The two fought to less than 20 times, Yu Ban resisted Yan Liang and couldn't help but lose, Yan Liang's bravery made him dare not go on any longer, because he didn't have the slightest hope of victory again, but it was just a waste of energy, but even if his strength was exhausted, it couldn't hurt Yan Liang at all, because he was not his opponent at all, Yan Liang's strength was far above himself, rather than doing a senseless struggle, it was better to take the initiative to quit, Yu Ban was an understanding person, so he sold a flaw and returned to his own position.

Yu Ban as the commander and Yan Liang duel, was defeated by Yan Liang, fled back to the formation, Yan Liang then rushed to kill the army morale is high regardless of the fatigue of crossing the river, shouting to the Yu Ban army to kill, Yu Ban's failure made his three thousand military horses have no fighting spirit, no strength to fight again, have run away, Yan Liang then led a large team of men and horses to cover and kill, as if devastated, Yu Ban's army killed and wounded countless people, three thousand military horses fled to the most Lu only less than a thousand people, the rest were either killed or surrendered.

Yan Liang's morale was greatly boosted in the first battle, not only successfully crossing the river but also defeating Yu Ban's attack in one fell swoop, at this time Yan Liang was more confident, and he was even more confident in attacking the white horse, Yan Liang's army settled down on the south bank of the river, ready to raise enough spirit to march to the white horse.

Yu Ban fled back to Baima with the remnants of the defeated general, Liu Yan saw that Yu Ban was defeated and returned, and did not get angry at him, Liu Yan was very calm and greeted the ban back to the camp, which made Yu Ban really a little puzzled, before the two of them fought because of his battle, he ignored Liu Yan's opposition and insisted on leading troops to stop Yan Liang, but he suffered a defeat, he thought that Liu Yan, as the main general, would make a big fuss with him, and unhappily put on small shoes for him to play with the trouble of him, but Liu Yan did not do this, not only did not lose his temper with him, but also comforted him. This greatly surprised Yu Ban, and the most important thing between the first and second leaders of "Family and Everything" is tacit understanding and unity. If there is chaos and contradictions inside, it will be a taboo for soldiers, and Yu Ban still understands this. This time he caught Liu Yan's "edge ball", and apologized deeply for the failure caused by his own insistence on doing things before, and the two quickly cleared up the misunderstanding, and began to study the next step together

Yu Ban said Liu Yandao: "Yan Liang's strength is outstanding, you and I can resist, the previous victory over the morale will definitely come to attack Baima, our troops are limited, I am afraid it will be a little difficult to resist Yan Liang!" ”

"The white horse is an important pass and cannot be easily lost, it must be defended. Our deep ditch barrier is mainly defensive, and we can't compete with him, so that we can contain Yan Liang! Liu Yan continued.

Yu nodded in agreement after hearing this, and the two reached an agreement by coincidence, and soon got busy, constantly strengthening the fortifications of the white horse, and waiting for Yan Liang in the deep ditch.

After repairing, Yan Liang's army quickly assembled again and couldn't wait to rush in the direction of the white horse, and more than 20,000 troops came to the white horse. Due to the new victory, the morale of Yan Liang's army was very high, and the fighting spirit was even stronger, and he came to Baima. Yan Liang was even more proud, but at this time, the periphery of the white horse had already strengthened the antlers and set up a stockade. Liu Yan and Yu Ban did not come out, because the wall was high. Fortifications of deep ditch ramparts, and the stockade was equipped with crossbowmen. Yan Liang's army was difficult to break through for a while.

Yan Liang was eager to fight, he thought that he would win the white horse in a short time with his own force, but he didn't expect Liu Yan and Yu Jian to be "shrunken turtles" when they closed the door, Yan Liang was an anxious son Seeing that the two of them were closed, he scolded outside the village, and let the soldiers take turns to shout and scold, but no matter how Yan Liang and the soldiers scolded, Yu Ban and Liu Yan just closed the door, Yan Liang couldn't help but be angry when he saw this, and he was going to take the soldiers to attack the village several times, but the fortifications of the village made Yan Liang unable to attack, Yan Liang was so anxious that he jumped on his horse outside the village and ran wildly, and asked the soldiers to change the law, but no matter how Yan Liang caught him, Liu Yan and Yu Ban were still indifferent.

Yan Liang saw that the two of them didn't know that this was the two of them doing active defense, avoiding fighting with themselves, that is, to fight a protracted war, Yan Liang knew in his heart that Yuan Shao was waiting to cross the river, and the white horse must be taken as soon as possible, Liu Yan did this because he figured this out, he was ready to kill time with himself like this, "Hmph! No way! Yan Liang surrounded the white horse after calculation, and he was going to cut off Liu Yan's peripheral supplies, trap Liu Yan alive, and then catch turtles in an urn.

Liu Yantun stationed in Baima, once the peripheral supply was cut off, the grain and grass soon came in a hurry, at this time Yan Liang's 20,000 army had already besieged the white horse, Liu Yan and Yu Ban discussed, Liu Yan said Yu Ban said: "At present, the White Horse is besieged in an emergency, if it is postponed again, we will have difficulty in supplying grain and grass, and I am afraid that the White Horse will be lost!" ”

"How should this matter be decided according to the general?" Yu Ban asked.

Liu Yan then said: "Once the white horse is lost, Yuan Shao is bound to successfully cross the river, and then advance to the official crossing Yanzhou is in danger, so the white horse must not be lost, and the top priority should be to send a detailed work out of the village to report the situation to the general, and the general should quickly increase the troops of the white horse to relieve the siege of the white horse!" ”

"I'll do it myself, and tonight I'll lead a few brothers to rush out of the city and go to the general for help!" Yu Ban Sui Dao.

Liu Yan looked at Yu Ban, his eyes were full of anticipation, he patted Yu Ban's shoulder and said, "Brother, please leave this matter to you!" ”

"Brother, don't worry!" Yu Ban said calmly.

After the two discussed, Yu Ban went down to prepare, the night moon and white wind were light, the sky was full of stars, occasionally heard the cries of various insects and birds, Liu Yan's Dazhai was still guarded by guards, under the night, Yu Ban wore black armor and led the war horse with a few attendants to the side of the village, and quietly opened the door of the village, Yu Ban Peili sword held a steel gun and hung on the horse, and several guards behind him also jumped on the horse and straddled the weapon, Yu Ban took the reins, and galloped to the south with lightning speed, at this time Yan Liang's army had surrounded the south, However, at midnight, the guards were all on duty and rotated, so there were not many guards, Yu Ban was the first to kill the general, Yan Liang's sentry saw this and wanted to come forward to block it, Yu Banma rushed to the front and poked directly with a steel gun to pick up more than a dozen people at once, and the guards behind followed up and slashed and killed, and soon tore a hole

Yu Ban's rash rush in and killed the guards again, this movement suddenly startled the army of Yan Liang's guards, and some soldiers shouted: "Oh no, the enemy has killed!" The calm night sky suddenly boiled, the shouts of the personnel and the neighing of the horses soon broke the calm night, and Yan Liang's army used their weapons to lead the horses and prepared to fight, but when they were dressed in battle and swarmed over, Yu Ban had already opened a bloody road, revealing the encirclement, Yan Liang's army saw Yu Ban kill out of the Lu and chased them from behind, but Yu Ban was fast, how could they catch up? However, the guards behind Yu Ban were not so lucky, and they were shot to death by the enemy soldiers who caught up behind, and as a result, Yu Ban, the only one left behind him, rushed out of Lu with a single gun.

Yu Ban revealed the encirclement and did not dare to slack off and go straight to Guandu, at this time Guandu Cao Cao was stationing troops, Yu Ban rushed to Guandu and went straight to Cao Cao's Chinese army tent, and walked straight in, at this time Cao Cao was discussing countermeasures with the strategists, but saw Yu Ban throwing his armor and rushing in, full of embarrassment, his face was already covered with smoke and dust, and he looked very embarrassed, Cao Cao saw Yu Ban so he asked: "Why are you so embarrassed?" ”

I saw Yu Ban kneeling on the ground with a "bang", and choked sadly: "Lord! Then he began to cry.

Cao Cao saw Yu Ban like this, so he walked down the case, walked to Yu Ban's side and asked majestically, "What's going on?" ”

"Yuan Shao's general Yan Liang successfully crossed the river from the west of the White Horse, I went to block the result and was defeated, Yan Liang's army took advantage of the victory to surround the White Horse, and now the peripheral supplies of the White Horse have all been cut off, and it will not be able to support it, I risked my life to come out of the siege to ask the lord for help, and I hope that the lord will quickly send troops to relieve the siege of the White Horse!" Yu Ban said tremblingly.

Cao Cao couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, but he quickly said calmly: "Go down and rest, let me think about this matter!" ”

Yuan Shao sent the vanguard general Yan Liang to besiege the white horse, it seems that Yuan Shao is ready to cross the river, once the white horse loses Yuan Shao's army can drive straight in, the consequences are unimaginable, as the first barrier to block Yuan Shao's south, the importance of the white horse's defense line is self-evident, so this barrier can not be lost, must be kept, Cao Cao thought of this and was ready to order troops to relieve the siege of the white horse, the strategist Xun Yu said to Cao Cao: "The lord is so rash to send troops to save the white horse?" ”

"Of course! White Horse is in a hurry, and the troops should be dispatched immediately! Cao Cao said calmly.

Xun You then said: "Yan Liang is the first fierce general under Yuan Shao," the head of the four court pillars in Hebei, the force is good, known as the "spirit official", it is enough to show his bravery, the previous Yu Ban General is to eat his loss, Yan Liang has surrounded the white horse, it is not so easy to take the force, not to mention rashly to rescue the white horse alarmed Yuan Shao on the north bank of the river, and lead Yuan Shao's army to cross the river to help Yan Liang, at that time, not only the white horse was in danger, even our support soldiers were bound to be passive, so to relieve the siege of the white horse, Yuan Shao must be led away, or Yan Liang was transferred, The current situation is that the two armies of Yuan Shao and Yan Liang have become a straight line, echoing across the river, and the two armies are each other's horns, if we attack Yan Liang, Yuan Shao's army will inevitably cross the river to support, so they must be divided and conquered, disperse their strength and then attack, then the siege of Baima can be solved! ”

"Tell me more!" Cao Cao said excitedly when he heard this.

Xun You continued to analyze: "I have a plan to give the lord a try!" Yan Liang's troops are white horses, and the siege is imminent, but he doesn't know that the border of Yanjin is unguarded, and it is empty all of a sudden, the lord can allocate a part of the troops to feint against Yanjin, this part of the troops does not need too much, but it must make a move, as soon as this force comes out, Yuan Shao will definitely let Yan Liang lead troops back to rescue Yanjin, for what? This Yanjin is located on the west side of Liyang City on the north bank of the Yellow River crossing, if we divide our troops into Yanjin, it will inevitably cause a threat to Liyang, which is like a stinger inserted into the right side of the enemy's heart, our purpose is to make Yuan Shao think that our main force is placed on the Yanjin side, Yuan Shao will not know the stakes, and will definitely let Yan Liang return to save Yanjin, but the lord actually puts the main force on the side of the white horse, giving Yan Liang a sudden attack, Yan Liang will be caught off guard by the lord's killing, and the siege of the white horse will be solved!
