How Liu Biao greeted Yang Xiu will not mention it for the time being, in short, Yang Xiu and Liu Biao are now like that **, one is Lang Youqing, and the other is a concubine, it is simply a hit and it off, don't want it.

Within a few days, the two signed the alliance of Liu Jingzhou in a boat on the bank of the Han River under the city of Xiangyang.

Wang Li returned Wang Wei and a thousand remnants of the army to Liu Biao, and crowned Liu Biao as the Marquis of Chengwu. The places under Nanyang's rule: Xicheng, Nanxiang and Nanyang were officially incorporated into Sizhou, and Wang Li's territory changed again at the same time.

Yang Xiu was still touring in Jingzhou, but Xun You had already set off from Lu County to return to Luoyang.

Sending Xun You away from the camp, Cao Cao returned to the camp and looked at the soldiers and strategists under his command: "Zhongde, Yuan Chang, and Xuangao, do you think the intention of Gongda is feasible?" ”

Xuan Gao is Zang Ba, when the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zang Ba was under Tao Qian, and he was a meritorious official for killing thieves. After collecting troops in Xuzhou, and Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li and other gathering troops, Zang Ba appointed himself as the commander, stationed in the Kaiyang area, and became the famous Taishan Kou in history.

Because he couldn't get used to Liu Bei's benevolence and morality and Guan Yu's domineering appearance, he repeatedly bluntly admonished Tao Qian, attacked Tao Qian, and was squeezed out by Zhang Sanye, so he switched to Cao Cao with Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Chang.

Cheng Yu arched his hand to Cao Cao and admonished: "Lord, Xun Gongda is old and seeks the country, although this alliance with the lord is Wang Deyu's intention, Yu feels that what he said is not unreasonable." Since ancient times, the outside must first be settled, and the inside of the lord lies in Yanzhou and Jiyin.

The death of the captain is also quite sad for me. Emperor Restoration, Lü Bu, Zhang Miao and others were ambitious, but if the lord raised troops in Xuzhou, they would inevitably take advantage of the opportunity and point their swords at Rencheng and Shanyang.

And Xuzhou Tao is a mediocre person, he does not dare to be the enemy of the lord, if the lord is wielding his master, Yu believes that even if the two counties of Taishan and Peiguo are under Tao Qian's nose, he will never stretch out his greedy hand! ”

"But Tao Qian is not what it used to be, Liu Bei has always had great ambitions, if he wants to borrow the troops of Xuzhou and take advantage of the time when we wait for the troops to attack Jiyin, what about Koubian Peiguo and Taishan County?" Cao Cao thought for a moment and looked at Cheng Yu suspiciously.

"Don't worry, lord!" Zhong Xuan got up and said with a smile, "Liu Xuande is a person who values his name, and he always puts on a benevolent, righteous, and compassionate face. When the lord took revenge before, he persuaded the lord to withdraw his troops from Xuzhou, and the lord sold him a face, but now how dare he risk the world's disapproval and slap his face?

And we are waiting for the army to fight the puppet emperor, and Wang Deyu coincides with each other, Liu Xuande's foundation comes from Wang Deyu's Qinghe military source in the past, how dare he disobey Wang Deyu's orthodox name? What's more, when his subordinates heard that Tao Qian was seriously ill, Liu Xuande was only afraid that he would have no time to take care of him at this time, and he was looking at the fertile soil of Xuzhou! ”

"Ziyang, Berning, Zike, what do you mean?"

Liu Ye smiled at Man Chong and Lu Qian, and strode in front of Cao Cao: "Lord, Wang Deyu coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and now that this new emperor is in front of you, do you still plan to give him away?" You must not forget that Yuan Benchu is now looking at the building near the water! ”

"What if Yuan Benchu rescues with troops?"

"Since Wang Deyu has formed an alliance with the lord, it is natural for Wang Deyu to solve it!"

Cao Cao Huo got up and drew his sword, slashed his sword on the desk and shouted: "I order: Zhang Ji sits in Puyang, with Xiahou Yuan as the commander and Liu Ye as the military advisor, and leads Zhang Xiu, Cao Ren, Shi Lian, and Cao Xiu to lead 20,000 elite soldiers from Juancheng and Puyang to Juyang.

Xuan Gao and Sun Guan sat in Mount Tai, Zhong Xuan and Cao Zhenzhen

Shoulu County, the rest of the generals Xiahou, Changxi, Cao Hong, Cao Chun and others followed our soldiers to serve in the city and Shanyang, led 50,000 troops, Ke Chengwu, and Xiahou Yuan joined forces with Dingtao City, annihilated Lu Bu in one fell swoop, and captured the new emperor alive! ”

"No!"

……

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao's army has been divided into two ways and is heading towards Dingtao!"

"Your Majesty, Zhang Taishou was defeated, and the 20,000 troops under Xiahou Yuan have conquered Chengyang and Juyang; General Lu was defeated by Cao Cao's 50,000 army, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses have arrived in Chengwu and Shan Father two counties, whether we stick to Dingtao or leave Chenliu, please make a decision as soon as possible! ”

Listening to the battle reports coming from the front, Emperor Weixin looked at Chen Gong, Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and others with a pale face, and asked anxiously: "Ladies and gentlemen, Cao Cao's army is menacing, and the soldiers in front of him cannot resist it, what decision do you think I should make now?" ”

Chen Gong bowed to Emperor Weixin and said, "Your Majesty, we are waiting for a peaceful place to live, with less than 50,000 troops, and there are only General Lu, Zhang Taishou and others, and there are few real generals." So, if I wait to keep the pottery, I'm afraid I'll become the one in the urn..."

"Boldly Chen Gongtai, who dares to be disrespectful to His Majesty, what crime should he be guilty of!"

Dong Cheng shouted angrily, Emperor Weixin had already waved his hand, at this time, where did he have time to find trouble in Chen Gong, to save his life, and to make a comeback is the top priority: "Gongtai, in your opinion, could it be that I should abandon Dingtao and go to Chenliu?" ”

Chen Gong shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, Chen Liuguo is not in danger to defend, once Dingtao is defeated by Cao thief, how can Chen Liuguo resist?" ”

"Is it possible, I'm waiting for death in Dingtao?" Emperor Xin's face was slightly displeased.

I think that when he scolded Wang Li in Chang'an City, what a pride and ambition, and what a hunting blood? Now that he has fled from Chang'an to Yanzhou for only half a year, not only is he like a lost dog as always, but now he can't even save his life, which makes him, a prosperous man in his heart, and vow to be a "Ming Jun" of the Han generation.

Chen Gong simply walked to the desk chair of the Emperor of the Restoration, pointed to the map on the desk and explained: "Your Majesty, Weichen's intention is not to stay in Dingtao, nor to flee to Chenliu, but to let His Majesty jump out of Yanzhou and go to Jizhou!" ”

"Jizhou Yuan Shao?"

"Exactly! Yuan Benchu has now unified Jizhou, sitting on a fertile field for thousands of miles, it can be said that the soldiers are full of food, the ministers are like rain, and the fierce generals are like forests. Although the Cao thief is brave, he is only a few counties, tens of thousands of horses, how can he resist the original soldiers? ”

Emperor Weixin rubbed his forehead, sighed, turned to Dong Cheng and Fu Wan on the side, and said, "Has the messenger sent to Jizhou ever returned?" What did Yuan Benchu say? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the messenger just turned back to Dingtao yesterday."

After Fu finished walking quickly in front of Emperor Weixin, he leaned over and played: "The messenger said, Wang Deyu went down to Nanyang with 10,000 elite soldiers in a few battles a month ago, and now he is stationed in the army, personally leading an army of 80,000, and Zhao Yun, Zhang, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong and Tai Shici and other generals are in Wei County and Yangping County.

Yuan Benchu's 100,000 troops were stationed in Wei County, but he did not dare to act rashly and entered the Puyang area of Cao Thief at will, hoping that His Majesty could go to Wei County on his own, and they would join His Majesty in Baimajin, Liyang! ”

This special retribution is coming too quickly, isn't it? I was afraid of being slapped in the face by Wang Li just now, so I let Yuan Shao give a big ear scraper in an instant!

Hearing this, Emperor Xinxin sat down on the desk. Three months ago, when Cao Cao's troops attacked Jiyin, Yuan Shao sent Shen Pei, Yan Liang and others to Dingtao to welcome him into Jizhou.

But, at that time myself

But he was also afraid that Yuan Benchu would become the second "Dong Zhuo", and Lu Fengxian was also worried that without his own support, it would be difficult to continue to become Yuan Shao's vassal, so the two hit it off and politely declined Yuan Shao's invitation. As a result, after going around in a big circle, I still got back to the starting point, and I had to send it to the door myself! I knew this was the case, why was I so hypocritical that day?

Emperor Weixin slammed his fist on the desk, temporarily swallowed the unwillingness in his heart, and turned to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, now Cao Cao's 80,000 troops are encircling, and if you want to go from Dingtao to Baimajin, you need to go through Juyang and Lihu, which is the attack range of Xiahou Yuan under Cao Thief, can it be hindered?" ”

Chen Gong drew a line on the map with a pen, connected several points, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, from Dingtao to Liyang and Baimajin, Juyang is not the only avenue, nor is it the only way for us to wait. Your Majesty, please see, if we wait for the soldiers to make a grievance, enter Chen Liuguo, and then transfer from Jiyang (not Jiyang, Jingzhou) to Pingqiu and Changheng, it will only be ten miles away from Baimajin. At that time, our army will make another sharp charge, day and night! ”

Emperor Weixin nodded, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and then asked, "It is much safer to walk along the way of Chenliu, but it is more than a hundred miles farther than Juyang. You also said that there is no danger in Chen Liuguo, if it is Cao thief, how to solve it? ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Weichen has a plan." Chen Gong patted his chest and said.

"What's the plan?"

"Ming Xiu plank road, dark Chen Cang!"

……

It's night, Chengwu County, Lu Bu camp.

Li Ru whispered twice in Lu Bu's ear, Lu Bu nodded, glanced at the generals, and finally landed on the new deputy general Han Qi: "Vice General Han, this general has just received a detailed report, and the Cao thief may rob my camp tonight." The general intends to make plans and treat others in the way of others.

General Ben tonight, three generals, Wei Yue, Li Feng and Zhu Yi, went to Cao Ying to set up an ambush, but I needed a general in my camp to sit on guard and fight against the thieves for several hours. You are the deputy general personally nominated by His Majesty, and now that this general has entrusted you with such an important task, do you dare to accept it? ”

"Hmph, why don't you dare?" Han Qi had a black face and a beard, his eyes were like copper bells, and he looked at Lu Bu unruly, "Former general, although the last general is not as brave as you, he is also a hot-blooded man, and he was personally awarded the deputy general by His Majesty, not to mention holding on for a few hours, even if he alone resists tens of thousands of Cao Jun Han will not retreat to death!" ”

Lu Bu handed the arrow to Han Qi with his own hand, and praised with his palm: "Okay, what a Han Qi!" Sure enough, he is worthy of being a brave general personally mentioned by His Majesty! In this case, the general will leave you with 5,000 elite soldiers, and you must hold out from the time of the child to the end of tomorrow, and when the general returns from victory, he will personally celebrate with you! ”

"No! Former general, but please rest assured, the last general will let that Xiahou and Cao Chun come and go! Han Qi took the arrow, and the hammer of his hands on his chest sounded.

Li Ru shook his head and brushed his beard, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes: "Vice General Han, Li has a plan, you may want to give it a try!" ”

"Wen Xian is a student, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, and the general will not dare to disobey!"

"Tonight thou shalt hang sheep in your tent and play drums, and put more hay and flakes, but thou shalt lie on both sides of the camp with thy army. Wait for the arrival of Xiahou and Cao Chun's army, and then take advantage of the chaos with fire attack, Cao's army will inevitably be defeated, or it can also kill Xiahou and Cao Chun's heads! ”

"Mr. Tuo Jiyan, if the last general can get lucky to get the head of the second thief, he will definitely not get drunk with Mr. and will not return!" Han Qi laughed, his voice loud and rough, like a hungry tiger devouring people in the middle of the night.
