But Gongsun Zhan gave up the seizure of the various places, Yuan Shao took advantage of the momentum of the great victory, and after seizing the various places, he entered Changshan, Zhongshan and other places, Zhongshan, Changshan, Hejian and other places The battle line was too long, Yuan Shao divided his troops and attacked, and soon it was a rout.
Gongsun Zan had no choice but to gather soldiers and horses in the river, and now Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses are stationed in all directions of Hejian County, showing a situation of encirclement of the river.
Judging from the situation, Gongsun Chan has no chance to enter Jizhou, and it is only a matter of time before he withdraws from the battle for hegemony in Jizhou.
After Yuan Shao gave the order, the soldiers and horses from all walks of life prepared to return to Anping to meet Yuan Shao. As for Liu Yu, Yuan Shao believed that with the hatred of Liu Yu and Gongsun Zhan, as long as his lobbyists said something to help him, Liu Yu would definitely send troops.
In fact, the envoy sent by Yuan Shao rushed to Youzhou to ask Liu Yu to send troops to attack the rear of Gongsun Zan of Youbeiping. Liu Wei's envoy had already rushed to Youzhou and ordered Liu Yu to send troops to attack Gongsun Zhan. At this time, Liu Yu was already preparing for war, and Yuan Shao's envoy came to beg, and Liu Yu naturally agreed without thinking.
In order to convince Yuan Shao, Liu Yu ordered the general in front of Yuan Shao's envoy, with Di Qing as the main general, Fu Zhi as the military advisor, Pan Feng as the vanguard, leading the infantry army of 25,000 and 5,000 cavalry, and sent troops to the right Beiping to attack Gongsun Zhan.
Seeing this, Yuan Shao's envoy relieved himself and hurriedly flew back to Anping Xindu to report back to Yuan Shao.
Xindu of Anping County, Yuan Shaozhong has led the soldiers and horses to rush back, Yuan Shao envoys will discuss the military situation in the future, only to see His Royal Highness shouting: "Lord, I am about to attack Gongsun Zhan, seize Hejian, and take down his head, why do you want me to withdraw the army!" ”
Yuan Shao's eyes flashed with coldness, this Ju Yi didn't take him seriously anymore, relying on the anti-guest support for his merits, thinking that without him, he couldn't do anything. Yuan Shao sneered in his heart, do you think I am still Yuan Shao when I just got Jizhou a few months ago? During this time, Yuan Shao knew that he was dissident, all the people in the army were his henchmen, and Ju Yi didn't have so much energy in the army now.
"Bold, the lord summoned you back naturally for something important, where is your turn to point fingers!" Knowing that Ju Yi couldn't make any waves now, Xu You came out to protect Yuan Shao's face and shouted at Ju Yi.
"...... you" Ju Yi was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red, he was the first person in Yuan Shao's army, a staff member, and he dared to shout at him angrily?
"Ju Yi give me a retreat, don't be presumptuous!" Seeing that Ju Yi was about to fight back, Yuan Shao shouted angrily. Ju Yi still looked around, but no one spoke for him, his heart was shocked, Ju Yi, who felt Yuan Shao's killing intent, hurriedly retreated, his expression changed, and he didn't know what he was trying to write.
"I summoned you back this time, but it was to withdraw from the army!" Yuan Shao replied.
"Retirement?"
"The lord must not, Gongsun Chan is defeated, he should take advantage of the victory to pursue, if he retreats, give him a chance to recuperate, if he makes a comeback, isn't his efforts in vain?"
"The lord can't quit the army!"
The generals under his command said one after another, and this time Ju Yi seemed to have learned to be obedient, bowing his head and not saying a word.
"Calm and quiet, listen to me, the Son of Heaven is the assassin of Yanzhou, this is the fat that fell from the sky, so I decided to send troops to Yanzhou, and you will prepare to prepare, and tomorrow you will send troops to Yanzhou to attack the Yellow Turban himself, Zhao Kuangyin, Bao Xin and other departments!" Yuan Shao patted the table and explained clearly.
"Lord, that Gongsun Chan is occupying Hejian, if we retreat, what will we do with Hejian?" Zhang He hurriedly asked, he frowned and said: "Gongsun Chan is not an easy person, although the lord has won a succession, but it should not be underestimated, if the lord divides his troops to attack Yanzhou, Gongsun Chan may be able to take this opportunity to counterattack Jizhou." ”
Yuan Shao nodded and said: "What Junyi said is reasonable, but these are not to worry about, I have united with Liu Yu and let Liu Yu attack Youbeiping, Gongsun Zhan will definitely come back to help protect the nest, and I can rest assured that I will attack Youzhou!" ”
"The lord is slow, listen to the words of the last general, then Liu Yu's strength is not good, maybe after a battle, Liu Yu will be defeated, if that Gongsun Zan takes advantage of the lord to send troops to Yanzhou, desperately counterattack Jizhou? It's better to let the last general lead 5,000 troops to garrison here, I have defeated Gongsun Chan several times, Gongsun Chan is afraid of me like a tiger, and he must not dare to move lightly! Ju Yi suddenly bowed his hand, looking quite proud.
Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, looked at Xu You, saw him nod, Yuan Shao said: "It's okay, you will leave 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison here to guard against Gongsun Zhan, if Gongsun Chan retreats, you will take the opportunity to subdue Hejian!" ”
"It's the lord, the last general is ordered!" The light in Ju Yi's eyes flashed, and he gave his hand to lead the way.
"You guys will prepare and set off south tomorrow to attack Yanzhou!" Yuan Shao ordered.
Afterwards, the generals retreated, and Yuan Shao said to Xu You: "That Ju Yi knows that I want to take him, and now he has realized it, there must be a conspiracy to stay here, why did Ziyuan let me leave him here?" ”
"Don't worry, although Ju Yi has different intentions, do you think, now that all his subordinates are the lord's henchmen, what other storms can be stirred?" Xu You said with a smile.
"What if he took refuge in someone else?" Yuan Shao said worriedly.
"Under Liu Yu, Pan Feng has an enmity with him, and tens of thousands of sons under Gongsun Zan died at his hands, who else can tolerate him? If Ju Yi really dares to rebel, he will fall into a place of no return! Xu Yu laughed.
"Okay, it's best to say that he rebelled in this way, and it saves me from doing it myself and getting the infamy of framing the heroes!" Yuan Shao stroked his beard and smiled.
In addition, Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses in the Jizhou River under Gongsun Zhan's command only have 5,000 cavalry and 15,000 foot soldiers, plus Liu Bei's 3,000 soldiers and horses, there are only more than 20,000 people.
And Yuan Shao is pressing step by step, and the major families have made domestic slaves help each other, and they are donating grain and grass, and Yuan Shao's strength has gradually stabilized Gongsun Zhan. Therefore, Gongsun Chan had no choice but to shrink his forces to the river.
Seeing that the time is gradually passing, Jizhou has been in Jizhou for more than nine months, but the strength is getting weaker and weaker, and the grain and grass are consumed innumerable, Gongsun Chan has the idea of retiring from the army.
On this day, Gongsun Zhan suddenly received a report from the soldiers, saying that Yuan Shao's troops and horses had withdrawn. Gongsun Zhan hurriedly summoned the generals and said: "Yuan Shao suddenly withdrew his troops, I am afraid that there is a conspiracy, now that Hejian is already like chicken ribs, it is useless to do so, I think it is better to return to Youzhou!" ”
"Lord, why did Yuan Shao withdraw his troops? It's better to inquire clearly, maybe there is turmoil in the rear of Jizhou! "Alone through the arch.
"Report, the lord has inquired clearly, Yuan Shao withdrew his troops to the south, in order to attack Yanzhou, Yanzhou Yellow Turban is raging, I heard that Yanzhou officials elected Zhao Kuangyin as the assassin history, and Yuan Yu, the assassin of Shanyang, went to see Yuan Shao!" Gongsun Chan also had some of his own intelligence channels, as soon as Yuan Shao withdrew his troops, soon, in Yuan Shao's army, Gongsun Chan informed him of the reason for his withdrawal.
"Damn, did Yuan Ben treat me like nothing at first? He swaggered to attack Yanzhou, isn't he afraid that I will cut off his back road and counterattack Jizhou? Gongsun Chan said angrily, feeling that Yuan Shao didn't take him seriously.
"Lord, the spies are coming to report, Yuan Shao left Ju Yi and other 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard this place to guard against the lord's soldiers and horses!" His Highness's messenger said weakly.
For a while, Gongsun Zhan's face was ugly for a while, even more ugly than eating flies. said that Yuan Shao didn't take him seriously, Yuan Shao left Ju Yi. But Ju Yi only had 5,000 soldiers and horses, and his own troops were four times that of him, but despite this, Gongsun Zhan did not dare to fight.
"Report, a letter from the lord Youzhou, Liu Yu raised 30,000 soldiers and horses, with Pan Feng as the vanguard, under the banner of your unauthorized provocation of the war, attacked Youbeiping, and now it has connected several cities, and please return to Youzhou as soon as possible!" A Youzhou soldier was rushing into the camp tent at this time to report.
"Damn, Liu Yu Pifu'an dares to do this? I'm not going to attack you, you dare to take advantage of people's danger and sneak attack my rear, this time you must look good! Gongsun Zan was furious when he heard this, and ordered: "Give me the camp immediately, I will rush back to Youzhou and cut Liu Yu!" (To be continued.) )
