"General, although we have a grudge, but after the land is ceded and compensated, the grudge is gone."

"My father also gave a letter to the general, our Yuan family is willing to return to the imperial court, we can surrender, this promise has been valid, please ask the general to collect the troops and retreat, and wait for my father to come back from the northern expedition, and then sit down and talk, okay?"

Yuan Tan was reluctant to fight directly with Yang Zhao.

The shock in Gaomi County at the beginning, he remembered it vividly, every time he thought about it, his heart trembled once, and Yang Zhao, in his opinion, was actually no different from sending him to death.

As long as Yang Zhao can be persuaded to withdraw from the army, there is no need to fight, and any promise can be given.

"I was ordered by His Majesty to come to Jizhou to crusade against Yuan Shao, who is not a minister, you have no problem asking me to collect troops, now open Yecheng and surrender, naturally collect troops, and will not attack again."

Yang Zhao raised his head slightly, his eyes fell on Yuan Tan, and said with a smile: "Are you willing to surrender the city instead of Yuan Benchu?" ”

Yuan Tan said in a loud voice: "Impossible, we can talk about this matter again." ”

"I don't think there's any need to talk about it!"

Yang Zhaoman didn't care and said, "If you don't open Yecheng, I can attack it." ”

In a word, blocking everything Yuan Tan wanted to say next, there was no room for negotiation.

No matter what Yuan Tan wanted to say next, Yang Zhao didn't pay attention to it anymore, and he didn't start attacking the city immediately, and camped outside the city normally.

The time was fast and came to the evening of the same day.

"Lord, there's news."

The shadow man walked into the camp and said: "We inquired and found that Yuan Shao only let Zhu Ling and Jiang Yiqu go north to resist Gongsun Zhan, and then he went south to return to Yecheng, worried that we would attack the city, so he sent a vanguard of 5,000 people to rush back, and it was still about ten miles away from Yecheng. ”

"Yuan Shao is really afraid of the lord."

Zhuge Liang said: "He thinks that the lord is much stronger than Gongsun Zhan, so he will gather his strength to block the lord first." ”

Yang Zhao said: "Prepare 5,000 people to fight, I will meet Yuan Shao's vanguard for a while." ”

"Yes!"

Humane.

Zhou Cang, who was beside him, quickly ordered five thousand soldiers to come out, followed behind Yang Zhao, and went to the north of Yecheng, and soon saw that the five thousand pioneers appeared in the wilderness in the north.

The other party also discovered Yang Zhao and the others, and they all stopped.

Yang Zhao looked from a distance, and saw that Yuan Shao's side, the leader of the army was also an old acquaintance, it was the original commander Jiao Touch, who left Youzhou like Zhang Nan and joined Yuan Shao's command.

"General Jiao, long time no see!"

Yang Zhao shouted.

"General!"

In Jiao Fu's heart, he was also embarrassed and sighed, the county magistrate of a small county back then was able to develop to this extent, and he could serve the Son of Heaven as an order, and he was just an ordinary general.

In comparison, the gap between the two sides is too big.

Jiao Touch said again: "Retreat!" ”

Yang Zhao did not retreat, but dug into the foot of the wall, and said: "For the sake of fighting side by side at the beginning, how about you help me?" ”

Jiao Fu hesitated in his heart, and finally denied: "Impossible! ”

"Then you retreat!"

Yang Zhao said lightly: "You are not my opponent, and I don't want to fight with you, if you don't retreat, I can only be sorry." ”

Jiao Touch also knew that he was not Yang Zhao's opponent, in response to Zhang Chun's rebellion, what was Yang Zhao's strength, he could see with his own eyes, and Yang Zhao had no chance of winning, hesitated to the end, and said helplessly: "Retreat!" ”

He retreated, returned to the large army, and then waited for Yuan Shao's arrangement.

As soon as the order was handed down, the five thousand pioneers walked clean in the blink of an eye.

"I didn't expect that Captain Jiao Du would be mixed up like this, even I am not as good."

Fang Rui sighed a little.

Back then, he and Tian Yu, Zhao Zhao and others rose together with Yang Zhao in Youzhou, and naturally remembered Jiao Touch.

He said: "Jiao Duwei is far inferior to us now, and it is also the lord who has developed too fast in recent years, so that we can also benefit." ”

Yang Zhao said: "My development is indispensable for your help, let's go back!" ”

Returning to the camp, Yang Zhao glanced at the tower of Yecheng, thought for a while and continued: "Yuan Shao went south to help, and he should be able to rush outside Yecheng tomorrow, if you want to attack the city, you have to fight Yuan Shao first." ”

Jia Xu said: "It's not difficult to repel Yuan Shao, when he comes back, he will almost be sent to death." ”

"That's right!"

Yang Zhao agreed: "Peping said before, Ju Yi's first Dengshi, the strength is no worse than the trapped camp, this time you will fight Ju Yi again, do you have the confidence to capture him alive?" ”

Gao Shun said confidently: "Of course there is!" ”

The advantage of the first decanter no longer exists, and those strong crossbows, they can also imitate them.

Trapping the camp also has the advantage of weapons, and it will definitely be easier to defeat the Pioneer this time than the last time.

"Good!"

Yang Zhao said again: "Ju Yi will be handed over to Peping, and the others will pay attention to defense and wait for Yuan Shao's movements." ”

——

Time was fast, and it was the next day.

Yuan Shao went south from the north of Yecheng, camped near the north gate, and confronted Yang Zhao.

He didn't enter the city, first, the city gate was blocked, and if he wanted to open the city gate to enter, it was easy for Yang Zhao to take the opportunity to sneak attack, and secondly, he was outside the city, in case of any sudden accident, it would be much easier to escape.

"General!"

Yuan Shao walked to Yang Zhao's barracks, he resisted these three words, but he couldn't help but shout like this, and continued: "How can you withdraw from the army?" ”

"Open Yecheng, let me enter the city, and stop interfering in your affairs immediately."

Yang Zhao's conditions were straightforward.

"Impossible!"

Yuan Shao vetoed.

Yecheng is his base camp, and it is impossible to give it up.

This simple negotiation will not be able to be negotiated even if it breaks down directly.

Yuan Shao reluctantly retreated to the camp and continued to confront Yang Zhao, as well as discuss how to repel Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao was not surprised by such a result.

If Yuan Shao can get out of Yecheng, it will be surprising.

Seeing that Yuan Shao had retreated, Yang Zhao led people to inspect the Zhangshui next to him, thinking about how to intercept Zhangshui, how to dig a canal, and flood Yecheng, even if Yuan Tan prepared more things in the city, if the flooding lasted for a long time, it could soak the walls of Yecheng.

At that time, Wang Ben destroyed Wei, soaked the city of Daliang, soaked for three months, and directly soaked the city wall.

Before you know it, it's night again.

Outside the camp, it is strictly guarded and defended.

There was a night attack by Chun Yuqiong, the soldiers who were on vigil at night, and the shadows who were watching outside the camp did not dare to relax, and when the time entered the middle of the night, the shadows suddenly found that there was something wrong with the darkness nearby.

A faint killing intent was approaching the camp.

Countless black shadows swayed in the night, and although the people who came did not light the torches, they quietly approached the lights of the camp, and the black shadows approached, indicating that there was another night attack tonight.

Shadow people, hurry back and report it.

When Yang Zhao got the news, he immediately summoned everyone, but he didn't make a noise, pretending not to know anything, and the camp continued to be quiet, waiting for the enemy to continue to go deeper, and once again he planned to let the enemy jump into this pit.
