Three Kingdoms: Concubine Yu Ji Lu Pheasant, I Overthrow the Han Dynasty

"When the lord came, he ordered that the battle of Xuzhou was assisted by Lord Shang and Li Si, and Zhang Yi was not needed."

"Zhang Yi is willing to stay in Wancheng and help the general defeat Cao Cao."

"If you can't be defeated, the general can hand over Zhang Yi to Cao Cao, or you can protect yourself."

Zhang Xiu is from Xiliang, with a bold nature, he immediately laughed and said, "Thank you sir."

"Let's set up a grand banquet tonight, entertain Mr., and you won't return until you're drunk."

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "The general is kind, and Zhang Yi appreciates it."

"Before defeating Cao, Zhang Yi's identity is inconvenient to be disclosed. Please forgive me, General."

Zhang Xiu slapped his forehead, and said with a smile: "It's Xiu's negligence, so I will wrong you for a few days."

"After defeating Cao, no matter how good I am, thank you sir."

Zhang Yi cupped her hands and said with a smile, "That's very good."

……

Xuzhou.

Taishan County.

Yuan Tan personally led [-] soldiers and horses, valiantly and arrogantly preparing to take Xuzhou.

Originally, Yuan Tantuo was planning to bring only [-] soldiers and horses.

But Liu Bei and Xin Ping persuaded him together, saying that bringing more soldiers and horses would deter Zang Ba and make him more stable.

This was the first time Liu Bei and Xin Ping sang the same tune, so Yuan Tan stopped and brought [-] more troops.

Along the way, Yuan Tan's messenger kept reporting Zang Ba's movements.

"Sir, General Zang Ba has left the mansion and is heading for the north gate."

"Report to Eldest Young Master, General Zang Ba has left the city and is ready to welcome Eldest Young Master."

"Report to Eldest Young Master, General Zang Ba has already left the city for five miles to meet Eldest Young Master."

"Report to Eldest Young Master, General Zang Ba has already left the city for ten miles to meet Eldest Young Master."

……

Yuan Tan was extremely proud, and commented to Liu Bei and Xin on the left and right: "Zang Ba surrendered, and our army will be able to approach the city of Xiapi within three days."

"Zang Ba has [-] soldiers and horses, plus our army's [-] soldiers and horses, a total of [-] troops, will be able to conquer Pengcheng in one battle, kill Qin Wu, and conquer Xuzhou."

Liu Bei immediately patted his horse and said: "Congratulations to the eldest son, after this achievement, the son of Hebei will definitely be the eldest son."

"Hahaha..." Yuan Tan liked to hear such words the most, and immediately burst out laughing, "Xuan Degong's words are very true."

"In the future, my son will definitely not treat Xuande Gong badly."

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Thank you, Eldest Young Master, Liu Bei is looking forward to it."

Guan Yu couldn't help frowning, he really couldn't understand Liu Bei's flattering face.

However, Liu Bei is his eldest brother, and he is in the name of avenging Zhang Fei, which makes Guan Yu quite helpless.

In desperation, Guan Yu had no choice but to turn his head and look aside, pretending not to hear.

What about Xin Ping?

He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out. Naturally, he didn't dare to easily disturb Yuan Tan's interest, so he had to think about it all the time.

Soon, the army advanced to a hundred miles north of Kaiyang City.

Chapter 081 Young Master, we have been tricked, retreat quickly

"Report to Eldest Young Master, Zang Ba has led a hundred personal guards to the fifty miles north of Kaiyang City to welcome Eldest Young Master."

Yuan Tan was overjoyed, laughed loudly and said: "This Zang Ba is very knowledgeable, he is a talent."

"In the future, I will definitely recommend him to my father."

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Since he is a talent, why doesn't the eldest son keep him by his side?"

Yuan Tan was taken aback for a moment, but then he understood, he laughed and said, "Mr. Xuan De was right to remind me."

"Zang Ba stayed in Qingzhou to play for Hebei, for his father."

Yan Liang frowned, and shouted: "Liu Bei, what do you mean, sow discord between the eldest son and the lord?"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "What did General Yan say? Is what Bei said just now wrong?"

"..." Yan Liang was speechless for a while, and he couldn't say anything to refute.

Apparently, there's nothing wrong with it.

But there is something wrong with the meaning.

Yan Liang was a martial artist, so naturally he was not good at words, so he fell silent immediately and turned to look at Xin Ping.

As for Xin Ping, he was quite unpopular with Yuan Shao, so he took the initiative to come to Qingzhou to assist Yuan Tan.

Therefore, Xin Ping naturally pretended not to hear Liu Bei's words and did not express his opinion.

About two quarters of an hour later, another scout rushed to report: "My lord, something is wrong, the Kaiyang army has come out, and they have already joined Zang Ba."

"Zang Ba's army totals [-], and it's only less than [-] miles away from here."

what?

Yuan Tan was taken aback: "Didn't Zang Ba only bring a hundred personal guards, how could the thirty thousand soldiers come?"

Without waiting for the scout to answer, Chen Gong immediately shouted: "I understand."

Immediately, everyone turned to Chen Gong.

Time was urgent, Chen Gong immediately explained: "My lord, this is a plan to hide the truth."

"Zang Ba led a hundred personal guards and walked in front, just to confuse our army scouts."

"And the [-] troops following behind will naturally be able to deceive the eyes and ears of our scouts."

Yuan Tan still didn't understand: "But even if Zang Ba has a different heart and doesn't really want to submit, how can he stop our army of [-] with only [-] troops?"

Chen Gong sighed slightly: "Obviously, Zang Ba has defected to Qin Wu."

Zang Ba defected to Qin Wu?

Everyone was taken aback.

Only Xin Ping realized something and sighed: "It seems that Guo Tu betrayed the lord."

"This..." Liu Bei was dumbfounded.

After a long battle, Liu Bei also figured it out.

Because of Guo Tu's betrayal, what Yuan Tan got was false news.

Then, Zang Ba deceived Yuan Jun's scouts by using the method of deceiving the sky and crossing the sea.

Finally, and most frighteningly, Qin Wu's Xuzhou army must have ambushed on the left, right, and behind, encircling Yuan's army.

Yuan Tan was startled and angry, and immediately shouted: "Immediately, send out scouts to the left, right and back to investigate the situation, and go immediately."

Immediately, the scout battalion started running quickly, sending out a large number of scouts in three directions.

Yuan Tan panted heavily, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Gongtai, what should we do now?"

Now, Yuan Tan can also see that Chen Gong's strategy is higher than Xin Ping's.

Chen Gong pondered for a while, and said: "Young Master, don't worry, it was just Gong's worst conjecture."

"There are not enough soldiers and horses in Xuzhou. If you want to encircle our army, it may not be easy."

"According to the intention of the palace, it is better to wait for the scouts to report, and to see which side the Xuzhou army is weak, and our army will break through to that side."

Breakout?

Yuan Tan immediately became anxious.

Yuan Shao asked him to attack Xuzhou, but he didn't even see the Xuzhou army, so he was going to break through?

When this matter spread to Jizhou, it is uncertain how Liu and Yuan Shang would slander Yuan Shao in front of him.

"No way..." Yuan Tan was furious, "The situation is unknown, how dare you retreat lightly?"

"Perhaps, this is the little thief Qin playing tricks, the purpose is to create chaos in our army."

At this moment, Liu Bei said, "My lord, Bei has a plan."

Yuan Tan was overjoyed: "What clever plan does Mr. Xuande have? Tell me quickly."

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Young thief Qin is sure that if our army finds out that it is surrounded by the Xuzhou army, it will definitely return to Qingzhou immediately."

"Therefore, the little thief Qin will definitely deploy the main force on our army's way back to Qingzhou."

"As for the left and right sides, the forces must be weak."

"Therefore, I thought that our army could divide into two groups, break out from the left and right sides, and then turn back to Qingzhou."

"However, if you want to deceive Little Thief Qin, you have to leave a group of soldiers and horses to break out in the direction of Qingzhou, so as to confuse Little Thief Qin and buy time for the main forces on the left and right to break through."

At this time, the scouts came to report, and the situation was indeed similar to Liu Bei's guess.

In front are Zang Ba's [-] soldiers and horses, and behind them are also [-] Qin troops. There are only [-] soldiers and horses on the left and right sides.

Yuan Tan was overjoyed and immediately adopted Liu Bei's strategy.

"Where is General Yan Liang?" Yuan Tan shouted loudly.

Yan Liang immediately cupped his hands and said: "The last general is here, please give orders to the eldest son."

Yuan Tan looked at Yan Liang, and said calmly: "I will give you [-] soldiers and horses to break through the siege in the direction of Qingzhou, so as to confuse the little thief Qin, making him think that all our troops have returned to the north."

Yan Liang immediately shouted: "The last general takes orders."

Yuan Tan ordered again: "Mr. Xuande, lead ten thousand troops and break out to the left."

"My son leads [-] soldiers and horses and breaks out to the right. See you in Qingzhou."

"..." Liu Bei was speechless for a while.

Forty thousand soldiers and horses, should it be half to half?

Damn it, [-], I only have [-], bullying people.

But the left and right sides are empty, there are only a thousand soldiers and horses of the Xuzhou Army, and they have nothing to fear.

"Liu Bei has orders."

Thus, the [-] yuan army was divided into three groups and began to move.

Yingwu is at the [-] army behind Yuan Jun.

After getting the report from the scouts, a sneer appeared on the corner of Yingwu's mouth, Yuan Tan, you have been tricked.

Ying Wu said lightly: "Order all the troops to prepare to collect the net, and must capture Yuan Tan alive."

Lu Lingqi was on the side, and couldn't help being dissatisfied: "General, don't forget that there is Liu Bei."

Ying Wu shook his head lightly: "Our army is not strong enough to wipe out Yuan Jun, we can only take care of one side."

"Then Liu Bei is best at fleeing for his life on the battlefield, and he will definitely not be able to catch him this time."

"However, don't worry, the whole world will be mine sooner or later, so how long can Liu Bei escape?"

"Yeah." Lu Lingqi nodded, and didn't say anything else.

The overall situation is the most important thing, Lu Lingqi is a sensible person.

Ying Wu smiled lightly: "Besides, if Yuan Tan is captured by our army and Liu Bei returns to Jizhou, how can Yuan Shao spare him lightly?"

While Yingwu and Lu Lingqi were chatting and laughing, Qin Jun was quickly closing the net.

Yingwu's [-] troops ignored Yan Liang's [-] soldiers and quickly marched towards Yuan Tan's breakout, trying to block Yuan Tan's retreat.

As for Yuan Tan's [-] troops, they broke through to the right and rushed towards the [-] Qin troops.

And the thousand Qin soldiers seemed to have not seen Yuan Jun rushing over, they were all motionless and lined up in a line.

Xin Ping immediately felt something was wrong.
