As the Wuzhou counties in the Great Wall fell one after another, the news of Yuan Tan's comeback spread throughout the Heshuo region in an instant, and it also stirred up the hearts of many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. For a time, several rebel armies under the banner of the Yuan clan sprung up in various counties and counties in Hebei like mushrooms after a rain. Among them, there are not only the remnants of the Yuan clan who are unwilling to fail, but also the powerful clans who are dissatisfied with Cao and Cai Xinzheng, and even some people are just thinking about a soil emperor addiction.

However, because Cao Cao had previously "plowed" the prefectures and counties under his rule with a sword in the process of implementing the new policy. Therefore, there were only two small border towns in Cao's territory close to Bingzhou, and they had a small fight, and they were suppressed by Zhong Xuan's troops in time before they became a climate.

As for the Shangdang and Hanoi family clans who had been "taken care of" by Cao Cao, they were even more frightened at this time, and they didn't even dare to take a breather. And some ministers who had a relationship with Yuan Shao also wrote to the court one after another, saying that they and Yuan Shao would not be separated.

On the other hand, although Cai Ji also implemented new policies in the prefectures and counties under her rule, compared with the iron-blooded Cao Cao, she did not take the opportunity to purge the local powerful sect in Hebei, but used the advanced ideas of later generations to reach a win-win consensus with some powerful people. For a period of time, Cai Ji's gentle style did win her a good reputation and consolidated her rule over the prefectures and counties of Hebei. However, those who can share prosperity do not mean that they can share weal and woe. What's more, Jizhou and other places still have a lot of remnants of the Yuan family. Now seeing that the Marquis of Qi is trapped in Liaoxi, his life and death are uncertain, and Yuan Tan is fierce again. It is no wonder that many of the ape-minded men would start a large-scale rebellion in the states and counties under Cai Ji's rule.

"Therefore, An Zhao Qian and Huo Nu rebelled; Hejian Mintian Yin and Su Bo rebelled, inciting You, Ji; In addition, the lake thief Ye Wu gathered thousands of people for Kou Gaoyang......"

In the Ya of Nanpi Mansion in Jizhou, Tai Shi Ci listened attentively to the battle reports from his subordinates, and his face was gloomy as if a dark cloud was pressing down. In just a dozen days, the rebellions have swept half of Jizhou. Regardless of whether these rebels responded to Yuan Tan or had other intentions, Tai Shici only knew that he was entrusted by the Lord to sit in Jizhou to ensure the safety of the party. Not a single city or pool must be lost. But how to distinguish priorities and quell the rebellion one by one is a difficult problem in front of Tai Shici.

Thinking of this, Tai Shi Ci couldn't help but turn his gaze to Tian Feng, who was bowing his head and meditating, "The lord is trapped, the night is raging, according to the opinion of the military advisor, how can Ci Dang quell the rebellion?" ”

As an important minister who once served Yuan Shao, Tian Feng can be regarded as a "remnant of the Yuan family" in the eyes of outsiders. But Tai Shici did not suspect Tian Feng because of this, on the contrary, he also invited Tian Feng to enter the palace to discuss the military situation as a military advisor. This move moved Tian Feng, who originally planned to avoid suspicion, and had the urge to take Tai Shici as a confidant.

It must be known that although Tian Feng is Yuan Shao's old minister. But he didn't think that Yuan's country could be revived. As for Yuan Tan, who is making waves in the state at the moment, it is even more of a big joke. In Tian Feng's view, from the moment Yuan Shao became emperor, the Yuan family had lost the righteousness of commanding the world. And now Yuan Tan is even more timely, geographically, and there is no shortage of people. Looking at the whole revival plan, the only remarkable place is the siege of the white wolf designed by Guo Tu. Because after this catastrophe, no matter whether Cai Ji can get out or not, the prestige of this female prince will be greatly hit. Under the elimination of the other's strengths, the prestige and strength of Tai Shici and others who sit on one side will be further enhanced. And eventually formed a tail that will not fall. But on this day, most of Guo Tu and Yuan Tan have become dry bones in the grave. The so-called great cause of revival is nothing but a farce that harms others and does not benefit oneself.

So at this moment, facing Tai Shici's inquiry. Tian Feng only groaned slightly for a moment. Then he analyzed, "The people in the north are tired of chaos, they have been subdued for a long time, and there are many good guards; Tian Yin, Su Bo, and Ye Wu are dogs and sheep together, and they can't do harm. It's Zhao Qian, Huo Nu Beitong Yuan Tan. If it is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that people will be given a handle. ”

Tai Shi Ci nodded thoughtfully after hearing what Tian Feng said. There is no doubt that Tian Feng's so-called "giving people a handle" refers to Cao Cao, who is eager to try in the west. In the past month or so, Cao Cao has repeatedly indulged his generals to harass the counties under Cai Ji's rule, and his wolf ambitions have long been revealed. Now Zhao Li and Huo Nu took the opportunity of Zhuo County's Taishou Zhang Qing to go north. Under the banner of Yuan Tan, the two states of Ji and You, how could Cao Jun not use this as an excuse to invade the east! In contrast, although Tian Yin, Su Bo, Ye Wu and other powerful gangsters have a large number, they are a rabble after all, and there is nothing to worry about.

After figuring out this layer of stakes, Tai Shici immediately took the case and decided, "Good, according to the opinion of the military advisor, crusade against Xiong Sui to set an example!" ”

Seeing that Tai Shici did not hesitate to adopt his own proposal, Tian Feng was very pleased, but also had to sigh secretly in his heart, "Cai Anzhen does know people." From Tai Shici to Zhang He, from Zhang Liao to Gao Shun, the generals appointed by Cai Ji to the local government over the years are all handsome men with both ability and political integrity in Tian Feng's eyes. Because it is precisely with these generals that the state and county under Cai Ji can maintain the status quo and not collapse at this time of crisis. I'm afraid that Cai Anzhen won't be able to hold on to the end, and she will lose the enthusiasm of Tai Shici and others.

With a creak, the strong bow in Xian Yufu's hand was drawn into a full moon, and the tip of the arrow pointed directly at the fleeing scout in front of him. As the bowstring was released from the fingertips, the arrows flew out like meteors, knocking the rider on horseback to the ground. Seeing this, a Qi army rider on the side hurriedly slapped his horse and pulled back the war horse that had lost its owner.

Xian Yufu frowned and put the bow back on his back, and turned his head to Zhang Liao behind him and said, "General, it seems that our whereabouts have been revealed." ”

Zhang Liao glanced disappreciatively at the corpses lying on the ground, wiped the blood-stained saber on the leather robe of one of the corpses, and then returned the knife into the sheath and said, "It's okay to reveal your whereabouts." Liao Zheng is worried that he can't find the traitor! ”

It is said that at the same time that Yuan Tan was in turmoil and merged with the state, Shanggu, Yuyang, and Youbeiping counties, which are located on the border of the two states, did not have a large-scale rebellion like Jizhou. This is not to say that the people of Youzhou border pass love Cai Ji more than the people of Jizhou, nor that the officials of Youzhou are more loyal than the officials of Jizhou. It was because in March of this year, Zhang Liao and Pang Tong personally led 40,000 Qi troops to Yuyang City, an important town in Youzhou.

Yuyang City, which is Miyun County in later generations, is located at the southern foot of Yanshan Mountain, the northern edge of the North China Plain, and is a traffic channel connecting the Central Plains to the Northeast and Inner Mongolia regions, and its strategic position is very important. Since ancient times, it has been a battleground for soldiers. With the later Ming and Qing dynasties setting the capital of Beijing, this place is directly known as the "key to Beijing".

Although the current Yuyang has not yet reached the height of the "Jingshi lock key", it is the main road connecting the Central Plains and Liaoxi and Liaodong after all, once it is cut off by someone, whether it is Cai Ji who is trapped in the White Wolf River, or the reinforcements who have logged in from Jinxi, they will lose contact with the Central Plains, and thus become a turtle in the urn. In fact, Yuan Tan and Budugen really planned to encourage the Xianbei people near Shanggu, Yuyang, and Youbeiping counties to join forces to take Yuyang, and then go south to threaten Jicheng, the center of Youzhou. It's just that they never expected that Zhang Liao and Pang Tong would be willing to give up and merge with the state. Directly led the army to Yuyang. In the face of the 40,000 tiger warriors who were the first to settle in, Yuan Tan and Bu Dugen had to lead the Xianbei troops to detour through Yanmen County to invade the state.

In fact, it was not only Yuan Tan, Bu Dugen and others who were intimidated by the 40,000 Qi army. The two brothers Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin, who were stationed in Yuyang, were also weak in the face of Zhang Liao and Pang Tong, who suddenly arrived. You must know that there are only 10,000 people under the auxiliary account, and there are less than 3,000 truly elite troops, and they are not the opponents of Zhang Liao and Pang Tong at all. Because he did not respond to Li Min's call before. Xian Yufu, who was deeply afraid of being held accountable, resolutely volunteered to personally lead his troops to go deep into western Liaoning with Zhang Liao and others to rescue Cai Ji.

Although Pang Tong also wanted to personally lead the troops to rescue Cai Ji. But considering that the Xianbei people may infest Youzhou at any time. Yuyang's side needs someone who is good at guarding it. So everyone finally decided that Zhang Liao would lead his troops to help the White Wolf River with Xian Yufu. Pang Tong and Xian Yuyin stayed in Yuyang to monitor the movements of Yuan Tan and Budugen.

Now, under the guidance of Xian Yufu, Zhang Liao and the others have hurried for seven days and seven nights, and in the last three days, they have encountered four Wuhuan scouts one after another. Obviously, Gongsun Kang and Bun Dun had already sensed the existence of Zhang Liao and others, so they would continuously send scouts to inquire about the news, and the number of people was more than one stubble. However, although Zhang Liao was not afraid of being discovered by Gongsun Kang and Bang Dun, he did not know that because of his approach, Gongsun Kang, who was jumping over the wall in a hurry, was launching round after round of crazy attacks on Cai Ji's camp.

"Rush! To Lonely! The bounty for those who enter the camp is ten taels. The reward for capturing Cai Ji alive is 1,000 taels! ”

Gongsun Kang, who was standing in front of the battle to personally supervise the battle, shouted the high bounty hoarsely, and his eyes were red and almost wanted to breathe fire. In front of him, countless soldiers of the Gongsun Army were like locusts and swarmed towards the Qi army camp without fear of death, but they were covered by the rain of arrows from the Qi army, leaving behind a sea of corpses and blood.

See this. Rao is ghostly Bun Dun couldn't help but persuade Gongsun Kanggui at this time, "The second department of Liao and Fu is only more than a hundred miles away from the White Wolf Water. In Eaton's opinion, it is inevitable that the enemy will be attacked on the back of the abdomen, and we will slow down the Cai camp and turn to attack the enemy who is rushing to help. ”

Hearing that Zhang Liao's reinforcements were approaching sixty miles, Gongsun Kang's face turned from blue to white in an instant, and a pair of bloodshot eyes involuntarily cast a distressed glance at Guo Tu standing beside him.

Because Yuan Tan and Bu Dugen failed to break through from Yuyang and enter Pingcheng in the west according to the plan set by Guo Tu, they formed a horn trend with Gongsun Kang and the Badun Department in western Liao. And Gongsun Kang and Bandun also failed to conquer Qi Ying and take Cai Ji. This forced Guo Tu to make certain adjustments to the existing plan. In his opinion, there are two paths ahead of him. The first is to give up the siege of Qi Ying, and instigate Gongsun Kang and Bang Dun to march west to join Yuan Tan. The second is to continue to storm the camp in a desperate way, but no longer pursue the capture of Cai Ji alive. The former is obviously more secure, but under the difficulty of leaving his homeland, Gongsun Kang is most likely willing to flee back to his hometown in Liaodong, and will not follow Guo Tu to fight and merge with the state. The latter, on the other hand, is more of a gamble. Winning a bet is certainly fame and fortune. If you lose...... Then it is logical to coerce Gongsun Kang and Bandun to flee and merge with the state.

So in the face of Gongsun Kang's almost pleading gaze, Guo Tu muttered in embarrassment, "Attacking the Qi army for days is already the end of the crossbow...... However, Cai's camp is solid, and it is difficult to overcome it for a long time...... What Lord Bunton said is not unreasonable. ”

After listening to what Guo Tu said, Gongsun Kang looked back at the bloodied position in front of him, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Kill!" If you don't break the Qi camp, you swear not to withdraw your troops! ”

Seeing that Gongsun Kang had been carried away by hatred and fear, he snorted coldly and was about to leave with his sleeves, when he suddenly heard a ghost crying wolf howl behind him. I saw a person stumbling forward and threw himself down in front of Badun and wailed, "My lord, my lord, something is wrong! ”

He took a closer look, and saw that the person who came was the defender of Liucheng, and he couldn't help but change his expression and said in shock, "That building, you are not guarding the village in Liucheng, what are you doing here!" ”

I heard the building crying and wailing, "My lord, Liucheng has been broken!" Jinxi reinforcements are less than a hundred miles away from the White Wolf River! ”

"Jinxi reinforcements?!" His eyes widened, and he grabbed the placket of the building and shouted, "Liucheng is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can more than a thousand cavalry break it!" ”

The frightened Lou quickly stammered and explained, "Big... My lord, there are 100,000 people in the Qi army! Moreover... And there are artifacts to help you fight! Small... It's hard to handle the small ones! ”

"Nonsense! Where did Jinxi come from 100,000 people! Guo Tu, who was blowing his beard and glaring, raised his leg and kicked the building to the ground. But anyone could hear him with a tremor in his voice that could not be concealed. Because no matter whether there are 100,000 Qi troops from Jinxi, the fall of Liucheng is an indisputable fact. This shows that the Qi army's actions are far more rapid than Guo Tu imagined. And Guo Tu's previous judgment about the lack of war horses in Qingzhou's reinforcements now seems to be wishful thinking. If the Qi army really lacked war horses, how could they take Liucheng with lightning speed.

However, Gongsun Kang and the others didn't know at this time, and Guo Tu's judgment didn't dare to say that it was a hundred shots, at least it was seven, seven, eighty, eight. Just as the Qi army that conquered Liucheng did not have 100,000, it was only more than 10,000 when it was full. The reinforcements who came from Qingzhou did lack war horses, and the rush process was all on foot. But deduction is not simply one plus one equals two. Even if the Qi army with artillery to help the battle only has more than 10,000 people, it can easily take the Liucheng camp of the Wuhuan people. Under the leadership of Tang Ying and others, the infantry of the Qi army who took a shortcut was not necessarily much slower than the cavalry who took the main road. Therefore, at this moment, the Jinxi reinforcements are not a hundred miles away from the White Wolf River, but within thirty miles. (To be continued......)
