Barrack.

By noon, Xu Zhen and Zhao Yun had just returned, and the camp was lively again.

Whether it is those who cut wood in the mountains and forests to collect materials, those who seek iron ore in the mountains, and those who build trestle bridges by the river to facilitate chariots and soldiers and horses.

In the battalion, they get up early to patrol and train new soldiers.

Dian Wei is recruiting.

Everyone is doing their job, even if Xu Zhen is not in the camp, the entire Xu camp is also in full swing.

Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang and Cao Ang were checking the military situation in various places in the main account.

Xu Zhen dismounted and went to the camp and handed over the reins to the army guards.

[You ride a horse for an hour in the morning, self-discipline +20]

[Equestrian Mastery +0.3%]

Good.

There was actually a slight harvest.

It seems that as long as you are not in a daze, you can get self-discipline points by doing something when you should be doing something.

As long as it's something that improves yourself.

It's all self-discipline.

Xu Zhen has a layer of enlightenment, and at the same time, he likes this system with wide rules more and more.

He walked briskly to the camp and lifted the door curtain, Jia Xu immediately stood up with a surprised face, "Junhou! You set off in the early hours of last night? ”

"Why don't you call me?"

Xu Zhen said very simply: "I'm too lazy to call you, I can't sleep." ”

"It just so happened that Zilong accompanied me, so I went directly, there is nothing unsafe on the road, Zilong's martial arts are already strong, and he is not under Dian Wei and Xu Chu."

That's dangerous, too.

Cao Ang thought to himself.

immediately got up and asked Xu Zhen to come to the throne and tell all the information he received this morning.

"Father has forced Lu Bu to Guangling, he can't take Xiapi, and at this time he is surrounded by three soldiers and horses in Guangling."

"It is estimated that he wants to retreat to Yuan Shu, which is the only way to live, but when Lu Bu was using troops, most of the soldiers and horses that attacked Xuzhou first were mainly Yuan Shu's army."

"In the past few days, Liu Bei has designed ambushes one after another, so Lu Bu has suffered heavy losses and retreated."

"The grain and grass promised in Yuan's postoperative support were not given to Lu Bu, and there must be a gap between the two."

There is not enough food and grass!

Xu Zhen thought of this for the first time.

Shouchun has increased the number of soldiers and horses in recent years, all of which rely on the fish and shrimp in the river, although the fishery of the people has been improved, but it is invisibly more dependent on grain and grass.

This year, a lot of grain happened to be stored, but Yuan Shu misjudged the timing and said that the emperor was attacked by a group, and this grain and grass may not be enough to deal with the year-long front.

"He's out of food."

Xu Zhen immediately said, "This battle should be fought a little longer, and it can't end so quickly." ”

"Write to your lord at once!" Xu Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "This year, we should use grain and grass to continue to eat away gradually, and we should not force Lu Bu to be too tight." ”

"Lu Bu and Yuan Shu are suspicious of each other, and Lu Bu's troops were mainly based on Yuan Shu's army, so Yuan Jun's losses were huge."

"And the elite of Lu Bu's headquarters can retreat to Guangling and give up the land of Qiaojun, the only one who lacks food."

"In this way, slowly Tuzhi, you can let Lu and Yuan fight each other, if you rush to march and attack, you may drive the dog into the poor alley, but let Lu Bu and Yuan Shu unite."

"Yes, seconded below." Jia Xu also nodded to Cao Ang.

Xu Zhen's reaction to analyzing the military situation is really extremely fast, and a military situation can immediately see the situation on the battlefield.

Jia Xu thought so, and even felt that Xu Zhen seemed to be about to catch up with him.

"And when I write this letter, I will make it clear to the lord that it is my plan, and if it is wrong, Dian Wei will bear it."

Xu Zhen swore an oath.

Cao Ang nodded, "I will explain this matter to my father, and ...... Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses traveled through Runan and went south to Huainan, where they met Ji Ling, the general of Yuan Shu, at the border, and it is said that he raided his army, killing more than 3,000 people, and then was repulsed. ”

"But because of this, there is news that Ji Ling should be the rescue envoy of Yuan Shu's army, leading the cavalry to rescue in the Seven Roads."

"And the general, it should be Liu Xun or Yuan Lian."

Xu Zhen touched his chin and thought: "These two are both thieves, and they are more than fierce in leading the troops, but they are not enough to be afraid. ”

"The third thing is that Yang Feng and Han Xian were defeated by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead, and they may die in the chaos, but they didn't find their bodies, but almost all of their soldiers and horses were accepted by Liu Bei."

"The fourth thing is that Yuan Shu or sacrifice to the sky, announce the country name Zhongjia, set the capital Shouchun, and prepare to gather the soldiers and horses and return."

"Fifth, this morning, Sun Ce drove a warship into Huainan, attacked its ferry and fought, captured the warship, killed Yuan's army, declared war on Yuan Shu, and made achievements."

"Brother, now that the generals under my father's command are enthusiastic, sacrificing their lives and forgetting death, they all want to rush to the ground, and they all want to make contributions, what do you think?"

Cao Ang's face was quite heroic, and he stood up at this time, standing up straight, and it seemed that he really wanted to go bravely.

Indeed, in the current situation, Yuan Shu really looks like an unprecedented prey.

Whoever can win it will be the most famous and majestic of the many hunters.

Who can refuse such a top prize?

Xu Zhen pondered for a long time, until everyone stopped bothering him, the expression on his face was retracted, and he looked at him very seriously.

Only then did he slowly speak, "Kill Yuan Shu." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, if you are in a hurry, the more difficult it will be to get past the rest of the generals and get merit alone."

"We are in Lujiang, on the side of Yuan Shu's couch, as the so-called, how can others sleep soundly in the couch? Yes, Lujiang and Yuan Shu will definitely raise troops to attack, and they should wait for the attack for a long time, wait for work at ease, and then counterattack, chase in the plains, and kill the enemy as much as possible with the advantage of cavalry. ”

"In this way, Yuan Shu has been defeated many times, and the morale of the natural army has collapsed, and at that time, the rumors we have spread before can really play a role and gradually advance."

"As for the great merit of taking Shouchun and destroying rebellion, I can guarantee that it must be yours."

Xu Zhen said firmly.

And this look is very sincere, and this sentence also makes Cao Ang's heart very calm.

If that's the case, I'm not with the wrong person!

Cao Ang's heart was moved, and even his nose was sour, and his eyes were slightly red.

There are some things that no one in this world may know at all.

Everyone has secrets, and Cao Ang is no exception.

Sometimes these secrets would make him feel panicked in his heart, although he was the eldest son, but every time Cao Cao would let him teach his younger brother.

Many of his younger brothers are very intelligent, and he brought Cao Pi in the first year, and he already showed a very mature precocious wisdom when he was a child.

After that, Cao Cao said many times that he was the eldest son, and he would definitely be the crown of all the heirs in the future.

Cao Ang was happy for a few years, and he wanted to help bring Cao Zhi again, just because of that sentence The crown of the heir.

Cao Zhi also showed a talent that Cao Ang did not have - literary talent!

At a young age, he already has a precocious sense of poetry and sentimentality. And he is well-read, behaves perversely, and his thoughts are also very out-of-the-box, and the questions he asks make Cao Ang feel strange.

Now he's only six years old, almost seven.

It can already be used as a poem.

is the most in the style of his father.

And what about yourself?

Every time Cao Cao was outside, he would say that Zi Xuan was a benevolent, righteous and filial person, and at home, he would say that he would pass everything on to Zi Xuan in the future.

But in fact, the master was chosen for the brothers.

The closest to his age is Xu Bowen, who is also a teacher and friend.

The rest of the younger brothers ended up choosing differently.

Cao Pi is Xun Wenruo's frequent teaching, and Cao Zhi is taught by himself to learn literature and literacy, his father personally teaches poetry and literature, and there are countless Confucians who change their teachings and are pampered.

made Cao Ang feel uneasy.

This uneasiness is innate, as if innate...... It is also indelible from the bloodline, suspicious.

He suspected that these brothers might still have some ability to have different hearts in the future, thinking that the elder brother was useless and could not be the crown of a hundred officials.

Although there is only a trace of this kind of thought, and it is buried in the depths of Cao Ang's heart.

But after all, he is still very eager to achieve great things because of this.

And this time, if Yuan Shu, a deer, can be killed, this merit and fame will suppress everything.

"Thank you, brother!!" Cao Ang was solemn, his face trembled with excitement, his hands clasped together, and he bowed to the end.

The emotion brought by Xu Zhen's words is probably only clear to Cao Ang himself.

"You really want to thank you?" Xu Zhen was suddenly excited, his eyebrows fluttered, he helped him up, and said quickly: "If you really want to thank you, you don't have to wait for the future, you can do it now!" ”

Cao Ang chuckled in his heart, and the feeling seemed to be strangled to death by a hand reaching into his heart, and he was slapped back by the way.

"Brother, what do you want?" Cao Ang asked with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

"Uh......" Xu Zhen immediately scratched his head, very embarrassed.

I can't ask for it, otherwise I won't be able to do that. Officials should be honest and honest, and should not pretend to be public or coercive.

Be humble and not envy glory and profit, and although the things you get are not glorious, they must appear clean and calm.

He was speechless for a moment, and suddenly sighed: "I'm ashamed to say it." ”

"Today, I went to find a teacher and visit friends, I thought I met a hermit and a minister, but I didn't expect it to be a member of the Lujiang Shi clan, and the family should be very rich, and I want to marry my two daughters."

"It's a pity, alas, that the marriage always has to be a dowry."

Jia Xu pulled his beard, good guy, he didn't even plan to give a dowry himself.

Cao Ang took a deep breath.

Got it.

"Brother is a dignified prince, why should you have such concerns, Zi Yu will go to the next office for his brother!! Accept these two daughters. ”

"Thank you so much!!"

Xu Zhen nodded, making Jia Xu's face full of surprise.

Soon.

Blame had to ask me to go, I secretly ran to take in the two of them, so like this is also a way to get out.

At least the eldest prince and the lord can use this method to do what they like, so they have changed their favors for so many years.

After all, if the favor is not enough, it is to cut people.

Jia Xu frowned slightly, and sat on the futon a little abruptly.

Could it be ...... The prince has always intended to defile himself by liking women, so that the Cao family can know his hobbies, so that he can practice various industries at home, and he will not be guarded?

Moreover, in the future, the daughter of the Cao family will marry as a wife, and she can dominate her backyard, so she will naturally be preserved?

Then he came south to Lujiang, in addition to attacking Yuan Shu, he couldn't really just do it for a pair of concubines, right?

Impossible, the old and decrepit monarch can never be this kind of person!

There must be a profound truth.

Jia Xu squinted slightly, and his thoughts continued to diverge, but no matter how quickly he thought, diverged and thought, and sorted out the context.

I think it's for this sister......

If that's the case.

For one or two women, they often crossed thousands of miles to the south...... I am afraid that there is no second person in the world except Xu Bowen.

How can anyone have such pride!

However, if you look at the results, it does occupy an excellent strategic terrain and win the hearts of the people of Nanxiang.

Spread fame beyond the banks of the Yellow River.

This...... What does this say?

This move is also very good.

And I'm afraid that such a strategy can only be done by the prince.

Because there will be no second Dian Wei in the world who goes crazy and wants to repay the favor.

Hey, weird......

……

Shou Chun.

"A few people!! Now dare to occupy my Lujiang!? ”

"It's this Xu Bowen again!"

After Yuan Shu received the military information, he was furious as soon as he read it, and threw the book down the stone steps of the main hall.

Then he immediately looked at the servant girl on the side, "Go pick it up!" ”

The maid trembled forward, picked up the book and presented it in front of Yuan Shu.

He took another look, and immediately kicked the case over.

"Sun Ce is against me, and Lu Bu is against me! These shameless villains! ”

"This Xu Bowen is taking advantage of the void, how can he be called a hero!?"

Yuan Shu's face was terrifyingly gloomy.

At this time, he scolded and his mouth was dry, and asked the maidservant to take a sip of the remaining honey water that was scattered on the ground.

He immediately glanced down and asked, "Do you have a plan to defend against the enemy?" Is there a plan to take down the Lujiang River for me, to extinguish Xu Bowen's arrogance, it is best to capture this thief alive, so that I can peel his skin and pull his tendons and chew his bones raw! ”

"My lord."

At this time, a man came out from among the ministers, with a proud expression, his long white hair hanging down in front of him, and he did not wear a crown.

This person has a broad figure, wide eyes and a wide nose, and a slight markings on his face, which makes him look haggard, but in fact he is not old.

Yuan Shu glanced at it, and felt angry again, and said with some contempt: "What does Yan Jun have to say?" ”

"Now that the great cause has risen, why is it not called the son of heaven of the Zhong family?"

"Why are you still called the lord?"

The advisor standing under His Royal Highness was the master who followed Yuan Shu when he first arrived in Jiujiang, named Yan Xiang.

Later, he was Yuan Shu's confidant, but when the hundred officials entered the position of arrogance of the Son of Heaven, Yan Xiang swore to oppose it and was unwilling to speak with him.

So of course, the founding number of the country, when he placed a hundred officials, he did not have his official position.

So now Yan Xiang is still the main book, but I don't know whose master it is, and Yuan Shu is not used to him, if you don't approve of me, I won't be an official.

Yan Xiang is not used to Yuan Shu, if you don't become an official, I will chase after the palace to speak.

After all, he still remembered in his heart the kindness of Yuan Shu when he invited him out of the mountain, and those who value love and righteousness will not leave easily, and the stubbornness in his heart makes it impossible for him to sit idly by.

Immediately hugged his fists and said: "If the lord wants to hold it for a long time, he should withdraw his soldiers and horses at this time, defend it in Huainan territory, and let Lu Bu fight Cao Cao." ”

"And the main soldiers and horses can attack Xu Zhen with all their might."

"Lujiang and Jiujiang are the most important."

"Marching like this, although he also had a grudge with Lu Bu and let him go, he was a repeated villain, and he had a grudge against Cao Cao, how could Cao Cao not kill him! The lord should not have taken him in at the beginning, and at this time, he should have been interrupted, and he would have suffered from it. ”

"I'm working hard! Shelu Bu resisted Cao, and our army rejected Sun Ce in the south and attacked Xu Zhen in the east, and it will be effective in less than a month. ”

"As long as the soldiers and horses are sluggish and the soldiers are dull, the Cao army can retreat, and if the Jizhou soldiers and horses return next year, the victory or defeat will not be known."

Except for him, no one in the palace said anything, but he said a few words, and the situation was very clear.

Although he was reluctant to ask Yuan Shao for help, the situation was very beautiful.

When Yuan Shao came back from fighting Youzhou, how could Cao Cao dare to attack Huainan with all his might?!

At that time, even if the Yuan clan did not join forces, with a little tacit understanding, they could destroy Cao Cao first, and then fight for the world.

Yuan Shu listened to Yan Xiang's words, and his heart was still useful, and his face was already much lighter at this time.

Yan Jun is really still facing me.

"Haha, good!" Yuan Shu's wrinkled face moved, his sharp eyes looked at Yan Xiang, and the person slowly leaned back on the seat and moved comfortably.

Then he said: "Yan Jun has a good plan, since this is the case, how about calling me Your Majesty now?" ”

"Humph!" Yan Xiang snorted coldly, "Don't force each other, lord!" ”

"Tsk, fork out!"

Yuan Shu's complexion suddenly changed greatly, and he was still disobedient! Still disobedient!!
