Hearing this, Zhang Han finally understood why Yuan Shao withdrew his troops, it turned out that Li Jing's army had attacked Yuan Shao's rear, which could be explained.

"Master Yang, then Li Jing has really sent troops?"

Yang Xiu nodded, "Naturally, there will be no fake!" ”

Yue Fei pondered for a while, and then said solemnly: "If it is really Li Jing who sent troops, then Li Jing only has more than 10,000 people under his command, plus Chen Xu's army, at most 30,000 or 40,000, how can he be the opponent of Yuan Shao's 100,000 army?" However, if we take advantage of Yuan Shao's just withdrawal and send troops to pursue, we will definitely be able to win a complete victory. First, it can contain Yuan Shao's army, and second, it can eliminate the living force of Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses, so that he will no longer have the ability to threaten His Majesty and Xu Du in a short time. What does General Zhang think? ”

Zhang Han thought that he would be thankful when he saw Yuan Shao's withdrawal, but he didn't expect that Yue Fei would still want to continue to expand the results of the battle, Zhang Han has always been a relatively conservative person, so he was a little hesitant about this proposal.

"General Yue, isn't it a good thing to let the princes of Wu Ming and Yuan Shao kill each other now? I thought that we should sit on the fisherman's profits, why bother to go-for-tat with Yuan Shao, this is a bit more than worth the loss! ”

Zhang Han tried his best to persuade Yue Fei to dispel this idea, after a period of defense, now more than half of the 10,000 soldiers and horses under Zhang Han's command have been lost, if it weren't for Zhu Wen sending him another 5,000 reinforcements, it would be difficult for the Changshe to hold at this time; And more than half of the soldiers and horses recruited by Yue Fei have been damaged, so now there are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Changshe City, Zhang Han doesn't want these soldiers and horses to be damaged again, so he doesn't advocate going out of the city to pursue.

"I can understand General Zhang's feelings, but everything has to be considered in the long term. If Li Jing is defeated by Yuan Shao and defeated by Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will inevitably make a comeback, and he will have no scruples. So I do this. It is also for the overall situation in the future. On the other hand, Fei has always thought that although Wu Ming is a prince, he has always been loyal to the Han family, and as long as the prestige of the Son of Heaven is revived, then Wu Ming will inevitably return to the command of the Son of Heaven. ”

Yue Fei's words did not convince Zhang Han completely, but he still agreed with the first point, that is, if Li Jing was really defeated by Yuan Shao, then Yuan Shao would definitely make a comeback at that time.

"In this case, then Zhang is willing to go out of the city with General Yue to pursue, anyway, he has been beaten by Yuan Shao for so long, and he wants to let them taste my methods."

However, Yue Fei still said with some worry: "General Zhang doesn't know anything, I'm still a little worried now, what if this is Yuan Shao's plan to lure the enemy?" ”

Hearing this, Yang Xiu was a little anxious, "General Yue, what do you mean by this?" Do you think that what Yang Xiu just said is a lie to you? I, Yang Xiu, just have a head, and I don't dare to lie to you with this kind of thing. ”

Seeing that Yang Xiu was in a hurry, Yue Fei smiled and said: "Don't be excited, I don't doubt Lord Yang's words, but I'm afraid that Yuan Shao will be scheming and use tricks, so I think it's better to be cautious." ”

The next day, the spies came with news that Tian Feng in Yuan Shao's army was put on death row because he desperately admonished Yuan Shao and did not let Yuan Shao withdraw his troops, and now he was sent to Yecheng to prepare for questioning.

Hearing this, Yue Fei finally made up his mind and led an army of 10,000 out of the city with Zhang Han to pursue.

"General Zhang, if the enemy army is broken, it will definitely be ambushed on this hillside thirty miles west of Changshe City, so I must be careful when I get there, and when the time comes, I will lead a small team of soldiers and horses into it first, and you will lead most of the troops to respond."

Yue Fei considered all the circumstances that could be taken into account, and Zhang Han was naturally very convinced of Yue Fei's plan.

The 10,000-strong army marched outside the city for several hours, and finally arrived at the hillside that Yue Fei had said. Yue Fei acted according to the plan, and walked in cautiously with two thousand soldiers and horses, and after a while, he heard the sound of shouting and killing, Yue Fei was not in a hurry at all, and decisively led his troops to counterattack.

The soldiers in this ambush were 10,000 soldiers led by Gao Ran, and after Zhang Han's army came over, Gao Ran was naturally invincible, and immediately led his troops to retreat, Yue Fei chased after him and chased forward again.

The army chased and killed for another fifty miles, and the army of Gao Ran had been running desperately, and Yue Fei did not find Yuan Shao's other troops along the way, which made Yue Fei suddenly have a little doubt in his heart, and immediately stopped the footsteps of the army,

But Zhang Han asked, "Why didn't the general continue to pursue?" The soldiers and horses under Gao Ran's command have collapsed at this time, as long as they chase for a while, they will definitely be wiped out, this is a great credit, the general should not miss the opportunity! ”

"I'm just a little skeptical, since this Gao Lan has led the army to break off, he should bring elite people, but his subordinates are far from it, could it be that Yuan Shao wants to have him?"

When Zhang Han heard it, he thought about it for a while, and then replied: "Maybe Yuan Shao thought that our army would not dare to pursue, so the soldiers after the break did not leave too many elite soldiers and strong generals, and it is possible." ”

Yue Fei shook his head, and then suddenly lost his mouth and said, "Not good! must have fallen for Yuan Shao's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain! ”

Zhang Han let out an "ah", then looked complicated, and asked in disbelief: "Is General Yue's words true?" You can't think too much, right? ”

"If the long society is lost, my sin is also good! Quick, General Zhang, go back to the Army Commander's Office, beware of changes! ”

Zhang Han didn't dare to slack off, if it was really like what Yue Fei said, when the Changshe was suddenly broken, it would be dangerous.

It's just that at this time, Yue Fei's army has been running all the way for nearly a hundred miles, and after another battle, the current physical strength is already a little unable to keep up, even though Yue Fei continues to motivate, but the marching speed of the soldiers is still not as fast as at the beginning.

It wasn't until three o'clock that Yue Fei's army returned to the outside of Changshe City, but at this time Changshe City was quiet, there was no fighting shouts and gunsmoke, there were a few sparse torches on the city wall, and those guards had already seen the soldiers and horses under the city at this time, and one of them hurriedly shouted: "But General Yue and General Zhang are back?" ”

When Zhang Han heard this, he laughed and said, "It's really a false alarm!" General Yue, you're scared to death! No, the guard on the city wall is my confidant Jiang You, now General Yue can rest assured! ”

Yue Fei exhaled, his nerves were also crumbling tightly along the way, and this feeling of being in the middle of the trick lingered in his heart. Only now, he finally had a relieved smile on his face.

"Jiang You, quickly open the city gate and let General Yue and me enter the city!"

When Jiang You heard this, he immediately responded: "Two generals, please wait!" Come on, open the city gate, and let the two generals enter the city! ”

As the city gate gradually opened, Jiang You brought a few people to greet Yue Fei and Zhang Han, and at the same time shouted: "Congratulations to the two generals on their victory!" ”
