Jian'an six years,

mid March.

Jizhou, inside Liyang city.

Yuan Shao looked at Xun Chen who had returned from the hall, and after hearing what he had said, Yuan Shao became angry in an instant, and immediately roared: "Okay, Cao, I call him to kill Chu Feng for the common great cause of the future, but he deceives people too much .”

"300,000 military rations, where can I steal so much military rations for him?"

"At the front line alone, the military rations are already in short supply, and there is no manpower to deliver them to him." Yuan Shao shook his sleeves, full of annoyance, this Cao Cao seemed to him to be taking advantage of the fire.

"That's right, my lord. In my opinion, Bandit Cao is extorting money. Even if our army gave him rations, he may not be able to send all his troops. Instead of counting on Cao Cao's reinforcements, it is better for us to repel Chu Feng with our own hands."

"Although the Chu army is tyrannical, the general will ask himself if he can fight against him." Han Meng strode forward. Since Yan Liangwenchou died in battle and Gao Lan and Zhang He surrendered to the enemy, Han Meng has become Yuan Shao's number one general.

Yuan Shao frowned. Although he also wanted to show off his pride, he still knew how much Han Meng was worth. Expecting Han Meng to beat Chu Feng was nothing short of fantasy.

"My lord, Cao Cao has 150,000 soldiers and horses. With their assistance, the odds of this victory will be greatly increased. But without their assistance, it may still be very difficult to win this battle if Chu Feng is contained in Luoyang."

Xun Chen quickly remonstrated.

Although 300,000 grain and grass is indeed a lot, it is not impossible to mobilize so much grain and grass in exchange for Cao Cao's reinforcements.

Yuan Shao hesitated, he was weighing the pros and cons.

"Ziyuan, what do you think?" Finally, Yuan Shao looked at Xu You and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Returning to my lord, as Xun Chen said, with Cao Cao's help, we can get twice the result with half the effort, but now that Cao Cao is talking like a lion, our army does not have such food and grass assistance, so it is obviously impossible."

"How about this, send someone to negotiate with Cao Cao, and give him [-] stones of food and grass. Our army doesn't have any more. If he agrees, then give it to him. If he doesn't want it, then treat it as if he doesn't exist!"

"In any case, our army has assembled hundreds of thousands of cavalry from Wuhuan, the Xiongnu. Compared with the Chu army, our army still has an advantage. Cao Cao's non-interference in the affairs of the Central Plains is also good for us."

"However, my subordinates believe that as long as the lord's attitude is tough, Cao Cao will not refuse. After all, if our army is defeated again, the whole of Hebei may fall into Chu Feng's hands, and Cao Cao dare not see this situation."

Xu You immediately analyzed and judged.

Yuan Shao nodded. Indeed, what Xu You said was not unreasonable. If you give too much, you can give [-]. You can still get [-]. If Cao Cao has the heart, he will not dare to see himself defeated.

"It's justified, it's justified!"

"In this way, Xun Chen has worked hard for you, and then went to Luoyang, told Cao Cao, and said that he would give up to [-]. If you don't want to, I will definitely fight Chu Feng on time at the beginning of April. If you lose him by then, Cao Cao won't even think about it. Be alone!"

Yuan Shao said sonorously, a little bit of a rascal.

Threatening Cao Cao directly with his own success or failure, the key point is that Cao Cao is really afraid. Once Yuan Shao loses, it is only a matter of time before Cao Cao loses.

"Promise!" Xun Chen immediately agreed.

Full of bitterness, he was exhausted from running back and forth.

But at this moment, a rough voice sounded: "Why is Leader Yuan so popular? My little brother is here to seek justice for Leader Yuan."

Saying that, a figure entered.

Ta Dun, the leader of Wuhuan, his face is full of joy at this moment.

Earlier, he helped Yuan Shao, did nothing, and went back to the two counties, which greatly increased his prestige among the tribes in Wuhuan. This time, he even gathered [-] warriors,

More than last time.

This time he came to Youzhou,

Youzhou is indeed too fragrant. He wants to move his tribe to Youzhou as soon as possible, so that instead of living the life of hunger and cold, he will settle down and farm the land for a living like the Han people.

"Ta Dun, you're here? Why didn't you let the servants tell you so that I can go out of the city to meet you?" Yuan Shao was overjoyed for a moment, and stepped forward to pat Ta Dun's shoulder with a joyful expression.

He's at the end of his rope now,
We can only pin our hopes on Wuhuan and the Huns.

"Hey, I let them be publicized!" Ta Dun waved his hands, and asked curiously: "Just now, I heard Yuan Gong you were angry from a long distance, but what kind of trick did Chu Feng use? I will help you avenge."

"Leader Tadun, the Chu army on the other side is the one who worries my king. The Chu army is tyrannical. I'm afraid it's not easy to take revenge!" Feng Ji sneered.

At this moment, directly dismantle the road.

You know, before Wuhuan came to help, but it was of no use. On the contrary, it also caused Yuan Shao to lose tens of thousands of elites, and his vitality was greatly injured from then on.

"Chu Jun? Hmph, in my opinion, Chu Jun can be completely destroyed by me. This time, when he entered the Central Plains, he brought Yuan Gong to destroy Chu Feng!" Tadun sneered, not paying attention to Chu Feng at all.

"Oh? Leader Tadun is so confident? Could it be that he has a clever way to defeat the enemy? You know, your Wuhuan Iron Cavalry was of no importance in the final battle last time, which led to my lord's disastrous defeat."

Feng Ji snorted coldly, and said directly.

"Hmph, Chu Feng didn't even dare to fight with our army. He just used some monsters to scare off our cavalry. This time, I have found the key to defeating the enemy and winning."

Ta Dun didn't take it seriously, and said proudly.

"Oh Huo, how do we defeat the enemy and win?" Yuan Shao regained his energy in an instant and asked.

"Duke Yuan, please look!" Tadu said, took out a fluffy thing from his bosom, and then explained: "Gong Yuan, although this thing is not conspicuous, it can be stuffed into the ear of a war horse."

"In this way, Chu Feng's strange monster is nothing to mention, and the war horse will not be afraid of the sound. At that time, slaughtering the Chu army will be like killing chickens." Ta Dun said with clenched fists full of confidence.

"Is this really effective?" Yuan Shao asked curiously.

"Of course, I have already sent someone to try it out. Putting this thing on the war horse, even if you suddenly beat the gongs and drums next to him, you won't be afraid. Last time, I let Chu Feng take advantage of the loopholes. This time, I will definitely bloodbath the Chu army to revitalize them." Military prestige."

Ta Dun's voice is forthright, eager to try.

"Okay, very good, with this object, maybe there is no need to be afraid of the foreign object made by Chu Feng." Yuan Shao was happy, and he saw hope in an instant, and his heart swelled a little involuntarily.

"Ziyuan, where is the leader of the Xiongnu?" Yuan Shao couldn't help asking.

"Hey, Duke Yuan, kill the Chu army, why wait for the Xiongnu, my Wuhuan iron cavalry supplemented by Duke Yuan's soldiers and horses can kill them." Ta Dun waved his hands a little displeased.

This time, he wanted to kill Chu Feng with his own hands.

That being the case, how can we find the Huns again, isn't this a slap in the face!

"This..." Yuan Shao hesitated, he was overshadowed by Chu Feng, he didn't dare to agree hastily for a while, he mainly wanted to wait for Cao Cao's reinforcements, when the time comes, both sides attacking Chu Feng will surely die.

"Duke Yuan, don't worry about it. The Chu army is definitely not your opponent in this battle. Don't worry, Duke Yuan." Tadun waved his hands, hurrying to make an appointment, and I'll beat Chu Feng to death for you.

Yuan Shao glanced at Xu You, trying to make Xu You decide.

"My lord, even if Chu Feng wants to fight decisively, it is impossible for him to be in Puyang. In this case, why not wait for the opportunity to cross the river first, and after capturing Puyang, march into Kaifeng and fight Chu Feng to the death!"

"As for the Cao army and the Xiongnu army, they can act according to their plans." Xu You clasped his fists and said with deep eyes. The Wuhuan reinforcements have arrived, and the possibility of Chu Feng sending troops to help is even lower.

That being the case, he had no choice but to abandon Puyang.

But Puyang has the weapons and food that he has hoarded, so he will definitely lose a lot if he abandons it like this.

"But, Cao Cao will act according to the plan, and immediately start arranging the matter of crossing the river. After crossing the river, he will immediately surround Puyang and make Puyang an isolated city."

Yuan Shao looked solemn and said immediately.

"Promise!" All civil and military personnel agreed together.

"Yuan Gong, if you help you destroy Chu Feng this time, then Youzhou will not break your promise. This time I brought [-] elites here, and I must destroy Chu Feng so that I can move to Youzhou."

Ta Dun's eyes flashed, and Lang smiled.

"Don't worry, these things are indispensable to you. As long as you can help me exterminate Chu Feng, not to mention Youzhou, even the northern part of Jizhou, it's fine to give you a part, but the premise is that you help me win."

Yuan Shao said it directly to death.

The reason why he granted the land last time was so that it could still be used this time, but this time, in Yuan Shao's view, was the last time.

"Naturally, don't worry about Mr. Yuan. I've thought about it for a long time when I went back. The only thing Chu Feng relies on to deal with the cavalry is the monster with strange noises."

"Now that I have deciphered this thing, no matter how brave Chu Feng is, he can hardly defeat my hundred thousand cavalry." Ta Dun patted his sturdy chest with a reassuring expression.

But when fighting against Chu Feng, Yuan Shao always felt that he had no idea, and his heart was flustered. It is possible that Chu Feng's treacherous and cunning image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which made Yuan Shao instinctively think of this.

"Okay, let's go down and get ready!" Yuan Shao waved his hand, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, ready to cross the river by boat at any time, as long as he crossed the Yellow River, he could use the mobility of the cavalry to force the crossing.

"My lord, Puyang defender Lu Mengfei is just like an idler. After following Chu Feng, he made countless contributions. He is also one of the five good generals. I am worried that he will send people to harass our army while we are crossing the river."

Xu You quickly remonstrated.

"Harassment? Hehe, he only has [-] soldiers in Puyang City, so he dares to leave the city to fight? Even if he dares to go out of the city for a decisive battle, how can he defend against my hundreds of thousands of troops?"

Yuan Shao frowned, but he was also thinking in his heart, after all, crossing the river was not something that would happen in a short while.

"My lord, even though that's the case, just in case, it's better to let out the wind and say that our army will cross the river in Liyang and Yin'an. If Lu Meng wants to attack them halfway, he will definitely not miss this opportunity."

"At the same time, we can arrange for people to cross the river from Hua County, under the cover of Liyang Yin'an. Lu Meng certainly couldn't think of it, and even if he thought about it, he would be powerless. At that time, the three armies will be able to surround Puyang."

Xu You raised his eyebrows and suggested with cupped fists.

Yuan Shao stroked his beard and nodded. He was quite satisfied with this arrangement. At the very least, he had a backup to ensure that after crossing the river, Puyang could be captured. This was extremely important, especially when the Xiongnu should arrive.

"Okay, just do what Ziyuan said."

"Also, send a lot of people to urge Yuan Tan and the Xiongnu to reinforce the army!" Yuan Shao waved his hand and said immediately.

"No!" Someone answered.

----

In a blink of an eye, a few days later.

A piece of news spread like wildfire.

On the other side of the Yellow River, in the city of Puyang.

Lu Meng's many years in the army has made him a lot more mature and stable. His skin is slightly darker, but he is a little more resolute and cold.

In particular, Lu Meng cares little about money and is good at raising scholars.
It also made the soldiers under his command extremely respectful and admirable.

On the top of the city, Puyang has been reinforced over and over again. At this moment, there are still soldiers hoarding rolling logs and stones in the aisle, ready for the next big battle at any time!

At this moment, Lv Meng led his lieutenant general to patrol the city with his sword in hand, adjusted the collars of the soldiers from time to time, patted the shoulders, or gave a few words of encouragement, but gave these soldiers endless faith.

"General, a letter from Yuan Junnei's secret agent!" At this moment, a general came quickly.

Lu Meng took the letter, glanced at it quickly, and after reading it, Lu Meng's brows became tighter and darker, his eyes were deep, and he said in a deep voice: "Hmph, is Yuan Shao finally uneasy? How dare you cross the river just because Wuhuan came?"

"General, is Yuan Shao going to cross the river?" the general asked.

"Well, Wuhuan has [-] cavalry, and Yuan Shaoan can't stand it any longer, and is preparing to cross the river in Liyang and Yin'an." Lu Meng repeated with a frown, but he kept thinking in his heart.

"Then what should our army do?" the general asked.

"You can't let him cross the river. Iron cavalry has no advantage in landing on the beach. The main thing is to rely on boat masters and infantry. If you let him go ashore, Puyang will be surrounded by him sooner or later."

Lu Meng frowned and said.

"In this way, immediately send a letter to our navy and ask them to deploy troops to wait around Liyang. As long as he dares to cross the river, I will dare to attack him halfway and send them to feed the fish and shrimp."

"No!" The general nodded immediately, he could see that his general was angry, and he probably wanted to take this opportunity to confront Yuan Shao head-on.

"General, do you want to ask the lord for instructions on this matter?" Another general asked.

"Send someone on a flying horse to inform, but the orders of the generals abroad will not be accepted. Yuan Jun may cross the river at any time, and there is no time to wait for a reply." Lu Meng waved his hands with some determination.

"But general, what if this is Yuan Shao's plan? If Puyang is lost, how will the general treat the master?" the general asked with a frown.

"Yuan Shao's main force is in Liyang, so we can ask the scouts to do more patrols along the coast. As for the lord, I will do my best, and you don't need to worry about fighting the enemy with all your strength."

Lu Meng frowned, full of murderous intent.

"Okay!" The general couldn't say anything more, after all, Lu Meng was right, this place is still six or seven hundred miles away from Kaifeng, and it would take several days to deliver the message even if the horse galloped wildly.

"Go down and get ready, the big battle is not far away!" Lu Meng waved his hands and said with deep eyes.

"No!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Looking at the clouds in the sky, Lu Meng's eyes were firm. Chu Feng trusted him so much and entrusted him to guard the frontier. No matter what, he would guard Puyang well.

Even if Wuhuan came or the Xiongnu came, he would turn these people into dry bones and bury them here forever.

Thinking of this, he tightened his five fingers holding the hilt of the sword, and his knuckles turned white, which shows that he hates the sky, especially that Yuan Shao introduced the Huns and Wuhuan for his own self-interest.

Hateful, spit, and punishable!
