    Two flowers bloomed, one on each side. Just when Xiao Yi was blocked at Hukou Pass and it was difficult for men and horses to advance, on the land of Jizhou thousands of miles away, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, two mortal enemies, used the city, power, and lives as bargaining chips to launch a plan.  A shocking gamble, the winner is king, the loser is a thief!

    It has to be said that Cao Jun¡¯s strategy was very successful. He first asked Xiao Yi to send troops to merge with the state to attract the attention of the Yuan Group. When reinforcements moved westward and the central area was empty, they suddenly launched an attack and caught Yuan Jun off guard!

    In just one month, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan entered Qingzhou and captured the three counties of Chengyang, Donglai and Beihai. Cao Cao led the main force of the Chinese army and also crossed the Yellow River and attacked the southern city of Jizhou. Yuan's army retreated steadily.  , almost no power to fight back!

    Bingzhou is in emergency, Qingzhou is in emergency, and the whole of Hebei is in emergency. Military reports requesting reinforcements are flying to Yecheng like snowflakes, causing great panic. The noble families and powerful families have moved their families north to escape to a safe place, while the common people are  Hide at home, burn incense, worship God, and pray for blessings!

    At this point, the buildings in Hebei were about to collapse, and people were panicked. Officials wrote letters one after another, suggesting that they abandon their hometown of Yecheng, and everyone fled to Youzhou to temporarily avoid Cao's army.  If a young master is taken as a hostage, it will be enough to cede some land!

    Unexpectedly, at the critical moment of life and death, Yuan Shao actually broke out, radiating the courage of the past, and against all opinions, instead of running away, he took the initiative to send troops to fight to the death with Cao Cao, the leader of the alliance who ordered the eighteen princes to control everything.  It's back!

    Yuan Shao cheered up and organized his army to meet the enemy. In order to appease people's hearts, he also opened the Jizhou treasury, used food to help the people, and issued three decrees:

    "Rumors and rumors that shake people's hearts - kill!"

    Those who have two ambitions and collude with the enemy - kill!

    Revisiting the battle, not the former-kill!

    He also asked his eldest son, Yuan Tan, to go to Qingzhou to resist the Xiahou brothers' attack; his second son, Yuan Xi, went to Youzhou to recruit soldiers and horses to go south for rescue; and then he sent his nephew Gao Gan to defend Hukou Pass, which would definitely hold back Xiao Yi's men.  , ensure the safety of Jizhou¡¯s flanks!

    When the troops approached the city and were about to reach the trench, the big thing was over. Yuan Shao decided to defend the enemy from outside and left Shen Pei to defend Ye City. He took his son Yuan Shang and his counselor Guo Tu together with another 150,000 troops and went south to camp in Cangting.  , prepare for a decisive battle with Cao Jun!

    Over the years, Yuan's army has suffered repeated defeats and lost all its elite troops. In order to raise 150,000 troops, Yuan Shao used all his strength. All men in the general's palace who can move will go with the army, including servants,  Grooms, gardeners, cooks They also mobilized the Yecheng garrison and spent a lot of money to recruit refugees. Finally, they gathered the troops together. There was no time for training, and they went directly to the battlefield!

    Cangting is located in the south of Yecheng, 120 miles away, with Weishui in the east, Heshan in the west, and the Ecuador Avenue in the middle. It is also the last line of defense for Yuan's army. Once this place falls to the enemy, Yecheng will be naked in front of the enemy!

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "The battle at Cangting is related to the survival of Hebei. We must go all out to prevent Cao's army from advancing even half a step!"

    "Cao's army has come from a long way, and his troops must be tired. While their foothold is not stable, our army will attack with all our strength, maybe"

    "Cao Mengde is good at using troops, how can he be unprepared? The key is that our army's combat power is no longer what it used to be!"

    ??¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Late at night, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shang, and Guo Tu sat together in the Central Military Tent at Yuan Jun¡¯s camp. They were arranging their troops to fight against Cao Jun. However, the three of them deliberated for a long time, but they couldn¡¯t find a good solution. They kept sighing!

    The matter of fighting a war is both difficult and simple. There are only three conditions: good soldiers and brave generals, sufficient food and grass, and a wise commander, and then you can go wild. The problem is that Yuan Jun does not have any of the above three conditions.  have!

    In the Battle of Guandu, Yuan's army was completely defeated. All his elite troops were lost, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled. The newly recruited soldiers were either sixty or sixteen years old. They could not even hold a sword or a gun. How to deal with them?  Where is Cao Jun's tiger and wolf division?

    The young labor force was gone, the fields were difficult to cultivate, and food was naturally insufficient. In addition, Cao Jun sent merchants to purchase supplies on a large scale, causing prices in Hebei to skyrocket. Rice was as expensive as pearls. People were starving to death in many places, and it was difficult to collect military rations.  Come on, the soldiers are half hungry and half full!

    As for the commander-in-chief, although Yuan Shao cheered up, how sharp could a broken sword be? He vomited blood several times, which damaged his physical strength and made it difficult for him to shoulder the heavy responsibility of soldiers and horses. He could only support it with force.  The three sons of the Yuan family are more useless than the other!

    "The thief Cao is good at using troops."Your officers and men have experienced hundreds of battles, and they are all warriors of tigers and wolves. You also have peerless names as generals, and unparalleled geniuses as strategists. With Hebei's current strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist!

    Send several more groups of envoys with heavy money to Jingzhou, and ask Liu Biao to quickly send troops to attack Xuchang City from behind, forcing Cao's thieves to return to the army for rescue. Otherwise, they will be in trouble. Once Hebei is lost, how can Jingzhou survive alone?

    There are also Jiangdong, Hanzhong, Yizhou, Liaodong all sent envoys. As long as one prince sends troops, the pressure on our army can be relieved. Cao's army is short of food and grass. It has been delayed for a year and a half, and the old soldiers of the division have retreated due to fatigue!  "

    Regarding the situation at hand, Yuan Shao saw clearly that Hebei was in a precarious situation and could be overthrown at any time. He could only seek medical treatment urgently and place his hope on the princes!

    "General, there is no need to worry. The battlefield is changing rapidly. The outcome of victory and defeat, as well as the status of strength and weakness, may be reversed at any time. As long as our army works together, we will definitely be able to repel the powerful enemy and ensure that the four states of Hebei are safe!"

    Guo Tu comforted him with kind words, hoping that Yuan Shao would cheer up. In the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao defeated the strong with the weak. They might not be able to repeat such a thing again!

    "Report! - Cao Ying sent an envoy, requesting to meet with the general. There are important things to report!"

    A soldier ran into the tent, knelt down on one knee and saluted, holding a greeting card in his hand with four words on it: Jiujiang-Jiang Qian!

    "Send the order, open the camp gate, and invite Cao Jun's envoy to come in. The etiquette must be solemn, and don't lose the face of Hebei!"

    Yuan Shao took the greeting card with a look of confusion in his eyes. Cao Cao sent someone at this time. Could it be that he was issuing a letter of war?

    Poor people like to pretend to be rich, and ugly people like to put on makeup. Similarly, the more guilty a person is, the more they like to put on airs. After the messengers went out, Yuan Shao dressed up, wearing a dragon helmet, gold armor, and a beheading sword in his hand.  Sitting majestically behind the handsome case!

    There are also hundreds of warriors, wearing heavy armor and holding long swords, arrayed on the left and right of the tent, forming a sword mountain array, and a large oil pot is also placed outside the tent door, with blazing flames underneath and oil flowers inside.  Rolling, thick steam comes out

    "Envoy from Cao Ying, please pay a visit to the general!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "Jiujiang-Jiang Ziyi, I have met General Yuan-good luck and good fortune!"

    A moment later, Jiang Gan walked into the tent with steady steps and a calm demeanor, completely turning a blind eye to the samurai, sword mountain, and oil pan!

    Jiang Qian is doing well now. With his sharp tongue and sharp tongue, he has become Cao Ying's special envoy. He travels all over the world to lobby the princes. He has never seen any big scenes such as mountains of swords, seas of fire, cannons and grass basins.  A pan of oil is no problem!

    "Sir, you are so courageous and worthy of your position as an envoy, but it is a pity that he was used by a traitor Please sit down and have a drink!"

    "Thank you for the compliment from the general. I'm just pretending to be a tiger. With Cao Ying's millions of troops behind me, I'm naturally more courageous!"

    "A million-strong army? That's an exaggeration. What is the purpose of Cao A'hao sending you here? Is it because the fortified city is difficult to conquer and the army is short of food and fodder, so he is preparing to negotiate a peace and retreat?"

    There is something in Yuan Shao's words, pointing out that Cao's army's lack of food and grass is the biggest weakness, implying that he is not afraid!

    "Haha!  Thanks to the great blessing of the general, last year the weather was good and the grain was plentiful. Xu, Yan, Yu, and Si prefectures were ripe. The grain was piled up like a mountain. The soldiers couldn't finish it. They all started to feed the horses. On the contrary, Hebei  In various places, I heard that hungry people are causing trouble!"

    My Lord, the Prime Minister, is nostalgic for old times and hopes to meet with the general in front of the two armies to have a heart-to-heart talk over wine, reminisce about the past, and show some friendship as a friend!  "

    Jiang Gan was not polite, and immediately retorted with very irritating words. Finally, he took out a letter, which was written by Cao Cao himself. It was both an invitation and a letter of challenge!

    "My old friend Cao Mengde wrote to Yuan Benchu. You and I met each other when we were young, became playmates, helped each other as young people, and pursued official careers together. We respected each other in middle age and competed in the Central Plains. For decades, we have known each other, cherished each other, and been as close as brothers.  Although the swordsmen meet, no personal feelings will be hurt. I only hope that before the decisive battle, I can have a few drinks with my brother and talk about the friendship of the past, and then give it a go and become a king or a bandit, each according to his destiny"

    Yuan Shao took the letter and read it three times. Finally, he sighed and looked very sad. He and Cao Cao were old enemies and friends for decades. How could we not have some friendship?

    The most familiar person is a friend, and the most familiar person is a powerful enemy. The two become one. This wonderful feeling cannot be described in words. Thinking of this, Yuan Shao took a pen and ink and wrote a reply to Cao Cao, agreeing to meet.  !

    "Before a life-and-death battle, having a few drinks with old friends is a good story. Since Meng De has arranged the location, I will set a time. Three days later, the two armies will have a drink and talk in front of the formation, and we will see you there!"

    "As a gentleman, a horse cannot be chased. I take my leave. Go back and tell the Prime Minister to prepare fine wines and delicacies and wait for the general's arrival!"

    Jiang Gan took the letter, stood up and said goodbye. Under the escort of several guards, he returned to Cao Jun's camp!

    "I am ordering General Jiang Qi to rush to the Cangting battlefield within three days to fight for life and death!"

    Yuan Shao pondered for a long time and looked northwest. There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes. If the plan was successful, he might be able to reverse the situation!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Chai, I'm taking my leave.

    Jiang Gan took the letter, stood up and said goodbye. Under the escort of several guards, he returned to Cao Jun's camp!

    "I am ordering General Jiang Qi to rush to the Cangting battlefield within three days to fight for life and death!"
