It was raining hazy at this time, holding an oil-paper umbrella, looking at the lush and vibrant scenery around me. Although this was not the misty Jiangnan, it was a bit more peaceful and leisurely than Jiangnan at this time. Occasionally, I met a few people in the fields.
The hard-working farmer also had a smile on his face. Although he couldn't be said to be shiny, he didn't have any talent at all. He obviously had a wealthy family.
Gently hugging little Zhenqing's delicate body, the two of them nestled under the same oil-paper umbrella, their expressions full of relaxation and comfort.
The man was tall, and although he could not be called handsome, his face had become full of majesty due to experience, and his excellent physique, which had been constantly tempered, made him full of masculine spirit.
The woman nestling next to the man has affectionate eyebrows and a spring look on her face. The alluring posture of a young girl and an affectionate young woman makes the woman who already has a flowery beauty and a proud figure even more charming. In addition,
Appropriately, the queen-like pride melted by a man's mind makes a woman's temperament more attractive.
Time is like the best artist, carefully polishing two rough jade stones into dazzling gems.
"Although the same scenery appears every year, I never feel bored every year."
"Because hope is sown into the land, and these green scenery not only represent life, but also represent the hope of thriving. Am I right, Li Lang~"
"That's right, my little Qing'er is so smart."
"Then what reward does my husband have~"
"Well, let me think about it. Then I will reward my little Qing'er to play wrestling with your husband tonight."
Looking at those eyes that seemed to be dripping with water, Li Shushi's hand holding the girl's slender waist couldn't help but move upwards. Such a mischievous move naturally made the beauty in his arms jealous. It didn't have any offensive power, but it made people angry.
I had the illusion that my bones were about to fall apart, and then I thought of the various amorous feelings of this clinging little goblin at night, and suddenly an evil fire rushed straight into my brain.
After being trained by Su Xiaololi, Li Shushi's self-control was greatly tempered. It was just a matter of teasing the girl in his arms. As expected, it would be more appropriate to go back and do further things. Even a picnic or something would have a different flavor, but like this in front of everyone watching
The level of the shameful play was indeed a little too high.
After another lingering moment, Xiao Zhenqing seemed to have remembered something. She suddenly broke away from Li Shushi's arms. Seeing that the other person was blushing but trying to pretend to be serious, Li Shushi couldn't be too uncooperative.
It’s also a lot more upright.
"Recently, my eldest sister and I received letters from several sisters in Jizhou."
"Are you from Jizhou..."
Li Shushi smacked his lips and didn't say anything more. Xiao Zhenqing just looked at Li Shushi with a charming smile. She also didn't say anything more. For two people who have been together for a long time, although they can't do what Li Shushi and Su Xiaololi did.
There is a spiritual connection (in various senses), but there is still no problem with this tacit understanding.
However, after Li Shushi returned to his residence, he still asked Jia Xu to send a copy of the intelligence from Hebei and the Central Plains.
From the latest information coming one after another, Li Shushi can clearly feel that from Hebei to the Central Plains, and even Jiangdong in the south. The changes in the situation in various places are really dizzying, but they are also related to each other. It is fascinating.
Reverie.
Yuan Shao died after all.
Although Li Shushi's arrow failed to kill him on the spot, Yuan Shao, who was held hostage by Gongsun Zan at that time, had no ability to avoid Li Shushi's soul-blessing arrow. With Gongsun Zan's efforts, the feathered arrow
Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, two old enemies who had been fighting to death for a long time, shot each other. The area where Yuan Shao was shot was probably in the heart area. Although Gongsun Zan avoided the heart, he was still severely injured.
However, the outcome was that Yuan Shao was seriously injured and Gongsun Zan died tragically.
After all, although there was some confusion around Yuan Shao at the time due to Gongsun Zan's surprise attack, which gave Li Shushi an opportunity to take advantage of, they immediately reacted after Yuan Shao's heavy arrow and protected the seriously injured Yuan Shao from the battlefield.
As for Gongsun Zan, the feather arrow tightly connected him to Yuan Shao's body. No matter what he did, the feather arrow that penetrated deeply into Yuan Shao and his body would move back and forth, affecting any of his actions, as if being "
Like a girl locked in a "two-headed dragon". In this immobile state, Yuan Shao's bodyguards would naturally be unable to escape death if they reacted.
In fact, none of Gongsun Zan's corpses could be retrieved, and they were all used by Yuan Shao's sons as the best to commemorate his father - although for the entire situation, it was no longer clear whether Gongsun Zan was dead or alive at this time.
produce any impact.
People are more concerned about Yuan Shao's physical condition and the fight for the inheritance rights of the Yuan family after Yuan Shao's death.
Originally, since Yuan Shao did not die under Li Shushi's arrow, he would be able to basically recover as long as he was given half a year. After all, with the Yuan family's background, it should not be a problem to get the magical fairy peach. I would like to think that a person who was divided back then
divided again
The Xiantao can save several fledgling warriors from near death, so if it is replaced by a complete peach, even if Yuan Shao's physique is definitely not as good as those of those young warriors, there should be no problem.
of.
Of course, Yuan Shao is not young, and his vitality has been damaged again this time. It is not easy to get his body back to its old state. However, as long as Yuan Shao does not die, there will be no problems for the Yuan family. Then facing the prying eyes of Cao Cao and the Bingzhou Army,
Yuan Shao still has the strength to fight.
But, but but, but but...
Yuan Shao is dead.
His death was unclear.
His death was extremely strange.
In fact, the news originally came from Jizhou that Yuan Shao had recovered more than half after being nursed back to health by Xiantao, but he was still unable to devote himself to work due to some reasons. At that time, although Yuan Shaojun was a little decadent due to the defeat in the war, he was not lacking in
highlights,
For example, brothers Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi performed well in handling various official affairs for Yuan Shao when he was unable to serve as director. Yuan Tan and Yuan Fang cooperated with each other. Their success on the Eastern Front forced Zang Ba to withdraw from Qingzhou after losing consecutive battles, and even Langxie had to withdraw from Qingzhou.
It also looks precarious.
Just when people were speculating whether Yuan Shao's army would take advantage of the Bingzhou army to concentrate all its efforts to encircle and suppress the enemies in Guanzhong, and Cao Cao's army needed to lick its wounds and clean up its internal problems to regroup. While the situation in the north continued to be in a stalemate, a series of bad news came one after another.
Attack.
First, Yuan Tan was shot in the face by a stray arrow in a pursuit battle that could be said to be certain to win. He fell off his horse and died. The soldiers of Zang Ba's army who were ambushing here originally just wanted to block the enemy's actions, but they didn't.
I thought I got a big fish.
Of course, these soldiers of Zang Ba's army who received the unexpected joy did not rejoice for long before they were cut into pieces by the angry soldiers of Yuan Shao's army.
Because of this incident, Yuan Fang was caught off guard and could only temporarily retreat. In the next two months of fighting, he lost troops and generals, making the originally good situation become tense in vain.
Fortunately, Yuan Fang is not like Yuan Tan. He knows how to deal with the relationship with the people. At the same time, he also knows how to balance the interests of the people, officials, and powerful families. Therefore, Qingzhou changed the decadence of Yuan Tan's political morale.
given everywhere
Yuan Fang had great support. The prefects and county magistrates sent by Yuan Fang to various parts of Qingzhou also performed well. They actively provided soldiers and supplies for Yuan Shao's army. Although Zang Ba seemed to be majestic on the battlefield, he
It is difficult to find a foothold in Qingzhou.
If he is not careful, he will let Yuan Fang plot against some officials and powerful families behind him, cut off food routes or spread rumors, so that even if Zang Ba wants to forcefully continue to expand the results, he will only fall into an isolated and helpless situation.
.
If Yuan Tan's death did not bring about earth-shaking changes to the war situation in Qingzhou, then it was an unprecedented blow to Yuan Shao.
As the eldest son of Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan was once given great expectations by Yuan Shao. He was once regarded as Yuan Shao's natural successor.
Even now, many people can clearly feel that Yuan Shao has shifted more attention from Yuan Tan to his third son Yuan Shang. Whether it is Yuan Fang replacing Yuan Tan as the first commander of the Eastern Front, or whether he is recuperating from his injuries.
Domestic government affairs will be
Full authority is entrusted to Yuan Shang, allowing him to exercise the same power as the prince overseeing the country, and at the same time giving Yuan Shang a lot of necessary guidance behind the scenes. It can be said that Yuan Shao is ready to hand over to Yuan Shang, if his body really cannot support it.
.
But even so, Yuan Shao still had no intention of giving up on Yuan Tan. He turned a blind eye to Yuan Tan's private moves to win over important military and political officials, and continued to condone the eldest son faction headed by Guo Tu and the third son faction headed by Feng Ji.
By attacking and annihilating each other, perhaps Yuan Shao hopes that through this method, he can stimulate the ambition of the replaced Yuan Tan, so that Yuan Tan can show more things.
This may be Yuan Shao's final test for Yuan Tan. Perhaps he thinks he still has enough time to deal with the relationship between the two brothers after being completely disappointed with Yuan Tan. All in all, he has not completely lost hope in Yuan Tan.
.
But it was precisely because of this love that Yuan Shao suffered tremendous pain after hearing the news that Yuan Tan had died in an accident.
However, compared with Yuan Shao's pain, his words after hearing the news are more evocative:
"This may be my fault, because I personally sent my son into the hands of the God of Vengeance. I brought it upon myself."
Of course, compared with the news of Yuan Shao's sudden death three nights later, this sentence seemed insignificant.
Probably, only those who are thoughtful will truly understand the meaning of this sentence, instead of caring about the grievances and grudges between the maid who is said to have poisoned Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao.
Although in Jia Xu's view, this incident seems to have a deeper connection with this sentence.
It's a pity that the maidservant is dead. Even if there is a huge conspiracy hidden behind it, it has become an unsolved case as the clues are interrupted.
People's attention began to focus on the power struggle in Hebei in the post-Yuan Shao era.
With Yuan Tan's accidental death, Yuan Shang, as the biggest beneficiary, naturally became Yuan Shao's only sure heir. His elder brother Yuan Xi would not compete with his younger brother for this position. In fact, Yuan Xi had already
This attitude was clearly stated, and this also made the relationship between him and his two direct brothers very harmonious.
But in the end, the team left behind by Yuan Shao was still divided, and the person who caused all this was a person who had not been taken seriously before but suddenly jumped onto the big stage - the supreme commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front of Yuan Shao's army.
Yuan Fang.
He is also the son of Yuan Shao, but he is just a bastard. Legally speaking, he should not have the possibility of inheriting as long as the legitimate son is not dead. But the reality is that Yuan Shao died suddenly and did not decide who the heir should be.
for whose politics
In his will, he had not named a legitimate son as his heir apparent before. Even if Yuan Shang actually played the role of Prince Supervisor when Yuan Shao was seriously ill, it was only real and nameless after all. All of this gives people who are interested in
Manipulable space.
Under the arrangements of Yuan Shao's three legitimate sons (and his fourth son Yuan Mai, but no one cared about the meaning of his existence for this little guy who had just learned to crawl), Yuan Shao was buried in a beautiful place on the outskirts of Xindu.
place.
Yes, except for Yuan Shao's three legitimate sons and important military and political ministers, the people who participated in this funeral did not even send a representative from the Eastern Front Army, which was an important part of Yuan Shao's army, to participate in this politically charged funeral.
.
The official statement given by Yuan Shang, the successor of Yuan Shao, is that the war is tense and the main generals cannot leave their posts.
This statement seems to make sense. Although Zang Ba was unable to invade Qingzhou due to various reasons, he has always been able to take the initiative on the battlefield. I am afraid no one can predict whether he will break through the obstacles and march straight in at the next moment.
.
But soon a large number of messages appeared in the faith. The content was nothing more than that Yuan Shang, as Yuan Shao's successor, was jealous of talents and was afraid that his talented concubine brother would come back to seize power. After all, Yuan Shang's position was snatched from his eldest son. Naturally, Yuan Shang's position was taken from his eldest son.
Worry that one day your position will become a trophy in the hands of others.
Of course, at the same time, when Yuan Xi was serving as the governor of Youzhou, all kinds of background and dirty information about "persecuting" Yuan Fang were also exposed. Everyone finally noticed the weak and obedient woman.
What happened to the second son of the Yuan family?
The treatment of his brother who is related by blood has given rise to many unique "theory of Yuan Xi's ambition", "the theory of Yuan Xi taking over love with a sword", "the theory of Yuan Xi's secret letter and prophecy to persecute his brothers"...all kinds of different. It is fascinating.
Can't tell the truth from the false.
These messages and black materials were circulated in the market, making Yuan Shao's army, whose cohesion was at a historical low due to Yuan Shao's sudden death, even more uneasy. Especially the soldiers on the Eastern Front, because of Yuan Shao's death
And feeling that their future was uncertain, they now felt as if a guillotine was hanging above their heads, waiting to see when Yuan Shang would attack Yuan Fang.
There were constant rumors that officials and generals stationed in Qingzhou were in contact with Cao Cao's army, which made Yuan Shang extremely uneasy and highly alert.
So under this situation, Yuan Shang had to urgently recruit Yuan Fang and several of his cronies to go to Xindu to report on their work.
Unfortunately, what was waiting for him was an official letter that Yuan Fang refused on the grounds that "the war situation on the front line was tight".
Of course, at the same time, new stories began to circulate in Xindu. For example, Yuan Shang had ambushed five hundred swordsmen in the government office, just waiting for Yuan Fang to come back, just like the general He Jin who Yuan Shao once served, who was chopped into pieces with random swords.
die,
Naturally, all his followers were wiped out, and there were even rumors that Yuan Shang had actually secretly dispatched tens of thousands of elite troops to cross the Yellow River quietly, preparing to carry out a large-scale purge operation across Qingzhou after Yuan Fang left.
Of course, the above is all news from a month ago.
It has to be said that due to the huge amount of information recently, no matter how diligently the intelligence agencies try not to be lazy, they want to select useful ones from the massive amounts of various types of pornographic information, or summarize some useful things based on the intelligence for the benefit of counselors.
It is also quite difficult to analyze and take targeted measures with the staff, so unless there is a major incident, it is understandable that there will be a delay in intelligence.
Although Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Fazheng and others probably still feel a little dissatisfied with this situation.
After all, it was precisely because of this delay that the Bingzhou Army failed to notice Yuan Fang's next method. No, Yuan Fang's next method should have exceeded everyone's expectations.
On a night when the wind was not strong and the night was not too dark, Yuan Fang led his elite troops to raid Zang Ba's camp at the border of Qingxu. It is unknown what means Yuan Fang used to prevent Zang Ba's troops from advancing in advance.
The traces of this force were discovered - perhaps because the successive victories made them relax their vigilance, and they were eventually caught off guard and unable to organize effective resistance at all.
Except for Zang Ba who returned to Kaiyang County in the south of Langye County (now north of Linyi, Shandong Province) for some reasons and did not escape a disaster in the army, the other generals of Zang Ba's line such as Sun Guan, Wu Dun, and Chang Xi
They all became the swords of Yuan Fang's subordinates.
There were only two main generals, Sun Kang and Yin Li, under the dead souls. Because they were stationed far away from areas attacked by the enemy, especially Sun Kang, who had his brother Sun Guan to help withstand the fierce enemy attack, so he had the opportunity to lead the army.
The remaining troops retreated calmly.
The stalemate lasted for several months, and it was still a passive defense in an unfavorable situation, but it only took one battle to successfully reverse the offensive and defensive momentum. Yuan Fang almost replicated the scene of the Battle of Guandu that day, except that Yuan Cao's
The position between them is completely reversed, which is really embarrassing.
Without Zang Ba, the obstacle guarding the entrance to Xuzhou, the door to Xuzhou can be said to be completely open, and Xuzhou's vast and fertile land is almost all Yuan Fang's.
It was also at this time that Sun Quan, who had originally accepted the emperor's reward and seemed to have reached a tacit understanding with Cao Cao, also blatantly tore up the previous agreement between the two parties and once again sent troops to the north, aiming directly at Guangling, an important town in the south of Xuzhou.
In the history of another dimension, because of the "unparalleled national scholar" Chen Deng, Guangling was still as stable as a mountain even though it faced successive attacks from the "little overlord" Sun Ce, causing Sun Ce's plans to go north to fail repeatedly.
However, in this time and space, Chen Deng had been "snatched" to Bingzhou by Li Shushi. After that, even most of the Chen family moved under the wings of this emerging force. After reaching a tacit understanding with Sun Quan, Cao Cao even guarded the south.
Most of the elite troops were transferred to
To support the Guandu front line in the north, they only rely on some county soldiers and powerful troops to resist the tiger and wolf divisions from Jiangdong. In the north, there are the menacing Youji Tigers. Even if Xuzhou has not completely fallen, everyone has already regarded Xuzhou as the two
A hunting ground for the troops.
The only question below is how these two armies will deal with the boundaries between them, but there is no problem with Cao Cao's army.
