looked at each other with obscure expressions. They all had the same thought.
In such a situation, they had to surrender to Cao Cao to survive!
Only Yan Xiang felt heavy.
Cao Cao was indeed a hero!
Shouchun was probably in danger this time.
After a while, Yuan Shu came back to his senses and pointed at the old minister who spoke with a livid face."Men, take this old thing out and put him in the death row.”
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. This old subject…This old subject is wronged.”
Yan Xiang fell silent.
His Majesty was exasperated.
If the master is like this, how can I be loyal?
He raised his head and looked around. As expected, he saw many civil and military officials whispering to each other. There were many angry people.
Yan Xiang felt even more exhausted.
Even the descendants of four generations and three dukes would not be able to withstand such nonsense!
He really couldn't carry it.
However, as a strategist, if he couldn't help his lord solve his problems, then what was the difference between him and these officials?
Yan Xiang sighed and cupped his hands." Your Majesty, please don't be angry. The most important thing now is to quickly order people to clean up the water in the city to prevent it from causing trouble."”
"In addition, I need my lord to reward the three armies again to boost their morale and deal with the Cao army.”
"Another reward?" Yuan Shu looked pained.
The last time he rewarded the three armies, he had spent a lot of money in the treasury. He really couldn't bear to do it again.
"I hope that Your Majesty will put the overall situation first. Only by protecting Shouchun can there be a future…Otherwise, what's the use of leaving behind so much money?”
"I understand, I just…"
Yuan Shu's heart ached for a long time before he reluctantly said," Forget it, forget it. Then let's reward the three armies."”
There must be brave men under heavy rewards.
Yuan Shu had given out a large sum of money, and Shouchun's morale had indeed improved visibly.
This went on for a few days.
The news made Cao Cao envious.
Yuan Shu was indeed the descendant of four generations of three dukes. He had a huge family business and countless wealth.
If he had such a family background, he wouldn't have come to fight Shouchun and only managed to scrape together half a year's worth of food.
Now, half of the time had passed.
There were still three months left. If he couldn't take down Shouchun, he could only withdraw his troops.
However, based on the current situation, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"My lord, are you thinking about the battle in Shouchun?”
In the camp, Su Ran was playing chess with Cao Cao. She placed down a chess piece and asked.
"Yes, I'm a little worried." Cao Cao nodded.
"Actually, my lord, you don't have to do this."
Su Ran smiled and comforted him." We just have to wait for the rain to stop. Shouchun will be broken by then."”
"That's true. It's useless for me to think about it like this.”
Cao Cao looked at Su Ran with a relaxed expression." Furthermore, I have Yi An and Feng Xiao. We will definitely win this battle!"”
After saying that.
Cao Cao put down a chess piece.
"Exactly."
"But my lord, I won this game.”
Su Ran smiled.
"You're really omnipotent. I admit defeat.”Cao Cao smiled and shook his head. He then stood up and stretched his body.
"Let's go and find Feng Xiao to drink."
Cao Cao invited.
"Alright."
"Feng Xiao has been sleeping in the camp these few days. He is really carefree. We can't let him continue.”
Su Ran said with ill intentions.
Guo Jia was used to being casual. Usually, he would never stand if he could sit or lie down. How could he be described as carefree?
There had been no war recently, so he would often lie in bed and sleep for a day and a night after drinking.
Cao Cao also favored Guo Jia. No matter what Guo Jia did, he did not say a single word.
"You want to drag Fengxiao to ride a horse again?"
"My lord, drinking the strongest wine, riding the best horse, and playing with the most beautiful women are what a man should do, don't you think so?”
Su Ran blinked.
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately looked at Su Ran in a new light.
Previously, he thought that Su Ran was not interested in women, but now he found out that Su Ran was also a sentimental person like him and Guo Jia.
It seemed that he would have company with Guo Jia in the future.
"Alright."
"Let's go, pull Fengxiao to ride a horse."
Cao Cao was overjoyed. He grabbed Su Ran's arm and walked towards Guo Jia's camp.
Su Ran laughed behind Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's preference for Guo Jia was due to this. He was straightforward and had the same interests as Cao Cao.
He was born in a poor family and had to build a good relationship with Cao Cao.
And the best method was to cater to his preferences.
That day.
The three of them rode their horses in the rain, leaving and returning to their hearts 'content.
Although Guo Jia was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back and his body was sore, he was still smiling.
At night, the three of them got drunk again before returning to their respective camps to rest.
After this incident.
It had unknowingly deepened the relationship between the three of them.
He was both a subject and a confidant.
