    "Damn, fake emperor!"

    Gongsun Zan looked envious in his heart, but he still had an angry look on his face: "Why don't you stop your arrogant behavior quickly?"

    "Haha, I am the emperor. When you see me, kneel down and surrender immediately. I will spare your life and even make you rich and prosperous for the rest of your life." Yuan Shu stood up and said proudly to Gongsun Zan.

    "Dream!"

    Gongsun Zan shouted angrily. If he dared to surrender to Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, and Liu Zhe, they would definitely attack Xuzhou immediately.

    As for why Yuan Shu was able to dominate in Shouchun for so long, it was because Cao Cao used the excuse of sending troops to attack Yuan Shu to attack the people around him one after another, thus giving Yuan Shu a chance to linger in Shouchun.

    Gongsun Zan also wanted to send troops to deal with Yuan Shu before, so as to gain some benefits, but Cao Cao's actions made him dare not mess around. He was afraid that if he sent troops, Cao Cao would raid his hometown.

    As for this time, he had to send troops, and Yuan Shu came to attack him. If he remained indifferent, he would not have to mess around in the future.  Even if he sent troops this time, he still left a large army to guard against Cao Cao to prevent himself from becoming the second Zhang Xiu or Liu Bei.

    "I'm telling you, if you don't retreat, don't blame me for being rude."

    Gongsun Zan shouted angrily at Yuan Shu. Gongsun Zan did not want to fight Yuan Shu here. Even if he won, with his current strength, he would not be able to swallow up Shouchun. Instead, he might become a wedding dress.

    If Yuan Shu can take the initiative to retreat, it will be a great thing for Gongsun Zan.

    "It's not impossible if you want me to return to Shouchun."

    Originally, Gongsun Zan thought it would not be that easy. He didn't arrive first. As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shu spoke up, but he had conditions. He said shockingly: "If you want me to return to Shouchun, you need to pay tribute to me."  Ten thousand war horses, three hundred thousand bushels of grain and grass, and one hundred beauties.¡±

    "What?"

    Gongsun Zan was furious after hearing this. What is the difference between this and robbery?

    When Gongsun Zan heard this, he still didn¡¯t understand that Yuan Shu was here to blackmail him.

    Shouchun is located near Xuzhou. Gongsun Zan knows more about Shouchun than others.

    If you use this word to describe the current situation in Shouchun, it would be terrible.

    When Yuan Shu established himself as emperor, he did not consider the people under his rule at all. He only cared about his own enjoyment and did not care about the life and death of the people under his rule.

    Excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes were imposed on the people, which made the people miserable. Many people fled Shouchun. Once there were fewer people, many things could not be done.

    Yuan Shu was domineering in Shouchun, and all kinds of enjoyment, food, clothing, and use were of the best. It was impossible for Shouchun to support Yuan Shu's extravagant and lewd life.

    As time went by, problems began to arise. In addition to the people fleeing everywhere, various natural disasters also came one after another. I don¡¯t know if God was punishing Yuan Shu for his retrograde behavior. Shouchun has been from Yuan Shu becoming emperor to now.  , all kinds of heavy rain and snow continued to appear, making the people of Shouchun even more miserable, and there were even tragic scenes of cannibalism in some places.

    The people down there are so miserable, how can there be any extra supplies for Yuan Shu to eat, drink and have fun.  Yuan Shu was so hungry that his quality of life suddenly dropped.

    However, Yuan Shu ignored it and had no sympathy for the miserable suffering of the people below. Instead, he intensified his efforts and continued to increase taxes, making the people even more miserable.

    While squeezing the people below, Yuan Shu also targeted the officials who supported him. He had already confiscated several officials, but Yuan Shu didn't confiscate too many, so he turned his attention to Xuzhou.

    Shouchun borders Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou, which are the territories of Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao, and Sun Ce respectively.

    Yuzhou is Cao Cao's territory. Cao Cao defeated Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei and was very powerful. Yuan Shu is not an idiot. In addition, he was friends with Cao Cao in the past. He still knows how much Cao Cao has, so naturally he will not provoke him.

    And Yangzhou is Sun Ce¡¯s place, and he used to be Yuan Shu¡¯s subordinate. Yuan Shu also knows about Sun Ce¡¯s strength.

    As for Xuzhou, Gongsun Zan¡¯s territory.  Just as Gongsun Zan knew more information about Shouchun, Yuan Shu also knew more information about Xuzhou, and Yuan Shu also knew about Gongsun Xu's attack.

    But Gongsun Xu was attacked, and Gongsun Zan failed to seek justice for his son.  In Yuan Shu's view, this was a coward's behavior.  Yuan Shu's son was bullied, so he proclaimed himself emperor and made his son the prince.

    Yuan Shu felt that his behavior was a heroic act, so as a hero, Yuan Shu felt that he was fully qualified to despise Gongsun Zan, a coward.

    ?Yuan Shu counted around and found that Gongsun Zan was the best to bully, so he mobilized all his troops to attack Xuzhou.

    Yuan Shu didn't think Gongsun Zan dared to resist him. He felt that once his army arrived, Gongsun Zan would definitely accept his conditions and would not dare to disobey.

    At this time, when Yuan Shu made his request, Gongsun Zan was furious. He glared at Yuan Shu and asked, "Do you really think I am easy to bully?"

    "roll!"

    Gongsun Zan angrily scolded Yuan Shu.

    "Don't toast or drink as a penalty."

    Yuan Shu was also furious when he heard this.

    Since he became emperor, no one has dared to speak to him like this. Anyone who speaks to him in this way is already dead.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
