Hebei.

Yuan Shao was stunned: "Liu Shimin actually borrowed 200,000 grains from me through Zhen Luo on the grounds of crusading against Yuan Shuguo's thieves, do you think I should borrow or not?" ”

Who in the world doesn't know that Yuan Shu is from the same Yuan family as him, and he is the same father and brother, Liu Yu actually opened his mouth to borrow grain from him to crusade against Yuan Shu?

It's not that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have any brotherly feelings, but although Jizhou is rich, he has also used troops for many years, and the surplus food is not rich. Liu Yu's request made Yuan Shao not know whether to joke or really borrow.

Grain and grass, the princes borrow each other, almost all of them are borrowed but not returned, even if they have to be repaid, I don't know how many years it will be delayed.

Tian Feng said: "Lord, I don't think you should borrow, even if you want to borrow, give a maximum of 100,000 Hu, block Liu Shimin's mouth, and don't let the princes of the world think that the Lord Duke and Yuan Shu are complicit, 200,000 Hu is too much." ”

Fu Zhu also said: "Lord, I think it is enough to give 50,000 Hu." ”

Yuan Shao smiled bitterly and said, "Then you have to give some?" ”

The judge said: "Lord, Yuan Shu claims to be the emperor in vain, and has become a national thief recognized by the world, and now is an important juncture for the lord to devote all his efforts to destroy Gongsun Zhan, and it cannot have anything to do with Yuan Shu, who has become a national thief." Liu Shimin borrowed grain in the name of crusading against Yuan Shu's thieves, and asked the lord's righteous daughter Zhen Luo to write a letter on his behalf, if the lord didn't allow half of it, wouldn't he be said to be a national thief who disregarded the country and was in the same stream as Yuan Shu? ”

At this time, Xu You also came out and said: "Lord, Xu You thinks that not only should be given, but also should be given, Jizhou is rich, just 200,000 grains and grass, at least let the world know that the lord is still loyal to the Han family at the moment, and he is not ashamed of Yuan Shu and other rebels. ”

Tian Feng angrily reprimanded: "Xu You, don't mislead the lord, even if you want to give, at most 100,000 Hu is enough, why do you need to give 200,000 Hu." ”

In fact, Xu You didn't know that even if he wanted to give, it would be enough to give 100,000 Hu, but if so, wouldn't it mean that Tian Feng's strategy was more useful than his Xu You's strategy here in Yuan Shao? Doesn't it mean that Yuan Shao is more willing to follow Tian Feng's advice? So why can he still think of himself as the chief strategist under Yuan Shao?

If it is said that the strategists around Yuan Shao are divided into two factions, then Tian Feng, Judge, and Fu Zhu are one faction. Xu You, Feng Ji, and Guo Tu are one faction, and the faction headed by Xu You is dedicated to suppressing Tian Feng's faction.

Therefore, this is no longer a matter of borrowing how many suitable things to borrow, but which of the two factions is more trusted in front of Yuan Shao.

Guo Tu snorted coldly: "Tian Feng, you are the one who misled the lord. Since you want to give, why not be generous, and also show the courage of the lord. ”

The two factions quarreled with each other, Tian Feng and the others really thought about Yuan Shao, but most of the time they spoke too directly and not good, while Xu You's faction was more famous and rich, and he hoped that Yuan Shao would only trust them, and he liked to say it well many times, which made Yuan Shao feel comfortable, so in general, in the end, Xu You's faction always won more.

This time, it was still Xu Yu's faction that won, and Yuan Shao agreed to lend Liu Yu 200,000 grains.

Guanzhong.

Liu Yu was stunned, he said that he wanted to borrow 200,000 Hu, purely to give Yuan Shao room to cut, how could he not have thought that Yuan Shao would not cut at all, and directly gave him 200,000 Hu, should he say that Yuan Shao is rich or a loser?

Either way, it's a good thing that the food is available.

At the same time, news came from Xu Du that Cao Cao agreed to take full responsibility for the grain and grass of Liu Yu's expedition.

To tell the truth, Cao Cao was actually under a lot of pressure, Yanzhou only suffered a locust plague two years ago, the grain was limited, and he himself was not rich, but he was also responsible for the grain and grass of Liu Yu's army, but he was helpless, he regarded himself as the imperial court, and ordered Liu Yu to send troops to send national thieves, and he had to be fully responsible for the grain and grass. In that year, the princes of the Nineteenth Route attacked Dong, and the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were responsible for most of the grain and grass consumption of the coalition army in order to compete for the position of the alliance leader and grain and grass officer.

If you are in charge of grain and grass, you will be in charge of grain and grass, anyway, you are here to help him fight, and all the population and territory are his, and Liu Yu can't take them back to Guanzhong.

After getting 200,000 pieces of grain and grass from Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao promised to give full authority to send all the grain and grass for his army, Liu Yu decided to send troops.

Immediately, Liu Yu took Liu Ye, Lu Qian, and Guan Yu to sit in Chang'an, and he himself personally led 40,000 iron cavalry, with Guo Jia as the military advisor, and Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Pang De as the generals who would go out of the customs meeting and Cao Cao to conquer Yuan Shu.

The reason why all the cavalry was dispatched was because Liu Yu did not want to participate in the siege.

The siege has always been the largest casualty, Huainan is far away from Guanzhong, and he is destined to defeat Yuan Shu, and he will not get much benefit, so he will have an excuse to only be responsible for field battles, not responsible for siege, this is the biggest reason.

Yanzhou County, which is only 200 miles away from the boundary of Yuan Shu, was the meeting place agreed by Cao Cao and Liu Yu.

Cao Cao's 170,000 troops had been stationed here two days earlier.

"Yuan Shao was anxious to destroy Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yang to unify Hebei, Lu Bu and Liu Zhang were really indifferent, Liu Biao, Sun Ce, and Zhang Xiu just wanted to pick up the cheap when they sent troops, and they would not unite with me, but they didn't expect that in addition to Qin Hou Liu Yu, Liu Bei's guy also brought thousands of his soldiers and horses to help." Cao Cao said.

Since Liu Bei was driven out of Xuzhou by Lu Bu to join Cao Cao, he was arranged by Cao Cao in a county town adjacent to Xuzhou in Yuzhou.

Cao Cao never expected that Liu Bei would come to help with all his remaining men, Zhang Xiu could barely be counted as half a prince, and Liu Bei was not even half a prince now.

Cheng Yu said: "Lord, Liu Bei has always had heroic ambitions, and I am afraid it will be difficult to live under the people for a long time, I think he is more heroic than Lu Bu, Liu Biao and others, if he has the opportunity, he will rise to become a column of princes, and even the threat is greater than before." ”

Cao Cao nodded, with his eyes, of course, he could also see that Liu Bei had a heroic temperament, the so-called great benevolence and great virtue that seemed to be, others might believe it, and they might say that Cao Cao, who would rather teach me to bear the world, and Hugh asked the world to bear me, would never believe it, he had always been guarding against Liu Bei.

"What will Liu Bei do in the future, in the end, there is still Liu Yu Zhuyu in front, Liu Bei claims to be the eighteenth great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu calls himself the seventeenth generation, the two guys are a bit funny, Liu Bei's eighteenth generation still has some clues to check, but Liu Yu can't find anything when he checks around, but Emperor Xianling did not question Liu Yu's 'identity', and now Emperor Xian has also called Liu Yu the word 'imperial uncle', true or not, there is no meaning. If Yuan Shu is destroyed first, it will be up to him who is more strategic in the future. Cao Cao smiled, too lazy to think too much.

"Report ......"

"The army of the Marquis of Qin has arrived ten miles away." A sergeant suddenly came to report.

Cao Cao got up and took Cheng Yu, Xiahoudun and others out of the tent together: "Follow me to meet Liu Shimin outside the village." ”

Not only Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei also came to the outside of the village.

According to Liu Bei's mood, he didn't want to recognize Liu Yu as the so-called 'uncle', the more he thought about it over the years, the more he felt that something was wrong, Liu Yu looked obviously younger than him, but he was known as the seventeenth generation of Emperor Jing, just a generation older than him, and he became his 'uncle'.

Everyone is known as the clan of the Han family, if there is no Liu Yu Zhuyu in front, how can he Liu Bei be mixed up for so many years, and his reputation has been suppressed by Liu Yu, he has always felt that if there is no Liu Yu, his current achievements must not be inferior to Liu Yu's current achievements.

If there is anyone in this world who hates Liu Yu the most, it is undoubtedly Liu Bei.

However, Liu Bei's city government is too deep, no matter how much he hates, he has a gentle, righteous and benevolent appearance on his face, and he is also respectful to Liu Yu, and there is no ambiguity.

"Boom ......"

The Central Plains south of the Yellow River had not seen such a large-scale cavalry for many years.

For the first pole of the "Qin" word flag and a pole of the "Liu" word flag fluttering in the wind, although the iron horse has not arrived, but the momentum of the fierce has come to the face, this is a well-trained elite horse.

"Liu Shimin is getting stronger and stronger." Cao Cao's eyes flashed.

"Liu Yu this ......" Liu Bei secretly gritted his teeth, holding a breath of evil in his heart and it was difficult to vent, his eyes were red and jealous, why did Liu Yu develop so strong over the years, and he.
