Yuan Shu looked at everyone present, but no one rose to the challenge. Instead, they all avoided his gaze.
When Dong Zhuo sent a letter before, the messenger was killed by Yuan Shu. The people sent now would most likely die.
Yuan Shu's eyes flashed coldly, fell on Tian Feng, and said lightly: "Yuan Hao, how about you go for me?"
Tian Feng looked calm, raised his hand, and said, "What if Dong Zhuo doesn't fall for it?"
Yuan Shu sneered and asked, "Does he have any choice?"
Yuan Huan followed up and said, "Military Advisor Tian, those letters are fermenting in Luoyang City. No one can tolerate the old thief Dong anymore. In my opinion, the old thief who is in a dilemma may still surrender to the lord."
Tian Feng ignored him, pretended to think, and said, "Okay."
Seeing Tian Feng like this, Yuan Shu's murderous intent grew stronger. He looked directly at Gao Lan and Zhang He and said, "You two each lead 10,000 soldiers and be ready for orders!"
"I obey your command!" Gao Lan and Zhang He raised their hands in response.
Yuan Shu looked towards Pei County with cold eyes and said, "I want to see what choice the old thief makes!"
Everyone smiled at each other. In their opinion, Dong Zhuo had reached a dead end. Whether he surrendered or not, he would be dead.
At the same time, in Pei County, Dong Zhuo was warmly receiving Fu Wan, Marquis of Buqi.
The two men sat down in the back hall. Without waiting for tea or pleasantries, Dong Zhuo raised his hand impatiently, his old face full of smiles, and said, "I would like to congratulate Marquis Buqi on his promotion to Grand Herald. His future is limitless."
Fu Wan was so nervous that he didn't care about such flattery. He said carefully and with pretentious dignity: "Mr. Dong, His Majesty has ordered you to command the troops of Yu, Xu, and Jing to destroy Yuan Shu as soon as possible to stabilize the people's hearts!"
Dong Zhuo suddenly sat up straight and said in a deep voice: "Within ten days, I will send troops to destroy Yuan!"
Fu Wan was startled and asked, "Ten days?"
Jia Xu said, "Angel, first, we need to coordinate the troops of the three states; second, Lord Dong has found out that Yuan Shu's food and grass can only last for ten days at most."
Fu Wan didn't know much about military affairs. He thought for a moment and said, "Then, I will wait for ten days."
Seeing that Fu Wan had no spirit, Dong Zhuo stood up, walked towards Fu Wan, took his hand and said, "Come here, Lord Buqi. It will only take me a moment to destroy Yuan Shu. I have obtained many good things recently. Please appreciate them, Lord Buqi."
Fu Wan was good at metaphysics and bronze and stone, and said quickly: "Mr. Dong, the war is imminent, you must not be distracted..."
Dong Zhuo didn't give any explanation and pulled Fu Wan towards the side door, saying, "These are just trivial matters, don't worry about them, Lord Buqi. I have spent a lot of time collecting these..."
Jia Xu, Niu Fu, Hua Xiong and others watched Fu Wan being dragged away. When the footsteps disappeared, Hua Xiong sneered and said, "This angel is nothing but this!"
Jia Xu flicked the corner of his clothes and felt relieved when he saw that his new clothes were free of stains. He said, "Hua Xiong, you select 5,000 soldiers for the right wing, Guo Si selects 5,000 soldiers for the left wing, Zhang Ji and Hua Xiong, you select 20,000 soldiers for the center army."
Several people were startled when they heard this and asked, "Military Advisor, do we really want to fight?"
According to their previous strategy, they would drag the battle until Yuan Shu ran out of food and supplies and collapsed and retreated. They would then follow and kill him, and soon they would be able to control most of Yuzhou.
Jia Xu looked outside the door in the direction of Yuan Shu's camp, his eyes like a snake, and said: "If the court wants to kill Lord Dong, they must be cautious."
The four of them immediately understood and raised their hands and said, "I obey your orders!"
"Wenhe, then what should I do?" Niu Fu was stunned when he saw that it had nothing to do with him.
Jia Xu smiled and said, "The General of the Central Army remains the same, disguised as a bandit, plundering and suppressing the bandits at the same time."
In short, they pretended to be bandits and robbed today, and changed their clothes to become government soldiers to fight against bandits tomorrow. After robbing for a while, they asked those noble families to give them money and food to support them in fighting against bandits.
Eat two for one fish.
"Okay!" Niu Fu was very good at this kind of thing and was most happy to do it.
At this moment, we were in a valley thirty miles outside Pei County.
Huangfu Jian looked at the imperial edict in his hand, his hands trembling, his facial features distorted, and it was completely unclear what expression he had.
Shi A held the sword, glanced at the twenty or so black-clad guards in front of him, and said nothing.
Although yellow has been the preferred color by the government and the public since King Sejong, black is still the color used for important occasions such as royal sacrifices. The fact that these guards are dressed in black shows how much importance the palace attaches to them.
Huangfu Jian was excited for a long while, then he looked up and said to Shi A in a daze: "Old Shi, I, I am the captain of the imperial city. I command 3,000 people. I am a captain..."
Shi A didn't care about these at all, and said calmly: "Be careful, you can die at any time."
Huangfu Jianchang struggled to control his expression, and sighed to the sky, then said with a smile: "Before I die, I must do something great. The biographies of our Huangfu family and the county annals will have to include a few more pages of my work."
Shi A ignored him and said, "Now that Marquis Buqi has entered Pei County, what are you going to do?"
Huangfu Jianchang did not answer him. Instead, he stared with a fiery gaze at a black and red official uniform, seal, and sword held in the hands of a guard not far in front of him. This was his official uniform of the Imperial City Captain!
Shi A frowned and said, "You want to change it now?"
Huangfu Jian suddenly became alert, shook his head and said, "It's all put away. Don't worry, don't worry, I have arranged everything. They will have to fight even if they don't want to!"
Shi A and Huangfu Jianchang are almost inseparable, but he finds that he understands Huangfu Jianchang less and less. This person has done so many things without him knowing!
Shi A suddenly felt something was wrong, stood up a little straighter, and said, "What are you going to do?"
Huangfu Jian laughed and said, "I borrowed three thousand soldiers from General Xu Zhonglang, and they will arrive in two days."
Shi A immediately understood, stared at Huangfu Jianchang, and said, "You went to Yanzhou not to monitor Cao Cao, but to borrow troops."
Huangfu Jianchang's heart trembled, and he glanced at Shi A from the corner of his eye. He suddenly rushed over, hugged his shoulders, and whispered: "This is a secret given by His Majesty. Only I am allowed to know it. Don't think too much about it."
Shi A held the sword tightly in his right hand, his eyes calm.
Huangfu Jian held the hilt of the sword with his left hand and said, "It's true. I'll tell you another secret. I sent people to deliver letters to Yuan Shu and Dong Zhuo respectively. They have to fight even if they don't want to."
Shi A pulled the sword hard, but was pushed back by Huangfu Jian's long hands.
Shi Ada frowned, expressionless, and said, "If I were your benefactor, you would definitely not be alive today."
Huangfu Jian held the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands and sighed, "With your temper, you probably won't survive until now."
Shi A's face twitched, and he kept comforting himself in his heart: This is the son of my benefactor, and he saved my life. I have gained a lot by following him...
……
One day later, Pei County.
Dong Zhuo was addicted to wine and sex all day long, and forced Fu Wan to go with him. Fu Wan was extremely reluctant, but he couldn't resist and got drunk several times.
At this moment, Dong Zhuo held another grand banquet, with music and singing girls. It did not seem like a war on the front line, but more like the city of Luoyang, full of decadence and decadence.
Fu Wan drank a lot and slept little. He looked dazed and sleepy, and he could hardly open his eyelids.
Hua Xiong came in from outside, glanced at the extremely sleepy Fu Wan, and walked up to Dong Zhuo and whispered, "Mr. Dong, Yuan Shu's military advisor, Tian Feng, is here."
Dong Zhuo glanced at Fu Wan and said loudly, "Please come in."
Fu Wan was awakened and looked at Dong Zhuo in confusion.
Dong Zhuo waved his hand, and the singing girl and the others withdrew. Then he smiled and said to Fu Wan, "Buqi Hou, Yuan Shu's military advisor, Tian Feng, is here."
Fu Wan instantly became much more sober, straightened his clothes, and sat up straight.
Not long after, Tian Feng, dressed in ordinary clothes, came in alone.
He looked around and said directly to Dong Zhuo: "Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu orders you to surrender, otherwise you will be cut into pieces."
Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment and stared at Tian Feng with wide eyes.
Not only him, Fu Wan, Jia Xu, Niu Fu and others were also stunned. Is this how one persuades others to surrender? Isn't this a way to die?
Tian Feng ignored all the gazes and only looked at Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo looked puzzled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"Why should I fear death?" Tian Feng said calmly. He really came here with the intention of dying. If he died here, for the sake of his reputation, Yuan Shu would not kill his relatives!
Dong Zhuo and Fu Wan looked at each other, and then looked at Jia Xu.
Jia Xu suddenly asked, "How many days can Yuan Shu's food and grass last?"
Tian Feng glanced at him and said, "Five days at most. However, he is collecting money from everywhere, so he should be able to hold out for two more days."
Seeing Tian Feng's cooperation, Dong Zhuo looked at Jia Xu in confusion.
Fu Wan is still not conscious and is unable to comprehend what Tian Feng is saying for a while.
"Mr. Dong!"
Suddenly, Zhang Ji came in hurriedly from outside, his face excited. He came to Dong Zhuo, handed him a piece of paper, and whispered, "This is Yuan Shu's battle formation map."
Dong Zhuo opened his eyes, took it and spread it on the table.
This picture is depicted very clearly, with the location of Yuan Shu's camp, the deployment of the army, the generals leading the troops, the time of changing guard, and even the important grain and fodder areas all clearly shown.
Dong Zhuo looked up at Zhang Ji and asked, "Is this true?"
Zhang Ji nodded heavily and said, "There is a fellow villager of mine in Yuan Shu's army. He has been passing on messages to me before and has never missed one."
Dong Zhuo's eyes flickered coldly and he looked at Jia Xu sideways.
Although Jia Xu didn't know what the paper was, he nodded slightly.
Dong Zhuo's old face was motionless for a while, and suddenly he said with a smile: "Military Advisor Tian, please take a seat, play music, and dancers..."
When Tian Feng saw that Dong Zhuo did not kill him, he felt a little disappointed. He remained expressionless and sat down next to Fu Wan.
Fu Wan was still a little drowsy and frowned hard, trying to understand what was going on.
……
Two days later, Yuan Shu’s camp.
The atmosphere in the camp was somewhat depressing.
The expected situations such as the court sending people to capture Dong Zhuo, or Dong Zhuo becoming desperate and causing the army to fall into chaos, did not happen. Pei County was quiet, but Yuan Shu's military supplies were almost exhausted.
In addition, Tian Feng never returned and there was no news of him, which gradually made Yuan Shu's camp restless.
Rumors such as food and grass were running out, a fight to the death, and withdrawal were quietly circulating in the army.
Yuan Shu sat in a high position, looking down at everyone with an expressionless face, and asked: "What countermeasures do you have?"
Dong Zhuo stood still like a mountain, and the pressure was put on Yuan Shu.
Xu You stopped talking and moved back, trying to hide in the crowd as much as possible.
It was originally a brilliant plan, but he didn't expect that the people in Luoyang City did not fall for it, so his brilliant plan failed. It was also delayed for such a long time, which naturally made Yuan Shu very dissatisfied with him.
Others didn't dare to say anything. They were running low on food and supplies, so they couldn't just attack by force, right?
Everyone knew that they now had only one option - to withdraw.
Yuan Shu took in everyone's expressions and saw that Yuan Huan's seat was empty. He asked indifferently, "Where did Yao Qing go?"
Before he finished speaking, Yuan Huan came in from outside at a rapid pace. Without caring about being rude, he went straight upstairs and whispered in Yuan Shu's ear, "My lord, the old thief is planning to attack the camp tonight!"
