Chapter 1591: The Battle of Xuzhou (188)

Zhang Ping and Zong Kou were able to escape smoothly, luck accounted for a large component, but difficulties will also be faced, that is, whether they should defend or withdraw, withdraw into Donglai, although it seems to be a plan decided early on, but what is Zhang Fei's task, isn't it to replace Houqian to mess up Donglai and even the entire Qingzhou.

And now Wen Chou came in person, it seems that the plan has been successful, but it also means that the risk they face is greater, in fact, Liu Lan's initial consideration is that Yuan Shao will not send the main force of Jizhou to suppress the bandits, Wen Chou and the main force of the Jizhou army, whether they are in Linzi City or Beihai County, their existence is danger, a deterrent to Xuzhou.

But once they were attracted to Donglai by Zhang Fei, didn't it just fall into his arms? Don't forget that Langya still has more than 100,000 Xuzhou troops, so Yuan Shao and his advisers would never dare to rashly let Wen Chou make a move, it is precisely such a consideration, so Liu Lan dared to send Zhang Fei to infiltrate Donglai, after all, it is much easier to deal with a commander.

But the current situation is completely different from what was expected, Wen Chou is in Yi'an, and is approaching Jimo, and at the same time, the management is even more powerful, which is simply to attack them on both sides, and Gao Ran, although he doesn't know where he is now, but it is very likely that he is still in Beihai at this moment or even to Chengyang County, and he will defend against the Xuzhou army, so that he leads 10,000 people to fight with nearly 100,000 people in Jizhou, and there is almost no chance of winning, it should not be absolutely no chance of winning.

And now the situation in Qingzhou has actually been reversed, although Liu Lan has a lot of influence on Qingzhou, but don't forget that in the eyes of the family, Yuan Shao's attraction is greater, not to mention that many of them themselves have intersections with Yuan Jun, if the initial chaos was planned by the pro-Liu Shi clan and the internal guard to make a large-scale riot in Qingzhou, attacking the county and occupying the county seat, and with Wen Chou leading a large army to Qingzhou, the pro-Yuan Shi clan took the opportunity to act, under their money and efforts, The rebellion in all counties was almost completely wiped out except for Donglai County, Yuan Tan and Wen Chou sent soldiers and horses to begin to accept the counties one after another, and everywhere they went, they were all welcomed by the road, and even some of the children of the Qingzhou Shi clan closed their doors during the control of Liu Lan Zangba, and their hermit attitude also changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and they rode horses and drove to Linzi to seek opportunities for advancement.

I have to say that although Liu Lan once had Zheng Xuan to help him get a lot of scholars to serve, but it was only mainly his students, in the eyes of many real families, Liu Lan was unattractive, they would rather concentrate on classics and educate people than be in Liu Lan's place, but Yuan Shao is different.

The Yuan family is a family of the world, looking at the entire Han Dynasty, the family that can be the family of the world's princes is the Yang family and the Yuan family in Guanxi, so Yuan Shaomo said that he raised his arms and shouted, even if the soldiers arrived, it was a group to respond, not to mention that now Liu Lan is obviously in decline, and if he doesn't change his court and don't go to work, that's a fool's behavior.

What's more, Liu Lan's new policy has dealt a great blow to the family, and even once became the three major disasters in Qingzhou, Liu Lan's yellow turban and locust plague, and Liu Lan is actually the first of these three disasters, which shows how hateful he is in the eyes of those big clans in Qingzhou, and although the locust plague is powerful, it is just to eat up the banker, and there is no danger to a big family like them, and the same is true of the yellow scarf, which causes great damage to the civilians, but to break through the dock fort of the big clans, it is also a fool's dream. Therefore, the two evils are more likely to cause harm to Qingzhou and the people, although they also affect themselves, but they will never hurt and fundamentally shake the foundation of their family like Liu Lan.

First of all, this new policy made them no longer able to find tenant farmers to farm for them, and the migration of civilians to Yangzhou, which was almost in despair, which was also forced by Liu Lan's obscenity, of course, more because of Zang Ba, even if they raised troops, the scope of the impact was not large, but they might even cause fire.

Therefore, after learning that Wen Chou led the soldiers to come, although they were still in a wait-and-see state at the beginning, this was also due to the fact that the Jizhou army was really weak and unassured, whether it was Yuan Tan back then or Yan Liang later, either the people and clans of Qingzhou were vulnerable, which of them dared to come out at the beginning?

But with Wen Chou's 100,000 main force moving south, such a large-scale attack, coupled with Yan Liang's defeat, made them feel that the opportunity had come.

For such a situation in Qingzhou, in fact, the most desperate is Zang Ba, of course, many of them are the kind of two-faced disgusting people, they Zang Ba has seen through them a long time ago, it is not surprising that there is such a situation, but those families who were once trusted and relied on by him have become the vanguard, which is indeed a little chilling to him.

But this is the reality, Zang Ba asked himself, in such a situation, he would be like him sullen, make the same choice, just like Liu Lan sent troops to Langya in the name of Bei Kou, although it sounded good to meet him, but people with discerning eyes knew that he was here to encircle and suppress himself, if he did not accept the suggestion to come to Qingzhou at that time, then his current situation is no different from Cao Bao.

But the truth is understood, but this person, isn't it like this, he will never think that these scholars have tried their best, but feel that even if they are not loyal to death, they should not help the abuse, but the scholars are wrong, if they don't make a force, then Wen Chou will take them under the knife, a person's life and death are small, but this big family, hundreds of years of family, what kind of accident, how can they be worthy of their ancestors?

The situation in Qingzhou has been completely resolved, and now Donglai is missing, and in Youzhou, with the good news brought by Xian Yufu's return, Yuan Xi's hanging heart has completely fallen, and he has been in excitement all day, but after the days have passed, his message to his father has not been sent out for a long time, because Tian Yu still has no intention of withdrawing his troops.

He sat alone in the middle of the bedroom, withdrawing from everyone, not lighting a lamp, nor burning a charcoal fire to keep warm, alone in the cold room, clothed in a thick mink coat, holding a long sword, in the darkness.

He sat quietly alone, he didn't know if he should continue to trust Xian Yufu, but he didn't know if Xian Yufu couldn't be trusted, who else could help him.

The sword was tightly held by him, and his father had several swords, but he heard that the Yitian Sword in Cao Cao's hand now was the best among all the swords, and even had a name on the weapon spectrum, but it was his father's Sizhao Sword, although it was also on the list, but it was extremely low.

The reason why he thought of this Heavenly Sword was precisely because of his current embarrassing situation, and because he didn't know whether to believe Xian Yufu or not.

Many people thought that his father could have today, completely because of the occurrence of various thoughts, and finally pushed his father to today's position, but if he didn't know the story of how the Heavenly Sword came to Cao Cao's hands, he would have believed it like this, but after knowing this story, he found out that when his father was from Luoyang to Bohai, someone had already given him advice.

And during this period, there was not even a discussion for Dong.

"If I am based on the Yellow River in the south, guard the Yan Dynasty in the north, and have the people of Karasuma Xianbei, and then fight for the ...... of the world in the south."

Yuan Xi sighed, this is what his father said to Cao Cao back then, and at that time, his father's advisers were only a few people who were just Ji Ji and Xu You, but I have to say that my father's eyes are so sharp, not only can he use people, but at the same time, he looks at the problem more than sharply, in the situation at that time, the Central Plains is by no means the place to make a fortune, where the princes look around, and Dong Zhuo is on the side, to pacify the Central Plains, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent, not to mention that he may not be able to laugh at the end under the confrontation with Dong Zhuo.

After all, Yuan Xi put himself in the shoes of the situation back then and thought about his father, at that time, if someone would say that Dong Zhuo would die, Li urged Guo Yan to die, and even the princes of the Central Plains were vulnerable, it would definitely be laughed off, so his father made such a blueprint for development under the circumstances at that time, both the vision and the decision-making were extremely correct, and he also carried out the blueprint in an orderly manner according to his own blueprint, or the development blueprint made by Xu Yu and others, so my father had today's situation. As he said, the north guards the Yan Dynasty and the south takes the world.

It's just that now the south is based on the Yellow River, and the defense of the Yan Dynasty in the north is no longer Dong Zhuo but Liu Lan, but the south has not changed the point of seizing the world, whether Dong Zhuo is stronger or Liu Lan is stronger, this is the only way, there is no other choice at all.

But what about him? He thought of himself, and thought that he was so incompetent at the same age as his father, not to mention that he did not have the wisdom of his father, and he did not even have a available person, a staff member who could give advice, and finally there was a little assistant, but there were doubts about whether he could be trusted.

If he is really a person with great wisdom, why hasn't Tian Yu retreated, if such a person is his mastermind, then how can he repel Tian Yu, let alone inherit the position of the prince.

He knows his situation best, he is the son-in-law, but not the eldest son, so the position of the son of the world has almost nothing to do with him, just like now in Jizhou, most of the people who support the eldest brother are some old ministers, because of the identity of the eldest brother's eldest son, he almost unconditionally supports him, and the other part of the people is because of his father's love for the third brother, and he likes it, but he has become a dispensable existence, so he almost lost the opportunity to compete for the son.

Finally, he felt that the opportunity had appeared, and Xian Yufu could help him, but he was actually a big fool who deceived the world and stole his name, and the anger and remorse in his heart burned at the same time, and he drew his sword out of its sheath and slashed down on the dwarf side.

When there was a loud bang, the long sword in his hand was bounced off, and he yelled wildly, which hit him even harder, he couldn't even hold the sword and couldn't hold it steadily, he still wanted to fight for the prince?

"Are you alright?"

This was the sound of caring for the soldiers outside the door, and Yuan Xi, who was almost in tears, calmed down, he didn't want his subordinates to know that he was so decent, and said, "I'm fine, I knocked down the wooden table." ”

"Oh yes, is anyone here today?"

"It's rare for General Yu to come to see him at noon, but the assassin Shi said early in the morning that no matter who comes to visit today, he won't be seen, so he stopped him, I heard that he is still waiting in front of the hall for the assassin to summon him."

Yuan Xi closed his eyes and didn't speak, time passed minute by minute, and he didn't know how long it had been, but it was estimated that it had been at least more than an hour, he opened his eyes and said, "Go to the front yard and take a look, if he hasn't left yet, call him over." ”

Yuan Xi calmed down, although he didn't trust Xian Yufu, but don't forget that he is really unavailable now, even if he really wants to snub Xian Yufu, it will be after he has a successor, not now, otherwise who else can help him after this and give him advice?
