"That's good."

Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

As long as Yuan Tan rushed ahead of Yang Ling and returned to Yecheng, the situation would not collapse as much as imagined.

Thinking of this, he nodded and commanded,

"Tell the order to go down and cross the river!"

"Whoa!"

All the people took the command in unison.

With Yuan Shao's order, the Hebei army boarded the ships again and began to withdraw to the north bank of the Yellow River.

……

The other side.

After days of rushing wildly, Yuan Tan finally saw Yecheng not far ahead.

After confirming that Yecheng was safe and sound, and there were no traces of war, his tired face couldn't help but show a smile.

"Someone, go to the city immediately and inform Meng Dai!"

After a while, he was appointed by Yuan Shao as the supervisor of the army, and Meng Dai, who was guarding Yecheng, received the news, and hurriedly led the people in the city to come out to greet Yuan Tan and his party.

"I've seen the eldest prince!"

Meng Dai respectfully bowed to Yuan Tan.

"Meng Jianjun doesn't need to be polite!"

Yuan Tan waved his hand and said with concern,

"What's the situation in the city?"

"Back to the eldest prince, after knowing the news that Zhang He had defected to the enemy and Mr. Gongze was defeated, I immediately ordered the city gate to be sealed and no one was allowed to enter or exit."

Meng Dai replied,

"Everything is fine in the city now."

A big stone in Yuan Tan's heart completely fell to the ground.

But then he frowned and asked,

"Then have you ever found any traces of Cao Jun?"

"No, I didn't."

Meng Dai shook his head and said a little dazedly,

"The scouts I sent have searched within a radius of twenty miles, but they have not found a shadow of Cao Jun."

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Tan and Wen Chou were both stunned.

The distance from Hanoi to Yecheng is almost the same as the distance from Baiba to Yecheng.

No matter how much Yang Ling couldn't ink, he should have almost reached the boundary of Yecheng at this moment.

But why haven't they been found?

"Did they know that Yecheng was strong and could not be conquered, so they retreated?"

Wen Chou scratched his bare head and guessed.

"How is this possible......"

Before Yuan Tan finished speaking, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a bold idea emerged.

Yang Linghe ...... He's going to attack his father! ”

"Won't it?"

Wen Chou was taken aback, shook his head and retorted,

"He only has a total of 5,000 men and horses, but there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses on the lord's side!"

"Yang Ling has always liked to be in danger and take him by surprise!"

Yuan Tan spoke quickly and authentically,

"Although my father had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, he could only transport them across the river a little bit."

"Once Yang Ling seizes the opportunity, he will take advantage of his father's half-crossing to attack him......"

Although he didn't finish speaking, how could Wen Chou and Meng Dai, who were the leading generals, not know what would happen next?

The faces of the two of them instantly became quite ugly!

"Meng Jianjun, immediately send someone to expedite eight hundred miles to inform my father of this!"

Yuan Tan shouted.

"Whoa!"

Meng Dai knew that this matter was important, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately beckoned to call a few messengers and asked them to go and inform Yuan Shao at any cost.

"General Wen Chou, you and I will return immediately!"

Yuan Tan said in a deep voice.

"Eldest prince, you have come in a hurry, you haven't rested yet, even if you rush back, I'm afraid you will be a tired teacher."

Meng Dai said with concern.

"So what, my father is in danger, how can I sit idly by?"

Yuan Tan sighed and followed,

"The two of us will go to Liyang to rest first, if Yang Ling's sneak attack is successful, we can just pick up my father."

"It's good!"

Meng Dai nodded.

So Yuan Tan and Wen Chou stopped staying and ordered the army to turn around and march towards Liyang.

……

"Lord, Cao Cao has not moved so far, so he must not come. Let's cross the river, shall we? ”

Guo Tu said with a smile.

After several rounds of warships, twenty or thirty thousand troops had reached the north shore.

Yuan Shao groaned slightly, then nodded and said,

"Okay, let's all cross the river."

Everyone surrounded Yuan Shao to board the warship, and after a while, they arrived at the north bank of the Yellow River.

Looking at the warship behind him, which was busy and transporting soldiers, Yuan Shao's eyes were very complicated.

Yang Ling!

One day, I will personally capture you to avenge today's revenge!

At this moment, the Hebei Army, which was originally moving in the direction of Liyang, suddenly appeared in a commotion.

"What's wrong?"

Yuan Shao, who was already in a bad mood, said angrily.

Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what was going on?

After a while, Lu Xiang, who looked flustered, crawled to Yuan Shao and shouted,

"Lord, it's not good, Cao ...... Cao's army has attacked! ”

"What?"

Including Yuan Shao, everyone was shocked.

"Isn't Cao Cao on the south bank, how did he attack it?"

Yuan Shao hadn't reacted at this moment, thinking that the attacking Cao army was a soldier led by Cao Cao.

"Lord, it's not Cao Cao, it's Yang Ling!"

Lu Xiang said in a panic.

Yuan Shao and the others were completely stunned.

Yang Ling didn't even attack Yecheng, but sneaked to the Yellow River and launched an attack on them?

Yuan Shao came back to his senses and laughed angrily.

"Good! Good! Good! is worthy of Yang Ling, he is really bold! In that case, today is the date of his death! ”

"Father, Yang Ling is menacing, why don't we stay out of the edge for the time being and take a boat back to the south bank to garrison?"

Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi, proposed.

"It's just a Yang Ling, how can I be afraid of him?"

Yuan Shao was born in the fourth world and the third duke, and after so many years of development, he has become the overlord of the land of the four states, which can be described as infinite scenery.

But this time, he led an army of nearly 200,000 to the south, but he was deflated one after another at the hands of Yang Ling.

How can he, who has always been proud, bear it?

"I'm stationed here today, I'll see if Yang Ling has the ability to kill me!"

When Yuan Shao's words landed, he led everyone to a small mountain on the shore and planted his handsome flag on it.

The soldiers from all over the world gathered one after another and surrounded Yuan Shao and others.

At this moment, Cao Jun in front also appeared in front of Yuan Shao!

Although he was far away, Yang Ling noticed at a glance the handsome flag representing Yuan Shao.

"I didn't expect Yuan Shao to run away, but I underestimated him."

Yang Ling bowed slightly, his eyes were full of respect.

It is worthy of Yuan Shao, who can defeat Han Fu and Gongsun Zan and compete for the world with Cao Cao!

"So what, today is his death!"

Gan Ning sneered, removed the strip of cloth from his body, and tied the weapon firmly with his hands.

Gao Shun, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong on the side did not speak, but their eyes were also full of fierce fighting intent.

Today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

As long as Yuan Shao is captured or killed, there will be no more battles in the north!

"Brothers, in a word, it's over!"

The feather fan in Yang Ling's hand swung down violently.

"Kill!"

Without too many words, Cao Jun roared angrily, followed by Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, and Gao Shun, the four generals, and pounced on the mountain bag where Yuan Shao was.
