The sky of Jinyang was gloomy, and the Yuan army that was besieging the city returned again, and Guan Yu even personally led his troops to pursue until the Yuan army camp, and then slowly retreated under the threat of Yuan army's crossbow arrows.

"If Yan Liang and Wen Chou are here, how can they be afraid of Guan Yu's husband!" Yuan Shao was extremely angry at the time.

It was Guan Yu's unstoppable martial arts who tore through the defense line of the Yuan army again and again, cut the flag, and destroyed the front-line command system of the Yuan army again and again, and more than a dozen generals died directly under Guan Yu's knife, among them, there was Yuan Shao's old brother, the original fierce general of the Xiyuan Army, Chun Yuqiong! Yuan Shao had already remembered Guan Yu after hundreds of rounds of battles with Lu Bu under the Tiger Prison that day, but only after seeing with his own eyes that the defense line he had carefully constructed was ruthlessly crushed by Guan Yu like mud, Yuan Shao really understood why Guan Yu, who was born as an outlaw, would be Liu Bei's most relied on second brother and the first military general in the state!

It's a pity that Yan Liangwen, the most brave and warlike man in Jizhou, is not around, one was sent to rush to the West River, and the other stayed in Jizhou to attack Luoyang, Hanoi, and also kept an eye on Liu Bei.

Yuan Shao's wish came true in the evening, and Yan Liang, the first fierce general in Jizhou that he relied on the most, returned, but it was a corpse, as well as Zhang Nan, Gao Ran and nearly a thousand remnants of the defeated soldiers.

Finally, this Zhang Nan and Gao Ran were alert, dragging a carriage and carrying Yan Liang back, even if this thousand remnants were defeated, they also held their heads high as much as possible, and they were not allowed to talk to anyone! Although the low morale allowed almost all of the Yuan army to be seen, the news of Yan Liang's defeat and death was finally suppressed temporarily.

Yuan Shao didn't have time to pay attention to who made these arrangements. Pulling off the thin cloth on his head, his eyes widened, his hair rushed to the crown, and his beard shook up, as if he was alive, as strong and resolute as before, but from the chest and abdomen down......

Yuan Shao closed his eyes and sighed, gently covered the thin cloth again, and slowly stood up: "Note, choose a good coffin for Yan Liang, and when you return to Jizhou, you will bury him in person!" ”

"Yes." Frustrated, several soldiers hurriedly came up and carried Yan Liang's body down.

Zhang Nan Gaolan was worried in his heart, the main general Yan Liang died, and it was impossible to seize Xihe, and the eldest prince Yuan Tan was still in Xihe County, and now he was afraid that it would be more auspicious. Since Yan Liang is meritorious and innocent, how can the two of them get out of the relationship?

Gao Ran watched Yan Liang's body being lifted out, "dong dong" twice, and touched the ground with his head heavily: "The last general saw that the opportunity was unknown, and he took the wrong road and killed General Yan Liang, please punish the lord!" ”

He has only been attached to Yuan Shao for a few days, and Yuan Shao's general has not yet recognized everything, so he has suffered such a setback, if he wants to confess the guilt, he is very likely to become the scapegoat, and no one will excuse himself at all. However, Yuan Shao's sad and sympathetic behavior made Gao Ran see a glimmer of hope, and took the opportunity to take the initiative to admit his guilt, which seemed to be tarnished.

Yuan Shao didn't really want to cure anyone's crime, looked at Gao Ran Zhang Nan and couldn't stand on the ground, sighed slightly, and said: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, the two generals got up, but Liu Feng returned to Jinyang?" ”

Gao Ran was stunned, it turned out that Zhang Nan had said it for a long time just now, but the lord didn't listen to it at all. I can't help but be in my heart, Yan Liang's death has made the lord lose his mind so much!

Zhang Nan sweated like rain, his face was pale, but his voice was still very calm: "Back to the lord, it is Liu Feng, he shot General Yan Liang with an arrow alone, inducing our army to chase all the way, and General Yan Liang fell for him!" The guilty general was incompetent, and was captured by Liu Feng, Liu Feng remembered that General Yan Liang was loyal and brave, so he saved the last general from not dying, and ordered the criminal general to escort General Yan Liang's body back. ”

Yuan Shao frowned, slowly returned to the handsome seat and sat down, the three thousand army could not catch a Liu Feng, but it made people happily introduce the ambush circle, Yuan Shao's face flashed a touch of anger, but he saw Zhang Nan hanging an arm, and there was a deep scar on his face, his heart softened, and he said lightly: "Is your injury okay?" ”

Zhang Nan has been serving as Yan Liang's deputy for many years, this time Yan Liang died, he knew that he was ashamed, although he still had a glimmer of hope, but he had already decided that he would inevitably have the possibility of martyrdom, but he suddenly heard that the lord not only did not hold himself responsible, but cared about his injuries, his eyes were red, tears fell down the horse, he trembled forcefully, and choked up: "Thank you Lord Gong cares, the last general, the last general will die is not a pity——"

Yuan Shao stopped and commanded Zhang Nan Gaoran: "You go down and rest!" ”

Zhang Nan Gaolan and the two retreated according to the order. Originally, he was determined to be punished, but he didn't think that the lord would not be held accountable at all, but instead comforted him with kind words and retreated with gratitude.

Seeing that Yuan Shao fell into deep thought again, he was slightly frustrated, and wanted to speak, but finally eased up. Yuan Shao raised his head again, glanced at Xu You, frowned slightly, and said, "Note, Liu Feng has returned, Gong Ze and Xiansi (Yuan Tanzi) are only afraid that something has happened, what countermeasures do you have?" ”

Saying the word "unexpected", Yuan Shao's face was calm, as if he didn't pay attention to it at all, and only focused on the current situation. Fu Zhu hesitated slightly, and said: "Lord, Liu Feng is not a reckless person, this time he can return to help in such a timely manner, it must be Wang Rou who reported the letter to him, and the eldest prince and the prince are in the hands of Wang Rou, so they will not be embarrassed." ”

"It's for the best." Yuan Shao nodded, but he was disappointed that he had no idea.

The trial was a little gloating, it was Guo Tu who insisted that he could persuade Wang Rou, and urged the lord to agree to the eldest prince to go to Xihe with him to persuade him to surrender, but in the end he threw himself into the net. Thinking of Yuan Tan's empty-eyed appearance, he was even more relieved in his heart, and said sarcastically: "Guo Gongze thought that he didn't listen to good words, but he actually mistook the lord's important matter, General Yan Liang died, and the crime lies in Guo Gongze!" Even if Liu Feng doesn't treat him well, I think he still has the face to come back to see the lord! ”

Xin Ping snorted coldly and said, "If General Yan Liang had gone to support earlier, Xihe would have been in my pocket a long time ago, so how could there be such a change today?" Who was it who persuaded the lord to be cold and sympathetic? ”

The judge's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Even if there is no Guo Tu, General Yan Liang's three thousand elite cavalry is enough to capture Wang Rou......"

"Enough!" Yuan Shao was bored in his heart, but he couldn't help them from being verbose, and interrupted the dispute between the two with a loud shout, Guo Tuxin commented on Yuan Tan, but the trial offended Yuan Tan earlier, how Yuan Shao didn't know the trick of this, but he didn't expect that in front of the two armies, they were still arguing, and their faces were flushed with iron and blue, and they were extremely annoyed.

Xin Ju was shocked, and was bowing down to ask for guilt, and Yuan Shao shook his body lightly, and said: "Lord, I don't expect Liu Feng to dare to embarrass the eldest prince and the princess, but Liu Feng is good at trickery, and the lord has to guard against it." And our army has been under Jinyang City for a long time, and has repeatedly lost the opportunity, so we have to think about it early! ”

"In my opinion, where should our army retreat?" Yuan Shao also felt that Frustration was reasonable, although this remark had been mentioned to him a few days ago, but it was only useful today.

Frustrated and about to speak, Xu Yu's eyes lit up, and he said first: "Lord, Liu Feng has returned to help, Shuofang and Shangjun must be empty, time is so prepared, Liu Bei is impossible to pass through with Liu Feng, I expect Liu Bei to be ** also on the way back to Jinyang, or take my Jizhou and Luoyang four counties in the west, and I will definitely not be able to take care of it anymore, if Dong Zhuo attacks from Chang'an, and the general (Yuan Shu) goes north from Nanyang, Liu Bei's father and son do not get along, and the military will inevitably be in chaos!" ”

"Hmm." Yuan Shao nodded, but said hesitantly: "Ziyuan's words are reasonable, but Dong Zhuo has an enmity with my Yuan family, how can he help me?" There are no good generals under the highway, and they are southern foot soldiers, so it is difficult to succeed. ”

Xu Youxu smiled slightly, and said: "Hehe, lord, although Dong Zhuo has a common hatred, but the lord is far away in Jizhou, Liu Bei is close at hand, if Dong Zhuo sits back and sees such a good opportunity and does not take it, I am afraid that it will not be far from death!" ”

"Even if Dong Zhuo will attack Liu Bei, what reason does he have to help my family? Why don't you sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for my family and Liu Bei to lose before making a move, wouldn't it be more effective with half the effort? Judging the match snorted coldly, Xu Yu's idea is stinky enough, in the winter, he asked the southern foot soldiers to fight in the north, and he also wanted to support Dong Zhuo to work for the Yuan family, but he could figure it out!

Xu You didn't bother to discuss with the trial, and Yuan Shao shook lightly, and said, "Lord, please go to Chang'an!" ”

Yuan Shao groaned slightly, nodded, and said, "Ziyuan, what else do you have to discuss?" ”

Xu You thought for a while and said: "Lord, Liu Bei believes in Guan Yu, Guan Yu is in Jinyang, and our army is also difficult to take down for a while, maybe Liu Bei will not be in a hurry to return to help, Tian Yuanhao is full of wisdom, if he makes a plan to save Zhao from Wei Wei, the lord should think about retreating early!" ”

His words coincided with Fu Zhu.

The judge was despised by him, snorted coldly, and said: "With Feng Yuantu here, supplemented by General Wen Chou, Liu Bei wants to surround Wei to save Zhao, but what can he do?" He was good friends with Feng Ji, but both of them were Xu Yu who looked down on him, and he was even more embarrassed in his heart.

Xu You sneered, glanced at the trial as if he was looking at an ignorant child, shook his head disdainfully, and said, "In the opinion of the judge, Liu Bei has such a skill as Yuantu?" Under Yuan Shao's account, in addition to being frustrated, Xu You really didn't pay attention to anyone.

If you refute Xu You's words, it is equivalent to admitting that Feng Ji is comparable to Liu Bei, and where will the lord Yuan Shao be placed? If it's along with Xu You......

Yuan Shao didn't seem to see the two of them arguing, so he only frowned and pondered, and instructed Fu Zhu: "Note, write a letter each in your own hand, and you will send it to Mengde and the highway." ”

"No." Frustrated, he bowed down to receive the order, and the judge realized that he was a little out of shape at this time, and hurriedly retreated.

Fu Zhu thought for a while and said: "Lord, this time it is already a lose-lose situation, if possible, I Jizhou had better get out of the matter!" ”
