When Liu Biao was woken up from his sleep, he was startled, and when he finished reading the military report, he was surprised and delighted, and he was more happy than surprised.

Although Yuan Tan was seriously injured, he was not worried about his life, but Sun Ce was unconscious, the biggest threat had been removed, and he no longer had to worry about Sun Ce suddenly appearing behind him. These days, he has been in charge of the military on his behalf, and the one he is most worried about is not Zhu Jun, but Sun Ce. I was afraid that Sun Ce would get rid of Yuan Tan and suddenly attack, making him the second Liu Bei.

"This guy is really good at fighting." Liu Biao sighed with emotion and was glad again, and said to Bian Rang, who rushed to hear the news: "With only 8,000 men, he not only swallowed Liu Bei's 5,000 men and defeated Jiang Qi with 10,000 people, but also fought with Yuan Yuanjun until he was defeated and injured, he is simply a genius." ”

Bian Rang was very unimpressed, feeling that Liu Biao was excusing him from losing Jingzhou. "Liu Bei is clumsy in using soldiers, and it is not worth mentioning. Jiang Qi hurriedly traveled hundreds of miles, the soldiers were tired, and he was careless for a while, and fell into Sun Ce's trick. As for Yuan Yuanjun, although he has more than 10,000 people, he may not be able to go all out. ”

Liu Biao was puzzled, and he was also very unhappy with Bian Rang's arrogance. What do you mean by this? Yuan Yuanjun was seriously injured, but he didn't go all out? ”

"Why don't you want to think about Zhang Fujun?" Bian Rang sneered: "How can it be so coincidental, yesterday Zhang Fujun just arrived at Xiaohuang, and Sun Ce broke through at night." Yuan Yuanjun and Sun Ce fought viciously until they were both defeated, but they didn't hear any movement from Zhang Fujun, is it okay? ”

Liu Biao's heart moved, and he picked up the military newspaper again. Yuan Tan did not mention Zhang Miao, which was by no means an oversight, but a deliberate omission. Zhang Miao led the army to support Yuan Tan, but why he did not participate in the battle is questionable in itself. If he hurried not to support Yuan Tan, but to support Sun Ce, then it would be explained.

If this is the case, then the contradiction between Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao is quite deep.

Liu Biao admitted that Bian Rang's reminder was reasonable, but he was very dissatisfied with Bian Rang's attitude. He was patient and said, "Sun Ce was repelled by Yuan Yuanjun and is now rushing towards Junyi. Yuan Yuanjun is injured, and he wants to contain Zhang Mengzhuo, I am afraid that he will not be able to pursue. Wenli, how do you think we should deal with it, if Sun Ce appears in Junyi, where will he attack? ”

Bian Rang stroked his beard and didn't say anything for a long time. Sun Ce was elusive, and there was no trace of his troops, so how did he know where Sun Ce might attack. Judging from the situation around Junyi, except for the south gate, the other three gates are possible. But if he said that, he would definitely be laughed at by Liu Biao. He thought about it for a long time, and finally chose the one that he felt was the most likely. "The East Gate has the least number of troops, Cheng Yu has never fought in battle, and he has no combat achievements at all, and Sun Ce is from the east, if he wants to attack, the most likely is naturally the East Gate."

Liu Biao smiled secretly, and Bian Rang always looked down on Cheng Yu, and still did not forget to demean Cheng Yu after analyzing the situation. He did have a point, Cheng Yu is indeed the weakest point that is most likely to be attacked, but now that Sun Ce is injured, how can he have the heart to attack Cheng Yu, so he naturally hurried back to the south side of the chasm and joined Zhu Jun. When the time comes, Cheng Yu and Bian Rang will definitely have another dispute, so it is better to send Bian Rang away as soon as possible.

Wen Li is reasonable, in this way, although Yuan Yuanjun's victory was more tragic, it is of great significance. Wenli, you are outstanding in literature, if this letter is written by you, it must be another eloquent article, and even Chen Kongzhang will be willing to bow down. ”

Bian Rang laughed, looking forward to himself.

Liu Biao said again: "It's a pity that Wenli is not by Yuan Yuanjun's side, so I have to let Lu Wenwei take the lead." ”

Bian Rang's face changed slightly, and then he arched his hand and said, "The envoy is injured, and we should go to visit." Brother Jingsheng has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and it is inconvenient to leave lightly, so it is better for me to convey it on his behalf. ”

Liu Biao was in the middle of it, wrote a letter in cursive, and asked Bian Rang to bring it to Yuan Tan. Bian Rang was worried that Lu Cui would take the lead, so he grabbed this good opportunity to make a fuss, and left in a hurry after getting the letter. Only then did Liu Biao convene the generals to discuss the matter and convey Yuan Tan's military report. Of course, he wouldn't mention the fact that Zhang Miao and Yuan Tan were separated, but he quietly relayed Bian Rang's words that he looked down on Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu's face changed at that time, and he cursed in a low voice.

Despite this, Liu Biao still reminded Cheng Yu to guard against Sun Ce and the Black Mountain thieves in the city. In the case of Liu Bei's surrender, Jiang Qi killed, and Yuan Tan seriously injured, the strength advantage of Yuan's army outside Junyi City was no longer obvious, and if you count the Black Mountain thieves in the city, they were already at a disadvantage. Although Sun Ce was seriously injured, the soldiers under his command did not suffer much losses, and they could still launch an attack to pick up the Black Mountain thieves out of the city. To this end, he is ready to transfer 3,000 people to support Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu couldn't ask for it, so he immediately rushed back to the camp and adjusted his position.

Cao Ang didn't dare to slack off. He doesn't have much pressure these days, that's because Sun Ce took away the elite, and only the five thousand yellow scarves led by Gong Du remained. Now that Sun Ce is back, the pressure on him has increased greatly. As soon as the meeting was over, he hurried away.

Zhu Ling confronted Zhu Jun in the south of the city and was unable to attend the meeting in person, so Liu Biao sent someone to convey the content of the meeting to Zhu Ling. After Zhu Ling received the news, he made a suggestion to Liu Biao: The most dangerous place is not Cheng Yubu, but the camp in the north of the city. The terrain in the east of the city is narrow, which is not conducive to the deployment of troops, Sun Ce has a thousand personal guard cavalry, and the north of the city is the most suitable for cavalry to charge and kill. After the cavalry was taken away by Yuan Tan, once the Chinese army without cavalry encountered the impact of cavalry, the consequences were unimaginable.

Liu Biao felt justified, and hurriedly withdrew the 3,000 people who were originally going to support Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu returned to the camp and easily adjusted his position, but he did not wait for the reinforcements arranged by Liu Biao. He waited uneasily, and sent someone to the Chinese army to ask, only to know that Zhu Ling had made a suggestion, and Liu Biao had changed his mind again. Cheng Yu was so angry that he looked up to the sky and sighed, and he didn't bother to get Liu Biao's explanation, so he quickly recovered his position, preparing to deal with Sun Ce alone, and prove his ability with his battle record.

Tossed back and forth, a day passed.

When Cheng Yu moved the camp outside the city, Zhang Fang kept watching from the city. He hadn't received the news yet, but judging from the frequent movements of Yuan Jun outside the city, it should be Sun Ce coming. Sun Ce once said that he would personally come to relieve the siege of Junyi, and now that the appointed time had arrived, and the battle was about to start, he was both excited and nervous.

"Wulu, do you think Sun Chao can arrive in time?"

Before Wulu could speak, the bitter chief took over. "Young Marshal, do you really regard him as Xinling Jun? Although it is Yimen here, there is no Hou Huan and Zhu Hai, and there is no Xinling Jun, in my opinion, the people in the court are unreliable, and in the end we have to kill ourselves. ”

Zhang Fang looked at the bitter chief and smiled. "You bitter chief, you've been in prison for too long, and you don't look like a good person. I don't know about others, Sun is still sure of his rebellion, since he said that he will come, he will definitely come. If you don't believe me, how about we make a bet? ”

"Bet on what?"

"If Sun rebels and relieves the siege of Junyi, and takes us out of the city, you will be my subordinate governor in the future. If he doesn't come, or if he can't break the siege when he comes, then I'll be your commander, how about it? ”

The Bitter Chief raised his palm. Seeing this, Zhang Fang also raised his palms and swore an oath with the bitter chieftain. The clapping was still in his ears, Zhang Fang's hand had not been put down, and a little handsome hurried to the city, panting and said: "Young marshal, the big thing is not good, I heard that Sun rebelled and Yuan Tan fought viciously and was seriously injured." ”

Zhang Fang raised his eyebrows and snorted: "Nonsense, how could Sun Weiwei be seriously injured, you must have heard it wrong." ”

The bitter chief looked at Zhang Fang proudly and laughed loudly. "Young marshal, do you want to raise the stakes again?"

Zhang Fang sneered: "Accompany you to the end." ”
