Above Wuzhi Yuan's camp, there was a gloomy cloud.

Although the matter of fighting generals last time has come to an end, the dark clouds that shrouded Yuan Jun's heart have become dense one after another under the brewing of time. At this time, Yuan Jun had not called for war for six days, and the battle-free card hung high every day was like a huge ironic card, reminding Yuan Jun of the shame of that day all the time.

Yuan Shao no longer had the courage to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger before the expedition, and at this time, he was lying in a golden tent full of various antiques and books. Zheng'er was fed a mouthful of decoction by the maid. The military generals around him stood aside one by one, and finally stopped with a rare stop.

Yuan Shao's gaze flickered towards those people, and he didn't see the figure of Fu Zhu. This time, the person who presided over the whole army was Xu You. At this moment, Xu Youyou was standing beside Yuan Shao, his eyes were bright and dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this time, Yuan Shao was too lazy to speak, and for some reason, he remembered what he said to him: Those who want to attack the enemy must first weigh the soldiers and horses. Those who want to build a business must first declare morality. King Yuan Gongqin begged for thieves, and he was famous as a teacher, and he led the land and led the Quartet. If on this basis, we build literature and morality, repair political principles, and become strong and powerful under the rule, and the people will be attached, and send troops when there are changes in the north of the Yellow River, it will not be difficult to peace.

Ma' and Cao are the world's heroes and are quite eloquent. In addition, Ma Chao is based in the three prefectures of Liang, Yong, and Si, and is extremely good at governing the country and caring for the people, and the new political system has been reformed, and the people are rich and the army is strong; Cao Cao knew the reality of the truth, saw the situation of the troops in battle, strategized, and skillfully conquered the world, and it was difficult for both of them to quickly seize the army.

The way to use soldiers, win first and then fight, measure the enemy and judge the generals, and help without a last resort. The minister felt that among the current monarchs and ministers, no one was the opponent of Ma Chao and Cao Cao, even if Yuan Gong personally conquered it and came to him with the power of heaven, he might not be able to have a perfect potential.

When Yuan Shao heard these words, he never imagined that Fengzhi, who was dedicated to serving the Yuan family, would pour cold water on him when he sent out the army, and made such pedantic arguments. Or Xu You understands his own thoughts: the horse thief is rampant, and he will take advantage of his unstable foothold to fight it with the strength of the whole country.

Yuan Shao followed his words, appointed Xu You as the chief army, and after reprimanding him, he sent troops to attack Ma Chao. It is unimaginable that so far, in exchange for such a result!

Yuan Shao recalled the battle with Ma Chao, and he found that since Ma Chao raised his troops, Ma Chao has always taken the initiative, whether it is his defeat of the high-ranking cadres and the Yan Division, or the suspicious formation of the Yellow River, or even the recent siege of the city to aid Zhanhuai County, the battle before the battle will frustrate the army. Ma Chao has never failed, at most there was an assassination failure and Huaixian was defeated when he sent reinforcements....... and if he hadn't given the order in advance, Yan Liang might have died in that battle.

What's even more odious is that a few days ago, after Ma Chao returned to the camp after victory, what did he shout?

Is it reminding yourself?

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart, he felt that his wisdom had been insulted, he turned over and sat up, and asked Xu You: "Ziyuan, you have been with me for many years, why did I never know that you actually learned the method of arranging a formation to defend against the enemy?" Also, about the assassination of Xuanming Palace, why did you and Fu Gonghe remind Gao Ran to take precautions at the same time? ”

"Ming Gong, you have always been loyal to the Yuan family, and Ming Gong has never paid attention to the strategy in his heart and the skills he has learned. As for the assassination, the ministers expected that Ma Chao was treacherous and ferocious, so he ordered General Gao to take precautions in advance, what was wrong? Xu You heard that Yuan Shao was a little suspicious of himself, and immediately made a statement.

Xu You talked to Yuan Shao like this, firstly, because he had always been open-mouthed, and secondly, because he was kind to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others when he was young, and he had a deep relationship. At the same time, Yuan Shao also knew that Xu You had always been deeply dissatisfied with his lack of importance, and it was normal to have such remarks today.

But this normal tone did not give the most normal explanation. Yuan Shao frowned and glanced at Xu You, and after looking around again, he felt that his head hurt a little: among the staff members under him, there are those who are arrogant, there are also those who snack horses, and those who form gangs are even more open. But there is no doubt that the culprit responsible for everything today is himself.

Under the command of the ministers, will Yuan Shao, who is behind the famous family, have some means?

It's just that after being intoxicated with his own means for a long time, Yuan Shao is used to seeing the faces of these people pretending to be according to his own requirements. But not now, Yuan Shao waved his hand to let the maid who fed the medicine retreat, and then lifted his spirits and said: "The princes have also seen that now the Yuan family soldiers are blocking Hanoi, and the 500,000 army is helpless in the face of the Ma family's army. What can I do about today's affairs? ”

"My lord, in the opinion of my courtiers, Ma Mengqi used all his strength to offend the lord's authority. As a result of repeated use of tactics, our army has no fighting spirit, and after a long time, defeat has been decided. Feng Ji looked at Yuan Shao's face, stepped forward and admonished: "It is imperative that there must be a big victory to boost the morale of our army before we can fight with Ma Chao." ”

"Yes, yes." Yuan Shao raised his hand and motioned for Feng Ji to continue.

"The method of using soldiers, ten will surround it, five will attack it, and the multiple will divide it." Feng Ji said this, quite complacent, and continued: "Now the Yuan family's strength is stronger than the Ma family, and they are good at terrain. If Ming Gong does a move to break the cauldron tomorrow, then Ma Chao's arrogant soldiers will definitely go all out to resist it. At that time, choose a general, ambush in Xiuwu, take advantage of Ma Chao's Shanyang Dazhai to transfer troops, and rob it halfway, which can frustrate the morale of the Ma family, and if you get the head of the enemy general, it will subvert the battle situation! ”

"Good!" Yuan Shao simply took Feng Ji's opinion this time and ordered: "Yan Liang, you select 20,000 elite soldiers tonight and lurk in Xiuwu." If you see Shanyang Village sending troops, you will act at the opportunity, and attack the village and attack the enemy, all of which are up to you! ”

"No!" Yan Liang heard that this time the lord not only did not let the people quarrel, but also gave him the authority to judge the situation, and immediately raised a sense of trust and accepted the order in a loud voice.

Xu You glanced at Feng Ji leisurely, to be honest, he didn't think that Feng Ji's trick could deceive Ma Chao. And when he returned to his military camp and told the man about this plan, the man sneered at the corner of his mouth and said, "Bullshit! If Ma Mengqi could have been deceived by this, he would have lost to me a long time ago. ”

Xu You glanced at the person in front of him with a very strange face, and couldn't help but think of the first meeting between them.

At that time, Xu You was still in Yecheng, his family broke the law and was tried and imprisoned. At the same time, Soft Yan suggested that Xu You could use his strength to get the trial and match to the Western Front as a high-level cadre supervising army.......

Xu You was also in a hurry to go to the doctor at that time, and according to this person's statement, he never thought that he would really transfer the trial step by step. At the same time, after another activity, Xu You also found a scapegoat and rescued his family. After this incident, Xu You naturally suspected the identity of this person, that night, Xu You remembered that this person did not perform a big gift, but just arched his hand to himself without being humble or arrogant, and said: "In Xia Pangtong, from Xu Du, it is Your Majesty's embroidered messenger." ”

'Embroidered Messenger' was originally the special name of Emperor Wu's envoy, and he had the right to kill with the festival. In that era, they represented the supreme authority and terror of the royal family. After the revival of Guangwu, this system was gradually abolished and gradually forgotten. It was Pang Tong who gently spit out these four words, and the monstrous and majestic killing more than a hundred years ago actually erupted, filling the entire house in an instant. For a while, Xu You forgot the age and strange face of this person: after all, a person who can sneak into Yecheng silently, and who is also skillful, is indeed not something that can be looked down on by age and appearance.

Even, until this time, Xu Yu recalled the scene of that night. He couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the young son of heaven who was in the deep palace still had such a huge amount of energy. You must know that the name of the young demon Pang Tong has spread all over the country, but who would have thought that he would be holding His Majesty's ring dragon Yujue, and he is a member of the Han family.

"Although Feng Ji is a little whimsical, his strategy is not a bad introduction. If it is used well, it is not necessarily ineffective. After thinking for a moment, Pang Tong said: "It's the last chance, if there is no way to defeat Ma Mengqi, then Yuan Shao should also tie his hands to Ma Chao." I have a hunch that Ma Mengqi has been dormant, and he has definitely laid out some overall situation......."
