"Can Mei Cheng agree?"

"Yan Xiang wants to co-opt him, and I am willing to acquiesce in his existence, such thieves only look at their immediate interests, and they will definitely agree."

"But Chen Duan will definitely not cooperate..."

"Hehe, I don't need his cooperation, I just need to borrow his name and borrow his head."

"I saved..."

Originally, Sun Ce asked Li Shu to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, but now Li Shu used the autonomy of Lixian County and the empty food and salary as bait, and united with Mei Cheng to trap and kill Yan Xiang, the tiger, and planned to frame Sun Quan.

Cao Cao once asked Yan Xiang to raise Sun Quan as Maocai, if the crime of killing Yan Xiang was placed on Sun Quan's head, the court and Jiangdong would immediately turn against each other, and Sun Quan would also be infamous as 'bullying the teacher and destroying the ancestors'.

Li Shu also planned to recover the small forces in the north of the Lujiang River, and if he entered, he would divide the entire Huainan and retreat to the Lujiang River, so he frantically recruited troops during this time.

In addition to the above reasons, Li Shu also had practical considerations for killing Yan Xiang, he had to increase his troops to fight Jiangdong, and Lujiang experienced Sun Ce's sacking last year, and the grain in the county could not feed the huge army, so he could only set his sights on Shouchun Guancang.

Yan Xiang was recommended by Xun Yu to Yangzhou, in order to let him gain the hearts of the people in Huainan, Xun Yu was transferred to relief grain last year.

Including Chen Lan, Mei Cheng, and Li Shu, they all had the idea of Shouchun Guancang.

One of the big cakes that Li Shu painted for Mei Cheng also has grain from the Shouchun official warehouse.

Li Shu and Fu Yu planned for more than a month, and finally led to Yan Xiang in late July.

Fu Yu sent someone to pretend to be Chen Duan's personal follower, and went to Shouchun to say that Li Shu gathered people to oppose Jiangdong, and said that Chen Duan fled to Lixian County to rebel against Haoqiang Meicheng, and wanted to lead the people of Lixian County to surrender to the imperial court, and asked Yan Xiang to lead troops to Lixian County to receive soldiers and civilians.

Due to the lack of his own troops, Yan Xiang mainly Huairou to Mei Cheng, Chen Lan and others in the north of the Lujiang River, so he sent an envoy to Li County to verify, and it turned out that Mei Cheng was sincerely obedient.

Chen Duan's personal report was in front, a messenger went to Qi County to verify that he was behind, and there was a Long Xiang soldier who accepted Jun Yu without blood, and Yan Xiang let down his guard and led 3,000 soldiers to receive it.

Yan Xiang was worried that there would be thieves and bandits on the road, so he requisitioned all the boats to go south, from the river to Shaobi and then into the water, and finally landed in the west of Lixian.

Originally, the journey was smooth and smooth, but after walking a few miles ashore, he just saw the city, and Li Shu's ambush in Lishan suddenly came out.

The west of Lixian County is bordered by the Lishan Mountain, and the mountainous terrain is very easy to set up an ambush, and the 3,000 soldiers of Yan Xiang are almost infantry, and they retreat in the ambush and plan to escape back to the ship, but the ship brought by them has been captured by Mei Cheng.

Yan Xiang is a small number of people with mounts, because they are too conspicuous and are heavily besieged.

Before being captured, Yan Xiang pointed at the enemy formation and scolded: "Chen Duan is a traitor, you have put me in this predicament, and you will not die well." ”

Li Shu wanted to use Yan Xiang's head to plant the scold, so neither Yan Xiang nor Chen Duan, who cursed, lived the summer of the fifth year of Jian'an.

Fu Yu brought 10,000 people from Anhui County to participate in the ambush, and Mei Cheng was worried about the surge in Li Shu's troops, so he discussed with Fu Yu to re-'divide the spoils'.

Mei Cheng planned to take advantage of Yan Xiang's killing to seize Shouchun under the banner of Yan Xiang, and give up the Li County he occupied to Li Shu.

Due to the suddenness of the incident and the fact that Mei Cheng had already seized the ship first, Fu Yu was forced to agree.

Fu Yu led the troops back to Anhui County, Li Shu was furious when he heard that Mei Cheng had changed his hexagram, and scolded loudly: "Mei Cheng's thief nature has not changed, we have worked hard to plan, and in the end we actually married this villain, you should have killed them in the first place." ”

"At that time, Mei Cheng's people had seized the ship, and if they wanted to escape, they couldn't stop it, and Mei Cheng also threatened that if we didn't obey, he would tell Cao Cao and Sun Quan about it, and finally he would throw a rat into a trap..."

Fu Yu looked embarrassed after speaking.

After hearing this, Li Shu's eyes became even more gloomy, and he looked outside the door and said coldly: "This guy wants to swallow Shouchun's money and grain alone, but I'm afraid that his belly is not so big, and he will go to the north to publicize and publicize, Chen Lan, Lei Xu, and Zhang Duo may all go to congratulate..."

"Uh..."

Fu Yu reminded with a hesitant face: "In case Mei Cheng informs Cao Cao and Sun Quan..."

Li Shu snorted coldly: "Even if Mei Cheng doesn't tell the truth, will Sun Quan be willing to admit it?" As for Cao Cao's belief or not, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal for us to return to the imperial court, can Sun Quan return to the imperial court? The most important thing is to splash the dirty water, and the escaped soldiers around Yan Xiang will help him publicize..."

"That Yan Xiang and Chen Duan have two heads..."Fu Yu wanted to speak and stopped.

Li Shu replied with a blank eye: "Yan Xiang's head is dressed in a delicate wooden box, and he will send a fast horse to Xu Du tomorrow, as for the head of the 'culprit' Chen Duan, wait for three or five days before sending it out, and it will take time to arrest the murderer..."

"I can save it." Fu Yu clenched his fists and nodded.

In the same month, hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Hebei crossed the Yellow River, and Yuan Shao led the main force to gather in Yangwu, and the prelude to the Battle of Guandu slowly opened.

Yuan Shao personally supervised the battle on the front line, and the battle effect was far better than that of the partial division.

Hebei soldiers set up camp in sand, the battalion is about dozens of miles wide from east to west, and the northern soldiers went to the Guandu battlefield later, but they were able to take local materials and occupy the initiative on the battlefield condescendingly.

Cao Cao organized attacks many times, but all of them were unfavorable.

Yuan Shao ordered people to build a building turret, piled up soil like a hill height, and the soldiers used arrows to shoot at Cao Ying, but the defenders of Cao Ying could not resist it, and almost wanted to retreat and abandon the position.

At the critical moment, it was Yu Ban who led the troops to the top, and he encouraged the soldiers to stabilize their positions, otherwise Cao Cao would be torn open at the beginning of the battle in Guandu.

Yuan Shao confronted him head-on at the same time, other means did not stop, during which there was good news from his hometown in Runan, Liu Pi of the Yellow Turban Yu Party wanted to raise troops to respond, Yuan Shao was worried that Liu Bi would not be able to succeed, and sent Liu Bei to secretly go south to help the incident.

After that, the two armies of Yuan and Cao continued to make moves back and forth on the Guandu battlefield, thunderbolts, tunnel warfare, camp raids, and attacks on grain roads.

The two families of Yuan and Cao fought fiercely in Guandu, and it was said that battlefield information would be transmitted to various places one after another, but Hefei, where Long Xiang was located, had been cut off from sources of information since the end of July and the beginning of August.

Yangzhou assassin Shi Yan Xiang was booby-trapped, Liukou Meicheng led the army to occupy Shouchun City with his seal, and the fine work sent by Hefei was forced to return.

According to the information sent back by Xizuo, Sun Quan was co-opted by Yuan Shao and instructed Chen Duan to trap Yan Xiang in Yushui, with the aim of occupying Huainan and attacking Cao Cao's rear.

Long Xiang, Lu Su, Liu Ye and others were shocked when they heard it, and Zhang Fei, who was waiting for the news, was even more restless.

I saw him pacing in place with his hands behind his back, shouting at everyone: "It's okay now, Shouchun is occupied by a group of rogues, where will the news of Runan come from in the future?" ”

Liu Ye comforted: "General Yide, don't worry, that Meicheng only has thousands of thieves, and he will not dare to stay in Shouchun for a long time, the Yangzhou assassin appointed by the imperial court is dead, and the imperial court will soon send a new assassin, and the news will naturally recover at that time..."

"Cao Thief and Yuan Shao are fighting in Guandu, how can they have time to send a new assassin to the post? When the Son can't be the Lord today..."

Zhang Fei frowned and shook his head: "In case there is news of the eldest brother, can't I go to help in time?" ”

"No one expected it to be so sudden..."

After Long Xiang comforted Zhang Fei, he looked at Lu Su and Liu Ye puzzledly: "Sun Quan's hand can be stretched long enough, he hasn't even solved the problem of Li Shu, and he still has the heart to calculate Yan Xiang?" Did his soldiers get Shouchun?

"The murderer is definitely not Sun Quan."

Some people died, but not completely......
