    "What?" Yan Liang was surprised.

    Yuan Shang, who was a few steps away from him, also had a look of surprise on his face.

    The scout then repeated the information again.

    It turns out that Xu Du¡¯s detailed work claimed that after Zhou Yu led an army of tens of thousands to Qiao County, he went west and captured Ku County, and his troops had already entered Chen County.

    This Chen County also borders Yingchuan County to the east. Due to the narrow territory of this county, if the Wu people marched straight in, they would be able to reach the Xudu city in a few days.

    Hearing the news, Yan Liang frowned, punched his fists, and murmured: "I didn't expect the Wu people to take action, something is not good, something is not good"

    "General Yan, why did the Wu people send troops to the north? What does Sun Quan want to do?"

    Yuan Shang is also very concerned about this matter. After all, he and Yan Liang have become allies, and both sides have to deal with Liu Bei together. Now that Sun Quan suddenly comes to cause trouble, it will have an impact on him.

    "You don't know something, Young Master Yuan. Liu Bei is very cunning. He is afraid that we will join forces to deal with him, so he has already secretly formed an alliance with the Wu people."

    Yan Liang did not hide anything from Yuan Shang, so he generously shared the information about the Wu people with Yuan Shang.

    However, Yan Liang kept silent about Sun Quan's increase in troops at Hukou and his attempt to rebuild Chaisang.

    After hearing this, Yuan Shang couldn't help but frown, and his face became a bit worried.

    The two armies of Yan and Yuan have a huge advantage over Liu Bei in terms of military strength. But now if Sun Quan joins Liu Bei's camp, the gap in military strength will be greatly narrowed. How can Yuan still not know this?  .

    Looking at the anxious Yuan Shang, Yan Liang¡¯s lips quietly revealed a trace of mystery that was difficult to detect.

    The moment.  He then said with a serious face: "Zhou Yu is very capable of using troops. If his army approaches Xudu and threatens to cut off my retreat, then our plan to attack Liu Bei will be completely ruined. Mr. Yuan, it seems that we  The plan must be changed.¡±

    "How to change the law?" Yuan Shang asked hurriedly.

    Yan Liang touched his chin with his hand and frowned deeply, pretending to be in deep thought.

    After weighing for a long time, Yan Liangfang said: "For the current plan, I must speed up the army to move to Chen County to prevent Zhou Yu from threatening Xu Du. Let me deal with the Wu soldiers and horses, Mr. Yuan San.  Then lead the army to attack Liu Bei from the front. After I defeat the Wu army, I will then attack Liu Bei's rear. In this way, Liu Bei will be defeated."

    In a few words, Yan Liang and Yuan Shang changed roles.  He changed his main attack into a side attack, and turned Yuan Shang's side attack into his main attack.

    but.  Yan Liang had good reasons. After all, Zhou Yu's troops could not be ignored.

    Yuan Shang became depressed now, and there was hesitation and reluctance between his brows.

    He originally planned to let Yan Liang be the "big brother" and fight with Liu Bei, while he would collect the profits from the side. Unexpectedly, a group of troops from Soochow suddenly appeared, disrupting his plan in the blink of an eye.

    Seeing Yuan Shang's hesitation, Yan Liang sneered and said, "Why, Master Yuan, are you still afraid of Liu Bei? You don't dare to fight with him."

    Yan Liang used the method of provoking the generals.

    When Yuan Shang heard this, his expression changed and he said confidently: "Liu Bei is just a mat weaver and shoe seller. How can I, the king, be afraid of him?"

    Yuan Shang¡¯s words were proud, but his confidence seemed insufficient.

    Yan Liang sighed and said, "It doesn't matter whether Mr. Yuan San is afraid or not. But looking at you like this, you always don't want to attack Liu Bei. In this case, why don't you lead the army to Chen County to deal with Zhou Yu? I will go  Let¡¯s meet Liu Bei for a while.¡±

    As soon as I heard this.  Yuan Shangli seemed even more reluctant.

    If Yuan Shang wants to deal with Zhou Yu, his army will have to pass through Yan Liang's territory, which means that his food routes and retreat are completely under Yan Liang's control.

    At that time, if Yan Liang betrayed the alliance and suddenly cut off Yuan Shang's retreat, he and his tens of thousands of troops would be trapped and die in the small place of Chen County.

    Yuan Shang is very smart, how could he absolutely trust Yan Liang?

    Seeing that Yuan Shang was still hesitant, Yan Liang couldn't help but get angry and said angrily: "You don't want to deal with Zhou Yu, and you don't want to deal with Liu Bei. Do you still want me to deal with these two powerful enemies alone? What if this is the case?  So, what's the use of you, Young Master Yuan? If this alliance doesn't end, I'll take my leave."

    Angry, Yan Liang turned around and left angrily.

    "General Yan, if you have something to say, please say it nicely and don't get angry" When Yan Liang was about to leave, Yuan Shang became anxious and immediately offered words to persuade him to stay.

    It¡¯s no wonder. Judging from the current situation, if Liu Bei occupies the Central Plains,??The next step will be to attack Hebei from the north. Only after uniting the north will they consider going south to destroy Yan Liang.

    This means that if Yan Liang withdraws his troops, he can still sit back and watch Liu Bei and Yuan Shang fight with each other and profit from the sidelines. But if Yuan Shang withdraws his troops, he can only wait for Liu Bei to attack the Central Plains and turn around to eat him.

    Yuan Shang knew very well that he could not retreat to Hebei and must conquer the Central Plains to thwart Liu Bei's ambitions.

    But without Yan Liang¡¯s help, Yuan Shang would not have the confidence to defeat Liu Bei.

    Yan Liang had caught Yuan Shang's thoughts, so he boldly threatened to dissolve the alliance. Hearing Yuan Shang's eager greeting, Yan Liang secretly sneered.

    He turned his horse around again and said with a livid face: "Young Master Yuan, since you are so insincere, what's the point of this alliance? Let's break up and go back to our respective homes."

    Yan Liang finished speaking and started to leave again.

    Without any further hesitation, Yuan Shang secretly said, "General Yan, the plan I promise you is that you will deal with the Wu people, and Liu Bei will be defeated by me."

    After acting for a long time, Yuan Shang finally fell into the trap.

    Yan Liang smiled secretly, then showed a look of satisfaction on his face, "Young Master Yuan still has some faith. Well, just because of your heroism, I will be my ally."

    Finally, the danger of the alliance's disintegration was saved, and Yuan Shang breathed a sigh of relief.

    While secretly rejoicing, Yuan Shang smiled and said with great pride: "I am honored to be able to form an alliance with such a heroic figure as General Yan, so let's join forces to repay Liu Bei and Sun Quan.  "

    Yan Liang was also generous, and then both parties reined in their horses and returned home.

    With each other on guard, Yuan Shang headed towards Yongqiu City, while Yan Liang walked slowly towards his camp ten miles south of the city.

    As they were getting further and further away, Xu Shu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "My lord, when you turned to leave just now, you acted it very realistically. If it weren't for this, Yuan Shang might not have fallen into the trap so quickly."

    Yan Liang just smiled and said nothing at Xu Shu's compliment.

    Wen Chou on the other side couldn't help but look confused, "Brother, is there any plan for the alliance today?"

    Yan Liang was very emotional and said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, since you came up with the plan, it's up to you to tell Zi Qin."

    Xu Shu smiled and truthfully told Wen Chou the hidden meaning of Yan Liang's scene just now.

    It turns out that before, Yan Liang and a group of advisers expected that Zhou Yu would send his troops north this time just to win some soy sauce. He was obviously to help Liu Bei, but in fact he was just sitting back and watching Yan Liang and Yuan Shang fight Liu Bei so that he could take advantage of the opportunity.

    At the same time, Yan Liang also calculated that Yuan Shang would definitely let him fight with Liu Bei so that he could benefit from it.

    Since these two families were unable to work hard and wanted to get benefits, Xu Shu came up with this plan to make Yuan Shang's wishful thinking come to nothing.

    Now Yan Liang can use the pretext of dealing with Zhou Yu to station troops without advancing, and join hands with Zhou Yu who also intends to work without exerting any effort to make soy sauce.

    And for this reason, Yan Liang was able to flawlessly leave Liu Bei, the hard nut, to Yuan Shang to fight to death.

    When both Yuan and Liu suffered losses, it was the day for him to reap the benefits.

    Xu Shu spoke eloquently and explained his strategy.

    Wen Chou suddenly realized it and couldn't help but admire Yan Liang, "I just heard that my brother promised Yuan Shang that boy to beat Liu Bei, and I was sweating in my heart. I was worried that my brother had fallen into that boy's plan. I was worried for a long time in vain.  , I should have thought that my brother must have expected it. "

    Hearing Wen Chou¡¯s admiration, Yan Liang laughed and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go south with the army and put on a good show with that Mei Zhou Lang.¡±

    Raising the whip and spurring the horses, everyone left briskly.

    ¡­¡­

    A few days later, Yan Liang led his army back from Yongqiu to the south. A few days later, the army arrived at Chen County, the county seat of Chen County.

    At this time, Zhou Yu had led his army from Qiao County and planned to march north to Liang State, making a gesture of supporting Liu Bei.

    Just when Zhou Yu's army had just launched, Zhou Yu suddenly received an urgent report that Yan Liang had led his army to Chen County and was likely to attack Qiao's army.

    According to Zhou Yu's calculations, Yan Liang should join Yuan Shang at this time, and the coalition forces march towards Liang State. What Zhou Yu has to do is to lead his army into Liang State, sit back and watch Liu Bei's Yan and Yuan coalition forces fight to the death, and then take advantage of them.

    But what surprised Zhou Yu was that Yan Liang did not attack Liu Bei, but instead planned to start a war with him.

     The situation was sudden, and Zhou Yu had to change his strategy and urgently led his army to Ku County in the west of Qiao County to meet the attack of Yan Liang's army.

    In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhou Yu stared at the map spread out on the table, thinking about the information about Yan Jun. His mind was flooded with thoughts, and his watery eyes were flashing with strong suspicion.

    A few days have passed in the blink of an eye. Judging from the intelligence constantly sent back by the scouts, although Yan Liang's army has entered Chen County and made a large-scale offensive posture, it has not sent out a single troop for so many days.

    ¡°Even Yan Liang¡¯s game was only active at the border of Chen County and did not cross the border into Qiao County. Such behavior actually seemed like Yan Liang was trying his best to restrain his army from crossing the border.

    "Obviously Liu Bei is the big enemy, but he came to attack me. However, when the army came, he never sent troops to attack. Yan Liang, what kind of trick are you planning"

    Zhou Yu frowned and murmured to himself, revealing suspicion and speculation.

    Zhou Yu thought deeply for a long time. Suddenly, Zhou Yu's body shook slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he had suddenly realized something.

    ???????????? Immediately afterwards, a look of hatred rose at the corner of Zhou Yu¡¯s mouth, and he gritted his teeth and said: ¡°It turns out that he saw through my intention and wanted to imitate me and watch the tiger fight. This common man is really insidious!¡±
