Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1529
Xu County.

Thousands of lights.

Liu Xie was walking on the inner wall of the palace, and the cold wind of late autumn was blowing. Xun You followed a step behind, walking slowly.

"Your Majesty, the night is cold and the dew is heavy..." Fu Shou said in a low voice, "...you might as well go back to the palace first..."

"Wait a little longer..." Liu Xie waved his hand, apparently not wanting to go back to the palace right now, but just looking into the distance with his eyes, as if he was looking at something, but he didn't seem to see anything at all.

The night wind blew, swept some fallen leaves, and circled under the palace wall, creating a vortex.

"Such a beautiful country..." Liu Xie looked at the fallen leaves dancing up and down under the autumn wind, and seemed to be touched, showing a little smile, and then quickly restrained himself, "It's a pity... a gentleman grows old together, and the vice-president Liu Jia .Commissioned Tuotuo, like mountains and rivers..."

The two stood by the palace wall, silent.

Fu Shou knew that Liu Xie oh Yin's song "Gentleman Growing Old Together" was not just pointing at her, but Fu Shou didn't know whether he was talking about Zheng Xi or someone else...

Under the gorgeous scenery, in the midst of the mess, the son is not good, what is the cloud like?
"Your Majesty, it's getting cold..." Fu Shou wrapped the cloak around his body, looked left and right, and said, "Go back to the palace?" Some long-winded.

The last time Liu Xie felt something like a loyal minister and good general, then Cao Sikong made a statement, saying that he would return the power to Liu Xie, which immediately caused an uproar.As a result, some ministers really stood up and expressed their approval of Cao Sikong's return to power. In the blink of an eye, before the discussion could discuss how to return the government, the ministers who jumped out to agree were exposed as corruption and dereliction of duty. They were arrested and imprisoned one after another for similar crimes, and then the matter of returning to power was naturally no one mentioned it.

At the end, Cao Sikong said that the emperor was young, so he will be in charge for a while, and he will stay for a few years. After the emperor grows up, he will discuss the matter of returning to power, which puts an end to this incident.

Of course, Cao Cao didn't say when the emperor would grow up, and no one dared to ask.

Liu Xie smiled slightly, his smile was a bit cold, "The weather is not cold, but people's hearts are cold..." But Liu Xie also understood what Fushou meant, lowered his voice, and said after a while, "I am going to seal Zhengxi as a hussar cavalry general..."

Fu Shou opened his eyes wide and looked at Liu Xie. He was taken aback for a moment, and said in surprise, "Hussars?"

Liu Xie nodded, and then said: "Do you know, at the moment of Zhengxi, we have entered Sichuan and Sichuan..."

"Chuan Shu?" Fu Shou whispered, his words seemed broken and powerless in the cold wind, "...In this way, wouldn't it be..."

Liu Xie smiled slightly, his young and handsome face showed exhaustion, "These good ministers of mine... When the late emperor was alive, I just thought that my ministers were mediocre and incompetent, delaying state affairs, but now I Only then did I understand that these ministers of mine...hehe, they are not mediocre ministers, but capable ministers..."

Liu Xie's voice was faint, finely mixed in the autumn wind, like fallen leaves wrapped in the autumn wind, fluttering up and down, "...the first emperor, I was wrong, and I was wrong too...it was so wrong... "

"Your Majesty..." Fu Shou was speechless in response.

Liu Xie also didn't intend to ask Fushou to answer, maybe Liu Xie just felt depressed for a long time, and couldn't find anyone to discuss and talk to, so he took this opportunity of walking to talk quickly. "...Conquering the West to enter Bingzhou and conquering the Yin Mountains is a meritorious service, which is due to the country! I gave him the position of general! Conquering Guanzhong, defeating Li Guo, and defeating Xiliang are the generals who saved the country, and the meritorious service is shining! I also entered it Marquis of Guanzhong! Hehe, I also thought that Zhengxi was dedicated to the country, but...this time I marched into Sichuan and Shu...hehe...I entered his hussars just to..."

Fu Shou was silent for a moment, then said: "This, where Cao Sikong is..."

"Cao Sikong?" Liu Xie finally showed some happy expression, "In normal times, Cao Sikong would definitely refute the ban, but this time, Cao Sikong has to admit it..."

Liu Xie glanced at Fushou, but he didn't wait for Fushou to ask why. After holding back for a while, he still said: "After all, Cao Sikong is too busy to take care of himself now... The war is coming, and Cao Sikong also needs some side support..."

Fu Shou suddenly realized.

Liu Xie patted the cold palace wall, but he didn't feel how cold it was, because he felt that it was the first time he took the initiative to attack instead of passively parrying. This feeling made Liu Xie somewhat enthusiastic, as if Finally, he stood at the game place that was originally out of reach, facing the game of Jiangshan, and took a picture like a chess piece.

The autumn wind howled across the night sky.

"General, Sikong, hussars..." Liu Xie raised his head and looked into the distance, "Hehe, the world..."

....................................

Yanzhou.

The war is about to start.

Originally, this was a village, but it was deserted in the time of Suanzao, and now it has regained its popularity, but now there are no farmers at all, only soldiers left.

In the light of the flames, the figures swayed, and the lights in the large tent of the Chinese army were brightly lit.

Yuan Shao's vanguard troops arrived in Hanoi, stationed in Liyang, and directed their troops at Yanzhou.Cao Cao also made a false shot on Mount Tai and wiped out some unsightly yellow scarves and weak bandits, and then turned to this point.

Outside the big tent, Xun Yu stood on the slope, the night wind was blowing his robe, and the silk scarf and belt were fluttering in the wind.

Inside the tent, although there is ventilation, but after all, there are too many people, and after staying for a long time, it is also very stuffy. Go out and take a walk, so that your almost boiling brain can have a little time to cool down, as the saying goes. Zhang Yichi, the way of self-cultivation.

The patrolling soldiers knocked on the watch, the breath of new moon spread to the golden watchman, and the cold shone on the iron clothes.In such a night, no one knows how many people's thoughts are churning, intertwining and colliding...

"...It is said that His Majesty is going to make Zhengxi a hussar..." Behind Xun Yu, a tired voice came along with the sound of footsteps, "Aha... sleepy... it really doesn't stop everywhere... ..." Guo Jia walked over while yawning.

"This is a trivial matter..." Xun Yu said indifferently, "It's just His Majesty's carelessness..."

"Thinking? Hehe, maybe not?" Guo Jia stood beside Xun Yu, looking at the bright stars in the night sky together, "Your Majesty has grown up too..."

Xun Yu was silent for a long time, then bowed his hand and said, "...Yeah, I've grown up...so, we have to fight now..."

"You still have to fight even if you can't win?" Guo Jia said in a low voice, his voice was like grass in the night wind, swaying and floating, "Do you know that these big families who transported Qiu Fu here are smiling on the surface I don’t have a lot of money and food, so I wrote a letter to the big ape, revealing the military’s loyalty in every detail... Hmph, if it weren’t for the order of the Rangers to strengthen their patrols, I don’t know how many people will be exiled in the end..."

"Er Yuan is the thief of the country. If you don't get rid of it for a day, the country will be restless..." Xun Yu said in a deep voice, with a firm attitude, and then glanced at Guo Jia, "I don't know who said that there are ten victories... "

"Cut..." Guo Jia said that was nothing wrong, "It's not that you don't know the situation at that time... Besides, believe it or not, I will break down the ten wins, break them up, and make up twenty wins and twenty losses." What’s more, if someone decides the outcome, haha, then why do you need these soldiers? I will stand up and spit out whoever is upset..."

Xun Yu forced a smile upon hearing this.

"Zhengxi has entered Sichuan and Shu, and may not be able to come out for a while... Liu Jingsheng is not feeling well, and Jingzhou is in turmoil... In this way, there is nothing to worry about..." Xun Yu said quietly, "So, if you don't fight at this time, what are you waiting for?" When? Wait until Sichuan and Shu are settled in Zhengxi and Liu Jingzhou recovers before fighting?"

"I know..." Guo Jia also lowered his voice, "So the Great Ape must know about it too, so do you think that if there is a real fight, the Great Ape will only send a second general, Zhang Gao, with a few thousand soldiers? If in case...in case..."

I don't know if it's the cold wind in the late autumn night, or some other reason, Guo Jia couldn't help shivering, and wrapped himself in the robe, "...in case, if it really happens..."

"No way!" Xun Yu said decisively without even thinking about it.

"How do you know it won't?" Guo Jia asked, "What if?"

Xun Yu glanced at Guo Jia, "If I say no, I won't! There's nothing in case!"

"Hey!" Guo Jia turned his head away and ignored Xun Yu.

After a while, Xun Yu said in a low voice, if it wasn't for Guo Jia who was standing beside him, he would hardly have heard what Xun Yu said, "...Your Majesty granted Zhengxi the title of hussar, the general must think that we are joining forces with Zhengxi ... Youbei must guard against Xianbei and Wuhuan, and also guard against soldiers who conquer Xiyin Mountain. There must be at least [-] cavalry and [-] infantry... Zhongmou is located near the city of Ye. , and at least seven or eight thousand soldiers... Qingzhou was initially determined, and soldiers were needed to guard it, and at least three or four thousand soldiers were allocated... I have calculated it. In this way, the general can only have [-] to [-] soldiers at most. Mobilization... Our chances of winning are still very high..."

Guo Jia said: "I've done the math too! I know this too! I mean..."

"No, I won't..." Xun Yu flatly rejected it.

Yes, if Yuan Shao really wanted to defend Youzhou, Qingzhou, and Bingzhou, Cao Cao would have a greater chance of winning if his soldiers were dispersed, but what if?What if Yuan Shao is like Cao Cao, putting all his eggs in one basket and making a move?
At present, Cao Cao even basically abandoned Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou and other areas that had been captured, and fully reduced the number of soldiers and troops, and returned these areas to the local big surnames for governance, leaving behind some soldiers and officials whose symbolic power was greater than their actual strength. It can be said that if there is a war with Yuan Shao, once Cao Cao is defeated, these places will almost immediately turn their heads and kneel and lick under Yuan Shao's dress.

If Yuan Shao really adopted the strategy of changing his family, like Cao Cao, temporarily abandoning Youzhou and Qingzhou, and also concentrated his troops to fight Cao Cao head-on, then Cao Cao's soldiers were at a huge disadvantage, and naturally there was not much hope of victory.

Does Cao Cao know about this?
Cao Cao also knew.

It's a big gamble!
A big gamble on Cao Cao's entire fortune!

"We will win..." Xun Yu looked at the sky and the stars in the sky, "We will definitely win..."

Guo Jia sighed, shook his head, and said, "Okay, let's buy it and leave..."

....................................

at the same time.

Wancheng, outside the city, Sun Ce camp.

Sun Ce stood in front of the big tent, looking at Wancheng crawling like a giant beast in the night.

The siege will start tomorrow...

Yuan Shu couldn't make it through, he was exhausted all the way, the trees fell and the monkeys scattered, and his heart was exhausted. In the end, just like in history, he died on the way. As for whether he wanted honey water or vomited blood, who knows? I don't know, but I just knew about Yuan Shu's family and so on, and finally voted for Liu Xun.

Liu Xun was originally an old official of Yuan Shu, and it has been a while since Yuan Shu named him the prefect of Lujiang. He has some roots in Lujiang and has a large number of soldiers. Therefore, Sun Ce adopted Zhou Yu's strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, and on the one hand, pretended to show favor , expressed willingness to obey Liu Xun's orders, and on the one hand encouraged Liu Xun to attack Jingzhou...

Because of Yuan Shu's defeat, the knife stabbed by Liu Biao and Liu Jingzhou was indispensable. If Liu Xun wants to inherit Yuan Shu's foundation better, he must at least show that he has the ability to avenge Yuan Shu. The next person to sit in the hall would have to show off his muscles, and Liu Biao had recently fallen ill again. Liu Xun felt that this was a godsend, so he led his troops north to attack Jingzhou.

After learning that Liu Xun's army was dispatched, Sun Ce immediately tore off the previous docile camouflage, and led the soldiers straight to Liu Xun's base camp, Wancheng, and surrounded the city with water.

Zhou Yu walked over slowly, stopped behind Sun Ce, and cast his eyes on Wancheng together, and said after a while, "Are you worried?"

Sun Ce turned his head, glanced at Zhou Yu, and smiled heartily: "With you here, what am I worried about?"

Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and suddenly the whole night sky seemed to light up: "Then what are you thinking? Liu Zitai's reinforcements? Even if he can return to the army, he will not be able to return within five days. By then we will have captured Wancheng, and then waited for work with ease... Whether he comes back or not, the result will be the same..."

Sun Ce nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I know...I'm not thinking about this..."

Zhou Yu's complexion is smooth and clean, as warm and jade-like under the night sky, but even brighter are his eyes, which seem to be reflected in the entire night sky, dazzling and colorful, with a slight movement, the stars will change. "Then what are you thinking about?"

"Yuan's daughter..." Sun Ce paused for a moment, then said firmly, "I don't want to marry you!"

"Bo Fu!" Zhou Yu frowned, "Only after marrying Yuan's daughter can..."

"I know!" Sun Ce interrupted Zhou Yu's words, "You have said this many times, and I understand the benefits!"

"Then why..." Zhou Yu asked suspiciously.

Sun Ce looked up at the sky, and after a while he said, "Although Yuan Gonglu owes something to someone, he also owes something to him... Marries his daughter, builds his foundation... Hehe, it's good, but someone can't bear it!"

Zhou Yu wanted to jump, "What does it matter?!"

Sun Ce shook his head.When Yuan Shu was defeated before, Sun Ce actually had the opportunity to go north and rescue Yuan Shu, but in the end Sun Ce did not do so. Although in the eyes of many people, this is not a big deal, but Sun Ce feels somewhat guilty in his heart, feeling that he is a betrayal Yuan Shu.

Now, because he wants to better inherit the inheritance left by Yuan Shu, he is going to marry Yuan's daughter. Although Sun Ce also knows that this is the best way, but Sun Ce, who thinks he is open and honest, can't get over this hurdle in his heart. .

Moreover, Sun Ce felt that Yuan's daughter was not a fool, maybe she didn't understand it for a short time, but wouldn't she figure it out after a long time?From a certain point of view, Sun Ce is tantamount to seeing death without saving him. Wouldn't Yuan's daughter have any resentment?In this way, would he still be chattering all day long, willingly supporting his husband and teaching his son, and even looking for a concubine for Mr. Lang?
"What kind of man is he to win the world by marrying women?" Sun Ce smiled, facing the sky, and said to his own heart, "If I don't marry Yuan's daughter, can't I win the world? A joke !"
