Yuan Shao pondered: "Yanzhou is very close to Jizhou and Luoyang, and Cao Cao's strength is limited now, I intend to destroy Cao Cao first and take Yanzhou!" ”

"No! The lord, Cao Cao is also one of the princes who crusaded against Dong Zhuo before, if there is no suitable opportunity and excuse, if he rashly uses troops against him, public opinion is only afraid that it will be unfavorable to the lord! It's better to attack and merge states first! "Merge states?"

Tian Feng nodded and analyzed: "Lu Bu is Dong Zhuo's eagle dog, and no one will criticize the lord for using troops against him. Bingzhou is located to the west of Jizhou, which is the northern barrier of the entire Sili Prefecture! If you occupy and merge with the state, you can overlook the Chang'an area! When the time comes, the lord can send troops to Chang'an from the north and east at the same time to destroy Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop! In this way, the world will return to the heart, and the lord can take advantage of the situation to sweep away the inner and achieve a thousand years of hegemony! ”

Yuan Shao was overjoyed. Then he frowned slightly, "But Lu Bu is currently sitting in the annexation state, and it may not be easy to take the state!" ”

Tian Feng laughed, "The lord is too worried!" Lu Bu is a horse, what is there to be afraid of? Moreover, all the Taishou of the state did not accept Lu Bu, and the Taiyuan Taishou and the Shangdang Taishou were the henchmen of the lord! No one will help Lu Bu in the war! In addition, the lord can also send a secret envoy to contact Wu Tong, the Taishou of Yanmen County. This person was originally Ding Yuan's henchman, Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu, so this person hated Lu Bu to the core, if the Lord agreed with him to attack Lu Bu, he would definitely not refuse. At that time, the lord will send a large army to attack Lu Bu head-on, and Wu Tong will send troops to attack his flank, and he will definitely be able to destroy Lu Bu in one battle! As soon as Lu Bu is destroyed, Bingzhou will be in the lord's bag! ”

Yuan Shao stroked his palms excitedly and said, "Just follow Yuan Hao's plan!" ”

……

Look to the clouds.

"General, the prime minister has sent someone to deliver next month's money and food!" Song Xian hugged his fists.

"How much?"

"Like last month's delivery, it's only enough for 35,000 people."

Zhang Lang was furious, "Damn! He's afraid that I'll expand the army! Some of the generals were angry, and some of them looked puzzled. Gao Shun frowned and said: "The general is the prime minister's confidant, why is the prime minister like this?" Zhang Lang sneered, "Confidant? I'm afraid he doesn't think so anymore! Looking at Zhang Liao, "Wenyuan, how many troops do we have now?" "General Hui, our army now has a total of 36,000 infantry and 6,000 cavalry, a total of 42,000 men!"

Zhang Lang frowned and said: "These county guards in Bingzhou are also against us!" Damn it! ”

A herald rushed into the lobby in a panic and knelt down and said, "The general is not good! Yuan Shao's army is coming! ”

Zhang Lang frowned, and scolded angrily: "This Yuan Shao is really good at picking the time!" Then he asked the herald, "How many are there?" ”

"According to the report of the scouts at the front, there are 100,000 infantry troops and 50,000 horse troops, a total of 150,000 troops!"

The generals in the audience gasped.

Zhang Lang rubbed his forehead and felt a headache. The generals looked at Zhang Lang, waiting for his order. Zhang Lang raised his head and said contemptuously: "There are a lot of people!" But no matter how many sheep there are, they are no match for the tigers! Seeing Zhang Lang's very calm appearance, the generals immediately regained their calmness from a somewhat panicked mood.

Zhang Lang said to Song Xian: "Immediately inform the prime minister of this matter, and send my orders to Xihe County and Shangjun, and order the two counties to gather troops and horses to march east to respond to our army!" At the same time, they ordered Wuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Dingxiang County, Yanmen County and Shuofang County to lead their troops to Yanmen County to join our army! "No." Song Xian clenched his fists and agreed, and left quickly. Zhang Lang glanced at the generals, "The generals will return to the camp immediately, gather the sergeants, and prepare to go!" "No!"

In the dead of night, Zhang Lang stood alone in front of the map. He felt that the situation in front of him was hazy and could not see clearly.

Early the next morning, Zhang Lang led Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng to command an army of 40,000 and march towards Yanmen County. Gao Shun commanded 2,000 foot soldiers to stay in Yunzhong County to supervise the grain and grass.

A few days later, the army marched into Dingxiang County, and it was getting late, and the army camped by the Hunhe River.

"Wen Yuan, is there any news of the county guards?"

Zhang Liao shook his head, "There is no news yet." ”

A scout hurriedly rushed into the big tent and knelt down and said, "General Qiyu, Yuan Shao's army has passed through the Mayi of Yanmen County and is heading towards Dingxiang County!" ”

Zhang Lang was shocked, "What!?" After a pause, he said coldly: "Wu Tong must have colluded with Yuan Shao!" I should have thought of it a long time ago! Damn it! ”

Zhang Liao frowned and said: "The terrain of Yanmen County is dangerous, and it was originally an excellent barrier for Yuan Shao to defend, but now it is ......"

Zhang Lang got up and walked over to the map hanging on the side of the tent. Zhang Liao stood next to Zhang Lang and pointed to Ma Yi's location, "Ma Yi is here." Zhang Lang's gaze fell on Ma Yi, and then his gaze moved north to the junction of Yanmen County and Dingxiang County, "At this moment, Yuan Shao's forward cavalry may have entered Dingxiang!" Zhang Liao pointed to the Great Wall in the middle of Xiangjun, "Lord, we should occupy the Great Wall before Yuan Shao!" Zhang Lang nodded, turned around, and ordered: "Wen Yuan, you lead two thousand iron cavalry first, and be sure to occupy the Great Wall before Yuan Shao's army!" "No! Without further ado, the last general will immediately lead his army there! He turned and walked out of the tent quickly.

At this moment, on the grassland of Yanmen County, the forward composed of 10,000 iron horsemen was advancing north at full speed, and the leading general was Gao Lan, Yuan Shao's general.

The sun rises in the east and the earth sees again.

Gao Ran led 10,000 forward iron horsemen to climb the hill, and saw the Great Wall not far ahead, shining in the reflection of the rising sun.

Gao Ran smiled. Suddenly, a black figure appeared on the horizon, speeding forward, and there was a faint sound of thunder. Gao Ran exuded excitement and shouted, "The enemy is ahead!" Defeat the enemy with me! "10,000 soldiers shouted in unison, and the sound shook the sky! Then a cloud of smoke and dust rushed out.

The two thousand black iron horsemen in front of them quickly lined up into three charging lines in full speed running. A strong aura of iron blood rushed to his face! Gao Ran couldn't help but be shocked!

It only takes a moment, and the two are easy to take care of! Two thousand black-armored iron horsemen instantly smashed into Yuan Shao's cavalry with a momentum of no return, and Yuan Shao's cavalry was cut off one after another! Zhang Liao took the lead with a big sword, and there was no one in the place he passed! Yuan Shaojun's soldiers couldn't help but feel cowardly!

Zhang Liao killed Yuan Shaojun's cavalry and took Gao Ran directly, and Gao Ran was shocked. The two sides clashed for more than ten rounds, Zhang Liao rose up and slashed the spear in Gao Ran's hand, Gao Ran was shocked, and hurriedly turned the horse's head to flee for his life. Seeing this, Yuan Shao's cavalry had no heart to fight, so they threw away their armor and fled. Two thousand iron horsemen took the opportunity to cover up and kill, killing Yuan Shao's army corpses all over the field and crushing the army! After chasing for more than ten miles, Zhang Liao collected his troops.

Yuan Shao looked at the wolf who was kneeling under the tent with a grim face, "You! 10,000 cavalry were actually defeated by 2,000 cavalry of the other side! More than half of the losses! Break the heart of our army, and deserve to be punished for the crime! Come on, push me down and cut it! ”
