In the Sheriff's Mansion, Wang Yan stood at the door of the hall, looking at the dripping rain with a bright smile on his face. He turned to look at Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others, and said with a smile: "Wen He, Feng Xiao, do you think God is going to accept Yuan Shao? This rain has come at the right time. In this way , the whole plan is flawless, Yuan Shao will definitely fall into the trap. " Jia Xu replied: "Those who are successful will have more help, and those who are unjust will have less help. If the Lord allows the people to leave the county, they will not be engulfed by fire, and they will definitely get Pingyuan County. The support of the people. When the news comes out, the people of Pingyuan County and even Qingzhou will definitely join in sincerity. I guess it¡¯s because of God¡¯s will that rains like this are specially made to allow my lord to defeat Yuan Shao.¡± Wang Yan laughed and ordered. Said: "Send the order to Huang Zhong, prepare to break out." "No!" After receiving the order, Jia Xu immediately arranged for someone to convey the order. Outside the city, Yuan Shao has woken up. Under the heavy rain, Yuan Shao's body was already wet from the rain. He looked at the continuous pouring rain with unwilling eyes and murmured to himself: "I am unwilling to give in. I am obviously going to win. Why, why is it raining heavily?" Guo Tu stood aside with a solemn expression and said: " The matter has come to this, please take care of yourself. Let Wang Yan escape this time, and there will be another chance." Yuan Shao said coldly: "Siege the city immediately." "No, lord!" "It's raining heavily now, and when the soldiers go to attack the city, they can't even see clearly, which is very disadvantageous. Furthermore, the fire in the city has just been extinguished, and the morale of the Qingzhou soldiers is high. If we attack the city at this time, we will not have the advantage. Please think again, my lord." Jushou stood aside, his heart was cold, and he suggested: "After the soldiers in the city experienced the fire, they escaped from death, and their spirits must be high. If we attack the city now, we will not be able to suppress the opponent's morale. Tomorrow morning, when they wake up "After seeing the devastated Pingyuan City, my heart must have dropped, and my morale has plummeted. That is the best time to attack the city tomorrow morning." After hearing the advice of the two counselors, Yuan Shao had no choice but to take it lightly. With a sigh, he ordered: "Call all the troops to withdraw to the east gate." The troops were distributed everywhere and were easily attacked. Yuan Shao recalled all the troops to avoid being attacked by Wang Yan. After a short time, the armies from all sides arrived at the east gate one after another, and then stopped to rest. Under night, the pouring rain continued. I don¡¯t know when at night, the rain gradually became lighter and then stopped. The next morning, early in the morning, the sun was rising. After the rain, the air is fresh. The golden sun shines down, and the rainwater reflects the light in the puddles outside the city, making the city inside and outside a golden light, which is spectacular. Yuan Shao rested for a night and felt much better. After breakfast, Yuan Shao summoned the generals to discuss matters. Yuan Shao's eyes were sharp and his slightly pale face was full of anger. He said in a deep voice: "We must capture Pingyuan City today. Wang Yan is already a lost dog and will definitely lose." I found that all the city gates in Pingyuan County were open. There was no one in the city. I expected that Wang Yan had taken advantage of the heavy rain to evacuate last night. "Yuan Shao was very angry. With nowhere to vent his anger, he asked loudly: "Didn't you find out last night?" Guo Tu explained: "At that time, everyone thought that Wang Yan would not leave the city. Unexpectedly, Wang Yan actually gave up the county seat on his own initiative." Yuan Shao snorted. , said in a deep voice: "You, Guo Tu, sometimes make mistakes." Guo Tu said: "It's a humble job and incompetent!" Yuan Shao waved his hand and said: "That's it, Wang Yan gave way to Pingyuan City, just in time, we can enter. Find out about Wang Yan immediately , Be sure to find out Wang Yan's location." "No!" Guo Tu took a step back after receiving the order. Yuan Shao changed the topic and said: "Pingyuan County's strategy failed, and the army entered the city again to garrison. Now it is Wang Yan who is the main attacker. I want to see what Wang Yan can use to defeat Pingyuan City." Jushou said: " Lord, there is a fire in the city. If you enter the city now, I'm afraid" Yuan Shao waved his sleeves and ordered: "The reason why I entered the city is to attract Wang Yan. As long as I am in Pingyuan County, I am not afraid that Wang Yan will not come. Pingyuan City is the boundary, and we want to fight him?" After a pause, Yuan Shao continued: "Pingyuan City is always under my control. If we want to enter Jinan, we will have to travel a long distance and the food road will be too long, which is not good for us. In Pingyuan City, with Jizhou at its back, there is a steady stream of troops, food, grass and weapons. Compared with Jizhou, Qingzhou has a weak foundation. I don't believe that Wang Yan can afford it.Furthermore, Wang Yan wants to regain Pingyuan County in this battle, so no matter what he does, he will definitely attack Pingyuan City. I can just rest here and wait for work. " Jushou cupped his hands and said, "My lord is wise! " "Report! " Suddenly, a soldier hurried over. Yuan Shao asked: "What's the matter? " The soldier reported: "Sir, General Chunyu Qiong has returned from Le'an Country. " "My Lord, I am incompetent, please punish me!" " Chunyu Qiong hurried into the camp. He looked embarrassed, with a tired look on his face, and his clothes were ragged and dilapidated. The general who led the army to Le'an Kingdom was Chunyu Qiong. Yuan Shao looked unhappy and asked : ¡°What happened, what¡¯s going on? " Chunyu Qiong replied: "Report to the lord, I will pretend to retreat to the road to Pingyuan City. Was ambushed by Wang Yan's troops. In the first ambush, the general blocked the opponent's attack. But the general never expected that he would be ambushed twice more on the way back. After three ambushes, all the soldiers under his command were lost, and only about a hundred soldiers came back. " "Asshole! " Yuan Shao was so angry that Chunyu Qiong was so scared that he knelt on the ground tremblingly. At this time, Yuan Shao was in an extremely depressed mood. Last night, when he was about to defeat Wang Yan, he was suddenly hit by heavy rain, so that his victory was almost defeated. Early this morning, Chunyu Qiong also He fled back from Le'an Kingdom in despair. Although Yuan Shao had no hope that Chunyu Qiong would achieve military exploits, Chunyu Qiong's army of more than 10,000 went to Le'an Kingdom, but less than a hundred people returned. Such a loss made Yuan Shao furious. Chunyu Qiong said: "The general is incompetent. Please punish me, my lord. " Yuan Shaogang wanted to get angry, but he thought that people's hearts were floating now, and it was the time to employ people. He comforted him: "This battle is not your fault, it is Wang Yan who is too cunning. I will note your punishment for now. I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself and make meritorious service. Go down and rest first! " "Thank you, Lord!" " Chunyu Qiong breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and retreated. Yuan Shao ordered: "Guo Tu, send spies into the city to see if there is an ambush by Wang Yan. " Guo Tu replied: "My lord, my humble position has been confirmed, and there is no ambush in the city. " "Send the order and the army enters the city. " Yuan Shao gave the order and waved everyone to retreat, leaving him alone in the camp to meditate. This failure made Yuan Shao very disappointed. He thought he was going to win a big victory, but he didn't expect the final result to make him so disappointed. The army was very disappointed. They quickly broke up camp and marched into the city. Yuan Shao led his army to the city and stationed it. However, the people who left the county town last night did not return to the city because the people were afraid and worried that there would be another war in Pingyuan City. It would not be worthwhile for them to lose their lives then, so they simply hid. Watching outside the city.
