Xu Du.
A family banquet is taking place in the house.
All kinds of intelligence have indicated that Yuan Shao will soon send troops, and an unprecedented, protracted decisive battle will come soon.
The potters could not be sure how long the war would last, nor could they be sure when they would be able to teach Xu Du.
Therefore, he should take advantage of this precious time before the war to spend as much time as possible with a few ladies and enjoy the fun of enjoying the family.
"Mulan, Mei'er, Zhen'er, Lingji, it's rare that we can have a meal together, today you must drink well, come, drink this cup first."
The potter smiled and raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Gan Mei, Mi Zhen and Lu Lingji were all smiling and smiling, and their actions were excellent, and they each raised their glasses and drank them all.
Only his wife, Mulan, just touched the corner of the cup with her lips, and put down the spill after a while.
You must know that Mulan is massive, and she usually drinks with her, but no matter how much he drinks it, Mulan still can't sit down, and finally helps him back to the room.
It's rare for the atmosphere to be so good today, but Mulan only takes a sip, which can't help but make the potter a little strange.
The potter smiled and asked, "Mulan, your alcohol consumption is stronger than that of your husband, why did you only drink such a small sip today?"
"I'm a little uncomfortable now, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany my husband to have fun."
Mulan smiled reluctantly, but her face quietly flushed slightly.
Feeling unwell Looking at Mulan's face, there is nothing unusual, on the contrary, it is more ruddy than before, not like she is sick.
The potter couldn't rest assured, and said busily: "I don't know where Mulan is uncomfortable, why don't you call Bian Que to take a look." ” "It's not a big deal, I know."
Mulan refused with a smile.
"Then how can it be done, Madame's body, no matter how small it is, it is a big thing, and it must be taken seriously."
But the potter did not give up, and he was about to order Bian Que to come.
Hua Mulan had no choice but to stop the potter, "Husband, you don't have to call, I already called Doctor Bian the day before yesterday to take a look." ” "Bian Que has already come," the potter became more and more suspicious, "then how did he diagnose it, and where did Madame feel unwell?"
Hua Mulan smiled and said nothing, and her beautiful face showed a little shame, as if her illness was difficult to speak.
The more she refused to speak out, the more uneasy the potter became.
Gan Mei next to her couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but sigh and said with a smile: "Husband, you really don't care about your sister, haven't you noticed that your sister's body has been a little different from usual recently." ” The potter was stunned, more and more confused, and after a few careful looks, he didn't see any difference in Mulan.
It's just that the lower abdomen is slightly bulging, as if it is blessed "Could it be that" The pottery merchant was shocked, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Mulan fiercely.
Her wife, who has been following her on expeditions all the year round, fights and kills all day long, how can she be blessed.
"Don't tease your husband anymore, in fact, my sister is pregnant."
Mi Zhen couldn't bear to be anxious anymore, and smiled and broke the reason.
And so it was The potter was shocked again, guessing that this was the case, and an unprecedented surprise burst out on his face in an instant.
"Mulan, really, you really have it" The potter was excited, grabbed Mulan's hand, and asked excitedly.
Now, Mulan couldn't hide it anymore, so she had to nod with a shy smile.
"Mulan, such a happy event, why didn't you say it earlier."
The potter was both excited and complaining.
Hua Mulan originally had the style of a woman, and she was generous in everything, but now that she is pregnant, her temperament has become a little shy, and she is embarrassed to answer in the face of the potter's question.
Gan Mei explained for her: "My sister is actually two months pregnant, I originally advised my sister to tell my husband earlier, but my sister said that my husband has been busy preparing for the decisive battle with Yuan Shao recently, so we are not allowed to say it, for fear of affecting my husband's major affairs, we have to hide it first." ” The potter suddenly realized, knew the truth, and felt that Hua Mulan was so knowledgeable and sensible, and his heart was moved, holding her hand tightly, not knowing what to say.
A family banquet, but got such a good news, the potter was overjoyed, the spirit was great, so he asked to bring a few more jars of good wine, today he must drink him without getting drunk.
Just when the atmosphere was pleasant, Jing Ke hurriedly came with a hint of solemnity in his expression.
"Da Sima, Jizhou is eight hundred miles away, Yuan Shao has finally sent troops."
Jing Ke's tone was solemn, and he handed over a silk letter with both hands.
In the hall, it was quiet in an instant, and the four ladies who were originally talking and laughing, their faces changed, and their eyes all turned to their husbands.
Is this north-south decisive battle finally coming?
The potter's expression was still indifferent, as if he had expected it, he drank the wine in the cup unhurriedly, and then slowly took over the silk information presented by Jing Ke.
The content of the intel is simple: A few days ago, Yuan Shao officially issued a general order, announcing that he would exhaust the 150,000 troops in the four states of Hebei, wave his army south, and unify the Central Plains.
In whose hands is the Central Plains, in the hands of the potters, Yuan Shao waved his army south, and naturally came at him. "150,000 troops, Yuan Shao, you really look up to me, you are using all your family resources."
The potter threw the information on the case and sneered.
The emotions of the four ladies of Mulan could barely be controlled, but when they reached the five words "150,000 troops", their delicate bodies were all shocked, and their frightened expressions could not restrain their beautiful faces.

Even Hua Mulan, who has never been afraid of the sky and the earth, frowned, "Husband, I didn't expect Yuan Laogou to use so many soldiers and horses, 150,000 troops, which is not a small number." ” This figure is indeed somewhat unexpected.
Of course, the pottery merchant remembered that in the history of Yuan Shao's decisive battle, when Yuan Shao attacked Cao Cao, he only brought 100,000 troops at most.
Now Yuan Shao's opponent has become himself, but his strength is nearly 50,000 more than in history, an increase of almost fifty percent.
However, the emergence of pottery merchants changed history, and the time when Yuan Shao unified Hebei was also one or two years earlier than before.
The potter guessed that it may be the time of the past two years that saved many Hebei soldiers and civilians from death, and Yuan Shao was naturally able to piece together more troops than in history.
So what "I think I was oppressed by Liu Bei back then, I didn't have a single soldier in my hands, but I captured the entire Central Plains, and now I have tens of thousands of male soldiers, and there are so many loyal ministers and good generals, the situation is not many times better than back then, what else is there to be afraid of, you don't need to worry, the sky is falling, I will bear it for you."
The potter merchant responded to the worries of Hua Mulan and other ladies with bold and fearless words, so he went straight to the outer hall, and gathered the civil and military ministers in the starry night to discuss the countermeasures.
Jing Ke got the order, and immediately sent his own soldiers to go to the Xudu mansions overnight to summon everyone to come to discuss the matter An hour later, Chen Ping, Zhang Yi, Xiao He, Huo Quzhi, Yingbu, Li Guang, Zhang Xiu, Yang Youji, Fan Xu, Gao Shun and other heroes in Xudu rushed to meet each other in Dasima's Mansion.
In the main hall of the Great Sima Mansion, the candles are blazing, shining like day.
The expressions of the civil and military warriors were solemn, lined up on both sides of the steps, and the word solemn was written on everyone's face.
The news that Yuan Shao was waving his army to the south had already spread, and the Lord Gong Xingxing Ye summoned them to come, naturally in order to prepare for the war.
They know that tonight's emergency military meeting will directly determine the strategy of this life-and-death battle.
The pottery merchant sitting on the top glanced at the bottom of the stairs, and saw that it was almost there, Fang slowly got up, and said in a loud voice: "Yuan Shao has exhausted the army of the country, and the 150,000-foot cavalry army is going south, you must have known this news, the decisive battle between the north and the south can no longer be avoided, and now you are summoned to come, that is, everyone will discuss a strategy to deal with the enemy, and you can speak freely." ” When the potter said the news himself, everyone was shocked, and their spirits immediately became excited.
Then, the potter announced the latest information to the public.
The remaining pieces of information are all about how Yuan Shao used his troops.
This time to the south, Yuan Shao mobilized the four prefectures of Youji and Qingdao, with a total of 150,000 troops to the south.
Of these, there were about 130,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry.
In addition to Yuan Shanghe and Guo Tu who stayed in Yecheng, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw, Ju Yi, Gao Ran generals, Xu You, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Feng Ji and other strategists all accompanied the expedition.
In addition to Yuan Shao's own generals, Liu Bei, who was a guest secretary, and the three generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhang Liao under Liu Bei, also went on the expedition together.
Not to mention Yuan Shao's troops, just his civil and military team is really luxurious and enviable.
Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei four generals, are all armed forces with 10,000 enemies, the world's top generals, looking at the world is also a rare existence, in the Tao Shang army, only Lian Po, Yingbu and Huo Quai, force can compete with it.
The rest are like Zhang Jaw, and the Euphorbia under his command is an elite division, and this person is also extremely capable of commanding troops, and he was even a pillar of the western Wei State in history.
As for Na Juyi, perhaps because the potter changed history and changed his fate by the way, this person did not die.
And this Ju Yi, the first crossbowman under his command, is not inferior to Li Guang's sharpshooter battalion, and he even destroyed Gongsun Zhan's invincible White Horse Yicong back then.
The military generals are so luxurious, and the strategists are even more dazzling.
Tian Feng's judgment is amazing, he is like a god, his wisdom is comparable to Guo Jia's, and that frustration is also the top level in the world.
Tian Feng in history should have offended Yuan Shao and was imprisoned, but he didn't expect his fate to be changed, and he went south with Yuan Shao.
The rest of Xu You, Feng Ji and other strategists are all human spirits, if they are not addicted to infighting, they can pull out any of them, and they can exert immeasurable wisdom and energy.
With such a luxurious lineup, coupled with an army of 150,000 foot cavalry, it is definitely an army that can sweep the world.
According to the intelligence, Yuan Shao's army will be assembled in Yecheng in a few days, and then march south, first to Liyang, an important town on the north bank of the Yellow River, and then cross the river from Baima or Yanjin, and the army will go south and go straight to Xudu.
This route is the shortest route from Yecheng to Xudu.
Although the pottery merchants seized the Son of Heaven, they did not move the capital, and still set the capital in Xu County, Xu Du is not only the imperial capital, but also the ruling center of the pottery merchants.
Yuan Shao raised troops in the name of Qingjun's side and thieves of all countries, so he naturally came straight to Xudu.
As long as he captures Xudu, he will be able to snatch the Son of Heaven and destroy the ruling center of the potters.
Xu Du will be Yuan Shao's ultimate goal. isjgy:
