The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 54 Peel off his skin!

Yuan Shao retreated all the way for [-] miles before he stopped and gathered the defeated troops. First he won a big victory, then he was in chaos, and then he was defeated. Yuan Shao's mood fluctuated greatly, and he almost died of anger. Although he beheaded General Yan Gang of Gongsun Zan and defeated Bai Mayi From then on, but I still killed Admiral Ju Yi, and the casualties were heavy!
"Damn, extremely hateful! Damn Liu Xiao, so cunning, I will never die with him!"

Yuan Shao was so angry that he yelled and cursed, his heart ached, he finally got Jizhou, and the strength of his subordinates expanded rapidly. It was the time when he showed his talents, but he didn't expect Liu Xiao to make a move out of thin air, it's really hateful!

"My lord, there is no need to be like this. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military strategists. It is only a defeat. If you make a comeback, you may not be able to achieve all your achievements!"

Counselor Tian Feng said in a low voice.

Yuan Shao said in a muffled voice: "Yuan Hao doesn't know, I'm not resentful because of the defeat of the army, but because of Liu Xiao's treachery and reneging on promises. If you want to make a comeback, it will be difficult to win..."

Tian Feng replied: "My lord, although our army was defeated, our army was not injured, and we still have the strength to fight; although Gongsun won, he suffered heavy losses. Without the righteous follower of the white horse, Gongsun Zan would have lost an arm. Liu Xiao and Liu Bei It's just a case of ringworm, it's nothing to worry about, this defeat was due to haste and our army didn't take precautions, if we fight again, we just need to step by step and advance slowly with an upright and upright army, Gongsun Zan will definitely lose!"

Yuan Shao nodded slightly, and ordered Yan Liangwenchou to go down to rectify the troops and prepare for another battle.

Two days later, Yuan Shao was in the commander's tent discussing the matter of the war with the generals, when Gao Lan hurried in.

Gao Lan bowed and said: "My lord, just now the scouts have found out the exact news. Liu Bei has led the main force to set off and is preparing to return to the plain station; at the same time, because of the emperor's order, Liu Xiao is leading the main force to go to Qingzhou to take up his post. Let's start today!"

Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows and asked anxiously: "Gao Lan, is this serious?"

Gao Lan said in a deep voice: "My lord, there is no doubt that Liu Bei's troops have already set off, and Liu Xiao's army has also been reorganized and is about to set off!"

Tian Feng smiled and said, "My lord, now that Liu Bei and Liu Xiao are all gone, Gongsun Zan can't support him alone, our army will definitely win! God should let the lord take Youzhou and achieve great things!"

Yuan Shao was overjoyed, and laughed loudly: "Mr. Yuan Hao, with your good words, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, step up to rectify the troops and prepare to fight again; Gao Lan, order Tan Ma to closely monitor the movement of Gongsun Zan's army, and report back immediately if he makes any move!"

When the news came again, Yuan Shao was finally relieved. Liu Bei had gone far away, and Liu Xiao had already headed southeast to Qingzhou. Only Gongsun Zan was left. Gongsun Zan did not withdraw his army to the north, but started moving westward. , the goal is obvious, this is going to Anping County!

"Hmph, Gongsun Zan is so brave. Without help, he still dares to stay in Jizhou, and even wants to attack Anping County. He is really looking for death!"

Yuan Shao yelled: "Here's the order, the army will move out, move towards Anping County, rush to help Anping, and prepare for a decisive battle with Gongsun Zan!"''

Yuan Shao led his own army to chase Gongsun Zan from behind, all the way to the vicinity of Anping.

However, Gongsun Zan just launched two sieges in Anping, then gave up the attack and retreated to the north, never giving Yuan Shao a chance for a decisive battle.

Seeing Gongsun Zan's retreat, Yuan Shao still refused to let Gongsun Zan go, and chased after him all the way. He wanted to keep Gongsun Zan's main force in Jizhou completely, so as to avoid future troubles. From Jieqiao to Anping, he pursued all the way to Boling and Gaoyang. After chasing for hundreds of miles!
Finally, Gongsun Zan stopped running, stopped, and stationed troops on the border of Boling, ready to fight Yuan Shao. However, Gongsun Zan did not take the initiative to attack, and the defense was tight. Yuan Shao led the army and attacked twice in succession, but was defeated by Gongsun Zan's army. Repulsed, the two sides fell into a stalemate again.

In the southeast direction, Liu Xiao marched all the way towards the border of Qingzhou. After a few days, the army changed direction and began to march towards Bohai County, pointing directly at Bohai County!
The high-ranking cadres who stayed behind in Bohai County got the news and were frightened out of their wits. Liu Xiao led the army to attack Bohai County?My lord, now the lord has transferred all the main forces under his command to the Jieqiao area to fight Gongsun Zan. There are only more than a thousand troops in the city. How can Liu Xiao's opponent be?

Gao Gan did not dare to be negligent, and sent cavalry to Yuan Shao's place to ask for help. He asked Yuan Shao to withdraw his troops urgently and return to Bohai County.

When Yuan Shao got the news, he was stunned. What is this Liu Xiao going to do?I just made some dirty things with you for passing on the jade seal of the country, but I didn't do anything to you, did I?The one who attacked you was Yuan Shu, and the one who forced your wife to death was also Yuan Shu. Instead of making trouble for Yuan Shu, you came here to make trouble for me again and again. You are too deceitful!

"My lord, Bohai County is where we are based. We cannot afford to lose anything. We must immediately return to the army to help. Otherwise, once the city of Bohai County falls, the army will be in chaos. Even if it is a decisive battle with Gongsun Zan, we will have no chance of winning!"

Xin Ping said anxiously.

Yuan Shao hesitated and said, "It's just that if we withdraw our troops, what will happen to Gongsun Zan? If he leads his cavalry in pursuit, we will suffer a lot..."

Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "It's okay, my lord, we just need to leave General Yan Liang in ambush to the left and right. If Gongsun Zan dares to pursue him, he will definitely be defeated by General Yan. And now that Gongsun Zan has repeatedly fought and retreated, I'm afraid there will be no more battles." I have the courage, I dare not easily pursue!"

"What are you waiting for?"

Yuan Shao yelled: "The order, the army will set out immediately and return to help Bohai County. Damn Liu Xiao, one day, sooner or later, I will kill you!"

Yuan Shao turned around and rushed down towards Bohai County with an army of tens of thousands. From the vicinity of Boling to Bohai County, it was only five or six hundred miles away. Marching with all his strength, it took only seven or eight days to reach Bohai County.

Yuan Shao rushed forward all the way, and after a few days, he had already arrived near the mouth of the Zhanghe River, only a hundred miles away from Bohai County.

Yuan Shao was anxious and rushed all the way, marching more than 400 li in seven days, but he didn't know that on the other side of the mouth of the Zhang River, Liu Xiao had already set up a net, waiting for Yuan Shao to come.

Yuan Shao didn't notice it, and when he arrived at the Zhang River, he didn't stop, and commanded the army to cross the Zhang River!

On the other side of the Zhang River, Liu Xiao and Yue Fei watched from a distance, and all the Jizhou Army on the other side of the Zhang River were in sight!

"Pengju, they're here!"

Liu Xiao said softly.

Yue Fei said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my lord, Yue Fei has already prepared to stop. Two thousand infantrymen are lying in ambush on both sides with bows and arrows, and two thousand cavalrymen can launch an assault at any time. In this battle, even if Yuan Shao is able to escape, he must be defeated." Layers of skin!"
