In the distance, a piece of battle flags fluttered in the wind, and outside the Yamen of the Luoyang Army barracks, Gongsun Du and Gongsun Lan, who had just visited Liu Wei, turned over and jumped on the war horses brought for them by the accompanying guards.

"Father, what do you think of the King of Luoyang?" Riding on horseback, surrounded by a team of guards, the father and daughter slowly walked towards the direction where the Liaodong Army was stationed, and after walking not far, Gongsun Lan turned her head to look at Gongsun Du, who was riding with her, and asked.

"Scheming, immeasurable!" Frowning slightly, Gongsun Du looked ahead, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said to Gongsun Lan: "Don't be an enemy of the King of Luoyang in the future!" ”

"The king of Luoyang has the heart to hand over Youzhou to Yuan Shao! If it is so difficult to deal with, it may not be easy to get benefits from him! Turning his head to look at Gongsun Du, Gongsun Lan said with a little unwillingness: "My Liaodong army is going out this time, and if I don't occupy a place in Youzhou, won't I return in vain?" ”

"Huh!" As soon as Gongsun Lan's words fell, Gongsun Du waved his hand at her with a smile and said to her: "Lan'er knows that the king of Luoyang has arrived in the city, but why doesn't he enter the city?" ”

"Didn't he already promise his father to enter the city early tomorrow morning?" Gongsun Du suddenly mentioned that the king of Luoyang would not enter the city, Gongsun Lan tightly twisted his willow eyebrows, and said to Gongsun Du: "Could it be that there is another deep meaning here?" ”

"The king of Luoyang is waiting, waiting and seeing, there is a conflict between us and the Yuan brothers! What he wants is peace in Youzhou, so as to control the princes of the Central Plains. We only need a little stir-up to show that we need some good! While walking forward slowly, Gongsun Du squinted his eyes slightly, and said to Gongsun Lan: "When you return to the barracks later, you will immediately arrange some soldiers to capture a few soldiers of the Yuan family between the Jizhou army and our army's garrison, and you must explain clearly to the people who do it, and you must not hurt their lives!" ”

"No!" Gongsun Lan Bingxue is smart, Gongsun Du's words are already clear, she immediately understood the deep meaning, hurriedly responded, followed Gongsun Du, and sped up some speed towards the military camp of the Liaodong Army.

More than half an hour later, in an open space between the Liaodong Army Camp and the Jizhou Army Camp.

Three soldiers of the Jizhou Army, holding bows and arrows, crouched in the grass with their cats' waists, quietly looking at a grass cave not far ahead.

The grass would shake twice from time to time, and when the blades of grass shook, it made a "rustling" sound completely different from when the wind swept by.

The Jizhou soldier lying on the far left is a half-grown child of about fifteen or sixteen years old. When the grass was moving, he clenched his fists tightly, stared ahead without blinking a pair of eyes, and beads of sweat were clenched in his palms.

Lying beside him was a veteran in his thirties. Feeling the nervous trembling of the young soldier on the side, the veteran stretched out his hand and squeezed it into the young soldier's hand.

The hand was pinched by the veteran, and the young soldier turned his head cautiously and glanced at the veteran, although he did not speak, his eyes showed a little gratitude.

"Collapse!" Just as he was turning his head to look at the veteran soldier on the side, another Jizhou soldier who had drawn the longbow into the shape of a full moon suddenly let go of the hand holding the bowstring, and with a trembling sound of the bowstring, an arrow flew through the grass like lightning and flew towards the trembling grass.

"Shot, shot!" The arrow flew into the grass, and then a rabbit with a feather arrow jumped out of the grass, and fell to the ground and died without jumping two steps.

"Stop!" As soon as they ran to the rabbit that was shot to death, several Liaodong soldiers who had long been dormant in the grass jumped up and surrounded the Jizhou soldiers who had just bent down and carried the dead rabbit in their hands.

"When I went to the garrison of my Liaodong Army, I dared to open my bow and shoot arrows and capture them!" The officer who led this group of Liaodong Army strode up to the young soldier, snatched the dead rabbit with arrows stuck in his hand from him, and whispered to the soldiers of the Liaodong Army behind him.

More than a dozen soldiers of the Liaodong Army responded in unison, and six or seven of them turned to the two Jizhou soldiers who were stunned over there and watched their companions being caught by the Liaodong Army, but they didn't know what was happening.

Several Liaodong soldiers rushed to the side of the two Jizhou soldiers, and two of them jumped behind the two Jizhou soldiers, raised their feet and kicked them in the crook of the leg.

The leg was kicked in the bend of the leg, and the two Jizhou soldiers knelt on the ground, and just as they were about to stand up and reason with the Liaodong army, several other Liaodong soldiers stepped forward and pressed their shoulders, and then twisted their arms behind their backs.

"What are you waiting for?" Twisting his arm, a Jizhou soldier turned his head to stare at the leading Liaodong army, and shouted at him: "This is the junction of the two armies, we just came to capture a rabbit to give the brothers a tooth sacrifice, why capture us?" ”

"Take it away!" Since the place where these three soldiers were captured was very close to the Jizhou army camp, the officers of the Liaodong Army did not dare to delay for too long, for fear that something would happen, so they waved at the Liaodong Army who had restrained those soldiers and ordered them to be taken away immediately.

"Stop!" Just when the Liaodong Army captured people and wanted to take them away, there was a loud shout from the direction of the Jizhou Army barracks, and a military general led dozens of Jizhou soldiers and ran towards them quickly.

Seeing that the Jizhou army was coming, the leading Liaodong Army officer hurriedly waved his hand, took the more than ten Liaodong troops, escorted the three Jizhou soldiers captured by them, and quickly ran towards the military camp of the Liaodong Army.

The three Jizhou soldiers who were twisted by them were dragged forward and struggled, trying to break free from the control of the Liaodong Army.

But after all, there were many people in the Liaodong Army, and their struggle seemed very weak, and they were finally dragged to the military camp of the Liaodong Army.

Leading a team of Jizhou soldiers came over was a burly general with a full beard and many folds on his face.

Rushing to the place where the Jizhou soldiers were captured just now, the general stopped and shouted to the group of soldiers who followed behind him: "Go back!" Gather your troops and horses, and go with General Ben to ask for someone! ”

"No!" Seeing that their companions were captured by the Liaodong Army, this group of Jizhou soldiers was already full of righteous indignation, and they were all gearing up, waiting for someone to call the shots and lead them to fight with the Liaodong Army.

Several soldiers of the Jizhou Army were running back, and a fast horse rushed out of the Jizhou Army barracks, and sitting on the horseback was Yuan Xi, who had previously gone to the Luoyang Army Barracks and complained to Liu.

"Wait and stay!" Rushing out of the Jizhou army barracks, Yuan Xi rode his horse and galloped towards the general who led dozens of soldiers to chase the Liaodong Army, while drinking the soldiers who planned to go back to call people, and shouted to the general: "General Wenchou! His Royal Highness the King of Luoyang has already set up camp, and we can ask His Highness for justice, don't make a mistake! ”

Hearing Yuan Xi's shout, Wen Chou's brows tightened, and when he saw that the soldiers who were about to return to the barracks stopped, twisted their brows, and drank to the soldiers: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Why don't you go back and call someone! ”

was drunk by Wen Chou, and the few Jizhou soldiers who had stopped and were full of unwillingness suddenly became overjoyed, and then ignored Yuan Xi at the moment, and hurriedly turned his head and ran towards the military camp.

Seeing those soldiers running in the direction of the barracks, Yuan Xi was also helpless. Although he is the second son of Yuan Shao, his prestige in the army is far lower than that of Wen Chou, who is one of the four court pillars in Hebei.

Hebei famous generals, although they are known as the four court pillars, the prestige of Gao Ran and Zhang He is just ordinary, and they have to take care of some Yuan brothers on weekdays.

But Yan Liang and Wen Chou, because they have been leading the army to fight all the year round, have a very close relationship with each other, and they have always been relied on by Yuan Shao, and they don't think very much of Yuan Shao's sons.

Seeing that his soldiers were captured by the Liaodong Army, Wen Chou was already furious, and when he waited for the horses to arrive, he wanted to kill the Liaodong Army in one fell swoop, rescue the people, and earn back face. Where would you listen to what Yuan Xi said to him.

When Yuan Xi drank those few soldiers who reported the news, he even gave Yuan Xi a faceless.

Riding a horse and rushing to Wen Chou's approach, although Yuan Xi felt that his face was a little unbearable, he still held the reins, looked down at Wen Chou who was standing next to the horse and said: "General, Gongsun Du is trying to provoke our anger, so that he can profit from it." The general can't bear it for a while, and he will definitely break a big deal! ”

"Big deal? Bird Event! Wen Chou crossed his waist with his hands, looked up at Yuan Xi who was still riding on horseback, stared at him, and yelled at him: "The Liaodong army has just captured three soldiers of our army, and the son should know that if he doesn't get those soldiers back, how can the soldiers be convinced?" Childe is afraid of causing trouble, but the last general is not afraid! When the general rescued those soldiers at the end, he twisted Gongsun Du's head and gave Gongzi a night incense! ”

"Never!" knew that if he didn't stop it, with Wen Chou's fiery temperament, he would definitely cause a big disaster, and as soon as Wen Chou's words fell, Yuan Xi hurriedly shouted: "The general must not be so reckless......

"What a recklessness!" Yuan Xi's shout had not yet fallen, and there was a sound of horses' hooves behind him, and two Jizhou army generals wearing scaly armor were riding their horses towards Yuan Xi's side, and the two of them were running wildly, and the person who ran in front shouted at the same time: "If the elder brother is unwilling to take on this role, the younger brother will bear it!" ”

It was not someone else who was riding a horse and running in front, it was Yuan Xi's third brother Yuan Shang, the general who followed behind Yuan Shang, his physique was almost the same as Wen Chou, but the skin on his face was much more delicate than Wen Chou.

The general's face was slightly purple, and on his chin was a beard about five or six inches old, which was not very long.

"Third brother, General Yan Liang!" Hearing the shout, Yuan Xi turned his head and arched his fist to the two people who had just reined in the horse, and said to Yuan Shang: "The third brother is fallacious, if our army is approaching the Liaodong army in a big way, it is difficult for the two sides to guarantee that there will be no fight, and His Royal Highness will ......blame it at that time."

"I have respected my second brother since I was a child!" Without waiting for Yuan Xi to finish speaking, Yuan Shang pursed his lips, and said with a little ridicule in his tone: "I don't want the second brother to be bloodless now!" It's a shame to let me be a younger brother! ”

As he spoke, Yuan Shang shouted to Wen Chou, who was standing next to Yuan Xima, and the general who followed him: "Yan Liang and Wen Chou, two generals! Immediately order the troops and horses, and go with a certain to the Liaodong army to beg for help! If His Royal Highness blames it, this son will bear it! ”
