Dingtian Machine House... Liu Xiu took the military newspaper handed over by Guo Jia, and a hint of joy flashed through his eyes, but it soon disappeared again, leaving only a faint anger. Ella Bookstore.26. He threw the newspaper on the desk and snorted: "What's going on with Yi Yi?"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly. Seeing that his father was in a bad mood, Liu He quickly picked up the military newspaper and read it. The military newspaper was written by Xia Yu, saying that they had raided Tadun and Mijia at Gaoyang Pavilion. After a night of fierce battle, they severely damaged the 20,000 Hu cavalry. They are currently sending people to chase and kill the fleeing Tadun, and Mijia and others.

"Dad, isn't this very good?" Liu He looked at his father in confusion. Ten thousand people defeated 20,000 people, cutting off Yuan Shao's retreat. Why is his father not satisfied with such a great contribution? What made him unhappy was Du Yi, but Xia Yu, who wrote the military newspaper, which made Liu He a little confused.

"I am greedy for righteousness and do not care about the soldiers." Guo Jia whispered: "Look at this military newspaper, there is no mention of General Guard's actions at all. The safest way to fight this kind of war should be to join forces with General Guard, so there will be much less casualties."

Liu He suddenly realized that she read the military newspaper again. Sure enough, there was no mention of the data on casualties. However, since it was a few hits and more battles, it was a fierce battle overnight, rather than a single blow, the casualties would definitely not be small, otherwise Xia Yu would definitely write the numbers on it. When Xia Yu wrote this military newspaper, it was already a day after the war, and the casualties numbers must have been counted. The reason why he didn't write it was because he was afraid that Liu Xiu would be unhappy and waited to catch Tadun and Mijia to talk about these two leaders.

"It is better for soldiers to compete for merit than to fight with fear." Yu Fan walked in with a teapot in one hand and two celadon cups in the other hand. He stood behind Liu He and glanced at the military newspaper, and said as if nothing had happened: "Generals, Xianbei people, and Wuhuan people are all natural knights, otherwise Yuan Shao would not have handed over such an important task to them. Now our army will annihilate it in one battle, and it will be enough to defeat the morale of the Yuan army with less. Even if a few more people die, it is worth it."

He sat down opposite Liu Xiu, put down the teacup, and carried the heavy teapot, but it was as light as nothing. His hand tilted, and the steaming boiling water flowed out, and it was accurately injected into the teacup. A tea fragrance overflowed, which made Liu Xiu’s spirits after all night. Yu Fan looked at the rolling tea leaves and said lightly: “Yu Yi has made such a great contribution, but he dared not be named. I guess he already knew that the general would be unhappy and knew that he was wrong in his heart. General, if you use this trick, it should not hurt the soldiers’ hearts."

Liu Xiu snorted helplessly, picked up the teacup, sniffed the teacup, and blew away the floating tea leaves. "You write them a commendation order."

"Here." Yu Fan responded. Meng Da next to him immediately packed up his pen and gave up his position. Although Yu Fanxin came, Meng Da was very clever. He could see that Yu Fan was talented, and Liu Xiu looked at Yu Fan differently. Therefore, although his qualifications were deeper than Yu Fan, he consciously lowered his posture.

Yu Fan took two sips of tea, sat in front of the case that Meng Da gave up, took the pen dipped ink from Meng Da, and kept waving his hand without adding a little bit of the text, and then waved it. He put the pen down, nodded with satisfaction first, and then gave Meng Da a wink. Meng Da was unhappy, but took it with his hands on his face with a smile on his face and carefully took it in front of Liu Xiu.

While drinking tea, Liu Xiu glanced at him with his eyes slanted and couldn't help but sigh. Yu Fan was so crazy and naturally had the capital to be crazy. This reward order was written so exciting and alert. I believe that Xia Yu and others would understand his mood at this moment after reading it. They would not do the same thing again.

"Just send it out like this."

"Here." Meng Da immediately arranged for someone to copy and archive the documents and sent them out as quickly as possible.

Yu Fan stood up suddenly, returned to Liu Xiu, sat down, lifted the teapot and added some water to Liu Xiu, then held the teacup in both hands, and smiled softly: "General, Yuan Shao's retreat has been cut off. If he still doesn't give up, he will definitely launch an attack as fast as possible, otherwise, he will retreat at the fastest speed. We should be prepared."

Liu Xiu looked at Yu Fan calmly. Of course he knew that these two results would be there. Although Yuan Shao was a little slow and indecisive, he was not the one who was willing to surrender easily. Now he had forced him to the dead end. He didn't know which plan Yuan Shao would choose, but he was ready for both. Yuan Shao went forward and fought with him in Ruyang area, and beat him with the prepared killing weapon to make him bleeding. If he wanted to retreat, Cao Cao would intercept his retreat and catch up and join him. In short, he could not decide Yuan Shao's choice, but he was sure that any of Yuan Shao's choices would have no good results.

For this decisive battle, the most likely stage of change has passed. If Yuan Shao had gone straight to the front, then there would be no good way for him to fight with Yuan Shao. Now that Yuan Shao has been delaying again and again, wasting precious time and forcing himself to a point where he has no way out, what else can he worry about?

"General, it's still far from foolproof." Yu Xiang frowned slightly and reminded bluntly: "General, don't forget that there is a big city like Hefei behind us that has not been taken down, and there are nearly 30,000 Yuan troops in Guangling. Once they enter the battlefield, our encirclement will easily be broken."

Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment. He was not unaware of these two points that Yu Fan reminded. But so far, the 30,000 Yuan troops in Guangling, Hefei, Lu'an and other cities were far away from the battlefield, and the nearest one was five hundred miles away. He also remained vigilant enough for those people. Once they took any action, he could react in the shortest time, and there should be no problem.

However, Yu Fan's subsequent words made Liu Xiu wake up from his dream: "General, they won't come, what if Yuan Shao goes?"

Liu Xiu was stunned for a while, then sat up and said anxiously: "Fengxiao, immediately summon the army to plan a group and analyze the possibility that Zhongxiang said."

Guo Jia also understood that they were unnaturally trapped in a misunderstanding of thinking, that is, Yuan Shao either attacked Pingyu or retreated to Jizhou, and the others might almost not exist, so they kept surveillance of the 30,000 Yuan troops in Guangling, and did not take further precautions before they made abnormal actions. Now Yu Fan reminded them that if Yuan Shao neither attacked Pingyu nor retreated to Jizhou, but turned to the southeast and joined the 30,000 Yuan troops? Cao Cao's main force had already arrived in Jiyin to block Yuan Shao's retreat. Liang Pei was empty and there was no danger to defend. If Yuan Shao led his troops eastward, the situation would be a big reversal.

The military plan team immediately became busy. Although Liu Xiu did not get up, his expression was a little uneasy. He realized that he had been walking too smoothly recently and had inadvertently become a arrogant soldier. The sad soldiers will win, but the arrogant soldiers will be defeated.

The military plan team has not yet provided a detailed analysis report. The latest military report has arrived, and Yuan Shao withdrew his troops. The direction of his retreat is Chen Liu.

Liu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Yu Fan: "It seems that Yuan Shao is not as smart as you think."

Yu Fan disagreed, pondered for a while, shook his head: "General, it's too early to draw a conclusion now."

...

As Guo Jia guessed, Xia Yu sent out the military report after counting the casualties data. For this reason, he delayed a day, and this day allowed Yuan Shao to seize the opportunity.

When he learned that 20,000 Hu cavalry was ambushed by Xia Yu and Cao Cao and the entire army was defeated, Yuan Shao could no longer maintain his demeanor, so he summoned the generals to discuss matters. Guo Tu, Shen Pei and others were also surprised when they heard this. The 20,000 Hu cavalry was eaten in one bite. What is this? Without the help of these Hu cavalry, the remaining Yuan army's combat power was greatly reduced. Faced with the siege of Liu Xiu and Cao Cao, they were seriously at a disadvantage in terms of military strength and momentum. If they did not make any decisions immediately, the next result would be annihilation of the entire army.

There was almost no objection to withdrawing, and this basic plan was recognized by everyone, but there were differences on how to withdraw. Guo Tu's suggestion was to withdraw as quickly as possible, and to defeat Cao Cao before Liu Xiu caught up. At present, Yuan Shao still has more than 50,000 troops. Although Liu Xiu's troops are slightly less, his strength is strong. This is the terrain he chose, so it is not suitable to fight him decisively. In comparison, although Cao Cao has about 50,000 and his strength is similar, he is still Tian Feng behind him, and with Tian Feng's support, it is more likely to break through Cao Cao's blockage. As long as he breaks through Cao Cao's blockage and joins Tian Feng's troops, he will have at least one foot in Yanzhou. This battle will not be considered a complete defeat.

But this suggestion was rejected by Shen Pei. Shen Pei asked back, "It's only 200 miles from here to Chenliu. Even if we march in a hurry, we can't pull Liu Xiu down. We escape in front and Liu Xiu chased him. Who can guarantee morale? Who can guarantee that after Chenliu, he still has the strength and morale to fight Cao Cao. There is a blocking front and a pursuit behind. It's good not to collapse. I still want to defeat Cao Cao? Once we can't break through quickly, Liu Xiu will catch up again and attack front and back. Do we still have a way out?

Guo Tu was speechless. He was so angry that he asked Shen Fei, what good way do you have?

Shen Pei sneered and stroked the short beard under his jaw: "Liu Xiu, Cao Cao was determined to attack us, how could we let them do what they wanted? Cao Cao rushed to Chenliu from Qiao Pei, marched for several days, and had just experienced a fierce battle. He thought he had not recovered his strength. He wanted to wait for his work, but we wanted to survive. The military strategy was full of things, so we avoided the facts and attacked the weak. We did not go to Chenliu. We first pretended to retreat to Chenliu, and then turned to the east, and went to Liang Kingdom and Jiyin. Although we took more roads, we could still return to Dongjun."

Yuan Shao thought for a moment and immediately understood the meaning of Shen Pei. He interrupted Guo Tu, who wanted to argue again, and immediately ordered the camp to be drawn, with Shen Pei and Wen Chou as the front army, Han Fu and Yan Liang as the rear army, all the troops set out and rushed towards Chen Liu. Shen Pei was resolute and led the front army to run wildly. After walking for a day, after crossing the sand water near Fugou, he suddenly turned east and drove straight into Liang Kingdom. Before everyone could react, he had already arrived at the city of Suiyang. (Welcome to your support, which is my greatest motivation.)
