Autumn September.

Guan Yubing came to Xiapi, killed Xiapi Xiangrong, and ordered the Buddhist temples in Xiapi not to occupy the fertile land.

In the same month, Guan Yu spread the word to the counties of Xuzhou, and on the grounds that Yuan Shu drove troops to invade the territory, he transferred troops to recruit the traitor Yuan Shu!

Guan Yu's Xiandeng battalion, Cao Bao's Danyang soldiers, Zang Ba Sun Guan's Langya soldiers, and the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou counties who were recruited gathered towards the Huai River.

From Xuyi to Huaiyin, relying on the Huai River to lay down the defense line.

In the same month.

Cao Cao withdrew Pengcheng's soldiers and horses to Qian County, and also spread the word to the counties to recruit the rebel Yuan Shu.

Cao Ren led a vanguard of 5,000 people and went south along the vortex river, and the soldiers pointed to Shouchun.

The sudden conquest directly stunned Yuan Shu.

"Guan Yu will go south to arrange a defensive line, my father has expected it."

"Liu Bei won't give up Xuzhou easily."

"But this Cao Agui, is it pure to go against this father?"

Shouchun City.

Looking at Cao Cao's writing, Yuan Shu's anger echoed in his heart.

Wang Jun came to lobby Yuan Shu before, but was dismissed by Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu also asked Wang Jun to go back and tell Cao Cao that he would withdraw from Xuzhou after killing Tao Qian, otherwise Cao Cao would be slaughtered together.

And now.

After Cao Cao killed Tao Qian, he did withdraw from Xuzhou.

Cao Cao, who withdrew from Xuzhou, directly wanted to fight Shouchun!

"The grandson of the eunuch, the fat man who is black and short, the slut who robs the bride!"

"Sure enough, Cao Apu is the most ruthless and unjust."

The more Yuan Shu thought about it, the more angry he became.

Now Sun Jian's conquest of Jiangdong is at a critical moment, and he cannot be easily withdrawn.

Otherwise, the war against Jiangdong will be wasted.

Yuan Shu was annoyed.

Every time you are about to achieve your goal, someone comes to cause trouble!

Yan Xiang advised: "General Sun has not returned yet, and it is really unwise to start a war with Cao Cao and Guan Yu at the same time at this time. ”

"It's better to withdraw General Ji Ling temporarily, and give up Xiapi Kingdom and Guangling County to Guan Yu, Guan Yu got Xiapi Kingdom and Guangling County, and he won't come to Huainan in a short time."

"Duke Yuan gathered all his heavy troops in Huainan to resist Cao Cao, and Huainan had many soldiers and a wide range of food, which was enough to hold on."

"The longer it drags on, there will definitely be contradictions between Cao Cao and Guan Yu."

Yan Xiang's idea is quite good.

Although Yuan Shu is relatively wasteful, if he just chooses to stick to it, this Huainan will not be easily taken down by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was in a hurry to defeat Yuan Shu, but Guan Yu could take it slowly.

The longer this time drags on, the more Guan Yu will control Xuzhou.

Although Yuan Shu was to be consulted, Liu Bei did not set a deadline for Guan Yu, was it three months, half a year, or a year?

However.

Guan Yu can afford to drag it, but Cao Cao can't afford it!

If you can't get the benefits in Xuzhou, if you can't even get the benefits of Huainan, then Cao Cao will really be empty.

The more impatient Cao Cao was, the more likely he was to make mistakes.

Yuan can wait and see what happens in Shouchun.

It's a pity.

If Yuan Shu can listen to this kind of defensive opinion, then it is not Yuan Shu.

"Shou?"

"You let Ben Gong guard?"

"My duke has 180,000 soldiers and horses in Huainan, many soldiers and generals, and plenty of grain and grass, you let my duke guard it?"

Yuan Shu vetoed Yan Xiang's advice on the spot.

Yan Xiang was speechless.

180,000 soldiers?

This can also scare and scare people who don't know the inside story.

Do you still need to say such absurd words?

Among the 180,000 soldiers and horses, can you pick out 30,000 young and strong?

Have these 30,000 young men ever trained? Have you eaten enough every day?

How many soldiers are eating mussels to satisfy their hunger?

Yuan Shu looked like a son of a family who "why not eat minced meat", and it didn't matter what the soldiers ate at all.

As long as Yuan Shu eats well, and the generals under Yuan Shu eat well, it is enough.

"Yuan Gong, if you don't defend, it will be difficult to separate Cao Cao and Guan Yu."

"Now that General Sun has not returned, the three-front battle, if there is a slight difference, the defeat of Fengqiu City will be repeated."

Yan Xiang, who had been persuading hard, was not aware of Yuan Shu's gradually gloomy face.

The defeat of Fengqiu City has always been Yuan Shu's pain.

Not only did he lose miserably, but he also lost the jade seal of the country!

"Someone came, took off the crown and hat of Yan Xiang, forked it out, and put him in prison." Yuan Shu gritted his teeth: "A poor scholar is also worthy of discussing major matters with my father." ”

Yan Xiang was dumbfounded.

How did I become a poor scholar?

"Yuan Gong, your loyalty is against your ears!" Yan Xiang also wanted to defend himself.

But the warriors only listened to Yuan Shu's orders, and immediately took off Yan Xiang's crown and hat and forked Yan Xiang out.

Yuan Shu swept around the civil and military forces, and his tone was gloomy: "Who else wants to persuade this prince to stick to Huainan?" ”

Yan Xiang was directly taken off his crown and taken into prison, who would dare to say that he would stick to it?

"Liu Xun, give you 20,000 soldiers and horses to go to the lower reaches of the vortex river to resist Cao Cao."

"Qiao Rui, give you 20,000 soldiers and horses, go and fight Xiaopei."

"Zhang Xun, give you 20,000 soldiers and horses, and go north to take Pengcheng."

"Lei Bo and Chen Lan, you two will each command 20,000 soldiers, and go to Guangling to get Langya and Jieshi."

"Then send an order to Ji Ling, bypass the guards from Xuyi to Huaiyin, and take Picheng directly."

"Bengong personally supervised the army to fight Guan Yu!"

"Seven ways go hand in hand, who can resist?"

Yuan Shu was in high spirits.

A lot of soldiers is capricious!

However, this is not a taste in the ears of the generals.

It sounds like 20,000 soldiers per person, and the ones who beat Xiaopei, Pengcheng, Langya, Jieshi and Xiapi can barely fight.

After all, there are few defenders.

Liu Xun, who could resist Cao Cao, was uncomfortable.

20,000 rabble, go to fight Cao Cao?

Is this any different from sending people to death?

"Yuan Gong, Cao's army is powerful, with 20,000 soldiers, it's really hard to resist!" Liu Xun was so anxious that he was about to cry: "Everyone, my family is in Shouchun City, if I can't resist it, my family will be gone." ”

The generals were also panicked in their hearts.

What has become of the soldiers in Huainan, there is nothing unclear about the generals present.

How could 20,000 soldiers be able to resist Cao Cao's tiger and wolf soldiers?

Qiao Rui thought of the two flower-like daughters in the family, and hurriedly said: "Yuan Gong, Xiaopei is too far away, even if he wins it, he will become a lonely soldier." ”

"The last general is willing to resist Cao Cao with General Liu."

Zhang Xun also said: "Duke Yuan, now Cao Cao and Guan Yu are in transgression, and it is not suitable to use the tactics of encircling Wei to save Zhao, and the last general is willing to resist Cao Cao with General Liu and General Qiao." ”

Liu Xun, Qiao Rui, and Zhang Xun all have to resist Cao Cao, and Lei Bo Chen Lan is not far behind.

One of them is going to fight Langya, and the other is going to fight Jieshi, aren't they all going deep alone?

Lei Bo came out and said: "Yuan Gong, the last general thinks that there is no need to divide the troops into two ways, only need to resist Cao Cao and Xu Tu Guan Yu!" The last general, Lei Bo, asked for his life to resist Cao Cao. ”

Chen Lan also hurriedly asked for his life: "The last general, Chen Lan, please resist Cao Cao!" If you don't break Cao Cao, you will never return. ”

The five-way army was about to fight Cao Cao, and Yuan Shu's face suddenly turned black as the bottom of a pot.

However.

Facing Yuan Shu's fierce eyes, Liu Xun and the five of them bowed their heads and did not speak.

This is very clear.

If you don't want to go out of Huainan, you can resist Cao Cao in the lower reaches of the Vortex River.

"A bunch of rubbish!" Yuan Shu was so angry that he scolded: "If you can't stop Cao Cao, after my father comes back, I will definitely ask you and others for their crimes." ”

But the generals were unwilling, and it was difficult for Yuan Shu to forcibly order the generals out of Huainan. can only let Liu Xun and the five of them each command 20,000 soldiers to block Cao Cao.

If he did not agree, Yuan Shu could only accept Yan Xiang's proposal and stick to Huainan and wait for the opportunity.

But that's not what Yuan Shu wants!

What Yuan Shu wanted was to attack Xuzhou, take Xuzhou, and then capture Cao Cao.

When Sun Jian pacified Jiangdong, Yuan Shu would have three states.

Three states, who is still the opponent?

Privately.

Liu Xun, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo and Chen Lan got together.

"The situation is not good, Cao Cao and Guan Yu suddenly want to fight Shouchun, I always feel that Yuan Gong can't hold it." Liu Xun was worried.

The five of them are now all assigned to resist Cao Cao in the lower reaches of the Vortex River, and they are both prosperous and lossy, so naturally they are not worried that someone will tell them.

Zhang Xun also said: "In the battle of Fengqiu City, we have already seen Guan Yu's power. At that time, Guan Yu's troops were far inferior to us. ”

"Now that Guan Yu is the pastor of Xuzhou, and there are Qingzhou soldiers to help, how can Yuan Gong resist it."

Qiao Rui said: "Hey, it's normal that Yuan Gong can't beat Guan Yu. But Yuan Gong can't defeat Guan Yu and can withdraw his troops back to Huainan, what I'm more worried about is, can we stop Cao Cao? ”

Lei Bo said: "We have 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Cao Cao's soldiers and horses are at most 30,000. Cao Cao is outnumbered, or the besieging party, as long as we hold on, we can still stop it, right? ”

Liu Xun said with contempt: "100,000 soldiers and horses, can there be 20,000 soldiers who can fight?" How many times have these 20,000 soldiers been trained? Can't even eat enough, counting on them to resist Cao Cao to the death? ”

"Except for our respective guard battalions, the rest of the soldiers are a rabble, not even the Black Mountain thieves, how can you stop it?"

Lei Bo was speechless for a moment.

Chen Lan said: "But if we can't resist it, what should we do?" ”

The generals fell silent.

Now the most capable soldiers and horses under Yuan Shu's command are in the hands of Sun Jian and one in the hands of Ji Ling.

The rest are all rabble.

It's hard to block, but you can't stop it

Liu Xun said ruthlessly: "It's better to take advantage of Yuan Gong to fight Guan Yu, and I will send all my family members to Hefei Houguo first." ”

"If you can block it, if you can't stop it, we will take our respective guard battalions to Hefei Houguo."

"I and the other five generals add up, and there are 2,000 people in the guard battalion."

"If the Marquis of Hefei can't stay, we will directly occupy the mountain as the king, which is better than following Yuan Gong to death."

Liu Xun's proposal was quickly recognized by Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo and Chen Lan.

followed Yuan Shu to rob the Huainan family, and the five generals were all capable generals.

But if you really want to fight Cao Cao, no one wants to fight to the death.

Yuan Shu didn't know that Liu Xun and the five of them had the idea of running away, and after dispatching 50,000 soldiers and horses, they slaughtered Xuyi.

These generals are unreliable, and Yuan Shu can only go into battle in person.

Although he lost to Guan Yu last time, Yuan Shu didn't think he was as good as Guan Yu.

"The defeat of Fengqiu City is because my father didn't expect Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Zhang Miao to come."

"Even Xiang Yu can be defeated by an ambush from all sides, and it is very reasonable for this prince to be defeated by an ambush from all sides."

"But this time is different, Guan Yu won't have the opportunity to invite the allies again."

"Cao Cao is blocked in the vortex river, Liu Bei is also in Qingzhou, and this duke can attack Guan Yu with all his strength."

"Humph! This time, Bengong is going to be ashamed. ”

And in the direction of Peiguo.

Cao Ren saw that five flags were erected in the lower reaches of the Vortex River, including Liu Xun, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo and Chen Lan, and there were 100,000 soldiers and horses.

5,000 to 100,000, Cao Ren doesn't have the courage.

The messenger hurriedly sent the military information to the hands of Cao Cao, the Chinese army.

"100,000 soldiers and horses, Yuan Highway really looks up to the general." Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.

Xi Zhicai said: "Most of the Nanyang soldiers and Yuzhou soldiers on Yuan Highway were lost in Fengqiu City and Runan, and Sun Jian was attacking Jiangdong Counties, these 100,000 soldiers and horses are estimated to be the same as the Black Mountain thieves, most of them are old and weak, women and children. ”

"There are less than 20,000 who can fight!"

Guo Jia added: "I heard that Yuan Shu wantonly collected money and grain in Huainan, but he didn't organize the people to farm. ”

"The people of Huainan are mostly poor, and many people have fled."

"And Yuan Shu's soldiers even rely on river mussels to satisfy their hunger."

"A group of hungry soldiers, it is impossible to participate in much training, and it is estimated that they will be able to recognize a handsome flag."

"Such soldiers, let alone 20,000, 100,000 are also a rabble."

Cao Cao laughed: "Yuan Highway is a dignified son of the Yuan family, but he is like a bandit." ”

"But if he organizes the people in Huainan to settle the fields, he will not let the soldiers eat river mussels to satisfy their hunger."

"With such ability, if it weren't for the Yuan family, I would have starved to death on the streets."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The more brutal Yuan Shu is in Huainan, the more the people of Huainan will look forward to the arrival of Ming Gong." ”

"Cutting down crimes and hanging the people, Ming Gong is the righteous person who saves the people of Huainan."

Guo Jia's praise made Cao Cao very useful: "This general is determined to help the Han family, and naturally wants to save the people of the world." ”

"Yuan Shu has no virtue, when he was in Nanyang, he made the people of Nanyang complain, and when he was in Yuzhou, he made the people of Yuzhou complain, and now he is in Huainan, and he still does not change."

"Let Ben General come to save the suffering Huainan people, haha!"

The laughter rang out, it was Cao Cao's contempt for Yuan Shu.

Yuanmen's son-in-law, that's just it!

Xuyi.

Guan Yu gathered troops here.

Yuan Shu's dispatch of troops did not hide Guan Yu's spying.

Huainan's intelligence is too easy to spy on!

Guan Yu's spies only need to give a bucket of grain and rice to buy several Yuan Shu soldiers.

"Yuan Shupifu, I really don't have a long memory."

"If a general is not sympathetic to the soldiers, cannot share weal and woe with the soldiers, and cannot distinguish rewards and punishments, how can the soldiers be able to serve sincerely?"

Although Yuan Shu had 50,000 soldiers and horses, plus Ji Ling's 10,000 soldiers and horses, the 60,000 soldiers and horses attacked Xuyi with great momentum.

In Guan Yu's eyes, Yuan Shu's 60,000 soldiers are just a group of people who sell their heads and are local chickens and dogs.

"Junhou, this time's plan is a little simpler." Chen Deng on the side also spoke.

When he was in Fengqiu City before, Guan Yu was too cautious and calculated too many possibilities and accidents, and as a result, he easily took Yuan Shu's Fengqiu City.

This made Guan Yu feel like a glaive knife slashing mosquitoes.

"Although Yuan Shu is incompetent, I can't be too self-conscious." Guan Yu remembered Zheng Ping's advice and said, "Let's use the trick of luring the enemy." Guan personally went to lure the enemy, and Mr. Yuanlong was responsible for ambushing the soldiers. ”

Chen Deng nodded.

It is a very common strategy to use both the strategy of luring the enemy and the strategy of ambushing the army.

Although it is not very clever, it is more than enough to deal with Yuan Shu.

Guan Yu and Chen Deng were both worried that if the strategy was used too cleverly, Yuan Shu would not be able to understand it and not be fooled, it would be uncomfortable.

Ahem, when there is a war, it is not written well.
