The autumn wind is blowing, the cold wind is blowing, and the flag is hunting.

In the night, Yuan Yao led Wu'an Guotai Shi Ci and his soldiers back to Anhui City.

"Your Majesty, do you think Gan Ning and Dong Xi will not return to Anhui City with our army after absconding?" Wu Anguo asked worriedly, Gan Ning and Dong Xi are water bandits after all, and if they surrender, they will not be taken away directly, but they will take the initiative to defect, no matter what Wu Anguo thinks, he doesn't think it is reliable.

"I have to." Yuan Yao sighed lightly, after Gan Ning returned to the army, the task that Yuan Yao had to give him was extremely severe, and Yuan Yao couldn't be entrusted with a heavy task just by his understanding of Gan Ning, and it was a test to let him go back and sort it out this time.

It's a pity that no one can tell these words.

"Your Majesty, I think Gan Xingba is a character, and he won't come and defect." Tai Shici on the side couldn't help frowning when he heard Wu Anguo's question, and spoke.

"What, do you believe Gan Xingba?" Yuan Yao asked Tai Shici very indifferently.

"In my opinion, if Gan Xingba is not a heroic figure, how could you have driven the expedition in person, Your Majesty?" Tai Shi Ci's eyes showed a cunning color, and he said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I think that after I return to Anhui City at the latest, this Gan Xingba and Dong Yuandai will definitely lead the crowd to vote." ”

"Could it be that Gan Ning really talks so much about credit?" Wu Anguo next to him scratched his head and asked puzzledly, "It's just a water bandit......

"Brother Tenglan, you are wrong, do you know that the word 'righteousness' always comes first in the affairs of the rivers and lakes?"

"......"

Seeing that the two goods were about to be pinched, Yuan Yao interrupted the conversation between the two brothers and said with a smile, "If he comes to vote, I will award him the official position of a general and treat him with meritorious courtesy, if he doesn't come, I can only doubt his character." ”

The two of them stopped muffling their voices.

"I'm sure he'll come, though." Yuan Yao said to himself.

On the Yangtze River route, the army marched for two days, and in the afternoon of the second day, Yuan Yao and others finally returned to Anhui City.

"Is there something about you in such a hurry?" Wu Anguo asked on the side.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Jiangdong Sun Ce only took two days to break through Jiangxia, the defenders of Shiyang and Chibi surrendered, Jingzhou reinforcements, Huang Zu, Wen Ping and others had no choice but to retreat into the mainland, and the eastern part of Jingzhou faced the Jiangdong Navy Army." Liu Ye could have imagined that Jingzhou would be defeated by Zhou Yu's powerful destruction, but he didn't expect Jingzhou to lose so badly, so he even said with some incomprehension.

Yuan Yao only felt that his head had exploded, he originally thought that Jiangxia would last for another ten days and a half months, and he would be able to prepare, but he didn't expect that it would only be five days, and he only went back and forth to collect Gan Ning for five days, and he heard such a tragic news about Jiang Xia.

Jiangxia was broken, Chibi Shiyang all fell into the hands of Jiangdong, it can be said that the gate of Jingzhou was completely opened, from Jiangxia straight into Jingzhou, there is no danger to defend, just a duel of troops.

Yuan Yao figured out the crux of the problem in a blink of an eye, and even if Jiangdong attacked Jingzhou at this moment, because Jingzhou would have a lot of grain, I am afraid that it would be difficult to take Jiangdong by the end of the year, so Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's next plan must be a relatively weak self......

Because he has very little food, and the general breaks it with his fingers......

Yuan Yao was about to cry. "Jiangxia Huang Lao'er and cousin Jingzhou, are you pigs? The soldiers were beaten into a bear by Zhou Yu, which really blinded my 24k titanium alloy dog eyes! ”

Liu Ye saw that Yuan Yao was deep in thought and continued.

"Your Majesty, and Jiangdong Sun Ce has led 20,000 sailors under his command and 20,000 troops from Jiangxia to carry the momentum of a great victory, down the river, and towards Wancheng," Liu Ye's face was full of gloom, "The sailor is powerful, and the army will be able to come to Wancheng in only three days......

Yuan Yao's lips twitched, and he couldn't help asking, "Who is in charge of the vanguard, and how many people are there?" If the vanguard came so early, can our army break the vanguard first? ”

"The vanguard is led by the two generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, leading an army of 10,000 to go first," Liu Ye immediately replied, "Your Majesty, although the vanguard is far away from the army, but at this moment, Hulin, Sanjiang and other places, there are also Sun Quan, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Sun Jing, Sun Fu and other generals to assist, 20,000 troops Chen Army on the south bank of the Yangtze River, if the vanguard attacks Wancheng, Sun Quan is bound to come across the river, and at that time, our army will be besieged by more than 30,000 troops in Jiangdong." ”

"Judging from the current situation of grain and grass in Wancheng, our army will not be able to support it for half a month at most, and the army will break up and flee."

"Damn, are you sure you're not kidding me?" Yuan Yao's face was as ugly as eating a fly. "More than 30,000 troops in Jiangdong have blocked the east, west and south of Anhui City."

Don't tell me that there is still the north, if you go north, you have to run back to your mother's house, and after surrounding the three queyi, these hungry wolves in Jiangdong at the north gate are not ambushed.

It's a dog!

Yuan Yao's face turned pale. He asked softly, "Can you only retreat to Huainan?" ”

Liu Ye stared at Yuan Yao's gaze, his face was also pale, and his voice was a little cold, "Your Majesty, Jiangdong Sun Ce, is determined to force me to retreat to Huainan!" ”

"Anhui City, there is no doubt that it will be defeated......"

Yuan Yao naturally understood Liu Ye's thoughts, "I captured Anhui City, and also attacked Hulin and Sanjiang, so it was obviously a signal to start a war with Jiangdong, but Sun Ce didn't eat that at all, and it turned out to be the biggest failure?" ”

No matter if Yuan Yao still has no regrets, after all, he captured Anhui City, got the big and small two Qiao, and killed Zhu Zhi. If he chooses again, then Yuan Yao believes that he will not hesitate to do this.

"I gave Sun Ce such a loud sole, it's strange that Sun Ce doesn't hold grudges, he originally fought with Jiang Xia, and if he didn't return to the army, he wanted to defeat Jiang Xia in one fell swoop, but Jiang Xia's rout was too fast, and Liu Ye was a little overwhelmed." Yuan Yao couldn't help but mutter. "In this way, if you stick to Lujiang, it will definitely be a fatal situation."

Yuan Yao's eyes were deep, he looked at Liu Ye, and asked cautiously and uncertainly again, "Mortal situation?" ”

Liu Ye was speechless, just nodded.

Yuan Yao and Liu Ye glanced at each other, and then asked a little awkwardly, "Master Military Master doesn't have any strategy at all?" ”

Liu Ye bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Ye has sent three eloquent people, one to Xudu to find Cao Cao, the other to Jingbei to find Zhang Xiu, and the last person was secretly sent to Jiangdong by me to spread the remarks that Jiangdong Sun Quan intended to kill his brother and seize power, and then went to Jiaozhou to contact the local Shanyue with the intention of causing him to rebel......"

Liu Ye couldn't help but smile bitterly after finishing speaking, although he came up with such three strategies, in fact, it was just to try his luck, as for the final result, Liu Ye could guess it.

"Cao Cao is in Guandu, and far water can't quench his thirst; And Zhang Xiu is brave and unscrupulous, and Jia Xu's poison under his command will definitely not be willing to help save me Huainan, and even as Liu Biao's north gate guard dog, Ye believes that if Liu Biao is besieged at this moment, it will be good if Zhang Xiu does not fall into the well; At this moment, Liu Biao in Jingzhou must be in a hurry, intending to seize Jiangxia, which is useless; Liu Pi and Gong both occupied Runan, which was the closest to our army, but they were all remnants of the Yellow Turban, and none of them could be of great use. ”

"And although Jiaozhou Shanyue is brave, moreover, with developed limbs and a simple mind, when Sun Ce attacked Shanyue, Shanyue He Qi was a general, He Qi was very strong, and killed countless people when Shanyue was in turmoil, Shanyue was terrified, because it is difficult for the current Shanyue people to be used as gun......men by our army" Liu Ye couldn't help but shake his head, he was under pressure, and Yuan Yao said with a wry smile.

"Your Majesty, looking at the general trend of the world, this time Jiangdong Sun Ce marched on the Yangtze River, approaching Anhui City, the sword pointed to Huainan, if our army resisted to the death in Lujiang, I am afraid that Jiangdong Sun Ce and Cao Cao's wish will be fulfilled, and after our army retreats to Huainan, the probability of Cao's army sending troops will increase significantly."

Liu Ye continued to talk eloquently, "Cao Cao would rather wait for me to block Jiangdong for him in Huainan than a young man like an overlord bordering his territory. ”

"So, as long as you retreat to Huainan, everything can be reversed, but ...... It was still after the strength of our army was sharply reduced, and the snipe and clam competed with each other, and Cao Cao, the fisherman, could benefit. Liu Ye stroked his beard, he had already figured out the thoughts of the various princes.

Yuan Yao's eyes couldn't help but turn, he naturally understood what Liu Ye said, it was nothing more than an intrigue between the princes, but Lujiang, Yuan Yao was absolutely unwilling to give up, not to mention anything else, it was these scholars in Wancheng, it was a rare wealth, Huainan was in war a few years ago, and many scholars had already moved, but Wancheng had a big family like the Lu family.

As the old saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is unrealistic for thousands of years of class antagonism between the scholars and the children of the Han family, at least in our land of China, after two thousand years, the class children were finally overturned, and the serfs turned over and sang......

Therefore, Yuan Yao had to think about it for the future, he Yuan Yao wanted to point to the world, not just live in Huainan and be a duke. He didn't want to retreat, and his goal made him unable to retreat, Anhui City was captured by him once, if it was obtained by Jiangdong this time, Sun Ce would definitely have a heavy army on Lujiang here, and then he really called every day should not be, and the earth was not working.

Even the Yangtze River, which can transport house materials, has no place of its own, and Huainan will die when the time comes, and an ant sandwiched between the two walls will almost be trampled to death with one foot.

"Do you have to retreat to Huainan?" Yuan Yao groaned, and when he heard Liu Ye's words, he was indeed suddenly opened, if he had his father's hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, Yuan Yao would have started without saying a word, but at this moment, he was weak, and he had been cornered.

"Your Majesty, part of the people of Lujiang has been transferred to Jiangdong, and the other part has been transferred to Huainan, and at this moment, the mood of the Wancheng scholars is fluctuating, and the mood is not stable, it is not ruled out that there will be a possibility of Jiangdong tradition, and Lujiang at this moment is just an empty shell. Your Majesty, retreating to Huainan at this moment is the best possibility. ”

How could Liu Ye not know what Yuan Yao was thinking? But only when you have a life, you can not be afraid of running out of firewood, but even if you really get Runan at that time, I am afraid it will be difficult to have the strength to fight with Sun Ce, because Runan has been destroyed by the Yellow Turban. Moreover, Nanyang Wancheng still has Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, who is ambitious and does not pay for his life, and when the time comes, Huainan has to struggle.

"It's a similar situation." Yuan Yao smiled bitterly, he encountered this kind of scene when he came through, he was struggling, he had nowhere to hide, and even at that time, Yuan Yin was still trying to persuade himself to go to Yuan Shao, and persuaded him to go to Sun Ce.

In the blink of an eye, more than five months had passed, but he still had to think about this kind of problem.

"It's too a failure!" Yuan Yao smiled bitterly, there were more generals under his command, Tai Shici, Wu Anguo, Chen Zhi, Lu Mian, Gan Ning, Dong Xi, and Bao Long, and he got Yuan Yin's heart, and he was assisted by Liu Ye, a top strategist, he still had to choose to escape.

Yuan Yao was about to cry, "Where is there such a play?" ”

Other people's dicks and silk crossings are all for counterattacks, and if you come yourself, you will suffer from it, right?

"I still want to fight for the world, I don't want to be difficult!" Yuan Yao was already getting drunk, he had a group of civil and military generals under his command, and more than 25,000 soldiers and horses to assist, but he was still a weak man among a group of hungry wolves around him.

"That's enough of the!"

Last time, he Yuan Yao didn't retreat, but this time, he Yuan Yao still can't retreat!

After Liu Ye was bitter, seeing that Yuan Yao hadn't answered yet, he paused and asked, "This?" Your Majesty, what do you mean? ”

"We're not going anywhere!" Yuan Yao's eyes showed a blazing light, since there were only two choices, war and grievance, Yuan Yao would rather fight! Yuan Yao would rather fight.

"We will stay in this Anhui city, and we will not withdraw from the Lujiang River!" Yuan Yao said firmly.

Suddenly, all the civil and military officers were a little surprised, and the eyes of the generals showed a blazing light, after all, Liu Ye had explained it very clearly just now, but among the civil and military forces, only Huang Yi and Zhang Xun were thoughtful.

Because, they have heard what they said just now, they are very familiar with it, and they are very touched!

Five months ago, His Majesty led them out of a road and surrendered a lot of civil and military forces, and five months later, Zhang Xun knelt on one knee on the ground, his face full of anticipation!

Only the two of them know that this is ...... Trust! The trust that comes out of life and death.
