Turn Suiyang into the main battlefield Chen Ping and Huo Quzhi were stunned again, and their eyes once again confided suspicion.
Huo Quai's wisdom was a few points inferior, but Chen Ping was extremely smart, only slightly stunned, and instantly realized.
"Da Sima's intention is not only to defend Suiyang, but also to defeat the Yuan army, if you want to do this, it is not enough to rely on 5,000 soldiers and horses, so you have to transfer 20,000 elite soldiers to go" Chen Ping said the intention of the pottery merchant.
The potter smiled but said nothing.
Huo Quai's illness only then came to his senses, and his thoughts turned, and a look of sudden realization suddenly appeared on his young and heroic face.
"If we can break the enemy army that captured Suiyang, it will not only severely dampen the morale of Yuan's army, but also make Yuan Shao jealous and dare not divide his troops again.
Chen Ping and Huo Quzhi obviously agreed with the potter's decision.
"It's just that as soon as the 20,000 soldiers and horses leave, if Yuan Shao takes advantage of the situation to attack my camp, the pressure on Guandu is not small."
Chen Ping reminded again.
The potter snorted coldly and said proudly: "Within ten days, I will return victoriously, and if the 20,000 soldiers and horses left behind can't support it for even ten days, it will take me half a year to painstakingly build this Guandu defense line." ” The potters had full trust in the solidity of the Guandu camp and the ability of the soldiers left behind, so they dared to act so boldly.
The decision has been made, of course, there is no hesitation, that night, the pottery merchant led 20,000 elite soldiers to secretly leave the camp and go straight to Suiyang.
In the direction of Guandu, the pottery merchants left Li Guang and Yang Youji as the generals who were good at guarding them, and Chen Ping as the strategists to preside over the overall situation.
Two days later, Suiyang City.
The potter led 20,000 horsemen, starry nights, and finally rushed to his knightly city before the enemy.
The army entered the city with the front foot, and the scouts on the back foot came to report, saying that tens of thousands of Yuan army foot cavalry had been killed, and the forward was only fifteen miles away from Suiyang City.
"Sure enough, fortunately I arrived in time" The potter looked to the north, a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Lingji, who was beside him, asked: "How many enemy troops are there, and who will lead the troops?"
The scout said: "Back to Mrs.
Sima, according to the estimates of the small ones, the enemy army has at least 30,000 people, and the commander of the army should be Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, the deputy general is Liu Bei, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are also in the army. ” Yuan Tan, an old enemy Thinking about the battle of Lang Evil back then, the eldest son of the Yuan family was killed by the potters and was defeated repeatedly, and even was not only captured alive, but also robbed of the Ganmei he liked by the potters.
If it weren't for his weak strength and didn't want to offend Yuan Shao in advance, he would have slaughtered Yuan Tan with a knife.
If someone else is the commander, the potter is still a little jealous, and if Yuan Tan leads the troops, the potter will be relieved.
However, with the three brothers Liu Bei here, it is a little tricky, and the strength of these three people is far better than Yuan Tan.
"Fortunately, Liu Bei is only a deputy general, no matter how strong you are, with Yuan Tan, a pig-like coach, I think you are useless" A disdainful sneer rose at the corner of the potter's mouth, and then he ordered the whole army to seize the time to rest and recuperate, while repairing the city defenses, preparing to teach the invading enemy a hard lesson.
North of Suiyang.
The dust rushed to the sky, and 30,000 Yuan troops rode on foot, killing and rushing south, and the soldiers approached Suiyang City.
Yuan Tan, who was dressed in silver armor, looked proudly into the distance, and his handsome face was filled with joy and pride that he hadn't seen for a long time.
Since Lang Xie was captured and disgraced, he has lost his father's trust too much, and he has not been entrusted with important tasks for too long, and he has been suppressed by his younger brother Yuan Shang everywhere, holding his breath for several years.
Now, it has finally come to his time to raise his eyebrows.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the two generals of the Hebei faction, were defeated one after another, and finally gave him a chance, regained the trust of his father, and was able to lead 30,000 troops to the battle.
With the military power in hand, of course, he has regained the prestige and self-confidence of the eldest son of the Yuan family.
"Tao thief, you humiliated me several times, robbed my woman, and brutally castrated me, so that I lost the power to be a man, made me lose face, and was snubbed by my father for a long time, today I Yuan Tan is finally back, I want to push you to a dead end step by step, take away everything you steal, including your woman, and finally castrate you, so that your life is worse than death, only in this way can I eliminate the hatred in my heart" Yuan Tan's thoughts flipped like a tide, and the anger of revenge burned in his chest.
At this time, he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly to Suiyang City, plant the Yuan character banner at the head of the city, and then go straight to Xudu and stab the potter's buttocks.
In front of his eyes, the potter's panicked, frightened and helpless appearance seemed to have emerged.
Thinking about it, the corners of Yuan Tan's mouth couldn't help but raise a smug sneer.
"The eldest prince led the troops to the south this time, and if he was prepared to help, he would inevitably attack everything, first capture Suiyang, and then take Xudu, this great achievement in pacifying the Central Plains is none other than the eldest prince."
Liu Bei, who was beside him, sensed Yuan Tan's thoughts, so he smiled and complimented.
Just as Yuan Tan was imagining a bright future, a scout galloped over and shouted, "Lord Yu, the reinforcements of the Tao army have rushed to Suiyang City. ” "What" Yuan Tan was taken aback, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
"The enemy's reinforcements have arrived in Suiyang City in advance, at least tens of thousands."
The scout repeated it again.
Yuan Tan looked surprised, and he didn't react for a while.
Liu Bei, who was also shaken, had already reacted first, and said with a frown: "Eldest prince, the pottery thief obviously expected that we would divide our troops to attack Suiyang City, and we have already taken precautions in advance, so it is better to postpone the attack on the city and think about it in the long run." ” Yuan Tan finally understood, but instead of fading, his face burned with annoyance.
He led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, made a big circle from Guandu, and walked hundreds of miles more, so it was easy to kill the north of Suiyang City, how could he easily stop.
The anger of revenge has been held back for so long, and the opportunity to make a name for himself and wash away his shame is right in front of him, how can he let it go.
Yuan Tan was impatient, and he couldn't wait for a moment.
Glaring fiercely at the south, Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "The main force of the pottery thief is in Guandu, even if he wants to save Suiyang, he will not dare to divide too many soldiers and horses, this son has 30,000 elite soldiers under his command, and Xuande you help, I don't believe that I can't take a small Suiyang, pass the order, and the whole army will continue to advance for me." ” After that, Yuan Tan did not hesitate, and left with his horse.

Liu Bei looked at Yuan Tan's distant figure, shook his head and sighed lightly, and wanted to move forward first.
At this time, Guan Yu came up from behind, lowered his voice and said: "Big brother, this eldest son Yuan is too stubborn and self-serving, why should the eldest brother help him, don't help him Yuan Shang" Liu Beihuan glanced around, and saw that there were no ears and eyes on the side, and Fang said meaningfully: "Although this Yuan Tan is not capable, but the people who support him are all Ru Ying and other Central Plains scholars, now that Yuan Shao is pacifying the Central Plains, the power of Ru Yingshi will inevitably skyrocket, why do you say that Brother Wei is helping Yuan Tan speak at this time." ” Guan Yu's bare eyes turned, and he suddenly realized.
The strength of the Ru Yingshi people has skyrocketed, which means that Yuan Tan's strength will also skyrocket, and Liu Bei stood on Yuan Tan's side at this time, naturally in order to better use Yuan Tan in the future.
"Big brother is wise."
Guan Yu arched his hand, his bare face was full of respect, but his gaze shot to the south, "It's just that there are enemy reinforcements in Suiyang City now, do you want to follow him to attack?"
Liu Bei smiled coldly, "Although Yuan Tan is not capable, but one thing he said is right, the main force of the pottery merchant is in Guandu, he will not dare to send too many soldiers and horses to save Suiyang, and if he insists on taking Suiyang, there is no problem, it's just the length of time, since he is so insistent, why should I object." ” Guan Yu suddenly realized, and the respect in his eyes became even stronger.
"Let's go, capture Suiyang City, it's time for our three brothers to take revenge on the potter."
Liu Bei whipped his horse and followed Yuan Tan.
Yuan Tan urged 30,000 riders to rush towards Suiyang City.
The Yuan army approached three miles north of the city, Yuan Tan collected the soldiers and horses, ordered to set up camp, and put on a posture of forcing the city.
The camp was approaching, and Yuan Tan personally led more than ten horsemen and horses, close to the north gate of Suiyang, and personally reconnoitred the situation of the defenders.
It was already dusk, Yuan Tan stationed on Ma Avenue, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and saw the head of Suiyang City, the flags were continuous, and the red battle flags were rolling with the wind, like a wave.
"What's the matter, the banner of Suiyang City covers the sky, it seems that the number of Tao troops entering the city is not small, how dare the Tao thieves send so many reinforcements" Yuan Tan frowned, showing a little surprise.
Liu Bei, who was following beside him, had been looking at the enemy city from afar for a long time, but on his hideous face, he let out a disdainful sneer, "Don't worry, the enemy army is just bluffing." ” "Bluffing" Yuan Tanhu looked at Liu Bei suspiciously.
"Look, eldest son."
Liu Bei took a step forward and pointed in the direction of the city gate, "Those flags on the enemy city are very fresh and new, and at first glance, they have not been used for a long time, but we have been fighting with the pottery thieves for more than a month, how can the pottery thieves still have so many new battle flags, and it must be that there are not many defenders, and they deliberately rushed to make many new battle flags, just bluffing." ” Yuan Tan suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Xuande is reasonable, he can see through the reality of the enemy and thieves at a glance, and with Xuande's help, why should my son worry about it." ” "The eldest prince has won the prize."
The corners of Liu Bei's mouth quietly swept a trace of pride, but he sighed again: "But even if the enemy army is bluffing, I expect that there are at least 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and it is not easy for us to break the city in one fell swoop." ” Yuan Tan sneered disdainfully.
He raised his gun and pointed at the head of the city, and sneered: "Xuande thinks too highly of the enemy thieves, I expect the reinforcements of the pottery thieves to come too hastily, I am afraid of the might of our army, the morale has been frustrated, and the discipline is not in order, how can I stop the onslaught of tens of thousands of my male soldiers." ” "Undisciplined" Liu Bei looked at him with a strange look, "How did the eldest prince see it?"
"It's very simple, Xuande, you look down."
Liu Bei and the eyes of everyone looked at the ground in unison, except for the chaotic footprints, there was nothing else.
Yuan Tan said with a smile: "If the enemy's military discipline is stable, they will definitely enter the city calmly, but now the footprints on the ground are so messy, most of them are the enemy's haste to come, afraid of being crushed by our army, scrambling to seize the road into the city, such an army, what else to worry about." ” Liu Bei carefully examined the footprints on the ground, and sure enough, as Yuan Tan said, he couldn't help but suddenly realize, his eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he didn't seem to dare to believe that it was really not easy for this Yuan Dagongzi to have this eyesight.
He hurriedly exclaimed: "The eldest prince has amazing insight, and he is ready to admire the five bodies, since the enemy army has found out the truth and reality, then we will not take advantage of the situation to attack the city, and wait for when." ” Receiving Liu Bei's admiration, Yuan Tan became more and more proud, raised his head and laughed wildly, and said proudly: "The soldiers came from afar, they are physically exhausted, and they are not in a hurry. ” In the midst of wild laughter, Yuan Tan glanced at the city with disdain, and turned his horse away.
Yuan Tanzhi was full of pride, and went away with the belief that he would win, but he didn't notice that on the top of the city, a pair of eagle eyes were staring at him coldly.
The potter stood at the head of the city, smiling at Yuan Tan and looking away. isjgy:
