"What? Fifty thousand? ”

Hearing that Lu Zhuo led an army of 50,000 people and rushed to the boundary bridge on his back, Yuan Shao was so excited that he almost lost his temper, he clenched his fists hard: "Yuan Tu, you once said that Lu Zhuo is my lucky general, this is true, although Lu Zhuo is not under my account, but he has helped me get out of trouble repeatedly, this time, I thought he could get together 20,000 people would be good, but I didn't expect that he would send 50,000 troops, it is really my timely rain." ”

It was rare to be so excited, Yuan Shao immediately ordered someone to set up a banquet and drank it well.

Just as he was on the rise, Guo Tu walked in, and when he saw Feng Jizheng and Yuan Shao toasting each other, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Guo Tu's eyes.

And this is a trouble that Yuan Shao will have to face in the future.

Although, the strategists around him are extraordinary, and they can all be independent, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xu You, Xin Ping...... Yuan Shao's think tank, it can be said that he is proud of the world, and he is not inferior to Cao Cao.

However, when there are too many people, there will naturally be chaos, and with so many strategists, there will inevitably be factional disputes between gangs, some for 'competition for favor', some jealous, and some rejection of dissidents......

If you change the princes of any party, this situation is inevitable, but the crux of the problem is that Yuan Shao, the lord of Jizhou and the powerful decision-maker, has no opinion, and does not know how to balance the relationship between many strategists.

The wall and the house collapsed, not necessarily because of external forces!

In the past, there was less territory, fewer strategists, and fewer corresponding troubles, and there was only one discipline around him, and Yuan Shao's indecisive and indecisive shortcomings were not obvious, but now, there are more strategists below, and every time they discuss major military affairs, you say a word, I say a word, each insists on seeing each other, and the fight is endless, Yuan Shao will inevitably have a lot of headaches.

Generally speaking, the strategists around Yuan Shao are divided into three groups, the first is Yuan Shao's team at the beginning, when he was the Taishou in Bohai, Feng Ji and these people were the most relied on, and they were also the most loyal to Yuan Shao, and similarly, they were also the most hostile to the other two factions.

Second, the Nanyang faction represented by Xu Youguo Tu, and third, the Jizhou faction headed by Tian Fengfu.

The factional dispute is not just a big problem in front of Yuan Shao, let's just say that Liu Bei in the Three Kingdoms, after taking Hanzhong and seizing Xichuan, was also stumped by this problem, on one side is the Jingzhou faction, on the other hand is the Yizhou faction, especially Li Yan, who is at odds with Liu Bei face-to-face, and there is no shortage of chaos.

Dong Zhuo, who dominated the world and dominated the dynasty before, is also fighting among the factions around him all the time, Xu Rong of the Luoyang department, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others' Xiliang system, as well as Lu Bu's merger and state system, if it is not handled properly, it will lead to conflicts, and between Lu Bu and Liu Bei, it was because Lu Bu was jealous that Liu Guanzhang was more 'favored' than him, which led to the disaster of killing.

Although Lu Bu escaped from Luoyang by luck, so far, he has also suffered a great loss of vitality and has to accept the fate of the tiger falling to Pingyang.

"Gongzhi, you're here, come here, take a seat."

Yuan Shao saw Guo Tu and hurriedly beckoned to him, but Guo Tu shook his head, "Lord, I still don't sit, Yuan Tu sent an envoy to Xuzhou, helped the lord invite reinforcements, and made a miraculous achievement, the lord naturally wants to reward him, he is afraid of his humble duties, this banquet can not afford it, this time I came, I want to tell the lord that I have successfully infiltrated Dongshanwei into Luoyang, and soon, the rumors of Liu Bei's vain attempt to usurp will spread all over the streets and alleys of Kyoto." ”

Saying that, Guo Tu straightened his chest, glanced at Feng Ji proudly, and said, "Don't think that only you can do it, and I, Guo Tu, will not lose to you." ”

Guo Tu, in addition to being the strategist next to Yuan Shao, also has another layer of mysterious identity - the leader of Dongshanwei!

Now, the spy reports of the princes of all parties have taken shape, and the battles and contests between each other have gradually kicked off.

Guo Tu was in charge of Dongshanwei, Guo Jia was in charge of the Jing'an Division, Jian Yong was in charge of the Military Discussion Division, and Li Ru was in charge of the Military Aircraft Department.

This battlefield is silent, listen to the thunder in the silence! Even in the daytime, those meticulous spy guards are still ghosts of the night that are nowhere to be found.

They are ubiquitous and pervasive, and their role can be large or small, and can even affect the course of a war.

Boundary Bridge.

Yuan Jun and Beiping Army held each other here, caught in a tug-of-war that became more and more stalemate, although Yuan Shao's soldiers were strong and strong, but he had to be distracted by other concerns, Zhang Yan in the area of Changshan Zhongshan was eyeing the tiger, constantly sending troops to attack and harass, and the Yellow River crossing in the south, Yuan Shao also had to guard against Liu Bei who came back again.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses who stayed at the boundary bridge to resist Gongsun Zhan were less than 40,000 people, and countless casualties were killed and wounded for days.

The two fought day after day, and there was no time to catch their breath, the offensive of the Beiping Army was like a storm, day and night, and Gongsun Chan had already obtained Liu Bei's promise, and the two secretly formed an alliance to discuss the joint division of Jizhou, and Gongsun Chan was naturally high and ambitious.

It's just that Liu Bei has been standing still, always shirking the situation between the DPRK and China on the grounds that the situation between the DPRK and China is unstable, and he has not yet seen him send troops, which makes Gongsun Chan very dissatisfied.

Gongsun Chan is a rough man, and he is not good at intrigue and strategy, how did he know that from the beginning, he was calculated by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, and he had been watching coldly from the sidelines, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan Zhang Yan, the more the three of them fought, the more they couldn't hold each other, the happier Liu Bei was.

Once the consumption of the three families is too bad, Liu Bei will send troops on a large scale and completely take Jizhou into his own hands, even Zhang Yan and Gongsun Zan of Montenegro, he didn't want to let go.

Liu Bei's abacus, the jingle sounded, Jizhou is a muddy water, and others can't intervene if they want to.

In Liu Bei's view, Xuzhou Lu Zhuo did not have many soldiers and horses, and the situation in the territory was unstable, so there was no time to send troops; Yanzhou Cao Cao was too busy to take care of himself, and he was even more powerless, and Liu He of Youzhou was just a yellow-toothed child, with a cowardly temperament, and there was nothing to worry about, and the situation in the entire northern land was under Liu Bei's control.

However, he never expected that Lu Zhuo not only dared to send troops, but also had an amazing handwriting.

There was still a long way to go from the boundary bridge, so Lu Zhuo sent scouts early to report the battle situation of the boundary bridge at any time, and asked Zhang He to inform Xu Huang of his movements.

Zhang He and Xu Huang learned that Lu Zhuo was coming, and the two of them were immediately in good spirits, Zhang He estimated the date of the arrival of Lu Zhuo's vanguard, and secretly designed to lure the enemy deep and take Gongsun Chan by surprise.

Lu Zhuo received the news from the scouts, and decisively led more than 10,000 vanguard elites to rush to the Lei Feng Valley north of the boundary bridge to set up an ambush.

On this day, Gongsun Zan led the army to attack again, the Beiping army was like a wolf and a tiger, the offensive was like a tide, Zhang He Xu Huang hurriedly resisted for a while, pretending not to resist, everyone threw away their armor and retreated to Lei Feng Valley in embarrassment.
