After making sufficient pre-war preparations, Yuan Shaojun finally had a showdown.

Yuan Shao asked his second son Yuan Xi to lead 50,000 Youzhou troops to the border of Liaodong to prevent the Liaodong Yellow Turban Army from mischievous, and Yuan Shao personally led the army, under the banner of "avenging Kong Rong", and the troops entered Qingzhou in three ways, and the 200,000 army was mighty and powerful, and there was a great tendency to cover the sky and the sun.

It is not difficult to see that Yuan Shao is ready to finish his work in one battle and take Qingzhou in one fell swoop!

Today's Yuan Shao has just grasped two development opportunities, and it is no longer the weather of the past.

The first opportunity is to get almost the entire Youzhou.

Support Liu He to destroy Gongsun Zhan, and after Liu He's death, the Youzhou army that followed him was in his pocket, although he fought with the Liaodong Yellow Turban in a fierce fight, somewhat damaged, but it was not without benefits, the Liaodong Yellow Turban was disabled, and could only be entrenched in a corner of Liaodong, surviving for a long time, and was unable to pose a threat to Yuan Shao in a short period of time. Objectively speaking, it was precisely because of the great battle with the Liaodong Army that Yuan Shao's control of Youzhou was accelerated, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

The second opportunity is to merge states.

There was no resistance at all to take the state, and it was decided that the soldiers would not be bloody. The Bingzhou soldiers shouldered the mission of guarding the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty, and they were elite soldiers who had seen blood on the battlefield, as well as a certain number of cavalry troops. The problem of merging states is that there is not enough products, and other states and counties need to receive money and grain, and Yuan Shao has Jizhou, which is rich in money and grain, as the backing, and it is not a problem to support the merger of states.

Three states are in hand, and 200,000 troops are dispatched, which seems to be not much, but it is not.

You must know that there are rules to transfer the troops of the famous city to attack, and the player can only transfer 10% of the troops when he occupies the famous city, and the situation of the princes is slightly better, but it can only be transferred by 20%. Yuan Shao sent 200,000 troops this time to seek Qingzhou. Counting Yuan Xi's Youzhou Army, it means. Yuan Shao's total strength is more than one million! Although such a large number of troops is inevitably suspected of being reckless. But it is also enough to prove Yuan Shao's strength.

Take a look at Yuan Shaojun's overall arrangement.

Youzhou, the second son Yuan Xi led an army of 50,000 to guard Youzhou to guard against Liaodong, Yuan Shao sent strategists Chen Lin and Xu Yu to assist, mainly the original Liu Yu's subordinates, including Xian Yufu, Qi Zhou, Xian Yuyin and others.

Qingzhou, Yuan Shaobing divided into three roads.

Left Route Army, the eldest son Yuan Tan led an army of 50,000 troops from Bohai County. Attack the Leling line. The Left Route Army had strategists Xin Ping and Guo Tu, and the main generals under the account were Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, Feng Li, Ma Yan and others.

The Right Route Army, led by Yuan Shao's favorite third son, Yuan Shang, also had 50,000 troops, recruited by Qinghe State, and attacked the Gaotang line. The right army has strategists and discipline, and the main generals under the account are Yan Liang, Mu Yuanjin, Han Juzi, Lu Weihuang and others.

In the Middle Route Army, Yuan Shaoqin led an army of 100,000 troops to march from Anpingguo. Attack the Plains. Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Chen Zhen staff officers, the main generals under the account are Wen Chou, Han Meng, Yin Kai, Chun Yuqiong, Zhang Yi, Su You and others.

Yuan Shao's nephew, Gao Gan, did not go to war, but sat in the rear and was responsible for the security of Bingzhou and Jizhou. and support the front line. Yuan Shao asked Xun Chen to partner with senior cadres, one to command the troops, and the other to manage the deployment of materials. Each performs its own duties, and Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan and others listen to the tune. They are responsible for the execution of specific tasks, such as escorting grain and grass, and supporting a certain army.

I have to admit it. The current Yuan Shao does have a large number of generals, and he is like the sky.

This is still Zhang Jaw, Gao Ran and Ju Yi have been dug into the corner......

In fact, Yuan Shao attacked Qingzhou with great fanfare this time, and he had other plans: that is, to investigate Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang to see who was more suitable to be his heir.

Yuan Shao had three sons: Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang.

Normally, the eldest son is the natural heir, and the saying that "the emperor loves the eldest son" has a long history, and it is also true for the family of princes. However, Yuan Tan has a somewhat irritable temper and doesn't like his father very much, and Yuan Shao is also beautiful because of Yuan Shang's beauty (this reason is really strange, it is estimated that it is related to Yuan Shao's fact that he is also a beautiful man), and his wife Liu loves Yuan Shang, and intends to set up Yuan Shang as the heir, but Yuan Shao also knows that "abolishing the long and standing young" has always been a taboo, and he has not officially stated his position.

Yuan Xi is the second son, his ranking is neither high nor low, and he is not as particularly pleasing to his parents as Yuan Shang, there is basically no chance, and Yuan Xi himself does not seem to have the heart to compete for the position. The shape shì is more obvious, if nothing else, Yuan Shao's heir will be selected from Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang

Yuan Shao can not express his position, but the people below can't be stable, so they have to choose a side.

After all, several sons are adults.

Yuan Tanyan's status as the eldest son brought him a huge advantage, and everyone was inclined to make him his heir. However, Yuan Tan is impatient and does things more directly, such as Feng Ji and the trial are proud and extravagant, Yuan Tan is very disgusted and shows it undisguisedly, Feng Ji and the trial are worried that Yuan Tan will not be good for him after he takes the throne, and he found that Yuan Shao likes Yuan Shang, so the two turned to support Yuan Shang. In addition, Yuan Tan was arrested in Qingzhou Market for molesting Zhao Xue a few years ago, which made Yuan's face disgraced, which was a big stain and was constantly attacked by Yuan Shang's faction......

In order to compete for the right to inherit, the two factions attacked each other and quarreled constantly, and Yuan Shao was also annoyed. simply took advantage of this opportunity to let the two sons each lead an army and speak with their achievements.

For Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, this war has a faint taste of the battle for succession!

The staffing of the left and right armies, Yuan Shao spent a lot of thought.

Each gave 50,000 soldiers and horses, responsible for the flank offensive, and the strategists accompanying the army were all supporters of Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, and they were bound to assist with all their hearts, and the number of generals sent was the same, it seemed that Yuan Shao wanted his two sons to compete fairly. But in fact, Yuan Shao still secretly helped Yuan Shang.

The right army has a fierce general Yan Liang......

As soon as Yuan Shaojun moved, Qingzhou Mansion immediately entered a state of war.

The six counties of Qingzhou: Pingyuan County, Jinan County, Le'an County, Qi County, Donglai County and Beihai County.

Qi State and Donglai County are Ah Niu's territory, and Liu Bei, the Qingzhou Thorn History, can actually mobilize only four counties: Pingyuan County, Jinan County, Le'an Country and Beihai Kingdom. Pingyuan County is the barrier to the west of Qingzhou, next to Jinan County and Le'an County to the east, and further east is Qi County and Donglai County, and Beihai County, where Qingzhou is located, is in the easternmost part.

Yuan Shao's three-way army marched east into Qingzhou, and the first thing to bear the brunt was Pingyuan County.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei went into battle, raised 60,000 troops, and resisted the enemy in the plains.

60,000 vs 200,000. Qingzhou Mansion is obviously at a disadvantage, but Qingzhou Mansion can't take any more.

In order to allow as many troops as possible on the front line to resist Yuan Shao's attack. The Qingzhou Mansion demanded a strong demand to occupy the player forces of the famous cities in the plains. It is necessary to ensure that the number of troops in the famous city is not less than 20,000, and unconditionally cooperate with the dispatch of the state capital. This is obviously to force the player forces to provide troops, which has attracted a lot of scolding from the players, but these are extraordinary times, and the princes have the right to make such demands. Even Qingzhou Mansion did not hesitate to recruit a full number of troops in the plain county town.

When war comes, no one is immune.

Qingzhou Mansion is heavily armed in the plains, and it is also a last resort.

If the plain is lost, Jinan and Le'an will be exposed to the iron hooves of Yuan Shaojun. At that time, there is only one Beihai country left as the rear, which is equivalent to the war potential of one county against three states, and the hope of Qingzhou Mansion to repel Yuan Shao will be very slim.

From the very beginning, Qingzhou Mansion had no more choice but to stick to the plain!

Guan Yu led 40,000 Qingzhou troops to meet Yuan Shao's main force.

The two armies met outside the castle of Tsugakuni.

In the first encounter, Guan Yu raised the Qinglong Yanyue Knife to fight.

Although Yuan Shao looked down on Liu Bei's three brothers, in the battle against Dong Zhuo that year, Guan Yu first beheaded Huaxiong with warm wine. Later, there were three heroes fighting against Lu Bu, and the sky was dark, and the sun and moon were dark, and Yuan Shao was still very jealous of Guan Yu's force. I wanted to fight directly in a group by relying on the strength of the crowd, but I was worried that refusing to fight alone would affect morale. was hesitating, but some people under the tent didn't take Guan Yu seriously, or dreamed of defeating Guan Yu to get the first credit. Take the initiative to ask to play.

Zhang Yi took the initiative to ask: "At the end of the year, Guan Yu's head will be taken!" ”

Yuan Shao was overjoyed and ordered Zhang Yi to fight.

Zhang Yi urged the horse. Wielding a halberd, he went straight to Guan Yu and shouted loudly. The sound was like thunder. Helplessly, Guan Yu was not frightened by his loud voice, and when the two horses were staggered, Elder Brother Yun fully carried forward the style of fast knife hand, and the knife fell with his hand, only one together, and the battle was resolved. Zhang Yi originally wanted to take Guan Yu's head, but instead sent his own head......

The morale of the Qingzhou army was shocked, and Yuan Shaojun was silent.

Zhang Yi's blood made Yuan Shaojun lose face, but it also ignited the bloodiness of some generals.

General Wen Chou shouted violently, raised his gun and slapped his horse to fight with Guan Yu, the two fought more than 20 times, Guan Yu's big knife became more and more aggressive, Wen Chou gradually lost his opponent, the left and right sides were very tight, Yuan Shao saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly let Han Meng and Chun Yuqiong shoulder to shoulder.

Yuan Shao would not let people beat Guan Yu openly, and let people shout: "How long will you fight alone?" On the one hand, there are a few more group fights, and everyone is good to bury the pot and cook after the fight early. ”

Liu Bei's two brothers can fight, and Guan Zhang and the two of them will lead the army to fight separately, so naturally no one can help Guan Yu share the burden, so Yuan Shaojun confidently fought three to one. Chun Yuqiong is the general under Yuan Shao's account, Han Meng is a famous fierce man under Yuan Shao's account, in the romance, Yuan Shao's general has "Hebei Four Courtyard Pillars and a Middle Beam", the four courtyard pillars are Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan, a middle beam is Han Meng, and the legend is that Han Meng has the courage of ten thousand people.

As the so-called double fist is difficult to defeat six hands, Guan Yu insisted on more than 40 combinations, and gradually lost the enemy.

Yuan Shao took advantage of the situation to wave his division to assault, the Qingzhou army was defeated, losing more than 5,000 people, and Guan Yu retreated to defend the plain. Due to the defeat of Guan Yu, the county seat of the country was surrounded, and the morale of the defenders was very low.

It was a certain lord player who occupied the county seat of the country, thinking that he was not obliged to do his best to prevent disasters for Liu Bei, and it was inconvenient for him to open the city and surrender, so he passively resisted. Under the onslaught of Yuan Shaojun, after the loss of the troops in the county seat of the country, there was no conscription to replenish, so the soldiers in the city became fewer and fewer, and the morale became more and more low......

Three days later, the country was captured, and the main force of Yuan Shao's army advanced to the plain!

Guan Yu lost the first battle, but Zhang Fei won a victory.

The Right Route Army crossed the river on the Gaotang line, but was attacked by Zhang Fei half-crossing, and the vanguard Yan Liang was defeated by Zhang Fei, and 10,000 forward troops were killed. Fortunately, the follow-up troops arrived in time, Zhang Fei retreated, Yan Liang was spared death, a spear was stabbed in his left arm, and more than 7,000 soldiers and horses were broken.

Yan Liang concluded afterwards that Qingzhou is not a good place! Because he was always defeated and wounded in Qingzhou.

Defeated by Zhao Xue, Yue Xi and Zhang Fei successively, his reputation was lost, and his courage was lost......

The two armies fought, Qingzhou Mansion and Yuan Shaojun each won one game, but Yuan Shaojun completely took the initiative, and even the defeated right army successfully crossed the river and advanced to Gaotang. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were alone, no longer taking the initiative to attack, but just stuck to Pingyuan and Gaotang respectively.

Yuan Tan's left army was undestructed, and reached the city of Leling along the way.
