Yuan Shao has Hebei Siting Pillar under him, and any one of them pulls it out, and his strength is not inferior to Zang Ba.

Yan Liangwen is ugly, Zhang He is high.

Even if there are no four people to make a move, Yuan Shao still has the number one general Ju Yi under him!

Even Chun Yuqiong, Zhu Ling and others.

They are all extremely powerful characters.

These people, under Yuan Shao, are the mainstays, and they are the factors that support Yuan Shao's power.

It's a pity that Yuan Shao can't make good use of these talents.

This time, the vanguard army sent by Yuan Shao was the 20,000 vanguard dead soldiers and Karasuma cavalry led by Gao Ran and Ju Yi.

Yuan Shao has two ace troops under him.

One is the Euphorbia, elite heavy infantry, capable of restraining almost all arms except light cavalry.

The other is the first to climb the dead soldiers, as the name suggests, is the first to climb the city wall, these first to climb the dead soldiers are the death squad, is the vanguard army, when the water is a bridge, when the pit is filled, when the dense forest is the first to explore, if you retreat, then break off.

Moreover, Yuan Shao's first dead soldiers are all equipped with heavy crossbows, which in addition to fighting bravely, they also have the role of restraining cavalry.

cooperating with Yuan Shao's halberd warriors is almost the reliance of Yuan Shao's subordinates.

Yuan Shao was able to fight in Hebei for so many years, in addition to relying on his powerful generals and strategists, these elite soldiers under him were also an important reason.

The current Ju Yi has not been feared by Yuan Shao, nor is he arrogant because of his merits, and he is still a general who is very trusted by Yuan Shao under Yuan Shao.

Some of the first dead soldiers led by him, combined with the 20,000 Karasuma cavalry led by Gao Ran, were invincible, and they were really unstoppable in the Qingzhou area.

Even though Zang Ba's personal strength is really good, the cottages under him are always some rabble.

In addition, without any special training, when Ju Yi and Gao Ran's cavalry arrived on the battlefield of Qingzhou, the bandits suffered heavy losses.

Even Zang Ba himself was injured on the battlefield, so he had to retreat temporarily, and cooperated with the men and horses of the Yellow Turban Army in the rear to resist together, barely blocking the attack of these people.

Linzi City, the largest city in Qingzhou, is also the seat of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Guan Hai, Chu Yan and others rushed to the aid of Zang Ba from Beihai County, and met Zang Ba, who was defeated by Ju Yi's first death soldier from the battlefield.

"Brother Zangba, how are you? You okay? ”

Guan Hai and Zang Ba, although they didn't know each other before, but because they both belonged to Liu Zheng at this time. During this time, they were stationed in Qingzhou together, and they also cultivated some feelings. Although they are stationed in different counties, in fact, Zang Ba is still their boss in terms of official positions.

Guan Hai and Chu Yan were also very nervous after hearing the news that Zang Ba was injured.

Zang Ba sat up from the bed he was lying on, his body already bandaged. Although he was slightly injured on the battlefield, this injury was not important, it was just some flesh and skin wounds, and it did not endanger his life.

"My injuries are fine, but brothers, we've got some hard bones this time."

"I heard you say before, it seems that some Karasuma people from Jizhou are attacking us?"

Zang Ba didn't know that the person who came was Yuan Shao at this time, he only knew that they were riding cavalry under their respective banners, and he only thought that these people were Karasuma people.

But I think it's strange, after all, most of the time the Karasuma people are only short of food in the winter to rob them, and now it's just spring, and it's not long before the summer, so they're busy with spring ploughing, even if they come to grab food, they can't grab anything?

"It should be Karasuma people, but it's not all Karasuma people, in my opinion, there are some people who may be Yuan Shao!"

"Yuan Shao! Isn't that the one the lord helped before! ”

After Guan Hai and Chu Yan heard the news, they were obviously a little surprised.

They knew very well that Liu Zheng had set up a trading point here in Donglai County, and sent grain to the northern Liaodong land all year round in exchange for war horses.

One of the biggest buyers is Yuan Shao.

If Yuan Shao betrayed Liu Zheng at this time and sent troops to attack Qingzhou, they really couldn't say anything.

But apparently they can also understand that there are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests. Maybe it was Yuan Shao who didn't want to come to Liu Zheng all the time to buy food, so wouldn't it be better to send troops over to grab it.

Therefore, Yuan Shao's attack, although it was only a surprise, they were also able to understand that this kind of thing was possible.

"How many people are there?"

Chu Yan was not so surprised, although he was a little surprised at the beginning, he immediately came to his senses, and asked Zang Ba more critical questions.

He wanted to know who the people who attacked Qingzhou this time were and how many men and horses they had. They need to know each other's situation before they can know each other and find ways to deal with it.

"I don't know the specific number of people, but there were only about 20,000 people who attacked Le'an County before, and some of them were very brave, they should all be elite soldiers in a hundred battles, not to mention launching an attack, even our two cities in just half a day, and now it is less than half a day away from my Linzi City, I asked you to come over just because I want you to help me resist!"

Not long ago, Zang Ba received news that some people were attacking from Jizhou, so he immediately sent his bandits to support the front line.

Originally, Zang Ba only had some county soldiers and more than 10,000 bandits in his headquarters, although he also recruited some bandits in the future, but it never reached 20,000.

But this time, in order to support the front line and resist the attack of those people, as a result, the bandit army, which was already small, directly lost more than half, and the people who fled back to Linzi City with him were only eight or nine thousand.

Fortunately, at this time, Guan Hai and Chu Yan came with some 20,000 Yellow Turban troops, and now there are 30,000 troops in Linzi City, so they will not be unconfident.

"Okay, Brother Zang Ba, you have a good rest first, and then I will hand it over to our brothers, I will definitely help you take this Linzi City, a few days ago I also received news from Xu You's military division, saying that the military division is bringing people to Qingzhou to preside over the overall situation. Presumably, we only need to hold on here for a while, and the lord will receive the news, and he will definitely bring someone to help when the time comes! ”

Chu Yan is to appease Zang Ba, Zang Ba and Chu Yan and others are not Liu Zheng's cronies after all, and they can't trust Liu Zheng at this time, so they don't know a lot of news, but when Xu You went south to Wu County, he still informed them of some news.

Now the news that Xu You led 5,000 sailors to come here to assist them in defending also reached Chu Yan's mouth not long ago.

It is precisely because of knowing this news that Chu Yan is so calm and not afraid of the upcoming enemy.
