More than ten miles away in front of Hangu Pass.

Now the camp is towering, endless, in the night, the burning torches, fire plates, so that the camp everywhere seems very bright, like an endless long snake.

In the center of the main camp, two large flags were erected, one banner was embroidered with the word 'Yuan', and the other was embroidered with the word 'Liu'.

Many patrolling soldiers are walking outside; Moreover, around the battalions, flags were waving.

This is where the combined forces of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao are located.

When he led the army from Luoyang, he also rushed to the front of Hangu Pass, because it was late, so he directly set up camp.

Moreover, according to the investigation reports they sent and the news they found, there were 50,000 Qin troops in Hangu Pass, which was the defender of Tongguan, led by Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, and Pang Tong.

In this way, it is also necessary to discuss the matter of seizing Hangu Pass.

They can't take Hangu Pass, and they can't continue to move forward, seize Tongguan, so as to enter Chang'an City and get rid of Qin Yin.

Yuan Shao's tent.

Now Yuan Shao and Liu Biao are sitting opposite each other, and on the desk in front of them, there is also a cup of hot tea emitting white smoke.

"At the beginning, now the Qin army has been prepared in Hangu Pass, and Qin Yin is also personally leading an army of 100,000 people, about to reach Tongguan, once the two armies converge, if you want to capture Hangu Pass, it will not be so easy, the most critical thing, the Qin army that is capturing the land of the Southern Barbarians and still staying in Yizhou is now coming out of Jianning and Hanzhong!" Liu Biao said with a nervous look.

Although he agreed to unite with Yuan Shao, it was also an idea that he only had under certain circumstances, and now Qin Yin obviously wanted to seize his Jingzhou land.

Let the soldiers and horses who are still in Yizhou divide into two routes, ready to attack his territory.

Even if there is already an arrangement, there is still worry in his heart, after all, if Jingzhou falls, he unites with Yuan Shao and takes Qin Yin, there is no meaning, there is no benefit.

"Liu Zhoumu can rest assured, this is not within the scope of our arrangement, Qin Yin is like this, he just wants to disturb Liu Zhoumu's mind."

"Qin Yin is in Yizhou, and there are only tens of thousands of soldiers who can fight, and the soldiers are divided into two ways, that is, they want Liu Zhoumu to lead the army back to help, and with Liu Zhoumu's arrangement in Shangyong and Wuling, as long as they stick to it, is it not enough to keep the Qin army outside?"

"As long as you hold on for half a month, it will be enough for you and me to capture Chang'an and capture Qin Yin, so that the Qin army attacking Jingzhou will naturally retreat!"

Yuan Shao confidently analyzed.

He knew it.

Although Liu Biao raised troops with him, he did not go all out, and there was still a large army to defend the important passes in Jingzhou in case of accidents.

Not only to guard against the Qin army, but also to guard against Jiangdong, heavy troops were deployed in Jiangling.

Obviously, he was worried that when attacking Chang'an, there would be a change, and now it has been proved that his arrangement was not wrong, and the Qin army, which recovered the Nanban in Yizhou and rushed back to Chang'an, did not continue to rush back, but divided into two roads and went towards the land of Jingzhou.

"Having said that, I still have a lot of anxiety in my heart!" Liu Biao said worriedly.

He does have an arrangement, but everything has a contingency, and he dares to guarantee it 100%, but he doesn't want to lose his base camp because of this.

There was also a trace of regret in his heart, and on the spur of the moment, he agreed to Yuan Shao and raised troops to fight against Qin Yin.

"Why should Liu Zhoumu worry about it!" Yuan Shao glanced at Liu Biao and continued: "As long as you and I can take Qin Yin and capture Chang'an, then we can get everything, so why care too much." ”

"Besides, does Liu Zhoumu think that if he retires at this time, Qin Yin will let you and me go? Even if there is no matter this time, and the matter between Liu Zhoumu and Han Sui, Qin Yin will not let Liu Zhoumu go, and when the time comes, he will definitely wave his troops to fight against Liu Zhoumu. ”

It's all up to now.

He didn't want Liu Biao's heart to be chaotic, otherwise, everything he did would have no meaning.

Once Liu Biao retreats, then Liu Bei may also retreat, at that time, it is difficult to crusade against Qin Yin by relying on his strength, after all, he still needs to guard against Cao Cao.

Now that Qin Yin's power is getting bigger and bigger, it also makes him feel very bad, and he can't let Qin Yin go on like this.

Otherwise, if you want to suppress Qin Yin again, it will become impossible, and you will be suppressed by Qin Yin.

"But...!"

Although what Yuan Shao said was very reasonable, Liu Biao was still not at ease.

He knew that, as Yuan Shao said, even if he didn't unite with Yuan Shao and raise troops together, sooner or later Qin Yin would crusade against him, and at that time, with him alone, he might not be the opponent of the Qin army.

Therefore, when receiving Yuan Shao's secret letter, he will have the idea of unity.

Dealing with Qin Yin together.

I think so.

But there is still uneasiness in his heart, if he doesn't have troops, at least in a short time, Qin Yin will not use troops against his Jingzhou.

However.

Before he could say anything, he was stopped.

Yuan Shao took out a letter from his bosom and said with a smile: "Liu Zhoumu take a look at this letter first, you will know why I am so sure, and Liu Zhoumu, you can also rest assured." ”

Originally, he didn't want to expose too much, but in order to stabilize Liu Biao's heart, there are some things that he still has to explain.

You must know that he also doesn't trust Liu Biao very much, and he also has certain thoughts about Liu Biao, but in front of Qin Yin, who is the most powerful, he can only let go first.

looked at the letter handed by Yuan Shao.

Liu Biao's eyes flashed, and after a fleeting moment, he took the letter and read it.

Read.

His face also changed significantly, and he said with a smile: "It seems that all this is in your original plan!" ”

Although this is the case on the face, he is more vigilant against Yuan Shao in his heart, just as Yuan Shao does not trust him very much, he also does not fully trust Yuan Shao.

Now that a person can become a prince, how can he completely trust others, and he doesn't know how to die like that.

His previous worries were not pretended, but he was really worried.

But more, I also want to see what hole cards Yuan Shao has.

After all, he had arrangements in Jingzhou, how could he think that the Qin army would be able to take his territory with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but there were still most of the soldiers and horses left in the important passes of Jingzhou.

"Liu Zhoumu can rest assured this time, when we take down Qin Yin, we will be the greatest hero of the Han family!" Yuan Shao said.

"That's great!" Liu Biao nodded.

The two also looked at each other and laughed.

What kind of heroes of the Han family, they don't care about it now, they are just afraid that Qin Yin is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no place for them in the Central Plains.

If they were really for the Han family, maybe the world would not be like this today.

Of course, this is just thinking about it in the heart, not saying it.
