Chapter 35: Yuan Shao enters Qingzhou

Three days after Zhang Jie was in Yecheng, Ju Yi came and came to see the lord. Zhang Jie didn't expect them to call themselves lords, it seems that they still understand people and know how to reuse them. You don't have to be polite.

Zhang Jie said: The two of them fought very well in Liyang, and the two of them came to ask the two to go to the plains with me. Ju Yidao: Yuan Shao occupied the plain to fight Gaotang and then enter Qingzhou, now Qingzhou is empty, Yuan Shao stayed in the plain, it is estimated that he is raising grain and grass, or it may be to see the reaction of the lord, Bohai should not have many troops now, if Yuan Shao is afraid that the lord will attack Bohai, then he will not stay in the plain and not leave, it should be a quick return. Instead of standing still. If the lord plans to drive Yuan Shao to Qingzhou, then as long as he garrisons heavy troops in Qinghe, Yuan Shao will understand what the lord means.

Zhang Jie didn't expect Ju Yi to be still a handsome talent, and he could see so much, what a talent.

Nanpi, Gao Shun, Wang Zhi, Huang Zhi, they have been besieging the city for a few days, and the defender Jiang Yiqu is also anxious. In the big tent of the Jizhou Army, Gao Shundao: How many trebuchets are there? Huang Zhidao: With 30 divisions, can we attack the city, Gao Shundao: Attacking the city is the next policy, I am worried that the casualties will be too large.

Wang Zhidao: Nanpi is Yuan Shao's nest will definitely not surrender, sooner or later it will have to be attacked, it is better to attack the city after breakfast tomorrow, Gao Shun nodded, and said, That's the only way. On the second day, the tragic siege began, and before the invention of human thermal weapons, siege battles were very tragic. When the Jizhou army, catapults, and wells launched an attack, rows of crossbowmen put arrows on the city wall to suppress the officers and soldiers defending the city, and the siege soldiers carrying the ladders leaned on the city wall, and the soldiers climbed up like ants. Defending the defenders on the city wall, thunder stones rolling wood, smashing down, it can be seen that the ancient people attacked the city, and the casualties were constantly increasing, which was a test of the psychological quality of the siege commander at this time. It's really a success.

At this time, another group of soldiers climbed the city wall and were driven down, and Gao Shunxin was dripping blood. And the officers and soldiers defending the city were also uncomfortable, and Jiang Yiqu personally went into battle. Seeing that the last batch was driven down again, the morale was declining, Gao Shundao, Mingjin. When the besieging officers and soldiers retreated, they counted the number of people, more than 1,000 were killed, hundreds were wounded, and the defenders of the city were also uncomfortable, they were hit by trebuchets, and many were killed by crossbows. The casualties add up to thousands. The deputy general defending the city said: This will not work, the enemy's bow and crossbow are too strong, and our brothers will be shot as soon as they show their heads, and the enemy army is three times as large as ours. There have been several storms of the city wall today, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to say tomorrow. I wonder when the Lord's reinforcements will arrive? Why don't we break through and go to the plains, I heard that the lord has arrived on the plains.

Jiang Yiqu did not receive Yuan Shao's order and did not dare to break through, and he was also anxious. And Yuan Shao in the plain was also anxious, and received that Gao Shun was besieging Nanpi City, Yuan Shao was afraid that his family would fall into the hands of Zhang Jie, and his sons were all in Nanpi. Guo Tudao: Let's attack Qingzhou tonight and attack Jinan County. Now that Nanpi is surrounded, even if we go to save it, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up, so it's better to let Jiang Yiqu break through. Yuan Shaodao: Ziyuan, what do you think?

Xu Youdao: What the public said is that if we go to save Nanpi now, I don't know if we can catch up, even if we save Nanpi, it will be difficult to hold, Zhang Jie will definitely send heavy troops over, it is better to cross the Yellow River directly and capture Qingzhou, we have nearly 30,000 horses, and Jinan County is at your fingertips.

Okay, immediately send a fast horse to inform Jiang Yiqu of the siege, let's attack Qingzhou tonight, and tell Jiang Yiqu that he can negotiate if necessary, but he must ensure the safety of the soldiers' families. That night, Yuan Shao sent the general Yan Liangwen Chou to lead an army of 20,000 to cross the Yellow River and attack Jinan County. The next day, Gao Shun began to attack the city again, and Jiang Yiqu had not yet received the order to break out. But he's ready to break through.

He knew that he would have to break through sooner or later, and instead of breaking through again when the troops and horses were exhausted, it was better to break through now if he still had troops. When Gao Shun was ready to continue the siege, the south gate was wide open, and Jiang Yiqu led the families of the main officers and soldiers of the Yuan army, including Yuan Shao's wife Liu, nearly 5,000 people broke through to the plain.

Then Gao Shun sent troops to chase after him, but after Jiang left 2,000 people behind, the ancient road was narrow, once blocked, it was difficult to pass, so when Gao Shun came, Yuan Jun broke through and went away.

From this war, it is shown that experience is very important, if Gao Shun ambushes an army on the road first, even if there are only a few hundred people, it will not be this result, and it just so happens that Gao Shun can only be an ordinary general and cannot be a commander.

Originally, Gao Shun only led 700 people to the camp in history, and he was strong in military training, and he was far inferior to Zhang Liao in commanding troops. The reason why Zhang Jie sent him to command the troops was mainly to train him, and he was relieved to hand over the soldiers and horses to him.

When Yan Liangwen Chou invaded Jinan County, Yuan Shao was still in the plains, and he was waiting for Jiang Yiqu to break through and join him. How can the children and wives be relieved that they are all in Nanpi, on the third day, when Jiang Yiqu came to the plain with more than 3,000 Yuan troops and his family, Yuan Shao was finally relieved that the soldiers were gone, and they could not be recruited, and the son was gone, but he couldn't give birth at once, not to mention a lot.

It's always happy to be a family together. A few days later, Yan Liangwen basically took Jinan County, and Yuan Shao began to attack Qingzhou.

When Zhang Jie took, Ju Yi, Zhao Yun, 20,000 soldiers and horses came to the plain, just arrived in the territory of Qinghe, and reported that Yuan Shao had already sent troops to Jinan County, Qingzhou, Zhang Jie was not in a hurry, knowing that Yuan Shao was going to capture Qingzhou. Dao: Let's rest in Qinghe first, we are not in a hurry, and we can't reach Yuan Shao to Qingzhou for the time being. After entering the Qinghe, Zhang Jie's soldiers and horses did not enter the city, because in Qinghe, Zhang Jie originally had heavy troops, in addition to the 3,000 soldiers and horses brought by Huang Zhi to join Gao Shun, there were 7,000 men and horses, Zhang Jie deployed heavy troops on the front line of Qinghe before discussing Dong, which was to prevent Bohai Yuan Shao from developing to the central part of Jizhou.

Now Yuan Shao has crossed the south bank of the Yellow River, and there is no need to station so many soldiers in Qinghe, Zhang Jie took some personal soldiers such as Dian Wei Zhao Yun and entered the city to go to the Taishou Mansion, after entering the city, Zhang Jie was very relieved to see that the city was not affected by the war, and the shops along the street were dazzling. It seems that the emphasis on business is obvious to the development of Jizhou, too shou Huang An received Zhang Jie, Huang An is an old man who is nearly sixty years old, Zhang Jie asked him to introduce the livelihood of the people in Qinghe, and asked whether some land rents are only collected 30%. In fact, these Zhang Jie generally don't ask.

But many of the officials below have never seen Zhang Jie, but they only know that Zhang Jie loves the people, but he also likes to kill people and corrupt officials. He is never soft. Seeing that Zhang Jie was so good at talking, he was relieved. After staying in Qinghe for two days, he rushed to the plain, and at this time Yuan Shao had already left the plain for Jinan Licheng. Yuan Shao looted the plains, and although he did not enter the house to rob it, he took all the money and grain from the treasury. Entering the plain, Gao Shun also led Wang Zhi, Huang Zhi, and others to see Zhang Jie, Gao Shun said: The lord and Shun are guilty, Nanpi fought badly in the first battle, killed and injured 2,000 brothers, and let Jiang Yiqu break through. Although Zhang Jie was very angry in his heart, Gao Shun followed him from the beginning.

Zhang Jie said: Okay, I know everything, although Jiang Yiqu and them were not left, they still took Nanpi, how is Bohai now? Gao Shundao: Yuan's army retreated, most of the other counties surrendered, and at present, Shun has arranged for someone to receive it, which should be soon.

Plains Taishou Mansion Hall. Zhang Jie sat down and said, now that Yuan Shao has gone to Qingzhou, he will not attack Jizhou for the time being, but after he develops Qingzhou, he is likely to attack Jizhou again, so we have to adjust the deployment of troops.

Lead, I will leave 10,000 horses in the plain, I will show you as the commander of the plain to command all the soldiers and horses in the plain, I hope you will guard the plain well and prevent Yuan Shao from re-entering Jizhou. He replied: No! Thank you for your trust.

Wang Zhi, I will leave you 10,000 soldiers and horses for you as the captain of Bohai, and you will guard Bohai for me. Huang Zhi, you give Wang Zhi as a deputy. Promise!

Although I want you to guard Bohai, you also have to send 3,000 soldiers to Leling, the border between Leling County and Qingzhou, I just don't send heavy troops to Leling because I don't want to put too much pressure on Yuan Shao to let him go to Qingzhou. He will return to Yecheng tomorrow, Wang Zhi, lead the move, you must remember to strictly enforce military discipline, and you must not let the garrison disturb the people. Promise!
