"… Moreover, according to reliable sources, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao may have already reached some sort of agreement and are likely to jointly target our Qing Province and Yan Province. This is also the main reason why we haven't acted rashly in the short term …"
Following Sun Qian's explanation, the current situation of the game gradually appeared. The sudden change in the plot greatly exceeded Yang Rui's expectations.
Moreover, Yang Rui also gradually understood that the situation that he did not want to see the most had happened. To a large extent, the players of the Outlander Tournament had to exclude most of the mainstream players to ensure the smooth progression of the game's plot.
This had already been shown when Yang Rui accidentally left the Outlander Realm. At that time, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Liu Dai, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and other forces had already begun to stir. However, Yang Rui's unexpected return had disrupted the situation.
At this time, Cao Cao in the South had indeed erupted again. He attacked Xu Province in the name of avenging his father. In the process, he killed Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao who went to help him, eliminating the forces of the two who should have been eliminated long ago. At the same time, he also caused the alliance that Yang Rui spared no effort to build to collapse by more than half.
This was what made Yang Rui the most angry. Originally, Yang Rui thought that through various designs and maintenance, Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao had basically escaped the fate of history. He did not expect the system to set a trap for him here.
Hearing this, Yang Rui was naturally angry at Cao Cao's actions. Moreover, he was determined to retaliate. It was not impossible for him to directly destroy Cao Cao's forces. At the same time, Yang Rui was also speechless at the game system's methods.
The disappearance of Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao did not simply cause Yang Rui to lose two allies. It basically indicated the direction of the system. It seemed that it was going to follow the path of history until nightfall.
Then, the problem also pointed to a new force like Yang Rui. Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao, who should not have existed, were mercilessly eliminated by the system. Then, would a new force like Yang Rui suffer the same fate?
"Hmph!"
The more Yang Rui heard, the angrier he became. He could not help but snort coldly. His right hand had already reached for the nameless three-foot sword at his waist.
Today, how could Yang Rui be an existence that could be trampled on? Even if the wheel of history rolled on, he was not afraid to fight with it.. Yang Rui had experienced real life and death in his previous life. Why would he be afraid of the challenge in the game now?
"Husband …"
"Lord Prefecture Overseer, please calm down. Let Sun Qian finish …"
..... "
...
Zhang Ning's soft call pulled Yang Rui's thoughts back to reality. Sun Qian and the others noticed the hostility on Yang Rui's body and also spoke out to persuade him. Gao Shun, Guo Jia, Xu You, Dian Wei, and Yu Jin, who were originally by Yang Rui's side, also tried to persuade him. Only then did Yang Rui's right hand, which was originally holding the sword, move away from the hilt.
Looking at Zhang Ning's tall waist, looking at Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and the other historical figures who had submitted to him, looking at Sun Qian and the others who had gathered around him, Yang Rui felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
Yang Rui suddenly realized. At this time, he was shouldering too many things, and at the same time, he had gathered enough power. How could he be compared to Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao? The anger and worry just now were just him belittling himself.
From this moment on, Yang Rui's understanding of the game and himself became much clearer. Whether it was the game or reality, he was starting from scratch. Perhaps he wasn't sure what level he could reach, but he was no longer afraid of any challenge.
"Lord Prefecture Overseer, although Qingzhou and Yanzhou are under threat from the Northern and Southern Cao and Yuan families, and Lu Bu and the other rascals are following suit. It seems that they are in cahoots with Cao and Yuan, but Cao and Yuan did not dare to make any blatant moves.
"After Governor Qiao Mao and Governor Ding Yuan were killed, Cao Cao specially sent an envoy to Qingzhou to ask for forgiveness. He said that killing the two was because he was caught off guard and had no other choice.
Moreover, after losing the control of Governor Qiao Mao and Governor Ding Yuan, Cao Cao did not occupy Yanzhou as before. Obviously, he did not dare to face me head-on. At this time, Zhong De has already led 400,000 troops to control Yanzhou and is already in control of the situation.
"Although the Northern Yuan Shao seems to have stationed a lot of troops at the border, most of them are just for show. Their main intention is to cooperate with Cao Cao. They are restricting our forces and at the same time creating conditions for them to attack Youzhou.
"At this time, General Taishi Ci has already commanded the warships and water soldiers to the Yellow River and Ji River, stopping Yuan Shao's troops at any time. Zhang Liao, Chen Lin, Liu Ba, and Wu 'an are still stationed in the Eastern County. If we go north, we can attack Ji Province, if we go south, we can attack Chen Liu. In the plains and the Bohai Sea, Du Yang, Han Fu, and Han Hao can also be mobilized at any time … "
Under Yang Rui's instructions, Cheng Yu made a more in-depth analysis of the current situation in Qingzhou and Yanzhou. From this, it could be seen that although Yang Rui was facing a complicated situation, he had not lost the initiative. As long as Yang Rui gave the order, he would be able to deal a fierce blow to the enemy!
"Husband, you must be tired after so many months. Please rest for a while before discussing this matter. This concubine has something to report …"
When he heard this, Yang Rui already had an idea in his heart. Just as he was about to make a decision, he saw Zhang Ning, who was beside him, gently tug at the corner of Yang Rui's clothes and whispered to him.
At this time, Zhang Ning no longer had the shyness she had when they first met. Yang Rui saw that her words were serious and knew that Zhang Ning must have something to say.
At the same time, although Yang Rui had calmed down and had a general direction of action, there were still some details that he had not figured out. Thus, he had the soldiers with him rest in Linzi City while he and Zhang Ning went to the inner mansion.
"Husband, please forgive Zhang Ning for delaying husband's important matters at such an important time. However, what Zhang Ning said is related to the matter of Lady Junhe and sister-in-law. At this time, I have no choice but to say it. Husband, please forgive me …"
Zhang Ning originally had a gentle and quiet personality. At this time, she had become Yang Rui's first destined wife and was pregnant with Yang Rui's child. She was even more considerate as a wife. On the way to the inner mansion, Zhang Ning had already explained the matter in detail.
The matter that Zhang Ning said was related to Ren Sisi and Xiaohui. Yang Rui couldn't help but be alert. The Lady Junhe she mentioned was Ren Sisi, and the sister-in-law was naturally Xiaohui.
The troublesome matters had actually come together! After Zhang Ning told Yang Rui, he found out that Ren Sisi and Xiaohui had not appeared for more than a month!
