Zhang He stood on the city wall, looking at Guan Yu's tent not far away, with a hint of sarcasm on his face.

From the corner of Guan Yu's tent that has been revealed, we can see that the soldiers are lined up in an orderly manner and their morale is high.

Zhang He pondered for a moment, took out a prepared order from his pocket, handed it to his subordinates, and ordered: "Pass this order quickly."

After his subordinates left, Zhang He muttered to himself.

"Two days, wait two more days, and everything will be settled."

……

……

Compared to Zhang He's calmness, Yan Liang was a little anxious. He led an army of 100,000 and garrisoned in Liyang, but during this period of time, he failed to defeat Huang Zhong on the south bank.

When Yan Liang first heard that Huang Zhong was leading 20,000 soldiers to resist, he almost laughed like a pig.

It was not known whether Emperor Liu Huangshu suddenly became confused or had no one available.

They actually sent such an unknown old soldier to lead the troops.

When the two armies officially started fighting, Yan Liang realized that he was wrong.

Huang Zhong’s longbow was so powerful that every arrow hit its target and was fatal.

Not only was Huang Zhong good at archery, but all of his personal guards were also excellent archers.

When Yan Liang wanted to lead a forced crossing, he suffered heavy losses and did not make any progress.

Yan Liang's defeat made Yuan Shao very angry. He decided to give up the attempt and lead all his soldiers to Liyang City.

When Liu Yu learned the news, he also brought an army of 100,000 from Luoyang City to meet Huang Zhong.

At one time, nearly one million soldiers were stationed in the north and south of Liyang City.

The tent was continuous, blocking out the sun.

Everyone understands that the great war that will determine the direction of history is about to begin.

If you win, you win everything; if you lose, you lose nothing.

Sunny day, some clouds, no wind, no waves.

Surrounded by his soldiers, Yuan Shao began to speak to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu hated this way of fighting very much. He felt that the shouting before the battle was very similar to that of some aunties in the vegetable market. They could have just started with the fight, but they had to launch a verbal attack first.

Liu Yu's unwillingness did not mean that he could refuse. After all, in that era people were usually willing to use this method to boost morale and attack the enemy.

Liu Yu was wearing a bright armor, which was obviously exceptionally bright under the sunlight.

Liu Yu had been in the center of the army and did not come out immediately.

He had been observing and found that this section of the river was narrow, less than a hundred steps, and the water was shallow and the current was slow, making it the best terrain for attack.

It is obvious that Yuan Shao placed his troops here in order to better launch the next attack.

Liu Yu estimated that the distance between himself and Yuan Shao's army was less than 150 steps, which made Liu Yu very hesitant.

After all, that day Lu Bu shot down Yuan Shu's Da Tao with one arrow from a distance of 200 steps.

Liu Yu believed that the distance of two hundred steps was the limit for a military general, and perhaps only Lu Bu could accomplish it.

But one hundred and fifty is hard to say.

Liu Yu was very worried that when he walked out of the camp and was talking to Yuan Shao, he would be ambushed by Yuan Shao's archers and shot to death with one arrow.

Although Liu Yu knew that directly shooting the other side's main general when the two armies were shouting at each other had never happened before.

But it does not mean that he will not appear. After all, in history, the white-clothed people crossing the river, which lowered the bottom line, will appear in this era.

It was because Liu Yu had serious ideological burden that he never showed up.

It was not until Yuan Shao called out for the third time that Liu Yu came out surrounded by Xu Chu.

Seeing Liu Yu coming out, Yuan Shao seemed a little excited.

"Uncle Liu, it has been a few years since we parted in Luoyang. You seem to be more energetic now."

Yuan Shao's first words did not sound like a declaration of war, but more like a reunion with old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

"Yuan Benchu, the Yuan family has been enjoying Han's salary for generations and has received Han's grace many times, which is why we have the honor of having three dukes in four generations. You don't want to repay the Han Dynasty, but you dare to raise an army to rebel. Aren't you afraid that the ancestors of the Yuan family will be restless in the underworld?"

Liu Yu did not choose to exchange greetings. Although he had Xu Chu to protect him at this time, he was still within Yuan Shao's attack range. So he had to shorten the exposure time as much as possible. That's why he started his attack mode right from the beginning.

"Uncle, what you said is wrong." Yuan Shao immediately refuted, "You imprisoned the emperor, monopolized power, and used the emperor to control the princes. Such behavior is infuriating to both humans and gods. Now I am just obeying the will of heaven to save your majesty from danger and the people from hanging. Where does the accusation of treason come from?"

Liu Yu felt disgusted when he heard these clichés, and as he was in danger all the time, he was even more unwilling to talk more.

He slowly took two steps back and said calmly: "Benchu, if there is nothing else, don't waste your breath here. Let's fight it out on the battlefield."

After saying this, Liu Yu turned around and rode his horse into the military formation.

Yuan Shao was a little embarrassed. What was going on? Uncle Liu didn't play by the rules!

He turned around to look at Cao Cao who was hiding behind him and asked, "Meng De, Uncle Liu is not discussing this in a conventional way. Has he figured out our plan?"

Cao Cao was also confused. He had originally suggested to Yuan Shao that Liu Bei come to talk to him in order to buy time. Once it was past noon, the sun would directly hit Liu Bei's army.

The strong sunlight will make Liu Huangshu's soldiers dizzy, and this is the best time for Yuan Shao to attack.

Who would have thought that after saying just two sentences, Emperor Liu retreated directly, leaving Yuan Shao alone, disheveled in the wind.

"Uncle Liu is too wise, he may have seen through the plan."

Thinking about Liu Yu's previous performance, Cao Cao felt more and more that this was a possibility.

"Uncle Liu..." Yuan Shao was about to speak again to hold Liu Yu back, but a sound like thunder interrupted him.

"Yuan Shao, Uncle Liu has already made it very clear. If you want to fight, then fight. There is no need for so much nonsense."

Zhang Fei brandished the Zhangba Snake Spear with his eyes wide open, as if he was going to rush over and poke a few transparent holes in him at the next moment.

Yuan Shao was a little surprised by Zhang Fei's roar. He was slightly stunned and didn't know how to respond.

Seeing that Yuan Shao did not respond, Zhang Fei continued to roar, "You don't want to fight, and you don't want to retreat. What's the reason?

What about the four generations of three officials, the family background of learning, but the fussiness and indecision, I think it is no better than a woman. "

Yuan Shao was so angry that he could not speak after being mocked by Zhang Fei as a woman. After a long while, he cursed: "How dare a man insult me ​​like this? Send out the troops! Send out the troops! Kill this thief and you will be rewarded handsomely."

Cao Cao wanted Yuan Shao to wait until noon before sending troops, but Yuan Shao had already given the order.

Watching the messengers galloping through the army, Cao Cao knew that the order could not be reversed.

The war officially began.

The well-trained Yuan army began to lay wooden planks, and soon a floating bridge appeared on the river.

After this preparation, Yuan's army officially launched the attack.

They formed a neat battle formation and attacked towards the south bank.

After a test wave of arrows, the two armies officially started hand-to-hand combat.

For a while, the sounds of shouting and killing were endless.

The battle was extremely brutal and lasted for three hours, but Yuan Shao failed to break through Liu Yu's defense.

Yuan Shao was helpless as he watched his soldiers falling one after another, and could only order his troops to retreat.
