You Heng is like a river, and when it comes to excitement, you raise your horsewhip and beat Zang Ba again. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Zang Ba was on fire, snatched You Heng's horsewhip, and sneered at him: "If you hit me in the head again, I will break your legs." ”

You Heng was startled, hurriedly retreated again and again, and said with some surprise: "Hey, my temper has changed today, and I will get angry." ”

"Okay, okay......" Zang Hong grabbed Zang Ba and changed the topic, "Let's go back to the city to talk in detail, this time we will make Chen Yuanlong sick, and then take the opportunity to pull him to Hebei." ”

"Yuanlong's illness has not been cured, and from time to time he has chest tightness and can't breathe, and the three of us lied to him together, which may really make him angry to death." Zang Ba said worriedly.

"He's not going to die." You Heng smiled, "I remember that one year, when Master Huatuo came to Xuzhou, he saw him and left a few prescriptions. He later boasted everywhere that Master Hua Tuo had said that he could live to be at least eighty years old. ”

You Heng thought that Chen Deng was about to be deflated, and he was so unhappy that he grinned so much that he grinned.

Zang Ba glared at him dissatisfied, and said angrily: "Mi Zhengping, is it so fun to deceive people?" ”

"What do you know?" You Heng waved his hand at him and said disdainfully, "When I was with him in the past, he couldn't talk about me, and every time I was dumbfounded, he tried to trick me and make me ugly." ”

Zang Ba asked in disbelief, "Is it?" ”

"Yes." Zang Hong pointed at You Heng, who had a hateful face, and laughed, "One year, when the son of Hou Fuwan married, the scholars of Qing, Xu, and Yan gathered in Dongwu. At that time, everyone was young, and it was very comfortable to scold Fang Xuan and point out the country together. Drinking inevitably involves gambling on alcohol, gambling on alcohol requires betting, Yuan Long's words are amazing, saying that whoever loses the bet will be naked in the lobby, beating drums and singing. Results ......"

"You're going to die if you don't speak?" You Heng glared at Zang Hong, who couldn't help laughing, and scolded viciously.

"And then? Later, he was equal to Yuanlong, beating the drum and singing naked? Zang Ba asked curiously.

"Of course...... Ha ha...... Then...... At that time, there were many female dependents in the lobby, and when they saw Zhengping naked and holding a small drum there and singing with their heads up, they were so frightened that they scattered, and the scene was very funny...... Haha......" Zang Hong's face was red, he hugged his stomach and laughed wildly, and tears came out.

Zang Ba looked at You Heng in disbelief, and finally couldn't help laughing wildly: "Haha...... You Zhengping still has such a shameful thing, haha......"

"Ziyuan......" You Heng roared angrily, drew his sword, and said angrily, "I'm going to kill you......"

Zang Hong hugged his head and scurried.

Yuzhou Xiaopei.

After Cao Chun was ordered to rush to Peixian, he originally intended to attack Rencheng along the Surabaya River north, but because he was bringing cavalry, and Xuzhou was supplying him with grain and grass according to the number of foot soldiers, the result was that the army was seriously short of food and grass, and had to stay in the camp outside the city.

Soon, he received a secret letter from Cao Cao. Cao Cao told him to preserve his strength, even if he had to go north to attack Yanzhou, he should try his best to make a false encounter with the Northern Frontier Army.

This secret letter came at the right time, and although Xu Chang repeatedly urged him to attack north, Cao Chun replied in a very innocent tone: "Grain and grass, you have to give me five thousand cavalry grain and grass, so that I can have the strength to fight." ”

At that time, the battle of Guandu was in full swing, but Cao Chun and the soldiers of the tiger and leopard cavalry could only lie on the river embankment to bask in the sun, bathe the war horses, and be bored.

At this time, Ren Jun came in a hurry.

Ren Jun and Cao Cao are relatives and always participate in major decisions. He suddenly arrived at Xiaopei when the Guandu battlefield was extremely tense, which surprised Cao Chun very much.

After Ren Jun explained Cao Cao's strategy in detail, Cao Chun was dumbfounded, even if he had ten heads, he couldn't imagine that the Central Plains War would evolve into today's situation.

"You let Xu Chu take three thousand tigers and leopards to ride back to Guandu immediately." Ren Jun said, "Whether the prime minister can escape from the Guandu battlefield depends on these three thousand iron horsemen." ”

"So what do we do?" Cao Chun asked suspiciously, "There are only two thousand of us." Do you want to occupy Xuzhou with 2,000 people? ”

Ren Jun told Cao Chundao: "Zhongquan has secretly returned to his hometown in Qian County to gather people, and it is estimated that he can temporarily gather 2,000 people." ”

"That's only four thousand." Cao Chun exclaimed, "Brother Boda, you won't let me attack Xuzhou with four thousand people, right?" ”

"There's still a lot of people to come." Ren Jun smiled and shook his head, "Bo Ning has been ordered to go south to Lujiang County, Yangzhou, day and night, to meet Liu Xun." ”

Cao Chun was stunned for a moment and asked, "Liu Xun, Liu Zitai?" ”

"Liu Xun first betrayed Yuan Shao, and then betrayed Yuan Shu, who would dare to take him in? This time, Yuan Shao repeatedly ordered him to lead his army north to the Central Plains, but he just didn't go. Does he dare to go? To go is to die. Ren Jun sneered, "When we attacked Yangzhou last year, Liu Xun was the first to surrender, and it was precisely because of his surrender that Li Ye, Qiao Rui, Zhang Xun and others died in Qicheng, so he can't even stay in Yangzhou now, so he can only hide in Anfeng and Anfeng like a lost dog. ”

"The prime minister said that Liu Xun surrendered to us because he believed in us, and we couldn't just abandon him. In addition, he still has 20,000 horses, and I heard that he has recently collected a lot of remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in the Dabie Mountain area, so we can't abandon him now. If Liu Xun is willing to go north to join us, will our army to attack Xuzhou be enough? ”

Cao Chun nodded and said, "Liu Xun is cornered, except to go north to attack Xuzhou with us, does he still have a way to live?" ”

Ren Jun smiled, reached out and patted Cao Chun's shoulder, and asked, "Look, are we going to Pengcheng now?" ”

"Do you want to go now?" Cao Chun hesitated, "Didn't you just say that we can't do it until Xu Yu's counter-plan succeeds and Guandu starts a decisive battle?" ”

"We don't have enough food and grass, so we can only go to Pengcheng first." Ren Jun smiled mysteriously and said to Cao Chun, "You say, when we arrive in Pengcheng, will Jian Yong welcome us?" ”

Cao Chun smiled and said nothing.

Yingchuan, Yuzhou, Xuchang.

Xu You's defection caused Xu Chang to panic, after all, Xu You had almost all the secrets of the coalition army, which was too big a blow to the morale of the coalition army. Although Yuan Shao repeatedly explained in his letters to Liu Biao and Fu Zhu, it could not change the fact that the coalition forces had to change their established strategy and actively seek a decisive battle. At this moment, even if the coalition forces continue to implement the delaying strategy, they must launch a counterattack in the near future, so as to contain the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army, make up for the many problems caused by Xu You's defection, and buy time for the coalition forces to readjust their deployment.

His mood was very low for a while, perhaps because of the sympathy for the same illness, he did not express any opinion on Xu You's defection, and his enthusiasm for the big war disappeared all at once, and he often sat alone by the map in a daze.

Liu Biao often comforted him for this: "Although delaying without war is also a way, but the war drags on for too long and the variables are too great, who knows what accidents will happen to us?" Yuan Shao wanted to kill Cao Cao this time, wasn't it an accident? This kind of accident may cause the coalition to collapse instantly, so it is better to actively seek opportunities for a decisive battle. ”

"There are a lot of things that people can't figure out about this counter-plan." Fu Zhu once said to Liu Biao, "Is this Yuan Shao's anti-intercession, or Cao Cao's anti-intermittent strategy, or the anti-intermediation of the coalition forces?" Yuan Shao killed Xu You's nine clans, is it possible for Xu You to continue to carry out counter-plots for Yuan Shao? If this is Cao Cao's counter-plan, what does Cao Cao want to do? If this is a counter-strategy of the coalition forces, then where will Xu Yu survive after the end of the war? ”

Liu Biao's expression was solemn, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

Frustrated Professor kept staring at Liu Biao, he noticed the change in Liu Biao's eyes, and his heart moved.

………………

In the post house where Liu Biao stayed, Liu Biao and Liu Xian, Gongcao Han Song and others also discussed the current situation many times.

The coalition's strategy of indefinitely prolonging the war can lead only to two consequences.

First, the contradiction between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is becoming more and more intense, and will directly affect the victory or defeat of the war.

Under the current situation that the Northern Xinjiang Army is unable to break through Guandu, Yuan Shao can completely rely on his own military superiority and take the lead in solving Cao Cao on the spot.

Of course, Cao Cao will not be tied, he is very likely to ignore the danger of Sheji, resolutely escape from the battlefield, find another way to survive, and even more likely to turn against him and throw himself into the arms of Hebei. After this violent and bloody eunuch, there is nothing commendable in his conduct, and he has repeatedly done deviant and shocking things, which is not trustworthy at all.

Once Yuan Shao and Cao Cao openly broke down, the consequences were self-evident, the coalition army was disheartened, collapse was imminent, and the defeat of the Central Plains War was inevitable.

The second consequence is that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao both put the overall situation first, properly resolved the contradictions between each other, and continued to join forces to fight Hebei. Yuan Shao commanded the coalition army to successfully drag the war to the point of the collapse of the Northern Xinjiang Army without a fight, but in the end, regardless of whether the Northern Xinjiang Army safely withdrew to the north bank of the Yellow River, one thing is certain, that is, Yuan Shao, whose strength was well preserved, would definitely take advantage of the favorable situation after the war to find ways to solve Cao Cao and Liu Bei, so as to take the Central Plains all.

Liu Biao could not accept either of these consequences, so he had been relying on his superiority in strength to restrain all sides, trying to maintain the unity between the various units of the coalition army, and beware of an irretrievable collapse of the coalition army.

At the same time, he secretly teamed up with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, intending to free the Son of Heaven from Yuan Shao's hostage.

When the coalition forces defeated Hebei and Yuan Shaoquan took the Central Plains, Liu Biao and others could rely on the Son of Heaven in their hands to restrain and confront Yuan Shao, and prevent him from usurping the Han Dynasty and becoming self-reliant.

However, Xu You's defection completely changed the situation on the battlefield. As a result, the tide of the war suddenly reversed, and many of the advantages of the coalition forces were suddenly lost, which forced the coalition forces to take the initiative to seek a decisive battle for the Northern Frontier Army under the circumstances of leaked secrets, demoralization was greatly damaged, and the army was in danger.

With the strength of the current coalition forces, there was no absolute chance of winning the decisive battle, and the cavalry in the northern frontier had lost their confidence like a nightmare, and they decided to continue to wait, waiting for a better opportunity to attack, and this opportunity came from Xu You, who had defected to Hebei. (To be continued.) )
