Three days are fleeting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The time enters September, the autumn wind rises, the weather is still warm, but after nightfall, there is a little more coolness.

Liu Xuan drew the prize for September, and this month's prize was very ordinary, a box of cold medicine. After Liu Xuan put away the medicine, he no longer cared about the lottery.

Liu Xuan's attention was focused on Yuan Shao's movements. A steady stream of news came back from the front line, and Liu Xuan flipped through the news handed over, Yuan Shao had withdrawn his troops, and the troops in various counties had also retreated one after another.

Yuan Shao retreated, while Liu Xuan advanced steadily.

On the one hand, send people to take over the counties; On the one hand, the announcement stabilized people's hearts.

The army under Liu Xuan's command advanced towards Pingyuan County, the Pingyuan State Governance Office, and approached steadily. At the same time, Zhang Jaw, who confronted Tai Shici, also retreated.

Tai Shici marched and also rushed towards Pingyuan County.

The army hurried away, and the news kept coming back.

Liu Xuan rode in a carriage, together with Jia Xu and Guo Jia.

Liu Xuan's expression was solemn, and he said with a straight face: "According to the news found on the front line, Yuan Shao retreated to Pingyuan County, and at the same time sent troops to Pingyuan County. From this point of view, Yuan Shao's intention is already obvious, he intends to support Liu Bei to stay in Pingyuan County to resist us. ”

After a pause, Liu Xuan said again: "Yuan Shao may not really want to rely on Liu Bei to block me, but Liu Bei can delay time, even consume our troops, and take the opportunity to weaken me, Yuan Shao has achieved his goal." ”

Jia Xu said: "All this is expected. However, Pingyuan County is not simple, on the one hand, it is the governing seat of Pingyuan County, and on the other hand, when Liu Bei was in charge of Pingyuan State, he strengthened the city of Pingyuan County and dredged the moat of Pingyuan County. Today's Pingyuan County is a strong city. It is not an easy task to conquer it. ”

Liu Xuan nodded and ordered: "Some more people who have been planted in Jinyi Guard are in Pingyuan County for later use." ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Your Highness, rest assured! ”

Liu Xuan said: "In addition, I want the most detailed situation in Pingyuan County. ”

"Yes!"

Jia Xu nodded in response.

Under the auspices of Jia Xu, Jinyiwei ran at high speed.

Liu Xuan continued to advance to Pingyuan County, and at this time, Yuan Shao led his troops to retreat to Pingyuan County.

Yuan Shao divided 6,000 troops to Liu Bei, and gave all the grain to Liu Bei. Yuan Shao gave quite a lot of food, at least enough for Liu Bei's soldiers to eat for half a year, and the weapons, armor, etc. were innumerable.

As long as Liu Bei can resist Liu Xuan, food and equipment are not a problem.

Yuan Shao looked at Liu Bei, his eyes were solemn, and said: "Xuande, this official promised Liu Xuan to withdraw the army, and next, it is impossible for this official to support you blatantly." In a way, you're alone. Are you really ready? ”

Liu Bei's expression was calm, and he replied, "Yuan Jizhou rest assured, he is ready in the future." As long as Liu Xuanjiu can't capture Pingyuan County, he can only withdraw his troops. At that time, the country of the plains could be restored in the future. ”

Liu Bei's plan is also simple, to hold Pingyuan County.

He didn't have any intention of killing Liu Xuan once to take revenge, after all, it was unrealistic.

With the troops given to him by Yuan Shao, and the fact that he retreated to Pingyuan County to recruit troops again, the force was also insufficient, at most he was holding Pingyuan County.

It is definitely unrealistic to kill Liu Xuan to take revenge.

The only chance is to hold Pingyuan County first. After Liu Xuan withdrew his troops, Liu Bei took the opportunity to seize the Plains State, develop his strength, and then with the support of Yuan Shao, gradually expand his power and take revenge.

Suddenly, Liu Bei said: "Yuan Jizhou, there is a request below." ”

Yuan Shao said: "What request?" ”

Liu Bei at this time was of great value to Yuan Shao.

As long as it is not too much of a request, Yuan Shao intends to agree.

Liu Bei Zhengse said: "I want to resist Liu Xuan in the future, the generals have three brothers, he is strong in martial arts, and he can go into battle to kill the enemy, but there is no shortage of generals." But there is a lack of people around me to give advice, so I implore Yuan Jizhou to secondment a strategist to help me resist Liu Xuan. ”

Up to now, Liu Bei knows that his shortcoming is the lack of strategists.

This time Yuan Shao wants to use him, which is his opportunity.

The so-called secondment, in Liu Bei's view, is just a reason. As long as Yuan Shao arranges someone to be by his side, Liu Bei believes that with the kung fu of the water mill, he will definitely make the other party gradually return to his heart, and finally become obedient to him.

This is Liu Bei's selfishness again.

Liu Bei looked at Yuan Shao, his eyes were clear, and he didn't have half a bit of treacherous thoughts.

After Yuan Shao heard this, he fell silent.

The secondee is by Liu Bei's side, and there are advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that people are by Liu Bei's side, which is equivalent to arranging a spy who can monitor Liu Bei's words and deeds. The disadvantage is that Pingyuan County is in crisis, and once Pingyuan County is captured by Liu Xuan, the people who arrange it are easy to fall into crisis.

Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, and he was confident enough that the people under his command would not betray.

Therefore, Yuan Shao considered it differently.

For a while, Yuan Shao hesitated.

However, Yuan Shao also felt that what Liu Bei said was reasonable, as long as someone gave advice to Liu Bei, it was possible to resist Liu Xuan when the soldiers in the city were sufficient.

Once Liu Xuan is dragged in the Plains Country, it will be a huge gain.

The lesser of two evils, Yuan Shao felt that someone should be sent.

Yuan Shao's gaze fell on Tian Feng. The first thing he thought of was Tian Feng, the person who always contradicted him. Yuan Shao stared at Tian Feng and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Hao, Liu Xuande needs the assistance of a strategist. Are you willing to stay and assist Liu Bei? ”

When Tian Feng heard this, he sighed lightly in his heart.

As a strategist, Tian Feng knew the results of Pingyuan County.

If Liu Xuan adopts the strategy of besieging the city, Pingyuan County will become an isolated city, and Yuan Shao cannot blatantly rescue, then Liu Xuan can trap Pingyuan County even if he does not attack the city.

The time of trapping Pingyuan County is only a matter of time.

Maybe three months, maybe half a year, or even a year, but after all, he is alone.

To a certain extent, in Tian Feng's eyes, staying in Pingyuan County is equivalent to being alone.

However, Yuan Shao had already given the order.

Tian Feng looked helpless, and arched his hand and said: "Obey orders!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded and said: "Yuan Hao, Xuande, Pingyuan County is very important, but there is no need to stick to it." Once it is really impossible to hold on, withdraw the troops immediately, and safety is paramount. ”

"Yes!"

Liu Bei bowed his hand, with a bright smile on his face.

With Tian Feng's assistance, Liu Bei stayed in Pingyuan County and had a greater certainty.

Yuan Shao said: "The arrangements have been arranged, and all the things that should be done have been done, and the official will lead the army to leave." Pingyuan County, over to you. ”

"Yes!"

Tian Feng and Liu Bei surrendered and watched Yuan Shao leave.

After Yuan Shao led the army to leave, Liu Bei said: "Mr. Yuan Hao, please come to the city." ”

"Please!"

Tian Feng nodded and followed Liu Bei into the city.

The army entered the plain county, and after Liu Bei and Tian Feng discussed, they began to quickly build fortifications.

In fact, Plains County has moats that form the first layer of protection. Therefore, it is not easy to storm the county seat. At Tian Feng's suggestion, Liu Bei continued to dig trenches, spread thistles, and put on horses within the range of bows and arrows outside the city.

Fortifications are being built everywhere.

On the castle tower, the defensive equipment such as the eye, the catapult, the boiling oil, and the stones were all ready to be put in place.

Everything is ready, just waiting for Liu Xuan's arrival.
