Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu stood up suddenly, pulled Yuan Huan over, and strode out.
Everyone in the big tent looked at each other, what happened?
Xu You frowned secretly, this Yuan Huan is his enemy!
Others were quite curious and couldn't help but whisper.
"Did something happen?"
"It's not like that. My lord's expression is quite happy."
"Maybe it's good news."
"Could it be possible that a lot of food and grass were raised?"
Yuan Shu pulled Yuan Huan far away from the tent, then suppressed his excitement and said with cold eyes: "Yao Qing, is what you said true?"
Yaoqing, the name of Yuan Huan.
Yuan Huan was equally excited, raised his hand and said: "My lord, it's absolutely true!"
Yuan Shu was still worried and asked, "Where did you get the news?"
Yuan Huan hesitated for a moment and said: "This man is from my hometown. He was convicted by the imperial court as a treasonous person who barred three tribes. He escaped by chance."
Yuan Shu was instantly determined, his eyes were sharp, and he was quickly thinking about how to set up a trap.
Yuan Huan seemed to understand what he was thinking, raised his hand and said: "My lord, we must make sure that Dong Zhuo never comes back!"
Yuan Shu's expression was obscure and he clenched his sword tightly. His originally dark and depressed heart was filled with murderous intent.
Immediately, he glanced at the big tent and said: "From now on, no one is allowed to leave the big tent. Only you and I know about this!"
Yuan Huan was overjoyed and said calmly: "My lord, the two lieutenant generals Gao Lan and Zhang He can still be trusted."
"Not bad." Yuan Shu's heart was ups and downs, and he blurted out subconsciously. These two people are direct descendants of the Yuan family, so they can be trusted.
Yuan Shu didn't waste any more nonsense, called the two of them out, and began to make arrangements in earnest.
Not long after, Yuan Shu's camp was loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and mobilized quickly.
However, there were actually only three or five people locked up in the big tent, including Xu You and Guo Tu. They looked at each other, each remaining calm, but having different thoughts inside.
Xu You raised his head slightly, his expression arrogant and cold.
'Good on you Yuan Gongli! '
Xu You was secretly angry: "I made suggestions for you, but you actually treated me like this!" '
In the evening, someone came to deliver food to Xu You and others.
A petty official, seeing that others were not paying attention, whispered in Xu You's ear: "Commander, the lord has sent people to capture the relatives of Commander Tian."
Xu You felt a chill in his heart. He took the bowl and chopsticks with an indifferent expression on his face and ate slowly.
'What a ruthless Yuan Gongli! '
Xu You began to worry that if he could not defeat Dong Zhuo this time and had to withdraw his troops because of running out of money and food, Yuan Shu might blame him and settle the score later!
As time passed slowly and the sun gradually set, unknowingly, Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses quietly tensed up, and a murderous atmosphere filled the air silently.
…
In the north of Peixian County, Chief Huangfu Jian ordered 3,000 people. With the troops in hand, he was confident.
From time to time, news came from the south and was constantly summarized to Huangfu Jianchang.
Shi A was listening on the side and frowned: "They don't seem to be acting according to your design?"
Huangfu Jian nodded solemnly and looked at Peixian quietly.
His original plan was for the two parties to merge, but it was obvious that Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu had no such intention and were completely out of his calculations.
"Think of them simply."
Huangfu Jian's eyes flickered for a while, and various thoughts swirled in his mind.
Seeing that Huangfu Jianchang was serious, Shi A said instead: "Actually, you don't have to think so much. They are not fuel-efficient lamps. If you are not careful, you will fall into their trap. It is best to sit on the sidelines and watch clearly before taking action. .”
Huangfu Jianchang had been planning for so long, but he was unwilling to do so. He looked calm as usual and said to himself: "Your Majesty's decree for me is to watch their every move and to consume each other. But I can't just do it. At this point, Your Majesty is currently trapped in money and food, and I have to share your worries..."
Shi A was startled and said, "Are you thinking about Dong Zhuo's money and food?"
Huangfu Jianchang's face became more serious and he said: "There are at least 500,000 shi of grain in Dong Zhuo's warehouse. Even if we can't get it, it's better to burn it."
Shi A understood, thought for a while, and said: "Then you have to be careful. I guess Dong Zhuo is also on guard against Yuan Shu's move."
Because he was in Chen State before, Dong Zhuo wanted to do this to Yuan Shu. In addition, Yuan Shu ran out of food and grass, so he would naturally turn to Dong Zhuo's food and grass.
Dong Zhuo must be on guard!
Huangfu Jian glanced at him and suddenly burst into laughter.
Shi A resisted the urge to draw his sword and turned his head to ignore him.
Soon, it was getting dark. Huangfu Jianchang and Shi A led 3,000 people to quietly approach Peixian County in the dark.
On the other side, Yuan Shu's camp looks loose on the outside, but it's a busy job on the inside.
Yuan Shu, guarded by Ji Ling, stood on a hilltop, holding a sword in his hand and waiting with stern eyes.
"My lord, we found a troop of troops approaching!"
"Lord, the goal of the other branch is like Okura."
"Lord, there are soldiers and horses only twenty miles away from the camp. It's too dark to see how many of them there are."
Yuan Shu sneered in his heart, his face remained motionless, and he stared in the direction of Peixian County, with murderous intent boiling in his heart and unable to contain it.
'Old thief Dong Zhuo, if I don't cut you into pieces, it's hard to eliminate the hatred in my heart! '
Yuan Shu clenched his sword and said in a deep voice: "Order all the ministries to stand ready and wait for my order!"
"Yes!" the ordering soldier responded and left quickly.
Yuan Huan looked at the dark sky, estimated the time, and said, "Lord, where is Peixian County?"
Yuan Shu's eyes were burning and he said: "I ordered Zhang He to go. When I get the food and fodder from Dong Zhuo, the old thief, not only will I not withdraw my troops, but I will also march into Yanzhou and capture Sili in one fell swoop!"
When Yuan Huan heard this, he couldn't help but get excited.
If they can conquer Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop and advance into Sili, then another day will be around the corner!
This is not an immortal achievement!
Yuan Shu saw Yuan Huan breathing rapidly from the corner of his eye, a smile flashed on his face, and the pride in his heart surged.
As time passed, there were more and more news about the mobilization of troops and horses from various places, and it seemed that the war was about to break out.
Everyone from Yuan Shu on down was waiting anxiously.
The war hadn't started yet, but an army appeared outside Peixian County and marched to Peixian County in a big way.
The soldiers in Peixian County were frightened and shouted: "Who is it?"
"Didn't you see it was General Huazhong? Open the door!"
The soldiers downstairs shouted and raised their torches to the leader.
Seeing Hua Xiong on the tower, he was startled and said, "Didn't General Hua Zhonglang go and send out troops as ordered?"
"presumptuous!"
'Hua Xiong' shouted loudly and said: "I have been ordered by Duke Dong to return to Pei County to help Pei County and take care of the food and grass. Open the door!"
The soldiers on the city tower were startled. They dared not say anything and quickly ordered the city gate to be opened.
Zhang He lowered his head and hid behind Hua Xiong. Seeing the city gate opening little by little, he suddenly drew his sword and shouted: "Kill!"
Yuan Jun, who was in disguise, roared loudly and rushed towards Peixian like a tide.
"You've been fooled! Close the door! Close the door!" The soldiers on the tower were horrified and shouted repeatedly.
But it was too late, the city gate was rushed open, and Zhang He led his troops to fight in.
Not long after, Zhang He suddenly rushed out with his troops again - this was an empty city!
Zhang He rushed far away and then stopped with lingering fear, his expression uncertain.
This Dong Zhuo actually did this again!
"Where did the old thief go?" Zhang He looked uneasily in the direction of Yuan Shu's camp. It seemed that it was still quiet there.
Peixian County is an empty city, which shows that Dong Zhuo came out with all his troops. What's the conspiracy?
Zhang He sat on the horse, feeling uneasy and always feeling that something was going to happen.
"My lord has an order!"
"My lord has an order!"
"My lord has an order!"
Suddenly, a flag soldier came galloping over, hanging the Yuan army flag and holding a flag.
Zhang He's expression perked up, he checked the token and said anxiously: "What happened?"
The messenger reined in his horse, dismounted and knelt down on one knee. Hearing this, he was startled and said quickly: "My lord learned that Dong Zhuo's granary is located in Huizi Valley, thirty miles east of Pei County, and ordered Zhang Zhonglang to attack it immediately!"
Zhang He looked towards the camp again and said, "What's going on over there, my lord?"
The messenger said: "There is no movement until the villain comes."
Zhang He's expression darkened, and he immediately said: "Go back and report to your lord, Peixian County is an empty city, old thief Dong Zhuo has come out in force, there must be a conspiracy, please be careful, lord. I will attack the granary of old thief Dong Zhuo!"
"Yes!" the messenger responded, got on his horse, and galloped away.
Zhang He didn't waste any more nonsense and went straight to Huizi Valley in the east of the city.
The news of his night attack must be leaked, and Dong Zhuo's soldiers guarding the warehouse cannot have any more reactions.
Not long after the messengers ran, Zhang He's soldiers and horses could no longer be seen when they turned around. He hit the horses, turned towards the trail not far away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, he appeared in a forest, hurriedly changed out of Yuan Jun's clothes, came to Huangfu Jianchang, and told what happened just now.
Huangfu Jian touched his chin, chuckled, and said, "This Dong Zhuo is really not easy. Fortunately, I have you to remind me, Lao Shi, otherwise I would have fallen into a trap."
Shi A held the sword and said, "Aren't we going to follow?"
Huangfu Jian rubbed his chin with his right hand, glanced at the mud between his fingers, and said: "Don't worry, Old Thief Dong must be on guard. Let them fight for a while. Now I am curious, where is Old Thief Dong."
Since the evening, Huangfu Jianchang had not received any news from Peixian County. He had no idea that Dong Zhuo had actually left the city at night!
He had been sending people to keep an eye on the surrounding city gates, but he didn't notice at all! This method really frightened him.
Shi A raised his head and looked in the direction of Yuan Shu's camp and said, "Yuan Jiujiu is no match for Dong Zhuo."
After such a long time, Shi A finally understood that Yuan Shu's strategies and tactics tended to be "upright and upright", unlike Dong Zhuo, who was full of conspiracies and tricks, and was unable to prevent them.
"Let's go, it's only fair that they don't have any food."
Although Huangfu Jianchang cared about who won between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shu, he cared more about Dong Zhuo's food and grass.
Shi A nodded. He was a knight-errant. Unlike people like Yuan Shu and Cao Cao who came from aristocratic families and had great ambitions, he hated fighting. He wanted to be a knight-errant and to eliminate violence and bring peace to the people. He had the legacy of the Warring States Period.
Huangfu Jianchang led his troops and horses to the area not far from Nahuizi Valley, and found that a fierce battle had taken place between the two sides.
"Zhang He? You nameless person, take your life!"
In the light of the sky-breaking fire, Huangfu Jianchang saw a young general who was inextricably linked to Zhang He's kill and was not at a disadvantage.
Huangfu Jian stood not far away, quietly observing, sizing up the young general, and said, "Is it Zhang Xiu?"
Shi A thought for a moment and said, "It should be."
Shi A had a wide circle of friends and did not have much personal relationship with Zhang Ji. However, in the capital, Zhang Ji's wife, Zou, was famous far and wide.
