Xue Tao went back to his house, made a simple arrangement, and left huaixian in a hurry to Jizhou in the northeast. From huaixian to Jizhou, because Xue Tao rode all the way with high speed, he entered Jizhou and went straight to Yecheng in a short time.
Yecheng is the administrative center of Jizhou.
Yuan Shao is here.
Today, Yuan Shao not only controls Jizhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou, but also Qingzhou.
Although the relationship between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao has maintained superficial harmony, in fact, there have been many frictions between them. After all, after Cao Cao mastered the emperor, there was a natural estrangement between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
In order to stabilize Yuan Shao, Cao Cao made Yuan Shao a great general, and granted Yuan Shao emperor Fu Jie and Dao to show his importance to Yuan Shao.
Now, Yuan Shao is complacent.
He is a powerful general with strong troops and strong strength.
Yuan Shao's current focus is on Youzhou. Although Yuan Shao's troops invaded Youzhou, they failed to kill Gongsun Zan, resulting in the delay in conquering the whole Youzhou.
Yuan Shaozhen didn't pay attention to Zhang Xiu.
In the past, when Yuan Shao planned to kill Zhang rang and other eunuchs, Zhang Xiu was still a brat.
In the past, Yuan Shao confronted Dong Zhuo chaotang, and Zhang Xiu was only a junior general in Dong Zhuo's army.
In the past, when Yuan Shao led the Allied forces of the vassals to attack Dong Zhuo, Zhang Xiu did not even have the right to take charge of the army.
It's just Zhang Xiu. It's not worth mentioning.
Yuan Shao thinks that sending Yan Liang as the main general is enough to win.
If Yan Liang didn't hide the news that Xu you was arrested in Chang'an, it would have been sent back to Yecheng and Yuan Shao. However, Yan Liang worried that the news would easily cause yuan Shaozhen's anger when it was sent back to Yecheng, so he didn't send back the news of Xu you.
As a result, Yuan Shao did not know.
Yan Liang's earlier plan was to hope that he would get rid of Zhang Xiu, take Xu you back and solve the problem. But Yan Liang did not consider that he himself fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu.
When the whole army fell, news came out.
General's mansion.
Yuan Shao is in the backyard, watching his youngest son yuan Shangwu.
Yuan Shao's three sons are Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang. Although yuan Shang was a young man, his appearance was nearly 80% similar to that of Yuan Shao when he was young. He was very popular with Yuan Shao because of his handsome and strange appearance, strong figure and brave.
Yuan Shang is dancing his sword at the moment.
In the school field, Yuan Shang kept waving his sword. The light of the sword was dazzling, but it was more beautiful than flashy.
Yuan Shao is brilliant in his eyes.
"Good, good, good!"
Yuan Shao cheered one after another, and he was very happy.
He felt that his youngest son was similar to him, especially when he was young. He was also good at martial arts and was handsome. Just like this, yuan Shaocai likes yuan Shang incomparably.
Yuan Shang is now in his early twenties. After finishing a set of swordsmanship, he respectfully said, "my father, my son has just learned swordsmanship. He is not proficient in swordsmanship, which makes my father laugh."
Yuan Shao praised: "my son's swordsmanship is quite good. In a short period of time, it was hard work to make such achievements. "
Yuan Shang said: "my son is not hard."
"Step on it! Step on
A rush of footsteps came from the school yard. A soldier came up quickly and reported: "the general, Jushi, Tianfeng, Shenpei, Guotu and Fengji, together, asked for a meeting. They said they had something important to report."
Yuan shaomei head up, slightly surprised.
Jushou, Tianfeng and other five were Yuan Shao's counselors. All of them are brilliant and wise counselors. Sometimes, five people come together to ask for a meeting.
It must be something big.
Yuan Shao asked yuan Shang to go back and wash, then went straight to the hall. Entering the hall, Yuan Shao's eyes swept over the five counselors under his command, and saw that each of them looked solemn. Suddenly, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "all of you come together. What's the matter. Is it the battle against Gongsun Zan at the front? What's wrong? "
Tian Feng shook his head and said, "Lord, it's not that Youzhou has gone wrong. In Youzhou, the war against Gongsun Zan went smoothly. At present, there is a big problem in Hongnong county. "
Yuan Shao said, "what happened to Hongnong county?"
Tian Feng replied: "Yan Liang and Xu you were captured by Zhang Xiu and completely destroyed. In addition, the army Zhang Yang sent to Hongnong county was completely destroyed. The publicity ministry, Sui Gu, was also defeated and captured. "
Brush!
Yuan Shao's face changed greatly.
After he arrived in Jizhou, Yuan Shao first served as the prefect of Bohai Prefecture, and then sought the post of animal husbandry in Jizhou. His strength has been constantly expanding, and now he has occupied the land of four prefectures, ranking the top in the world.
In recent years, he has never had such a big loss, even the counselor and the general were arrested.
Yuan Shao said, "what's the matter?"
So far, Xu Hongfeng was defeated in Changan County. Yan Liang, fighting with Zhang Xiu, was ambushed by Zhang Xiu, and was attacked by the water and completely annihilated. "Said the general situation, Tian Feng elaborated the war report which sent back.
Finally, Tian Feng said about the collapse of Huayin county and the Yang family's assistance to Zhang Xiu.
Tian Feng introduced all the information before he said: "now Yan Liang and Xu you are all in the hands of Zhang Xiu. So far, we have to fight with Zhang Xiu. On the one hand, it is to win back Yan Liang and Xu you; on the other hand, it is to defeat Zhang Xiu and show the Lord's prestige. "
Jushou, Fengji and others agreed.
Among these people, Ju Shu and Xu you didn't deal with each other, even though the judge and Guo Tu were not happy with Xu you.
But at the moment, the war affected Yuan Shao's overall situation, and several people didn't say anything against it. When it comes to Yan Liang's defeat and Yuan Shao's prestige, we must defeat Zhang Xiu and wash away the humiliation after the defeat.
"Newspaper!"
Just at this time, a soldier entered the hall and reported: "I'd like to report to the grand general, Xue Tao, the envoy of Hanoi's prefect. Xue Tao said that he came here for the sake of the situation in Hongnong county. "
Yuan Shao said, "please go to the side hall and see him when I finish my work."
"Here it is
The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.
Yuan Shao looked solemnly and said, "just now Yuan Hao said about Huayin county. Sui Gu was defeated and captured. Now Zhang Yang is sending envoys here for help. What do you suggest? Besides, what should we do if we want to attack Zhang Xiu? "
Yuanhao is Tian Feng's character.
Tian Feng took the lead in saying: "Lord, there is a way to do humble work. You can kill two birds with one stone."
When there was no dispute among his advisers, Yuan Shao was also quite wise. As long as his opinions were unified, Yuan Shao would carry them out. However, if they were not unified, Yuan Shao would shelve the dispute and did not know how to make a decision.
After all, every counselor has his own reason.
Yuan Shao said: "Yuanhao's plan will be settled?"
Tian Feng's eyebrows turned upside down and his eyes were sharp. He solemnly said, "the purpose of Zhang Yang's sending Xue Tao here is to ask for help. Obviously, Zhang Yang is afraid of Zhang Xiu, so he will fight with Zhang Xiu. "
"Yan Liang and Xu you are captured. We need to send more troops. But in today's situation, we are not directly adjacent to Zhang Xiu. The army must enter Hanoi county to enter Hongnong county. "
"When Xue Tao asked for help, the Lord could first take the strategy of attacking Guo by pretending to pass the road. After the army entered Hanoi County, it would swallow Hanoi first and use Hanoi County as the bridgehead for the Lord to attack Hongnong."
"Take Zhang Yang, and then play Zhang Xiu."
"After Zhang Xiu was destroyed, the Lord's army went west and held the whole Guanzhong in his hands."
Tian Feng looked wise and said: "in Guanzhong, there were warlords such as Li Xi, Guo Si and Duan Lu who fought against each other and were not easy to attack. Because in the event of a crusade, the other side will stick together. But now it's different. If you kill Zhang Xiu, you can control Guanzhong. In particular, Zhang Xiu has rice paper in his works. He is so rich that he won Zhang Xiu, which is equivalent to mastering rice paper. "
On hearing this, Yuan Shao had a greedy look in his eyes.
Tian Feng's words touched Yuan Shao's heart.
Yuan Shao looked at his advisers and said, "what do you think?"
"I agree with you
"There's no point in being humble!"
……
They all agreed with Tian Feng. Now that Yan Liang was captured alive, Yuan Shao's strength was damaged, and one by one he agreed with the annexation of Hanoi Prefecture.
