The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

"My lord, let's retreat! The enemy's cavalry has been pinned down, so we can preserve our strength!" Gongsun continued.

Preserve strength?

To Gongsun Zan, this sentence was a joke.Is he going to come here swearing and leave in despair?

"Where is Tian Kai? Where is Shan Jing?" Gongsun Zan shouted.

Unfortunately, no one responded.

"My lord, be careful!" Gongsun Xu suddenly stepped forward and stabbed Gongsun Zan, dripping with blood.

"Protect the lord!"

Countless allied soldiers surrounded him, and it was only then that Gongsun Zan realized that he was just a mortal who would be injured and bleed.

"Mingjin retreat!" Gongsun Zan ordered.

"Wait, escort the lord to retreat first!" Gongsun Xu said weakly.

So, hundreds of people began to protect Gongsun Zan and retreated, gathering thousands of people on the way.

After retreating behind the buttocks of the army, they began to withdraw their troops.

People behind blocked him, but no pursuers appeared behind Gongsun Zan.

The Youzhou army exploded with unprecedented morale, fought the entangled enemy in front of them, and immediately started to flee after getting rid of them.

In the bitter cold place of Youzhou, people's physical fitness is generally relatively high, which is why the Youzhou army is elite.

If Gongsun Zan hadn't called for gold to withdraw his troops, I'm afraid they could have persisted for half an hour before they started to be defeated.

Although the result is the same.

The Allies pursued, but with little success.

Gongsun Zan returned to his territory, gathered the remnants of the army, and gained a hundred thousand soldiers.

He didn't dare to stay, and headed north all the way, entering Youbeiping County.

This means that Gongsun Zan gave up most of his territory and began to hold on to one place.

The heavy cavalry did not achieve the expected results, and Gongsun Zan knew that he was powerless.

Chapter 440 Five Calls for Help

After Gongsun Zan withdrew to You Beiping, Yuan Shao didn't treat him politely, and continued to take over Gongsun Zan's territory.

According to the current speed, it would take half a month to reach You Beiping, and Gongsun Zan had a chance to breathe.

What can you do in half a month?

It's not that Gongsun Zan has never experienced failure, what he cares about is how to solve the predicament.

He still has an army of [-], and the power to fight!

"My lord, we can't just sit and wait for death." Guan Jing said.

Gongsun Zan glanced at him.

Guan Jing blurted out, "Ask the Marquis of Dongyang for help!"

Indeed, as long as the Marquis of Dongyang is willing to help, expulsion of Yuan Shao will be easy.

However, Gongsun Zan couldn't hold back his face.

Before Dongyanghou came to help with good intentions, but Gongsun Zan refused.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing to come to ask for help now?

"My lord, the time of life and death is not the time to care about face." Fan Fang said the same.

Gongsun Zan was already moved, but he couldn't let it go.

"My lord, I am willing to go on an envoy!" Guan Jing said.

In other words, I will do things that lose face!

"Okay." Gongsun Zan only answered with one word.

"My lord, it's absolutely impossible. Please go out in person, so that you can be sincere." Fan Fang said.

Gongsun Zan's face fell, and he would not do it even if he was killed.

Guan Jing looked at his words and said: "You Beiping still needs to be guarded by the lord. The lord is here to wait for my good news."

"Now that our army is newly defeated, it's really not easy to leave." Gongsun Zan expressed embarrassment.

However, Fan Fang still refused to give up, and said: "Since the lord can't get away, you might as well write a letter with your own hand and tell Dongyang Hou about your feelings."

What do you mean, beg for mercy?

Gongsun Zan resisted from the bottom of his heart, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

"My lord, we rejected Marquis Dongyang once. If we didn't show some sincerity, how could Marquis Dongyang agree to send troops?" Fan Fang said.

"This..." Gongsun Zan hesitated.

"It's a simple matter, it's up to me!" Guan Jing said.
