Mingyue City declared war on Liu Wen, the assassin of Yangzhou, and also pulled in two powerful helpers, Yuan Shu and Sun Jian, so it can be said that the war in Yangzhou showed a one-sided tendency. On the first day of the battle, the county guard of Wu County chose to surrender Mingyue City, making the battle even more unfavorable to Liu Wen.

However, these are the beginnings, Sun Jian, who sent troops from Changsha, was like a bamboo, and the Jiangdong Tigers showed their unstoppable posture, and they only came to Shouchun City in three days. The main reason for this is that Liu Wen has relatively few defenses in the direction of Changsha, and Sun Jian launched a surprise attack.

On the fifth day of the battle, Nanyang Yuan Shu also came to the outside of Shouchun City. Compared with Sun Jian's aggressiveness, Yuan Shu was indifferent to Xu Yang, if it weren't for the soldiers who came on behalf of Jia, it would even make people think that they were on a spring outing.

On the contrary, Mingyue City, as the initiator of this battle, is now on the way to Shouchun with the three-way army. There is no way, although Mingyue City is in Yangzhou, it is the farthest one from Shouchun, on the other hand, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu, although they are not in Yangzhou, but the two of them are almost next to Shouchun, no wonder the two fought so smoothly.

Due to the gap between the two of them when the Tiger Prison was closed, Yuan Shu's arrival not only did not speed up the progress of the attack on Shouchun, but Sun Jian also deliberately slowed down the pace of the siege, as if "Lao Tzu is defending you as a friendly army".

Regarding Sun Jian's performance, the easiest one is Liu Wen in Shouchun City. At this time, he and Yuan Shu still had such a feeling of intimacy, and secretly thought in their hearts: This Yuan Shu is afraid that he will send troops to respond to the champion Hou in the open, and he will still help me secretly, otherwise if I tell the whole thing to the champion Hou, he Yuan Shu will not have good fruit to eat.

Anyway, on the fifth day of the battle, Shouchun City ushered in a new wave of strange peace.

The three-way army of Mingyue City, with the North Route army led by Huang Zhong as the fastest, took the northern route through Lujiang County and approached Shouchun. The whole Lujiang County because it is far away from Shouchun, more than Xuzhou, the sense of belonging to Liu Wen's assassination history is not strong, at the beginning there were two cities to resist for two days, but when they felt the "great love" from Mingyue City, these county guards followed the example of Wu County and chose to open the city and surrender.

Huang Zhong was naturally very happy to accept this kind of surrender, and it only took thirteen days to fight from Lujiang County to Shouchun along the way. And Guan Yu's Danyang County is relatively strong, and the Danyang elite soldiers are even more famous elites in the Three Kingdoms period, plus Liu Wen has focused on development here before, and has attracted many of his own henchmen, it can be said that Danyang County is the most difficult bone to gnaw.

In addition to his own sweat and blood cavalry, which is a high-level special troop in the troops led by Guan Yu, the other troops have average ability to attack fortifications, and can only rely on large siege equipment to deter the city, and slowly attack the city one by one. This is also why when Huang Zhong reached Shouchun, Guan Yu's attack on the entire Danyang County was only halfway through.

In the end, Gao Chong who took Wu County and went around to Huiji County, united the Scarlet Rose and the player's scattered alliance from the south, and after a total of divisions, the army went south to take Jian'an County, passed through Luling County, and detoured to Yuzhang County, and finally formed a siege of Shouchun. It can be said that among the three road army, Gao Chong's army with the player power is the road with the largest number of people, but it is also the longest road on the route. Even in the original plan, if Huang Zhong and Guan Yu completed the encirclement of Shouchun, then Gao Chong would just go through the motions.

But Xu Yang in Bright Moon City knew that he had to change his strategy now.

"Fengxiao, Ben Hou has decided to end the battle of Yangzhou within a month! Now that half a month has passed since the war, I wonder what your plan is? "Thinking of the fortified city of Shouchun, plus Liu Wen hiding in it is like a turtle shell, Xu Yang is also a big one.

Chen Gong's recruitment task is imminent, there is only half a month left, and now there are only 300,000 Chen soldiers in front of Shouchun City, including some old, weak, sick and disabled. As for the two allies? Sun Jian was able to take advantage of it, but as for Ji Ling, who was sent by Yuan Shu, it was obvious that he couldn't work hard, and he couldn't count on it at all.

Chen Gong let himself end the battle of Yangzhou within a month, which is not just as simple as taking Shouchun! You must know that the major counties in the south of Yangzhou also need time to close, so Xu Yang feels that there is not much time left for him to end the battle of Shouchun, and a week is the time that Xu Yang can accept to break through Shouchun and take Liu Wen. If it takes a little longer, I am afraid that the counties in the south of Yangzhou will be out of their control.

Just when Guo Jia was seriously thinking about countermeasures, a herald hurriedly ran in from outside and reported: "Lord Qiyu, there is an envoy from Wenhou Lu Bu outside the door asking to see you. ”

"Lu Bu's messenger? Can you explain the meaning? Xu Yang frowned and asked confusedly.

To be honest, since Dong Zhuo died, Lu Bu's occupation of Luoyang has been relatively stable, and he has not made any big deals. Xu Yang always felt that this was the system's intention to protect this guy, otherwise according to Lu Bu's urine sex to occupy such a heavy place in Luoyang, how could there be nothing at all. And when he was fighting in Yangzhou, what did this Lu Bu's messenger do?

Guo Jia said with a smile on his face: "Lord, since it is a messenger sent by Lu Bu, then please come in first and listen to what he has to say." If the lord doesn't like it, it's time to rush back......"

"Please Lu Bu's envoy!" Xu Yang didn't call Lu Bu Wenhou, because in his eyes, the only one who shines the most in the big man is now

He is a Hou Ye, and what else is this Hou Ye, that Hou Ye is a cat and a dog Xiao Sun, and he is not a wait in front of him.

After a while, an ordinary-looking middle-aged scribe walked into the lobby, and after reporting his name, Xu Yang and Guo Jia glanced at each other, both of them were not familiar with each other, which meant that he was a nobody, and Xu Yang didn't care too much about the identity of the other party.

"Your envoy came here when Mingyue City was fighting abroad, I don't know what it is?" Since the other party is not a famous person in history, Xu Yang is also relieved. As for saying that the other party concealed his identity? Xu Yang didn't think that anyone could hide so well under the peeping eyes of the Golden Wing Kunpeng.

Oppressed by the official authority of the champion Hou, the envoy obviously wiped the sweat from his forehead, but in the future, Mr. Jia Xu's words were repeated in his mind, and then he spoke: "I came here this time to show favor to the Hou Ye on behalf of my family Wen Hou and seek a way for the two families to form an alliance!" The world has been in turmoil, and only the champion Hou and my family Wen Hou are the real heroes among the princes of the world......"

Listening to the envoy start to tout, Xu Yang interrupted impatiently: "Your envoy has something to say, I don't like to go around the bend." Since it is an alliance, then your envoy should explain how to form an alliance, and against whom the alliance will be formed, and what is the benefit of Yu Hou and Wen Hou? ”

Xu Yang's series of questions made the envoy a little nervous, but when he thought that what he had expected before he left, Mr. Jia Xu's heart felt like he had taken a reassuring pill. Saluted again and said: "Master Hou is quick to talk, so he will say it directly." The alliance between the Hou Ye and the Marquis of Wen can avoid the harassment of other princes during the civil war in Yangzhou, after all, there is Marquis Wen in Luoyang to deter, if the other princes want to reach out to Yangzhou, I am afraid that they must also take into account the halberd in the hands of Marquis Wen. ”

Seeing that the expression of the champion Hou above the first place did not change, the middle-aged scribe continued: "In these two ways, the alliance between Hou Ye and Wen Hou can effectively contain Xuzhou Tao Qian, Chen Liu, Cao Cao and others. Let's not talk about others, just this Chen Liucao Cao is a troubled hero, if the Hou Ye can form an alliance with my Wenhou, my Wenhou will naturally go back to Cao Cao to say something, so that he can stay in Chenliu safely. As for this third, naturally my family Wenhou can also take Chang'an as soon as possible through an alliance and unify the original Xiliang forces......"

Listening to the two benefits that the scribe had just said, Xu Yang was a little unimpressed. But when he heard the third point, Xu Yang's eyes lit up, and he secretly said in his heart: I am afraid that there are masters around this Lu Bu, and he actually knows that he will take advantage of the troubled times to unify the Xiliang forces that he is more familiar with. Moreover, compared with the other princes, Li Dao and Guo Yan are the most familiar to Lu Bu, and they are also the easiest force to overcome.

The reason for this is very simple, both sides turned out to be Dong Zhuo's subordinates. Although Li Dao and Guo Bi inherited most of Dong Zhuo's power, these two people are pus after all, on the other hand, Lu Bu has a very high prestige in the Xiliang army, if Lu Bu leads his troops to attack Chang'an, it will definitely be a huge blow to the morale of the Xiliang army under Li Dao Guo Yan.

However, for Lu Bu, Xu Yang still has some good feelings as a modern person. After all, the name of the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms is not called in vain, although in this era, many people call Lu Bu a slave with the third surname, but Xu Yang believes in one sentence, that is, "not being envied by others is a mediocre talent". If Lu Bu is placed in modern society, he is nothing more than an excellent employee who is dissatisfied with the boss who has changed jobs a little more, Xu Yang feels that if he guides him well, Lu Bu can still take advantage of it.

"Well, then I wonder what price Wen Hou decided to make the alliance between the two families?" Xu Yang continued to ask with a smile on his face.

Guo Jia on the side kept laughing and silent, but Guo Jia, who knew about this matter, was definitely thinking about the envoy's intentions, and even speculated about the purpose of Lu Bu's move.

The messenger who was asked looked embarrassed, and after a pause, he spoke, "Uh...... Wen Hou wanted to invite Hou Ye...... I would like to ask Lord Hou to support our army with 1 million stones of food as military funds for our army to send troops to Chang'an. I don't know about it...... Can Master Hou ......?"

"Bastard!" The angry Xu Yang suddenly slapped his rosewood chair, and a saint-level coercion burst out without reservation, causing the envoy below to turn purple and panting.

"Master Hou...... Please also calm your anger...... The two armies fought, but they were not killed...... Don't cut it......" said the scribe, who was overwhelmed, with the last of his strength.

Guo Jia, who was watching the excitement on the side, stepped forward and said: "Lord, please take a break from the anger of the thunder, Jia has a word and ask the lord to listen carefully." ”

As soon as Guo Jia spoke, Xu Yang immediately withdrew his coercion. The envoy was like being amnestied, only to see Guo Jia glance at himself, and hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Since the Hou Ye has something important to discuss, then I will wait for the Hou Ye's good news outside!" ”

While retreating outward, he thought that Mr. Jia Xu's words had been almost said before he came, and then he cautiously withdrew from the main hall. In fact, this envoy completely followed Jia Xu's words, and said all the good things Jia Xu had explained, but Xu Yang suddenly broke out and made the messenger tremble, even if he withdrew from the main hall, his legs were still trembling.

After the envoy left, Xu Yang completely changed his smile and asked, "Fengxiao, then Lu Bu clearly took advantage of the war in Yangzhou and wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail Ben Hou." Ben Hou just wanted to deter that envoy, and by the way, let Lu Bu also know where my Mingyue City is, but why did you stop me? ”

Guo Jia saluted respectfully, and then said: "Lord, the reason why my subordinates stopped my lord is because I saw this Lu

The intention of the cloth. The lord thought about it carefully, with Lu Bu's person, although he had the courage of a horseman, he definitely didn't have such a mind to formulate such a battle plan, so Jia deduced that this Lu Bu was afraid that there was a high finger behind him! ”

"High-fingered?" Xu Yang nodded, Guo Jia's inference was similar to his own thoughts, and continued, "Then Feng Xiao has a follow-up plan?" ”

Xu Yang also noticed that there was a master behind Lu Bu, so he was afraid that Lu Bu would kick his nose in the face in the future. If he fights a war by himself, he blackmails himself once, then won't he meet an old scoundrel in the future? This kind of problem can't be used to, so there is a scene where Xu Yang deliberately pressures the envoy, but now it seems that this Guo Jia should have his own countermeasures.

"Back to the lord, Jia thinks that we might as well agree to Lu Bu's request at this time. In this way, not only can he paralyze Lu Bu, but also paralyze the other princes around Yangzhou, with Xuzhou Tao Qian and Chen Liucao Cao as the most. Jia felt that once the lord agreed to form an alliance, then Lu Bu would inevitably make a big deal about it, and then the other princes would be afraid of Lu Bu! And Lu Bu can also free up his hands to attack Chang'an, and wait until we take Yangzhou...... So, so ......," Guo Jia said with a smile on his face.

The more Xu Yang listened, the more serious he became, and finally said with a smug smile on his face: "Okay, then let's give Lu Bu these grains!" Let him go to Chang'an first, and then let's drive the tiger and devour the wolf again, so for a second! ”

Facing the praise of his own lord, Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Lord, in the opinion of his subordinates, I am afraid that the master behind this Lu Bu is not easy to deal with." He also came up with this plan to test our reaction, and then play with us! If Jia's expectations are good, this person should have a backup move for this plan, and his subordinates can only see the move, and please be more careful! ”

Xu Yang nodded, and at the same time sighed secretly in his heart: This Lu Bu is really blessed by destiny, even if he digs up Chen Palace, this guy can still find someone who makes Guo Jia praise him so much, it's really good to have an aura!

After a while, Lu Bu's envoy entered the main hall again, and this time Xu Yang's face softened a lot. However, it was Guo Jia who took the lead in speaking: "Your envoy, my lord has agreed to what your envoy said, and the amount of grain and grass requested by Wen Hou will be presented by my lord's guild, and it will be transported from the Yangtze River waterway to Luoyang within ten days, and please go back to Wen Hou first, and the alliance between you and me will be finalized!" ”

The messenger knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and then departed with joy. For this envoy, Xu Yang did not send someone to monitor, but continued to discuss with Guo Jia about the attack on Yangzhou.

For Shouchun's strategy, Xu Yang also knew that it was imminent, and he could only use some extreme methods. But Shouchun is the seat of Yangzhou after all, and although Liu Wen is a little more modest, the forces gathered by the power of a state can only use some special means if they want to take it in a short time.

"Fengxiao, otherwise I will go to this Shouchun in person! Although this is more dangerous, if you don't speed up Shouchun's strategy, I'm afraid you will miss out on Chen Gong! Xu Yang thought for a while, and finally could only say so.

In the face of a fortified city like Shouchun, and Liu Wen has been fully alerted, and there is a troublemaker like Yuan Shu outside Shouchun City, it is unlikely that he wants to sneak attack Shouchun, unless Xu Yang makes a surprise attack through the cheating method of Da Sumeru Mountain. Guo Jia sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then please bring Fengxiao!" Although this move is extremely dangerous, but wealth is in danger, let Jia accompany the lord to go on a journey! ”

Guo Jia was just a strategist, and Xu Yang didn't want to take him with him. Thinking of Guo Jia's special skills, Xu Yang agreed.

So the two of them took the Golden Wing Kunpeng overnight to the camp of Huang Zhong in Shouchun, Huang Zhong led the Xiaoyang Cavalry and the Han Praetorian Guard two special troops, 50,000 each, and 200,000 ordinary eighth-order soldiers, and none of the seventh-order soldiers or anything. This is also determined by Xu Yang's elite soldier policy, all soldiers in Mingyue City can only be regarded as soldiers who can officially go out to fight when they reach the eighth order, and ordinary seventh-order soldiers can only be regarded as city guards to assist in the defense of the city.

When Xu Yang arrived at night, Huang Zhong and Huang Xu were all terrified. After all, Shouchun fought for a few days, and their father and son did not achieve any good results.

"The lord is in Shouchun to supervise the battle, loyal and afraid!" Inside the tent, Huang Zhong said with a guilty face.

Huang Xu on the side was also kneeling on the side in fear, obviously the father and son felt that Xu Yang was here to urge the war.

Xu Yang smiled slightly, and hurriedly helped Huang Zhong's father and son, who were kneeling, and said, "Hansheng, your father and son are doing a good job." It's just that the Shouchun War has a new plan, and this time I came to discuss this matter with your father and son! ”

When Huang Zhong heard this, he put down a lot of stones hanging in his heart. The father and son began to listen carefully to their master's battle plan......

The envoy from Lu Bu's side soon returned to Luoyang, and Lu Bu agreed to his request after hearing that the champion Hou actually agreed to his request after hesitation, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and his face was full of disbelief.

"Wenhe, this ...... You say that this champion Hou's brain can't be broken, right? Even if it's an alliance, how did he agree to our request? Lu Bu asked with a puzzled expression.

Jia Xu, who was in the left-hand position below, also showed a solemn expression, to be honest, he originally hoped that the champion Hou would be able to refuse, but now the situation has become difficult......
