After losing Jizhou, Yuan Shao could only go to Qingzhou, compared to the wealth of Jizhou, Qingzhou seemed a little barren, and it was difficult to support the needs of the army in terms of grain and grass, and his strength would plummet.

"Lord, Huguan is dangerous, from the perspective of his subordinates, even if the coalition forces attack for another month, it will be difficult to break through, and the soldiers in the army are already a little tired, and it may be a good choice to retreat to Jizhou." Feng Ji Dao.

Yuan Shao was puzzled: "Why are you saying something else in front of everyone?" ”

Feng Ji said: "The matter of withdrawing the army is very important, if the lord immediately decides and cannot withdraw the army, it will inevitably let the officers and men of the army discuss, and after the matter is decided, it is not too late to inform the officers and men of the army." ”

Yuan Shaoshen nodded thoughtfully.

The next day, the atmosphere of the princes' army tent was a little dignified, such as Sun Ce, Cao Cao and others in the other princes' governing places, all of which were meticulous, and the Youzhou army attacked Jizhou on a large scale, and the news that Julu County was broken was no secret among the princes.

"At the beginning, the matter of Jizhou has been known to the Hou, and now the war in Huguan has entered the most critical time, if the troops are withdrawn at the beginning, our army will be at a disadvantage." Cao Cao said.

Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "Meng De will say it at this time, if there is something in Yanzhou, will Meng De still be so calm?" Jizhou is the foundation of Benhou. ”

"Ben Hou's words are for the initial consideration, if Jizhou withdraws troops, then the Yanzhou Army, the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army will be difficult to achieve, once the other three parties withdraw their troops, who will Lu Bu deal with first?" Cao Cao said.

Yuan Shao's heart sank, at this time Jizhou was in the midst of war, as Cao Cao said, once the princes withdrew their troops, the state army would definitely not give up, with his understanding of Lu Bu, the target of the state army was very likely to be Jizhou.

Whether it is Jingzhou, Yanzhou, or Jiangdong, the distance between it and Bingzhou is a little far, and when it comes to fighting Jizhou, Bingzhou occupies an absolute advantage.

Seeing that Yuan Shao was silent, Cao Cao said: "There is no need to be anxious at the beginning, Yecheng City is high and deep, and the Youzhou army that went to Jizhou this time is only more than 20,000 people, and the Youzhou is the foundation of Lu Bu, if the Youzhou is lost, the Youzhou army will inevitably withdraw." ”

Yuan Shao's complexion kept changing, and after a long time, he said: "Ben Hou can stay in Huguan for half a month, if he can't break Huguan, Ben Hou will definitely withdraw his troops." ”

Seeing that Yuan Shao agreed, Cao Cao's face showed a smile, Yuan Shao's character is very clear, as long as he is clear, it is very likely to change his decision, in this regard, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are very different, as long as it is decided to do things later, Cao Cao will do it as quickly as possible.

Huguan, Lu Bu looked at the topographic map of Jizhou in front of him, and said with a smile: "From Wenhe's point of view, will Yuan Shao withdraw his troops this time?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and said: "The princes' coalition army has paid a lot of price in order to attack and merge the state, and it will definitely not withdraw the troops so easily, but as long as one party withdraws the troops, the rest of the parties will definitely leave, although the Youzhou army is strong, Yuan Shao has been operating in Jizhou for many years, as expected, Yuan Shao will definitely have hope for the princes' coalition army, as long as the pot pass is broken, the state will definitely be shaken, and Jizhou will also gain huge benefits from this war." ”

"It seems that the princes will not be so resigned, and ordered someone to inform Zang Ba and Gan Ning, and teach Cao Cao, Sun Ce and Liu Biao a small lesson, so that they can understand that their rule is not as stable as it seems."

Jia Xu arched his hand with excitement on his face and said: "Well, in the opinion of his subordinates, I can let Commander Wang Yue lead some of the shadow guards into Xuzhou to help General Zang Ba, if you can capture Xuzhou in one fell swoop, it will be of great benefit to the lord." ”

Lu Budao: "At this time, it will be arranged by Wenhe, and the matter of Xuzhou, if you can't do it, you don't need to force it." "If it weren't for the critical moment in the state, he wouldn't have easily exposed Zang Ba's chess piece.

Jia Xu said yes, for the situation in front of him is more optimistic, the princes attack Huguan, in Jia Xu's view, in the end, can only end without a problem, they attack Huguan, pay can only be a corpse, of course, and the state in this war to pay the price is also a bit heavy, whether it is Keiguan or Huguan, there will be soldiers die every day.

Occupy the advantage of the checkpoint, the proportion of casualties on the besieging and defending sides of the city has gradually shrunk under the fierce offensive of the princes, and the battle has been carried out so far, and the death of the Bingzhou army in Huguan has reached tens of thousands.

After the princes finished discussing, they continued to launch a fierce attack on Huguan, this offensive was more fierce than before, and the walls of Huguan collapsed a little, which made the princes' coalition army even more crazy, and they seemed to see the scene after the collapse of Huguan.

In the face of the frantic attack of the princes, the state army fought back in an orderly manner, as for the collapsed part of the city wall, in their opinion, there was no big problem, because they had tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers of the state army behind them, even if Huguan was not there, they also had absolute confidence to break through the princes' coalition army.

Xuzhou, Lang Xie, Zang Ba handed it to Chen Gong after reading the letter in his hand.

Chen Gong opened the letter and read it carefully, then said in a low voice: "General, this is an opportunity for our army, the Yanzhou army is attacking Huguan, Yanzhou is empty, and Xuzhou's troops are insufficient, if the general takes the opportunity to send troops, it is not impossible to capture Xuzhou." ”

Since Cao Cao sent troops, Chen Gong has persuaded Zang Ba more than once to take the opportunity to seize Xuzhou, but Zang Ba did not easily agree to this matter, but secretly accumulated strength, he was waiting for orders from Bingzhou, Zang Ba will not forget that he is the general of Bingzhou, sometimes Chen Gong's tone is revealed, he can naturally understand, and even because of the attack on Xuzhou, there is some estrangement between him and Chen Gong.

Zang said domineeringly: "Since there is an order from the lord, the matter of attacking Xuzhou can be put on the agenda, I don't know what the king thinks?" ”

Wang Yue said with a smile: "This commander came here to help General Zang Ba occupy Xuzhou, but he will not interfere with General Zang's decision-making. Through the brief conversation between Fang Cai Chen Gong and Zang Ba, Wang Yue was keenly aware that the relationship between Zang Ba and Chen Gong was not as harmonious as it seemed.

Although the war in Xuzhou is important, it is far less than Huguanzhong, and Lu Bu sent him to Xuzhou at this time, will it be as simple as an order on the surface.

Chen Gong and Zang Ba naturally didn't know Wang Yue's thoughts, seeing Wang Yue's arrogant expression, Zang Ba didn't take it to heart, Lu Bu specially asked Wang Yue to come to assist, it must have his intentions, Wang Yue's name, Zang Ba naturally heard of it.

If you have a monthly pass or a recommended ticket, I hope you can support it!
