Chapter 1078: Winter Fights Again

Yuan Shao recruited troops in Yecheng, but at the same time, Cao's army was gradually encroaching on the cities around Yecheng.

Almost every day, Yuan Shao would get urgent battle reports from the surrounding cities, but in just ten days, a city fell.

Yuan Shao, who was in a slightly better mood because of the reconciliation between discipline and trial, was suddenly full of anger and panic when he got this round of urgent battle reports.

In the battle of Guandu, there were 300,000 troops, and only 800 people followed him back to Yecheng.

Tens of thousands of soldiers were captured by the Cao army, and then all of them were slaughtered by the Cao army, and Hebei's combat strength was not as good as before.

In Yecheng, there are only a few thousand soldiers who can fight, and the rest are newly recruited soldiers.

The recruits had not been trained, and even the battle formations were not neatly arranged, so how could such a team start a decisive battle with Cao Cao.

was resentful in his heart, but Yuan Shao also knew that if Cao Jun was allowed to attack the city, it would not be long before Yecheng would become a lonely city.

Sitting on the bunk in the house, after listening to the guards present to him about the loss of the city, Yuan Shao waved his hand at the guards and said, "Go and invite Zhengnan and Yuantu!" ”

The guard answered, and turned to leave.

At the moment when the guards just went out, Yuan Shao only felt a tightness in his chest, and a mouthful of blood spurted out with a "poof".

The maids who were waiting in the house saw Yuan Shao vomiting blood, and they immediately made a mess, and two maids even wanted to run out to talk to a few ladies!

"Stop!" Before the two maids who were about to run out of the house arrived at the door, Yuan Shao shouted to everyone in the house.

Hearing his shout, all the maids in the room stopped and bowed to him one by one, each with an unconcealable panic on their faces.

The maids are different from the guards, and their duty is to take care of Yuan Shao's daily life.

Whether the city is lost or not has nothing to do with them.

But Yuan Shao was in a hurry and vomited blood, which was a big deal for them.

"Clean up, don't tell anyone!" Looking around at the flustered maids in the house, Yuan Shao said to them: "If anyone dares to tell this story, they will be beaten to death!" ”

Yuan Shao's words made the maids in the house shudder, and they all responded, and several of them hurriedly stepped forward to clean up the pool of blood he vomited.

The maids had just cleaned up, and they came outside the house after being summoned by Yuan Shao and Feng Ji.

Seeing a maid walking out with a basin of water, the judge asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

If it was on weekdays, she was stopped by the trial and asked, and the maid didn't dare not answer, but the maid who got Yuan Shao's strict order, after being stopped by the trial, just blessed him and left with the basin.

What a person to judge and meet!

From the maid's expression, they could already see that Yuan Shao must be a little inappropriate, and they hurriedly entered the house.

Spit out blood, Yuan Shao felt tired all over, and when the two entered the house, he was already asleep again.

Seeing that Yuan Shao was asleep, the judge and Feng Ji glanced at each other, Feng Ji stepped forward, hugged his fists and bowed down and called softly: "Yuan Gong......"

Yuan Shao, who was sleeping, did not hear Feng Ji's soft call, his eyes were closed, and his snort was very even.

Glancing back at the judge, Feng Ji's face showed a touch of helplessness.

He and Feng Ji looked at each other for a while, and the judge also strode to Yuan Shao's bed, and his voice was slightly louder than Feng Ji's and called: "Yuan Gong......"

At this moment, Yuan Shao heard his call, and sat up with his eyes suddenly open.

When he sat up, Yuan Shao's expression still showed panic that could not be concealed.

Turning his head to look to the side, he saw that it was Juan Pei and Feng Ji standing beside him, so he took a deep breath, as if a stone in his heart had fallen to the ground, waved his hand at the two and said, "Sit down and talk!" ”

Yuan Shao's spirit was sluggish, and both the trial and Feng Ji had already seen that he must be very depressed in his heart.

Although the two of them saw that Yuan Shao was depressed in his heart, they didn't make it clear, they just thanked him and sat down in the house.

"Cao Jun seized Pingyang, do you two know?" When the two sat down, Yuan Shao turned his head to look at them, and asked in a very light tone.

His tone was very light, but the judge and Feng Ji could still hear from it that Yuan Shao was very concerned about this matter.

After all, Pingyang is east of Yecheng, and if Cao's army occupies Pingyang, it can rely on Pingyang and attack Yecheng at any time.

Yuan Shao's tone was flat, but it was just the calmness he had necessary to be a hero.

No matter how anxious he is in his heart, in front of his staff and generals, he will not show that he is busy.

The Lord's family is already in chaos, let alone those who follow him.

When Yuan Shao asked about the trial and Feng Jike knowing that Pingyang had been captured by Cao Jun, the two glanced at each other, and Feng Jicai hugged his fists and said to him: "The two of us also know!" ”

"Defeat is like a mountain!" Raising his face to look at the beams of the house, Yuan Shao's face showed a sense of loss, and he said leisurely: "Cao Jun occupies Pingyang, what should I do?" ”

Yuan Shao didn't hide his feelings in the slightest, and when Feng Ji and the judge heard it, he also felt that there was a bad feeling in his heart.

Before the Battle of Guandu, the two of them were instigating Yuan Shao to start a war against Cao's army.

In the course of the war, he did not offer Yuan Shao too effective a strategy, so that Yuan's army was defeated and Hebei's vitality was greatly damaged.

Yuan Shao was still looking up at the beams of the house, Feng Ji stood up, clasped his fists and bowed down and said: "Yuan Gong is not in a hurry, it's just Pingyang, our army should be able to take it back!" ”

"How to recapture it?" Turning his head to look at Feng Ji, Yuan Shao sighed lightly and said: "Our army is insufficient, the newly recruited soldiers and horses lack training, and the soldiers have not passed through the battle formation, even if there are a lot of people, how can they be the opponents of the Cao army?" ”

Being asked by Yuan Shao like this, Feng Ji was stunned for a moment, and bowed without saying a word.

Seeing that Feng Ji was asked, the interrogator on the side hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Gong, Cao Cao's army has captured Pingyang, if our army fights with it, I am afraid that it may not be able to get benefits." However, what if Yuan Gong abandoned Pingyang and other places, and the army went out of the city and rushed to Xudu through Chenliu all the way? ”

Hearing this sentence, Yuan Shao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked him, "What is the solution to Zhengnan's plan?" ”

"The main force of the Cao army is on the border of my Hebei, and our army will make a detour, leaving some soldiers and horses to defend Yecheng!" Holding his fists and bowing, the judge said to Yuan Shao: "The army went all the way south, crossed the Yellow River, first captured Chenliu, took Chenliu as the foundation, and then tried to make Xudu." In a few months, Cao Cao can be broken! ”

Since the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao has been depressed, although a few days ago due to the trial and reconciliation of Fengji, his mood has eased, but every time he thinks of the defeat in Guandu, he is still inevitably depressed.

The loss of Pingyang made Yuan Shao feel that the Yuan family had reached the end of the road.

can be judged, it is like when he was at his worst, he suddenly gave him a medicine that can make people feel a hundred times more energetic.

Looking at the trial, Yuan Shao beckoned to him and said, "Come from the south, tell me how to send troops and how to capture Chen Liu?" ”

Standing up, he first bowed to Yuan Shao with a fist and bowed deeply, and then walked to a place only three or four steps away from him, and said again: "Yuan Gong, as the saying goes, autumn guards the spring war, and now our army is a newly recruited soldier and horse, if it is a decisive battle with Cao Cao according to common sense, it will definitely not be Cao Cao's opponent." Since it is a new soldier, our army should win with surprise soldiers! ”

"Does due south mean a winter war?" Yuan Shao is also a hero who has led the army for many years, and as soon as the interrogation words came out, he knew what it meant, looked up at the interrogator and asked.

Putting down his hands, the judge nodded and said, "The winter is bitterly cold, and the defenders everywhere are also negligent. If our army suddenly attacked, I thought that the Chen Liu's garrison had not yet understood what was happening, and Chen Liu had already fallen into the hands of our army. As long as Chen Liu is captured, the soldiers of our army are the warriors who have fought on the battlefield, and Chen Liu is the foundation, and there is no suspense when entering Xudu! ”

Frowning slightly and thinking for a moment, Yuan Shao did not respond, but turned his head to look at Feng Ji and asked, "What does Yuan Tu mean?" ”

Since the exoneration of the trial, the estrangement between Fengji and the trial has long been eliminated, and the two of them are like one person all day long, and the good relationship is that many of Yuan Shao's staff and generals are envious.

Before Pingyang was captured, the strategy proposed by the trial was discussed with Feng Ji.

Feng Ji also felt that this strategy was feasible, but the strategy was thought up by the judges, and when Yuan Shao asked them questions, he didn't mention it first.

When Yuan Shao turned his head to look at him, Feng Ji hurriedly stood up, hugged his fists and said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Gong, what Zhengnan said coincides with what he thinks in his heart!" ”

Hearing Feng Ji's words, the corners of Yuan Shao's mouth tugged, revealing a playful smile.

Feng Ji and the trial match used to face Mai Mang, whenever the two of them have a plan, the other party will always dismantle the stage, but now, the trial and match put forward a plan, Feng Ji not only will not say the omission in the strategy, but blindly agree, let Yuan Shao say to them, it is somewhat difficult to consider.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Shao waved his hand to Feng Ji and the trial match and said, "You two go together, gather everyone, a little later, I will be equal to the front hall discussion!" ”

"No!" Knowing that Yuan Shao was unwilling to make a decision lightly, Xuan Pei and Feng Ji both responded with fists and exited his room.

After the two of them left Yuan Shao's room, Yuan Shao in the room stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked to the window, looked at the scenery of the back garden outside the window, and sighed softly.

In the first battle of Guandu, Yuan's army was defeated too badly.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were lost one after another, although they were separated from the battlefield alive, they had already served the King of Qin.

As for Zhang He, he simply took refuge under Cao Cao and officially broke with him.

At that time, the four court pillars of Hebei, the four courts now only have one Gao Ran left, and the first pillar, compared with the four courts, is much weaker, once the same Zhang He encountered on the battlefield, it is impossible to be Zhang He's opponent.

Bing is a newly recruited soldier, a former fierce general, and he also went to Nine Pavilions from Ten Pavilions.

Fighting with Cao Cao again, Yuan Shao has lost the pride he had before Guandu!
