Just when Yuan Xi was wandering outside the world, a loud shout of killing suddenly came from the west of them, which woke Yuan Xi up from his imagination.

He looked up at the front in a little confusion, and for a moment he couldn't even distinguish between reality and illusion.

However, this feeling only appeared for a moment, and soon he was refreshed.

"Lu Kuang, you quickly take someone to investigate, and see if Huang Zhong's puppet is attacking Xuchang City? If it was really Huang Zhong's puppet who was besieging the city, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”

"No!"

Yuan Tan, who reacted, immediately ordered his subordinate general Lu Kuang to go to investigate, and after Lu Kuang agreed, he immediately rushed towards Xuchang with several of his subordinates.

Looking at the rapidly disappearing backs of Lu Kuang and the others, Yuan Shang couldn't help but feel a little nervous, this time he could be said to have bet all his net worth on this battle.

He had wanted to send someone to do some small actions in Jizhou before.

But not long ago, the senior cadre he sent to Jizhou suddenly lost all contact with him, and Yuan Shang knew that something must have happened to the senior cadre!

You must know that Gao Gan is his most trusted general, not only because of the kinship relationship between him and Gao Gan, but also because Gao Gan's ability is also the top under him.

But it was such a general who died so quietly, and there was not even a little wind coming out, which deepened Yuan Shang's jealousy of Jizhou again.

If it weren't for the sake of being able to recover the territory of his second brother Yuan Xi in a war this time, even if Qingzhou Cao Cao mediated it, he would not easily start another war with Jizhou.

However, since he has embarked on this road, Yuan Shang believes that he must get enough benefits, otherwise Jizhou's revenge will not be so easy to suffer later!

Although Cao Cao had said when he mediated the conflict between him and his uncle Yuan Shu, he would soon organize a coalition again and launch the next round of offensive against Jizhou.

But who can confirm that what Cao Cao said is true, in case before he organizes the coalition army, Jizhou Liu Yuan's revenge will come in advance, and he Yuan Shangke is not sure to stop it.

Of course, with the second brother Yuan Xi's territory in hand, then everything will be different.

The second brother had two fortified cities in his hands before, and these two cities guarded the hinterland of Yuzhou.

As long as he can send heavy troops to guard it, then if Jizhou Liu Yuan's men want to go deep into Yuzhou again, it will definitely not be as easy as this time!

I don't know how the second brother ran it, but he let Huang Zhong take down the two fortified cities quietly, which is really more than enough to succeed!

Thinking of this, Yuan Shang couldn't help but turn his head and glanced at Ji Ling beside him again.

Ji Ling's lord Yuan Shu is an insatiable example, and in the future, he will not only have to guard against Liu Yuan, but also against Yuan Shu's attack.

Thinking of the bad situation he might have to face in the future, Yuan Shang couldn't help but have a headache.

However, he will definitely live up to his father's hopes and let the Runan Yuan clan flourish again!

On the other hand, Ji Ling, who was beside Yuan Shang, also raised his head that had been hanging low at the same time as the shouting of killing came, and his eyes kept flashing with excitement at this time.

He knew that this was a really good opportunity, since the last time his lord was defeated at the hands of Liu Yuan, his lord had become a little sluggish.

Sometimes even some ridiculous decisions are made that are incomprehensible.

Just like not long ago, if it weren't for himself and Master Yan's hard persuasion for a long time, the lord would have the intention of becoming the emperor!

The other colleagues were a little puzzled, why did the lord become like this?

But as the henchman of the lord, Ji Ling knows that all this has a great relationship with Jizhou.

If it weren't for the previous defeat in the hands of Liu Yuan, coupled with the subsequent series of actions by Liu Yuan in Yangzhou, which greatly damaged Yangzhou's strength, the lord would not have had such a huge pressure.

The reason why the lord prepared this time and did it to his nephew was also to expand the strategic depth of Yangzhou.

Although this can't compete with Jizhou, at least they can have more respite.

However, just when the lord was about to give the order to attack, suddenly Cao Cao of Qingzhou sent someone to send a letter, and after reading Cao Cao's letter, the lord pondered for a long time.

Subsequently, the lord changed his previous decision, and ordered himself to lead about seventy percent of the men and horses in the entire Yangzhou to come and join Yuan Shang to attack Huang Zhong.

For the lord's decision, Ji Ling agreed with it in his heart, at this time their biggest enemy was none other than Jizhou, which was already the best in the world.

If with the cooperation of Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, Huang Zhong's men and horses can be severely damaged or completely annihilated, and Liu Yuan's arrogance can definitely be dealt a hard blow.

And the loss of Huang Zhong, a peerless general, is tantamount to a broken arm for Liu Yuan, which can fundamentally alleviate their crisis in Yangzhou.

However, Ji Ling is not without the slightest worry, after all, this time the lord can be said to be going all out, and there are only more than 30,000 people left in the entire Yangzhou.

If at this time, other princes use Yangzhou's crooked brains, before he leads the army back to help, whether the lord can withstand it, this is a big question!

However, the probability of such a thing happening is very small, after all, the eyes of the whole world are now staring at Liu Yuan of Jizhou, and the princes bordering Yangzhou are only Cao Cao and Liu Biao.

Cao Gong naturally didn't need to say anything, he was the one who didn't want to see the princes fighting among themselves, so he shouldn't choose to invade Yangzhou at this time.

Liu Biao of Jingzhou is possible, but now he is busy guarding against the invasion of Jiangdong Sun Jian, and as long as nothing happens, he is not capable of launching an attack on Yangzhou.

Thinking of this, Ji Ling's eyes flashed a look of resoluteness again, and he made up his mind that he must hit Huang Zhong's men and horses hard this time, and it is best to completely annihilate this Jizhou elite!

Just when Yuan Shang and Ji Ling were thinking about each other, Lu Kuang had already returned to the two of them with someone, and as soon as the battle was stopped, Ma Lu Kuang said:

"Lord Qiqi, in Xuchang City not far ahead, there is indeed a battle going on! The two sides of the battle were Huang Hansheng's men and horses, as well as the subordinates of the second son Yuan Xi. According to a certain opinion, the second son is already a little unbearable. Whether or not to go to support or not, please decide to the lord! ”

"The second brother has been able to withstand Huang Zhong's attack for so long, which has greatly exceeded Ben Hou's expectations! Ben Hou came to ask you, has Huang Zhongpuff done his best, and how many men and horses have been left behind in his rear army to guard? ”

"Lord Qiqi, the last general just took a closer look and found that Huang Zhong's rear army will not exceed 10,000 people! As long as our army is strong, it will definitely be able to strike a blow! ”

"Good! The two generals Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang listened to the order, and they ordered you to bring your own men and horses to attack Huang Zhong's headquarters from the left and right flanks! ”

"No!"

"Ma Yan and Zhang Yi, you will lead the army with Ben Hou and go straight to Huang Zhong's rear army! This time, I want to succeed! ”
