Zhao Yu led the envoy group to Taishan County in the starry night, crying about how Yuan Shujun was brutal, and begging Liu Bei to send troops to rescue Taishan County, and everyone cried when he heard it.

Liu Beiyan said: "I have heard that Yuan Shujun has done all kinds of evil in killing, burning, looting, and plundering, and I thought that Yuan Shu was the son of the Yuan family before, and I also fought hard when I was fighting against Dong, so as not to harm the people, I thought that the villain was deliberately slandered, but I never thought that Yuan Jun would really lose his conscience so much!" ”

Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei decisively sent troops, with Guan Yu as the general, and led 100,000 pioneers to support Tao Qian quickly, and then Liu Bei himself did his best to raise the elite army under his command, played the banner of aiding Xu, and went south to Xuzhou.

With Liu Bei joining, the disputes in the world immediately became fierce.

In the north, Shang Ji fought endlessly with Gongsun Zhan, Qingzhou Army (Guan Hai), and Kong Rong, and the intensity of the tripartite war between Lu Bu, Diao Chan, and Cao Cao suddenly increased; In the south, Tao Qian, Yuan Shu, and Liu Bei are also constantly fighting.

The only place in the Central Plains that can be said to be relatively quiet is Jizhou!

Yuan Shao wanted to go north to Youzhou immediately and partner with Gongsun Zhan against Shangji, but the actual conditions did not allow it at all.

Han Fu has been operating in Jizhou for a long time, and there are many hardcore henchmen, Yuan Shao is mainly anti-customer with the trend of whale swallowing, and he has entered Jizhou, and there are too many things that need to be sorted out internally.

Without a stable internal environment, rashly sending troops to Youzhou is a typical behavior of sending people to the head.

Also, don't forget that there is also Zhang Yan's Montenegrin Army in Jizhou.

Don't think that they are all the way just because Yuan Shao is on the table that Zhang Yan is a general in peace, on the contrary, it is Yuan Shao who wants Zhang Yan's life the most now!

The previous alliance was because of the common enemy of Han Fu, so Yuan Shao spared no effort to support Zhang Yan. Now that Yuan Shao has entered Jizhou, after the role is reversed, Zhang Yan immediately became Yuan Shao's confidant.

At the same time, the issue of koji also needs to be handled carefully.

Yuan Shao very much wanted to take Lu Yi under his command, after all, Lu Yi's ability was obvious to all, no worse than any of the generals under Yuan Shao's command.

But Lu Yi's unruly personality and the lessons of history made him unwilling to surrender, which gave Yuan Shao quite a headache.

Regardless of the world's strife and Yuan Shao, we continue to focus on the Youzhou battlefield.

After Shang Ji transferred two additional legions of Gao Xiang and Zhao Shen to Zhang He, the mobile forces in Zhang He's hands increased greatly, leaving two legions to garrison the border to guard against Yuan Shao, and the rest went out to attack everywhere and constantly exterminate the bandits that were frantically bred because of the war.

With Zhang He personally in charge and hundreds of thousands of elite troops, the situation in Zhuo County and Dai County improved at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

Then he killed a few small local warlords who took advantage of the chaos to stand on their own, and the rest of the forces in the territory were all defeated.

Relying on an elite combat regiment under his command, Zhang He forcibly completed the reorganization of the local armed forces in Dai and Zhuo counties in the way of righteousness + force + gold coins.

Cut the weak and retain the strong, and finally reorganized more than 600,000 troops of the fifth order and above.

Zhang He took the original combat corps as the core, supplemented by the 600,000 troops that had been reorganized, and nearly one million troops directly killed Shanggu County.

Before the defeat of Tian Kai's army, the mobile army that Gongsun Zan could mobilize in Guangyang, Yuyang and other places was wiped out, and Guo Biao was rampant in Guangyang County.

At the same time that Zhang He attacked Shanggu County, the bloodthirsty Tiger Ben army led by Guo Biao also successfully forced down the military capital of Guangyang County. So far, Guangyang County only has three cities: Jixian, Guangyang, and Changping.

The three cities were able to hold on, relying on the benefits of the city wall, Guo Biao lacked the necessary siege equipment in his hands, and it was difficult to pose a substantial threat to such a giant city and the royal city, so the three cities survived.

However, with the fall of all the boundaries outside the three cities, the three cities are also in a desperate situation, rebellions in the cities have broken out one after another, and there is also a shortage of food, like a flat boat in a raging storm, which may capsize at any time.

However, Guo Biao's eyes were no longer on them.

If you want to conquer these three cities head-on, especially Jicheng, which is the royal city, you must dispatch the Arsenal and bomb indiscriminately, Guo Biao obviously does not have this condition at this time.

If military means do not work, then only political means can be used.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as Gongsun Chan is solved, then these three cities will definitely surrender without a fight.

Therefore, Guo Biao only left a small number of troops to contain the defenders of the three cities, and the remaining main army marched eastward, and the troops were directed at Yuyang County.

And Guo Biao's eastward expansion made the already miserable Gongsun Chan even worse.

Gongsun Chan dared to say that he had never fought such a battle in his life!

Originally, I heard that it was Zhao Zilong, a silver dragon known as the Six Dragons of Pingzhou, who led the troops this time, and Gongsun Zan was still a little uneasy in his heart. In the battle against Dong, Gongsun Chan paid attention to the whole process, Zhao Yun's performance was seen by him one by one, and against such a general, Gongsun Chan unconsciously felt a little weak.

However, after the real war, Gongsun Chan would rather replace his opponent with Lu Bu!

At this time, the battle situation was like this, Zhao Yun led three battle legions and part of the elite army stationed in Lulong Fortress, a total of one million troops, and slaughtered the right Beiping County with great momentum.

Gongsun Zhan fought against Zhao Yun, lost three battles and three defeats in the field, suffered heavy losses, retreated to the mound, and tried to consume Zhao Yun's army with geographical advantages, and then forced Shang Ji to retreat.

According to Gongsun Zhan's understanding, if you want to conquer a well-defended giant city-level city like Tuyin, you have to fill it with 1.8 million people, and Zhao Yun's entire army is only one million!

However, Gongsun Chan ignored one point - the Shang army never relied on human lives to attack the city!

With a wave of Zhao Yun's hand, a full hundred city-breaking dragon cannons and five hundred power-enhanced burst torch stone carts fired at the same time, and the thunderous roar could be heard hundreds of miles away.

In just one day, a section of the eastern wall of the city showed a tendency to collapse.

Faced with the foul-like attack method, Gongsun Chan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

That night, Gongsun Chan personally led the elite to attack the camp, trying to destroy the heavy siege equipment that was so powerful during the day. However, Gongsun Chan's little trick could not hide from Guo Jia's eyes, and at Guo Jia's suggestion, Zhao Yun set up an ambush and annihilated Gongsun Zhan's elite raid troops in one fell swoop, and Gongsun Chan was only spared.

In order to cover Gongsun Zhan's retreat, Tian Yu, the general of Gongsun Zhan's army, took the initiative to stay behind and was captured by Zhao Yunsheng.

In the face of the menacing Zhao Yunjun, Gongsun Chan left Aluopan, Wang Tong, and Wang Ji to guard the boundless city, and he led the elite main force to withdraw overnight.

A Luopan, Wang Tong, and Wang Ji are all the old departments of Wuhuan, but they are the tribal leaders who defected to Gongsun Zhan after Wuhuan was destroyed by Shang Ji, and they were extremely afraid of the Shang Ji army, and this time they were abandoned by Gongsun Zhan as a pawn in the Boundless City, of course, they will not be stubborn anymore.

After Gongsun Zhan broke away from the boundless city, the three of them discussed a little and decisively surrendered the city.
