Three days later.

Later, General Yuan Shu's reply was sent to Wuguan. After Yuan Yao read it, his face finally showed a kind smile as if he was relieved.

His father accepted his suggestion and was willing to take in Lu Bu and provide several counties such as Xinye south of Nanyang to station him to resist Liu Biao in Xiangyang to protect the rear defense line for his own side.

After receiving the reply, Yuan Yao immediately began to arrange the matter.

When Lu Bu led more than a hundred cavalry to Xinye, because Lu Bu's reputation was too great... Yuan Shu was naturally not at ease and handed over Nanyang to him alone to defend, so he sent his companion Yuan Yin to lead an army to station in Anzhong.

On the one hand, it was to fight against Liu Biao's attack with Lu Bu's army, and on the other hand, it was also to monitor it to prevent Lu Bu from robbing the counties and counties.

...

The plan to layout Nanyang was arranged and temporarily came to an end. Yuan Yaoqi set off again to head west.

On the way west, Yuan Yao presented a letter to Cui Zhouping with both hands, and then said solemnly: "Sir, you have served as the governor of Xihe. I want to have some understanding of the customs and customs of Xizhou."

"Yao begs sir, you should take this letter to Chang'an first. On the one hand, you should investigate the complex dynamics of Chang'an's forces, and on the other hand, you should also pay a visit to Jia Xu. If our army wants to persuade the Xiliang army to leave the customs, it may be necessary to help this person."

Upon hearing this, Cui Zhouping received the order, but then showed a doubtful look and frowned and said, "Young Master, who is Jia Xu? Do you value it so much?"

Even though Jia Xu had no choice but to be very good at judging human nature and psychology, his reputation has not yet been widely circulated among prefectures and counties, so Cui Zhouping naturally did not hear it.

This is also a disadvantage for the Kansai people.

People in Kanto will do "Yuedan Review" and so on. Once they are favored by respected people as famous, their career path will be much smoother in the future.

"This man has the talent of conquering the world and making perfect plans. He is very good at judging human nature. This time, the Xiliang army can counterattack Chang'an, and he depends entirely on his help."

After briefly analyzing Jia Xu, Yuan Yao suddenly looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Sir, Yao thinks that all the generals of Xiliang are a group of short-sighted people, and only this person is truly far-sighted and sees the overall situation of the world."

"So, Yao hopes that Mr. Yao can make friends with Jia Xu first."

"Yes! Jun should give his all."

Although Jia Xu is not famous, Yuan Yaoyan has fallen into many things recently. At this moment, he has not felt suspicious and firmly agreed to Yuan Yao's request.

On the other hand, why did Yuan Yao send Cui Zhouping to?

First, except for Cui Zhouping, my subordinates are all crazy people, so how can they do this?

Secondly, Yuan Yao also vaguely discovered that his relationship with Cui Zhouping had reached a bottleneck, and perhaps he was only one step away from recognizing his master. In response to this situation, he felt that he could still give some things appropriately to him to complete.

Of course, the most critical factor lies in Cui Zhouping's family background.

His father Cui Lie served as the third duke in the court, and his family still had a strong influence. He sent Cui Zhouping to him and could also use his family to inquire about the current situation in Guanzhong.

A blind fostering scholar has no future.

The essence of raising a scholar lies in the fact that scholars can share their worries at critical moments.

Cui Jun received the order, so he slowly rode his horse to the west first.

...

Just as Yuan Yao and his party continued westward, the main force of the Yuan army had basically recovered several counties in Yuzhou. After Yuan Shu came in person, he led his army northward into Chenliu and stationed in Yongqiu.

On this day, the later general Yuan Shu was extremely happy and even summoned all the civil and military officials under his command to discuss military affairs.

Yuan Shu was in the main position and checked the letter with everyone.

Then he smiled and said, "Everyone, it seems that our army is really the destiny of heaven!"

"Not only can we easily pacify several counties in Yuzhou, but also various Heishan Army troops and the Xiongnu Yufuluo sent envoys to surrender, informing us that we wanted to help our army attack Yanzhou from the north from the Yellow River."

Yuan Shu's mood is undoubtedly extremely comfortable at this moment.

Isn’t it beautiful to conquer cities and land while surrounding the city and surrounding the land, and then there are forces from all sides coming to rely on it?

After everyone saw it, General Liu Xiang suddenly stood up and bowed to congratulate him: "Our army led its troops north for less than half a month, so we even set up counties, and now we have to make friends with all parties."

"As the situation continues, the lord will definitely occupy all the states in the Central Plains for ten months to seek hegemony. Just Cao Cao and others are just mantis armed with a chariot. How can they stop the lord's hegemony?"

When he said this, Liu Xiang glanced at Yan Xiang on the side without hesitation.

He knew that Yan Xiang had been consistent with his son Yuan Yaozheng since the beginning of the war and resolutely resisted sending troops to attack the Central Plains. Now... he has achieved such a great victory, so a general like him who advocated the Northern Expedition naturally has more say.

Not only that, because Yuan Yao's previous military reform general and lieutenant general and collar were replaced, he eliminated all his direct lines. He hated Yuan Yao to the core, so he naturally counted Yan Xiang as Yuan Yao's group.

After saying that, Liu Xiang laughed inadvertently, "Young Master is still too young and you can't think about everything carefully. If the lord really followed the advice at that time, how could he have the great victory today?"

This statement seems ordinary, but it implies that Yuan Yao is cowardly and incompetent, and warns Yuan Shu to immediately remove him from the military.

After the words came, Liang Gang and Le were waiting for a force to agree.

It caused great dissatisfaction because Yuan Yao carried out military reform without telling them to divide their power.

If you have this opportunity, you will naturally spare no effort to take the opportunity to make trouble.

After reviewing the content of the letter, Yan Xiang on one side couldn't help but ponder: "Now the situation is becoming more and more beneficial to the lord. Even though Cao Cao put down more than one million Yellow Turbans in several months, he surrendered the elite and formed an army, causing his strength to rise sharply."

"But in the current situation, he may not be able to compete with our army, right?"

"Is it really that I and the young master are wrong? The most correct solution is to oppose the public and take the Zhongyuan all over?"

At this moment, Yan Xiang didn't say a word, thinking silently in his heart.

Looking at the development of the war situation, his original intention of resolutely resisting the attack on the Central Plains was also unswerving.

only.

He had no historical prophet and did not know that the turning point of this battle lies!

On the surface, Yuan's army had the upper hand and had a tendency to sweep the Central Plains.

But in fact, after the Yuan army entered Kuangting, it was defeated with one blow. Then Cao Cao took advantage of the victory and won consecutive battles, forcing Yuan Shu to escape for hundreds of miles, and the army under his command suffered heavy losses.

"We will congratulate the lords of the Central Plains in less than day, and promote the glory of the Yuan clan."

For a moment, facing everyone's congratulations, Yuan Shu was also happy, his smile continued to hang on for a long time, and the success of the series also made him forget Yuan Yao's instructions.

"Father, you must be careful when leading the crowd to fight Cao Cao, and you also need to warn the generals not to underestimate the enemy."

However, now he was already faintly blinded by joy, and a proud look on his face appeared again, so he ordered loudly: "Liu Xiang obeys the order, I will order you to lead five thousand people to Kuangting first."

"After the Heishan tribes and the Huns launched an attack on Cao Cao from the north, our army will directly capture the counties of Yanzhou and occupy the south of the Yellow River in one fell swoop."

"Here."

For a moment, Yuan Shu ordered the entire army to mobilize again.

Liu Xiang led his troops to Kuangting to station.
Chapter completed!
