The development of events seems to confirm Guo Tu's conjecture, and the good news comes one after another. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 First of all, after the general Song Feng arrived in Wuyuan, he summoned the commander of the Niutou tribe to crack the wind and demanded that the Niutou tribe surrender to the Han Dynasty, but the two sides did not negotiate and started a war in Junji Mountain. Song Feng ordered Zhao Yun to lead Lu Bu and others as the vanguard to fight fiercely with the Niutou tribe, Yiwu Sima Xiahou Yuan led the Liangzhou Han Seven Battalion to rush out from the west, and defeated the Niutou tribe in one fell swoop, and the wind broke through with more than 1,000 horsemen, and the others became Zhao Yun's prisoners.

Because of the merits of the war, Zhao Yun and Xiahou Yuan were reinstated, under the command of Song Feng, the army was divided into two parts, one led by Xiahou Yuan to the west to pursue the split wind, and the other was led by Song Feng himself, to the east to attack the upper valley and Daijun in the north of Youzhou, its intention was obvious, as Yuan Shao estimated, Song Feng wanted to recapture Youzhou, cut off Yuan Shao's retreat, and form a north-south attack.

Soon, General Song Feng's ultimatum was sent to Yi County, confirming Yuan Shao's conjecture. Song Feng first explained the situation of the imperial court very arrogantly, such as today's prince is in the world, the cadres are arbitrary, the internal worries have gone, the external troubles will be eliminated, and Jizhou is bound to win. If Yuan Shao can understand the time and surrender, he can ask the Son of Heaven for pardon for Yuan Shao's sins, and he will be demoted to a commoner, without worrying about his life. If you don't know the current affairs, you will resist stubbornly, and then the jade will be burned, and it will be too late to regret it.

Yuan Shao sneered and said to Guo Tu, Fu Zhu and others: "Song Feng has endured it for many years, and once he got his will, his villain was revealed. ”

Guo Tu echoed: "What the lord said is very true, although the Song family is a relative, but it was suppressed by the eunuch Cao Jie before, and the family was almost ruined. Later, with the help of Liu Xiu, he finally retained the position of queen, but Liu Xiu robbed the limelight, and now that Liu Xiu is also dead, the Song family can finally breathe a sigh of relief and be majestic. He smiled and said a little sourly: "This is because of people's success, and there are always a lot of grievances." It's also understandable, the lord doesn't care about him. ”

Yuan Shao laughed.

Frustrated, his eyebrows tightened, and there was no trace of a smile on his face. \/\/.. \/\/ Yuan Shao saw it and was unhappy. put away his smile and said lightly: "Zifu, do you have any opinions, if you have an opinion, just say it, let's discuss it together, I'm not a word here." ”

Guo Tu had already seen the frustrated face, and at this time he also said, "Exactly." Zifu, most of the opinions you raised earlier have been adopted and implemented, so what else do you have to worry about? ”

Frustrated Zhu didn't look at Guo Tu, got up and said, "Lord, this matter ...... I think there is something unclear, so please be careful. ”

"What's the difference?"

"Zhao Yun and Xiahou Yuan are both people that Liu Xiu relies on, and Liu Xiu entered the Luoyang Palace. Zhao Yun led the state army to Hedong, and Xiahou Yuan led the Liangzhou army to Chang'an, and they all made it clear that they wanted to support Liu Xiu. Even if the imperial court didn't dispose of them, how could they be so obedient and obey Song Feng's orders instead? With their abilities, it is impossible not to imagine the fate of the cunning rabbit dying and the lackeys cooking. ”

Yuan Shao glanced at Guo Tu and laughed. Guo Tu also smiled, stood up, pressed Fu Yu back to his seat, and said very kindly: "Zifu, you have these uncertainties, I can understand it." This is because there is some information that has not been communicated to you. It's not that the lord doesn't trust you, it's out of the need for confidentiality, and I ask Zifu to forgive me. ”

Frustrated, he inadvertently brushed Guo Tu's hand away. "Dare to ask."

Guo Tu was a little annoyed, stood up, asked Yuan Shao with his eyes, and then said loudly: "You don't know. Before Liu Xiu entered Luoyang, his generals once sent their children to Jiangling, called Jingzhou Academy to study, in fact, they were hostages loyal to Liu Xiu. Now that Liu Xiu's mutiny failed, these hostages naturally fell into the hands of the imperial court. With these hostages in hand, what can Zhao Yun and Xiahou Yuan do, do they still have to tear their faces for the already failed Liu Xiu and the imperial court, even if they sacrifice their own children? ”

When he heard this, he was also a little surprised, and after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that Zhao Yun and Xiahou Yuan's choice was reasonable. If Liu Xiu still had a chance, they might sacrifice their lives for wealth and nobility, not caring about their children's lives. Now that Liu Xiu is dead, there is no point in them doing this again, endure it and take a step back, even if it is difficult to escape in the future, it is better than dying now.

However, is Liu Xiu really dead? Frustrated professor is still a little uneasy.

Guo Tu shook his head and said very sincerely: "Whether Liu Xiu is dead or not, we can't be sure yet." However, there are a few signs, and we can roughly infer that even if Liu Xiu does not die, his current situation is not good. One of them...... "He held up a finger and looked around proudly, all these news were obtained by him with great effort, and he finally had the opportunity to show off in front of everyone, how could he easily let it go." "The Queen Mother's funeral was presided over by the Son of Heaven, but Liu Xiu, who was the king of Chu, was nowhere to be seen."

"Second, what is currently transmitted to all states and counties is the edict of the Son of Heaven, and there is not a single word from Liu Xiu."

"Third, the already idle palace of the King of Chu is surrounded by the Northern Army, and idlers are not allowed to approach, and they are not allowed to enter or exit. I suspect that Liu Xiu's family is likely to be imprisoned. ”

"Fourth, the Tai Chi Dao Hall in the south of the city, that is, where Liu Xiu's personal guard camp is stationed, is now empty, as for whether these personal guard camps were all slaughtered, or were dispersed to solve, there is no conclusion at present, according to the information inquired, on the night of Liu Xiu's forced palace, Cao Cāo led an army of 30,000 to surround the Tai Chi Taoist Hall in the name of surveillance. After dawn the next day, there was not a single soldier or horse near the Tai Chi Taoist Hall. What exactly happened, you can guess. ”

Everyone listened and looked at each other, if what Guo Tu said was true, then the failure of Liu Xiu's mutiny seemed to be a foregone conclusion.

After thinking about it repeatedly, he couldn't find any loopholes, it was Guo Tu who was in charge of confidential information, and he refuted Guo Tu without evidence, which was likely to cause Yuan Shao's disgust. He put down the topic and said, "My lord, no matter what happened to Zhao Yun and Xiahou Yuan, it is a fact that Song Feng is now leading a large army to attack Daijun and Shanggu. Their intentions are self-evident, and naturally they are to attack Jizhou from the north and south. Lord, you must not ignore it. ”

Yuan Shao nodded: "What Zifu said is very true. Although Song Feng is not proficient in military affairs, Zhao Yun and others should not be underestimated. They may stop at nothing to survive. The big battle with the Minotaur tribe can prove their current mentality. The Niutou tribe is the hometown of Liu Xiu's concubine, and the relationship with Liu Xiu has always been very good, they can attack and kill, and there is no need to show mercy to us. He put away his smile and looked around solemnly: "Everyone, the situation in Luoyang has been decided, and the crisis in Jizhou is coming, and I hope you will work together to overcome this difficulty." ”

"Whoa!" The crowd responded in unison.

Yuan Shao stood up, Guo Tu stepped in front of the map in two steps, lifted the silk drawn on the map, and took a wooden stick with both hands. Yuan Shao took the baton in his hand and clicked on the map. "The plan of the imperial court is obvious, they want to cut off the retreat of our army first, and then send troops from Yanzhou to attack from the north and south, and gradually encroach. However, Jizhou is not something they want to attack. ”

"My lord is right." Guo Tu responded: "The minister thinks that although our army only has one state, it has three victories. First, it was the height of summer, and it was not suitable for attack. The little emperor is not familiar with military affairs, and he sent troops on time, how can he not be defeated? This is the time of the day that is beneficial to me. Second, Jizhou is a hundred cities of all sizes, the city is strong and the pond is deep, and the waterways are vertical and horizontal, which is conducive to lasting and not conducive to quick victory. If the time comes, the imperial army will be under the fortified city, and the old soldiers of the division will be tired, and our army can calmly counterattack and win in one fell swoop. This is in my favor. ”

Guo Tu proudly raised his third finger: "Third, the imperial court has just gone through a civil strife, and the people are panicked and difficult to feel at ease. The little emperor killed Liu Xiu, who had the grace of nurturing, and the ministers lost their hearts, but my lord was wise, and the ministers were of one heart and one mind, which was beneficial to my people and also. The time and place are favorable, and all three are in me, how can I not win? ”

Frustrated and frowned, but it was difficult to refute. He knew that these words were all Guo Tu's comfort to Yuan Shao, especially the last sentence was even more naked touting, but he couldn't refute him in front of so many people, otherwise Yuan Shao would definitely be angry, and no matter what he said next, Yuan Shao would not listen. He endured his nausea, stood up and arched his hand, interrupted Guo Tu's continued bragging, and asked very seriously: "Everyone sees these three. However, Song Feng's army is about to arrive in Youzhou, how will our army deal with it? ”

Yuan Shao waved his hand, signaled to be calm and calm, and then motioned Guo Tu to retreat with his eyes, and then coughed: "What I want to talk about is the military this time." Ladies and gentlemen, you see, this is the topography of Youzhou. Attacking from north to south, there are the following roads, one is the military capital, the second is the flying fox, and the third is Lu Longsai, no matter which road it is, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It can be said that Song Feng replaced the county and Shanggu Yi, but it was extremely difficult to attack Jizhou from this. Yanshan and Taihang are all natural hazards to protect Jizhou, as long as we keep these roads, we can make Song Feng look at the mountain and sigh. It is not easy for him to attack in the south, but it is easy for me to attack in the north, and it is difficult to say who will win or lose when the time comes. If the northern front cannot be attacked, then the attack on the southern front will naturally be impossible. Ladies and gentlemen, Song Feng's dispatch to Youzhou is not our crisis, but an opportunity for us to turn defeat into victory. ”

Yuan Shao knocked on the table with the wooden stick in his hand, raising his voice, impassioned and high-spirited. "As long as we defeat Song Feng, those people in the imperial court will think of Liu Xiu again, the prestige of the Son of Heaven has been greatly lost, and the people's hearts are fluctuating, which is an opportunity for me to counterattack. At that time, on the northern route, we will hold Song Feng's main force, and on the southern route, we will go straight to Hanoi and Luoyang, and the overall situation can be determined. ”

He looked around and sneered: "Although Liu Xiu is arrogant, I have to say that he is a rare genius in the use of soldiers. When the fire of the Han Dynasty was about to be extinguished, it was able to support it to this day, and Liu Xiu's contribution was indispensable. Even I am ashamed of myself, now the little emperor does not know the height of the sky, killing Liu Xiu, with Song Feng and other mediocre talents as generals, he is self-destructing the city, which is the sign of the end of the life of the Han Dynasty. Everyone......" He clenched his hands into fists, slammed them on the case, and roared: "This is the will of heaven!" ”

Guo Tu bowed down in response: "God bless the Yuan family!" ”

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, turned over and bowed down, and shouted: "God bless the Yuan family!" ”

The second is to ask for all kinds of tickets!
