Nanpi City, the second largest metropolis in Jizhou, a radius of dozens of miles, nearly 100,000 households, no matter the population and scale are second only to Yecheng, is also one of the birthplaces of the Yuan family, the city wall here is high and thick up to three zhang than the Yecheng is not far behind, Jizhou is also a rich place in the Han states, it is a large grain producer, the grain in the Nanpi City is extremely abundant, now Yuan Shao will take this city as one of the key points of the entire defense line in Jizhou, and let the eldest son Yuan Tan personally lead 50,000 elite soldiers to sit in town, which shows the importance.

Yuan Tan is quite brave among the sons of Yuan Shao, and he is very close to a military general, and his influence in the Jizhou army is better than that of the two brothers, but his temperament is rough in Yuan Shao's heart, but he is not as young as his younger brother, in recent years, Yuan Benchu has brought his younger son to suppress the eldest son, and handed over Yecheng to Yuan Shang is one of them, but the eldest son's succession to the throne has been a practice since ancient times, even if Yuan Shao has the heart to do so, he has to be afraid, otherwise it is easy to lose the hearts of the people once he is not careful, because of Liu Yi's coming, Although his strength in this world is also extremely strong, it is much worse than the Hebei hero who is in the four states and has hundreds of thousands of armor, so Yuan Shao still has a lot of scruples at this time.

But Yuan Tan's sense of crisis has not weakened in the slightest, the younger brother Yuan Shang is extremely flexible, when it comes to pleasing his father, he is difficult to please, and now he is making friends with a group of strategists and officials under Yuan Shao, and establishing his own team, like Xu You, Guo Tu and others have been very close to him, and after the main Yecheng, he has received a lot of support in the military camp, and now he can compete with Yuan Tan in terms of strength alone, not to mention that the second brother Yuan Xi is also on Yuan Shang's side, where will he have his own foothold in the long run? In the power struggle, all the family affection in the world is insignificant.

Of course, as the eldest son, Yuan Tan also has his own strength, and generals like Gao Ran Juyi are on his side, as for Yan Liangwen, Tian Feng and others are just loyal to Yuan Shao, and now they don't have too many tendencies in the prime of life, but for the stability of Jizhou, Tian Feng has spent a lot of effort in it, if it weren't for the coordination between him and Fu Zhu and others, I am afraid that the battle between the young and the young will be more intense, and now with Liu Yi's army pressing the border, all the problems are temporarily hidden.

There is an old saying in China, the newborn calf is not afraid of the tiger, which can not only describe the young man's enthusiasm but also reflect his ignorance and fearlessness, for Liu Yi's understanding Yuan Tan is through human words, this time let him guard Nanpi Yuan Shao specially strictly warned that once Liu Yi's army comes, it must not go out of the city to fight, only according to the city to hold on, there are many battlefield generals in the Nanpi army, as long as the upper and lower hearts and the Xiongcheng in hand, there is the capital to fight, otherwise the result of his fight with Liu Yi can be imagined.

On the day of his father's explanation, his expression and tone were extremely stern, after all, the two of them had fought side by side many times since the beginning of Xiyuan, and Yuan Shao was also well aware of Liu Yi's ability to use soldiers. But Yuan Tan also had his own thoughts in his heart, if he could defeat Liu Yi, who had the reputation of winning in this battle, it would be of great benefit to his prestige and future struggle for power, so when the Youzhou army was straight to the skin, he also wanted to show it.

When Liu Yi's army arrived at Nanpi City, it was noon, last night Tai Shi Ci's Beiping camp had rushed to the west of the city twenty miles away to set up camp, heard that the lord came to Ziyi and immediately rushed to greet him, to the camp Liu Yi handed over the matter of camping to a subordinate, but he invited Gao Shun and Tai Shi Ci to go to the Nanpi City in detail, when he returned to Youzhou from Xuzhou in Beihai, he went to Anxian County, here has never been, since you want to break the city, this field survey is inevitable.

This matter is naturally what Jing Fang thinks in his heart, although Xi Zhicai is worried about the danger of the main security, but at this time, his army is on the side, and Yuan Jun is guarding the city and not coming out, plus Nanpi is surrounded by plains, and you can see it at a glance, so he and Guo Jia also went together, in Liu Yi's heart, I wish Yuan Tan could have the courage to come out and raid, since he fought to the death with Lu Bu in Fuping, he has not been on the battlefield to kill the enemy for a long time, and it is quite hard to hold back, but he also knows in his heart that this kind of opportunity will become less and less in the future, As the lord's father, how can he risk the arrows himself? First of all, he couldn't pass the level of Xi Zhicai, and he could only find a good time with the generals.

The place where the Liaodong camp is encamped is only twenty miles outside the north gate of Nanpi, all the horses are very divine horses, and they have arrived two miles away from the city in a short time, if it were not for Xi Zhicai to stop it, it is estimated that Liu Yi will go straight to the city gate, and there will be no such magic arrow as Ziyi in the city, Lang Sheng blood dragon halberd in hand, and there is a BMW dark cloud covering snow under the crotch, of course, he is not afraid of the Yuan army in the city.

"Zhicai, how can you see the details of this city from two miles away? A mile further closer, Zhicai can rest assured, so far from the city, there are strong bows and crossbows that can't hurt me, and there is Jing Fang Ziyi with him, but you and Feng Xiaowenhe are still safe here. Liu Yi Lema said that although he traveled from later generations, he was not omnipotent, at least he couldn't make a telescope, and the craftsmanship of this era had not yet reached that standard. With Tai Shici's treasure carving bow and golden feather arrows going all out, they can only hurt the enemy six hundred steps away, and the distance of this mile is already extremely safe, but the three military advisors are all scribes, and it is about them Liu Yi dare not be careless.

"Ziyi, Jing Fang, Liu Liu, after approaching the city for a mile, you must not let the lord take another step, otherwise I will use the military rule to rule you and so on." Liu Yi's words were indeed reasonable, and Xi Zhicai immediately said to a few people, although the words were directed at Gao Shun and others, but they were all said to the lord.

"The military advisor is relieved that I am here to ensure that the lord is safe." When everyone heard this, Tai Shici immediately said that he had been the commander of Liu Yi's personal guard battalion before he was transferred to the Beiping camp as the commander this time, and this distance should be An Ruo Taishan with the ability of the lord.

Liu Yi heard that his legs were covered with dark clouds and snow, and the horse galloped out like an arrow from the string, a mile of road was just a few breaths of time for it, and Liu Yi sometimes imagined that many wealthy businessmen in later generations would raise horses in order to raise horses, and a group of purebred good horses would even cost tens of millions of dollars. However, after reaching a certain distance, he will no longer move forward, Xi Zhicai's words have always been true, if he is really too close to the city, the people accompanying him will definitely not be able to escape military law.

"This Nanpi city has been strengthened year after year in the beginning, and it is indeed worthy of the name of the Xiongcheng, and in terms of the city wall alone, I am afraid that it will be above my Beiping." After Liu Yi looked at the city in front of him for a moment, he pointed at the two generals of Taishi Ci Gao Shun with a horsewhip and said, Speaking of previous war examples, he Liu Langsheng had never defended the city except for intercepting Lu Bu as a last resort, and he attacked others, so he did not exaggerate too much to strengthen the city defense in the expansion of Beiping, and it was more practical to have this financial and civil power than to use it in the border pass, of course, the city wall of Beiping is not as good as Nanpi in height and thickness, but the length is much better, and it is unique in the Han city.

"Last night, Ci took advantage of the night to look around the city, and it was exactly as the lord said." Ziyi was not an idle dweller, he had come to see it last night, and then he had come closer under the cover of the night, and the southern city of Nanpi was stronger than any fortified city he had ever seen.

"General Ziyi, how about borrowing your magic arrow to test the hardness of the city wall?" Gao Shun looked at it for a while before he spoke, this move is by no means untargeted, after all, Liu Yijun has the most advanced siege weapon now, the Bombardment Cannon, Jing Fang is to give full play to its effect, and in the Youzhou Army, there is no one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Ziyi in archery, so he is naturally the best candidate at this time.

"General Gao invited, how could Ci not obey? I don't know which ones the general is going to try? Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci immediately handed over the spear in his hand to the entourage, took off the treasure carving bow from his back and put it in his hand, and then asked Gao Shun, since he asked him to try, Jing Fang must have what he wants.

"The battlement of the city, two zhang in the middle, three feet at the bottom edge, one foot above the city gate, Shunzhi Taishi's golden arrow is made of fine iron, extremely powerful, and it should be an eye-opener today." Gao Shun pointed to each other and said several locations, all of which were the key points of the city wall.

"Hahaha, General Gao is too ridiculous, lord, the last general will come when he goes." Tai Shi Ci smiled slightly when he heard this, and in the voice of his words, the big Wan Liangju under his crotch had already rushed to the moat under Nanpi City.

I have friends here today, I want to be a tour guide for them, it's late to update, forgive me, but the number will not be small, and there must be a chapter in the evening.
