When Yuan Shao woke up quietly, his three sons were still with him.
"Heaven is going to destroy my Yuan family!" Yuan Shao sighed.
"Father!" The three of them knelt down at the same time.
This time, Yuan Shao did not blame them, but his eyes were filled with disappointment.
"We agreed to proceed step by step, and don't fall into the trap of Dongyang Hou.
But as soon as he led his troops out, he let himself go without any basic vigilance.
Now that things have come to this, what can Yuan Shao say?
"Father, please report from the front line that Dongyang Marquis has surrounded Guangzong. Please ask father to send reinforcements!" Yuan Shangdao said.
"Reinforcements? Do you know how many troops there are in Yecheng?" Yuan Shao asked.
"This" Yuan Shang was not unclear, but from Yuan Shao's tone, it seemed that he had no intention of rescuing.
Before the incident, Yecheng¡¯s military strength was approximately 350,000.
Yuan Xi brought out an army of 100,000, but only 20,000 came back. Yuan Tan brought out an army of 50,000, but only a few hundred came back.
In other words, the two brothers lost 130,000 people.
In addition, Guangzong stationed an army of 50,000 people, and Yecheng's military strength at this moment was less than 200,000.
Of course, if Tadun¡¯s army is included, the number will be doubled.
"However, aliens can take advantage of them and should not be trusted.
Therefore, Yuan Shao does not have much power left.
Why send reinforcements?
The significance of sticking to Guangzong is to serve as a warning to Yecheng, and it has been done now.
No matter how many troops are sent out, they will only give heads to Dongyang Marquis.
The Yangzhou Army's resumption of attack has made Yuan Shao realize that nothing happened to Liu Ke.
It¡¯s all a calculation!
A conspiracy will cost Yuan Shao hundreds of thousands of troops.
What a heavy blow!
Yuan Shao was in so much pain that even the chance of a comeback was slim.
The most painful thing is the army that sticks to Guangzong. The reinforcements they had been waiting for did not arrive. Instead, the Yangzhou Army continued to increase its troops.
"Lord, I am willing to be a vanguard and work hard to capture Guangzong." Lu Bu said.
"There's no rush, now is not the time." Liu Kedao said.
Lu Bu wanted to say something else, but Guo Jia stood up and explained on his behalf: "My lord is fishing. He is besieging Guangzong but not attacking. Let's see if Yuan Shao will send reinforcements."
"I see, then let them live a few more days." Lu Bu said.
Three days later, there was no movement in Yecheng.
Liu Ke couldn't help but admire that Yuan Shao could remain calm and let Guangzong's 50,000-strong army become victims.
Before attacking the city, Liu Ke decided to try to persuade the defenders to surrender.
In order to show his sincerity, he came to the city in person and said: "I am the Marquis of Dongyang. Let your guard come out and speak."
The defenders on the city wall were whispering to each other and discussing, all telling each other about Liu Ke's deeds.
"Why is it so noisy?" Shen Pei frowned.
"My lord, Dongyang Hou is shouting from the city!" a corps commander replied.
The judge looked solemn, and when he looked down, he saw the handsome Liu Ke.
"Dongyang Hou, if you don't attack the city, why are you here to reminisce about the past?"
"Isn't it good to reminisce about the past? Why fight and kill each other as soon as we meet." Liu Ke asked rhetorically.
Shen Pei smiled and said: "Isn't the Marquis of Dongyang here to recruit you? You are in the wrong place!"
Of course Liu Ke knew that he could not impress the defenders with just a few words, so he asked: "Who are you?"
"I forgot to introduce you. I am Shen Zhengnan. He is just a nobody. I'm afraid the Marquis of Dongyang has never heard of him," Shen Pei said.
"If Duke Shen is a nobody, I'm afraid no one in Hebei can be called a celebrity." Liu Kedao.
Shen Pei couldn't help but smile. He admired Liu Ke very much. How much admiration does one have? A villain reported to Shen Pei that he would go south to seek refuge with Liu Ke.
Yuan Shao actually believed it. If Feng Ji hadn't said something nice, I'm afraid the matchmaking process would have come to an end.
Therefore, Shen Pei was very happy to be recognized by Liu Ke, but he did not forget his responsibilities.
"Why did Marquis Dongyang come here?"
"Persuade to surrender!" Liu Ke said straightforwardly.
"Everyone says that the Marquis of Dongyang is bold and generous, but now I see that he is indeed well-deserved. Why should I surrender?" Shen Pei said.
The battle hasn¡¯t started yet!
Liu Ke was not in a hurry, and said slowly and calmly: "I used Guangzong as bait, but I didn't expect that Yuan Shao wouldn't be fooled, and not a single reinforcement was sent."
The judge was a little disappointed, but he still said:
"My lord is wise and powerful, and of course he has seen through your conspiracy."
"Without reinforcements and facing an attack of 600,000 troops, how long does Shen Gong think he can hold on?" Liu Kedao.
The judge has been silent for half a month? Maybe less than seven days.
"One month! I will stick to Guangzong for one month!" Shen Pei said loudly.
"Okay, since the judge is so confident, I won't be polite." Liu Kedao.
Shen Pei felt nervous, fearing that Liu Ke would say something about massacre of the city, but the next second, Liu Ke's tone changed:
"As long as everyone in Guangzong surrenders, our army will not set foot in Wei County within two months. Duke Shen can gain two months without wasting the lives of his men. What do you think?"
The judges couldn¡¯t help but applaud!
Dongyang Hou is not only brave in battle, but also knowledgeable and talented.
Since the war was launched in Yangzhou until now, I don¡¯t know how many strategies have been used, and the Allies have fallen apart as a result.
The only think tank who can control Yangzhou is a hero like Dongyang Hou!
Shen Pei was moved, but he couldn't just think about himself. It was impossible to make a decision alone.
He couldn't help but look at Feng Ji aside.
I heard that after the Marquis of Dongyang came to the city to persuade him to surrender, how could Feng Ji not be there?
At this moment, Feng Ji sighed and said, "My lord treats us well, we can't let the Yuan family down!"
Shen Pei is a staunch person, and after listening to the advice of his friends, he finally made a decision.
"We understand Marquis Dongyang's kindness. We have different ideas, so let's rely on our ability to speak for ourselves."
Liu Ke had nothing to say about this. The two-month commitment had already delayed the progress of the Yangzhou Army.
Of course, Liu Ke can still propose more favorable conditions, but is it really worth it?
Everyone has their own value. Liu Ke appreciates the review, but the concept of friend and foe is still clear.
"My lord, this man doesn't know how to commend himself. In my opinion, it was the city wall that gave him courage. When we attack the city wall, this man will be honest." Lu Bu said.
Lu Bu could no longer contain his desire to attack the city.
"What's the rush? There are plenty of opportunities." Liu Kedao said.
The firmness of the judge made Liu Ke realize that although Jizhou was weak, it never lacked warriors.
This also proves the nature of the Han people. When there are no foreign enemies, they will fight to the death. Once the foreign enemies come, they will unite as one.
From the perspective of Jizhou, Liu Ke is an outsider.
In order to appease Jizhou, Liu Ke specially ordered Zhen Yao to go north.
Because what Liu Ke needs to consider now is not how to capture Jizhou, but how to rule it after capturing Jizhou.
As one of the representatives of the Hebei gentry, the Zhen family still has many connections.
By coincidence, Zhen Mi is Liu Ke¡¯s concubine. With this relationship, Liu Ke believes that it will not be difficult to integrate into Jizhou.
