Chapter 285 Four-Way Siege

Sun Jian may escape, this is not the most disturbing for Yuan Shao.

Now he has a headache with Liu Yuan, I don't know what hysteria Liu Yuan suddenly had, and he actually sent 50,000 troops to attack his Hanoi County!

In order to ensure that Sun Jian was killed without fail, he sent two generals under his command, Zhang He and Gao Lan, who led an army of 50,000 to assist Liu Biao.

These 50,000 men were forty percent of the troops under his command, and he originally thought that in a short time, there would be no princes around him to disadvantage him.

That's why he sent the 50,000 people under his command, but he didn't expect that as soon as his men and horses arrived in Jingzhou, Liu Yuan's people had already approached Hanoi County.

Although he deployed no less than 30,000 troops in Hanoi County, no matter what he thought, he felt that his little man was not Liu Yuan's opponent!

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the generals sent by Liu Yuan are not comparable to those under his command.

Coupled with Liu Yuan's wolf-like soldiers, Yuan Shao is now extremely big.

After receiving the news that Liu Yuanjun was going to attack Hanoi, Yuan Shao immediately sent people to gather all his advisers.

But they deliberated for a long time, but they were unable to come up with a plan that satisfied them.

It wasn't until he scolded his advisers that they gave a slightly satisfactory answer.

That is, immediately contact the other princes near Jizhou and put pressure on Liu Yuan together.

It's best to let those princes engage Liu Yuan, so that not only can they relieve the pressure on their Sizhou, but maybe they will also have a chance to defeat Liu Yuan in one fell swoop!

And they also suggested that they immediately transfer Zhang He and Gao Laner, who were transferred out, back.

In this way, even if the princes near Jizhou did not make a move against Liu Yuan, their Sizhou also had the power to protect themselves!

Yuan Shao agreed to this suggestion at that time, and he first sent people to contact Cao Cao, the assassin of Qingzhou, Liu Dai, the pastor of Chongzhou, and the newly appointed pastor Sun Zan of Bingzhou.

After the princes of the Nineteenth Road crusaded against Dong Zhuo, in order to divide these princes, Dong Zhuo re-appointed a lot of assassins and state pastors, and Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan were newly appointed by Dong Zhuo.

The only difference is that Cao Cao did not accept the holy decree sent by Dong Zhuo, while Gongsun Zhan readily accepted it, and rushed to Bingzhou with his subordinates to take office.

Of course, although Cao Cao did not accept the holy decree on the surface, he still led people to occupy the territory of Qingzhou, and then began to recuperate there.

I heard that when he was in Qingzhou, Cao Cao collected 300,000 yellow scarves.

This allowed Cao Cao to get at least 100,000 young people, making Cao Cao's strength jump to the top among the princes from all walks of life.

As long as these princes could agree to his request and send people to attack Liu Yuan in Jizhou, Yuan Shao would not believe that Liu Yuan still had the strength to attack him!

Of course, Yuan Shao still made another preparation, although he did not immediately transfer Zhang He and Gao Ran back now, but he had already ordered them to stop advancing.

Only after receiving his next order can they decide what to do next.

Whether to retreat to Si Li or continue to attack Sun Jian depends on the choice of those princes!

When Yuan Shao's letter for help was delivered to those princes, Sun Zhan, the new pastor of Jizhou at that time, was the first to reply to Yuan Shao, and he was willing to mobilize men and horses to attack the western part of Jizhou.

Soon Cao Cao and Liu Dai also replied to Yuan Shao, and they agreed together, with Liu Dai attacking the southern part of Jizhou, and Cao Cao attacking the southeast of Jizhou!

When Yuan Shao received the replies from these princes, he was excited and laughed, now it was Liu Yuan's turn to have a headache!

Who let him be so arrogant that he attacked him first, you must know that he is the most feared figure of all the princes, as long as he moves, there will definitely be three or four princes guarding against him!

Now he can be regarded as having tasted the bitter fruit, who let this guy have a bad relationship with all the princes, only Beihai Taishou Kong Rong and Changsha Taishou Sun Jian have a good impression of him.

However, these two princes are a little far away from him, and now even if Liu Yuan wants to ask for help from these two princes, it is impossible for them to send reinforcements to support Liu Yuan!

At this time, Yuan Shao received a letter from distant Changsha, which stated that Sun Ce, who had stayed in Changsha, went straight to Xiakou with 20,000 horses.

It is obvious that Sun Ce is here to rescue Sun Jian, and now that Liu Yuan is no longer afraid, it is better for Sun Jian, the tiger, to clean up first!

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao immediately ordered someone to give orders to Zhang He and Gao Lan, ordering them to immediately rush to the vicinity of Xiakou to ambush, and once Sun Ce's men and horses were discovered, they must be annihilated!

Yuan Shao contacted all the princes here, and Liu Yuan was also not idle.

He had long expected that Yuan Shao would have such a hand, so after he sent Guan Yu's four generals, he immediately mobilized a few more people!

Now Zang Yi and Zhang Liao formed a group of people, and they went to defend Gongsun Zan in the direction of Bingzhou, and Dian Wei took Zhao Le to defend Liu Dai in the direction of Chongzhou.

As for Cao Cao in Qingzhou, Liu Yuan personally took Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, and Liao Hua to defend, after all, in Liu Yuan's opinion, Cao Cao was the prince who was the most threatening to him!

At the same time, Cheng Pu, who was originally attacking Xiakou, had already received Sun Jian's order, and after listening to Sun Jian's order, Cheng Pu immediately withdrew from the battle in Xiakou with his people.

They hurried in the direction of Jiangxia, and now Sun Jian's men should have rushed to Jiangxia, just waiting for them to converge!

What Cheng Pu didn't expect was that at this time, Sun Jian's men and horses did not rush in the direction of Jiangxia, but were dragged under Wuchang City by Liu Biao's men and horses!

Just when Sun Jian was about to evacuate with his men and horses, Liu Biaojun in Wuchang City discovered Sun Jian's abnormal movements, and it was Liu Biao's subordinate Liu Pan who was stationed in Wuchang at that time.

This person is extremely brave in battle, and he also has two generals under him, Wei Yan and Wen Ping, although these two generals are not very old, but they are very brave.

Before, because they wanted to drag Sun Jian under Wuchang City, Liu Pan never ordered the second general to fight, and only at the critical moment did he order Wen Ping to lead people to repel Zu Mao.

That was only the only time, and then the two of them kept holding back, until Liu Pan found out that Sun Jian wanted to retreat, and immediately killed him with the second general.

Sun Jian originally thought that this was an opportunity to defeat the defenders of Wuchang, but when he and Wei Yan exchanged hands, he immediately felt the strength of the other party.

If it weren't for his rich experience, he might have been injured by Wei Yan's men, not only him, but his general Zu Mao was also defeated by Wen Ping.

Fortunately, Sun Jian saw that the situation was not good, and immediately collected his troops to defend the camp, otherwise he would not have been able to wait to lead the team back to Jiangxia, and he would have been attacked by Liu Pan's fierce attack and took the life of his tiger!

At this time, Sun Jian was lamenting alone in his camp, there was not much grain and grass left in his hands, what should he do if he continued to be in such a stalemate?
