Xu You was also at a loss at this time.

Unlike other strategists under Yuan Shao's command, he escaped from Yecheng early.

He had been locked in the dungeon all the time, and Liu Yi had entered the city, and he knew that Yuan Shao was completely defeated.

So he bribed the jailer and let him go out. He wanted to escape from Yecheng as soon as possible, but was caught by the soldiers of Youzhou who had begun to garrison at Simen.

So, he once again appeared in front of Liu Yi's eyes.

"What King Yan said was true. Yuan Benchu ​​couldn't know people. Xu You was wrong."

"Hahaha, then now you are willing to surrender to this king."

"King Yan is now sitting on Jizhou, looking at the world, and he is the leader of the heroes. Xu You is willing to surrender."

Liu Yi laughed a few times and patted Xu You on the shoulder.

Although Xu You was flattering, he was right.

Liu Yi has now occupied Yecheng, and the entire Jizhou has been captured by Liu Yi.

Jizhou is the largest state in the world, with a population of [-] million, more than twice that of Youzhou! Moreover, Jizhou has a huge city, Yecheng, and the people in the state are prosperous and rich in products.

If it weren't for the restraints of the gentry, Yuan Shao's mansion would be empty, and it would not be impossible to recruit hundreds of thousands of troops.

With Jizhou, Liu Yi has two major prefectures, Jizhou and Youzhou, plus half of Bingzhou, with a population of tens of millions and hundreds of cities.

Throughout the world, only Cao Cao in the Central Plains can compete with himself.

"According to the year, it will be almost AD 2 soon. This king and Cao Cao will have a battle sooner or later."

Liu Yi sighed, he didn't expect that he would be the next person so quickly.

As long as Cao Cao is defeated, the world will be at hand.

In the southern part of Bingzhou, Shangdang City, the army general Xiahou Yuan had already surrounded Shangdang City.

Xiahou Yuan was the most swift general in the world, commanding his troops in a hurry, capable of five hundred for three days and one thousand for six days.

To know that it is not very common, it is not bad to travel fifty miles a day.

When Cao Cao sent Xiahou Yuan to attack Shangdang, he naturally had the idea that he could escape at any time regardless of whether he succeeded or not.

"Kongming, what happened to the people's migration?"

"Returning to General, most of the population of a district in Hanoi has been relocated, and Shang Dang has also relocated part of it."

"Well, the order given by the lord to our army this time is to migrate the people, and the second is to break the Shangdang."

"It will be understood in the end."

Xia Houyuan nodded, he was very satisfied with the current situation.

Shangdang City is impregnable, and there are [-] troops stationed there. Although he has [-] troops, half of it is used to move the people, and there are not many troops that can be used.

And he has already played against Zhang He several times in the field.

Every time there is no winner or loser, it's considered mutual damage, but in general, he has more troops and more generals, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, it's enough to suppress the Bingzhou Yan army.

"Report! General, the spies are here to report!"

"Bring it up!"

"Yes!"

Xiahou Yuan took the report, glanced at the troops that were building a siege facility, and then read the report.

The more he looked, the more he frowned.

"Gong Ming!"

"General, what's wrong?"

"Look at this report."

Xia Houyuan handed the report to Xu Huang. In this battle, Xu Huang was the lieutenant, but Xu Huang's ability was outstanding and he got along quite well.

Xia Houyuan looked at Xu Huang and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Xu Huang is also one of the generals with foreign surnames. If it weren't for him being under the command of Emperor Xian, he should be even more powerful than he is now.

Moreover, Xu Huang also had no backers. Since his backer Yang Feng was defeated and defected, Xu Huang has always been a marginal person among the generals.

Xu Huang looked at the report and said with a heavy expression, "I didn't expect Liu Yi to take Ye City in one day!"

Xu Huang was also taken aback.

He knew that the city of Yecheng was strong and deep, with a wall of nine zhang high. As a prince, this was already an act of arrogance.

A city wall with a height of nine feet, this is the specification only for emperors! Yuan Shao has been running Ye City for so long, even if Jieqiao is defeated, Ye City will not be so easily broken.

"Yeah, this Liu Yi's action is beyond human imagination!"

"Moreover, Liu Yi's attack on Ye City in one day can be said to have completely failed the master's plan.

Moreover, the city of Ye was destroyed, our army's back road is unstable, and we must retreat as soon as possible!"

Xiahou Yuan said with a heavy heart, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
