Xu You concentrated nearly 20,000 troops to defend the inner city of Yecheng, and only relied on the 8,000 Jingnan battalion soldiers brought by Wei Yan and the 2,000 or 3,000 Yuan troops gathered by Han Meng anyway, and it was indeed impossible to capture this inner city for a while.

However, Wei Yan naturally would not give up easily, so with the help of Han Meng's familiarity with Yecheng, he immediately attacked several yamonies, prisons and the private residences of many ministers and generals under Yuan Shao in Yecheng, and almost controlled the families of Yuan Shao's ministers.

This also includes Xu You's house, Wei Yan is not a good man and a woman, after he arrested Xu You's family, he took it directly to the inner city to force Xu You to surrender.

At this time, Zhang Yan also rushed over with the Montenegrin army, so Zhu Weijun, who had a total of 40,000 or 50,000 troops, surrounded the inner city of Yecheng, making Xu You, who was in control of the overall situation in Yecheng, break out in a cold sweat.

At this time, Yuan Shao, who could have affected the situation, fainted after being frightened, so everything could only be decided by Xu You again.

However, Xu You's family was arrested by Wei Yan again, so seeing Zhu Weijun, who didn't know how many people around, and looking at the relatives and children who were struggling outside the main gate of the inner city, Xu You soon sent someone out to contact the surrender.

The current situation is actually obvious, Zhu Wei's army that attacked Yecheng this time has a lot of troops, and although Xu You's men still have nearly 20,000 troops, the outer city has been lost, and they can only defend the inner city, so how long can they hold on.

At that time, as long as Zhu Weijun besieged the inner city with rockets, even if he couldn't burn many people to death, as long as he burned down the granary, then so many of them would be able to hold out for a few days.

Xu You may not be so capable in other aspects, but he still has a vision in terms of understanding current affairs, so Wei Yan threatened him with his family members, and it happened to give him a way to go down.

Of course, Xu Yu's surrender is also very methodical, as a literati, he naturally will not take people to surrender with him if he is arrogant.

He first tested the opinions of ordinary officers at all levels in the Yuan army, and then deliberately said a lot of problems in defense in order to reduce the resistance of these Yuan army officers.

After determining some of Yuan's intentions, he used these Yuan troops to first control Yuan Shao's 3,000 guards who were originally stationed in the inner city, and these guards belonged to the Yuan family's son-like henchmen, so if Xu You wanted to surrender, they might not support it.

In this way, after Xu Yu really controlled all the Yuan troops in the inner city, he officially surrendered to the Zhu Wei army outside the city, so Wei Yan and Zhang Yan only took three days to completely capture Yecheng.

As for Yuan Shao, when he saw Xu You leading Zhu Weijun into his inner room on the sickbed, he knew that he had been betrayed by Xu You, but he spurted out a mouthful of blood in anger, and he was directly angry.

Of course, Yuan Shao's life and death are not so important at this time, after all, Yuan Shang has already taken over the power of the Yuan family, but what happened here in Yecheng finally put Yuan Shangjun on Liyang's side into big trouble.

In addition to Yuan Shang's father Yuan Shao in Yecheng, there are also the families of these civil and military subordinates under Yuan Shang, and even many of the family members of Fengji and trial are in the Yecheng mansion.

Therefore, when Yuan Shang received a letter of help from Ye Cheng, he didn't dare to let the news go out at all, but secretly discussed countermeasures with Feng Ji and Xian.

Yecheng naturally had to be rescued, so Yuan Shang was ready to send 50,000 troops to attack Luoyang and defuse the offensive of Zhu Wei's army in the name of returning to Yecheng for reinforcements.

Then on the frontal battlefield, Yuan Shang also carried out a major counteroffensive, hoping to attract the attention of Zhu Weijun, so that the trial match could successfully lead the troops back to help.

It's a pity that Zhu Wei can know the battle situation in Yecheng at the first time through the Three Kingdoms game system, and he can also know the movements of Yuan Shangjun.

Naturally, he would not be deceived by Yuan Shangjun's actions, so on the frontal battlefield where Yuan Shangjun took the initiative to counterattack, Zhu Weijun also fought back fiercely, and as a result, Yuan Shangjun's counteroffensive was another big rout.

As for the small actions on the trial side, the way was soon blocked by Pang Yan's Xiong Lu battalion, Pang Yan's Xiong Lu camp took advantage of the situation to counterattack Dangyin County, and then set up camp based on Dangyin County, completely cutting off the road between Liyang and Yecheng.

After all, he couldn't break through the interception of Pang Yanxiong's battalion, so he could only reluctantly withdraw to Liyang.

In this way, three days passed quickly, and Zhu Wei knew that Yecheng had been obtained through the Three Kingdoms game system, so he asked the soldiers to launch a rumor offensive against Yuan Shangjun on Liyang's side, which was actually not a rumor, that is, the matter of Yecheng that Yuan Shang concealed was loudly publicized to Yuan Jun.

"Yuan Jun listened, Yecheng has been broken, you and the rest of the family are in the hands of our army, if you can rebel, anyway on the spot, King Ming can pardon the sins of you, otherwise you and the nine clans will be destroyed!"

"Yuan Jun listened, Yecheng has been broken, Yuan Shao's rebellion has been punished, you are good citizens, you don't need to follow Yuan's rebels as evil, turn back as soon as possible, and you can be exempted!"

"Yuan Jun listened, Yecheng has broken ,......"

With the shouts of Zhu Weijun's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, it was like being embattled to make Yuan Jun's people panic, although Yuan Shang kept saying that Zhu Weijun was a nonsense lie, but Yuan Shang knew in his heart that this was probably true.

Now Zhu Wei may only be able to talk verbally, and he can't come up with any evidence, but if he waits for any evidence from Yecheng's side, then Yuan Shangjun's military spirit will collapse immediately.

Yuan Shang was helpless, and he also knew that Liyang's side could not hold it, so Yuan Shang summoned Feng Ji, trial and some middle and high-level generals, but frankly informed Yecheng about the matter, and then internally rectified the thoughts of these civil and military subordinates.

Then Yuan Shang was ready to withdraw his troops, but now Yecheng could not go back, Yuan Shang could only retreat directly to the north under the advice of Fengji, Xianbei and others, and finally withdrew to Youzhou, and converged with Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan in Youzhou.

Fighting tiger brothers, several people are blood brothers after all, and now they also need to unite with the outside world.

Although Yuan Shang obtained Yuan Shao's inheritance power before he was close to the water, which made Yuan Tan very dissatisfied, Youzhou was originally Yuan Xi's territory after all, and Yuan Tan only lived in Youzhou.

Now, as long as Yuan Shang can withdraw with a large number of troops, he should be able to suppress Yuan Tan, so as to persuade Yuan Xi to support Yuan Shang to succeed Yuan Shang as the new head of the Yuan family.

Of course, if Liyang, which is located at the southern end of Yizhou, wants to withdraw from Youzhou, it must cross the entire hinterland of Yizhou, so how to retreat safely and how to get rid of the pursuit of Zhu Weijun is also a big problem.

At the suggestion of Feng Ji and Xian, Yuan Shang first carried out a reorganization of his army, such as the soldiers who were originally from Wei County would basically be left behind in Liyang, and at the same time, Yuan Shang also left several generals from Wei County, He Mao, Wang Mo, Jiang Yiqu, etc., who also continued to garrison Liyang to cover Yuan Shang's withdrawal.

Yuan Shang is going to play the golden cicada's plan to get out of the shell.

However, he also allowed the generals who remained in Liyang to surrender after holding out for some time, after all, their family was in Wei County, and now that Zhu Weijun had captured Yecheng, their families were basically in the control area of Zhu Weijun.

Even if they retreated with Yuan Shang, they would be greatly restrained by the family, so Yuan Shang pretended to be a good person and let them stay, just hoping that they could delay Zhu Weijun for a few days before surrendering on their own......
