There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

The Heishan army turned to the north, and under the leadership of Guo Jia and Zhang Yan, they approached Gongsundu, while Sima Yi and Zhao Yun urged the Southern Huns and Wuhuan to fight against Xianbei.

In this way, in the land of Jizhou, after a period of division and collision, it finally became a one-on-one situation between the potter and Yuan Shao.

After Zhang He and Guo Yuan's defeat, Qianzhao was isolated and helpless, unable to face the potter's Jinling strong troops, and had no choice but to withdraw his troops.

The potters immediately took Handan City smoothly, and the next step was to send troops to Weijun to take Yecheng directly.

But at this time, the main force of Yuan Jun in Hebei, the powerful Yuan Shaozhong Army, finally stood in front of him.

This time, unlike the battle of Guandu, the potter will no longer have the support of Cao Cao's army. He will be alone and defeat Yuan Shao head-on with his strength.

And the pottery merchant also made up his mind, no longer playing tricks with Yuan Shao, he wanted to give Yuan Shao a thunderous blow head-on.

At that moment, the pottery merchants held a military meeting.

"Yuan Shao's great stronghold is now standing between our army and Yecheng. We are only short of this final blow. We can defeat Yuan Shao and occupy Yecheng, an important city in the world... When I let Guo Yuan go back some time ago, I once They ordered him to bring the letter of war to Yuan Shao, but Yuan Benchu ​​has not replied so far, it seems that he does not intend to take the initiative to attack... If he does not attack, then we will take the initiative to fight!"

Xu Chu stepped forward excitedly, and said, "Prime Minister, is there any harm this time that can deal with Yuan Shao?"

This is really not pleasant to say!

If it weren't for the fact that he was a direct descendant of the pottery merchant, the pottery merchant would have shot him to death outside the school grounds just because he was a direct descendant of the pottery merchant.

"Zhongkang, next time you speak...can you be more precise with your words?" The potter taught him patiently: "For example, the word 'Shangzhao' is not appropriate for me, can you please?" Describe it as a 'gift'?"

Xu Chu didn't quite understand what the potter meant.

"Prime Minister, don't the words 'damage' and 'miaoji' mean the same thing?"

The potter closed his eyes helplessly, and said, "These two words have the same meaning after 2000, but you just can't say that! This is the rule!"

Xu Chu let out an 'oh', and changed his tune: "May I ask the Prime Minister what kind of tricks you have?"

The pottery merchant shook his head, and said, "There is no clever plan, just attack directly and overwhelm Yuan Shao with strength."

All the generals couldn't help being surprised when they heard this.

Xu Huang was mature and prudent, stepped out of the squad and said: "Prime Minister, Yuan Shao has twice as many soldiers as our army, and there are hundreds of generals, so it's a bit presumptuous to confront each other head-on?"

The potter raised his hand and said, "If it was two or three years ago, I would never be so arrogant that I thought we could defeat Yuan Shao's main force on the battlefield, but the situation is different now. In the Battle of Hebei, Yuan Shao's troops The partial division has suffered repeated setbacks, and now it is surrounded by enemies on all sides. Over the years, Yuan's various actions have been unpopular, and even more aggressive, losing the support of the gentry and the common people, and the strength of our army is growing every year. The lack of war horses is already enough now... one will ebb and flow, and now is a good time to confront Yuan Shao head-on."

Tao Shang paused, and said: "Yuan Shao has twice as many soldiers and horses as ours, but our army is elite, and there are many strong generals, and the weapons and armor are also superior to his troops. I have such confidence in all the generals. Don't you have confidence in yourself?"

Tai Shici, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Qu Yi, A Fei, Huang Zhong, Ji Ling, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Zang Ba and others all took a deep breath when they heard the words.

The prime minister is so proud, if we are timid, wouldn't we be living up to the name of a good general?

Isn't it just Yuan Jun?What about the quantity?

At that moment, Xu Chuhao said: "What the prime minister said is true! Don't worry, a certain family will fight with all their strength this time, even if there is only one soldier left, they will never back down, vowing to die with Yuan Shao Fight to the end."

Inside the handsome tent, the pottery merchant was silent for a while before he said quietly: "It is unnecessary to fight until there is only one soldier left. If you see that the opponent is too strong to do anything, you should withdraw or withdraw... Don't wipe out Tao's family fortune that he has accumulated for so many years."

The pride that had just been inspired by the generals was vented in an instant.

It's out of style.

The pottery merchant ordered someone to take the map, and said: "I have already ordered the school affairs office to investigate clearly. Yuan Shao's main camp is now divided into seven camps, and a total of six cronies have been sent to guard them, namely Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi, Chun Yuqiong, and Yuan Shao himself, each camp has nearly a hundred generals and lieutenants, their strength should not be underestimated. Right now, I have divided into seven formations, and selected seven generals to lead the attack battalions."

After finishing speaking, the potter looked around at the generals and said, "Tai Shici, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Xu Huang, Qu Yi, Zhou Tai... Each of you six is ​​in charge of attacking the first battalion. I will meet the rest of the generals later." Assigned to your subordinates, depending on your scheduling, this battle is very critical, before you leave, you must sign a military order for Tao, understand?"

"promise!"

Xu Chu and A Fei were very unwilling to see that the leader did not have their own share, and the pottery merchant had only hired six people just now.

Ah Fei hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, what about another army?"

The pottery merchant said indifferently: "I will lead the Seventh Army myself."

Gan Ning suddenly asked: "Prime Minister intends to personally lead the troops to attack the main camp guarded by Yuan Shao?"

The pottery merchant shook his head and said, "I will lead the troops to attack the battalion led by Yuan Tan... As for Yuan Shao's battalion..."

The pottery merchant turned to look at Qu Yi and said, "I'll leave it to General Qu."

Qu Yi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Chapter 748 Yuan Tao's Fierce Battle

After the plan was formulated, the pottery merchant handed over the generals and troops under his command to six generals respectively, and set a time to attack together.

The pottery merchants dispatched troops in full swing, ready to launch a thunderous blow to Yuan Shao.

On the contrary, Yuan Shao has been a little troubled these days.

Now his soldiers and horses have arrived in Handan, but Zhang Yun's incident and Cao Cao's reprimand made him hesitate for a long time, and it was not until recently that he calmed down a little.

Yuan Shao has been discussing the next move with his advisers for several days, but there is no progress.

At this very moment, there are many opinions and opinions, and everyone has various ideas.

Jushou asked Yuan Shao to integrate the three armies, guard the main roads, stand against the potters without fighting, and wait for a good opportunity.

Xun Chen and Xin Ping had different ideas. They believed that at this moment, the Southern Huns and the Black Mountain Army were blocked by Gongsundu and Xianbei respectively, and they should send troops to attack Tao quickly when all the allies of the pottery merchants were unable to help. Business, to win the initiative of the situation.

Guo Tu, on the other hand, advised Yuan Shao to arrange for someone to negotiate with the pottery merchant again, and while the negotiation was in progress, he would sneak attack the enemy or set up a Hongmen banquet to kill him in one fell swoop.

Pang Ji didn't give any advice. Since he was captured alive, he basically lost Yuan Shao's trust. Even if he gave advice to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao would not adopt it. If this is the case, it is better not to speak at all, and to be a mute.

Everyone, you said something to each other, and Yuan Shao's head was straightened.

He always felt that what his subordinates said made sense, but there were always some omissions and imperfections.

On this day, the sun gradually set, the sky gradually darkened, and the setting sun slanted down, reflecting Yuan Shao's camp in red.

Yuan Shao felt very tired after reading the military situation of the day and the current affairs slips and documents from Yecheng. He ignored the bowl of porridge on the table and leaned on the table while rubbing his temples. on the bed.

It wasn't long before I was confused, when I heard a burst of noisy footsteps coming from outside the tent.

Immediately afterwards, a guard hurried in, cupped his hands to Yuan Shao and said, "General, something is wrong! The direction of Second Young Master's Dazhai in the southwest seems to be on fire!"

Yuan Shao was in a daze, and didn't hear very clearly. After a while, he suddenly realized.

He turned over hastily, rolled off the bed, and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he had practiced the six arts when he was young, and his skills were strong, so the fall was not too embarrassing.

Yuan Shao didn't care about that anymore, he rushed out of the camp in a hurry, carefully watching the direction of Yuan Xi's Dazhai.

But seeing the blazing flames, there seemed to be the sound of shouting for killing.
