Lu Weihuang is also a military general, and he also has no ability to calculate. But he also knows that when there is a major event, he will be in turmoil. He immediately replied: "General Yan, if the enemy chases them too hard, we will kill them." This can slow down the time for them to go back to report the news, so that even if the state army knows that we have returned to Youzhou, what can he do to me? ”

"Oh, you mean one and no more?" Yan Liang asked in surprise.

"Not bad." Lu Weihuang nodded, although doing so is likely to deepen the misunderstanding, and even from the initial unintentional to the current intention. It's just that the competition between the two sides is more important to strength. Generally speaking, Yuan Shao's strength is stronger than Zhang Chao's, and with this, even if they know, they are afraid that they will only suffer a dumb loss if they are too late.

Although this is not a good strategy, but after thinking about it, Yan Liang really has no better way, so he nodded and said, "That's all." In this way, this matter will be handed over to General Lu to handle. ”

"No." Seeing that his opinion was adopted, Lu Weihuang nodded and stepped back.

The three junzhou army scouts came, and they were indeed here to ask about the 100 labor soldiers. Before sending them, Jia Xu had guessed what the three of them might do, but he did it anyway. He promised the three of them that once they died, the family would have their own general to support them.

This is Jia Xu's strategy. He was called a poisoner, and so did his tactics.

In order to win, there is no means, this is Jia Xu's method. It is like sacrificing a hundred people first, sacrificing three people, and creating the fact that Yuan Shao's side will do it first to win the righteousness.

And the reason why Jia Xu tried again and again and again to do nothing, it was entirely because Zhang Chao wrote in his letter to him that he should not do anything here, otherwise, I am afraid that Yan Liang and others would not even be able to pass the level of Yin Pavilion City.

Zhang Chao's idea is not complicated. If he wants to fight, he would rather choose to fight in the opponent's territory, in this case, even if there is a loss, the loss is the other party. The advantage of this is that you can be at peace and recuperate in the future.

The three horsemen were killed, and Lu Weihuang personally took his own hands. He thought he could block the news by doing so, but he didn't know that everything he did was under Jia Xu's control. At this moment, the soldiers and horses of Yanmen County are marching towards Pingshu County, Dai County, which borders its territory.

After a full 30,000 reorganized elite Hun cavalry, under the leadership of Tai Shici, they came out day and night, and they were approaching unknowingly.

Not long after Lu Weihuang killed the three scouts of the Bingzhou army who came to inquire about the situation, Jia Xu and Huang Zhong took 5,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry and began to chase after Yan Liang's army.

As soon as Jia Xu and the others left the city, there were already scouts who reported the situation to Yan Liang. Knowing that the Bingzhou army had indeed chased after him, he hurriedly ordered the army to speed up the retreat.

One chased, the other fled, and the two armies walked out of the territory of Yanmen County and came to Youzhou Dai County.

Compared with the peaceful environment of Yanmen County, the weather in Daijun County is a little colder, and even the life of the people is also very hard.

This made Yan Liang's army, which was originally short of food and grass, starve all the way and retreated, and it was extremely difficult to find some grain and grass on the way.

Fortunately, when Yan Liang's army withdrew from Yanmen County, they saw that the Hezhou army was about to turn their faces, and they robbed some villages under Pingcheng, so they could barely cross the day.

Now that he had stepped into Daijun's territory, the gloom on Yan Liang's face disappeared, and was replaced by a wave of anger.

Yan Liang is a tiger general, with a heroic temperament, and there are not many things in the world that can make him afraid. But this time he did retreat without a fight, because he lacked confidence in his heart. He didn't want to go into the rear alone. Now that I'm back on my own turf, what's so scary?

After entering the Daijun area, he sent people and horses to inform Ma Yan, the general of the city defense in the nearby Pingshu County, and asked him to come with grain and grass as soon as possible. And he himself led more than 30,000 troops straight to the vicinity of Lingwu and began to set up camp, he wanted to see if the state army really rushed here to fight with him.

Ma Yan was Yuan Shao's general, and history later followed Yuan Shang and descended to Cao Cao.

And now, the wheel of history has not yet advanced, and he is still just Yuan Shao's general.

Ma Yan was stationed in Pingshu County and had 5,000 troops, in order to prevent the state army from taking action against Youzhou.

This was just a move by Yuan Shao after listening to the advice of his advisers, but he didn't think that Zhang Chao would really dare to invade here. After all, no matter in terms of strength or influence, the strength of the two is far from the same.

And now, he really received Yan Liang's order unexpectedly, immediately, Ma Yan left the county government officials in the city, and he took 5,000 soldiers to escort the grain and grass in the city and went straight to the land of Yan Liang's army.

What Ma Yan didn't expect was that not long after he left, Tai Shici rushed to the scene, and the sudden appearance of 30,000 iron cavalry made the officials dare not resist, and the soldiers took Pingshu County without blood. Because it is a county town surrounded by all sides, this meeting is not even revealing the news.

After the county seat of Pingshu was taken, it was equivalent to Yan Liang's back road to the north being cut off. He now either fights with the Bingzhou army led by Jia Xu, or he goes south from Zhongshan County (country) to return to Jizhou.

It's just this choice, and now Yan Liang doesn't know. On the contrary, after he learned from the mouth of the scout that the Bingzhou army only came out with 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry, he was still very confident, he had more than 30,000 troops, and with the reinforcements of Mayan, there were nearly 40,000 people, how could he be afraid of the 10,000 Bingzhou army that had been looked down upon?

After knowing that the other party had 5,000 cavalry, Yan Liang ordered the soldiers to make a horse rejection stake, prepare bows and arrows, and just wait for the arrival of the state army to give the other party a head-on attack.

While Yan Liang was preparing, Ma Yan arrived with five thousand soldiers, plus enough food and grass for a while.

Ma Yan led the troops to come, and after there was grain and grass, Yan Liang was full of confidence, and he even threatened in the big tent of the Chinese army, if the state army did not come, if they came, they would all be wiped out in the Youzhou territory, at that time, the general Zhang Chao knew, and he was helpless.

At this moment, Jia Xu and General Huang Zhong also went out of the Yanmen territory with an army of 10,000 and came to Youzhou.

Along the way, the army was looking for the intention of the lord Zhang Chao, and did not disturb the people. But they still see the life of the people.

To say that Youzhou and Bingzhou are neighbors and themselves, but seeing that the people in the bordering places are indeed living so hard, under the heavy taxes, even the income of a hard year is very little, Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and others are all in contemplation.

There is no comparison of anything, there is no win or loss, and I am used to staying in the Bingzhou area, thinking that the people of the world are living a happy and stable life. But when I really got out of there, I realized that this was not the case, and how happy the people of Bingzhou were.

"Strategist, these people's lives are so hard." Seeing all the way, Huang Zhong was moved by compassion, he was just a captain who guarded the city, and Zhang Chao valued him, so he was promoted to a general and lived a life without worrying about food and clothing, but in his bones, he was still a small people's mind, and he had a deep feeling for ordinary people.

"Yes, Yuan Benchu only knew about killing, but he didn't know about An Min, if this continues, the bigger the territory he occupies, the more difficult the life of the people will be." After Jia Xu saw the lives of the people, he also expressed his feelings.

Seeing that Jia Xu was thinking the same as himself, Huang Zhong took the opportunity to say, "Strategist, why don't we help them?" This time we brought a lot of military rations, so it's better to..."

"General Huang, military rations can't be distributed at will. Unless there is an order of the Lord. Hearing that Huang Zhong was thinking about military rations, Jia Xu hurriedly stopped it.

Being reminded by this, Huang Zhong immediately said with a ashamed face: "Yes, military advisor." It was me who was reckless. ”

Looking at Huang Zhong's ashamed state, after a long time of communication, Jia Xu, who also had a deep relationship between the two, couldn't bear to blame, but stroked his beard with his hand and said: "Hey, even if General Huang has such a heart, then you might as well persuade these people to go to Yanmen, the two places are already very close, go there, as long as they are hardworking, life will be better and better." ”

Jia Xu came up with an idea, which caused Huang Zhong to immediately rejoice and say: "Okay, so I will arrange someone to talk to the people." ”

"Well, remember one thing, you can tell them the policy, and if you have to go, you can arrange for them to go, but you must not force it, let alone use force to do it, otherwise, it will inevitably be true." Jia Xu was worried that Huang Zhong would be unstable in his urgency, so he instructed.

"Haha, don't worry, Zhong knows how to do it." Huang Zhong laughed, and then took his own soldiers to lobby the people.

And under Huang Zhong's bitter heart, especially when he said that Yanmen was a heaven-like existence, many people who couldn't live in the first place moved their minds. With the first person agreeing to go to Yanmen to have a look, the others began to follow suit.

In this way, there was such a scene, that is, where Jia Xu and Huang Zhong's army passed, they could see the people marching in groups in the direction of Yanmen behind them.

For all this, the scouts sent by Yan Liang also saw it clearly, and after they reported the matter back, they made a big tent in the army, which caused several generals to be angry.

Gao Lan, Lu Weihuang, and Ma Yan were all scolding the unkindness of the Bingzhou army, they actually shook the hearts of the people, did they want to make the entire Youzhou a no-man's land?
