Chapter 37 Undead Yuan Laoer

"Alas!" Cao Qian looked at Li Dian and others kneeling in front of him and also sighed. The eight-door golden lock array was broken again. Unexpectedly, even the State of Lu was taken down by Guan Yu, and his back road was also broken.

"First break the eight golden lock arrays, and then open the gate with elite soldiers mixed with prisoners. The two strategies are completed in one go, and they cooperate seamlessly with each other. Lord, it seems that there are also masters around Guan Yu!" After listening to Cao Hong's story, Guo Jia also sighed.

"What should I do now?" Cao Yan looked at the map on the table. To the east was Liu Bei's barracks. In the north, the back road of the State of Lu was cut off by Guan Yu. The state of Pei in the south was eager to capture it. Once it reached the point of glue, Liu Bei took advantage of the opportunity to enter and it would be suspended. Can you go back to Yanzhou through the Liang Kingdom in the west? At this time, Cheng Yu put forward his own opinion.

"Let's wait until the horse understands the news!" Cao's heart is also a little blocked. Compared with the declining morale of Cao Jun's account, Liu Bei's army had just received the news from Guan Yu, which was full of festive atmosphere for a while.

"This single blessing is really not simple. I have never seen my second brother praise so much." Liu Bei also laughed so much that he couldn't close his mouth. Shan Fu?" Zhao Feng was also stunned when he heard the words. Seeing this, Liu Bei quickly asked Jian Yong to read Guan Yu's letter aloud to everyone. The letter describes in detail how Shan Fu cracked Cao Hong's eight-door golden lock array and how he offered a plan to seize the State of Lu. Finally, Guan Yu also pointed out the current overall situation: the State of Lu had him and 30,000 defenders, and it was impossible for Cao Jian to flee north; the State of Liang in the west was guarded by Mi Fang and Wenpin, and there were also nearly 20,000 defenders. The rest of Liu Bei's Dazhai and Guan Hai in Peiguo City are well known to everyone. In a word, now Cao Shen has been surrounded on all sides. When he runs out of food, the army's heart collapses, and he can be destroyed in one drum.

"Shan Fu is really a great talent!" Liu Bei also sighed, and then asked the people in the account, "Do you know where this person comes from?" After a while, everyone whispered, but they saw Lu Su coming forward and said, "Jian Fu is a pseudonym. This person's surname is Xu Shu Zhao Zhi, a person from Yingchuan. In the past, it was said that he once killed people for his friends, so he traveled around the world under a pseudonym.

Zhao Feng didn't expect that Lu Su would also know the origin of Xu Shu, but on the other hand, since Cheng Yu could know, it was not surprising that Lu Su knew it, so he didn't need to be foresight. After Lu Su introduced Xu Shu, he told Liu Bei that Xu Shu's mother was still in Yingchuan. In order to prevent Cao Yan from taking him hostage, he should take him up as soon as possible to prevent future trouble. Liu Bei also had no consent when he heard the words and quickly sent someone to deal with it.

The next thing is simpler. Liu Bei and four groups of people stuck Cao at the core. Except for Liu Bei's camp, the rest of the three sides are cities, each of which is guarded by at least 20,000 horses. Cao Yan is eager to capture it. Although Liu Bei's journey is a camp, the number of people is the largest. Cao Jun wanted to rush out of the encirclement several times, but they were repulsed one after another. This delay is more than a month, and the time has gradually come from early autumn to late autumn. Cao Jun not only ran out of military food, but also lacked clothes to keep out of the cold.

"This Cao has been forced into a desperate situation?" Zhao Feng looked at Cao Jun's camp not far away, and he felt a little strange. I remember that in this period in history, Liu Bei was almost defeated by Cao, but now Cao was forced to be desperate by Liu Bei. However, it's normal to think about it. At this time, Cao Shen's territory, military strength or talent reserve is still very different from his peak. In addition, Cao Jian underestimated Liu Bei's strength, and this time he suffered a big loss.

"Take your life while you are sick!" It has always been Zhao Feng's style to hit the water dog with a stick. With this good opportunity, he will naturally strangle Lao Cao, a strong enemy, in the cradle. After Zhao Feng implemented agricultural improvement in Xuzhou, there was no shortage of military grain. At this moment, under the transfer of Mi Zhu, a cart of grain and cold-proof clothing arrived at the front line. At Zhao Feng's suggestion, Liu Bei selected hundreds of sergeants to eat and drink in front of Cao's camp every day. Zhao Feng also ingeniously made more than a dozen earth trumpets, making some loud soldiers shout loudly about how much food and clothes they have here. The effect of this is obvious. Every day, hundreds of Cao soldiers sneak up to surrender, and the number of them is increasing.

"Hey hey! Even if you are a poisoner, Guo Jia is still a complete strategy. Without food, I think how arrogant you can be. At this time, Tanma had already figured out that Wancheng Zhang Xiu had already surrendered to Cao Wei. The latter had no worries, so he dared to go south and fell into the quagmire. Zhao Feng has nothing else to do these days. He just looks at Cao Jun's camp. Every time he doesn't look at it for a long time, he sees someone sneaking to surrender. Or get happy and taste a few bowls of Xuzhou old wine with Zhang Fei to dispel the cold.

Just as Zhao Feng estimated that Cao Jun was about to collapse, an unexpected news came: Yuan Shu of Huainan became emperor!

"What? Mr. Yuan has been sold as emperor? As soon as Zhao Feng heard the news, he went to Liu Bei's account to discuss countermeasures. At this time, everyone was already there. In the past, the ancestors of the Han Dynasty were only a pavilion in Si, but there was a world; now there are 400 years, the number of gas has been exhausted, and the sea is boiling. The surname Yuan comes from Chen. After Chen Nai Shun. The fire is carried out by earth, and it is in line with its luck. And the four generations and three princes of the Yuan family, the people returned; therefore, the people of heaven are obedient, and the position is ninety-five. There is also a folk saying: Those who are in the generation of the Han Dynasty should be painted high. I, Yuan Shu's word highway, is in line with his advice. There is also a national jade seal. If you don't want to be a king, it's against the way of heaven. Therefore, today, the name is Zhong Shi, and the officials of Taiwan Province are established. They ride the dragon and phoenix, worship the northern and southern suburbs, and set up Feng Fang's daughter as the queen, and set up the son as the East Palace. This edict orders the world, and the states quickly submit, otherwise, they will fight with a large army!" Jian Yong finished reading Yuan Shu's so-called edict, and then told everyone that Yuan Shu had sent General Ji Ling to lead 100,000 troops to invade Xuzhou. Zhang Liao, the Guangling garrison, could not resist. Gao Shun had sent Wu Dun to lead 20,000 people to support, but the situation was not very good.

"You cut your head on your back!" Zhao Feng also couldn't laugh or cry in his heart: he had been looking forward to Yuan Shu's claim to the throne, so that Liu Bei had a good reason to beat Huainan to expand his strength. I don't want this man to be too late, but when Liu Bei is about to play with Cao's death, isn't it obvious to help Lao Cao? With Liu Bei's surname, how can he tolerate who is so blatantly usurping the country of his old Liu family? He will definitely send troops.

Sure enough, Liu Bei was silent when he saw everyone. First of all, he said, "Yuan Shu is rebellious. He claims to be the emperor and offends me in Xuzhou. I swear to ask for it. I mean, there will be a truce with Cao Xian first, and then settle this account after killing Yuan Shu.

"That's the only way!" Everyone couldn't say any individual opinions, so they could only secretly curse Yuan Shu for not being at the right time. At this time, Zhao Feng thought for a moment and added, "Master, since it's a peace discussion, why don't we take the opportunity to knock Cao Yan?"

"Knock?" Liu Bei couldn't change his mind for a while.

"That's right, now in order to deal with Yuan Shu, we have to let Cao go first. But we can't let him go for nothing. Let's get some benefits!" Zhao Feng is also angry with Lao Cao's bad luck. How can he be willing if he doesn't hit him hard?

"But now that Yuan Shubing has committed crimes against Xuzhou, we should have withdrawn from the army early!" Liu Bei was a little hesitant.

"There are General Zhang Liao and 20,000 reinforcements brought by General Wu Dun in Guangling County. Everything will be fine for a while. But Cao Wei's army is short of food, and I believe he can't wait more than us. Zhao Feng smiled confidently. Liu Bei was also thoughtful when he heard the words, and then he and Zhang Fei beside him also smiled. It's really a person who has done business! Zhao Feng sighed.

Besides, in Cao Yan's camp, Cao Yan, who was almost crazy, almost jumped up excitedly after hearing the news of Yuan Shu's claim to emperor. Lord, now that Yuan Shu is the emperor, Liu Bei will definitely withdraw his army. Why don't we take the opportunity to make peace with Liu Bei, fight against Yuan Shu first, and then make a plan? Guo Jia stepped forward at this time and said.

"That's right, that's right, what Feng Xiao said is very true. Who would like to contact Liu Bei? Cao Yan also rubbed his hands excitedly. Jia Xu, who was beside him, suddenly said, "Master, I believe that Liu Bei is also ready to withdraw his troops. If we wait for the Lord to make peace, wouldn't it be inevitable to be extorted by him?"

"I don't know what you said, but we have run out of food in our army, and the sergeants can only eat two bowls of porridge a day. If we don't make peace, we can't afford to delay!" Cao Yan smiled bitterly, and Jia Xu was also silent when he heard the words.

"In this case, my lord, I would like to meet Liu Bei and discuss the withdrawal of the military." Liu Ye came forward at this time. Cao Qian also knew that Liu Ye was a relative of the Han Dynasty. Liu Bei wanted to give him some face, so that the effect would be much better, and he agreed now.

Don't say that Liu Bei is depressed, Cao is excited. There is a person who is more depressed than Liu Bei. He is Yuan Shao in Jizhou City.

Yuan Shao is sitting on the top at this time, holding an "edict" of Yuan Shu in his hand, and the anger in his heart is beyond words. At this time, there was a large group of counselors and generals standing next. They had always disagreed, but this time they were extremely unified: that is, they could not recognize Yuan Shu's edict. Even if it is too far away to fight now, at least you should send a message to express your position.

"Yuan Highway is looking for a dead road!" This is Xu You's words, or as mean as ever, but everyone agrees. Yuan Shao is also uncomfortable now. Although he is the eldest son, he is a concubine. Yuan Shu is the legitimate son, so he has been spoiled more than himself since he was a child. Among other things, he didn't become a Bohai Taishou until he was in his twenties, but Yuan Shu became a Nanyang Taishou in his twenties. If it hadn't been for the wide range of friends, bold and polite virtuous corporal, how would it have been today's achievement!

It's even better now. You just became the emperor like this. What do you want me, my big brother, to do? As long as people in the world have a little brain, they will feel that I can't escape from you. Take a step back, even if you really become the emperor and let me kneel down when I see you in the future, so what's the point of being a big brother? The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more he hated it. After a few changes in his face, he also said fiercely, "I'm going to scold this bastard. Even if I can't help Cao A'ao and Liu Daye, I will also cheer for them!"

"Father, why don't we take advantage of the war between Liu Bei and Cao Wei now, send troops to Yanzhou to destroy Cao Wei, and then kill Liu Bei, so that the country is the Yuan family!" A fierce-faced young man beside him suddenly said that he was Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Shao. As soon as he said this, everyone exclaimed.

"Master, this must be done! Now that Yuan Shu is the emperor, people and gods are angry together. If the lord sent troops to Yanzhou and attacked the capital of the emperor, everyone in the world would be the lord of a rebel minister and thief, and they would fight for it together!" The counselor hurriedly advice. He said.

"I know!" There is something to say in Yuan Shao's words. He knows that Feng Ji's words are true, and he knows that Feng Ji's words are to attack Yuan Tan, because Feng Ji supports Yuan Shang, Yuan Shao's third son. Now the two princes are fighting each other very hard for the position of the heirs. Xiansi, you should also use your brain more and don't be brave all day long. I'm about to marry Miss Zhen. Be more stable, understand?" Yuan Shao knocked on both sides.

"I understand!" Yuan Tan also bowed to his body and was taught. He thought of Zhen Jiang, who was charming, and couldn't help throbbing.

It is not to mention that the dark tide in Jizhou is surging at this time. Under the city of Peiguo, Liu Ye, the messenger of Cao's army, has arrived in Liu Bei's army. According to everyone's suggestion, the negotiation did not require Liu Bei to take action in person, and Liu Bei also handed it over to Zhao Feng, who volunteered to handle it.

So, when Liu Ye stepped into the big account, what was waiting for him was a young man in his twenties, which surprised him a little.
