Chen Xi didn't think too carefully about Jia Xu's problem, maybe Jia Xu entered a period of excitement, maybe Jia Xu made another mistake and wanted to throw the pot out before being discovered by others, who knows?

After all, these are not important things, the important thing is that Chen Xi confirmed Li You's judgment, and Liu Ye also made the same judgment, that is, Yuan Shao intends to drag it down, and it can even be said that it has dragged through this crisis, Yuan Shao has a good chance of choosing the way of Zhao Guo back then, dragging grain and grass, and the more obvious advantage than Zhao Guo back then is that Yuan Shao's grain and grass can be dragged more affordably.

To be honest, this is the last thing Liu Bei wants to see, which is why there is mediation!

If it really drags on to that situation, the mediation of the Son of Heaven is actually the most beneficial way for Liu Bei, directly avoiding all the troubles, Jizhou, the head of Kyushu, has the biggest advantage of having money, food, horses, and people!

The battlefield can't beat you, but to hold you back, to be honest, if Yuan Shao goes all out to consolidate the defense line, all kinds of beacons, trenches, camps, and even the construction of the Great Wall of the Warring States, it will be very difficult for Liu Bei to defeat the other party, because Yuan Shao's comprehensive defense is actually a scoundrel.

However, anyone must admit that in the case of no solution, if the scoundrel can win, with Yuan Shao's current courage, he will definitely not even frown, and now Yuan Shao must be recognized in terms of courage, and the name of the world's model is not a mockery, but a fact!

It is precisely because of this that Liu Ye will leave Liu Xie with a strategy to show the glory of the Son of Heaven and the majesty of the Han Dynasty when he is out of the customs.

After all, Liu Bei was not prepared for this battle. Once the war dragged on to a disgusting situation, that is, Yuan Shao no longer pinned his hopes on attacking. But when he was on the defensive, Liu Xie stood up to mediate the war between the two sides. This is enough for Liu Bei to withdraw from this quagmire, regroup, and defeat Yuan Shao in one go after being ready.

The plan is like this, but Xun Yu's eyes are too good, after noticing this, he decisively plans to abolish this insurance lock prepared for Liu Bei, and the moment Liu Bei's big victory comes, Xun Yu plays this mediation card. Of course, at this time, this card is not good for Liu Bei at all.

To be precise, the mediation card at this time is not only for Liu Bei, but it has no benefit at all, but it has absolute benefits for Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, not asking for anything else, just to give Yuan Shao a chance to breathe, it is enough for Liu Bei to play this card, and it is also in Cao Cao's interests that Yuan Shao, who is injured but not dead, is in his best interest.

What's more, with Cao Cao's many years of understanding of Yuan Shao, the potential of this guy to burst out in the face of a powerful enemy is definitely enough to shock everyone, and that one was born to challenge.

So in the current situation. Even a blind man knows that he will not be able to get out of October, and the mediation order of the Son of Heaven will come.

In this way, Liu Bei has two choices, one is to continue this tepid war. When the time comes, the mediation order comes out and turns back, and a war of no meaning is fought in vain; The other is to pinch the time of the Son of Heaven to mediate, and let Yuan Shao become history before the Son of Heaven mediates!

In this way, the mediation of the Son of Heaven will have the greatest effect. If Yuan Shao died in battle, he would not leave a will. The combat effectiveness of the entire Hebei that broke out without the slightest respite was definitely no worse than Yuan Shao's life!

The Hebei Army, which had the idea of revenge, and the sons of Yuan Shao fought with their lives. Regardless of the loss of Jizhou, even if they all fall at the feet of Liu Bei in the end, it will be enough to severely damage Mount Tai, completely destroy Hebei, and even hit Cheng Dù, who is a family in Hebei.

In that case, even if he occupies Hebei, Liu Bei will not be peaceful, it is not a treasure land, it can only be said to be a piece of chicken ribs that are tasteless and discarded, not to mention that in such a war, both sides can only be cheaper Cao Cao and Sun Ce.

I'm afraid that after such a tragic battle, when I look back, Cao Cao and Sun Ce have already become behemoths.

If after killing Yuan Shao, the mediation order of the Son of Heaven arrives, and Liu Bei decisively stops, it will definitely be a good time to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, with the buffer of time, it is strange that the three sons of the Yuan family will not give birth to dirty!

At that time, while sitting and watching the Yuan family become more and more dead, he suppressed Sun Ce and Cao Cao, and he could still develop himself with his hands free.

When the Yuan family played themselves to death, as soon as Liu Bei stretched out his hand to receive it, he directly entered the heyday, without much effort, and the more important civil war of the three sons of the Yuan family will definitely consume all the Hebei people that Yuan Shao has accumulated, and there will basically be no resistance when he finally receives it.

According to Chen Xi's estimate, Jia Xu probably also has such an idea, so he will come up with such a ruthless plan, of course, this ruthlessness is not only ruthless to the other party, but also very ruthless to Liu Beijun!

Chen Xi, who is also stuck in the Puyang area now, is actually waiting for the mediation army, and he needs to let the mediators of the Son of Heaven, who will arrive soon, pass through here at the right time, otherwise, whether it is early or late, it will have a great impact on the entire Hebei plan.

This is also the reason why this army must leave a top wise man, just like the commander of the army must be equipped with an excellent strategist, not because the strategist is stronger than the general, but because the strategist is more sensitive in strategy and can choose a better time to shoot.

In this way, the strategists of Yuan and Liu are constantly stuck in time, constantly calculating the strength comparison of the two sides, and constantly hiding their own backs.

Under such circumstances, some sensitive generals have sensed the clouds of war that will break out at any time, and they are all preparing for themselves, and some destined battles are about to begin.

During this period of time, Yuan Shaojun and Liu Beijun also began to make the final adjustments to their army, at the same time as the last wave of grain and grass in Yecheng was sent, the news that the grain road was cut off was also transmitted at the same time, Wei Yan and Xu Shu of Qinghe made every effort to block the Qinghe, Yuan Shao's grain road was completely cut off, and the grain and grass left in the army could only last for four days.

Similarly, Liu Beijun's last wave of troops who sent grain and grass also brought the news that the grain and grass in the rear were burned, and there was not much grain and grass left in Liu Beijun's army.

The courtiers on both sides were pressing, waiting for the time to come, and when the two sides were waiting, a letter from Yuan Shaojun's army arrived at Chen Xi on the front line of Puyang, only to see that the letter had no beginning or end, and only three words were written - "The grain is exhausted"!

Chen Xi did not dare to slack off after receiving this letter, and immediately ordered someone to send it to Liu Bei's army quickly, and at the same time ordered Hua Xiong to prepare, and then sent a letter to Fa Zheng, who had already retreated as much as possible, the time may come!
