Chapter 8: Liu Xun takes the bait

Yangzhou, Jiujiang County, Hefei.

Hefei is located in the middle of Jiujiang County, is the Yangtze River and Huaishui between the important city, want to control the place of Jianghuai, you must first control Hefei, Hefei since ancient times is the place where the soldiers must fight, Hefei city is high and deep, the city defense is strong, it is the place of Jianghuai with a number of heavy cities.

There is an official road connection between Shouchun and Hefei, there are no dangerous places on the way, but there are many large and small cities, if Yuan Yao is intercepted in this section of the road, he can easily break out, turn around and return to Shouchun or go to Hefei to defend.

With the power of Liu Xun and Xu Xuan and others, they did not dare to underestimate the city defense of Shouchun or such a heavy city as Hefei, if they wanted to send troops to intercept Yuan Yao, they had to wait until Yuan Yao left such an important town as Hefei, otherwise if Yuan Yao defended the city and then asked Sun Ce in Jiangdong for help, they would have to go around without food.

Yuan Yao also grasped the minds of Liu Xun and the others, so he was sure to force them to the imaginary battlefield.

Three days later, Yuan Yao finally led the army to escort a series of convoys to Hefei, an important town in the Jianghuai River!

At this time, Yang Hong had already led a team of men and horses to secretly leave Shouchun and go to Xuchang to worship the Son of Heaven, of course, worshipping the Son of Heaven was just in name, and his main task was to replace Yuan Yao to go to Cao Cao to admit his mistakes, so that Cao Cao, the 'uncle', should not be with Yuan Yao. The eldest nephew's general knowledge; Lu Mian has also led the army to the Yinling area to take precautions, and by the way, he has inquired about the news of Xuzhou to see if Liu Bei has fallen out with Cao Cao; Zhang Xun has already led 6,000 soldiers and horses to secretly leave Shouchun and sneak to Chaoshan to ambush, and by the way, monitor the situation in the Chaoshan valley to see if Liu Xun and Xu Xuan's troops want to make a move in this area.

Just when Yuan Yao was looking at the big city in front of him, Li Siye rushed over with a horse and said, "Lord, Hefei is ahead, as expected, there are already people targeting us, do you want to deal with them first!" ”

Heh, is anyone finally here?

Yuan Yao smiled indifferently, turned around and looked at the endless convoy behind him, but after Shouchun made a lot of noise, he waited for two days before setting off, if there was such a long time, Liu Xun and the others couldn't react, then he really had nothing to say.

In order to win the trust of others, he also deliberately turned over a car at the gate of the city, revealing a box of gold, silver and jewelry, such a long convoy, so many 'gold and silver fine', and he and his uncle Yuan Yin personally appeared, I am afraid that no matter who it is, they will also believe that they are going to Jiangdong to take refuge in Sun Ce, right?

Since they are eyeing themselves near Hefei, they should be ambushing themselves in the Chaoshan area, and it seems that their plan can be successful!

Yuan Yao turned around and replied: "Don't worry about them, don't make more trouble at this time to avoid startling the snake, go directly to the city, rest in the camp in the city for the night, and continue to rush tomorrow." ”

Li Siye bowed his hand and said, "No, the last general will take the order!" ”

"The lord has an order, enter the city to rest, hurry up and speed up!"

Yuan Yao gave an order, the speed of the convoy increased a few points, and the team soon came to the outside of Hefei, at this time the guards and officials of Hefei were already waiting at the city gate.

Shouchun City is the capital of Yuan Shu before the founding of the country, Jiujiang County is equivalent to the place of the division, Hefei as the important city of the division, the appointed generals and officials are naturally Yuan's protégés. These protégés were still loyal to the Yuan family, and they have not rebelled against the Yuan family until now, and Hefei is still nominally under Yuan Yao's rule.

However, there are not many defenders in Hefei City, most of the original defenders have been drawn out by Yuan Shu and defeated, and now there are only 1,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the city, and the reason why Hefei has not been lost is because Sun Ce has not had time to take it, and others are afraid of Sun Ce's military strength and dare not take it.

Because of the prestige of others, he can keep his own city, and I have to say that this is also a kind of helplessness.

But fortunately, Yuan Yao has now integrated the military power left by Yuan Shu, and now he wants to return Sun Ce's jade seal, thinking that Sun Ce will not tear his face and use troops against Jiujiang County during this period of time, which can also give Yuan Yao a period of time to develop his power.

As long as Yuan Yao can defeat Liu Xun and seize Lujiang County, after he digests Lujiang County, he will be able to defend these territories with ease.

"I'll wait to see my lord!"

The guards and officials in Hefei also already knew about Yuan Yao's abandonment of the national title of emperor, so they did not make a farce of calling Yuan Yao His Majesty or His Royal Highness, the reason why they waited here early was just to find out if Yuan Yao really wanted to serve Jiangdong, and they should change their attitude appropriately.

However, he was about to face a big war, although Yuan Yao didn't look panicked at all, but his heart was already nervous, and now Yuan Yao didn't have time to chat with these people. Yuan Yao's attitude of these people is still uncertain, and it is impossible for him to discuss any major military and political affairs with them immediately, if there are any treacherous ghosts here, then Yuan Yao's plan will be over!

Yuan Yao is very clear about the consequences of not planning secretly, and everything will wait until tomorrow's battle is over.

If they return triumphantly tomorrow, these people will naturally return to their hearts, and there is no need to say anything; If the battle is defeated tomorrow, then everything will be suspended, and there will be no need to say anything more.

"Get up, let's go into the city first!"

Yuan Yao stopped at the city gate to greet everyone, and everyone got up and followed Yuan Yao into the city, after everyone entered the city, Yuan Yao turned his head to look at Yuan Yin, and ordered: "Uncle, I am unwell and want to rest early, so I will bother you and everyone to deal with it." ”

Yuan Yin knew that Yuan Yao's plan had reached a critical time, and now he must have a lot of things to do, this matter is related to the rise and fall of the Yuan family, and he naturally knows the seriousness of it.

Yuan Yin nodded and responded: "No, Your Majesty will receive the order, and the lord will go to rest first." ”

After Yuan Yao finished ordering Yuan Yin, he asked people to take him straight to the camp in the city, Yuan Yao had already come to Hefei before the news, and the guards and officials in the city had already prepared the camp.

After Yuan Yao led the convoy into the camp, he ordered Li Hu and Wang Bao to arrange for the soldiers to bury the pot and cook to rest, and he took Li Siye directly to the tent.

After the two entered the tent, Yuan Yao had not yet spoken, and Li Siye said first: "My lord, when I entered the camp just now, the messenger sent by General Zhang came to contact, whether to let him in now." ”

Oh?

Zhang Xun sent someone to come?

It seems that he must have found out some news, otherwise he would not have rushed to send someone.

"Bring her in quickly, and don't let anyone else see it."

"No, the last general will take the order, and I will bring him here personally."

After a while, Li Siye took a sergeant into the big tent, the sergeant fell to the ground, took out a letter and a token from his arms, and said: "Back to the lord, General Zhang ordered his subordinates to bring a secret letter to the lord, and this token is a token." ”

Yuan Yao asked Li Siye to take the token and the token and hand it to himself, and took a look at the token that he had agreed with Zhang Xun before, so he opened the secret letter and watched it, the content of the secret letter was that Zhang Xun was ambushed in the depths of Chaoshan Mountain, and at noon this day, he found a team of soldiers and horses entering the Chaoshan Valley for ambush, this team of soldiers and horses is Liu Xun's soldiers and horses, the number is about more than 10,000, the ambush soldiers are ambushed at both ends of the valley, it should be to wait until Yuan Yao's convoy enters the valley, and then suddenly kill Yuan Yao to intercept Yuan Yao in the valley.

Hmph, if you hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid you would have really gotten his way!

No wonder in history, Liu Xun was able to intercept Zhang Xun and others, and looted Yuan's relatives and subordinates to the territory of Lujiang, it seems that this person really has some ability.

But now that the prey has become a hunter, Shouchun's soldiers and horses have recovered their morale, and Yuan Yao is no longer the Yuan Yao in history!

If you dare to take the bait, then don't blame me for catching you!

Yuan Yao sneered a few times, put away the secret letter and returned the token to the sergeant, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, there will be a generous reward after this battle!" You should return to the mountain now, tell General Zhang, I already know the situation in the valley, let him not worry about my safety, act according to the plan tomorrow, and lead the army to kill after seeing the signal!" ”

When the sergeant was in the Shouchun campus, he had already seen Yuan Yao's generosity, and hundreds of thousands of money were sent down, and he was naturally very looking forward to the reward he said, and said happily: "Nuo, my subordinates have received orders, and I will return to Shanuchi to report to General Zhang." ”

"Well, heir, you take him out."

After Li Siye left the camp with the sergeant, he immediately returned to the tent and looked at Yuan Yao expectantly, Yuan Yao replied with a smile: "The big fish has been hooked, tomorrow is the time to close the net, Siye, tomorrow will see your performance!" ”

Li Siye smiled coldly and replied: "Hehe, the lord can rest assured that the final general will cut off the enemy's head for the lord!" ”
