Chen stayed too guarded in the house.

Xiahou Yuan replied: "You can see clearly, it is Yuan Shao's subordinate Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu, they set up an ambush outside Hanoi City, the ambush is unimaginable, it doesn't give us time to breathe at all, it is over in less than half an hour, the soldiers are lost, all the grain and grass are burned, and General Cao Chun is also ......."

Xun Yu asked, "Have you seen the banner of the wolf king Zhang Zhen?" ”

Xiahou Yuan thought for a while and shook his head: "No, I only saw Yuan Shao and the high-character banner and the Jiang-shaped banner." ”

Zhang Zhen took the reins of the horse, stepped on the snow and immediately stopped. The people behind couldn't help themselves, grabbed the war horses one by one, and stopped one after another.

Jiang Yiqu asked, "What's wrong with the general?" ”

Zhang Zhen's eyes kept rolling in his sockets, and for a long time, he shouted: "Turn the horse's head, the target is the place where the grain is robbed, let's go back quickly!" ”

Gao Gan was shocked: "General, you are crazy, we just burned other people's grain and grass there, wouldn't we be caught in the net when we go back?" ”

Zhang Zhen was like a fast horse, and while running, he shouted loudly: "The front team changes to the back team, the back team changes to the front team, the goal is five kilometers ahead, run forward!" ”

Since Yuan Shao confessed that Zhang Zhen was the commander, unless Zhang Zhen wanted to take the five thousand military horses away, he could only listen to Zhang Zhen's orders under any circumstances. Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu followed behind Tai Shici to catch up with Zhang Zhen's footsteps.

Before dark, they rushed to the earth mountain where they had robbed the grain before, and Zhang Zhen ordered that no fire should be lit and no light should be seen.

Jiang Yiqu asked, "General, what are we doing when we come back?" ”

Zhang Zhen took a sip of water and said, "We burned other people's grain and grass, and killed other people's people, and now Lu Bu and Cao Cao will definitely send heavy troops to look for us everywhere and want to eliminate us, so we have to return here." ”

Gao Gandao: "In that case, wouldn't it be more dangerous here?" ”

Zhang Zhen shook his head: "I didn't tell you, the way of using soldiers, the truth is real, the truth is virtual, we stay here, they will never think of it, but we still have to be more than an exclusion of Hou and sentinels, not afraid of 10,000, just in case." ”

Lu Bu and the others searched for a day, but found nothing. It was as if Zhang Zhen's thousands of men and horses had suddenly disappeared, and it really came and went without a trace. Lu Bu returned to Hanoi dejectedly

Zhang Yang then asked, "Fengxian, is there any news?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head. Zhang Yang sighed: "Now that such a big thing has happened, I'm afraid Cao Cao won't provide us with grain and grass anymore, and if Yuan Shao comes again, I'm afraid that Hanoi City won't be able to be saved." ”

Lu Budao: "I'll go to see Cao Cao and ask him to give us some more grain and grass, if Yuan Shao destroys us, it won't do him any good." ”

A thin Confucian priest coughed lightly: "Wen Hou doesn't have to go, Zhang Liao told me that Cao Cao's love general Cao Chun died in this battle, presumably Cao Cao will never give up, if I guess right, within ten days, Cao Cao's grain and grass will arrive!" ”

Cao Cao arranged Cao Chun's funeral.

Guo Jia said: "Lord, let's give up publicity!" Even if we give him more assistance, Zhang Yang will still be eliminated by Yuan Shao after all, and now Yuan Shao already knows that if he is angry with us because of this matter, I am afraid that there will inevitably be a big war between us and them. ”

Cao Cao shook his head: "No, now we don't have many soldiers and horses, and the grain and grass can't support us to fight against Yuan Shao head-on, if we don't let Zhang Yang contain Yuan Shao more, Yuan Shao will definitely attack us when he frees his hand, only by tying Yuan Shao to Zhang Yang, we can develop with peace of mind." ”

"Lord!" Xun Yu next to him said: "Our grain and grass are also insufficient, what if we give publicity and let people rob it?" ”

Cao Cao sat up straight: "Where is Cao Ren?" ”

"The last general!" Cao Ren got up and replied.

"I order you to lead an army of 5,000 and escort 10,000 loads of grain and grass to Hanoi as soon as possible, there must be no mistake!" Cao Cao ordered.

When Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu woke up the next day, they found that Zhang Zhen, Tai Shici, Zhang Xiu, and a dozen of his men were all gone. Command people to look around. searched and searched, and almost turned over the entire forest, but no trace of Zhang Zhen was found. Deep in the hinterland of Hanoi, he did not dare to be blatant, and asked the sentinels to ask.

The sentry said: "In the middle of last night, the hussar general and his men left, and we thought that they had something to do, and we did not dare to stop it. ”

At this time, Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu knew that Zhang Zhen had run away, threw them under the city of Hanoi, and ran away by himself. The main generals all ran away, and Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu had no intention of fighting again, so they quietly slipped out of Hanoi with their men and horses and went back.

Zhang Xiu asked Zhang Zhendao: "Lord, why did we sneak away?" ”

Zhang Zhendao: "Yuan Shao sent Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu to our side, firstly, to let them command the troops, not to let me take his soldiers and horses away, and secondly, to monitor me, in case I make any moves, these thousands of soldiers and horses will become a sharp weapon to intercept and kill us." ”

Zhang Xiu sighed: "It turns out that Yuan Shao is so cautious that he can't forget his personal enmity? ”

Zhang Zhen said with a smile: "This Yuan Shao is the most despicable, when he was in Luoyang, he relied on the power of his own family to do nonsense, and now he is even more dominant, first kill Han Fu, seize Jizhou, and then fight Zhang Yang, I believe that soon, he will point his sword straight to the north, Youzhou will be involved sooner or later, I think Liu Yu can't stop Yuan Shao's soldiers, our merge state is the closest to Jizhou, the first to bear the brunt, the heart of harming people must not have, the heart of defense must be indispensable!" Therefore, while Yuan Shao and Zhang Yang are fighting fiercely in Hanoi, we must go back as soon as possible and prepare for it! ”

Zhang Xiu nodded: "Yes!" With Yuan Shao's character, he controls the north of the Yellow River, and the next one will definitely be us. ”

Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu returned to Yuan Shao's barracks, Yuan Shao was stunned and asked, "Why did you come back?" What about Zhang Zhen? ”

Gao Gan said: "Zhang Zhen will still be under the city of Hanoi, and he will run away with people!" ”

Yuan Shaoyi gritted his teeth: "This Zhang Zhen, really worried that I will harm him, forget it, leave him alone, clean up Zhang Yang, and then make a plan, occupy my merger, sooner or later I will let you let me out!" ”

I have to say that Yuan Shao is thick-skinned, originally heard that Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu, Yuan Shao immediately sent Gao Ran and Chun Yuqiong to prepare to recover and merge the state, but he didn't expect Zhang Zhen to move faster than him, and when the army arrived at Huguan, Zhang He had already set up a defense in Huguan to block his army from moving forward, and the stalemate was fruitless for several months, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Jiang Yi channel: "Lord, then ...... our mission to intercept Cao Cao's grain team?" ”

Yuan Shao showed a hint of a smile: "Last time, you not only burned the grain and grass, but also shot Cao Cao's beloved general Cao Chun, the credit is very great, and I will talk about the interception of the grain and grass later, now I have all the soldiers, the small city of Hanoi, I don't care about it yet!" ”

"Cao Chun?" Jiang Yiqu asked: "But the nephew who is valued by Cao Cao very much, I heard that Cao Chun is still Cao Cao's own nephew!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded.

Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu retreated.

Xu Yu next to him said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, Zhang Zhen should not be underestimated, leaving behind is definitely a big trouble, and he has to be removed?" ”

Yuan Shao thought for a while and said, "Now that Zhang Zhen has run away, how can we get rid of it?" ”

Xu Yu said: "According to what Gao Gan and Jiang Yiqu said, Zhang Zhen shouldn't have run far, Zhang Zhen now not only has to guard against us but also against Lu Bu and Cao Cao, so he shouldn't be blatantly rushing, lord, I have a plan, I can put Zhang Zhen to death!" ”
