Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Liu Yu looked at the sand table of Yuzhou, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Judging from the news sent by Guo Jia, the first step of his plan has been achieved.

As long as Ruyin City was surrounded and Yuan Yao was trapped, Yuan Shu's military deployment in Yuzhou would inevitably be disrupted again.

Things turned out just as Liu Yu had expected. Not long after Ruyin City was besieged, changes occurred in the military strength of Runan County.

Liu Yu called Zhang Fei to his side, looked at the sand table and said: "Yide, the opportunity for war in Runan County has appeared. You should send troops from Chen State and first capture Xiang County. Then go all the way south and finally meet up in Pingyu."

During the time Zhang Fei was in Luoyang, Zilong had fought many battles in Runan and captured many cities.

Zhang Fei rubbed his hands excitedly. After waiting for such a long time, he was finally sent into the field.

"Don't worry, uncle. I will capture this city in less than three days."

"Yide, don't be careless. Runan is the base of the Yuan family. It won't be easy. You must not only attack the city, but also win the hearts of the people. Only in this way can you quickly occupy Runan."

"Don't worry, uncle. I will definitely do this."

"There is one more thing." Liu Yu looked at Zhang Fei, who was in high spirits, and said, "You are not allowed to drink alcohol, and you are not allowed to beat or scold the soldiers. Can you do these two things?"

Zhang Fei looked embarrassed.

"Uncle Emperor, this..."

Zhang Fei was in a dilemma. He was addicted to alcohol. He could not be happy without alcohol. He drank when he was happy and when he was sad. He drank when the weather was fine. On rainy days, he had nothing to do anyway, so he should drink even more.

As for beating and scolding soldiers after drinking, it was commonplace.

Can we not beat and scold those soldiers if they are disobedient?

They will be obedient if they are not beaten or scolded. But if they are disobedient, can we unify the orders during the battle?

Zhang Fei's logic is very simple, so simple that no one can refute it.

Liu Yu didn't want to waste his breath on him. As far as he remembered, when he tried to reason with Zhang Fei, he would just listen in one ear and out the other, and it wouldn't have much effect at all.

"Yide, remember, you are not allowed to drink before attacking Pingyu. If you can't do that, I will reconsider the selection of the leader of the army."

When Zhang Fei heard this, he instantly became anxious.

"Uncle, this... is absolutely not allowed. I promise you that I will never drink before we invade Pingyu."

Liu Yu nodded and said slowly: "You must always keep in mind that you are not allowed to beat or scold soldiers. If you dare to do it once, you will lose the opportunity to lead the army forever."

Zhang Fei opened his mouth wide. He knew Liu Yu's methods. Although he was usually gentle, humble and polite, if he really did something that he strictly prohibited, he would respond without hesitation.

"I've taken note of what the Emperor's uncle said."

Zhang Fei answered honestly.

"In that case, you should quickly organize your troops and prepare for battle."

After Zhang Fei saluted, he walked out somewhat disappointed. Although he got the chance to fight, he also lost the chance to drink.

Good fortune and misfortune are interdependent, nothing more than this.

But he was not discouraged. He preferred the feeling of conquering the battlefield to drinking.

Killing, blood, fanaticism, passion, conquest...

All of this made Zhang Fei excited.

After Zhang Fei left, Liu Yu stared at the other route of advance in a daze.

This route is from Yingchuan directly to Pingyu, and finally the three armies will meet at the foot of Pingyu city.

If everything goes well, it will only be a matter of time before we capture Pingyu.

Now he is short of manpower. After Zhang Fei left, only Liu Bei and Xu Huang are left in Luoyang City.

Luoyang City was the nominal imperial capital and the residence of the emperor.

After experiencing the last incident, Liu Yu didn't want to let Luoyang fall into danger alone.

For this reason, his decision to let Liu Bei and Xu Huang guard Luoyang will not change.

After much calculation, Liu Yu found that the only generals under his command who could lead troops were Xu Chu and Gao Shun.

Liu Yu told his plan and prepared to attack quickly when the opportunity arose.

Liu Bei had no opinion about Xu Chu, but he was a little worried about Gao Shun.

"My dear brother, although Bo Ping is brave, his heart is not with you. You must be careful when you lead him."

"It's okay." Liu Yu answered casually. He was clear about Gao Shun's character. Although he wanted to follow Lu Bu, he would not leave until the Xianzhen Camp reached its peak combat power.

"Don't worry, brother. I have my own plans. I am not worried about Gao Boping. I am just a little worried about whether this battle method will be effective."

Seeing that he had already made up his mind, Liu Bei didn't say much.

After Zhang Fei attacked Runan, Runan's military strength was further stretched.

There were many troops coming to rescue Ruyin City, but none of them could defeat Zhao Yun.

Ruyin City was still under siege.

Looking at the soldiers falling one after another, Ji Ling has already understood Zhao Yun's strategic intention.

He decisively opened the city gate and led his soldiers to charge.

As countless people fell, Ji Ling also achieved his goal. He led Yuan Yao out of the encirclement.

He looked at the ruins of Ruyin City without any nostalgia. Compared with Yuan Yao, let alone a city, even the entire Runan County could not compare with him.

If he lost Runan County, at most he would be scolded by Yuan Gonglu, but if Yuan Yao was hurt, his life would be in danger.

Although Ji Ling is a military general, he has a clear understanding of this point.

For a powerful family like the Yuan family, the most important thing is inheritance.

The most critical factor in inheritance is people.

Yuan Yao was not happy about escaping from Ruyin. Instead, there was a hint of anger on his face.

Uncle Liu actually had such means, and even I was part of his plan.

Facing such an opponent, it would be very difficult to keep Runan County.

If Runan County is lost again, it will completely shake the foundation of the Yuan family.

Will Emperor Liu, who has obtained the entire Yuzhou, give up and let the Yuan family go?

Yuan Yao wasn't sure, but if that person was him, he definitely wouldn't do that.

He would not pass up this opportunity, the chance to completely eliminate his opponent.

"Sir, I will send someone to escort you back to Jiujiang as soon as possible. Let me stay here and deal with them."

Jiujiang, this is the only way out at this point. In this situation, he no longer has any choice. As long as he stays in Runan County, he may become Liu Yu's bargaining chip.

He was the bargaining chip for annexing Jiujiang. He had been hailed as a star by thousands of people since he was born. He had never suffered such an injustice.

But now that he had already endured this humiliation, he had no way to deal with it.

One day, I will take it all back.

Yuan Yao swore secretly in his heart.

Watching Yuan Yao leave, Ji Ling's heart finally settled down.

But now he can't stay, he has another place to go, that is Pingyu.

Since Liu Yu wanted to capture Runan, the Battle of Pingyu was the key. As long as he could defend Pingyu, Runan County would still be in the hands of the Yuan family.
