"Jizhou is fertile and wild, and Yuan Shao dominates Jizhou. There are many soldiers and generals, and there are many talented people under his tent. Tian Feng, Jushou, Xu You, Guo Tu, Pang Ji, Shenpei, Xin Ping and others made suggestions for him. Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Ying, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong, etc. are their minions, and their strength is far superior to Cao Cao. Judging from the current strength of our army, it is still difficult to deal with Cao Cao, let alone Yuan Shao. Since Yuan Shao intends to be in Qingzhou , then give him Qingzhou, as long as the lord rescues Kong Beihai from danger, there is no need to be an enemy of Yuan Shao." Zhang Hong said slowly.

After Zhang Yan heard this, his brows were tightly frowned. Zhang Hong's words were true. Judging from the current situation, Yuan Shao was undoubtedly the most powerful among the heroes.At this stage, his foundation is not strong enough to fight against Yuan Shao. As long as he is given another two years, he will definitely be able to create an invincible army. By then, no matter what Cao Cao or Yuan Shao is, Everything must surrender at his feet.

Seeing Zhang Yan's thoughtful look, Zhang Hong continued, "However, my lord, don't worry too much. After Yuan Shao occupies Qingzhou, he will definitely stop in Qingzhou and spy on the Central Plains. After all, there are still people behind him. A Gongsun Zan who gave him a headache. Gongsun Zan occupies Youzhou, and his army is extremely powerful. If Yuan Shao does not eliminate Gongsun Zan and solve his worries, he will definitely not go south. At least, within three years, Yuan Shao will not set foot in the Central Plains, and our army, too. You can use these three years to concentrate on development.”

Zhang Yan nodded again and again, feeling that there was nothing wrong with what Zhang Hong said, but his point of view was not the same.He said to Zhang Hong: "Sir, what you said is correct, but I don't agree with you. Although Yuan Shao is strong, he has never dared to go south easily. What is the reason? Isn't it because Gongsun Zan is behind him?" Are you keeping him in check? Yuan Shao came to take Qingzhou this time. If our army hands over Qingzhou to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will definitely use the power of the two states to deal with Gongsun Zan with all his strength. This is equivalent to our army secretly helping Yuan Shao to eliminate Gongsun Zan. If our army competes with Yuan Shao in Qingzhou, Yuan Shao will firstly have to guard against Gongsun Zan, and secondly, he will have to fight against our army. If we work together, we will definitely be able to drive Yuan Shao out of Qingzhou. If our army occupies Qingzhou, it will undoubtedly be even more powerful. And with the majestic appearance of Qingzhou and Xuzhou, our army can aspire to the Central Plains."

Zhang Hong heard Zhang Yan's inner thoughts, and then realized that Zhang Yan did not send troops to Qingzhou to rescue Kong Rong, but to take advantage of the situation to occupy Qingzhou.He said slowly: "My lord, I understand what the lord means. Since the lord has the idea of ​​occupying Qingzhou, then Zigang should spare no effort to advise the lord!"

Seeing that Zhang Hong understood what he was thinking, Zhang Yan cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Lao."

At the same time, in Yuan Jun's big tent, Yuan Tan gathered civil and military personnel and was discussing countermeasures, how to deal with the Xuzhou soldiers who had just arrived.

The sudden arrival of Xuzhou soldiers greatly surprised Yuan Tan and others. What surprised them even more was that the armor of Xuzhou soldiers was so good that arrows couldn't pierce them, and even knives, knives, and spears couldn't pierce them. There was no damage at all, so that Zhuxu City was about to be captured today, but it failed in the end.

Yuan Tan looked around all the people in the tent with a sad face, and asked: "Everyone, do you have any good strategies to deal with Xuzhou soldiers?"

Guo Tudao: "Since Xuzhou soldiers came to save Kong Rong, why don't you write a letter and let people shoot into the city, tell Xuzhou soldiers to take Kong Rong away, if you insist on staying here, you will be with him." Our army is the enemy."

Yuan Tan asked: "What if Xuzhou soldiers are still unwilling to retreat?"

Guo Tudao: "Then don't blame our army for being rude. The Xuzhou soldiers are just relying on the strength of their armor, so there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as they use clever tricks, they will naturally be able to defeat the Xuzhou soldiers."

Xu You, who was standing beside Guo Tu, suddenly said: "Xuzhou's soldiers are all wearing heavy armor, but they move very slowly. Although our army's arrows, knives and guns can't hurt them, it doesn't mean that our army can't deal with them." They. The heavy armor on them is like a tortoise shell, since our weapons can't damage the heavy armor, let's use external force!"

"External force? What external force?" Yuan Tan asked.

Xu You smiled, raised his hand and pointed at a ball of flames in the big tent, and said loudly: "Attack with fire! Burn them to death!"

Guo Tu sneered and said, "Attack with fire? It's not easy! Those Xuzhou soldiers are not fools, why would they stand there and let you set fire to them?"

Xu You said: "So, we need to use a clever strategy! Tomorrow our army will just go to attack the city, and the Xuzhou soldiers will definitely go out to fight. At that time, after a short battle with them, our army will feign defeat and flee, luring the Xuzhou soldiers to pursue them. They lead to the pre-arranged ambush circle, and then set fire to them together."

Guo Tudao: "It's easy to say, but hard to do. What if those Xuzhou soldiers are not fooled?"

Xu You said: "If you want to take it, you have to give it first. There is also something particular about luring the enemy. The key is to see if you can really convince the enemy when you lure the enemy. Pretentious. Therefore, our army needs a group of daredevils and use them as bait to lure the enemy into the ambush circle."

Yuan Tan thought for a moment, and immediately said: "Okay, it's settled like this, and I will use Junshi Xu's strategy. Yan Liang, I will leave it to you to select the men who dare to die."

"Here!"

On the next day in Pingming, Yuan Jun, led by Yuan Tan, came to Zhuxu City. Zhang Yan led the army out, and the heavy cavalry and heavy infantry were lined up neatly under the city.

Yuan Tan rode on a green chestnut horse, wearing a cooked bronze helmet and iron armor. Behind him, Guo Tu, Xu You, Yan Liang and others lined up, and Yuan Jun's soldiers were also lined up, divided into groups one after another. The phalanx, staring at each other.

On the tower of Zhuxu City, Kong Rong, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei stood there watching the battle.

There was a chilling air in the world, Yuan Tan turned his face and whispered a word to Yan Liang behind him, Yan Liang nodded, rode out, clapped his horse and wielded his sword, and came directly to the front of the team.

Yan Liang swung his saber straight away, stood in front of the army formation, glanced at the Xuzhou soldiers on the opposite side, and shouted loudly: "I am Yan Liang, the general of Jizhou Muzhang, who dares to fight to the death with me!"

The sound was like thunder, rolling into my ears.

Zhang Yan looked at Yan Liang carefully, but he saw that Yan Liang was tall and muscular, with a long horse face under the iron helmet, aggressive light in his eyes, a huge square mouth, and a blue beard hanging on his jaw. , hanging down to his chest, with a strong killing intent all over his body, looking majestic.

Behind Zhang Yan, the two generals Tai Shici and Xu Chu couldn't bear it anymore, they all held the weapons in their hands tightly, and the horses sitting under them were even more restless and eager to try.

Zhang Hong said to Zhang Yan: "Yan Liang is a fierce general under Yuan Shao's command. He is brave enough to win the three armies. He has a bravery that is unworthy of all men. You must not underestimate it."

Zhang Yan nodded, his eyes were scanning the layout of Yuan Jun's army formation on the opposite side, but he saw that the soldiers behind Yan Liang were all tall, burly and strong soldiers, while in the rest of the army formation, there were few such soldiers. It can be seen that Yan Liang Those who lead are the elite of the army.

Seeing that there was no one answering from the other side, Yan Liang yelled again: "You cowardly bastards, quickly come to Grandpa to lead you to death!"

As soon as the words fell, Tai Shici behind Zhang Yan immediately clasped his fists and said: "My lord, this person is arrogant, please allow me to fight and cut off the dog's head!"

Xu Chu also cupped his fists and said, "My lord, I'd like to go too!"

Zhang Yandao: "You must have heard what the military adviser said just now. Yan Liang is not someone who is waiting for you. You must not underestimate him."

"My lord, don't worry, we will never take it lightly." Tai Shici and Xu Chu said in unison.

Zhang Yan was silent for a moment, then said: "Ziyi, you go to meet Yan Liang first!"

"Here!"

Tai Shici received the order, and immediately rode out with his spear, and his whole body flew towards Yan Liang like an arrow flying off the string, and shouted: "Son Yan Liang, Hugh is so crazy, your grandpa Tai Shici is so special!" Come get your dog's head!"

Yan Liang sneered, and without answering, he raised the big knife in his hand, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and galloped out with a sound of "drive".

Tai Shici and Yan Liang walked toward each other, and the two horses ran fast, and they met together in an instant, and the two of them raised their swords and spears at the same time, and immediately started a fight.

With a buzzing sound of "Zheng", the swords and guns collided with each other. Both of them exerted their full strength, the blades met, sparks flew everywhere, and at the same time, their hands were slightly numb from the shock.

The two fought for a round, and neither of them had anything to do, and they were evenly matched.

After parting in an instant, Yan Liang and Tai Shici both secretly admired each other. As soon as one side ran out, the other side immediately grabbed the horse, turned the horse's head, and hedged again.

The two horses met, swords and guns clashed, Tai Shici and Yan Liang were full of fighting spirit and refused to give in to each other. They fought for more than ten rounds in a row, but the outcome was not decided.

The battle between the two was very fierce, and it also attracted everyone's attention. In Yuan Jun's camp, from Yuan Tan down, no one thought that there would be such a strong general under Zhang Yan's camp.

And Zhang Fei, who was watching the battle on the tower of Zhuxu City, was also completely attracted by this fierce fight, and they all geared up for it.

Guan Yu, who was beside Zhang Fei, always narrowed his Danfeng eyes into a slit, looking at Yan Liang with a trace of disdain.He stroked his long beard lightly, and said slowly: "Yan Liang, that's all it is!"

Xu Chu, who was behind Zhang Yan, was already full of excitement, and his horses were restless all the time.

When Yan Liang and Tai Shi Ci were in full swing, Kong Rong on the tower suddenly shouted: "Mr. Zhang, Yuan Jun has come in from the west gate, please support quickly!"

Hearing this shout, Zhang Yan said to Xu Sheng calmly: "Lead the troops to the city to support, shoot and kill!"

"Here!" Xu Sheng received the order, and led [-] heavy infantry into the city. Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, who were watching the battle on the tower, also went down from the tower one after another, and led the old troops to the west gate to kill the enemy. .

In Yuan Jun's camp, Xu You saw the movement of Xuzhou soldiers, and immediately said to Yuan Tan: "My lord, you can act now!"

Yuan Tan nodded, and immediately asked the flag bearer behind him to raise the red flag.Not long after the red flag was raised, a wave of Yuan Jun, led by Zhang Yun, came from the left.On the right side, under the leadership of Han Meng, Yuan Jun charged over.

At the same time, the soldiers behind Yan Liang also launched an attack on Zhu Xucheng.

Yuan Jun's momentum was huge, rushing towards Zhu Xucheng together like a rolling flood.

Seeing Yuan Jun's menacing approach, Zhang Yan immediately formed a formation, surrounded by infantry and surrounded by cavalry, forming a steel wall, lined with long spears, ready to meet the enemy at all times.
