Guo Tu saw that the judge said this, so he had to agree, after all, Yuan Shang represented the Yuan family, and leaving Yuan Shang in Jizhou shows that Yuan Shao attaches great importance to Yuan Shang, and maybe Yuan Shao will determine the identity of Yuan Shang's heir in the next step.

After all these years of events, Guo Tu has become more cautious, if Yuan Tan can become the lord of Jizhou, it is good news for him, if Yuan Tan can not become the lord of Jizhou, he will not have a bad relationship with Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang is quite loved by Yuan Shao, and Yuan Tan's strength is not weak, now Yuan Tan has Qingzhou in his hands, and he has the capital to confront Yuan Shang, sometimes Guo Tu is also difficult to understand Yuan Shao's true thoughts, if he really intends to make Yuan Shang the heir, why let Yuan Tan guard in Qingzhou, aren't you afraid that when Yuan Shang inherits Jizhou in the future, Yuan Tan will make a hindrance.

After Yuan Shang listened to the rhetoric of the trial, he immediately ordered Feng Li, the general of Jizhou, to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to Julu County to sweep away the thieves.

Guo Tu let out a long sigh and said no more, he knew that the current situation was no longer something he could change.

Feng Li is also a well-known general in the Jizhou army, and after receiving the order, he immediately ordered the elite soldiers and sent them to Julu, and the army escorted dozens of thunderbolts and bed crossbows, ready to teach the thieves in Julu County a cruel lesson.

Julu is located in the most central area of Jizhou, close to Wei County, once Julu County is in turmoil, it will have a big impact on Wei County, and the trial may not be as good as Guo Tu in terms of strategy, but at this point it is still relatively clear that Wei County must be stable at this time, not only that, but the Jizhou army will also break the rebels who occupy Julu County as quickly as possible.

Not only did Feng Li lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack Julu, but even Guo Yuan, who was in Zhongshan, received an order to send troops to attack Julu and rebels.

Guo Yuan did not dare to disobey the order after receiving the order, and ordered the deputy general to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to gallop to aid the Jizhou army.

Guo Jia, who has been paying attention to the movement of soldiers and horses in Jizhou, immediately sent Chen Zhi to lead the vanguard army and rushed to Zhongshan, this time Zhang Yan's shot was a signal for the Youzhou army to attack, only by letting the chaos in Jizhou happen, the Youzhou army could take advantage of the opportunity, whether it was the transfer of soldiers and horses in Hejian or Zhongshan this time, he would not let go of such an opportunity.

Of course, how long Zhang Yan can hold out in the attack of the Jizhou army is also crucial for the Youzhou army, Guo Jia has confidence in Zhang Yan, as the commander of the Montenegrin army that year, Zhang Yan has something extraordinary, if it was not for Yang Feng's betrayal last time, even if the number of the Jizhou army is doubled, it will be difficult to defeat the Montenegrin army.

Chen Zhi led 3,000 strong crossbow troops and 2,000 Xianbei cavalry towards Zhongshan.

The people of Jizhou are not loyal to Yuan Shao, but they will definitely not support the arrival of the Youzhou army, Youzhou is under the rule of Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's treatment of the family is well known, and no one wants to become an existence in the hands of Lu Bu.

At this time, most of the soldiers and horses in Guo Yuan's hands gathered in Lunu, as the seat of Zhongshan, Lunu's defense was naturally not comparable to ordinary cities.

When Chen Zhi led the army to appear outside the city of Guangchang, it caused a lot of turmoil in the city, Guangchang is only a small city in Zhongshan, because it is close to Youzhou, there are not many people and defenders in the city, as for the family in the city, but everything that has something to do with it, has long left here, once the Youzhou army attacks Jizhou, Guangchang is the first to bear the brunt.

Guangchang Ling trembled and climbed to the top of the city, and after seeing the majestic Youzhou army outside the city, his face turned pale.

Tao Yuan, the main general of the army, persuaded: "My lord, now the defenders in the city are only a thousand people, this is the vanguard of the Youzhou army, if it resists, I am afraid that the soldiers and civilians in the city will suffer, if you open the city gate to welcome the Youzhou army into the city, and the adults do not lose their merits, they can also protect the soldiers and civilians in the city, waiting for the coming day." ”

Guangchang Ling nodded after being silent for a long time, but anyone who can become a city order is not a simple person, although Guangchang is close to Youzhou, there are still many people who are willing to do the position of Guangchang Ling.

Chen Zhi was extremely excited to capture Guangchang without bloodshed, and after pacifying the officials in the city, he left 300 soldiers behind, and then continued to advance towards Lunu.

Guo Yuan gathered most of Zhongshan's soldiers and horses in Lunu, so that the defenses in various places were relatively weak, first of all, there was an unequal number of people, Chen Zhi had more than 4,000 people in his hands, but the defenders of the rest of the cities in Zhongshan ranged from 300 to 500, which was much worse in momentum.

This also led to the first reaction of some city guards when they saw the arrival of the Youzhou army was to open the city gate and choose to surrender.

Within half a month, the news of the vanguard of the Youzhou army even under the three cities of Zhongshan spread in Jizhou, which shook Jizhou, although the vanguard is the elite of an army, but this is a siege of the city, not a field battle, and the vanguard army in the hands of Chen is only more than 4,000 people, such a vanguard, stunned after only one battle to capture the three cities.

It was the first battle after the Youzhou army entered Zhongshan, the defenders of Tang County led thousands of crossbowmen to Chen Zhi to break directly, and after shooting on the spot, the defenders of Wangdu saw the arrival of the Youzhou army and directly chose to surrender, in the face of such an enemy, they could not raise their morale.

The first to bear the brunt is Lunu, after the Youzhou army occupies Wangdu, it can send troops to Lunu, whether the Youzhou army is strong or not, the family in the city is not clear, but the record of the Youzhou army is there at this time, the Jizhou army has always been strong in the eyes of the family, compared to their neighbor Youzhou army is a little weak, mainly because Yuan Shao led the Jizhou army to break the Youzhou army, and even Gongsun Zan died in the hands of Yuan Shao.

Now the situation is quietly changing, the land of the three cities has been broken one after another, so that the hearts of the people in Lunu City are a little fluctuating, and many families even want to take refuge in Wei County, in any case, Wei County is the center of Jizhou, which can bring them enough security.

Guo Yuan's brows were furrowed, the situation on the battlefield gave him an ominous premonition, there was a thief in Julu County, and then the Youzhou army attacked Zhongshan, and he knew very well what the rest of the defenders in Zhongshan were, which was also Guo Yuan's order to gather Zhongshan's strength, so that he did not expect, and the rest of the city's defenders directly chose to surrender without spineless when they faced the Youzhou army.

After the vanguard army arrived in Zhongshan, the arrival of the Youzhou army would not be too far, Guo Yuan did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Jizhou for help.

After the news of the Youzhou army's attack on Zhongshan reached Wei County, Wei County was shaken, at this time, most of the soldiers and horses of the Jizhou army were in Huguan, and the interior of Jizhou was empty.
