But Zhiyuan suddenly asked, "Lu Bu said he was going to Bingzhou?"

Zhang Baiqi nodded: "Yes, at least that's what he said."

Zhiyuan thought about it carefully, and then said to Zhang Baiqi: "I guess... there will be a battle soon."

"Yuan Shao's wolfish ambitions have long been exposed. Last time, he plotted against me... and caused more than 200 of my guards to die."

"As for Yuan Shao, there are only two possibilities. Either attack Youzhou or Qingzhou. Since Lu Bu is hired by Yuan Shao, it is very likely that he will participate in the battle. We have to guard against it!"

Thinking of this, Zhi Yuan immediately went to find Yuan Shu and told him about it.As soon as Yuan Shao was mentioned, Yuan Shu was immediately very upset.After all, Yuan Shu has great ambitions, and his fellow student Yuan Shao is his biggest opponent.

"Do you want me to give you some soldiers? I have also trained a lot in Yuzhou now. Although not as good as the elite, it must be much better than those peasants."

Although Yuan Shu is also a nobleman, many people even alienate him from Zhiyuan because Zhiyuan is too hostile to noblemen.But Yuan Shu is so devoted to Zhi Yuan that he doesn't listen to what others say.

Zhiyuan smiled: "No need...it's not like I don't have soldiers, I just came from Xuzhou this time to see Brother Gonglu in person."

"Now that I know you are still alive and kicking, I am naturally ready to leave."

Yuan Shu took Zhi Yuan's hand, and dragged her back to the house. "I said...Princess...Are you 22 this year? Don't you plan to marry me? I really can't wait..."

Hmm... When Yuan Shu saw Zhiyuan for the first time, she was only 13 years old... Zhiyuan is now 22, a full nine years have passed.

Zhiyuan was a little tangled up, to be honest...she still wanted to drag it on.Now it is only a land of Qingzhou, and Zhiyuan's ambition is not to be a young mistress of the Yuan family.

So... Zhiyuan gritted her teeth: "Is it okay next time, I will definitely give you a result next time."

Zhiyuan had a good idea, the next meeting must be many years away, and if it is really delayed until then, maybe Yuan Shu will kill himself.At that time, there will be no need to marry, and it may be possible to incorporate Yuan Shu's property.

Zhiyuan really didn't dislike Yuan Shu, but to be honest, she couldn't say she liked it either.Perhaps Zhiyuan would prefer to treat Yuan Shu as a friend, okay, or as a good person.

In future generations, this is definitely the idea of ​​a scum girl + spare tire.But Zhi Yuan really didn't want to marry, so she could only procrastinate like this.

So... fellow men, if the boundary between that girl and you is blurred, and she finds words to evade when you say something important, then you have to be careful.

In the end, Yuan Shu agreed. After all, he has persisted for so many years, and it is not bad to wait for a few years.Hmm... The only problem is that now Yuan Shu's hands are becoming more and more dishonest.

Suddenly someone reported outside: "The rest of Zhang Baiqi's caravan and Sun Jian's army have also returned to Fancheng."

"Everyone Cai said that they want to meet Zhi Yuan and ask some questions." Zhi Yuan just took advantage of this opportunity, panting out of Yuan Shu's claws.

At the door, Zhang Baiqi looked at Zhiyuan with a teasing look.Then she asked directly, "Are you happy?"

"Are you happy, sister, come to me tonight, let me help you feel better." Zhiyuan snorted, and then ran out.

Recently, they have been on the road, and Cai Yong and his daughter are obviously a little tired.But after all, he escaped from Chang'an, so his mental state is really good.Zhi Yuan tidied up her clothes, then came to Cai Yong's side, and said hello to him.

"Everyone Cai has worked hard all the way. We will leave as soon as we are ready. After Qingzhou stabilizes, I want everyone to be responsible for the education work of the entire Qingzhou. I don't know how?" Zhi Yuan said to Cai Yong.

Cai Yong didn't answer this question, but instead asked a strange question: "I heard that the girl knows how to do divination along the way, and it is because of this that she saved us?"

Zhiyuan nodded.

Cai Yong asked again: "Then if you don't save us, will we die in Chang'an?"

Zhiyuan thought for a moment and then shook her head: "Master Cai, you will die, and Wang Yun will not let you go. But Zhaoji... will be more miserable."

"Because she lost your protection, she will be captured and insulted by Hun Hun Zuo Xianwang, and she will not have the chance to return to the Central Plains until 12 years later."

"In the end, marry a small official and spend the rest of my life..."

After Zhi Yuan finished speaking, Cai Yan was frightened and cried.After all, being taken away by barbarians for 12 years sounds pretty scary, right?

On the contrary, Cai Yong nodded, accepted the words calmly, and then started talking about the school.

Chapter 290 Six: War Emissary

Zhiyuan could stay here for about a week, after all, it depends on whether Sun Jian can resist.Facts have proved that it is not bad, after all, the physical fitness of the warrior is much better.

Sun Ce and Sun Quan also rushed over, and they almost didn't kneel down to Zhi Yuan. This kind of life-saving grace is still very heavy.And Zhiyuan also took a look at the two people. These two people were slightly younger than Zhiyuan. Sun Ce had met him before, but he was a general, while Sun Quan was obviously more of a literati.

Of course, it just seems that Sun Jian's sons are more capable of fighting.These two people are not very old, and they haven't reached the time when they can control one side.So in history, the two people attached to Yuan Shu for a long time, and they didn't start to separate one side until they were fully capable and their wings hardened.

So now the two people are naturally grateful to the kite, and Sun Jian is also very sad that he can survive.Basically, he also explained to Zhiyuan that if there is any need in the future, Sun Jian will go through fire and water without hesitation.

After Zhiyuan changed Sun Jian's medicine again, she thought that Sun Jian had no more problems, so she planned to leave here and return to Qingzhou.Because since learning that Lu Bu entered Bingzhou from Chang'an, Zhiyuan felt that the other party might attack her.

Especially from the perspective of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu is simply at the level of a shit-stirring stick.When I went to Yanzhou, I almost took over Cao Cao's lair, and when I went to Xuzhou, I took Liu Bei's foundation directly, and offended people everywhere, and the final result can be imagined.

Although Yuan Shu was reluctant, he also disliked his brother, and planned to give Zhi Yuan some more troops, but Zhi Yuan was determined not to.I owe too much... and Zhiyuan is quite principled, maybe I will be paid in the end.

Zhiyuan led more than 1 people directly and began to leave Jingzhou quickly.I suffered some casualties in the previous battle, but I joined Pei Yuanshao's caravan, so the number seems to have recovered.

Because there is not as much food and grass as when we came, the return speed is quite fast.It took less than a month or so to return from Lu State in Xuzhou to the border of Qingzhou.

Well, I didn't know the division of Xuzhou until Zhiyuan came back. Zhiyuan couldn't help sighing that she might have been tricked by Cao Cao.Because Donghai County was taken by Cao Cao, although Cao Cao lost most of his territory in Xuzhou, he separated Zhiyuan's power from Liu Bei's power.

This was definitely planned, and even Zhiyuan didn't think Liu Bei would have thought of this.Cao Cao, the old fox, definitely started to guard against himself. Once Cao Cao attacks Liu Bei in the future, he will be able to block Qingzhou's reinforcements here in Donghai County.

The opposite is also true...so Zhiyuan sent a messenger directly to Liu Bei to express her concerns.I believe that the current Liu Bei should also have the awareness to prepare and tear his face in the future.

However, Zhiyuan still got some information when she was here in Lu State.That is, some communication with Qingzhou was interrupted a week ago.This made Zhiyuan immediately nervous, because once such exhausting traffic control is implemented in a place, it means that it is either preparing for war or fighting already.

Zhi Yuan led people directly into Jinan County, which was Bao Xin's territory, but Xu Huang also assisted in defense here.Bao Xin had [-] to [-] soldiers, while Xu Huang led almost [-] former Qingzhou recruits to cooperate here.

If it is attacked here, it will not be done by Cao Cao.Then there is only one possibility left, that is, Yuan Shao gave up attacking Youzhou, but targeted himself.

Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou a long time ago, and went back to Yanzhou to fight against the pests after he was defeated.

Having just experienced a great battle, Cao Cao must have recuperated for a while.But Cao Cao didn't tell him what happened in Qingzhou. Only Cao Hong, the current governor of Lu State, notified him.

"Oh, it's because I'm getting stronger and stronger, so I don't have any friends anymore..." Zhi Yuan thinks about how Cao Cao molested her a few years ago, but with the indifferent attitude in Xuzhou, she knows that sooner or later she will even have friends. Nothing to do.

It seems that Yuan Shao must have attacked him, and Cao Cao should be absolutely neutral, Zhi Yuan thought about it wildly, and ordered his soldiers to be careful.

In fact, Zhiyuan guessed well, and the situation in Jinan County is already very serious.Yuan Shao used a pretense to leave some servants and tens of thousands of untrained people near Youzhou, while the main force had already returned to the vicinity of Jizhou and Qingzhou.And directly dispatched his subordinate Yan Liangwen Chou to lead a [-] main force to raid Jibei County.

Because it was a surprise attack, Jibei County was directly captured by these two people.Originally, one of Bao Xin's subordinates was here, and he didn't even have a decent resistance, so he was killed by a sneak attack on the city.

The only good news is that someone ran out from Jibei County and informed Bao Xin of the incident.Bao Xin himself did not have a good impression of Yuan Shao. After learning that Jibei County had been captured, he directly led people to move the civilians from nearby villages into Jinan.

In order to prevent these people from being used by the opponent, the enemy mixed with the civilians and carried out a sneak attack on Jinan City.And Xu Huang built a defense line in Bochang to prevent Yuan Jun from entering the plain.Well...Xu Huang has already reported the situation to Jinan. Currently, Jinan is being defended by Tang Tian's pro-army led by Su You.

However, the current plain does not seem to have been attacked by Yuan Jun.Perhaps because the plain's defense system is too perfect, the enemy does not intend to attack directly from the plain.After all, if Jinan is captured, it will be equivalent to entering the belly of Qingzhou. Even if the plains cannot be conquered by then, it will be profitable to plunder on a large scale.

Even in Jibei County, because of the fierce resistance of the civilians, Yuan Jun has already begun to massacre the city.Don't think that only Cao Cao slaughtered the city, even when Liu Bei was attacking Chengdu at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were records of looting, let alone other princes.

Fortunately, Zhiyuan basically trained all the teachers on weekdays, and when those people were teaching, they also educated the local civilians.In addition, Qingzhou is rich in food and clothing, so it has the heart to resist the invaders.

Moreover, there are veterans and local security officials in every town and countryside. These people can also quickly organize militias to resist the enemy during wartime.So even in the captured Jibei County, all the small cities are still resisting.

It was at this moment that Zhiyuan returned to Jinan.And after going deep for a long time, I saw a patrolling cavalry team.The team immediately became happy when they saw the kite, and said to the kite.

"At present, Jinan City is besieged by more than 3 people, and we are sent out to find the princess."

"General Bao ordered us to stop the princess here. The princess must be careful and return to the plain quickly. Jinan County is guarded by him, and the other party will definitely not be able to attack."

"Furthermore, General Bao reminded the princess that if Yuan Shao attacked Qingzhou, they would definitely not be the only ones with 5 people. Pingyuan is definitely the focus of the Yuan family's attack. I hope the princess will return to Pingyuan immediately without hesitation."

Zhiyuan nodded: "I understand, you also have to be careful."

"We defend the fruits of our labor, even if we die!" The cavalry left quickly.

Chapter 290 Seven: Faith

Zhiyuan frowned, after all, Jizhou attacked her so suddenly this time.

Although Zhiyuan knew that there would definitely be a war between them, she never thought of it at such a time.The development of the kite not only scares Cao Cao, but also scares Yuan Shao.

Because of Qingzhou's development and Zhiyuan's domestic policy, the largest gentry has been scared, and they have basically killed Zhiyuan.

Especially in Jibei County, which occupies the positions of two counties of Cao Cao in the north, one is called Jiyin and the other is called Weiyang.These two county towns were the places where some Yellow Turban soldiers were thrown around here when Zhiyuan beat the Yellow Turbans.

Especially Weiyang, which was originally called Sunjiatun... These two small towns are very close to Jizhou, and the managers are Lei Gong and Fu Yun.Hmm...the two of them have followed Zhiyuan for five or six years, because they have some abilities, and now they are both local guardian generals.

But after all, it is only the local army, and most of the cases are to maintain law and order.It turned out that their subordinates had long been farmers farming, and the two of them only had a thousand troops each.

When the Jizhou army invaded earlier, they didn't care about these two small counties at all, but directly raided and killed Jibei City.

But when Yuan Shao's follow-up army came over, the two had already communicated.Naturally, they would not surrender to the Yuan family, because the Yuan family was the largest gentry.The two of them directly called together some people who had fought in the city, and then explained the current situation clearly.

In the end, a team of more than 3000 people in one city was able to gather, and the two cities were only ten miles apart, so they had a support for each other and planned to resist to the end.

Here is Guo Tu, a counselor under Yuan Shao's subordinates, who is in charge of attacking the big cities in front of Yan Liangwen Chou, and these small county towns are naturally handed over to the people behind to attack slowly.

"Attack? Send someone to tell the other party that if you don't surrender within a day, you will directly slaughter the city!" Guo Tu looked at it, and he didn't care about the city wall, which was only five or six meters high.

He also has 2 people in his hands. This time to attack Qingzhou, Yuan Shao dispatched about 15 troops.In the eyes of many counselors, it is enough to just push it over.

It seems that there are less than 5 soldiers in Qingzhou, and their side is three times that of the opponent. When the time comes, the plain will be surrounded, and the rest will basically surrender directly.

But obviously, Guo Tu underestimated the strength of the Qingzhou Army's resistance.The messenger sent out was directly beheaded and hung on the top of the city.

Don't say that the two armies are fighting without killing. If one side already has a mortal attitude, then killing the other party's messenger is the best way for them to improve morale, and refuse to surrender.

Guo Tu was immediately angry, and then ordered the soldiers to attack the opponent's city.But after the two sides fought for a day, Guo Tu found that more than 1000 people were killed and injured on his side, and he didn't even hit the city wall.

This was embarrassing. He inquired about the spies on his side, and heard that the defending generals inside were simply two unknown people.But it was these two unknown people who actually blocked the onslaught of 2 people a day.

In each prince, there are several armies that can only fight.But most of them are country warriors and auxiliary soldiers. Among the 2 people under Guo Tu, most of them are local village warriors.

Lei Gong Fuyun's subordinates are actually like that.But because they defend their own land, the fighting power that erupts is not weak at all.Of course, on this day, they also suffered thousands of casualties, not much better than Guo Tu's men.

Why is this happening?Because Guo Tu has too many people, the continuous shooting of arrows caused a lot of damage on the city wall.In the end, Lei Gong had an idea and hung some stones and wooden boards directly on his chest, so that at least the vital parts would not be shot through.

After fighting all day, Lei Gong lit a fire on the west side of the city wall.About a quarter of an hour later, in Jiyin County not far away, someone also lit a fire. It was lit by Fuyun, which proved that they were still safe and not captured.

Guo Tu sneered, then ordered people to prepare dinner, and planned to launch a night attack tonight.After fighting all day during the day, the opponent must be very tired, and at night, it may be possible to succeed with one blow.

But since it's a night attack, it shouldn't be too early. It's almost like letting people arrange a rest and wait until the third watch to start things.

But what Guo Tu didn't expect was that just as they were about to get up, the two counties sent almost 1000 people out of the city to launch a night attack.

Fortunately, Guo Tu is not completely mediocre, so there is still some defense at night. The two sides killed each other in secret, and the other party burned a lot of tent materials. The two sides separated again at dawn the next day. .

This time was also considered tragic, Fuyun died directly in Yuan Jun's camp, and even Lei Gong only had more than 500 people who ran back, and only 500 people returned after two thousand people from the two counties.

But because it was a sneak attack, nearly [-] casualties were directly caused to Guo Tu.And there are almost [-] shi of grain and grass, which are burned by them...

After Guo Tu counted the losses the next day, he almost died of anger.These two counties must not be kept. Guo Tu turned over the body of Fuyun who had been killed, and then directly stripped it and threw it in front of the formation.

Then Guo Tu ordered his men to work hard, and they must attack these two cities today.And made a final persuasion to the two cities, because Guo Tu found that his loss was a bit too great, and it was really unbearable.

And Lei Gong on the city wall looked at the corpse of Fuyun in the distance and smiled wryly, and then said to the hundreds of people who were still following him: "Since we took refuge in the princess, we have had enough food for several years. What kind of life did we live before the virtuous teacher rebelled?"

"If we hadn't met the princess back then, we would have been dead for so many years now. The princess has never treated us badly over the years, and some teachers even came to teach us how to read."

"It is also because we know some words that we can understand why those gentry oppress us. Their prosperity and luxury are only based on our bones."

"This is why we are still fighting today, and why we will not surrender or compromise!"

After Lei Gong said a few words, a scholar-like person came here. Although this person was a little trembling, he still held back his composure and said: "Lei Xiancheng is right, although I don't know swordsmanship at all, but at this time I would like to To die with you."

This person is the only scholar in Weiyang County, and he was also taught by Zhiyuan.Although he usually felt weak, but after saying a few more words, he gradually stopped trembling.

"We were once enslaved, but now we are free... The princess once said that any change will be bloody... although maybe we are not ready."

"But the enemy is right in front of us. Even if we all die here, we must protect the princess and give us the belief that we have not been enslaved!"

"Let us live and die together!"

Two days later, Jiyin and Weiyang fell one after another, and more than 4000 people in the two counties resisted to the end.A total of about [-] casualties were caused to Yuan Jun, which made Yuan Jun even more afraid of the Qingzhou Army.

After all... the people have faith, which is what the family fears the most.

Chapter 290: The collapsed situation

When Zhiyuan was approaching Bochang, he finally encountered an enemy. He was considered to be a high-ranking subordinate of the old Jizhou Mu Hanfu.This high-ranking cadre can be regarded as an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and he has been well used by Yuan Shao's subordinates.

Of course... high-ranking cadres belong to the category of being reused, and sometimes even have a higher status than Yan Liang and Wen Chou. After all, Yuan Shao appreciates his versatility in both civil and military affairs.

This time they attacked Jinan County, there were two other high-ranking officials, and each of them led tens of thousands of people.His main goal is to capture Bochang in order to cut off the connection between Jinan County and Yuanyuan County.

Of course, what Gao Gan didn't expect was that the opponent's general, Qingzhou, had set up a camp of 1 people near Bochang.And he was not the opponent's opponent. The [-] people in Qingzhou were much stronger than his side, and he didn't take any advantage after fighting several times.

This made Gao Gan a little upset. The opponent's general seemed to have a strong force value, and it was impossible for Gao Gan to fight the opponent one-on-one, so he simply set up a camp nearby to stalemate with the opponent.
