Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 369

Yuan Tan took down Mount Tai without bloodshed, and then returned to the army and forced his jaws to retreat. Smug in his heart, he sent Xin Ping's younger brother Xin Pi to Jizhou to report victory to Yuan Shao.Because Xin Ping went to Beihai to visit Bing Yuan, and Guo Tu and Shen Pei regarded them as enemies, so Yuan Tan had to send Xin Pi to Jizhou.

However, Jizhou at this time is already undercurrents.Yuan Shao fell ill and was very ill.After entering July, Jizhou was extremely hot, and Yuan Shao's old illness recurred, and he couldn't afford it.

Yuan Shao fell ill and was too busy with the trial match and Feng Ji. The two often got together to discuss how to deal with Yuan Shao's death. The two colluded with Yuan Shao's stepmother, Yuan Shang's mother Liu in private, and kept abreast of Yuan Shao's condition. and dynamic.Shocked by the presence of Xun Chen, Chen Lin, Wang Xiu and others, the two dare not be too arrogant.

Yuan Shao received Simpi while lying on his sickbed. "Tan'er really lived up to my expectations, regained Mount Tai, and eliminated my major trouble. I am very relieved." Yuan Shaoqiang said energetically.

With his own body, Yuan Shao felt that he might not be able to survive this summer. Yuan Tan's victory made him see hope again. Only Yuan Tan can defend Jizhou.Although he loves Yuan Shang the most, he is definitely not Cao Cao's opponent with Yuan Shang's current ability. Yuan Shang has never led an army, which is the biggest shortcoming, and what Jizhou needs now is a master who can lead an army to resist Cao Cao.If I live a few more years, maybe it will be a different situation.

But Yuan Shao also knew the conflict between Guo Tu and the judge, and suddenly let Yuan Tan take over, the conflict in Jizhou would intensify. "Liyang is the gateway to Hebei. I have sent brothers Lu Xiang and Lu Kuang to guard it, but you are still worried. Go back and tell Tan Er that Guo Tu will stay in Qingzhou and he will lead the army into Liyang."

In desperation, Yuan Shao came up with a way to break the situation: transfer Yuan Tan back to Jizhou under the pretext of being stationed in Liyang, and then slowly transfer the power to Yuan Tan.

"Yes." Simpi said, "the eldest son is here, Li Yang is safe and sound."

"You and Guo Tu followed me from Yingchuan to Bohai Sea, occupying Jizhou, and occupying Hebei. You have contributed a lot to Tan'er, and you will treat me like Tan'er. Tan'er is impatient, so you should advise him carefully and think twice before doing things."

"I will do my best to assist the eldest son. My lord, please cultivate with peace of mind and recover as soon as possible." Xin Ping felt very uncomfortable, no matter how he heard Yuan Shao's words, there was a taste of asking for Gu.

"Let's go." Yuan Shao waved Xin Pi away, summoned up his energy to call the director Chen Lin, stepped back and said, "Kong Zhang will draw up the will for me."

"Ah, why is my lord in such a rush to draft a will? My lord just got sick by accident. As long as I ask a famous doctor for diagnosis and treatment, I will recover more soon..."

"You draft it first and store it in your place in case you don't need it. Once I die, I will take Yuan Tan as the chariot general and the lord of the four states. Yuan Shang is the marquis of Ye and lives in Jizhou. Xi'er is stationed in Youzhou, and Gao Gan is Bingzhou Assassin."

Yuan Shao spoke very briefly, and Chen Lin organized the words naturally.He clearly stated that Yuan Tan was the master of the four prefectures, and Yuan Xi and Gao Gan were in Youzhou and Bingzhou respectively, but he did not mention Jizhou and Qingzhou. An idle Lord.

Chen Lin was quick-witted, and handed it to Yuan Shao at the side of the couch. Yuan Shao took out the seal of General He Jizhou Mu from his bosom, stamped it, and hid the suicide note in a secret box, and Chen Lin took it away.

Yuan Shao thought he was meticulous, but he never thought that his wife Liu Shi was eavesdropping behind him.Since Yuan Shao was seriously ill, whenever he received his subordinates, Mrs. Liu would definitely hide and eavesdrop.Hearing Yuan Shao's will, she was scared out of her wits, Yuan Tan became the master, what will happen to his son Yuan Shang, and how Yuan Tan will treat her in the future.Although Mrs. Liu is pretty, she has a cruel heart.

Mrs. Liu quietly withdrew, and immediately sent someone secretly to summon Shen Pei and Feng Ji to discuss countermeasures.

Shenpei and Fengji looked at each other in blank dismay, how could this be!Yuan Shao's thoughts were still on Yuan Tan, if Yuan Tan became the master, Guo Tu would surely rise to prominence, and the two of them would die without a place to bury them.If Guo Tu catches any clues, the two can be convicted, and there is no need to find any ready-made clues, such as Tian Feng's death.

"Don't worry, Mistress, the will is with Chen Lin. We just need to keep an eye on Chen Lin so that he doesn't have a chance to take it out." Feng Ji said.

"After I went back, I also drafted a will, making Mr. Yuan Shang the lord of the four states. The mistress needs to steal the seal and ribbon while the lord is asleep." The examiner continued: "Please stay in the mansion, Mr. Yuan Shang, and don't go anywhere. Once the lord dies, we will be the first to greet Mr. Yuan Shang, and everything will be over. We also ask the mistress to accompany the lord at all times, in case there is any change."

The three of them had made up their minds and dispersed.

When Yuan Tan received Xin Pi's report, he was overjoyed when he heard that his father praised him and let him lead the army into Liyang.At this time, Xin Ping had turned back from Beihai, and Yuan Tan left [-] troops to Guo Tu to garrison Qingzhou. Lieutenants Liu Xun, Zhang Yan, and Ma Kai commanded [-] troops to station in his headquarters in Pingyuan County.He commanded [-] troops and took Xin Ping and Xin Pi to Liyang.

Guo Tu said: "My lord's move is very meaningful. I think my lord is already interested in you. You should make another achievement. You just have to be careful not to interfere with the trial and appointment."

Yuan Tan chuckled, stroked his saber and said, "Do they want to know if my saber is sharp?"

"The soldiers of Jizhou are mostly under the command of Jiang Yiqu and the second general of Wangmen. Both of them and Shenpei were Han Fu's subordinates, and they have a close relationship. But Li Yang is in the hands of the Lu brothers. These two are young and good at fighting, and the son must be courteous to the two. People think it is for their own use. Although there are many mobs under Zhang Yan in Yanshan, the number of people should not be underestimated, and you can make friends with them."

Yuan Tan patiently listened to Guo Tu's words. "Okay, I remember everything. You will defend Qingzhou for me for now, and then go to Liyang to help me."

When they arrived in Liyang, the number of troops had reached 5000. Yuan Tan still felt that it was not enough. While strengthening the city defense, he sent a letter to Jizhou requesting more troops, horses, weapons, armor and food.

Besides Zhou Cang, after some planning, he finally resolved the crisis in Xuzhou. After so many years of tempering, this crisis is no longer a problem for him.However, he was not happy at all. Zhang Jiong came to report that the Hall of Martyrs had been completed, and he planned to pay homage to Dian Wei on July [-]th.

Zhou Cang was very sad to lose a capable general and even a close comrade in arms.There were ready-made pens, inks, papers and inkstones on the table, but he had no way to start. He was thinking about how to write a eulogy for Dian Wei.

Hang Dao immediately, only me, General Hua!This was written by Hua Xiong back then, and it has become a banner in the Xuzhou army. How do Dian Wei write it?After much deliberation, Zhou Cang finally chose to plagiarize. He wrote: Live as a hero, die as a ghost!
Just as he put down the pen in his hand, Zhou Chong hurried over.

"Master, I'm back."
