Not far away.

Zhou Yu rode his horse with a sword and stood on the slope.

As far as the eye could see, the white-robed battalion was already withdrawing from the battlefield, but Zhang He and Han Meng's soldiers were fighting more and more fiercely.

Whether it was Zhang He or Han Meng, they all thought that the other party was deliberate.

As soon as this anger came up, no one refused to bow their heads first.

"Under Yuan Shao, there are too many private soldiers."

"All the troops will support their own troops, and it is difficult to give orders."

"Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang are like this, and so are Han Meng and Zhang He."

This time calculating Han Meng and Zhang He, Zhou Yu has gambling elements.

The bet is that Han Meng and Zhang He will have a misunderstanding because of the merit, and then they will not be angry with the other party for killing their own soldiers.

Zhou Yu bet right!

Although Zhang He had no idea of competing for merit, Zhang He had the prison army Guo Tu by his side who wanted to grab merit.

This trick is too targeted and difficult to replicate.

One of the important keys is that the generals of all the ministries served Yuan Shao as private soldiers.

If the Sixth Battalion of Qingzhou dares to compete for merit like this, the main general and deputy generals will all be held accountable.

Except for the broken military camp of Sun Jianbu's department, the other five battalions of the sixth battalion in Qingzhou cannot be called a private army.

Even if it was the first battalion of Koyi in the past, now it has been changed to the first battalion footmen, and it cannot be regarded as a private army.

The lack of soldiers is the biggest weakness of the soldiers and horses under Yuan Shao's command.

And beside Zhou Yu, Gongsun Xu, who was in charge of escorting the grain and grass, was full of horror.

After following Gongsun Chan with the army for many years, Gongsun Xu asked himself if he had never encountered the battlefield where his own people fought his own people today.

If someone had mentioned this kind of battlefield to Gongsun Xu before, Gongsun Xu would definitely scoff at it.

How can there be a situation where your own people will beat your own people!

But now, Gongsun Xu saw Han Meng's Cheng soldiers and Zhang He's Nanpi soldiers with his own eyes, and they were led to this crossing by Zhao Yun and Sun Ce, and then began to fight.

Gongsun Xu was incomprehensible, it was obviously Han Meng and Zhang He who surrounded Zhao Yun and Sun Ce, how could it turn into a melee between Han Meng and Zhang He?

"If my father had a strategist like Zhou Lang, how could he be defeated by Yuan Shao?" Gongsun Xu looked at Zhou Yu with a little more admiration.

Thinking of Gongsun Zhan, who was still in Yijing City, Gongsun Xu was a little more lonely.

Originally, Gongsun Xu wanted to go to Montenegro to move the rescue troops, but he was chased by Han Meng, and he had no chance to go to Montenegro to deliver the letter.

After a long time, Gongsun Xu gradually understood.

Gongsun Zhan didn't think that Gongsun Xu could move from Montenegro to rescue the soldiers, just to trick Gongsun Xu into going to Qingzhou.

"I don't know if my father can get out of trouble in Yijing City." Gongsun Xu looked in the direction of Yi Jingcheng and was quite worried.

Not much.

Zhao Yun and Sun Ce left the battlefield with the remaining white-robed battalion cavalry.

Although it successfully caused a melee between Zhang He and Han Meng, the soldiers of the white-robed battalion were also injured.

There was no time to grieve, Zhou Yu immediately proposed to abandon the heavy grain and grass, and only bring three days' rations per person.

Only by arriving in Leling City in the shortest possible time can we truly get out of trouble.

As Zhou Yu expected, Sun Jian did arrange a large number of spies in Nanpi.

Zhao Yun's failure to capture the city and the information that he was chased and killed by Zhang He were sent back to Leling City by a hurry.

This information made Sun Jian very confused: "Why did General Zhao go to seize Nanpi City?" They only have 500 horsemen, do they still want to knock down Nanpi City? ”

Sun Jian, who couldn't figure it out, immediately sent someone to ask Guan Yudian, Wei Zhanghong, and Chen Deng to enter the handsome account to discuss.

Zhang Hong immediately asserted: "General Zhao seized Nanpi City, not to attack Nanpi City, but to convey a signal for help to General Sun. ”

"Without further ado! General Sun, immediately send troops to Nanpi to meet General Zhao! ”

Chen Deng also said: "What Brother Zigang said is very true! But it's just that General Sun can't send troops, and he will break the banners of the barracks, the Xiandeng camp and the Ruishi camp. ”

"After receiving the white-robed battalion, immediately guide Pi City!"

"The momentum must be big, the bigger the better!"

"Only if our momentum is strong enough, Yuan Shao will increase his troops in Nanpi City."

Guan Yu was awe-inspiring: "Yuanlong, could it be that this is the time for you to talk to Zigang?" Is this the deployment of the conspiracy? ”

Chen Deng said with a smile: "The purpose of the conspiracy to let the prince take the lead in the camp to come to Leling City, and let Dian Wei pretend to be General Yide and lead the Ruishi battalion to Leling City, the purpose is to make Yuan Shao believe that it is not a bluff to make Jun set up a flag in the sixth battalion of the Plains Country!" ”

"The plan of the virtual and the real, the virtual and the real, there is no conclusion."

"Whether it is false or real will change with the change of the purpose of the scheme."

Sun Jian was shocked when he heard this: "That white-robed camp will take the road of Nanpi, is it also what Mr. Xianmou has long predicted?" ”

Chen Deng nodded: "Ever since I learned that Xianmou wanted Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to go to Yijing City by name, I guessed Xianmou's thoughts. ”

"General Zhao is cautious and will not take risks easily. If only General Zhao was there, the most likely route for the Baipao battalion would be to take the coast and avoid a military city like Nanpi as much as possible. ”

"But with Zhou Yu and Sun Ce here, the situation is different."

"If they are chased all the way, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce may not be able to bear it."

"With Zhou Yu's intelligence, he will definitely try to create a movement in Nanpi and lead General Sun to send troops."

"In this way, the white-robed battalion can not only successfully get out of trouble, but also counterattack Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses to vent their hatred."

Sun Jian thought about Sun Ce's personality, it is indeed as Chen Deng said, he is not a person who can endure easily.

"I didn't expect Mr. Xianmou, Tactics and Ah Yu to know each other so well." Sun Jian couldn't help but exclaim: "What if Ah Yu didn't take the road of Nanpi?" Or what if Ayu's plan fails? Does Mr. Xianmou trust Ah Yu so much? ”

Chen Deng chuckled: "On this battlefield, anything can happen, and General Sun's guess is not unreasonable." ”

"However, what Xian Mou is best at is drawing the overall situation, if the white-robed battalion fails to take the line of Nanpi within the expected time, then we will directly get the military order to attack Nanpi."

"In other words, since the White Robe Battalion went to Yijing City, it has not had much to do with the follow-up deployment of the conspiracy."

"Zhou Yu didn't take this road, or he failed after taking this road, which only affected Zhou Yu's future!"

"General Sun, congratulations on having two good juniors. After this battle, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu will inevitably be valued by the envoys, and they will envy others in the future. ”

Only Zhou Yu's future will be affected.

When Chen Deng said this, the doubts in Sun Jian's heart disappeared.

Whether Zhou Yu goes to Nanpi or not will not affect Zheng Ping's entire strategic deployment, but it will affect whether Zhou Yu can get Liu Bei's attention in the future.

Among the marching divisions in the six battalions of Qingzhou, only Zhou Yu has not yet reached the crown.

Zhou Yu is still a little unconvincing to the public as this military advisor.

And this time, Zhou Yu successfully guessed that part of Zheng Ping's deployment in Leling City could not only get out of trouble, but also gave the three battalions of soldiers and horses in Leling City a reason to attack Nanpi.

can count himself and the enemy, as a military advisor, Zhou Yu's performance is far better than ordinary people.

Soon, the broken barracks, the Xiandeng camp and the Ruishi battalion played their banners and went straight to Nanpi City with great momentum.

Knowing that the third battalion of Qingzhou had sent troops, Zhang He was so shocked that he retreated to Nanpi City, and hurriedly sent a messenger to Zhuocheng for 800 miles.

Don't blame Zhang He for panicking, Zhang He in this Nanpi City has only 3,000 soldiers and horses.

Most of Yuan Shao's mobile soldiers and horses were still fighting a decisive battle with Gongsun Zhan, and Han Meng, who could be used as reinforcements, didn't want to pay attention to Zhang He at all because of the melee.

And the three battalions of Qingzhou that sent troops this time:

Sun Jian, the commander of the broken military camp, is the best general under Yuan Shu in the past, and his record can be discussed from the first year of Xiping's conquest of Xuchang, and more than 20 years of battlefield battles, with great achievements.

Guan Yu, the main general of the camp first, the personal disciple of Lu Zhi, the general of the Han Dynasty, fought the Yellow Turban, fought against Dong Zhuo, fought Cao Cao, and destroyed Yuan Shu, and can be called the first general under Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei of the Ruishi Battalion, although his record is not as strong as Sun Jian and Guan Yu, as the commander of the Ruishi Battalion, which was the earliest established in Qingzhou, Zhang Fei's prestige cannot be underestimated.

As soon as these three battalions came out, even if Zhang He was one of the newly promoted Hebei Four Courts, and Nanpi had Guo Tu to conspire, he did not dare to be negligent.

In terms of troops, Zhang He only had 3,000 soldiers.

In terms of military generals, no matter the deputy generals of the three battalions, they are all brave people, and Sun Jian, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei alone are not comparable to Zhang He's soldiers and horses in Nanpi.

Although this Zhang Fei is a fake from Dian Wei, this fake Zhang Fei is more crazy on the battlefield than the real Zhang Fei!

In terms of strategists, although Guo Tu claims to be the first strategist under Yuan Shao, Zhang He is not stupid enough to think that there is no resourceful person in the third battalion of Qingzhou who can compete with Guo Tu.

They were all put together by the strategists in Zhao Yun's army, and they also boasted that they were the first strategists under Yuan Shao.

Zhang He is weak-hearted, and Guo Tu is also weak-hearted.

If it weren't for Zhang He's closing the four gates tightly and not allowing anyone to go out of the city, Guo Tu would have wanted to run away.

The mouth of the Bohai Sea.

The merchant ships of the Qingzhou salt merchants were moored in shallow water.

Bags of salt were unloaded from the ship and handed over to buyers for counting.

These are all buyers introduced by Xu Yi.

In the tent on the shore, Xu You was sitting at the same table with Zheng Ping.

From the first time he saw Zheng Ping, Xu You had a strange sense of familiarity with Zheng Ping.

However, Zheng Ping went north this time, as long as he saw people outside, he would disguise himself, although Xu You had a sense of familiarity, it was difficult to distinguish Zheng Ping's true identity.

Zheng Ping was very enthusiastic, and while pouring wine for Xu You, he made friends: "I have heard for a long time that Xu Taishou is a native of Nanyang, a lineage of the Xu family in Qingzhou, and two hundred years ago because of Wang Mang's usurpation of power, he also migrated from Nanyang to Qingzhou. ”

"Maybe the two ancestors still have some origins."

"It's an honor for me to be able to drink with Xu Taishou today."

Zheng Ping's words made Xu You's vigilance lower a lot.

A bottle of immortal stuffed into the throat, mellow and straight to the heart.

Xu You tried for a while, gradually believed in Zheng Ping's identity, and talked about the matter: "Master Xu, why do you have to avoid death?" ”

"Do you not believe in the Great General, or do you not believe in this mansion?"

Zheng Ping smiled: "Xu Taishou misunderstood, it's not that I don't trust the general and Xu Taishou. I'm a businessman, and this businessman is talking about a black letter on a white background, and the drawing is valid. ”

"The general swallows the sea, Xu Taishou Zhiguan is in the world, he will definitely be able to sweep the universe one day and reproduce the prosperous world."

"It's just that at that time, I, a small Qingzhou salt merchant, will not be able to enter the eyes of the general and Xu Taishou."

"Instead of increasing enmity in the future, let each one take what he needs today."

"I ask for a decree to avoid death, and Mrs. Xu can get a lot of money, so why not?"

Zheng Ping's words were beautiful, and Xu You also listened comfortably.

Especially the sentence "Xu Taishou Zhiguan is in the world", Xu You's heart was full of joy when he heard it.

"The head of the Xu family is very fast." Xu You laughed, and he was less wary of Zheng Ping in his heart.

Wall-to-wall grass, profit-seeking businessmen.

This is Xu You's judgment of Zheng Ping.

"The edict of avoiding death can be obtained for you, but this-" Xu You seemed to laugh instead of laughing, and deliberately only said half of it.

Zheng Ping smiled knowingly: "It's my honor to know Xu Taishou." This time, the buyer that my nephew was looking for for me has not yet received the payment, except for some deposits. ”

"I heard that there have been frequent wars in Zhuo County recently, and the people of Zhuo County must have also suffered from it."

"Mrs. Xu is diligent in government and loves the people, I admire it very much, and I am willing to give this money to Mrs. Xu for disaster relief."

"It's just that Mrs. Xu has to work hard to collect the accounts from these buyers in person."

Xu You laughed: "Master Xu, you are really a wonderful person!" ”

"Just rush to your heart, the edict you want to avoid death, this government will definitely do it for you."

Fumin disaster relief, how beautiful this is to say!

Even if you judge that old fellow, you can't find a reason to impeach me!

Xu You was happy in his heart, and his wariness against Zheng Ping was completely let go.

The degree of immortal brewing is on the high side, and these bottles of wine are in the stomach, and Xu You is a little drunk.

However, even if he was drunk, Xu You did not forget to win people over: "Master Xu, this mansion will tell you the truth, Gongsun Zhan is dying, and Liu Bei will not be able to become a climate." At most, in three years, the general will go south to Qingzhou, you might as well be an internal response to the government, and if you make a contribution in the future, the government can also give you credit. ”

Zheng Ping also seemed to be drunk: "Xu Taishou, with all due respect, the salt merchants of Qingzhou, including me, don't think that the current general can win Liu Qingzhou." ”

"There are some secrets that I couldn't have said, but looking at Xu Taishou's face, I'll say a few more words."

"There is a great drought in Guanzhong, Liu Yuanjun gave the Son of Heaven a table, and asked the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Qingzhou, and it won't be long before the Son of Heaven will come to Qingzhou."

"When the time comes, Qingzhou will be the place where the Son of Heaven is, and the general will fight Qingzhou, how will the rest of the states not send troops to help?"

Xu You was secretly taken aback, and deliberately waved his hand: "Xu family master, you think too much, the little emperor of Chang'an can't go to Qingzhou." ”

"Then Lu Bu Zhang Miao, and that Cao Cao, how could they let the little emperor go to Qingzhou?"

Zheng Ping shook his head: "Xu Taishou, Lu Bu and Zhang Miao can't stop it, there is a big drought in Guanzhong, and it is imperative for the Son of Heaven to move the capital." ”

"Lu Bu and Zhang Miao definitely want the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Chen Liu, but Chen Liu will soon encounter a natural disaster, which will completely destroy Lu Bu and Zhang Miao's ambitions."

Xu You was suddenly curious: "What natural disasters will Chen Liu?" ”

Zheng Ping said slowly: "Has Xu Taishou ever heard that there will be a locust plague after the drought? There is a great drought in Guanzhong, and locusts must fly east to feed. ”

"And Chen Liuhe Dongjun is the first to bear the brunt!"

"Xu Taishou, although I am only a businessman, I am very keen on the prediction of disasters in various places."

"After all, this disaster has also affected the sale of salt."

Xu You's eyes gradually became solemn.

Ask for a monthly pass and pretend to be forced
