Chapter [197] Yuan Shu Raises Troops, Intuition Appears
Zhongli County.
It is located in the northernmost county of Huainan, next to the Huaihe River.
The opposite bank is the junction of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and Yuan Shu was arranged by Liu Bei to station here.
Liu Bei took him in, and he naturally thought about maximizing his benefits while taking him in.
Arrange Yuan Shu here, no matter whether Cao Cao sends troops from Xuzhou or Yuzhou, Yuan Shu will bear the brunt.
Liu Bei's arrangement was also using Yuan Shu as a shield.
The so-called thin camel is bigger than a horse. Although Yuan Shu was beaten by Cao Cao and fled to Huainan, he was not alone. There were still many people under his command, including some soldiers.
After Fazheng landed on the Huaihe River, he quickly entered this small county town near the river.
When he came to the county yamen, Fazheng asked his followers to bring out the envoys, and then said to the guards at the gate: "Please inform General Hussars, the envoys of King Qin are asking to see you.
The guards in front of the door saw that the law was upright and extraordinary, and they held the festival in their hands, so they didn't dare to neglect, and hurried into the mansion.
After a while, the soldiers left and returned, and the envoys spoke. "
Fazheng nodded, and entered the county government office with a "one-seven-three" step.
When I came to the main hall, I saw a person sitting on the main seat.
Even though he didn't know him, there was no doubt that this posture must be Yuan Shu.
"The envoy of the king of Qin, Fazheng, pays his respects to General Hushi."
At the beginning, Lu Bu granted official positions to all the princes in the world, but with the formation of the anti-Lu Bu alliance this time, it was inconvenient for Lu to let the emperor issue an edict and remove all official positions from everyone.
On the contrary, Yuan Shu is not famous, because he didn't have any serious conflicts with Lu Bu, he still retains the title of Yuzhou Mujia Hussar General.
"The envoy is not polite, the king of Qin sent you to see me, a lonely person, what can you tell me?" Yuan Shu laughed at himself.
Yuan Shu now also has the meaning of lying down. The young master of the Yuan family, who was a glorious young master, was also an existence that responded to everyone at the beginning, but now he can only linger on in this small county town. One can imagine the gap in his heart.
It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.
The past was too beautiful, which made Yuan Shu unable to stand the current downfall.
People with a high starting point tend to have relatively poor adversity quotient; while those with a low starting point can often be indomitable.
For example, once Yuan Shu was frustrated, he would be devastated.
On the other hand, Liu Bei, who fought repeatedly and failed repeatedly, spent half his life in trouble, and finally managed to divide the world into three.
In fact, Yuan Shao was the same, after the first battle at Guandu, he was actually very strong, but he couldn't pass the hurdle in his heart, and died in depression.
"I come here because I have good news to tell General Hussars." Fa Zheng smiled lightly.
"Oh? What good news? Let's hear it." Yuan Shu reluctantly raised a little interest.
"Liu Bei is going to die soon." Fazheng said nothing.
"Huh?" Yuan Shu immediately became interested, "Speak clearly.
"After Liu Bei invaded Hanzhong, he suffered a defeat, and more than half of his soldiers were lost." Fazheng added.
"Is it true?" Yuan Shu didn't believe it, "I heard that the princes of the four routes jointly attacked Lu Bu. I'm afraid Lu Bu is in danger now, right?"
"What does this have to do with General Hussars?" Fa Zheng asked back: "King Qin is dead now, does it have anything to do with you? General Hussars still cares about his situation
"You brat is so courageous. If this word reaches Lu Bu's ears, are you still alive?" Yuan Shu asked in surprise.
"His Majesty Qin will care about these insignificant things, let's get back to the topic." Fazheng was not worried at all.
"Tell me, what is your purpose for coming this time?" Yuan Shu sat up straight and asked.
"The King of Qin is going to wipe out Liu Bei in the Hanzhong area, but in order to cut the grass and roots, I want General Hussars to respond one or two, and you will raise troops in Huainan to disturb the rear." Fazheng said straight to the point.
"Could it be that Lu Bu couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to drag me off to help him share?" Yuan Shu was skeptical.
Because he was lying flat, Yuan Shu didn't pay much attention to the battle, and he is not very clear about the situation at present.
"Whatever you think." Fazheng remained indifferent, "Anyway, now that Liu Bei is mobilizing, the army has all entered Hanzhong, leaving Huainan empty."
"General Hussars, if you want to spend the rest of your life in a small county, then pretend that I have never been here, and I will leave immediately." Fazheng paused, "If General Hussars still has the heart to make contributions, then it is you now." best chance."
Yuan Shu's face was uncertain when he heard the words, obviously he was weighing quickly in his heart.
Fazheng continued to think about himself and said, "It's a matter of mutual benefit. Why is General Hussars hesitating? Could it be that he likes the feeling of being under the fence?"
"Or was it General Hussars who was convinced by Liu Bei and was willing to guard the gate for those who weaved mats and sold shoes?"
Sending people under the fence, weaving mats and selling shoes, these two key words immediately hit Yuan Shu's sore spot.
"Boy, don't use aggressive tactics on me, this little trick can't fool me." Yuan Shu said with a gloomy face.
Fazheng cupped his hands and stopped talking, his face was calm and he was not worried.
Because the method of aggressive generals can be regarded as a kind of conspiracy, even if it is seen through, it doesn't matter.
Fazheng only needs to stir up the dissatisfaction in Yuan Shu's heart and stimulate Yuan Shu's sensitive nerves, and Yuan Shu will naturally be dissatisfied with the status quo.
So what if you know that the Fa is stimulating you? Can you keep your mind calm?
As long as Yuan Shu can't do it, then the goal of Fa-rectification will be achieved.
"You said that more than half of Liu Bei died in Hanzhong? Is this true or false?" Yuan Shu couldn't help asking.
"It's absolutely true!" Fazheng swore pointing at the sky, "When the military report was delivered to the King of Qin, the King of Qin sent me as an envoy to General Hussars. If there is even half a lie, there will be a thunderbolt from the sky."
I swear to God, the credibility is still very high at the moment.
The ancients seldom open their mouths in this regard, except for Sima Yi, after Sima Yi, the matter of swearing and swearing became completely nonsense...
Yuan Shu got up from his seat, walked up and down the room with his hands behind his back, and kept turning in circles.
"Okay!" Yuan Shu gritted his teeth, "Go back and tell Lu Bu, I will raise troops immediately!"
"Congratulations to General Hussars for successfully recovering Huainan." Fazheng said with a smile.
Liu Bei sent troops to crusade against Lu Bu and took away most of the troops under his rule. There were very few guards in Huainan. Once Yuan Shu rebelled, the possibility of success was very high.
And whether Yuan Shu can succeed, in fact, Lu Bu doesn't care.
As long as Yuan Shu raises troops to mess up Liu Bei's rear, then Lu Bu's goal will be achieved.
As for the area of Huainan, it doesn't make any difference to Lu Bu whether it belongs to Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, Sun Ce or Cao Cao.
After persuading Yuan Shu to raise troops, Fazheng left Huainan immediately and set foot on the way back to Guanzhong
Hangu Pass.
Lu Bu slept for three days, and when he woke up, all the injuries on his body were healed.
Get up from the bed, move your body a little, all the blood scabs on your back will fall off, and the whole person will be resurrected with blood.
He walked out of the room and came to the top of the city, just in time to meet Jia Mu who was patrolling.
"My lord, are you awake, is your injury serious?" Jia Mu asked immediately.
"Hahaha! Alright!" Lu Bu shouted loudly, allowing all the surrounding soldiers to hear.
Seeing Lu Bu's energetic appearance, the soldiers felt relieved.
After all, Lu Bu's disappearance for three days will definitely make the soldiers below feel uneasy.
Now that Lu Bu reappeared, and he looked like he was recovering from his injuries, the soldiers were completely relieved.
"What's Cao Jun doing recently?" Lu Bu asked looking outside the city.
"Back to Your Majesty, not only Cao Jun has no intention of withdrawing, but he is afraid that he will make a comeback 2.8." Jia Mu replied immediately.
"Oh? How do you know that?" Lu Bu frowned slightly.
Cao Cao is not a fool. At this moment, Cao Cao should realize that his chances of winning are very small, and Hangu Pass cannot be breached at all.
Normally speaking, Cao Cao should think about retreating. It is impossible to continue to attack. Cao Cao's level is not so low.
But Jia Mu said that Cao Jun still had the idea of attacking, which obviously contradicted Lu Bu's guess.
"My lord, not only has Cao's army not intending to withdraw recently, but they are also cutting down a large number of trees and hiding in the camp to make utensils. The general speculates that the other party wants to continue making siege equipment.
Jammu speaks his judgment.
Generally speaking, Jia Mu's judgment is indeed not a problem. A large amount of wood is used in the barracks, and it can only be used to make ordnance, and it is impossible to make agricultural tools.
"No!" Lu Bu immediately shook his head, "Cao Jun is about to withdraw!"
"Ah?" Jia Mu was very surprised, subconsciously asked: "How did the king know?"
"intuition!".
