Xiaoqi

If Lu Bu is compared to the superstar of this era, then Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes from all walks of life are equivalent to "wrists" who are neither popular nor purple and have extraordinary backgrounds. Because of his strength, he gave him three points in every way.However, now all the halos on Lu Bu's head have been taken off, and his reputation for half a lifetime has been ruined.After being completely knocked down from the altar, the princes from all walks of life will no longer give in to him.This moment.It would have been hard for the princes from all walks of life not to take the opportunity to ridicule him, but the previous glory no longer exists, and they will no longer look up to him as before. And there will be no more fear in my heart.

And this is precisely the fundamental reason why everyone in the world wants to be famous. This is how the so-called celebrities, famous generals, and tiger generals came to be, and this is how they fell from the altar.A person who becomes famous can easily obtain fame and fortune that others cannot obtain in a lifetime. However, when his reputation is ruined one day, everything that was easy to obtain will gradually leave him, and he will even die on the battlefield or in the mansion. In the middle, there is no good end.

This is the reality, not only for the people of later generations, but also for the predecessors.Because, whether it is the predecessors or the descendants, there is one thing in common, that is, we are all human.The times will change, the way of thinking will also change, and even the skin color and race may change, but human nature is eternal??

"Thank you, leader, for your concern. Lu Mou is fine, and I can fight myself."

Hearing Yuan Shao's inquiry, Lu Bu's expression changed slightly, then he frowned and fell silent.After a while, he finally replied, but his words sounded kind, but his tone was very blunt, and he didn't turn his head to look Yuan Shao squarely, as if he was talking to himself without looking sideways.

Obviously, although Lu Bu was not extremely intelligent and wise, he was not stupid either.At this time, he also sensed the changes in the mentality of the princes from all walks of life, which made him very angry, but the situation is stronger than others, and the facts are all there, so what can we do?

This was the first time in recent years that Lu Bu paid attention to other people's attitudes towards him. He had never done this before, because he didn't need to care about other people's attitudes at all, let alone look at other people's faces.But from time to time, inexplicably, he is now particularly concerned about other people's attitudes towards him. It seems that the fierce battle just now made him suddenly narrow-minded. He is very sensitive to the way others look at him and his face, and he is easily angry. .

"It's good that Fengxian is in good health. You are the chief general of my allied war cavalry, and a banner of my 40 allied soldiers. This time breaking through the enemy line, it's all thanks to Fengxian's might. Hehehe!" He squinted and looked at Lu Bu gloomyly. With a stiff side face, Yuan Shao's eyes flashed with a trace of anger, but he still smiled when he spoke, showing his emotions and anger.

"What does the lord mean by these words, please explain clearly?" Lu Bu turned his head to look at Yuan Shao with a slightly dazed expression, pretending to be calm, and asked in a low voice.

Yuan Shao smiled slightly and said concisely: "Without him, after the chariot battle is over, Fengxian will lead the cavalry to charge. At that time, Fengxian must break through the Chinese army's battle formation where Thief Li is, and seize the opportunity for our allies If this is the case, Fengxian will be the first victory in this battle. After this battle, you can choose two counties from the counties of Sili; otherwise, the battle situation will be very unfavorable to our allies. The matter is very important, and Fengxian must do his best With all my strength, Yixue is ashamed of being defeated just now. Does Feng Xian have any objections to this?"

"Oh?" Lu Bu was stunned when he heard the words, an unconcealable anger flashed across his face instantly, his eyes were gloomy and cold, with a murderous look faintly flashing.Fortunately, he didn't lose his mind. After forcing his mind, he forced himself to calm down.

"If Lu remembers correctly, according to the original strategy, the infantry should attack after the chariot formation, and the cavalry should charge last, right? I don't know why the leader changed the original strategy on the spur of the moment? Lu was very puzzled by this, I also ask the lord to enlighten me."

"Huh? Hahaha!" Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, and a look of anger appeared on his face for a moment. After a flash, he smiled calmly: "Fengxian was right. Originally, the war cavalry was indeed the last to charge, but that This arrangement will only be made when the chariot formation breaks through Li Thief's army. The current situation is not optimistic. Our chariot formation has lost to the enemy and is in danger of overturning at any time. This is completely inconsistent with our previous plan .

Feng Xian is a veteran general on the battlefield, so he naturally understands the principle that soldiers are impermanent and water is impermanent. The battlefield changes rapidly, so the deployment of troops must also change accordingly.If it remains unchanged, it will drag down the entire Allied Army and put our army in a dangerous situation of extreme passiveness.As the leader of the alliance, how could Yuan stick to the routine and not know how to adapt, so as to mislead himself and the army?

Therefore, the unfinished mission of the chariot formation will be completed by the cavalry. It is necessary to tear through the central defense line of the Xiliang army, lay a solid foundation for our army to attack, and then defeat Li Thief and the Xiliang army in one fell swoop.In this way, Feng Xian can understand it, so why don't you have any objections? "

"Well, that's how it is." Lu Bu nodded thoughtfully, then turned to look at Zhang Yan beside him, and said in a harmonious voice, "General Zhang Yan must have heard what the leader said, I wonder what General Zhang intends?"

"General Fengxian can make a decision, and Zhang has no objection." Zhang Yan smiled indifferently when he heard the words, and said perfunctorily with a smile.

Lu Bu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and Yuan Shao suddenly interjected: "General Zhang Yan is too self-effacing. The general is the commander of the left-wing cavalry, with [-] cavalry in his hand. He is the mainstay of our allied forces. How can we underestimate ourselves. If General Zhang has If you have any ideas, you might as well say it directly, so as not to delay the fighter.”

Zhang Yan was not angry at all after hearing the sound, still with a smile on her face, she said with a smile: "Since the leader asked, Zhang will be outspoken. Please forgive me for asking, my allied army is only [-] cavalry, and it is still The mixed cavalry drawn out temporarily, and the Xiliang iron cavalry are three times as large as mine. The gap between the two cavalry is so great, why did the leader order the cavalry to attack first?

Facing the brave Xiliang iron cavalry, my [-] cavalry is no match for the Xiliang army.Wouldn't it be like repeating the mistakes of the chariot formation to attack Li Thief's middle army in such a way, and there will be no return? "

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shao's complexion finally changed, his expression became gloomy instantly, and he looked at Zhang Yan with extremely unfriendly eyes.But Zhang Yan remained steadfast, turning a blind eye to Yuan Shao's cold eyes, and still had a smile on his face, with a hint of provocation in that smiling expression.

It is true that Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao have always been at odds, this is no secret among the allied forces, and it has been shown as early as the beginning of the alliance.After all, just before this alliance, Yuan Shao led troops to conquer the Black Mountain bandits many times. Zhang Niujiao, Yu Du and other Black Mountain leaders died in the hands of the Jizhou army, in fact, they died in the hands of Yuan Shao.The two sides have been fighting for several years, with deep grievances and many contradictions. It seems to be an irreconcilable situation. It is definitely not an ally that can resolve the grievances accumulated over the years.

In addition, [-] of the [-] cavalry on the left wing of the Allied Forces belonged to Zhang Yan's headquarters, accounting for almost [-]% of the cavalry on the right wing.

And among the 1 Montenegrin cavalry, there is also a complete light cavalry, with no more than [-] people. This is Zhang Yan's descendant cavalry Feiyan Qingqi; The brave men selected from theTherefore, these Black Mountain cavalry are the elite troops with the strongest combat effectiveness under Zhang Yan's command.

Chapter 746

And among the 1 Montenegrin cavalry, there is also a complete light cavalry, with no more than [-] people. This is Zhang Yan's descendant cavalry Feiyan Qingqi; The brave men selected from the

Therefore, these Black Mountain cavalry are the elite troops with the strongest combat effectiveness under Zhang Yan's command.

If all the elite cavalry were killed in this battle, then the strength of the Montenegrin Army would drop by more than [-]%.In the future, if Yuan Shao sent troops into the mountains to encircle and suppress again, wouldn't the Black Mountain Army be completely annihilated?

Therefore, Zhang Yan naturally did not want to be cannon fodder for the Allied forces, let alone work for Yuan Shao.Because Yuan Shao's order is clearly intended to use the hands of the Xiliang Army to eliminate Feiyan Qingqi, the most combative of the Black Mountain Army. Thousands of women and children and their families.

This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone, and can achieve the effect of killing two birds with one stone.Yuan Shao, on the other hand, is just sitting on his hands for profit, no matter what the result is, he will make a steady profit without losing money.

How can such tricks be hidden from Zhang Yan?

Therefore, he unceremoniously stated Yuan Shao's sinister intentions, implying that he refused to fight.

And this is exactly the difference between Zhang Yan and Lu Bu.Because Lv Bu is a very face-saving person, he led Yanzhou and became a vassal all the way. He valued status and face in everything, so the status of an ally trapped Lv Bu, making it impossible for him to directly refuse Yuan Shao's orders.

In comparison, Zhang Yan is completely different. What is his identity and status?

Zhang Yan's identity is the leader of the Black Mountain bandits, as for his status?After leaving Montenegro, he was nothing but a thief.No status at all.For such a person, identity and status are very strange to him. What he values ​​is survival and strength. As for other matters of seeking fame, it has almost nothing to do with him.

Therefore, when encountering matters related to her own interests, Zhang Yan is determined not to back down.Fighting for every inch and never giving up an inch, he did not have as many scruples as Lu Bu or other princes.Therefore, he can mercilessly reject Yuan Shao's general order.He didn't care about Yuan Shao's face as the leader of the lords.Because face is a complete luxury for him, and no one has ever given him face, so naturally he doesn't need to care about other people's face.Who made him a thief until now?

"Hmph, the thief will never change! Yuan Mou asked your opinion with good intentions. It was for your face. Don't you know how to flatter him?" Seeing Zhang Yanming's stubbornness and humiliating him in public, Yuan Shao was furious and sneered. Cece reprimanded.

"Hey hey hey!" Seeing Yuan Shao tearing his face up and insulting him, Zhang Yan sneered without blushing and heartbeat: "Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, just because you have the face to say good intentions in front of me? I don't think you are safe at all. Good intentions and sinister intentions are the truth!"

While speaking, Zhang Yan pointed to the Xiliang army formation five hundred paces away.He said angrily: "Look at the enemy army on the opposite side, there are 10,000+ cavalry. Just because of this, you still let me and General Fengxian lead [-] cavalry into the battle? Ask yourself, what is your intention? This is not a sinister intention, what is it?" ?”

"You" was exposed by Zhang Yan in public, Yuan Shao's face flushed immediately, and he pointed at Zhang Yan with a blushing neck, but he was speechless in a daze.

"What are you? Quickly retract your claws, or don't blame Zhang for being ruthless and chop off your claws!"

Now that she has publicly tore her face apart, Zhang Yan has no scruples anymore, and simply puts on a posture not to give Yuan Shao face.After sternly reprimanding Yuan Shao, he stared straight at Yuan Shao, and said solemnly: "You don't have to pretend to be a good person, and don't even try to get rid of me, Zhang Yan and General Fengxian, by the hands of the Xiliang Army, so as to achieve your goal. The purpose of monopolizing Hebei and dominating the Central Plains. Right now we are an alliance, but allies should trust each other and share weal and woe, instead of waiting for an opportunity to eliminate dissidents like you, Yuan Benchu, and wantonly weakening the troops and strength of the princes from all walks of life. Today a If you can tear open the Xiliang army's central defense line, Zhang and General Fengxian will lead the cavalry to attack, otherwise you will never order Zhang to fight.

Since you and I have already torn faces today, I simply put the ugly words here.I, Zhang Yan, are just a Yellow Turban thief. I have died. It is a fluke to be able to survive until now. The brothers under my command are all remnants of the Yellow Turban. After today, I don’t know if I will be alive tomorrow.Therefore, even if I was defeated by the Xiliang army today, I, Zhang Yan, don't care, it's just a matter of death.I am not afraid of death, how about you? "

Speaking of this, Zhang Yan looked at Yuan Shao with disdain, and said with a sneer, "Hey, you, Yuan Benchu, are you still reluctant to die right now? To monopolize Hebei, dominate the Central Plains, compete in the world, and aspire to the top of the country, these are probably the ambitions that you, Yuan Shao, have never forgotten Aspirational?

What an ambition!It just sounds enviable. I, Zhang Yan, have had such sweet dreams, but now I don't have such unrealistic thoughts anymore.I only hope that in my lifetime, my brothers can live and work in peace and contentment, and hundreds of thousands of women and children can settle down and live a good life.As for me, Zhang Yan, if I can worship the general as a marquis and my wife and son, then my wish will be fulfilled, and I will have no regrets in this life.

On the other hand, you, Yuan Shao, have great ambitions and few talents, but are ruthless and cowardly. You don't have the ability to be an emperor, but you dream of being an emperor all day long.How can such a narrow-minded and short-sighted person achieve great things?Does League Leader Yuan think what Zhang said is true? "

"The thief insulted me too much, do you really think that Yuan can do nothing to you?" Yuan Shao shouted angrily.

"Kill me? Hahaha!" Zhang Yan looked at Yuan Shao with contempt, and laughed unscrupulously: "Three years ago, you, Yuan Shao, wanted to take my head. What happened? Today, Zhang is still standing unscathed." in front of you.

Now that the enemy is at hand, you don't want to defeat the Xiliang army, but rather kill me?Is this the true face of the Yuan Shao that I, Zhang Yan, knew, the concubine of the Yuan family who was the son of the fourth generation and the third lord, who is the leader of the princes and alliances of the Central Plains?If this is the case, Zhang will be ashamed to be with you and other people who have earned their names! "

"Ah..." Yuan Shao was really about to be driven mad by Zhang Yan, he gritted his teeth and scolded, "Zhang Yan's traitor, Yuan will never let you go!"

Seeing the quarrel between Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan intensified, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Ce and Zhang Yang looked at each other in dismay, and then looked at the tragic fight in front of them, the four of them suddenly looked gloomy, their faces were full of haze, and their eyes were filled with endless worries.

However, these are all superficial phenomena. In fact, among the four of them, some are happy and some are sad.It's just that at this moment, they all showed worried expressions. After all, we are still allies right now, and it is necessary to keep pace.

"The lord calm down, and General Zhang Yan said a few words. The enemy is in front of us, and our allied army must not be chaotic! Otherwise, once Li thief finds out, we can take advantage of this opportunity, and I will die today without a place to die!" "

Seeing the quarrel between Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, who was standing on Yuan Shao's left, had no choice but to stand up and smooth things over.Otherwise, if the two of them were allowed to continue arguing, maybe Zhang Yan might turn against each other; by then, before the Xiliang army came to fight, the allied army would fight first.

When he came forward to smooth things over, Liu Bei deeply felt that it was an extremely wrong decision for him to lead his troops to join the alliance.Today, there are many suspicions and deep-seated grievances among the princes from all walks of life. Who can really let go of the past and have no grudges?

This time, the vassals managed to form an alliance with great difficulty, but the result was that if the battle went well, it would be fine, but if the war went wrong, the vassals would push each other and refuse to fight, and it was inevitable to deliberately preserve their strength.Just like the current situation, the Xiliang army is eyeing the enemy, but the allied army is fighting among themselves at this juncture.

With such a terrible allied army, how much combat power is left, how can they defeat the powerful Xiliang army?

At this moment, Liu Bei was so worried that he was in a terrible mood.Not only him, but the other princes were also full of sorrow, with a lingering melancholy on their faces.

Therefore, at this moment, the princes from all walks of life have no intention of persuading the dispute between Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan.After Liu Bei came forward to persuade him, the others all looked on coldly and kept silent, but their eyes were very unkind, and the corners of their eyes glanced at Yuan Shao intentionally or unintentionally.

Apparently, what Zhang Yan said just now made them suddenly alert, and deeply felt that Yuan Shao had ulterior motives, which prompted them to agree with Zhang Yan, and they felt that they shared the same hatred.
