I glanced at Zhang Yun, who was trembling with excitement, and sneered in my heart: Look at the formation that Xu Gong has put in today, he is afraid he will be anxious, so he can't even care about whether to be in friendship or not. Zhang Yun is really confused.

Since he arrived at Huqiu, Lu Xun, who was far inferior to the other three surnames in terms of qualifications and strength, had never spoken. At this time, he suddenly stood up angrily and shouted loudly at Xu Gong on the stage: "Lu Xun is not talented, dare you ask the prefect why he set up heavy troops at the foot of the mountain to block us from passing through?" Lu Xun's shout was shocking.

Xu Gong had actually seen the turbulence here on the stage. Seeing Lu Xun being young and questioned, he couldn't help it. He smiled and said with a slight smile: "I said who is it? It turns out that he is a stinky child from the Lumen. Yes, the soldiers who are holding the road at the foot of the mountain are indeed my confidant. Xu is not for anything else, but because he wants to get close to all the heroes for a few days. After Sun Ce's army retreats, Xu will definitely set up a banquet to send it to everyone."

Before Xu Gong finished speaking, there was an uproar everywhere. Xu Gong said beautifully: How many days after being close to Duoduo, to put it bluntly, everyone was put under house arrest. Wait until Sun Ce's army retreated? Then how could Sun Ce withdraw his troops if he intends to take down Wujun? Everyone in the meeting understood that Xu Gong was going to use force to coerce, tie various forces to his chariot, and act according to his intentions.

Since crossing the river, everyone has heard of the invincible aura that Sun Ce has been tempted by. If it weren't for the point where there was no way out, no one would have sacrificed his family's fortune to fight. Now, Xu Gong wants to cut off all the retreats left by each family and force everyone to work hard for him. Wouldn't that be a big deal?

Lu Xun was not outdone and shouted: "Zhu Zhi's army is not far from Youquan. Can Prefect Xu think that with your strength, can you stop it?"

Xu Gong sneered and said, "Of course, Xu's strength alone is not enough, so I invite you to come here to discuss the fight against the enemy. I believe that as long as you can work together with me, not to mention Zhu Zhi, even if Sun Ce comes in person, there is nothing scary."

Xu Gong raised his voice straight, and the sharp voice pierced his ears, but now no one in the venue believed his nonsense anymore. There were a few people who were very smart and were already asking for help from the servants to find out if there was another path to go down the mountain.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Zhang, take advantage of this chaos and I will take you out!" Zhu Huan pulled out the ring-headed knife and roared angrily.

Gu Yong smiled bitterly and said, "Xu Mu, with your martial arts, it is possible to break out. However, Mr. Zhang and I are both scholars, and they are powerless. It is not easy to escape safely!"

As the stalemate was in sight, Xu Gong waved his hand and several sword-holding men jumped out of the rocks and dense forests everywhere.

"I think you don't have to think about going back. Taishou Xu wants to stay for everyone for a few days, so everyone will stay for a few more days. If you are anxious, you will send a family to send a message first, and say that the master is waiting by fist. You just need to order the private soldiers of the army to come over, so everything is easy to say, otherwise——— this wooden pillar will be a role model." Yan Yu shouted, his face trembled, and murderous aura slashed down with a knife. The wooden pillar as big as a bowl on the side was immediately cut into two pieces.

Look at this show, Xu Gong and Yan Baihu have invested a lot. If anyone dares to refuse, they will probably have to move their heads and be in a different place. I turned sideways and was about to remind Lu Xun not to stand up again, but he saw his eyes staring at Yan Yu tightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to calm.

Lu Xun said in a deep voice: "Donalds, Xu Gong and Yan Yu are prepared. We should not act rashly. It is better to agree to the two thieves for the time being and wait for the opportunity."

I smiled at Lu Xun with a knowing smile. My worries seemed to be redundant. Lu Xun was familiar with the "Three Strategies", "Six Strategies" and the battle strategies of various philosophers. Over the past few days, he talked with me about the battle examples in Sun Tzu's Art of War and explained it very well. I, who was a monk halfway through the journey, knew that Lu Xun naturally understood it.

...

"What is this?" asked the soldiers on the mountain road with a letter they found from me.

I said, "This is my master who is afraid that the mansion manager will not believe it, so I will take it back with me by writing it."

"Then go quickly--if your master's life is slow, you will not be able to save it." The soldiers who held the mountain road cursed and scared them with weapons.

I was mixed with the slaves who were released and passed the message and ran towards the foot of the mountain. The letter was written by Lu Xun to Zhu Zhi in the name of "Four surnames of Wuzhong". If Xu Gong discovered it, the plan to escape from trouble that Lu Xun and I had been painstakingly planned will be ruined. Fortunately, the soldiers did not interrogate them too much, otherwise—.

Along the way, the afternoon sun melted the snow, and a few wintersweets bloomed with the snow, dotted with gray and white fields, and several sparrows were chirping, flying down the road, digging the soft soil with their sharp claws, and eating the remaining fruits in autumn. In this cold winter, the paintings composed of auspicious snow, wintersweets, and birds are unique and moving.

When I saw someone passing by, the sparrow was shocked to flap up its wings early and flee to the gray sky. Unintentionally, I, a hurried pedestrian, became a disaster for all these beautiful things. Humans are the best among all natural creatures, but it is this best person who is destroying the beauty and harmony of nature.

After Xu Gong and Yan Baihu joined forces, they were much stronger than the four surnames of Wuzhong. In addition, they had been planning for a long time and could not defeat the power of the children of the four surnames. If they want to escape, they must rely on stronger power.

This is my mission to go to Youquan, and to persuade Zhu Zhi to cooperate with the four surnames to turn against each other in front of the formation.

"How can I get a tiger's son if I don't enter the tiger's den?" Although this time, I went there was a dangerous situation, but I was not sure. Zhu Zhi was the old subordinate of Sun Jian. He first followed Sun Jian to conquer the Zhou Dynasty and Suma, and then attacked Dong Zhuo from Jian. He was an experienced and steady general. Sun Ce did not send others, but sent Zhu Zhi not to drive away Xu Gong. His greater purpose was to appease the people, quell the bandits, and manage Wu County to be the governing ground.

By fist.

This place is less than five miles away from the former site of the Battle of Wu Yue and Li in Wu. Among the folks in Wuzhong, it is said that in the three lunar days, the wind and clouds are opened, and the ridges and wells are seen, which is named after the boxing. Zhu Zhi's two thousand men drove straight into Qian Tang, and passed through Wucheng, Haiyan and other places. The bandits broke out when they touched it and fled. Within two days, they arrived at the gate of Wuzhong - Youquan.

"Who dares to come here to peek at our army's information. Are you really impatient to live?" As soon as I approached Zhuzhi camp, I was discovered by soldiers in the patrol camp, and then tied me up in big ties.

"I have something important to do, take me to see your general." I didn't struggle, and let the soldiers tie my hands and feet.

A soldier from Huaiwu next to me pushed me and cursed: "Hey, who do you think you are? Do you want to see the general, right? First, ask if the whip in my hand agrees?"

After saying that, the whip was raised high, and he was about to hit me.

I opened my eyes wide, stared at him, and shouted loudly, "If you are not afraid of losing your head, just call me." Perhaps because I was shocked by my momentum, and I didn't know my background, the soldier was stunned on the spot, and the whip was raised in the air, and he didn't dare to fall down.

After a stalemate for a while, the soldier finally said dejectedly: "Okay, I'll take you to see the general. If you are panicked, the general will naturally deal with you."

Zhu Zhi’s big tent.

Two rows of armored guards were lined up in the hatchback with knife rings. In the middle of the tent, Zhu Zhi was wearing military uniform and sat upright behind the desk. I looked over carefully and saw that Zhu Zhinian was about forty years old, with a rosy face and a smart and refined look.

Zhu Zhi looked me up and down for a long time and asked, "I just reported that I had something to come to me, but you?"

I sneered and looked up at the roof of the big tent, as if I hadn't heard Zhu Zhi's question.

Seeing my expression like this, Zhu Zhi suddenly appeared in his eyes and asked, "But do you have something to look for me?"

I slowly moved my eyes from the top to Zhu Zhi and said slowly: "I told you something just now, but now there is nothing else-."

Zhu Zhi stood up and shouted: "How dare you deceive me, junior?"

I looked calm and said, "I dare not."

Zhu Zhi slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Come here, pull this arrogant person out and kill him with a stick." As soon as Zhu Zhi finished speaking, the guards waiting rushed forward and wanted to drag me out.

I laughed loudly and said proudly: "I really didn't expect that Yang Ren defeated Dong Zhuo. Zhu Junli, who was fighting against the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou, was a person with a false reputation. It's so sad!"

"etc--."

Zhu Zhi waved his hand and drank the guards, gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me clearly, Zhu Zhi is just a false reputation. If I can't tell you why, I will not die well."

I glanced at the rope on my body and smiled, "Are you afraid that I will attack in full view of everyone?"

Zhu Zhi snorted coldly and said, "Release."

After the ropes were gone, I stepped forward, bowed and asked, "Is this the only way to entertain guests in your army?"

The guards on both sides saw that I was getting more and more greedy, and they all seemed to be endless. They held their swords and guns tightly and waited for Zhu Zhi to give the order, and rushed up to dismember my scattered blade.

At this time, Zhu Zhi calmed down and ordered his left and right, "Come on, watch the seat and serve you!"

After a moment, the soldiers put on the best wine in the army. I picked up the wine bottle, greeted Zhu Zhi, who was looking at me coldly, and said, "Thank you, General!"

After drinking, I put down the wine bottle and said seriously: "I was sent by the rich families of Gu, Zhang, Zhu and Lu in Wuzhong to come and offer the best strategy to attack Wu County. The general is willing to listen carefully."

Zhu Zhi sneered: "Xu Gong, Yan Baihu and others are just clowns who jump into the red and jump, and they can be captured in one battle. What is the difficulty in capturing Wu County? Do I have to use your plan?"

I shook my head and sighed, "A general has experienced many battles. He should know that it is easy to fight the country and difficult to defend the country. Gu, Zhang, Zhu and Lu have lived in Wuzhong for several generations, and the people respect it. If the general wants to appease the people, he should first recruit the four surnames. If the four surnames surrender to the general, Wu County will be safe for a long time. If the other side is the general, even if the general defeats the two thieves Xu Yan in one battle, it will be useless."

Zhu Zhi heard that I was right and asked, "I don't know what good ideas are there for the noble envoy, please tell me quickly."

I took out the letter written by Lu Xun from my arms and submitted it to me, saying, "The specific plans are written on it, please read it."

After seeing this, Zhu Zhi's anger disappeared, he was filled with joy, and said with a high-high high, "Okay. I'm sorry, I'll send you back and report: In the future, I will raise the flag as a trumpet and turn against you in front of the formation."

Zhu Zhi's tone was much more polite than when he first saw me. When I looked at Zhu Zhi's face full of spring breeze, I suddenly thought of four words in my mind: front and back.

Spring of the first month of the first year of Jian'an.

After Huqiu formed an alliance, Xu Gong's coalition went to Youquan and confronted Zhu Zhijun in the wilderness of Shanyin.

In this battle, the total force of Xu Gong coalition was 5,000, composed of Xu Gong's private soldiers, Yan Baihu Army and the troops of the four surnames of Wuzhong, and the troops of each unit were as follows.

Xu Gong's army, two thousand men;

Yan Baihu Army, one thousand two hundred men;

Gu, Zhang, Zhu, and Lu, one thousand people;

Other tribes of the nobles, eight hundred people;

Although the Xugong coalition forces have the advantage in the number of troops, most of the tenants and slaves who have just been recruited have been collected, and after military training, they have been calculated to be less than 30%. In addition, their equipment disadvantages are far from that of Zhu Zhi's elite soldiers.

Among these five thousand people, the strongest combat power was undoubtedly Xu Gong and Yan Baihu's troops. According to common sense, they should be at the forefront of the queue, but now it is just the opposite. The four surnames and noble tribes with poor combat power were pushed to the forefront. Behind him were Xu Gong's two thousand private soldiers, and on both sides were the cruising Yan Baihu's army.

Once such a funnel formation is fought, it is very easy for the enemy to break through from the front. The defeat in the front line will disperse the formation of the rear team, which will lead to the collapse of the entire army. Perhaps only outsiders like Xu Gong will put forward such a must-lose formation. For the rich families of the four surnames, this situation is extremely unfavorable. It can be said that it is to be killed. It is extremely difficult to survive in death.

"Now there are enemy soldiers in front, Xu Gong is pressing against each other behind, and Yan Baihu is surrounded by him on both sides. Is it really a Jedi?" Zhang Yun sighed.

"Old thief Xu Gong, I'm fighting with you!" Zhu Huan cursed angrily.

It was related to life and death. For the sake of precautions, Xu Gong heard that after I rushed back from Zhuzhi's camp, I only found an opportunity to tell Lu Xun about conspiracy with Zhuzhi. The rest of Gu Yong, Zhang Yun, and Zhu Huan were not aware of it.

Lu Xun looked calm at this moment and said, "Brother Xiu Mu, don't be anxious. Now is not the time to fight." When the young Lu Xun first entered the battle formation, he had a demeanor of commanding. He stared at the enemy formation with a bright look, with a focused and calm expression, as if the battlefield was originally set for him.

"What do you know about kids? When the enemy comes, swords and guns don't have eyes." Zhu Huan could no longer hold back and wanted to turn around and fight hard. Under his command, the four tribes shouted in unison, turning around to Xu Gong to fight to the death. In the eyes of these ordinary soldiers, Zhu Huan, who is famous for his bravery, is undoubtedly more trustworthy than Lu Xun, who is full of scholarly spirit.

Seeing that Lu Xun could not control the situation, I was in a hurry and rushed towards Zhu Huan. When I chased the two horses together, I reached out and grabbed the reins of Zhu Huan's riding horse, and raised the front hooves high with great momentum.

"Who are you, dare to stop my mount?" Zhu Huan was furious.

I pointed to the back formation and shouted: "You are the bravery of ordinary men. Isn't this just a trap of Xu Gong?"

Zhu Huan looked in the direction of my finger and saw Xu Gong's soldiers slapped their bows and arrows a hundred steps away, waiting for the battle. As long as we had any abnormal movements, they would immediately launch arrows at each other, shooting us two thousand people into hedgehogs. On the left and right, Yan Baihu's troops also held swords and guns and pointed the tip of the gun at us.

"Hmph, our soldiers are in desperate situation. Anyway, we will die there, so why not be more happy, maybe there is still a little chance." Zhu Huan was still unwilling to say.

Lu Xun shouted: "Whoever says that going toward each side is death, and we will rush forward and be the way to live."
