Jizhou's army mobilized, and with Xu You's wisdom, Yuan Shao finally chose to attack Youzhou. Even if Tian Feng tried to dissuade him, it would be difficult for Yuan Shao to change his stance. In addition, Xu You and the belligerent party were trying to persuade him behind the scenes, which made Yuan Shao confident.
Yuan Jun moved quickly. In addition to the 80,000 troops marching into Youzhou, Yuan Shao also sent 50,000 troops to garrison Wei County. Prevent Liu Jiajun from attacking. As for the people guarding the general, it is none other than Zhang Jia.
In addition, Xu You took Yuan Shao's troops to Zhao County. If you want the Black Mountain Army to fight with the Liu Army, lobbying is indispensable. This plan was Xu You's idea, and of course the person who lobbied for it was Xu You.
In addition to this, Wen Chou went all the way, and with more than ten thousand troops, Yuan Shao was extremely relieved. Even if they can't convince the Black Mountain Army, Wen Chou and Xu You won't have much difficulty in retreating safely.
The strength of the Black Mountain Army is mainly distributed in the Zhao Kingdom and Changshan Kingdom. In addition, the Black Mountain Army is present in Bingzhou, Hanoi and other places. Just because Liu Long intensified his suppression of the Black Mountain Army, they were either incorporated or expelled from Bingzhou and moved to Jizhou.
The total number of Montenegrin troops is as high as one million. Of course, many of these millions are old, weak, women and children. The large army has as many as 20,000 to 30,000 troops, while the small tribe only has 6,000 to 7,000 troops. It's just that there are many people and horses, but their equipment is not well-equipped, and each leader fights independently and does not belong to each other. This makes it impossible to compete with Liu and Yuan in recent years. Because of this, Liu Long's Liu Jiajun were driven out of Bingzhou. It was also because of Xu You that he was able to provoke the Black Mountain Army into becoming enemies with the Liu Family Army.
When Fanyang County, Zhuo County, Youzhou learned that Yuan Shao's army had begun to attack Youzhou, Gongsun Zan quickly ordered the mobilization of the army to gather in Fanyang. There were already 30,000 troops gathered in this city. The general leading the Youzhou army this time was none other than Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.
"General Zhang, I wonder if Marquis Wu Cheng has started mobilizing the army to march to Jizhou." On Fanyang City, Liu Bei and Zhang Liao stood on the city, Liu Bei said with a sad expression.
Zhang Liao's face didn't look good at this time. He was originally sent to deliver food and grass, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shao's army had already begun to take action, and the army had already reached the boundary of Zhuojun in Youzhou.
"Don't worry, General Liu. Although Jizhou is Yuan Shao's territory, our Liu family's army can see every move he makes. When Yuan Shao's army enters Youzhou, my lord will definitely attack Jizhou with a large army. As long as the Youzhou army resists Yuan Shao's army for a few days, these Yuan Jun will definitely withdraw to Jizhou." Zhang Liao spoke calmly, and was even more confident in his lord and Liu Jiajun.
Liu Bei couldn't help but shook his head. He was not as simple as Zhang Liao thought. Although he didn't know the strength of Liu's army, but with Yuan Shao's 80,000 troops entering Youzhou in front of him, and the generals leading the army this time were not fuel-efficient, how could Liu Bei I don¡¯t know.
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and Yuan Shao's army finally arrived at Zhuojun County. When the army approached Zhuojun City, a black enemy army surrounded Zhuojun City.
Yuan Shao's army sent out a lot of men and horses. The entire 80,000-strong army arrived, and its momentum was immeasurable. The commander of the 80,000-strong army this time was Qu Yi, besides Yan Liang and Wen Chou under Yuan Shao.
Since Qu Yi followed Yuan Shao, he was good at fighting and made many military exploits, which earned him the respect of Yuan Shao. This time the 80,000-strong army was led by him. As for the military advisor, they are Feng Ji and Shen Pei.
"Listen to the Youzhou army in the city. Gongsun Zan is greedy and selfish, but he is a treacherous villain. He is greedy for pleasure and chaos. This time, I, the Yuan army, came to Zhuo County to take Gongsun Zan's head. If you can open it quickly, If you surrender at the city gate, not only will we not kill you, but we will also reward you heavily. But if you hold on to the end, your city will be destroyed and everyone will die
"Yes, open the city gate quickly, otherwise you will die when the city is breached."
"Open the city gate quickly, otherwise you will surely die when the city is destroyed"
Yuan Jun's troops came to the city, each one holding their weapons high, shouting continuously, with high morale and fighting spirit. On the contrary, although the Youzhou army on the city still defended the city, they were all frightened, as if a disaster was imminent.
"General Zhang, what should you do? The battle has not started yet, and the morale of our Youzhou army has plummeted to the bottom. If the enemy attacks the city gate, our army will not have the strength to hold on." Yuan Jun approached the city and was about to say something. When they came out of the massacre, not only the soldiers on the city were in panic, but also many generals were in panic. A young general standing next to Liu Bei stepped forward in a panic and said to Zhang Liao.
The young man in front of me is none other than Gongsun Zan's younger brother Gongsun Fan. Liu Bei is the commander-in-chief of the Youzhou Army, and Gongsun Fan is the deputy commander-in-chief of this army. It's just that this person is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and it's difficult for him to succeed. Just in front of them, Zhang Liao and Liu Bei stood like pine trees, with no timidity on their expressions. Gongsun Fan Yi was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.
Regarding Gongsun Fan¡¯s actions, Zhang Liao frowned slightly. When he thought that his Liu family army was allied with such a large army, he couldn¡¯t help but sigh in his heart, "General GongsunYou must be panicked, Yuan Jun is just pretending to be mysterious. As long as our army holds on to this city, it will be difficult for Yuan's army to capture it no matter how many soldiers and horses they have. When the time comes, my lord's troops will launch an attack on Jizhou, and Yuan Shao will have to retreat. "
"It's so good, it's so good" After hearing Zhang Liao's assurance, Gongsun Fan couldn't help but pat his chest, and his originally panicked face calmed down.
Gongsun Fan, who had settled down, saw Yuan's army forming a formation outside the city. He was afraid that Yuan's army would suddenly launch an attack on the city. Just in case, he went down to the city with his own guards to hold on and escape quickly if the city was breached.
"General Zhang and General Liu, there are two guards on the city. It is already impregnable. Let's defend the city below to prevent Yuan Jun from breaking through the city." After Gongsun and Fan Chao handed over their hands, they quickly headed towards the city.
Looking at Gongsun Fan's back, Zhang Liao couldn't help but sigh and shake his head, "Zhang admires General Gongsun for his martial arts skills and courage. But he didn't expect his younger brother to be so timid and fearful"
Zhang Liao did not shy away from commenting on Gongsun Fan in front of Liu Bei, but Liu Bei did not stop him. Instead, he listened to Zhang Liao slowly. After listening, there was no trace of expression on his face, and his expression was the same.
"General Liu, now that Yuan's army is approaching the city with troops, as the commander-in-chief of the Youzhou Army, I wonder if there is a way to retreat from the enemy." As the commander-in-chief of the Youzhou Army, Liu Bei's deputy commander came down to the city, and he was the only one who could issue orders. Zhang Liao hurriedly asked Liu Bei.
Liu Bei glanced at where the sun was rising, and said calmly, "Yuan Jun's arrival is unkind and his morale is high. All our army can do is hold on. |"
Zhang Liao followed Liu Bei's gaze and when he saw a red sun slowly rising in the sky, Zhang Liao turned his eyes and looked at Liu Bei, "I'm afraid General Liu will not just hold on. After all, Yuan Jun came here in a hurry" ¡±
