Chapter 422: Peace in the world? Set the world? Want to throw everything!
——"Do you know my master?"
——"I call Mrs. Yan aunt, and Mr. Tong is also someone I admire, but..."
The conversation between Lu Lingqi and Yuan Fang was very fast.
Yuan Fang deliberately sold it out.
"But what?" Lu Lingqi was really curious.
"It's not good for you to know too much..." Yuan Fang took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Lingqi's hand. "It's very important for the troubled girl to hand it over to Mr. Tong... If it's too late, I'm afraid Mr. Tong and Mrs. Yan
I will regret it for the rest of my life!"
this…
Hearing this, Lu Lingqi's expression suddenly changed. What else did she want to ask?
Who would have thought that Yuan Fang had already turned around and tried to leave.
How could Lu Lingqi let him go? She immediately raised her spear and was about to stop him. She never thought... Yuan Fang seemed to have eyes on his back. He dodged Lu Lingqi's spear like a ghost...
"Perhaps, I am not Miss Lu's opponent, but Miss Lu can't stop me... If you have any questions, let Mr. Tong and Mrs. Yan ask me!"
Among the Eight Wonders of the Water Mirror, only two "wonders" are versatile in both civil and military affairs. Demon King Yuan Fang is one of them, and the other...
The words just fell!
Yuan Fang has disappeared in front of Lu Lingqi.
call…
Lu Lingqi breathed a sigh of relief. She subconsciously felt that this "Yuan Fang"'s kung fu was not weak, but she didn't know to what extent!
Thinking about this... Lu Lingqi's mood was a bit complicated. She weighed the bamboo slips in her hands and found that the bamboo slips were getting heavier.
If there is one thing that makes her regret her life, it is that she could not save her father from Cao Cao and Lu Yu...
Then... what could be the thing that would make Master and Mistress regret for the rest of their lives?
For a moment, a big question mark appeared in the middle of Lu Lingqi's sharp eyebrows!
…
…
South Bank of the Yellow River.
The sound of rain gurgled, and the spears, swords and halberds were washed away by the rain, giving off a cold light. More than 400,000 bright and neat armors showed the domineering and majesty of Yuan Jun!
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the birds and eagles had long been hiding in the woods, but the footsteps of countless Yuan troops marching broke the tranquility here.
Countless birds were flying in all directions, and even the goshawk was frightened and could not help but scream!
Four hundred and fifty thousand Yuan troops have crossed the Yellow River.
Yuan Shaozhi was very proud and was about to give the order...to attack Yanjin immediately, but...just at this moment, a group of scout horses came galloping towards him.
——"Report...report..."
——"Cao's army retreated...Cao's army and his people retreated in batches from Yanjin to Guandu! The people walked very slowly and could only travel dozens of miles a day!"
The scouts reported the information they found.
Hearing this…
Zhang He bowed his hands and said, "Mr. Yuan, this is a God-given opportunity... Should Lu Yu abandon the city and move his people to Guandu, why should he retreat in batches and concentrate his forces... If we send cavalry to pursue us now, we will definitely win a complete victory!"
As soon as this statement came out...
Yuan Shao nodded lightly and was immediately ready to give the order to send troops to chase and kill him!
This has two benefits…
One is to annihilate the soldiers and horses of Cao's army escorting the people and eliminate their effective strength.
Second...cut off Cao Jun's retreat and separate the Yanjin Walled City from the Guandu Walled City!
It’s not a bad move!
"Pass the order..."
Yuan Shao blurted out two words, but...before he could say the next words, he suddenly thought of something.
etc…
In the past, Wen Chou was chasing Cao's troops who were retreating with their people, and then he carelessly underestimated the enemy and fell into a treacherous trick. He was killed by Cao's army led by Long Xiaoqi. Even Wen Chou himself lost his life!
Today's situation is such a familiar picture...
It’s still the familiar way of fleeing with the people, and it’s still the familiar way of luring the enemy to attack!
this…
Immediately, Yuan Shao's eyes narrowed.
"Wait a minute to attack... Lu Yu must have an ambush along the way. This is his plan to lure the enemy deeper!"
Yuan Shao groaned, seeming quite proud of himself. "How could I, Yuan Shao, fall for this kid's trick... Humph... I have ordered the three armies to set up camp on the spot. I want to see what tricks he, Lu Yu, wants to play!"
In the first two times... whether Yan Liang attacked Baima or Wen Chou attacked Nanban, Yuan Shao suffered the disadvantage of a sudden attack.
This time...he learned a lesson and planned to slow down the attack!
Just then.
——"Report...report..."
Another detective came galloping,
——"One thousand meters outside Yanjin City, three canopy umbrellas were put up. Lu Yu was sitting under the umbrella, admiring the rain and reading inscriptions. Cao Ying... Cao Ying sent someone to invite Mr. Yuan, saying that it was Lu Situ who had something to say.
Invite Mr. Yuan to speak under the canopy umbrella and ask Mr. Yuan if he dares to go!"
Huo…
Canopy umbrella, Lu Yu, enjoying the rain, product inscription!
this…
Yuan Shao rolled his eyes.
Xu You suggested, "Mr. Yuan, this Lu Yu has always been scheming. He invited Mr. Yuan to come under the umbrella to have a talk. If he can't protect everything, he has evil intentions... Mr. Yuan didn't need to pay attention to him. He immediately sent his troops into two groups, and rushed to Yanjin all the way to kill this Lu Yu.
Capture and chase Cao's army who are fleeing with their people... This move will surely lead to a complete victory!"
"No…"
Who would have thought that Yuan Shao, who was originally sitting in Wuyu's carriage, suddenly stood up!
He stood at the front of the car...looking into the distance, looking at the particularly eye-catching three-fold canopy umbrella outside Yanjin City in front of him...
You can faintly see a lot of raindrops falling from around the canopy umbrella, and the rain on the ground makes a crackling sound in a continuous stream!
Yuan Shao sighed with emotion: "Is this Yinlin? Haha... I heard that Yinlin has revealed secrets since he was born. He has tried every strategy and has not yet failed! There is a saying in Yuedan's Commentary - He who wins Yinlin can bring peace to the world, haha!"
Speaking of this, Yuan Shao sneered and continued to sigh: "In today's battle, I, Yuan Shao, will definitely win a great victory, and Yinlin's 'myth' of never being defeated will also be overturned! In the same way, today's battle will be recorded in history.
It was passed down to later generations and became the topic and focus of discussion in the streets and alleys of the Thirteen Prefectures of the Han Dynasty after tea and dinner!"
"Besides, our army is mighty and powerful, and we have a sure chance of victory... I want to defeat Yinlin in an upright manner, and let the world know that Yinlin may be able to bring peace to the world! But only I, Yuan Shao, can rule the world, open up the river of history, and throw the universe away!"
Speaking of excitement…
Yuan Shao pointed to Lu Yu under the canopy umbrella: "I rewarded the rain, and I also tasted the tea with Yin Lin. People in the province say that I, Yuan Shao, bully the small, do not have martial ethics, and dare not keep the appointment!"
Well…
Hearing this, Xu You was stunned!
What is this?
What? What? What? What are you... doing?
There was a black line on Xu You's forehead...
When the two armies are fighting, how can we talk about martial virtue? We haven't captured Xu yet? The world has not yet been decided? Yuan Shao...just...just...is about to make a false name.
Xu You was almost suffering from embarrassment, but as a counselor under Yuan Shao, he knew that his lord's thoughts were childish and simple...
But he still couldn't refute...
Otherwise... Tian Feng's imprisonment and Ju Shou's dismissal of military power are lessons from the past.
Well…
Xu You handed over his hand against his will. "Yuan Gong Mingjian! This move will be passed down in history!"
Sure enough, his words just came out of his mouth.
The flattery of Guo Tu, Yuan Ying's number one flatterer and the great "spy" identified by Lu Yu, has appeared.
——"On the eve of the war, Mr. Yuan was fearless and sipping tea with the cunning Yinlin and enjoying the rain. Mr. Yuan's "martial virtues" were spread throughout the world! Mr. Yuan's courage will also be passed down through the ages, for future generations to look up to and worship!"
hehe…
Hearing this, Xu You said "haha", he was really speechless.
He is really a clever little guy, he was the first to take pictures of this horse...
This is the culture of Yuan Ying, this is the way of survival and promotion of Yuan Ying... The sound of flattery is continuous... The louder the flattery, the more stable the status!
Just thought of this.
"Hahaha..." Yuan Shao's loud laughter resounded.
It seems that Guo Tu's flattery was very useful to him!
"How many people are around Lu Yu under the canopy umbrella?" Yuan Shao asked.
"There is only one person, Dian Wei, who is called the 'ancient evil'! However, this person is still a hundred steps away from the Huagai Umbrella!"
Hmm…
Hearing this, Yuan Shao rolled his eyes. When he heard the name "Dian Wei", he felt a little timid...
But when I heard "a hundred steps away", I felt a lot more confident, and immediately said: "It is said that General Zhang He went with me and stayed a hundred steps away. What he Yinlin did, I, Yuan Shao, did too.
Do it, this is ‘Wu De’!”
Speaking of which…
Yuan Shao got off the Wuyu carriage and got on his horse...
Zhang He heard the words and went to lead Yuan Shao's horse in person. The two of them headed towards the canopy umbrella located one thousand meters below Yanjin City. The rest of the Euphorbia soldiers also followed them, but when they reached a thousand meters away from the canopy umbrella, one person
One stopped!
This was specially ordered by Yuan Shao...
reputation!
Martial arts!
He has always been a person who cherishes his reputation and values martial ethics.
Live an upright life and use military force in an upright manner!
"Da da..."
The sound of horse hooves trampled on the water. Five hundred steps later, Zhang He stopped and looked at each other with Dian Wei, who was not far away.
Seeing that Dian Wei had no intention of stepping forward, he simply didn't step forward either.
At this moment, Dian Wei narrowed his eyes slightly...
actually.
When Lu Yu ordered this to be done, he was also muttering in his heart, fearing that Yuan Shao "didn't respect martial ethics" and sent cavalry to rush over directly... If that happened, he Dian Wei planned to let Lu Yu ride him and run back to Yanjin City quickly!
But... I didn't expect it.
Yuan Shao is not a bad person, at least he is quite "shameful"!
Of course…
How did he know that Yuan Shao came from a well-known family and the most important thing was pomp and fame? It is precisely that people from such a well-known family do not understand what pragmatism is!
However, it seems... this person is so good at dealing with it, even though he knows it's a trap, he still falls for it if something goes wrong!
…
…
Jizhou, Yecheng!
On a light rainy night...in the Xu family's mansion, barbecue was sizzling on the stove, and steam was rising from the warm wine.
Xu Yuan took out the hot wine from the wine bottle, poured it into a cup, cut off a piece of barbecue, and put it on the plate of the "lame and mute".
"'Mas', come eat meat and drink wine...drink more!"
——"Uh huh..."
Xu Yuan responded with a hesitating hoarse voice and skilled body language.
Yes, this "lame and mute" is Sima Yi...
At this time, Xu Yuan personally poured wine for Sima Yi. He was quite happy and dancing... extremely excited.
"Talent, Mas, you are a talent!"
"Your keen eye for horses can help our Xu family earn millions more!"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Xu Yuan couldn't stop laughing.
Previously, because he felt that Sima Yi knew horses, he specially arranged for him to participate in the Xu family's horse business. What surprised Xu Yuan was that this Sima Yi's ability to "look at horses" was extraordinary!
Suddenly, 30 of the best horses were selected from 500 horses and sold to a horse dealer for ten times the price. The horse dealer did not question it at all. This single move... allowed the Xu family to make a profit from it.
Got millions of dollars!
You know, the price of horses fluctuated greatly during the Han Dynasty!
From the earliest price of a few thousand yuan to the later period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the price of one million yuan per horse increased by more than dozens of times. Although the price of horses has dropped somewhat, it is only tens of thousands per horse. However, due to the decisive battle between Cao and Yuan,
The horse market is extremely popular, especially good horses... One horse is sold for hundreds of thousands, which is not a big problem, and the price is high but the market is not!
It's a pity that Xu Yuan didn't understand this. He sold good horses and ordinary horses at the same price, and lost more than millions of dollars out of thin air!
It's no wonder that Xu Yuan became happy after "Sima Yi" got involved in the horse business.
Simply...
This "Mas" is like a money tree, it's like... I found a treasure!
"Ha ha…"
Xu Yuan cut off another piece of roasted venison and handed it to Sima Yi.
As the saying goes - A gentleman is far away from the kitchen.
But...as long as the money is in place, let alone being a gentleman, it won't be a big problem even if you let the ghosts push you around!
Sima Yi pretended to be mute and naturally did not dare to speak. He just nodded his head and looked frightened and grateful... And the more he acted like this, the more Xu Yuan was reassured!
"From now on, in our Xu family's business, this horse will be left to you!" Xu Yuan smiled and patted Sima Yi on the shoulder. "I can't treat you badly. Our uncle is a celebrity in front of Mr. Yuan. He will follow our Xu family.
Mix it up, yours
The future, your wealth is limitless! When your uncle comes back, I will let him make the decision to marry you a wife. Qiuxiang, who will serve my young master, will be good. From now on, you will have a family! Haha, haha
Ha ha…"
A money tree...
Naturally, Xu Yuan had to use money to win over him. Who gave this "Mas" the ability to read horses?
Hehe, this thousand-mile horse has to be looked at by Bole before it can be sold at the corresponding value!
Sima Yi was still grateful...
Of course, he could feel... that he was increasingly trusted by Xu Yuan.
In addition, Sima Yi also spied on some of the so-called "black accounts" of the Xu family through the horse sale.
You know, the five hundred horses Xu Yuan sold were bought by Yuan Shaohua from Wuhuan with a lot of money!
In fact, a total of 1,200 horses...
But the Xu family had some skills and asked the civil servants to quote nearly double the price. Therefore, 700 horses were sent to the armed forces as usual, and the other 500 horses were made by the Xu family.
The so-called - open a wheat mill with the picked wheat!
For the Xu family, this is a business with no capital and huge profits!
certainly…
None of this is important. What is important is that Sima Yi was involved in the horse sale from the beginning, except for the last part...that is, when the general ledger was being calculated, it was Xu Yuan who took action in person, in an inn belonging to the Xu family!
In other words, there is a mystery hidden in this inn!
Sima Yi planned to investigate again. If the Xu family's "black account" is really in this inn, then... the net can be closed!
"Do it well...do it well!"
Xu Yuan didn't know what Sima Yi was thinking. Similarly, Sima Yi's hidden skills were as high as those of Liu Bei... How could Xu Yuan see through this?
So humble and forbearing, if it were Yang Xiu...
That is absolutely impossible!
But... Sima Yi is such a person who can "endure" and "hide"!
In addition, he is still a person with goals, and he must do this...
In this troubled world, he must do this if he wants to survive!
Holding the wine glass tightly, Sima Yi couldn't calm down his emotions for a long time, so he drank the wine in one gulp...
Use this to silently express the throbbing feelings in your heart!
…
…
North of the Yellow River, in front of Yanjin City.
Yuan Shao rode his horse towards the canopy umbrella, and a dialogue that attracted the attention of the two armies, attracted worldwide attention, and was passed down through history and passed down through the ages... was about to take place!
At the same time, Liu Bei, who had crossed the Yellow River, also saw the opportunity and planned to escape!
Before leaving, he specially walked to a high place... to look at the Yanjin City and the scene under the canopy umbrella...
At this moment, Yuan Shao and Lu Yu have already started talking!
And the same...Liu Bei could clearly see that the two of them were laughing...laughing very happily!
call…
Exhale first.
Then, Liu Bei shook his head.
I can't help but sigh.
"Until now, Yuan Benchu still hasn't realized the horror of 'Yinlin'!"
Speaking of this, Liu Bei's eyebrows tightened even more.
"Yinlin's reputation alone made him so afraid that he did not dare to chase Cao Jun who was fleeing with his people. Yinlin's invitation alone made him dare to attend the meeting. There are so many conspiracies and tricks hidden in this. Yuan Benchu... Yuan Benchu still knows nothing
Know!"
Shaking his head, shaking his head helplessly...
Let the rain continue to fall along the bamboo hat.
Just then.
"Tap..."
Continuous footsteps resounded, and countless soldiers stood behind Liu Bei!
Coming soon…
——"Does Xuande want to leave?"
——"Now that Xuande has left? I'm afraid he no longer belongs to Mr. Yuan, right?"
A sharp tone resounded.
This voice was very familiar to Liu Bei. In the past, he was about to jump off the cliff, but was stopped by this voice.
——Xu You!
This Yuan Shao was regarded as the "strategist" and Yuan Shao's most trusted advisor - Xu You!
Immediately, Liu Bei stood up and dismounted...
"It turns out to be Ziyuan..."
Xu You took a step forward and pointed at Yuan Shao and Lu Yu who were already talking under the canopy umbrella, "Xuande, I think it's ridiculous. Just after we crossed the Yellow River, Mr. Yuan made two big mistakes!"
——"The first is to talk to Yinlin in front of the two armies! Delay the opportunity and miss the opportunity!"
——"The second is to let you Liu Bei and Liu Xuande go! Xuande... Let me ask you, once you go to Runan, you will not come back, and you will not be attached to Yuan Gong anymore, right? Yes or no!"
"
call…
Is this a proposition?
Liu Bei knew Xu You's sharp vision and did not dare to hide it, but he also did not dare to answer.
"Ha ha…"
Xu You smiled sadly. "Xuande, I just advised your lord not to meet Yinlin, and I also advised your lord not to let you go! What a pity, what Xu You didn't expect was that my words from the bottom of my heart, my lord
Not only did he not adopt it, but he scolded me for judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart. What else did he say... We must be upright, we must talk about martial ethics, Xuande, tell me... is it ridiculous or not?"
"Haha... I, Xu You, have become a villain, but you, Liu Bei, and that Yin Lin have become gentlemen? My lord's observation of people and things has once again proved... proved that he is a fatuous master, and once again proved that he will be perfect
Avoiding all the correct answers! It proves once again that the only thing that can survive in Yuan Ying is that 'flattery' short-sighted villain!"
call…
Hearing this, Liu Bei exhaled again, his eyes condensed.
Xu You talked about this, and from his eyes, you can see that he was full of unwillingness, confusion, hesitation, and helplessness!
Liu Bei, who is good at hiding his heart, is also good at spying on people's hearts. He felt Xu You's dissatisfaction with the current situation!
Simply, Liu Bei said frankly.
"Brother Ziyuan, I have been living in Jizhou for half a year. My biggest emotion is that Yuan Shao cannot achieve great things! If I continue to stay here, not only will I do nothing, but my life will be in danger! So I must leave here! Only in this way,
Only then can I fulfill the emperor's edict and raise the flag to destroy Cao Cao!"
"Similarly... I used to work under Cao Cao, and I also worked under Yuan Shao for the second half of the year. I can see him clearly clearly, and the gap between him and Cao Cao! Yuan Shao's rise depends on his family background and reputation.
, and Cao Cao’s rise depends on talents and Yinlin!”
"Now that Cao and Yuan are fighting in a decisive battle, although on the surface, Yuan Shao takes two cities! But in fact, Yuan Shao has already lost 100,000 troops and two generals in less than a month! Yuan Shao did not take this as a warning, and still
He is so arrogant... This is the most terrifying part of Yinlin's plan! If the fight continues like this, I, Liu Bei, can be sure that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will be defeated in a decisive battle, just because... just because of Yinlin!"
Hmm...Yinlin?
When he mentioned the key point, Liu Bei's words stopped abruptly, but Xu You frowned. "What does Xuande mean by Yinlin? Why...why would Yuan's army be destroyed by Yinlin in the decisive battle between Cao and Yuan?"
Speaking of which!
Liu Bei's eyes were still looking under the canopy umbrella!
Then, he stretched out his arms and let the rain beat on his sleeves. It seemed that... only the "tick-tock" sound of the rain could interpret his mood and state of mind at the moment!
