- Fifty thousand soldiers and horses, that's half of Yuan Shao's army. It can be said that he has the bottom of his fortune.
In the battle of Lihu, Yuan Shao's 200,000-strong army was completely wiped out and only less than 70,000 of them escaped back to Hebei alive.
Yuan Shao was not discouraged. He felt that he owned Jizhou, the most populous state in the world. As long as he was given enough time, it would be no problem to gather another 200,000 troops.
It is a pity that Yuan Fang did not give him a chance to breathe, and launched a counterattack against him less than half a year after the decisive battle of Lihu.
There was no other way. In a few months, Yuan Shao scraped together things here and there, but he could only gather more than 30,000 troops.
Now, one point is more than half of the troops. Of course, Yuan Shao will find someone he trusts most to garrison in Liyang on his behalf.
After experiencing the blow of Xu You defecting and opening his jaws to the enemy, Yuan Shao could no longer fully trust any of his civil and military subordinates. At this time, only his own son could be trusted.
Although, this biological son Yuan Shang has no experience in commanding a large army in combat.
"My lord, Liyang is an important town and has great stakes. Although the Fourth Young Master is brave, his battle formation experience is insufficient. It seems a bit unsafe for the Fourth Young Master to defend Liyang."
The person who spoke out against it was Xin Ping, who had been silent.
Once Yuan Tan died, Yuan Shang became the only heir. Sooner or later, he would inherit Yuan Shao's legacy. Xin Ping knew this very well.
And once Yuan Shang comes to power, Xin Ping, who is from the Ruying sect, will be liquidated sooner or later.
What Xin Ping can do now is to try to prevent Yuan Shang from making great achievements. To delay his rise to power.
When Yuan Shang heard this, he became angry on the spot. He glared at Xin Ping and said: "Xin Zhongzhi, you underestimate me, Yuan Shang. Do you think I am like my elder brother and can't even defend a city? Besides, I still have a trial. With an assistant, a strong general like Guan Yu, and 50,000 soldiers, can't we defend Liyang City? I think you really underestimate me, a member of the Yuan family."
Yuan Shang satirized Yuan Tan. Taking advantage of the situation, he promoted himself.
Xin Ping felt resentful, but didn't know how to refute it, so he could only retreat in a depressed mood.
Once he shut up, no one dared to stop Yuan Shang.
Yuan Shao regards this son who is most like him. It is full of expectations. A banquet was held immediately. Traveling for Yuan Shangzhuang.
After the father and son expressed their generosity, Yuan Shang commanded an army of 50,000 and rushed to Liyang at starry night.
A few days later. Yuan Fang led an army of 80,000 people and arrived at Baima on the other side of Liyang in advance.
At this time, the remaining more than 60,000 troops are still on their way to assemble from various places. It is expected that it will take several days to assemble a 140,000-strong army.
????????????????????????????????????????????????.
At this moment, Yuan Fang could not help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart.
After crossing the surging Yellow River in front of you, you will reach the border of Hebei Province.
Back then, he was forced away by the Yuan family and his son, and fought all the way from Hebei to the Central Plains. After fighting for the rest of his life, he finally broke out with difficulty.
But today, he is leading an army of hundreds of thousands, and with his dream of unifying the north, he wants to cross the Yellow River and fight back to Hebei and Yecheng.
In addition to the dream of unifying the north, there is also his desire for revenge.
Now, the only thing separating him from revenge and dreams is the surging Yellow River.
"When Yuan Shao made a one-year appointment with me in order to favor Yuan Xi, I wonder if he ever thought that we would be in this situation today."
Yuan Fang looked at the Yellow River from afar, with a sneer on his lips, sighing about the past.
Guo Jia drank wine and said with a smile: "According to Yuan Shao's character, if he didn't say anything, he would definitely regret it in his heart. However, he definitely didn't regret favoring Yuan Xi, but regretted letting the tiger return to the mountain and not killing the lord earlier. "
Yuan Fang laughed heartily, his laughter full of sarcasm and fierce self-confidence.
A horse galloped up to Yuan Fang's horse. The man who came was none other than his disciple Zhuge Liang.
"Master, information has just been sent back from the north bank. Yuan Shao has ordered Yuan Shang to lead 50,000 elite troops to strengthen the defense of Liyang City." Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and said.
Yuan Shang?
The past events emerged in Yuan Fang¡¯s mind.
He thought of his unbearable experience in Yuan Mansion. In those years, brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi always bullied him blatantly.
But this Yuan Shang is obviously much smarter and rarely bullies Yuan Fang openly. However, he knows that Yuan Shang secretly puts small shoes on him and uses dirty tricks.
Although Yuan Fang and Yuan Shang briefly joined forces later, it was because Yuan Shang wanted to use Yuan Fang to suppress him.Tan.
When Yuan Shang saw that Yuan Fang was gradually growing up, he decisively sided with Yuan Tan. The two direct brothers joined forces to get rid of Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang keeps these hatreds in his heart and how can he forget them.
The two brothers, Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan, both came to seek death. Now Yuan Shang also came to challenge without knowing the current affairs. How could Yuan Fang spare him.
"Yuan Shang invites the army to Liyang this time. It is obvious that he wants to establish his prestige by defending Liyang. Otherwise, even if he inherits Yuan Shao's position in the future, he will not have the absolute prestige to subdue Yuan Shao's old troops." Jushou stroked his beard. analyzed.
Yuan Fang snorted coldly: "He still wants to inherit Yuan Shao's legacy. Just go ahead and dream. I won't give him this opportunity."
Yan Liang also shouted heroically: "Lord, what are you waiting for? Send your troops across the river immediately, kill that boy Yuan Shang, and let him go to hell to reunite with brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi."
The generals were eager to fight, and they all called for battle and advanced their troops.
Jushou said calmly: "Our entire army has not been assembled yet, but Yuan still has 50,000 soldiers, and there are generals like Guan Yu and Shen Pei as the mastermind. Our army only has 80,000 soldiers and horses. If we forcefully cross the Yellow River, we may be in trouble." Yuan Shang attacked him halfway across the river, but it would not be too late to wait for the army to gather before crossing the river with all his strength."
Jushou is worthy of being Jushou, and he always keeps a calm mind.
In the battle of Baima, Yuan Shao was too arrogant and did not gather all his troops to cross the river. Instead, he led the vanguard army to surround Baima first. As a result, Yuan Fang took advantage of the situation and was defeated.
Now Yuan Fang¡¯s Northern Expedition will certainly not repeat Yuan Shao¡¯s mistakes.
Moreover, Yuan Fang also wanted to give Yuan Shang a head-on blow as soon as possible to dampen his spirit.
He pondered for a moment. Yuan Fang did not adopt Ju Shou's strategy.
"Master, I think we should immediately send troops across the river to attack Liyang with the troops we have on hand without delay."
Zhuge Liang's confident words broke the silence, and he actually went against Ju Shou, the wisest man in Hebei.
Jushuo hurriedly said: "Our army is crossing the Yellow River with 80,000 soldiers and horses. What if Yuan Shang sends troops to block the attack halfway across the river?"
Yuan Fang¡¯s eyes lit up. A sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Ah Liang. If I guess correctly, you asked me to forcefully cross the Yellow River now, probably because you want to induce Yuan Shang to underestimate the enemy and take the initiative to attack."
Zhuge Liang has already prepared many strategies. Just waiting for Yuan Fang to let him continue. He just talks so much. Reveal it in front of everyone.
But he didn¡¯t expect that Yuan Fang¡¯s words revealed his intentions.
Zhuge Liang sighed helplessly. He smiled bitterly and said, "The disciple's thoughts cannot be hidden from the master."
Now that the strength of the north and the south has reversed, there is no doubt that Yuan Fang is stronger than Yuan Shang.
If Yuan Fang had gathered an army of 140,000 and had just crossed the river, Yuan Shang would have seen Yuan Fang's army and would not have dared to fight. He would have had to huddle in Liyang City with all his 50,000 troops and horses.
However, if Yuan Fang crosses the river with 80,000 troops and horses now, and Yuan Shang is eager to achieve great results and establish prestige, he may take the opportunity to attack when Yuan Fang does not have enough troops to cross the river and attack Yuan Fang.
As long as Yuan Shang dares to take the initiative, Yuan Fang will have a way to deal with him.
Yuan Fang understood what Zhuge Liang meant, and Ju Shou was also a wise man, so he suddenly realized it in a blink of an eye.
When he understood, Jushou couldn't help but look amazed, thinking to himself: "This Zhuge Liang is so young, but he has such wisdom and scheming. He is worthy of being the master's disciple. It is really impressive."
Ju Shou sighed, and Yuan Fang was not pleased.
This apprentice he trained with his own hands has finally achieved success in his studies and has gradually shown his strength in both civil and military affairs. The advice he has given in front of Ju Shou has greatly enhanced his reputation as a master.
Feeling pleased, Yuan Fang pointed his halberd to the north and said boldly: "Ah Liang, I have ordered you to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses to cross the Yellow River north tomorrow to lure Yuan Shang to attack. Do you have the courage?"
What an honor it is to be the first to cross the Yellow River and land in Hebei. Zhuge Liang knew that Yuan Fang deliberately asked him to accomplish this great feat and become famous in one battle.
Under secret joy, Zhuge Liang hurriedly raised his hands and said with emotion: "My disciple is willing to accept this life, master, just take it seriously.
The order was passed on, and the armies made secret preparations.
The next day, the east turned white and the sky was still dark.
Yuan Fang's army assembled at Baimadu on the south bank was already leaving camp one after another before dawn and started to act according to the predetermined plan.
Like a trestle in Shuiying, more than a hundred transport ships have raised their tents. Zhuge Liang ordered 30,000 soldiers to board the ships in an orderly manner, as if they were crossing the river.
Yuan Fangjun¡¯s every move was quickly sent to Hebei¡¯s headquartersNorth Shore.
The patrol on the north beach did not dare to hesitate and immediately sent this information to Yuan Shang in Liyang City.
At this time, Yuan Shang was still asleep, because he guessed that Yuan Fang would not dare to cross the river forcefully before the army was gathered, so there was nothing to worry about.
Yuan Shang, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by his subordinates, and only then did he learn this shocking information.
In an instant, Yuan Shang woke up from his sleep and said in surprise: "The army of bastards hasn't been assembled yet. Why are they crossing the river now? How many enemy troops are there?"
"Fourth Young Master, there are about a hundred enemy ferries, which should be able to ferry at least 30,000 people," the scout replied.
Thirty thousand people. With thirty thousand people, this bitch just wants to cross the Yellow River!
Yuan Shang's face calmed down, and a hint of contempt gradually appeared in his handsome eyebrows.
At this time, Guan Yu, who came after hearing the news, said excitedly: "Fourth Young Master, the little thief Yuan Fang wants to cross the Yellow River by force. This is a great opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation and kill him halfway across the river."
Attack it halfway across the river!
Yuan Shang's spirit suddenly shook, and some excitement burst out of his eyes.
Since Lihu, Yuan Shao and his son have been defeated by Yuan Fang in a row. If he can win a beautiful battle now, it will not only boost the morale of the Hebei army, but also make Yuan Shao happy. It will also make the civilized people of Hebei treat him. Watch with admiration.
This is a rare opportunity.
"Mr. Zhengnan, what do you think?" Yuan Shang looked at Shen Pei excitedly.
But the judge frowned and said nothing in a gloomy tone. (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
