Yuan Shu was in a dilemma, and the opinions of civil and military were inconsistent. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info The military generals persuaded him to be emperor, but the civil officials did not let him be emperor. The public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable.

But although Yuan Shu wanted to be the emperor from the bottom of his heart, he had not been carried away yet, what Yan Xiang, Yang Hong and others said was indeed reasonable. Once he became the emperor, the princes from all walks of life really attacked him, wouldn't he Yuan Shu cheapen the surrounding princes. First, the emperor undermined the prestige of the Han family, and second, his territory was divided and other princes were strengthened.

Fortunately, there are different opinions between the civil and military, if it is like Yuan Shao, several strategists under his command have different opinions, and Yuan Shu really doesn't know what to do. And now the three relied on strategists have persuaded him not to be the emperor, compared to the generals, he is still willing to believe in the strategists who read a lot.

Yuan Shu temporarily put down his ambition to be the emperor, and looked at Yan Xiang and the others: "You don't agree with me being called the emperor, and how should you deal with the attack of the Son of Heaven?"

Yang Hong arched his hand and said: "It's still the sixteen characters I said earlier, cultivate benevolent government inside, form princes outside, rectify military discipline, and develop people's livelihood!"

The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit. The people are all profit-oriented, and the lord only needs to issue a few benevolent policies, and the people will be grateful to Dade, and the people's hearts will naturally be attached to it.

Once the Son of Heaven takes Nanyang, Yingchuan County in Yuzhou will be surrounded by Henan County and Nanyang, and it will not only be Liu Biao, but also Zhao Kuangyin. However, Zhao Kuangyin is an ambitious person, and he has defeated Yuan Shao, and the lord cannot befriend him. The lord can befriend Liu Biao and Tao Qian's princes and support each other. ”

Before Yang Hong finished speaking, Yuan Shu waved his hand and said: "I already understand the rectification of military discipline and the development of people's livelihood, but Tao Qian has always been weak, I am about to attack Xuzhou, but how can I show favor to him?"

As the lord said, Tao Qian is weak, not only the lord wants Xuzhou, but Zhao Kuangyin also wants it. The lord can befriend Tao Qian, in the future, Zhao Kuangyin will attack Xuzhou, he will definitely ask the lord for help, at that time, isn't it easy for the lord to want Xuzhou? Yang Hong explained with a smile.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Clever plan, wonderful plan, isn't this the benefit of a fisherman?" You go on! ”

Yang Hong was quite pleased to see Yuan Shu, so he continued with a smile: "Right now, the lord only needs to prepare some soldiers and horses to prepare to support Nanyang, and at the same time, Xiushu Liu Biao will explain the benefits and disadvantages to him and drag him into the water!" The lord is here, and he only needs to issue a few policies to benefit the people, regain the hearts of the people, and develop his strength with peace of mind. At the same time, he was befriending Tao Qian in Xuzhou, and when he repelled the soldiers and horses of the Son of Heaven, the lord could take Jiangdong first. At that time, the power of the lord is to occupy half of the world, at that time the people's hearts are attached, the lord's strength is at its peak, and at that time to be the emperor, it is the people's desire, it is the best time! ”

Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that he would defeat Liu Wei and occupy Jiangdong, and Xuzhou Tao Qian asked him to send troops to rescue Xuzhou, and take Xuzhou by the way. At that time, he occupied half of the Han Dynasty and ascended the throne as the emperor.

"Okay, according to what you said, immediately send someone to Jingzhou to ask Liu Biao for support, and befriend Tao Qian after exiting the soldiers and horses arranged on the border of Xuzhou. And I am here to govern the place, so that the people of Huainan will return to their hearts! Yuan Shu waved his long sleeves.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu thought beautifully, but the reality was very cruel, he himself was not the master after all, and after dealing with government affairs for less than three days, he handed over the matter to the people below and ran to enjoy the singing and dancing and being happy. Most of the people under him are yang and yin, how easy is it to get the people's hearts to follow? This required the ruler to do it himself, so the plan was only a few days, as if it had not been published.

And the hegemony that Yang Hong and others said to Yuan Shu must be based on the premise that Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses can repel Liu Wei's soldiers and horses in Nanyang. If he can't defeat Liu Wei, then he will not only lose the richest Nanyang, but the name of the thief will always hang on his head.

And on the Nanyang side, Chang Yuchun soldiers and horses were stationed in Champion County, and Hou Junji finally led his troops to intercept them. Hou Junji took the lead in entering the champion county town and led 20,000 soldiers, in addition to these 20,000 soldiers and horses, there were also 10,000 vanguard troops brought by Lan Yu, although most of them were wiped out by Chang Yuchun, there were still three or four thousand people. These centaurs are also stationed in the City of Champions.

In the rear, Wancheng and other counties had 20,000 soldiers and horses stationed for defense. Hou Junji was good at using soldiers, 20,000 soldiers and horses to defend Champion County, and curb the way of Chang Yuchun East into Wancheng. At the same time, there are 20,000 soldiers and horses guarding the rear, as long as it is not a surprise attack by tens of thousands of troops, there will be no danger.

Chang Yuchun's army set up camp outside the city of Champion County, and sent 10,000 people to collect the surrounding towns to appease the people. A few days after the confrontation between the armies, Hou Junji also got the news that Huang Zu had sent troops to Nanxiang. Hou Junji soon realized that this was a warplane, Nanxiang was besieged, the Han army could not send food, and the grain and grass of the Chang Yuchun army could not continue, so he could only retreat.

Therefore, Hou Junji sent scouts to closely investigate the movements of the Han army outside the city every day, and only waited for the Han army to run out of food and grass to retreat, and then led the army to kill.

In the Han military camp outside the city, Chang Yuchun and Gan Ning discussed, and Chang Yuchun asked, "How many days is our grain and grass enough?"

"It's really hateful to be able to hold on for five days, Huang Zu actually dared to send troops to cut off my grain route, if it weren't for this way, the people from all over the country would have eaten pot pulp to welcome us, we received some of their help, and we were afraid that our grain and grass would have been exhausted at this moment. The general should retreat, no one has come to deliver food for several days, and the soldiers are already panicking. Gan Ning said indignantly.

It is also a loss that Yuan Shu is not popular with the people, and even loses the hearts of some families, often when the spring leads the troops eastward, the autumn has no offense to win the love of the people, and the people will eat pot pulp to welcome them. Chang Yuchun did not receive the materials sent by ordinary people, but Chang Yuchun, who had a solid family, accepted them.

It was also thanks to the grain and grass materials sent by the people along the way, so that Chang Yuchun's army held on for a few more days, and Chang Yuchun also came up with a strategy to break the enemy.

"Don't worry, we have insisted on coming out for the past few days because of the more grain and grass sent by the people along the way, which is enough for Chang'an to react and send us food from Zheshui. We can still hold out for five days, and we can support the delivery of grain and grass. Hou Junji is cowering in the city and refuses to go out of the city to fight, so I just used this to lure him out of the city! Chang Yuchun said confidently.

"What's the general's plan?" Gan Ning said overjoyed.

"In the past two days, you have reduced the cooking smoke when you make meals in the room, and the two meals a day have been reduced, so that Yuan Jun thinks that we are short of food and grass, and on the third day, we are retreating! Even if Yuan Jun refuses to leave the city, the remaining two days of food and grass are enough for us to retreat! Chang Yuchun ordered.

Gan Ning listened to the order and went down to prepare.

On that day, the leaders of the Han army camp were busy, not only to cook enough food for the people to eat, but also to reduce the emission of cooking smoke to confuse Yuan Jun. So the soldiers in the gang blew away the cooking smoke and cooked it on a large fire to reduce the emission of cooking smoke.

Sure enough, with this method, the Han army cooked enough meals for the soldiers, but reduced a lot of cooking smoke emissions. Yuan Jun's scouts noticed this change and hurriedly went to report to Hou Junji. Hou Junji was overjoyed and asked the soldiers to probe again to observe the changes in the cooking smoke in the Han army.

Hou Junji said to the generals: "The Han army has less cooking smoke today than yesterday, it must be because they are short of grain and grass, so they reduce the use of grain and grass, so it seems that the Han army can not be full, and they can't last long." Wait and get ready, as long as the Han army retreats, we will go out of the city and kill! ”

In the next two days, the smoke rising from the Han army camp became less and less, and on the third day, the soldiers reported to Hou Junji: "The voices of the Han army are noisy, and there are faint voices of scolding and complaining."

"General, the Han army can't be full, the daily cooking smoke is getting less and less, they must be eating less and less, they are starving, and now they can't support it, so they scold and complain." One will hear the words and bow his hand.

Hou Junji nodded and said: "The Han army is starving now, I'm afraid it is also running out of food and grass, and the retreat is today." If the Han army retreats, you will lead 10,000 horses to pursue first, and I will lead 10,000 soldiers and horses behind! ”

"The Han army retreated, we should take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill the past with all our might, why are you leading 10,000 soldiers and horses behind?" Ichisho wondered.

"Lan Yu and other villains are still defeated in the hands of Chang Yuchun, which means that he is not a reckless man, you must know that the ancient Sun Bin has also used the stove reduction strategy, if the Han army lures my army out of the city to fight, it will be very bad!" Hou Junji explained.

"It's better to be cautious with the generals!" The generals admired.

That night, Chang Yuchun abandoned the camp, the soldiers and horses retreated to the west, and the Yuan army in the city got the news and went to pursue. The generals and colonels led 10,000 soldiers and horses in front, and Hou Junji led 10,000 soldiers and horses behind, with a distance of three or four miles.

"General, that Hou Jun is cautious, leading 10,000 soldiers and horses behind, a few miles away from the front army!" In the middle of the Han army, the Han army returned from the rear army and reported to Chang Yuchun.

After passing the order, the rear army slowed down slightly, allowing the Yuan army to catch up, and the middle army kept a distance from the rear army. If the Yuan army catches up, let them just flee for their lives and lure Hou Jun to gather troops and horses to chase after them! Chang Yuchun quickly gave the order.

"In this way, it is too risky to be expensive or not, once the rear army is really killed and defeated, it may cause a real rout!" Gan Ning hesitated.

"When the narrow road meets, the brave wins, and the Yuan army is a rabble who only know how to plunder the people, how can they compare with my Han warriors? What's more, soldiers are already risky, and they can't win without risk! Chang Yuchun said in a deep voice.

"No! I'm going to give the order! Gan Ning retreated, came to the rear army, and gave orders.

Gan Ning ordered, and soon the Chinese army and the rear army gradually distanced themselves, and the 10,000 Yuan troops in the rear saw this, and pursued them one by one like wolves and tigers. However, the Han army received the order but did not fight with them, but only fled.
