Chapter 75 Envoy Xu You
Tuo Yi suddenly vomited blood in the hall and fainted, shocking the civil servants and generals present.
Han Fu didn't know why, but Tuo Yi was a powerful general under his command. Han Fu was worried and hurriedly asked someone to treat Tuo Yi. Ju Su, Tian Feng, Xin Ping and others knew the reason, but they watched the wall. After Tuo Yi was taken down by the doctor, the sorrow on Han Fu's face dissipated and he asked someone to prepare for a banquet to celebrate. The singer was so charming and the atmosphere was warm, as if there was no incident in Tuo Yi vomiting blood.
...
Bohai County, Nanpi County.
Government office, study room.
Yuan Shao was wearing a brocade robe and a fur cloak, sitting upright. However, his handsome face was a little hideous, and his eyes were even more thunderous and angry, staring at Wen Chou who was kneeling in front of him without blinking.
Before this, Yuan Shao had already learned of the defeat, and he wanted to slap Wen Chou to death. However, seeing Wen Chou's haggard face, ragged clothes, and sad eyes, Yuan Shao couldn't help but sigh.
It’s not Yan Liang, Wen Chou is incompetent, but Wang Lei is too cunning.
Yuan Shao took a deep breath and said, "Get up!"
Wen Chou then stood up, returned to the seat respectfully, and knelt down.
Yuan Shao asked: "What's going on in your defeat? Explain it carefully."
"Abide by the order!"
Wen Chou dared not hide it. He started from the army occupying Hejian Kingdom and entering Lunu County, Zhongshan Kingdom, and carefully stated the battle with Wang Lei clearly. From Wang Lei's defeat and then to the end of the army being washed away by the surging rivers, the entire process was extremely detailed, and even he and Yan Liang's analysis and judgment of the battlefield were told to Yuan Shao without missing a word.
The further he went, the more sad the expression on Wen Chou's face became.
He choked and said sadly: "Lord, my brother was captured by Wang Lei. I beg you to send troops to attack Wuji County again. Wang Lei is not strong, with less than two thousand soldiers and only two or three generals. He dare not fight us head-on."
"call……"
Yuan Shao sighed: "You are so stupid. You haven't discovered such a simple plan."
Wen Chou widened his eyes, "..."
He thought to himself that if the lord had gone to fight, the same result would probably be. However, this was obviously impossible to say. Wen Chou said respectfully: "Lord, Mo Jiang and his brother have let down the lord's trust, but Wen Chou is unwilling to give him another chance to avenge him and allow Mo Jiang to make meritorious service."
Yuan Shao snorted, without paying attention to Wen Chou's request, and shouted: "Come here!"
A soldier ran in and stood up.
Yuan Shao ordered: "Please Xu You, Feng Ji, Guo Tu come!"
"Abide by the order!"
When the soldier left, Wen Chou was restless in the study. He was thinking about Yan Liang's safety and wanted to rescue Yan Liang back. However, when he proposed to send troops, Yuan Shao did not accept it, which made Wen Chou feel uneasy.
Soon, Xu You took the lead in the study.
Immediately, Feng Ji and Guo Tu also followed him to the study.
The three of them sat down, Yuan Shao said: "Wang Lei is too bullying, and I plan to attack Wang Lei himself."
"Lord, no!"
Xu You opened his mouth to stop him without hesitation.
Wen Chou raised his eyebrows and was displeased. He was very worried about Yan Liang's safety. If Yan Liang did not surrender, wouldn't he be killed by Wang Lei? Wen Chou glared at Xu You. Unfortunately, Xu You looked calm and even glanced at Wen Chou from beginning to end. He never looked at Wen Chou again. Then he said without any haste: "The lord just gained a foothold in Bohai County, with insufficient troops and insufficient food and grass. Moreover, it is cold and cold now, which is not conducive to the march. Even if you want to attack Wang Lei, you have to wait for the beginning of spring to fight against Wang Lei again."
After hearing this, Yuan Shao said angrily: "Wang Lei is too arrogant, and I can't swallow this anger."
Xu You smiled slightly and said, "My lord is a person who does big things. Please keep your mind from sending troops for a while and let Wang Lei temporarily be arrogant for a while. The more he is now, the more painful he will fall when the lord's army is killed next year."
"Well said!"
Yuan Shao nodded in praise.
"Report!"
A loud voice came outside the study.
"Come in!"
Yuan Shao ordered, and a warrior in black walked to Yuan Shao's ear. The warrior in black whispered. Yuan Shao's face changed drastically. He stood up, slapped the table with a slap, and shouted: "It's too much! Wang Lei is too much bullying~~" He waved his hand, and the warrior in black retreated, and Yuan Shao said angrily: "Wang Lei is too much bullying, I must go out to fight."
Guo Tu hurriedly asked, "Lord, what happened?"
Feng Ji said: "Please make it clear and let us know what happened."
Yuan Shao said in a deep voice: "Yan Liang's family disappeared, and there was even more news that Yan Liang surrendered to Wang Lei."
"impossible!"
Wen Chou denied that he knew Yan Liang, who was a strong man and would never surrender. Wen Chou was anxious and quickly explained: "Although Yan Liang was captured, he was loyal to his lord and could never have a second thought. Yan Liang's family suddenly disappeared, and the news that came from the county town must have been deliberately released by Wang Lei."
Yuan Shao frowned, and he also guessed in his heart.
But when Yuan Shao thought of Yan Liang's incident, he couldn't help but guess.
Feng Ji was quick-witted and knew that Wang Lei could not succeed at this time, so he persuaded: "Lord, General Yan has always been loyal and righteous, and it is impossible for him to betray his lord. Bei Zhi agreed with General Wen's statement. This must be Wang Lei's trick. He wanted to use this to anger his lord and break up with Yan Liang. Only then can Wang Lei benefit and conquer Yan Liang. The more Wang Lei did this, the less he could not make him satisfied."
Yuan Shao took a deep breath to calm himself down so that he would not lose his composure due to anger.
However, the anger in my heart is difficult to dissipate.
Xu You's eyes rolled and he smiled and suggested, "Lord, there is a way to make Yan Liang loyal to his lord without being coerced by Wang Lei."
"Speak quickly!" Yuan Shao said hurriedly.
Xu You waved his sleeves, raised his head, and said unhurriedly: "The lord can send an envoy to Wuji County to ask Wang Lei for Yan Liang. In addition, the lord publicly asks Wang Lei for Yan Liang's affairs. In this way, it not only shows the lord's love for talent, but also allows the people of Wuji County to know that the lord has not given up on Yan Liang, and also prevent Yan Liang's family from being deceived."
After thinking carefully, Yuan Shao frowned and said, "It will definitely be difficult to get Yan Liang back from Wang Lei, and it will definitely cost a lot of money. If he didn't have a three-inch tongue, he might not succeed."
Xu You clasped his fists and said unavoidably: "Lord, I am willing to give it a try."
"good!"
Yuan Shao had a smile on his face and said carelessly: "Ziyuan went to Wuji County and be careful. No matter what the final result is, Ziyuan must come back intact. I am waiting for you to return in triumph and then welcome you."
"Please rest assured, lord, and give up your post!"
Xu You left with a calm expression.
In Xu You's eyes, Wang Lei was just a small county magistrate, and a baby county magistrate. To fool such a person is just a matter of being able to make a mistake, a small matter.
