And on the hillside not far away, there was a small group of people staring at the two sides of the battlefield. Since Cao Ren and Cao Zhang brought their subordinates, when they arrived here, the sky was already a little dark.

Coupled with the torches lit by both sides and the flames of the Liaodong soldiers and horses burning Yuan Shaojun's food and military tents, Cao Ren and Cao Zhang's uncle and nephew could still see the scene of the battle.

Cao Ren looked at the flames in Yuan Shao's army, but there were only two places on fire, one was behind Yuan Shao's army and the other was in front.

Cao Ren could easily tell that it was the Liaodong soldiers who had burned Yuan Shao's army's food and grass.

After the armies of both sides returned to the camp, Cao Ren and Cao Zhang returned to their camp with their subordinates.

At this time, Yuan Shao had already put on his clothes in the large tent of the Chinese army in the Jizhou camp, and was sitting quietly waiting in the large tent of the Chinese army.

Yuan Shao was waiting for Yan Liang, Zhang Yun, and a group of generals to come over and tell him what happened, so many soldiers and horses were killed by the Liaodong army and entered the camp.

Yuan Shao, who was waiting, was thinking about how to deal with the Liaodong army tomorrow, when he heard someone outside the tent shouting:

"Report~! My lord, Yan Liang, Zhang He, and the other generals are waiting to see you."

Yuan Shao heard the report and finally made him wait, so he hurriedly shouted to the outside:

"Let them in quickly."

At this time, Xu You, Ju Shou and other counselors had arrived in Yuan Shao's large tent of the Chinese army. When the camp was in chaos, the sound of fighting had woken them all up.

When these counselors heard the sound of fighting in the camp, they knew that the Liaodong army was coming. They, literati, had no force, and they had no power to restrain chickens. Of course, they ran to the tent of Yuan Shao's army immediately. up.

These people are very smart, and they all know that only Yuan Shao's Chinese military camp is the safest, and there must be strict security there.

Even if the Liaodong army entered the camp, in front of millions of troops, they would not be able to rush into the tent of their lord's Chinese army.

So they all ran here, saying that they came to protect their lord because they were afraid of something unexpected happening to the lord, but they knew best in their hearts that this was to ensure their own safety.

After Yuan Shao spoke, he saw a group of generals walking in from the big tent of the Chinese army, among them Yan Liang was the most embarrassed one.

Seeing Yan Liang like this, Yuan Shao asked Yan Liang before the generals could salute:

"Gongji, why are you in such a mess? Could it be that an army of one million can't match the Liaodong Army that went to take hundreds of thousands?"

When Yan Liang and the others heard their lord's question, they all stopped and stood where they were. Yan Liang cupped his hands at Yuan Shao and said:

"Returning to my lord, when the last general was sleeping, he heard the sound of fighting in the camp, and it came from the place where the grain and grass were stored."

"The last general led his men and horses to the place where the grain and grass were stored. As a result, he saw that the Liaodong army had burned most of our army's grain and grass. I ordered the soldiers under my command to put out the fire and rescue the grain and grass, and at the same time led 5 people to chase them out. .”

When Yuan Shao heard that the grain and grass had been burned, and more than half of it was burned, he was furious for a while, slapped the table and said:

"Who is in charge of food supervision~! Pull me out and cut it~!"

When Yan Liang heard this, before any soldiers came in, he took a step forward, cupped his hands and said:

"My lord, don't be angry. This time, the food supervisor should not be blamed, but the Liaodong soldiers and horses are too cunning. They even sneaked in while patrolling, and they were all cavalry."

"The soldiers didn't ride horses, so how could they withstand the impact of the Liaodong cavalry? They rode their horses and ran rampant in the place where the grain and grass were stored, and the soldiers couldn't stop them at all."

"And after the rescue by the soldiers under the last general's command, our army only lost half of its food and grass, and the remaining food and grass are enough for our million-strong army to feed for four months."

Yuan Shao calmed down his anger when he heard this, and asked:

"Only enough to feed for four months? We don't know when we will be able to completely capture Liaodong. For the rest of the time, what should this million-strong army do?"

Yan Liang said:

"My lord, don't worry. My lord can send people back to Jizhou tomorrow, so that the families can quickly raise food and grass, and send troops to escort them. Moreover, if we capture Liaodong, there will be endless food and grass."

Yuan Shao nodded in satisfaction when he heard this, and continued to ask:

"Then tell me, what's the matter with you being so embarrassed? Didn't you lead [-] soldiers and horses to chase them out? Can you catch the Liaodong soldiers who set the fire?"

Yan Liang felt ashamed when he heard this, and said:

"My lord, the last general is incompetent. He was ambushed by the Liaodong army. All 5 people were killed. The last general barely managed to escape. There were only two people who escaped with me."

Yuan Shao heard this and said angrily:

"Gongji, you~~~ let me, Jizhou Erlang, lose as much as [-] in one fell swoop, are you guilty?"

Yan Liang hurriedly said:

"Please punish the lord, the general will never complain."

When Yan Liang said this, everyone present began to intercede for Yan Liang, saying everything, and most of them were saying that the war with Liaodong was about to start, and they all asked Yuan Shao to destroy Liaodong before punishing him.

Yuan Shao could only spare Yan Liang this time, after a whole night of tossing, everyone was tired, so Yuan Shao also told everyone to go down and rest quickly.

He also knew that if there was a battle with the Liaodong army tomorrow and everyone was listless, then what was the point of fighting this battle.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon on the second day. Lu Bu and Zhao Yun led an army of 90 troops to the outside of Yuan Shao's camp and began to call for battle.

After Yuan Shao learned about it, he ordered Yan Liang and Zhang He to assemble an army and lead an army of one million to directly destroy the 90 army in Liaodong.

Yan Liang and Zhang Yun received Yuan Shao's military order and led the army to fight against him. However, how could these ordinary soldiers and ordinary recruits be the opponents of Liaodong soldiers.

As a result, the army of one million was defeated steadily by the 90 army led by Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, and many soldiers and horses were also dispersed.

Seeing this, Yan Liang didn't stay any longer at all, and took the rest of the troops, together with Zhang He, and Yuan Shao, and fled.

They wanted to take Yuan Shao and flee back to Jizhou. When Jizhou recruited new troops and came back to take revenge, they didn't expect that the Liaodong soldiers and horses were so powerful.

Just as Yan Liang was taking Yuan Shao back to Jizhou, he was captured by Cao Ren.

Yuan Shao was completely done this time.

Cao Ren did not expect that Yuan Shao's million-strong army was so vulnerable that it was defeated by the Liaodong army.

Cao Ren didn't wait for the result of both sides being defeated, but only waited for Yuan Shao's army to flee.
