Chapter 549: Eighty Thousand Reinforcements
Chapter 549: Farewell (Page 1/1)
All the soldiers who were fighting around them stopped in an instant. Silently looking at this side.
For a moment, Yuan Xi wanted to kill Yuan Shang directly, and then take over Sizhou himself.
But he quickly repudiated this approach, if Youzhou could stop Cao Cao, it must be based on a strong economic foundation and adequate preparations.
But now, if he doesn't care about anything and starts to defend the four states, not to mention that it is nominally unreasonable, even from a long-term perspective, Yuan Xi feels that this deal is not cost-effective.
The current Jizhou is not the previous Jizhou, ten rooms and nine empty, the people are displaced, and it is a good thing to have land, but he still needs time, obviously Cao Cao can't give him time.
If he pulled all the soldiers and horses from Youzhou over, he didn't think that the odds of victory would be higher than that in Youzhou.
Therefore, no matter from the perspective of time, troops, economic base, or long-term strategic vision, it is now accepting Jizhou, Qingzhou, which may fall at any time, and the ruined annexed state. None of the best options.
The strength of the Yuan family is no longer enough to support the control of the four states.
Yuan Xi thought for a while, turned around and shouted, "Big brother, come here!" ”
Yuan Tan hurriedly rode over on horseback.
Yuan Xi looked at him: "Do you dare to take over his position?" ”
Yuan Tan said excitedly: "Second, second brother, are you serious? ”
"Yuan Xi, you don't have the right to do this!" Yuan Shang gritted his teeth and roared.
Yuan Xi raised the silver spear high, and then knocked it on his helmet fiercely, suddenly dazzling Yuan Tan's tinnitus and speechlessness.
"Of course it's true, but if you really want to take over, I have something to say to you."
"You say," Yuan Tan never dreamed that he would take over his father's position like this.
"First, send my mother to me."
Yuan Tan hesitated and nodded.
"Second, Cao Cao is coming to attack, and I will not send troops in Youzhou."
Yuan Tan's face suddenly became ugly.
Yuan Xi didn't care about him, he originally wanted Yuan Tan to give him to resist the impact of Cao Jun and consume the other party.
"So I suggest you, if Qingzhou really can't do it, you can choose to give up, just send a few people to station, and when the Cao army comes to attack, you will retreat immediately."
Perhaps it was the temptation of power that made Yuan Tan make up his mind, and in the end Yuan Tan nodded and agreed with Yuan Xi's statement.
Yuan Xi smiled, "After the two battles, there are not many talents in our Yuan family." If some people don't want to use it, give them to me, don't let the talent slip away in vain and go to Cao Cao. ”
Yuan Tan was silent.
"Forget it, I shouldn't say anything more about Jizhou's affairs, let's say one last sentence, if you really can't resist it, just return to Youzhou, at least now I think Youzhou can resist Cao Cao's attack, but if you bring the soldiers and horses over to help here, then the Yuan family will really be over, big brother I hope you understand what I mean."
Yuan Tan felt a little better in his heart, and pointed at Yuan Shang and said, "He handled it like this?" ”
"You can do it yourself," Yuan Xi said lightly: "No matter how you fight with Cao Cao, remember that food can't be left to the other party, and maybe it can last for a while longer." Although he Cao Cao won, there is not enough food and grass, and sometimes the walls are clear, which is also a correct choice, such as evacuating all the people and materials before evacuating Qingzhou. ”
Yuan Tan nodded.
beckoned the soldiers to come over and tied up Yuan Shang.
Yuan Xi silently watched the eldest brother clean up the mess, sighed lightly in his heart, turned around and walked towards the north city gate.
In a short period of time, three hundred soldiers lost dozens of people, and Yuan Xi was distressed with blood. But today it had to be done.
Since the skin of the face is torn, there is no need to cover it up anymore, Yuan Shao is gone, who will he show it?
It's like what he said to his eldest brother Yuan Tan just now, in fact, it has been put bluntly, that is, let Yuan Tan command the few remaining hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to fight against Cao Cao, and to put it deeply, it is to help him fight the front and consume the enemy.
But Yuan Tan just agreed, because he couldn't resist the temptation in front of him.
Willing to fight, willing to suffer.
In the land of Sanzhou, the general, and nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses are not something that he Yuan Tan can get casually. There are not many people in the world who can give it up.
There are many reasons why Yuan Xi gave up, and the biggest reason is that he doesn't want to take this risk.
Yuan Shang's voice was still scolding from time to time, but no one paid attention to him, and Yuan Xi didn't know how Yuan Tan would treat Yuan Shang, he didn't care, whether it was to kill, close, or continue to appoint, he didn't care, as if he didn't pay attention to Yuan Tan's feelings just now, and directly said all his thoughts.
Yuan Xi clearly knew that he needed to break with the Yuan family's past in a broken way, otherwise he could only be tied up forever.
Let Yuan Tan send his mother to Youzhou, he also has this idea, first, he can be filial, and on the other hand, he can effectively prevent Yuan Tan, and use his mother to play the family card in the future and let him send troops.
Yuan Xi calmly thought of all aspects, except for Youzhou and the possibility of merging states, he didn't have any nostalgia for other places. He only wants absolute dominance, and no one can command him a penny.
It wasn't until he left Yecheng that Yuan Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally walked out safely.
Xu Chu had been waiting outside for a long time, and when the group came out, he immediately rode a war horse to meet him: "Lord." ”
When he came closer, Xu Chu was startled, and his eyes widened suddenly: "Lord, what's going on?" ”
Yuan Xiang told the matter again, and shouted angrily to Xu Chu to wave his army to attack the city.
Yuan Xi scolded him twice before stopping.
"Let's go, let's go back." Yuan Xi waved his hand, and the army went back and forth.
He glanced back, thinking that this return was more like a farewell ceremony. The feelings in my heart are very complicated, but in the end, I feel as if nothing matters.
Turning around and raising the horsewhip, he was about to speed back, when he heard a majestic voice from behind, "Second son, wait for me." ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly looked back, only to see Wen Chou and Fu Zhu with a few carriages, slowly rushing towards this side.
Yuan Xi was overjoyed in his heart, what he meant by what he said to Yuan Tan just now was to let him not dare to reuse someone who had something to do with him, so it would be better to give it to him, but he didn't expect the two of them to come.
What's more critical is that the frustration is also here.
Yuan Xi turned his horse and rushed back, running towards Wen Chou and Fu Zhu.
The three of them dismounted, and Yuan Xi said happily: "Are you going to your Youzhou to help me?" ”
Wen Chou smiled: "I saw the situation in the city before, and I wanted to go up to help, but I didn't expect the second son and his subordinates to be brave, but I thought about it too much." ”
Fu Zhu frowned and said: "The talents of the second son, the eldest prince and the third prince are not enough to hold Jizhou, why don't you take over in person with such a good opportunity just now?" ”
