Zhao Fei set up a banquet to entertain Han Qiong, but he obviously didn't get what he wanted. Han Qiong was just temporarily reinforcing Yuan's army, and he didn't know what Yuan's army's troop arrangements were. In this regard, Zhao Fei felt very helpless, but he could only sigh that his luck was not good, who could blame him.

Now Zhao Fei can still comfort himself, but when a soldier came to him very differently and whispered something on his side, Zhao Fei's expression was obvious. What the soldier said was nothing else, it was Yuan Shang's breakthrough.

Even if he didn't know the identity of the person who broke through, Zhao Fei could obviously guess it. Those hundreds of people were strong and well-equipped. And they have no intention of fighting, aiming to break through, it is obvious that these hundreds of Yuan soldiers are protecting Yuan Shang to break through.

Zhao Fei immediately ordered Zhao Yun to lead the soldiers of the White Horse Yicong to pursue quickly. Although Zhao Fei knew that the possibility of catching up was very slim, he had to at least have a glimmer of hope, if he could really catch Yuan Shang and his strategists, then the next battle would be much better.

If Yecheng is taken, it means that Cao Jun has taken the entire Jizhou. No one in Jizhou is no longer Cao Jun's opponent, so the next battle is bound to be smooth. Of course, the premise of this is that Yuan Shang is captured, and if Yuan Shang is still making trouble outside, Cao Jun will still encounter a trace of trouble.

It was not much different from what Zhao Fei expected, after the hundreds of Yuan troops escaped into the mountains and forests, they disappeared in an instant, although there were white horses and righteous followers chasing along the road, but still nothing was found. After all, the north of Yecheng is still the territory of Yuan's army, and although Cao's army is strong, it is difficult to use it all.

When the news reached Zhao Fei's ears, Zhao Fei was naturally very helpless, but the matter had come to this point, and it was obviously useless to think about it. What's more, Yuan Shang's escape was of great help to Cao's army to conquer Yecheng, and even the lord abandoned the city, so what did the other soldiers in Yecheng think.

"Pass my order, tomorrow there will be a day of truce, and after the soldiers have recuperated, we will storm Yecheng!" Zhao Fei commanded.

Zhao Fei's move had two functions, one was to let the soldiers of the Cao army have a good rest for a day, so that they could recharge their energy and have a better performance when they attacked the city. Second, Zhao Fei wanted to take this opportunity to tell the soldiers and people of Yecheng that Yuan Shang, the lord of Jizhou and the leader of Yecheng, had abandoned the city yesterday and fled.

The next day, Cao's army made a truce, which made Yuan's soldiers breathe a sigh of relief. The threat of Cao's catapults was enormous, and these days it had always terrified the soldiers of the Yuan army on the walls of Yecheng. Now that the truce is finally over, I can finally take a break.

Although the soldier thought so, he also used smart people to know what Cao Jun's move meant. Obviously, the Cao army under the city was ready for a strong attack. After today, I am afraid that the war will be even more tragic.

In the entire Yecheng, the most worrying thing is the trial. First, he has to worry about whether Yuan Shang has escaped the pursuit of Cao Jun, and second, he has to worry about how long he can last with the current situation in Yecheng.

Zhao Fei had people prepare thousands of cotton cloths written on Yuan Shang's escape from the city overnight, and then asked a catapult to drop these cotton cloths into Yecheng.

Seeing the information on the cotton cloth, the people in Yecheng immediately panicked. They don't know if the message written on the cotton cloth is true. If this is really true, then how should they be?

Of course, even though there were some riots among the people, they were not as fierce as the major clans. He sent all his private soldiers to assist Yuan's army in holding the city. But what is going on now, Yuan Shang actually abandoned the city and fled, and his move was obviously to kill himself.

Outside the city, Zhao Fei hated the Shi clan and was known as the Shi clan killer. Now that Zhao Fei has been given such a good opportunity, how can he let go of the people in Yecheng. Thinking of this, all the clan chiefs in Yecheng panicked. They want to find out if Yuan Shang really abandoned the city and fled.

If Yuan Shang really abandoned the city and fled, then the major families would have to figure out their own way. Either resist stubbornly, or abandon the city and surrender. Otherwise, just like Yuan Shang, organize some elite soldiers to escape from Yecheng.

Escaping Yecheng may have some impact on some of the Dashi clans, but for the Shi clans who rely on Yecheng for their survival, they don't have the courage to flee Yecheng. Leaving here, where is the place where they can survive.

The patriarchs surrounded the Great General's Mansion, and they hoped that Yuan Shang would come out to prove that he had not abandoned the city and fled. When the judge heard the news, he immediately showed a helpless wry smile, he expected that Cao Jun would use this trick, and the judge was obviously afraid of this trick.

However, the only consolation is that Cao Jun has never caught Yuan Shang, otherwise, how could Cao Jun let go of such a good opportunity.

Out of the general's mansion, he looked at all the clan patriarchs, and showed a very helpless expression. The major patriarchs were all human spirits, and when they saw that only one person came out, they immediately knew what was going on. Obviously, Cao Jun did not deceive everyone, and Yuan Shang had really abandoned the city and fled.

"I think you already know that Cao Jun is right, the lord has broken through yesterday!" The trial obviously didn't have anything to hide.

Hearing the news, everyone fell silent for a moment. The major patriarchs are all people with status, and since they know that the matter has become a fact, there is nothing that can be reversed. What can be done now is to see what solution there is for the trial, after all, there is only such a think tank in the entire Yecheng.

To be honest, what is the way to judge the match at this time. He is ready to live and die with Yecheng, and when the city is broken, it will be when he dies.

However, for the sake of Yuan Shang, the trial obviously hopes that Yecheng can support it for a longer period of time. He looked at the people in the city, and then said in a deep voice: "The reason why the lord broke through is to ask for help from the third prince of Youzhou. ”

Obviously, no one believed the words of the trial, just asking for help, can Yuan Shang, who is a general, go in person. If there is any accident during the breakthrough, there is nothing Yuan Jun in the city can do to rescue.

But when the judge said this, everyone also listened wisely. They have lost confidence in the Yuan family, and for the sake of the family, they have adapted to think of a way out.

Today's situation is quite clear, Cao's army is like a rainbow, and the capture of Yecheng and even Hebei has become a sure thing. The major families have a big business, and now if they want to run, I'm afraid it's too late.

Moreover, even if they run, everyone will be able to run there. After taking Hebei, Cao Jun became the largest prince in the world. When the time comes, whether it is military strength or financial resources, Cao's army will surpass other princes, and at that time, the whole world will probably be Cao Cao's.

I can hide for a while, but I can't hide for a lifetime, if Cao Jun really wants to destroy his family, I'm afraid it will have no effect anywhere. The only thing that can be done now is to reconcile with Cao Jun.

The reason why Zhao Fei got rid of all the families in Xuchang City for the next killer was because these families rebelled together, if it weren't for this premise, even if Zhao Fei wanted to do it, I am afraid that he would have to consider the consequences first.

Offending all the families in Hebei has never been something that Cao Jun can afford, if Cao Jun wants the entire rear to be stable and prosperous, he obviously needs the support of these families sitting in the rear. Everything that the major families have in their hands is far beyond the imagination of others, and if the two sides really have a feud, Cao Cao obviously doesn't want to see it.

With this idea, the patriarchs of the major families knew how to deal with the situation in front of them. As the so-called people go to tea and cool, since the Yuan family is no longer good, then they will not spare no effort to help the Yuan family.

The trial was there at length, hoping that the major families would work together, but he obviously didn't know that the major families already had their own sides. No matter what he said, it would be in vain.

The patriarchs of the major families dispersed one after another, and the trial suddenly seemed quite desperate. I think I can have a peaceful night today, but tomorrow I am afraid that it will be difficult to say. The judge sighed slightly, and then turned around and walked into the General's Mansion.

There were a lot of things to make up for the trial, and at night, the major clans transferred back their private soldiers. And he was obviously helpless about this trial, but he still kept a hand. During this time, the soldiers who defended the city were all private soldiers of the major clans, and among these private soldiers, the trial also moved their hands and feet, leaving many strong men privately.

The major families were most dissatisfied, but at this critical juncture, they obviously didn't want to make a fuss. Let's see what the situation will be tomorrow, if it is determined that the trial match really can't be held, then the major families will unite, open the city gate, and welcome Cao Jun into the city.

The next day, Cao's army set up a position under Yecheng City. They did not build trebuchets, but sharpened their knives, preparing to storm Yecheng.

The soldiers of the Yuan army on the city wall were somewhat flustered, thinking that they could breathe a sigh of relief, but they were faced with such a situation. Cao's assault on Yecheng was obviously a more dangerous thing than a trebuchet.

After all, there is still a fluke in the heart of preventing catapults, but in the face of Cao Jun's soldiers, there is no such luck mentality.

With the sound of war drums, Cao's army's storming of Yecheng finally kicked off. The soldiers of the Cao army roared, and then a team of soldiers rushed forward with sandbags. If you want to conquer Yecheng, the first thing to solve is the problem of the moat.

Zhao Fei didn't want to use catapults to fill the moat in front of Yecheng, but this was obviously wishful thinking. In the end, Zhao Fei Intelligent relied on manpower. Although it will cost a lot of soldiers, it also supports this decision.

However, one thing is gratifying is that the Yuan army on the city wall obviously has no fighting spirit. The soldiers of the Cao army broke through the range of the Yuan army for a long time before a rain of arrows came down.

This is definitely a good phenomenon for Zhao Fei, and the more Yuan Jun is like this, the smaller Cao Jun's losses will obviously be. At this time, Zhao Fei seemed to be able to see that Cao Jun could conquer this Xiongcheng without being able to do so.

Conquering such a majestic title, Zhao Fei was obviously very excited. He squinted, staring at the battlefield.
