Seeing that Yuan Shao agreed to his request, Du Chen's heart was slightly relieved. Yuan Shao finally agreed, and Cao Jun's grain and grass matter could be relieved. With the grain and grass given by Yuan Jun, Cao Jun will not be worried about the grain and grass for a while.

However, for the sake of Yuan Jun's food and grass, Du Chen also needs to work hard. After all, eating people has a short mouth, and taking other people's hands is short, so if you receive Yuan Jun's grain and grass, then you have to do your best to take Youzhou.

However, for this, Du Chen is not very worried. Gongsun Chan has been disabled by the Yuan army, especially the cavalry he relied on for survival was wiped out by the Yuan army, and his general Zhao Yun was also abandoned by him that night, so Du Chen would not be afraid of Gongsun Chan. How could Gongsun Zhan, who had no cavalry, be the opponent of Cao's army.

Even if Gongsun Chan has the benefits of the city, then he is still not Cao Jun's opponent. After all, Du Chen was very confident in Cao Jun's combat effectiveness, so he didn't look at Gongsun Zhan in his eyes. As long as Cao's army pressed the border, Gongsun Zhan had absolutely no possibility of resisting.

Yuan Shao agreed to Du Chen's request, but he also had his own requirements, that is, only when Cao Jun conquered Yijing under Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Jun promised to give grain and grass to Cao Jun.

Regarding Yuan Shao's request, Du Chen did not refuse. After all, he can't empty the white wolf, after all, Yuan Shao is not a fool, he is also the master who doesn't see rabbits and eagles, and if he doesn't have any benefits, he naturally won't pay too much.

The atmosphere of the next banquet was much better, Du Chen got what he wanted, and Yuan Shao also got what he wanted. So these two people are naturally in a very good mood.

Du Chen and Yuan Shao were in a good mood, and no one at the banquet would advise them anymore, at least they wouldn't say anything in front of Du Chen. After all, Du Chen is the hero of Yuan Jun, and there are many things to count on him in the future.

In the following days, Yuan Jun was recuperating and recuperating, while Cao Jun was actively preparing for war. Although frustrated Tian Feng and others admonished Yuan Shao. But Yuan Shao has made up his mind, he has no time to wait for Yuan Junhui to take Youzhou again, he wants to take Youzhou now, even if he loses some grain and grass, he doesn't care.

Yuan Shao had already made up his mind in his heart, and no matter how much he said to him, it would be useless, and the final result would be to annoy Yuan Shao. If it weren't for Du Chen, he would still be in the Yuan army camp. The angry Yuan Shao is likely to arrest Tian Feng and others.

After a period of preparation, Cao Jun was finally well prepared. For the expedition to Gongsun Zhan, Du Chen's heart was full of confidence. At this time, what he wanted to do was to take Yi Jing as soon as possible, and then return to the court.

He also came out for a while, and during this time, Du Chen missed his parents, wife and children very much. Presumably, in addition to himself, the other soldiers of Cao's army must also want to end the war and then return to the court.

The army was opened, but it was not only Cao's army. Although Yuan Shao suffered heavy losses, he still sent a group of elites to accompany Cao's army. And the commander of this Yuan army is Yuan Shao himself.

Yuan Shao's heart was impatient, he won Youzhou, he was the number one prince in the world, and every time he thought of this, Yuan Shao's mood couldn't help but be excited. Therefore, Yuan Shao wanted to personally witness the demise of Gongsun Zhan and witness himself becoming the number one prince in the world.

Regarding Yuan Jun's actions, Du Chen was not disgusted. On the contrary, it is 120,000 points of support. The more soldiers there are, the more advantageous they are in war. And. Yuan Jun can be used as cannon fodder, allowing them to fight to the death with Gongsun Zhan, while he enjoys his success.

But the idea is very good, but Yuan Jun may not be the wronged leader. After all, Yuan Jun's Tian Feng and others are all talents, so when they encounter such a thing, they will definitely not let it go. But even so, Yuan Jun was still able to ask Yuan Jun to disperse Gongsun Zhan's forces, which had some effect.

No matter what kind of thoughts everyone has, everyone has one idea, that is, to conquer Yijing. Then kill Gongsun Zhan.

Gongsun Chan did not have a suitable heir, as long as Gongsun Chan died and the lights went out, then Youzhou could be zoned to Yuan Jun's territory. Therefore, for the life and death of Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao is definitely determined to win.

In this regard, Gongsun Zhan obviously knows very well that Yijing is the last fortress in Youzhou, and only by holding Yijing can there be hope for the war. But if Yi Jing misses, then he will definitely have no hope of turning over.

Therefore, since the defeat and withdrawal of the army at Jieqiao, Gongsun Chan has been ordering people to strengthen Yi Jing's garrison. Whether it was to send soldiers to garrison Yijing, or to increase the garrison force on the wall of Yijing City, Gongsun Chan did it himself.

Yi Jing will definitely be a decisive battle, Gongsun Zhan will not give up Yi Jing lightly, and Yuan Jun will naturally take it as his responsibility to conquer Yi Jing. Therefore, the battle for Yi Jing is definitely the most tragic battle on the entire Youzhou battlefield.

The Cao Yuan coalition was invincible, and there were no Gongsun Zhan's soldiers who could stop them wherever they went. The army marched north until it reached Yijing, where it stopped holding back the troops.

Looking at Yi Jing's tall city walls, Du Chen knew that this battle must be very difficult. Now, Gongsun Chan has reached the last moment of life and death, Yi Jing is his hope to turn over and set up his life, if Yi Jing is conquered by Cao Yuan's coalition army, then he can only surrender all the way.

Looking back at history, Gongsun Chan died by self-immolation in Yijing City. When Yuan Shao's army besieged Gongsun Chan and Yijing City, Gongsun Chan was isolated and helpless, and was attacked by Yuan's army, suffering heavy casualties, and seeing that he was unable to turn over, Gongsun Chan first killed his wife and children, and then set himself on fire.

Speaking of this, Du Chen admired Gongsun Zhan's ruthlessness very much. However, Du Chen really didn't dare to agree with Gongsun Zhan's approach. However, for a generation of heroes, such a result is probably the best result.

Instead of being defeated and captured, it is better to learn from the overlord of Western Chu and kill himself more heroically. However, what Gongsun Chan did can only prove that he is a hegemon, not a king. The real kings often know forbearance.

Whether it is Gou Jian, the king of Yue, or Liu Bei, the founding emperor of Shu Han, these are all people who know how to forbear, and in the end, their achievements are far greater than the humiliation they have received.

However, for Gongsun Zhan, the cavalry he relied on for survival had been exhausted, and it was impossible to regain his pre-war strength. After all, those cavalry have followed Gongsun Chan for many years, and they will no longer have any combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

The main force was annihilated, and Gongsun Zhan's mood was somewhat disheartened. If he is hit by the destruction of his character in Yijing in the future, it is not uncommon for him to have a mental breakdown and cause suicide.

But now is not the time to think about this, Yi Jing is Gongsun Zhan's base, and it is definitely a very difficult thing to take down Yi Jing. Even if Cao's army was strong in combat, Du Chen did not dare to assert that he would conquer Yijing City in a short period of time and capture Gongsun Zan alive.

Today's road can only be taken step by step, and if you want to win Yijing City, you still need to think long-term.

Yi Jing is a majestic city built by Gongsun Zhan, and the purpose of building Yi Jing is to garrison troops to resist the advance of Yuan's army. Therefore, Yijing is a fortress, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the city walls are high and thick, which is definitely not easy to overcome.

If Yi Jing can really overcome it easily, then Gongsun Zhan's efforts over the years will be like a laughing stock.

Gongsun Chan is a character, Du Chen didn't think he would be stupid to this point, and the fortress he built with great effort was easily conquered by Cao Jun. Therefore, Yijing Fortress is indeed Gongsun Zhan's last reliance.

But no matter what, Yi Jing has to conquer it himself. Although there are many difficulties, Du Chen will definitely do his best.

In the following days, Du Chen ordered people to surround Yijing City, but he did not order the siege of the city. After all, the number of Cao Yuan's allied forces was far superior to that of Gongsun Zhan, so it didn't have much impact to surround Yi Jing.

Moreover, this point has also been recognized by Yuan Shao. In this battle, Yuan Shao definitely wanted to capture Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop, and only in this way could Youzhou be completely under his command. Gongsun Chan is a hidden danger, only by eliminating it can he feel at ease, otherwise, Yuan Shao's heart will definitely not settle down.

And in Yijing City, Gongsun Zhan saw that Yuan Jun surrounded him, but he didn't have too much to worry about. Yi Jing is a fortress, which he built specifically to prevent Yuan Shao, so the facilities and grain and grass in the city are enough to squander.

Moreover, under the city is the Cao Yuan coalition army. If the city was only an army of Yuan Jun or Cao Jun, then Gongsun Chan might still be a little worried in his heart, but in the face of two reinforcements, even though the number of coalition forces far exceeded his own, Gongsun Chan thought that he still had the strength to fight.

However, Gongsun Zhan's idea is also good, and the alliance of the two armies will inevitably not achieve the unification of orders. Yuan Jun would not obey Cao Jun's arrangement, and Cao Jun would not obey Yuan Jun's will.

Moreover, Cao Jun came to aid Yuan Jun, so naturally they would not do their best. In the battle of the Celestial Bridge, it can be seen from Cao Jun letting himself go that Cao Jun's idea is to preserve his strength, not to fight with himself.

Since he knew that Cao Jun was thinking like this, even if Yi Jing really couldn't hold it, he could still choose to break through in the position defended by Cao Jun. It is expected that Cao Jun will not fight hard with himself, so if he wants to break through, there is still a certain possibility.

Cao's army besieged but did not attack, which made Yuan Shao a little anxious. A while ago, the coalition army attacked fiercely, and in a short time, they conquered many cities in Gongsun Zhan, which made Yuan Shao's mood naturally very good.

Now that he has finally arrived at Yijing City, what Yuan Shao wants most in his heart is to conquer Yijing in a short period of time and capture Gongsun Zan alive. Therefore, for the fact that Cao's army was besieging but not attacking, Yuan Shao naturally couldn't accept it.

Although he was quite dissatisfied in his heart, Yuan Shaoke had no way. The commander of the Cao army was Du Chen, and the Cao army was also led by Du Chen, and Yuan Shao asked himself if he had the right to command Du Chen.

So even though he was very dissatisfied in his heart, Yuan Shao could only endure it silently. (To be continued......)
