    In the Pingyuan Prefecture, Yuan Xi sat on the throne, Tian Feng led Yuan's old troops to fight on the left, and Liu Bei led his generals to the right.  "Uncle, I wonder if you have any questions about this general's proposal?" Yuan Xi smiled slightly and glanced at Liu Bei.  Yuan Xi just made a suggestion. He doesn't have many generals under his command. He wants to recruit Liu Bei's generals and asks Liu Bei to part with them. Yuan Xi will fully support Liu Bei's southern expedition.  "The general is so polite. Bei is so poor that he has come to join the general. Originally, Bei is the general's subordinate, and Bei's subordinates are the general's subordinates. How can there be any talk of cutting off love? The transfer of generals is all based on the words of the general!" Liu Bei!  After listening to Yuan Xi's suggestion, he was not surprised. Yuan Xi would definitely be on guard against him, otherwise he wouldn't be Yuan Xi.  "Well, okay, I will leave the plains to the emperor's uncle. The emperor will send troops from the plains to attack Qingzhou, and I, the general, will send troops from Yecheng to attack Hanoi. They will advance in two directions, so that Cao Cao can see the majesty of the Hebei army." Yuan Xi raised his wine glass.  He got up and drank it all in one gulp. Liu Bei also finished the drink in front of Yuan Xi.  After a banquet, Yuan Xi took Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Chen Dao out of the plain and returned to Yecheng.  Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang were left to Liu Bei.  "My lord, you have already left." After sending Yuan Xi away, Pang Tong returned to Liu Bei's study.  "Hey, Shi Yuan, Kong Ming, what should we do now that all our brave generals have been borrowed by Yuan Xi to attack Qingzhou?" Liu Bei is a battle-hardened general who knows that both counselors and brave generals are indispensable in war.  For a powerful military commander, no matter how powerful the counselor's strategy is, the effectiveness of the strategy will be affected.  "Don't worry, my lord, Liang and Shi Yuan have already observed the terrain near Qingzhou. This time we send troops to defend, and the general who leads the troops is not important." Zhuge Liang bowed his hand and reported back to Liu Bei. He had already expected Yuan Xi.  Coming back to this move, Zhuge Liang came up with a strategy of defending instead of attacking.  "Hold? Military advisor, we are sending troops to attack the rebels. How did it become a hold?" Liu Bei was stunned for a moment. Could it be that going south to crusade against Cao Cao became a strategy based on holding on.  "My lord, Qingzhou is a plain land. Our army and Cao's army are closely separated by the Yellow River. If it is the dry season, it is not difficult to build a pontoon bridge to cross the Yellow River with Cao's military strength. Our army will be defeated if we attack. So Liang  I thought I could send troops first to lure Cao's army north, and then wait for the opportunity to destroy Cao's army." Zhuge Liang bowed his hand and told Liu Bei his plan.  Zhuge Liang's analysis is very reasonable. Cao's army is higher than Yuan Xi and Liu Bei in Hebei in terms of numbers and general quality.  It was not a wise decision for Liu Bei to raise troops to attack Cao Cao. He could only send troops to attack Cao Cao in the name of a crusade. After Cao Cao sent troops, he would lead the Cao family northward and then seek opportunities to fight. It was better to meet Cao Cao's army in Hebei than in Qingzhou.  "What the military advisor said is true, but if our army retreats without a fight under the pretext of helping the Han Dynasty and leads Cao's army northward, I am afraid that it will be impossible to explain to the people of the world." After listening to Zhuge Liang's analysis, Liu Bei felt that it made sense.  But if he did this, his reputation would definitely be damaged. An imperial uncle who took it as his own duty to help the Han Dynasty actually introduced enemies into his rule.  "My lord, the situation is like this. Only by doing this can Liang have the possibility of defeating Cao Jun. My lord, please don't sacrifice the lives of your soldiers too much for the sake of some benevolent voices. My lord, please think twice!" Zhuge Liang bowed his hand and advised Liu Bei, Liu Bei is too  Excessive benevolence and righteousness are Liu Bei's strengths and weaknesses.  "My general understands, Kong Ming Shiyuan, this time it depends on the two of you. Although my general's generals have been transferred away. However, my general has been conquering everywhere since the Yellow Turban Rebellion. This time, my general will return to the battlefield.  , I believe that my general's ability to command troops is by no means inferior to his second and third brothers." Liu Bei pulled out his long sword and split a long lamp next to him in half.  "My lord is wise!" "Yes. You all should retreat." Liu Bei waved his hand and asked the two of them to retreat.  "Shi Yuan, what happened to you today? Didn't you and I discuss the military plan all night last night? Why don't you say a word today?" After exiting Liu Bei's study, Zhuge Liang glanced at Pang Tongyi. Pang Tongyi said nothing today.  Like a mute, this is a bit abnormal.  "I drank a lot last night. Anyway, Kong Ming reports to the lord on weekdays, so Tong won't have much to do." Pang Tong laughed, took out his gourd, shook it in front of Kong Ming, and took another sip.  "Shi Yuan, you and I are now our lord's important ministers, why are you still so greedy for drinking? Remember, being greedy will ruin things!" Zhuge Liang shook his head, Pang Tong was good at everything but could not change this problem. He liked drinking, which was the same as Cao Cao's army.  Same as Guo Jia.  "Don't worry, Kong Ming. Guo Fengxiao also likes to drink. He has done nothing to harm Cao Cao. Pang Shiyuan is also such a person!" Pang Tong smiled slightly and took another sip of wine.  "Hey, I really can't do anything to you, I'll go back?Look at your family, you should go home early to rest and stop drinking so much.  " Zhuge Liang shook his head and said goodbye to Pang Tong. "No more, Kong Ming!  Pang Tong smiled, his face suddenly changed, and he took out a bamboo slip from his arms. This bamboo slip was a letter sent by one of Pang Tong's friends. The letter told Pang Tong that one of Pang Tong's childhood friends had passed away.  Just like Pang Tong's prediction, he died young! After receiving this letter, Pang Tong was stunned. Another accurate prediction. According to the records in the strange book, he made a small calculation that this person would not live to be thirty.  Five years old. Sure enough, he died at a birthday party at the age of thirty-five, and he drowned while swimming in the river with his friends. This young boy was famous for his aquatic nature in Jingzhou. Could it be that he was also young?  Die young? Thinking of this, Pang Tong held the bamboo slip in his hand and stared at the words on the bamboo slip. At General Xu Du's house, Lu Rui welcomed a young guest. "Steward Zhong, this is me."  ?  "Zhong Yao's housekeeper came from Chang'an and brought a six or seven-year-old child. "Reporting to the Marquis, this man is the son of the former Tianshui prefect Jiang Juan. The Tianshui city was destroyed, but this son was the only one who was rescued by his guards.  When he was sent to Chang'an, Grand Administrator Zhong Yao thought that he was loyal and righteous, and his father had a last word that this son was the adopted son of the Marquis, so he gave the son to the Marquis.  "Zhong Guanjia answered Lu Rui respectfully. "Jiang Wei?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment. Is this the Jiang Wei he saw in Xiliang earlier? Lu Rui looked carefully and found that it was indeed Jiang Wei.  His son Jiang Wei will be Jiang Boyue in the future! ¡°This son¡¯s family?  " "Reporting to Lord Marquis, all of this son's family members have died, leaving only this bloodline.  "    "oh.  " "My child has met his adoptive father!  "Jiang Wei suddenly kowtowed to Lu Rui. "Weier doesn't have to be polite, since Wei'er is homeless.  You can stay in the General's Mansion from now on, and your father will take good care of Wei'er.  Lu Rui looked at Jiang Wei with many emotions. He originally thought that by making Jiang Juan the governor and driving away Ma Chao, he would be able to escape the tragedy of history. However, he did not expect that Jiang Juan died in the Qiang rebellion. "Thank you, adoptive father!"  "Jiang Wei bowed to Lu Rui and stayed in Lu Rui's house. After Lu Rui arranged Jiang Wei's residence, he told Diao Chan to take good care of Jiang Wei. He returned to the study. Since Cao Cao ate a big  After Baozi, Cao Cao said he was ill and could not go to court. One morning, the ministers went to court as usual, but Cao Cao did not show up. Just when he was about to leave the court, Sima Fang suddenly came to the court to express his views on Wei.  King Cao Cao was worthy of heaven and earth, so he should ascend the throne and ask Liu Xie to abdicate. Sima Fang's confession shocked the officials. The Sima family who had always supported Liu Xie actually thought that Cao Cao would compromise, and this was after Zhen declared his support for Cao Cao's proclaimed emperor.  . Sima Fang's remarks caused an uproar among the courtiers. Some courtiers from poor families who supported Liu Xie were of course unkind and unjust and betrayed the kindness of the Han Dynasty. However, some courtiers from aristocratic families who supported Liu Xie were ambiguous.  They all turned to Cao Cao, why are they making noises? Suddenly, everyone in the court turned to Cao Cao, Liu Xie sat on the dragon throne without saying a word, and finally Cao Cao was about to take this step. After listening to Sima Fang's words,  Without saying a word, his eyes kept scanning the court. Cao Cao hadn't appeared yet. Only Cao Cao's attitude was the most important. When the court was in chaos, Cao Cao came to the court and angrily scolded Sima Fang, saying that he was.  The loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty will never let down the Han Dynasty. At the same time, Cao Cao asked Liu Xie to lead troops to Xiliang to quell the rebellion. Cao Cao's appearance finally stabilized the political situation. Later, Liu Xie agreed to Cao Cao's suggestion and asked Cao Cao to send troops to Xiliang to quell the rebellion.  ¡°Everyone in the world has fallen into Father Zhong¡¯s scheme.  "Lu Rui looked at the petitions from various places and smiled slightly. Cao Cao's delaying strategy finally succeeded. Now on Lu Rui's desk are the petitions from various places for Cao Cao to proclaim himself emperor. Everyone in the world thought that Cao Cao was modestly declining and letting Cao Cao proclaim himself emperor.  The ministers made petitions again and again. In fact, Cao Cao just wanted to stay away from Xudu and postpone the proclaiming of emperor until a time that was favorable to the Cao family. "Master Hou, the King of Wei has sent a petition from Chang'an.  The Deputy Prime Minister guards Xudu, and the Marquis takes charge of the military affairs of Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Sili, and Yuzhou as a general of chariots and cavalry.  Let General Cao Ren and General Cao Chong send troops to resist Yuan Xi and Liu Bei in Hebei.  "As soon as Lu Rui put down a written statement, Xu Shu hurried in and reported to Lu Rui. "Oh?  Present it.  "Lu Rui took the form and took a look at it. Cao Cao issued a very interesting military order. Cao Ren and Cao Chong each led an army of 100,000 to resist Yuan Xi and Liu Bei. At the same time, Lu Rui was asked to take charge of the military affairs of the four states and be responsible for the two armies.  Even if Lu Rui was responsible for supervision, Cao Cao also asked Xiahou Dun to serve as Cao Chong's rear army and take charge of the rear mission. He asked General Chachi and General Zhengdong to serve as Cao Chong's deputy general Zhendong. It seems that Cao Cao's promotion intention has been reconciled.  Obviously, as long as Cao Chong standsWith military merit, he must be the Crown Prince of Wei.  "Master Marquis, here is another appointment from the Sima family. The King of Wei has decided to appoint Sima Yi as the governor of Hanoi to guard one side." Xu Shu handed another form to Lu Rui.  "You don't have to look at it. The King of Wei compromised with the family, and the Sima family will naturally benefit." Lu Rui waved his hand. He originally wanted to restrict Sima Yi from staying in the court, but he didn't expect that in the end he would let Sima Yi go out to guard one side.  "Yuan Zhi, that's it for today. You go and get ready. The son's first birthday is coming soon, so we need to celebrate it." Everything has happened, and Lu Rui can't stop it. It's better to organize the son's first birthday party first.  Well, in the blink of an eye, my son Wanger is already one year old.  PS: Thank you for your great support!  !  !  !
