The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 616 Fighting wits and courage
Zhao Yun is very patient. He is not afraid that the Son of Heaven will quietly take his performances seriously. After all, this matter is well known around Luoyang. Please play—and make the commotion even bigger, so that everyone in the world will know about it, so that Liu Xie can't hide.

…………

The Son of Heaven did not return to Luoyang, so Xu Shu was naturally not qualified to reply to this letter of advice for him. After a few days, the Son of Heaven's army on the Eastern Expedition finally arrived in Luoyang.

As soon as they entered Luoyang City, Xu Shu and Lu Yu showed Zhao Yun's invitation to Liu Xie. Liu Xie didn't see it well.

Later, Lu Yu told Liu Xie about Xu Shu's detailed analysis of Zhao Yun's strategy. The more Liu Xie listened, the more trembling he felt.

"Zhao Yun...Zhao Yun is trying to force me to death!" Liu Xie tremblingly looked at the letter in his hand, and tremblingly said: "Zhu Qing, what can you do to deal with it?"

After listening to Liu Xie's question, the officials couldn't help but explode, and there was an aura of horror from inside and outside the hall.

Everyone discussed a lot, and after discussing for a long time, there was no countermeasure. Indeed, at this moment, Zhao Yun has an unparalleled absolute advantage in terms of righteousness and military strength. At this moment, no matter how late the gun is, it will not help in the end.

The hall was full of noise, buzzing one after another, endless, like a swarm of flies in the toilet, disturbing people's headaches.

Liu Xie was already holding his breath in his heart, seeing the ministers bumping into each other like headless chickens, but it still couldn't achieve any effect, then he slapped the dragon case heavily, and said angrily: "Shut up all of them!" Mouth! You bunch of useless bastards, all court ministers, all eat the state salary, but when things come to an end, there is not even one person who can give me a solid idea. With so many of you, you can't even compare with Zhao Yun, a butcher? What do I need you for!"

All the ministers lowered their heads and remained silent when they heard the words, all of them blushed, looking rather ashamed.

Liu Xie panted heavily, turned his head to the silent Xu Shu when he was young, took a deep breath, and said in pleading words: "Xu Aiqing, what do you think, can break Zhao Yun's strategy in this memorial?" ?”

Xu Shu turned his head and glanced at Liu Xie, but saw that His Majesty no longer had the arrogance and arrogance before he sent troops, and now there was a bit more pleading look in his eyes and face, looking weak and helpless, very pitiful, just like he was in the past. The appearance of Xuchang being bullied by Cao thief.

Xu Shu sighed secretly, bitter in his heart.

Forget it, let's help him again.

Xu Shu thought for a while in silence, before he said: "To be honest, Your Majesty, Zhao Yun's stratagems are actually very powerful, and they are not as powerful as the hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command. All the stratagems are based on strength. We Just to defeat Zhao Yun's plan, do you think he will withdraw his troops back to Chang'an so easily?"

Liu Xie was taken aback when he heard the words, and after thinking for a while, he said in a low voice: "Then what do you mean?"

"What I mean, please play or something, is just Zhao Yun's foreshadowing. Unless His Majesty surrenders, he will still attack Luoyang City in the end! Therefore, the fundamental strategy, we still have to base ourselves on war!"

The Son of Heaven thought for a while when he heard the words, nodded and said: "That's the reason. Speaking of it, whether Zhao Yun's plan succeeds or not, we still have to fight!"

Xu Shu cupped his hands and said, "For Zhao Yun's memorial, Your Majesty doesn't have to answer him directly. You only need to reply and reprimand him for the crime of forcing him to enter the capital without his life! Count his crimes and play sloppy with him. Anyway, the skin has been torn, and there is no way to deal with it." It's more like tearing it apart!"

Liu Xie nodded upon hearing this, and said, "Then what then?"

"Then? Then, all the military and horse generals in the city will be handed over to one person to be in charge of the city. Luoyang is an ancient imperial capital. Most! The city’s garrison is about [-]. As long as it is commanded properly, it cannot be defeated without ten times the force! Regardless of Zhao Yun’s large number of troops, as long as His Majesty trusts me, the [-] garrison is under the command of a minister. He may not be able to capture Luoyang City !"

Not only Liu Xie was stunned, but all the courtiers were also stunned.

Hand over the command of all the soldiers and generals to Xu Shu alone...

Even if he was the hero who saved the emperor from Xuchang, he is not a direct line after all. The emperor's army has always been in charge of Liu Xie himself. If there is a mistake before the battle, who can guarantee Xu Shu's loyalty?
Liu Xie hesitated, turned his head to look at Fu Wan, and said, "What do you think?"

Fu Wan thought for a while, then smiled helplessly, and said to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty, apart from Xu Shu, who among the civil servants and generals in the court can take on this important task?"

Hearing this, Liu Xie thought about it for a while, and finally nodded.

***************************
According to Xu Shu's plan, the emperor immediately replied to Zhao Yun's request. The letter did not directly answer Zhao Yun's three requests, but reprimanded Yuan Shang and Zhao Yun, the treacherous ministers, for [-] rounds.

Especially Yuan Shang's family, Liu Xie seems to have found a vent, leaving no room for the old Yuan's family. When corruption perverts the law, Taiwei Yuan Tang is mediocre, Sikong Yuanchang is hypocritical, Situ Yuan An is a dog...all the trivial things are listed one by one, and they are all digging on the graves of the ancestors.

The Yuan Shang himself described in the edict has inherited the fine traditions of the old Yuan family from all generations, and also has many unique traits such as treacherous nature, unscrupulousness, cheating, chasing dogs and chickens, and plucking wild geese. A number of exclusive skills are indeed living teaching materials with the most negative educational significance born under the Confucian social thought.

…………

…………

When Zhao Yun saw the edict, he couldn't help being happy.

"Okay, it seems that the Son of Heaven doesn't have any skills at all. He knows how to avoid the truth and pretend to be false. It's a good material for a spat." Zhao Yun circulated the imperial edict to all his cronies.

Wang Xiong, Zuo Zhonglang with ten eagle feathers and arrows, glanced at it, handed the letter to the side in disdain, and said with his mouth curled up: "The people in Luoyang are just doing these two things, just fight if you can. What a skill!"

The letter finally fell into Wen Hui's hands. Wen Hui was good at resourcefulness. After reading it once, he said: "This method must have come from Xu Shu's hands. The Son of Heaven has no such resourcefulness."

Zhao Yun nodded with a smile, and said: "That's right, the spies came to report that Luoyang's defense and troops are now in the hands of Xu Shu alone. It seems that it will be even more difficult to break Luoyang."

Wang Xiong said unhappily: "Why did the governor make such a statement? Thinking about what Luoyang has, it is only the [-] emperors' new army recruited in recent years, which is not even a fraction of what we have. It will be nothing more than Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Huangfu Jianshou and other low-level people, except for Tong Fei, how can anyone stand on the stage?"

Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "Brother Wang's words are wrong. Do you still remember the Battle of Chang'an back then? At that time, our army was less than [-], while Yan Xing and Song Jian had more than [-] soldiers, but there was still no attack. After all, this battle of fortifications is no worse than a confrontation between two armies. As long as the general is dispatched properly and uses the power of geography, one can easily defeat ten. What's more, Luoyang is the eastern capital, and its strength is no less than that of Chang'an, and Xu Shuzhi will surely not be inferior to Hao Zhao , this battle is only superficially easy to fight.”

Wang Ping stood aside and said: "In this case, how about we surround him without attacking him, and trap him to death in Luoyang with an army of tens of thousands? After all, they only have one city in Luoyang. After the siege, there is no food support, and we have the entire The land in Guanzhong is the backing..."

Zhao Yun thought for a while, and said: "It is feasible, but the problem is that the delay in doing so is too long. After a long time, I am afraid that there will be changes in the rear."

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, they didn't understand why, only Wen Huiruo realized something, and said, "Isn't it Liu Bei who the governor is referring to?"

Zhao Yun smiled and said nothing, stood up after thinking for a while, and said: "According to the plan, I will write two more introductory regulations and submit them. Luoyang!"

"promise."

********************
Xuchang.

On the Luoyang side, the Guanzhong Army and the Tianzi Army each had their own strengths and played lively, but on the Xuchang side of the Central Plains, it was relatively quiet.

Yuan Jun faced off against Guan Yunchang. One was the most famous prince in the world, and the other was a mighty and powerful general in China. I thought that the confrontation between the two would produce fierce sparks, but who would have thought that Yuan Shang's soldiers and horses had not yet waited. Arriving in Xuchang, Guan Yu's Jingzhou army retreated halfway, and they retreated cleanly and without delay.

After making a big circle, the two sides didn't even hand in their hands.

In the southern suburbs of Xuchang, Yuan Junshuai's tent.

"My lord, the spies are here to report that Guan Yu's army has entered the territory of Jingzhou at this moment, it is not a strategy to lure the enemy."

Yuan Shang tapped lightly on the table, heaved a long sigh, and said: "Everyone says Guan Yu is righteous, loyal, and keeps his promises. In my opinion, it's all bullshit! When two armies confront each other, let them go if they don't make a sound. I'm a pigeon, why is he spending my fart like it's Sunday?"

Sima Yi rubbed his chin at the bottom, and said: "Guan Yu is arrogant by nature, and he won't lose when he loses. If he retreated because he was afraid of the power of the lord, I wouldn't believe it if he was killed, but the world can order Guan Yu to move." , there is only one person, and that is Liu Bei! My lord, in my opinion, Guan Yu's feigned attack on Xuchang must have been ordered by Liu Bei, and I'm afraid there will be changes on the Hanzhong side."

Yuan Shang nodded, and said: "I'm thinking about it too, but I really can't move now. Everything in the Central Plains has not been properly arranged. On the Hebei side, there are still Li Ru and Tuoba Liwei's aftermath work. Finally, how will these two people be dealt with? Li Ru is okay to say, Tuoba Liwei has soldiers and generals in his hands, so he needs to figure out a safe way... Although Guan Yu has returned to Jingzhou, it may not be when he will make a comeback. They are all places where people use soldiers, even if something happens in Hanzhong, I can't go there, and the Chinese army can't move."

"Then what does my lord want to do?" Sima Yi asked back after hearing the words.

"Entrust Zhao Yun with full power, now I can only trust him... and Jia Xu, let that old man go to Luoyang. Although he may not be willing to do his best, he may not help Zhao Yun. The more places that border on other places, the more things happen."

Sima Yi said: "Don't worry, my lord. Tian Feng has already begun to expand the army when he returned to Yecheng. Now we add the Central Plains and Guanzhong to Hebei. We need money, food, food, and population. Expand the army." It’s just that in a short while, after the soldiers and horses have been assembled, they will go south in one fell swoop, and the world will surely be settled if Sun Liu is recovered.”
