Chapter 542

In an instant, the order of surrender spread all over the city. One by one, Yuan's soldiers who fought each other withdrew from the battlefield. They all knelt on the ground and surrendered, throwing away their weapons.

At the same time, Gao Lan had already taken off his armor, put down his weapons and knelt down.

Such a scene is beyond the expectation of Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others. It never occurred to anyone that Yuan's soldiers, who were still fierce and were still fighting to the death, were suddenly all demoted.

Just now, Yuan Jun vowed to fight to the death. One by one, they were crying out to fight. They were eager to kill and had a strong will to fight.

It's daunting.

Zhao Yun and others all admire him, because he is a powerful army who is good at fighting. Such opponents, even enemies, such as Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, are given enough respect.

It's just, all of a sudden, it's all down.

Huang Zhong didn't say much. With a wave of his hand, he ordered his men to detain yuan's soldiers who surrendered. At this time, he came to Gaolan and took Gaolan.

Huang Zhong doesn't understand Gao Lan's intention and doesn't speak to him. He orders people to take control of the city and prepare to search for Yuan Shao and others.

Gao Lan said, "General Huang, Yuan Shao has been away for an hour and a half."

An hour and a half?

Huang Zhong frowned, surprised, and said, "you mean that after Yuan Shao left, you stayed behind and took command, and resisted us for an hour and a half."

"Yes

Gao Lan nodded.

Huang Zhong said: "then you have resisted for an hour and a half, but you have never been defeated. Why did you suddenly fail to resist?"

Gao Lan said nothing more.

Seeing that Huang Zhong couldn't find out the reason, he arranged for the soldiers to go to the four City towers. Then, Huang Zhong asked people to open the gate and let Zhang Xiu and the subsequent army come in.

As soon as Zhang Xiu entered, Huang Zhong reported Gao Lan's situation.

Zhang Xiu also had some accidents.

He went straight up to the tower, came to Gao Lan, and asked, "just now Huang Zhong said that General Gao fought against our army for an hour and a half, and Yuan Shao walked for an hour and a half."

"Your resistance for one and a half hours is wonderful."

"Although you have caused me great losses, I admire your ability. But you resisted for an hour and a half, and then suddenly you couldn't. It should be Yuan Shao who arranged for you to resist for an hour and a half, and then let you leave. "

Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Shao treats you as an abandoned son, so after you finish Yuan Shao's entrustment, you order no more resistance, right?"

Gao Lan's eyebrows rose, showing an unexpected look. He didn't say why. Zhang Xiu guessed what he thought in his heart. He didn't even have any mistakes. It's really powerful.

Gao Lan said: "Taiwei is wise!"

Zhang Xiu smiles gently. The reason why he can guess it is because he knows that Yuan Shao regards Gao Lan as an abandoned son. Zhang Xiu clearly remembers that in the battle of Guandu in history, after Yuan Shao's defeat in the north, Zhang Ya and Gao Lan were also allowed to resist Cao Jun and regarded Zhang Ya and Gao Lan as abandoned sons.

In the end, Gao Lan and Zhang Yan were both subordinated to Cao Cao.

Things are different, but a person's temperament will not change.

Zhang Xiu believes that Gao Lan is.

So Zhang Xiu guessed that one and a half hours was the agreement Yuan Shao gave Gao Lan. Gao Lan fulfilled Yuan Shao's orders and devoted himself to Yuan Shao. In the end, Gao Lan, with a cold heart, chose to surrender.

This is Gaolan.

This is a living high view.

Flesh and blood!

It's not masculine, it's not flexible, it's not stubborn when there's a bottom line.

With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu once again said, "General Gao is willing to surrender. Then, are you willing to work for me?"

This inquiry is a solicitation.

Before Gao Lan surrendered, he did not resist.

It's not working.

When Gao Lan heard Zhang Xiu's question, he didn't answer it immediately. Instead, he asked, "Zhang Taiwei knows that I betrayed Yuan Shao. Do you dare to use me now? You know, I'm a second minister. "

"Ha ha ha..."

Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "if you are a second minister, I like you. You are loyal to Yuan Shao. In the end, you gave up resistance, reduced casualties, and could not bear the death of soldiers, because of kindness; you know the reason why good birds choose trees, because of tact. I don't dare to use a person like you. "

After hearing this, Gao Lan said: "Gao Lan, I'd like to meet you!"

"Good!" said Zhang Xiu

Zhang Xiu is also happy to attract Gao Lan. However, for the time being, Zhang Xiu did not arrange Gao Lan's official position, because the war was not over. Now it is too early to arrange Gao Lan, so she can only leave Gao Lan in the army for the time being.

"Step on it! Step on it

All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came.

But Chen is here.

Chen Dao's face was very hasty. He walked up to Zhang Xiu and said solemnly, "Lord, Yuan Shao has already escaped. According to the news, Yuan Shao walked for an hour and a half. Although Yuan Shao runs fast, the cavalry of Langya camp, who is under his humble command, may not be able to catch up. I'll go after Yuan Shao at once. ""Go for it!"

Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, Sima Yi said, "General Chen, wait a minute!"

Chen Dao said, "what's the matter?"

Zhang Xiu also looks at Sima Yi. He is curious. What does Sima Yi have to say.

In Sima Yi's eyes, there was a light in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "if you capture and kill Yuan Shao now, or even seize Yuan Shao, Jizhou will be in chaos, and even most of Jizhou will be divided up by Gongsun Zan or Cao Cao."

"With the current strength of the Lord, even if he can attack Jizhou, he will not be able to capture it."

"We don't have that foundation."

"It's too long to fight in Jizhou now. Moreover, in Jizhou, there are many aristocratic families. We suddenly went to Jizhou. Under the condition of unstable foundation, we could not control the situation. "

Sima Yi had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "this time Yuan Shao was defeated, the humble suggestion is enough. What's more, Zhang Yan is attacking Yecheng. They will also deal with Yuan Shao. "

Zhang Xiu heard Sima Yi's words and understood Sima Yi's worries.

This battle is almost certain.

If there is no Cao Cao on the side of the covetous, Zhang Xiu can drive straight in, directly defeated Yuan Shao's headquarters Ye City. The problem is that there are Gongsun Zan in the north and Cao Cao in Yanzhou. Even though Gongsun Zan is weak today, his real strength is not so weak.

Cao Cao is not simple.

Therefore, Sima Yi hoped that Zhang Xiu would stop when she saw the good and consolidate her foundation first.

Zhang Xiu thought for a while, laughed and said: "Zhongda, your consideration is reasonable, but you forget a fact. First, we haven't caught Yuan Shao. Second, we have not entered Jizhou. Even if we catch Yuan Shao, we can release people. It's a pity that we have won, but we have given up the chance to pursue hard. If we don't fight Yuan Shao, we'll waste our present opportunity. "

"Ah

Sima Yi heard the speech and exclaimed.

Just now, he was immersed in the consequences of taking Yuan Shao. But ignore that even if you catch people, you can let them go.

This is one of the keys.

With a look of shame, Sima Yi said, "my Lord, I don't think much about my humble position."

Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "your consideration is very good. Today's Jizhou really can't do without Yuan Shao. Without Yuan Shao, the balance of the situation in the North would be broken. But now, we have to pursue Yuan Shao first. "

Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"

Zhang Xiu looked at Chen to one side and ordered: "Uncle Zhi, chase it!"

"Here it is

Chen arrived at the command, took a team of soldiers and left first.

Zhang Xiuze led the army and began to clean up the battlefield of Yin county and deal with the follow-up. When everything in dangyin county was finished, Zhang Xiu slowly took the army north to Jizhou.

This time, we have to chase hard.

We should beat Yuan Shao.
