Wen Chou led an army to meet Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shu knew that he couldn't help Yuan Shao, so he had to withdraw his troops. Yuan Shao ordered to camp and rest, and as for Yuan Shu's matter, he naturally would not give up on it.

The next day, Yuan Shao continued to lead 2,000 guards first, and Wen Choutong's infantry was delayed, and Yuan Shu did not dare to catch up again.

Yuan Shao hurried for a day and a night, and arrived at Guandu Port at noon on the third day, and was about to cross the river, but saw a soldier running towards him.

"Who are you?"

The soldier knelt down on one knee and returned: "Lord Qiyu, my subordinate is a sergeant of Yecheng. A few days ago, Gongsun Chan led an army of 100,000 to invade Jizhou, and then there were Wei County, Zhongshan State, Zhao State and other Yellow Turban remnants united with Gongsun Zhan, when his subordinates came, Gongsun Zhan's army had attacked to Guangping State, and the military division sent his subordinates to report to the adults, and asked the adults to return to Yecheng as soon as possible. ”

"Yuan Shu Xiao'er, Gongsun Zhan Xiao'er, I don't share the sky with you!"

After listening to the beginning and the end, Yuan Shao looked up to the sky and roared angrily.

It turned out that Yuan Shao asked Gongsun Zan to invade Jizhou, so that he could seize Jizhou from Han Fu. However, after the matter was completed, Yuan Shao did not divide Jizhou equally to Gongsun Chan as agreed, and Gongsun Chan hated Yuan Shao from this.

Later, Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, wanted to return to Luoyang in the east, and secretly ordered Liu He, that is, Liu Yu's son, to invite Liu Yu to welcome the Son of Heaven. Liu He passed through Yuan Shu's territory and informed Yuan Shu of the will of the Son of Heaven, but Yuan Shu detained him and wrote to Liu Yu, asking him to lead his troops to come and march together. Gongsun Zhan thought that Yuan Shu had different intentions and did not want Liu Yu to send troops, so he stopped Liu Yu, but Liu Yu did not listen. Gongsun Chan was afraid that Yuan Shu would learn that he had stopped Liu Yu, so he sent his cousin Gongsun Yue to lead a thousand cavalry to meet Yuan Shu, and made an alliance with Yuan Shu, secretly asking Yuan Shu to capture Liu He and capture Liu Yu's men and horses, and since then Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu have formed a grudge.

Subsequently, Yuan Shu sent Gongsun Yue Gongsun Yue to help Sun Jian attack Zhou Ang, the Taishou of Jiujiang appointed by Yuan Shao, but unfortunately he was shot by a stray arrow and died. Gongsun Chan resented Yuan Shao even more, but the northern alien race was uncertain, and Gongsun Chan had no time to settle accounts with Yuan Shao.

Now, because Liu Yu's gentle policy towards the northern aliens has taken effect, the two sides are at peace, and Gongsun Chan is finally free. Secondly, he received a letter from Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu said that he would stop Yuan Shao on the road, and Gongsun Zhan took the opportunity to take Jizhou. As a result, Gongsun Zan thought that he was the reason to avenge his brother and sent troops to Jizhou.

"Someone came, I ordered General Wen Chou to march forward immediately and resist Jizhou within three days. If not, it will be dealt with by military law. ”

"Whoa!"

A cronie was ordered to gallop towards Wen Chou in the rear, and Yuan Shao ordered 2,000 cronies to cross the river immediately. Now that Yecheng is unmanned, he must rush back immediately.

……

Yecheng Mansion

Yuan Shao's strategists and generals gathered here to discuss strategies against the enemy.

Feng Ji took the lead in speaking: "Military advisor, Gongsun Chan is menacing, and now Jinyang has been taken, and there is also the assistance of Wei Jun, Zhongshan Guo, Zhao Guo and other Yellow Turban remnants. Our army should not be able to hold out, send a large army to defend Huguan, wait for the return of the lord, and the reinforcements from all over Jizhou will arrive, and then fight a decisive battle with Gongsun Zhan. ”

The military advisor sitting in the center of the seat is none other than Lu Zhi.

At the beginning, Dong Zhuo wanted to depose the young emperor Liu Wei and set up Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, as the emperor, so he summoned hundreds of civil and military officials to discuss, no one dared to speak at that time, only Lu Zhi came out alone to oppose it, Dong Zhuo was furious and ordered Lu Zhi to be executed, Cai Yong interceded for him, and the speaker Peng Bo also hurriedly came out to dissuade Dong Zhuo and said: "Lu Shangshu is a great Confucian in the sea, the hope of scholars! Dong Zhuo gave up and only dismissed Lu Zhi.

Soon, Lu Zhi asked to return to his hometown of Zhuo County on the grounds of old age and unwellness. After waiting for Dong Zhuo's approval, Lu Zhi took the path to leave Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo really sent someone to chase and kill him. Lu Zhi lived in seclusion in Shanggu County, Youzhou, and did not ask about the world. Later, Yuan Shao obtained Jizhou, and worshiped Lu Zhi as a military advisor, and Lu Zhi came out of the mountain.

Gongsun Chan was originally a disciple of Lu Zhi, and Lu Zhi once sent a letter, but Gongsun Chan refused to withdraw from the army because he had to avenge his brother. In desperation, Lu Zhi had no choice but to convene the strategists and generals to discuss.

"Yuantu's plan is safe, but it weakens the prestige of our army. ”

Feng Ji's voice fell, and someone immediately stood up to oppose it, but it was Xu You. But seeing Xu Yu talking eloquently: "The lord used to be the leader of the coalition army, and now Gongsun Chan has invaded my Jizhou for no reason, which is the following offense, if he is not punished, how should the people of the world treat the lord? ”

"Now that General Wen Chou and General Yan Liang are not in the army, who can be a general?"

Feng Ji said with a cold face and disdain.

Feng Ji is one of the strategists who have followed Yuan Shao for the longest time, and in his opinion, Wen Chou and Yan Liang are brave, and the generals of Yuan Shao's army who joined later are average. is also extremely disdainful in his heart, and Feng Ji thinks that he has been following Yuan Shao for a long time, and he is proud of his old qualifications, and when Yuan Shao is not there, his tone is also extremely arrogant. What's more, Xu You refuted his proposal, and he had to compete with Xu You.

Xu Yu shook his sleeves and didn't want to argue with Feng Ji.

Xu You is not an arrogant maniac like Feng Ji, although he is greedy for money and is good at leaving and right the source, he also knows what human feelings are. Feng Ji said that except for Wen Chou and Yan Liang, there are no generals, obviously not afraid of other generals in their eyes, and looking at the dissatisfied eyes of the surrounding generals, they know that Feng Ji has offended them. Although Xu You knows that Wen Chou and Yan Liang are brave, there are still people who can compare with them. However, Xu Yu will not say it. If Xu You said it, it would reach the ears of Wen Chou and Yan Liang in the future, and they would definitely be hated by the two.

Xu You has scruples, Tian Feng, who was a strategist under Han Fu and is now a different driver for Yuan Shao and Jizhou, said bluntly: "The two generals Wen Chou and Yan Liang are brave, and now there are two generals in the army, Zhang He and Gao Lan, how weak are they?"

Previously, Yuan Shao captured Jizhou and did not distribute half of the territory to Gongsun Chan as agreed, so Gongsun Chan ordered Gongsun Yue to come to question. Later, Zhang He led 5,000 soldiers to repel Gongsun Yue, and his martial arts were praised by the generals and soldiers in the army. Tian Feng also heard about it, so he naturally recommended Zhang He at this time.

After everyone quarreled for a while, Lu Zhi waved his hand to stop it, and said loudly: "What Yuan Tu and Ziyuan said is reasonable, and now Gongsun Zan has led 100,000 troops, and there are 50,000 Yellow Turbans. There are only 10,000 defenders in Huguan and 20,000 defenders in Yecheng, even if it is related to the benefits of the card, if it is defended, the soldiers will be killed and injured countless times. In this way, when a large general was sent to command 5,000 soldiers to meet the vanguard of Gongsun Zhan, it frustrated its sharpness, so that it did not dare to storm Huguan. ”

"What the military advisor said is very good!"

Regarding Lu Zhi's decision, everyone did not have the slightest opinion.

First of all, Lu Zhi is a world-famous Confucian, and he once fought against the Yellow Turban, which can be described as both civil and military; secondly, Lu Zhi is a military advisor that Yuan Shao invited with great difficulty, and they can't and don't have the confidence to compete with him for status.

"Immediately ordered Feng Ji to be the supervisor of the army, leading 10,000 soldiers to defend Huguan; Zhang He was the vanguard, leading 5,000 soldiers to fight in the Gongsun Zan pioneer camp, and it was necessary to thwart Gongsun Zhan's spirit and let him know that our army was powerful. If there is a violation, it will be dealt with by military law!"

"Subordinates listen to orders!"

"The last general will obey the order!"

Feng Ji and Zhang He saluted and left, and after counting 10,000 soldiers in the defenders of Yecheng, they rushed to Huguan.

Now stationed in Huguan is Jiyin Dingtao Dong Zhao, Dong Zhao was raised as filial piety when he was young, served as the head of the gall pottery, the county commander of Bairen County, and now joined the army for Yuan Shao.

Dong Zhao is talented, and he has been shown when he was under Yuan Shao, but he has not been reused by Yuan Shao. Later, because someone slandered Yuan Shao, Dong Zhao had to flee, first served under Zhang Yang, and finally became Cao Cao's confidant. Cao Cao's addition of the title of King of Wei was proposed by Dong Zhao, and Dong Zhao's proposal to divide the fifth-class title also laid the foundation for Cao Wei's usurpation of the Han Dynasty.

When Feng Ji and Zhang He arrived at Huguan, they came to Dong Zhao to discuss.

"Gongren, what is the movement of Gongsun Zhan's army now?"

Dong Zhao's expression was relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Gongsun Zhan's 100,000 troops occupy Jinyang, and the remaining 50,000 Yellow Turbans will assist from the side. However, Huguan is strong, and Gongsun Chan has an army of one million, and if he wants to conquer it, he can't do it in a few days. Now the military division has sent General Zhang to lead the army, which can better ensure that the pot is safe. I have been looking at the military situation for several days, and I can finally sleep peacefully today. The next thing depends on Feng Jian Jun and General Zhang. ”

After Dong Zhao finished speaking, he yawned and left. Dong Zhao didn't see the dissatisfaction in Feng Ji's eyes.

Dong Zhao said that Zhang He would be able to ensure that the pot was okay when he came, and he didn't mention him at all, so didn't he look down on him? With Feng Ji's character, he naturally held a grudge against Dong Zhao in his heart.

Feng Ji and Zhang He ordered the army to rest and recuperate, and tomorrow Zhang He led the army out of the pass and fought a decisive battle with Gongsun Zhan.
