After a while, Pang Tong followed Yue Yun and hurried over, and said urgently: "I just heard from General Xiaoyue that Jiangdong Sun Ce personally raised an army of 100,000 to attack our three counties, and now he has reached Wuhu?" ”

Yuan Yao chuckled lightly and said, "Well, this is indeed the case, and Sun Ce should have arrived in Wuhu by now!" But Shiyuan doesn't need to worry, Lu Su is already waiting for him in Wuhu, with Lu Su's talent, he will definitely be able to delay Sun Ce for a while, and when he gets the battle report of our army and knows that we have forced back the Xuzhou army, he will definitely not dare to attack the territory of our three counties! ”

After listening to Yuan Yao's words, Pang Tong's heart was also a lot lighter, and he responded with a smile: "Fortunately, the lord has already planned, not only captured the land of the four counties of Huainan within three days, but also managed to force back Guan Yu's army, otherwise the land of my three counties will be in danger!" Now that the battle of Xuzhou has been understood, as long as the lord returns to the army and goes south, Sun Ce will definitely not dare to continue the march. The lord dedicated the land of Guangling, which can be regarded as giving Sun Ce and Jiangdong a step down, and they should accept it if they think they should meet it! ”

Pang Tong quickly grasped the point of Yuan Yao's words, and asked suspiciously, "Lu Su? The lord said Lu Su, but Huainan Lu Zijing? ”

Yuan Yao nodded in response: "What's the matter, Shi Yuan has also heard of this person?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Huainan Lu Zijing, this person is also famous, it is said that he is brave and knowledgeable, with outstanding vision and resourcefulness, even Sun Ce has borrowed grain and grass from him when he raised his army, with this person as a lobbyist, I want to come to Jiangdong soldiers and horses should be worry-free!" ”

When Pang Tong said this, he bowed his hand and said: "The name of the corporal of the Lord Lixian has spread far and wide, and now the talents from all walks of life have come to vote, which is really gratifying!" Congratulations to the lord for getting a good talent again! ”

Yuan Yao laughed a few times and said: "Hahahaha, Shiyuan's words are very much in line with my wishes, I think so too, with Zijing as a lobbyist, Jiangdong soldiers and horses will definitely be worry-free!" Now the battle of Xuzhou has nothing to do with my army, Sun Ce's garrison in Wuhu just gave me a reason to retreat, I plan to let Zhang Xutuo move to Huailing, and I will lead the army back to Dongcheng to sit and watch the times, what do you think? ”

Pang Tong pondered for a moment and said: "The lord is stationed in Huailing, whether it is Liu Bei or Cao Cao, they will definitely stare at the lord's every move; If the lord returns to the eastern city to beware of Sun Ce, they will look at each other and ignore the lord! Now that Sun Ce is raising troops to attack, this is a good time for the lord to withdraw from the whirlpool of Xuzhou, and the minister agrees with the lord's opinion, at this time the lord should lead the army back to Dongcheng, so as to prevent Sun Ce from taking risks to attack my three counties! ”

Yuan Yao immediately ordered: "Shiyuan, quickly send an order to Zhang Xutuo, and ask him to leave a battalion of soldiers and horses in Xuyi to garrison, and then lead the rest of the soldiers and horses to Huailing in the starry night to change guards with me!" ”

Pang Tong bowed down and responded: "No, the minister receives the order, and this will make people go to pass the order!" ”

……

Huailing County and Xuyi County are adjacent to each other, and the fast horse went to pass the order but more than an hour of kung fu arrived, Zhang Xutuo heard that Sun Ce was coming, Yuan Yao asked him to go to take over the defense of Huailing City, and he was in a hurry, and hurriedly left a battalion of soldiers and horses to garrison Xuyi, and led the rest of the soldiers and horses to quickly pull out the camp and go straight to Huailing City in the starry night.

Zhang Xutuo led the army to travel dozens of miles at night, and rushed to the outside of Huailing City in the early morning, Yuan Yao ordered Zhang Xutuo to take over the city defense and guard carefully, and then ordered Yang Zaixing to point up the personal guards, and the army went straight to the east city after burying the pot and cooking.

。。。。。。

Jiangdong, Danyang County, Wuhu City, Jiangdong Army Camp.

Sun Ce squinted his eyes slightly and leaned on the top of the slump, and said, "Gong Jin, two days have passed, how is the battle situation in Xuzhou and the military situation in Lujiang County?" ”

Zhou Yu sat aside and replied: "Returning to the lord, the direction of Xuzhou is indeed as Lu Su said, Yuan Yao did not take advantage of the situation to march across the Huaishui after capturing the four counties of Huainan, Guan Yu led 20,000 Xuzhou troops to meet Yuan Yao, but when he crossed the river, he was ambushed by Yuan Yao, and was defeated and lost by Yuan Yao's army. At present, Guan Yu has set up a large camp north of Huaishui, and is confronting Yuan Yao's army on the Huailing line, and Xuzhou is engaged in Jian Yong, who is also in Guan Yu's army, and the last general estimates that Liu Bei is likely to have reached an agreement with Yuan Yao secretly. ”

"The three counties of Lujiang are heavily guarded, our army scouts have lost dozens of horsemen to find out the military situation of the three counties, and at present, all the cities of the three counties have been prepared, and Huang Zhong, the general of Jingzhou, led 10,000 soldiers and horses to enter Wuwei to cut off the waterway into Chaohu Lake, and my army may not be able to win quickly if we want to attack the land of the three counties of Lujiang."

When Sun Ce heard that Yuan Yao had defeated Guan Yu and Liu Bei had reached an agreement, he was immediately furious and said, "What? Guan Yu's army was also defeated by Yuan Yao? Guan Yu's reputation for being brave and good at fighting has spread all over the world, but he didn't expect to be defeated by Yuan Yao, it's really in vain! ”

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and said: "Yuan Yao's soldiers are brave, Guan Yu despises Yuan Yao, and Yuan Yao seized the opportunity to cross the river rashly, and it is natural that he will be defeated, but this is how it comes, my army is ......."

Just as Zhou Yu was talking to Sun Ce, he suddenly heard shouts outside.

"Lord, Xuzhou urgent! Lord, something is wrong, lord! ”

Sun Ce frowned, and shouted angrily: "What's going on outside, let this person come in and talk." ”

A sergeant hurriedly rushed into the account, bowed to the ground, and said urgently: "Back to the lord, Xuzhou has just sent back the news that Yuan Yao led 10,000 soldiers and horses to leave Huailing, and has now retreated to the area of Dongcheng!" ”

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were shocked when they heard that Yuan Yao had returned to Jiujiang County, Zhou Yu rubbed his forehead and said: "Yuan Yao returned to the eastern city of the army, it seems that he has really reached an agreement with Liu Bei in secret, I expect that the Guan Yu army north of Huaishui must have also retreated, and the Xuzhou army camp must be an empty camp!" Lord, now that the opportunity to attack the three counties of Lujiang has been lost, it seems that our army can only turn around and go north to attack Guangling County! ”

"Abominable !!"

"Hateful !!"

Sun Ce put the book in his hand on the table with a 'snap', and said: "The three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang have a false name, Yuan Yao Xiao'er is even more hateful, and Cao Cao's traitor is even more damned!! ”

Zhou Yu waited for a while, and saw that Sun Ce's anger had calmed down, so he said, "Lord, did you summon Lu Su to come for a while?" ”。

Now there is no chance to attack the three counties of Lujiang, and Sun Ce can only plot against Guangling County, otherwise his dispatch of troops this time will really become a joke!

If you want to attack Guangling County, if there is Yuan Yao's strategy, this battle will be much easier, Sun Ce did not completely lose his mind, snorted coldly, and said: "Go, send someone to summon Lu Su to come, and say that I want to discuss the matter of Guangling County with him!" ”
