A ray of cold wind rushed up from the valley, adding a bit of solemnity to the hills at night. Zhang Liao and others all bowed their fists to Wang Li and left, but Wang Li stood on the top of the mountain with his hands on his back and stared at the torch gradually moving away from the mountain.

"Lord, Lu Bu has escaped. Are we going back to Luoyang next?" Zhou Cang asked with a big cloak in his hand and gently put it on Wang Li.

Wang Li shook his head, turned around and pointed to Guanshan faintly in the south: "No, Lu Bu has already escaped, Yuan Shao has sent troops to Yi Jing and Gongsun Zan to fight hard. The forces under the command of Prince Chenliu are afraid that they will no longer be able to compete with the court. It is a great opportunity for us to recover the Central Plains in one fell swoop. What should we do when we go back to Luoyang at this moment?"

"My mistress gave birth to Lin'er, and the lord has a successor. Don't you plan to go back to Luoyang?" Zhou Cang pouted and suddenly his eyes lit up, and his mouth almost couldn't close. "Maybe you have already decided to calm the Central Plains, so you transferred both generals Zilong and Ziyi here?"

"It's not stupid!" Wang Li slapped Zhou Cang and smiled, "Why do you need me to send all the generals under me here? Let's go, go back to Jiuyuan and see if Wenhe and Junyi have arrived!"

...

In "Manjianghong", the modern heroine Qiu Jin once wrote: If you can't get the body, the man will be ranked. But the heart is better than the man! It's all your life, because people are always hot. Who knows me? A hero's end will be torture. Where can I find a soulmate? The blue shirt is wet!

Although Gongsun Zan, who was far away in Yijing, did not know this poem, he had already felt the sadness of "singing all sides to ruin Chu". He is no longer the white horse general who was scattered in Youyan back then. He has come to the end of a tortured hero.

Originally, he killed two generals under Yuan Shao's command by the Black Shuichi battle, which was at a high spirit.

However, he did not expect that this time Yuan Shao no longer wanted to play house with him, but planned to uproot his power and completely nail him to the book of shame in history. Yuan Shao directly used tens of thousands of generals to attack Yi Jing from Lu Nu.

"Wuyan, are Zong Ji and Zou Dan and others here?" Gongsun Zan stood on the city tower, looking dozens of miles away, where yellow sand was everywhere, and he turned his head to ask the guard leader beside him.

Before Wu Yan could answer, a rustling sound of steps sounded from the city. All the generals under Gongsun Zan, including Zou Dan, Yan Gang, Guan Jing, Gongsun Fan, etc., had arrived, and even Tian Kai, who was far away in Qingzhou, also came here.

"See lord!"

Everyone hugged their fists, Gongsun Zan had waved his hand and looked at everyone with a solemn look: "The war is urgent now, so those false gifts are not needed for the time being. To put it short, everyone knows the situation today. Yuan Shao is coming in a fierce manner, and within a few days, he even conquered Liwu and Gaoyang. The army is only a hundred miles away from us. I want to ask you, have you ever had any good strategies to retreat to the enemy?"

Zou Dan and Tian Kai looked at each other, shook their heads and replied, "Lord, I still think that the lord should avoid his attack for the time being and retreat to our Youzhou territory. On the one hand, it will lengthen Yuan Shao's front line, and on the other hand, it will exchange space for time to rest and recuperate. Let's decide the length of the future, why bother with the moment!"

Zou Dan's meaning is obviously a bit like a protracted war, which is also the best choice at present, but Gongsun Zan is not willing to leave. Although this place is not his old nest, he has also poured a lot of blood and sweat.

Yijing was adjacent to Yishui in the south. After Gongsun Zan occupied Yijing, he summoned tens of thousands of soldiers and migrant workers to dig ten trenches around them, piled up into mountains five or six meters high, and then built camps and troops on it. The hills in the middle were more than ten meters high, and a large city was built on it, which is the "Yijing" under their feet.

The city's storage valleys are about three million hu, which can support the cost of the army under his command for several years. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Naturally, he would not escape by listening to Yuan Shao's reputation.

What's more, according to his confidant Liu Weitai, Yi Jing changed the capital of the world. No matter how poor he was, Gongsun Zan was, he was also a real man with ambitions. How could he remain indifferent to this "Yi Jing"?

Liu Weitai is Gongsun Zan's sworn brother, a charlatan who makes a living by occupying his servants.

It's funny to say that. I don't know if Gongsun Zan is either mentally ill or personality. Liu Bei's sworn brothers are all famous generals and loyal and righteous people like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but what about his sworn brothers? Except for one charlatan Liu Weitai, the other two are Li Yizi, who sells cloth, and Le Dang.

But these three people rely on their identity to pretend to be powerful in Yijing, and they ignored anyone. They forced themselves to seize the robbery and gathered a large amount of money, and even Gongsun Zan's reputation fell to a low point in Yijing.

Let’s not talk about the gossip. Seeing that Gongsun Zan was determined to stick to Yijing, Zou Dan and the others sighed slightly: “Since the lord intends to defend Yijing to the death, the last generals can only follow the lord to guard this place to death. Yuan Shao’s army is very anxious. Please give the lord an order as soon as possible.”

Gongsun Zan looked at the others and saw Shan Jing, Yan Gang, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan and Nalou, and others had no objection. Then he said, "You generals don't have to be irritable. Although Yuan Shao is a thief, he is strong and powerful, but I am in a stable capital. There are also generals who go all out, but it is not something that Yuan Shao can break up just by farting.

The day before yesterday, the general Wang Li reported that he had already received the Tang report from the former general Wang Li. He would soon launch an attack on Taiyuan, Bingzhou. As long as he took down the entire Bingzhou, he would immediately turn around and attack the Central Plains. By then, Yuan Shao was attacked from both sides and would not last long.

Once Yuan Shao divided his troops back to defend the Central Plains, his troops would inevitably be insufficient, and this is the opportunity for us to turn defeat into victory! Therefore, this commander: Nalou is responsible for the southern border camp, Zou Dan and Tian Kai are responsible for the northern border camp, Yan Gang and Gongsun Yue are responsible for the eastern border camp, while Shan Jing and Gongsun Fan are responsible for the western border camp.

The other generals followed the generals to take charge of the city and face the enemy with him. This time, they must let Yuan Shao leave his head under my Yijing City, just like Lu Weihuang and others!"

...

Gongsun Zan is ready to counterattack, and Yuan Shao is also preparing for this big feast.

In Gaoyang County Government, Yuan Shaowei sat on a coach chair. Looking at the generals and strategists on both sides, he pinched the Tangbao in his hand and made a decision flashed with his eyes, and stood up suddenly.
