Seeing Wei Yan come back with a disgraced face, Liu Bei and the others were immediately very excited, and they hurriedly rushed out to greet him.

Liu Bei held Wei Yan's hand tightly, tears flashed in his bright eyes, and he said with emotion: "Wen Chang, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

Wei Yan was shaken by Liu Bei's hand, and his heart was very uncomfortable, and to put it simply, he was angry with Liu Bei.

At the beginning, he was seriously injured, but Liu Bei sent himself to fight for Zhang Fei's danger, but now it's a good thing, Zhang Fei did run out in the way of a bare-bones commander, but he fell into Yuan Shang's hands!

When Zhang Fei was trapped in Gushan, Liu Bei struggled to save himself, why is it his turn to fall now, but he didn't see Liu Bei send a soldier, casually touched two handfuls of tears, and said a few words of comfort? This treatment is inevitably a little too different!

Wei Yan was angry in his heart, but he didn't come out, and most people couldn't see it, and the generals Hula surrounded him all at once, up and down, and looked at him carefully, but Zhang Fei asked in a humble voice: "Wen Chang, why are you back?" Did Yuan Shang put you back? We are thinking about how to break through Yuan's army and save you! ”

Wei Yan snorted coldly in his heart, and secretly said that it sounded good!

"I don't know why Yuan Shang let me come back, maybe I don't care." Wei Yan's heart was not smooth, but his speech was plain and bland, and the anger in his heart was full of resuffocation.

If it is said that the last time he was captured, it was because he underestimated Pang De and deserved to be humiliated, then this time, it was purely Liu Bei's selfishness and Zhang Fei's command mistakes.

Zhang Fei didn't feel Wei Yan's dissatisfaction, but he was worried about his escape. Wei Yan was still very uncomfortable in his heart, he strode forward, grabbed Wei Yan, and said to him: "Just come back, go!" Let's drink two glasses of wine in the tent, and give Brother Wei a crush on you. ”

Wei Yan didn't refute either, let Zhang Fei pull him, and walked into the tent.

*******************

After letting Wei Yan go, Yuan Shang's military horses began to retreat in full force. Withdraw the defense line to the front line of Yangping Pass, set up camp here, and make a final confrontation with Liu Bei.

Of course, if Yangping Pass is lost, then Hanzhong will no longer have room to stay, and it should be retreated.

Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses had also withdrawn to the Laiyangping Pass battle line at this moment, and after making peace with Yuan Shang, they jointly arranged soldiers and horses and waited for Liu Bei's attack.

After the encampment is properly arranged. Yuan Shang, accompanied by Zhao Yun, went to a camp, that is, Xiahou Yuan's camp.

The old man was injured and didn't come to take a look. I can't say anything about it.

Xiahou Yuan's injury had not healed, and he was resting on the bed at the moment, when suddenly the curtain was lifted, but he saw Yuan Shang striding in.

Xiahou Yuan opened his mouth. Just wanted to speak, but saw Yuan Shang raise his hand and block his words. Be the first to speak.

"Let me ask you a question, five children are divided into a watermelon, and they are only going to cut it with three knives, how can we ensure that within three knives, every child has a piece of watermelon in their hands?"

Xiahou Yuan was stunned when he heard this, lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and said, "It should be...... Can't cut it out, right? ”

Yuan Shang shook his head and said, "Simple! Hack a child to death with one knife, and then cut the watermelon into four pieces with two knives! ”

Xiahou Yuan was stunned when he asked, opened his mouth and slumped for a long time, before he said: "How unjust that little kid died!" ”

Yuan Shang's eyes widened, grabbed Xiahou Yuan's clothes, and said angrily: "You also know that the child died unjustly? I think you're more stupid than him! The child died, and his companions ate the watermelon to remember him, what is it if you die! Do you think that if you are so dead, Cao Cao will miss you if he knows it? Cao Zhi will think you are loyal in Yecheng? Your niece Xiahou Juan will be proud of you? Phew! When your granddaughter grows up and asks me how his grandfather died, how do you ask me to answer? Do you mean that I didn't command properly, or that I was narrow-minded and forced her grandfather to die in Dingjun Mountain! ”

Xiahou Yuan's eyes widened, staring at Yuan Shang quietly for a long time, and then he suddenly raised his hand, knocked off Yuan Shang's hand holding him, and said angrily: "I'm not decadent enough to need you to teach me a lesson!" ”

"I hope it's the best!" Yuan Shang didn't care, clapped his hands, and said, "Sue you, if you still have the will to seek death next time, I will retire Xiahou Juan when I go home!" Do you believe it or not? ”

"You dare!" Xiahou Yuan suddenly became angry, got up irritably, and said, "You dare to divorce my juan'er, I will destroy your life with one sword!" ”

"Then don't die, take a good look at me!" Yuan Shang is-for-tat, neither humble nor arrogant.

After being silent for a long time, Xiahou Yuan suddenly sighed, shook his head and sat down, and said with a wry smile: "I can't see it, you have a lot of affection for me, in order to break my will to die, you can even say such words as divorce from my wife......

"Save it, don't be narcissistic, I haven't liked you to the point where I can throw my wife away." Yuan Shang shook his head and said helplessly: "Everyone dies once, but at this point, I don't think it's worth it for you to die, if you really die, your old man had better give me a good death." ”

Hearing this, Xiahou Yuan raised his head, looked at Yuan Shang, and said: "Now that your soldiers and horses have shrunk to Yangping Pass, Liu Bei's main force of the Sichuan army is coming, you have used several cunning tactics against the Sichuan army, but after all, you can't change the general trend, and now Liu Bei is like a tiger, how are you going to deal with it?" ”

Yuan Shang glanced at Xiahou Yuan and said, "Defeat, ambush, fire plan...... I basically used everything that could be used, and the next battle was a tough one, and there was no strategy to do. The fight is the two armies. ”

Xiahou Yuan hesitated when he heard this: "Fight hard, with the current strength of Hanzhong, I am only afraid of ......"

"Do you have a better way?"

"I ......"

"Shut up if you don't."

Xiahou Yuan: "............"

After saying a few words to Xiahou Yuan, Yuan Shang immediately hurriedly turned back to the big tent and started the military meeting.

At this time, Zhao Yun, Sima Yi, Pang De, Gan Ning, Xu Huang, Ma Dai, Du Xi and others were among them, and when they saw Yuan Shang coming in, they hurriedly greeted them.

Zhao Yun took the lead to meet Yuan Shang and said in a low voice: "Lord, the scout is coming, Liu Bei's army is divided into three routes, and they go straight to Yangping Pass. ”

Yuan Shang rubbed his nose, looked around, and said, "Liu Bei raised a large army to attack Yangping, this is our last line of defense in Hanzhong, you have been discussing it for a long time, I don't know what good plan you have?" ”

Hearing this, Sima Yi stepped forward and said: "Suitable talents, all the generals have offered ideas, but they are not ideal, and they are not of great use. ”

Yuan Shang sat down on the handsome seat when he heard this, and said, "Let's hear it." ”

Sima Yi said: "Zhao Dadu offered a plan, like dealing with Zhang Fei, and used another fire attack. ”

Yuan Shang thought about it when he heard this, shook his head and said: "This season, there is a lot of rain in Yangping, and it is not the best policy to use fire, what if it is extinguished?" Is there any other plan? ”

Gan Ning strode forward and said, "Lord, Lao Tzu thinks that it is best to take Liu Bei's soldiers and horses to attack and set up an ambush on the way!" ”

Yuan Shang shook his head and said: "From Hanzhong to Yangping, although it is rugged, there are still a few roads, it is difficult for us to judge the enemy's route and set up an ambush, what if the enemy does not take our ambush route?" ”

Pound got up and said, "What if it's a trick to surrender?" The last general is willing to surrender. ”

Yuan Shang thought for a while, shook his head again, and said: "You are all my henchmen, I am afraid that Liu Bei will not believe it, even if he believes it, he now has Pang Tong Fa Zheng and other high-ranking people by his side, and it is easy to be seen that there are flaws, this method will not work." ”

“…………”

Seeing that many opinions were refuted by Yuan Shang, Sima Yi stood up and said: "My lord, the scouts from the north of Shicai came to pass the word, saying that Jia Xu captured the Son of Heaven in the battle of Luoyang, defeated his army, and the three auxiliaries were all peaceful, and at this moment the Guanzhong army is rushing to Hanzhong, and I believe that it will arrive in ...... soon."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Yuan Shang get up suddenly, looked at him fixedly, and said, "What you say is true!" ”

"This matter was reported by General Hao Zhao's cronies in person, and Governor Zhao recognized it, and it was categorical! Absolutely true! ”

Yuan Shang was stunned for a long time, then looked up to the sky and smiled, and said: "If the Guanzhong army arrives, the strength and strength of our army will not be under Liu Bei...... That's right, our army is strong, it's good to attack directly, which stupid guy used a strategy? What a stupid! ”

Sima Yi nodded and said, "But before the soldiers and horses rush to support, we still have to have a tough battle with Liu Bei!" ”

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and I will have a good pair with Liu Bei!" ”

A few days later, Liu Bei's army arrived in Yangping, and what was waiting here was Yuan Shang gathering all the Hanzhong soldiers and horses in a comprehensive formation.

The two armies are close to the mountains and rivers, each holding its own interests, countless bows and arrows are looking at each other with their heads aligned, the shouts of killing in the sky resounded in the mountains and fields, and the murderous aura that rushed to the sky soared into the sky, and the momentum was magnificent, which made the wind and clouds change color, and the earth trembled.

Yuan Shang's red robe and silver armor rode out in the support of the shield, threw the sword from afar, and shouted loudly: "Where is Liu Bei, come out and answer me!" ”

In the Shu army array, Liu Bei also came to the front, looking at the familiar young figure in the distance, and there was a little more solemn silence in his eyes.

"Hehe, Yuan Sangongzi, it's been a long time!"

Yuan Shang looked Liu Bei up and down a few times, and said with a light smile: "Xuande Gong, I haven't seen you for a long time, I can't imagine that the county guard who was in Runan and planned with me how to fight against Cao's army has now become a warlord in troubled times who dominates the southwest. ”

Liu Bei laughed when he heard this, nodded and said, "It's not a secret, virtuous nephew, I have to say that Bei also feels that he is too kind now!" (To be continued......)
