Chapter 886: Enemy on the Belly and Back

Chen Xu is back, full of glory and dignity, and returns home.

The entire Chenjia Village was completely boiling.

Although they didn't know what Chen Xu's power was, they looked at the Taishou of Dongjun, and they were all carefully accompanying him, and they could also get a glimpse of the leopard.

Chen Xu is now famous all over the world, but the news of this era is very closed, and Chenjia Village is just an ordinary village, and he doesn't understand Chen Xu's might.

They only know that the Chen family man, who was worried about the livelihood in the village, has grown to a level that is admirable.

Especially those outsiders who later moved to Chenjia Village, as well as the children who were born after Chen Xu left, all looked at Chen Xu with reverence and fear.

It's not because of Chen Xu's pretentious posture, but those black-armored guards who have been in a hundred battles, although they are restrained by Chen Xu, they still make people feel frightened.

In the final analysis, most of the clansmen in Chenjia Village are just the most ordinary people, and they have no knowledge at all.

The remaining elders in the village also came out to greet Chen Xu, and when they saw Chen Xu, their faces also showed irrepressible feelings.

Chen Xu at the beginning was the hope of the entire Chenjia Village, and it was precisely because of Chen Xu's appearance that Chenjia Village would be so prosperous at the beginning.

Just imagine how shocking it is for an ordinary village to be able to build a Wu Fort in the midst of troubled times to defend against bandits and rebels.

Although it has become a thing of the past, and although Chenjia Village has long since declined, the clansmen who have experienced that time miss the glorious years even more.

"Is A-Qing okay now?"

Da Zhuang is obviously older than Chen Xu, but he is not much different from Chen Qing, and the two had a very close relationship at that time.

Therefore, after seeing Chen Xu and Chen Hu, he couldn't help but inquire about Chen Qing's movements.

Chen Hu laughed twice and said, "Ah Qing has also become a general, and now he is leading troops in Chang'an, so he can't get out." ”

"General?"

When Da Zhuang heard this, while he was happy, his eyes were also a little dim.

rejoiced because he was happy for his brother; is gloomy because the two were almost the same at the beginning, but now they are very different.

It's not jealousy, it's just a normal psychological reaction.

"If I could have left with Da Lang at that time, maybe I would have become a general."

Da Zhuang sighed secretly in his heart, and then let out a sigh.

Da Zhuang took the two of them around the village, and soon came to the bottom of a big tree, looking at this tall tree that surpassed Chenjia Village, Chen Hu's eyes were a little confused.

Da Zhuang smiled and said to Chen Hu: "Ah Hu, I still remember that when I was a child, you often bullied Ah Jing. ”

"Later, Ah Jing learned to climb a tree, as long as you bully Ah Jing, he will climb this tree and then hit you with something."

"You and Ah Qing have both become generals, Ah Jing's achievements should be higher."

Da Zhuang's words made Chen Xu and Chen Hu, both of whom had smiles frozen on their faces, and their eyes also showed a heavy look.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Da Zhuang cautiously asked, "What's wrong with Ah Jing?" ”

Chen Xu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Ah Jing died in battle. ”

"Fight, fight, fight to the death!"

Da Zhuang's face was full of disbelief, and he even stammered a little when he spoke.

Chen Hu's face sank like water, and said: "Ah Jing has indeed passed away, but there are tens of thousands of people to bury him, and he will not feel lonely." ”

Feeling the murderous aura in Chen Hu's words, Da Zhuang's heart trembled suddenly. It was only at this time that he felt that the two in front of him were a little strange.

"Da Lang used to be just a civilian, and he could set off a bloody storm in Puyang City, but now he has the power to fight in all directions, and he must have experienced a lot of dangers."

At this time, Da Zhuang looked at the two of them with less intimacy and more fear.

At the end of the day, they have now become people of two worlds.

Even if Chen Xu misses the old feelings and supports the people of Chenjia Village, it is not in one dimension after all.

Thinking of Chen Jing, the atmosphere between the three of them was a little heavy.

Chen Xu just stood quietly under the big tree, wanting to think of Chen Jing's voice and smile in his mind.

However, Chen Jing has been dead for so many years, but time can dilute everything.

Chen Xu was very horrified to find that in his mind, there was no way to completely piece together Chen Jingyin's smile.

"Ah Jing, I'm sorry."

At this time, Chen Xu felt a deep sense of guilt in his heart, and the good mood of returning to his hometown was suddenly invisible.

"Ah Mo!"

Thinking about it, Chen Xu couldn't help but have the shadow of Chen Mo in his mind, this child looked very similar to his father.

"Ah Mo is always just himself, and he can't become the second Ah Jing."

With a deep sigh, Chen Xu finally turned around and left, and Chen Hu was also silent, following closely behind Chen Xu.

Da Zhuang felt that the atmosphere was not quite right, and did not say anything more.

Chenjia Village has changed too much, far from being as prosperous as it used to be, Chen Xu stayed in the village for a long time, and talked cordially with the clansmen one by one.

Not only that, but he also communicated with many children who grew up listening to his stories, and talked to them for a long, long time.

In the end, Chen Xu still left.

He came to Dongjun this time, not to remember the past, but to deter Yuan Tan, and maybe even a big battle with Cao Cao.

He didn't have much energy to relax himself.

However, it was said that Yuan Tan was about to lead the troops to eliminate Yuan Shang, and suddenly got the news that the Guanzhong army had taken Dongjun, and he was immediately shocked.

Yuan Tan listened to Xu You's suggestion and sent Fu Zhi to the north to quell the rebellion, but he himself led a large army and rushed to Yanzhou.

At the same time, the envoys from Jizhou also rushed to Xuzhou, preparing to ask Cao Cao for help.

On the way to lead the army south, Yuan Tan asked with some puzzlement: "Although the Guanzhong army is strong, there are many defenders in Dongjun, why is it so vulnerable?" ”

Guo Tu said: "Chen Wenzhao was originally from Dongjun, and many Dongjun scholars yearn for Chen Wenzhao. ”

"Therefore, when Chen Wenzhao's younger brother led the troops to attack Dongjun, Dongjun Taishou would surrender without a fight."

The Han people have a very strong sense of locality, and although Dongjun has been under the jurisdiction of the Yuan family for so many years, many people in Dongjun have their hearts set on Chen Xu.

They think that once Chen Xu takes Dongjun, as Chen Xu's fellow villagers, as long as they have some talent, they will be reused.

What's more, Yuan Shao has died, although Yuan Tan has taken over the Yuan family's foundation, not many people are optimistic about Yuan Tan.

Whether it is because of the sense of locality, or because of the good birds that choose trees to perch, it is not surprising that the scholars of Dongjun welcomed Chen Hu into the country.

Yuan Tan's eyes showed a look of worry, and said: "Chen Wenzhao's strength is so strong, and the third brother is now rebelling in Youzhou, Gu can't gather all the soldiers and horses to come to fight Chen Wenzhao. ”

"If Yanzhou loses, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Chen Xu is now powerful, and Yuan Shao has fallen into disadvantage in several battles with him, which makes Yuan Tan extremely afraid of Chen Xu.

Xu You pondered for a long time and said: "The lord doesn't need to worry too much, as long as my army arrives in Yanzhou and defends the city, although the Guanzhong army is strong, what can I do?" ”

"What's more, the southern part of Yanzhou is Cao Cao's territory, and Chen Wenzhao is so enthusiastic that it is expected that Cao Mengde will not sit idly by."

"If Cao Mengde leads the troops to help, Chen Wenzhao has nothing to fear."

When Yuan Tan heard this, his face looked much better, and then he urged the army to move forward, wanting to rush to Yanzhou as soon as possible.

However, the army had not yet arrived in Yanzhou, and bad news came from the north.

Yuan Shang was canonized by the Son of Heaven as the pastor of Youzhou, and now his occupation of Youzhou is justified.

In addition, Yuan Shang himself is Yuan Shao's son, and he also received the help of Feng Ji and Trial, and said that the Wuhuan people sent troops to help, and they actually swept the entire Youzhou.

Fu Zhi led the troops to quell the rebellion, but because there were too few soldiers and horses, and there was a lack of cavalry, he was actually led by Yuan Shang Wuhuan cavalry, and suffered several defeats in succession, so he had to lead the army to retreat to the north of Jizhou.

"How so, how so?"

After getting the news, Yuan Tan lost his soul and looked incredulous, and even Xu You's heart was shaken.

He didn't expect that Fu Zhu would actually lose in the hands of Yuan Shang.

It wasn't long before another battle report came from the north, reporting the details of the defeat of the frustrated army.

Even if Yuan Shang said that the Wuhuan people would send troops to help, Fu Zhu still relied on his outstanding talent to stalemate with Yuan Shang, and he was not defeated at all.

Even, Fu Zhu also used the vanguard battalion led by Ju Yi to fight several small victories in the process of fighting with the Wuhuan cavalry.

However, Yuan Shang used high-ranking officials to lure the general Ju Yi to surrender, and the two should cooperate with each other, which made the frustration defeated.

"Ju Yi Pifu, traitor, I swear to kill you!"

Originally, Yuan Tan, Xu You and others were still strange about why they were defeated by Yuan Shang, but after hearing the news of Ju Yi's betrayal, they all suddenly realized.

Ju Yi is definitely the best among the generals of the Yuan family, but he is too arrogant and arrogant, which is not liked by everyone.

After Yuan Tan took charge of Jizhou, many generals were rewarded, but only Ju Yi was ignored.

It wasn't until Yuan Shang rebelled and Yuan Tan wanted to rely on Ju Yi that he rewarded him heavily, and then let Ju Yi follow Fu Zhu and go north to quell the rebellion together.

It's just that Ju Yi has long been extremely disappointed in Yuan Tan, even if he finally got the reward, Ju Yi has already had a problem with Yuan Tan in his heart.

The judge knew Ju Yi's situation, and after being defeated by Xian Dengying for a few games, he offered Yuan Shang a plan to lure Ju Yi to surrender.

This strategy really worked, and it also laid a solid foundation for Yuan Shang to seize the entire Youzhou.

Yuan Tan had a look of horror on his face, if Yuan Shang was allowed to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou, he would definitely have Longwangshu and once again wave his troops south to attack Jizhou.

More importantly, Chen Xu is attacking Yanzhou, Wang Yan is also eyeing Jizhou, and Yuan Tan is now under attack, and the situation is quite unfavorable for him.

Putting his eyes on Xu You, Yuan Tan looked expectant and said, "For the current situation, Mr. has a plan to teach me." ”

Xu You's brows furrowed tightly, and finally he had to say helplessly: "The lord only needs to trust the prince." ”

Xu You doesn't have a good plan now, so he can only pin his hopes on Fu Zhi, hoping that Fu Zhu can stabilize the situation in the north.
