Chapter 264: Victory

Yuan Min looked at Chen Dao and said with a slight smile: "Your Excellency is very skilled, the so-called people gather by like, and things are divided by groups." How can someone who can walk with Shi A, the first swordsman of the Han Dynasty, be easy to match? ”

As soon as Yuan Min said this, the person who reacted the most was Li Yan, he always thought that these officers and soldiers in front of him were coming for him, but who knew that the Dao world did not take himself to heart at all, but instead looked at "Wu Yu" attentively, and even called out Shi A's name.

Li Yan realized that the person standing opposite him was the current No. 1 swordsman of the Han Dynasty, and he couldn't help but feel excited, although he had already seen that the two people in front of him were not ordinary people, but he didn't expect it to be so big, and it seemed that these two people knew each other in the first place.

But Li Yan was not angry because the two of them were hiding many things from him, he was originally very fond of these two people's newly met friends, and he could also see that Shi A did not mean to hide from him, there must be a last resort.

If a loner like Xiang Shi'a wants to hide his identity now, it must be because of a very special reason.

However, Shi A didn't ask too much, let alone show the slightest strangeness on his face, and he didn't reveal his identity.

Although Li Yan is strong-blooded, innocent and sincere, he is definitely not a fool, of course he can see that something big is happening in Chang'an City, otherwise he would not be able to see Shi A, you must know that Shi Agnai is the first swordsman of the Han Dynasty today, he should have stayed in the palace, and now he actually ran outside the palace, doesn't this explain the problem?

Liu Biao is a well-known figure in the court, as one of the "Eight Jun", and has an inextricable relationship with many figures in the court. Now that something big has happened in the imperial court, who knows what Chang'an City has become. Of course, Li Yan can't reveal his identity easily.

But Li Yan is absolutely going to fight the two people in front of him to the end. put on a resolute posture of fighting to the death.

However, Li Yan's attitude misunderstood Yuan Min and the others opposite, and they all thought that Li Yan was Shi A's helper. Therefore, he didn't take Li Yan to heart at all.

In this way, even Chen Zhi, a big man, was regarded by them as Li Yan's subordinate. And that's what Yuan Min thought, so he had this meaning in his words.

Chen Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and Xu Ji, who was hiding in the shadows, felt even more amused.

It seems that Hua Xiong and Yuan Min on the opposite side didn't see that the person standing opposite them was Chen Dao, who they had eliminated quickly, and his own "Lejin" who was hiding in the shadows.

Xu Ji also knew that Hua Xiong would certainly not know Chen Dao, otherwise Chen Zhi's plan to lure the enemy just now would not have succeeded, and Hua Xiong would not have despised Chen Dao so much.

However, at this time, Xu Ji had another plan in his heart, since Yuan Min couldn't see Chen Dao's marksmanship, then obviously he didn't know who he sent to Chang'an, so it seemed that Yuan Min's arrival was not due to the cooperation of Wang Yun and Yuan Shao.

If Yuan Shao and Wang Yun cooperate. Yuan Min must have recognized Chen Zhi from Chen Zhi's martial arts at this moment, so his existence is not a secret at all.

Yuan Min is not Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong is a rude person, where would he notice these things.

But Yuan Min is different, just looking at the characters he trained, you can know that Yuan Min is as careful as a hair. If Yuan Min was ordered by Wang Yun to come out to find Chen Zhi and himself, he would definitely ask Lu Bu about Chen Dao's martial arts characteristics.

You must know that there are very few people who have really seen Chen Zhi in this era, and I am afraid that only Yan Liangwen and others in Yuan Shaojun can see the characteristics of Chen Zhi's deliberately disguised martial arts. But these two people are still by Yuan Shao's side now, and they have never touched Chen Zhi, so it is naturally impossible to tell Yuan Min.

And then Lu Bu has seen it, so if Yuan Min is really the person sent by Yuan Shao to assist Wang Yun. At this moment, Chen Dao's name had already been called.

In this way, Xu Ji was even more puzzled, what did Yuan Min come to do?

Now he has a total of three combat powers, but now whether it is Chen Zhi or his own identity hidden in the shadows, he is insignificant in the eyes of the other party like Li Yan, so people definitely do not come in the spirit of Chen Zhi and Li Yan or themselves. Of course, it can only go to Shi A.

But Shi A is just a son of a poor family, although he is a great Han swordsman, but he doesn't have much use value.

Therefore, this Yuan Min is obviously running for Liu Xie as he is worried.

All the time. What Yuan Shao didn't like was Liu Xie, and he didn't recognize Liu Xie's position.

So when Yuan Shao knew that Liu Yu wanted to secretly welcome back Liu Xie. Only then did he reveal the news to Liu Yan, the assassin of Yizhou, which led to Zhang Renhui's attack on the princes of various places on the way. The purpose is simple. That is to hope to put Liu Xie to death.

Regarding this point, Xu Ji feels that it makes sense.

But if you think about this matter carefully, you will immediately find that this matter is not so simple, Xu Ji has always been very incomprehensible to Yuan Shao telling Wang Yun that Liu Yu is going to welcome Liu Xie back, because it is really not beneficial to Yuan Shao at all. Because after Wang Yun got rid of Dong Zhuo, he would definitely control the government and use Liu Xie to issue orders to the princes of the world.

Therefore, Yuan Shao's notification of Wang Yun is unbelievable.

However, looking at Yuan Min in front of him, Xu Ji suddenly understood Yuan Shao's intentions.

It seems that Yuan Shao's strategy has changed, and Yuan Shao also wants to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

As far as Xu Ji's speculation is concerned, in fact, Yuan Shao does not have any sensory judgment of Liu Xie's personal likes and dislikes, and one of the main reasons why Yuan Shao does not recognize Liu Xie is because Yuan Shao has no way to control Liu Xie in his hands.

In other words, if there is a chance to control Liu Xie, Yuan Shao will immediately have a face, and he will definitely be the first person to recognize Liu Xie's status, but he is just suffering from not having this opportunity.

In the past, Yuan Shao was ready to use Liu Yu just because Liu Yu was a good talker and there was nothing he could do, so he controlled him.

However, the cooperation with Wang Yun gave Yuan Shao hope for control of Liu Xie.

Yuan Shao must have been very happy when he learned that Wang Yun was going to get rid of Dong Zhuo, because his opportunity to control Liu Xie had arrived.

It is not difficult to see from this series of things in Chang'an that Wang Yun is not a person who has a last resort, and there are many loopholes in his thinking, Yuan Shaozhi said that Wang Yun would definitely ignore Liu Xie when he got rid of Dong Zhuo. Therefore, robbing Liu Xie at this time should be the best time.

But a big trouble for Yuan Shao was that they didn't have the ability to take Liu Xie out of the palace.

Therefore, Yuan Shaoshao and Xu Ji chose the same method, hoping that Liu Bei would take Liu Xie out of the palace first. Then he snatched Liu Xie back from Liu Bei's hands.

However, Yuan Shaozhi said that he didn't have such a strong strength, so he could pack a ticket and say that he could snatch Liu Xie from Liu Bei's hands, after all, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the tiger generals in the world. Even Lu is not right, these two people also have a headache. And Yuan Shao now has only Yan Liangwen and Chou who can be of great use, but after being defeated by Xu Ji, he naturally needs one or two generals under his younger brother to sit for him, and the other one who can barely be said is Han Fu's nephew Han Meng.

So Yuan Shao used a second strategy, that is, to tell Wang Yun and Zhang Ren the news, it was not that he hoped that Wang Yun would snatch Liu Xie back or that Zhang Ren would kill Liu Xie, but that Wang Yun and Zhang Ren would have a big battle with Liu Bei after Liu Bei snatched Liu Xie, and then they could fish in troubled waters.

This can only be seen from Wang Yun's unclear understanding of Liu Bei's actions, and Yuan Shao only revealed this matter to Wang Yun a little.

And Zhang Renzhi has a little more news, but that is because Liu Bei once he successfully left Chang'an City. will master a large number of Youzhou garrisons outside the city, and at this time, it is necessary to have a large-scale army to deal with Liu Bei.

Therefore, Yuan Shaocai sent Yuan Min, and this is the only reasonable explanation.

But what Yuan Shao didn't expect was that he had his own variable inserted halfway.

Yuan Min must have already prepared inside and outside Chang'an City, but because of his own intervention, Liu Xie's route out of Chang'an City was much more than they expected.

By the time they realized that Liu Xie had been taken away, it was already too late.

And Zhang Ren, who learned the news from Yuan Min, was also misled by Yuan Shao's news, so he failed to intercept it, but because of the reasons outside the city, Zhang Ren's cavalry was relatively mobile. So he hurriedly set up a trap and waited for himself and Chen Zhi and others to jump in, but it wasn't until the last that Zhang Ren realized that what he had intercepted was not Liu Bei and others after the bloody battle. It's about recuperating and recharging, and many times the shadow is elite.

In this way, the blood debt of Wen Ping and the two hundred phantom elites should also be counted as Yuan Shao's share.

Come to think of it. The murderous intent in Xu Ji's heart flashed. This account must be paid in full in the future.

As for this Yuan Min, then he must have known everything that happened inside and outside Chang'an City, so he was secretly looking for Shi A. The purpose is very simple, of course, it is to kill Shi A. Rob Liu Xie, so come. Yuan Shao's chances of making a comeback will be much greater.

Thinking of this, Xu Ji felt a pang in his heart: a prerequisite for coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes is that the princes themselves must have strong strength, otherwise it is easy to arouse the hostility of other princes, and then war.

So Yuan Shao is now so eager to hold Liu Xie in his own hands, which means that Yuan Shao already has the strength and opportunity to make a comeback, or a method.

So what did Yuan Shao rely on?

Yuan Shao's own strength has almost been lost, but there are some potential strengths that must be calculated, such as Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, and Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang, all of whom are supporters of Yuan Shao, and there are many troops.

Also, Yuan Shao now lives in Yuan Shu, but Runan itself is the base camp of the Yuan family, where Yuan Shao is easy to make a comeback.

What's more, Yuan Shao is the best at using his prestige to recruit the world's heroes and wise men to contribute to himself, so as long as the operation is done properly, Yuan Shao is likely to subvert Yuan Shu and become the master of Yuzhou in the end.

But if things were just so simple, Xu Ji wouldn't be worried, and now Yuan Shao dared to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so he didn't take Xu Ji seriously.

Yuan Shao is not a fool, in the past few years of confrontation with himself, Yuan Shao is always at a disadvantage, if he is not completely sure, Yuan Shao will definitely not provoke himself.

Now that Yuan Shao has to control Liu Xie in his own hands, that is to say, Yuan Shao already has a way to deal with himself.

The problem is that Xu Ji really can't guess what Yuan Shao can do to restrain his death hole. Did he really believe the false news he spread to the outside world: he and Guo Jia were already at odds because of the affairs in Jizhou?

Or use your own retinue to do it to your own family? Or is there another way to do it yourself?

Because it is so difficult to guess, Xu Ji feels a little apprehensive in his heart. However, Yuan Shao will never be hard-hitting, at most it is a little conspiracy.

Shi Ah didn't think of it that much. After listening to Yuan Min's words, he sneered: "What I said." We put so many obstacles and camouflages on the way, and we were still discovered. It turns out that with you Yuan Min here, it is not strange at all. ”

At this time, Hua Xiong was shocked, walked over, hugged his fist to Yuan Min and said: "It turned out to be Mr. Yuan Min, the great swordsman of Chen Guo, Hua Xiong is polite, thank you Mr. Yuan Min for saving his life, but I don't know what Mr. Yuan Min is doing here?" ”

Yuan Min looked at Hua Xiong and said with a smile: "General Hua Xiong doesn't have to be polite. Small things don't have to be taken to heart. I, Yuan Min, was just passing by here, because I saw my old friend Mr. Shi A, so I couldn't help but make a little joke, and now there is nothing to do, so I will hurry. ”

Of course, Hua Xiong didn't know that Yuan Min was here for Liu Xie, but Hua Xiong was a bit of a brain after all, and he knew that the matter was not as simple as Yuan Min said, but Hua Xiong would not embarrass Yuan Min.

First, Yuan Min is his savior. Second, Yuan Min has nothing to lose by leaving.

And Yuan Min didn't ask why he wanted to besiege Shi A, it was obviously a sign of weakness that he didn't want to be in it, and Hua Xiong was too late to be happy with Yuan Min's attitude.

He nodded and said, "In this way, Huaxiong will not delay Mr. to hurry." ”

Yuan Min nodded. He glanced at Shi Ah meaningfully, then turned around and left with his men. didn't even say hello to Shi A.

Shi A was stunned, and he didn't understand what this Yuan Min was doing. But it's a good thing that Yuan Min is gone. The people under his command are really difficult, if Yuan Min stays here today. It's not easy to get out on your own.

Xu Ji on the side sneered in his heart, of course he knew what was going on. The reason why Yuan Min did it just now was very simple, it was because Yuan Min got the news that Liu Xie was in Shi A's hands, so he sent so many masters to besiege them.

But when Yuan Min found out that there was no child-like person in Shi A's hands at all, he immediately knew that something must have happened, and Liu Xie was no longer in Shi A's hands now.

And Chen Zhi, who was exposed in front of them, now looks like a man with five big and three thick, it can't be Liu Xie, although Li Yan looks quiet and delicate, but he is also older, and he doesn't have a bit of an emperor's taste on his body, but he looks like a person in the grass. What's more, it is impossible for Liu Xie to have such powerful martial arts. So Liu Xie is not here. And although he is somewhat similar, he is hiding in the dark, so he chooses to retreat immediately.

After all, there are only two possibilities in the current situation, one is that Shi A hid this Liu Xie, and the other is that Shi A lost Liu Xie.

That's why Yuan Min decided to leave immediately to find Liu Xie.

However, Yuan Min decided that he must kill Shi A first, because as soon as Shi A died, no one would know the fact that Liu Xie was not by Shi A's side, which would mislead Wang Yun to send the eyes of the people looking for Liu Xie, which would make it easier for Yuan Min to act.

Therefore, Yuan Min didn't make a move for a long time, just waiting for the moment when Shi A was tired, he sneaked up on the side and made a successful attack. Everyone could see that Chen Zhi and Li Yan beside Shi A were two extremely powerful masters, which caught Yuan Min off guard, so Yuan Min would continue to send more people and vow to take down the three of them.

However, the appearance of Huaxiong obviously made Yuan Min change his plan.

Yuan Min didn't save Hua Xiong out of good intentions, but to use Hua Xiong, as long as he saw Shi A's Hua Xiong alive, then Hua Xiong would send people to chase and kill Shi Ah all the time.

If this is the case, no matter whether Shi A really lost Liu Xie or hid Liu Xie somewhere, Shi A will not have time to take care of Liu Xie anymore. Because Shi A has to deal with Hua Xiong's entanglement, if Hua Xiong's is killed by himself just now, then the soldiers under Hua Xiong's hands will be scattered, where can anyone drag the three of them for Yuan Min?

After all, Yuan Min was a clear-eyed person, so he could naturally see that these long knife hands could no longer hold off the three of them for too long.

Hua Xiong is a military general in Chang'an City, how could there be no one to look for Chen Zhi and Shi A? So Hua Xiong definitely has the strength to entangle the three of them.

In this way, Yuan Min's opportunity has come, and Yuan Min can calmly look for Liu Xie. But hateful Xu Ji found that he had no way to stop it at this time, if the most headache was to Yuan Min and know that he was also here, then Yuan Min would definitely not mind uniting with Huaxiong to kill him.

You must know that Yuan Shao's main enemy is himself, if he kills himself, it will be a hundred, and it will not be long before the power of the Central Plains will be reshuffled. Although Xu Ji has not revealed his identity for the time being, after this series of events, no one must be able to guess the true identity of his fake Lejin.

What's more important is that the current Yuan Min does have the strength to get rid of himself, even if Chen Zhi and Shi A can kill the long knife hand under Yuan Min's hands, they will pay a great price, and when the time comes, they will have to face Hua Xiong, whether they have the strength and opportunity to escape is one thing. At that time, he was just a piece of fat on the chopping board.

Therefore, it is a good thing that Yuan Min and Hua Xiong can't find themselves.

It looks like another bloody battle. It's just cheaper than Yuan Min.

Hua Xiong is simple-minded, and he doesn't know how to be used by others. He is very happy now, because Shi A, the person who is wanted by Wang Yun, is in front of him, as long as he catches Wang Yun, it will be a great achievement.

Hua Xiong completely forgot that Shi A's biggest value now is that he has Liu Xie in his hands, but now Liu Xie is not in Shi A's hands, which means that there is something else in it. If Huaxiong is smart enough. He should have sent someone back immediately to report to Wang Yun that he had learned.

At this time, Yuan Min had already led his long knife hand to slowly leave the woods.

Hua Xiong almost lost his life under Chen Zhide just now, and of course he hated Chen Zhi to the extreme, so after Yuan Min walked out of the dense forest, Hua Xiong immediately signaled and ordered the soldiers he brought to start surrounding the dense forest.

Hua Xiong sneered at Chen Zhi: "Today mine will kill your dog!" ”

I saw Chen Zhi Ha Lu laughing, and then whispered quickly to Shi A and Li Yan: "I'll contain them, and the two of you will lead the war horse, so we can fight our way out of the encirclement!" ”

The two nodded. (To be continued......)
