"What? Gongsun Chan took the white horse out of the city? What about the specific trends? Yuan Shao looked angry and said in a deep voice.

"Three days ago, Gongsun Zhan led Bai Ma Yi out of the city, and Tian Yu followed. White Horse Yi has always come and gone like the wind, and the specific movement is still unclear to us. Xu You said with an ugly face.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to be in a hurry, Gongsun Chan has a strong temperament, it is impossible for him to flee without a fight, the other party's targets are nothing more than a few." Xun Chen said. He knew very well what Yuan Shao was angry and worried about, Gongsun Zhan was now defeated and couldn't turn the tables around. But if they are bent on escaping, with the white horse righteous followers, they really have no choice.

This is not true, and now Gongsun Chan is already a frightened bird. In the past, even the flooding of Beiping could do such a thing as losing conscience. Now that the defeat is assured, it is not impossible for him to abandon Youzhou and escape. Guo Tu said coldly.

"Yes, this has to be guarded against. Your Majesty, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, we should send additional reinforcements in the direction of Yuyang and Luxian to prevent Gongsun Zan from fleeing Liaodong. The judge nodded.

"What about Gongsun Xu, Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue?" Yuan Shao asked suddenly.

"Gongsun Chan didn't take them with him when he left, but soon after Gongsun Chan left, they disappeared, leaving no trace, and their whereabouts are unknown." Xu You said in a deep voice. It was also the situation that disturbed him the most. He wouldn't think much about it if Gongsun Chan just disappeared, but with the addition of his heirs and brothers, it would inevitably make people think of others.

"Missing? Three big living people just disappeared? Didn't you notice even a little movement? What did the people in Jixian County eat? Blind? Yuan Shao said angrily.

The reason why he was so unhurried before was because everything was under control. Although today's Jixian County is the last fortress of Gongsun Zhan, in fact, the interior has long been broken by him. A small half of the civil and military forces under Gongsun Zan are secretly connected with him, and his eyes and ears are everywhere. In this case, he even lost the traces of Gongsun Chan and others, which made him really uneasy.

"Your Majesty is angry. Now that this has happened, it is useless to dwell on the matter. The appearance of such a strange and strange incident is obviously premeditated by Gongsun Zhan, and what we have to do now is to strengthen our precautions. Xu You said in a deep voice.

"But Youzhou is so big, with Bai Mayi's marching speed that has never come and gone like the wind and the number of more than 2,000 people, how can you guard against it? Even if you send cavalry to pursue, I'm afraid you won't even be able to eat dust, not to mention the combat power of the white horse, we all know that the troops below 10,000 horsemen are completely delivering food. Guo Tu said.

The advantage of the cavalry lies in this, if it can't be defeated, it can withdraw at any time, if Gongsun Zan is bent on retreating, Yuan Shao has no way.

"Gongze is right, if Gongsun Chan is bent on avoiding it, we really can't do it. Therefore, we can only prepare for the situation that Gongsun Chan will not be willing to be defeated and go to the north, on the one hand, we must guard against the possibility of Gongsun Chan fleeing to Liaodong, and on the other hand, we must guard against the possibility of Gongsun Chan's dog jumping over the wall and counterattacking the attack. Xu You said in a deep voice.

"Yuyang and Luxian each have 10,000 foot soldiers stationed, but they are still a little stretched in the face of Baima Yicong. And if Gongsun Chan wants to break the situation and force us to retreat, the best choice is to start with the grain and grass of our army, so Daijun's defense also needs to be strengthened. The judge said.

He spent a lot of effort researching Bai Ma Yicong's fierce rival, but the final conclusion he came to made him desperate. There are no weaknesses in this team, the only weakness is in its manager. You can attack and retreat and escape, and after having heavy armor, it can be said that there are no defects, and the only shortcoming is that you can't attack the city. For this kind of perverted troops, anyone can only feel helpless, unless Gongsun Chan chooses to be tough, this army will never be destroyed.

"But to do this, we need to transfer about 30,000 or 40,000 troops, and the total number of troops we came this time plus the follow-up is only 150,000, and then send these soldiers and horses, we only have 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses to call. There are no less than 20,000 defenders in Jixian County, and if we divide our troops like this, we may not be able to take Jixian. Guo Tu worried.

"It's okay, the defenders of Jixian County have no will to fight, as long as our troops are in the city, we can surrender them." The trial is direct.

"What if Gongsun Chan returns to the city?"

"Wouldn't that be better? As long as he dares to go back, we will immediately mobilize troops to surround Jixian County, so that he will not be able to escape. The judge sneered.

Bai Ma Yicong's biggest headache for him was not the powerful combat power, but the mobility. When it comes to frontal toughness and absolute superiority in troops, who is he afraid of? Don't say that he is now a half-crippled white horse righteous servant, even the white horse righteous servant at his peak is not scared.

"Okay, just according to what Zhengnan said. Yan Liang led 10,000 foot soldiers and 5,000 iron cavalry to Yuyang to garrison, and once he found the traces of Gongsun Zhan, he quickly dispatched. In addition, 10,000 soldiers were ordered to return to the county to defend Dai County, and they must ensure the safety of grain and grass. Yuan Shao ordered.

The biggest weakness of Yuan Shao's way of relying on many soldiers to attack cities and seize land lies in logistics. After Gan Ning's previous reminder, Yuan Shao also clarified this point, so logistics is very important in every battle.

With the talent of a monarch who gathers troops and the blessing of the fame of the fourth and third dukes, there has never been a shortage of troops under Yuan Shao's command. With an army of 300,000 alive from the land of Jizhou, Yuan Shao's ability is undoubtedly terrifying.

The soldiers and soldiers have their own advantages and disadvantages, Yuan Shao can beat Gongsun Chan with many soldiers, but Gongsun Chan only needs to adopt some tactics as he does now, Yuan Shao will be tired of coping. And logistics is also a great pressure, but with 3,000 people and fighting locally, the logistics problem of Baima Yicong is easy to solve, but Yuan Shao has to send a large number of troops to take care of logistics.

......

"Guorang, as you expected, Yuan Benchu has increased his precautions against logistics and Yuyang." Gongsun Chan said with a hint of resentment in his tone.

For Yuan Shao to look down on him so much, he was really unhappy in his heart. What did you think of him? If he really is such a lowly person, will he stay in this secluded state? He had already led his army to retreat to the grassland or Liaodong. Until now, Yuan Shao was still guarding against him from defecting to Yuan Shu, which really made him feel indignant.

"In the moment of life and death, who can guarantee that people's temperament will not change drastically? Didn't you, Your Majesty, do that kind of stupid act before? Tian Yu said unceremoniously. They are all about to die, and he only has a piece of sincerity and no reverence in his heart for Gongsun Chan at this time, just like treating an old friend, and there is naturally a little less respect for his superiors in his words.

"Don't talk about my scandal again, okay? I was really brain-dead at that time, and I'm not repentant now! After this battle, Tian Kai and the more than 10,000 resentful souls, I will go down to apologize to them. Gongsun Chan said freely, but his words were always full of an indelible sense of shame: "The past is irretrievable, and there is nothing that can compensate them in this situation, and apologizing for my sins with death may be the only thing I can do." ”

"The plan to divert the tiger from the mountain has been accomplished. Your Majesty, it's up to you next. The minister also wanted to take a second look at the demeanor of the white horse general back then, and it was not in vain that the minister had worked hard for so many years. Tian Yu said with a smile.

"You'll see." The corners of Gongsun Zhan's mouth hooked slightly: "No matter what the situation, I will always be the white horse general who will fight to the death." ”
