"There are signs of the transfer of troops and horses in Juyong Pass, and Xu Rong from Yanmen County will definitely go south to merge with the state, this information came a little late, and I don't know if it is accurate."

"Back to the lord, Youzhou was originally the second son, but now he is staying in Yecheng and drinking with his wife and concubine all day long, there is no one in charge there, and Gongsun Zhi wants to take Youzhou is certain. If the information is not falsified, the wolf should be competing with Cao Cao for time, but no matter what, the news is not good for us. ”

In the voice of the interrogator, Yuan Shang pinched the information in his hand, and frowned slightly on his green face, "..... is really disadvantageous, now the eldest brother is still in Qingzhou and intends to let me come down and hand Jizhou into his hands, but how can a big brother with such a temperament control the land of Sizhou." ”

Walking to the door of the threshold, Yuan Shang clenched his fist and tapped lightly on the door a few times, and suddenly smiled: "...... Gaogan has been operating and merging states for several years, and it shouldn't be a problem to resist Xu Rong with a state, as for Youzhou...... Don't you think Gongsun Zhi sent troops a little earlier? Thaw in February, the weather is still cold, this is a taboo for soldiers, there has been no one in charge of Youzhou for a long time, the people below heard a little wind and grass, it is inevitable that they will be frightened, so set up a defense in northern Hebei, and then first eliminate the estrangement with the eldest brother, and reach a consensus, how can the brothers not work together to win Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao. ”

"What about the second son?"

"Don't worry about him, this little thing will be sluggish, even if you hand over Youzhou to him, it will be given to others." Yuan Shang waved his hand indifferently, "Just let him lie down at home and see how I, as a younger brother, can solve the brother's infighting and resist Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao." ”

He held his head high, his hands turned to look at the green outside, the sun was shining through the swaying branches, shining dappled on the ground, "..... Gongsun will stop the military force, it will never last long." Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.

It is not difficult to defeat the wolf in the rich Jizhou, in the past, Yuan Shao's army was huge, but the recruits accounted for the majority, after the battle of Guandu, the army that returned from the rout was disrupted and reorganized, it was an army with combat experience, but if you want to defeat Cao Cao, you must unite the forces of Qing and Hebei to be effective, and Yuan Tan wants to be independent, unwilling to accept the orders of his younger brother, which is Yuan Shang's biggest problem at present.

"The eldest brother sent someone over there again, invited him to meet in Leping, no matter what, he and I are brothers, my father is gone, we should join hands to guard the four states, recuperate and wait for the next year, as for the matter of the Gongsun Zhi sending troops, whether it is true or not, I am not afraid of him, as long as I see the eldest brother and handle the relationship between the brothers, with the wealth of my Jizhou, the ten Gongsun Zhi are not in my eyes."

Yuan Shang waved his palm heroically, then clenched his fists, smiled with a rather handsome face, and said to the judge behind him, who faintly saw a trace of Yuan Shao's demeanor in the past from him, and nodded: "The first step of the lord to move forward is right, only by letting the eldest prince understand the current situation in the four states, and join hands with us to resist the enemy, can we regain the prestige of the ancestor of the year." ”

In the next two days, Yuan Shang convened a trial and a strategist to discuss countermeasures, and on the other hand, he sent a messenger who could speak well to Licheng at the junction of Qingdao and Hebei to present the benefits and disadvantages, and for the news that the troops would be sent in the cold season in February in the north, and still maintained a skeptical attitude, the second news has spread from the north to the south, and the big clan who originally had an enmity with Gongsun Zhi was frightened into a cold sweat, and caused a storm in that circle, and then sent a large number of fast horses to pass to Jizhou, It's like an extension of spring thunder and rumbling.

On February 21, the white wolf led by Zhao Yun rode with the black mountain of Zhao Zhao and Yan Rou to ride through Juyong Pass, block the remaining water, and clear the Youzhou scouts who came and went, and on the 27th, Gongsun Yue and Tian Kai of Changping formed a defensive line, and on the second day, the Youyan infantry led by Gongsun Xu and Zou Dan converged, repelled the Yuyang soldiers and horses, attacked the fox slaves across the river, and coerced Yuyang City.

At the same time, Gongsun Kang of Liaodong raided Youbeiping County, and after breaking the Lingzhi and Long Xianshui, he rested for a few days and went straight to Pinggang City.

On the first day of the first month of March, Ma Bu nearly 50,000 troops from the north gathered under the city of Yuyang, ready to attack the city, on the morning of the fifth day of the first month, 30,000 Youyan infantry soldiers stormed the south gate, took the city wall in four hours, the city gate was opened inside, in the afternoon, the city fell, and hung a huge white wolf flag.

On March 11, two cavalry teams of White Wolf and Black Mountain, led by Zhao Yun and Zhao Zhao, totaling 10,000 cavalry, swept towards Guangyang and Zhuojun.......

Yuan Shang, who was still deliberating, pinched the battle report, his hands trembled imperceptibly, the fine beads of sweat on the back of his neck penetrated his skin, and he looked at the judge and Feng Ji beside him, "...... how is this good?" ”

It was the beginning of April when the news came to Yecheng, Yuan Shang was still a little young after all, he heard his father talk about the war last year and even in previous years, and he didn't feel anything, but now he saw the dazzling handwriting on it, and his heart began to panic.

********

On the ninth day of April, Xudu, Yuzhou.

The voices of the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were noisy, the messenger was holding the official document and going down the eaves, and the sound of pen and ink and bamboo slips came from the open official room, and Cao Cao took the Prime Minister's Mansion and Cao Peng from the outside, listening to the income and expenditure of grain and straw last year, as well as the promotion of Tuntian by the government after the beginning of spring this year.

On the other hand, the news that Gongsun Zhi sent troops in February has been transmitted, and the staff and strategists in the Prime Minister's Mansion unanimously believe that this is the best opportunity to capture the two states of Qinghai and Hebei.

Out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, to the north gate of Xudu, there was already a team waiting there, Cao Cao got off the carriage and went over to practice with Wang Lang and Xu You, in order to protect the envoy team to arrive safely in Shanggu County, to return to Jia Xu, and specially sent an additional 500 soldiers to accompany the whole process.

"Don't send it again, go to Shanggu County, and you will be persuaded by Gongsun Zhi and return the Jinwu."

Cao Cao put him in the carriage, and then bowed his hand to the two: "This matter is laborious, Gongsun is a person, you also know more or less, don't be careless, his army is now attacking and plundering You, and, shouldn't you bother too much about this matter, and when you want Wenhe, come back quickly, don't lose ......"

Soon after, seeing the messenger team leave, Cao Cao received a message from Cheng Yu, he frowned and looked at it for a moment, looked at the imperial city, folded the silk silk, put it in his sleeve, and lowered his voice to the person who delivered the news: "Don't make a noise about this matter for the time being, let Zhong De's later matter be put aside for the time being, and turn to arresting the assassin." ”

At the same time as the secret confrontation in Xuchang City began, in mid-May, Gongsun Zhi was testing the imitation Jizhou strong crossbow in the school field, and it was about to be installed on a large scale.

"It seems that Cao Cao is going to give up Jia Xu, and no one has come over at this time...... Or rather..... it's too slow. ”

Whoosh –

The crossbow was nailed to the stake with a clatter, he put down the crossbow body and handed it to Li Ke, and at this time, someone came over, whispered a few words beside Dian Wei, the giant man nodded and let the other party leave, turned around and came to the ear of Gongsun Zhi, who was walking back, and said: "Lord, someone from Xiliang is coming." ”

"Xiliang?"

Gongsun Zhi frowned, and glanced at the gloomy clouds, "What are you doing here at this time...... Bring people to the school grounds. ”
