Chapter 186: Nanyang asks for help

Yuan Yao, who was originally inspecting the training of 3,000 soldiers and horses outside the city, did not hesitate at all after meeting the heralds sent by Yan Xiang, and immediately returned to Pingyu City with several of his personal guards.

After revealing his identity at the city gate and smoothly entering the Pingyu City, Yuan Yao did not run wildly, but turned over and dismounted, leading the horse on foot.

Pingyu City is now in order, if Yuan Yao gallops wildly, it will inevitably surprise some pedestrians, and today's matter is not immediately negotiable, so Yuan Yao did not run wildly. However, although he did not gallop on horseback, Yuan Yao's walking speed was not slow, and it was not long before he arrived in front of the gate of the Hou General's Mansion.

Yuan Yao is the son of the Later General Yuan Shu, and the doorman guards of the Later General's Mansion naturally know him. After handing over the war horse to a guard and taking it down to feed the ** grass, Yuan Yao walked straight to a house in the Hou General's Mansion.

When Yuan Yao stepped into that house, Pan Feng, Xiahou Lan, Yan Xiang, Xun Yue, Yuan Lian, Yuan Yin and others were already there, and after saluting these people respectively, Yuan Yao didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly: "Yan Changshi, what's the situation?" Something went wrong in Nanyang. ”

The herald sent by Yan Xiang just told Yuan Yao that something had happened in Nanyang, and asked Yuan Yao to rush back as soon as possible to discuss how to deal with the change in Nanyang.

After Yan Xiang saw Yuan Yao sit down, his eyes lit up, and he glanced at the few people present, now the high-level figures left by Yuan Shu in Yuzhou have all gathered, and in the case that Yuan Shu is not in Yuzhou, the decisions made by these few people can be said to be able to determine the fate of Yuzhou.

At the beginning, Yuan Shu led 50,000 troops to attack Chen Liu, leaving Xun Yue, Yan Xiang and Pan Feng to sit in Yuzhou, assisted by Xiahou Lan, Yuan Lian, Yuan Yin and others, everyone has already arrived at this moment, and there is one more Yuan Yao.

This time, Yuan Shu went north and Chen Liu did not bring Yuan Yao with him, but let Yuan Yao stay in Runan to practice literature and martial arts, and after Yuan Shu left, Yuan Yao also settled down a lot, and did not do things such as sneaking away that made people headaches, and either practiced in the Hou General's Mansion every day, or went to the military camp outside the city to train his three thousand soldiers, which made Yan Xiang and the others greatly relieved. They were really worried that if this Yuan Yao made some trouble again, it would not be a good thing.

After all the people came, Yan Xiang did not hide it, and said: "Everyone, I received the news from Yang Changshi of Nanyang, Liu Biao sent 30,000 troops, the soldiers were divided into two routes, and now they have captured Caiyang, Xiangxiang, Pingshi, Xinye and other counties, Liu Xun led 10,000 troops to fight with the Jingzhou army in Yuyang, and was defeated by the general of the Jingzhou army, Wen Ping, with heavy losses, and Liu Xun died in this battle, died under Wen Ping's knife. ”

Yan Xiang glanced at everyone's expressions, and then continued: "After Wenpin's great victory, he took advantage of the situation to pursue, and the remnants of Liu Xun were led by Li Yan to retreat to Yuyang County, and later Yang Hong asked Zhang Xun to lead 5,000 troops to support Yuyang, so as to resist the offensive of the Jingzhou army. However, according to Yang Hong's news, after Wenpin's victory, Liu Biao ordered his general Wang Wei to lead 20,000 troops into Nanyang, wanting to support Wenpin, so now there are only more than 10,000 available soldiers in Nanyang, Yang Hong has asked us for help, hoping that our side can send troops to support, otherwise Nanyang will lose. ”

After Yan Xiang finished speaking, Xun Yue stood up again and said: "Everyone, there is another news, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao led 10,000 troops from Guangling to attack Peiguo, and now Peiguo is in an emergency, and the letter for help was also sent to Pingyu today. ”

Pan Feng touched his beard at this time, and said angrily: "These thieves, taking advantage of our current main force to attack Chen Liu, are really hateful. ”

Yuan Jian said: "Captain Pan, now is not the time to talk about this, the most important thing now is how we should deal with the changes in Nanyang and Peiguo, the lord went north to attack Chen Liu and took away 50,000 troops, and we now have only 30,000 troops in our hands, counting the necessary troops that need to guard various places, the number of soldiers and horses that can be dispatched is only 20,000, and the number of troops used by Liu Biao before and after Nanyang has reached 50,000, and Zhang Chao's 10,000 people cannot be underestimated. ”

"No, you're three thousand less." When Yuan Jian finished speaking, Yuan Yao said loudly.

As soon as Yuan Yao spoke up, he immediately attracted everyone's attention, and in the face of the gaze of these people who were all good at cultivation, Yuan Yao's face was still extremely calm, and he said slowly: "The three thousand people under my command won't forget, right?" If we only compete in combat strength, the 3,000 men under my command are in the forefront even among our 100,000 troops, how can you forget such a powerful force? ”

Yuan Yao's words made Yan Xiang, Xun Yue, Yuan Lian and others all a little discolored, the reason why they let Yuan Yao participate in the discussion this time was to hope that Yuan Yao could give some different opinions, but listening to what Yuan Yao said now, he seemed to want to go into battle in person, which was not what Yan Xiang and the others wanted to see.

Yan Xiang said at this time: "Childe, the three thousand people under your command are indeed elite, but it is precisely because they are elites that they have more important tasks entrusted to them?" ”

"What task?" Yuan Yao's gaze fell on Yan Xiang, which was full of banter: "Stay in Pingyu? ”

The current Yuan Yao is no longer the original Yuan Yao, last year Yuan Yao got the real Nine Turns Yuan Gong, and embarked on the path of refining the body and cultivating the soul two initiates, and with the blessing of the Nine Turns Yuan Gong, a top exercise, Yuan Yao now has a momentum of not being angry and self-imposing, although it is still very light, but it really exists.

After cultivating the Nine Transformations Yuan Gong, Yuan Yao's cultivation has progressed rapidly, and now his cultivation in refining his body has reached the peak of the Iron Bone Realm, and his cultivation in the soul cultivation has also reached the peak of the Qi Induction Realm, which can be called a genius in the world.

Yan Xiang said: "Childe, I know what you want to do, but this is absolutely impossible. ”

Yuan Yao looked at Yan Xiang's expression, he already knew Yan Xiang's determination, and immediately decisively confessed, saying that Yan Xiang was tough and tough, but no one knew what he thought in his heart except Yuan Yao himself.

Yan Xiang looked at Yuan Yao, who had confessed, although a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart, but fortunately, Yuan Yao had already expressed his attitude, with his identity as a person from the Yuan family in Runan, he should not do anything to go back on his word.

However, the most important thing now is not Yuan Yao, but how to deal with the enemy forces in Nanyang and Peiguo, if the enemy in these two places can't deal with it, it will definitely cause Yuan Yao's courtyard to catch fire, and it may even lead to the failure of Yuan Shu's operation to attack Chen Liu.
