Chapter 144 Sitting in Taiyuan

Everyone was walking on the streets of Taiyuan. Yuan Shao saw that the huge Taiyuan City actually showed a desolate atmosphere, and he couldn't help but frown and said, "How deeply is the Huns!"

Zhang Lang said: "Dad, the Huns are almost the same as the frightened birds now, so I think we should take the opportunity to make a quick move, not give the Huns a chance to breathe, and strive to make a decision in the battle in Yangyan Cang. Even if we cannot annihilate them in one fell swoop, we must completely destroy them!"

Yuan Shao nodded and smiled, "My father and several gentlemen also think that we should take the opportunity to make a quick move. Since Maier also thinks the same way, it's not too late. The army rests in Taiyuan for one night and sets out to advance north early tomorrow morning, and a battle will determine the world!"

After the group arrived at the prefect's mansion in the city, Zhang Lang ordered people to deliver the banquet prepared in advance.

Everyone had a banquet in the hall of the prefect's mansion to discuss the current war and the situation in the world.

After that, they will go down to rest.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left the prefect's mansion and went to the residence arranged by Zhang Lang for them. When Yuan Shao came, the prefect's mansion naturally became Yuan Shao's temporary residence, and the others had to move to another place.

Zhang Fei couldn't help but say dissatisfied: "Then Yuan Shao is really hateful and he doesn't take his elder brother seriously at all! Fortunately, the three of us and the others even took action to save the fourth young master!"

Guan Yu stroked the long beard under his jaw and smiled: "Can the third brother save the fourth son or not be due to Yuan Shao's face?"

Zhang Fei glared and shouted, "What is Yuan Shao's thing! In my eyes, the third master of the fourth generation is bullshit! How could I take it for his sake! I only rescued him because the fourth master is a hero! Isn't it that second brother?"

Guan Yu nodded and said, "That's right. Since the third brother thinks so, why should he be so angry?"

Zhang Fei uh, he smashed his mouth in depression and muttered: "I'm just talking!"

Guan Yu smiled and looked at Liu Bei who seemed to be thinking about something. He couldn't help asking: "Brother, I think what Yuan Shao said is just perfunctory. Why should I be discredited by others here for nothing? Why should I leave here!"

Zhang Fei immediately agreed, "Second brother said this well! Why should a man suffer from this bird's breath? If you don't leave me here, you will have a place to stay!"

Liu Bei was also a little nervous about Yuan Shao's attitude and thought, "Even if you want to leave, you need to say goodbye to the fourth young master."

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei nodded, Guan Yu said, "What the eldest brother said is. Although Yuan Shao is heartbreaking, the fourth young master is very courteous to us and is grateful to us. He mentioned the matter of awarding the eldest brother's official title again at the banquet.

He is a kind and righteous person, and we should treat him with courtesy. Otherwise, he would not be the real man's journey."

Zhang Fei said with confusion: "At the banquet just now, Yuan Shao mentioned the assassination of the fourth prince. The fourth prince clearly knew that the matter was from Yuan Xi and his mother Liu, but why didn't he say it? How could such a kind heart can lead to good results?"

Liu Bei smiled and said, "The fourth young master is a famous general on the battlefield, how can he be decisive in killing and fighting? " Then he said seriously: "The reason why he doesn't say it clearly is nothing more than being useless, but it may put himself in trouble, so he simply won't say it."

Zhang Fei was surprised, then understood and nodded heavily, "Yes! I'm afraid that Yuan Shao's kindness can't be fair!"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "It's not because of Yuan Shao, but because this matter is too complicated. Just like the royal prince's dispute, if you are not careful, you will be a place that will never be restored.

Now Liu is favored by Yuan Shao, and he heard that the Liu family is very powerful, so it can be seen that most of the food and grass that the army went to fight this time was raised by him.

Not to mention that the fourth young master has no real evidence, even if there is, Yuan Shao is unlikely to offend the entire Liu family for him, so the impact would be too great.”

Zhang Fei clenched his head and frowned, "I don't understand at all."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "This kind of thing is not something Yide needs to understand."

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Brother is saying that I don't want to think about these messy things."

The three of them walked forward as they spoke, gradually disappearing into the night.

At this moment, in the study of the prefect's palace, Yuan Shao was discussing the next battle with Zhang Lang and others. The Yangyan Cang is a dangerous place with the terrain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is definitely not easy to win this battle.

Dada da...! The sound of rapid footsteps came from the door, and everyone couldn't help but stop discussing and looked at the door. A messenger rushed in quickly and presented a book of flying pigeons to report: "Report to the Prime Minister, Luoyang urgently reported!"

Everyone's hearts moved, Yuan Shao immediately stepped forward to take the letter, opened it and read it, his expression changed slightly: "Cao Cao, Sun Jian is actually evacuating in a hurry!?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Zhang Lang asked, "Why did they suddenly withdraw at this time?" Everyone also showed concern.

Yuan Shao frowned and said, "Not long ago, Liu Biao led his army to attack Jiangdong. The situation in Jiangdong was critical. Yuan Shu actually used the excuse of transporting food and grass to destroy Guo. He seized several county towns in Cao Cao's hands in one fell swoop, and Yanzhou was in danger.

The two had no choice but to retreat quickly to protect the foundation of the rear.

It's really abominable! Yuan Shu did such a despicable thing after he was a famous family! Liu Biao was a royal family member, but he had no intention of serving the country and the people!

He did not participate in the 18 princes attacking Dong Zhuo, but now he is here to get us back! It is a real crime to die!"

Everyone cursed.

Xu You said worriedly: "Sun Jian and Cao Cao withdrew, and Dong Zhuo is likely to send troops eastward to threaten Luoyang. We must withdraw our troops! Otherwise, Luoyang will lose money and the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Feng Ji also said: "It seems that the heavens will not destroy the Huns, so this is why such a thing happened! Now there is no other way except to return to defend Luoyang."

Yuan Shao was very depressed, but he felt that he could only do this now. It was particularly regretful that he was unable to destroy the Huns in one fell swoop.

He glanced at everyone and asked, "If the army retreats, how should we deal with the Huns?"

Xu You said: "Although the Youxian King has not died, he has also suffered heavy damage. I believe he will not cause any harm again! The situation in Bingzhou will not be bad in a short period of time, so there is no need to worry too much."

Zhang Lang said to Yuan Shao: "Dad, let me leave Taiyuan."

Yuan Xi was shocked and shouted without thinking: "How can this work?"

Feng Ji also clasped his fists and said, "My subordinates also think that this matter should be cautious. The fourth young master killed Zhang Yang. If he stayed in Bingzhou, it would probably arouse suspicion from other prefects. He was afraid that each other would be restrained and would not be conducive to guarding against the Huns."

Yuan Shao frowned, looked at Xu You, and asked, "What do you think Ziyuan?"

Xu You hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe we should make a long-term plan for this matter." He did not support Zhang Lang.

Yan Liang couldn't help but shout: "The fourth prince defeated the Xiongnu, and the local people were grateful. Who except the fourth prince is qualified to take over Taiyuan? As for Zhang Yang, it is obvious that Zhang Yang deserves his crime. How can he blame the fourth prince!"

Even though Feng Ji, Xu You and others were eloquent and eloquent, they could not say anything to refute Yan Liang's simplest words for a while.

Yuan Shao nodded in agreement and looked at Zhang Lang and said, "Then the important task of stationing Taiyuan to guard against the Huns will be handed over to Maier! After returning, I will ask the emperor to issue an order to enthrone Maier as the Marquis of Fenyang Ting, and also take charge of Taiyuan's military and political affairs!"
