"Primordial."

"Adult 1

Xu You and Chen Lin entered Yuan Shao's big tent, and they all looked around in large quantities, and then focused their eyes on Yuan Shao's face, their hearts were slightly dark, and they were preparing words in their hearts while saluting.

Yuan Shao reluctantly showed a smile, but he knew that he would definitely not be able to hide from these two smart people.

"Hey! Sit down, the two of you are also here for Meng Jindu's business? ”

Chen Lin and Xu You glanced at each other, and Xu You nodded and said:

"Exactly, the two of us were worried that they would be angry and raise troops, so they hurried here."

"Ziyuan is too worried, although this matter is really infuriating, but I am not angry and raise troops, Han Fu will give him a good memory of this account, and one day this account will be settled."

Yuan Shao waved his hand, his expression was a little depressed, but it could be seen from these words that his mind was basically sober.

Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and praised: "My lord can think about this, it is the luck of my subordinates, as the adult said, although Han Fu's actions are hateful, but now is not the time to deal with Han Fu, the big thing in front of him is Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo must be expelled first, and then he can turn back to deal with Han Fu." ”

"What Brother Kong Zhang said is very true, in the beginning, why did our army come to the south? Now that the Jizhou Yellow Turban is repeated, Han Fu is making a mistake again, the more this is the case, the more we can't give up halfway, the enemy doesn't want us to do, we have to do everything possible to do it1

Yuan Shao looked at Xu You, who had a serious expression, and Chen Lin, who looked nervous. Restrained his smile, thought for a moment, nodded vigorously and said: "I understand, I have already decided on the priorities of this, but now Meng Jin may be difficult to succeed for a while, our army's back road is undecided, and Yan Liang is also helpless in Hebei." So, what should we do? ”

"At the beginning, Ao Cang was easy to defend and difficult to attack. As for General Yan Liang, the original intention of capturing Mengjin was to cut off the connection between Dong Zhuojun and Luoyang in Hanoi. Now that General Yan Liang occupies the opposite bank of Mengjin, he has actually achieved his goal, and the only regret is that he did not pose a substantial threat to Luoyang, thus completely defeating Dong Zhuo's layout. ”

Xu You breathed a sigh of relief and slowly solved the current seemingly messy dilemma for Yuan Shao, while Chen Lin listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

Yuan Shao's emotions were also slowly guided by Xu You, and his attention gradually shifted to the analysis of the battle situation and the thinking about the external tactical arrangement, and his anger at the battle of Meng Jindu was unconsciously diluted.

Seeing this, Xu You couldn't help but be secretly proud. finally didn't let Yuan Shao lose his mind angrily, if Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou at this moment, or stormed Puyang, it would really be worth the loss, Yuan Shao went south to the Central Plains this time not to seize the Central Plains territory. Not to compete with Yuan Shu for the position of head of the family, but to establish prestige and establish supreme prestige.

Now that Yuan Shao has successfully obtained the position of the leader of the alliance of the Eighteen Path Princes, if he can lead the Eighteen Road Princes to defeat Dong Zhuo and regain the Son of Heaven, then who else can surpass this merit and prestige. Even if he couldn't get the full success, just recaptured Luoyang and forced Dong Zhuo to retreat to Chang'an, Yuan Shao's reputation as a leader was also confirmed.

And these, far more important than the head of the Yuan family, and a messy Central Plains territory, with this kind of prestige, Yuan Shao is the uncrowned king, is the true inheritor of the reputation of the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, and is the natural leader of the clan group, if you can't even see this, you can't plan, Xu You is also called a master of strategy in vain.

"At the beginning, the situation in Hebei will not change because of this defeat, if Wang Kuang and General Yan Liang are reversed, and gradually capture Huaixian County to eliminate Dong Zhuo's army and Hu Zhen, this will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Dong Zhuo's strategic deployment. In addition, I don't have to worry about the supply problem, I don't forget that there is a businessman here in the Central Plains who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, I think he must be happy to supply us with grain and grass appropriately, does he have money and not make money. ”

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, then twitched the corner of his mouth and suddenly said, "Ziyuan is talking about Fang Zhiwen?" ”

"It is precisely that it is necessary to contain Li Su and Li Ru's troops here at the beginning, first, to make Dong Zhuo's troops more dispersed, so as to create conditions for other troops; Second, Meng Jindu is Dong Zhuo's key point, which can be used to affect Dong Zhuo's entire strategic layout and force Dong Zhuo to shrink his troops, and once Dong Zhuo begins to shrink, it will form a large-scale defeat uncontrollably, and finally he can only abandon Luoyang and retreat to Guanzhong. ”

Xu You's statement is very beautiful, but Yuan Shao and Chen Lin are a little incredulous, even if Dong Zhuo is forced to shrink the strategic defense circle and cling to the fortified city of Luoyang, I am afraid that Yuan Shao will not be able to capture it for a year and a half, how could Dong Zhuo choose to retreat to Guanzhong in a hurry?

"Ziyuan, is this possible?"

Xu You smiled and looked at Chen Lin who was asking, twisted his goatee and said slightly proudly: "Of course this is possible, Dong Zhuo's roots are in Xiliang, so in the face of the surging offensive of the Kwantung clan, he will unconsciously want to move closer to his roots, this is one of them; Moreover, once Dong Zhuo shrinks the defensive circle, he will soon be besieged to death in Luoyang, and there is no grain and grass around Luoyang that can supply Ruo's big Luoyang City, the two of them must not forget how many people are in Luoyang City now; In the end, even if Dong Zhuo had the determination to fight to the death, those Guanzhong clans standing behind Dong Zhuo probably didn't have the idea of being buried with him, right? １

Xu You's words made Yuan Shao feel like he had broken through the clouds, as if the whole sky had become cheerful, that intoxicating blue, that kind of endless silhouette, suddenly made Yuan Shao's body a little lighter.

The person who stands in the overall situation is undoubtedly proud and happy, but unfortunately, Xu You is not a person that Yuan Shao trusts wholeheartedly, Yuan Shao looked at Xu You with admiration and appreciation, as well as jealousy and jealousy.

Chen Lin was sincerely admired, he had no direct conflict of interest with Xu You, Chen Lin's expertise was more biased towards governance and diplomacy, so he would not compete with Xu You for the status of mastermind, but Chen Lin saw the complicated look in Yuan Shao's eyes from the corner of his eyes, and he couldn't help but be slightly vigilant.

Ziyuan's words really made me see the sun like a cloud.1 Yuan Shao sighed and praised it, with a cheerful smile on his face, stroked his beard and said calmly: "The expulsion of Dong Zhuo is the great righteousness, although it is all difficulties, we must move forward bravely, and we can't retreat in half a step, now the situation in Jizhou is repeated, and the Central Plains is even more chaotic, as Ziyuan said, the more this time, the more we need to strengthen our beliefs, who can persist to the end, who will be the ultimate winner." ”

"What he said at the beginning is no different, Dong Zhuo is a guest from afar, without roots and no foundation, so his failure is doomed, it is only a matter of time, the original uphold the righteousness, inherit the sage Yu Yin, the leader of the Central Plains clan, oppose the tyranny of cruelty, save the people from fire and water, this is sure to defeat evil."

Xu You also sent a sycophant appropriately, everything that should be said was said, and the rest was to let Yuan Shao build confidence and stick to the path he set, Dong Zhuo and his ilk could only be a stepping stone for Yuan Shao and himself.

Yuan Shao smiled heartily, and Chen Lin glanced at Xu Yu meaningfully.

"That being the case, order Yan Liang to return to Huai County quickly, be sure to annihilate the enemy in Huai County, transfer Wang Kuang, Zhang Chao, and Bao Xin south to Mengjin to garrison, and order Jizhou Gaogan, Wen Chou and others to hold the city, guard against the Yellow Turban, Kong Zhang, please go to Hangu Pass, discuss with Fang Zhiwen about the supply of grain and grass, you are the one who pays for the goods, in addition, Ziyuan will help me draw up a letter, inform Ding Yuan, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and the road, when I attract Dong Zhuo's troops, they can appropriately increase the intensity of the attack"

"The subordinates obeyed the order1

"Dare not obey your fate, hehe...... Yan Liang received a letter from Yuan Shao, in which he did not blame Yan Liang, but praised Yan Liang's calmness, and then ordered him to go north with his whole army and attack Huai County.

Yan Liang was grateful, and his depressed mood also improved a lot, he was not in a hurry to set off, but first sent the cavalry back to the surrounding area of Huaixian to set up an ambush, and then built a camp on the north bank of Mengjindu, making a posture of fighting a protracted battle and vowing not to give up if Mengjindu was not taken.

After Wang Kuang and others received Yuan Shao's order, they immediately began to organize their army to the south, preparing to take over the camp of Mengjindu and cut off the supply line of Dong Zhuo's army in Hanoi.

Hu Zhen in Huaixian County saw the frequent movement of the defenders outside the city, although the Kwantung Coalition Army tried to create a false appearance to cover it up, but with the cooperation of the stranger, Hu Zhen still discovered the fact that the coalition forces outside the city were decreasing, and then communicated with Li Ru, and found the truth of the matter, Hu Zhen was actually very worried that he had become a lone soldier.

Of course, even if Huaixian becomes an isolated city, it is not a simple matter for the Kwantung coalition army to take Huaixian, not to mention, Hu Zhen's main force is cavalry, if you really want to retreat, the Kwantung coalition army can't stop it, even if Mengjin is lost, Hu Zhen can also go to Hedong to join Guo Yan, it is not a dead end.

Hu Zhen was more concerned about whether he could take advantage of the frequent movements of the enemy army to give the Kwantung coalition army a moment in order to save his situation and reputation for successive defeats, so after confirming the fact that the coalition army had changed defenses, Hu Zhen seized the time difference and went out of the city to attack the camp of the coalition army.

It's a pity that Hu Zhen is still inferior in skills, Yan Liang's cavalry has long been ambushed nearby, and when Hu Zhen attacked the coalition camp and was about to kill the Quartet, Yan Liang's cavalry arrived, and gave Hu Zhen's sneak attack troops a hard blow from the flank, and Hu Zhen who fell into the trap rushed to kill, Hu Zhen should be glad that Yan Liang was not in the army, otherwise Hu Zhen might really be killed directly.

Hu Zhen was defeated, almost fled into the city alone, the Xiliang cavalry in Huaixian County was destroyed, so that Huaixian's defense ability was greatly reduced, Hu Zhen and Wu Kuang were retreating, plus Meng Jindu was cut off, support could not come up at all, the two of them had a feeling of being abandoned alone, and their hearts were even lower.

As a result, the situation in Huai County is critical, and the situation in Hanoi has also become dangerous. ~！
