Chapter 272: It's hard to decide

Although the Yanyun Battalion under Gan Ning was formed after Liu Yi defeated Gongsun Zhan, with Gan Ning's expedition to the east and west, its combat power was extremely strong, but now it has met an opponent. The Jizhou army fought head-on under the organization of Ju Yi, and did not retreat half a step, especially the three thousand halberd soldiers were even braver, and the two sides fought for a while until the evening before they collected their troops and returned, and they also suffered damage!

After this battle, Gan Ning also had to admit that the combat power of the Jizhou army was extremely strong, and he did not lose much of his subordinates, and although Gao Ran was defeated in front of the battle, he could command but he was effective, and Ju Yi was also extraordinary! It is not in vain that the lord regards Yuan Shao as a great enemy. Although Gao Ran Juyi and the others were enemies of Gan Ning, they also appreciated the elite of the Youzhou army, and in the final analysis, they still had a numerical advantage in this melee, and the soldiers were really strong, except for the halberd soldiers, the rest of the soldiers were indeed slightly inferior.

However, Gan Ning is just a partial division all the way, although they are brave soldiers, they are not afraid, this time as long as they confront Gan Ning, so that the lord can deal with Liu Bei without worries! Therefore, in the next few days, he only inquired in detail about the opponent's movements, and did not engage in battle with him, until two days later, an urgent report suddenly came from Qinghe, saying that Zhang Yan's army was attacking very urgently, and asked the two generals to send troops to help.

This is also the calculation of Gan Ning and Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan was very familiar with the terrain of Jizhou back then, and this march was day and night, and did not alarm the county defenders, and only made a big show when it was close to the Qinghe River! Qinghe is an important town in Jizhou, the land of the Bohai Sea, and the general of Yuan Shao's army, Chun Yuqiong, led 20,000 soldiers to sit here! Speaking of Chun Yuqiong, this person is the highest among the generals under Yuan Shao, when the Son of Heaven was named the eighth lieutenant of Xiyuan, he was one of them, and Yuan Shao Cao Cao Liu Yi status is similar, after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing with Yuan Shao returned to Bohai, extremely loyal to it, very trusted by Yuan Shao.

However, compared with his reputation, his ability is much worse, all the generals in the army know it, and Chun Yuqiong is most afraid of Liu Yi, when he scolded Xu Huang in the West Garden, Liu Yi was furious and gave him an old fist, and the Chun Yu lieutenant was extremely miserable and lost face. Later, in the first battle of Luoxian County, he besieged Zhao Yun with Gao Lan, Han Meng and others, and almost lost his life.

At the beginning, Chun Yu Qiong heard that it would be the Black Mountain thief Zhang Yan back then, and he was quite disdainful in his heart, these Yellow Turban Army guerrillas in the mountains were good at it, but once the dignified array hid in Tibet, how did he know that after he led the army out of the city, he was ambushed by Zhang Yan, only then did he know that the combat power of his men was far from comparable to that day.

Regarding the ability of this "general" under the main account, Gao and Ju knew very well that there were objections to letting him guard Qinghe back then, but Yuan Shao trusted him very much before he gave up, and now even if Liu Yijun attacks Qinghe, how many men can Zhang Yan have? He has the city in his hand, and he only needs to defend it to be afraid, but this letter for help keeps coming, and it seems that the city will be destroyed on the same day.

But the matter has come to this, but it is impossible not to save it, and after the two sent a letter to Yuan Shao, they wanted to divide their troops to go, but at this time, Gan Ning's army blocked the road to Qinghe, which seemed to have been expected. In the eyes of the two, although Gan Ning's hand is playing beautifully, but there is also a suspicion of being a lone army, once Yuan Shao returns to the army, he and Zhang Yan are very likely to not be able to return to Youzhou, but this Gan Xingba is bold, but everyone knows that this move is a strange soldier designed by Xi Zhicai.

Chun Yuqiong's request for help was not only sent to the two, Yuan Shao also received his letter, Yuan Shao's army set out very smoothly at the beginning, almost no effort to take Beihai, and several ministers in the DPRK and China were also negotiable, at that time quite complacent! Originally, after Cao Cao sent his troops, he thought that Liu Bei must be the army's heart was broken, but Liu Xuande seemed to be determined to be hard to consume him in Langya, but he put Pi's safety and disregard, and he was more tenacious.

It was a time of upset and irritability to attack for a long time, and General Yuqiong came to have fun with him at this moment, how could General Yuan not be angry, and after reading the letter, he tore it to pieces and threw it on the ground.

"Liu Langsheng deceived people too much, and dared to take advantage of our army to raise troops outside the country." But he forgot that he designed the inside and outside and wanted to plot Youzhou, didn't he also take advantage of Liu Yi's army outside?

"Don't be angry, now Guanyouzhou uses troops, uses Gan Ning to contain General Gao, and Zhang Yan sneaks to attack Qinghe, this must be from the hands of Xi Zhicai, and I think the civil strife between Korea and China should have been dismantled. However, Liu Yi went out to the elite of the division this time, how many people can there be in Youzhou? Chun Yu's 20,000 army of Tun and Qinghe, how could Zhang Yan capture it? The lord can take a letter of resignation to calm his heart, the main force of our army should attack Langya again, Liu Bei thinks at this time that it is also the end of the strong crossbow, and he can't raise tigers for trouble! Tian Feng said that he thought that the internal response to the ministers of the DPRK and China was the plan of Xu You and Guo Tu, and Tian Feng also felt that this plan was quite wonderful, even if it was not successful, it could also make Youzhou civil strife and uneasy.

It's just that they all ignored an important point, Liu Yi said to Jia Xu and Guo Jia before breaking Zhang Ning in Bingzhou that day, no matter how good the plan is, it depends on the ability of the person who implements it, and now Xu and Guo are here to cooperate with the outside is a good strategy, but those Wenchen in the court are not the people who do the plan, of course, they didn't expect Jia Wenhe's thunderous means to make this matter almost invisible!

"Lord, although Yuan Hao's words are reasonable, but they are mostly speculative words, how do you know that Youzhou does not have much combat power, General Chun Yu is the general of our army, he must be Zhang Yan who is powerful this time, if he sits idly by, once he really takes Qinghe, then the Bohai Sea is in danger! Liu Bei insisted on Langya, and even ignored Pi, in case our army couldn't take it, wouldn't Liu Yi be caught between him and him? Xu You said that his reasoning was not unreasonable, and his words were not intense.

"Ziyuan's words are also, this time our army has exhausted the land of Beihai, Bohai is where the main foundation is, there can be no loss, Chun Yu's words can not be ignored, even according to Yuan Hao's words, it will take time for our army to capture Langya, if it leads to the loss of Bohai, wouldn't it be worth the loss? And if our army returns to help, there are two advantages, one is to try to annihilate the soldiers entering Youzhou, and the other is that if our army retreats, Liu Bei will definitely return to the army to reinforce Xiapi, and then whether Xiapi can be defended or not will be a heavy loss! If our army can break Liu Yi's army, there will be no trouble, and then the army will come again, and what strength will Liu Xuande have to resist? Rather than let my sergeants be damaged under this Langya City, it is better to let Cao Cao's men and horses fight against it, this time I am famous in the army, and I am not afraid of Cao Mengde's words! Guo Tu then spoke, and his analysis of the situation was also fine.

Yuan Shao was a little moved when he heard this, if he could annihilate Liu Yi's troops entering the country, it would indeed be better than losing them under this Langya City, and he would lose his troops and generals, but Cao Cao's troops were unhindered all the way, so it would not be too late for Liu Bei to return to the army and consume it!

"The lord, Liu Yi is a hero, if he is allowed to become a subordinate again, he will sit on the land of three states, and it will be difficult for all the princes in the world to fight independently, and the only one who can join forces with the lord is Cao Cao, wouldn't this move be a hidden worry for the future? As long as the lord is determined and unmoved, he will return to the army after he has defeated Langya and eliminated Liu Bei, even if the Qinghe Bohai Sea falls into the hands of the enemy, they will not be able to defend it! At that time, the lord can get half of Xuzhou, and then add Hebei and Qingzhou, and he can fight against Liu Yi. It can be said that Tian Feng sees the most accurately, and his overall vision is really better than Guo Tu and Xu You, but his lord is not a person who can make decisions, and just from the immediate point of view, Xu Guo's words are also reasonable.

Yuan Shao also knew that Tian Feng had a far-reaching plan, but he was reluctant to give up Bohai, which was where he could not see Cao Cao, if he changed Cao Mengde, for the sake of the overall strategy, he would never care about giving up any place, even if the immediate interests were attractive, he should give up for the sake of overall consideration! Just like Liu Yi's dispatch of troops to contain this time, it can be said that in addition to the loss of soldiers, there is nothing to gain in front of him, but he can still make a decision immediately, in his opinion, keeping Liu Bei is where the interests lie!

When he was hesitating, someone suddenly came to report that the envoy of the Son of Heaven had arrived!
