Early the next morning, the three-man coalition began the siege as originally planned.

"My lord, it's not good, it's not good! Tianshui City is besieged! At this time, a soldier hurriedly came to Zhao Fengde's residence.

"What? Where did the soldiers and horses come from? Zhao Feng was slightly stunned, attacking the city so quickly was completely beyond his expectations. Although these days, he ordered the soldiers guarding the city to step up patrols, and once they encountered something wrong, they would close the city gate to defend against the enemy, but now after all, the reinforcements have not yet arrived, what kind of defense can be made, Zhao Feng himself is not sure, or rather, Zhao Feng himself has no confidence in whether these soldiers under his command can hold Tianshui!

"Lord Qiqi, my subordinates don't know who this leader is!" The soldier shook his head, where did he recognize Yuan Shu? Where do you recognize Helian and Qiangqu, even the costumes of the Huns, these soldiers don't know either!

"Hey, forget it!" Zhao Feng shook his head, the quality of the soldiers is too poor, it seems that it should be integrated, it can't go like this, if it goes on like this, there will definitely be weaknesses that will be caught by the rest of the princes. After all, there are too many territories under Zhao Feng's rule, and the east and west stretch for hundreds of miles, Zhao Feng will definitely not take care of everything! In this way, if someone has a heart, Zhao Feng's huge territory may collapse with a bang!

Zhao Feng walked quickly to the top of the city, looking at the leader in the distance, Zhao Feng was stunned! How could it be him!

The person who led the troops was Yuan Shu, who disappeared after being defeated by Yuan Shao, and in the blink of an eye, Zhao Feng hadn't heard from Yuan Shu for several years, and now it seemed that Yuan Shu was mixed with He Lian and Qiang Qu.

Look at the soldiers and horses under his command, there are more than 100,000, and the momentum on his body should be a hundred trained elite soldiers, and even these soldiers and horses can fight with the combat power of ordinary Liaodong Army soldiers under Zhao Feng!

In other words, if Pang De and Xu Huang lead the troops to help, they may not be able to resist the attack of these soldiers and horses! Looking at the situation inside and outside the city now, Zhao Feng is even less confident, can this city still be held?

However, Zhao Feng knew that if he couldn't defend it, he had to defend it, once the city was broken, the people of Tianshui would face a catastrophe! He didn't know what Yuan Shu would do, but what He Lian and Qiang Qu would do, Zhao Feng knew it clearly.

In history, how many people did the Xiongnu kill when they went to Chang'an? How much food was robbed? Even Cai Yan was taken captive! So Zhao Feng didn't dare, he didn't dare to let this army break through Tianshui!

"Defend! Be sure to hold on! Zhao Feng ordered loudly.

However, Zhao Feng still underestimated the combat power of this coalition army, and now, although the two counties are still in the stage of stalemate, a discerning person can see at a glance that the Tianshui defenders are completely at a disadvantage, and they are completely pressed and beaten by the coalition forces!

There were constantly coalition soldiers on the top of the city, although they were all killed by Zhao Feng, Ma Chao and Sun Ce one by one, but soon, the three of them were no longer enough, and even the Jinyi Guard was arranged by Zhao Feng to participate in the battle to defend the city!

However, it was only an hour and a half before and after, and it was only noon!

Finally, the coalition army retreated, and it was time for lunch to eat, although Yuan Shu knew that if he continued to attack the city, and then attacked for an hour or so, Tianshui would not be able to hold it, but he couldn't let the soldiers do it, after all, it was already noon, the hottest time of the day had arrived, and most of the soldiers were hungry now, so the combat power would decline, and if it continued to attack, it would inevitably cause unnecessary casualties, which Yuan Shu didn't want to see!

Yuan Shu wouldn't have thought about it so much before, but now, he had to think about it, not only because of those few big defeats, but also because they now had too few soldiers and horses in their hands, which was a bit small compared to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses when he led Yuzhou Mu before!

"Whew!" Seeing that the coalition forces had retreated, Zhao Feng let out a long sigh of relief.

"Teacher, it's not a way to go on like this! If this continues, we will definitely not be able to withstand it in the afternoon! Ma Chao's tone was a little solemn.

In fact, whether it is Ma Chao or Sun Ce, or Pan Yun and Jiang Yin, they can all see that the combat power of this coalition army is too strong, and they want to resist the attack, unless they send another 100,000 soldiers and horses!

But where to find 100,000 soldiers now? Think about it and know it's impossible!

"Can we only retreat?" Zhao Feng secretly thought about it in his heart, but after thinking about it, Zhao Feng found that now that he had retreated, there was no other way!

"Lord, why don't we abandon the city and retreat!" At this time, Pan Yun suddenly proposed.

"But......" Zhao Feng was a little unwilling, and he was afraid of bringing ruin to the people.

"Lord, the leader of the army now is Yuan Shu, if Yuan Shu is the case, it should not bring any disaster to the people of Tianshui!" Pan Yundao.

"What's wrong with Yuan Shu? Maybe I'm not worried about someone else, but Yuan Shu, Helian and Qiangqu are together, so I can't say! Zhao Feng said.

"Lord, haven't you noticed the change in Yuan Shu?" Pan Yundao.

"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Feng asked suspiciously.

"Lord, the current Yuan Shu, it can be said that there is a degree of advance and retreat, judging from the overall operation of this attack on Liangzhou, Yuan Shu has now changed greatly. If this plan was conceived by Helian and Qiangqu, I believe that the lord will not believe it, right? Pan Yundao.

"Well, you go on!" Zhao Feng nodded, thinking about what Pan Yun said.

"Yuan Shu, this person, no one in his eyes before, arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't care for the people! That's why he was defeated by Yuan Shao, silently. But now, Yuan Shu suddenly appeared, and he also wanted to attack Liangzhou, and the most important thing is that he also came up with such a near-perfect strategy, which is really a huge change! Therefore, the subordinates judged that Yuan Shu's opinion of the people in his heart should have also changed. Pan Yun continued.

"Now, Yuan Shu, Helian and Qiangqu should not have many soldiers and horses in their hands, so they will definitely not kill innocent people indiscriminately, what they want to do is to turn the people into soldiers under their hands, into substantial combat effectiveness, so that they can be invincible!"

"Well, you're doing a good job!" Zhao Feng nodded and agreed with Pan Yun's statement, "Go and prepare, let's abandon the city and flee in a while, and go to the east of the river!" ”

Although Zhao Feng has a hundred unwillingness in his heart, a hundred do not want to abandon the city, but the actual strength is there, if Zhao Feng wants not to abandon the city, then he will live and die with this Tianshui City! This point, whether it is Ma Chao, Sun Ce or Jiang Yin, Pan Yun will not allow it! Zhao Feng is the master of one side, and he must not be in any danger in this projectile land, otherwise they will not become sinners through the ages?
