Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 410
In Xuzhou, Yuan Tan put a written silk script into a brocade box in his study and summoned Yuan Lang.

Yuan Lang had just returned from Yecheng, but he didn't have time to rest for a while, he was the son of the Yuan family, and Yuan Tan was going to fight, so he would definitely guard the left and right.

Now he is directing the servants in the mansion to make various preparations, check the status of the black horse, and prepare the vest.

Maintaining Yuan Tan's usual set of armor and so on, while he was practicing martial arts in the school grounds, he was still secretly thankful.

Fortunately, I haven't slack off my martial arts training this year, otherwise I'm afraid I will suffer a big loss this time.

When he received the news that Yuan Tan summoned him, Yuan Lang who was rejoicing didn't dare to delay, he hurriedly put the spear in his hand on the weapon rack, and followed the servant back to the study in a hurry.

After arriving at the study room, he realized that he was not alone in the study room.

Xun Yu, who also served as Xuzhou's spy chief, was also busy during this time. He just received another spy report from Jingzhou, and immediately came to Qihou's mansion to meet Yuan Tan.

In addition, there are Gao Lan from the military department and Jiang Qi from the Jiangzuo Academy.

Gao Lan came to report on the preparations of Qi Hou's personal guards, while Jiang Qi came to report on the progress of the Iron Buddha Armor that Yuan Tan had ordered them to build.

Seeing Yuan Lang coming in, Yuan Tan waved his hand, signaling him not to be impatient, and just listen for a while.

Yuan Lang nodded immediately, and stood behind Yuan Tan without saying a word.

Gao Lan was the first to arrive, and he was the first to speak at this moment, cupping his hands and saying, "Your Marquis's personal guards have always been favored by the Marquis, and now they have got another batch of BMWs. At this moment, everyone is enthusiastic and excited, and they want to fight for Qihou." Kill the enemy, morale is available."

Yuan Tan nodded. The personal guards were assigned by him to the foot of Qingliang Mountain to practice and cooperate with the Futu war horses.

Morale is available now, but I don't know how the fighting ability is?
Seeing Yuan Tan's suspicious gaze, Gao Lan didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately continued: "Everyone in the royal guards is equipped with alloy swords and compound bows. They have been training twice a day in Xuzhou for a year, and their combat power is comparable When I entered Xuzhou at the beginning of the year, I went a step further, and I was called an elite."

Hearing Gao Lan's affirmative words, Yuan Tan slowly nodded and said: "Thank you General Gao, please take care of General Gao during this period of time, and make sure they maintain the best combat conditions, the Xichuan army is coming menacingly , I must win for a while before I can talk about other strategic arrangements.”

Gao Lan nodded approvingly. Both Yuzhou and Yanzhou had sent flying horses to report the day before yesterday.

Zhang Lu sent a large army from Hanzhong, with his younger brother Zhang Wei and general Yang Wu as the commander, and Yang Song's nephew Yang Ling as the vanguard, with a total of [-] troops. Now it has entered the territory of Yuzhou.

Qiao County, where Yuzhou is located, is now being guarded by Hebei General Han Hao, but there are less than [-] troops in the city, which is more than enough to defend, but not enough to retreat the enemy.

Not to mention, this [-] army is just a vanguard.

Liu Zhang from Yizhou was also persuaded by Guo Jia.

Right now, the internal contradictions in Yizhou are also quite acute. Not long after Liu Zhangxin succeeded to the throne, he was severely beaten by Yuan Tan, and his prestige was wiped out.

Many courtiers were dissatisfied, and some even wanted to send someone to invite Liu Bei from Xinye to build a barrier for Yizhou. After all, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei were both clansmen of the Han Dynasty.

Even if the authenticity of Liu Bei, a clan member of the Han Dynasty, has yet to be verified, at least in name.

With this title, Liu Bei didn't dare to mess around if he wanted to.

But how dare Liu Zhang agree to this request?Looking at Liu Bei's trajectory in the troubled times, it can be said that he voted for whoever died. First he attached to Gongsun Zan, and it didn't take long for Gongsun Zan to die in Yuan Shao's hands.

Later, he defected to Tao Qian, but Tao Qian fell ill and died again.

This Liu Bei also came to a sparrow to occupy the dove's nest, which directly became a Xuzhou shepherd.

Liu Zhang is younger than Tao Qian, but who can guarantee that he will not die suddenly?

Playing poison and conspiracy to play tricks on people's hearts, all of their clansmen in the Han Dynasty are born masters!

Liu Zhang didn't dare to take risks, but he had to deal with the sharp internal conflicts, so he could only learn from Liu Biao's operations in Jingzhou.

Turn the contradiction to the outside for the time being, and directly order Yan Yan, the commander-in-chief of Bazhou, as the vanguard, Li Yan from Yizhou as the general, and Lei Tong, Wu Yi, Wu Ban and others as his lieutenants, leading an army of [-] troops.

The troops were dispatched from Yong'an and traveled northward through Jingzhou. It is estimated that they will arrive in Yuzhou in about half a month.

In other words, at least half a month later, Qiao County will face the siege of 17 troops!

At that time, even if Han Hao is the rebirth of the overlord, he may only have to sit in the city of sorrow, not to mention that Han Hao's martial arts is at best a second-rate medium.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan turned his gaze to Xun Yu who was at the side and asked, "Mr. Xun Yu, is there any movement of Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang's two armies?"

Xun Yu hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to you, your subordinates received information from these two families three days ago. At that time, the Xichuan army led by Zhang Wei had arrived in Runan. It is estimated that it will take another five days to break out of the camp and go north... Oh, if we count from today, I am afraid that we will arrive at the city of Qiaojun in the next day."

"Oh..." Yuan Tan pondered for a moment when he heard the words, but did not rush to speak.

Xun Yu continued: "As for Li Yan and Yan Yan's Yizhou army, they just arrived in Xinye three days ago. Like Zhang Lu, they are also planning to use Runan to obtain supplies in Runan and continue northward. It is estimated to arrive in Qiao County in ten days."

"That is to say, in Qiao County, you can only guard for ten days at most?"

Before Yuan Tan opened his mouth, Gao Lan's expression became ugly. He originally thought that no matter how bad Qiao County was, he could at least stay there for half a month or even a month.

Give yourself enough reaction time here.

But now it seems that my previous thoughts were too optimistic.

Once Qiao County falls, the remaining counties and counties in Yuzhou will probably surrender one after another. At that time, Xuzhou will be directly exposed to the soldiers of the Xichuan and Yizhou coalition forces!

Yuan Tan's expression was very calm, and he didn't seem to be much shocked by the news. After thinking for a while, he said: "Take the seal of my general who conquered the East, go to Yanzhou, transfer General Liu Yan, and lead Yanzhou's [-] troops to Qiao County. Together with General Han Hao, we must defend Qiao County well."

Yuan Tan thought for a while and raised his eyes to look at Yuan Lang: "You arrange this matter, send a reliable person to Yanzhou with my seal, go back quickly, go now!"

Yuan Lang cupped his fists immediately to accept the order, and said loudly: "Here!"

After the words fell, he stepped forward to take Yuan Tan's seal of General Zhengdong with both hands, and walked out of the main hall without looking back, looking for someone to deliver the letter.
