Chapter 177 Lure the enemy

Jibei County, Linyi City.

Although the weather is cold on the school ground outside the city, it is very lively.

Hundreds of teenagers were split into two teams, holding shields, wooden sticks and other "weapons" to practice marching, retreating, attacking and defense on the battlefield.

Although they are all half-aged children, they are all carried out in a very good manner under the command of the military orders and drums next to them.

Liu Yu stood on the high platform next to him, looking at the "young soldiers" below, and couldn't help but show a happy expression.

Liu Yu couldn't help but think.

"Compared with those adults, the mind and character of these teenagers is a blank piece of paper. The education of these battle formations is significantly higher than that of adults. After only ten days of training, these teenage soldiers have reached the effect of training for ordinary refugees for more than half a month."

These young soldiers were all the teenagers brought from the Guangping Qihuo Army. After primary selection, some of them with average physical fitness were sent to Linzi, where there were already special schools to teach them something that Liu Yu wanted them to learn.

Among them, the boy with excellent physique was personally brought by Liu Yu and formed a young army of teeth, where Liu Yu personally taught knowledge and trained military affairs.

Liu expected that after a few years of growing up, after a few years of time and night, he would become the elite guards who were most loyal to him. At that time, it would even affect the choices and positions of the fathers of these young men.

During the military exercise off the field, as the army formation of a group of young soldiers was dispersed and disrupted, the referee next to him immediately signaled Jin and made a judgment that one side would lose.

Then, one side cheered for victory, while the other side was defeated, but was not dejected. Instead, they looked unwilling and shouted that they would start again immediately.

Seeing these young men having such abundant martial ethics at such young age, Liu Yu was also full of joy.

If it weren't for the cost and time of training these young soldiers, Liu Yu would even want to form and train a large-scale "young soldiers".

Just as Liu Yu wanted to go down and encourage him, a guard rushed to Liu Yu.

"General, someone from Lu Zicheng just now said that Yuan Fu had sent him there."

"Well, there was nothing wrong on the way, right?" Liu Yu was a little worried.

"No, Yuan Fu always came to Jibei County and thought he was rescued."

The guard's answer satisfied Liu Yu very much.

Of course, this Yuan Fu was captured from Juancheng to Qingzhou, the governor of Yanzhou, Yuan Fu.

When this governor Yuan was captured at the beginning, he was always listless and sluggish, and looked as if he was ashamed.

But after being taken to Linzi, he found that the Qingzhou army had no intention of killing him.

After all, Yuan Fu has a very good face. Even his old father-in-law, Wang Jun, the governor of Youzhou, sent people to visit him, and hoped that Liu Yu would not harm him.

Wang Jun from Youzhou is a super powerful faction who can control the overall situation of the world, so Liu Yu gave Wang Jun this face.

However, it is impossible to send Yuan Fu back as Sima Yue said, as that would be too disgusting for his ambition, so he ordered people to put Yuan Fu in house arrest, which was delicious and delicious.

After learning that his life was in danger, Yuan Fu immediately felt like he had become a different person. Not only did he eat, drink, and his health was great, but he even had the strength to make a fuss about being unwilling to be humiliated every few days and want to die for his country.

At the beginning, these loyal ministers who were seeking death made the Qingzhou soldiers who were guarding him panic and persuaded and appeased him.

However, as the number of times of seeking death and seeking death was too frequent, the Qingzhou soldiers who were guarding the custody also discovered the clues. The governor Yuan threw himself into the lake and hanged him, etc., usually in the sunny day, and never in the wind and cold weather. He also had to recite a parallel poem and essay for a while, and waited until the dozen or so guards were all in the next step.

Liu Yu is also a little difficult to deal with for such people who are both eating and drinking and acting with shamelessness.

However, Liu Yu had the most appropriate arrangement.

This governor Yuan finally had the opportunity to "use waste".

The more than 30,000 troops of Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun have been stationed in Gaoping, Yanzhou. They are unwilling to retreat or come to send their heads, which really makes Liu Yu feel uncomfortable.

After all, these more than 30,000 Xuzhou soldiers were only two hundred miles away from Jibei County where the Qihuo Army was placed. How could Liu Yu feel at ease?

Therefore, Liu Yu and Dong Ping discussed countermeasures, asking Dong Ping to surrender with the two counties of Jibei and Jinan to lure Pei Dun, the governor of Xuzhou, to go north to support him. If he suddenly attacked, he could basically deal with these Xuzhou soldiers.

However, after receiving Dong Ping's response, although Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun and Chief Sima Ao were confused by Dong Ping's acting, there were no key objects that were very rare to take action to prove Dong Ping's sincerity.

Regarding this, Liu Yu immediately thought of this "Guius Yuan" who was making trouble every day.

At the same time, Jibei County and Luzicheng.

In a heavily guarded government office in the city, a team of capable soldiers escorted a dusty old man in his fifties into the inner courtyard.

From the cold outdoors, enter the warm house.

When Dong Ping, who had been anxious when he saw Yuan Fu coming in, immediately rushed to him and saluted with a pious and respectful look on his face.

"Mr. Yuan, I suffered along the way!" Dong Ping said, blinking his eyes twice, but unfortunately, he didn't even have a tear flashed out.

As soon as Yuan Fu entered the house, a big black-faced man suddenly rushed to him, almost scaring him to jump up.

However, after hearing the words of this black-faced man, Yuan Fu knew that this should be Dong Ping, the "righteous man" who sent someone to rescue him.

"You are Dong Ping, you are indeed a righteous man. It would be a pity if you don't serve the court." Yuan Fu immediately reached out and helped Dong Ping up.

Yuan Fu sighed in his heart, it was indeed a tiger general. Look, these two armies are thick and hard, and they are absolutely brave and talented.

Moreover, he was a "returning prodigal son" who was lost and turned to the light. Look, his eyes were actually red. He Yuan Fu had already seen the repentance in these eyes.

Afterwards, Dong Ping complained to Yuan Fu, denounced Liu Yu's accusations, from the corruption in the military and government management, to the slept with several singers and widows, all scolded Liu Yu. Finally, Dong Ping expressed painily that he was young and ignorant before, and was deceived by Liu Yu, the rioter, so that he fought against the court and offended Yuan Gong's reputation. Now he finally repented. He only asked Yuan Gong to accept himself for his efforts to rescue him, for the sake of his dedication to rescue him. He Dong Ping did not ask for any senior executive and title, but only asked him to give him a prefecture and county official.

After hearing this, Yuan Fu guessed from Dong Ping's words that the real reason should be that a large number of Hebei refugees joined the Qingzhou army. The old subordinates who were too famous and threatened Liu Yu's status have been included in the list of Liu Yu's cleaning or removal, so Dong Ping dared to take risks and rebel, oh no, it's true.

Thinking of this, Yuan Fu completely believed it, and then encouraged Dong Ping and promised that by then, he would definitely win a county magistrate for Dong Ping. If he could make another contribution, it might not be impossible even if he was awarded a title.

Dong Ping was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly said that he would send someone to escort Yuan Fu away to Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun in Gaoping's military camp.

Before leaving, Dong Ping expressed his hope that Yuan Fu would persuade Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun to go north to pick him up as soon as possible. After all, he had only a few thousand soldiers under him. If he had to settle the city, the Qingzhou soldiers who were farming around might not have been able to attack him. If that were the case, he planned to devote all of them to Jinan, the more than ten cities in the two counties of Jibei would be at risk of gain and loss.

Yuan Fu, who had just climbed onto the horse, patted his chest and said.

"I am Pei Dun's uncle. As long as I speak, no matter what kind of governor he is, I have to listen to me. Dong Ping, a talent who is worried about the court, must not let you down."

Under the escorts of several Dong Ping's confidants, Yuan Fu was about to set off.

Suddenly, Yuan Fu, who had already turned his head and was about to set off, slowly rode his horse and let Dong Ping come to him and said earnestly.

"Zijun, I know it's difficult and try my best to do it. I have a granddaughter. When this matter is successful, I will let you be the son-in-law of Yuan's family in Chen County."

After saying that, Yuan Fu's expressions were full of writing. How about it? I respect you so much, boy, just do it well.

"The last general must do his best to defend the city and wait for Duke Yuan to lead the imperial army to come."

Dong Ping looked moved, and after saying that, he cursed in his heart, "I still lack your granddaughter, but I'm not going to be the same if I blow the light."

When Yuan Fu and his party rode their horses and ran wildly, experiencing the wind and frost all the way. When they arrived at Jinshan, Gaoping, Yanzhou, Yuan Fu felt that his old bones would fall apart. If he hadn't been in prison in Linzi, he would have tasted delicious food and drinks, and often climbed up and down to exercise, he might not have been able to last for so long.

When Pei Dun, the governor of Xuzhou, stationed at the foot of Jinshan, received a report from the chief Sima Ao, saying that the rebel general Dong Ping of Qingzhou sent someone to send Yuan Fu, the governor of Yanzhou, who had been captured by him, Pei Dun looked surprised.

When he saw Yuan Fu, Pei Dun looked surprised and disbelief.

"Why, I'm alive, are you unhappy?" Yuan Fu felt unhappy when he saw Pei Dun's expression change, and he always felt that Pei Dun seemed to be whispering the embarrassing thing about losing his opponent.

Pei Dun has always respected Yuan Fu very much for the two families who have been friends with each other for many years. At this time, when he heard Yuan Fu's dissatisfaction, he quickly expressed his fear of not being able to do so.

Afterwards, Yuan Fu told Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun about the surrender of Dong Ping as to the two counties of Jinan and Jibei.

He also told Pei Dun that Dong Ping's military strength was limited. If he could not go north to take over the city in time, and when the Qingzhou army reacted, he might end up in vain.

After hearing this, Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun was still hesitant. He always felt that even if there were no loopholes in this matter, the army would still go deeper. If there was any change, it would be very dangerous. So in Pei Dun's heart, he would rather be rewarded for such things than take risks.

After all, the other troops of the Yangzhou Governor Wang Dun had been dispersed, and he returned in vain, which was much stronger than Wang Dun who lost his army. In this way, his brother-in-law, Sima Yue, should not blame himself, or would only blame himself gently.

Seeing Pei Dun like this, Yuan Fu and Sima Ao immediately urged Pei Dun to order troops to go north.

Yuan Fu felt a shame in his heart, and he was almost 100% sure of success in this matter.

In his heart, Sima Ao, the governor of Xuzhou, was indeed thinking that he had finally persuaded Pei Dun, the governor of Xuzhou, to recruit more than 30,000 soldiers from good families. If he returned so incompetently, how would his colleagues and clans in the prefectures and counties view him? Wouldn't that be too embarrassing? Moreover, this time, Dong Ping, the rebel of Qingzhou Army, could surrender the two counties, basically a profitable deal. At that time, if he had the credit for regaining the two counties, wouldn't Sima Ao have great future?

Finally, with the persuasion of the two, Pei Dun, the governor of Xuzhou, who had never had any opinion, issued an order to go north to capture Jibei County.

After the order was issued, more than 30,000 Xuzhou soldiers who had been basking in Gaoping, Yanzhou for more than a month finally left the Jinshan Camp, which was about to be sold out.

The Xuzhou army, with more than 30,000 people, rushed along the avenue between Jinshan and Daze, towards Jibei County to the north.

Jibei County, Linyi.

When Liu Yu learned that more than 30,000 soldiers and horses of Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun finally began to head north, the 3,000 Qingzhou soldiers under his command had already completed sufficient rest and preparations.

Under Dong Ping's repeated inducement and deception, Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun finally accelerated his advance under the urging of Sima Ao and Yuan Fu.

When they entered Jibei County, Dong Ping, who sent someone, told them that Dong Ping was ready to raise the banner anyway. As long as the imperial army entered Guting, he would lead all the troops out of the city and come to pay homage to the two envoys. Then, under the leadership of the two envoys, handed over all the cities of Jibei County to the official army, and Dong Ping himself led the official army to sweep the Qingzhou army scattered around Jibei County.

After entering Jibei County, Pei Dun and Yuan Fu and his party, they indeed met many soldiers scattered in the Qingzhou army's military farms scattered in various places to surrender. By the time they were about to arrive at Guting, there were hundreds of Qingzhou bandits who had already surrendered to the official army.

In this way, Pei Dun, Yuan Fu and others believed in the fall of the Qingzhou army, and had no doubts about Dong Ping's surrender and return to justice.

In this way, more than 30,000 Xuzhou soldiers advanced rapidly after seven or eight days, and finally accelerated their formation and arrived at the Gu Pavilion that they had agreed with Dong Ping.

However, I just arrived at Guting ei.

Xuzhou Governor Pei Dun and Yuan Fu were surprised to find that the army that had been waiting for them to come to Dong Ping was gone.

There is only one that comes to my eyes, that is, the banner of the Yamen Army of the Qingzhou thief Liu Yu, and the military formation arrangement with murderous intent.

For a moment, unexpectedly, the entire Xuzhou army was filled with horror.

More than 30,000 good sons from Xuzhou left their hometown and slept in the open. They thought this time was a marching, and then returned to the army successfully. No one expected that the surrendered marches that Shangguan said turned out to be like this!

If the battalion generals and officers hadn't had their swords that were too sharp, these 30,000 people would have scattered and fled immediately.
