The Zhang Baiqi of Hongnong and the big thief Liu Xiongming at the Wuguankou Road Crossing agreed to take effect, which immediately reversed the situation. Yuan Shang immediately ordered Zhang Yan to ask the two thieves Zhang Baiqi and Liu Xiongming to do a major task before returning to Hebei to surrender.

It is said to be a big event, but in fact it is relatively simple for the two of them, just to harass the territories behind the princes of Guanzhong!

If you don’t ask for a siege, you can remove firewood from the cauldron. As long as you make a mess, everyone knows that they will keep their rear from rest.

But there is only one premise for this matter, that is, you must not attack the territory of Ma Chao and Zhong Yao. The territory of other princes is chosen by you, and you can pick it at will.

The news was quickly passed back to Guanzhong. After learning the news, Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi and Liu Xiongming, although they did not understand the intention, they still began to send troops to mess around in the backyard of the princes of Guanzhong according to Yuan Shang's order.

Zhang Baiqi lived in Hongnong for a long time and knew the reality of Guanzhong and the territory of the princes was easy to capture.

Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi, Liu Xiongming, and all the world-famous super bandits. Not to mention how powerful they are in the war, they are all good at damaging the backyard of others.

At that time, all the grain and wheat from Duan Wei, the princes of Guanzhong were cut off.

Then the horse farms in the territory of the prince Yang Qiu were all looted.

Immediately afterwards, the city of the prince Li Kan was captured, and the courtyard of the prefect's palace was looted by the thieves. It also burned a black and black with fire. After a few days, the bad news from the rear of Guanzhong reached Hedong. The princes learned that their backyard was robbed and were shocked.

Although Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi and others did not leave their names after they were disturbed, the first idea of ​​most people was that this matter was done by Yuan!

But how did the Yuan family's troops appear in Guanzhong? How did the Hebei soldiers sneak into Guanzhong through the eyes and ears of the princes?

After thinking about it carefully, everyone felt relieved. Yuan's family dominated the four states and looked around the world. The number of soldiers, horses, money and food is unparalleled in the world. It is not impossible to install a few internal ghost troops in Guanzhong.

However, there was one thing that was like Ding Zi. It was deeply imprinted in the hearts of the princes in Guanzhong!

The Yuan army stationed in Guanzhong to harass the princes from house to house, but why did they not touch Zhong Yao and Ma Chao?

Logically speaking, Zhong Yao is a subordinate of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao and Yuan clan are irreconcilable enemies. Ma Chao has now even led six camps in Bingzhou Army, which is like the Yuan army. Why is the Yuan army alone not attacking these two important enemies?

It's too weird, right? I'm afraid there must be something strange about it!

With this question in mind, the princes of Guanzhong all had a gloomy heart, and they were all thinking about it but couldn't figure it out. The more they couldn't figure it out, the more hesitated hesitated!

At this critical moment, Yuan Shang also began to act. More than a dozen capable writers took Yuan Shang's handwritten letters and walked in separate ways to the tents of the princes, showing all the interests and starting to use provocation strategies.

********************** After Yuan Shang's various messengers completed, that night, Duan Wei, Li Kan, candidates, Ma Wan, Yang Qiu, Zhang Heng, Liang Xing and other seven princes secretly met in Duan Wei's tent and began to discuss the matter secretly.

The stars outside the tent are dotted. The atmosphere deep inside the tent is as cold as frost.

"Everyone, we brothers are here today. We are all our family members, so we don't have to pretend to be confused. I just want to ask, have you all received letters sent by someone from the Yuan family?" Duan Wei's tone was uneven, lukewarm, and it didn't sound like he was talking about major military affairs at all, but it seemed like he was chatting about family matters.

As for a few people, they looked at me and I looked at you. Although they didn't say anything, they all nodded slightly in an instant.

Duan Wei paused for a moment and then continued: "I don't know what Yuan said in the letter to you, but what I wrote to me said that this battle between the Guanzhong Allied Forces went north was actually just a plan for Ma Chao and Cao to unite, intending to reduce our power and integrate the various places in Guanzhong."

Everyone looked a little dark when they heard this, but Li Kan slowly said, "The content of the letter Yuan wrote to Duan Duan is almost the same as someone. Among them, the place in Guanzhong was divided, and the princes were not convinced for a long time. They were in trouble in the west of the Central Plains. Cao Cao wanted to unify for a long time, but he was fighting with Hebei and could not make any moves. This time, he joined us to the north to Hedong, so he wanted to take the opportunity to weaken our power and join the Ma family to support him. In the plan, Yuan Shang, Hebei seemed to have participated."

Ma Wan raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said strangely: "The content written in the public trust is roughly the same as that of a certain person, but this statement is full of loopholes and many strange things. Just imagine that the Ma family and Cao Cao are united, but how can there be Yuan's participation? You must know that what we are attacking now is Yuan Shang's territory! How can one have his own family plotting against his territory? It's ridiculous!"

Duan Wei sighed and said, "I also asked the envoy who came to my tent for this matter. He said that Cao Cao had secretly communicated with Yuan before sending troops. He said that if Yuan was willing to pretend to be an opposite side and weaken the power of the princes of Guanzhong, both sides not only gave up their past grudges, but also stopped the army for three years, but also promised Yuan Shang to be the governor of Jizhou!"

Li Kan couldn't help but snorted coldly when he heard this, "No wonder when the Yuan army swears to resist the death as soon as we send troops, guarding the camp. When Ma Chao sends troops, he throws away his armor and all of them flees. There is such a trick in it. Why did Yuan even break his promise to tell us? What kind of abacus is this? It's so suspicious!"

Liang Xing thought for a while and said, "This is full of loopholes. I suspect it was Yuan Jun's plan to dissuade him!"

Yang Qiu's eyes rolled and he thought, "It may not be possible~, I think what kind of person Cao Cao is? He is a traitor in the world! He is a dealing with him. It is no different from being a scam with a tiger~~. Moreover, Yuan and him have an indelible grudge! This awakening must be reasonable."

Zhang Heng thought for a while and said, "Everyone, I have an idea. In the previous news, a military horse suddenly appeared in Guanzhong. It was a disaster everywhere in our jurisdiction. Everyone said it was arranged by Yuan, but I didn't agree with it! Just imagine that even if Yuan was very good, how could he send a military horse to Guanzhong under our noses? It was just a joke, and this military horse just kept harming us. He did not harass Zhong Yao and Ma Teng's territory at all. His behavior was suspicious, okay?"

"Is this army not a member of the Yuan family at all, but was actually a soldier sent by Zhong Yao and the Ma family! He held a shit pot on the Yuan family for no reason?" However, some candidates from the princes opened their mouths and said what Zhang Heng wanted to say.

"Yes!"

""

The princes were talking all over the place. Guess one thing, I was talking, and it was a rash move. Sometimes it was Yuan's plan of disagreement, and sometimes it felt like Ma Chao and Zhong Yao had made some trouble in the middle to harm them. After discussing for a long time, he didn't say anything.

Everyone was chattering and making a lot of noise, so they finally focused their eyes on Duan Wei.

Duan Wei was famous in a famous family, and his troops and territory were also more prosperous than other princes, so he had a faint appearance as a leader among the crowd.

But Duan Wei thought for a long time, but finally slapped the table suddenly and said, "Everyone, according to Duan's intention, is this Yuan's plan to distract him now? It's not important. What's important is that Ma Chao has won many battles and has won many times, and has been highly appreciated by Zhong Yao! But after we sent troops several times, we have lost our troops and lost our generals. Instead, we ended up with a thankless end. If this continues, our elite soldiers will be consumed sooner or later."

Liang Xing suddenly realized when he heard this and said, "What does Duan Duan mean?"

"No matter whether Yuan's family is true or false, whether he is a disagreement or sincere advice, this battle is meaningless to us! There is no benefit at all. We might as well watch from the wall. On the one hand, we send people to ask for peace with Yuan, and on the other hand, we abide by the army and deal with Zhong Yao with silence. We do not help each other and do not offend each other. The right way to preserve our own strength! Yuan Jun and Zhong Yao and Ma Chao will win whoever love wins, and whoever loves wins. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us! Let them fight against each other!"

The candidate nodded and said, "Mr. Duan said this very kindly! No matter whether he eats a tiger or a tiger, whoever eats a wolf will be considered whoever eats it!"

"Yes! That's it!"

"I agree too!"

"Damn it, after fighting so many battles, there is no benefit! Just losing troops and generals will cost me all my family!"

"As you said, I don't care about this battle!"

*********************Yuan Jun Dazhai, the commander's tent.

Yuan Shang looked at Guo Huai, Zhao Yun and Lu Lingqi with a smile, and asked, "Have you sent all the letters?"

Guo Huai bowed and said, "What should be given away is given, but this counter-split plan may not work. Those princes are all powerful masters, and they may not turn against us just because of these few words from the lord."

Yuan Shang waved his hand and said, "It's not a counter-espionage plan, but a provocation plan! These princes are all selfish and want them to abandon Cao Cao and join us. That is impossible. The biggest effect of my move is to create a fog for them, so that they can take the initiative to observe Zhong Yao and Ma Chaosheng, and adopt a strategy of not helping each other. This is enough."

After saying that, Yuan Shang looked up at the three of them and said, "As I expected, Zhong Yao will definitely send Ma Chao to fight again tomorrow. This guy is no longer a bloody battle. He has been in charge of six camps in our army. I believe he is very proud. But now the princes are disloyal, so we should fight back appropriately. We should not let the boy named Ma be too arrogant and spoil the child."

Guo Huai woke up immediately after hearing this and hurriedly said, "What does lord mean?"

"Tomorrow, Ma Chao will attack, and we will fight with all our strength, including you three, including the first camp, Baima Yicong, Wuji Camp, how capable you are! Bring down all Ma Chao's Xiliang Iron Cavalry Kaka!"

Zhao Yun, Guo Huai and Lu Lingqi are all bloody people. They have been bullied by the Western Liang army many times in recent days, and they have already been full of evil spirits. Now when they heard Yuan Shang say this, they are all overjoyed.

However, Lu Lingqi knew Yuan Shang quite well and thought for a while and said, "You have worked so hard that you are willing to let us use all our strength to deal with Ma Chao. I'm afraid there are still some secret tricks? Anyway, things have come to this point, so why not tell me it!"
