Liu Bei's words are right, according to Cao Cao's strategy, Cao Ren is guarding Wancheng, the generals and the west of Runan, Xiahou Yuan returned to Yingchuan Yangzhai, and is displayed in the east of Runan.

If Cao Cao arranged this kind of layout, it was completely unconscious and purposeless, but I am afraid that even a fool would not believe it, let alone the monkey spirit among people like Liu Bei.

Cao Cao is really going to make a move on Runan County!

In this way, it is no wonder that Liu Bei solemnly invited Yuan Shang to the back garden.

After all, the war is urgent, Liu Bei must be cautious, a little preparation is not good, losing land and trapping the city is secondary, and it is difficult to protect his life is the top priority.

Of course, Liu Bei still doesn't know that Xiahou Yuan will return to Yingchuan, and most of the reason is still Yuan Shang.

If it weren't for Yuan Shang's mischievous mischief, how could he lead Xiahou Yuan back to Yingchuan to guard it?

If Liu Bei knew the truth, I don't know if he would cut him with a knife?

.....................

There was silence between the two for a long time, and when they were young, they saw Yuan Shang's eyes fixed, and said softly: "Xuande Gong, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren joining forces together is a sign of Cao Cao's move on Runan, this matter, I'm afraid it has long been expected by Xuande Gong, right?" ”

Liu Bei's vague and sharp eyes couldn't help flashing when he heard this, and he touched his beard and chuckled: "Virtuous nephew, don't you understand what you hear?" I would like to hear about it. ”

Yuan Shang smiled indifferently, turned around and leaned against the bridge, rubbed his nails, looked at the starry night sky, and said: "Ming people don't say dark words, since I am honest, why should Xuande Gong pretend to be confused?" As everyone knows, Xuande Gong and Cao Cao have different hatreds from Dai Tian, and they are ruthless in skinning their flesh and skin, and Xuande Gong wants to swallow Cao Cao alive all the time for the sake of the Han family, and Cao Cao can't pinch you to death day and night because of the edict of the clothes, don't look at the current Cao Cao is mainly fighting with the Hebei army, but if you talk about hatred! I'm afraid that it will be more than a hundred times more for you than for our army, right? ”

Liu Bei's face remained unchanged when he heard this, neither admitting nor denying it, and said indifferently: "Cao Cao hates me or not, I don't know much....... According to Childe's intentions, for the current situation? How should the preparation be? ”

Yuan Shang finished grinding his nails, blew lightly, and said with a smile: "Xuande Gong's words are to the point, in fact, this is also the purpose of my father's order to come here!" This time, I led Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran to come, obviously to disturb Cao Cao's rear, but in fact, it was to help Xuande Gong sit firmly in the land of Ying, and unify the entire territory of Yuzhou! After all, the enemy of our two armies is Cao Cao, and Xuande Gong also stayed in Hebei for a while, and he is an old friend of my father. ”

Liu Bei was silent, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he said slowly: "So, the virtuous nephew came here with troops this time, specifically to help me on my father's orders?" If so, do you really have to thank you? ”

Yuan Shang shook his head and said with a smile: "I can't help it, at most it's auxiliary, yes, auxiliary!" It's just to help you fight, besides, if Xuande Gong wants to defeat Cao Ren and the others, all of them are based on the land of Ruying, and the troops and generals are indeed slightly insufficient, right? Isn't it a great help for you that I'm here this time? ”

Liu Bei was silent for a while when he heard this, and then suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, shaking his head while laughing: "The virtuous nephew can speak well, and his tongue is as bright as a flower, which is really admirable, yes, what you said is very reasonable, and it is also very in line with the current situation. ”

Yuan Shang's smile remained unchanged, and he said modestly: "Where is the problem, please ask Xuande Gong to correct it?" ”

Liu Bei touched his beard and said indifferently: "What the virtuous nephew said, ten out of ten, can be said to be nine points true and one point false, but it is this point of leave, but it is your purpose to cover up the past, you just said that you came this time to be ordered by Lingzun to help our army occupy the entire territory of Yuzhou, but in order to prepare for it, in fact, it is the opposite, the virtuous nephew entered the hinterland of the Central Plains this time, and it is difficult to return to Hebei, so I think of our army, I want to encourage our army to go north to attack Cao, and take advantage of the chaos to fight for you to return to Hebei, this is the real purpose of your come, hehe, Bei has to admire the eloquence of the virtuous nephew, it should have been my army to help you, why did the words come to your mouth and turn it upside down? ”

Yuan Shang raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Bei quietly.

Liu Bei smiled at the corner of his mouth and met Yuan Shang's gaze.

The two of them just looked at each other, their eyes in the air like fiery sparks, and neither of them would back down half a step.

It wasn't until a while later that Fang saw Yuan Shang retract his gaze, lowered his head embarrassedly, and said shyly: "Don't look at me so adoringly, I'll be shy." ”

Liu Bei's smile suddenly stiffened again.

This bastard boy........

After a while, Liu Bei spoke: "Virtuous nephew, you should tell me now, who are we helping whom?" ”

Yuan Shang touched his head, and a smile appeared on his handsome face: "Xuande Gong and I have our own opinions, continue to talk, I'm afraid that even tomorrow morning, we won't be able to talk about a result, and the positions are different, and the direction of looking at the problem is naturally different......"

Liu Bei nodded when he heard this: "This is true. ”

Yuan Shang continued: "In the next degree, since you and I are allies now, it doesn't matter who helps or doesn't help anyone, why make such trouble for a little thing, in a word, work together to defeat Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren, you take what you need, I take what I want, isn't it simple?" ”

Liu Bei laughed when he heard this, and looked up to the sky and smiled: "Good, good!" You take what you need, I take what I think, and the words of the virtuous nephew are honest and do not deceive me! Let's send troops together, unanimously against Cao, and take what we want, this is called ......"

Yuan Shang smiled and said, "Together." ”

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Liu Bei suddenly coughed when he heard this, and his face turned red in an instant.

Complicity? How can anyone describe themselves like that.

"The word virtuous nephew is used...... It's a little inappropriate.,Beishen doesn't think so.。 ”

Yuan Shang was curious: "Then what does Xuande Gong think we are?" ”

"Kuang Fu Han Room, clean up the universe! That's right, clean up the universe! This is the gist of the cooperation between our two militaries. Liu Bei corrected Yuan Shang's mistake very seriously.

"Well, since you're happy to hear that, then I'll call it that, and I don't care about the face." Yuan Shang shrugged his shoulders very casually.

Liu Bei is not very happy, how can it be called indifferent when it comes to face, how can he give birth to such a good face with his father?

This kid really doesn't look like his father.

"Since the matter of sending troops has been decided, then Bei will start to rectify the troops and horses on the same day, taking advantage of the fact that Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan have not yet made any moves, let's attack and kill first, take the lead, and after Cao Cao returns to the division, we will have the power to fight!"

Yuan Shang Zhengse arched his hand and said: "Xuande Gong is an uncle, and he naturally obeys all the orders he makes. ”

Liu Bei nodded when he heard this, and said: "However, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren are stationed in Wancheng and Yingchuan respectively, and they are each other's horns. In the opinion of the virtuous nephew, should we take Cao Ren first, or attack Xiahou Yuan first? ”

When Yuan Shang heard this, he lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and said: "Xuande Gong, in my opinion, Cao Ren has been in battle for a long time, is the best at sticking to it, and is the first general of the Cao clan..... On the other hand, although Xiahou Yuan is also a strong general and can fight through battles, he has a violent temper and his personality weaknesses are still relatively obvious. ”

Liu Bei nodded when he heard this, and said: "The words of the virtuous nephew are deep and prepared, but Xiahou Yuan guards Yingchuan, and the soldiers are strong and brave, so we must not rush to send troops, we need to find out clearly and find out the enemy's situation before we can make proper preparations." ”

Yuan Shang nodded secretly in his heart, Liu Bei is worthy of being a person who has been in war for a long time, a person who has seen the battlefield many times, and knows the way to win a hundred battles in a hundred battles.

"In this case, Xuande Gong will reorganize the troops and horses in Runan, and I will lead the troops to Yingchuan in Japan to inquire about the situation in Xiahou Yuan."

Liu Bei nodded and said, "This is the best..... However, the virtuous nephew is a distinguished guest, if there is a bad pool, the blame is great, I don't worry about you going by yourself..... In this way, the younger brother Zhang Fei led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to go with the virtuous nephew, if the matter is urgent, they can also take care of each other, I don't know what the virtuous nephew wants? ”

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard this, and said, "General Zhang Fei can go with me to investigate, and I have a little more confidence in my heart, and I am worried about Lao Xuande!" ”
