Chapter 411: Three Tricks
Yuan Shao, who was originally slowly marching behind, desperately urged his soldiers to speed up after receiving huge losses from the three forwards. However, no matter how fast it is, it can't change anything, and by the time Yuan Shao and Zhang He converge, Liu Yu's army has already run out. And Zhang He and the three knelt directly in front of Yuan Shao, claiming to be a capital crime.
Yuan Shao looked at the fire that had just been extinguished, the green smoke had not yet dispersed, the soldiers in the army were all discouraged, and there were many who were killed, burned, wounded but not dead, the whole picture was very tragic.
Yuan Shao suddenly felt a heartache, is this his Yuan Yuan's original army?
"How much have you lost?" Yuan Shao endured his heartache and said coldly.
The three of them didn't dare to reply, they were afraid that if they said it, Yuan Shao would cut them.
"It's all dumb! Say! The silent response could only provoke Yuan Shao's anger.
Zhang He and Gao Gan both looked at Yan Liang pitifully, Yan Liang was the oldest of the three, and he would be better off when he went out. Yan Liang knew the thoughts of the other two, and at the moment, he was the only one who could speak in front of Yuan Shao, and said boldly: "The last general is incompetent, and the specific losses have not been counted." But it shouldn't be below 20,000. β
Yuan Shao covered his chest in pain after hearing this, and lost 20,000 soldiers and horses, which is a huge number, and his total this time was only 150,000, and he lost one-seventh of it at once.
Yuan Shao tried his best to calm down, and kept telling himself in his heart that these were his generals, not pigs, and they couldn't be killed!
Yuan Shao took a deep breath, finally suppressed his anger, and said: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, you should pay more attention to it, and don't be plotted by Liu Yu again." β
The three of them immediately knew that they had escaped, and hurriedly bowed gratefully and said, "Thank you for the grace of the lord not to kill." β
When Yuan Shao was about to order his subordinates to set up camp, a loud laugh came.
When Yuan Shao heard this, he scolded: "It's Liu Boxuan's voice!" β
Yuan Shao took all the generals to a cliff with the sound, and Liu Yu took Dian Wei and others to stand on the cliff.
"Brother Benchu, you are indeed here. I miss you so much. Liu Yu said to Yuan Shao with an iron horn.
Except for Yuan Shao, everyone else was suppressed, why was Liu Yu's voice so loud?
Yuan Shao didn't think so, when he was crusading against Dong Zhuo, Liu Yu's subordinate general Dian Wei scolded Dong Zhuo with the things in Liu Yu's hand now, and Yuan Shao had experienced it at that time.
Yuan Shao scolded Liu Yu: "Shameless treacherous man, you are still the prince of the Han Dynasty, and you use some conspiracies and tricks!" I'm ashamed to know you! β
Liu Yu laughed and said, "Originally, your head grew on your ass." Haven't you heard the phrase that soldiers don't get tired of cheating? β
Yuan Shao didn't expect Liu Yu to speak so rudely, and a high-quality person like him wouldn't talk nonsense with Liu Yu anymore, and said, "Liu Yu, don't talk nonsense." Now it's time for the soldiers to meet each other, and they will die and die. β
Liu Yu said in admiration: "Brother Ben Chu is really a hero, and this king is ashamed of himself. β
Yuan Shao pouted at Yan Liang next to him, Yan Liang's eyes flashed, and he quietly said a few words in the ears of the pro-soldiers, and the pro-soldiers immediately went down to make arrangements.
"I, Yuan Shao, the fourth and third dukes, have protΓ©gΓ©s and old officials all over the world. What you can compare. You, Liu Yu, are the prince of the Han Dynasty, but you attacked the imperial city first and threatened the Son of Heaven. After that, he invaded Jizhou for no reason. The thickest skinned person in the world is none other than you Liu Yu. In order to delay some time, Yuan Shao kept sarcastically mocking Liu Yu.
Liu Yu saw everything just now and knew what Yuan Shao was thinking, but Liu Yu didn't care, he also had similar plans.
Liu Yu pretended to say: "Brother Ben Chu is powerful, your Yuan family is powerful!" I just don't know what happened to Yuan Highway, do you remember? β
Yuan Shao was speechless for a while, Yuan Shu was a pitfall, and half of the Yuan family's strength was wasted, if the entire Yuan family supported him Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao would not have to struggle so much now, being bullied by Liu Yu like this.
"Okay, this king won't talk nonsense with you anymore. A big gift before leaving! Shoot the arrows! Liu Yu waved his hand, and a large number of archers appeared behind him, shooting at Yuan Shao.
"Be careful, lord!" Yan Liang and other generals hurriedly helped Yuan Shaoge block the feather arrows.
Yuan Shao's soldiers were not so lucky, and many of them fell to the ground with arrows.
"Liu Yu, you damn it!" Yuan Shao roared angrily.
"Haha, Yuan Benchu, this king is waiting for you in Julu City!" Liu Yu has disappeared into the cliff, leaving only this one sentence.
Zhang He and the others felt that Yuan Shao had been insulted and shouted to hunt down Liu Yu.
"Stop chasing, set up camp first!" Yuan Shao calmed down and stopped them.
Yuan Shao calmly saved his soldiers in a timely manner, because Liu Yu had prepared an ambush on it, but he waited left and right without waiting for Yuan Jun's figure.
Liu Yu, who had been waiting for a long time, found that Yuan Shao had shrunk his forces and retreated to the camp, and even increased his defense to prevent Liu Yu from attacking suddenly.
"Let's go." Liu Yu suddenly felt bored.
Yuan Shao and the others returned to the rebuilt tent, and it was already late. The soldiers began to cook and were ready to rest.
After a day of tossing, everything was tired. Yuan Shao ate a trench and grew wise, arranged the troops to inspect, and then came to the Chinese army's big tent with his henchmen to discuss important military matters.
Yuan Shao and his advisers were not incompetent, and they knew from today's lesson that Liu Yu wanted to weaken Yuan Shao's army through constant harassment and attacks. After a detailed count, Yuan Shao lost a total of nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses this time, a large part of which were wounded soldiers and could not afford to continue the battle.
Yuan Shao's three-way parallel advance in the early stage was wrong, giving Liu Yu the opportunity to break through one by one. Yuan Shao decided that this time he must not disperse his forces again, and the narrow terrain has passed, and now the road section nearly thirty miles away from Julu is relatively wide, which can accommodate a large army to march together.
Yuan Shao planned to rest for a good night, and wipe out Liu Yu with his army early tomorrow morning.
Yuan Shao and the others ate some barbecue meat at random to satisfy their hunger, and then fell asleep, he was also tired.
Early the next morning, Yuan Shao, who was still asleep, was woken up by Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou looked flustered and said: "Lord, many of the officers and soldiers of our army have foamed at the mouth, vomited up and down, and they seem to be poisoned. β
"What?!" Yuan Shao didn't wear any clothes, so he ran out of the big tent. As soon as I came out, I saw a large number of soldiers vomiting and diarrhea, and at a glance, I knew that they had eaten something unclean.
"What's going on! This looks like eating something poisonous. Where is the matching? Yuan Shao shouted.
"Meet my lord." The judge was the person in charge of the grain and grass for this expedition, and he heard Yuan Shao's call and hurriedly ran over.
Yuan Shao grabbed him and asked angrily, "The whole army has been poisoned." How do you arrange the food and grass? Come! Push it out and cut it. β
With so many people in the whole army poisoned, what else did he talk about attacking Liu Yu, it would be good if Liu Yu didn't catch the opportunity to destroy it.
"My lord spares his life. I really don't know why. "The judge was in a cold sweat and begged for mercy frantically, he was really innocent. He didn't want that either.
Guo Tu, who was not far away, looked at this posture and said to himself: "You also have today." β
Guo Tu planned to continue to watch the show, but there was a person who interrupted Guo Tu's beautiful thoughts.
Feng Ji rushed to hear the news and said, "Lord, I know what the reason is." This matter has nothing to do with Jeongnam. β
"What's going on here?" Yuan Shao put down the trial, and the trial breathed a sigh of relief.
Feng Ji hurriedly explained: "Last night, the soldiers buried the pot to cook, and the water used was water from the river. I just checked that the upper reaches of the river were filled with all kinds of poisonous substances, so the soldiers used poisonous water for cooking. β
Needless to say, Yuan Shao knew who poisoned the upstream, and there was no one except Liu Yu.
Fortunately, the core leaders of Yuan Jun are not eating in the same pot as the soldiers, otherwise Yuan Shao would be crying now.
"Shameless! Liu Yu, I've never seen someone as shameless as you. Yuan Shao looked up to the sky and sighed!
"My lord, there is one more thing. Our war horses were also poisoned, and many of them simply could not stand up. After a closer inspection, it was found that someone had poisoned the grass, and there were many other places. The poisoner was so secretive that the soldiers could not find out about it, and they were plotted. Feng Ji added another sentence.
Needless to say, this was also done by Liu Yu.
"Quick, hurry up and organize troops to defend. Liu Yu will definitely attack. Yuan Shao panicked, the soldiers and horses were poisoned, and in such a dangerous situation, he was afraid that Liu Yu would suddenly attack.
"Don't worry! We have already arranged for the soldiers who have not been poisoned to be prepared for strict defense. In addition, a large number of scouts had been arranged within ten miles of the camp tent, which would definitely prevent Liu Yu's sudden attack. Yan Liang replied immediately. As early as when he discovered the poisoning of the soldiers, Yan Liangwen Chou realized the seriousness of the problem, and there was no need for Yuan Shao to tell them that they had already arranged for some soldiers to defend outside the camp tent.
"Okay, I'll rest assured that you can do something." Yuan Shao saw that Yan Liang had already prepared, and he felt a lot more relieved.
"My lord, although the soldiers and horses are poisoned. But it's not very poisonous. The military medicine practitioner said that as long as the medicinal materials are sufficient, it will not take a day or two to recover. Healers are treating soldiers, and many are slowly recovering. Due to the large number of people and the large shortage of medicinal materials, General Zhang He has been arranged to go back to prepare relevant medicinal materials. Feng Ji immediately reported his work.
"Well, Yuan Tu is far-sighted, and General Ben is a lot more relieved." Yuan Shao relaxed a lot.
"Report! Returning to the lord, Liu Yu led the army to appear ten miles away. One of the scout cavalry said as he sped over.
Feng Ji and the others were stunned for a while, but the most feared thing still happened.
"Damn Liu Yu! It's just a mess! Yuan Shao scolded. Bring me my armor and sword! β
