"Before our army entered Qingzhou, Gongsun Chan listened to slander and did not save the attacked generals, which led to the rebellion of the people and the embarrassment of power. Feng Ji smiled.

"Hahaha, Xiansi gave me a long face, this kid can be regarded as growing." Regarding Feng Ji's words, Yuan Shao was happy and quite complacent.

Speaking of this matter, we have to pursue not long ago, Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan fought with Tian Kai in the Qingzhou region and captured the plain area, and took advantage of the power of the battle of Yuan Shao's boundary bridge to drive Tian Kai out of Qingzhou.

At this point, the Qingzhou area also fell into the hands of Yuan Shao.

This is also a record that makes Yuan Shao happy and glorious.

Look, as the so-called tiger father has no dog, my Yuan Benchu's son is also extremely powerful, your Gongsun Zhan's command, wasn't he beaten by my son?

Just thinking about it, Yuan Shao was very proud.

"By the way, my lord, about the previous captives," Xu Yu suddenly asked on the side.

"Just deal with it according to Ziyuan's opinion." Yuan Shao waved his hand.

"By the way, if there are those who do not surrender and drive them to attack the city, I want to see what Gongsun Chan will do when the time comes!" Add a sentence at the end.

Nowadays, in this troubled era, generally speaking, except for those elite divisions, or armies such as personal guards, most of the captured soldiers will choose to submit, and those who are stubborn will be used as slaves or absenteeism and hard labor.

It is not impossible to even kill them directly.

After hearing this, Xu You's face couldn't help but show admiration, and he praised: "The way of the art of war is in the four words of improvisation, the lord is wonderful, Xu You admires." ”

A few days later, Yuan Shao and tens of thousands of troops under his command marched to Yijing.

Yuan Shao, under the support of the left and right, stood on a hillside opposite Yijing and looked at it from a distance.

I saw that Yijing is adjacent to Yishui in the south, the offensive and defensive facilities are extremely complete, there are ten moats around outside, and then the tall mounds are piled up, each mound is five or six zhang high, the troops are divided, the highest mound in the middle is ten zhang high, it is called "Beijing".

Gongsun Chan is among them, and he has hoarded millions of grains here, enough for him to support for several years.

In the original history, Yuan Shao was powerful, the Black Mountain Thieves and Gongsun Chan were weak, Yuan Shao had not broken through the siege of Yijing for two years, Gongsun Chan sent his son Gongsun to ask for help from the Black Mountain Thieves, as a result, the reinforcements sent by Zhang Yan were robbed by Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao raised the fire again, Gongsun Chan thought that the reinforcements were coming to lead the troops to fight, and Yuan Shao was defeated.

After Gongsun Zhan was defeated and returned to Yijing, he knew that there was no hope of victory, so he killed his wife and concubine and set it on fire, and Yuan Shaocai captured Yijing.

It was also Yuan Shao who successfully unified Hebei in this battle, no longer had to worry about the future, and annexed Gongsun Zhan's army and obtained the millions of military rations hoarded by Gongsun Chan in Yijing, and his strength increased greatly, and he intended to go south to fight for the world.

"What is Gongsun Chan's movement these days?" After watching for a while, Yuan Shao asked.

Feng Ji shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Youzhou has fallen, and Gongsun Chan has not moved, it seems that he wants to consume our food." ”

"Hmph, there is the grain looted in Youzhou, plus the grain transported in a certain Jizhou, and it is not a problem to surround him for three or five years, can our army be mixed into Yijing?"

Guo Tu shook his head and said: "Gongsun Zhan closed the city gate tightly, and when our army attacked Youzhou, he even turned away the displaced people. ”

"No, let's attack the heart first, set up camp for three days, and build siege equipment.

Then copy a thousand letters of surrender, and send them into Yijing City with flying arrows, saying that if the Youzhou soldiers who surrendered out of the city, I will not blame the past, and also send ten acres of good land to settle down, and those who donate the city will be rewarded again. Yuan Shao touched his beard and said.

"You and other generals, do your best to help release the arrows."

"No!" The generals under his command, Han Meng, Jiang Qi, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang and others stood up one after another and responded loudly.

"Princess, this time it's up to you to write the surrender letter yourself."

"No!"

Guo Tu went according to the order, personally wrote the surrender letter, ordered the scribes to copy it overnight, and threw it into Yijing City the next day.

In Yijing City, the repercussions of the book falling into the city are not great.

Because the family members of the guards in Yijing City were all placed in a camp by Gongsun Zhan, and sent cronies to guard them closely, if the soldiers had different intentions, they would kill the whole family, so the plan to attack the heart was not effective.

However, Gongsun Chan was also shocked out of the house for the first time.

Now the number of troops under his command has been reduced to 30,000, and the remaining men and horses in the rest of the counties are only more than 50,000.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Chan was grieved, at this time last year, there were still more than 100,000 male teachers under his command, how could there be less than half of them now.

A few years ago, when there were 300,000 Qingxu Yellow Turbans, into the territory of the Bohai Sea, Gongsun Zan also personally commanded 20,000 horses to defeat him, and his prestige was shocked, and he worshiped General Fenwu and Jihou.

Later, he crossed the river in the south and captured most of North China such as Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Yan, and built Yijing to pass through the Liaohai. It is self-signed that it will be the history of the three states of Qingdao, Hebei and Yan, and more counties and counties will be ordered.

Now, he is embarrassed and can't help but feel sad.

Gongsun Zhan was born in Liaotu and strong, he is a special character in the Gongsun clan, he experienced ups and downs in his early years, perennial battles, he did not have the children of wealthy families to pamper and pamper, eat, drink and have a corrupt life, treat people sincerely, willing to be a prisoner and too guard to fill the army far away, brave and loyal, battle-hardened, outstanding meritorious service.

Compared with Lu Bu's strong martial arts and invincible in the world, he was more resolute and brave, but the perennial fighting made him later become cruel and have no political convictions, and he became more and more greedy in the war and plunder, killing the people.

After killing Liu Yu, the Gongsun Zan group lost the hearts of the people and collapsed, he was hostile to and oppressed ethnic minorities, undermined Liu Yu's policy of ethnic unity, and plundered Liu Yu's gift to Xianbei.

As Yuan Shao said in his letter: "Things are attached to the heels of Xianbei, but they are driven by the feet." ”

It's just that now, within his ruling group, he uses more greedy and selfish treacherous villains, because of the defeat, he lost his fighting spirit, and finally gradually went to defeat.

couldn't help but take the initiative to say to Guan Jing on the side: "Hey, the situation of our army is critical, what should I do?" ”

Guan Jing said: "The lord can ally with the Montenegrin army and go to Montenegro to form an alliance." ”

Although Gongsun Zhan didn't think it was important to form an alliance, he still felt a little embarrassed when he thought about it, "I want to be a dignified white horse general, begging for yellow turbans inside, and cutting down Hulu outside, which is world-famous, and today I have fallen to the point where I have to rely on thieves in exchange for peace." ”

Guan Jingliang soothed, "Lord, the Yue Kingdom was almost destroyed by the Wu State back then, but fortunately, the Yue King Gou Jian lay down and tasted the courage, and sent the beauty Xi Shi to the Wu Wangfucha, so that he had to regain his strength, and finally destroyed the Wu State, forcing the Fucha to commit suicide and become the last overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, why not follow suit." ”

Gongsun Chan felt much better when he heard this, and nodded again and again, "That's right, that's right, what you said is very true, Guan Jing!" ”

"In!"

"I order you to send an envoy to Montenegro to discuss the alliance with that Zhang Yan."

"No!"
