Longshushui, also known as Nanxi, originates from Mao'er tip in Yuexi County, the river is about 300 miles long, and the average river width is about 200 steps. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yuan Shu and his entourage, hungry, ran all the way, lost their armor, and threw heavy equipment along the way, just to get here a moment earlier and cross the river back to Shouchun.

However, when they finally came to the ferry, they were blocked by the vast river in front of them.

Longshudu is not big, but it can always dock seven or eight small boats on weekdays, which is used by travelers to cross the river. But today, Long Shudu is empty, not to mention the boat, not even a single figure.

Yuan Shu only felt a bone-chilling cold bush on the soles of his feet on the Tianling cover, and at this time, he knew with his toes that the Jiangdong Army had arrived in advance.

On the other side of the river, the figures are longing and the flags are waving.

"God will kill me!"

Yuan Shu looked up to the sky and sighed sadly, kneeling on the river embankment, his heart full of despair.

Qiao Rui smiled bitterly and muttered to himself: "Before, I was still wondering why the Jiangdong Army didn't chase after me. It turns out that they have already laid a net of heaven and earth......"

"Go to Longshu! By the way, we can also go to Longshu! ”

Yuan Shu gritted his teeth and stood up with a face full of reluctance, "There are only 10,000 thieves in the Sun family, I don't believe that he can block all the retreats of Lone!" ”

The hope of returning north twice in a row was disappointed, and in Qiao Rui's heart, he no longer had much hope for a breakthrough. However, to sit back and do nothing is really completely hopeless.

So, I had to try it hard.

Whether it was Lu Meng from Shu County or Ling Cao from Long Shushui, they just watched Yuan Shu escape again, and did not send troops to chase and kill. Not because he was afraid of Yuan Shu, but because he wanted to push him into the tomb that Zhou Yu had already prepared for him.

Outside Longshu County, Broken Soul Valley.

The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the feng shui is excellent, and there is also the cemetery of Liu Xin, the Marquis of Tangjie, in the mountains. Let Yuan Shu go to Jiuquan, and he can still have such a celebrity as a companion, and it is not in vain for his status as the fifth and third dukes.

Zhou Tai is here, he has already laid a real net, everything is ready, just waiting for Yuan Shu to walk in by himself.

However, just when Yuan Shu was only ten miles away, Zhou Tai unexpectedly received Zhou Yu's order to withdraw the siege and retreat back to the camp!

Seeing that Yuan Shu was about to throw himself into the net, and seeing that a splashing credit was about to be obtained, Zhou Tai's heart was full of unwillingness, incomprehension and resentment. However, after fighting for a long time, he still had no choice but to retreat.

In the Jiangdong Army, he was a newcomer and had very little qualifications, so he was not qualified to take on this important responsibility, but Zhou Yu chose him to believe in him, and it can be said that he has the grace of knowing him. Therefore, he can't disobey Zhou Yu's order, even if it may be just a mess.

Zhou Tai has never read a book, and he has been a water bandit, and only a handsome person like Zhou Yu who uses people in an eclectic way is willing to reuse him. And the more such people are, the more they often attach importance to the word "faithfulness".

This is exactly what you do, you vote for me with a peach, and I repay it with a li.

Yuan Shu, who had entered Longshu City without danger, didn't know that he was only a little bit away from death just now. But even so, his mental state was not much stronger than death.

Long Shu City was small, so he couldn't stay for a long time, but after Yuan Shu entered the city, he fell ill, his high fever did not go away, and he was talking nonsense in his mouth, so he couldn't start his journey at all. So although Qiao Rui was anxious, he could only wait patiently.

Qiao Rui, who was worried, unexpectedly waited for a great news.

The Jiangdong Army has withdrawn!

Qiao Rui's first reaction was that this was absolutely impossible, and then he suspected that this might be Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's trick to lure the enemy, but after thinking about it, the few remaining people around him now were not enough for the Jiangdong army to plug their teeth, and there was no need to do anything more.

Therefore, there is only one possibility left, the Jiangdong Army really withdrew from Huainan!

On the Jiangdong marshal ship where Zhang Fan crossed to the east, Zhou Yu stood in the wind, his clothes and belts fluttering, like an immortal who came out of the painting.

And Zhou Tai, who was standing behind him, was quite ruined by the style of painting, with black helmets, black armor and black face, which was in stark contrast to Zhou Yu in white clothes and white robes.

Zhou Yu slowly asked, "Youping, do you know why the lord suddenly retreated?" ”

Zhou Taimu nodded, "Well, I heard that it was because Zulang of Jing County and Shanyue were in turmoil, and the rebels had surrounded Danyang. ”

Zhou Yu said again: "Huainan is in the hands of our army sooner or later, so there is no need to rush for a while." However, Jiangdong is the foundation of our army, and there is no room for error. Although Zu Lang was born in Caokou, he is cunning and not easy to deal with, and he has the brave Shanyue as his wings, which should not be underestimated. ”

Zhou Tai nodded mechanically, but the doubts in his eyes still existed.

Zhou Yu smiled and asked: "I think, what makes you wonder should not be that the lord chose to return to Jiangdong at this time, but that as long as you are given a maximum of one hour, you can take down Yuan Shu's head, but at that time, I strictly ordered you to collect your troops and return to the camp, so you are very puzzled, right?" ”

"Uh-huh!"

Zhou Tai nodded violently and looked at Zhou Yu with anticipation.

He really didn't understand why Zhou Yu wanted to let Yuan Shu live.

Zhou Yu squinted his eyes and shook his head and sighed, "To be honest, my lord and I want to see Yuan Shu's head more than any of you, but, at least for now, Yuan Shu can't die yet!" ”

"Why?"

Zhou Tai stiffened his neck and asked: "Yuan Shu usurped the name and was self-reliant, without a king and without a father, and in Huainan he was even more tyrannical, arrogant and lascivious, causing public resentment to boil, if I want to say, it is not an exaggeration to die a hundred times!" ”

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Having said that, he still has a reason why he can't die, Youping, you might as well think about it, what kind of reason it is." ”

Zhou Tai puffed out his mouth and thought about it for a long time, his beauty was about to be screwed together, but he still had no gain, and finally shook his head and said angrily: "I can't think of it." ”

Zhou Yu turned around, glanced at Zhou Tai with a smile, and said patiently: "Then we might as well think like this, assuming that you don't withdraw and successfully kill Yuan Shu, what will happen next?" ”

Zhou Tai frowned and thought for a while: "After Yuan Shu's death, Huainan will definitely be in chaos, and the puppet regime he established will also collapse. Next, after the withdrawal of our troops......"

Zhou Tai's eyes suddenly glared at the boss, and he slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "I understand!" Because Zulang and Shanyue rebelled at the same time, the lord had to lead his army to retreat to Jiangdong. And in this way, it is equivalent to us making a wedding dress for Cao Cao, but we have worked hard in vain, but we have given up Huainan instead! ”

Zhou Yu nodded with satisfaction, "It's good to figure it out, we and Cao Cao are nominally allies, but sooner or later we will meet on the battlefield one day." Therefore, the important land in Huainan must be in our own hands! ”

In Lujiang, Yuan Shu drove his own expedition and returned with a fiasco.

In Jiujiang, Zhang Xun did not disappoint him, although there was a significant gap with Cao Jun in the overall quality of the soldiers, but Zhang Xun made full use of the geographical advantages and dragged the Cao army, who was anxious to fight a quick battle, into a protracted war.

Cong Long Kang to Tu Mountain, within a short distance of dozens of miles, Zhang Xun fortified step by step, camped everywhere, although he fought and retreated, but it made Cao Jun difficult, and every step forward, he had to pay a great price.

Sun Ce was not the only one who didn't want Cao Cao to get the important land in Huainan, and another person who didn't want Cao Cao to expand his power also made a brazen move when Sun Ce withdrew his troops.

"What? The Hebei Army Chen Bing Yellow River may cross the river and go south at any time? ”

Cao Cao rubbed his head, looking extremely painful, the war was not going well and the changes in the rear made him upset for a while, and his head was split.

Dong Zhao hesitated and persuaded: "After Sun Ce retreats to Jiangdong, Yuan Shu has no worries, and he can unscrupulously mobilize all the troops and horses to fight our army. If it is delayed for a long time, if the Hebei army really goes south, I am worried about ......"

"Why don't I know what you said?"

Cao Cao waved his hand with pain on his face and said, "But if I withdraw from the army, I am really unwilling!" ”

Dong Zhao smiled bitterly: "This is also a matter of no choice, our army has been fighting for many years, and it has long been tired, and now it can hold on because there is still hope in my heart." If the back road is cut off, I'm worried about ......"

"Don't say it."

Cao Cao didn't seem to dare to listen any longer, so he stopped Dong Zhao and said, "Let's go back to the camp tomorrow!" ”

The battle of Huainan ended in a daze. None of the three forces involved in the war seem to benefit from it, and war is often like this.

"You don't see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky, rushing to the sea and not returning! This rolling Yellow River, for thousands of years, has witnessed the rise and fall of many dynasties! ”

Han Jun stood on Liyang City, looking at the turbulent waves of the Yellow River coming from the east after the thawing, squinted his eyes and sighed: "It's like, when Yuan Shao was standing here, how could he have thought that his life would be turned upside down because of me, a gentleman in the eyes of most people?" ”

"Only a person with such a mind as the general would say such an imposing and astonishing statement!"

Behind Han Jun, there was a middle-aged man with pale temples, dressed as an ordinary person, but in his speech and demeanor, he showed the posture of a worldly master.

Han Jun shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Yuantu isn't praising me, right?" ”

This person was under house arrest by Han Jun in Huguan at the beginning, and he was a few years of Fengji.

Feng Ji shook his head and said sincerely: "I don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, Feng Ji has never said anything against his heart in this life." ”

"Really?"

Han Jun smiled and asked, "Then may I ask Mr. Yuantu, when he offered his plan to Yuan Benchu that day, did he say that Han Fu was incompetent, why not replace this sentence?" ”

The look of embarrassment on Feng Ji's face flashed, and he pursed his lips and nodded, "That's true." ”

Han Jun sneered, "Then may I ask sir, what is power?" What is incompetence? ”
