Chapter 307

Back to camp, not long.

All the soldiers had already gathered together in twos and threes, and they all told the soldiers who hadn't gone in the camp what happened just now, spitting all over the place, talking like a river.

"You didn't see that General Zilong single-handedly picked and killed Yuan Tan who was clamoring before. It turns out that Zilong defeated him on purpose."

"Let me just say, how could General Zilong not be able to defeat that guy Yuan Tan, it was intentional." The surrounding audience all sighed with emotion, showing such expressions.

"Hehe, Yuan Tan is nothing. After Yuan Tan's death, Yan Liangwen and Chou, one of the top generals under Yuan Shao's command, both went out to fight. Qi and General Zilong, do you know the result?"

"The result is that General Zilong only had two rounds, one dead and one wounded, and directly picked and killed Yan Liang. Yuan Shao was so frightened that his face turned pale, and all the generals were terrified. Only five people dared to attack after besieging him."

"Also, what's more, General Daorong is even more formidable. He raised his ax to judge Yuan Jun's camp arbitrarily. No matter how he cursed, Yuan Jun didn't dare to come out of the camp to fight."

"Even, even Cao Cao's illegitimate son was exposed, and he is still the eldest son of the Yuan family." Another person continued the conversation.

There was a lot of discussion everywhere, and morale was high.

Compared with the high morale in Zhang Xiu's army camp, on the other hand, Yuan Shao's army camp was lifeless, and the soldiers all had low faces and no fighting spirit at all.

No way, their faith was shattered.

There was only one person on the opposite side, even if he killed Yuan Tan, he even shot all the fierce generals on his side, and even Yan Liang, who was hailed as the strongest, was stabbed to death by the opposite white-robed general.

This damn hit a hammer.

There was only one person on the opposite side, and the key point was that this person was not the strongest. When the strongest Xing Daorong appeared on the stage, no one dared to take a breather.What a shame.

As a result, the military spirit was a little shaken at this time.

If it weren't for the fact that there was no food for thousands of miles around them, they would have run away long ago, and they couldn't beat them at all.And they have been away for a long time, and they have long been weary of war.

Obviously, the spirit of the victorious teacher is no longer there, so I'm afraid it won't last long!

……

At this time, inside Yuan Jun's big tent.

Yuan Shao's anger could not be contained in the end.

Wow, the documents on the table were swept to the ground, and then the table was kicked out with one kick, the bang bang bang bang was extremely ear-piercing.

Clang!
Pulling out his personal guard saber, he danced wildly and roared at the same time: "Every man insults me, every man insults me, I will behead Xing Daorong and Zhang Xiugou with my own hands."

As for the inside of the tent, all the civil and military personnel lowered their heads and took two steps back. Yuan Shao was still angry, they didn't want to make trouble, so they all hid far away.

a long time,

Yuan Shao sat on the ground angrily.

His chest was heaving, he had never been so humiliated, he was the fourth generation and the third prince, who would dare to be rampant in front of him?Anyone who dared to do that was killed by him.

Seeing Yuan Shao sitting on the ground, Xu You strode out.

"My lord, now Zhao Yun beheaded the eldest son first, then general Yan Liang, and fought bravely against the five generals, so that the morale of our three armies has declined, but the enemy's morale has grown."

"In my opinion, it's better to withdraw from Yecheng and recuperate. It won't be too late to think about going south to destroy Zhangxiu when our army gathers a million troops in the future."

Xu You cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

Before Yuan Shao could answer, Ju Shou hurriedly went out and cupped his hands and said, "No, my lord, absolutely not. It would be fine if our army didn't march south, but now that we have already marched south, it's a big taboo for military strategists to retreat."

"If we retreat this time, Yuzhou and Yanzhou will not be protected. In this way, the princes of the world will not be afraid of the lord, and the lord will be completely branded as a traitor. Instead, Zhang Xiu will become a teacher of justice."

"At that time, Zhang Xiu will surely take the opportunity to march into the Central Plains. If the lord is defeated, there will be no one to fight to the death. In this way, Zhang Xiu will rule with the lord across the river."

"At that time, even if the lord wants to go south, there is no chance. How does the lord's land of four states compare with the land of five states under Zhang Xiu's command?"

"The master can only use Jizhou, but Zhang Xiu has the backing of Jingyang and tens of thousands of people, how can he compete with it?" Ju Shou said hoarsely, with a solemn expression.

Ju Shou knew that if he retreated this time, it would be a defeat, and the two prefectures of Yanyu and Yuzhou had no scourge to defend, and most of the soldiers under his command were from Jizhou. Who would like to stay?

In later generations, Cao Cao was defeated and Cao Ren was able to defend Nanjun for a period of time. This was still a tribe, and he was replaced by other generals, who surrendered eight years earlier.

"Stop talking, I'm in such a mess, I don't have the heart to deal with these trivial matters, so let's get back!" Yuan Shao murmured, waving his hands with pain on his face.

"Trivial matter? My lord, it's already this time, how can I not care about it!" Ju Shou took another step forward, his voice trembling, and his eyes fixed on Yuan Shao and roared.

"I told you, I'm so upset, don't you understand?" Yuan Shao was a little annoyed.

"My lord, I..."

"Back off!" Yuan Shao waved his sleeves and shouted.

Ju Shou was stunned for a long time, then he shook his sleeves angrily and left.The rest of the civil and military forces did not dare to stay for long and withdrew one after another.

After leaving the camp, Jushou showed pain on his face, and roared in his heart: You are mediocre, you are mediocre!How can there be such a mediocre master in the world?At the moment of life and death, he actually said that his heart was in a mess?

Incomprehensible, really incomprehensible!
Just when he was heartbroken, the rest of the generals also withdrew. Ju Shou took a look and shouted to stop.

"General Wen, General Zhang, and General Gao, you three are well-known in the army. Now that General Yan died in battle, it will definitely cause panic in the army."

"You immediately go to appease the morale of the army and curb the spread of rumors."

"In addition, encourage the fighting spirit of the three armies and tell them that in this battle, the military merit system will be doubled." Ju Shou was annoyed, and he stopped Wen Chou and others and said.

"Yeah!" The three nodded.

They still respect Jushou very much.

"By the way, send relatives to guard the granary. I'm worried that Zhang Xiu is trying to attack the granary behind our army." Ju Shou reminded again that food is the foundation of the three armies, and there is no room for loss.

After arranging these, Jushou hurried back.

With an anxious expression on his face, he returned to his general camp. There was a laid out blueprint inside, with many things marked on it, including simple topography and landforms.

Jushou looked at the map, Yecheng was an important town on the border, beyond Yecheng were Duyang, Bowang, and Zhixian counties.The three counties are in the shape of a character, and the defense is relatively weak.

If you break through these three cities, you can enter Yushui and go down the river. Within three days, the army can reach the important town of Nanyang, Xinye.There are a large number of Jingzhou people trained by Zhang Xiu in Xinye.

As long as Xinye can be slaughtered, the hearts of Jingzhou people can be disturbed. There is still hope for Jingzhou to win, after all, they still have the upper hand this time.

"What about dividing troops to attack?" Ju Shou pondered for a long time, and couldn't help but squeezed his chin and muttered. "That's it, that's all there is now!"

After speaking, he didn't have time to drink water, and turned back to the tent in the middle.

This is related to the success or failure of Jizhou, and he must strongly recommend it.

……

Not long after, handsome outside the tent.

Ju Shou took a look, and resolutely stepped forward with his hakama.

"Join the army, the lord has ordered that no one is allowed to enter without his summons." Two personal guards stretched out their hands and blocked Jushou's way.

"Hmph, ridiculous, get out of the way quickly."

Jushou was a little annoyed, he shook his sleeves and shouted.

"This..." The two guards were in a dilemma.

"Let him in!" Yuan Shao's deep and heavy voice sounded.

Open the curtain and bow to Ju Shou.

"Tell me, what's the matter!" Yuan Shao said with a displeasure, frowning.

"My lord, the great cause has yet to be accomplished. If I can't win this battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult for my lord to dominate the world." Ju Shou's voice was hoarse, and it was by no means alarmist.

"Presumptuous!" Yuan Shao shouted.

"If you dare to speak nonsense again, I'll have someone fork you out." Yuan Shao shouted, shaking his sleeves.

"My lord, I'm not alarmist. In this battle, my lord has no way out, I must fight, and I can't lose. As long as my lord can draw, there is a chance that Jingzhou will be destroyed within three years at most."

"But if we don't fight, or if we lose, Zhang Xiu will never give the lord a chance to breathe. At that time, he will push the front to both sides of the Yellow River with all his strength, and our army will be passive."

Jushou explained the sentence solemnly.

"Hmph, what's the use of talking nonsense? Just tell me how to defeat the enemy." Yuan Shao was a little impatient. Today, he lost his eldest son. Although he didn't know if it was his own, he was indeed dead.

"My lord, it's not difficult to defeat the enemy." Ju Shou vowed, then went straight to the map book, pointed to the map book and said, "Look, lord."

"Our army has 20 troops, including more than [-] cavalry, all of whom are good at riding and shooting, and are elite cavalry. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu only has [-] troops, and even less than [-] cavalry."

"According to my intention, [-] iron cavalry and [-] infantry can be left to guard this place, so that the [-] soldiers under Zhang Xiu's command will not dare to leave the city easily."

"As for the remaining [-] soldiers in our army, we can take advantage of the situation and go south to approach Bowang, Duyang and other places. After the capture, we can go south along Yushui to approach Xinye."

"In this case, Zhang Xiu must not sit idly by, and must send people out of the city to help. At that time, our cavalry can ride and shoot to disrupt him."

"Over time, the Jingzhou army's morale will not be stable, and it will inevitably be defeated. My lord can also take advantage of the situation to separate Nanyang and rule the river with Zhang Xiu, so as to gain time to recuperate."

"The author named this plan, End war with war. Only by repelling Zhang Xiu can our army gain a firm foothold, otherwise the two states in the Central Plains will definitely be lost."

Every sentence of Jushou was sonorous and forceful, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Shao solemnly, waiting for him to make a decision.

"Divide the troops?" Yuan Shao frowned: "As far as I know, Zhang Xiu's army has been divided into two groups, and Wei Yan is stationed outside the city, and the soldiers under his command are all elites in all battles. I'm afraid..."

"My lord, there is no need to worry! Just hand it over to my subordinates. My lord just needs to lead the rest of the army and go south in one fell swoop." Ju Shou said confidently.

He is confident that he can block Zhang Xiu.

Yuan Shao was lost in thought, for a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Well, go down and prepare, and I will call everyone to discuss matters in the camp tomorrow, and then make a decision."

"My lord, the military situation is urgent..." Ju Shou was anxious.

"Okay, don't need to say much." Yuan Shao waved his hand, "I'm so tired today, you can step back first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

"No!" Ju Shou lowered his head helplessly.

…………

In Yecheng, the general's office.

There was laughter in the mansion, without any sense of pressure, as if the opposing army was not Yuan Shao.

"Report~, report to the lord, the governor of Zhuge sent someone to write a letter, and I hope the lord will read it." While everyone was chatting, the messenger shouted loudly.

After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu frowned slightly.

After a long time, Zhang Xiu raised his eyes, everyone was a little curious, Pang Tong tried to ask: "My lord, did Kong Ming come from Runan?"

Zhang Xiu shook his head and handed out the letter.

Everyone browsed one by one. After a while, Huang Zhong frowned and said, "This Zhuge Liang is so courageous that he changed our army's battle strategy without authorization. Does he still have a master in his eyes?"

"It's okay to go around, but he goes deep alone, this is a big taboo for military strategists!" Wei Yan said with a frown.

"That's right, it's not advisable to go deep alone, let alone Zhuge Liang doesn't obey orders." Zhao Fan said in a deep voice.

Zhao Yun also frowned. Although he didn't say much, he also had some opinions in his heart.As a general, the most taboo thing is to accept the orders of the emperor outside.

In this case, most of them will make the king worry, so Babaili hastened to take back the military power for various reasons, and even ruined a great advantage because of this.

Pang Tong didn't say anything, but looked at the sand table in the middle, squinting his eyes, following what Zhuge Liang said in the letter, the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

Zhang Xiu didn't get angry to recall Zhuge Liang, but was very calm, because others were worried about the general's disloyalty, but he didn't have to worry about it, let alone he believed in Zhuge Liang.

Looking around, seeing Pang Tong thinking deeply, he couldn't help saying: "Shi Yuan, in your opinion, is it necessary for Kong Ming to go around thousands of miles? Is it too risky?"

"Going deep alone, taking risks naturally."

"However, I took a look at it just now. It should be difficult to find Kong Ming's detour." Pang Tong said: "Look, my lord, Kong Ming detoured from the east of Runan to Sishan."

"After Sishan, it was Qiaojun. After passing Qiaojun, it was Liangguo, and then arrived in Chenliu. If he takes Chenliu in Yanzhou this time, Yuan Shao's army will be destroyed without attack."

Pang Tong affirmed the rationality of Zhuge Liang's layout, because Chen Liunai controlled the important areas in the north and south, and could cut off Yuan Shao's grain road.

"It's just that opportunities and dangers coexist this time. As long as we can reach Chenliu and block Yuan Shao's retreat, Yuan Jun will undoubtedly be defeated."

"But if Yuan Shao found out ahead of time, I'm afraid few of his more than 1 people will be able to come back safely." Pang Tong explained solemnly.

Zhuge Liang's courage this time is not small.

Pang Tong murmured in his heart, Kong Ming is not a person who takes risks, but this person is more competitive than everyone else. I am afraid that it is probably because of this that he made a detour.

"Since Kong Ming has joined forces with Xu Shu, what should we do now?" Zhang Xiu didn't bother to care, and simply threw the problem to Pang Tong.

"It's enough to hold off the enemy." Pang Tong chuckled.

"It's simple," Zhang Xiu smiled brightly: "Han Sheng, these days, let the soldiers take strict precautions, and resolutely don't give the enemy any chance."

"My lord, don't worry, the last general will fulfill his mission." Huang Zhong said in a deep voice with some emotion.

"Okay, the whole army cooperates with Kong Ming for the time being. As long as Chen Liu can be captured, Yuan Shao's army will definitely be terrified. This will reduce many unnecessary casualties of our army."

Zhang Xiu looked at the time and said.

"No!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Immediately, the crowd began to retreat, while Zhang Xiu stayed on his own to guide his knowledge of geography.
