    ¡°Everyone wants to make contributions, and Yuan Xi is no exception.

    The credit is clearly right in front of you, why not pick it up?

    With Tian Feng¡¯s support, Yuan Xi excitedly led his army into Leling County. He also did not encounter any trouble and easily captured the entire county.

    The credit goes directly to you.

    "Now, father can no longer ignore my existence." Yuan Xi said proudly.

    However, as soon as Yuan Xi entered Leling, the news reached Liu Ke's ears.

    The opportunity he had been waiting for finally arrived.

    Isn¡¯t the reason why you go to such great lengths to lure Yuan Shaojun out of Yecheng?

    Liu Ke grasped Yuan Shaojun's most fatal weakness.

    The Yuan Shao Group is divided into three major factions, the Nanyang faction, the Hebei faction, and the Ruying faction.

    ??Among them, the Nanyang faction is the veteran of Yuan Shao's army. They began to follow Yuan Shao before he became rich and made many contributions to Yuan Shao's victory over Jizhou.

    The representative figures are Xu You and Feng Ji.

    Feng Ji proposed using Gongsun Zan to attack Han Fu, but in fact he proposed that Han Fu and Yuan Shao jointly defend Jizhou. As a result, Yuan Shao succeeded in turning the enemy around.

    In other words, under Feng Ji¡¯s plan, Yuan Shao captured Jizhou.

    "Subsequently, there was another faction in Yuan Shao's camp, and that was the Ruying faction.

    These people were all subordinates of Han Fu. After Han Fu surrendered Jizhou, they all surrendered to Yuan Shao.

    And Han Fu is one of the representatives of the four major families in Yingchuan, and most of his subordinates are from Yingchuan, such as Chunyu Qiong, Guo Tu, Xun Chen, Xin Pi, Xin Ping, etc.

    After a long struggle, Yuan Shao stabilized the situation in Jizhou, and one of the factions played an important role.

    That is the Hebei faction. They are all local noble families in Jizhou, Youzhou and other places. They are very powerful. Representatives include Tian Feng, Jushou, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, etc.

    There are many factions within Yuan Shaojun, fighting endlessly and trying to undermine each other.  In the face of such a powerful threat as Liu Ke, of course they will unite.

    However, when the danger recedes, the factional fighting is exposed.

    Unfortunately, Yuan Shao did not realize the seriousness of the problem.  He acted as the mediator, and everyone really gave him face, and Yuan Shao's prestige was enough to suppress Jizhou.

    However, when it comes to heirs, Yuan Shao is a little indulgent.  He loved his younger son Yuan Shang the most and wanted his younger son to take over. For this, he made a lot of preparations.

    The first move was to kick Yuan Xi to Youzhou. If the territory hadn't been insufficient, Yuan Tan would have been kicked out as well.

    The Nanyang Party knew Yuan Shao best, so they all supported Yuan Shang.

    And Guo Tu, Xin Ping and other people who came from Yingchuan were at odds with Fengji. Han Fu's death had a lot to do with this old Yinbi.

    Once Yuan Shang succeeds to the throne, Fengji will have more power. Will they still be alive by then?

    Therefore, they all supported Yuan Tan and adopted the banner of "establishing the elder rather than the young".

    As for Yuan Xi, he was the key figure introduced by Yuan Shao to appease the people of Hebei, including marriage with the Zhen family of Hebei.

    If the Hebei faction doesn¡¯t support him, who else can they support?

    However, something unexpected happened later and the marriage failed, causing Yuan Xi to lose power.

    Speaking of which, this is still due to Liu Ke.

    The fighting between factions caused Yuan Shaojun's forces to disperse. Now that the crisis is over, everyone can no longer hold back.

    The first thing to do is to grab credit!

    Yuan Shang¡¯s contribution has been great enough, so he sits firmly on Diaoyutai.

    In order to regain Bohai, Yuan Tan traveled hundreds of miles a day, driving the soldiers like livestock, and finally conveyed the good news to Yuan Shao.

    Yuan Xi can¡¯t wait any longer. If he doesn¡¯t capture Leling, won¡¯t he be gossiping?

    There are 100,000 troops, doing nothing in Pingyuan County.

    I can¡¯t bear it!

    Yuan Xi captured Leling, creating the best opportunity for Liu Ke.

    "Lord, the army is ready." Zhao Yundao said.

    "Okay, the whole army attacks!" Liu Ke gave the order, and the 100,000 elites who had been prepared took the lead in crossing the river.

    After several trips back and forth, everyone is already familiar with crossing the river, and the efficiency is three points faster.

    The Jizhou scouts on the other side of the river took a deep breath when they saw the scene in front of them.

    The Marquis of Dongyang actually pretended to retreat!

    This news must be conveyed, otherwise Jizhou will be doomed.

    However, before the scout could leave quietly, Huang Zhong killed him with one arrow.

    ? ?But people have been arranged long ago and are lurking just for this moment.

    Huang Zhong cleared a total of five hidden sentries, which was all Yuan Xi deployed here, and none of them escaped.

    When Liu Ke landed, Huang Zhong was standing there, cupping his fists and saying:

    "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life!"

    "Thank you for your hard work, old general!" Liu Kedao said.

    Huang Zhong's action bought Liu Ke more than half a day.

    Scouts all have unique ways of contacting each other. For example, they send someone to report on the situation every two hours to ensure nothing goes wrong.

    Now Huang Zhong pulls out several hidden sentries with thunderous momentum, which will definitely alert other Jizhou scouts.

    Therefore, there is not much time left for Liu Ke.

    Liu Ke¡¯s first target is, of course, Yuan Xi¡¯s 100,000-strong army.

    Leling County is the closest to Qingzhou and is prone to surprise attacks.

    When all the 100,000 troops crossed the river, Liu Ke went straight to Leling County without stopping.

    But Yuan Xi was not prepared at all and even prepared a banquet in the military camp to celebrate the recapture of Leling County.

    That night, the Yangzhou army caught up with Yuan Xi's army, and under the command of Liu Ke, attacked Yuan Xi's camp.

    How could such a temporary camp resist the attack of the Yangzhou army? Lu Bu took the lead and broke open the gate of the camp. The cavalry rushed out, killing people and setting fires everywhere.

    Yuan Xi was halfway through drinking when he suddenly heard a shout of murder. He broke into a cold sweat and asked quickly: "What happened?"

    Jushou was also surprised and said: "Except for the ambush of Dongyang Hou, there is no other possibility."

    These words made Yuan Xi's face pale, because he followed the advice of Tian Feng and Ju Shou, and the army did not enter the city to disturb the people.

    Now it¡¯s fine, it was unexpectedly attacked by the Yangzhou Army!

    ¡°The top priority is to organize a large army to break out of the encirclement.¡± Tian Feng said wisely.

    "Breakout?" Yuan Xi knew what this meant, but he quickly agreed, "Breakout quickly!"

    Breaking out, simply put, means escaping.

    So, Yuan Xi launched a breakout without organizing any resistance.

    "After all, Tian Feng's judgment is not wrong. Dongyang Hou never does anything he is not sure about.

    "Where is Yuan Xi? Catch him! There will be rewards!" Lu Bu shouted. However, there was not even decent resistance in the military camp, so Lu Bu had no way to judge.

    Under normal circumstances, where there is strong resistance, the enemy's generals will be responsible for organizing it.

    After several battles, Lu Bu found that this place didn't look like a camp of 100,000 people at all.

    No beating at all!

    When he broke into the coach's camp, Lu Bu found that the food and wine were still warm, so he knew that Yuan Xi had run away, and he ran away in a hurry.

    "Damn it!" Lu Bu overturned the table in anger, and then reported to Liu Ke.

    "Chase! Capture the main characters alive." Liu Ke ordered.

    So Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Tai Shi Ci and other generals led their troops out to pursue them.

    He looked like he would not give up until Yuan Xi was caught.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
