Chapter 525 Liu Bei Refuses

"Eight generals?"

"Exactly." Ju Shou said seriously, "The so-called eight generals are the eight brave generals in Lu Bu's army, they are Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Cao Xing, Hao Meng, Cheng Lian, and Wei Yue. "

"In addition to Gao Shun, Cao He and Hao Meng are stationed at Huguan."

Yuan Shao guessed, "But someone is dissatisfied with Lu Bu?"

"That's right." Ju Shou nodded and said, "Then Hao Meng is dissatisfied because he has not been promoted to the school captain by Lu Bu because he has been an official captain so far. Someone secretly sent someone to contact this person. Hao Meng said that if the lord sends an army to attack Huguan, then he is willing to act as an internal response, and when the time comes, Hao Meng will start a civil strife in the pass, and our army will take the opportunity to attack, and Huguan will only be in the palm of your hand."

"As long as Hao Meng is willing to rebel, our army will be able to take Huguan with ease. At that time, tens of thousands of troops will march straight in, and we will be able to enter Bingzhou with ease. Lu Bu experienced the battle of Mobei before, and his strength was greatly damaged. With our tens of thousands of troops in Jizhou, Wouldn't it be easy to take down Bingzhou?

What's more, Budugen has just received the canonization, and I feel grateful. Our army can also invite Budugen Shanyu to send troops together. Under the attack from the north and the south, Lu Bu will definitely be defeated! "

Yuan Shao nodded, but said: "Well, it is possible to instigate Hao Meng's rebellion, but it's okay to ask Bu Dugen to send troops, otherwise it will be useless to rob the people and get Bingzhou."

It's not that Yuan Shao loves the people so much, it's just that the population of Bingzhou is small, and if Dugen plundered some of them, wouldn't that be a waste of money?

"But after the capture of Huguan, Liu Ye will definitely go north to rescue. If something goes wrong, our army will be flanked by Liu Ye and Lu Bu from the north and the south." The judge said worriedly. He has always been known for his calmness among Yuan Jun's many advisers.

"Zhengnan and the lord should both remember that the Marquis of Huaiyin attacked Zhao?" Ju Shou smiled and said: "The Marquis of Huaiyin led the Han army to attack Zhao, and the commander of the Zhao army Chen Yu commanded 200,000 troops to fight against the Marquis of Huaiyin. Under the tent of Lord Cheng An Lord Guangwu said, "The Han army has come from a long way, and the weary troops don't need to fight with them, but just stick to Xingxingkou, and the Han army will be defeated without fighting."

"Oh." The examiner suddenly realized: "Gongyu means that our army will follow the example of Lord Guangwu and stick to the Eight Paths of the Taihang to prevent Liu Ye from going north?"

"That's right!" Ju Shou said in a loud voice: "With the Marquis of Huaiyin's ability to use troops, even if our army uses them in admiration for the strategy of Lord Guangwu, it will be difficult for Liu Ye to break through the Xingkou even if he has an army of 100,000. Get rid of Lu Bu quickly. Besides, Zhang Yan and Liu Ye have always had a feud, and I heard that Liu Ye will definitely send troops to stop him going north, maybe our army doesn't need to stick to the Taihang Eight Paths."

"Okay, okay!" Yuan Shao's eyes were full of light: "What Gongyu said is really a good strategy to stabilize the country. With Gongyu here, why should I worry about the big things not going to happen?"

Ju Shou bent down hastily: "My lord, you've praised me a lot. My lord is blessed by the heavens, and the grant is just in accordance with the weather."

Yuan Shao laughed out loud, and then his face suddenly became serious.

"Send a general order!"

"Adjudication!"

"Someone is here."

"You lead 10,000 troops to defend Yecheng, and at the same time supervise Liyang, Baima, and Yanjin. You must carefully defend the mainland of Jizhou, understand?"

Yuan Shao knew that judging and matching had always been mature and prudent, so he had always entrusted the job of staying in Yecheng to judging and matching.

"Ju Shou, Ru immediately supervised the army and ordered Yan Liang and Qu Yi to lead the army to Huguan, instigate Hao Meng and then enter Bingzhou. Qu Yi led the army to guard the Eight Paths of Taihang, and Yan Liang led the army to attack Bingzhou northward and quickly descend to Jinyang."

Ju Shou stepped forward and said, "My lord, although General Yan is brave but has a narrow temper, I invite you to be a military counselor."

"allow."

"That's right." Yuan Shao asked, "Has Ji Gui not come back yet?"

Yuzhou, Runan City.

"It turned out to be Mr. Ji Gui, who has long admired his name, please sit down quickly."

"Where there is, Uncle Liu Huang's name is like a thunderbolt."

Liu Bei and Cui Yan smiled at each other and sat on the ground.

Although this Cui Yan is not well-known in "The Romance", he has an extraordinary background. He is the Cui family of Qinghe, and he is the leader of the noble clan along with the Yuan family of Runan, the Wang family of Langya, and the Xie family of Chenjun. Among them, the Wang family of Langya and the Xie family of Chenjun are even called "Wang Xie". The so-called "Old Wang Xietang Qianyan" describes these two families. , share the world" and "Thank you and the horse, share the world".

"Guan Yu (Zhang Fei) pays his respects to Mr. Ji Gui."

Cui Yan showed a smile on his face: "No matter where, the two generals are the enemy of ten thousand people. Yan has always been famous for a long time, seeing him today is enough to comfort his life."

Liu Bei smiled lightly, exchanged pleasantries, and asked, "I heard that Mr. Ji Gui works under Benchu's official account, why did he come all the way to Runan?"

Cui Yan chuckled, first looked around. Liu Bei said indifferently: "Guan Zhang and I are brothers of the opposite sex, like brothers and sisters, regardless of each other, Mr. Ji Gui don't need to avoid suspicion."

"Since that's the case, I opened my mouth." Cui Yan said loudly, "I came here on the emperor's edict."

"Mr. Ji Gui is under the official account at the beginning, and he is a foreign minister, but how can he obey the emperor's edict?" Liu Bei asked suspiciously.

"Uncle, please look, this is the edict of the emperor." Cui Yan straightened his waist and handed out the handkerchief book. Liu Bei was shocked when he saw it, but on the surface he remained calm. He had already cultivated The realm of emotion and anger is invisible.

"Brother, what did the edict say?" Zhang Fei asked directly.

"Your Majesty's decree, order Ben Chugong to remonstrate with the general and return the government to the emperor."

"Is there such a thing?" Guan Yu asked in confusion, stroking his long beard lightly.

Cui Yan nodded: "That's right. The emperor's uncle is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. This time, my lord, together with Cao Cao, the governor of Qingzhou, and Liu Jingsheng, the shepherd of Jingzhou, used an army of 200,000 soldiers to remonstrate Liu Yuqing. What does the emperor think?"

"No."

Before Liu Bei agreed, Guan Yu spoke first.

Cui Yan looked at Guan Yu: "I don't know what advice General Yun Chang has?"

Guan Yu snorted coldly: "First, Yuan Shao is a foreign minister. If he is good at using weapons to besiege the court, what is the difference from Dong Zhuo? It sounds good to say military advice, but in fact it is just a siege of the court. Second, Yuan Shaoyuan was in Jizhou, how can I get the emperor's edict? Could it be that a forged one is here to deceive my elder brother!"

"The Second General doesn't know something, my lord sent Chief Shi Fengji to Luoyang to face the Holy Spirit in person." Cui Yan argued, "This imperial edict is exactly what Feng Yuantu Miansheng got."

"Hmph! If the general doesn't return the government, we brothers will naturally fight on the grounds. The general has always treated the emperor with great respect, and the palace has never been short of expenses. Wouldn't it be rebellious to attack the court casually?" Guan Yu said disdainfully.

Zhang Fei nodded, and muttered, "Second Brother said, we have a very good relationship with Brother Yuqing, how can we fight to the death?"
