Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 500 Xu Shu Conspires
It doesn't matter whether Liu Qi is worried or not.

Things that should continue must continue.

The integrated army also marched towards Nanpi, preparing to wipe out the Qi army remaining in the land of Jizhou, and Liu Bei was also there, also to support Nanpi.

And when Liu Qi led the army to Nanpi.

The soldiers sent by Liu Bei to deliver the letter also came to Dongjun.

After all, it was Liu Bei who ordered it himself, and the sender didn't dare to delay any longer, and rushed all the way to Dongjun at the fastest speed without stopping.

Delivered the letter to Guan Yu in person.

And Guan Yu happened to be discussing things with Xu Shu.

In front of Dongjun, there are [-] Han troops led by Huang Zhong and Zhang Xi. Although they are not attacking, they are only stationed outside the city, but this is something that needs to be resolved.

The [-] Han troops have been staying outside the city, which has always been a troublesome thing.

It is not impossible to fight, but the chance of winning is not great, and there may be changes, which will give the Han army an opportunity to take advantage of it.

If you don't fight, it's like a fishbone stuck in your throat, you can't get up or down.

But without good arrangements, they will not act rashly and ask for trouble.

Sent by the soldiers.

The discussion between Guan Yu and Xu Shu also stopped.

"General, this is a letter sent by my lord!" The soldier knelt down on one knee, holding the letter in both hands.

Guan Yu didn't hesitate either, and asked the soldiers to hand over the letter, and after receiving it, he waved his hand.

The soldier also stood up, bent down, and handed the letter to Guan Yu. After Guan Yu took it, he clasped his fists in both hands, saluted, then bent down and backed away until he was near the door. .

He only needs to deliver the letter, and that's it. There is no need to wait for orders, not to mention that Guan Yu waved him away, and he would not stop for anything.

Wait for the soldiers to leave.

Xu Shu also looked at Guan Yu.

He also knew that Liu Bei's letter would definitely not be a trivial matter, and Liu Bei was fighting Liu Qi in Jizhou now, so there was no guarantee that something would happen.

And Guan Yu also opened the envelope, took out the letter, and looked at it seriously with his half-closed Danfeng eyes.

from time to time.

The half-closed Danfeng's eyes also opened wide, flashing brightly, and then recovered.

But from the performance just now, it can also be seen that Guan Yu's heart is not at peace at all, and the things conveyed in the letter are not trivial.

"General, how is it?" Xu Shu asked.

He also noticed the change in Guan Yu's expression. Knowing that such a situation rarely happens to Guan Yu, he also raised his heart.

"Puyang has been lost, my lord was defeated, and more than half of the soldiers and horses were lost. They fled to Nanpi and joined my third brother!" Guan Yu said calmly.

But the expression on his face, and the occasional gleam in his half-closed eyes, still betrayed him.

"This this!"

Xu Shu was also shocked, and didn't know what to say. With the soldiers and horses under Liu Bei's control, they were still standing in Puyang, even if they were surrounded by the Han army, there would be no problems.

Even if the Han army cannot be defeated, there will never be a big defeat, and more than half of the soldiers and horses will be lost.

But now he has heard the words of a great defeat, and more than half of the soldiers and horses were lost. How could he not be surprised, and he didn't understand what happened at all.

Seeing Xu Shu's surprised expression.

Guan Yu didn't find it strange either, and sighed: "My lord, seeing the King of Han withdrawing his troops, he followed the advice of the judge and dispatched troops to intercept the Han army's logistics troops!"

"Is the retreat of the Han army a conspiracy?" Xu Shu said suddenly.

Obviously thought of the key point.

Speech was interrupted.

Guan Yu was not angry either, and continued: "That's right, the retreat of the Han army was indeed a conspiracy. Ma Chao and Pang De were hidden in the logistics force and were caught off guard; and the defenders who surrendered in Puyang also rebelled. Open the city gate and let the Han army enter the city, but the soldiers in the city can't resist, Han Fu died in battle, and Shen Pei took advantage of the chaos to escape!"

heard.

Xu Shu didn't know what to say.

Even if Cao Cao and Sun Quan raised troops to attack Liu Qi at the same time, and Liu Qi suddenly withdrew his troops, it would not be a normal thing to do.

Isn't that just sending it to your door?

"What does Yuan Zhi think should be done now?" Guan Yu asked.

Liu Bei also mentioned in his letter that he asked Xu Shu about his plan, and even if he didn't mention it, he would still ask, after all, he still trusts Xu Shu.

Xu Shu stood up, came to a battle map, and frowned to watch it.

See here.

Guan Yu didn't bother Xu Shu either, he also knew that Xu Shu was analyzing the situation and thinking about corresponding countermeasures.

a while.
"General, now that Puyang has been lost, the lord has fled to Nanpi, and I predict that the King of Han will not lead his army back to help other places, but will continue to lead his army to Nanpi, join Wei Yan in Nanpi, and fight against our army. In order to get rid of the threat of our army, we will return to help other places, and our army is also at a disadvantage!" Xu Shu said seriously.

The voice fell.

Guan Yu said nervously, "Well, what should I do?"

No matter how Liu Bei changes, he still pays more attention to their sworn friendship.

"Don't panic, general!" Xu Shu said, "Now that the general situation is set, our army has suffered heavy losses in Puyang, so it is no longer suitable for fighting the Han army. The best policy is to return to Qingzhou!"

"And the King of Han will not let our army retreat easily, so the general can lead the troops of Dongjun, abandon Dongjun, rush to Nanpi, support the lord, and then return to Qingzhou!"

"Send people to Mount Tai again, let General Chen stand firm, and be able to gather the army at any time, support them and look at Qiao County at the same time; the general will write a letter with his own hand and send it to Tanzhi. If the situation is urgent, you can directly abandon Qiao County. , return to Pengcheng, and garrison with General Mi!"

"In this way, we can guarantee the vitality of our army!"

Done.

Xu Shu also looked at Guan Yu seriously.

"Here." Guan Yu also hesitated, "If the soldiers and horses from Dongjun are transferred, what about the Han army outside the city?"

After all, if Dongjun is abandoned directly, then the [-] Han troops in front of Dongjun may also take action, and they may also support Jizhou.

"General, the Han army outside the city must have plans, and will not support Jizhou. The general only needs to lead his troops to leave in the middle of the night. This is why I asked the general to make Taishan and Qiao County more vigilant!"

Xu Shu paused for a moment, then continued: "And the situation is urgent now, it can be resolved quickly!"

Although Nanpi has more than [-] troops led by Zhang Fei, if Liu Qi leads an army to Nanpi, then things may develop in a bad direction.

In this way, it is the most correct way to decide as soon as possible and let Liu Bei lead his army back to Qingzhou.

Otherwise, the consequences...,.

heard.

"Let the soldiers get ready and leave tonight!" Guan Yu also said decisively.

He also knew what Xu Shu said, and now there was no time for them to hesitate, and he was also afraid that something would happen to Liu Bei and Zhang Fei.

"promise!"

immediately.

So they arranged it secretly, after all, they also had to worry about the spies in the city.
