Historically, Yuan Shao died of sorrow and anger not long after his defeat at Guandu.

After Yuan Shao's death, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan fought for the position of heir.

When Yuan Tan was defeated, he asked Cao Cao for help. Cao Cao even asked his son Cao Zheng to marry Yuan Tan's daughter to appease Yuan Tan's heart.

Yuan Xi was in a worse situation. When Yuan Shang was defeated and defected to him, his subordinates Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan rebelled, causing him to flee to Wuhuan. He wanted to unite with Wuhuan, but was defeated by Zhang Liao and wanted to flee to Wuhuan. Gongsun Kang’s territory was beheaded by Gongsun Kang again

……

Zhou Cheng looked at Yuan Xi who was saluting in front of him and said,"Please sit down."

"Thank you Da Sima."Yuan Xi sat aside a little cautiously.

At this time, Zhou Cheng said:"Although I killed your father, this matter is in the past and I don't want to mention it again."

Yuan Xi nodded in agreement.

Zhou Cheng continued:"I want to enter Chang'an, and I need your cooperation. If I can capture Chang'an, I will appoint you as the shepherd of Yongzhou, and at the same time make you the Marquis of Gaoling, and retain the existing army."

Although an envoy had informed him before, now that he heard Zhou Cheng's personal promise,

Yuan Xi felt reassured and excited.

Yuan Xi stood up and said,"Thank you, Sima, for your kindness!"

……

Early March, 199 AD.

Yuan Xi led 20,000 troops and horses to attack the south gate guarded by the Black Mountain Army. Although he suffered some casualties, he still took advantage of the Black Mountain Army's unpreparedness and sent scouts close to Chang'an City.

When the waiter came to the city wall on horseback, he shouted to the city tower:"I am under the command of General Yuan. Open the city gate quickly."

Zhao Ke, the guard on the city tower, heard the scout report"General Yuan" Despite his identity, he still dared not open the door easily.

At this time, the scout took out Yuan Xi's seal ribbon again and shouted:"I have the seal ribbon as a letter."

Seeing that the scout took out the seal ribbon, Zhao Ke believed for a while, and then said:"Put down the drawbridge and open the city gate."

The scout was Zhao Ke took him into the city.

Zhao Ke went to the city and inspected the seal.

It is indeed Yuan Xi's seal ribbon.

Later, Zhao Ke asked:"General Yuan sent you here, why?"

The scout replied:"You need to see General Huangfu first."

Huangfu Li is now the lord of Chang'an, and Yuan Xi is also the fourth generation and the third prince after all. When talking about things, it’s natural to be equal

"Um."Zhao Ke was not angry and led his scouts to find Huangfu Li.

At this time, Huangfu Li was in the government office, studying Zhou Cheng's plan for the next city.

For now,

Zhou Cheng attacked by force every day, but did not capture Chang'an City.

Next , it should be digging a tunnel.

However, trenches had been dug in the city long ago, and it was impossible to dig a tunnel into the city.

At this time, a soldier came to Huangfu Li and said to Huangfu Li:"My lord, Yuan Xi Sent a scout to see the lord"

"Well, bring it to me. Huangfu Li said.

Then, Yuan Xi's scout was brought to Huangfu Li.

The scout took out Yuan Xi's autographed letter.

Huangfu Li's people had Yuan Xi's notes, so he believed in the authenticity of the letter.

The letter stated that Yuan Xi planned to take advantage of the darkness in three days to attack the Black Mountain Army in the east and attack the west. On the surface, he pretended to attack the Black Mountain Army, but in fact, he directly attacked Zhou Cheng's camp.

At the same time, Huangfu Li was required to send troops to attack the Zhou Army.

The letter also mentioned that if Huangfu Li agreed to this battle, he would send people to light three pillars of smoke at the top of the city in response.

Huangfu Li thought for a while and said:"Whose plan is this?

The scout replied:"This is the plan of military counselor Xu Ziyuan.""

Xu Ziyuan is Xu You.

Xu You has been squeezed out by Guo Tu, Shen Pei, Xin Ping and others in Yuan Shao's adviser group.

And Xu You can't even urinate in the same pot as Jushou, Tian Feng, Feng Ji and others. Therefore

, after Yuan Shao's defeat, Xu You did not support Yuan Tan or Yuan Shang, but came to Yuan Xi.

However, this strategy was not what Xu You thought of.

It was in Xu You's name.

Xu You He was a famous person in Nanyang and had been under Yuan Shao's account. His strategy was relatively credible. To put it simply, it was the celebrity effect, or the so-called 'public knowledge'.

The purpose was to make Huangfu Li believe that the strategy could succeed.

Huangfu Li I thought about the strategy of"making a sound in the east and attacking in the west".

There is indeed a possibility of success.

After all, the Zhou army is arrogant. How could he expect that Yuan Xi would have the courage to sneak attack the camp?

If Zhou Cheng is defeated, the siege of Chang'an will be solved.

Moreover, a paragraph Within a short period of time, Yongzhou will also gain peace.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Li made up his mind and said:"Send people to light three bunches of smoke on the top of the city to respond to Yuan Xianyi"

"Here."The soldier immediately went to prepare.

When he saw the smoke rising from Chang'an City,

Zhou Cheng smiled and said to Jia Xu,"The teacher really has a clever plan. Huangfu Li has already fallen into the trap."

Jia Xu said:"Huangfu Li has little experience and lacks self-judgment."

For counselors to use strategies, they need to target the general.

Although Huangfu Li showed his toughness when defending the city, Huangfu Li was a conservative person.

Conservative people are often not very confident in themselves.

And Huangfu Li After coming from a famous family, when you learn about the strategies of 'celebrities', if you don't adopt them, you will be criticized in the future.

Therefore, Huangfu Li will definitely fall into the trap.
