I should marry the traitor

Chapter 84 Yuan Shao's Shock

Autumn day, Bohai County City.

The paper was torn into pieces, and the scraps of paper scattered in the air, slowly floating across Yuan Mochu's angry face.

"Can anyone tell me? Why did An Xinlin surrender? Why? Why???"

Yuan Shao's voice was not loud, but everyone could hear the hysteria in her tone.

Yuan Shao gave up Zhongshan County City just to use it as a piece of meat to provoke the two tigers to fight over it.

As a result, one of the tigers surrendered before the fight even started? The other tiger also accepted the other's surrender generously.

What happened to the saying that there can't be two tigers in one mountain? Aren't these two a male and a female?

"My Lord, it is meaningless to think about these things now. It is a fact that these two traitors are in cahoots with each other. We should make plans early."

Tian Feng pointed out that this might make Yuan Shao unhappy. After all, it was Yuan Shao who made the decision to give up Zhongshan County, and now he was severely slapped in the face.

"Yes, my lord. This is truly a critical moment for life and death. We should make plans early."

Seeing that Tian Feng was the first to speak out, Guo Tu also spoke up.

Although Tian Feng's personality is opposite to Guo Tu's, Guo Tu has always disliked this woman, but the situation is critical now and it is not the time to be angry with her.

The problem Yuan Shao had to face was not only the two armies of Xiliang and Beishuo, but also the problem of insufficient food and fodder.

Bohai County City is not as prosperous as Zhongshan County City, and the stored food and grass are far less. It was originally just to supply Zhang Qingge's troops, so of course there is no problem.

But now Yuan Shao's army also relies on the food and grass from Bohai County to survive, and they are a little stretched.

When Guo Tu mentioned making plans early, he not only referred to the possibility of being attacked, but also hinted at the possibility of a shortage of food and fodder.

"Huh, let me think about it." Yuan Shao looked at her fingers and thought for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Zhang Qingge who was standing in the distance.

Generally speaking, Yuan Shao had many advisers and generals under his command. If they were not discussing issues such as leading troops to fight, the generals would usually give up their front seats to the advisers, making it easier for Yuan Shao to discuss related matters with the many advisers.

But at this moment, Yuan Shao had some questions to ask Zhang Qingge, so she waved her hand and said, "Zhang Qingge, step forward two steps. I have something to ask you."

Zhang Qingge heard this and quickly stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "My lord, please speak."

"If I want to transport grain by sea, is it feasible?"

Zhang Qingge thought for a moment and replied:
"We do have enough ships, and neither Xiliang nor Beishuo have large ships, so they can't intercept us at sea. We can go south to transport grain, but..."

"money is not a problem."

Yuan Shao answered subconsciously that troubled times had arrived, and even if the south was not in chaos, the price of food would inevitably rise to a new high.

But Yuan Shao never worried about the problem of having no money. The Yuan family in Yangzhou and Yuzhou in the south also had a huge influence. As long as the ship could pass through, they would be able to buy food.

"It's not a matter of money." Zhang Qingge shook his head: "Bohai County has ships, but the number of ships is limited. If most of the ships are sent to transport grain, if those two rebels come to attack..."

Zhang Qingge didn't finish his words, but most of the people here were knowledgeable about military affairs and understood what Zhang Qingge meant.

If there are not enough ships, it will be difficult to bring into play the advantages of Bohai County, which is located along the river and the sea.

Even if we take a step back, with enough ships at hand, even if the city could not be defended, he could lead a large number of troops to escape along the sea.

Of course, these words may not sound good. Zhang Qingge is a smart person, so he can just say half of the words and let everyone figure them out for themselves.

"How to deal with these two traitors who are in collusion is indeed a problem."

Yuan Shao didn't think An Xinlin really surrendered. It was probably that the two traitors had somehow reached a consensus on interests and were connected. After all, An Xinlin had at least 70,000 elite troops, and she was the best in the world. It was impossible for him to surrender before the battle even started.

Most likely the surrender was just a cover to save face for the court represented by Dong Bai.

I just don't know what kind of favor Dong Baixu gave to An Xinlin to make An Xinlin willing to lose face.

But no matter what the reason is, this is bad news for Yuan Shao.

It was already difficult for her to resist An Xinlin alone, let alone Dong Bai.

"Don't worry, my lord. I have a plan."

When everyone heard this, they looked and saw a pretty girl named Shen Pei.

"What good plan does Zhengnan have?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Pei walked out and said:

"Nothing but alliances and alliances."

"Now that the two thieves Dong and An have joined forces, they are poised to sweep across the world. We alone cannot stop them. We must do our best to seek allies."

"Everyone in the world should understand the principle that the lips and teeth are interdependent."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao thought about it carefully and realized that she did have a strong ally that she could win over.

"You mean the governor of Dongyou, Huang Guoer?"

Dong Bai and An Xinlin, two of the four military governors, have the potential to sweep the world when they join forces. Everyone should think twice.

There are not many allies that can be won over, and Dongyou Jiedushi Huang Guoer is undoubtedly one of them.

In terms of military strength, Huang Guoer, who dominates Dongyou Island, has the strongest navy in the world.

In terms of personal strength, as a hybrid with 92% phoenix blood, although Huang Guoer rarely fights with others, the words "Phoenix blood" are enough to show the value of Huang Guoer.

That is the true king of birds. Theoretically, it is slightly better than the Xuanniao bloodline of the Yuan family. For Yuan Shao, it should be a natural ally.

But Yuan Shao was very hesitant about the proposal to join forces with Huang Guoer.

There are too many suspicious points about Huang Guoer. Although the Phoenix bloodline cannot be faked, it is well known in the world that Huang Guoer is a half-demon with Phoenix bloodline.

However, there is no surname called Huang in the bloodline inheritance of the aristocratic family. Although Huang Guoer possesses one of the most noble bloodlines in the world, she was actually born a commoner.

Moreover, Huang Guoer has no father or mother, and no close blood relatives. Her phoenix bloodline seems to be a single seedling, which makes people feel puzzled.

Moreover, Huang Guoer's behavior is also very strange. She has a large number of troops but stays in Dongyou. She is extremely powerful but rarely fights with others. She exudes a sense of incompatibility with other awakened hybrids.

How could an awakened hybrid be willing to live on a small island and wait for death? Yuan Shao believed that there must be a reason worth exploring.

But Yuan Mochu had no choice at this moment. If she wanted to compete with Dong Bai and An Xinlin, she must have a strong enough ally.

At this time, Huang Guoer was almost her only choice.

"My lord, I am willing to go as an envoy to Dongyou to persuade the governor of Dongyou to send troops and work with you on a grand plan."

"This is the only solution at the moment. My Lord, please make a decision quickly."
