On the one hand, Yuan Shao led the soldiers to retreat, and on the other hand, he asked Xu You to send soldiers to pass the news of the retreat to Cao Cao. (）

Gongsun Zhan attacked Jizhou, giving Yuan Shao enough reason to withdraw to Jizhou.

When Yuan Shao led his troops to Jizhou, Jia Xu and Li Ru had already begun to clean up the mess. The army pursued and killed most of the night, capturing countless soldiers.

All the captives were taken back to Jingyang County and imprisoned.

Li Ru and Jia Xu also led their troops into the city, and let their soldiers stay in the county to rest.

In the hall of the county government, there was no figure of the county order. Although Li Ru and Jia Xu were not the county commanders of Jingyang County, Wang Can controlled Guanzhong, and Li Ru and Jia Xu naturally occupied the magpie's nest and threw the county decree of Jingyang County aside to rest, while the two sat in the county hall in a dignified manner.

Below, sat Zhou Cang, Xu Rong, Huang Zhong and Dian Man.

Li Ru asked, "General Huang, has the number of prisoners been counted?" ”

Huang Zhong nodded and said, "It has been counted, excluding the burned corpses, we have captured more than 25,000 soldiers. The captives had been separated and held in order to prevent them from joining forces to rebel. ”

Jia Xu then asked, "General Xu, how are the losses of our army?" ”

Xu Rong said: "Mr. Jia, the losses of our army are not large, but with the soldiers who were pursued and killed by Yuan's army when they retreated, they also lost as many as 6,000 people. We started with more than 20,000 soldiers, and now we have only about 14,000 left. As for the broken barracks, only a dozen soldiers were injured, and the impact was not great. ”

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Defeat Yuan Shao, we have completed the task of resisting Yuan Shao." It's just that the more than 20,000 soldiers captured must be treated carefully, even if these soldiers are scattered and incorporated into the soldiers, the Yuan army occupies too large a column, and once the Yuan soldiers are connected in series, it is easy to mutiny. ”

Xu Rong asked, "Mr. Jia, what are your ideas?" ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "There is no clever strategy, but there is still a stupid way, we left 10,000 prisoners, incorporated 10,000 into the army, and then sent soldiers to send the remaining 10,000 prisoners to Chang'an, so that Gao Shun broke up and incorporated into the army." ”

When several people heard this, they all nodded in agreement.

10,000 men were incorporated into the army, which was enough to make it impossible for these captives to be strung together. As for the remaining more than 10,000 captives, all of them were sent to Chang'an, which would also prevent them from rebelling.

"Step! Trample! ”

Outside the hall, a rush of footsteps sounded.

The scout in charge of investigating the news quickly ran into the hall, clenched his fists and said, "Report, Yuan Shao has withdrawn his troops and returned to Jizhou." ”

Li Ru raised his eyebrows, and a puzzled look appeared on his face. After the army defeated Yuan Shao, after consulting with Jia Xu, he finally decided to station in Jingyang County to prevent Yuan Shao's surprise attack.

However, when Yuan Shao withdrew to Jizhou, the situation changed again.

As long as Yuan Shao's army left, Li Ru and Jia Xu could lead their troops back to Chang'an and send troops to support Guo Jia. Cao Cao did not have Yuan Shao as a reinforcement, and it was difficult to support it alone, and it was possible to withdraw his troops and return to Yanzhou, after all, it was only Cao Cao who wanted to defeat Wang Can, and it was almost impossible.

Li Ru hurriedly asked: "Yuan Shao withdrew to Jizhou, is the news confirmed?" ”

The scout nodded and said, "We caught a soldier of the Yuan army, and interrogated Yuan Shao to withdraw to Jizhou, and the news is true." ”

"Whew! Call! ”

Jia Xu let out a long sigh and said, "With Yuan Shao's character of retribution, he is definitely unwilling to withdraw his troops. Now that the news of Yuan Shao's withdrawal from Jizhou is familiar, it may be that there is a problem in Jizhou. I guess it was Gongsun Zhan who was about to move in Youzhou, so Yuan Shao hurriedly withdrew to Jizhou! ”

Dian Man pouted and said: "Even if Yuan Shao stays, we can defeat Yuan Shao, Yan Liang and Wen Chou have been killed, Yuan Shao is a tiger with teeth extracted, and he can no longer be arrogant." ”

Zhou Cang said in a deep voice: "No matter what, Yuan Shao's withdrawal of troops is a good thing. ”

After a pause, Zhou Cang said again: "Lord Li, when leading the troops to pursue Yuan Jun last night, the soldiers encountered a prisoner cart, and Yuan Shao's strategist Tian Feng was imprisoned in the car, how to deal with this person?" ”

Li Ru said: "Tian Feng will be handed over to me and Wen He to deal with, see if we can persuade Tian Feng to surrender." ”

Jia Xu continued: "Yuan Shao withdraws the army, and we can also withdraw the army." ”

After a pause, Jia Xu ordered: "General Huang, you take Xu Rong, Dianman and Zhou Cang to rectify the soldiers, so that the soldiers can recover as soon as possible." We rested in Jingyang County for two days before returning to Chang'an. "Two days can not only allow the soldiers to rest and recuperate, but also continue to investigate Yuan Shao's movements to determine whether Yuan Shao has really withdrawn to Jizhou.

Huang Zhong and the four of them agreed to come down with their fists, turned around and left the hall.

After the four of them left, Li Ru immediately ordered the soldiers to bring Tian Feng to the hall. After a short time, an unkempt middle-aged man walked in.

The middle-aged man is Tian Feng.

Tian Feng walked into the hall with his head held high, and the soldiers who escorted Tian Feng in turned and left.

Jia Xu and Li Ru looked at it, only to see Tian Feng's hair in a messy bun, looking tired, although he raised his head and stood tall, but when he walked, his steps seemed a little vague, and his body had a feeling of lightness. It's just that Tian Feng's eyes are still bright, and he looks extraordinarily sharp.

After he entered the living room, he didn't pay attention to Jia Xu and Li Ru, and sat down directly.

Li Ru asked: "Mr. Tian, Yuan Shao doesn't listen to his advice, he is not Mr. Tian's master, and he can't use Mr. Tian's talents." My lord Wang Canxian is resolute and ambitious, I wonder if Mr. Tian is willing to submit to my lord? ”

Talking to Tian Feng, Li Ru didn't say anything false, and went straight to the point.

Tian Feng's voice was a little hoarse, and he said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shao is indeed very stupid, if he adopts my opinion, fights steadily, step by step, and approaches Chang'an step by step, how can there be such a big defeat." For Yuan Shao, Tian Feng was already very disappointed, because Yuan Shao actually left him on the battlefield, obviously leaving him to fend for himself.

In fact, when Tian Feng was imprisoned, he already knew his end.

If Yuan Shao defeated Li Ru and Jia Xu, Yuan Shao would definitely not kill him, but would treat Tian Feng as a negative example, so that everyone would remember Tian Feng.

However, once Yuan Shao loses the battle, Tian Feng will definitely die.

Yuan Shao has a good face, he can't face up to his failures, and it's impossible to bow his head and admit his mistakes. And Yuan Shao is not reluctant to face a direct minister like Tian Feng, and he will definitely kill Tian Feng. When Yuan Shao left, he asked Feng Ji to dispose of Tian Feng, perhaps because Feng Ji intended to leave Tian Feng's life, so he left Tian Feng on the battlefield instead of killing Tian Feng directly.

Jia Xu said lightly: "Tian Feng, the success or failure of right and wrong has been decided, you understand Yuan Shao's character, Yuan Shao's failure is also destined, it is useless to say more!" ”

"Hahaha......"

Tian Feng suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Well said, hit the nail on the head!" Yuan Shao's character has long been doomed to failure, and it is difficult for Yuan Shao to achieve great things, because I am too demanding. After a pause, Tian Feng said: "Although I was abandoned by Yuan Shao, I am still a minister of the Yuan family. I won't say much about the two of them, give me a good time! ”、

After speaking, Tian Feng held his head high and insisted on dying.

Li Ru said: "Mr. Tian, good birds choose trees to perch, virtuous ministers choose the master to do things, you have great talent, and Yuan Shao can't use your strategy, this is Yuan Shao's loss, why do you insist on dying for Yuan Shao?" ”

Tian Feng shook his head and did not explain.

Seeing this, Jia Xu shouted loudly: "Someone! ”

Suddenly, a soldier quickly ran in.

Li Ru saw the soldiers running in, looked at Jia Xu suspiciously, and asked, "Wenhe, what are you doing here?" Tian Feng has great talent, and when the Lord is just employing people, Tian Feng can't be killed. No matter what Li Ru thought, Tian Feng himself breathed a sigh of relief, he was killed like this, it was a hundred, and there was no more entanglement.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Stay with Tian Feng and take care of it, if Tian Feng has an accident, you are the only one who asks!" ”

The soldier responded with a fist, ready to take Tian Feng down.
