On this day, it was pouring rain, and it was the most taboo day to go out.

But Chen Lan still had to flee in embarrassment.

After breaking through Bocai's ambush at the northern foot of Jiuli Mountain, Chen Lan only had more than three hundred loyal subordinates behind him.

Fortunately, Sanyang City is far away. Looking at the banner of Yuan Shujun, who was wet by the heavy rain on the head of the city, Chen Lan put her mind at ease and said happily to the people behind her: "We are about to arrive in Shanyang, and we can have a good rest at that time." ”

Everyone behind him was in high spirits when they heard this, but one of his subordinates hesitated: "General, the Yanzhou army has always been cunning, could it be that our Shanyang City has also been occupied by the Yanzhou army?" ”

Chen Lan grinned and touched the thigh on his hand, and reluctantly smiled: "The most taboo thing to do on the march is to waste food because of choking, you can't dare to let go because you are defeated once, if the Yanzhou army captures Shanyang City, there will definitely be traces of battle here, in a short period of time, the traces of the battle are impossible to be erased, of course, in this kind of rainy day, you can wash away the bloodstains, that's another matter, but the Yanzhou army is not a god, how can you know when it will rain?" ”

Everyone nodded.

Chen Lan said weakly: "And carrying the corpse is also a very time-consuming thing, hum!" Although there are only more than 5,000 people in our army in Shanyang City, the high walls of Shanyang City are thick, how can it be so easy to take down? Just now we have seen that Guan Hai, the first master of the Bocai army to attack the city, is in Feng County, and Bocai himself appeared in Jiuli Mountain, and there is also a think tank under his command Zang Ba by the river, and it must be Wu Dun and Yin Li's two people around Zang Ba, where is the Bocai army still has manpower and generals to attack Shanyang City? ”

The questioner admired: "The general is really like a god!" ”

Chen Lan said dejectedly: "If only I was really as powerful as you said, how could I be humiliated again and again at the hands of the Yanzhou army?" Bocai is worthy of being one of the famous generals in Yanzhou. Xu Ji's vision is really extraordinary, and Chen is ashamed. ”

When the people heard this, they were silent.

In the blink of an eye, you are under the city. Chen Lan shouted to the door: "Open the city gate quickly!" I'm Chen Lan! ”

The city gate slowly opened, and Chen Lan's team of sleepy horses rushed into Shanyang City like children of their own mother.

Behold. They were greeted not by the smiling faces of their own brigade, but by cold swords and guns.

As soon as he entered the city, Chen Lan and his subordinates were taken down by Qi Qi. At this time, even if Chen Lan wants to struggle, how can she have any strength?

Being pushed and shoved, Chen Lan and the others were taken to the conference hall.

At this time, there was a person standing in the council hall with his hands in his hands, this person was burly, far beyond ordinary people. Although he hadn't turned around, a fierce aura of siege had already hit his face.

Hearing the voice, the big man turned around and looked at the group of people below, without the slightest look of pity in his eyes, and said coldly: "Everyone else is escorted to me, General Chen stays, I want to have a good talk with him." ”

Chen Lan's subordinates were taken down, and the big man walked leisurely to Chen Lan's side. Untied the rope for Chen Lan, and said calmly: "I am Yanzhou Gaoshun." ”

Chen Lan was intimidated by Gao Shun's temperament that combined madness and reason, and at this time, her whole body was shocked when she heard this, and she looked at Gao Shun in front of her in disbelief. It took a long time to say in a hoarse voice: "Sound east and west!" Good strategy, it turns out that General Gao's large army has already been in Shanyang City, and there are only a small number of men and horses outside Nadong County! ”

Gao Shun glanced at Chen Lan. Nodding and saying, "General Chen Lan is really as far-sighted as the comments say, and he is not a stupid person like Chen Ji." ”

Chen Lan smiled bitterly when she heard this: "Yanzhou military soldiers are like gods. This skill is not worth it. After a pause, he couldn't help but say: "It's just that what to do with the bloodstains left by the general attacking the city outside the city?" Could it be that the general is sure that it will rain today? ”

Gao Shun glanced at Chen Lan noncommittally. said with a smile: "General Chen was born in a big family, of course he doesn't know the knowledge in farming, who said that the weather is unpredictable?" The so-called 'morning glow rain, sunset wind', of course, there are traces of solar terms. My father-in-law has arranged for a good hand in the army to observe the weather early, and then find a few experienced local farmers to confirm, what else can't be calculated? Hmph, what kind of bullshit emperor Yuan Shu of yours said is a gentleman with five virtues, this kind of seemingly superficial thing is just afraid of killing him, he can't say, where will he combine agricultural common sense with marching and combat like my lord's whimsy? ”

Chen Lan was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Gao Shun looked at Chen Lan and said with an incomprehensible smile: "I know that you still want to ask, we must have killed a lot of people in our attack on Shanyang, why did we clean up the battlefield in such a short time." ”

Chen Lan nodded involuntarily, Gao Shun smiled and said: "Calculate that it is raining today, it is the time of day, if you want to achieve the immediate effect, the location and people are indispensable, but our General Yuan Shu seems to have forgotten that many soldiers in our army are from Shanyang County, and the Yi nationality under my command is also from this place, and he is famous in Shanyang City......

Gao Shun didn't finish his sentence, Chen Lan's face turned pale, and he said in despair: "Inside and outside?!" ”

Gao Shun Ha said with a smile: "Of course, our army is besieging the city on all sides, feintting to attack Shanyang, the city is empty, how can you defend the city with only 5,000 men and horses?" It's impossible to break through. Your army will either die or surrender, and of course you will not know the news of the fall of Shanyang City in Ludao. ”

Chen Lan was silent for a long time, and said dejectedly: "I'm serving." ”

Gao Shun looked at Chen Lan and said with a smile: "I spent so many weeks just to see General Chen Lan. I hope to talk to General Chen Lan to see if there is any possibility of cooperation. ”

Chen Lan suddenly raised her head and stared at Gao Shun, her eyes full of hesitation.

Gao Shun looked at Chen Lan with a pair of tiger eyes. With a confident smile on his face, he said calmly to Chen Lan: "General Chen Lan, you don't have much of a choice. After speaking, he handed a letter to Chen Lan.

Chen Lan was inexplicable, and when she opened the letter to read it, she saw that it was her own handwriting, but she didn't know when she wrote it, because she had no impression of the content at all, and couldn't help but look at Gao Shun suspiciously.

Gao Shun said calmly: "The general doesn't need to be so suspicious, this letter is a letter forged by our army. ”

Chen Lan is also a smart person, think about it a little. Immediately frightened.

Gao Shun looked at Chen Lan, who was colorless, and said coldly: "Our army has already calculated all the back hands. He had a thousand clever ways to deal with Yuan Shu, and originally wanted to kill the general directly. Use forged letters to trick Yuan Shu out of the city, after all, no one knows the fact that Shanyang City fell into the hands of my Yanzhou army, the defenders in Shanyang City did not get rid of one, and the general led the remnants of the army to fall into the net, there is really no need to leave the general in the world, but I see that the general is really a talent, and I can't bear to watch the general go to a dead end, so I spend so much money with the general. ”

Chen Lan had completely given up resistance by this time, and smiled bitterly at Gao Shun: "The Yanzhou army is terrible. Even if Yuan Shu has more than 200,000 horses, I'm afraid it won't be enough for your Yanzhou army to fight. ”

When Gao Shun heard Chen Lan call Yuan Shu by his name, he knew that the other party had surrendered, nodded, and said to Chen Lan: "General Chen Lan, don't worry, your surrender to Yanzhou is highly confidential, and this news will not leak until the day when Yuan Shu is defeated, and it will naturally not affect your family." ”

Chen Lan was worried about this. Hearing this, I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately said, "I just don't know what General Gao Shun wants me to do?" After all, my Chen Lan's defeat and Chen Ji's death can't be hidden, how can the general deceive Yuan Shu? ”

Gao Shun said with an unfathomable smile: "As long as the matter of Shanyang City falling into the hands of our Yanzhou army is not known by Yuan Shu, I can play Yuan Shu to death!" Hum! Yuan Shu got the news. I would only think that it was just the Bocai army fighting against the two of you. Now Shanyang City is still nominally your Chen Lan's world. ”

Chen Lan put down her mind at this time, remembered something and said, "But what to do with the captives in Shanyang City?" I can't guarantee that there are no henchmen of Yuan Shu among these people. ”

Gao Shun smiled and said, "We will take all these captives and escort them to Bingzhou." What other tricks can they play? ”

"But," Chen Lan questioned, "we have to escort these captives secretly." In order to prevent them from escaping, the general must divide a large number of men. Moreover, the general has to fight against Yuan Shu again, and there is an army to contain Yuan Shu's army outside the city of Dongjun, and as far as I know, the general only has 30,000 men under his command, so it is really taboo for soldiers to disperse their forces in this way. ”

Gao Shun smiled and said, "This is not a problem, who said that I should use my own soldiers to escort these prisoners?" ”

Chen Lan was stunned and looked at Gao Shun, obviously not understanding what Gao Shun meant.

Gao Shun wore an unfathomable and profound expression, and said indifferently: "I'll talk about this later, but you have to write a letter to Yuan Shu for me first." ”

Chen Lan frowned and said, "Do you want to hide the war here?" This matter is very difficult, and it must be moderate, otherwise Yuan Shu will see the flaw. ”

Gao Shun silently thought about Xu Ji's instructions to him again in his heart, shook his head and said, "No, I want you to repay Yuan Shu with the truth." ”

Chen Lan was completely confused, and didn't understand what Gao Shun was thinking at all.

Gao Shun let out a long breath, and silently said in his heart: Lord, everything is what you expected. The battle between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain below is left to you!

In the early morning of the next day, Yuan Shu, who was in Dongjun City, received a letter from Chen Lan, which told in detail about Chen Ji's death in battle and his loss of Fengcheng in his plan.

All the things Chen Lan's letters tell are the truth, only one thing about Shanyang City is a lie, but mixed with many truths, where can Yuan Shu and his advisers distinguish clearly?

In her letter, Chen Lan asked Yuan Shu to immediately send troops to support Shanyang City, otherwise once the Bocai army attacked the city, there would only be more than 5,000 soldiers in Shanyang City, and they would not be able to defend it at all.

After reading the letter, Yuan Shu's brows tightened and he didn't make a sound.

General Yang, who had recovered from his injuries, said to Yuan Shu: "Shengshang, we must send troops to reinforce Shanyang City, if Shanyang City is lost, it will be very unfavorable to my entire Yanzhou war situation, once the Bocai army occupies Shanyang City, it will be united with the Gaoshun army, at that time, there is a Gaoshun army in Dongjun to contain the Shengshang, so that the Shengshang's army in the Dongjun does not dare to go out of the city easily, the Bocai army can calmly break the other cities controlled by our army one by one, and finally turn my Dongjun into a lonely city, at that time it is really a big deal." ”

When Yuan Shu heard this, his face turned white. Before he could speak, Yan Xiang, who was on the side, said: "Lord Yang is reasonable, but this is not the most dangerous, now I am most afraid that after Xiao County, Xiang County and Xiyang are lost, the Bocai army will drive straight in." Through Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain, he went straight behind my army and burned my grain and grass. Attack Wuping, so so. Our army will be homeless, and now the movement of the Yanzhou army is unknown, and I don't know what strategy this wave of talented troops will adopt, and the lord had better take a two-pronged approach to prevent trouble before it happens. ”

Yuan Shu was already a master of the six gods at this time, and when he heard this, he asked anxiously: "Will the plan be released?" ”

Yan Xiang snorted coldly and said, "The lord now immediately orders General Liang Gang, who is defending in Juye City, to bring troops to Shanyang City for reinforcements, so as to ensure that Shanyang City is not lost." ”

Yuan Shu nodded, and Yan Xiang said again: "Then order General Ji Ling to transfer troops from Jiyin and pass through Qixiang and Liuxian." Secretly penetrated between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain, and attacked Xiao County soon after. ”

Everyone looked at Yan Xiang inexplicably, and Yan Xiang said in a deep voice: "Chen Ji's stupid man has died, and it is a foregone conclusion that the Bocai army will occupy Xiao County, Xiang County and Xiyang, if our army is now transferred from the North Chenliu area, it will be a little too late to rescue, and South Chenliu is the place where Xu Ji started, and it is extremely dangerous for us to control North Chenliu, once the army is deployed, I am even more afraid that Chen Liu's will lose." Moreover, although the Bocai army has the opportunity to surprise our rear, if it does so, the Bocai army will definitely become a lone army, and it is so unfavorable to him that he will not take such a big risk for many years. ”

Everyone nodded in thought.

Yan Xiang snorted coldly: "So the Bocai army must have also made two preparations. On the one hand, attack Shanyang City to see if our army will send troops to rescue, if not. took Shanyang in one fell swoop and Gao Shun's army echoed each other, and there was a situation that Lord Yang was worried about; If our army sends troops to the rescue. He will send troops to attack our rear through Xiangxian and other places, if so. Wouldn't it be wonderful that we could take advantage of the fact that the Bocai army was attacking the rear of our army, Wuping, and then cut off the back road of the Bocai army? ”

Everyone applauded, and Ji Ling was convinced: "Mr. Yan Xiang's plan is brilliant, it is clearly the reappearance of encircling Wei to save Zhao, if we can take advantage of the time when the Bocai army attacks the rear of our army, and then set up an ambush, we will definitely make the Bocai who returned to the division to rescue suffer a big loss." ”

Yuan Shu listened to Ha Lu Ha Da Lang's laughter, slapped the table, and shouted: "That's it!" ”

"But," General Yang frowned, "Jiyin's army has been emptied, who will hand over the river defense along Jiyin?" Liang Xi's movements on the other side of the river are unknown, he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what if, what if Liang Xi crosses the river here? ”

Yan Xiang smiled and said, "We can hand over Jiyin to Zhang Yan to guard, Zhang Yan and Liang Xi are mortal enemies, Zhang Yan will definitely be very interested in this task." ”

Everyone nodded.

Yuan Shu stood up and snorted coldly: "Just do what Yan Xiang said, hum!" Bocai! It's just the remnants of the yellow scarf, Xu Ji spared your dog's life, but the widow wants you to look good! ”

The situation in Yanzhou, which was originally clearly divided, began to become chaotic.

In the next two days, Yuan Shu received the elimination from Xiao County and Xiang County: because of Chen Ji's death, the two places were lost, most of the defenders in the three places were captured by the Yanzhou army, and only a small group of people and horses in Xiao County fled back from between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain, and the defenders of Xiangxian County could not stand on it, and fled back from the southern foot of Mangdang Mountain, crying to Yuan Shu about the fiasco of the two places. Fortunately, Yuan Shu listened to Yan Xiang's advice and was prepared, and transferred a large number of troops from Wuping to defend Xiyang, which was able to withstand the offensive of Bocai's army, but the situation was not optimistic.

Of course, the soldiers who fled back from Xiao County couldn't hide it from Xu Ji when they passed between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain, but Xu Ji didn't move, because Xu Ji's goal was not to defeat these remnants.

At the same time, Chen Lan's "distress letter" once again came from Shanyang City, saying that Guan Hai, who was under the Yanzhou Bocai army, was very urgent to attack Shanyang City, and asked Yuan Shu to send reinforcements immediately.

Yuan Shu saw that most of the development of the matter was the same as Yan Xiang expected, so he relieved himself and dispatched his troops. Ordered Liang Gang to transfer troops from Dingtao and other places to rescue Chen Lan.

At the same time, Yuan Shu ordered his number one general, Ji Ling, to lead 10,000 elite soldiers and penetrate directly between Mangdang Mountain and Jiuli Mountain.

And Jiyin was handed over to Zhang Yan.

Yan Xiang thought that this was the proud work of his life, but he didn't know that this was the biggest failure of his life.

Zhang Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he got the news, this matter was really unwanted, if he was to guard Jiyin, wouldn't the army of Liang Xi's army on the other side of the river be able to come and go freely?

Where would Zhang Yan, who received Yuan Shu's order, be polite? Of course, it is directly stationed in Jiyin City.

In fact, before Zhang Yan entered Jiyin, he had already covered the 15,000 people led by Xu Hao under Liang Xi to cross the river in the north of Dongjun City at night, and then went straight to Shanyang City.

After Gao Shun saw this army, he divided this army into two, and an army of 3,000 men escorted the 5,000 captives of Shanyang City, bypassed Wenshui and Surabaya, and went straight to Xuzhou, where they were handed over to Guo Jia and Yu to be recruited.

The remaining 12,000 people, along with Xu Hao, were left behind and stationed in Shanyang City, which was called Chen Lan's troops.

Although Chen Lan didn't understand where this army came from, as soon as she saw this army, she knew that the Yanzhou army had other arrangements, so why didn't she give up and cooperate with Gao Shun? It is precisely because of this that there are two letters to Yuan Shu.

At this point, under Xu Ji's plan and the continuous mobilization of Gao Shun and others, Yuan Shu's army began to be exhausted, and there was finally a loophole in the defense.

But Xu Ji's eyes were not limited to Yanzhou.

Not long after the Bocai army entered Yanzhou, Guo Jia launched Xu Ji's plan and launched a campaign against the new Xuzhou assassin Cao Bao in Xuzhou, and claimed that the Que Xuan rebellion incident that occurred in Xuzhou not long ago was instigated by Cao Bao.

As soon as these words came out, Xuzhou immediately set off an uproar.

The enemies of the Cao family in Xuzhou attacked Cao Bao in groups, and they did not cooperate with Cao Bao, making Cao Bao anxious.

Of course, Guo Jia had no interest in Xuzhou, his purpose was to disrupt Chang'an and intensify the conflict between Wang Yun and Lü Bu.

For a time, the situation in the world became even more turbulent.

At this time, Xu Ji was quietly waiting for the arrival of Ji Ling's army between Jiuli Mountain and Mangdang Mountain (to be continued......
