After Cao Cao's envoy left, only the next day, Gu Rubing received the news that Cao Cao had led his troops to leave, and agreed to exchange Xiahoudun at the cost of 3,000 good horses and 5,000 fine armor.

However, Cao Cao couldn't get together so many horses and fine armor in a short period of time, so he could only make an appointment temporarily, and then come to exchange with himself when he got it together in the future.

After seeing that Cao Cao did lead his troops to leave, Gu Rubing directly led the army and began to march from Hejian to Zhongshan, preparing to cut off Yuan Shao's back road, and attack Yuan Shao with Gongsun Zhan in front and back.

And the news of Cao Cao's defeat and retreat to Yanzhou was like a wildfire, which immediately spread and instantly shook the entire Hebei!

At this time, Yuan Shao's military tent was inside.

Yuan Shao sat on the main seat, and the generals such as Lu Yi, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong, and Zhang He were on the left, while the strategists such as Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xu You, and Xun Chen were on the right side.

A group of civil and military generals were discussing how to deal with Gongsun Zhan, who turned from defense to offense.

Since borrowing troops to Cao Cao, now Gongsun Chan has seized the opportunity and began to continue to raid out of the city, and Yuan's army has been forced to turn from the original offensive to the defensive.

"Report!"

At this moment, a spy with a frightened face hurriedly ran into the military tent, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand to Yuan Shao: "Lord, the big thing is not good!" ”

"Huh?"

Yuan Shao frowned slightly, and asked, "Why are you so flustered?" ”

"Lord Lord, Cao Cao has been defeated by Liu Bei, his general Cao Hong has been beheaded, Xiahoudun has been captured, and his strength is only about 6,000 left!"

The spy immediately bowed his hand, took a deep breath, and announced: "Cao Cao has withdrawn his army from Hejian, and now, Liu Bei is leading a large army to march from Hejian to Hanchang, Zhongshan, and will arrive in Hanchang in a few days!" ”

The words of the spies can be described as stirring up a thousand waves with one word!

Suddenly, the strategists and generals in the entire military tent couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock, and their faces were full of horror!

"What?!"

Hearing this, he stood up directly, his face was full of disbelief, and he said: "Cao Cao is a hero in the world, and there are 20,000 troops, and his command Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan are even more fierce generals in the world, and Chen Gong is also quite resourceful, even if the army is defeated, it will not cause such heavy casualties!" ”

"Subordinates don't dare to deceive!"

The spy shook his head, his face was also full of shock, and he arched his hand and said, "But it is true! ”

"Cao Cao sent Xiahoudun and Lejin to cut off Liu Bei's grain road, and Liu Bei led the main force to intercept Xiahoudun and Lejin, and only Xu Rong was left alone in the camp!"

However, no one could have imagined that Xu Rong killed almost all of the Cao army killed by himself, and only 500 soldiers and horses of 10,000 troops successfully escaped...... I'm afraid Cao Cao has already been killed by Xu Rong! ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shao was even more stunned, and said in shock: "Alone? How can it be?! Xu Rong alone almost wiped out Cao Jun? ”

"Lord, what his subordinates say is true!"

The spy saw Yuan Shao's look of disbelief, and immediately spoke.

Suddenly, the entire military tent fell into an eerie silence.

After a long time, Xun Chen stood up with a solemn face, bowed his hand to Yuan Shao, and took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Lord, since Cao Cao has been defeated, I thought I should withdraw my troops immediately!"

Xun Chen paused and continued to speak: "Otherwise, once Liu Bei cuts off the back road of our army, our army will go deep alone, and be attacked by Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei from both sides, I am afraid that we will be defeated!" ”

Hearing Xun Chen's words, Tian Feng also nodded and said: "What you said is very true, the lord should immediately withdraw his troops and retreat to Lunu, and hold on!" Take the matter of Youzhou, you can make plans again. ”

Xu You, who was beside Tian Feng, also groaned: "Lord, yes, the only way to do this now is to retreat, Gongsun Zhan is an incompetent person, and after Liu Bei withdraws his troops and leaves, he can find another opportunity to break it!" ”

Guo Tu and Feng Ji did not object, and they all bowed their hands and said: "Lord, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei are attacking each other, their momentum is still strong, our army is by no means an opponent, we should retreat as soon as possible!" ”

"Then is the river that has just been recaptured, just handed over to people like this?"

In the military general industry on the left, Han Meng frowned and said: "Before, Gongsun Chan led a large army to press the border, and the states and counties of Jizhou fell to the wind, in such an adversity, didn't the lord also defeat Gongsun Zhan?" ”

"That's right, with the divine martial arts of the lord, even if Liu Bei and Gongsun Chan unite, they will definitely not be opponents!"

Chun Yuqiong nodded, and said with a look of agreement: "Lord, the last general is willing to mention the army of tigers and wolves and ambush in the rear of our army, once Liu Bei leads the army to come and wants to cut off the back road of our army, the last general will let it return defeated!" ”

"The last general is willing to go together!"

Han Meng also opened his mouth and took the initiative to ask.

"The two generals are brave, but they are too light on the enemy."

At this moment, Xu You stroked his hair lightly, shook his head, and said: "This victory is a victory, once the two generals are defeated, have you ever thought about what danger our army will fall into?" ”

"This ......"

Hearing Xu You's words, Chun Yuqiong and Han Meng were speechless for a moment.

Indeed, if they defeat Liu Bei, it will be forgotten, but once defeated, the lone Yuan army will face annihilation, and may even be wiped out!

"The big-eared thief misunderstood me, and I am incompatible with it!"

At this moment, Yuan Shao finally gritted his teeth with an unwilling face and said, "Pass my order, withdraw the troops immediately, and defend Lunu!" ”

"Yes!"

Hearing Yuan Shao speak, the generals in the tent finally had no objections, and immediately surrendered their orders.

…………

Soon, the news of Yuan Shao's withdrawal spread immediately, and after learning of Yuan Shao's retreat to Lunu, Gu Rubing immediately stopped continuing to march towards Zhongshan.

His trip was only to relieve the siege of Youzhou, but he didn't have the idea of smashing Yuan Shao with Gongsun Zhan, the best thing was that Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao had been in a stalemate, and he was in Qingzhou, sitting and watching the two tigers fight.

Gu Rubing pondered for a moment and said, "Someone!" ”

"In!"

The guard immediately stepped forward and said.

"Now that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have all withdrawn, and there is no danger to defend in Hejian, you should go to Zhuojun and tell Gongsun Taishou that Gongsun Taishou and I will work together to push back to Hejian!" Gu Rubing opened his mouth and said.

"Yes!"

The guards gave up their orders and left in a hurry.

After Gu Rubing led his troops to stop for two days, he learned that Gongsun Zan was raising troops and began to push back to Hejian.

And Gu Rubing also immediately led his troops, cooperated with Gongsun Zhan, and began to attack Hejian.

Finally.

Under the joint attack of Gu Rubing and Gongsun Zhan, Hejian County, which had not many remaining forces, could be said to be pushed all the way, and in just five days, Gu Rubing had already conquered all the Wuheng area and stopped in Renqiu City.

And Gongsun Zhan also laid down all the areas around Yi County, and began to rush to Renqiu with his troops, and came to meet Gu Rubing.

Two days later.

Gu Rubing was on the city wall of Renqiu City, and he didn't wait long before he saw a group of mighty soldiers and horses, coming towards Renqiu City, and the battle flag with "Gongsun" written on it fluttered in the wind.

There are a lot of soldiers and horses and cavalry, all of whom wear velvet armor, especially the iron cavalry with 3,000 men riding white horses, holding long lances and carrying big bows, which looks heroic and brave.

And at the forefront of the three thousand white horses is Gongsun Zhan, who is handsome and extraordinary, wearing silver armor.

"Open the gates!"

After seeing Gongsun Zhan, Gu Rubing immediately ordered, and at the same time, he and a group of guards left the city wall and drove to the city gate to greet him.

Soon, after seeing Gu Rubing who appeared at the gate of the city, Gongsun Zhan's eyes lit up, and he immediately sped up the speed of the horses, and soon arrived at the city with several personal guards and stopped in front of Gu Rubing.

"Virtuous brother!"

Gongsun Zhan turned over and dismounted, and said to Gu Rubing with great sincerity: "Thank you Brother Xian for leading the troops to rescue, such a great kindness, I will never forget!" If it weren't for the virtuous brother, I'm afraid I would have been ruined! ”

Gongsun Zhan's words can be said to be sincere, and there is no politeness!

At that time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined forces to attack, Youzhou was in danger, and Gongsun Zhan was almost desperate!

As a result, it was learned that Gu Rubing defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, came to Youzhou to support, and finally defeated Cao Cao, forcing Yuan Shao to withdraw his troops and take over the siege of Youzhou.

For Gongsun Zhan, Gu Rubing is tantamount to a life-saving benefactor!

"Brother Bogui, why should you be polite."

After seeing Gongsun Zhan, Gu Rubing's eyes flashed, and he immediately arched his hand and said: "Qingzhou was in trouble before, I borrowed troops from Brother Bogui, didn't Brother Bogui say a word, and directly borrowed 3,000 iron horsemen to Brother Foolish?" ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Chan felt a little embarrassed in his heart.

After all, he didn't want to borrow it, at that time, the advantage of purely fighting Yuan Shao was too great, and he didn't want to increase the incident, so he turned his face with Liu Bei, and it happened that Changshan County had just surrendered a group of cavalry, and there was no loss to him when he lent it out, so he borrowed it along the river.

But Gongsun Chan never expected that an unintentional act of kindness would actually save his life.

But after this incident, Gongsun Chan also felt that he had fully realized what kind of person Liu Bei was.

This Liu Bei can handle it, and he is really good if there is something!

Now Gongsun Chan has truly regarded Liu Bei as his own person and determined the heart of the alliance!

"Brother Xian's words are wrong, Brother Xian and I are classmates, and we have a good relationship, Brother Xian is in trouble, how can I sit idly by?"

Gongsun Zhan naturally couldn't say that he didn't plan to borrow troops before, so he shook his head and said.

"It is precisely this reason, Brother Bogui saw that his foolish brother was in trouble, and borrowed troops to help."

Gu Rubing said with a smile: "Now that Youzhou is in trouble, how can Bei turn a blind eye?" ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Zhan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gu Rubing, and was even more grateful in his heart.

As soon as Gongsun Zhan was about to speak, Gu Rubing spoke again: "Brother Bogui, don't stand and talk, lead the army into the city first." ”

"It's fine."

Gongsun Chan nodded and said, "Tonight's banquet, my brother and I will drink and talk happily, and if we don't get drunk, we won't return!" ”

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Gu Rubing was not polite, nodded with a smile, and then made way for Gongsun Zhan.

"Into town!"

Gongsun Chan turned his head, looked at the army behind him, shouted, and led the army into Renqiu City.

…………

Night.

In Renqiu's mansion, a banquet has been set up, and there is a staggered scene.

Gongsun Chan sat on the main seat, and Gu Rubing sat next to Gongsun Chan's right seat.

"Come!"

Gongsun Chan raised his wine glass and said to Gu Rubing, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals: "Thank you for leading the troops to help, prepare a little thin wine, please drink!" Drink first for respect! ”

After speaking, Gongsun Chan raised his wine glass and drank it all!

Seeing this, Gu Rubing, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei also immediately raised their wine glasses and drank them all.

Gongsun Zhan looked at Gu Rubing, sighed, and said: "I only hate that I didn't listen to the words of the virtuous brother at the beginning, and I rashly sent troops to attack Yuan Shao without waiting for the virtuous brother, and now Yuan Shao has established a firm foothold in Jizhou, the general trend has been achieved, and I regret it too late!" ”

As he spoke, Gongsun Zhan personally poured another glass of wine, raised his glass, and said to Gu Rubing again: "I will punish myself with a glass, and I hope that the virtuous brother will not be upset." ”

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Chan drank the wine in the cup again.

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing immediately spoke, gave Gongsun Zhan a step, and said: "Brother Bogui also heard that Brother Ling was killed by Yuan Shao, and he is eager for revenge, so he can understand it, not to mention that Yuan Shao is plotting against Youzhou, I'm afraid the plan is not small." ”

Hearing Gu Rubing's words, Gongsun Zhan's eyes lit up when he looked at Gu Rubing, and he immediately nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Not bad!" Yuan Shao treacherously, seized Jizhou, and killed my brother, this revenge is not avenged, what face do I have in the world? ! ”

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing's eyes were a little strange when he looked at Gongsun Zhan.

It's okay to deceive yourself, don't deceive yourself.

However, Gu Rubing still comforted: "Brother Bogui, please mourn." ”

"Brother Xian, Yuan Shao is so ambitious, even if he strikes at this time, I am afraid that he will not give up easily, and sooner or later he will invade Youzhou."

A trace of worry appeared on Gongsun Zhan's face, and he said: "Yuan Shao's generals Lu Yi, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou are all famous generals in the world, especially Na Lu Yi, who not only killed my general Yan Gang, but also had 800 soldiers who died first, and it was difficult for me to resist alone. ”

Gongsun Zhan's words changed, stared at Gu Rubing tightly, and said: "Brother Xian is located in Qingzhou, I want to form an alliance with Brother Xian, and resist Yuan Shao, I don't know what Brother Xian wants?" ”

"Just what you want!"

Gu Rubing nodded, and said with a righteous face: "I am willing to advance and retreat with my brother, if Yuan Shaobing commits Youzhou, I will never sit idly by!" ”

"Hahaha!"

Hearing this, Gongsun Chan laughed, and was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly raised his wine glass and said, "Okay! You and I are allies, why are you afraid of Yuan Shao? Virtuous brother, drink this cup to the brim! ”

"Please!"

Hearing this, Gu Rubing also immediately raised his wine glass, clinked glasses with Gongsun Zhan, and then drank it with his sleeves covered.

Gongsun Zhan had just finished drinking, and immediately poured another cup, and said to everyone at the table: "Everyone, come, now that Yuan Shao has withdrawn from the army, and I have formed an alliance with Xuande, it is really a double happiness, everyone, drink together!" ”

Suddenly, everyone at the table raised their wine glasses, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Gongsun Zhan suddenly noticed Gu Rubing, who had been frowning slightly, and was puzzled in his heart, and asked, "Does the virtuous brother have something on his mind?" ”

Hearing this, Gu Rubing opened his mouth and said: "Brother Bogui doesn't know, I encircled and suppressed the Yellow Turban before, and sent troops to support Youzhou, and the losses were huge, all due to the lack of cavalry. ”
