It is said that Yuan Shao came with a large army from Yecheng, and along the way, the flag waved, from front to back, countless troops, vast and vast, making people dizzy.

Jizhou, the head of Kyushu, unscrupulously shows the world the prosperity that belongs to Jizhou.

In the world, perhaps only Yanyu and Jizhou can be compared.

Along the way, countless news came to the Han family.

"Yuan Shao led an army of 200,000 from Yecheng!"

"Yuan Shao sent a text, and the Han Dynasty's mandate has been lost.

There is a puppet emperor sitting on the throne, which is set up by the person who killed the king, Liu Xie and the thugs who killed his brother live together in peace, and they are simply unworthy of being a man.

Under the throne stood an unvirtuous minister, who ostensibly wanted to prosper the Han family, but in fact he just coveted the throne of the Han family. ”

The text from Chen Lin made Liu Xie faint in front of the ministers in a straight rage, and spit out a mouthful of blood, this letter will be passed on to future generations, and everyone will remember that he is an emperor who was set up by Dong Zhuo, a person who killed the king, and it is almost stinking for 10,000 years.

Cao Jun camp.

Cao Cao lay on the bed, moaning in pain, he heard the text sent by Yuan Shao, and the head wind that had been repeated became more and more serious.

The crowd hurriedly gathered around.

Cao Cao listened to Yuan Shao's text, and kept hearing the sentence "Cao's prosperity, out of femininity, no merit, suddenly became noble, there was no friendship, and he clinged to the imperial family", his extremely painful head slowly recovered.

"Yuan Shao!"

Cao Cao had never felt so angry, he was really scolded too hard and ugly.

said that Cao Cao's family rose because of the emperor, and it was also because of the use of women.

Cao Cao stumbled to his feet and roared in a deep voice: "This duke has nothing to do, the whole army is ready to fight, and this duke wants to fight to the death with Yuan Shao!" ”

Today's Cao Cao's power is really not small, with complete Yuzhou and Yanzhou, as well as the land in the east of Sizhou, the war and plague ended quickly, and the damage to Yuzhou and Yanzhou was not very large.

Compared with the peak period of the two states, it is naturally inferior, after all, the population of Yuzhou at the peak can be compared with Jizhou.

But the land of these two and a half states still allowed Cao Cao to draw 70,000 soldiers.

If you don't consider the number of cavalry, Cao Cao's strength alone is enough to compete with Yuan Shao, and in this kind of large army, the gap between 70,000 elites and 100,000 elites is not very large.

……

After the head wind dissipated, Cao Cao led the army north, and Xun You sent a message, "My lord, the hussar general Liu Xuande led the army to join our army. ”

Hearing that Liu Bei was coming, Cao Cao personally went out of the camp to greet him.

When the two met, Cao Cao warmly joined Liu Bei, and then asked, "Xuande, I don't know how many troops you brought this time?" ”

Liu Bei's eyes narrowed, and he chuckled: "Prime Minister, Xuzhou is weak, and it only has an army of 100,000." ”

Lakh!

Cao Cao estimated that there should be more than 30,000 soldiers, and with the soldiers stationed in Taishan County, there were nearly 40,000 soldiers.

Liu Bei only has one state!

Liu Xuande was able to recruit so many soldiers in Xuzhou, it seems that the Xuzhou scholars are strong and have helped each other.

If Liu Bei knew what Cao Cao was thinking, he would definitely rise up with deep jealousy, and he could judge the situation in Xuzhou with just one sentence.

Since Chen Deng was completely under Liu Bei's command, the Chen, Mi, Xiao, Han and other Xuzhou clans, coupled with the wealth that Mi Zhen gathered through the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, as well as the blood transfusion of the Yinghou State, the entire Xuzhou almost smashed the pot and sold iron to prepare this army for Liu Bei.

The smile on Cao Cao's face was even more sincere, and he said happily: "Xuande, okay."

This time, you and I joined forces to defeat the pseudo-Zhao and cheer up the Han family, and we fought here. ”

Cao Cao had already begun to think about how to arrange his troops and where to have superior forces to fight Yuan Shao.

Liu Bei felt Cao Cao holding his hand hard, and he churned heavily and smiled, "Yes, cheer up the Han family!" ”

There was a deep meaning hidden in the smile, looking at Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao openly rebelled against the Han family, and Cao Cao, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, didn't look like a loyal minister of the Han family, which was the common opinion of the entire Xuzhou ministers.

Therefore, he united with Cao Cao to attack Yuan Shaogui and attack Yuan Shao, but at the same time, he had to guard against Cao Cao.

In order to prevent defeating Yuan Shao, he completely made a wedding dress for Cao Cao.

This is what Luo Yan said, the interests within the Han family are complicated, and they can't work together, and they are all constraints.

……

Since ancient times, large-scale military combat zones have been fixed, and in the art of war, they are called battlegrounds.

Especially when the army fights, the choice is basically a place with a wide field of vision, a large army can be fully deployed, and convenient transportation can transport grain and grass.

Over the ages, there have been many wars along the Great River.

Every mouth on the river that can be crossed is well known to everyone who knows anything about military affairs.

For example, when King Wu of Zhou invaded the merchants, Mengjin, even if 1,300 years have passed, it is still a battleground for crossing the river, ranking one of the eight passes in Luoyang, and its position is dangerous.

The army of Zhao came from the north, and the only place to attack was Yanjin, Guandu and other places.

This can be known without even intercepting information, because after the Taishou of Hanoi County leaned towards the imperial court, Zhao Guojun had nowhere else to cross the river except Yanjin.

But seeing that the army of Zhao was heavily armoured, the banner of Zhao Zi, which symbolized the country, was raised high.

A strange light suddenly flashed in Cao Cao's eyes.

Liu Bei frowned, and snorted heavily, "Zhao thief!" ”

Since the Yanzi flag, in the world, there is another flag symbolizing the country raised.

Seeing this scene in person, the impact on Cao Cao and Liu Bei was too great.

The big husband should be like this!

The collapse of people's hearts is in the midst of little by little, and Cao Cao's ministers all looked at the Zhao army with bated breath.

Suddenly, a young general rushed out from in front of Zhao Guo's formation, and said loudly: "Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, Hussar General of the Han Dynasty."

The king wants to invite the two nobles to drink in front of the battle, I wonder if the two dare to come? ”

Drinking before the battle?

This kind of atmosphere was often seen in the ancient state week, but later the war-seeking faction developed, and the soldiers did not tire of deceit, and this kind of thing gradually became less.

Since the Taiping Army Rebellion, this kind of thing has not happened much, especially in the battle of life and death, and there are very few people who drink alcohol before the battle.

It's more of the kind of scolding war between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, and the main thing is to suppress the morale of the other party.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei glanced at each other and said loudly in unison: "Why don't you dare?" ”

Yuan Shao was opposite the two, and the psychological pressure was still quite large.

After all, the main force is in Luo Yan's place, and it is making a detour here.

He led only 40,000 soldiers, and if he really wanted to fight, he could only retreat, and he couldn't fight normally.

The soldiers quickly laid out the matcloths for the nobles to go out to play, and Cao Liu and Yuan Shao finally met again.

As soon as they saw Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's first reaction was that Yuan Shao was much older than back then.

Cao Cao snorted coldly and said, "Yuan Shao, you sent out that document, and you even dared to invite your father-in-law to come and drink, aren't you worried that your father-in-law will kill you in anger?" ”

Yuan Shao smiled and waved his hand, completely ignoring Cao Cao's death threat, and said with emotion: "Meng De, Xuande, please take a seat."

Drink before the battle, and you don't have to talk about those unhappy things.

More than ten years ago, during the Taiping Army Rebellion, we responded to Emperor Ling's Qinwang Order, and we were in our prime.

We waited for the blood alliance, were high-spirited, and scolded Fang Xuan as if the world was not in our eyes.

Now more than ten years have passed, and the princes of King Qin of that year have died or left, and only a few of us are left, and today they are fighting here.

Is this providence? ”

Cao Cao and Liu Bei knelt down and sat down, and were a little substituted by the sigh in Yuan Shao's mouth, Cao Cao asked in a deep voice: "Originally, why did you betray the Han?" ”

Yuan Shao was stirred by the word rebellion, and said proudly: "Thirteen years ago, Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, and he led the army to Luoyang before the strength of the widow was restored.

In the end, he assisted the Wushuang Zhongwu Marquis to kill Dong Zhuo.

In the past, the princes of the world, in addition to the unparalleled loyal and martial marquis, added you Cao Mengde, who dared to say a word in front of the widows, the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty!

The widow didn't recognize Liu Xie, because he was mean and unkind, had no imperial demeanor, didn't say anything about resisting Li Dao Guo Yan, and didn't even dare to say a word of justice.

To call him a waste is to insult the waste.

The widow is the king of Youzhou and the Great Yan Emperor, which is difficult to say, and the widow does not say it, so as not to think that the world will only complain.

The widow was ready to calm the world, and then in front of the filial piety emperor, he asked the emperor to put on the crown of the Son of Heaven for the widow, but the matter has come to this point, and the widow does not regret it.

The position of the world, the virtuous live in it, this is what the emperor said.

The Han family lost the mandate of heaven, and the emperor had no virtue, so why should he be taken by a widow. ”

Liu Bei couldn't bear it anymore, and said sharply: "Yuan Benchu, you are arrogant, the Great Han Heavenly Destiny is brilliant, and when you are being reborn, how can you lose it!" ”

Yuan Shao recalled the chat with Luo Shu and Luo Yan about Liu Bei, his eyes rolled, and he decided to fool Liu Bei and hit Liu Bei.

So he immediately smiled and said, "Xuande is not in a hurry."

Everyone in the world knows that you want to re-follow the path of Emperor Guangwu, and you want to let Liu Xie's position be given to you after the world is calmed, don't be in a hurry to deny it.

But the Bang Zhou, who was born as the emperor of Suwang in the human body, only prospered three times, how could the Han Dynasty prosper again and be ordered again?

Luo's has always obeyed the orders of heaven, and they may not be sure who the mandate of heaven will fall on, but it may be seen that the mandate of heaven does not fall on whom.

Xuande.

Look at your subordinates, in addition to Yinghou and the eldest son of Yinghou, who will advance and retreat with the Han Dynasty, which Luo's son has served you?

What does this mean?

Maybe it means that Rock's thinks you can't be ordered again.

You want to let Liu Xiechan give you the position, according to the widow, it is more likely that Liu Xie's position will be given to Meng De.

Of course, this is all a widow's speculation, and Meng De and Xuande don't have to care too much.

When we drink again, it is to talk about the old relationship, and then life and death will face each other, and then talk about the future, and now drinking is the right thing. ”

Drinking?

Drink a fart!

Liu Bei wanted to burst into foul language, but Cao Cao directly burst out foul language.

The two of them really never expected that Yuan Shao hadn't seen each other for so many years, and he would speak so annoyingly.

He didn't say anything vulgar, but he was weird and uncomfortable, and he turned out to be like he was fine.

Yuan Shao was originally in a somewhat unhappy mood, but after seeing Cao Cao and Liu Bei breaking the defense one after another, he suddenly felt that he was in a better mood.

He also smiled and said, "Why did Meng De say such vulgar words?

Zen is a virtue of the ancient holy kings, whether it is a king who is willing to take the throne or a king who accepts the throne.

Yao Shunyu!

Who is not a famous holy king?

Could it be that Mende wanted to be a courtier like King Loewen?

The widow is going to be in awe of Meng De. ”

It's this familiar yin and yang weirdness again, of course Cao Cao can't say that he wants to be the king of Luowen, because he originally wanted to be the emperor.

Yuan Shao's words pierced his heart, which made Cao Cao feel very unhappy.

Although the conversation that is happening here now, no one will know.

But Cao Cao still saved his dignity and said: "The Qing is self-purifying, I, Cao Cao, support the royal family, treat the emperor respectfully, and the history books will give me the most fair evaluation." ”

Yuan Shao suddenly felt really cool like this, he was already a naked anti-Han, and now he was stimulating Cao Cao.

You obviously want to do this, but you pretend to be a loyal minister, whether you are tired or not, you might as well fight against Han with me.

is also stimulating Liu Bei, look at this ally next to you, he is the same person as me.

Can you really unite with him?

Liu Bei took a deep breath and said: "The prime minister is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, if there is no prime minister, Yuan Shu, a rebellious person, I am afraid that no one will calm down, and Your Majesty may have suffered an accident long ago."

The Yuan family, the fourth and third dukes, is really outrageous to show this rebellious generation. ”

If Liu Bei had said these words before, Yuan Shao would have been extremely angry, but now Yuan Shao just drank the wine in his cup.

Then he poured another glass of wine, held it flat in front of the two, and said with a smile: "A glass of wine before the battle, the friendship of the former comrades, once severed, from here, we are enemies of life and death."

Alas.

The three of us are not willing to be subservient, we will not stop if we don't see life and death, drink this glass of wine, and say goodbye. ”

Cao Liu and the others were silent, each raised the wine, the three of them drank it all, and stood up one after another, Cao Cao wore the dark robe of a civil official, and Liu Bei wore the crimson robe of a military attaché, indescribably romantic.

Yuan Shao waved the sleeves of his robe, he was wearing the robes of the princes and kings, solemn and majestic.

The three of them walked back without looking back.

The fierce wind blew the corners of the three people's clothes, and the patterns on the robes seemed to come to life as they fled.

……

As soon as the three of them returned to the formation, Cao Cao and Liu Bei heard the sound of dong dong.

Then there was a slight tremor of the earth.

This is the movement of a large number of cavalry marches!

Who has a large number of cavalry in the world today?

Western Regions, Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Youzhou, Yanguo!

Who will be here?

Naturally, after defeating Gongsun Zhan, he joined the Youzhou Iron Cavalry under Yuan Shao!

Cao Cao and Liu Bei both had horror in their eyes, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Enemy attack!

Get ready for battle!

Drumming!

Array! ”

The emperor tasted and said: "Cao Mengde's heart, known to the world, is still cunning and disguised, and its sincerity is not as good as Yuan's original, and I don't like it." —— "Ji Hanshu Xuanlie Benji"
