"Before Xu Yu betrayed, how could he have had unfavorable words and deeds towards the lord?" Feng Ji sneered, "If my guess is right, and Fu Zhu also betrayed the lord, then we will indeed lose this battle, and we will lose it very badly." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Yuantu, be sober, don't be suspicious." Liu Shao looked angry, pointed to his nose and said, "If he betrays the lord, why is he writing this letter?" He didn't think he was dying fast enough? ”

Feng Ji pushed Liu Shao's hand away and said coldly, "What do you know?" If the lord is in the middle of the plan, listens to the words of frustration, and moves the Son of Heaven to Luoyang, then once the Central Plains War fails, the Northern Xinjiang Army will surround Luoyang and attack Luoyang. Liu Biao, Liu Bei and others will also be restrained in Luoyang. At that time, there will inevitably be another decisive battle between Hebei and the coalition forces. If we still fail, will Li Yi have already pacified the world? Does he still need to travel thousands of miles south to conquer? Can't you see such a vicious scheme? ”

"Yuantu, you're going too far." Yuan Zhong shook his head and sighed, "Fu Gong and Gong were originally very kind, but if you say this, it has become a conspiracy." We don't know how things will develop, and it is also speculation, but your speculation is alarmist. ”

"If you think it's alarmist, that's right." Feng Ji smiled proudly, "Everything must be in front, think thoroughly, and be foolproof, otherwise, we won't even know who cut off our heads." ”

"Then you say, how should this matter be handled?" Liu Shao asked angrily, "I can warn you, you must not arrest the frustrated prince, otherwise something will definitely happen to Luoyang." ”

"Let him escort him and move the Son of Heaven to Nanyang Wancheng." Feng Ji thought for a moment and said, "Whether he has dealings with Hebei or not, and whether he betrayed the lord or not, we can't trust him now, and we must transfer him to the farthest place from the battlefield." ”

Yuan Shao, Liu Shao, and Yuan Zhong all looked surprised, and Yuan Shao blurted out, "Nanyang? Move the Son of Heaven to Nanyang? ”

"That's right." Feng Ji nodded and said, "First of all, we are not willing to take the Son of Heaven to Luoyang, that's for sure. Secondly, we must ensure the safety of the Son of Heaven, who is very important to us at the moment and cannot have an accident. Of course, the Northern Frontier Army wanted to kill him, but Cao Cao wanted to hold him hostage even more. Cao Cao is not only a butcher, but also a villain who does all kinds of evil, this kind of person you force him to be anxious, he can do anything. His tiger and leopard ride is not in Xiaopei now. Xiaopei is not far from Xuchang, if the tiger and leopard ride swaggered into the city and openly held the Son of Heaven hostage, we are really dumbfounded, and we can only let Cao Cao go. Third, of course, it is to take care of Liu Biao and Liu Bei's emotions. Liu Biao and Liu Bei are both ministers of the clan, so I am afraid that something will happen to this son of heaven, and we are always on guard against us moving him to Luoyang. Now that we've moved the Son of Heaven to Nanyang, which is close to Jingzhou, he should be relieved, right? You should be fighting the war with all your heart, right? ”

"Xianyi is in Nanyang, recruiting new soldiers, we will hand over the Son of Heaven to him and let him protect him." Feng Ji looked at the three of them and said confidently, "Isn't it more appropriate to do this?" Isn't it more conducive to the security of the Son of Heaven and the current war situation? ”

Yuan Shao nodded again and again: "Yuantu is a good idea. ”

He looked at Liu Shao and Yuan Zhong with an inquiring gaze. The two agreed that as long as they didn't arrest Fu Zhu now, everything else would be trivial.

"Let Chang Lin do this." Yuan Shao said to Feng Ji, "The court will hand over the mess to Fu Zhu, let him do it." The Son of Heaven went to Nanyang, Brother Jingsheng should have gone to the battlefield in person, right? ”

"He's old and timid, and he's afraid to go to war." Feng Ji teased.

"You think you're young?" Yuan Shao sighed sullenly, "We are almost fifty years old, and we are old, I don't know if we can see a peaceful day in the world." ”

………………

Chang Lin was ordered to go south to Xuchang day and night and move to Nanyang.

Yuan Shao personally sent him out of the mansion and repeatedly told him to be careful and not to have an accident.

As soon as Chang Lin left, there was an urgent report from Luoyang.

Yuan Tan reported urgently, he got the latest news from Xiliang, Zhang Liao led the army to leave Wuwei County in a hurry because of the war in the desert.

Zhang Liao's departure was tantamount to a failure of mediation, and Han Sui and Ma Chao immediately went to war again.

Zhang Liao's departure from Xiliang also triggered another serious crisis: the Qiang rebellion.

After Zhang Liao left, because of the lack of troops, Wuwei County burned Dangqiang and other Western Qiang species roared down from Hexi, Chen soldiers on the Yellow River, and threatened Jincheng County.

Han Sui was attacked on both sides and was too busy to take care of himself, and the threat to Guanzhong was lifted.

Yuan Tan said to Yuan Shao in his letter: "Father, the threat of Xiliang is lifted, I have no worries, and I should do my best to attack Hedong and respond to the battlefield in the Central Plains." ”

Yuan Shao had always been worried that Han Sui would be unfavorable to Guanzhong, and after getting the news, his mood suddenly improved a lot.

The next day, a better message was delivered to Guandu.

Xuzhou Jian Yong and Chen Deng urgently reported that at the beginning of this month, Qingzhou Zang Ba was rebelled and had withdrawn from Langya State. Zang Ba's petition for guilt and a letter to Yuan Shao were also delivered at the same time.

Jian Yong and Chen Deng said in their letters that they had discussed with Zang Ba that they would gather 50,000 troops to attack Pingyuan County and Ganling Kingdom in Jizhou in the first half of this month in order to contain the forces of the Northern Xinjiang Army.

This news made Yuan Shao overjoyed. If Chen Deng and Zang Ba can conquer Gaotang in Pingyuan County, after the army crosses the river, they can directly enter the Ganling Kingdom in Jizhou and directly smash the rear of the Northern Xinjiang Army.

At this moment, Jizhou's troops are empty, and there will inevitably be chaos, which will directly affect the Central Plains battlefield. If Li Yi had no choice but to urgently transfer cavalry back to Jizhou, the decisive battle would be very beneficial to the coalition forces.

Yuan Shao calculated the time, Chen Deng and Zang Ba's army should be about to arrive in Linzi. If nothing else, in late August, they will be able to cross the Yellow River and enter Jizhou.

Yuan Shao, who was in a good mood, immediately ordered: "Order, ride eight hundred miles to Xuzhou Jianyong, let him report as soon as he gets the news that Chen Deng and Zang Ba have entered Jizhou, and do not have any delay." ”

At this critical moment, good news came from the battlefields on the east and west flanks, which made Yuan Shao very happy, and he hurriedly convened the generals of all departments to discuss and deploy the strategy of the decisive battle.

………………

In the middle of August of the fourth year of Jian'an, Yangwu City, Henan.

After ten days of aggressive fighting, the coalition forces stopped.

Xu Maogong was very anxious, and continuously urged Chen Liu's Gao Shun to withdraw as soon as possible, and drove the coalition forces on the Chen Liu battlefield to the Guandu battlefield as soon as possible.

At this time, Li E came with news that the cavalry led by Wei Xu successfully attacked Xuchang and burned the grain and grass camp in Xuchang.

Xu Maogong, Jia Xu and others didn't care. There are many places where the coalition forces have stockpiled grain and grass, and burning a large grain battalion will not affect the morale of the coalition troops, let alone the development of the war situation.

Xu Maogong urged Li E and Gao Shun again to withdraw from Chen Liu, don't waste time.

Handan Xingyuan also sent a message at this time, Zang Ba pretended to betray Hebei, has won Chen Deng's trust, and is now gathering troops and horses with Chen Deng to attack Jizhou, and it is estimated that he will be able to cross the river north and enter Jizhou at the end of this month. After this news is sent to Yuan Shao, the attack strategy of the coalition forces may be sharper, please Xu Maogong pay attention to using this news, and at the end of this month, appropriately withdraw part of the troops to Jishui, so as to attract the coalition forces to cross the chasm and water as soon as possible.

Xu Maogong, Jia Xu, Sima Yi and others laughed when they heard the news. Here Xu Yu pretended to betray the coalition forces and fled to Hebei. There, Zang Ba pretended to betray Hebei and attracted Xuzhou's army to Qingzhou. Both things are beneficial to Hebei, and it seems that not only the decisive battle in the Central Plains has a good chance of winning, but even Xuzhou may take advantage of the situation.

Xu Maogong asked Sima Yi next to him: "By the way, Zhongda, how is Xu You's recent situation?" Or do you drown your sorrows with wine every day? ”

"He's in very bad condition, and if he didn't drink, he would have gone crazy." Sima Yi's smile gradually narrowed, and he sighed softly, "He is arrogant and conceited, he sings with a sword, and he is dashing, how can he ever suffer such a blow?" ”

"Did he say anything?" Xu Maogong asked, "We don't ask him, and he doesn't ask us?" ”

Sima Yi shook his head in disappointment and said, "He is drunk all day, what can he say?" ”

"Forget it, let him go. When it comes to critical moments, he will naturally speak. Xu Maogong said with a smile, "Although he is drunk, his head is sober and ruthless." ”

"Since he's here, he won't go home empty-handed." Jia Xu spread out the map on the desk and said with a smile, "Don't talk about him, let's take a look at Xuzhou." If Zang Ba arrested Chen Deng and disarmed the Xuzhou army, how sure would he be that he would take Xuzhou? ”

"How many troops are there in Xuzhou now? Do we have any sure news? Xu Maogong asked.

"Absolutely. Since Zang Ba was said by them, they always had to show some sincerity. Zhuge Liang picked up Xingyuan's letter and looked at it, and said to Xu Maogong, "Chen Deng took 10,000 Guangling soldiers to the north with Zang Ba. Jian Yong led 10,000 troops to garrison Pengcheng, Tancheng and Kaiyang. In addition, there are 10,000 temporarily recruited recruits, who are training in Pengcheng. ”

"I think that if you want to fight Xuzhou, Zang Ba's army and Rencheng's Chen Gong and Wu Dun's armies can enter at the same time. Zang Ba attacked Langya and Donghai, Chen Gong attacked Pengcheng and Xiapi, and then the two armies converged in Guangling. ”

"It's that easy." Jia Xu shook his head and smiled, "The Central Plains is too far away from Qingzhou, and there is no way to send the information to Zang Ba through the flying pigeon book, so you can only ride quickly." By the time we send the news to Zang Ba, the Xuzhou army may be about to flee to Xuzhou. If you want to take Xuzhou, there is only one way, and that is to completely annihilate the coalition forces on the battlefield in the Central Plains. ”

When everyone was chatting, a guard came to report, and Yuan Yao and Liu Ye came to see them.

"Yuan Yao?" Xu Maogong was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What is he doing here?" Want to go back to Yangzhou? (To be continued.) )
