"Fengxiao, what are you doing here?"

"Hehe, why should General Huang be so worried, although we didn't occupy the entire territory of Le'an Country this time, we also occupied half of it."

"Bong Hyo-lai won't be talking to me about this, right?"

"Hehe, of course not, yesterday we sent the news of this place to the lord, and the lord has already replied"

"What, really, what does the lord say, is it to fight or to retreat"

"Hehe, of course it is retreating, the lord ordered, we will not fight with Cao Cao for the time being, so that you send a general to garrison Bochang to guard against Cao Cao, and then you and I will lead the army to Linzi West City, surround Yuan Shao's city with a large army, and then we will attack on both sides to eliminate Yuan Shao. ”

"Well, since the lord has said so, then I won't argue anything, I'll go and gather the team and set off immediately"

"Hehe, that's exactly the case, so that the war in Qingzhou can be resolved as soon as possible, and Qingzhou will be peaceful."

On the same day, Huang Zhong left the general Gao Ya, led 10,000 troops to garrison Bochang, half of the elegant martial arts, but the intelligence was extraordinary, he was a general who got up early to follow Liu Qing, although he usually served as a lower-level official, but he worked hard, this time he was recommended to Huang Zhong by Xi Zhicai, Huang Zhong asked him to stay in Bochang to see how he was, whether he could lead an army alone, Gao Ya also knew Huang Zhong's intentions, when Huang Zhong told him, he patted his chest and promised that he would guard Bochang.

After leaving Gao Ya, Huang Zhong Guo Jia led the army and set off towards Linzi, the seat of Qi State.

At this time, there were already hundreds of thousands of troops in Linzi City, and the increased number of these people were all soldiers sent by Yuan Shao from all over the country, and Liu Qing and these people were all training, without any intention of carrying out, Yuan Shao attacked many times, and many challenges were defeated by Liu Qing's army, and then Yuan Shao also closed the city gate and no longer went to war, so the two armies were deadlocked in Linzi, Yuan Shao wanted Liu Qing's grain and grass, but Liu Qing was waiting for Huang Zhong's news.

This morning, Liu Qing had nothing to do, he was really practicing dancing outside the camp, and suddenly Tai Shi Ci was Tai Shi Ci hurriedly ran over, smiled at Liu Qing and said, "Lord, there is good news."

"Ziyi, how many times have I said it, don't call me lord in private, the two of us are brothers, you just call me eldest brother" Liu Qing helped Tai Shici up while helping.

Tai Shici has also heard Liu Qing say it many times, but he just can't change it, and this time he was reminded by Liu Qing again, a little embarrassed, "Big brother, I know."

"Well, that's right, you must remember it in the future."

"Hehe, I know" Tai Shici nodded vigorously like a little brother, Liu Qing looked at Tai Shici's Gan appearance, a little embarrassed, "Okay, if there is any good news, just say it."

"Ah, I almost forgot" Tai Shi Ci patted his head and said, "Big brother, when you fell asleep last night, the blood demon once appeared, and they reported that General Huang Zhong had arrived a few miles away from the west gate of Linzi, lying in ambush in the dense forest waiting for your order."

"Uh. It's so fast, why didn't you say it earlier"

"Big brother forgive me, I just don't want to disturb your rest, so I'll ......"

"Hehe, okay, do I blame you, it's not okay to make a joke," Liu Qing interrupted Tai Shici's words and said.

"Ziyi, since they have arrived, don't let them hide, this time I want to defeat Yuan Shao openly, you send someone to deliver a letter now, tell Huang Zhong, let him see our signal, attack the city together, and attack back and forth, I can't Yuan Shao's Linzi is still an iron wall."

"No" Tai Shi Ci left excitedly.

When Liu Qing sent an order to Tai Shici to send a letter to Huang Zhong outside the western city of Linzi, he also sent someone to inform all the civil and military officials brought with him during the crusade against Yuan Shao, and asked them to gather in the tent.

Liu Qing took the first step to the Shuai tent and waited for a while, Wang Xiu, Sun Shao and others also came one after another, Liu Qing sat on the main seat, glanced at the people below with his wise eyes, and said with a faint smile on his face: "Everyone, my Jizhou army has occupied the two counties of Jinan and Le'an behind Yuan Shao, and now it has reached ten miles west of Linzi City, so now it is also the final stage of our crusade against Yuan Shao, the reason why I called you here is to listen, do you still have any opinions."

Hearing Liu Qing's words, all the people below were overjoyed.

"Lord, my subordinates think that before we attack Linzi, we should do some more things, otherwise if we attack strongly, we will be able to break through Linzi, but by then our army will definitely lose a lot of money."

"Well, Sun Shao, you really have insight, tell me, your suggestion" Liu Qing nodded in admiration after listening to Sun Shao's words, and then asked his suggestion.

Sun Shao did not shirk when he heard this, and respectfully saluted Liu Qing and said: "Lord, since our army has occupied Yuan Shao's rear, why don't you inform Yuan Shao of this news, I think if Yuan Shao knows that he has no way to retreat, he will definitely lose the mind to resist, and if Yuan Shao's subordinates know the news, their morale will also be greatly reduced, and then I will save a lot of effort and reduce the casualties of our army."

"Okay, good strategy, since you put forward this opinion, I'll leave it to you."

"Yes, my lord"

"Okay, you go and prepare now, and you can do this before noon, so that the timing of our army's attack on Yuan Shao's army will not be delayed," Liu Qing reminded Sun Shao again when he left.

After Sun Shao left, Liu Qing dealt with some small things simply, and others also put forward some small suggestions that could reduce casualties, and when Liu Qing was holding a meeting in the east of Linzi City, the soldiers he sent to deliver a letter to Huang Zhong had already arrived in front of Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong was overjoyed after reading Liu Qing's order, and immediately called Guo Jia to discuss, after Guo Jia was called by Huang Zhong's order, he showed embarrassment after reading Liu Qing's order.

"Strategist, what's wrong, is there something wrong with the lord's order?"

Guo Jia did not hide Huang Zhong, and replied after listening to Huang Zhong's words: "The general does not know, if our army and the army of the lord attack Linzi, the loss must be very large, and if Cao Cao takes the opportunity to attack, then we will have no power to fight back."

"Then is there any way Feng Xiao can stop Cao Cao from attacking?"

"Hehe, it's impossible for me to stop Cao Cao, but it's okay to reduce the casualties of the soldiers."

"Strategist, say it quickly, what can you do?"

"Hehe, so general, you pick a brave soldier to give Yuan Shao some gifts, I think Yuan Shao will not let us down when the time comes."

"Well, I don't know what kind of gift it is."

Guo Jia muttered a few times in Huang Zhong's ear when he heard this, Huang Zhong's face was a little unnatural when he heard this, "Military advisor, this is not good, the dead are great, how can we do this."

"Hehe, the general is a bit pedantic, and besides, I'm just returning things to their original owners, isn't it okay to exchange them for the lives of some living people?"

Huang Zhong was speechless when he heard this. Send gifts, shoot letters
