Chapter 542 Bet

When Liu Biao was woken up from his sleep, he was shocked. After reading the military newspaper, he was both surprised and happy, and more than surprised.

Although Yuan Tan was seriously injured, he had no worries about his life. Sun Ce was unconscious. The biggest threat had been removed. He no longer had to worry about Sun Ce's sudden appearance behind him. These days, he has been in charge of military power. The one he most worried about was not Zhu Jun, but Sun Ce. He was afraid that Sun Ce would throw away Yuan Tan, so he suddenly launched an attack, making him the second Liu Bei.

"This man is really good at fighting." Liu Biao sighed and was very grateful. He said to Bian Rang who rushed over after hearing the news: "There are only eight thousand soldiers and horses that not only swallowed Liu Bei and defeated 10,000 Jiang Qi, but also fought with Yuan Envoy until both sides were injured. He was simply a genius."

Bian Rang disagreed and felt that Liu Biao was exonerating his loss of Jingzhou. "Liu Bei was not worth mentioning when using troops. Jiang Qi rushed to hundreds of miles, and the soldiers were exhausted. He was careless for a moment and was involved in Sun Ce's trick. As for Yuan Envoy, although he had more than 10,000 people, he might not be able to do his best."

Liu Biao was puzzled and was also very unhappy with Bian Rang's arrogance. "What does Wen Li mean? Yuan Envoy was seriously injured, so why don't he give his all?"

"Why don't you think about Zhang Fujun?" Bian Rang sneered: "Why is it so coincidental? Yesterday, Zhang Fujun just arrived at Xiao Huang, and Sun Ce broke through at night. Yuan Envoy and Sun Ce fought fiercely until both sides were injured, but they didn't hear anything happened to Zhang Fujun. Is it okay?"

Liu Biao's heart moved and picked up the military newspaper again. Yuan Tan did not mention Zhang Miao. This was by no means an omission, but a deliberate omission. Zhang Miao led the army to support Yuan Tan, but why he did not participate in the war is questionable. If he rushed to the scene in a hurry, it would be explained.

If this is true, the conflict between Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao will be quite deep.

Liu Biao admitted that Bian Rang's reminder was reasonable, but he was very dissatisfied with Bian Rang's attitude. He said patiently: "Sun Ce was repelled by Yuan Envoy Yuan and is now coming towards Jun Yi. Yuan Envoy Yuan is injured and wants to restrain Zhang Mengzhuo, so he may not be able to pursue him. Wen Li, see how we should deal with it. If Sun Ce appears at Jun Yi, where will he attack?"

Bian Rang stroked his beard and didn't say anything for a long time. Sun Ce was elusive and had no trace of troops to find. How could he know where Sun Ce might attack? Judging from the situation around Junyi, except for the South Gate, the other three gates were possible. But if he said that, he would definitely be laughed at by Liu Biao. He thought for a long time and finally chose the one that felt the most likely. "The East Gate had the least force, Cheng Yu had not passed the battle formation and had no military achievements. Sun Ce came from the east again. If he wanted to attack, the most likely one would naturally be the East Gate."

Liu Biao laughed secretly, while Rang looked down on Cheng Yu, and still did not forget to defame Cheng Yu as analyses the situation. What he said is indeed reasonable. Cheng Yu is indeed the weak point that is most likely to be attacked, but now that Sun Ce is injured, how could he have the heart to attack Cheng Yu? Naturally, he should hurry back to the south side of the Gang and meet Zhu Jun. At that time, the military discussion will definitely have a dispute with Jiang Yu and Bang Jun, which will make him feel embarrassed. It is better to send Bang Jun away as soon as possible.

"Wenli is right. In this way, although Yuan Envoy defeated this battle is more tragic, it is of great significance. Wenli, you have outstanding literary talent. If you wrote this army, it would be another great article, and even Chen Kongzhang would be willing to give up the disadvantage."

While making a laugh, I looked at myself.

Liu Biao said again: "It's a pity that Wenli is not with Yuan Envoy, so Lu Wenmo must be given the lead."

While changing his face slightly, he bowed and said, "I am injured. I should go to visit you. Brother Jingsheng has a heavy responsibility and is not convenient to leave easily. Why don't you convey it to me?"

Liu Biao was right in his mind and wrote a cursive letter, asking Bian Rang to bring it to Yuan Tan. Bian Rang was worried that Lu Cui would take the lead, and took the good opportunity to make a fuss, and hurriedly left after he got the letter. Liu Biao then summoned the generals to discuss matters and conveyed the military newspaper of Yuan Tan. Of course, he would not mention Zhang Miao and Yuan Tan's separation, but he calmly reposted the words Bian Rang looked down on Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu changed his face at that time and cursed a few words in a low voice.

Despite this, Liu Biao reminded Cheng Yu to beware of Sun Ce's cooperation with the Black Mountain bandits in the city. When Liu Bei surrendered, Jiang Qi was killed, and Yuan Tan was seriously injured, the strength advantage of Yuan's army outside Junyi City was no longer obvious. If the Black Mountain bandits in the city were included, they were already at a disadvantage. Although Sun Ce was seriously injured, his soldiers suffered little losses and could still launch an attack and support the Black Mountain bandits out of the city. For this reason, he planned to transfer three thousand people to support Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu couldn't ask for it, so he rushed back to the camp immediately and adjusted his position.

Cao Ang didn't dare to neglect him. He was under little pressure these days because Sun Ce took away the elite, leaving only the 5,000 Yellow Turbans led by Gong Du. Now Sun Ce is back, and the pressure he faces has increased greatly. As soon as the meeting ended, he left in a hurry.

Zhu Ling confronted Zhu Ye in the south of the city and was unable to attend the meeting in person. Liu Biao sent someone to convey the content of the meeting to Zhu Ling. After receiving the news, Zhu Ling gave Liu Biao a suggestion: the most dangerous place was not Cheng Yu's army, but Daying in the north of the city. The terrain in the east of the city was narrow, which was not conducive to the deployment of troops. Sun Ce had a thousand personal guards, and the north of the city was most suitable for cavalry to charge. After the cavalry was taken away by Yuan Tan, the central army without cavalry would encounter a cavalry impact, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Liu Biao felt it was reasonable and hurriedly retreated the 3,000 people who were originally planning to support Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu returned to the camp and finally adjusted the position, but he had not waited for the reinforcements arranged by Liu Biao. He was uneasy and sent someone to the central army to ask. Only then did he realize that Zhu Ling had made a suggestion, and Liu Biao changed his mind. Cheng Yu was so angry that he sighed to the sky, too lazy to get Liu Biao to explain anymore. He quickly restored his position and prepared to deal with Sun Ce alone and prove his ability with his record.

After a round trip, a day has passed.

When Cheng Yu moved to the camp outside the city, Zhang Fang kept watching from the city. He had not received any news, but judging from the frequent actions of Yuan Jun outside the city, Sun Ce should be coming. Sun Ce once said that he would come to break the siege of Junyi in person. The agreed time has come and the battle is about to begin. He is both excited and nervous.

"Wulu, do you think Sun Haoni can arrive in time?"

Before Wulu could speak, Ku Chief took over the conversation. "Young Marshal, do you really treat him as Xinling Jun? Although this is Yimen, there are no Hou Ying and Zhu Hai, and there are no Xinling Jun. In my opinion, the people in the court are unreliable, and in the end we have to fight out ourselves."

Zhang Fang looked at the Ku Chief and smiled. "You Ku Chief, you have been in prison for too long. No one looks like a good person. I don't know anyone else, but I am sure that Sun is going to seek rebellion. Since he said that, he will definitely come. If you don't believe it, let's make a bet, what?"

"What are you betting on?"

"If Sun Qie comes and releases Junyi's siege and takes us out of the city, you will become my subordinate in the future. If he doesn't come, or he can't help but fail to rescue him, then I will become your subordinate in the army, what about?"

Ku Chief raised his palm. Seeing this, Zhang Fang also raised his palm and swears with Ku Chief. The clapping sound was still in his ears. Before Zhang Fang could put down his hand, a little coach hurried to the city and said panting: "Young Marshal, something big is not good. I heard that Sun Qieji fought with Yuan Tan in a fierce battle and was seriously injured."

Zhang Fang raised his eyebrows and snorted: "Nonsense, how could Sun Hao Ni be seriously injured? You must have heard it wrong."

Ku Ke looked at Zhang Fang proudly and laughed loudly. "Young Marshal, do you want to add more bets?"
