Cao Jun did not continue to chase, this is the last thing Zhao Yun wants to see, because not far ahead, he has already arranged for two partial generals Gao Xiang and Yuan Qi to ambush, as long as they dare to pursue over, Cao Jun will not return, but unfortunately he watched Cao Jun retreat, and at that moment Zhao Yun's heart seemed to be dripping blood.

Zhao Yun was a pity, Gao Xiang and Yuan Qi were even more helpless, they ambushed again for almost two hours, but they didn't wait for anything, and they were overjoyed.

Gao Xiang and Yuan Qi sighed again and again, these two Gao Xiang were a group of thieves captured by Liu Lan when he first entered Pei County, because the party Zhuge Liang was generous, so Liu Lan did not execute them when he captured them, but instead incorporated them and his party, Gao Xiang was the best one of the few people at the beginning, and now he has achieved Zhao Yun's partial general.

And Yuan Qi is a young general, originally a native of Yingchuan, the year before last Yanyu several states of locust plague, all the way to Xuzhou, in Pei County for several years, but he was not the same group of Du Pu to join the army, at that time, one was young, the other Xiao Pei recruited soldiers only to recruit Tuntian Army, Du Pu was just lucky that Liu Lan came to Pei County, and Zhang Jaw personally tested his skills, these were exceptionally recruited, and he later joined the army with Du Yi.

It can be said that at that time, Yuan Qi and Du Yi were the two most outstanding generals in the army, but compared to Du Yi's time in Liaodong, Yuan Qi came back a year later than him, but this young man who had served as a former general and a general of the expedition to the west in history after the morale of the Later Shu Han Dynasty really entered Liu Lan's sight because of this.

This must be thanks to Romance, if it weren't for the fact that he later succeeded Jiang Wei, who was promoted to the general of the Fuhan Dynasty, to become the general of Zhengxi, Liu Lan really might not remember him, and at that time I wondered how this Yuan Qi from Yingchuan, Yanzhou, could have gone to Shu Han to become a general, and now it seems that he has found the reason.

At first, he, like other outstanding talents who came back from Liaodong, was left by Liu Lan's side, but he didn't have Du Yi's luck, or he was too lucky, and he was only three months by Liu Lan's side, and he was valued by Zhao Yun because of the first battle of Xuzhou, and under his every possible request, Liu Lan finally had to let go and transferred him to Zhao Yun's dragoon.

Although he was only seventeen years old at the time, he was also quickly recognized by Zhao Yun, and now under Zhao Yun, Zhang Cheng, Chen Ying, Gao Xiang and Yuan Qi are the number one generals, and this time Zhao Yun took the two of them to the expedition, and Zhang Cheng and Chen Ying guarded Xuzhou City.

Zhao Yun dismounted and returned to the foothold to get off the horse and ate some dry food briefly, leaned on a pine tree and closed his eyes to rest, Gao Xiang and Yuan Qi guarded the side, although Cao Jun did not come, but the two did not dare to relax their vigilance, once any situation occurred, he and the two could not only protect Zhao Yun, but also accept Zhao Yun's orders as soon as possible if they wanted to fight back.

The two of them can be valued by Zhao Yun, naturally have their own skills, at least their minds are very clear, of course they know what Pei County means, once Pei County is breached, then the west gate of Xuzhou City will be opened, when Cao Jun wants to come to Xuzhou, do whatever he wants, and after seeing Cao Cao's terrifying trebuchet, they also clearly know that the city wall of Xuzhou City cannot stop Cao Jun's attack at all.

It was after seeing this scene that Zhao Yun couldn't hold his breath and came here to wait for the opportunity, otherwise how could Cao Cao's scouts find them, but judging from the current results, they did not succeed, and the next one would become more difficult.

At this moment, suddenly a team of fast horses arrived, a scene of soldiers brought Liu Lan's latest instructions, Zhao Yun, who closed his eyes and rested, raised his head and took the letter, the content was the same as the decision he made before, but after such a battle, Zhao Yun had no confidence, he didn't know what to do with the lord's order, he felt that he was about to collapse, he had never met such an opponent, they were like a turtle, so you don't know where to start, and may suddenly bite you when you are not careful.

"General, what now?"

There is no need to ask Zhao Yun, you can guess what the content of the lord's handbook is by looking at his changing face through the afterglow of the torch, which is not surprising at all, but how should they deal with it, Cao Jun is not fooled, except for killing the past, they can hardly help anything, but if they kill the past, it is equivalent to throwing themselves into the net, the previous battle of Peixian, they had fought with Cao Cao, and their ability to fight against cavalry is second only to the infantry they have encountered, although they will not be defeated head-on, But there will be no big win either.

"We need to think it through." Zhao Yun said to the two of them, the previous series of deployments can be said to be his own decisions based on the battlefield situation, but now it has become an order, it is necessary to ensure that Peixian will not be lost within half a month, and ensure the time for Guan Yu's return.

Liu Lan's order revealed several messages, the first is to ensure that Pei County cannot be lost, the second is to ensure that Pei County will not be lost within half a month, and finally Guan Yu will return from Langya within half a month, that is to say, Guan Yu will return to Xuzhou from Jiujiang, Guangling, and then to Xiapi, Langya, Peixian, and Langya.

This long journey really made the Setshan camp hard, but it also showed the difficulty of the third battle of Xuzhou, they were almost always dragged by their noses, and sometimes they didn't even have the ability to control the situation, just like now, he had to know what the lord's plan was, and exchange the price of a Pei county for a big victory over Yuan Shao.

Once upon a time, a series of measures by the Chen Palace made countless people convinced of the extremely bold decision of the lord, without any doubts, and even admired the wisdom of the lord, a Chen palace was almost 100,000 people, if it weren't for him, in the entire Zhengxi General's Mansion, no one could have his strength to block Cao Cao's 100,000 coalition troops.

But now, the situation has changed, there has been an accident, this situation does not mean that Chen Gong is not working, but that their opponent has become stronger, that trebuchet is a big killer that Chen Gong cannot destroy and destroy, in this case, if even Chen Gong has no way, then he believes that there will not be too many ways in this world.

Anyway, he doesn't have this ability, almost the same as Chen Gong, maybe his troops are now in the hands of Chen Gong, and there will be a different result, but now even if he wants to get in touch with him, he is blocked by Cao Cao, he can't get close, and he can't effectively cooperate with Chen Gong, how can this battle be fought?

Zhao Yun returned to the pine tree after sending off the messenger, sat on the ground with the two generals, took out the map, lit it with torches, and discussed countermeasures, for two hours, the three of them did not say a word, and a few steps away, the soldiers looked at each other, and they were a little overwhelmed by the reaction of the three people.

"General, do you want us to send someone to contact Chen Gong Junshi, regardless of success or failure, first of all, let him know about our existence, even if the two of us work together to get in touch, as long as we can succeed, maybe we can't think of a way, but what kind of trick does Chen Gong Junshi have, now our main task is to protect Pei County, that is, to cooperate with Chen Gong, if he knows about our existence, there will be a way, this is better than we don't have a clue, right?"

"That's a good idea!"

Zhao Yun had no clue, so he had to follow Gao Xiang's advice and protect Pei County, who had the most right to speak, naturally it was Chen Gong, he knew best what Pei County needed now, and they could completely become Chen Gong's invisible big hand, giving Pei County the most beneficial help in the periphery and relieving them of pressure.

Okay, you will send someone to Pei County to find an opportunity to get in touch with Chen Gongjun.

"No."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zhang Fei was furious when the bandits escaped, but one thing to be thankful for was that they fled south, which was the direction to Qianxi, and they could be caught as long as they returned the same way.

However, Zhang Fei has been with Liu Lan for so many years, and he has experienced a lot of big and small battles, of course he can't understand what the bandits are doing when they suddenly run back, such a strange move, Zhang Fei naturally didn't dare to chase after him rashly, but sent scouts to find out the news and see what these bandits were going to do.

Zhang Fei's caution brought him good luck, if he really went south to Qianxi, he would not only encounter the bandit army, but also the Guantong, and at that time his more than 10,000 people would be surrounded by enemy troops.

I have to say that Zhang Fei of Neixiu is really not something that anyone can deal with if he wants to, the key is that he is not reckless and impulsive, which is equivalent to not giving the opponent any chance, if it is that reckless Zhang Fei, he has countless weaknesses that can be broken, but now Zhang Fei, it is really not easy to defeat him.

"Everyone returns to Yi'an." Zhang Fei did not continue the pursuit, but led the troops directly back to Yi'an, he would not take the risk of meeting with Guan Tong to exterminate Hou Qian, this risk was too great, but he also would not let Hou Qian fall into the hands of Guan Tong, so he now has to be used as a bait again to attract Guan Tong.

This is a risky decision, first of all, once Guan Tong and Hou Qian meet, it is likely that they will know their existence, so his decision is very dangerous, but a gambler like Zhang Fei is born to love to gamble, especially his own luck, he does not believe that Hou Qian will take the initiative to surrender to Guan Tong, but will do some small actions to lure Guan Tong to Yi'an.

So Zhang Fei has to do some small actions to cooperate with Hou Qian's performance, and as long as Guan Tong dares to chase after him, at that time, he has already arrived in Jimo, but it is impossible for Hou Qian Zhang Fei to let him run away like this, before entering Donglai and confronting Guan Tong, he must first solve Hou Qian.

So he sent a strange army to return to Yi'an at the same time, avoiding the official road, following the direction of Houqian's escape, as long as Guan Tong left Qianqian and came to Yi'an, then Houqian would have no value, and they would be eliminated directly, and then they would be bandits, and they could enter Donglai openly.

Zhang Fei's plan thinks it is seamless, but as he himself said, there is no seamless plan, but this seemingly perfect plan has many drawbacks and loopholes, even if there is a problem in one of them, it will expose all the truth, but for Zhang Fei and several people under his account, he really can't think of a perfect plan to replace Zhang Fei's gambling decision this time.

So this time, although it was risky, no one objected.
