    Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan began to march towards Tieniu City in order to retain Yuan Shao.

    With more than 200,000 troops acting together, they will definitely not be able to hide it from the eyes and ears of the Yangzhou scouts.

    Liu Ke learned about this very quickly and was very satisfied with Yuan Shao's efficiency.

    "Lord, when the Allied forces enter the borders of Yangzhou, our army will launch operations and we must defeat them." Guo Jiadao.

    Xu Shu stood up and said: "You must show your strongest posture, otherwise Yuan Shao is likely to regret it. Our army must also make arrangements for this."

    Everyone expressed their opinions and perfected the ambush against the Allied forces.

    Under everyone¡¯s gaze, Liu Ke concluded: ¡°Now, the pillars and counselors of Yangzhou have paved the way for us. All generals should work together to defeat the invaders!¡±

    "No!" Lu Bu, Dian Wei and others said in unison.

    This time, Liu Ke organized the cavalry troops into two armies. One army had 20,000 men. Taishi Ci and Dian Wei commanded an army to attack the left wing; Lu Bu and Zhang He commanded an army to attack the right wing.

    Tieniu City was guarded by Hua Xiong and deployed a large number of crossbowmen.

    As for the remaining infantry, they formed a ballista phalanx and advanced slowly from the rear.

    The purpose of Liu Ke's arrangement was to allow the allies to escape from the left and right wings. In this way, he could take advantage of the cavalry and pursue them.

    One day later, the Allied forces arrived at Tieniu City and began to attack. Yuan Shao followed the plan and defended the direction of Dongyang City.

    However, at night, Yuan Shao quietly withdrew from the camp, and the Yangzhou army took advantage of it.

    At this moment, Yuan Shao's heart was extremely complicated, and he seemed unwilling to withdraw like this.

    ¡°Lord, if you gain something, you must lose something.¡± Guo Tu advised.

    "Hey, let's burn down the camp later. This will be an explanation to the Allies." Yuan Shao said.

    The Jizhou troops quickly retreated ten miles away, and Gao Shun led the 10,000-strong camp to guard against them.

    Actually, Gao Shun was scolding his mother all the time in his heart. He felt aggrieved that he couldn't catch up with such a big battle after finally going out.

    However, the task of defending Yuan Shao is also a top priority. It is impossible for Liu Ke to allocate too many troops, so he can only give in to Gao Shun.

    Gao Shun was still very efficient, and he informed Liu Ke of Yuan Shao's request within a short time.

    This request made Liu Ke very speechless. If he burned down the camp now, wouldn't he tell the Allies that something had changed behind him?

    Yuan Shao was planning to withdraw from the alliance, but he actually planned to build a chastity arch.

    If Yuan Shao firmly stands on Liu Ke's side, Liu Ke may still look down on him, but forget it now.

    "The battle begins again." Liu Ke ordered.

    Although it was a bit perfunctory, it at least took care of Yuan Shao's face.

    During the day, Liu Bei continued to attack the city step by step.

    The situation is not going well. Tieniu City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is built directly on the mountainside.  Liu Beijun had already suffered heavy losses before he even saw Tieniu City.

    ??The crossbows and bows and arrows are pouring down as if they are free, and no one can bear it.

    "Tell me, is Yuan Benchu ??joking this time or is he serious?" Liu Bei asked Gongsun Zan.

    In order to prevent Yuan Shao from retreating, the two of them spent a lot of money. In just one day of attacking the city, they lost thousands of troops.

    "Whatever, Tieniu City is not easy to attack. It's just a waste of effort now, why not retreat tomorrow." Gongsun Zan suddenly retreated.

    Liu Bei had a dark face and it was hard for him to answer such a question.  Why are you still thinking about retreating at this time?  Wouldn't it be nice if we all worked together?

    An hour later, Zhang Fei returned to camp cursing. It seemed that this attack was still not going well.

    "He nnd, this kind of siege battle, it is better to go directly to the Yangzhou Army for a decisive battle, everyone spreads out their formations, and fights to the death, how refreshing it is!"

    Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan looked at each other and saw each other's helplessness.

    Zhang Fei opened the curtain and reported the attack to Liu Bei. The Yangzhou Army suffered about twenty or thirty casualties, and their losses were as high as a thousand people.

    "Is Yuan Benchu ??trying to trick us?" Gongsun Zan asked in shock and doubt.

    "We might as well send someone to invite Yuan Benchu ??over, and we can attack the city together," Liu Bei said.

    Gongsun Zan agreed to this matter.

    Then the envoy rushed towards Yuan Shao's camp. Yuan Shao did not see it, but he saw the neat Yangzhou army formation.

    Nearly 100,000 troops.

    Moreover, the Yangzhou army pushed thousands of ballista carts forward slowly, which frightened the envoy into silence and quicklyGo and report the military situation.

    Why is there a large Yangzhou army behind you?

    Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan immediately thought of Yuan Shao. Could this guy have rebelled?

    "Damn Yuan Benchu! He actually framed us!" Gongsun Zan said angrily.

    At this time, they also had their own camp at the foot of Niujiao Mountain, but compared with the defensive camp they had worked so hard to build before, this place was just a little brother.

    "For the current plan, it is better to break out of the encirclement as soon as possible." Liu Bei said with a clear head.

    Gongsun Zan nodded and immediately ordered his troops to prepare for a breakout.  We have not yet reached the end of the road. The Yangzhou army only has 100,000 troops, and they have a total of 200,000.

    How could it be possible to be surrounded?

    The only one we need to worry about is Yuan Shao.  This guy has hundreds of thousands of troops and is a decisive force no matter which way he swings.

    So while Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were preparing to break out, they sent envoys to Yuan Shao to give in and ask for help.

    No matter what Yuan Shao asked, he agreed.

    It¡¯s really God¡¯s will. Originally, the North Route Allied Forces were still actively attacking, but now they are preparing to escape.

    After this battle, will the conflict-ridden Allies still exist?

    Both sides are preparing nervously, and the war is about to break out.

    Even Yuan Shao didn't stop and kept sending scouts to keep an eye on this battle.

    When Liu Bei¡¯s envoy came to his door, Yuan Shao asked Guo Tu to entertain him with delicious food and drinks.

    The envoy kept urging Yuan Shao to send troops, but Guo Tu smiled bitterly and said: "Our army was attacked by Yangzhou at night, and now it is like a lost dog, unable to catch it."

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Is to shirk them in every possible way.

    The envoy is not stupid, how could he not know what Yuan Shao is planning?

    If the camp was really attacked, how could you still stay here?  He clearly wanted to wait until the situation became clear before getting involved.

    If Liu Ke showed fatigue in the decisive battle, Yuan Shao would definitely not be polite.

    "Isn't it possible that Duke Yuan is afraid that after the victory of the Yangzhou army, he will swallow up the Jizhou soldiers and horses?" the envoy asked.

    Guo Tu smiled and said nothing. Their deal with Yangzhou was written in black and white. Dongyang Hou cherished his wings, how could he regret it?

    No matter what the outcome of both sides is, Yuan Shao is invincible, so Guo Tu is not panic at all.

    "In that case, please let Master Guo let me go back." The messenger said.

    "The envoy has come a long way, so why not stay a little longer? It would be dangerous to go back now." Guo Tu said.

    Your sister is far away, it¡¯s only more than twenty miles away, right?  This is obviously house arrest in disguise

    But Guo Tu is right, how dangerous is it to go back?

    Liu Bei knew something was wrong when he saw that none of the large number of envoys he had sent came back.

    Now, he and Gongsun Zan can only face the terrible enemy of Dongyang Hou.

    "Our goal is to break through!" Liu Bei reminded.

    Preserving strength is fundamental. As for fighting to the death, there is no benefit at all!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
