When Yuan Shao woke up, Xu Ding's iron cavalry was killed under Jixian County.

All the troops and horses also gathered.

Xu Ding naturally knew everything that happened in various places of the various armies.

Anci was also properly surrounded to death, and Xun Kan and Zhang Jaw couldn't move.

There are only Yuan Shao, Wen Chou, Zhao Zhao and others left in Jixian County, with less than 40,000 soldiers and horses, and this is still plus some private soldiers of the family, and the Jizhou soldiers who followed Yuan Shao are far from enough.

However, it is not a small amount compared to defending the city.

But under the city is the Donglai army, the strongest army in the world.

The five major captains and lieutenants were gathered, as well as all the soldiers and horses of the Jinwu Guard except for the Fa Guard.

At the same time, there is also the Gongsun Zanbu of the Youzhou Corps.

A total of about 80,000 soldiers and horses, twice as many as the defenders in the city.

This can really be said to be vast, densely packed, and the camps are surrounded on three sides by the entire Jixian City, leaving only Xicheng for Yuan Jun to enter and contact the outside.

But now Yuan Jun is useless, except for An Cicheng, there is no one worth contacting Yuan Shao.

Moreover, Ancicheng was also besieged by Cheng Yu and Lu Qian.

Xun Kan and Zhang Jaw are not ready to contact Jixian County.

Yuan Shao woke up again and asked all the questions, but this time he only coughed up blood but did not faint.

The blows that should have been borne have also been suffered, and the losses have also been lost.

He himself knew the general outcome, so he was more calm.

The three sons are all dead, the civil and military are dead, and the territory is almost lost.

And what else he can't afford.

The mood has changed, and the whole person is more relaxed.

So he had him helped him to the east gate.

When he came to the East City Gate and saw that the camp outside had expanded a lot, Yuan Shao sent an envoy to Xu Ding's camp.

"Yuan Shao wants to see me." Xu Ding looked at the person who came, heard Yuan Shao's thoughts, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, you go back to restore your life, and I will go to the city gate in a moment." ”

Soon Xu Ding came to the East City Gate with five hundred horsemen.

He stopped a stone's throw away, looked up at the gate of the city tower and said, "Yuan Benchu, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Yuan Shao saw the high-spirited Xu Ding, the more powerful Xu Ding than before, his heart was bitter, and he pursed his lips and said, "Xu Ding, you won't let me go, right?" ”

Xu nodded his head: "Of course! ”

"If I'm willing to surrender, you won't let me go." Yuan Shao asked again.

Xu Ding's face did not change: "Of course, whether you surrender or not will not have a big impact on me, and you know very well the grievances between the Yuan family and me." Even if you surrender, you can't change your fate, of course, if you surrender, your subordinates can be treated well, after all, they are all courtiers of the Han Dynasty, and there is no need to lose in this kind of internal friction. ”

"Excellent! In this way, I can rest assured, your persistence has given me some confidence, and let me understand that I, Yuan Shao, am not so wasteful and need to be pitied. Yuan Shao shook his head lightly, smiled, and then said with a resolute face:

"Xu Ding, I will fight with you in two days, and compete outside the city in a dignified manner, do you dare!"

"Field ......" Xu Ding was a little surprised, the battle of defending the city was the most beneficial to Yuan Shao, he actually chose to fight in the field, but Xu Ding did not refuse, and replied proudly:

"Okay! If you have this kind of courage, I will fulfill you, and you Yuan Shao can be regarded as a figure among the princes of the world, and you have the posture of a hero, so that you can be defeated and serious, and you will not be disgraced by the name of the fourth world and the third prince! ”

"Thank you! Thank you, Xu Bokang can still admit that my Yuan family is such a false name. Yuan Shao suddenly smiled, a very bright smile, and then looked up to the sky and sighed again:

"Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He, and the fame of the world is just a foreign thing after all."

"Yuan Benchu, if you don't have anything else to do, I'll leave first." There was nothing to talk about with Yuan Shao, so Xu Ding urged the horse to turn around and leave.

At this time, Yuan Shao shouted: "Wait! Xu Bokang: I have another question? ”

"Ask!" Xu Ding spit out.

Yuan Shaomu jumped into the distance, looked at the blue sky and asked, "How big is the world?" ”

This question seems to be an idiot to ask, because Xu Ding's Donglai Newspaper has said it in daily, ten, and monthly newspapers.

An abridged version of the map was also published.

Everyone knows that the world is very big, and in addition to the big Han, there is a lot of space outside.

However, this is just a newspaper, and everyone, especially Yuan Shao, still knows very little about it.

Therefore, Wen Chou, Wei Yuanjin, Zhao Rui, Zhao Zhao and others also listened to each other, waiting for Xu Ding's answer.

They are also curious about how big the world really is.

"How big the world is, it's really hard to say this question, I can only tell you this, the map published in the newspaper does not have this ......" Xu Ding pointed to the ground: "The place we are in is called the earth, it is nearly round, we actually live on a sphere, and the territory you see in the newspaper is not one-tenth the size of this ball." ”

Not a tenth.

Silk!

It's so big, it's too big.

The territory of the Han Dynasty is based on the scriptures, which makes the family feel extremely difficult to rule.

And the map in the newspaper is only a small part, you can imagine how big this so-called earth or world must be.

"Of course, if this world doesn't just refer to the ball we are in, then no one knows how big it is, because it is so big that it has no edge, even if it is from Pangu to open the sky, the three emperors and five emperors start to ride horses and run, you can't touch the edge." Xu Ding pointed to the sky at this time: "The sky is not empty, but a star like the ball we are in, they are big and small, vast and boundless, the stars and moons in the world are actually balls, some of them are very close, such as the moon; Some are far away, just shining with a faint light, like stars, so no one knows how big the world is. ”

Although everyone didn't understand these words, they didn't feel very powerful, which made people feel extremely profound, and at the same time, they also made people understand that the world, the other world, is so big that they can't think about it, because they can't touch the edge for thousands of years on horseback, how big is this?

After finishing speaking, Xu Ding really ignored Yuan Shao this time, and then patted his horse back to the camp.

Left behind a group of Yuan Shao generals who were a little dazed and sighed.

Yuan Shao sighed for a long time: "Maybe, this is why I lost to him, my vision is not as good as his, this is really a terrifying person, he knows everything, as if it is the Heavenly Monarch who descended to earth, and I Yuan Benchu was not unjustly defeated." ”

After speaking, Yuan Shao also turned around and went back to the city, he had to recuperate well in the past two days, he had to cheer up and use his best state to fight with Xu Ding.

After getting out of the city, suddenly Yuan Shao turned around and came back to a group of civil and martial artists: "Two days later, this battle, I hope to fight with you, but I also hope that if you can not participate, you will not participate, and I don't have to avenge me after I die, although I have a grudge with Xu Ding, there is a festival, but he can really suppress the foreign race, can open up the territory and expand the territory for my Han Dynasty, Yang Wei Quartet, and he will not be humiliated!" ”

After speaking, Yuan Shao got on his horse and then ran back to the state capital.

Wen Chou glanced at everyone, then clenched his fists and said: "Hebei Shuangxiong has lost my Brother Wen Heng, what's the point of me keeping it." Since he should follow the lord in life and death. ”

Zhao didn't say anything, he was able to come to Jixian County to show his attitude, and he didn't need to explain to others.

Wei Yuanjin and Zhao Rui looked at each other for a long time, then shook their heads and got on the horse.

Only Cui Zhongping stared at the backs of the generals of Jizhou and Yuan Shao after leaving, standing for a long time.

"That's it, although the service is late, there is no such thing as a master or a master, there is a beginning and an end, and there is a younger brother who will not decline in the Cui family, so let me, the so-called strategist who is not successful, accompany you for a while."
