However, night was approaching, and in order to prevent attacks, neither army dared to go out lightly to clean up the battlefield. Soon at night, there was a whirring wind blowing on the battlefield, like a ghost crying wolf, the atmosphere was gloomy and terrible, and many hungry wolves on the periphery of the battlefield smelled blood and rushed to come, but they seemed to be frightened by this gloomy atmosphere, and once they approached, they all screamed in horror and fled away.

At the same time, the two armies counted the casualties one after another. In this battle, more than 20 soldiers of Yuan Shao's army were killed, and the general Wen Chou was seriously injured, and more than thousands of soldiers were killed or wounded. Speaking of which, we have to thank Tian Feng for his temporary deployment and successfully turned the tide, otherwise if he was pounced on by Gongsun Zhan's army at that time, I am afraid that Yuan Shao's army would lose more than half!

As for Gongsun Zhan's army, there were more than 30 soldiers killed in battle, Shangjiang Yan Gang was just killed by Ju Yi, and his deployment was damaged, and a little statistics showed that there were more than 10,000 thousands, which can be described as heavy casualties!

Of course, compared with the loss of Gongsun Zhanjun, Yuan Shaojun can be regarded as a complete victory.

At this moment, in the tiger tent of Yuan Shaojun's camp, Yuan Shao was overjoyed and excited, and laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha~~!! I think I've been on the battlefield for more than ten years, and I haven't experienced the danger of today's battle!! Fortunately, our army was able to turn defeat into victory in the end, and it was really happy to break the Youzhou army of Gongsun Xiaoer~~!! This is all thanks to the efforts of all the generals and the military, and I Yuan Benchu thanked me here~~!! After saying that, Yuan Shao's face was shocked, and he arched his hand solemnly, and bowed and thanked the two strategists and generals. When all the civil and military officers saw it, they hurriedly got up and saluted back, and shouted in unison: "The lord praises falsely, this is a matter of subordinate duties, and I dare not take credit!" ”

"Hahaha~~! Good~~!! Meritorious but not greedy, I Yuan Benchu was fortunate to have the assistance of all the talented heroes, why worry that the great cause of the world cannot succeed!? Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this, so he taught everyone to sit down.

At this time, his eldest son Yuan Tan arched his hand and said: "I think today's battle is all thanks to Daddy's proper command!" This miracle can happen! The child only hopes to be by his father's side in the future, learn one or two, and expand his power for his father in the future and promote the prestige of my Yuan family! ”

As soon as Yuan Tan said this, his brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were not left behind, and they said one after another.

"Big brother is right! Daddy is the first prince in the world, no one in the world is comparable, the child only hates to find a little bit of the true inheritance of his father, and he is afraid of losing his father's face in the future!! ”

"Daddy! Although I am young, Yuan Shang, my ambition is not short! After this battle, the child knows that he is inadequate, and only hopes to learn more in the future and help his father in the future! ”

Yuan Shao's three sons, Yuan Tan is mediocre and easy to dry, Yuan Xi is leisurely and indecisive, only Yuan Shang is young and talented, and he is handsome, quite a bit of Yuan Shao's style back then. Yuan Shao loved it in his heart, but he was afraid of the order of the young and the young, and the heirs competed with each other, so he had not decided on the position of the heir for a long time.

Now, as soon as Yuan Shao listened to the speeches of his three sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi could only pat him on the back, but their determination was insufficient, only Yuan Shang's words were quite in line with Yuan Shao's wishes. Yuan Shao knew it in his heart, but he didn't say it, and said with a deep face: "The glory of being a father today is all due to the efforts of his subordinates, not for his father." In the future, the three of them should ask them for advice and learning, and strive for self-improvement, and if they can become a great tool, they will be happy for their father. ”

As soon as Yuan Shao's words came out, Yuan Shang reacted first, and hurriedly bowed respectfully to the Yuan family's strategists and generals on the left and right. When everyone saw this, they were also busy returning the gift. Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi couldn't help but change their complexions, and they were also anxious to salute, but they were a little less sincere than Yuan Shang. Yuan Shao secretly observed, looked at all the qiē in his eyes, or was most satisfied with the third son Yuan Shang, so he taught the third son to return to the seat, and then began to reward today's meritorious people, among which Zhang Jaw and Ju Yi fought bravely, broke the strong enemy, and Ju Yi even killed the enemy Jiang Yangang. Yuan Shao then moved his jaw to Shang Yong Zhonglang General, rewarded 300 taels of gold, 200 silk brocade, a treasure blade, and 300 steel blades. Zhang Jaw thanked him first. Immediately, Yuan Shao moved Ju Yi to be the first lieutenant, and was rewarded with 300 taels of gold, 500 silk brocade, 1 treasure armor, and 300 good bows. Ju Yi couldn't help but be shocked and thanked him.

Immediately, Yuan Shao rewarded Tian Feng and Frustration respectively. Tian Feng was transferred to the battle, so that the army could turn the tide, and the credit was the greatest, and Yuan Shao moved him to the Marquis of Mouwu and received 1,200 households. Tian Feng thanked him for his joy. As for the frustration, he did not mess up in the face of danger, assisted Tian Feng to stabilize the army, and got a bounty of 100 taels and 100 taels of silk. Frustration is also a matter of satisfaction.

As for the rest of the soldiers, Yuan Shao also rewarded them together, and after everyone thanked them, they returned to their seats and sat down. As for Wen Chou, although he was not effective in combat, he dared to fight with the enemy, and even almost killed Liu Bei, and his courage was commendable, so he overwhelmed it. Everyone also knew that Yuan Shao regarded Wen Chou as a confidant, so he didn't make much noise.

After the reward was completed, Yuan Shao's expression tightened, and he said solemnly: "Although we can break Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou army today, the enemy still has nearly 30,000 troops, which should not be underestimated. At the same time, you have also seen that there are many fierce generals in the other army. That Guan and Zhang Zhiyong are not even inferior to Wen Chou, and today it is said that there is a small general, who is extremely active, not only rescued Liu Bei from Wen Chou's hands, but also resisted Jun Yi, such a person, why is it unheard of? ”

As soon as Yuan Shao's voice fell, his face froze, and he got up and replied: "Back to the lord, this son's name is Zhao Yun, the word Zilong, and he is from Changshan. He joined our army back then, but then he was humble and thought that there was no way to be promoted, so he switched to the command of Gongsun Zhan. ”

In order not to offend Yuan Shao, Zhang Jaw did not tell Zhao Yun the real reason for leaving. As soon as Zhang Jaw said this, Yuan Shao's face couldn't help but change, and he exclaimed in some surprise: "This son actually joined the army in my Hebei army!?" ”

Immediately, Yuan Shao quickly became excited again, and said hurriedly: "That's the case, I can repair a secret letter to pass on to him, as long as he is willing to defect, I will make him a captain, and I can lead an army alone!" ”

When Zhang Jaw heard this, he thought of Zhao Yun's indignant expression when he persuaded Zhao Yun to surrender to the Hebei Army today, and knew that it was absolutely impossible for Zhao Yun to rejoin, but he didn't want to hit Yuan Shao, and he didn't know how to agree all of a sudden.

Tian Feng on the side looked at it silently, but replied for Zhang Jaw: "Lord, my subordinates think that this son is capricious, even if he is willing to surrender, he is afraid that it is a plan, and it is not credible." What's more, now that the war is raging, it is better not to act rashly just in case. ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and then thought that Tian Feng was right, so he nodded helplessly and regretfully. Seeing that Yuan Shao was a little lost, a cadre of civil and military officers hurriedly appeased him, saying that the Hebei army was full of talents, and the four major think tanks of Wenmou (Tian, Fu, Xu, and Trial), Wu was supported by the four pillars of the court, and there was not much more Zhao Yun than him, and a lot less Zhao Yun than him.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he cheered up a little, so he looked at everyone and asked, "Now that Gongsun Chan has not been defeated, I don't know what your plan is?" ”

As soon as Yuan Shao's words came out, all the civil and military cadres rushed to answer, and they all persuaded Yuan Shao to take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop. Only Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Zhang Jaw, Ju Yi, and Yuan Shang were silent.

Yuan Shao saw it in his eyes, thinking that these people were all calm, but of course he also knew that Yuan Shang was just secretly observing and learning.

When asked about the strategy of breaking the enemy, Yuan Shao of course first thought of the two 'think tanks' present, raised his hand suddenly, and after stopping everyone, he cast a look at Tian and Fu. As soon as everyone was drunk by Yuan Shao, they immediately stopped their mouths, and they also looked at Tian and Fu.

Tian Feng smiled, but he didn't say anything at first, but the two had a very good relationship, he made a contribution before, and now he intended to give in, of course, Tian Feng also wanted to see if he thought of it with himself again this time.

After smiling faintly, he immediately stood up, bowed his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Back to the lord, I thought that the enemy army had many fierce generals, and our army has now injured General Wen. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals couldn't help but show their indignation. Zhang Jaw and Ju Yi didn't say much, in fact, they both understood that Fu Zhu was polite. Now Gongsun Zhan's army, Zhang, and Zhao are peerless tiger generals with invincible bravery, and if they want to break through strongly, Zhang and Ju do not have this confidence.

Frustrated, he ignored the change in the expressions of the congregation generals, and then said: "But the ministers have a plan, but they can go to Guan and Zhang first, and then go to Zhao Yun, and then they will break Gongsun Zhan's army, which is not a difficult matter!" ”

Frustrated, Yuan Shao was shocked by what he said, and he couldn't help shouting excitedly: "What is the plan, Guangping come quickly!" ”

"It's for two words, and 'separation' is also!" He shouted in frustration. Tian Feng on the side couldn't help laughing and said, "Hahahaha, it can really be said that the hero sees something like that!" Guangping also thought of it with me this time! ”

Tian Feng suddenly laughed, and everyone couldn't help but change their faces, what Tian Feng's strength was, they were obvious to all, and now listening to Tian Feng's strategy, it seemed to be the same as that of Frustration, and they couldn't help but have more confidence in Frustration's strategy.

Frustrated, he sank, and after an 'oh' sound, he looked at Tian Feng and asked with some tentative taste: "That's the case, I want to hear what Yuan Hao has to say." ”

Tian Feng listened to the frustration that he wanted to test himself, and he was not to be outdone, so he got up, bowed to Yuan Shao and the others first, and then said: "Gongsun Zhan is a good-faced and selfish person, and he is extremely showy, and the Liu Bei brothers have been active many times in today's battle, I am afraid that Gongsun Chan is secretly a little jealous." As for Liu Bei, he also desperately wants the world to recognize him as the queen of the Han family, the lord is the nobleman of the current family, and he has his own friendship. In fact, if the war starts tomorrow, why don't the lord use the truce as an excuse to summon Liu Bei to the front of the battle to say a word or two. Then Liu Bei is kind and good-hearted, and he will definitely go. Seeing that Liu Bei was enthusiastic, Gongsun Zhan was suspicious, and he would definitely teach him to observe secretly. At that time, the lord will only talk about the old feelings, not about peace talks, and you can talk about it for as long as you can, and you can be as affectionate as you want. Not only to make Gongsun Chan suspicious, but it is best to make the Youzhou army suspicious! At that time, I will wait and use the excuse that the time is not early, and I will be in a hurry to recall the lord. And once Liu Bei goes back, maybe he will be ambushed by that Gongsun Zhan, and he will die! Even if Liu Bei was fortunate enough to escape for his life, Guan and Zhang would no longer be able to stay in the Youzhou army, and they would definitely leave with Liu Bei. ”
