There was nothing wrong with the analysis of frustration, the two sides raised troops and converged, and Cao Cao's news was sent, just enough to decide whether to fight.

Yuan Shao was originally a hesitant character, but he had no choice at the moment, either to fight, or to wait for Li Huiyi to start a war, and to fight left and right, it was better to make up his mind to fight to the death.

The best result was that Li Huiyi put the battlefield at Cao Cao's place, so that he could take advantage of it.

"Okay, in that case, how about the army set off in ten days?" Yuan Shao thought for a while and made up his mind to adopt the words of frustration.

Fu Zhu smiled and said: "This is very good, as long as the army arrives, then Li Huiyi wants to start a war, he will have to face a two-front battle, and even if the attack is unfavorable, the delay can drag him down." ”

Although Fu Zhu thought well, there was one thing he didn't say, and that was whether they could hold or defeat Li Jun.

This kind of frustrating words, Fu Zhi would definitely not say it at this time, disturbing Yuan Shao's determination to start a war, and the two discussed secretly for a long time before they dispersed.

Li Huiyi's move touched the hearts of most of the princes in the world, and the news spread for a while, and soldiers and horses were frequently mobilized from all over the country, looking like they were ready to meet the big war.

Ma Chao met Cao Cao's envoy and also acted quickly, but in just five days, he gathered 60,000 Xiliang elites and waited for Han Sui to come to converge.

And Han Sui wanted to say one thing and do another, but this time it was Cao Cao's left and right arms Xun You, who was so easy to fool.

As soon as Xun You came, he directly pointed out his intentions, either sending troops to rush to the battlefield with Ma Chao, or waiting for the two sides to work together to exterminate him in Xiliang first, so as to prevent future troubles.

Seeing Xun You's tough words, Han Sui knew that if he made a small move at this time, he was afraid that he would really be destroyed by Cao Cao and Ma Chao.

Since the reality is powerless to resist, Han Sui can only compromise all the way, and explain that his son-in-law Yan Xing is stationed in the base camp, and he is ready to gather the army and set off.

But Xun You had a sudden plan on the road, wanting to borrow the prestige of Ma and Han in the Qiang tribe and seconding some soldiers and horses from the Qiang tribe.

Han Sui learned of Xun You's intentions and agreed, after all, the army was transferred, and if he could persuade the Qiang people to send troops, he could also ensure the stability of the rear.

Xun You had already planned, and when Han Sui came to the territory of the Qiang people, he said that the Qiang people were mobilized to send troops in a few words and some verbal promises.

The Qiang tribe sent 20,000 Jingzhuang to join Han Sui, and the two sides raised a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, and they joined Ma Chao in a mighty way.

The Xiliang army raised 110,000 troops at once, and this news was like dropping a bomb in the calm deep water, which made the whole situation boil at once, and the news flew all over the sky.

The princes knew that Cao Cao had made up his mind this time and must divide the victory with Li Huiyi, and judging from the situation alone, Li Huiyi did not have much advantage.

And to learn this news, Yuan Shao is the happiest, the stronger Cao Cao is, the more he can involve Li Huiyi's main force, so that he can take the initiative in the Qingzhou situation.

Yuan Shao had arrived at the front line in Qingzhou at this time, and Yuan Shu's tens of thousands of troops converged, since Cao Cao had transferred troops and horses to Xiliang, then the second Yuan did not stop, and immediately set off to Donglai, the border county of Qingzhou.

As soon as the two Yuan soldiers and horses moved, Xu Shu got the news in less than a day, and immediately summoned his subordinates and others to discuss the matter of meeting the enemy.

The small town of Huangxian County, as Xu Shu's temporary headquarters, has been heavily guarded at this time, especially in military camps and other places.

Because there were not so many soldiers and horses stationed in the city, Xu Shu arranged for soldiers to be stationed outside the city, and he often lived in the barracks to deal with some political affairs.

At this time, the commander tent of the large camp outside the city, Xu Shu and Li Shu sat on the top, and the rest of the generals sat on both sides.

Xu Shu saw that everyone had arrived, and he didn't talk much nonsense, so he said directly: "Everyone, I originally wanted to wait until the spring of next year, but now according to reliable information, Er Yuan has raised 80,000 troops to kill, so you can take the idea." ”

Xu Shu has been promoted to Li Huiyi, and he has made little credit, so he generally listens to the opinions of the people below, unless it is a critical moment.

As Xu Shu's deputy, Li Yong naturally took the lead, and was the first to stand up and said: "Lord Xu, since Er Yuan has sent troops, then our army must also take the initiative to attack, otherwise the war will burn into the territory, and I am afraid that it will cause panic among the people." ”

Xu Shu nodded and said: "What Changyun said is right, but our army responded to the battle in a hurry, and you are new to take over the affairs of the army. ”

If Qingzhou loses the battle situation, then not to mention that all Li Huiyi's plans have failed, at least half of them have failed, which is very unfavorable to the plan set.

Zhu Da is more straightforward, although Xu Shu has explained the harm, he still stood up without hesitation and said: "Lord Xu, I am not an infantry captain, I have not made an inch, I am willing to take over the first battle, and if I lose, I will see you." ”

Seeing that Zhu Da was so confident, Xu Shu was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Okay, if General Zhu can win the first battle, Shu will personally ask the lord for credit." ”

Zhu Da clenched his fists and said: "Thank you, my lord, I will not fail in my mission." ”

Xu Shu's face was straight, and he said loudly: "Wang Hu and Zhao Ban, order the two of you to lead the two regiments of the Qinglong Army, open the road first, Zhu Da leads the three regiments to follow, if you encounter the Yuan army, immediately set up camp, and the Yuan army is not allowed to break through the defense line for half a step, waiting for the follow-up army to follow." ”

"Yes, no general."

"Yes, no general."

"Yes, no general."

The three of them had to make the meteor stride away, Xu Shu looked at the rest of the people and said: "As soon as this battle starts, I'm afraid it won't stop, and I will wait for ten days, and the whole army will be ready to go." ”

"Yes."

"Yes."

……

The two people named by Xu Shu just now have almost subdued their subordinates, and the rest of them are worse, so they will be given another ten days.

After Xu Shu finished speaking, he glanced at Li Yong and said slowly: "Does Changyun want to sit in the rear, or go to the front line?" ”

As a newcomer, he is naturally eager to make meritorious contributions, Li Yong said respectfully: "Lord Xu, I am willing to lead the army in the front, and I really dare not be in the rear. ”

"Hmm." Xu Shu nodded slightly and said: "Okay, give you the five hundred divine machine battalion, led by you, to deal with Zhu Da and others, remember not to rush out as a last resort, as long as Zhu Da and others stabilize the situation, you will have a stroke on the credit." ”

The Shenji Battalion is the key to winning by surprise, and Xu Shu is naturally reluctant to use it early, but the first battle is also crucial, so he has to prepare an extra backup strategy.

At this time, Li Shu, who had not spoken for a long time, said: "Lord Xu, joining the army, Li Shu is willing to follow Lord Li and his party and watch the battle." ”

Xu Shu's eyebrows jumped slightly, this Li Shu has rarely spoken since he set off, how can he think of this today.

Seeing Xu Shu's hesitation, Li Shu opened his mouth and said: "Lord Xu, don't worry, you will definitely obey the military orders, never take risks with yourself, and you won't let the adults explain badly." ”
