Chapter 349: The Alliance

The two of them discussed back and forth for nearly an hour, and then there was a reasonable result, Yuan Tan withdrew his troops to defend the enemy in Qingzhou, and during this time, Yuan Tan gave up the city conquered by Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shang wanted to give Yuan Tan some grain and grass.

Yuan Shang is in Jizhou, there is really no shortage of grain and grass for Yuan Shang, but Yuan Tan's Qingzhou is not, Qingzhou is very poor, and there is an urgent shortage of grain and grass, with these grains and grass, Yuan Tan can obviously breathe a sigh of relief, and Yuan Tan is also quite satisfied with this, after all, this campaign, he did not waste his efforts.

After Yuan Tan withdrew his troops, Yuan Shang contracted his army to prepare to deal with Cao's army, Du Chen was menacing, and it must be for the purpose of obtaining Jizhou and Hebei, but even if he contracted all his troops, he was not necessarily the opponent of Cao's army, so the two of them had to think of other countermeasures.

Although Hebei is still surnamed Yuan, it is obvious that Merge State and Youzhou will no longer obey Yuan Shang's orders, but now he needs to use the power of Youzhou and Merge State, not only Yuan Shang himself, but also obviously no match for Cao Jun.

With this idea, the two of them discussed with Yuan Shang, and the two of them asked Yuan Xi and Gao Gan for help respectively, hoping that Gao Gan and Yuan Xi could see the situation clearly and send reinforcements.

Yuan Xi of Youzhou said that although his relationship with Yuan Shang is not close, Yuan Xi is not the one who can't be saved when he sees death, and he should be able to get the desired effect when he asks for help, but for the senior cadres in Bingzhou, he doesn't dare to guarantee anything.

Although Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew, he is not surnamed Yuan after all, who knows if he will be united with Yuan Jun.

In fact, the trial was somewhat wronged by Gao Gan, and the Cao army originally attacked Liyang. Gao Gan wanted to lead the army to aid Liyang, but he didn't expect that Liyang didn't hold out for a few days, and the grain and grass of his army had not been prepared enough, and Liyang City had already changed hands and was conquered by Cao's army.

Gao Gan was very helpless, and his hard work became useless, but Gao Gan knew that Yuan Shang and others would come to ask him for help sooner or later, so it was not a problem for him to be the first to prepare, Gao Gan's idea was not wrong, and in less than half a month, Feng Ji, an important strategist around Yuan Shang, appeared in Bingzhou and appeared in front of Gao Gan.

The situation along the way made Feng Ji feel very surprised. Because in Feng Ji's view, it should not be a simple matter to ask Gao Gan to send troops, but the entire state is in a state of active preparation, which makes Feng Ji feel a little happy,

"I've seen and pastor." Looking at the senior cadre in front of him, Feng Ji said in a deep voice,

"Why does Yuantu need to be so polite, hurry up and speak." Gao Gan stepped forward and helped Feng Ji who was kneeling on the ground. Although he is a pastor of the state, this qiē achievement comes from Yuan Shao. Gao Gan is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, although Yuan Shao is dead, but he is still grateful.

He is just Yuan Shao's nephew, but Yuan Shao treats himself like a parent, and makes himself a state pastor.

See the table xiàn of the high cadre. Feng Ji faintly showed a smile, it seems that his visit will inevitably have an unexpected effect, with the support of senior cadres, gathering the power of Hebei Sanzhou, Feng Ji has the confidence to fight with Cao Jun.

"Presumably, my lord should be able to guess the purpose of Ki's visit today." Feng Ji said with a firm expression, no matter whether the senior cadres agree to send troops or not, he can't lose Yuan Shang's face, after all, Yuan Shang is his lord.

"What adults are not big or not, just call it a dry word." Gao Gan shook his hand and said: "Yuantu's intention is naturally known, in fact, he doesn't hide it from Yuantu, he has already planned to send troops to aid Liyang, but Liyang's defenders are too wasteful, and they only hold on for a few days, so that Gan is powerful and useless." ”

"Is what Yuan Cai said true?" Feng Ji Langsheng asked, Gao Gan's words were obviously a little unexpected to him, now Hebei is in chaos, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan's two biological sons of Yuan Shao are inseparable, but Gao Gan actually has the heart to help the defenders of Liyang,

Gao Gan glanced at Feng Ji seriously, and then said in a deep voice: "Does Yuan Tu think Gan is joking?" ”

Feng Ji secretly shook his head, but Gao Gan actually had a heart, which made Feng Ji feel very happy, "Since this is the case, then Ji will no longer talk nonsense, now that the Cao army is coming, the whole Hebei is in danger, what we can do is to concentrate our forces and defeat the Cao army." ”

Gao Gan nodded when he heard this, and then he heard Feng Ji say in a deep voice: "Liyang is the gateway for the Cao army to attack Hebei, and if Liyang is lost, it means that the gateway to Hebei is wide open, and the Cao army has the base of Liyang, so he can attack any place he wants to attack lightly." ”

"Now it is the vanguard army of the Cao army that occupies Liyang, about 30,000 people, and the commander is the captain Du Chen, and now Du Chen has taken Liyang, and now the Cao army is stationed in Liyang, one to recuperate, and the other is to wait for Cao Cao to lead reinforcements to come."

"According to the news, Cao Cao is gathering troops in Xuchang, the number of Cao's army is unknown, but it is obviously not less than Du Chen's 30,000 vanguard army, as long as Cao's reinforcements arrive, then they will launch a crazy attack on Hebei, and it will be very difficult to counterattack at that time."

"So Ji discussed with Zhengnan, instead of waiting for the Cao army to attack, you might as well take the initiative to attack, attack the Cao army, and take Liyang City, which was captured by the Cao army, only in this way can our army take the lead and have the ability to fight with the Cao army."

Gao Gan nodded when he heard this, the strength of the Cao army is a well-known thing, when Yuan Shao attacked Xuchang, he also sent troops to respond, but the Cao army had already made preparations, so he did not achieve any results, and returned in defeat.

Now Feng Ji's mention is obviously good, the entire Liyang is only 30,000 Cao troops, but if Yuan Shang Yuan Xi and himself really send troops together, it is obviously not difficult for the three parties to gather 60,000 or 70,000 people, not to mention anything else, just by merging their own states, Gao Gan can draw 30,000 soldiers to participate in the war.

"Yuan Tu's plan is very good, no matter whether Yuan Xi sends troops or not, my senior cadres are willing to lead an army of 30,000 to support Yuan Shang, and now our army is ready, as long as an order is given, the army can be pulled out and go straight to Liyang City." Gao Gan said with a firm expression, he has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and now he is finally here.

With the support of Gao Gan, Feng Ji's face blossomed, no matter what, with one more person to support, then Yuan Jun's chances of victory would be greater.

At the same time, the trial also discussed with Yuan Xi, but the trial was obviously a little disappointed, because Yuan Xi did not immediately agree to the trial, which made the trial very helpless, and he and Yuan Xi recounted the truth of the death of cold lips and teeth many times, but Yuan Xi obviously did not take it to heart.

In fact, Yuan Xi didn't care about the words of the match at all, but he was very worried in his heart, the strength of Cao Jun is well known, even if he unites with Yuan Shang, it is unknown whether he can defeat Cao Jun.

Even if he and Yuan Shang defeated Cao Jun with a loss of soldiers, if someone attacks him at this time, Youzhou is very likely to fall into the hands of others.

The trial was anxious to scratch his ears and cheeks, but Yuan Xi just didn't agree to send troops, which made the trial have no way, seeing that the deadline for negotiation was coming, if Yuan Xi really didn't send troops, then Yuan Shang alone would deal with Cao Jun, it would obviously be a fool's dream, and the move of hitting the stone with an egg, this is no victory at all,

At this time, the trial received a secret letter sent by Feng Ji, and after reading it, the judge's face changed, and with the secret letter in his hand, the trial went to see Yuan Xi.

The trial has asked to see himself many times in the past few days, and Yuan Xi has already seen it, but this time, the look of the trial is obviously a little different, a few days ago, the trial was eager, but today, he obviously had a hint of happiness on his face,

"Second son, I just received a letter from Yuan Tu, saying that the senior cadres of the state have agreed to send troops, and at this moment, the 30,000 troops of the state are already on standby, as long as the second prince agrees to send troops, the senior cadres will lead the army to Liyang City." The judge said with a happy face, I thought I was here for an idle job, but I didn't expect Feng Ji to be the most idle, he didn't say anything, Gao Ran agreed to send troops, and he spent a lot of tongue here, but it still hasn't been done,

Hearing that Gao Gan also sent troops together, Yuan Xi's face was obviously sideways, Gao Gan sent 30,000 troops, and he could at least take out 30,000 troops, and if Yuan Shang was mobilizing 30,000 troops, the coalition army would be nearly 100,000 strong, and if such an army attacked with all its might, it would obviously be easy to take Liyang City.

Yuan Xi pondered for a long time, and finally he took the case and said: "Since this is the case, then I will also lead an army of 30,000 to assist the third brother and attack the Cao army." ”

"It's a big deal." The judge said secretly in his heart, now Yuan Xi Gaolan and the two of them have sent 30,000 troops respectively, and Yuan Shang can naturally come up with 30,000 troops, and now it is related to Yuan Shang's own safety, so Yuan Shang naturally can't hide this battle, and he has to use his best strength to fight with Cao Jun.

An army of 30,000 seems to be a lot, but it is no problem to spread it evenly over the entire Jizhou.

Now the three states of Hebei are ready to work together to fight against the Cao army, and organized an army of nearly 100,000 people, which makes the judge see hope and see the hope of defeating the Cao army.

"Since the second prince has decided to send troops, it is worth going back to Jizhou here to tell the lord the good news." Yuan Xi's senior cadres are ready to send troops, then Jizhou obviously can't stand still, he wants to hurry up to Yecheng to prepare for the dispatch of troops, the fighter plane is fleeting, and when the Cao army reinforcements resist, then the Yuan army really has no chance.

However, what makes the trial feel relieved is that Cao Jun in Xuchang City has not made any moves, Cao Cao is very short of food, although he has eased up for a while, but this does not mean that he has fundamentally solved this problem, so Cao Jun will not be dispatched until the appropriate grain and grass are raised.
