Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

Yuan Shang was stunned.

The judge changed his color in astonishment.

Zang Ba also shook violently and changed in shock.

At this moment, all of them were in a trance, thinking that their ears had heard wrongly.

Xiapi fell?

Yuan Tan was killed?

There are still more than 30,000 soldiers and horses available in Xiapi City.

Was it so inexplicable that Liu Bei defeated him without any warning?

Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Yuan, his eldest brother Yuan Shang!

He actually died in the hands of Liu Bei?

Yuan Shang's mind was buzzing, and countless unbelievable questions were buzzing in his mind.

The next moment, it exploded

"This is impossible! Yuan

Shang suddenly woke up, grabbed Guo Tu, and shouted excitedly:

"Xiapi is the most fortified city in Xuzhou. My eldest brother still has 30,000 soldiers and horses available. How could it be suddenly attacked by Liu Bei?"

"Guo Tu, are you teasing me? Guo

Tu burst into tears and sighed with a mournful face:

"Third Young Master, how dare you play tricks on Third Young Master like this!"

"It was the thief Chen Deng who secretly communicated with Liu Bei and used Deng Mu's trick..."

Guo Tu choked with anger and told the entire story of Xiapi's fall with a trembling voice.

The air froze.

""540" On everyone's faces, surprise was replaced by horror

"Deng Mu, is it Deng Mu’s trick again?"

"Could it be that this person is really as smart as the rumors say, almost as clever as a demon, and so scheming?"

Yuan Shang gasped, his eyes filled with disbelief.

In recent years, he has been guarding Yecheng and has never left Hebei.

All kinds of rumors about Deng Mu, he is in Yecheng, naturally I have heard about it.

But it is only what I heard.

Just like Yuan Tan, before he suffered a big fall in the hands of Deng Mu, he never believed that there was such an unpredictable person in a poor family.

Therefore, Yuan Shang also thought for a time, Most of the rumors about Deng Mu are just exaggerated rumors.

Deng Mu's intelligence is on the same level as Shen Pei Guo Tu. At most, it can be compared with Tian Feng Jushou.

But today, the news that Xiapi fell and Yuan Tan appointed the leader, But his understanding was completely shattered.

At this time, he suddenly realized that he had underestimated Deng Mu.

The intelligence of that poor villager was far beyond his imagination.

Even in Hebei Tian Feng, the strongest strategist, is probably even inferior to him.

"The fall of Xiapi was certainly due to Deng Mu's cunning and cunning tactics."

"But the eldest son’s self-righteousness was the fatal reason for his death."

"Don't forget, the order given to him by the lord is to stay in Xiapi and wait for the third son to go and take over the Xuzhou Army."

"If he hadn't been eager to make meritorious deeds and want to save his fate of being sent away, how could Deng Mu succeed no matter how cunning his plan was?"

The judge calmed down first and analyzed it eloquently. He was not too afraid of Deng Mu's wisdom.

Yuan Shang was reminded by him and suddenly realized.

His stupid elder brother was not willing to be sent to you. Yuan Tan had completely lost the opportunity to fight for the throne, so he broke the boat and went to war without authorization.

It was precisely this mentality of Yuan Tan that Deng Mu caught, and he used Chen Deng's instigation to successfully lure him out of the city and surrender.

"What Zhengnan says makes sense!"

"If my stupid brother hadn't gone out to die on his own, how could Deng Mu's plan be successful no matter how amazing it was!"

"Yuan Tan, you disobeyed your father's orders and went to war without permission. Not only did you lose your own life, but you also fell into Xiapi and ordered 30,000 of my soldiers to be buried with you!"

"You stupid thing, so stupid!"

Yuan Shang no longer worried about the identity of Yuan Tan's eldest brother, and started to curse angrily in front of everyone.

The judge coughed a few times, but he didn't mean it:

"Third Young Master, as the saying goes, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. This incident may not be all bad."

"At least, from now on, no one in the Yuan family can compete with the Third Young Master..."

The judging points were not stated directly.

Yuan Shang suddenly understood, and a flash of joy flashed in his originally angry eyes.

Yuan Tan is dead. Gone!

This means that the only threat that can compete with him for the Yuan family's reserve position has completely disappeared.

It is not the kind of disappearance that was sent to Youzhou, but a complete death and reputation, and has disappeared from this world. Disappear!

As for Yuan Xi, his cowardly and incompetent second brother is not even qualified to compete for the reserve position.

This means that he has no suspense and has become Yuan Shao's only heir in the eyes of everyone.

Even you The scholars of the Ying faction could only pinch their noses and hatefully admit the fact that he was the heir apparent of the Yuan family. How could Yuan Shang not be overjoyed?

"The eldest son disobeyed his lord's order and forced himself to fight despite Tu's dissuasion."

"Now he fell into Deng Mu's cunning plan and lost his life. It was his own fault."

"Now it is clear from the picture that the third young master is the Yuan family’s only hope!"

"The picture is for the third son to saddle the horse in front and behind, doing the work of the dog and horse."

Guo Tu also acted according to the opportunity and decisively expressed his intention to surrender to Yuan Shang.

Xu You betrayed Cao and Xun Chen died. Guo Tu can be said to be the leader of Ru Ying's faction.

Guo Tu showed his intention to surrender and represented Ru Ying. Ying Yi faction was about to switch to his family.

Yuan Shang was even more delighted. If he hadn't suppressed it deliberately, he would have laughed out loud at this moment.

"Third Young Master, no matter what, it is a fact that Xiapi fell and 30,000 soldiers and horses were lost."

"Liu Bei's army will then rush towards Tancheng, trying to swallow up the entire Xuzhou"

"We have to think of a countermeasure quickly."

Zang Ba reminded Yuan Shang with a heavy tone, breaking Yuan Shang's joy.

Yuan Shang shuddered, and his thoughts suddenly returned to reality.

Yuan Tan is dead, but Liu Bei is right in front of him. (Read Baoshuang novels and go up to fly Lu Novel Network!)

Without those 30,000 soldiers and Xiapi Jiancheng, he would use his head to resist Liu Bei?

"Zhengnan, do you have any good ideas?"

Yuan Shang's eyes flashed with panic, and he hurriedly asked the judge for help. But the judge was stroking his thin beard, his expression was calm and calm, and he usually had a calm demeanor.

"The terrain of Tancheng is flat and open. With our current strength, we are determined to be unable to hold it."

"According to his wife's opinion, the third young master immediately abandoned Tancheng and retreated to Langye Jucheng area."

"Langye has Mount Yishan and Mount Tai to the west and the sea to the east. The terrain is narrow, which is not conducive to the deployment of the superior strength of the Big Ear Bandits."

"The Third Young Master has brought 10,000 troops and horses, plus the 10,000 Taishan troops from Prefect Zang. If we can ask the lord to allocate another 10,000 troops, we can make up the total of 30,000 troops."

"We have 30,000 soldiers and horses to defend Ju County and cannot leave. We have the confidence to stop the advance of the big-eared thief!"

The judge came to the map, made some gestures with his fingers, and offered Yuan Shang strategies to defend against the enemy.....

"As of now, that's all it can do."

Yuan Shang sighed and shouted:

"Quickly send someone to Liyang to report to his father and ask him to send troops for reinforcements immediately!"

"After the order was sent, all the ministries immediately abandoned Tancheng and retreated northward to Jucheng!"

…[]

Liyang City.

The darkened hall was filled with an anxious atmosphere.

"Ma Teng and Ma Chao!"

"You two thieves, father and son, dare to be enemies with me, hateful, hateful~~"

Yuan Shao tightly grasped the information in his hand and cursed through gritted teeth.

That was an urgent report from a senior governor of Bingzhou.

Originally, he and Cao Cao fought a decisive battle at Guandu, and the princes such as Han Sui and Ma Teng in Guanzhong all held a neutral attitude and stood aside.

After the disastrous defeat in the Battle of Guandu, the princes in Guanzhong lined up and declared their support for the court controlled by Cao Cao.

With the help of Jia Xu, Ma Teng first planned to kill Han Sui and annexed his tribe, making Ma Teng the most powerful prince in Guanzhong.

Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi and other generals in Guanzhong all supported Ma Teng as the leader of the alliance.

Under Jia Xu's persuasion, Ma Teng sent his two sons to Xudu as hostages. He and his eldest son Ma Chao personally led the Guanzhong troops from Hedong County into Bingzhou.

The fate of the Guanzhong Army caused the Yuan family's situation in Bingzhou to take a sharp turn.

The senior cadres were retreating steadily and had to send people to him overnight to ask for help.

"The people of Xiliang are the most dishonest. Now seeing that my situation is unfavorable, it is not surprising that they will defect to Cao Cao."

"As for Jia Xu, he was known as the poisonous scholar. He instigated the Xiliang army to counterattack Chang'an and caused great chaos in Guanzhong."

"This man's viciousness was exactly the same as that of Cao Cao's thieves. It was not surprising that he tempted Ma Teng and his son to turn to Cao Cao."

Fengji made a disdainful comment, then handed over his hand:

"As for Bingzhou, although Ma Teng is coming fiercely, there are dangers in Bingzhou after all."

"The lord can allocate 5,000 elite soldiers to Gao Jishi and order him to defend Jinyang and other fortified cities and dangerous passes, and not to engage in direct confrontation with Ma Teng."

"The people of Xiliang are good at field battles but not good at attacking cities. It is expected that if they cannot attack for a long time, they will retreat without fighting."

After hearing Feng Ji's words, the anger on Yuan Shao's face subsided slightly.

After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand helplessly:

"Just follow what you said, quickly mobilize five thousand troops and horses to Jinyang, and order the senior officials to stick to Jinyang and not go out to fight!"

The order was passed down.

Yuan Shao tore the urgent report in his hand into pieces and coldly snorted:

"Ma Teng, Jia Xu, you Xiliang thieves!"

"After I deal with Cao Ah Ma and the big-eared thief, I will be free to deal with you!"

The words just fell.

A messenger looked panicked and broke into the palace. He stumbled and knelt down in front of the steps.

"Report to the lord!"

"Liu Bei used Deng Mu's plan a few days ago to break through Xiapi and annihilate our 30,000 Xuzhou Army."

"The eldest son was defeated and captured, and was killed by Liu Bei!"

"The Third Young Master asked the lord to send troops and reinforcements as soon as possible, otherwise Xuzhou would be difficult to defend and Qingzhou would be in danger of falling!"

Boom!

It was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which struck the lobby.

Yuan Shao's body shook violently, as if he was struck by thunder on the top of his head. In an instant, the world was spinning, and his eyes were pitch black.

"ah——"

Yuan Shao spat out a mouthful of blood and fell down on the table..
