    "Alas, Gongsun Zan still has the same temper after all these years." Liu Xiu shook his head helplessly and patted his thigh.  Xun You quickly glanced at Zhao Yun's urgent report and rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty, this may not be a good thing. It is more beneficial to us to eliminate Yuan Shao in the field than to trap him in Yixian. The only people to worry about now are Liu Bei and  If Gongsun Zan divides his troops, he will probably be defeated by Yuan Shao one by one. Yuan Shao will still return to Yi County and lose Gongsun Zan's troops in vain. " Liu Xiu nodded, he was also worried about this.  Gongsun Zan's move was an accident to him, and it was a stupid accident. If he wanted to pursue, he should pursue it with Liu Bei. You only have 5,000 men, how can you defend Yuan Shao's 20,000 men?  Why is this person so ignorant after suffering a loss? If you want to take revenge, you have to see how much strength you have in your hands, right?  "Your Majesty, I don't think it's Gongsun Zan that we should worry about. Even if his entire army is wiped out, he only has 5,000 men. We should worry that Yuan Shao will retreat south after discovering our army." Xun You looked at Liu Xiu's face and said sharply.  : "Gongsun Zan was defeated, and Liu Bei was still guarding Yi County. Yuan Shao would not be so arrogant. His most likely option was to retreat south, defeat Zhao Yun in a field battle, enter M County or Gaoyang, and maybe even withdraw all the way to  Within Anping Country, if this is the case, our front line will be too long." Liu Xiu smiled helplessly.  Don't let Gongsun Zan's life or death affect the entire war situation now, otherwise the entire plan may fail.  Once he cannot control Yizhou before the autumn harvest, he will have to transfer grain and grass from other states, and the war will be delayed again and again.  Liu Xiu discussed with Xun You, Zhang Yan and others, and then made adjustments to the original plan.  Let Zhang Yan lead the Yellow Turban Army to quickly enter Hejian and wait for opportunities to seize Wuyuan, Raoyang, Lecheng and other county towns to build the first line of defense.  At the same time, Loulu was ordered to lead the Wuhuan Jing cavalry into the river and follow Zhao Yun's command from south to north.  Be prepared to attack Yuan Shao, and be sure to stop Yuan Shao from escaping south.  At the same time, Wu Yan urgently wrote that if he had already captured the military capital, he would immediately lead his troops south to prepare to support Liu Bei and block Yuan Shao's northward escape.  Zhang Yan and Lou Lu took the order and left.  The army no longer hides and hides, and the Wuhuan people ride on their war horses.  There was a violent roar and roared past the city of Lunu. The Yellow Turban soldiers also packed up their bedding, brought all the siege equipment they had prepared, and used the rapid march they were best at, retreating from the city like a nest of ants.  Gone.  It was so dark that you couldn't even see the end of it.  No one dares to look down upon their insignificance.  Gao Lan stood at the top of the city, feeling chilly in his heart.  Unlike those soldiers, he thought it was safe when the Yellow Turban Army withdrew.  He could see the smoke rising into the sky in the distance. It was smoke that could only be carried by cavalry.  Massive cavalry?  There is no way this is the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army.  Gao Lan didn¡¯t see the battle flag in the distance.  But he guessed several possibilities. The frontier troops who were supposed to be fighting the Wuhuan people in Zhuolu had entered the fortress. There was a high probability that Feihu Fortress had been lost, and if nothing unexpected happened to the Wuhuan people, they would also suffer a disastrous defeat.  How he was defeated was no longer important. Gao Lan only knew that the development of the matter was far beyond Yuan Shao's surprise. Song Feng didn't seem to be as incompetent as Yuan Shao said. Perhaps, he had capable people around him to assist him.  As a general, it is not difficult to find a few capable people who are proficient in military operations as staff, at least not as difficult as Yuan Shao thought.  Gao Lan was thinking about what else he could do.  He did not dare to leave the city. He only had 5,000 men under his command, and they were mainly infantry. Once he encountered a large number of cavalry, he had no power to fight back.  All he could do was to inform Yuan Shao to be careful.  Gao Lan sent out more than a dozen messengers at one go, leaving the city from different directions. He must report everything he saw and thought to Yuan Shao, and then he locked the city gate tightly to ensure that the city of Lunu was not lost.  Gao Lan had just sent a messenger when he saw a shocking sight: a battle flag with a flaming red bird embroidered on it.  Gao Lan had never seen this battle flag, but he knew about it. He had heard too many topics about this battle flag from the defeated generals who had withdrawn from Yanzhou.  Ordinary soldiers don't think too much. They only remember that the battle flag represents an invincible opponent, an almost legendary figure. But the staff think more. They think of Yuan Shao's three legs from Suzaku.  Wu, thought of the prophecy about Yuan Shao, and thought of destiny.  These associations were enough to make those who had placed their family wealth on Yuan Shao collapse. When Yuan Shao returned to Yecheng, all his energy was spent on restoring the confidence of his subordinates. For this reason, he even revealed to those people the truth about the emperor's eldest son Liu Bian.  With the news in his hands, he could barely control the situation.  That crisis was resolved quickly, not because of Yuan Shao's efforts, but because before the war ended, Liu Xiu, who was in charge of the war, suddenly left the army and returned to Jiangling.  As soon as Liu Xiu left, the imperial court's counter-rebellion army lost its energy. The Yanzhou War ended hastily, and even the naval forces that had entered the Yellow River retreated.  Yuan Shao survived a desperate situationGeng Bao jumped out at the right time and once again promoted Yuan Shao's destiny.  In his words, Yuan Shao was the three-legged crow who only wanted to replace Tianming, and Liu Xiu's Suzaku was just an imitation.  He is like a raging fire cooking oil. He rises quickly and dies quickly.  As if to verify his judgment, the conflict between Liu Xiu and the Emperor became more and more intense. The sudden fall of Chu King Liu Yuanqi from the cliff finally exposed the conflict between them to everyone.  Next, Liu Xiu went to Beijing to force the palace.  Next, there was no news about Liu Xiu.  Although there is no news about Liu Xiu, the Prince of Chu's Mansion is under house arrest, Liu Xiu's personal guard camp has disappeared without a trace, and Liu Xiu's best friends Zhao Yun, Xia Houyuan and others have been demoted. These news come one after another, all of which verify Geng Bao.  The prophecy inspired the morale of Yuan Shao's men.  Including Gao Lan¡¯s morale.  Their confidence began to swell like urine.  Today, the Suzaku war flag suddenly appeared in front of Gao Lan. With a slight touch, the bulging penis burst. All dreams disappeared, leaving only a stinking smell.  Gao Lan was dumbfounded.  His whole body was cold, and the hot wind blew on his face, making him feel chilled to the bone.  Liu Xiu is not dead?  Gao Lan asked himself repeatedly, was he leading troops again?  Gao Lan originally thought that Feihu Dao was a little unreasonable, but now he feels that it is natural. There are too many miracles that have happened to Liu Xiu, and how can the small Feihu Dao stop his pace.  Gao Lan's fear spread silently like a plague.  First, the guards around him noticed the battle flag, and then more soldiers discovered it. When asking for orders, they also discovered the chill hidden in Gao Lan's silent body.  The army stopped in the distance, and a war horse slowly galloped up from the war flag. A young officer sat upright on the horse, his body swaying slightly with the pace of the war horse, and the red helmet tassel on his head was like a ball of flames.  He did not bring any long weapons, but a ring knife hung on his waist, a bow and a pot of arrows behind his back.  "Captain" the guard's voice was trembling, "Do you want to order the archers to prepare?" Gao Lan smiled bitterly. The fear in the hearts of these guards was deeper than him.  These people were fierce soldiers who followed him in the northern Xinjiang. They usually have eyes that reach to the top of their heads and think very highly of themselves. Especially after Yan Liang and Wen Chou, two of Yuan Shao's most famous generals, were captured, they became even more arrogant.  I feel that my captain is the most capable general around Yuan Shao, and he has no one left.  It's really rare to see such a timid look today.  "He is just one person, how can he still seize the city alone?" Gao Lan forced himself to calm down and shouted.  The guard responded with a pale face, lowered his head in embarrassment, and stepped aside.  Gao Lan took a step forward, holding the battlements with both hands, narrowing his eyes slightly, looking at the officer who was getting closer and closer.  As the figure got closer and closer, the chatter on the city wall stopped unconsciously. Everyone held their breath and looked nervously at the man below the city.  The sound of hoofbeats was very special, and the war horse was not walking very fast, but it was not until ten steps below the city that the officer reined in the reins.  The Xiliang war horse stopped, paved the ground twice, snorted, and stood quietly.  "His Royal Highness, King Chu of the Han Dynasty, and General Liu Xiu, have something to tell Colonel Gao Lan." The officer's voice was not particularly loud, but every word was clear and could be heard clearly.  Gao Lan sighed secretly, now it was confirmed that Liu Xiu was not only alive, but also promoted again.  General, who served as a general as a vassal king, he can be said to be the first in the history of the Han Dynasty.  Needless to say, he has taken control of the court and the little emperor has become a puppet. No one will be able to help Yuan Shao or restrain Liu Xiu from now on.  This is by no means good news.  There was a voice in Gao Lan's heart.  "May I ask if the high school captain is here?" the young officer below the city shouted loudly.  Gao Lan took a deep breath, took a step forward, and shouted loudly: "Gao Lan is here. If your Highness has anything to say, please say it to your face. The two armies are fighting. I forgive Gao Lan for not being able to leave the city to talk together." The officer smiled slightly and paused.  After a pause, he loudly said word by word: "Your Highness said, Shen Pei has surrendered, Tian Feng has surrendered, Yan Liang has surrendered, Wen Chou has surrendered, what are you waiting for, Gao Gao Lieutenant?" Gao Lan was stunned.  He guessed that the other party came to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect that he could persuade him to surrender so domineeringly.  These names are all famous people in Yuan Shao's tent. They are either celebrities or generals. No one of them can be compared to Gao Lan.  But now, they have all surrendered. The only difference is that Shenpei surrendered in defeat and was beheaded by Liu Xiu while patrolling Yanzhou. The others have all been made prisoners. As for whether they are dead or alive now, Gao Lan is not sure.  The soldiers on the city looked at each other in confusion. Their mood was similar to that of Gao Lan. Those who were more famous than Gao Lan had surrendered to Liu Xiu. Can they turn things around?  Apart from surrendering, what other option does Gao Lan have?  What he can doThe choice may be just to surrender like Shen Pei, or to surrender like Yan Liang.  Whether it is life or death, it just depends on the time of surrender.  They looked at the empty ground outside the city that was still the Yellow Turban Army camp in the morning, and seemed to understand something. It was not that General Liu couldn't take Lunucheng, but General Liu was disdainful.  Please search for Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
