Before going to bed at night, Liu Mang saw the information in the bronze mirror.

It turned out to be another message to complete the task.

Congratulations on completing the mission!

Mission Type: Charisma Mission

Mission number: Charm 1001

Task trigger: Yan Qing

Trigger Reward: Happy Marriage

Description: Thanksgiving

Reward: Charisma +1

Yo!

Cheng Yanjin started the task of optimistic character charm, and Yan Qing started this task of thanksgiving!

Oh......

Liu Mang remembered that when he left his hometown for refuge, in order to thank Master Zhen for his kindness, he visited the door and promised to repay the kindness, and the system started the task numbered Mei 1001.

Later, entrusted by Master Zhen's deathbed, Liu Mang sent Wu to use Yanqing to escort the Zhen family to Changshan Country to join their relatives, and the system gave a task to prompt.

Later, a cow tendon was seized from Zuo Zhangba, and Yan Qing used it to make a Sichuan crossbow, and named the Sichuan crossbow "Thanksgiving".

All this seems to be a coincidence in the dark. But it is precisely because of the constant gratitude that all this is triggered, and the reward of gratitude is reaped.

Liu Mang reached into his arms and took out a lotus bag.

This is a gift from Miss Zhen Jing'er to Yanqing. A small lotus bag is a pure love.

It's just that Jing'er is too young and pure, and even if Liu Mang is a real hooligan, he can't use his crooked brain. However, Liu Mang's heart was still full of sweetness......

In the system, there is one more piece of information.

The quest is completed, Charm +1, and the sum of the five measurements is increased to 304

After playing for a while, Liu Mang put the lotus bag on a few cases and leaned over to study the map.

At present, all kinds of signs show that the possibility of Yuan Shao in Jizhou using a knife is getting smaller and smaller. The threat from Jizhou is decreasing, and Liu Mang is gradually focusing on how to develop and consolidate Taiyuan......

To celebrate the reunion of the Hua family, Liu Mang drank wine, and had to stay up late at night to work, so he specially boiled a nourishing soup and brought it to Liu Mang in person.

"Young master, take a break and drink some soup." The attacker filled the soup and gave it to Liu Mang with both hands.

"Xi'er, your body is inconvenient, don't do these things yourself in the future."

"Xi'er will be relieved to do these things in person." The attacker lowered his eyebrows and saw the pouches on several cases.

Liu Mang once told the attacker about Miss Zhen Jing'er.

The attacker was saved by Liu Mang's life. As a slave and maid, she was favored by her master. Although she loves the young master very much, she also knows that it is impossible for her to become Liu Mang's wife, as long as she can be by the side of her beloved, she is very satisfied.

"The young master has brought Daddy Hua here, when, bring Miss Jing'er over as well."

Liu Mang smiled and gently touched the attacker's lower abdomen, which began to bulge. "It's not the same. Daddy Hua is alone, and it's easy to pick up. The Zhen family has a large family business and a large population, so it is not easy to move. ”

……

The next morning, Gao Zhong escorted Song Yingxing and others back to Jinyang.

Before Liu Mang could say a few words to them, he received an urgent report from the Jingcheng front: Jingcheng Jizhou Army, there is an abnormal movement!

Liu Mang instructed Haosheng to settle down Song Yingxing and the others, and immediately led Gao Pet Yanqing to Jingcheng.

Yangqu, under the coordination of Yu Wenkai, the reconstruction of Yangqu is progressing very quickly.

During a short stay in Yangqu, Xu Da suggested that Liu Mang inspect the reconstruction site.

Yu Wenkai's planning and construction is no simpler than planning a campaign. The place where various materials are stacked seems to be very messy, and it seems to imply a mystery. Yu Wenkai even has strict restrictions on the number of piles of wood and stone stacked in each pile.

Liu Mang took a turn around the construction site, in addition to feeling that the construction site was more messy, he also had a faint feeling, but he didn't think very clearly.

Turned his head and asked Xu Da.

Xu Da said with a smile: "It is extremely rare for the young master to have an understanding. The young master once said, let his subordinates talk about the perception of studying "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and when the matter is finished, his subordinates will combine with Mr. Yuwen to rebuild Yangqu and say a little for my lord. ”

"Good!"

Liu Mang took Liu Bowen and Xu Da and rushed to Yu County.

Su Dingfang had already rushed to Yuxian County first, and together with Li Xiucheng and others, he greeted the young master Liu Mang, and immediately held a meeting to study the enemy's situation.

According to the report of the spy sent by Liu Bowen to Jizhou, there are a large number of Qingzhou yellow turban activities in the Bohai Sea area of Jizhou.

And Sun Zhan, the right Beiping Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Bei, the plain, have already mobilized troops and horses, and marched into the Bohai Sea in Jizhou under the banner of clearing the remnants of the Yellow Turbans.

After listening to this, Liu Mang said with a smile: "And hope to confront, Gongsun Zhan and Liu Bei, take the opportunity to rub oil, cunning enough, and despicable enough." However, they stabbed us from the east, and they helped us. ”

"Yes, yes." Su Dingfang said, "Compared with stationing in Bingzhou, Yuan Benchu must care more about Bohai. After all, it was the place where it started, and with a population of one million in Bohai, Yuan Benchu would never give up easily. According to common sense, Yuan Benchu should withdraw his troops from Jingcheng and wave his army to the Bohai Sea. However, on the Jingcheng side, the performance of the Jizhou army was extremely abnormal. ”

"What's wrong?"

Su Dingfang took out several reports, which said that the Jizhou army in Jingcheng not only had no intention of retreating, but also showed signs of increasing food and troops.

Liu Mang's brows furrowed. "What? Could it be that Yuan Benchu really ignored Bohai and prepared for a decisive battle? ”

Su Dingfang shook his head: "Yuan Benchu's true intentions are unknown. Especially in Jizhou, in terms of Jingcheng, soldiers and horses are frequently mobilized, but they do not store grain, which is very strange. ”

"What does Mr. Berwyn think?"

Liu Bowen twisted his beard and said calmly: "According to a certain opinion, Jizhou's move has no three purposes. First, Yuan Benchu tried in vain to make a quick decision and conquer the three counties of Jingcheng. ”

"He wants to be beautiful!" Cheng Yanjin jumped up and shouted.

"Second, Yuan Benchu showed strength in Jingcheng, shocked us, and made me dare not act rashly, so as to make every effort to solve the problem of eastern Hebei."

Li Xiucheng had questions: "Is he afraid that we will be attacked by Gongsun Chan and Liu Bei from the east and west?" However, he should know that my lord and Gongsun Boqi are not on good terms. ”

"In troubled times, all parties put their own interests first. Just as when we took Taiyuan, Zhang Yang of Jizhou Yuan Shao and Xihe Gaoshun were not on good terms, but for their own interests, they raised troops at the same time and wanted to meddle in Taiyuan. It doesn't matter whether it's good or not, it's about interests. ”

Liu Mang nodded. "And what's the third reason?"

Liu Bowen said with a smile: "Third, Yuan Benchu is arrogant. The strategists are fierce generals, holding heavy troops, and claiming to be the leader of the princes of the world. In the previous battle of Jingcheng, although the Jizhou army was not defeated, it was also extremely embarrassed. ”

Liu Mang understood and laughed. "What Mr. Berwyn means is that even if Yuan Shao can't capture the three counties of Jingcheng, he needs to fight another battle and withdraw his troops from Jingcheng with the attitude of a victor. Is that so? ”

Liu Bowen nodded.

Yuan Shao had never suffered such a setback since he started the army, and he couldn't accept it in his heart.

For soldiers, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. However, Yuan Shao used troops against the state, and the Jizhou family behind him did not support it. If the battle of Jingcheng ends in defeat, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction with the Jizhou family, and Yuan Shao's face will not be able to hang up, and it will also affect his control of Jizhou.

Cheng bit the gold and jumped up. "Then let him lose it again! Until he loses his habit and has no face, he will be honest! ”

Although Li Xiucheng and the others did not say it directly like Cheng Yanjin, the expressions on their faces were all ordinary, and they were ready to fight a decisive battle with Jizhou.

In Liu Mang's heart, he really wanted to beat Yuan Shao hard......
