Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 237 Lost Hearts, Yuan Shu Killed Again

Sky lanterns, the first time you use them, can have an unexpected effect.

But after using it for the first time, it will be more difficult to catch people by surprise the second time.

Although Yuan Shu is naive, when he sees the flying lantern, he will subconsciously recall the past in Fengqiu City, and then guess whether Guan Yu is planning to rob the camp again.

Chen Deng took advantage of Yuan Shu's mentality and used the strategy of exhausting troops against Yuan Shu.

The more Yuan Shu exhausted his troops, the easier it was for them to lose their morale.

With people's hearts scattered, this team is naturally not easy to lead.

That night.

The sky lanterns hang high, eye-catching and dazzling in the night sky.

The praying sky lanterns raised in formation, like wild geese lining up, faintly resemble the word "Yuan".

"Yue Zhang, it's not good!"

Huang Yi stumbled into Yuan Shu's handsome tent, awakening Yuan Shu who was soundly asleep.

"It's the middle of the night, why are you arguing!" Yuan Shu got up angrily.

The days of military career made the pampered Yuan Shu a little uncomfortable.

Yuan Shu hadn't met a beautiful woman for a long time.

Yuan Shu looked down on the women who were captured by the generals.

Yuan Shu just wanted to return to Huainan quickly, drive Cao Cao back, and then return to Shouchun to play music and dance, and enjoy it.

Huang Yi was frightened: "Flying lanterns, flying lanterns appeared in the east!"

Yuan Shu lost all drowsiness in an instant, turned over and got up outside the handsome tent, looking at the sky lanterns slowly rising in the east.

"It's these playthings again!" Yuan Shu said fiercely.

Seeing the sky lantern, Yuan Shu recalled the fiasco of Fengqiu City!
The sky-praying lanterns in four directions became a signal to rob the camp from all sides.

"Guan Yu wants to rob the camp?" Yuan Shu's eyes widened, and he made a judgment in an instant, and quickly ordered: "Send the order, the whole army is on alert! Monitor all directions, and beware of these flying lanterns appearing in other directions."

At this time, Yuan Shu, like a frightened bird, subconsciously thought that Guan Yu was going to rob the camp when he saw the sky lantern.

In the middle of the night, the whole army was suddenly called on alert, whether it was Ji Ling or Li Feng, Le Jiu, Liang Gang and other generals, they were quite puzzled.

But this was an order personally issued by Yuan Shu, and Huang Yi led the whole battalion to urge him. No one dared to disobey and disobey the order, so they could only put on their strength and stay on guard.

After half an hour.

The sky-praying lanterns in the east drifted to nowhere.

However, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses who were waiting for Guan Yu to rob the camp did not arrive.

"Yuan Gong, is there a mistake in the information?" Li Feng was quite tactful, and directly gave Yuan Shu a step.

Yuan Shu snorted coldly: "Treacherous Guan Yu, it seems that this time is a bluff, let all the soldiers go back to the camp to rest."

Done.

Yuan Shu turned his head and returned to the handsome tent.

Seeing Huang Yi coming in, Yuan Shu scolded his head and face: "You idiot! If you didn't spread information randomly, how could you tire our army?"

"If you can't sleep well, how can you hurry tomorrow?"

"Punish you not to sleep tonight and patrol the entire camp."

Huang Yi was quite aggrieved.

I just said that there is a sky lantern, and I didn't say that Yue Zhang and your whole camp should be on alert.

Yuan Shu was so sleepy that he fell asleep after scolding Huang Yi a few words.

Huang Yi sighed secretly, and had no choice but to patrol the entire camp with his personal guards.

Soon.

The soldiers exclaimed: "General, look!"

I saw the sky lantern rising again in the east.

But this time, the sky lanterns are closer than last time, and the character "Yuan" formed is also clearer.

"Oops, it should have just been a signal for Guan Yu to enter the army, but the soldiers and horses have not arrived yet."

"The flying lantern this time is less than three miles away from the camp, so it must be Guan Yu's soldiers sending messages."

Huang Yi had a judgment, came to the handsome tent again to wake up Yuan Shu, and expressed his guess.

"Less than three miles?" Yuan Shu's eyes widened, he quickly got up in armor, and ordered the whole battalion to be alert.

Ji Ling and Le waited for the soldiers, they were almost stupid.

The whole battalion has to be on guard just after falling asleep, isn't this a tossing?

"What happened to Yuan Gong tonight? I was surprised."

"It's not that fellow Huang Yi who said Guan Yu would come to rob the camp."

"How did Huang Yi know that Guan Yu was coming to rob the camp?"

"Look! The ones that fly in the sky are called flying lanterns. The last time Yuan Gong was in Fengqiu City, he was summoned by Liu Bei's flying lanterns and surrounded and robbed the camp."

"This kind of trick can be used once, and no one will believe it the second time."

"Yuan Gong believed it!"

"This"

The generals were speechless for a moment.

Normal people wouldn't believe it, but Yuan Shu did.

It is difficult to disobey the military order, and Yuan Shu shows signs of going berserk again.

Whoever persuades Yuan Shu at this time may be forked out.

All the generals have been with Yuan Shu for a long time, and they also know Yuan Shu's temperament quite well.

Another half an hour passed.

I don't know where the sky lantern was blown to.

If there were crows in the camp, they would definitely call Yuan Shu a fool.

"Yue Zhang?" Huang Yi looked at Yuan Shu cautiously.

Yuan Shu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the nails on both hands were embedded in the skin.

"Guan Yu, how dare you humiliate me like this!"

Yuan Shu understood it.

All the prayers for sky lanterns to rob the camp were just Guan Yu's strategy to delay Yuan Shu's retreat.

This is the same as Yuan Shu's false flag before retreating, it is used to disgust people.

If you haven't slept well this night, it will be difficult to march tomorrow, and it will be difficult to reach the intended destination.

And Guan Yu can recharge his energy to pursue Yuan Shu!

Yuan Shu set up a false flag to let the old, weak and remnant soldiers stop, and the delay was wasted by this exhausted strategy.

"Cheer up, you are not allowed to remove your armor before dawn, and you are not allowed to pay back your debt!"

Although he knew he had been tricked, Yuan Shu didn't want to admit that he had fallen for Guan Yu's trick.

Yuan Shu, who puts face above everything else, returned to the command post after giving orders to the generals.

Too sleepy!
Yuan Shu was too sleepy!
Now that the whole camp is on guard until dawn, Yuan Shu can sleep soundly.

As for whether the soldiers are tired?

Yuan Shu didn't care about the fatigue of the soldiers, as long as he ate and slept well, that was enough.

"Yuan Gong was sleeping soundly by himself, but he told me not to take off the armor and not to return the debt."

"If you stay here until dawn, how will you march tomorrow? Do you want to rest in place for a day?"

"Hehe, do you think Mr. Yuan will let me rest for a day?"

"Let's go back to sleep too, just let those dental guards guard it."

"Yes, I'm too sleepy! I don't want to be so sleepy tomorrow that I can fall down while riding a horse."

"."

Generals Li Feng and Le Jiu returned to their camps one after another.

Whatever Yuan Shu did, Li Feng and other generals will follow suit.

Anyway, the whole battalion is on alert, and they are not bad for generals like them.

Seeing that all the generals had returned to the camp, Ji Ling looked worriedly at the sky lanterns that were gradually disappearing in the sky, finally sighed, and returned to the camp.

I don't know.

When Yuan Shu and other senior generals were returning to the camp to rest, a group of uninvited guests came from Yuan Shu's camp. They were Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others.

These old, weak and remnant soldiers had fathers, brothers and sons in Yuan Shu's camp. The generals of each battalion went back to rest, and no one dared to wake up.

After all, they are all their own.

Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and this group of old and weak soldiers sneaked into Yuan Shu's barracks so easily.

It is conceivable how lax the defense of this barracks is!
All the old, weak and remnant soldiers found their father, brother and son one after another.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion in Yuan Shu's camp.

"Really? Guan Junhou not only didn't kill you, but also gave you porridge to eat, and asked you to go to a nearby city to receive relief food and rice?"

"Can there be a fake? Didn't I live a good life? Let me tell you, Guan Junhou will soon capture Yuan Shu alive, and stay here to wait for death. It's better for us to escape earlier."

"Where can I go if I escape?"

"Of course I'm going to Xuzhou! Did I just tell you in vain? Guan Junhou is Xuzhou Mu. He has already issued an order to let the counties in Xuzhou settle me down."

"It will be too late if you don't leave!"

"Did you see the lantern on that day tonight?"

"I see, it's really tormenting us. Mr. Yuan told us not to take off our armor, not to pay back our debts, and we have to be on guard until dawn."

"Return to Yuan Gong! Yuan Shu doesn't treat me as a human being. He eats and drinks enough, and we can only eat river mussels to satisfy our hunger; he sleeps soundly, and we will have to stay up all night. What is this kind of person selling for him? Fate? There was no chance to escape before, but it would be foolish not to escape now if there is a chance!"

"Father is right, should I ask some fellow countrymen to run together to be safer."

"Since we are fellow villagers, of course we have to run together!"

"."

Similar conversations occurred in many places in Yuan Shu's military camp.

Either the father persuades the son, or the son persuades the father, or brothers persuade each other.

He was originally a strong man recruited by Yuan Shu, and he had no intention of being loyal to Yuan Shu at all.

Now Yuan Shu and the generals are sleeping soundly, the remaining generals, generals, and generals Yamen all have complaints in their hearts.

"Brothers, do you still recognize me, Zhou Tai?"

another place.

Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin found some old acquaintances.

These old acquaintances are all low-level generals in Yuan Shu's army.

"Zhou Tai, do you still dare to come back? You are not afraid that General Le will cut you alive."

"Have you found your younger brother? Seeing you like this, you seem very happy. I think your younger brother is fine."

"Hey, if you run away, I will feel uncomfortable waiting. I can't sleep until dawn."

"The generals slept well, I can only wait for the young general to be patient."

"."

Yuan generals complained one by one.

Zhou Tai smiled coldly: "Brothers, Yuan Shu doesn't treat you as human beings, do you still want to treat Yuan Shu as dogs?"

All the generals were silent.

A general said: "Zhou Tai, if you have something to say, just say it. We are all from the same county, so why would we betray you?"

Zhou Tai glanced around and lowered his voice: "To tell the truth, brothers, Gong Yi and I have already joined Guan Junhou, and now we are both the infantry dubos of the strongest battalion in Qingzhou who entered the camp first."

A sigh sounded.

"Uncle Cai, the official is too young."

"Yes, yes, with Zhou Tai's ability, you are more than enough to be a general, but Du Bo is too poor."

"Could you be trying to persuade me to vote for Guan Yu? You can only be a Dubo, can't we just be pawns?"

"It's better to go home and hunt."

Zhou Tai smiled lightly: "Although he is only a Dubo, there is a law in Qingzhou. Dubo can let his nephew go to Qingzhou to learn Chinese characters and learn scriptures from great Confucians."

"Ordinary first-board soldiers need to make meritorious service to get this opportunity."

"If you have done enough, you can let your nephew attend Kang Chenggong's lecture."

"Even if I make great contributions, my younger brother can still be Kang Chenggong's disciple."

"You all must be very clear about what it means to be a disciple of Lord Kang Cheng!"

The generals immediately put away their contempt.

The disciples of the world's great Confucian Zheng Xuan, that group of generals who were born in Huainan's powerful background, are beyond reach!
"Zhou Tai, don't lie to us. How can you be a disciple of Lord Kang Cheng?"

"It's not easy to make such a great achievement."

"Zhou Tai, what exactly do you want to do?"

"If you don't speak clearly, don't let us work for you."

Zhou Tai clasped his arms around his chest, and said quietly: "As long as you all help me capture Yuan Shu alive and make my younger brother Kang Chenggong's disciple, from now on, I, Zhou Tai, will eat all I can, and I will not lose the benefits of my brothers!"

In an instant.

It was quiet.

Capture Yuan Shu alive?

How dare you think!
"Zhou Tai, are you serious? Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I'm serious! Fame is right in front of you, if you don't take it, wouldn't it be cheaper for others?"

"Just us, how can we defeat Duke Yuan's personal guards? Ji Ling is not a good person."

"Ji Ling and I will deal with Gong Yihui, and you are responsible for capturing Yuan Shu alive, but I'm ugly to say first, the credit for capturing Yuan Shu alive can only be attributed to me, Zhou Tai!"

Zhou Tai's strength and self-confidence made the generals even more suspicious.

"Brothers, Yuan Shu is at the end of his rope."

"Liu Xun and others were defeated by Cao Cao in Yicheng. Now Cao soldiers are blocking them, and the soldiers of Guan Junhou are chasing after them."

"You guys, do you really want to be buried with Yuan Shu?"

"A man stands between heaven and earth, if he can't gain fame and honor his ancestors, what's the point of going underground to meet his ancestors?"

Zhou Tai pointed directly at people's hearts and completely dispelled the doubts of these young generals.

To be bullied by Yuan Shu and to be buried with Yuan Shu is too useless!

"Yuan Shu bullied me and humiliated me. If I still don't resist, I'll be as cowardly as a bastard tortoise."

"Brother Zhou Tai, just do as you say, you have made great achievements, don't forget me waiting for brothers."

"This life is temporarily lent to Brother Zhou."

"It's better to be rich than to die anyway."

Seeing that all the generals were persuaded, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin looked at each other and revealed their specific plan.

"To capture Yuan Shu, the tens of thousands of Yuan Shu's troops must first be defeated without a fight."

"Brothers, listen to me."

Zhou Tai explained the plan to the generals in detail, and the generals were excited after hearing it.

This plan was prepared by Chen Deng for Zhou Tai.

Let Zhou Tai want to spread rumors wantonly among Yuan Shu's army after persuading his old acquaintances, slander Li Fengle as a general, instigate against Yuan Shu's resentful soldiers, and so on.

With the cooperation of the generals, the anxiety in Yuan Shu's camp became more and more intense.

soon.

After the first soldier escaped from the camp, a large number of soldiers fled one after another.

Some soldiers even went directly to the supply camp to grab food!

Less than half an hour.

Yuan Shu's barracks immediately roared!
The instigators, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, brought their old acquaintances and began to move closer to the commander-in-chief.

While moving closer, they stopped the chaotic soldiers.

And all this happened to be seen by Huang Yi.

"Who are you?"

"General Le is under Zhou Tai."

"Jiang Qin."

"Chen Shi."

"."

Huang Yi saw that Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were physically strong, and all the rebels they encountered were knocked down by one move, and he was overjoyed: "From now on, you will be my personal guards."

"I am Yuan Gong's son-in-law, help me quickly, and when I see my father-in-law, there will be many rewards!"
