Although Yuan Xi is the governor of Youzhou, Yuan Tan, as the "Prince", has an unshirkable responsibility.

Yuan Shao didn't like this son very much...

Moreover, Guo Tu paid a huge price for this position of chief executive, which was to allow Shen Pei and Feng Ji to take over the two northern and southern battalions originally commanded by Yan Liangwen and Chou.

A full two hundred thousand horses!

Although Yuan Shao mobilized more than half of his troops to support Yanzhou, Guo Tu gave up all the troops in Jizhou.

Judgment and Fengji belong to Yuan Shang.

The current situation in Jizhou is that Yuan Tan is in charge of political affairs and Yuan Shang is in charge of military power.

Yuan Shao was impartial.

However, Guo Tu and others believed that Yuan Shao was in good health and there were too many taboos about taking military power, so they won such a good position for Yuan Tan, so that he could make friends with officials in Jizhou.

"Brother, it's all because the Yangzhou army is too cunning, let Gongsun Kang come forward to confuse me, and won't retreat after taking money!" Yuan Xi said.

"Okay, there's no need to explain!" Yuan Tan said irritably.

Yuan Xi was very upset in his heart, no matter what, I'm also your younger brother, it's fine if you don't comfort me, but you still yell at me!

Besides, Youzhou fell, can he be blamed?

He has only [-] troops!

The enemy is... tens of thousands!

Yuan Tan looked at his brother who was not up to date, but couldn't say anything to reproach him, so he just waved his hand and let Yuan Xi go down.

"Go, invite Gong Ze." Yuan Tan said to Qin Wei.

In this situation, we can only ask Guo Tu for advice.

One inadvertent move, the whole game will be lost, Yuan Tan dare not be careless.

Guo Tu came in a hurry. In order to assist Yuan Tan, he did not follow Yuan Shao.

"Young master, why are you in such a hurry?"

Yuan Tan recounted it again, feeling helpless the whole time.

Guo Tu's face turned gloomy for a moment, and he suggested: "Now Jizhou has insufficient troops, [-] regular troops are in the hands of Yuan Shang, and we only have [-] defenders. With this kind of strength, it is not enough to defend all parts of Jizhou. city."

"Shrinking the line of defense?" Yuan Tan was not very proficient in military affairs.

"Yes, the young master will immediately send someone to inform the lord." Guo Tu said.

Yuan Tan hesitated to speak.

"My lord, now is not the time to be impulsive. I can't hide such a big matter from my lord. Yuan Shang's people will definitely report this matter, so we might as well polish it up. After all, Yuan Xi is most responsible for the crime." Guo Tudao.

Yuan Tan suddenly understood that Yuan Xi was going to take the blame!

Of course, Yuan Tan didn't need to do it himself, he just ordered a civil servant to do it.

"The next step is the key." Guo Tu said solemnly, "Until the lord comes back, Jizhou must not lose."

"What should I do?" Yuan Tan asked eagerly.

"The young master can directly order Yuan Shang to lead one of the two battalions in the north and the south to defend against the Yangzhou army in the north." Guo Tu said schemingly.

"The strength of a battalion is only more than [-], how can it withstand hundreds of thousands?" Yuan Tan said.

As for why the other battalion was not mobilized, of course it was because it had to defend the direction of Qingzhou.

Although Qingzhou has no main battle corps, it has [-] defenders, which should not be underestimated.

"This is none of our business. After all, the military power is in the hands of Mr. Yuan Shang. If he loses, he is responsible. If he wins, the young master has merit in defending the land." Guo Tu said earnestly.

"Okay, let's do it like this!" Yuan Tan finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least he had a plan to deal with it.

As for whether Yuan Shang would accept such an order, it was out of Yuan Tan's consideration.

If Yuan Shang dared to disobey his orders, he would throw a cauldron directly on his head.

"Young master, we can't relax yet. We should gather the strong men in the city and form a temporary militia to prepare for emergencies." Guo Tu said.

To put it simply, it is to catch the strong men.

"Okay." Yuan Tan agreed and ordered his subordinates to start the matter.

With Guo Tu's help, Yuan Tan's response became organized.

But when Yuan Xi came out of the government, he was anxious and uneasy. He could see Yuan Tan's expression clearly. He didn't want to be a villain, so he found Yuan Shang.

Compared with Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are closer.

"Brother, this time, you must help me!" Yuan Xi shouted kindly, a little coquettish.

With Yuan Tan, he was a younger brother, but with Yuan Shang, he became an older brother.

After hearing the cause and effect, Yuan Shang knew that there was no escape from this catastrophe, and quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, brother, I will write to my father right now."

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shang began to write vigorously, and showed Yuan Xi to read it after he finished.

Because some confessions have to be matched.
