Hearing this, Yuan Chonghuan smiled and said: "What Junshi Cui said is similar to what I thought, but if Yue Fei thinks so, then I will let him know that I, Yuan Chonghuan, am not that trash like Qu Yi."

Hearing Yuan Chonghuan's words, Cui Hao just laughed and said nothing. Yuan Chonghuan didn't have any good feelings for Qu Yi, the general of Jizhou who originally belonged to Han Fu's subordinate, but finally betrayed Han Fu and joined Yuan Shao's command. The contradiction is not small.Although Qu Yi is dead now, it seems that Yuan Chonghuan's view of Qu Yi has not changed at all.

Cui Hao did not intend to participate in such a matter. Although Qu Yi was dead, Qu Yi belonged to the original Jizhou people, and people with similar experiences to Qu Yi included Zhang He, Shen Pei and others.

Yuan Shao's civil and martial arts factions are numerous, and the generals are better. Although there is a little contradiction, it is not big.But on the side of civil servants and counselors, the struggle was extremely fierce.

During this struggle, the counselors under Yuan Shao's command also split into three factions, one was the Yingchuan faction headed by Xun Chen, Guo Tu, and Xin Ping, and the other was the Nanyang faction headed by Fengji, Xu You, and Su Fengji. The other is the Hebei faction headed by Na Tianfeng, Jushou and Shenpei.

Under Yuan Shao's command, the three major factions were fighting each other and trying to disrupt the situation.Although Cui Hao is from Jizhou, he was naturally assigned to the Jizhou faction by Xun Chen, Feng Ji and others, while Tian Feng and Shenpei.Jushou and others also regarded Cui Hao as their own.But Cui Hao rarely participated in these party struggles.

The servants under his command were divided into three major factions to fight endlessly, but Yuan Shao turned a blind eye to it and was happy to see the success.Take advantage of the fighting among the three major factions under his command to firmly control these three major factions in his own hands.

The Jizhou faction suffered heavy losses in the recent struggle between Yuan Shao and the other Nanyang and Yingchuan factions. Jushou was captured and Tian Feng was imprisoned.And Yuan Shao also saw this, so he appointed Cui Hao, who also belonged to the Jizhou faction, to serve as Yuan Chonghuan's military adviser just now, in order to strengthen the strength of the Jizhou faction and prevent the struggle between the three major factions under his command from being out of balance.

And although Cui Hao is not interested in such factional struggles, since he has become a member of the Jizhou faction, in the absence of Tian Feng and Ju Shou, Cui Hao can only stand up and judge. Fight shoulder to shoulder.

However, in troubled times, the army is a taboo for the princes of one side. Although Cui Hao has extraordinary talents, he has joined Yuan Shao's command for a short time and has not yet gained Yuan Shao's full trust. Therefore, Cui Hao does not intend to intervene in military matters.Because that would only cause Yuan Shao to misunderstand Cui Hao, which would be very detrimental to Cui Hao's future development under Yuan Shao.

At this time, Yuan Chonghuan also said: "Since this Yue Fei wants to fight us, how can my Jizhou soldiers be afraid of this Yue Fei? If you don't give him a little color, I think this Yue Fei already doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth." , I want him to know that even if he defeats Qu Yi, Jizhou is not a place where he can do whatever he wants."

After that, Yuan Chonghuan looked around at the generals in front of him and said, "I have already decided to accept Yue Fei's challenge. Do you have confidence in this battle?"

Zhang He, Han Meng and others all said loudly, "Yes."

"Okay!" Yuan Chonghuan laughed loudly, and then he called a soldier in and wrote a letter of challenge for the soldier to be sent to Yue Fei's camp. Yue Fei agreed on the time and place where the two armies would start. A big fight.

And when the soldiers left the tent of Yuan Shaojun, Yuan Chonghuan discussed the details of the next battle with everyone, and then asked the generals to go down and prepare.

Although Yuan Chonghuan looked down on Yue Fei somewhat, it didn't mean that Yuan Chonghuan would underestimate Yue Fei.Just like Yuan Chonghuan and Qu Yi are at odds, but Yuan Chonghuan is still sure of Qu Yi's ability.However, Qu Yi was defeated by Yue Fei when the strength of the two sides was not much different. It can be seen that Yue Fei still has some strength. Therefore, although Yuan Chonghuan looked down on Yue Fei on the surface, Yuan Chonghuan still did not dare to underestimate Yue Fei. watch.

When Cui Hao opened the curtain and walked out of the big tent, Guo Tu, who was behind Cui Hao, gave Cui Hao a look full of resentment in his eyes, but this Guo Tu concealed it very well, so Neither Cui Hao nor Yuan Chonghuan noticed the resentment in Guo Tu's eyes.

Guo Tu belonged to the Yingchuan faction. In the recent struggle, the Yingchuan faction and the Nanyang faction joined forces to solve the Jizhou faction's Tian Feng and Jushou. Under the cooperation, it was losing steadily.Originally, Guo Tu and others thought that this time they could knock down the Jizhou faction in one fell swoop.

But how did they know that after the fall of Tian Feng and Ju Shou, another Cui Hao came out of this Jizhou faction.With the intelligence of Guo Tu and others, it is not difficult to see that Cui Hao was proposed by Yuan Shao after he saw that the Jizhou faction was constantly retreating in this series of struggles to check and balance the development of the Nanyang faction and the Yingchuan faction.

Yuan Shao also didn't want to have only the Nanyang faction and the Yingchuan faction left under his command. Seeing that the Jizhou faction was about to be beaten to nothingness, Yuan Shao naturally wanted to take action.After all, Yuan Shao's current base camp is in Jizhou. Although Qingzhou has been taken down by Zhao Kuangyin, Qingzhou is new to Yuan Shao's command and its foundation is not stable. Therefore, Yuan Shu's short-term development focus is still in Jizhou.

And to govern Jizhou, Jizhou local talents are also indispensable. Only by governing Jizhou with Jizhou people can we win the hearts of Jizhou people in the shortest time.Although after so many years, Jizhou has already been governed by Yuan Shao in an orderly manner, but Yuan Shao does not want to do anything to the Jizhou faction.

Therefore, when the Jizhou faction was suppressed by the Nanyang faction and the Yingchuan faction, Yuan Shao would select Cui Hao from the Jizhou faction to stop the actions of the Nanyang faction and the Yingchuan faction.

After Cui Hao was selected by Yuan Shao, his performance was very impressive. After being appointed by Yuan Shao as Yuan Chonghuan's left and right military advisers together with Guo Tu, Cui Hao basically overshadowed Guo Tu's limelight.

During the journey from Yecheng to Qinghe, Guo Tuna provoked Cui Hao in various ways and jumped in front of Cui Hao's eyes in order to suppress Cui Hao and not give the Jizhou faction A slight chance to make a comeback under Yuan Shao's command.

But although Guo Tu is not bad, he can be regarded as a second-rate level in the whole history, but compared with Cui Hao, a super-level strategist, Guo Tu is not enough at all.During this period of time, Guo Tu was beaten to pieces by Cui Hao in the struggle with Cui Hao, and he basically never won.

Although Yuan Chonghuan has some understanding of the factional struggles under Yuan Shao's command, his understanding is not thorough enough.And for Yuan Chonghuan, which faction is not important, what matters is who has the ability to help Yuan Chonghuan win the battle, and Yuan Chonghuan values ​​whoever is.

Therefore, although Yuan Chonghuan has always been keenly aware of the battle between Guo Tu and Cui Hao, he has been watching coldly.It wasn't until Guo Tu was defeated by Cui Hao that Yuan Chonghuan stood up and stopped the fight between the two.

During this period, Yuan Chonghuan naturally saw that Cui Hao's ability far surpassed that of Guo Tu, and after seeing this clearly, Yuan Chonghuan naturally valued Cui Haona very much.

As for Guo Tu, he was naturally put aside by Yuan Chonghuan. Although Yuan Chonghuan respected Guo Tu, Guo Tu already clearly felt that Yuan Chonghuan didn't value him.And the culprit of all this is undoubtedly Cui Hao, so Guo Tu is extremely resentful towards Cui Hao.

Chapter 278 Zhu Wu Formation

Three days later, on a flat ground between the camp of Yue Fei's army and the camp of Yuan Chonghuan's army, two armies confronted each other. One of the armies raised a large white flag with the word "Gongsun" written on it. All the officers and men in the army carried white scarves on their heads.The other army raised a black flag with the word "Yuan" written on it.

These two armies are exactly the two armies led by Yue Fei and Yuan Chonghuan. Among them, Yue Fei brought 3 people this time, and Yuan Chonghuan also brought nearly 5 people.

The two sides had discussed and decided to fight today a few days ago, and the two sides came here today and started to confront each other.

Yue Fei saw the young general on the opposite side of the "Yuan" banner. Although Yue Fei had never seen Yuan Chonghuan before, he recognized Yuan Chonghuan after meeting him today.

After watching Yuan Chonghuan command Yue Fei for a while, he looked at Zhu Wu beside him. Zhu Wu felt Yue Fei's gaze. It is to dismount and walk on the high platform that Yue Fei has already ordered people to build.

When Zhu Wu stepped onto the high platform, he kept waving the two command flags in his hands, and as Zhu Wu continued to wave the command flags, the positions of the [-] Gongsun soldiers kept changing. The change of position among the [-] Gongsun soldiers is also faster and faster.

While Zhu Wu was setting up the formation, Yuan Chonghuan, who was under the banner of Yuan Zi on the opposite side, also frowned and looked at Zhu Wu who was commanding the soldiers of the Gongsun Army to set up the formation on the high platform.

And a quarter of an hour later, Zhu Wu put the pair of flags in his hands on the high platform, and signaled to Yue Fei who was beside the high platform.

But after Yue Fei received Zhu Wu's gaze signal, he urged to sit down on the horse, holding the Liquan Spear tightly in his right hand, and the Tianpeng Armor he was wearing was extremely eye-catching.As soon as Yue Fei came out of the formation, he attracted the eyes of Yuan Chonghuan and others from the large formation that Zhu Wu had just set up.

During this time, Yue Fei jumped up on his horse and said loudly to Yuan Chonghuan and others: "Yuan Chonghuan, I am Yue Fei, the captain of Youzhou Xiaoqi General. I know that you are a famous general in Jizhou. You are very popular under Yuan Shao. Today I am here If you put it down for a while, you dare to break it."

Facing Yue Fei's provocation, Yuan Chonghuan was not angry, but looked at Cui Hao who was on the side. After Cui Hao nodded slightly to Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Chonghuan said to Yue Fei in front of the two armies: "Why don't you dare, you This remote place in Youzhou actually dares to play with formations in front of me, today we will see how I break your rotten formation."

Facing Yuan Chonghuan's cynicism, Yue Fei didn't take it seriously, and after confirming Yuan Chonghuan's reaction, he returned to the big formation that Zhu Wu had set up.

Yue Fei is full of confidence in Zhu Wu's formation. Under Gongsun Xu's command in Youzhou, Zhu Wu is not the most intelligent, but when it comes to formations, Zhu Wu is definitely the strongest under Gongsun Xu's command. one.For the rest, even Pei Sui, Di Qing and others were inferior to Zhu Wu in terms of formation.

And as Zhu Wu set up this large formation, a light curtain quietly appeared in a world far away in the mind of Gongsun Xu in Jixian County, Youzhou at this time, and a line of data also appeared on the light curtain. .

"Zhu Wu's basic intelligence is 88, the skill array is activated, intelligence +5, and Zhu Wu's current intelligence is 93."

When Yue Fei retreated into the formation, Yuan Chonghuan turned his attention to Cui Hao and said, "I don't know if Cui Junshi knows this formation? Although Yuan said that he has a little research on the formation, he doesn't know what Yue Fei is doing." What formation is it?"

Cui Hao said with a smile: "This formation is a five-element formation. The soldiers and horses are divided into five teams, which respond to each other. If ordinary soldiers and horses enter this five-element formation, they will be attacked by the soldiers and horses from the five directions. It is basically a one-man fight The top five will naturally retreat in defeat."

After hearing Cui Hao's words, Yuan Chonghuan's complexion was not very good-looking. At first, Yuan Chonghuan thought that the big formation Yue Fei set up was just a mystery and nothing powerful, but he didn't expect this formation to have such power.

Thinking of this, Yuan Chonghuan couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect Yue Fei to have such attainments in formation."

Cui Hao said at this time: "General Yuan is wrong. This formation was not set up by Yue Fei. Although Yue Fei is extraordinary, if this formation is not highly accomplished in the formation, it is absolutely impossible to deploy it like this." It is a large formation, so this formation method should not be laid by Yue Fei, and the clothes of the people who set up the formation on the high platform just now are also different from Yue Fei's. The person who set up the formation should be someone else."

Yuan Chonghuan said: "I didn't expect Yue Fei to have such talents under his command. I wonder if Junshi Cui knows who the people who set up the formation are?"

Cui Haodao: "Hao once heard that there is a man named Zhu Wu under Gongsun Xu who is good at formations and often uses formations to fight against the enemy. This person should be Zhu Wu. It's just that Zhu Wu has been stationed in Youzhou to guard against the north. Jiang Xianbei, Karasuma and other tribes, did not expect that Gongsun Xu would actually send Zhu Wu here."

After hearing Cui Hao's words, Yuan Chonghuan also became a little wary of Zhu Wu who set up this large formation, and this large formation was so extraordinary that Yuan Chonghuan hadn't found a way to break the formation until now.But when Yuan Chonghuan saw the smile on Cui Hao's face, he was overjoyed, and asked Cui Hao: "Since Junshi Cui knows this formation, is there a way to break it?"

Cui Hao said with a smile: "Although this five-element formation is extraordinary, as long as General Yuan sends five soldiers and horses to enter from the five gates of the formation, and then turn around when they reach the center of the formation, the formation will be broken. "

Yuan Chonghuan smiled and said: "Okay, I will follow the advice of the military division."

Then Yuan Chonghuan named five generals and asked them to take a straight soldier to the five gates of the five-element formation to prepare to break the formation.And among these five people was Han Meng.

After hearing Yuan Chonghuan's order, Han Meng and other five Yuan Jun generals each led 2000 people to kill in front of the five-element formation set up by Zhu Wu, and each led their troops outside the five gates of the formation.After all the five soldiers and horses are in place, they will enter the big formation.

In the big formation, Yue Fei saw that Han Meng and other five Yuan Jun generals led the troops outside the big formation, and it seemed that they were going to enter through the five gates of the five-element formation at the same time.

At this time, Yue Fei's heart skipped a beat. Before Zhu Wu set up the Five Elements Formation, he explained the characteristics of the formation and the method of breaking it to Yue Fei, and Han Meng and the others seemed to have found the way to break it. Array method.

Thinking of this, although Yue Fei said that his expression didn't change much, he still turned his gaze to Zhu Wu, and Zhu Wu seemed to know what Yue Fei was thinking, smiled slightly, and said to Yue Fei: "Don't worry, General Yue, there is more than one change in this five-element formation. Well, if they think that they can break through the Five Elements Formation in this way, then I will definitely make them suffer a big loss. Besides, Xiaowei Luo calculates that the time should be coming soon."
