18. Pre-war mobilization

The camp in Jizhou, at this time, the lights were bright, and the general Yuan Shao was convening the generals to discuss the major affairs of the military aircraft. Yuan Shao began the crusade declaration: "Now that the traitors of the imperial court are in charge, Cao Cao is a Han minister, but he is actually a Han thief, the Qing monarch is on the side, the Yasukuni is difficult, and the general's duty is located, so I decided to raise 500,000 troops to crusade against Cao Cao, support the Jiangshan Sheji, and save the people of Liming." I personally led the 300,000 troops of Jizhou in the Chinese army, with Yan Liangwen Chou as the vanguard, and the frustration, discipline and trial as the army, to attack Xuchang and save Your Majesty. On the eastern front, Yuan Tan was the main commander, leading 100,000 troops from Qingzhou to attack Xuzhou. On the western front, Yuan Xi was the main commander, commanding Youzhou and 100,000 soldiers and horses to attack the eastern capital Luoyang. ”

The generals received the order, but only Yuan Xi stepped forward and said: "General Qiyu, I have something to ask for, can you ask Uncle Liu Huang to help me?" Liu Bei saw that Yuan Shao and Yuan Xi were looking at him, and he was suddenly shocked, he could only follow the Chinese army as planned, he could take the opportunity to break away from Yuan Shao and make a comeback, if he went to the Western Front, not to mention what accidents would happen, this Yuan Xi was not Yuan Shao so easy to fool, and he didn't know how to escape when the time came, so he refused after thinking for a while: "I know Cao Cao best, Cao Cao will naturally go to fight against the general, only by going to the Chinese army can he best help the general." The second son forgive me, please forgive me for not agreeing. ”

Yuan Xi had long known that Liu Bei would not be able to go with him obediently, and said aggrievedly: "I have no generals under me, and I need General Zhao Yun's help, what should I do if Uncle Huang doesn't go with me?" Liu Bei can't say that he is suffering, you don't have a general, you deliberately don't bring it, just waiting to explain, at this time, Feng Ji admonished in advance: "Lord, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the two generals bravely crown the three armies, and have the help of the emperor's uncle, it is enough to deal with Cao Cao's forward." If there is no general under the second son, if the battle is unfavorable, it will affect the morale, so it is better to let the emperor's uncle order General Zhao Yun to go to the second prince's command, and wait for the victory over Cao Cao to be rewarded for meritorious deeds. ”

Yuan Xi didn't expect Feng Ji to help him speak at this time, so he glanced at him gratefully, and praised: "Mr. Yuantu's idea is good, anyway, everyone is contributing to the general, so why not divide you and me, and hope for my father's favor." Liu Bei knew that if he argued at this time, he might not be able to get out, so he said righteously: "They are all working for the general, how can they divide each other, since the second son is in need, Zilong can naturally follow the second son." When Zhao Yun knew that Liu Bei had sent him to Yuan Xi, the frustration on his face could be imagined, he had worked hard to follow, but he was unwilling to go all the way with him in order to be able to get out, but Zhao Yun was a loyal and righteous person, and he also received his orders silently.

Liu Bei's ruthlessness disrupted Yuan Xi's plan, if Liu Bei stayed by Yuan Shao's side, it was really hard to say whether history would repeat itself. Although Feng Ji and the trial will watch Liu Bei, Liu Bei's scheming is unfathomable, and Yuan Xi is really not at ease, so he reminded: "Father, I don't know which general guards our grain and grass?" Yuan Shao said confidently: "It's still Xianyi who is thoughtful, and my henchmen are naturally responsible for the major affairs of grain and grass, and Chun Yuqiong has followed me for many years, which is absolutely reliable!" I know that it is this drunkard, he naturally will not betray Yuan Shao, but his ability is limited and he can't hold it, but it seems that there is no better general, so he can only say euphemistically: "Father, Cao Cao is good at cutting off people's food and grass, Chun Yu is naturally loyal to the general, but many people are good to take care of, Sun Li under the child, has a reliable ability to do things, and can be used as General Chunyu's deputy." ”

Fu Zhu also admired Yuan Xi's speaking level, and arranged for the deputy to relieve Chun Yuqiong's pressure, not only not to offend Chun Yuqiong, but also to ensure the safety of grain and grass, and also stepped forward to admonish: "My lord, what the second son said is extremely true. Yuan Shao saw that everyone agreed, so he ordered someone to invite Sun Li into the camp, and when Yuan Shao saw that Sun Li was calm and decisive, he affirmed Yuan Xi's proposal. With Sun Li escorting grain and grass, Yuan Xi is also a lot more relieved, the only thing he is worried about is Yan Liangwen and ugliness, will he be killed by Guan Yu?

After the task is assigned, Yuan Xi will also prepare to set off for Hedong and attack Hanoi. Before leaving, Yuan Xi found Yan Liang and Wen Chou and asked: "Two generals, Xian Yi came here today to ask each other, if the two pioneers met Liu Bei's brother Guan Yu on the battlefield, how would they be treated?" Although Yan Liang wondered why Yuan Xi asked this, isn't Guan Yu's whereabouts unknown, but thinking that the second prince was just guessing, he replied respectfully: "If I meet Guan Yu, I will ask about the identity of the other party and tell him that Liu Bei is here." If he doesn't believe me, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Yuan Xi shook his head, this Yan Liang is really worrying, the fighters on the battlefield are changing rapidly, how can there be time to ask, isn't this looking for death, no wonder he will die under Guan Yu's knife. Yan Liangwen didn't know why Yuan Xi shook his head, only to see Yuan Xi say: "If you do this, I guess you will already have your head on the ground!" Whether he is Guan Yu or not, you shouldn't ask, Guan Yu has the courage to be unstoppable, and the general must take advantage of it if he is distracted, only if he has fought with him and knows how powerful General Yan is, he can be fine if he asks again! ”

Yan Liangwen is simple-minded, and it is the second son who advised him, and he felt justified after thinking about it for a while. That's right, whether he is Guan Yu or not, he shouldn't ask, kill it, kill it, anyway, Liu Bei is not really his own person, although Yan Liangwen Chou doubted that this situation would occur, but the two of them still thanked: "Thank you for reminding the second son, if this is the case, my brother will be rewarded!" "It's really an unexpected surprise, if the names of the two people who are really saved, there are two more fierce generals, although they are only simple-minded fierce generals.
