Agents of the Three Kingdoms

"Urgent report, urgent report! Get out of the way, don't get in the way, I have news to report to the prefect!"

A cavalryman rushed forward, roaring loudly while riding his horse.As he rushed all the way, the people on the road gave way one after another, and the gatekeeper at the city gate didn't dare to stop him, allowing the cavalry to rush in.

With the sound of horseshoes, the cavalry went straight to the prefect's mansion.

Running all the way, the cavalry stopped at the gate of the prefect's mansion.

He got off his horse and hurried to the gate. After seeing the soldiers standing guard, he immediately revealed his identity.Then, the soldiers flew into the prefect's mansion.He ran wildly all the way without even having time to catch his breath. When he came to the gate, he suddenly heard bursts of laughter coming from the hall. In an instant, the soldier froze, because there were laughter, toasts and other words in the hall.

Obviously, Yuan Shao was entertaining the officials under his command.

The soldiers on the front line were desperate, and there were constant banquets in the rear.

In fact, it was because Yuan Shao received the news from Fengji, he knew that Gao Lan used tricks to defeat Tai Shici and won, and he was extremely excited.Up to now, people under Yuan Shao's command have never won a battle with Wang Lei.

This time, he finally won for the first time.

This feeling can be imagined.

Yuan Shao felt elated. He even felt that he underestimated Gao Lan and Feng Ji, so he should give them enough attention.For this reason, Yuan Shao made a decision in his heart, and when the two came back, they must celebrate their achievements.In addition to this, the two of them will also be promoted to nobles, so that they can show their strengths and become the pillar talents under his command.

The current banquet is not the first time Yuan Shao has held it.

For the past few days, Yuan Shao has hosted banquets for his officials at the prefect's mansion to celebrate Gao Lan's victory.At this moment, Yuan Shao was holding the wine bottle in his hand, with a deep smile on his face, and he was chatting with the officials under his command about the future situation.While Yuan Shao was talking, a soldier hurried in.

At this moment, Yuan Shao was furious.

Didn't you hear him talking?

Yuan Shao frowned, and shouted loudly: "Bastard, rushed in without reporting, get out!"

"Sir, I..."

As soon as the soldier opened his mouth, Yuan Shao interrupted him.

"Get out, didn't you hear me?" The cold voice made the soldier shiver.The soldiers ran all the way back from the front line to report the news, and Yuan Shao's scolding made the soldiers feel aggrieved.

The battle situation was defeated, but Yuan Shao was still in the mood to chat.

"thump!"

The soldier knelt down aggrieved and said loudly, "My lord, the frontline army has been defeated."

"Peng!"

Yuan Shao opened his mouth wide, distracted, the wine bottle in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the wine spilled all over the floor.Yuan Shao stared at the soldiers, and it took him a while to recover, and asked: "What did you say, say it again?"

The soldier replied: "The army at the front is defeated!"

"What's going on? Gao Lan just sent back a message saying that he won, how could he fail? What's going on?"

Yuan Shao was flustered, and a trace of panic appeared in his eyes.

Once the [-] army led by Gao Lan is defeated, it means that the last line of defense in Nanpi County will collapse.For Yuan Shao, this was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

For Wang Lei, it was easy to kill Nanpi County.

The situation changed suddenly, and Yuan Shao's surprise can be imagined.

The soldier replied truthfully: "Yesterday morning, General Gao led his army to attack Wang Lei's camp, but was defeated by Wang Lei's tricks, and the [-] troops were wiped out. Now, the whereabouts of General Gao and General Wen are unknown, and their lives and deaths are uncertain. There is even more news from Wang Lei's camp. Mr. Fengji was arrested, and because Mr. Fengji would rather die than surrender, he has been beheaded."

"what!!!!"

Roaring with all its strength, came out in the hall.

Yuan Shao roared loudly, his eyes were fierce, and his face was even more ferocious.

Xu You looked calm and asked, "What's the matter? General Gao Lan has always been cautious in leading troops in battle. After he led the army to station, he had no chance of winning and could not attack. What's the matter? Speak clearly."

The soldier had no choice but to explain in detail, saying: "The thing is like this. There was continuous heavy rain in the past few days, and neither side fought. At this time, the general got the news that Wang Lei,... The general saw the hope of winning, so he led the army. After attacking, when we arrived at Wang Lei's camp, we found out that it had been tricked, and the army was flooded."

After the soldier finished speaking, Xu You looked up to the sky and sighed, and had no choice but to sigh.

This battle was not wronged.

Gao Lan has always been cautious when marching, and the opponent has already figured out Gao Lan's character, so he deliberately let Gao Lan see a chance to win, and let Gao Lan take the initiative to attack.Not only that, but the other party even analyzed clearly which attack method Gao Lanhui chose. This kind of scheming is quite powerful, and the degree of grasp of psychology has reached the point of perfection.

Reminiscent of the last time Guo Tu's strategy was cracked, Xu You frowned even more.

Under Wang Lei's command, there must be a peerless mastermind.

Xu You felt reconciled that a ruffian like Wang Lei could have such a top-notch mastermind, while Yuan Shao, who came from a famous family with a prominent background, didn't have one. It's so unfair!

One Yuan Shao in Jizhou is enough, why do we need one more Wang Lei?

Xu You had countless thoughts in his mind, and finally returned to reality.

Sighing helplessly, Xu You said: "My lord, the front line has been defeated, and no further delay is allowed. If you continue to stay in Nanpi County, your lord will be in danger after Wang Lei's army arrives. In the current situation, we must withdraw In Nanpi County, avoid Wang Lei's sharp edge temporarily, and wait for the army from all counties to return and encircle Wang Lei before launching an attack."

Guo Tu nodded with a look of rejoicing and said, "Fortunately, my lord has already transferred back the army of Zhongshan Kingdom and Wei County, otherwise even if we evacuate Nanpi County, it will be difficult to resist."

The rest of the generals also nodded after hearing the words.

Yuan Shao looked at the people present and sighed in his heart, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness for the first time.Ever since Yuan Shao arrived in Bohai County, Yuan Shao has been confronting Wang Lei constantly. Every time they confront each other, the beginning is very smooth, but the final result is that Wang Lei wins.Even so, Yuan Shao did not give up the hope of capturing Jizhou, and he did not think that Wang Lei would be sure of him.

In his bones, Yuan Shao has strong self-confidence.

However, Gao Lan was defeated and Yuan Shao had to evacuate Nanpi County, but this news made it difficult for Yuan Shao to accept.It is a great shame for Yuan Shao that his base camp is about to be captured by Wang Lei.

In my heart, endless frustration rose.

Xu You persuaded again: "My lord, time is running out, please make a decision quickly. If the lord decides to stick to Nanpi County, Xu You will follow to the death and resist the lord to the end. If the lord retreats, Xu You will also follow to the death. In this battle, the army under the lord's command has suffered heavy losses, and to recruit soldiers again, Xu You is willing to spend all his wealth to help the lord recruit soldiers and horses, so as to fight Wang Lei again."

Yuan Shao's body trembled slightly, and he looked at Xu You with deep gratitude.

Xu You smiled slightly and cast a firm gaze.

At this moment, the gap between the two quietly disappeared.

Yuan Shao stood up, with a firm expression, and said loudly: "Wang Lei wants to occupy Nanpi County, well, let him do it. As long as I, Yuan Shao, are still alive, there is nothing to be afraid of. Withdraw, let's withdraw from Nanpi County, let Wang Lei be arrogant for a while time."

Yuan Shao regained his energy, and the officials were also high-spirited.

Even if the group of people wanted to evacuate Nanpi County, they still had the courage to fight again.Many officials wanted to imitate Xu You and spend all their wealth to support Yuan Shao.
