Chapter 353: Tuogu
In the city, in Yuan Shao's room, Yuan Shao called Yuan Tan and his father and son to have a secret talk.
Yuan Shaodao: Tan'er, I'm afraid Tancheng won't be able to keep it. Because my father plans to let you break out, you will first go back to Juxian County (now Changle, Shandong). Then gather tens of thousands of horses in Qingzhou. But you first have to send your mother, aunt, and other family members to Donglaihuang County (Yantai area).
Tan Er, I received a report a few days ago that at present, Zhang Jie's division crossed the Yellow River from Jizhou to attack Jinan. The coach is Zhang Jie's military advisor. You should know that there are tens of thousands of recruits in Qingzhou at present, and it is difficult to stop it.
At present, Xianyi (Yuan Xi) and Xianfu (Yuan Shang) are both in Jinan. For the father, I fear that they are not a match for frustration.
When you reach the North Sea, withdraw them as well. Sent together to Donglai. If this is not possible, you will take the boat with your family and go to Hanzhong by sea.
Yuan Tan said: Father, things haven't developed to that point yet! We still have the strength to fight.
Besides, didn't Ma Teng Han Sui agree to send troops to Luoyang? I think they may have arrived in Luoyang, maybe Zhang Jie will withdraw his troops soon!
Ay! Tan Er, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others are not Zhang Jie's opponents, and Zhang Jie has Hangu Guan in his hands. There is Li Dao in Chang'an, and Ma Teng is afraid that it will be difficult to reach Luoyang for a while. Even if you enter Luoyang, you can only take the road of Hedong.
But in the current situation, even if Zhang Jie receives Ma Teng's troops to Luoyang, he will not withdraw his troops. He will transfer some troops and horses from the state to go around.
We can't put our hopes in others. Moreover, Ma Teng Han Sui is not in harmony with his face and heart, and he is as stupid as a pig. How can it be Zhang Jie's opponent?
Tan Er, when you go to Beihai, if Zhang Jie besieges the city, you can follow the rules. If you can't do anything, go to Hanzhong immediately.
Zhang Jie doesn't have a navy, it's safe for you to go south by sea. When you arrive at Wu County, you will enter the Yangtze River to the west, and then go to Xiakou, and from Xiakou to Hanshui and go directly to Hanzhong. It's a long way to go.
Jiangdong Sun Ce is bold, (I don't know that Sun Ce is dead) Although he had an unpleasant relationship with Sun Wentai as a father back then, he shouldn't embarrass you.
When I arrived at Xiakou, it was the territory of Jingzhou. Liu Biao has always been good friends with his father, and he will not embarrass you. Remember not to be high. You have to learn to be patient. When you get to Hanzhong, give this letter to Cao Cao, and he will treat you well. Tell Xianfu that they want to keep a low profile. Do not participate in political affairs. Just be a common man! On the way to Hanzhong, you can't guard too much, so as not to make Sun Ce and others suspicious.
After speaking, he handed a letter to Yuan Tan.
Remember to protect your younger siblings. Honor your mother and aunt.
Father, the child is reluctant to leave his father, so please ask his father to go to Hanzhong, right? The boy is willing to stay and defend the city! Yuan Tan said.
Tan'er, I have been friends with Cao Cao since I was a child, you wait to take refuge, and Cao Cao will definitely be good on your behalf. But not being a father. Besides, as a father, he didn't have the face to see Meng De.
Come on, please Guo Tu and Wen Chou come over. Yuan Shao shouted.
After a while, Guo Tu and Wen Chou arrived.
I've seen the lord!
Public rules, Ziliang (text ugly characters). Shao asked you two to come here because of an important matter, please give it to the two of you.
The lord asks for a split payment. Guo Tudao.
Don't look at Yuan Shao, who is usually a little confused. But who is most loyal to him, he is actually very clear. Xu You is stronger than Guo Tu in terms of resourcefulness. But in terms of loyalty, Guo Tu is definitely a die-hard loyalist, in history, Guo Tu followed Yuan Tan, and after the defeat and refused to surrender, he was killed by Cao Cao. But Xu Yu is a cartilage boy. not only took the initiative to find Cao Cao to surrender to the enemy, but also offered a plan to burn the black nest.
Suddenly, Yuan Shao knelt on his knees and said: Now that Tancheng is in danger, Shao plans to entrust Tan Er and his family to the two of them, and ask the two to protect them and go to Hanzhong.
The two of them were shocked, and immediately helped Yuan Shao up, and said: Lord, don't do this. Now that the war is not going well, if the lord asks the prince to withdraw first, we will respect our own orders.
Yuan Shao played the emotional card. Dao: The two of you have been with me for many years, and they are not only subordinates, but also teachers and friends. Yuan implored the two of them to agree. Both of them are loyal to Yuan Shao, seeing Yuan Shao's situation, this is to support the orphan!
Guo Tu immediately knelt down and said: Tu has no talent and young virtue, but the winner takes a fancy to him, and he has nothing to repay, Tu swears to the sky, he must protect his son, if he has a different heart, he will die under the sword and will not be resurrected in the past life.
Wen Chou also knelt down and said: I also swear to protect my son to the death, if there is a change, I will be like this. After speaking, tear your clothes hard and tear off a large piece!
Tan'er, in the future, the prince will be your father. Yuan Shaodao.
Yes! The lord can't. Guo Tudao!
I didn't expect Yuan Tan to climb along the bar! Immediately said: Meet the father!
Guo Jiadao: Son, please get up, Tushi doesn't dare to be.
Yuan Shaodao: Tan Er has something to do in the future, listen more to the public rules and Ziliang, and don't be impulsive.
Promise!
Ziliang, Gongzhi, you will break through tonight, but don't alarm everyone, so as not to disturb the morale of the army.
Guo Tu, Wen Chou knew that this might be the last time he saw Yuan Shao, maybe it was goodbye.
The two knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yuan Shao three times before leaving Yuan Shao's room.
At night, Wen Chou led 3,000 cavalry from the north gate and withdrew to Qingzhou. And it did not alarm the people in the city. Only a small percentage of people know.
When Yuan Tan broke through from the north gate, in fact, Zhang Jie didn't plan to besiege the city at all, he also hoped that Yuan Shao could break through, so he besieged three missing one. Because no matter which city Yuan Shao withdrew from Xuzhou, Tancheng was strong and difficult to attack.
Zhang Jie was sleeping, and his own soldiers came to report that there was a cavalry in the city heading to the north gate. The number of people is about 3,000!
Zhang Jie thought to himself, what does Yuan Shao mean by this? If you want to retreat and escape, why take 3,000 people to evacuate! There are 30,000 defenders in the city, even if there are a lot of casualties in the past few days, but after all, it is impossible for the defending side to have more casualties than on its own side.
Even if 3,000 were taken away, at least there would be more than 20,000 people in the city. Could it be that Yuan Shao left them alone?
It's impossible! Throwing more than 20,000 people as prisoners is not such a way to throw them away! If you want to evacuate, you should evacuate most of the people, and it is the best policy to leave two or three thousand people to defend the city and delay the time.
Is it that he intends to use these 3,000 cavalry to wander outside and harass himself to attack the city? But what's the use of 3,000 people outside, you can transfer 10,000 cavalry to surround the nest at any time. Yuan Shao will not fail to understand this truth.
Pass my orders and let the brothers on duty at night guard the camp. The rest will sleep tomorrow morning.
Promise!
The next morning, Zhang Jie rode a horse to the city wall to take a look, only to see that the corpse under the city wall had been cleaned up, but the blood stains on the ground were still shocking.
When Zhang Jie came to the north gate, he happened to see Yuan Shao also standing on the city tower, and Zhang Jie wanted to persuade Yuan Shao to surrender again.
But when I thought of Yuan Shao's words. "If the people of the world come to persuade me to surrender, let it be spared!" "If you want to say it, it's an insult to me."
Ay! It seems that the battle will only be known until the last moment. If Yuan Shao really surrendered, Zhang Jie would look down on him.
Zhang Jie returned to the camp and called all the civil and military generals.
Last night, I reported that Yuan Shao had sent 3,000 cavalry out of the city. Wen and you talk about Yuan Shao, what does this mean? Take a look at the latest chapters of "Mr. Storyteller of the Three Kingdoms" and read it for free for the first time.
