Curling his lips, Yuan Ji continued to suppress the bandits.
At the same time, Yuan Shu and others had also arrived with their troops and joined the battle. Seeing that their leader was killed and supported by a large number of officers and soldiers, the bandits in the fort suddenly panicked like headless flies.
"Don't leave any of these bandits behind! Also, hurry up and save people."
Yuan Shu gave the order, and his soldiers swarmed forward, and the bandits were wiped out like they were chopping melons and vegetables.
As for Xu Chu, after he killed the bandits around him, he saw reinforcements coming to help, and when he looked at the corpses of women, children, old and young in the fort, his eyes shed tears. Putting down the weapon in his hand, he slowly walked up to Yuan Shu, knelt down on his knees and kowtowed three times in a row!
"My benefactor is so kind and virtuous that he saved the lives of hundreds of people in Xujiabao. I promise Chu and Xu Zhongkang that I am willing to work for my benefactor as an ox and a horse to repay my great kindness."
Xu Chu's behavior made Yuan Shu a little stunned. He quickly got off his horse and helped Xu Chu up.
"I have long heard that Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang from Qiao County were brave enough to be defeated by ten thousand men. When I saw him today, Zhongkang's reputation was well-deserved!
The legitimate son of a certain Sikong Yuan Feng, Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongzhi. When I was on my way to Luoyang to take up my post, I heard that bandits wanted to persecute the villagers of Xujiabao. I was filled with righteous indignation, so I led the county soldiers to come to support..."
While Yuan Shu praised Xu Chu, he also introduced his identity. When Xu Chu heard that in front of him was the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third prince, Yuan Shu, the legitimate son of Sikong at that time, he immediately kowtowed again to show respect.
"Zhongkang, please get up quickly..."
Yuan Shu, who helped Xu Chu up again, asked Xu Chu to take care of the villagers in the fort first, while he and others cleaned the battlefield and went to Qiao County to transport wounded medicine.
With everyone's busy work, all the injured villagers in the village had their wounds bandaged and received better treatment, and Yuan Shu also extended an olive branch to Xu Chu.
"Zhongkang wants to settle the villagers first, and then rush to Luoyang to join you when his brother comes back.
I hope you won’t give up..."
Seeing that he had accepted Xu Chu's heart, Yuan Shu said nothing more and prepared to continue on his way.
But when he heard Xu Chu said that he would wait for his brother to come back, Yuan Shu became curious.
"Zhongkang, is your brother Xu Ding?"
Seeing that Yuan Shu knew his brother, Xu Chu nodded.
"My brother is Xu Ding. Does your Excellency know him?"
Yuan Shu shook his head and smiled without saying a word. He neither said that he knew him nor said that he didn't know him. He just said to Xu Chu with sincerity.
"Zhongkang, if your brother comes back, you can ask him to lead all the villagers in the fort to Runan County to find Yuan. Just say it is my arrangement. There will be arrangements during the introduction..."
Now that Xu Chu has been taken in, he might as well take in his brother Xu Ding. I just don’t know if I have this fate with Xu Ding!
Yuan Shu and his party said goodbye to Xu Chu and continued on their way.
After flipping through the map, Yuan Shu noticed the nearby Chenliu County, which was a good place. Chen Gong first served as an official here, as well as Gao Gan, Dian Wei and others.
Let’s try our luck this time and see if we can get a few talents back!
"I've heard for a long time that Chen Liu is very talented. Let's go see him."
Yuan Shu led everyone to the northeast and rushed to Chenliu County.
The group of people passed through a mountain on the way. Only by climbing over this mountain can they reach Chenliu County. They saw that the mountain was overgrown with weeds, lush trees, and gurgling streams. A beautiful scenery came into view. Just as everyone was intoxicated by the mountains and rivers, I just heard a tiger roar coming from the mountain!
A colorful giant tiger flew directly over the mountain stream and jumped in front of the group. After looking at Yuan Shu and his group, it roared and fled in one direction.
The next person was a tall and burly man with dark skin, also crossing the mountain stream, chasing the beautiful tiger.
After glancing at Yuan Shu and his party, he quickened his pace to catch up with the giant tiger. It ran barefoot like a scud, and disappeared in a few seconds.
This sudden situation shocked Yuan Shu and his party. Everyone was ready to deal with the colorful tiger, but they didn't expect that the tiger ran away. Not only did it run away, but there was also a big man chasing it. !
When did tigers become so afraid of people?
Everyone marveled, but Yuan Shu fell into deep thought. Chen Liu, the mountain, the giant tiger, chased...
This person must be Dian Wei.
He is known as Ma Xia Dian Wei. Comparing him with Lu Bu, it can be seen that his military strength is not outstanding. How could he let such a great talent go?
"Turn around! Go find that man. He has the ability to scare a tiger into submission. His ability must be quite impressive."
I saw Yuan Shu signaling to Yuan Ji, Ji Ling and Yuchi Gong beside him, and then turned around and rushed towards the place where Dian Wei disappeared.
"You big bug, you still dare to escape? Die for me, see if I don't peel off your skin..."
"Is that Brother Dianwei in front of you?"
As soon as Yuan Shu and his party came out of the dense forest, they saw that Dianwei had restrained the colorful tiger and was about to skin and cut the flesh...
So Yuan Shu greeted Dian Wei and tested him.
"Huh? Who are you? Yes, I am Dian Wei. I don't want to change my name, and I don't want to change my surname!"
Dian Wei said carelessly, but at the same time his eyes were slightly wary.
"I have heard about Chen Liu Dianwei's name for a long time. Today I see Brother Dianwei's ability to subdue a tiger. I really admire him."
Everyone likes to hear good things, and Dian Wei is no exception. After hearing Yuan Shu's praise, Dian Wei relaxed his vigilance towards Yuan Shu and his party.
"I wonder why Brother Dian Wei is chasing this tiger..."
Yuan Shu came directly to ask the third company, why are you looking for tigers? Why are you looking for a tiger? Why don't you stay at home?
"Well, to tell you the truth, brother, I killed a bully and fled here. Because I was hungry, I thought of killing a big insect to fill my stomach and use its fur to make clothes..."
Dian Wei told Yuan Shu his experience, shaking his head and sighing.
"Oh? Bully? Brother Dianwei, can you tell me what this bully is like and where he comes from? And..."
Yuan Shu has a little memory of this bully. With his Yuan family's strength, it should be possible to eliminate Dian Wei's wanted order.
"Well, I am originally from Jiwu County, but there is a bully named Li in our county. He relies on his wealth and connections with the government to do evil and wantonly in the county.
This bully was robbing a girl on the street. When I saw it, I was so angry that I chopped off his head with a knife and killed all the losers around him...
The government wanted me, so I had no choice but to hide in the mountains. I feel sorry for my old mother and brother..."
When it came to the emotional part, Dian Wei burst into tears and started sobbing.
"Hahaha! Brother Dianwei, don't panic, I can help you cancel this wanted order, just don't worry."
Yuan Shu laughed loudly, and then whispered a few words to Ji Ling beside him. Ji Ling said goodbye and left, rushing towards Chenliu County.
