Yan Liang fled.

And Zhang He and Ju Yi are still storming the city.

They stormed for a day without any progress.

However, Juyi's army was relatively strong, causing a lot of damage to the defending army.

However, the city remained strong, and the enemy showed no signs of breaching it.

Become a hot spot.

Both sides fought fiercely.

This tall wall makes it difficult for the enemy to attack effectively.

And the city is also hot.

Students learn through exchanges, share their experiences, and study exam papers at the same time.

Many people were inspired, and many were discussing the merits of this imperial examination model.

Many students have realized that the era when the family monopolized everything in the past and could naturally become an official will slowly pass.

Of course, they still have a huge advantage in a short period of time, because they are the only ones who can afford to read.

There are also some children of the poor family who know that the imperial examination is their only way.

Entering officialdom through a family, you have to rely on these families all your life, and the room for growth is very limited.

Only the imperial examination is where they come out.

In addition, they also know that through the imperial examination, they can change their lives.

In the city, although these students were trapped in the city, Zhang Ming gave them great protection.

Many of the simple houses that were built before were for them to live in, and at the same time, they were provided with free meals.

Although the meals are relatively simple, they are also filling.

Some of them have their own money, and they can buy food by themselves.

In the city, there are also plenty of books to buy.

Zhang Ming has prepared a batch of books for public sale.

There is even a military ceremony, Sun Tzu's Art of War.

This grandson's soldiers and horses, and other art of war, later emperors are listed as controlled books, in principle, the people cannot have this book, only a few people can learn.

Later emperors were also afraid that someone would rebel, so they strictly controlled such books on soldiers and horses.

But Zhang Ming did not control it and sold it openly.

"This is too unusual, it doesn't teach Confucianism, and it actually sells books on law and Taoism."

"In this imperial examination in Youzhou, there are still Taoists, Legalists, soldiers, Yin and Yang families, and so on."

"This chapter is to reverse the Taoism of Confucianism."

"In this imperial examination in Youzhou, I have also tested a lot of Confucianism."

Zhang Ming singled out the famous articles of many thinkers for the exam, which made many people uncomfortable.

Although this was not the peak of Song and Ming science, Confucianism also occupied the most important position.

However, Zhang Ming's exam was not all Confucianism, and many other subjects were also examined.

This was opposed by many students, and some students joined in tandem and prepared to go to the book to openly oppose Zhang Ming.

All this was seen by Zhang Ming, but he ignored it completely.

Two days later, the news of Yan Liangwen's defeat came.

Zhang He and Ju Yi were shocked and hurriedly retreated.

If you don't retreat, you can't do it, you will die a miserable death.

On the way, Zhang He and Ju Yi's faces were not good.

"The two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou have retreated, they have no food, they can't hold on, we may be ambushed all the way back."

Zhang He was very worried, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were in the camp, so naturally they didn't have to carry grain and grass with them, and when they retreated, there was no grain and grass, so they couldn't stay and wait for Zhang He.

Then, Zhang He and they have become in-depth lone soldiers.

"Our 40,000 troops, it is not so easy to ambush us, we only carry enough food and grass for five days, and we must withdraw immediately."

Ju Yi's words are also very reasonable, and they can't even slow down.

Ju Yi and Zhang He were very fast and left immediately.

At this time, Xi Zhicai did not plan to ambush them.

Ambush, of course, can be successful.

However, Ju Yi and Zhang He still have about 40,000 troops, and the losses on both sides will be very large.

Xi Zhicai didn't want to have such a loss.

Three days later, Zhang He and Ju Yi escaped smoothly and were not pursued.

However, they did not dare to delay, and hurried south, because they had only two days of food left, and they had to hurry back to Jizhou.

It is said that Yan Liang and Wen Chou also fled all the way south, and a day after they fled, the soldiers were hungry and were about to starve.

They killed the horses once, and the people ate something.

Then they hurried, and there was still a day left to get to the nearest city, and they had to endure another day.

Continuing south, after running for a long time, many people couldn't walk, there was nothing to eat, and it was really difficult to hold on.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou could only ask the soldiers to stop first, kill a thousand more war horses, and eat something for everyone.

Although horse meat is difficult to eat, it is hungry and dares to eat anything.

He had just killed the war horse when suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves in front of him.

"Reinforcements?"

"Who will this be, and will there be any food to eat?"

After a while, they saw who it was.

"It's the enemy."

"Run."

"Run, the enemy is coming."

It turned out to be Zhao Yun who ran back.

Zhao Yun's scope of activity was mainly a passage for the enemy to transport grain and grass.

I went around in a big circle, and I was about to go back at this time.

happened to run into the army of Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

Zhao Yun has always been bold, and when he saw that there were enemy troops "blocking the road" in front of him, he did not stop, and directly ordered to attack the past.

As soon as they arrived, the enemy was about to collapse at the first touch, and Zhao Yun and the others slowed down and killed all the way.

Yuan's army scattered in all directions, without any intention of resisting.

At this time, they did not have the strength and courage to resist.

Zhao Yun successfully fought out, killing thousands of enemy soldiers.

Just thinking about whether to kill back and kill again, Chun Yuqiong in the rear had already chased after him.

Zhao Yun didn't stop and left immediately.

In the rear, Chun Yuqiong chased after him, and it was really strange to see his own army, so embarrassed.

After asking, I learned about the army that had been defeated and returned from the front.

Chun Yuqiong was sad on the surface, shouting that she wanted to hunt down Zhao Yun.

But the heart blossoms with joy.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou suffered such a big defeat, and his previous guilt was much smaller.

After a while, Yan Liang and Wen Chou came over, and Chun Yuqiong hurriedly dismounted to meet him.

"Quick, quick, take out some of the food on your body, take it out."

Chun Yu Qiong's willingness to help friendly troops, this is a good opportunity to buy people's hearts.

At the same time, there is no need to continue the pursuit, the army is defeated, he continues to pursue, it may be very dangerous, divide the grain, Chun Yuqiong does not have much food in his hands, so naturally he can't pursue.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou had no choice but to accept it, if they didn't accept it, his army would probably mutiny.

Let the army eat well.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou went back with the defeated army.

This Zhang He and Ju Yi also withdrew two days later.

The whole army withdrew, but it suffered heavy losses.

In this battle, they did not achieve their goal, and the imperial examination was carried out as scheduled.

To relaunch the offensive, it will take more than ten days to prepare.

For more than ten days, everything was late, and there was no need to attack Youzhou.

This time, again, the loss of troops was lost.

In other words, Yecheng, at this time, Yuan Shao did not know the news of the defeat in front of him.

But he was angry about one thing, and during the day, Gao Ran's family, a dozen people, mysteriously disappeared.
