The rapid sound of horse's hooves resounded through the official road.
Yuan Shao and his party of more than 1000 people are on their way. No matter Yuan Shao or others, their faces are dignified and full of worry.
This battle, defeated!
All the 100000 troops under Yuan Shao's command remained in dangyin county.
When he came, Yuan Shao had a hundred thousand people under his command. He was as energetic as a tiger, and he was even more instructive. Yuan Shao believed that if he went out to fight, he would certainly be able to capture Guanzhong and gain a foothold in Guanzhong.
But now, Yuan Shao ran away, leaving only a thousand soldiers under his command.
The gap is too big.
Yuan Shao has lived for decades and has never met such a tragic situation.
It's too bad.
Not only was he defeated, but his generals Qu Yi, Chun Yu Qiong and his son Yuan Tan all died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Yuan Shao thought about the battle with Zhang Xiu, and his heart was a burst of despair.
Even though he had a strong army, he seemed to be hanged from beginning to end.
The two sides are at war.
He is like a three-year-old child, while Zhang Xiu is an adult. The confrontation between the two sides is no longer at the same level.
At this time, the group retreated all the way. They were very tired, and there were no pursuers in the rear, so they stopped for a while to rest. Yuan Shao found a big tree to lean against at will and took time to rest.
Ju Shi, Xu you, Yuan Shang and others all sat down around Yuan Shao. On all faces, there was a look of lingering fear.
The fighting in dangyin county was too fierce and the damage was too great.
Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, you said that Gaolan had been sitting in the rear Hall of the town for an hour and a half. Can he withdraw from dangyin county?"
Xu you said in a deep voice: "with the strength of Gaolan, there is no problem. Lord, you don't have to worry about Gao Lan's safety. As long as we retreat with all our strength and don't increase the burden on Gao Lan, Gao Lan will be able to evacuate. "
"I hope so!"
In Yuan Shao's heart, however, there was no hope.
In the current situation, even Yuan Shao himself does not think that Gaolan will be in a tight encirclement if he can really stick to it for one and a half hours.
Xu you changed his words and said again, "my Lord, it's meaningless to worry about Gao Lan now. He's the best when he comes back. If we don't pull it back, there's no way. "
"What we have to consider now is the withdrawal of Yecheng."
"Previously, Zhang Xiu said one thing."
"Zhang Yan, the black mountain army, has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu and is leading his troops to attack Yecheng. Under such a premise, it is quite likely that we will be ambushed halfway when we withdraw and return. "
Xu you said in a deep voice: "the humble proposal must be withdrawn as soon as possible. Only when ye city is withdrawn can the Lord mobilize his troops to defend against Zhang Xiu's attack. "
Ju said: "Ziyuan means that we will be ambushed by the black mountain army on our way back. But similarly, there may be pursuers coming from our rear, and Zhang Xiu is likely to send cavalry to cover us up. "
The rest echoed.
People's words made Yuan Shao's face sink.
It's pretty bad.
Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said, "Ziyuan, under the present situation, what do you say to do?"
Xu you replied, "there are only two ways."
Yuan Shao is also a man who can lead the army to fight. As soon as he listens to Xu you's words, he suddenly understands. At this time, the army was divided into two routes, one under the banner of Yuan Shao, and the other under the real name of Yuan Shao.
Only in this way can we leave quietly.
Only in this way can we return safely.
Yuan Shao thought about it and said, "Ziyuan, you are very intelligent and familiar with Zhang Xiu's methods. This time, you led 800 elite soldiers back to Yecheng. The rest of the people, with the official copy path back
"Ah
Xu you exclaimed.
At this moment, Xu you's face became extremely pale, and his eyes showed a look of horror.
He didn't want to lead.
On the one hand, they may be ambushed by Zhang Yan of the Heishan army, on the other hand, they may also be pursued by Zhang Xiu's army, which is extremely dangerous.
Xu Gu Dong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked unwilling, and said: "Lord, in my opinion, it is most appropriate for the rest of the people to lead the 800 elite soldiers. After all, the humble martial arts are too weak to be in charge of the army. "
"No, you are the most suitable."
Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "Ziyuan, you are flexible and good at solving complicated things. This time, I believe you can do it well. Ziyuan, the safety of my official is entrusted to you. I'll celebrate for you when I get back to Yecheng. "
Change your face again.
Earlier, he suggested that Yuan Shao treat Gao Lan as an abandoned son.
In the twinkling of an eye, he became an abandoned son.
At this moment, Xu you deeply realized the feeling of becoming an abandoned son. That kind of helplessness, that kind of despair, it's almost crazy. However, Xu you couldn't find any reason to refuse because he was from Yuan Shao."Mr. Xu, it's your chance to let you lead the army. This time, do well. "
"Mr. Xu."
"Mr. Xu will lead the army in this battle. With his intelligence, he will definitely avoid Zhang Yan's ambush safely. What's more, there may not be ambush on the way back. It's very likely that Zhang Yan will attack Yecheng directly and will not arrange ambush. "
……
One person, one after another.
No one stood up to speak for Xu you. They all fell into the well and let Xu you lead the army.
At this moment, Xu you's heart is so cool.
Xu you's cheek puffed and suddenly sneered twice. At this moment, he can be regarded as seeing people's attitude towards him. Xu you took a deep breath and said, "the Lord will arrange it, and Xu you will execute it. Please rest assured that Xu you will do his best. "
Yuan Shao said: "hard work is far away."
"It's not hard to be humble!"
The look on Xu you's face was that Gujing didn't see any waves any more.
There is no more sorrow than death.
So far, Xu you's heart, no more hope. Because in today's situation, no matter what he said, Yuan Shao would not arrange another person to lead the soldiers. He could only lead the soldiers by biting his teeth.
After all the arrangements were made, Yuan Shao immediately led his troops to leave, took 200 soldiers with him, and took the path back to Yecheng.
Xu you and his soldiers stay where they are.
Xu you's heart, but thinking about their own retreat. Yuan Shao is more willing to be ambushed, and he is not willing to play for Yuan Shao. So Yuan Shao asked him to lead the army in the official way. He didn't have the heart at all.
However, Xu you also knows that Zhang Xiu doesn't accept him at all. If Zhang Xiu is willing to accept, when she was captured by Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu has accepted him.
"To Yanzhou!"
Xu you's eyes, suddenly across a light.
Yuan shaoshe abandoned him, Zhang Xiu did not use him, so he went to Yanzhou to join Cao Cao. After all, he and Cao Cao have a good relationship.
Xu you arranged for the general to lead the troops and withdraw to Yecheng along the official road. Xu you, with a few soldiers, turned directly to Yanzhou instead of Jizhou.
