Zhang Fei is the kind of rough man who is straightforward and will not hide his mood. Yuan Fang could see that he was deeply hating Guan Yu.

Why did he hate Guan Yu?

Because after the Battle of Xia Pi, he had already seen that Guan Yu and Liu Bei were birds of a feather, with a benevolent, righteous, loyal and brave person, but in fact he was cold-blooded and ruthless, and he was hypocritical.

Before Liu Bei's death, Zhang Fei's actions of claiming to be emperor made him completely see Liu Bei's hypocrisy.

Although Liu Bei's proclaimed emperor was done by Yuan Fang with his heart reading, it was just Yuan Fang who dug out Liu Bei's ambitions hidden in his heart.

Now, Guan Yu is desperate and goes to Zhang Yang. This behavior is so similar to Liu Bei's back then.

Guan Yu was even more cruel than Liu Bei.

Zhang Yang kindly took Guan Yu in. Not only did Guan Yu dare not remember his kindness, he even revenged his grudges, killed Zhang Yang, and surrendered to Yuan Shao!

Such ungrateful acts have left Zhang Fei with a slight friendship that remains for him.

All that is left is contempt and disgust, and deep hatred.

"Guan Yu saw that Zhang Yang was so powerful that he could not compete with me, so he killed Zhang Yang and surrendered to Yuan Shao. He wanted to use Yuan Shao's hand to deal with me. He wanted to seek revenge on me and was crazy." Yuan Fang sighed.

Yuan Fang's feelings were like adding fuel to the fire, which made Zhang Fei even more angry.

His fists were clenched, and he said angrily: "This villain Guan Yu didn't expect that he was such an ungrateful person. I, Zhang Fei, was really blind at the beginning. He actually made a fist with such a person!"

Zhang Fei regretted it too much, and he misunderstood his mistakes and regretted what he did back then.

Back then, as a butcher, if he had not been deceived by Liu Bei's passionate and sweet words, how could he have formed a feud with Liu Bei, nor would he have spent all his money to help Liu Bei up.

Without his support from Zhang Fei, how could Liu Bei rise up, let alone wander around, harming all directions, causing many people to die.

Now that Liu Bei is dead, he doesn't expect that Guan Yu, the remnant, still exists. He inherits Liu Bei's hypocritical and cruel nature and continues to do evil.

All kinds of things are inseparable from what Zhang Fei does, how can he not blame himself?

"Yide doesn't have to blame himself. Liu Bei and Guan Yu are both good at confusing people's hearts. Fortunately, Liu Bei has been killed, and there is still Guan Yu left. I will get rid of him sooner or later." Yuan Fang comforted.

Zhang Fei's self-blame mood was slightly calmed down.

Yuan Fang looked at him and said seriously: "I just want to ask, what would you do if one day in the future, Yide, you bumped into Guan Yu on the battlefield?"

"If I run into him, I, Zhang Fei, will kill him with my own hands, except for this remnant of the big ears!" Zhang Fei replied without hesitation and gritted his teeth.

Zhang Fei's hatred was written on his face. Even if Yuan Fang did not use his mind reading pupils, he could see that he was born from the heart.

"Okay, I'll feel relieved with Yide's words. You and I will work side by side to fight to the death with Yuan Shao and Guan Yu!" Yuan Fanghao said sternly.

Zhang Fei focused his head heavily, and above his black face, anger and resoluteness were burning like fire.

On that day, the war mobilization order was issued. The troops quickly gathered, and tens of thousands of hu of food and grass began to transport north continuously.

A few days later, Yuan Fang's troops came out of Dingtao and personally led an army of 100,000 to head towards the line of the white horse Puyang, and went to fight Yuan Shao to the death.

On the front line of Chenliu, Yuan Fang still ordered Taishi Ci to lead an army of 10,000 to guard against Cao Cao.

On the front lines of Hefei and Shouchun, there were Man Chong, Ji Ling, Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng, who commanded 15,000 troops to guard against Sun Ce.

In the front line of Hulao Pass, in view of the fact that Hanoi County has been included in Yuan Shao's territory, in order to prevent Yuan Shao from crossing the river from Hanoi to attack Luoyang, Yuan Fang gave Zhu Lingzeng's troops to 10,000 and ordered him to station Hulao.

In addition, on the Pingyuan line, Guo Huai led his army of 7,000 to defend Pingyuan City and prevent Yuan Shao from dividing his troops to attack Qingzhou.

In this battle, Yuan Fang used almost all his troops, and only more than 3,000 troops were left to garrison in Dingtao City.

He has no way out.

In this battle, if you win, you will survive, if you lose, you will die!

...

A hundred miles north of Liyang, Neihuang City.

At the south of the city, flags cover the sky, shining like the sea, and the wilderness within ten miles of the radius were all occupied by the camps of the Northern Army.

On the road leading to Yecheng, teams of infantry, cavalry, and mule carts were still arriving continuously, and the long snake-like marching team meandered northward, and could not see the end at first sight.

The 200,000 Hebei army is heading south in a mighty manner.

In the central army camp, Yuan Shao, wearing golden armor, was sitting high above the huge camp camp, with his old face without any concealing his proud and arrogant attitude that despises the world.

In front of the tent, a military general with one-eyed and blushed face knelt on the ground with a serious face.

Yuan Shao looked down at the man and asked coldly: "Chief Guan Yun, why did you kill Zhang Yang and surrender to me?"

The one who kneels in front of the tent is Guan Yu.

A few days ago, he killed Zhang Yang and surrendered to Yuan Shao by a county in Hanoi. He even came to Neihuang in person to show his sincerity to surrender.

Guan Yu raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Yu dare not hide it from Duke Yuan. Yuan Fang's traitor killed my elder brother. Yu could not take revenge with his own strength. Only by seeking Duke Yuan can he kill Yuan Fang and avenge my bloody hatred."

Guan Yu didn't say anything complimenting to admire Yuan Shao, but directly expressed his true intentions.

"You are honest, very good." Yuan Shao nodded slightly, "Yuan Fang, a little beast, is betraying his father and killing his brother, and he will cause trouble to the emperor. I will set up a 200,000 army to go south today to get rid of this disaster. As long as you are willing to be loyal to me, I will make you revenge for killing your brother."

"Thank you for your kindness, lord." Guan Yu knelt down on both knees, looking grateful.

Yuan Shao didn't say much to Guan Yu, and waved his hand to ask him to go and rest first and join his army on the spot.

Afterwards, Yuan Shao sent officials to send troops to take over Hanoi County.

Having won Hanoi with his fingers and having a general Guan Yu, it means that he had such a great gain before the war began. Yuan Shao was full of energy and was extremely proud.

"Guan Yu's return is a great omen, indicating that the lord will surely destroy Yuan Fang's traitors and unify the world when he goes south!" Xu You took the opportunity and bowed to congratulate Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao laughed loudly and became more proud.

At this time, Ju Su calmly said: "Yuan Fang held the land of the three states. According to information, he had already raised up 100,000 troops and came to fight our army. He should not underestimate the enemy. He believed that the lord should go south with the main force, and at the same time divide the light cavalry and copy the side and back, which is the best strategy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu You said, "Donald's plan is too conservative. Now the lord has a army of 200,000. Why bother to split the way? Just use the army to crush the south directly. Who can stop it!"

"Well, Ziyuan's words are reasonable." Yuan Shao stroked his beard and said proudly: "My army of 200,000, and his upright army, how could he stop the number of people who rebelled against Zi? So he advanced from the front and ran all the way to Dingtao."

Ju Shu's plan was rejected by Yuan Shao.

With a frown, Ju Su said again: "It's okay to advance head-on, but Su Su felt that the lord should issue a manifesto to Cao Cao and Sun Ce, and ask them to send troops to attack Yuan Fang's rear, so that they can be attacked from all sides. In this way, it can also take the opportunity to weaken the strength of Cao Cao and Sun Ce, which is a plan to kill two birds with one stone."

Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, and felt reasonable. He immediately wrote two letters and sent envoys to Yuzhou and Jiangdong.

...

Yingchuan County, Xu County.

In the lobby of the military palace, Cao Cao sat high above, and what he held in his hand was Yuan Shao's handwritten letter.

In the letter, Yuan Shao almost ordered Cao Cao to raise all his troops, attack Chenliu's line, and restrain Yuan Fang from the side.

"Hmph, Yuan Shuchu is becoming more and more arrogant. He really thinks I am his subordinate. Can he let him instruct?" Cao Cao snorted coldly and threw the letter onto the case unhappily.

At the bottom of the hall, Xun Yu sighed: "Yuan Shao unified Hebei and led 200,000 infantry and cavalry soldiers to the south. He was arrogant because he had a arrogant capital."

Cao Cao's anger subsided a little and he pondered without saying a word.

After a while, Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "If Wen felt that, should I listen to his instructions and send troops to attack Yuan Fang?"

"It is also an opportunity for us to fight a decisive battle between the father and son of the Yuan family. The lord might as well raise an army to go north, and take a look at Yuan Shao, and then watch the wall to reap profits."

"If Yuan Shao wins in a battle between the north and the south, the three states of Yuan and the two states of Yuan will collapse, and the lord can take the opportunity to go north, recover lost territory, and expand his strength."

"On the contrary, if Yuan Fang wins, the lord can quickly withdraw his troops and return to the south and make other plans."

The analysis seems to have made Cao Cao invincible.

Cao Cao weighed the pros and cons, nodded repeatedly, but said, "With Wen Ruozhi's opinion, who has more chances of winning in this battle?"

Xun Yu pondered silently, his eyes changed, his fingers secretly pinched, calculating the strength comparison between the two sides.

A long time later, Xun Yufang said: "Yuan Fang has the banner of the emperor's righteousness and has many good generals under his command, but the troops are too few. Although Yuan Shao was arrogant and his factions were fighting endlessly, the absolute strength of the 200,000 army was there. Based on all these, I think it is impossible for Yuan Fang to repeat the miracle of the past."

Although Xun Yu did not say it clearly, his meaning was already very obvious. He did not like Yuan Fang. He bet on Yuan Shao in this decisive battle between the north and the south.

Cao Cao thought something, and after a moment, he pointed slightly: "Wen Ruo's words are reasonable. Although Yuan Fang is a kid who is deceitful and defeats the strong for several times, this time, I don't believe that he can repeat the miracle. I just waited for him to defeat and seize the territory that belonged to me. After all, I am the only one who can really fight against Yuan Benchu ​​is me, Cao Mengde."

On the same day, Cao Cao replied with a letter to Yuan Shao, claiming that he would send troops to attack Yuan Fang from the southwest direction at his invitation.

...

A few days later, another letter from Yuan Shao was sent to Jiangdong.

In Moling City, Sun Ce had just moved his military residence to the city, and Yuan Shao's letters were sent to his brand new military residence.

After reading Yuan Shao's handwritten letter, Sun Ce smiled.

"Yuan Shao finally took action against his rebellious son. Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang, I don't believe it. You can turn the world around this time."

Sun Ce sneered and showed Yuan Shao's letter to the civil and military officials.
