    It was late September, and there were already dewdrops on the dead grass in the wild.  The weather is gloomy, the autumn wind is blowing, the flags are flying, and there is a chilling atmosphere between heaven and earth.  There was a melodious trumpet sound outside Jinyang City, and more than 20,000 soldiers were ready to go, waiting for the governor to leave the city and then go south to Hanoi.  In the Governor's Mansion, Madam Zhao Zhi was still hesitant about whether to leave or stay.  In her heart, she was naturally willing to follow her husband south to Hanoi, so that she could not only see her man day and night, avoid the pain of lovesickness, but also reunite with her brother.  In addition to these reasons, you can also enjoy the pleasure of fish and water as much as possible and complete the great cause of creating people as soon as possible.  However, looking at Lu Lingqi who was unhappy and unable to travel long distances because she was pregnant, Zhao Zhi felt soft and decided to stay with her.  "Husband, I can't leave. I'll stay with Sister Lingqi. Anyway, you won't be lonely in Hanoi with Sister Du and Sister Helan. And Sister Lu stays alone in Jinyang.  How pitiful is she to be alone? She is pregnant now and needs someone to talk to and relieve her boredom. " After hearing Zhao Zhi's words, Lu Lingqi felt grateful. This little girl is really kind in her heart and has no desire to be favored. She will always be there in her heart.  Thinking of others first, with tears glistening in her eyes, she took Mrs. Zhao's hand and said softly: "Good sister, if you want to follow your husband, just follow me. I have a maid by my side, and you can take the horse to the garden."  You won't be lonely when you enjoy the flowers and fish! " "Don't worry, sister. If my sister doesn't leave, I'll just stay with you!" Zhao Zhi held Lu Lingqi's hand and said firmly.  Seeing that his woman was getting along harmoniously, Yuan Maida felt happy. After all, she was Zhao Zilong's sister. Like a brother, like a sister. This noble character is worthy of praise!  "I am deeply gratified to see you sisters getting along so harmoniously." Yuan Mai nodded in approval.  "Let Concubine Zhao stay with you. My husband promises that I will come to Jinyang to accompany you when you give birth!" "Thank you, husband!" After hearing Yuan Mai's promise, the two women high-fived and celebrated.  My beloved has not left yet.  Looking forward to the time of return!  With a melodious trumpet sound, the army set off towards the south, with clouds of dust flying all over the sky.  Lu Lingqi and Zhao Zhi climbed up the tower with her belly full, watching her husband's retreating figure from a distance, her face full of reluctant nostalgia.  I wonder when the world will be at peace, and families can stay together and share family happiness?  The autumn wind rustles.  The army meandered and arrived at Pingtao County two days later.  Zhang Liao, who was stationed here, greeted him personally, holding hands and exchanging pleasantries.  Then a banquet was held in honor of the governor and all the civil and military staff.  During the banquet, Yuan Mai introduced Xu Shu, Guo Huai and others to Zhang Liao one by one, and everyone admired each other.  After drinking a glass of wine, Yuan Mai praised Zhang Liao and said: "Wenyuan was stationed at the southern end of Taiyuan, and he killed the Xiongnu barbarians and abandoned their armor. They no longer dare to covet my land in Bingzhou. I have Wenyuan to help me, so I am lucky to buy it!" "Young Master!  The victory over the Xiongnu was due to the sacrifice of the three armies. "Zhang Liao bowed his hands and said modestly, "If you want to say a great victory, you have to count the achievements of the young master in Dingxiang to defeat the Heishan, which is enough to shine in the history books!  Buy picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "Haha the Black Mountain thieves are just a mob and are not worthy of praise. Most of their troops were lost during the siege. It is not my fault!" "The governor's subordinates and generals, Yue  It¡¯s really gratifying to see more and more people come together, and it¡¯s a great cause!¡± Xu Shu raised his glass in praise, ¡°Come on, everyone, let¡¯s have a drink together!¡± At Xu Shu¡¯s suggestion, all the civil and military officials present raised their glasses and drank together.  A bowl of turbid wine.  "Report, the military information from Hanoi has been sent. Please take a look at it, the governor!" At this moment, a scout from Hanoi sent an urgent document of 600 miles and handed it to Yuan Mai.  Yuan Mai took the letter, opened it and browsed it hastily, and frowned after reading it.  History has not changed much. In Yanjin, Cao Jun took advantage of Guo Jia and Jia Xu's series of strategies to deliberately abandon the baggage, food, grass and money, luring Yuan Jun to rob them, and took the opportunity to defeat Wen Chou, and beheaded two generals, Lu Weihuang and Yang Yu.  More than 25,000 Yuan troops captured Yanjin.  After the First World War, Yuan Junjun was panicked and morale was low.  The only difference from history is that in the Battle of Yanjin, Wen Chou, who was supposed to die from Guan Yu's sword, escaped death, but was shot in the shoulder by Xu Huang. Under the protection of brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang,  Breaking through the siege and returned to Liyang.  Another defeat, and this defeat was as disastrous as the Battle of White Horse. Yuan Shao's arrogant nerves were tortured.  Deciding to attack in person, he ordered Wen Chou to reorganize his old troops, and then divided the left and right wings with Yuan Shang. He personally led the troops in the middle, totaling 70,000, and marched towards Guandu, vowing to fight Cao Cao to the death.?.  "Hiss the battle of Guandu, which will determine the trend of the north, is coming soon. It seems that I have to hurry up and return to Hanoi to help this cheap man in the battle of Guandu. The battle of Guandu can be lost, but it must not be lost.  So miserable!" After reading the letter, Yuan Mai took a breath and drank the wine glass in front of him.  After the civil and military officials asked about the situation, there was a lot of discussion. Some people said that Cao Cao was too powerful and used his troops to the gods. Some people said that Cao Cao had a shameful smile and a good look, while his literary work was ugly. He was known as the "Four Pavilion Pillars" of Hebei. It was hard to live up to his reputation!  After listening to everyone's discussion, Zhang Liaosurong said: "Don't underestimate Cao Jun. When I was serving under Marquis Wen, I fought with Cao Jun many times. Cao Mengde is good at using troops and has many strategies. His troops are disciplined and his generals are brave.  He is a resourceful man, and his ability to defeat various princes over the years is enough to show that his strength is extraordinary! " "Yes, Wen Yuan is right, you must not underestimate Cao Cao, his strength is by no means comparable to that of ordinary princes!  Yes!" Yuan Mai stroked the beard on his chin and agreed with Zhang Liao's words.  Zhang Liao picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it all in one gulp, and said angrily: "What Liao didn't expect was that when Yuan Gong personally conquered the Central Plains, he also suffered consecutive defeats, which made Cao Cao more and more prestigious! Thinking about the past, Liao was defeated by Cao Mengde many times.  My subordinates are really unwilling to accept it, so they ask the governor to allow Zhang Liao to go to the southern front and fight to the death with Cao Jun. Hearing Zhang Liao's invitation to fight, Yuan Mai closed his eyes slightly and fell into thought.  "If it were a decisive battle between myself and Cao Cao now, I would definitely send out all the best, and I would definitely send out the strongest lineup of Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Qu Yi, and Xu Sheng to fight. However, it is not me who is facing off against Cao Cao now, but Yuan Shao!"  Although it is true that Yuan Shao is his father, in his heart, the future successor must be Yuan Shang.  No matter how outstanding your performance is, giving face to Yuan's parents will only increase your weight in Yuan Shao's heart. If you want to replace Yuan Shang's position, it is just a dream!  To put it bluntly, his current situation is that of semi-independence. Although he is under the jurisdiction of Yuan Shao, the team in his hands was created by himself, and the civil and military staff were all recruited by himself. They are absolutely loyal to him; even though he calls himself  As the governor, he is essentially their lord!  The troops and horses controlled by Yuan Shao basically support Yuan Shang. Not to mention nine out of ten, but at least seventy percent are direct descendants of Yuan Shang. On the surface, it is Yuan Shao who is confronting Cao Cao, but in essence they support Yuan Shang.  The duel between Wenwu and Cao Cao.  If he wins, Yuan Shang's power will be stronger and he will become more arrogant; if he loses, Yuan Shang's strength will be damaged, and the advantages to Yuan Buy outweigh the disadvantages.  Yuan Maicai will not foolishly sacrifice his troops to conquer the world for Yuan Shang. Anyway, even if Yuan Shao wins the world, he will eventually pass the foundation to his brother who is "gold and jade, but the outside is defeated." Sooner or later, his duel with Yuan Shang will happen.  It's inevitable.  Unless it is absolutely necessary, Yuan Mai will never face off against Cao Cao.  Cao Cao's strength is too strong. Even if he can win, it will be a tragic victory. The final outcome is probably to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred to himself Therefore, the best strategy for Yuan Mai is not to confront Cao Cao head-on.  He also wanted to make side attacks, contain Cao Cao from the flanks, make both sides lose in the fight, and then profit from it.  Taking advantage of both parties' strength to strengthen themselves while the strength of both parties is damaged is the most brilliant strategy!  What's more, the Southern Huns were entrenched in Xihe County, southwest of Bingzhou, and they still had more than 30,000 cavalry. They were only more than 300 miles away from Jinyang, the political center of Bingzhou. Zhang Liao was still needed to intimidate the barbarians so that they did not dare to act rashly.  "If Zhang Liao is transferred away, these people in front of him are not enough to take charge of the army on his own. Guo Huai is now sixteen years old, in his weakest years. He can be a deputy staff officer, but if he is really allowed to take charge of the army, his experience and qualifications are not enough.  Wang Shuang has been with him for two years, and now he has become a partial general. His qualifications are a little bit low when he is on his own. The bigger problem is that although Wang Shuang is excellent in martial arts, he is really lacking in strategy. To deal with the Huns' cavalry, bravery alone is obviously not enough!  As for the others, Xu Shu was a civil servant. Although he was somewhat proficient in swordsmanship, he was only stronger than ordinary soldiers; not to mention Zhou Cang.  Zhang Xun was once one of the few generals under Yuan Shu, and his qualifications were sufficient, but his skills were very weak. He could be a partial general and just support the formation, but leaving the army to his command was tantamount to a waste of human life!  ,,,,,,,, "Don't be anxious, Wenyuan. Our army will fight Cao Cao sooner or later. Even if you don't take the initiative to join us, I will send you to the front line!" Yuan Mai looked at Zhang Liao with a burning gaze, "But now  , the Xiongnu in Xihe are not destroyed, the safety of the entire Bingzhou County depends on you, as a general, you must not act rashly!" Zhang Liao also understands the responsibility on his shoulders!Appointed, he nodded and said: "Liao understands! I will obey the instructions of the governor!" After the banquet dispersed, Yuan Mai said goodbye to Zhang Liao with various civil and military forces, and led the 15,000 people when he came plus the descendants of the Black Mountain Army.  The mixed team traveled through the starry night and hurried back to Hanoi.  The smoke of gunfire in Guandu is getting closer and closer, and there is no room for Yuan Mai to be careless. If he is careless and loses the whole game, it will be too late to regret it!
