Everyone marched on the streets of Taiyuan, and Yuan Shao saw that the huge Taiyuan City was showing a desolate atmosphere, and he couldn't help frowning: "How deep is the disaster of the Huns!" ”

Zhang Lang said: "Dad, the current Huns are almost like frightened birds, so I think we should take the opportunity to rush forward, not give the Huns a chance to breathe, and strive to settle the battle in the sheep intestine warehouse." Even if you can't annihilate them in one fell swoop, you have to completely cripple them! ”

Yuan Shao nodded and said with a smile: "My father and several gentlemen also think that they should take the opportunity to rush forward. Since Mai'er thinks the same way, then without further ado, the army will rest in Taiyuan for one night, and march north early tomorrow morning, and the battle will be decided! ”

After the group arrived at the Taishou Mansion in the city, Zhang Lang ordered someone to send the banquet prepared in advance.

Everyone feasted in the hall of the Taishou Mansion and discussed the current war and the situation in the world.

After that, they each went down to rest.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei left the Taishou Mansion and went to the accommodation arranged for them by Zhang Lang. Yuan Shao came, and Taishou Mansion naturally served as Yuan Shao's temporary residence, and the others could only move elsewhere.

Zhang Fei couldn't help but say dissatisfiedly: "That Yuan Shao is really hateful, and he doesn't take the eldest brother in his eyes at all!" Thanks to me, the three of us rescued the fourth son! ”

Guan Yu stroked the long hair under his chin and said with a smile: "Is it difficult for the third brother to save the fourth son, or is it for Yuan Shao's sake?" ”

Zhang Fei glared and shouted, "Yuan Shao, what kind of thing is he!" The Fourth World and the Third Duke are bullshit in my eyes! How could I look at his face! It's only because the fourth son is a hero that I came to the rescue! Isn't the second brother? ”

Guan Yu nodded and said, "That's right." Since the third brother thinks so, why should he be so angry? ”

Zhang Fei slammed his mouth depressedly, and muttered, "I'm just talking!" ”

Guan Yu smiled, looked at Liu Bei, who seemed to be thinking about something, and couldn't help asking: "Big brother, I think what Yuan Shao said is just perfunctory, why should I be blinded here for nothing, it's better to leave here!" ”

Zhang Fei immediately echoed: "Second brother is saying this well! Why do the manly husbands suffer from this bird anger, there is no place to stay here! ”

Liu Bei's attitude towards Yuan Shao was also a little cold, and he thought: "Even if you want to leave, you need to say goodbye to the fourth prince." ”

Guan Yu Zhang Fei nodded, and Guan Yu said, "What the eldest brother said is true." Although Yuan Shao was chilling, the fourth prince treated us with great courtesy, and he also knew how to repay the kindness, and the matter of awarding the eldest brother an official title was mentioned again at the banquet.

He is a man of kindness and righteousness, and we should treat him with courtesy. Otherwise, it would not be the march of the great husband. ”

Zhang Fei said with a puzzled face: "Just now at the banquet, Yuan Shao mentioned the assassination of the fourth prince, and the fourth prince obviously knew that this matter was instigated by Yuan Xi and his mother Liu, but why didn't he say it?" How can such a flood of kindness lead to good results? ”

Liu Bei said with a smile: "The fourth prince is a famous general on the battlefield who is decisive in killing, how can he be full of kindness? Then he said: "The reason why I don't say it is because it's useless, but it may put me in trouble, so I just don't say it." ”

Zhang Fei was surprised, then understood, and nodded heavily: "It's too!" Yuan Shao's kind of goods, I'm afraid he can't uphold justice! ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "It's not because of Yuan Shao, but because this matter is too complicated." Just like the royal dispute between princes and princes, if you are not careful, you will never recover.

Now the Liu clan is favored by Yuan Shao, and I heard that the power behind the Liu clan is very huge, and most of the grain and grass that the army went out this time was raised by it.

Mo said that the fourth prince did not have real evidence, and even if he did, it was unlikely that Yuan Shao would offend the entire Liu family for him, and the impact would be too great. ”

Zhang Fei picked his head and frowned, "I don't understand at all." ”

Liu Bei smiled: "This kind of thing is not something that Yide needs to understand. ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "What the eldest brother said is true. I don't want to think about all this nonsense. ”

The three of them walked towards the front as they spoke, and gradually disappeared into the night.

At this moment, in the study of the Taishou Mansion, Yuan Shao was discussing with Zhang Lang and others about the next big war. The sheep intestine warehouse is a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not easy to win this battle in one fell swoop.

Da Da Da ......! There was a sound of hurried footsteps at the door, and everyone couldn't help but stop discussing and look towards the door. I saw a herald come in quickly, and presented a volume of flying pigeon biography report: "Prime Minister Qi, Luoyang urgent report!" ”

Everyone's hearts moved, Yuan Shao immediately stepped forward to take the book, unfolded it and read it, and said with a slight change in his face: "Cao Cao and Sun Jian are actually evacuating in a hurry!?" ”

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and Zhang Lang asked, "Why did they suddenly withdraw at this time?" Everyone also showed concern.

Yuan Shao looked at the book and frowned: "Not long ago, Liu Biao led the army to attack Jiangdong, and the situation in Jiangdong was critical, and Yuan Shu actually used the pretext of transporting grain and grass as an excuse to exterminate the enemy, and seized several county towns in Cao Cao's hands in one fell swoop, and Yanzhou was in danger.

The two had no choice but to retreat quickly to protect the foundation of the rear.

It's disgusting! After Yuan Shu became famous, he actually did such a thing! And Liu Biao is a member of the royal family, but he has no heart for the country and the people!

He didn't participate in the previous crusade against Dong Zhuo by the princes of the Eighteen Roads, and now he has come to involve us again! It is truly a sin that deserves death! ”

And they cursed.

Xu You said worriedly: "Sun Jian and Cao Cao withdrew, Dong Zhuo is very likely to send troops east to threaten Luoyang, we must collect our troops!" Otherwise, Luoyang will lose, and the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Feng Ji also said: "It seems that the sky is immortal Huns, so there is such a thing!" Now there is no other way than to return to Luoyang. ”

Yuan Shao was depressed, but he felt that this was the only way to do it now, and he was particularly sorry that he could not destroy the Xiongnu in one fell swoop.

Glancing at everyone, he asked, "If the army withdraws, how should we deal with the Huns?" ”

Xu You said: "Although the Right Virtuous King is not dead, he has also suffered heavy losses, and he must not be in trouble again!" The situation in the state will not be too bad in the short term, so there is no need to worry too much. ”

Zhang Lang said to Yuan Shao: "Dad, leave Taiyuan to me." ”

Yuan Xi was taken aback, and shouted without thinking about it: "How can this work?!" ”

Feng Ji also hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates also think that it is better to be cautious in this matter." The fourth prince killed Zhang Yang, and if he stayed in Bingzhou, he was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of other Taishou, but he was afraid that restricting each other would not be conducive to guarding against the Huns. ”

Yuan Shao frowned, looked at Xu You, and asked, "What does Ziyuan think?" ”

Xu You hesitated for a moment and said, "This matter should probably be considered in the long run." He didn't support Zhang Lang.

Yan Liang couldn't help but shouted: "The fourth prince defeated the Huns, and the local people are grateful to Dade, except for the fourth prince, who is qualified to sit in Taiyuan?" As for the publicity, it is clear that the crime of publicity deserves it, how can it be blamed on the fourth son! ”

Rao is Feng Ji, Xu You and others were eloquent, and they couldn't refute Yan Liang's most simple words for a while.

Yuan Shao nodded sympathetically, looked at Zhang Lang and said, "Then the heavy responsibility of garrisoning Taiyuan to guard against the Huns will be handed over to Mai'er!" After I go back, I will ask the Holy Decree to canonize Mai'er as the Marquis of Fenyang Pavilion, and concurrently lead the Taiyuan Taishou, and be in charge of Taiyuan military and political affairs! ”
