Zhao Yun succeeded in beheading Wen Chou, and Han Yu's army was victorious.
Han Yu saw Zhao Yun's triumph in the tower, smiled, and said to Guo Jia and Tian Feng beside him
"Fengxiao, Yuanhao. What do you think?"
Guo Jia calmly commented: "Brave and fearless cold-hearted general!"
Tian Feng also lightened his beard and said with a smile: "Congratulations, my lord, for having a well-known general in both literary and military affairs."
Han Yu laughed out loud when he heard this, and the surrounding soldiers who had been under siege for a long time also laughed, and then they became more energetic.
Dian Wei also burst into laughter!
Han Yu paused quickly.
"Hey, stop laughing."
After that, he led the generals and advisors to hold a banquet to celebrate Zhao Yun's victory.
Han Yu smiled, it looks like a few boxes of Maotai are needed today!
...
Wen Chou is dead!
Yuan Shao could not believe the fact that his most important pillar general died like this!
Then he fainted from anger and fell from his horse.
Wen Chou's death also added some confusion to Yuan Shao's already demoralized army.
After that, the Yuan army continued to intensify the construction of the earthen trenches and did not respond to Han Yu's calls for battle.
Yuan Shao's temper has also become fiercer, and the guards around him all feel that they are in danger.
Guo Tu died, and Pang Ji gradually became Yuan Shao's favorite.
As for Xu You, Yuan Shao did not call him for several days.
Pang Ji was also very afraid of Yuan Shao's sudden anger, so he kept slandering and distracting Yuan Shao's anger.
"Milord, I heard that Xu You frequently uses alcohol to drown his sorrows behind your back. After drinking, he often said that milord was wrong, and his dissatisfaction was quite obvious."
He said the same thing to Yuan Shao every three or five minutes.
Yuan Shao hated Xu You even more after listening to Pang Ji's words over and over again.
After hearing this today, Yuan Shao's expression became even more gloomy and fierce.
Seeing Yuan Shao's look, Pang Ji continued.
"None of the previous siege strategies worked, and this was all Xu You's idea."
Yuan Shao was even angrier when he heard this.
In fact, all the decisions come from Yuan Shao himself, but Yuan Shao is arrogant and doesn't want to hear good advice, but only stays angry at others.
As Pang Ji continued to talk, Yuan Shao's heart became colder, so he said to a guard.
"Go and bring Xu You here."
The guard did not dare to say anything and hurriedly left.
When they arrived at Xu You's tent, the guards did not arrest Xu You, but instead informed Xu You about the conversation between Yuan Shao and Feng Ji.
This guard saw with his own eyes that Yuan Shao beheaded his friend with a single sword over a trivial matter. He hated Yuan Shao very much, but he did not dare to express it.
At this time, Xu You was drinking wine to drown his sorrows because of Yuan Shao's willful exile, and with Xu You's wit, he had long known everything.
However, Xu You himself could not explain anything, let alone please Yuan Shao.
Moreover, Yuan Shao was gloomy, and Xu You also didn't dare to meet Yuan Shao, so he could only use alcohol to relieve his worries.
Hearing that Yuan Shao wanted to kill him, Xu You stood up in shock.
The slight intoxication quickly dissipated, then his anger spread and his heart was sad.
'Yuan Shao, I, Xu Ziyuan regard you as my master, and plan all your desires wholeheartedly, but you betrayed me and wanted to kill me instead. (Xu You's courtesy name)
If you don't value me as your subordinate, then don't blame me for being unrighteous!'
After that, Xu You called the guard over and whispered to him for a bit, and then the two left the camp while taking advantage of the moonlight.
The guards along the way saw Xu You, but they didn't stop him.
The two quickly left the camp and headed for the Zhongshan capital.
…
Within the Capital City of Zhongshan
It is getting late.
In the backyard of the government office.
Han Yu did not sleep, Guo Jia and Tian Feng did not sleep either, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei did not sleep either, not even Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Yu Jin did.
Did they get together to discuss how to solve the encirclement of the Yuan army?
Not for this time
At this time, Han Yu and Guo Jia are making a lantern, and this huge lantern is almost finished.
They are all so relaxed!
Seeing Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Zhang He, they sat around the table with two bottles of wine and several full wine glasses.
The two bottles of wine were sparkling, and under the moonlight, they looked crystal clear.
Looking closely, you can see that "Moutai" is written on the body of the bottle, while others have "Wuliangye" written on it.
Zhao Yun looked at the busy Han Yu and Guo Jia with a calm expression, and subconsciously tucked the glass of wine into his sleeve with his right hand.
Then he turned around quietly and quickly downed the glass of wine before he could cover his ears.
Then, he quickly placed the wine glass down on the table.
His face was still calm, without the slightest smile, but a hint of red appeared from behind his cheeks.
Dian Wei was still staring at Han Yu and Guo Jia fixedly.
Several generals behind him carried out the same behavior, and a certain general secretly did something.
His hand speed was faster than when fighting enemies on the battlefield.
Dian Wei stared at Han Yu for a while and didn't understand what kind of lantern Han Yu had set up, then he looked back at the table.
Then he was furious, and his huge voice rang in everyone's ears.
"Who is secretly drinking the wine on the table!"
Dian Wei furiously pointed at Zhao Yun.
"Is it you Zilong?"
Zhao Yun's expression did not change and said lightly.
"Come on, so many generals are here, how can you say it's me? And as you see, this wine cup is gone and I am right next to you, if that is the case, you should have seen it long ago!"
Dian Wei was taken aback for a moment, and then he turned his head to look at Zhang He.
"Junyi, was this your doing?"
Zhang He also explained it calmly, clearly meaning that he did not drink it.
Then a few others also agreed.
Dian Wei was furious and his face turned red.
He was getting ready to fight.
Currently, Han Yu and Guo Jia were also busy. Han Yu was watching everything that was going on at the wine table, and he knew who was drinking secretly.
Han Yu smiled to stop Dian Wei, then stood up and said
"Come on, don't be angry! This wine is poured for everyone to drink, and everyone is just joking with you."
The generals laughed when they heard the words.
A group of alcoholics, after drinking the Maotai brought by Han Yu at Zhao Yun's banquet, were shocked and then completely drunk.
So later, under the pretense of discussing the capital's siege, they went to Han Yu's house every three days to get drunk.
Of course, the generals attached great importance to their duties in the defense of the capital and dared not be careless.
They were grateful for Han Yu's trust, and they were willing to shed their blood for Han Yu.
Dian Wei is a fanboy and loyal follower of Han Yu. Hearing what Han Yu said, he no longer cared about the generals.
In fact, everyone else fought too, and in their long-term life as comrades-in-arms had made them trust each other, like brothers.
Han Yu tasted a glass of Wuliangye with a smile.
After a glass of wine, a fragrant and delicate taste fills the throat.
"It's delicious, very smooth!"
A blush appeared on Han Yu's face, and if Cai Yan and the other girls saw it, they would definitely look infatuated.
Guo Jia saw Han Yu tasting the wine, and his eyes became hotter, so he hurriedly tasted three cups.
Among Han Yu's advisors, Guo Jia was the heaviest drinker. If there is a good drink, it is estimated that he will not come out for three days.
If there is Wuliangye and Maotai, maybe he will continue to drink for the rest of his life.
Of course, this is all a joke.
Han Yu was overjoyed to see the advisers and generals around him becoming more unified invisibly.
At the same time, he also missed the peerless general Pan Feng, who was on standby somewhere with Ju Shou and the others in Changshan.
Then Han Yu pointed at the "lantern" and smiled at everyone.
"Do you know what kind of lantern Fengxiao and I made?"
The generals shook their heads.
"Its name is Kongming Lantern, back then..."
Han Yu smiled and explained the use of the Kongming Lantern to everyone.
At this time, a soldier carrying a report walked into the courtyard.
"Report."
"Milord, two people came from Yuan Shao's barracks outside the capital. The leader calls himself Xu You and requested to see my lord."
Han Yu and Guo Jia looked at each other, a bit surprised.
