Chapter 94 Yuan's loyal minister(1/2)

(PS: The 8,000-word chapter has been updated. Please vote for me and give me rewards.)

Deputy Director Tao, who has always had bad luck on the battlefield, has gradually begun to change his fortune recently. In the Battle of Xiangxian County, the elite Xuzhou army defeated Xiao Yuan Sangong's partial division. Although it was a sure shot, Deputy Director Tao had no idea how long it would take.

At the end of the day, what Deputy Director Tao never expected was that when the Xuzhou army took a detour to reach the Xiangxian battlefield, they happened to catch up with the partial division of Yuan Shu's army who moved their camp to the north bank of the Suishui River for the convenience of siege, and abandoned the previously built

Fortify the camp and set up camp again on the north bank of Suishui River where Deputy Director Tao can launch an attack without crossing the river. If Deputy Director Tao fails to seize this opportunity for a quick victory, Deputy Director Tao will basically die.

Because of this, facing the generous gift from Yuan Shujun's partial division, the ecstatic Deputy Director Tao did not hesitate to decide on the action of hijacking the camp and defeating the enemy. The result was no suspense. Suddenly, from the east path,

The elite troops of Xuzhou rushed out and broke through Yuan Shu's army's partial division camp that had not had time to reinforce. The fierce general Xu Chu was killed in three rounds. Chen Ji, who rushed to confront Yuan Shu's army, Xiangxian County guards Qin Yi and Xue Zhi also left the city without hesitation.

Raid, internal and external attacks destroyed Yuan Shu's army's partial division. Of the 30,000 Yuan Shu's army's partial division, only less than 10,000 people fled back to the main battlefield of Zhuyi under the leadership of Chen Jicong's brother Chen Jin. The Suishui River was also filled with the corpses of Yuan Shu's army soldiers, and the river stopped flowing.

.

When the news came back to Yuan Shujun's camp in Gaohuang Mountain, young Yuan Sangong was of course furious. As soon as Chen Ji's younger brother Chen Jin came back, he was immediately beheaded by young Yuan Sangong for questioning. Then the furious young Yuan Sangong immediately ordered an attack on the Xuzhou army.

At the Zhuyi defense line, Zang Ba, Chen Dao and other Xuzhou generals relied on rivers and fortifications to hold on resolutely. They fought hard against the troops of Xiao Yuan Sangong who came out. Although Xiao Yuan Sangong had a large number of troops, he was unable to break through due to the lack of elites.

The Zhuyi defense line was beaten back after crossing the river several times. It was a stalemate with the Xuzhou army, each having its own victory or defeat.

At this time, Yuan Shu's commander Shi Yanghong, who was almost all the civil and military officers of Yuan Shu's army, also unexpectedly escaped from Xiang County. Although Yang Changshi came back in a very embarrassed state, with blood and soil all over his body and face

He suffered a few minor injuries, but managed to escape, bringing with him nearly a thousand defeated troops of Yuan Shu's army who were sheltered on the road.

When he met Yang Hong, who was injured and escaped, Xiao Yuan Sangong had already heard about the tragic defeat in Xiangxian battlefield from the defeated soldiers. He knew that the defeat in Xiangxian County had nothing to do with Yang Hong, and saw that Yang Hong, a civil servant, could lead people close to him.

It is very rare for thousands of defeated soldiers to escape, so Little Yuan Sangong did not embarrass Yang Hong, who was the most favored minister not long ago. After a few words of comfort, Yang Hong went down to treat his injuries. Zhou Yu, Qiao Rui, Ji Ling and Jin Shang

The others all secretly cursed the sky for being blind - why didn't this sycophant die on the battlefield in Xiangxian County?

What surprised everyone was that after receiving Xiao Yuan Sangong's permission to treat the injury, Yang Hong, who usually moaned for a long time when he bumped into someone, was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic. Not only did he not go to the doctor immediately, but he kowtowed to Xiao Yuan Sangong and said: "

My lord, our army's partial division was unfortunately defeated. Tao Ying'er's elite troops and Xiangxian County will be freed up. They will definitely go south along the Sui River to reinforce the Zhuyi battlefield. I hope my lord will take precautions early and never make the same mistake as Chen Ji.

He was attacked by Tao Ying'er again."

"I know, Gong Jin has already warned me. I have already asked Lei Bo to lead an army of 10,000 men and stationed on the left wing of the battlefield to intercept. You don't have to worry. Just go down and treat the injury." Little Yuan Sangong replied smoothly, and Yang Hong was overjoyed.

, and flattered him out of habit, and then grunted and went down to treat the injury. Zhou Yu sneered and said to himself: "It's rare for a dog to spit out ivory once from its mouth."

The militant Little Yuan Sangong still has some troops capable of fighting a tough battle. At least the tens of thousands of veterans under Qiao Rui have some combat effectiveness. Although these veterans are no match for the elite soldiers under the command of Boss Cao, Da Yuan Sangong and Lu Wenhou.

However, against the Xuzhou Army, which was only second-rate, it still wasn't too far behind. In addition, Xiao Yuan Sangong was willing to die and dared to use the advantage in numbers and lives to offset the Xuzhou Army's combat advantage.

In the middle, it still caused a lot of trouble for Zang Ba and Chen Dao who stayed in Zhuyi. The Suishui defense line was broken through several times. Ji Ling, the general of Yuan Shu's army who had made great contributions to his crime, also led Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other generals to the Xuzhou army camp.

In front of the gate, fortunately, the Xuzhou army, which had been operating here for a long time, had strong fortifications. With the advantage of the geographical location, it was able to repel Yuan Shu's army's attack. However, it was also dangerous and dangerous, and all previous efforts were almost wasted.

Four days later, Tao Ying led an elite team back to support the Zhuyi battlefield. Lei Bo led his troops to intercept. He did not dare to fight Xu Chu, so he just formed a formation to attack. Although his tactics were correct, he unfortunately ran into Deputy Director Tao, who was best at collective warfare.

The fledgling Feng Yu Army showed off their might and pushed their long shields lined up in front of the Leibo Formation to prevent arrows. The Feng Yu Army, all crossbowmen, hid behind the shields and fired arrows in turn in three stages, desperately attacking Yuan Shu's army.

Raining down low-cost Fengyu arrows, although Lei Bojun fought hard with Fengyu's army, they quickly ran out of arrowheads and completely fell into the dilemma of being passively beaten. Xuzhou's No. 1 Ace Gentleman Army took advantage of the opportunity to attack, detoured to the flank and shot

Soldiers of Yuan Shu's army, Xu Chu also led a group of infantry to attack from the other wing. Lei Bo's army, which suffered heavy casualties, could not reach it and was defeated back to the Tianhuang Mountain camp. Tao Ying did not pursue him, but quickly cleaned up the battlefield and continued eastward, rushing to Zhuyi.

Battlefield reinforcements.

As all the elite troops of Xuzhou Army came back for reinforcements, and Qin Yi's troops were freed up to go south for reinforcements, the Zhuyi battlefield also fell into a stalemate again. Xiao Yuan Sangong, who could not break the Xuzhou Army's defense line, listened to Zhou Yu's suggestion and gave up the initiative to attack and turned to defense.

, Tao Ying sent troops to fight several times, but was flatly rejected by Sangong Xiao Yuan, and the war turned into a state of exhaustion that was most unfavorable to the Xuzhou army.

After a few days like this, Tao Ying, who was about to confront Xiao Yuan Sangong for a month, suddenly sent a letter and a gift box that said it contained a gift. Xiao Yuan Sangong was extremely curious and summoned the Xuzhou envoy to open Tao Ying's letter.

When he took a closer look, he discovered with a livid face that Tao Ying actually wrote this in the letter: "Ming Gonggui came out of the gate of the Fourth and Third Dukes to lead the people of Huainan. He did not want to wear a strong sword to judge the male and female, but he was willing to do so.

Guarding the earthen nest in the cave and avoiding swords and arrows are no different from women! Now I am sending people to send women plain clothes. If they don't go out to fight, you can worship again and accept them. If you are still shameful and have a man's mind, please come back early.

, go to the enemy as scheduled!"

At this time, the Xuzhou envoy who had obviously received the settlement fee took the initiative to open the gift box, revealing a set of women's clothes, and said arrogantly and arrogantly to Little Yuan Sangong: "Ming Gong, my master has said that if Ming Gong returns,

If you have any sense of shame, then please make an appointment to fight with my lord! If Ming Gong doesn’t even want the last bit of shame, please accept this set of women’s clothes, and my lord will never challenge me again!”

"Madman! Madman!" Little Yuan Sangong was not as shameless as the old thief Sima. He was so excited that he screamed, jumped up and yelled: "Come here, push this madman down and kill him! Click.

Raise your troops and go and fight to the death with the little thief Tao Ying!"

The guards in the tent rushed up and held down the Xuzhou envoy. The Xuzhou envoy, who had already received the settlement fee, was not afraid. He just laughed and continued to stimulate Little Yuan Sangong. Little Yuan Sangong became even more furious. He started yelling and yelling.

They wanted to send troops immediately. Zhou Yu, Qiao Rui, Ji Ling, Jin Shang and others next to them were all anxious. They hurriedly went out to salute and persuaded one after another: "My lord, please calm down, please calm down. This is Tao Ying's plan to provoke the general."

, My lord must not fall for Tao Ying’s trick and fall into his trap!”

"Shut up!" Little Yuan Sangong also went completely crazy, shouting with blood-red eyes: "My family is the fourth generation and the third male. I have disciples all over the world. How can I be humiliated by this woman? I have made up my mind. Send troops to fight with that woman.

Tao Ying's son will fight to the death, and anyone who talks too much will be killed!"

It was the first time that Zhou Yu and others saw Young Master Yuan Sangong so angry. They were completely helpless. They were all ready to accept their fate and prepare for a new defeat. But at this moment, someone suddenly walked out of the queue of civil servants - it was Yuan Shujun.

Mr. Yang Hong, the chief historian! Yang Hong strode up to the Xuzhou envoy, picked up the woman's clothes in his hand, quickly put the deep skirt on his body, picked up the silk belt and tied it around his waist, smiling at everyone

Asked: "Lord, colleagues, please take a look at the length, width and width? Does it fit the lower body properly?"

Seeing the nearly 40-year-old Yang Hong put on women's clothes, the civil and military officials of Yuan Shu's army who were present naturally burst into laughter. Little Yuan Sangong, who was already in a rage, couldn't help laughing, and his anger was greatly reduced, and then

Then he shouted angrily: "Yang Hong, why are you like this?"

"My lord, please rest your thunderous wrath for a moment and listen to what I have to say slowly." Yang Hong, who was dressed in women's clothing, cupped his hands and said plausibly: "My lord, Tao Ying'er sent people to bring women's clothes here. His intention is obvious, which is to provoke

The lord went to fight. But in this way, it just proved that the lord's previous tactics were appropriate. He used his troops like a god and forced Tao Ying into a desperate situation. He had to use this little trick to anger the lord! The lord is so wise and powerful. If he fell into this little trick, wouldn't it be wrong?

Make the world laugh at you?"

"Huh? The sun came out from the west today?" Zhou Yu, Qiao Rui and Jin Xuan and other loyal ministers and generals of Yuan Shu's army looked at each other, and for the first time they discovered that Yang Changshi had a cute side. Then Zhou Yu, Qiao Rui and others did not hesitate,

He quickly echoed: "My lord, Yang Changshi's words are right. Tao Ying's little trick was forced by my lord's correct tactics!"

The anger on Xiao Yuan Sangong's face subsided slightly and he began to think calmly. Over there, Yang Hong turned to the envoy sent by the Xuzhou army and said with a smile: "Go back and tell Tao Ying Xiao'er that his purpose is very clear to me. He is just worried about this place."

The war has been dragging on for a long time, and changes have occurred in his Xuzhou rear. However, my lord Sheng Ming Zhuzhao will never be fooled. If you want to fight, you can fight. My lord is waiting at the Gaohuang Mountain camp. As long as he has the courage to attack, just come."

The expression of the Xuzhou envoy who was willing to die just now finally changed, but Yang Hong turned to Little Yuan Sangong again, shook the women's clothes on his body and said with a smile: "My lord, I am brave, I beg your lord to reward me with this set of women's clothes, and then

Please, my lord, give me a set of rouge and gouache. In order to help your lord defeat the enemy, my lord is willing to put on women's clothes and smear rouge to look like a heroine. However, he showed it to the public by the Suishui River to see what Tao Ying's son will do."

Thinking of Yang Hong's smeared appearance, Little Yuan Sangong finally laughed out loud. All the civil and military officials of Yuan Shu's army present also burst into laughter. Yang Hong then took the opportunity to say: "My lord, the two countries are at war. If you don't kill the envoy, my lord."

How can you, a member of a famous family, kill an envoy and destroy a book to be criticized by the world? In my opinion, it is better for the lord to take advantage of the plan and let the envoy go back, and then write a letter to reply to Tao Ying's son, saying to thank him for the gift on behalf of the humble minister. If he has the courage

In the decisive battle, he will send his troops to attack the Gaohuang Mountain camp. If he can't, then he should put down his weapons and surrender to the lord early, so that Quanquan can survive, lest Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Liu Bei and Yuan Shao attack his retreat in the future and leave him without a burial place!

"

"Yang Changshi's clever plan, my lord can adopt it!" Zhou Yu was the first to shout. Over there, Qiao Rui, Ji Ling, Jin Xuan and others also agreed, encouraging little Yuan Sangong to adopt Yang Hong's clever plan, and little Yuan Sangong was

After Yang Changshi's clown performance was over, his anger had long since dissipated, and he heard what Yang Hong and the generals said made sense, so he nodded and said: "Very good, let's do it like this."

So, under the clever persuasion of his loyal ministers Yang Hong and Yang Changshi, Xiao Yuan Sangong finally avoided Deputy Director Tao's aggressive tactics. He continued to be determined not to go to war, and at the same time, he deliberately treated the envoys kindly and turned around to anger Deputy Director Tao.

And when the messenger who was destined to make Deputy Director Tao waste his settlement money brought back Xiao Yuan Sangong's reply, Deputy Director Tao was completely at his wits' end. At the same time, our Yang Hong and Yang Changshi also relied on this clever persuasion to completely reverse the situation.

This improved his image in the eyes of Yuan Shujun's loyal ministers and good generals. Even General Qiao Rui, who had always hated Yang Changshi, for the first time greeted Yang Hong and bowed his hands when the accounts were dismissed.

What made the loyal ministers of Yuan Shu's army look at Yang Changshi with admiration was still later. The next day, Yang Changshi made two good suggestions to Xiao Yuan Sangong in public. One was to ask Xiao Yuan Sangong to send Qiao Rui to lead an army to divide the troops and station them.

Huangshan, four miles east of Gaohuang Mountain, also built a strong camp there, forming an angle with the main camp. In this way, no matter which camp the Xuzhou army attacked, the other camp could send troops to attack the rear and attack it from both front and rear.

.And once the Xuzhou army divided its troops to attack the two camps at the same time, it immediately exposed the weakness of the Xuzhou army's insufficient strength. It took advantage of Yuan Shu's army's large number of troops to use its own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

Not to mention, Yang Changshi's idea was really good. Even Zhou Yu, who was resourceful and resourceful, greatly appreciated it. Little Yuan Sangong, who was troubled by various problems caused by the crowding of more than 100,000 people in a camp in Gaohuang Mountain, was even more delighted. He immediately

Adopting Yang Changshi's suggestion, he decided to let Qiao Rui lead an army of 30,000 to Huangshan to set up a camp, so as to form an alliance with the main camp. However, Yang Changshi's second suggestion made Xiao Yuan Sangong frown -

Because Yang Changshi suggested that Xiao Yuan Sangong send an envoy to contact Cao Cao, his mortal enemy, and seek an alliance with Cao Boss to fight against Tao.

"Cao Cao and I are at odds with each other. I sent an envoy to contact him. How could he agree?" Little Yuan Sangong frowned and asked: "Besides, Cao Cao is at war with Lu Bu, so how can he divide his troops to attack Xuzhou?"

"Please rest assured, my lord, Wei Chen believes that the traitor Cao will definitely agree!" Yang Changshi replied firmly: "The traitor Cao hates the traitor Tao Ying the most, and is extremely wary of the sudden rise of the traitor Tao Ying. My lord went to seek an alliance with him.

, he will definitely agree. And given Lu Bu’s capricious character, once Cao Cao’s thieves send troops to Xuzhou and Tao Ying is in danger, Lu Bu will definitely take the opportunity to send troops to Xuzhou, pretending to be a rescue, but actually fishing in troubled waters, making it even more difficult for Tao Ying’s son to take care of him!"

Speaking of this, Yang Changshi said more categorically: "There is also the traitor Liu Bei who also hates Tao Ying's son. The reason why Liu Bei has been standing still is because he is not strong enough to shake Tao Ying's foundation. If Cao's traitor sends troops

Xuzhou, Liu Bei will definitely take advantage of the situation to rob Xuzhou and also rush into Xuzhou! By then, four groups of troops will besiege the five counties of Xuzhou. Even if Tao Ying's son has the ability to reach heaven and earth, he is destined to be unable to parry. Huaiyin's former humiliation and the hatred of Xiangxian County, the Lord can also do it.

Fight Snow!"

"Father-in-law, Yang Changshi's plan is so clever!" Zhou Yu couldn't wait to get out of the queue, clasped his fists and said to Little Yuan Sangong: "The traitor Cao is the most traitorous traitor in the world. He only has a feud with the lord on the battlefield, but he has killed his father with the Tao family of Xuzhou.

He also deeply hated Tao Ying for supporting Lu Bu in occupying the three counties of Yanzhou. When the lord asked him for an alliance, he must have weighed the priorities and agreed to form an alliance with the lord! As soon as the traitor Cao took action, the two traitors Liu Bei and Lu Bu would definitely take advantage of the situation.

, making it even more difficult for Tao Ying to take care of his child!"

"My lord, what Mr. Zhongming said is absolutely true. This is a great plan. Please adopt it, lord!" Qiao Rui, Ji Ling, Jin Shang and other loyal ministers of the Yuan family spoke one after another and strongly agreed with Yang Changshi's clever plan.

"Then... let's give it a try." Little Yuan Sangong was finally moved and said, "Follow Zhongming's plan and immediately send envoy Yanzhou to contact Cao Cao."

The loyal ministers of Yuan Shu's army were overjoyed and praised their lord's wisdom one after another. They no longer had the slightest objection to Yang Changshi's subsequent flattery. After the account was dismissed, when Yang Changshi walked out of the Chinese army's tent, he once again took the initiative to leave.

When he reached Zhou Yu's side, he laughed in a low voice and said, "Gong Jin, I didn't expect that our opinions can be consistent today. It's really rare."

"It's really rare." Zhou Yu nodded, bowed to Yang Changshi, and said sincerely: "Mr. Zhongming, Zhou Yu is young and frivolous. He has offended you a lot before. I hope you will forgive me for what I have offended. Please rest assured, sir."
