Chapter 231
You Beiping, Tuyin City, Gongsun Zan's Youzhou Governor's Mansion.

"What? Yuyang was lost? Zou Dan was killed in battle? This Zou Dan is really a waste, how many days have passed, and he lost Yuyang!" After hearing the news, Gongsun Zan was furious, and said through gritted teeth: " Pass on the order, and the soldiers of the three armies are ready to go at any time. Hmph, now 10 cavalry from Liaodong have arrived at Tuyin City, and there are [-] cavalry from Xianbei from Liaoxi outside, plus the tens of thousands of troops under my command. There are [-] people, I don't believe that this [-] army can't take down a small Yuyang City!"

Then Gongsun Zan ordered his son to hold his letter in person and prepare a generous gift to see Gongsun Kang, the son of Gongsundu in Liaodong. The leader, Murong Yu, asked them to send troops to fight against Liu He together, and promised that as long as Liu He was defeated and Youzhou was captured, Youbeiping County would be ceded to Xianbei in western Liaoning. Lang Er County also gave Gongsun Du [-] grains, [-] horses, [-] catties of gold, and [-] cloth.

"As the saying goes, your lips are dead and your teeth are cold, your lips and your teeth are dependent on each other." If your army refuses to help, it is estimated that after Zan is destroyed, the next step will be your army's turn to be invaded by Liu He. Now that we are in a group, we may still have the possibility of victory , but once Zan perishes, the same ending awaits you.

On the one hand, Murong Yu and Gongsun Du received Gongsun Zan's benefits and promises, and on the other hand, they really felt the threat from Liu He, so they immediately agreed to send troops to help fight. Three days later, the three parties gathered a total of 9 troops and went to Tuyin together. Under the city, at the same time, Murong Yu and Gongsun Du also said that Gongsun Zan would lead the way, and the three armies of [-] people were like one. They swore to set off on the second day and arrived at Yuyang City within a few days, surrounding Yuyang City like an iron barrel , and ordered people to attack day and night, hoping to capture Yuyang before Liu and the main force arrived.

But sadly, they met Hao Zhao who was the best at defending the city under Liu He's account!
In fact, Liu He had thought of such a possibility a long time ago, so he told Xu Huang before he led the army to attack Yuyang. I don't believe that a young general can defend Yuyang City well, but when Hao Zhao really took over the defense of Yuyang City, Xu Huang discovered that Hao Zhao's defensive ability is far beyond what he imagined. It was so impeccable that the enemy's attack power seemed to have weakened a lot. In just three days, Gongsun Zan had used various methods such as storming, digging tunnels, and setting fire to try to break through the city, but the city wall of Yuyang was like It was made of iron, and it still stood still, but caused five or six thousand casualties to the enemy.

Among the five or six thousand casualties, the Murong tribe in western Liaoning had the most, because the Murong tribe had been promised to cede Yuyang County to them in the future, so naturally they would first establish their prestige in their future territory, but I didn't expect In just three days, their army lost nearly 3000 people, which frustrated their spirit, and their siege was not as active as before.

"How is this possible? Our army has a total of 9 people. Even if everyone concentrates on pushing together, we can still bring down this city, right? But after three days of besieging the city, we still haven't climbed to the top of Yuyang city. It's unbelievable." Murong Yu was most anxious when he saw the heavy damage to his soldiers, and complained to Gongsun Zan with an expression of disbelief.

Gongsun Zan also had a wry smile on his face, and then said: "Now you all know how terrifying this Liu He is, right? Zan said before that Liu He and Xiaoer are not as useless as his father Liu Yu. This little thief is hunting for talents everywhere. , as if possessing a strange ability, in less than two years, he started from scratch and forcibly created a huge foundation. He and most of Youzhou have become the most powerful princes. How powerful was the Black Mountain Army back then? But after being attacked by him for less than half a year, they were disabled. In the end, we had no choice but to surrender. We don’t want You can take it lightly if you think that your own army is strong, if you are not careful, you may be able to capsize in the gutter and put yourself in a situation where there is no redemption."

"Brother Bogui is right, but now the thieves are defending, and our [-] army has fought hard for three days without occupying a corner. With such progress, it is estimated that even if Liu He's army arrives, we will not be able to break through Yuyang City. I wonder if my brother has a plan to defeat the enemy?" Although Gongsun Kang is young, after all, when Gongsun Zan is begging for help, he sees that the other party has the most soldiers, and because he has the same surname as him , So he called Gongsun Kang his brother, and Gongsun Kang believed that he had many soldiers and generals, so he naturally did his part, so he called Gongsun Zan his elder brother.

Gongsun Zan suppressed the nausea in his heart, and smiled at Gongsun Kang: "My dear brother, this matter is actually very simple. Since Yuyang City cannot be captured, then we will not attack it. Let's also learn from Liu and this little thief." , set up an ambush not far outside the city, and when Liu and his army arrive, we will crush Liu and the little thief with [-] cavalry. As long as Liu and the main army are defeated, the Yuyang defenders will have no hope. At that time, the thief will take the initiative to surrender."

"Brother's idea is good, but from my point of view, we don't need any ambushes at all, we just need to fight Liu He's face-to-face and we can easily crush him. Our army defeated Liu He head-on, how gratifying is this? In the future, we will become famous in the world through this battle and deter the princes. The little brother is fine, but the elder brother can completely dominate the Central Plains with this huge prestige, and it is not impossible to even pacify the world."

"But it's still relatively safe to ambush. After all, in this way, we can severely damage the enemy at a small price..."

"Hey, let me tell you, my brother is still a bit conservative. Together, we have an army of 5. How many troops can Liu He have? At most [-], right? If we fight with such a force, it's fine if we can't capture Liu He alive." There is no complete victory, as for the defeat, let me tell you, is there such a possibility?"

"Well, what you said, brother Xian, does make sense. In that case, it has been decided. Our army will first set up a formation by the Baoqiu River. When Liu He's army arrives, we will immediately launch a general attack. This battle will be certain. We want to capture Liu He and improve the morale of our army!" Although Gongsun Zan was a little reluctant, after all, Gongsun Kang controlled the main force of the coalition. If he didn't even sell this face, once he angered this boy, this boy would If he raised his troops and left regardless of the overall situation, he would have great fun, so he had no choice but to agree to Gongsun Kang's proposal and lead his army to a decisive battle with Liu He.
