When the news of Lu Bu and Diao Chan's marriage came back to Jizhou, Zhang Fan sighed in amazement, it seems that he doesn't need to worry about it, Lu Bu will never stay in Chang'an for a long time!

In fact, as he expected, the so-called hero is sad about the beauty view, and a man like Lu Bu can't stand the pillow wind, so he listened to Diao Chan's Jian Yì and took the army out of Chang'an, and went to Weinan to confront the Xiliang army, from a big man who could influence the court to a watchdog, to resist the scourge of Xiliang for the court.

In fact, if there was a decent strategist in Lu Bu's army, he would not have come to this step, and he was grateful to Dade after being calculated, and became a knife in the hands of others.

Lu Bu doesn't have to worry too much about Zhang Fan in this regard, no matter how strong he is, he will be contained, no matter how high the force is, what is the use, war is not a one-on-one game after all, what is more important is strategy and tactics, it can be said that a Jia Xu can eat Lu Bu to death.

Zhang Fan settled down and concentrated on training and development in Jizhou, and the young emperor was arranged by him in the city lord's mansion, and did not declare his identity to the outside world, and used it as a hole card.

It is worth mentioning that Zhang Liao finally joined Zhang Fan's team, this is a military general who can take charge alone, Zhang Fan simply handed over the main army of 100,000 to him to lead, and let Zhou Cang be his deputy general, follow and learn, I believe that Zhou Cang can really grow up, and Zhang Fan has no worries.

Today's Jizhou development momentum is booming, although Zhang Fan's main army is still only 400,000 people, but the second-line garrison army has expanded to 1.5 million, enough to guard the border of Jizhou, so that Zhang Fan has a stable rear.

Gradually, Zhang Fan's mind began to liven, he looked at the overall situation, and found that the geographical location of Jizhou is excellent, there is the king of the underworld in Youzhou, there will be no big mistakes, and there is a large mountain range separated from the state, and there will be no army crossing, the direction of Sili has experienced a big chaos, there are no soldiers and horses at all, and there is no threat, only Yanzhou Cao Cao and Qingzhou Yuan Shao are worthy of his attention!

The relationship between Zhang Fan and Cao Cao on the surface is excellent, no one will turn their faces until the real critical time, the two often communicate with each other, very polite, so there is only one point that Zhang Fan needs to face now, that is, Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, who is entrenched in Qingzhou, this is a hungry wolf!

Yuan Shao coveted the land of Jizhou for a while, but he lost a lot of soldiers and horses when he attacked Dong, and he couldn't find a suitable breakthrough point for a while, so he put it on hold, but now he is a little ready to move, because his army has ushered in an invincible general, Tai Shici!

Tai Shici is a native of Donglai County, Qingzhou, enlisted in Yuan Shao's large-scale conscription, and was immediately discovered by the god of war and blood, and promoted to a general in the army, and made a name for himself in several small-scale harassments launched by Yuan Shao, and was also favored by Yuan Shao, in Yuan Shao's words: I finally have an invincible general, and I am not afraid of Zhao Yun!

In fact, Tai Shi Ci and Zhao Yun are definitely not opponents if they really want to fight, but it will take a lot of effort for Zhao Yun to defeat him, Yuan Shao has Tai Shi Ci who can compete with Zhao Yun, and his hidden ambitions are gradually exposed.

He has been in Qingzhou for a long time, and his own prestige is extremely high, and the people under his rule are attached to him, and there are constantly capable people entering his army, and his strength has been greatly improved, and his soldiers are strong.

Yuan Shao began to try to recover the whole of Qingzhou, and Bao Xin near Tai'an naturally became his primary target, he sent 200,000 troops to attack, and Bao Xin fought in Boyang, that battle Bao Xin was defeated, Yan Liang was injured by Tai Shi Ci in front of the battle, if it was not for Wen Chou's timely rescue, it must be dangerous!

The Yuan army won a victory, and their morale was greatly shaken, and they tried to attack again, but they were blocked by Xu Shu's large array and could not advance an inch.

The two armies were at a standoff, and after Zhang Fan got the news, he urgently convened everyone to discuss: "Yuan Shao took the initiative to attack and invade our state and county, what do you think?" ”

"Fight!" Pan Feng did not hesitate.

Zhang Fan's expression didn't change for a moment, he didn't intend to ignore him at all, he knew that Pan Feng was a battle maniac, and he was excited as soon as he arrived on the battlefield, and he didn't plan that he would say anything constructive.

"Although what Wushuang said is reckless, I also think that war is necessary at this time!" Tian Feng said: "Yuan Shao is ambitious, he wants to encroach on my Jizhou at any time, and he relies on the momentum of his family, and his power has skyrocketed. ”

His words made everyone nod, after Yuan Shaonai was the fourth and third dukes, the prestige of the family was immeasurable, and now he occupied most of the land in Qingzhou, and was supported by the god of war and blood, and now his strength is already very strong, if he delays any longer, his power will be stronger, and when Zhang Fan wants to defeat him, he will need to pay a greater price, it is better to take advantage of Yuan Shao's slight weakness now to give a thunderous blow and nip this scourge in the bud!

After another discussion, everyone unanimously agreed to send troops, Zhang Fan nodded lightly, and ordered: "In this case, then pour the main army to aid Bao Xin, and strive to destroy Yuan Shao's arrogance in a battle!" ”

The matter was settled in this way, Zhao Yun Pan Feng and other generals went to assemble the army, Zhang Fan is now strong and strong, and he is not afraid of a battle!

Jizhou is in full swing of preparations, but Yuan Shao over there is a spring breeze, he got the general Tai Shici, won several battles in a row, and injured Zhang Fan's general Yan Liang, Yuan Jun is like a rainbow, full of fighting spirit, and good things come in pairs, and now his army has ushered in a few outstanding people to help its prestige!

These are not others, but after a few famous ministers who escaped in the Luoyang massacre, including Yang Xiu, the son of Taiwei Yang Biao, Huangfu Jianshou, the son of Huangfu Song, and his nephew Huangfu Li, all of whom are second-to-none Luoyang celebrities, they escaped from Dong Zhuo's men and came to Qingzhou to seek refuge with Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao's family is illustrious, and he once served in Luoyang, and he has a good relationship with several people, so it's no wonder they will come to vote.

Yang Xiuzhi's intelligence naturally doesn't need to be said, it's a pity that the edge is too exposed, otherwise Cao Cao would not be willing to kill him, although this kind of person has talent, but he doesn't know how to protect himself, and there is always a kind of superior show off, which is a fatal weakness in many cases.

Anyway, now that Yuan Shao has Yang Xiu as a think tank, and Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li are famous generals, he also has a very good set of leading troops to fight, which is like a tiger with wings!

This time, Yuan Shao's strength rose again, and he was even more unscrupulous, and he continued to draw 400,000 soldiers and horses from the rear to the frontline battlefield!

Although Yang Xiu took refuge in Yuan Shao, he didn't really want to be an enemy of Zhang Fan, and persuaded him: "Fengyun Chao is also a famous general of the Han Dynasty, who pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion and designed to kill Dong Zhuo, why does the original brother have to make things difficult for him?" If the two of you join forces, Kuang Fu Han will be no problem! ”

Yang Xiu's father, Yang Biao, is the captain of the Han Dynasty, one of the three dukes, and his status is respected, so although he took refuge in Yuan Shao, he still commensurate with Yuan Shao, and did not call his lord, and Yuan Shao did not care, and said: "Dezu's words are wrong!" Everything he did was the appearance, but in fact, he had already had a heart of disobedience, and he made constant small and medium-sized moves in secret, first killing Jizhou Mu Hanfu and seizing his territory, and then sending troops to kill Gongsun Zhan, who had a meritorious service against the Huns, which was fundamentally disintegrating the power of the Han Dynasty! ”

His eyes shrank slightly: "In the coalition army, he hated military aircraft many times, which led to the occurrence of the Luoyang tragedy, speaking of which Ling Zun's death is inextricably linked to him!" ”

Yuan Shao's words were undoubtedly very vicious, Yang Xiu originally wanted to persuade again, but he also fell silent when he heard the words, no one knew better than him the tragic situation in Luoyang at that time, his father was the third prince of the Han family, but he was beheaded in the bazaar, and he had no dignity at all, Yang Xiu was determined to avenge him, and now he heard that the culprit of this qiē was actually Zhang Fan, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of anger.

Yuan Shao smiled secretly in his heart, and hit the railway while it was hot: "This person is just a hypocrisy, if he is allowed to develop, he will definitely be another Dong Zhuo, and he should be eliminated as soon as possible!" ”

When Dong Zhuo was mentioned, the faces of Yang Xiu and the others became ugly, that was the pain in their hearts, how could they be revealed?

"Then the battle! Eliminate harm for the world! Yang Xiu shouted.

Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction, appointed Yang Xiu as a strategist, and Huangfu's brothers as generals, and the troops marched into Boyang in three ways to fight with Bao Xin!

When the two armies met, they fought for a long time, Xu Shu set up a plan for Yuan Shao, but Yang Xiu saw through it, and suffered the first real defeat, losing more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the scene was miserable.

"Yuan Shao has a big plan!" Xu Shu's brows gradually furrowed, their soldiers and horses in Qingzhou have developed and grown for a period of time, but the number is still less than 100,000, and they relied on stratagem and Yuan Shao before, but now there is obviously a powerful strategist in Yuan Shao's army who is giving advice, Xu Shu did not check for a while, and faced the enemy in the original way, and finally suffered the bitter fruit.

The loss of 10,000 soldiers and horses, coupled with the soldiers who died in the previous repeated frictions, Zhang Fan's Qingzhou army only had 70,000 or 80,000 people left, where was Yuan Shao's opponent of nearly 600,000 tiger and wolf troops?

"Strategist, is there a plan to retreat from the enemy?" Bao Xin asked.

Xu Shu shook his head and remained silent.

There is no way, the difference in strength is too great, Yuan Shao's army has ushered in a powerful strategist, the momentum is unparalleled for a while, if he is bold enough to use a plan and be recognized, his own losses will expand, and the situation is not optimistic.

"The dog thief Tai Shi Ci hurt my brother, how can he let him run rampant? I want to fight, take his head! Wen Chou yelled, Yan Liang's injury made him crazy.

"Don't be reckless!"

Xu Shu and Bao Xin's kind words comforted Wen Chou's mood gradually calmed down, but he was still unwilling: "Do you want to give up like this?" ”

"How can you let Yuan Shao get his wish so lightly?" Xu Shu's eyes shrank slightly, he was ordered by Zhang Fan to assist Bao Xin to guard the Tai'an generation, the responsibility is heavy, how could he give up like this? What kind of face does this make him go to see Zhang Fan?

"It's dangerous to use tactics, and it's not enough to blindly defend, how about this?" Wen Chou snorted angrily.

Xu Shu hesitated for a long time, and suddenly gritted his teeth: "Set up a battle to resist the enemy!" ”
