Lü Bu withdrew, Sun Ce followed closely, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei followed.

Chasing and catching up, this is like rushing into Xuzhou, and it can be clearly predicted that a big war is imminent.

And at this point in time, not only Cao Cao and others are nervous, but the bottle and pot are even more tense to the extreme!

As time passed, it was a great test for Yuan Shao.

Will he attack the bottle pot guan? If you don't attack, it means that you have given up your previous plan, given up Yu and Xu Erzhou, and can only retreat to Yangzhou.

For a person who aspires to great things, the unconscious is unlikely.

It is true that Yuan Shao spent a sleepless and tormented night.

His advisers and generals were divided into two factions, one insisted on attacking, and the other thought that the time was not yet ripe.

Yuan Shao walked out of the big tent with a sullen face.

As he walked, he suddenly thought of the trial again, and couldn't help but walk towards the tent of the trial.

Before he could get closer, he found that the judge was already waiting for him in front of the tent.

"Sir knows I'm coming?" Yuan Shao came to the front and looked at the judge.

In the past, he didn't care about this trial, he only regarded it as Xixi, teaching his two sons.

But the last conversation made Yuan Shao feel that he needed to get to know this person again.

The judge opened the tent door and said, "General, please." ”

Yuan Shao didn't hesitate, he was bored, and he also wanted to find someone to talk to, so he went in directly.

At first glance, the wine and food were already set up on the small table, and it was obvious that he had been waiting for him for a long time.

Yuan Shao took off his cloak and sat down directly.

After the trial and salute, he sat opposite Yuan Shao.

The two drank a glass first, Yuan Shao picked up the chopsticks, and said straight to the point: "Mr. have heard of it?" ”

The judge didn't move his chopsticks, bowed slightly, and said, "Does the general remember what happened when the Zhou room was in decline?" ”

The Han Dynasty is the second dynasty after the Zhou Dynasty, the last year of the dynasty, there are two in total, one is the end of the Qin Dynasty, and the other is the weekend.

And the weekend is the most enthusiastic discussion of the Han Dynasty, there are too many things in it, and the Han Dynasty inherited most of them.

Yuan Shao put down his wine glass and said suspiciously, "What does Mr. mean?" ”

Weekends, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period for hundreds of years, there are too many things.

The judge's expression slowly became serious, and he said: "Back then, the Zhou royal family declined, and the princes rose together, but not everyone was ambitious. For example, Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin, they raised troops to deter and defend the royal family, and the world admired them. ”

Yuan Shao's expression changed immediately, he sat up straight suddenly, and almost blurted out: "Mr. is talking about 'respecting the king'?" ”

The so-called 'respecting the king' means that on the surface it respects the Zhou royal family, but in fact expands its strength and dominates it.

Naturally, the judge didn't mean that, and nodded: "Not bad." Now the Han family is declining, and the dissident people are like ants, looking at the world, only the general has both virtue and prestige, and he should be the only minister who calms the troubled times and returns to the Han family! ”

Yuan Shao's heart beat like a drum, and his eyes were as hot as mang.

He can't attack the bottle and pot pass, what he is worried about is that he will now turn his face with the imperial court, be abandoned by the world's corporans, and be isolated.

But with the excuse of 'respecting the king', he can let it go!

Yuan Shao raised his hand, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you, Mr. for your guidance." ”

The judge was taken aback by this big gift, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Don't dare, I hope that the general will open the banner and win and calm the world." ”

Yuan Shao helped him up and said in a deep voice: "I will live up to Mr.'s trust!" ”

After saying that, he couldn't wait to leave.

As soon as he left, Xin Ping walked in, and said with some hatred: "It is said that Yuan Shao will rebel, why don't you believe it?" ”

The judge took a sip of wine and said, "The fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, since ancient times, there is no other. Even if the Yuan family is rebellious, but the world is favored by the emperor, everyone can't be a rebel, right? Yuan Shao sued the Yuan family back then, in order to obtain His Majesty's mercy, not to forgive the guilty, but to reuse it, how could he not know the reward? ”

"What if not?" Xin Ping stepped forward quickly.

The judge took a bite, put down the chopsticks, and snorted coldly: "Isn't that a pig or a dog!" ”

Xin Ping saw that the judge was stubborn, and said angrily: "I said, my judge brother, why are you so stubborn? You gave him advice today, and Yuan Shao really reversed his day, do you know that it is a heinous crime?! ”

The judge disagreed, and said, "Then I will apologize with death!" ”

Xin Ping stomped his feet angrily, but there was no way to judge the matching.

On the other hand, Yuan Shao had the excuse of 'respecting the king', and immediately bypassed Fu Zhi and other strategists, and directly ordered Zhang He, Gao Gan, and sent troops to the bottle and pot.

The bottle and pot were closed, Xun You, Tian Feng, Zhao Yun and others looked at the army that was standing and ready to go, and their expressions were somewhat condensed.

Liu Yuxing rushed up from behind and shouted, "Are you going to fight?" Are you going to fight? ”

After many days of getting along, Xun You felt more and more that this second prince had the potential of Mingjun, and smiled and said to him: "Isn't Your Highness afraid?" ”

Liu Yu lay on the city wall, jumped and looked down, and said: "My father and the emperor have also been in the royal conquest, in Shangdang County, my father is not afraid, and I am not afraid." ”

Xun You smiled more, and just about to speak, Tian Feng said: "Xun servant shoots, Yuan Shao is here." ”

Xun Yu raised his head violently, only to see Yuan Shao running over single-handedly, coming to a short distance from the pass, and said loudly towards the city tower: "Second Highness, Weichen is ordered to beg for thieves, why are you blocking my way?" ”

Liu Yu wanted to answer, but it wasn't high enough.

Zhao Yun stepped forward, dragged him with one hand, and held him in his arms.

Liu Yu shouted at Yuan Shao in a childish voice: "You still have a heavy responsibility, you are not allowed to move here, wait for the order of His Highness!" ”

Yuan Shao rode a horse, walked back and forth, and said loudly: "Your Royal Highness is still young, please shoot back to Xun Servant." ”

Xun You's expression was majestic, and he shouted: "Yuan Shao, you are on standby, and if you move without permission, you will resist the decree and seek rebellion!" ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly in his heart, raised his chest, and shouted: "Xun Servant Shot, this general is also an envoy who is ordered by order, and he is no different from you!" Cao Cao's forty or fifty thousand horses are not Dong Zhuo's opponents at all, if they are defeated, can you afford this responsibility? Open the gate now and let me pass! This will be ordered to beg for thieves, and it will be difficult for the country to peace! If you and the other will obstruct it, it is a disobedient act, and you can send troops to fight! ”

"Here we are." Tian Feng said softly. He had long expected that Yuan Shao would rebel, and he still came after all.

Xun You's face did not change, and he said loudly: "Yuan Shao, your Yuan family is favored by the emperor, the fourth and third princes, and now, are you going to rebel?" ”

Yuan Shao, who was riding a horse, looked cold, this was his reverse scale, and it was the reason why he was isolated by the Shi clan!

His eyes were gloomy, riding a horse, walking back and forth, and with a sweep of his afterglow, Frustration, Director Zhang, Gao Gan, Zhang He and others appeared in front of the formation in turn.

Those who are for it, those who are against, are coming.

The corners of Yuan Shao's face twitched fiercely, and his voice was like thunder: "The Han family is in decline, traitors are in power, the world is tired, and the people are not living!" I, Yuan Shao, am determined to be the Duke of Qi Huan and the Duke of Wen of Jin, respect the king, eliminate all traitors and evils, and return to the Han family! ”

Zhang He, Gao Gan and others, who were originally opposed to sending troops, couldn't help but be slightly shocked when they heard this.

As for the frustrated teaching, Director Zhang and others had burning eyes and surging hearts.

Respect the king!

That's right! That's right! It's the king's reverence!

Xu You was equally surprised, but he didn't expect Yuan Shao to find such an excuse.

This excuse is enough to win over many scholars and improve Yuan Shao's isolation situation!

'Who gave him the idea?' Xu You turned to Fu Zhu and the others, and secretly sneered in his heart, these fools don't have this kind of brain at all!

And Xun You, Tian Feng and others who closed the bottle and pot looked very unsightly.

Yuan Shao found a 'suitable' reason for his behavior, and the next thing was to attack.

"Zilong, get ready." Xun You and Zhao Yundao.

Zhao Yun said: "Xun Servant can rest assured, it will not be a problem to keep it for three or five days." ”

Liu Yu raised his head at this time, looked at Zhao Yun, and said with a puzzled face: "Zilong, what does it mean to respect the king?" ”

Zhao Zilong was stunned, although he had read a little book, but he really didn't know about this kind of thing, so he could only look up at Xun You.

Xun Yu Yuguang saw that Yuan Shao's army was approaching, and still explained to Liu Yu with a calm smile: "Your Highness, that's the case. At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, the royal family declined, and the princes from all walks of life rose, they did not have a royal family, and in the name of respecting the royal family, they fought for hegemony, and over time, they became self-reliant on behalf of Zhou. He is loyal on the surface, but he is a traitor. ”

Liu Yu suddenly understood, and said: "Just like now, my father often said that loyal ministers and traitors have been difficult to distinguish since ancient times, and the establishment of people is the same as the establishment of a country, and you can't rely on others, but you must also be self-reliant." ”

Xun You nodded and said with a smile: "Your Highness is smart. ”

Woohoo

At this time, countless arrows fell from the sky and rushed towards the face.

Many shield armor soldiers quickly rushed over, enveloping Liu Yu, Xun You, Tian Feng and others.

"Second Highness, please go downstairs." Zhao Yun said urgently while commanding the defense of the city.

Liu Yu was not afraid, and said loudly: "I want to go to the Arrow Pavilion." ”

Xun You looked at Liu Yu, who had a slightly stubborn face, hesitated, and said, "Weichen will accompany His Highness." ”

So, Xun You, Tian Feng and others escorted Liu Yu to the Arrow Pavilion.

After Liu Yu sat down, he looked at Zhao Yun hurriedly and roaring in command, pulled out the chessboard from under the table, and said to Xun You: "Xun servant shoot, play a game with me." ”

Xun You was quite nervous in his heart, his face was not revealed, and he smiled and said, "Your Highness, please." ”

Liu Yu naturally didn't know much, and Xun Yu patiently played chess.

Tian Feng sat on the side, like a gentleman, silent, only occasionally turning his gaze from the chessboard to the city.

At the head of the city, archers kept shooting arrows, and shield soldiers shuttled back and forth.

Tian Feng looked very inexplicable, is this guarding the customs?

And under the gate, Zhang He is constantly probing, looking for flaws.

After the army, Yuan Shao personally supervised the army, his face was expressionless, his sword was in his hand, and he was constantly estimating the time in his heart.

He must catch up as soon as possible, and must not let Cao Cao and all the officials and soldiers destroy Dong Zhuo, and must be the fisherman - only in this way can he take Yu and Xu Erzhou into his pocket.

Zhang He commanded an army of 20,000 and attacked fiercely.

There are only 2,000 forbidden troops on the bottle and pot close, and no matter how elite they are, they can't withstand the fierce attack of 20,000 troops.

Zhao Yun didn't see the slightest flustery, and commanded in an orderly manner.

The defense equipment is very abundant, arrows, stones, boiling oil, almost like no money is thrown out like crazy.

The sound of shouting and killing, screaming, overlapping up and down the bottle and pot, diffused I don't know how far.

An hour later, Zhang He came to Yuan Shao and said, "General, this bottle of pot pass, I'm afraid it won't be able to be attacked today." ”

Yuan Shao had already noticed it, but he couldn't attack unscrupulously, lose the elite here, and how could he compete with Cao Cao for Yuzhou.

At this time, Fu Zhu stepped forward and said, "General, you must capture it today, the night is long and you have many dreams!" ”

Yuan Shao stared at the bottle and pot with cold eyes, hesitated again and again, and said: "Give you another 10,000 people, at any cost, attack!" Send a letter to Ju Yi again, when the time comes, order him to take Wu County and send troops to Guangling, Xuzhou! ”

"Yes!" Zhang He responded, and Fu Zhu also agreed.

Strike on both sides, and the odds are greater.

Zhang He's army of 30,000 people, all means were used, the stone throwers in the sky, the underground tunnels, plus archers, rams, the offensive suddenly became fierce.

Zhao Yun on the head of the city instantly felt it, and the dangerous bottle and pot closing, suddenly giving people a crumbling feeling.

Reinforcements had already arrived, and the forbidden army in the city fought desperately, roaring again and again.

Even Liu Yu, who was playing chess, Xun Yu was not calm, and looked up at the city.

Tian Feng's heart was heavy, this bottle of pot was not only shot by His Royal Highness the Second Highness and the right servant, but also Cao Cao's rear, once Yuan Shao crossed over, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Zhao Yun didn't panic, he was still constantly adjusting and arranging, and the spear in his hand easily stabbed Yuan Jun who rushed up.

The attack of Yuan's army became more fierce, and the number of rushing up continued to increase, the stones and arrows above the head rained down, and the casualties on the head of the city increased visibly.

Seeing this, Xun You's heart was dark.

He expected it, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Liu Yu was not in a hurry, and said, "Aren't there still two thousand people?" ”

Xun You looked back, this was left to them by Cao Cao.

"I can't move for now." Xun You said softly.

Liu Yu didn't know why, but Tian Feng said: "Xun servant, do you want to talk to Yuan Shao again and delay time." ”

Xun You shook his head, looked at Zhao Yun, and said, "It won't be delayed for long." ”

He could only hope for Zhao Yun now.

This person became famous for several years, and then he has been walking around the camp and palace of the forbidden army, and rarely leads troops again.

"General Zhonglang, some can't hold on." At this time, a military marquis came to Zhao Yun's side and touched the blood on his face.

Zhao Yun watched carefully for a while, then was silent for a moment, and said, "Order someone to carry it up." ”

The military marquis was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted behind him, "Lift the heavenly thunder up." ”

Xun You, Tian Feng and others were stunned when they heard this, Tianlei?

After a while, large boxes were placed one by one, and the shovels were pried open one by one, revealing the small wooden sticks that were neatly arranged inside like handles.

Seeing this, the soldiers, as if reflexive, quarreled, bit off the string at the end, and then threw it down.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of heavenly thunderbolts were thrown down the tower, and after a brief silence, a deafening explosion sounded one after another, exploding under the city.

The forbidden army at the head of the city did not stop, and kept throwing down.

The sound of the explosion exploded rhythmically, muffling out the shouts of killing and screaming.

At the same time, Yuan Jun, who was constantly climbing the city tower, seemed to disappear in an instant.

Tian Feng couldn't help but run over, standing by the wall and looking down.

He smelled the pungent smell of sulfur, saw billowing green smoke, and countless severed limbs.

As if frightened, Yuan's army retreated like a tide.
