Yecheng, the capital of Jizhou, in a magnificent palace, Yuan Shao lazily leaned behind the handsome case, his hair was combed neatly, pinned with a golden hairpin, the beautiful beard was obviously carefully groomed, every look and every movement, it seemed to be full of the pride of the countryman, suddenly, Yuan Shao looked back at the military generals who were kneeling on both sides, and said loudly: "Come on, let's talk about it, to fight or not to fight?" ”

The hall was quiet for a long time, and Tian Feng, who was in a column of strategists, took the lead in the ranks: "The lord, in the next suggestion to fight, while Cao Cao was entangled in Xuzhou by Tao Qian and Liu Bei, the lord can lead a large army to attack Xuchang, and then serve the son of heaven to order the princes, the lord is famous, and the protégés are all over the four seas, as long as the lord gives an order, the civil ministers and military generals in the four seas are all called, at that time, the lord will become the first prince in the world, and the talent will come to the lord's account like a carp crossing the river!" ”

As soon as Tian Feng's words fell, it immediately caused a sensation in the main hall, and the generals were all gearing up, full of confidence, just waiting for Yuan Shao's order, the strategists whispered to each other, and expressed their opinions to each other, some agreed and some opposed.

Yuan Shao stroked his beautiful long hair, his eyes were ethereal, unpredictable, and he didn't know whether he agreed or opposed.

"Okay, you Tian Feng, you want to trap the lord in a disloyal and unrighteous place!" The strategist column walked out again, he first pointed at Tian Feng and scolded him, and then saluted Yuan Shaozuo and said: "Lord, don't send troops, this Tian Feng's plan is simply harming the lord!" ”

"Oh?" Yuan Shao sighed curiously and asked, "Xu You, tell me about it." Tian Feng: How did he hurt me? ”

Xu You first glanced at Tian Feng triumphantly, and then said to Yuan Shao respectfully: "As Tian Feng said, the lord is famous. Protégés and former officials are all over the world, even if the lord wants to serve the Son of Heaven to order the princes, he must defeat Cao Cao on the battlefield with dignity, how can he do something to prevent fire in someone else's backyard, so he will lose the identity of the lord! ”

Xu You's mouth seemed to be smeared with nectar, and every sentence was said in Yuan Shao's heart, which immediately made Yuan Shao feel happy. While stroking his long hair, he nodded incessantly, expressing his agreement with Xu You's opinion.

Xu Yu waved his coat at Tian Feng. Sycophant again: "That Cao Cao is nominally serving the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but in fact he is coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, although he is a Han Chen, he is actually a Han thief." But he didn't make too many mistakes. If the lord is out of the school at this time, he is a teacher who is unknown, and he will be said to be a traitor by others. ”

Xu You said that when he said the important point, he turned to look at Tian Feng with his hand and sneered: "As early as after Cao Cao moved the Son of Heaven to Xuchang, he crowned the lord of my family as the general, and held the precept of the governor Qing and Ji Sanzhou, and soon a Youzhou will be added." And he, Cao Manipulating the Son of Heaven in his hands, is just a commonplace. At that time, the lord was edicted, and if you let the lord attack Xuchang now, it would be unjust. ”

Xu You glanced at Tian Feng proudly, and then bowed to Yuan Shao: "Lord, to sum up, Tian Feng let the lord send troops, wouldn't it make the lord fall into a place of disloyalty and injustice?" ”

Tian Feng threw off his clothes, pointed at Xu You and scolded: "Xu You, you traitor, you get out of the way!" ”

After Tian Feng finished scolding, he pushed Xu You away, and admonished Yuan Shao on the throne: "Lord, Hugh must listen to what Xu You said about traitors, and the matter of sending troops is urgent, otherwise Cao Cao will capture Xuzhou, recuperate for a few years, and when he is strong and strong, it will be too late to regret it!" ”

"Tian Feng!" Xu You shouted: "You are the traitor, don't want to provoke my relationship with the lord here!" ”

Yuan Shao's thick eyebrows furrowed, he was upset by the two of them, and when he saw the two who were still chattering, he slapped the table suddenly: "Okay, if you want to quarrel, don't bother me here!" ”

Seeing Yuan Shao's anger, Tian Feng and Xu You glared at each other, and then slowly retreated to the array.

A breeze blew through his beard, his eyes narrowed into a line, a pair of treacherous eyes kept turning in his sockets, and his face still had the same smile on his face.

"Lord, why don't we compromise?"

The judge straightened out his clothes, stepped out of the line, and bowed to Yuan Shao on the main seat.

"How to compromise?"

There was a warm smile on the face of the judge: "Neither fighting, but also not letting Cao Cao feel better, the lord can order General Chun Yuqiong and General Yan Liang to send troops to Baima to threaten Cao Cao's rear, so that he can't care about each other in the first place." ”

Yuan Shao's eyes flashed, he stroked his beard and fell into contemplation, and after a moment, he raised his head, pointed at the trial and said, "Just do as you say!" ”

Tian Feng was in a hurry and immediately wanted to admonish, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Yuan Shao's sleeves, and suddenly his throat was as uncomfortable as a ball of goose feathers, and he looked at Yuan Shao's departing back unwillingly.

"Brother Yuan Hao, how is it?"

Xu You walked up to Tian Feng, his face was full of sarcasm, he had the upper hand in this battle, and his mood became extremely happy.

"Phew, traitor, traitor who only flatters!" Tian Feng glared at Xu You, and suddenly spat out Xu You's face.

Where is Xu Yu willing to do it, he immediately scuffled with Tian Feng in the main hall, and was so shocked that the surrounding ministers and generals hurriedly went to stop him.

The judge looked at the scratches on the faces of the two of them, and smiled sarcastically: "It's a shame that you two are still celebrities, and you actually fight like shrews in the main hall?" ”

After the trial was finished, he walked out of the meeting hall with Feng Ji, and today, he is the real winner.

White Horse City

Liu Yan looked down from the low city wall with a gloomy face, and at the foot of the city lay the corpses of the technician Gu Yuan Jun, only a few of these soldiers who died in battle were wearing a few pieces of armor, most of the corpses were simply wrapped in cloth, and the weapons in their hands were only rudimentary wooden spears, not even a decent shield.

This kind of victory did not make Liu Yan feel happy, judging from the equipment, these were just private soldiers of families from all over Jizhou, who were forcibly requisitioned and transferred by Yuan Shao, and could be used as consumables for the war; The second is to weaken the strength of those families in disguise, no matter how many such soldiers die, Yuan Shao will not feel a little distressed.

Liu Yan looked up into the distance, and Yuan's camp was set up against the Yellow River. Banners were unfurled, and the momentum was huge, and these Yuan troops crossed the river from Liyang on the north bank of the Yellow River. Firmly grasped the important points on the south bank, and then calmly unfolded, surrounding White Horse City on all sides, and the arrogance was overflowing.

But what can Liu Yan do? This White Horse City is only three miles square, and there are only less than 2,000 combatable soldiers in the hands of him, the Taishou of the Eastern County, and even the residents of White Horse City are only more than 10,000 people. At this time, the Yuan army defending the small city had 15,000 people alone.

With the power of Yuan Jun, as long as he pushes gently. The city can be toppled down, and as soon as the White Horse City falls, the Jizhou army can continue to cross the Yellow River and go straight to Guandu. Attack Xuchang. But the strange thing is that the Yuan general on the opposite side seems to be absent-minded, except for sending some private soldiers of the big clan to test the defenders' will to resist, the main force has been holding still.

Liu Yan shook his head, White Horse City was already in danger, and it was useless to think about anything now, I hoped that General Deng Zhan would report the situation to Xun Lingjun as soon as possible, and he told the guards at the head of the city a few words. Then he walked down the bluestone staircase with a heart full of heart.

After Xun Yu, who was in Xudu, received Liu Yan's battle report, he immediately sent someone to inform Cao Cao. Asking him to decide, the sentinel exhausted three horses and messengers on the road, and finally arrived at the camp in Xuzhou on the third day, and handed Xun Yu's letter into Cao Cao's hands.

After reading Xun Yu's letter, Cao Cao couldn't help but shudder, he was most worried that something would happen, this wave of unsettled waves rose again and again, Cao Cao kneaded his forehead, and had a headache.

Guo Jia, who was drinking, saw Cao Cao's sad face, and slowly put down his wine glass, came to Cao Cao and asked, "Lord, what's going on!" ”

Cao Cao supported his forehead with his hand, put one arm on the table, raised the letter in his hand, and shook his head helplessly, he wanted to beat Xuzhou in one go, but Xuzhou was so big, there was no year of hard work to win, but in this year's time, Yuan Shao did not stab him in the back, no, Yuan Shao sent the general Yan Liang to the White Horse City in order to drain the water, if the White Horse City was broken, the Yuan army could be unimpeded, and crossed the Yellow River and went straight to Xuchang.

If Cao Cao returned to Xuchang at this time, Liu Bei and Tao Qian would be tantamount to stabbing him in the back, and if Cao Cao ignored it, Liu Beijin could coerce Yan and Qing Erzhou, and retreat to contact Liu Biao and Sun Ce, which was also a great trouble.

Guo Jia took the letter in Cao Cao's hand, read it carefully for a while, and then said with a smile: "Lord, attack Xuzhou with all your might, don't hesitate!" ”

Cao Cao was stunned, looked up at Guo Jia, and asked, "Fengxiao, now only you can solve my troubles!" ”

Guo Jia picked up the wine glass on Cao Cao's table, drank it all, and then smashed it in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Lord, do you know those strategists under Yuan Shao's account?" ”

Cao Cao said: "I've heard of it, but I haven't understood it!" ”

Guo Jia smiled lightly: "The lord knows that I stayed with Yuan Shao for a period of time back then, so I am no stranger to Yuan Shao's advisor Jia, and it is probably divided into three factions, the three factions support Yuan Shao's three sons Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang, Tian Feng Gangzheng, and Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan; Xu Yu is sycophant and supports Yuan Shao's favorite youngest son, Yuan Shang; The trial is scheming and supports Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi, all three of whom are the chief strategists under Yuan Shao's account, but they are fighting for each other because of their own interests! ”

After Guo Jia said these words, he suddenly felt that his mouth was dry, and he poured himself another glass of wine to drink, and then said intentionally: "Although Tian Feng has a plan, he just committed it, and Yuan Shao dislikes it the most; Xu You's flattery, coupled with his support for Yuan Shang, was quite appreciated by Yuan Shao; Although the judge supports Yuan Xi, he is good at attacking the heart, fighting snakes and hitting seven inches, he generally grasps Yuan Shao's character and puts forward reasonable suggestions, and Yan Liang led the army to besiege Baima, which is the product of their three ideologies! ”

Cao Cao seemed to understand a little, and tried to ask at the moment: "Tian Feng will suggest that Yuan Shao send troops to attack Baima, and then go straight to Xuchang; Xu You will pick good words to prevent Yuan Shao from sending troops; The trial will take care of Yuan Shao's character and let Yuan Shao besiege but not attack, do you mean that? ”

Guo Jia nodded and smiled: "Exactly!" ”

Cao Cao stroked his palms and laughed: "Feng Xiao's words are just for me to see the clouds!" ”

After laughing, Cao Cao immediately raised the account, he was not afraid of wolves and tigers, and ordered all battalions: three days can not break the city, all beheaded (to be continued.
