Chapter 31: The Quartet's Alliance

Yuan Jun retreated to Fengqiu Camp.

Since he had decided to give up fighting in the Central Plains, Yuan Shu quickly sent a whistle cavalry to order General Liu Xiang to lead his troops to escape Yu Jin's attack and retreat.

After the entire line was withdrawn, the main forces of the Yuan army gave up the Chenliu area in an orderly manner and retreated to Yingchuan County, Yuzhou, and stationed in Xu County.

Military Palace.

Zhang Xiu, a young player who is eight feet tall and wears a silver robe, also shows a heroic side.

At this moment, he met Yuan Shu who was sitting upright, with a hint of arrogance on his face and asked loudly in a confident tone:

"Then the general, now my elite cavalry has defeated Cao's army for your army. Previously, Mr. Yuan agreed that our army would help us to help us, and our army would pay for money and food."

"I hope the general will fulfill it."

"Money and grain?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu's face changed color suddenly, and then he looked at Zhang Xiu's arrogant and rude expression, without any distinction between etiquette, and immediately he had no good feelings.

Originally, Yuan Shu was extremely disgusted with the people of Xiliang, but now Zhang Xiu is already in the form of an attitude of being your life-saving benefactor. It would be strange if Yuan Shu was not upset.

"What kind of money and food, I don't know anything?"

For a moment, Yuan Shu replied sternly without any room for discussion.

Seeing this, the staff around couldn't help but agree:

"Yes! How much money and food is needed? Xiliang is worthy of being a barbaric land. There are Dong thieves in front and you and others behind, they are all people who are ignorant of the king's laws and do not know the ranks and inferiors."

"Can you such an irreverent person make such a big talk about this?"

"How dare you..."

Suddenly, the mansion fell into a state of intense heat, and the two sides were in a tense situation.

Zhang Xiu was already impatient and was in a prime age. How could he tolerate the ridicule of his staff and the dislike of Yuan Shu?

Seeing this from the side, Yuan Yao saw that the situation was wrong... he quickly stood up to be a peacemaker and comforted everyone:

"Sir, the money and food matter was agreed by Yao to Zhang Ji, General of the Cavalry, so there is no need to be like this..."

After the words came, he slowly moved his eyes to Zhang Xiu, with a kind smile on his face and said with a smile:

"Brother Xiu, since it was Yao's personal promise, he would not break his promise. My father didn't know the details for the time being. When Yao explained the whole story to his father later, he would definitely serve the money and food at that time."

"I hope Brother Xiu will wait for another two or three days to wait for our army to prepare."

Since Yuan Yao had made a promise, Zhang Xiu couldn't force him too much, so he had to retreat in a depressed manner.

After Zhang Xiu left, Yuan Shu turned his head slowly, with an angry expression on his face, and couldn't help but say, "Yaoer, what's going on?"

A word fell.

Yuan Yao then refused to hide it and explained: "Father, it is not unconditional for the Xiliang army to come out to help. Because their army was short of food, Zhang Ji and Duan Wei were independent because of their children's discord and differentiation."

"Without Chang'an's support, it would be even worse for their army."

At this point, Yuan Yao said in a deep voice with some confidence: "If I hadn't found out about this information, how could the child be confident in persuading the Xiliang army out of the customs?"

"Yaoer promised how much money and food will be funded after the matter is completed?"

"The military ration is 500 stones, and you can give some money at will... the Xiliang army mainly lacks food."

Yuan Yao said solemnly.

only.

When Yuan Shu heard this, he showed some hesitation:

"Yaoer, money and food matters are not such a big deal. It's just that the Xiliang thief army is untrustworthy. Why do you need to help and watch them grow stronger?"

"Ha ha."

After the words came, Yuan Yao's smile became stronger and he slowly bowed his hand and explained:

"Father, this is naturally for the sake of the overall situation. Isn't it beautiful to give up some money and grain and lead the Xiliang army to aid?"

"How do you say this?"

"Our army has now retreated to Yingchuan, and we must strengthen the walls and clear the fields and retreat step by step to Yangzhou, based on Runan and Huainan. By then, once the Central Plains states lose the strong strength of our army and are shocked, Cao Cao will inevitably develop in an all-round and rapid manner."

"If our army is in Yanzhou and attracts a strong support to peek at the western border of Henan, it will inevitably make Cao Cao feel uncomfortable, curbing his wild growth and avoiding the uncontrollable development."

"If that happens, wouldn't it be that the difficulty of our army will increase when it re-attacks the Central Plains in the future?"

After a brief speech, Yuan Yao, as his father Yuan Shu and his staff, briefly explained the specific reasons for his desire to attract the Western Liang army to aid.

In fact, Yuan Yao's move was equivalent to supporting Zhang Ji with money and grain, while Duan Wei and others firmly watched the heartland of the Central Plains for his army and restricted Cao Cao's development.

He was not worried about the two getting bigger.

Because they were trapped between Cao Cao, Li Guo and other Xiliang troops, they were attacked by two powerful enemies, and they had lost any expansion power.

And except for relying on their own support, they will have no chance to gain a foothold.

This is also the essential reason why Yuan Yao wanted to alienate and divide the generals of Xiliang.

Only in this way can we achieve perfect control over them.

If you want to control it, you will naturally have to master the other party's lifeline.

It happened that Zhang Ji, Duan Wei and others' lifeline was that they lacked money and food, but they could give them all, so they could naturally control them safely.

Hearing Yuan Yao's arrangement, Yuan Yao was happy and agreed quite a bit. Then he nodded to him with a complimentary look, then asked the Prime Minister to ask someone from the side, and said:

"Zi Shang, Yao'er's plan, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiang pondered for a while before saying, "Lord, you can lead the Xiliang army as a strong support, and Xiang thought it was feasible."

"Not only that, our army can do it..."

As he said that, his face suddenly became cold and he said in a deep voice: "Our army should also present the western cities of Chenliu, Fengqiu, Junyi and other Chenliu to the Xiliang Army."

"In this way, Zhang Ji and others will have a full border with Cao Cao, and that will lead to endless wars and will naturally delay Cao Cao's development."

After a while, Yan Xiang solemnly added: "As for these cities, we cannot defend them after our army moves. Instead of being recaptured by Cao's army, it is better to give them to the Xiliang army to play a greater role. Wouldn't it be better?"

Listening to Yuan Yao and Yan Xiang offered each other this strategy, Yuan Shu was in a good mood for a while and immediately swept away the haze buried in his heart that was unfavorable in the Jishui War a few days ago.

At this moment, he couldn't help but caress and laughed: "Haha, I will have this son, so what else can I ask for?"

A few months ago, Yuan Shu was more disgusted than Yuan Yao who frequently opposed his strong attack on the Central Plains...

But now it's really delicious...

Yuan Yao frequently surprises him and is happy that he can frequently bring decisive victory for the overall situation.

This is his son of Yuan Shu.

In the future, it will also be a hope to continue the supreme honor of the Yuan family.

As for Yuan Shao's concubine son, how far is he going to go as far as he can, his humble identity and still want to inherit the family business?
