In the early morning of the second day, Yuan Shao ordered Chun Yuqiong and Xu Yu to stay in the camp, and he took the generals Yan Liangwen Chou and Changshi Fengji, led 5,000 soldiers and horses, and Han Zhan and them joined forces together and marched towards Jizhou.

Yuan Shao rode a horse and walked beside Xun Chen's carriage, chatting as he walked, while Han Zhan and Zhao Yun were far behind.

Zhao Yun saw that the soldiers on the left and right were all in a hurry, so he lowered his voice and said to Han Zhan: "Childe, it seems that your analysis yesterday was completely correct?" ”

"Analysis, what analysis?" After Han Zhan woke up, he forgot what he had said with Zhao Yun, so when he heard Zhao Yun say this, he couldn't help but ask with a blank expression: "What analysis did I do?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded at Yuan Shao in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Childe said that Chun Yuqiong is Yuan Shao's favorite general, and he was not good at that time. But seeing that Yuan Shao actually let the other party command tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to sit in the camp, he knew that what Gongzi said last night was extremely true. "Since Yuan Shao received the seal ribbon from Jizhou, Zhao Yun and Han Zhan have called Yuan Shao by his first name when they mentioned him in the conversation.

"Regardless of whether Yuan Shao acted yesterday or not, but my intercession for Chun Yuqiong in public can make the other party remember my favor." Han Zhan said to Zhao Yun: "Even if I can't turn enemies into friends with him, at least for a short time, I won't become an endless rival." ”

There were bursts of rumbling thunder in the sky in the distance, Zhao Yun looked up at the sky, only to see thick black clouds rolling and accumulating in the sky, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's going to change the sky!" ”

"That's right, it's going to change!" Han Zhan glanced up at the sky and said thoughtfully: "Not only is the weather going to change, but the sky in Jizhou is also going to change." I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse for the people of Jizhou. He thought in his heart, if God opened his eyes and a thunderbolt chopped Yuan Shao to death, would the history of the Three Kingdoms be rewritten from now on?

When the brigade marched to the Julu area, with a thunderclap in the air, the heavy rain poured down from the sky like the water of the Yellow River bursting the embankment. Yuan Shao hurriedly gave an order to stop the troops and camp on the spot to rest.

After the soldiers first set up tents for Yuan Shao and the civil and military forces, they began to set up their own tents. Although the soldiers set up their tents quickly, when Han Zhan entered Yuan Shao's tent, they were still drenched in soup.

Yuan Shao sat down behind the table in the center, Wenwu sat on the left and right, and Han Zhan and Xun Chen sat in the position where Yuan Shao was in charge. Because of the loud rain outside, a soldier who came in to report the news said in his throat for a long time, and Han Zhan heard it clearly, it turned out that the other party was reporting to Yuan Shao, because of the heavy rain, the water of the Zhanghe River swelled, the bridge on the river was broken by the flood, and the large army could not cross the river for the time being.

Yuan Shao waved his hand, motioned for Tanma to retreat, and then asked the Wenwu: "Everyone, Tanma returns, the water of the Zhanghe River has soared, the bridge has been broken, and we can't cross the river for the time being, what do you think?" ”

The rain was so loud that the civil and military officials who were far away only saw Yuan Shao's upper and lower lips moving, and they didn't hear what he was saying clearly. Only Feng Ji, who was the closest, heard what Yuan Shao said clearly, and hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiqi, since the water of the Zhanghe River has risen sharply and the bridge has been broken again, we might as well rest here for the time being, and at the same time send people to repair the bridge." After the rain has passed, it is not too late to continue on the road. ”

Although Yuan Shao was in a hurry to take over Jizhou, but now that the torrential rain was pouring and the Zhanghe River was blocking the road, the team could not move forward, so they could only stay here for the time being and wait for the weather to improve according to the words of Feng Ji.

When the rain was a little lighter, Han Zhan and Xun Chen braved the rain and returned to their tents. Han Zhan entered the tent, quickly took off the wet clothes on his body, and changed into the clean clothes that his soldiers had prepared a long time ago. When he finished changing his clothes, he found that Xun Chen was standing at the door of the tent, looking outside.

He walked over and asked curiously, "Uncle, what are you looking at?" ”

Xun Chen pointed outside and said to Han Zhan, "Zhan'er, come and see, what kind of place is there?" ”

Han Zhan thought that there was some western view, and stared at it for a long time, except for the tent that could barely be seen clearly in the rain and fog, there was nothing, not even a patrol, except for the soldiers standing guard outside the camp gate, the rest of the people hid in their respective tents to avoid the rain. He shook his head and replied, "Uncle, I don't see anything except the tent outside. ”

Hearing Han Zhan's answer, Xun Chen asked with some confusion: "Don't you know where we are, called Julu?" ”

"Yes." Han Zhan nodded and said disapprerovingly: "Just now in Yuan Gong's tent, I heard others mention it, and it seems that this is the giant deer. ”

"Don't you know that the famous Battle of the Great Deer took place here?"

"The Battle of the Great Deer?" Hearing Xun Chen say this, Han Zhan was a little dumbfounded, his mind was running at high speed, trying to think about what had happened to Julu in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" he had watched? But unfortunately, after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't have a clue. I could only shake my head and say honestly: "Uncle, I don't seem to have heard of the Battle of the Giant Deer, you tell me what is going on." ”

"You, you're really unlearned." Xun Chen pointed at Han Zhan with his hand, with an expression of hatred on his face: "You don't even know about the battle of the giant deer?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Han Zhan had been injured by falling from a horse, and he seemed to have some kind of soul loss, so he sighed softly and popularized science to him what the Battle of the Giant Deer was. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Han besieged Julu, and Xiang Yu led the Chu army to the south of Julu, crossed the Zhanghe River, and ordered the whole army to break the cauldron and sink the boat, burn the houses and tents, and bring only three days' rations, in order to show the determination to die if they are not victorious. They went straight to Julu with lightning speed, defeated the Qin army of Zhang Hanbu to protect Yongdao, cut off Wang Li's grain route, and surrounded Wang Li's army.

After nine fierce battles, Zhang Han was finally repulsed, Wang Li was captured alive, and the Qin general Su Jiao was killed. ”

When Han Zhan heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and secretly said If your old man directly said that the cauldron was broken, I would definitely know what was going on, what kind of battle did you want to talk about, I don't study history, how do I know that this battle is related to Xiang Yu. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still bowed deeply to Xun Chen and said respectfully: "Thank you uncle for your advice." ”

The more Xun Chen spoke, the more excited he became: "In the past, the overlord of Chu broke the kettle here and achieved a hegemony. Now that Yuan Gong is blocked here by the torrential rain, could it be the will of heaven, hinting that he will be able to win the world in the future? ”
