On the southern border of Liaoxi County, the New Year Pass was approaching, and the army led by Qiantai and Yuan Shao braved the wind and snow and fought continuously on the battlefield.

The southern border of Liaoxi County is a low, hilly area with wasteland covered with heavy snow. But after every great battle, the earth will be trampled in mud, the frozen reading questions will be melted by the blood, and the corpses will be poured into the muddy water, and they will be frozen by the cold again.

Different from siege warfare, in the wasteland, the battle depends on the military formation set up by the commander and the bravery of the soldiers, and the victory or defeat depends on the strength of the troops.

The 150,000 army led by Qiantai and Yuan Shao's army had fought three times in the wasteland for two days. The casualties were horrifying.

In the barracks, Qin Tieshu reported: "Master Hou, in the past two days, our army's casualties have been nearly eight thousand, plus Yuan Shao's stealing camp last night, I estimate that the number of troops this thief put into the battlefield has reached nearly 200,000, and we can't go on like this." ”

Qiantai looked in the direction of the outside of the barracks, and on the battlefield in the distance, Qiantai's eyesight could clearly see the blood-red dirt and snow, and I don't know how many people died on the battlefield. Qiantai was equally angry and stingy at the tragic death of so many soldiers.

Yuan Shao has gathered 200,000 troops on the border of western Liaoning, and this time he made up his mind to kill Qiantai out of Liaoxi County and completely defeat Qiantai. Now beside Qiantai, there are only 150,000 soldiers left. The disparity between the soldiers on both sides was huge.

Facing Qin Tieshu's report, Qiantai put away his mood and comforted: "Now the army led by Qianming is still in the mountains, and we have to wait." ”

At this time, Liu Boxi was still in the camp. Liu Boxi on the side said: "Master Hou, at this time, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Qiantai said to Liu Boxi: "What is Boxi's plan?" Hurry up. ”

"Master Hou, it's not a good idea, if our army wants to withstand Yuan Shao's pressure now, we need to borrow troops from Youbeiping County. Liu Boxi said.

Now there are not enough troops in Zhuo County behind Qiantai, and the two places of Yuyang and Lelang in the south cannot quench their thirst, and only the army of the adjacent Youbeiping County can support here at this time. But although Youbeiping County is now out of Yuan Shao's control, it has not taken refuge in Qiantai, and it is equally difficult for the generals to transfer troops from Youbeiping County.

Qiantai thought about it, Liu Boxi's thoughts did not conflict with the layout in his heart. He said to the two of them: "Now that's the only way, next I will write a letter, Qin Mu ('Mu' is the word of Qin Tieshu), you immediately sent someone to the Youshui Sect Mountain Gate in Youbeiping County." ”

Qin Tieshu and Liu Boxi in the camp couldn't help but relax a little when they heard the voice, and the Hou Ye really had a connection with the Youshui Sect in Beiping County.

The relationship between Qiantai and Youbeiping County is that five years ago, the Liaoxi Zhenren of Youshui Sect went to assassinate Qiantai, and was later captured and controlled by the second elemental god. Therefore, the current Youshui Sect has secretly compromised with Qiantai, and there have been correspondence in secret.

In general, this time Qiantai has reached the most dangerous moment.

Yuan Shao only had 180,000 troops before, and these days he has looted some troops from nowhere and gathered 200,000 troops.

Yuan Shao's move was also very accurate, and he did seize the opportunity to defeat Qiantai as much as possible.

Qiantai had only 150,000 troops, a difference of 50,000 from Yuan Shao. On this plain, when there is no need for stratagems, and it is all about fighting in military formations and competing in numbers, Qiantai cannot take advantage of it at all. And Qiantai could not retreat at this time, he finally won the northern four counties of Shanggu County from Yuan Shao's hands, if Qiantai retreated, he would immediately face the scene of Yuan Shao's 200,000 troops chasing south. The four newly conquered counties of Shanggu County have just been stabilized, and they will definitely be chaotic again because of the war, and it will not necessarily be possible for Yuan Shao to return to Shanggu County.

In the snowfield on the side of the battlefield, there are also five thousand tigers such as Qianming who are also trapped in the mountains, if Qiantai retreats, then these people will also face Yuan Shao's siege of the mountain.

But at this moment of crisis, Qiantai deliberately contributed to this kind of scene early in the morning, even if he had fallen behind at this time, although he was stingy with the soldiers who died in battle every day, he still had a stalemate with Yuan Shao here, and worked hard to fight with Yuan Shao. Qiantai was waiting, waiting for a very likely change that he was waiting for on the battlefield.

．．．．．．．．．．．．．．．．．．．

On the land of Youzhou, there are three counties in the northernmost part, namely Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Daijun, the deepest ice and snow zone in the north of Youzhou.

When Qiantai was fighting with Yuan Shao in Liaoxi County, in Dai County, in the middle of this frozen and cold area, there was a snow city. The largest palatial and crystalline mansion in the city is the mansion of Changsun Sheng, the right Xiaowei general who suppressed the demon cultivation of Daijun in the north.

The family of the eldest grandson in the north is the home of a number of border generals in the Great Jin Dynasty, and the heads of the family in the past dynasties are hereditary right Xiaowei generals, who were ordered to suppress Daijun, a world-famous place where demons lurk, representing the power of the imperial court in this place.

In the palace of General Xiaowei on the right, the courtyard of the boudoir of Changsun Sheng's daughter-in-law, Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Sheng and his eldest son Changsun De are discussing the affairs of the south with Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Sheng is a middle-aged martial artist with a pale face and a sturdy body, but when he wears armor, he is a ruthless and cunning general. At this time, he took the letter sent by Qiantai to the mansion of Changsun Sheng earlier, and asked Wuji, the little girl who was by Qiantai's side many years ago, and said: "Daughter, what do you think of this marquis of the Qianzu clan, you lived with him in the palace when you were young, you must know this person's personality. Do you think my eldest grandson's family should raise troops to support Jixian Hou this time?"

Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wujian carefully recalled the bits and pieces of the past five years ago, and seriously told his father that the eldest grandson Sheng said: "Father, Jixian Hou is a filial person, and he is very talented and has a lot of opportunities. ”

Gongsun Sheng frowned when he heard this, holding the letter, very hesitant.

The eldest grandson on the side frowned and said, "Sister, do you think that my eldest grandson's family should face Yuan Shao this time, or help this Jixian Hou?"

When the eldest grandson heard this, he also thought about his opinion very seriously, the eldest grandson Wujian was born as a member of the eldest grandson's family, she recognized her father and brother when she returned home, and her family also took her well, so she naturally wanted her family more. At what time, after all, blood is thicker than love, and things in the world are all intimate and different.

The eldest grandson Wujian thought about it carefully, and couldn't help but think of his life in Shangjing back then, but fortunately, in the end, he said to her father and brother very fairly: "Father, brother, I don't know how Yuan Shao is, but I think if we help Jixian Hou this time, how can we also send carbon in the snow, and according to my understanding, Jixian Hou will not treat my eldest grandson family badly afterwards." ”

Changsun Sheng snorted angrily on the side: "Yuan Shao'er is naturally cunning, and colludes with the people of the demon path in the county, ignoring the people in the county, so he is naturally not a good person. ”

"Then, father, are we going to choose Jixian Hou?" asked Changsun De.

Changsun Sheng nodded and smiled: "Since this is the case, then we will help this Jixian County to wait for once." After speaking, the eldest grandson Shengyou comforted his daughter a few words, and left by himself, leaving the eldest grandson Wujian brother to chat with him in the room.

In the past two days, the armies of Yuan Shao and Qiantai have been constantly rushing and killing on the southern snowfield, and it has reached the time when they are competing for the number of dead every day.

But Qiantai could not retreat, at most he could only borrow some troops from Youbeiping County, try to ensure the daily casualties of his army, and fought with Yuan Shao every day.

Qiantai was waiting patiently, and every day with Qin Tieshu and Liu Boxi in the army to deduce the sand table, leading troops to rush and kill outside the battle, with the continuous war, the southern part of Liaoxi County attracted more and more hatred and attention from Yuan Shao on the other side.

By this time, Yuan Shao had already believed that Qiantai could no longer increase his army. If the two sides drag on like this, they will definitely be able to eat Qiantai and defeat the army that went north to defeat and slaughter.

But on this day, in mid-December, Sun Sheng, the eldest of Youzhou Dai County, suddenly attacked Yuan Shao's back and occupied the empty Liaodong County and Liaoxi County.

Some of the demon cultivators who Daijun had befriended Yuan Shao urgently summoned to warn Yuan Shao.

Just when Yuan Shao's rear was on fire, three thousand tiger horsemen suddenly appeared in Qiantai's army, led by Qianming into the battlefield, defeating Yuan Shao's army in a big battle. Qiantai even took the opportunity to lead the army to kill Yuan Shao, so he had to quickly withdraw his defense.

It turned out that as early as a day ago, the doppelganger Yan Du had found the lost Qianming and the scattered Tiger Ben Rider from the snowfield, and found most of them. But in this snow disaster, hundreds of people still died tragically and nearly 1,000 were injured, so in the end, only 3,000 people were taken by the doppelganger Yan Du and hid in the snowfield, and later they could be used as surprise soldiers to rush into the battlefield.

Yuan Shao, who was defeated by Qiantai's tactics, had to withdraw his troops to defend the chassis in the middle of Liaoxi and Liaodong counties.

The next day, to the surprise of Qiantai and Yuan Shao, Murong Dan of Bingzhou on the side also came with troops and appeared in the west of Liaoxi County to pick up Yuan Shao's cheapness.

At this time, under the siege of the north, south and west, Yuan Shao's troops could not be compensated, and at this time, Qiantai suddenly found that Yuan Shao'er had reached the end of the road. Yuan Shao concentrated his forces so that he could only defend in the two counties.
