Chapter 240
Zhang Zhao sighed, "As long as my lord knows the consequences of failure, I have nothing to say."

Sun Ce nodded, "Although this matter is dangerous, once it succeeds, it will have great benefits."

Having said that, Sun Ce turned his head to look at Zhou Yu again, and said with a smile, "Gong Jin, this opportunity must not be missed, otherwise, I am afraid it will be impossible to cross the river again, so I decided to cross the river and attack Huainan." .”

……

Yanzhou.

"what?"

Yuan Tan stared wide-eyed at the soldier who delivered the news, his eyes full of disbelief.

"You said Guo Gong had been killed."

"Yes, the Juye Army has entered the city now."

Yuan Tan turned his head to look at Guo Tu fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Gongze, is this what you said was foolproof?"

Guo Tu's face turned pale, and he snorted heavily, "Guo Gong, I really can't become a great weapon. I can't do such a small thing well. I'm just a waste."

Xin Ping smiled wryly and said, "Now that Guo Gong has been killed, our plan may not be able to be implemented. What should we do next?"

Yuan Tan's face was ashen, looking at the few remaining soldiers and horses around, he punched the nearby tree, "What else can I do, retreat?"

Guo Tu hurriedly waved his hands, "My lord, absolutely not!"

Yuan Tan frowned, "Mr. Gongze, why not?"

Guo Tu said with a wry smile, "My lord, if our army retreats, who will restrain Ju Ye's troops?"

Speaking of this, Guo Tu did not wait for Yuan Tan to answer, and sighed, "My lord, although our army has failed now, as long as we stay here, we can restrain Juye's soldiers and horses, and reduce the pressure on the lord's side." pressure.

If our army retreats, Ju Ye's soldiers will rush to help Lv Bu's army. At that time, the pressure on the lord's soldiers will increase. If they fail, the eldest son will be responsible for a lot! "

Hearing this, Yuan Tan was taken aback immediately, and only then did he realize that he secretly yelled that it was not good.

The attack on Yanzhou this time was mainly initiated by Qingzhou. Once it failed so quickly, it would indeed affect the attack on the North Road.

In case the two armies all failed, this time not only would he not be able to win the favor of his father, but he might even arouse his anger.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Yuan Tan's forehead.

Although he is the eldest son, once his father's anger is aroused, his position may not be guaranteed!

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan hurriedly raised his head to look at Guo Tu, "Mr. Gongze, what should we do?"

Guo Tu waved his hand and said with a smile, "Young Master, don't worry. Although our army has been defeated, as long as we hold back Juye's troops here, it will be a great achievement. There will definitely be a piece of the eldest son."

After hearing this, Yuan Tan calmed down a little and nodded, "In that case, our army will stay here to contain Juye's troops."

Xin Ping was taken aback when he heard what the two said, "My lord, absolutely not."

Yuan Tan turned his head to look at Xin Ping, frowned and asked, "Mr. Zhongzhi, why not?"

Xin Ping smiled wryly and pointed at the soldiers around, "My lord, our army has no morale at all now. Once the enemy comes to attack, how should our army resist?"

Speaking of this, Xin Ping sighed, "Once you can't stop the enemy's attack, the eldest son will be in danger."

Hearing this, Yuan Tan's expression changed immediately, "Mr. Zhongzhi, do you think the Juye army will come to attack?"

Xin Ping nodded, "If my predictions are correct, the Juye Army will definitely not keep us in Yanzhou, and will definitely find a way to drive us away.

Therefore, in the next position, it is better to leave Yanzhou, and the province will be in danger. "

Yuan Tan was secretly startled, and turned to look at Guo Tu, "Mr. Gongze, what do you think of this matter?"

Guo Tu smiled slightly and said slowly, "Mr. Zhongzhi, you are scaremongering. As long as our army sets up a camp, even if the Juye Army has more soldiers than us, it may not be so easy to break through the camp."

Having said that, Guo Tu turned around and cupped his hands at Guo Tu, "My lord, as long as our army chooses a good location and sends soldiers to defend, the Juye army will not be able to attack the camp no matter what."

Hearing this, Yuan Tan's eyes lit up, "Mr. Gongze, do you have a place to camp?"

Guo Tu nodded, "My lord, occupy a high place, one person is in charge, and no one can open it. I have already selected a place. As long as I set up a camp here, no matter how many soldiers and horses the Juye Army has, I will definitely not let you go." The camp may be captured."

Yuan Tan was overjoyed immediately, "Okay, pass on the order immediately, and the army will move out and rush to the camping site."

The location that Guo Tu was interested in was not far from Juye City. It was on a small hill with steep mountains on both sides. There were only two ways out, front and back. The most wonderful thing was that there was a flat land on the top of the hill, which was just right for camping.

Yuan Tan led a group of people to the hill, looking at the dangerous places around, he couldn't help laughing up to the sky.

A look of complacency flashed in Guo Tu's eyes, and he pointed to the mountains on both sides, and said with a smile, "Look, my lord, there is no need to send people to defend the two sides of this mountain, and the enemy will definitely not be able to charge up. The only way to go up the mountain is to Two things before and after, as long as people are sent to guard, even if the Juye army has great ability, I am afraid they will not be able to attack."

Yuan Tan laughed and said, "Mr. Gongze, it is indeed true. As long as we occupy this place, we will be invincible."

Guo Tu pointed to the passage ahead and said with a big smile, "Although the mountain is gentler there, there are many stones on the hillside. If someone wants to attack, no troops are allowed. Only those stones are enough to beat the enemy down." The damage was severe."

Yuan Tan was even more happy, and said with a big smile, "In this way, our army will mainly defend the rear, so there will be no worries."

Guo Tu nodded, "It doesn't matter if it's in the rear. Although there are no rocks there, everyone can make logs. As long as the enemy rushes up, a log can hit the enemy. The power is extraordinary, and it is bound to severely damage the giant wild soldiers. "

Yuan Tan roared, "Send the order to set up camp here. I want to see how the Juye Army wants to attack here."

Guo Tu said with a smile, "My lord, as long as our army occupies this place, it will be firmly fixed here like a nail. Although the Juye army has more soldiers and horses than us, they still have nothing to do with us."

Speaking of this, Guo Tu suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, "Juye's army can't attack here, so I don't dare to send money to help Puyang. In this way, our army can restrain Juye's soldiers and horses, and the eldest son will stand down." A great achievement.”

Feeling the coolness of the mountain breeze, Yuan Tan looked at the empty surroundings, feeling extremely comfortable, and said with a big smile.

"I really didn't expect that there is such a treasure land here. It's a pity that the Juye Army didn't use it, but I used it instead. It's really ridiculous!"
