Longmendu, one of the most important ferries in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, is also the dividing line between Qingdao and Xuzhou, because the river is wide here, the water potential is slow, and it is convenient for boats, so most of the pedestrians from the south to the north cross the river from this, and over time, 'Longmendu' has become a thriving water 6 wharf, and the soldiers want to Jin!

Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to draft, the fishermen on both sides of the strait usually rely on ferrying passers-by to make a living, but recently, the ferry business can not be done, all the fishing boats that row to the north shore without exception have been seized by Yuan Jun, the reason is also very simple~~ transport troops!

Since the strategy of sneak attack on Xuzhou, Yuan Tan set up a base camp here, for a time, the banner is like a cloud, the soldiers and horses are like a tide, the cowhide tents of the garrison are one by one, dense as stars, within ten days, 60,000 elite people have gathered, ordnance, grain and grass have also been prepared, just wait for an order, cross the Yellow River, Xuzhou!

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yuan Tan can be said to live like a year, every day the army is stationed, it will consume one more day of grain and grass, this year is not as good as in previous years, there has just been a locust plague in summer, Qingzhou is also one of the hardest hit areas, the crops are not harvested, Yuan Tan does not have the courage to eat locusts, coupled with the unfavorable relief of the government, the people starve to death are countless, and now this bit of grain and grass is still squeezed out of the teeth, and the people are also hard to catch, this battle, it can be said that the power of Qingzhou is exhausted!

Time passed day by day, the soldiers and horses had already been gathered, and the grain and grass were barely enough, but Jian Yong did not come back for a long time, whether the strategy of 'attacking from the north and south' could succeed, Yuan Tan was not sure at all, the army was stationed like this, not to mention the consumption of grain and grass, once his whereabouts were exposed, Cao Jun on the other side would be abandoned, could he not be in a hurry?

"Eldest prince, you can't hesitate any longer, cross the river immediately, sneak attack Xuzhou, and wait any longer, I'm afraid that 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' will come back!" Chen Deng is the most active in attacking Xuzhou, and he has to urge him almost every day!

"Mr. Yuanlong is a little restless, and my son also knows the truth of the noble gods, but Jian Yong has not returned for a long time, and the soldiers and horses of Jiangdong have not gone north, how can the soldiers of Qingzhou easily go south?"

Yuan Tan knows very well that this is a big gamble, if he wins, he will not only be able to take the land of Xuzhou, but also rely on this outstanding military exploit to ascend to the throne of the heir of the Yuan family, and go further, it is also very possible to 'ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan and reign in the world' in the future, on the other hand, once he loses, he will lose tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he may not have a chance to compete with Yuan Shang again!

One thought of heaven and one thought of hell is related to his future and fate, even if he is anxious, he has to wait, Yuan Tan even secretly made up his mind, if Jian Yong's envoy fails, and the Jiangdong soldiers and horses refuse to go north, he will give up this opportunity to attack Xuzhou, it is safer, it is better than rushing to death!

"Report ......, Mr. Jian Yong is back from Jiangdong!" A pro-soldier quickly ran into the big tent, knowing that this eldest prince was just killing, and it was too late to tell him, that he was going to kill his head!

"What, come back, let him come to me!" Yuan Tan jumped up directly from his seat, "God forbid, the fighter plane has finally appeared!" ”

"No!"

"Xiaguan has seen the eldest prince!" Jian Yong walked into the big tent wearing a merchant's clothes, and after leaving Jiangdong, he dressed up as a businessman, returned to Qingzhou non-stop, and after entering the camp, he didn't even change his clothes and ran over!

"Mr. has worked hard all the way, how about this trip to Jiangdong, did Sun Ce promise to send troops to attack Xuzhou?" Yuan Tan's heart was about to jump out, and he waited for many days, and finally waited for this messenger to come back!

"Congratulations to the eldest prince, Sun Ce has agreed to send troops!" While Jian Yong spoke, he took out a secret letter from his arms and sent it with both hands!

"When Xia Guan left Huiji City, Jiangdong soldiers and horses had been assembled on a large scale, with a total of 50,000 people, both water and 6, and the momentum was like a rainbow, but it was an elite division, but Sun Ce still had a request, he must be replenished with enough ordnance, grain and grass, so that the soldiers and horses can cross the river and go north!"

"Damn, he's a lion with a big mouth, and he wants to leave all his savings!" After reading the letter, the excited look on Yuan Tan's face was gone, but it was covered with black lines, and Sun Ce asked for a large number of materials in the letter, more than twice as much as he had promised, and almost emptied the treasury of Qingzhou!

"It's just a little grain and grass, why should the eldest prince care, Xuzhou is rich in the world, and there is the benefit of refined salt, and the annual tax can be tens of millions, as long as the city is captured, the ordnance, grain and grass are not as much, there are as many as they want!"

Chen Deng's words made Yuan Tan's face soften again, and what he said was that Xuzhou is a hen that lays golden eggs, as long as he gets it in his own hands, are he afraid of running out of money and food in the future!

"Okay, give it to him, give him all the money, immediately arrange a ship, send it to Sun Ce from the waterway, and urge him to send troops north immediately to attack Xuzhou!" Yuan Tan waved his hand, reluctant that the child couldn't trap the wolf, and he couldn't take the grain and grass from Xuzhou, so he let it go!

"Come on, beat the drums and gather the generals, gather the people and horses, prepare to cross the Yellow River, and fight Xuzhou!"

"No!"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Woo! ~~ Woo! Woo! ”

In the sound of the horn, Yuan Tansheng sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, and saw that he was wearing a golden tasseled helmet, wearing an iron armor, wearing a Xishu brocade robe, a red cloak, and a three-foot Qingfeng sword at the waist, sitting on the handsome position, but he was also majestic!

The world says that Yuan Tan is just murderous, jealous and strong, but I don't know that he still has some talents, as the son of a family, his literary and martial arts are very good, but the world is in chaos, heroes are out, and there are Xiao Yi, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, such demonic characters, the bright moon is brilliant, and the stars are not visible, so naturally his brilliance is covered!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Sun Ce has promised to send troops to attack Xuzhou, and the time has come for you to make contributions!" Looking at the generals under the tent, Yuan Tan's face was full of triumph, this is not a good time for him to create a hegemony in the world!

"The eldest prince is wise! …… Set foot in Xuzhou and dominate the Central Plains! ”

The generals were thunderous, smiling one by one, Xuzhou is rich in the world, money and grain are piled up, if they can seize it, it will also be of great benefit to them, maybe they can also get an official position such as Taishou!

"The eldest prince, the soldiers are in danger of war, you must not ignore it, it is better to wait for the Jiangdong soldiers and horses to go north, and then send troops more safely!" Liu Bei sat on the guest seat on the side, his expression was solemn, in his eyes, Xiao Yi was a wolf, Sun Ce was a tiger, and the tiger wolf was not credible!

"Xuande Gong's words are wrong, Sun Ce is a Jiangdong tiger, brave and strong, if he is the first to enter Xuzhou, then the land of the five counties will be in the tiger's mouth, and there will be our share there!" Chen Deng couldn't wait to enter Xuzhou immediately, take revenge, how could he wait any longer, at the same time, he took out an alliance list from his arms and showed everyone!

"Xiao Yi is brutal and unkind, the people of Xuzhou have suffered for a long time, this is a blood letter sent by the thirty-seven scholars, as long as the army crosses the river, these people are willing to provide the food and grass needed by the army, and they will also open the city gate as an internal response!"

"Oh, show me!" Yuan Tan hurriedly took the alliance slip in his hand, and sure enough, the names of dozens of family heads in Xuzhou were signed on it, and he also drew a hand charge, a large piece of red, and another line of small words, "Respectfully invite the eldest prince to enter Xuzhou and save the people from fire and water!" ”

"Haha, the hearts of Xuzhou people are like this, I don't have to worry about it!" Yuan Tan couldn't help but look up to the sky and laughed, the fortress is the easiest to break through from the inside, if these 'leading parties' help, the army can take Xuzhou without blood!

"Although there is an internal response, it is better to be careful, at least to ensure that the back road is worry-free, so that the army can advance and retreat freely!" At this point, Liu Bei is no longer able to speak out against it, but after fighting Xiao Yi several times, he knows that this person is terrible, and the battle situation that seems to be won is often reversed in an instant, this is all a lesson in blood, and he has to guard against it!

"Well, Xuande is reasonable, 'Longmendu' is not only the gateway to the army, but also the way back to retreat, and there must be no loss!" Although Yuan Tan was impatient, he could still listen to the advice and pondered a little, "Where are Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang?" ”

"The last general, please give orders from the eldest prince!" With the words, two big men walked out of the queue, and they were a pair of brothers, both of whom were bearded and fierce generals!

"Your two brothers lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the 'Longmen Crossing', which is the retreat of the army, and it is also the throat of transporting ordnance, grain and grass, and there must be no loss!"

"No, my two brothers will definitely guard the ferry to ensure that nothing goes wrong, please rest assured that the eldest prince will not be surprised!" Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang hurriedly hugged their fists and said yes, and they promised to be categorical and defend the ferry, a trivial matter!

"The rest of the troops pulled out the camp and set up the village, crossed the river in the starry night, and went straight to Pengcheng!" With the sword in hand, Yuan Tan revealed his murderous intentions, and finally gave the order to march!

"No!"
