Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 587
In order to ensure the success of the plan, Liu Xie did not hesitate to hide the truth from the Yanzhou army. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun was so cautious that he asked the deputy general to cooperate in the east gate, and almost failed.

During the Battle of Guantao, the Yanzhou army suffered heavy losses. Less than [-] soldiers who followed Su Lie into the city survived, all of them wounded.

Yuan Shao suffered even greater losses. One of his right-hand generals, Yan Liang, died in battle during the breakout. More than half of his army was lost. Only Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang and the defeated troops fled back to Bohai County in embarrassment.

Liu Xie also ordered Li Jing to lead Ran Min, Zhao Yun, Gao Chong, and Jiang Song to pursue them all the way, beheading countless enemy troops. In less than half a month, they went to Yangping, Qinghe, and Zhongshan counties in Jizhou.

At the same time, Qingzhou generals Di Qing and Qi Jiguang marched northward with two armies by land and water. Yuan Xi's new army could not resist, so he simply abandoned Pingyuan County and led his troops to retreat to Yecheng.

In just one month, Liu Xiebing came to Hebei. In addition to Yecheng, Bohai County and Hejian County, Jizhou, which used to be the richest in the world, was occupied by King Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Yuan Shao, who fled back to Hebei, no longer had the heroic appearance of the fourth generation and third prince. His hair was white and his forehead was wrinkled.

All the civil and military officials under his command were listless like frost-beaten eggplants.Only Tian Fengmang looked anxious and thought hard about good strategies.

If the victory in the First World War is not successful, there may be no more fighters to find, and the Qingyan Second Army will go northward, and there is no way to stop it.

"Tian Feng, do you have a plan to retreat?"

Yuan Shao, who was sitting at the top, raised his head suddenly, staring at the wisest counselor in Hebei and asking.

When Tian Feng heard the words, he hesitated to speak, hesitated again and again, finally shook his head, and said: "Although the lord has hundreds of thousands of troops, King Wu's power has already been established. Under the torrent, our army may not survive."

"Thinking of my Yuan family, four generations and three princes, famous all over the world, powerful all over the world, is it really going to die at the hands of Liu Xie's children today!"

The last light in his eyes disappeared, Yuan Shao suddenly felt powerless and sat on the ground paralyzed.

"Father, the child has a plan, but there will be a turning point!"

Under the hall, Yuan Shang suddenly stepped out, with a hostile face, cupped his hands and said.

"It's up to now, but it doesn't matter."

Yuan Shao said casually, he didn't have much hope for his favorite but incompetent son.

"Liu Xie's army is coming to Hebei, and it is absolutely impossible to stop it with our strength alone, but what if there is external help?"

Yuan Shang said confidently.

"The princes of the world are too busy to take care of themselves due to the internal strife in Guanzhong. Cao Aman ceded the territory of Shu, Sun Wentai sat in the east of the great river, and Liu Xuande came to Jingzhou. It is difficult, difficult for them to send troops to help me."

If you want to say that it is difficult to mobilize the princes to send troops, and it is difficult for the princes to send troops to force Liu Xie to retreat, it is difficult to say twice, and Yuan Shao feels helpless.

"Father was wrong. The external force that the child mentioned was not the princes of the Han Dynasty, but the Xianbei of the Northland!"

As soon as Yuan Shang said this, everyone in the room couldn't help but change their colors, Tian Feng's face turned pale, and he let out a long sigh in his heart.

"Although the Xianbei clan is a foreign clan, since Huang Taiji ruled the grassland, they are as powerful as the princes of the Central Plains, and their cavalry come and go like the wind, and their combat power is not bad. If we can get their help and form an alliance, it will be a mere Liu What's the point of cooperating!"

"Shut up, this is a serious crime of colluding with foreign enemies and treason. If it is not our race, our hearts must be different. As Han officials, how can we help let foreign invaders enter and invade the Han Dynasty? Please think again, my lord!"

Before Yuan Shang finished speaking, the upright Tian Feng finally couldn't listen anymore, and directly knelt down to remonstrate bitterly.

"Father, please think twice!"

Yuan Xi didn't hesitate, and also came out, worshiped to the end, and followed Tian Feng to speak.

Unfortunately, apart from the two of them, no one else followed.

Zhang Xi's footsteps moved slightly, he hesitated for a moment, but still did not come out.

"Hahaha, what Hanchen, Tian Feng, don't forget, the one who doesn't keep my Yuan family alive now is Wu Wang Liu Xie. Besides, it's not like we haven't contacted Xianbei before."

Yuan Shang laughed ferociously, and said frantically, pointing to the sky with his right hand.

"My lord, it is absolutely impossible. Once we form an alliance with Xianbei, it is not as simple as a marriage. In the past, our army was strong and Xianbei was weak, so we were naturally not afraid. Now Xianbei is prosperous and our army is weak. With wolf ambitions, non-states and counties cannot be satisfied. One state How many lands are there in the Han Dynasty? In the past, Champion Hou and others were bloody outside the frontier. Fang did not teach the Hu people to go south to graze horses, and bent their bows to complain. It is an exaggeration for us to wait for future generations to not be able to control the frontier. To be able to do such a catastrophic thing as cutting land and exchanging glory!"

Tian Feng was so anxious that his face turned red, and he risked his life to remonstrate, his forehead kept knocking on the ground, and soon there were blood marks.

"It's useless to talk too much, I've made up my mind, you pack up your luggage and go to Youzhou with the army in three days."

Yuan Shao was overjoyed, his eyes narrowed, he waved his sleeves and left.In the cold voice, there is an unquestionable decision.

"Father is wise!"

Yuan Shang said happily immediately.

Yuan Shao went to Youzhou with obvious intentions. He gave up Hebei, which means he accepted Yuan Shang's suggestion.

Tian Fengru was struck by lightning and couldn't hold on any longer. Fortunately, Yuan Xi helped him in time.

The two looked at each other, Yuan Xi smiled bitterly, what should come is still here.

"Calculating the time, Yuan Shao should have left Yecheng and headed to Youzhou."

In Qinghe County, Liu Xie spoke indifferently, sitting in front of him were Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Li Jing and others.

"That's true. The banners on the city wall of Yecheng are closely packed, but it seems unusual. It should be a helpless move out of panic. Yuan Jun abandoned Yecheng."

Pang Tong chuckled, revealing his sharp buck teeth, spewing saliva, causing Guo Jia next to him to dodge again and again.

"The pharmacist's strategy is really extraordinary. He deliberately kept Hejian County from fighting, and left Yuan Shao the hope of retreating to Youzhou in the north."

Liu Xie praised, and then said seriously: "It's just that this battle has just begun."

Everyone knew the meaning of Liu Xie's words and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

From the very beginning, the purpose of Liu Xie's troops was not just Yuan Shao.

Although Yuan Shao was entrenched in Hebei and was powerful, it was not worthy of him almost sending out soldiers and horses from two states to fight.

The Xianbei alien race outside the Great Wall, the talented and bold Huang Taiji, is the real goal of his trip.

In the civil strife of the Han Dynasty, foreign races took advantage of the momentum, whether it was the five random Chinese in history, or the Xianbei people who ruled the grasslands today.

Liu Xie had long planned to suppress Xianbei, but the distance was too far and the time had not come, so he could only sigh in vain before.

Now that the troops are attacking Hebei, the purpose of the arrangement is to force Yuan Shao to collude with Xianbei, not only to answer the slogan of leaving the army, but also to conquer outside the Great Wall in a legitimate way.

More importantly, once Liu Xie wiped out Yuan Shao and added Ji, You, and the three prefectures, he would be feared by the princes of the world.

At that time, Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and others may not abandon the gap and form troops to suppress him, just like the coalition forces defeated Dong in the past.

But now, Liu Xie is going to send troops outside the Great Wall to attack foreign races. This is a major national event, and it is something that the people of the world cannot allow anyone to destroy. No matter how unwilling Cao Cao and others are, they will never dare to attack Liu Xie at this time.

What's more, Yue Fei and others are easy to deal with. If the teacher is unknown, who would dare to be the first to come out and touch the bad luck?
