After the soldiers of the Bingzhou army boarded the city wall, they took out the ropes prepared in advance and tied the surrendered soldiers of the Jizhou army strongly, although there were occasional fists and kicks, but none of them disobeyed the military order.

After escaping to the city wall, Yuan Shao ordered the soldiers in the army to gather all the boats in the city in one place, knowing that the general situation was gone, and fled in the direction of Jizhou with the important strategists and generals under his command.

Yuan Shao's expression no longer has the confidence in Dangyin City, except for the generals and guards who escaped with him and the first dead soldiers, the rest are all left in Dangyin City, he can already imagine what the fate of the waiting army will be, without the general's army, will the Bingzhou army still resist in the face of the Bingzhou army, will the Jizhou army give the Jizhou army a chance to resist, not that he doesn't want to lead more soldiers to escape from the Dangyin, but the number of ships is limited, and the most terrifying thing is that the water surface in the city is also rising.

Walking to a shallow place, Yuan Shao felt that it was good to be down-to-earth for the first time.

"My lord, it's my subordinates who are incompetent." Feng Ji showed a look of shame on his face, in this confrontation, the Jizhou army was defeated too badly, 50,000 troops, only more than 1,000 people escaped, which was definitely a huge blow to the Jizhou army.

Yuan Shao said with a low face: "As a strategist, you haven't found out the intentions of the state army in advance, but it's a pity that there is no one in Jizhou?" It is a pity that tens of thousands of soldiers in Jizhou were buried in the city. ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Shao's eyes moistened, this time, he felt that he had been defeated too unjustly, and he had been calculated by the Bingzhou Army since the arrival of the reinforcements, which was that the Bingzhou Army wanted to fight to the death with the Jizhou Army, obviously wanting to weaken the strength of Jizhou to the greatest extent, and the most depressing thing was that from beginning to end, they did not see the figure of the Bingzhou Army.

"Lord, his subordinates are incompetent!" The generals and strategists in the field all hung their heads.

After a moment of silence, Feng Ji arched his hand and said: "My lord, the most important thing today is to return to Wei County and prepare for battle, in case the state army leads the troops to come. ”

Yuan Shao also knew that it was not the time to blame everyone, so he packed up his mood and walked towards the direction of Wei County with a panicked and muddy look on his face, once the Jizhou army caught up, it would be the biggest nightmare.

At this time, Yuan Shao didn't know how to describe his mood, originally high-spirited soldiers sent to Hanoi, even if Lu Bu led the Bingzhou army to come, he also had full confidence that he could defeat the Bingzhou army, because there were four hundred bed crossbows in the army, these bed crossbows were the weapons to win, thinking of the bed crossbow in Dangyin City, Yuan Shao felt a little stuffy in his chest, and the price of building a bed crossbow was not small.

Lu Bu led the army in Dangyin without decent resistance, even if there were soldiers loyal to Jizhou, they were quickly eliminated for the Bingzhou army, seeing that there was no trace of Yuan Shao and others in Dangyin City, he hurriedly ordered Zhang Liao to lead the soldiers to chase and kill.

However, after a day's work, the water in the city receded, and at this time the city could only be described as dirty and messy, many houses were destroyed, and the floating corpses also stopped after encountering obstacles, and the corpses of soldiers or civilians could be seen everywhere in the city.

Ordered the soldiers to clean up the city, and the important generals of General Lu Bu gathered together to discuss the attack on Jizhou, after defeating Yuan Shao, even if he could not lose and capture Jizhou, he would also make Yuan Shao worried.

Yanzhou, although Cao Cao regretted that Lu Bu occupied Hedong, but Yuan Shao's attack on Hanoi made Cao Cao feel a lot more relieved, without the state army, the Yanzhou army broke through Hongnong and Henan Yin naturally is not a problem, Jingzhou may covet these two places, because of the lack of strength, can only make a little careful thinking in secret, the land of Sanfu is extremely important, if it is not because of the Jizhou army, maybe Lu Bu's goal after breaking through Hedong is Chang'an.

Lu Bu gathered 40,000 troops, Cao Cao was really worried about Yuan Shao, unlike other princes, every time the state army went to war, the number of people mobilized was relatively small in the eyes of the princes, but the state was to attack the city again and again with a small number of troops, this time the mobilization of 40,000 soldiers and horses would have such combat power, could it be that Lu Bu wanted to take advantage of the situation to seize Jizhou?

Most of the troops of the state army withdrew from Hedong, Cao Cao also began his big move, at this time Shanyang has gathered 50,000 troops, he wants to drive Liu Bei out of Xuzhou in one fell swoop, Xuzhou's heart is to Jingzhou, and there is a lot of grievances between Yanzhou and Xuzhou, if Liu Bei is not eradicated, even if Cao's army attacks other places, we must beware of Xuzhou.

Sun Ce attacked Jiangxia under the banner of avenging his father, and Cao Cao did the same, ordering Xiahoudun to lead 5,000 soldiers as the vanguard of the army, and personally led the soldiers to Xuzhou.

The 50,000-strong army entered Xuzhou, and the counties along the way surrendered, but this time Cao Cao strictly ordered the soldiers under his command not to have the slightest encroachment on the people.

Cao Jun did not kill in Xuzhou, but also let many Xuzhou officials rest assured to open the city gate to welcome Cao Jun into the city, the family in the city did not mind taking refuge in Cao Jun, under the rule of Cao Cao, the family also survived, as for the people who suffered in the hands of Cao Jun in the past, it was also because of Tao Qian's fault, otherwise there would be Cao Jun slaughtering the city.

In the troubled times, the family also wants to take refuge in the more powerful princes, although Liu Bei is in charge of Xuzhou to treat people generously, compared with Cao Cao, it is still a lot worse, if it is not for the Jingzhou army to intervene from behind, I am afraid that Xuzhou has been broken by the Cao army.

In the face of the overwhelming Cao army, Liu Bei was also panicked, and hurriedly convened the civilian and military generals under his command to discuss countermeasures.

Originally, when Cao Cao sent Cao Ren to attack Henan Yin, Liu Bei received Liu Biao's secret order, Jingzhou and Xuzhou divided Yuzhou and Jiujiang equally, Cao Cao broke Jiujiang, which made Liu Biao very uneasy, on the one hand, he was afraid of Cao Cao's strength, and if Cao Cao really got the method of making a bed crossbow, it would definitely be very bad news for the Jingzhou army.

Liu Bei knew that Cao Cao would not let go of Xuzhou so easily, not to mention how deep the feud between the two had reached, but Cao Cao coveted Xuzhou.

"Yuanlong, now that the Cao army is attacking Xuzhou, what should we do?" Liu Bei set his sights on Chen Deng, in Xuzhou, he is the most important is also Chen Deng, with the support of Liu Bei, Chen Deng faintly became the first family in Xuzhou, which even the Cao family can not compare, although Cao Bao's daughter married Liu Bei, but in the army about Yu Zhang Fei and other fierce generals exist, even if Cao Bao has a heart, it is difficult to meddle in the affairs of the army too much, in contrast, after Liu Bei entered Xuzhou, it became the Chen family who occupied the biggest bargain.

"Lord, Cao Jun is coming violently at this time, the plan is not small, Cao Cao's wolf ambition to capture Yuzhou and Jiujiang, but now it is attacking Xuzhou, when sending envoys to Jingzhou, you can also send envoys to Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou for help." Chen Deng arched his hand.
