The title of the monarch and ministers has been decided, and Sun Ce immediately told Lu Su the latest situation.

The most important issue at present is of course that Yuan Shao sent Liu He and others to harass Yuzhou, and the Hu cavalry aroused a lot of opposition, but the Runan family is unquestionable. Sun Ce wanted to severely damage these Hu cavalry, show their strength, and have the possibility of intensifying the conflict. Although the plan has been made, there are still some concerns.

Lu Su disagreed. He said that whether it was the Wuhuan people or the Xianbei people, they had long been an important source of the Han cavalry. From the eight schools of the previous dynasty to the fifth schools of the present, the Hu cavalry has always been an integral part of the Northern Army. Yuan Shu was the Changshui school lieutenant, and the cavalry in Changshui camp were all Hu people. In the future, the main body of seizing Youzhou and forming cavalry must be Hu people. The distinguishing between the Yi and the Xia people can be used as public opinion to attack opponents, but they cannot be taken seriously.

As for whether the conflict with Yuan Shao will intensify, Lu Su felt it was possible, but he still tended to support Plan B. He believed that at this point, even if Sun Ce wanted to show weakness, it would be useless. Unless you give in to Yuzhou and even the two counties of Lujiang and Jiujiang, Yuan Shao might temporarily slow down and take Gongsun Zan first to solve his worries, but he will make a comeback sooner or later. At that time, there will be no one to restrain Yuan Shao, and the situation will be even worse.

Since this is the case, it is better to use attack instead of defense, push the front to the north of Sui River, fight in Yanzhou and Qingzhou, form an alliance with Gongsun Zan, and attack Yuan Shao, so that he will lose sight of the other side. Youzhou is poor and Gongsun Zan has something to ask for help from others sooner or later, and may agree to Sun Ce's power entering Youzhou.

With the support of Lu Su, Sun Ce became more confident.

Lu Su did not waste time. He quickly handled the housework and picked out three hundred elite soldiers from the department to serve as the guard camp. His father died early, and only his grandmother and mother were at home. The next morning, Lu Su took Sun Ce to visit them. Sun Ce was young and handsome, famous at a young age, polite and considerate. Lu Su's grandmother and mother liked him very much and supported Lu Su to follow Sun Ce.

Sun Ce suggested to Lu Su that it would be better to escort them to Wuhui if there was no peace in the Huai and Si area. The distance was close, so I could send them to Niuzhu or Guangling and hand them over to Chen Dao and Shen You. When you arrive at Wuhui, Yu Fan and Cai Maohui will arrange everything, so Lu Su doesn't have to worry too much.

Lu Su agreed readily. Sun Ce agreed to his position, and sooner or later he would send his family to the Wuhui. This is a conventional rule.

After breakfast, Lu Su followed Sun Ce on the journey.

Bogupi.

Liu He and others set up camp on the side of the pond. After leaving Runan, they learned their lessons and restrained their subordinates as much as possible, not allowing them to plunder. After entering Xia Pi, although there were some oppositions, they did not encounter any refusal. They had food and drink along the way, which was very comfortable.

Chen came to greet him and held a banquet to welcome Liu He and others. He and Chunyu Qiong were old acquaintances, and they were separated until Yuan Shao ran away. After a few years, they met again and they changed a lot. In contrast, Chen was still better. Chen, who was unemployed, had an industry, and even if he didn't have to be an official, he could live a very comfortable life. Chunyu Qiong was much worse. His family moved to Jizhou, without industrial support, and his life was a bit tight. Although he opened a paper shop, the business was not very good, the quality was not as good as Nanyang paper, and the price was relatively high, so he could only do government business and limited sales.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have accepted this mission and went on a battle with two younger generations.

The two soon found a common language. Chen asked Sun Ce about his whereabouts. Chunyu Qiong didn't know that Sun Ce had chased him, but only knew that he was still in Lujiang, so he boasted about it, saying that Sun Ce was so fierce that he was not afraid to fight. Chen had been holding back for several years and finally got the opportunity to vent his resentment. Together with Chunyu Qiong, he scolded Sun Ce for bullying good and being afraid of evil, and only knowing how to use tricks. When he really went to the battlefield, his true colors were revealed and vulnerable.

Chunyu Qiong asked about the situation in Xuzhou. Chen said that Tao Qian was fighting at the border between Langya and Beihai and Qi. The specific location was unknown and he might have entered Mount Tai. The people of Xuzhou were not very concerned about these matters. They did not want to support Tao Qian's battle, but were prepared to welcome Yuan Xi. However, Tao Qian's methods were fierce. Even if the war ahead was tight, he still retained considerable troops in Tan County and was ready to suppress them at any time. The person in charge of Xia Pi was Zhuo Rong.

Zurong was from Danyang and Tao Qian's hometown party. This person originally had hundreds of troops, and Tao Qian assigned him some people to take charge of the transportation of Pengcheng and Guangling. In order to facilitate the uprising, he was appointed as the minister of Xia Pi, traveling between Pengcheng and Guangling. Although this person was not capable, he had many disciples, and those people believed in Buddhism. Zurong held taxes from the three counties and often held Buddhist bathing meetings. Those who participated could eat and drink for free, and gathered to preach the scriptures and preach, which was quite confusing. Not only ordinary people believed in him, but some powerful people were also willing to interact with him and even donated their property to him. Zurong gathered nearly 10,000 people, more than 3,000 horses, and money and supplies were piled up like mountains, filled with nearly 1,000 trucks.

Chunyu Qiong was immediately moved and immediately asked Liu He and Wen Chou to discuss it and suggested attacking Zu Rong.

Liu He was a little hesitant.

His purpose in fighting in Xuzhou was to support Yuan Xi. Since Tao Qian was fighting in the northern part of Langya, he should quickly rush to join the war, fight quickly, repel Tao Qian, and welcome Yuan Xi into the country, rather than intercepting Zu Rong, wasting time and giving Tao Qian a chance to breathe.

But he also knew that Chunyu Qiong and Xun Chen originally planned to enter Lujiang and face Sun Ce, but he and Wen Chou joined forces to reject Chunyu Qiong's plan. Chunyu Qiong had objections to him. If they forcefully oppose this time and inspire conflict, the situation might get out of control. Chunyu Qiong and the Chen brothers had a good relationship, and the Chen family was a large Xia Pi clan, and Chen Deng died at the hands of Sun Ce because of Yuan Shao's affairs. The Chen family had a certain influence in front of Yuan Shao. If they complained to Yuan Shao, it would be very unfavorable to him.

Moreover, after entering Xia Pi, he restricted military discipline and was not allowed to plunder. His subordinates had greater opinions and said a lot of strange things behind their backs. The Wuhuan people and Xianbei people had no military pay when they went to war. They lived on spoils. Not allowed to plunder was to cut off their financial path and affect their morale. He had the opportunity to make a fortune, but he gave up again. Maybe these Hu people were arrogant and refused to listen to his orders again.

When he met a ruthless man like Gongsun Zan, these people dared to rebel if they were forced into a hurry, let alone him. With this batch of property to inspire morale, he might be able to fight back this time and defeat Tao Qian in one go.

After much consideration, Liu He agreed to Chunyu Qiong's suggestion and sent a scout to search for the location of Zu Rong. With Chen's cooperation, Liu He quickly got the news that Zu Rong was in Huaiyin and was not too far from Pugubei.

Liu He no longer hesitated and ordered his raid on Huaiyin, and fought quickly and immediately went north after he succeeded.

Hearing that there is huge wealth for robbery, these three thousand Hu cavalry were immediately excited, everyone was brave and everyone was fighting for the first place. According to the rules of the Hu people, there were more people who arrived first. To deal with these ordinary people, this was not a battle, but a robbery of money, and no one wanted to be taken first by others.

Just as Liu He and others left Pugupi, Sun Ce rushed across the Huai River and arrived at Gaixia.
