Chapter 737 Yue Fei’S Scruples!
Xia Cai County.
This place is located on the side of the Huai River. Since Liu Bian defeated Yuan Shao in Xiapi, Yue Fei chased him all the way and quickly occupied the north of the Huai River, naturally Xia Cai County was among them.
However, when Yue Fei was about to catch up, the Huai River rained heavily for half a month, and the water level was soaring, which made Yue Fei’s heart a bit cooler.
Every time he wasted a day, the more he could not explain in the future, but despite the heavy rain and water, he was really afraid of accidents and heavy losses.
Therefore, although Yue Fei was anxious and hoped to cross the Huai River as soon as possible and capture Shouchun, he still did not dare to send troops due to the weather.
In a flash, half a month passed, and a great victory came from Luoyang City, but he still had no merit on his side.
“General Yue, General Yue!!
The hurried announcement from outside the study room awakened Yue Fei, who was in deep thought.
“come in!!
The outsider heard the sound and walked straight into the study, it was Wang Lang and Cao Bao.
23 The two of them saluted Yue Fei and said, “General Yue, great news, great news!!”
“happy event?
Yue Fei pondered for a moment, and now he really can’t think of any happy event, could it be that there is good news from His Majesty’s side?
Thinking of this, his brows furrowed, and if so, he would be even more ashamed.
Wang Lang and Cao Bao did not see Yue Fei’s displeasure and continued: “General Xue Rengui is here!!”
“Yuwen Chengdu?”
Yue Fei’s face showed surprise, and then he fell into deep thought.
Xue Rengui is His Majesty’s most trusted general, and he is even worse than himself!
Right now, his own side has not achieved an inch, and Xue Rengui is here at this time. What does this mean? What does it prove?
Could it be that His Majesty wants to replace himself?
Thinking of this Yue Fei’s face was even more nervous, and there was no joy at all.
Wang Lang and Cao Bao also noticed that Yue Fei’s expression was not right.
Wang Lang said softly: “General Yue, what’s wrong with you? General Xue is here, don’t you…”
Yue Fei shook his head: “You two, do you know why Your Majesty sent General Xue Rengui here?”
“This matter in Xuzhou, since His Majesty defeated Yuan Shao, is only a matter of the aftermath, but we encountered heavy rain, and we have not achieved an inch, and now General Xue is here again! 35
“This is not good news for us. After this incident, how will Your Majesty entrust us with important tasks in the future?”
Yue Fei’s few words directly stunned Wang Lang and Cao Bao.
Both of them also showed the color of Chen Si, and for a moment Cao Bao said anxiously: “General, what should we do?”
“It’s all to blame for this damn heavy rain, otherwise, with Yuan Shao’s shrimp soldiers and crab generals, how could they be our opponents?”9
Yue Fei shook his head with a wry smile: “What else can I do?”
“Where is General Xue now?
“It’s only ten miles away from Xiacai County.
Yue Fei got up slowly: “No matter what, we should go and meet it. This matter is that we did not do well enough, and we can’t blame others. No matter what punishment your majesty has, I will accept it!”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Lang and Cao Bao could only sigh inwardly.
Yue Fei is much higher than their official position, and even he accepts his fate, so what can he do?
The three of them each walked out of the city gate with heavy hearts.
city gate.
The three of Yue Fei didn’t say a word, everyone was thinking about something.
Soon, some soldiers reported: General Xue Rengui is here!
Immediately after Yue Fei raised his head, he saw the banners and flags in the distance, dark clouds covering the sun, smoke billowing, and the earth trembled.
More than 10,000 cavalry soldiers approached slowly with neat steps.
On the front banner is the character Xue of Dou Da.
Yue Fei breathed a sigh of relief, what should come will always come, and there is no way to hide.
He got on his horse and greeted Xue Rengui’s army.
Wang Lang and Cao Bao sighed helplessly and hurriedly followed.
After walking for only one mile, he could see Xue Rengui’s army. Yue Fei waved his hand to let them report, but after a while, a middle-aged man in silver armor walked out of the team.
He had a Chinese character face, and his eyes were not angry and powerful. Although he didn’t say a word from beginning to end, he still put a lot of pressure on Wang Lang and Cao Bao.
Yue Fei was okay, he secretly praised in his heart, and greeted him and said: “General Xue is here, and if you miss a long way to welcome, I hope to forgive my sins, forgive my sins!!
Xue Rengui clenched his fists towards Yue Fei: “Where is it, General Yue is working hard here to suppress the thieves, I’m just traveling a long way, where’s the big driver!”
Yue Fei shook his head with a wry smile: “Due to the heavy rain, the water level of the Huai River has risen during this period of time, and it is impossible to cross the river at all. What hard work is there!”
“What will General Xue bring to His Majesty, Yue Fei will definitely obey!”
Xue Rengui was stunned for a while, he just exchanged a word, who would have thought that Yue Fei would be so lost.
This was something he didn’t think of, but then he pondered for a while, and then it became clear.
“General Yue really thinks too much!”
“Your Majesty asked me to come here not because you can’t trust the general, but because Liu Bei is occupying Chang’an. Your Majesty is afraid that Yuan Shao will die and cause trouble for you!”
“That’s why this arrangement is made!”
“The rest of His Majesty has no other meaning!”
“Um?”
A look of surprise appeared on Yue Fei’s face, but he did not expect that he had guessed completely wrong.
His face suddenly turned red and ashamed, and he felt more grateful to Liu Bian in his heart.
“but!!
Xue Rengui pondered for a moment, then continued: “Your Majesty gave us a military order before coming down! 95
“Take Shouchun within ten days, otherwise the two of us will never want to stay here!”
“Ten days?”
When Yue Fei heard this, not only was he not disappointed, but he smiled and said, “The weather has cleared up for the past two days, and it won’t take five days, we will definitely be able to take Shouchun City, why do we need ten days!
“Ha ha!
Hearty laughter resounded at the city gate. Seeing Yue Fei like this, Xue Rengui’s mouth also showed a smile. In his opinion, there should be no surprises in this mission…
