    Solve today¡¯s dilemma!

    In Yuan Tan¡¯s opinion, these five words were the five most beautiful words he had ever heard in his life. Almost instantly, Yuan Tan almost jumped with excitement.

    But immediately, Yuan Tan¡¯s excitement was greatly reduced.

    Because the person who said these five words was Xin Ping, a tainted counselor who made repeated miscalculations and lost to Yan Liang.

    Yuan Tan temporarily suppressed his excitement, turned around, and asked calmly: "If Zhongzhi has any good ideas, you might as well tell him."

    King Wei did not give him a cold face, and Xin Ping secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    He then cupped his hands and said: "Xu Du is the foundation of the king, and we must not fail to save it. For the current plan, the king must find every way to force Yuan Shang to retreat, and then he can mobilize all his troops to the south to save Xu Du."

    "Don't I know this kind of thing yet? Do you need to remind me?" Yuan Tan said disapprovingly.

    Xin Ping coughed a few times and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty is wise, and I know very well that I just have a plan that may allow Yuan Shang to retreat without fighting."

    Hearing this, Yuan Tan and Qin Pingping's expression finally couldn't hold it anymore, and excitement burst out of their eyes.

    "Zhongzhi has a great idea, tell me quickly." Yuan Tan urged excitedly.

    Xin Ping then moved closer, lowered his voice, and explained his plan.

    After listening to Xin Ping's words, Yuan Tan had a look of enlightenment on his face. He slapped the table and said happily: "The plan is wonderful. Why didn't I think of it? Zhongzhi, you are indeed my number one counselor. If I can turn this crisis around,  , you are the greatest contributor.¡±

    Yuan Tan was so happy that he immediately put aside his previous dislike for Xin Ping. In a few words, he praised Xin Ping as his number one counselor.

    Xin Ping¡¯s cautious expression could finally be put away, and there was a rare hint of pride on the corner of his mouth.

    He stroked his beard and smiled and said: "As long as Yuan Shang retreats, the king can lead his troops back south and kill Yan Liang, a lowly common man in one go. When the time comes, he can send his troops north. The Yuan family's country will eventually be in the hands of the king."

    Xin Ping was also smart and did not forget to flatter Yuan Tan in response.

    Yuan Tan felt proud after hearing this, the gloom on his face disappeared, and he couldn't help but laugh.

    Yanling.

    The stars and moon are in the sky, and there are no clouds in the sky. Tomorrow will be a rare good weather.

    Yan Liang stood at the door of the tent, looking up at the night sky, his eyes flashing with thoughts.

    The military camp at night is like a smooth mirror, reflecting the starlight in the sky, and those little starlights are piles of bonfires.

    Amidst the aroma, pots of broth have been cooked, and the soldiers sitting around the fire are drooling and preparing to enjoy a rare meat meal.

    The night wind blew against his face, and Yan Liang felt a hint of winter cold. He turned around and returned to his tent.

    In the spacious military tent, eight huge torches were lit on the left and right sides, reflecting the warmth and brightness in the tent, which seemed like two different worlds from the cold weather outside the tent.

    On the huge table in the center of the large tent, a candle as thick as an arm was supported on each wing. The flashing red light reflected the huge map hanging next to it.

    Yan Liang¡¯s profound eyes focused on the map again.

    Xudu, Chang'an, Shouchun, Yecheng cities appeared one by one in front of his eyes, and the general trend of the world was tumbling in his mind.

    Maybe it¡¯s because of the habit of being a night owl that he developed before time travel, but at night, Yan Liang¡¯s thinking is the clearest.

    He likes to quietly think about military battles and plans in the dead of night.

    The hanging curtain was lifted from the outside, and a cold night wind took the opportunity to get into the tent, causing the torches to flicker and dance.

    "Yuan Zhi, haven't you rested yet?" Yan Liang didn't look back, and he could tell who it was just by the sound of footsteps.

    Xu Shu, who was behind him, smiled and sighed: "I am very sleepy, but unfortunately there is an urgent report from the north, which scares away all the sleepy people."

    There is an urgent report from the north

    Yan Liang¡¯s eyes moved slightly, as if he had guessed something.

    But he was not in a hurry, he just slowly turned around and sat down, pouring himself two glasses of warm wine from under the stove, one for himself and one to Xu Shu.

    "Thank you, Lord."

    After drinking a glass of wine, Yan Liang said calmly: "Could it be that boy Yuan Shang who withdrew his troops?"

    ¡°Ahem~~¡± Xu Shu¡¯s wine entered his throat and he choked on Yan Liang¡¯s understatement.

    Putting down the wine bottle, Xu Shu had a strange look on his face, but sighed: "Master, thisAs expected, it seems that these counselors like me will have nothing to eat one day.  "

    Xu Shu¡¯s self-deprecation made Yan Liang laugh.

    Xu Shu was just joking, and smiled immediately, and said: "My lord, what you expected is true. Yuan Shang did withdraw his troops from Baima, and he withdrew quickly."

    "Well, tell me why Yuan Shang withdrew his troops and see if it matches the reasons I think." Yan Liang nodded.

    Xu Shu then presented the parchment with information. Although the information contained only a few lines, Yan Liang glanced at it briefly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

    Yuan Xi, who was in power in Youzhou, finally sent out troops.

    The second son of the Yuan family, Mao Mao sat in Youzhou and watched the disputes between the Yuan family for more than half a year. Finally, when Yuan Tan Zhuo was in danger, he came to help his half-brother. Ten thousand Youzhou cavalry were sent from Fanyang County.  After a long drive south, the troops entered Zhongshan Kingdom, which belonged to Jizhou.

    "Yuan Shang's army is all in Henan, and the Zhongshan Kingdom in the north has no front-line troops. Yuan Xi stabbed him in the back so suddenly. It's strange that the Third Young Master Yuan didn't retreat."

    Yan Liang nodded slightly and asked, "I wonder what banner Yuan Xi is using?"

    Xu Shu said: "Yuan Xi rebuked Yuan Shang for tampering with Yuan Shao's orders. What he sent troops to fight this time was to support Yuan Tan as the king of Wei and to clean up the Yuan family."

    "Sure enough, he is still a softie." Yan Liang made a decisive conclusion to Yuan Xi.

    At this time, after nearly half a year of war between Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, coupled with the intervention of Liu Bei and Yan Liang respectively, the strength of the two Yuans has been greatly damaged. No matter which side they are, they have lost the ability to intimidate the world.

    ??And Yuan Xi is in Youzhou, with tens of thousands of elite Youyan troops, and he is already a force that cannot be underestimated.

    If it were Yan Liang, if he had such strength, he would definitely fight for the throne, regardless of Yuan Shang or Yuan Tan, they would defeat both of them.

    But at the moment, Yuan Xi doesn't dare to stand up for himself, and still pretends to support Yuan Tan. It's obvious at a glance that he is a person without ambition.

    Xu Shu smiled and said, "Yuan Xi is not completely soft. His third brother gave his wife to the lord. He finally dared to send troops for revenge. At least he still has some masculinity."

    Yan Liang thought of Zhen Mi who was under house arrest in Xiangyang. At this moment, if she learned that her husband dared to send troops to attack Yuan Shang only a few months after she was given to Yan Liang by Yuan Shang, I don¡¯t know how she would feel.

    "Let the two Yuan men in Hebei continue to fight among themselves. Now that Yuan Shang returns to the army, Yuan Tanbi will return to rescue Xu Du. Yuan Zhi, you should concentrate on thinking about how to deal with this kid."

    Yan Liang sneered, and his vision shifted from Hebei to Henan.

    With the current situation, Yan Liang has nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses, of which nearly 40,000 are used to besiege Xudu, while Yan Liang has only more than 10,000 soldiers in Yanling.

    And Yuan Tan mobilized an army from the north to go south, numbering at least 30,000.

    Ten thousand versus 30,000, Yan Liang did not have an advantage in terms of military strength. Although his troops were small, Yan Liang had absolute confidence that he could defeat Yuan Tan's 30,000 army with less.

    But in plains such as Yingchuan, the most important battle will be a head-on confrontation in the open field. Yan Liang will fight 10,000 against 30,000. Even if he can defeat Yuan Tan in the end, his own troops will definitely have a lot of enemies.  loss.

    Looking at the Plains of China, there are still enemies like Liu Bei who are more powerful than Yuan Tan. Yan Liang is unwilling to lose too many elite soldiers in the confrontation with Yuan Tan.

    Therefore, in this battle, the difficulty is how to defeat many with less without losing too many troops.

    Xu Shu also fell into deep thought. He had the same wisdom and morale, and Xu Shu could naturally think of what Yan Liang was worried about.

    The two masters and ministers stared at the hanging map quietly, their thoughts racing in the wilderness of Yingchuan County, and their calm eyes flashed with ever-changing expressions.

    The charcoal fire crackled in the furnace, and the smell of alcohol filled the air.

    As if due to the stimulating aroma of the wine, Xu Shu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

    "My lord, I have thought of a clever plan."

    ? ######

    Seven days later, north of Yanling.

    The cold wind is howling, the dry grass is flying, and the wilderness in the middle of winter is miserable.

    Yan Liang stood on his horse, his eyes like razors, staring coldly ahead.

    Although the big flag with the Chinese character "Yan" was still flying proudly, there were only about 6,000 soldiers and horses on the left and right, and the momentum was a bit thin compared to the tens of thousands in the past.

    A long and thick black line rises from the horizon, and countless flags, such asThe sails are generally spread.

    The black line was slowly approaching, and within a short time, Yan Liang could see the entire army clearly.

    There was a huge military formation that stretched hundreds of feet across, with densely packed heads and flying flags, overwhelming the sky. The forest armor reflected the sun, almost making the sky cold.

    In the center, the big flag with the character "Yuan" is flying with great power.

    Thousands of shield bearers lined up at the front of the military formation. The large shields they held had three layers. They were covered with cowhide on the outside, wood in the middle, and the innermost layer was wrapped with a layer of iron. The shield was so strong that even a ballista could use it.  The strongest shield that cannot be penetrated.

    "Behind the shield bearers were densely packed forest-like halberds. These halberds were more than two feet long and were enough to penetrate any heavy cavalry captured by the general.

    On the left and right wings of the military formation, thousands of light cavalry are distributed to prevent the impact of light cavalry.

    At a glance, this huge infantryman is almost like a steel behemoth covered with iron sheets. It is simply invulnerable.

    Seeing such a large formation, Yan Liang smiled.

    Yan Liang's three sharp weapons, Shenxingqi, Iron Buddha, and Ballista, were all restrained by Yuan Tan's formation. It seems that Yuan Tan has learned the lessons of several failures this time. This time it can be said that he is successful.  Come prepared.

    "Targeting me like this, Mr. Yuan, it's really hard for you" Yan Liang sighed secretly.

    But a few hundred steps away, sitting on his horse, looking around at the iron formation he had built with his spirit, Yuan Tan looked proud and proud.

    Looking at the military formation of a few thousand people from a distance, Yuan Tan sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Yan Liang, I want to see if you have the ability to break my iron formation this time!"
