Hahaha!

In front of the Allied camp, two hundred steps away from the front gate.

An extremely comfortable and unrestrained laughter raged in front of the gate, overturning the slowly falling morning mist, so that the airflow in the air seemed to become active.

However, this kind of active airflow is not a light flow, but an indescribable chill.

Under the cold air, thousands of soldiers standing in front of the gate felt a chill on their spine. Then they shivered, their lips stiff and purple, and their faces turned pale.

This is because among the nearly 10,000 people in front of the gate, only one was laughing, while the others were so scared that their faces were pale and trembled involuntarily. Even the war horses under the cavalry were frightened and ignored them at all, and instinctively retreated towards the gate.

It goes without saying that this person who laughed wildly was the leader of the previous vassal army, Yuan Shao, Yuan Benchu, who had already succeeded in the conspiracy at this moment.

The reason why he was the leader of the princes before was because after his plan became a reality, the allies would no longer exist. If there were no alliances of the princes, how could the leader come about?

"Li Li, Li Li, I didn't expect that you, a evil thief, will have today! Although you were the number one overlord in the world, even though you held hundreds of thousands of Western Liang cavalry, held the cow ears of the world, and slapped Fang Zun, and were domineering the world; but all this will end as you fell into the pit. The once arrogant Western Liang overlord is now in the Huangquan with the Western Liang cavalry under your command, and is buried in a cave with war horses and animals. There is no place to bury him. Hahaha???????"

In front of the gate of Lema, facing the cold wind that was wrapped in the morning dew. His eyes were staring at the collapsed pit, Yuan Shao was so excited that he laughed wildly. In the laughter, there seemed to be a sense of evil spirit blocking his chest and not vomiting. So he shouted loudly while laughing wildly. The silence-tested screams were mixed with the crazy laughter, which made people frightened and creepy, and only felt a gloomy aura aroused. The nearly ten thousand Yuan soldiers present were chilling and trembling.

However, Yuan Shao had no idea of ​​the abnormal expressions of the soldiers behind him and was not careful at all. Perhaps, he had no time to take care of the soldiers in Jizhou behind him, and he had no intention of paying attention to what they would react after seeing such a grand act in front of him.

At this moment, when he saw with his own eyes that he had planned for a long time, he became a reality and showed his unparalleled lethality, Yuan Shao's blood was boiling and his heart was surging. The only thought in his mind was to laugh freely. It seemed that only in this way could he vent all the melancholy and resentment that had been accumulated in his heart, and wipe out the decadent aura that had been in half a year. He was as refreshed and energetic as if he had been reborn.

But he didn't know that he thought he was laughing happily, but unexpectedly, the laughter came into the ears of the soldiers behind him, and it was so crazy, so unbridled, so gloomy, so terrifying; creepy and chilling.

At this moment, Yuan Shao was indeed extremely excited and excited. He swept away the haze and evil spirits hidden deep in his heart for a year. He could be said to be proud and reappearing his might.

Looking back on the humiliation he had experienced in the past year: the Zhen family, the largest merchant family in Jizhou, migrated to Chang'an. The beautiful girl who heads the Zhen family should have been the beauty under his crotch, but was taken away by someone, and she was pulled out of her teeth, and then became a concubine on someone else's bed. At the same time, the second son Yuan Xi was tortured. Although he survived by luck, he fled back to Yecheng like a dog with a broken family. If these were not enough to shame him, then the grand career that could have dominated the Central Plains was forced to throw herself into a rat because the Western Liang army was lying on the side, and they curled up in Jizhou and did not dare to act rashly and retreat. This was a great humiliation that he could not tolerate in any case.

The setbacks encountered in the last year were the greatest shame that Yuan Shao had experienced in most of his life, so that the Yuan clan, who was most proud of his four generations and three dukes, was criticized and shamed his family. All of this was thanks to Li Li.

It was precisely because of the unprecedented severe setback that Yuan Shao was able to clearly realize the huge threat from Li Li and his Xiliang army to him. If Li Li was allowed to occupy Xiliang and allow the Xiliang army to grow and grow, then Yuan Shao would never dominate the Central Plains in his life, let alone compete for the country. Even as long as the Xiliang army is immortal, he would not even be able to deal with Youzhou Gongsun Zan. Because, according to detailed investigations, Gongsun Zan had already been in a relationship with Li Li, secretly forming an alliance, echoing the east and west sides, and supporting each other, forming a siege against the prefectures and counties in Hebei.

Therefore, in Yuan Shao's eyes, Li Li of Xiliang was the culprit that hindered his great achievements. Therefore, if Li Li was not eliminated and the Xiliang army was not destroyed, the great hegemony he pursued throughout his life was a castle in the air, purely a fantasy and extravagant hope, and it would never be realized.

However, at this moment, with the loud roar of the sky and the earth, Li Li, a life-long enemy in Xiliang, will surely sink into the ground with the collapsed soil, completely disappear, and be removed from the world from then on. The day of the destruction of Li Li and the Xiliang army is the time for Yuan Shao's strong rise. From then on, Yuan Shao will become the strongest overlord in the world, and dominating the Central Plains is just around the corner, and it is not far away to win the country!

"Hahaha??????"

The ears were filled with Yuan Shao's sharp and abusive laughter. Xu You shrank his neck and trembled all over. But after a long time of patience, he found that Yuan Shao had not stopped to breathe a sigh of relief, which made him worried that his lord was overjoyed and suffered from madness.

"Lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, um!"

Xu You, who was thinking randomly, couldn't help but interrupt, but was suddenly glared at Yuan Shao by Yuan Shao, who suddenly turned around, causing him to swallow his words back when he was talking to him, so he choked and rolled his eyes. It was so uncomfortable.

However, Xu You interrupted it with some effect, which made Yuan Shao gradually restrain his laughter, and then he said in a very displeasure: "What's wrong with you?"

"Uh! I'm not intentionally disturbing the lord's mood, but, it's just that the great sorrow and joy are the most harmful to the body, so... " Xu You stammered for a long time but couldn't explain why, so his face turned red, afraid of attracting Yuan Shao's reprimand.

"I was hesitant and said nothing, just come and go!" Seeing Xu You's embarrassment with a red face, most of the anger on Yuan Shao's face suddenly dissipated. He seemed to be in a good mood and did not take his anger on Xu You.

After seeing Yuan Shao not getting angry from the corner of his eyes, Xu You couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then he looked up at Yuan Shao's face, turned his head to look at the rumbling sound in the darkness in front of him, and said softly: "The pit killing formation has been fully activated. The large wasteland in front of us will sink two feet, forming an unprecedented huge pit. But??? I am far from the battlefield and I don't know whether Li Zhe and Xiliang war cavalry have fallen into the pit. It's a bit too early to celebrate at this moment."

Speaking of this, Xu You couldn't help but look up at Yuan Shao's expression. Seeing that his expression was exactly the same, he continued: "This is just an aspect of his concern. In addition, he is even more worried about whether such a huge trap will affect our princes' army. I wonder how our allies were injured or killed in the collapse of the pit?"

"Huh?" After hearing this, Yuan Shao pondered in surprise, then frowned, his face became gloomy and gloomy, and his eyes flashed and fluttered.

"What exactly does Ziyuan want to say? There are no outsiders here, so Ziyuan doesn't have to be too much. It's okay to speak out in a blunt way."

"Thank you for your forgiveness." Xu You's expression moved and his mind was tense. After taking a deep breath, he said respectfully: "From the current situation, the Xiliang army trying to seize the flag of our army must have been wiped out. Because the torches there have been all been extinguished at this moment, it must be caused by the enemy's fall into the pit. However, we are not sure that Li thieves are among them. At least we did not see Li thieves appear with our own eyes when we evacuated the battlefield. Therefore, the enemy who suspected that the trap was probably the Heishan army under the tent of the rebel Zhang Yan and the more than 10,000 soldiers who could not escape from our army. At the same time, the Allied soldiers and Xiliang war cavalry who retreated to the back of the main battlefield should be the Allied soldiers and Xiliang war cavalry who retreated to the backyard on the main battlefield.

The thing that subordinates are most worried about is the Allied soldiers who retreated to the back formation. You should know that the Allied troops on the main battlefield were mainly the troops of Lu Bu and Liu Bei, while the 20,000 troops of the main troops and Zhang Yang, and Sun Ce and more than 30,000 troops were sent by the lord to the left-wing battlefield by the lord. Therefore, once the retreating Allied troops fell into a trap, it means that most of these troops were the troops of Lu Bu and Liu Bei. In this way, if the Allied troops suffered heavy casualties, it would be equivalent to the lord, Lu Bu and Liu Bei forming a great hatred. How could they give up with us?

It should be noted that Lu Bu and Liu Bei are the strong princes who are second only to the lord among all the troops in the Allied Army. Lu Bu seized Yanzhou from Cao Cao, while Liu Bei won all the six counties of Xuzhou without any blood. These two are strong princes, with about 100,000 troops in their hands, so they should not be underestimated. However, in a pit, the lord invisibly made enemies with these two. Moreover, Yanzhou and Xuzhou are both adjacent to our Jizhou and very close. In this way, there are two hostile forces around us, which will inevitably be extremely unfavorable to the subsequent development of our Jizhou. Whether we capture Qingzhou or Youzhou, we must always be wary of Lu Bu and Liu Bei taking the opportunity to attack. It can be said that they are hindering everywhere and always restraining our army from acting rashly.

If everything is as my subordinates say, then my Jizhou situation will be extremely passive, almost completely surrounded by thieves. In the northeast is Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, Liu Bei of Xuzhou to the southeast, Lu Bu of Yanzhou to the south, and Bingzhou and Sili to the west are still under Li Li’s Xiliang army’s front."

When declaring his interests, Xu You seemed worried and had no time to take care of Yuan Shao's face. After a moment of pause, he sighed with concern: "It is actually not terrible to be surrounded by powerful enemies. After all, as long as we are strong enough, even if we make enemies with all the princes in the world, we will not be afraid. However, what is most worried about now is that our army suffered too much casualties in this battle, and all 100,000 troops participated in the decisive battle. However, the only soldiers who survived at this moment were me, and the infantry and cavalry were less than 10,000. Although there were tens of thousands of troops in the camp and Feiyundu and Hedong counties, our army's most elite 100,000 troops were killed in this battle, and many generals died on the battlefield. Isn't it not easy to get a general, and the elite troops who have experienced many battles are becoming more and more precious!

Therefore, even if we win this battle, our future situation will not be optimistic. If we lose, the situation will be gone!”

"Enough! After the aftermath is over, we will discuss it after the war. You will stay here to pick up Yuan Hao and will not discuss the war!" In the midst of a stern shout, Yuan Shao beat the horse back to the camp and left with a gloomy face.
