Since Chinese New Year's Eve, the snow has been falling endlessly.

As far as Wang Yu knows, the Heluo region in later generations should not be so cold. But thinking about it, it seems that there is a saying in the Xiaoice era in later generations, the most well-known is the middle and late Ming Dynasty, this kind of climate change, and a cycle of 1,500 years, reversed, the end of the Han Dynasty in terms of climate conditions, and the end of the Ming Dynasty should be similar.

The snow in Henan is not as cold as in Saibei, but it is more uncomfortable than the ice and snow in Saibei. The palm-sized snowflakes fell on the body, and were baked by the heat on the body, and turned into a handful of water in the blink of an eye. If the gentlemen of the Tang Dynasty accept the tea, it is a good material, but unfortunately everyone is going to fight in this trip, not to taste tea and poetry, which is inevitably a little out of place.

It's also very troublesome to fall on the ground, it's good not to touch it, the wilderness of pink jade carving, the scenery is also extraordinary, but when people step on horses, the ground is muddy. As soon as the north wind blew, the mud was frozen into ice in a blink of an eye, wet and slippery, adding great difficulties to the march.

According to Wang Yu's plan, he was supposed to make a rapid march and strive to complete the small 200-mile journey within three days. As a result, due to the influence of the weather, the army has been walking in the snow for two days, but there is still at least half the way ahead.

"It's really better to be a human being. Kong Ming, you should know a little about astronomy, right? Why don't you give a warning before you go? Wang Yu had a chance to talk to the people around him, and he was very impatient with this sudden snow.

Originally, it was well planned, as long as the rapid offensive was constantly launched and the Cao army was mobilized, sooner or later Lao Cao would be able to take care of one thing and lose the other, and he would have to fight with the whole army. But this snow destroyed everything, the marching speed slowed down, and the overall rhythm slowed down, Cao Ying had more time to think and judge, and the probability of being recruited was naturally lower.

Zhuge Liang's expectations for his lord had no intention of reciprocating at all, and replied solemnly: "Those who are proficient in astronomy, if they reach a certain level, can indeed know the changes in the weather, but they are only roughly the same, and if you want to be specific to each day, I am afraid that only the gods can do it." The minister is just a mortal, how can there be such a means? ”

"What is said in the book is really a lie...... Wang Yu muttered and spit out, the Kong Ming he knows, but the one in the novel who looks up at the stars and can calculate the first-class character of the land immortal who has a long life, and the one in front of him is much worse than the one in the legend.

"What did you say?" Wang Yu's muttering voice was too small, Zhuge Liang didn't hear it clearly for a while, and looked at Wang Yu with staring eyes, looking confused.

"I mean......" Wang Yu snorted, how could he explain, he turned to Zhao Yun and said: "Zilong is newly married to Yan'er, but he can't return, it's really not easy." ”

"The Lord is serious." Zhao Yun bowed slightly on the horse, the snow on his shoulders and back fell, and said loudly: "The world is not quiet, why do you want to be at home?" Zhao Yun is fortunate to be able to follow the lord, support the Han family, and achieve the foundation of eternal peace, which is not fast, and where can he take care of those children? ”

“…… Zilong is really husband. "Wang Yu Khan.

Zilong is good at everything, but he is too serious, and he is quite trustworthy as a general, but as a friend of the chat, he is a little uncomfortable.

In the past two years, I got along a lot with Ziyi's unserious and Yuan Zhi's slippery head, but it was a bit close to Zhu Zhechi. But in the past two years, the two have been away for a long time, and Zilong has not only restored his old view, but even has some intention of intensifying.

Originally, I was bored on the road and wanted to find someone to gossip, but it turned out that the two people around me were not good partners for small talk, and Wang Yu was also quite depressed.

But there is no way, Wen He is responsible for the military situation of the governor's battlefields, and he can't follow the army division to fight. Ziyi's guy couldn't be idle, so he asked for an errand to play as a striker, and he couldn't pull his newlywed wife Lu Qiling over to talk about his life ideals, right?

In fact, the most depressed person now should be Ziyi, who rushed to grab an errand for a pioneer officer, but he just cleared the snow in front all the way and opened the way, and he didn't even see a scout of Cao Jun, so it's strange if he is not aggrieved.

"It's a pity." Wang Yu sighed and sighed with emotion.

"yes!" Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun also nodded in agreement, they also knew why their lord was so depressed, and he had been unable to find words, this snow was really not the time.

The heavy snow enveloped the footsteps of both sides at the same time, but it was generally beneficial to Cao Ying, because Cao Ying's current situation was quite passive, which could be said to be a dilemma.

The whole army reinforces the Tiger Prison Pass, Chen Liu is empty, although he can ask Yuan Shu for help, but Yuan Shu is a special role for allies, so it is easy for him to enter the country, and it will be difficult to drive him away from Chen Liu in the future. Moreover, the overall combat strength of the Qingzhou cavalry is above the tiger and leopard cavalry, and Cao Ying is chasing after him, and it is easy to suffer from the surprise attack of the wind cavalry during the rapid march.

If you don't save it, it's even more troublesome, the blasting technology of the Qingzhou Army has been systematized, and combined with a powerful long-range offensive, it can easily take all the strongholds except Luoyang and Tiger Prison. Even if it is Tiger Prison Pass and Luoyang, it is only a short-term unhindered, and it is not impregnable.

With this heavy snowfall, Cao Ying doesn't need to be in a hurry, he can plan calmly, even if he rushes to reinforcements, he doesn't need to rush 100,000 urgently. The difficulty of fighting in snow is very great, and the siege is even more difficult, if the frozen soil is too strong, the power of gunpowder blasting will also be greatly reduced, and Wang Yu will definitely not risk attacking the city.

The initiative that was so easily created has been leveled out a lot, how can it not be regrettable? It is no wonder that the ancients put the time of day in the first place, and the impact of the sudden change in the wind and clouds is indeed great.

After another day, the army finally arrived at Chuilong City, which was thirty miles away from the Tiger Prison Pass.

After a series of battles and arduous treks, the soldiers' spirits have dropped a lot, and the heavy snow shows no signs of stopping, so it is not suitable to enter the battle immediately. So, Wang Yu gave an order, and the army camped on the spot and sent scouts to spy on the military situation.

Wang Yu left Yu Ban to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to stay in Fengqiu, and the main force still had more than 50,000, plus more than 30,000 auxiliary soldiers, there were nearly 100,000 people, which was far from being able to fit in a small county like Chuilongcheng.

In fact, the Qingzhou army has never been in the habit of stationing in the city, even in Qingzhou itself, the army is also set up camp far away from the town, and this time the camp is naturally set up on the bank of the Jishui River outside the city.

The placement of 100,000 troops was also more than ten miles of company camp, and it took more than two hours. After the camp was completed, even the generals showed a tired look on their faces, Wang Yu waved his hand, except for the vigilant troops on duty, everyone went to eat, rest, and recuperate.

Although Xiahou Dun, who was stationed at the Tiger Prison Pass, was also a fierce general, and he was waiting for work, Wang Yu would not believe that he would go out of the city to attack in such weather conditions. Thirty miles is not much, but it is not too much, but it is not a lot, if Xiahou Dun is really in danger, Wang Yu is also very sure to teach him a lesson, and even hit him hard.

When everything was almost settled, and the information from the front was sent in a steady stream, Wang Yu was even more sure that Xiahou Dun would not be bored looking for himself.

Xiahou Dun did not mean to defend in the Tiger Prison Pass, but relied on this Xiongguan Pass to set up a huge defensive formation. The open area to the east of the Tiger Prison Pass has long been gone, and several barracks have been built to shield the city gate, not to mention, in the barracks are also made up for by arrow towers, and the periphery is covered with trenches, horses, deer barricades and other defensive measures, and the whole gate is like a huge hedgehog!

Although he only listened to the scout's relay, with his rich military experience, Wang Yu was able to sketch out the general situation in his mind, and knew that there would definitely be no way to attack the Tiger Prison Pass like he did with Fengqiu.

"Well, let's wait until the snow stops." At this point, Wang Yu was not in a hurry, anyway, before the war, he had expected that it would be a protracted and difficult battle, and it was useless to rush it.

After waiting for two days, the snow finally stopped, and the information and supplies that had been delayed by the heavy snow were also sent in a steady stream. Most of the information was expected by Wang Yu, but there were some exceptions, just seeing the person who sent the letter surprised Wang Yu.

"Wenhe, why did you rush over? What the hell is going on? "The four major battlefields are far apart, Wang Yu led the army to fight in Sili, and it is difficult to determine the whereabouts, and someone needs to control the overall situation in the center of Dongjun. Jia Xu suddenly left his heavy responsibility and chased after Chuilong City, and the matter was obviously extraordinary.

"Dare to teach the lord to know ......"

Jia Xu usually smiles, like Maitreya Buddha, nothing will interfere with him, but at this moment, his face has a rare solemnity and seriousness, and even a little nervousness. As if he wanted to leave time for everyone to prepare in their hearts, he looked around, and then said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shu is the emperor!" ”

"What?"

Everyone was in an uproar, and Zhao Yun, who was the most loyal, even angrily reprimanded: "Rebels and thieves! The lord has made great contributions to the world, and he is still humble and cautious, he Yuan Shu just relies on his family background, circles the place in Huainan, and acts as a prestige, how can he dare to be so rebellious? ”

"What the third brother said is right!" Tai Shi Ci also shouted: "This guy is the most despicable and dirty, if it weren't for the magnanimity of the lord, this guy would have become a dry bone in the grave, how can he be free so far?" Now he dares to do such a rebellious thing, what a way to die! Why didn't the lord quickly pass the order to Xuzhou, and ordered the people of Junyi and Shiyuan to quickly cut it down, this guy didn't know the general trend, and went against the grain, and the military heart was definitely unstable, Xuzhou Yulin asked for it in the name of righteousness, and the people of Huai and Ru did not respond in groups? ”

In Qingzhou, there are also certain differences on the issue of whether Wang Yu is the emperor or not, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others resolutely support Wang Yu, and a group of people led by Yu Ban are all up to Wang Yu to make up his mind, and there are also Tai Shici, Wei Yan and others who are very unwilling.

Now that I heard that Yuan Shu had done this great disapproval in the world, coupled with Yuan Shu's capriciousness several times before, where could Tai Shici, who was surnamed Lie Ruhu, hold on, for a while, new hatred and old hatred came to his heart, if it weren't for the fact that Yuan Shu had a Cao Ying in between, maybe he would have asked for a battle to kill him.

Lu Qiling didn't feel anything about this, she was just very curious, Tai Shi Ci was okay, his usual style was very domineering and flamboyant, but Zhao Yun was a humble gentleman, even if he was calm as water on the battlefield, he often got along, and he couldn't see that he was a military general at all, and his gentle appearance like jade was completely the style of a scholar.

He was suddenly so excited, and it seemed that this matter was indeed very serious. can turn his head to look at the looks of his husband and the fat military division, between a pair of frowning eyebrows, it is clearly melancholy!

Lu Qiling was very puzzled, reached out and pulled Wang Yu's sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Husband, is this matter very tricky?" ”

Wang Yu replied with a wry smile: "This matter itself is nothing, but at this juncture, it is troublesome." ”

Jia Xu echoed with relatives on the side: "If you don't do it, you won't die, why can't this Yuan Highway figure it out, so he has to make himself die?" This man is really incurable. ”
