Back to the Three Kingdoms

In fact, Yuan Tan regretted immediately after rejecting Cao Cao's messenger. After all, the situation is no longer what it was before. Yuan Shang, the strongest of the three brothers, fell apart in this short period of time, and Jizhou was divided by the powerful Wei and Qin forces. He has now rejected Cao Cao's surrender, and Wei Jun is bound to attack in a big way. However, with his current situation, I am afraid that no one believes that he can stop Wei Jun. This is the case for people. As long as the last moment is not reached, it is difficult to let go of the glory and wealth in front of you, although this glory and wealth will be wiped out at any time on the volcanic crater!

This morning, Yuan Tan was discussing the current situation with his two important advisers, Xin Ping Guo Tu.

At this moment, an army officer rushed in anxiously and reported in a hurry: "Come on to the lord, it's not good, Cao Jun, Cao Jun has crossed the Yellow River!"

Although Yuan Tan and others had expected that Cao Jun would come, they couldn't help being surprised when they heard the officer's report. Yuan Tan asked anxiously: "How many soldiers and horses did the enemy come?"

The officer said: "The Cao Jun is known as a million people, with banners everywhere, and the soldiers and horses are like tides!"

Yuan Tan and others were horrified, staring at each other, unable to speak for a while. Yuan Tan asked the two pro-talkers at a loss: "Two gentlemen, what shall we do? Our army is less than 200,000, how can we withstand his 500,000 army!?"

Xin Ping immediately said: "For the present plan, I can only ask for help!"

Yuan Tan's eyes lit up and he nodded again and again, "Yes, yes! I can ask for help from my second brother!" Then he worriedly said: "But he also assisted Yuan Xilai in attacking my Qingzhou not long ago. Will he help me?"

Xin Ping clasped his fists and said: "Now if the enemy is strong, we have to unite and unite if we want to survive. Young Master Yuan Xi should understand this." Yuan Tan couldn't help but nodded.

Guo Tu clasped his fist and said: "President Yuan Xi has the Qin army in front of him, so I am afraid it is very difficult to come for rescue. I think we should go to Sun Jian for help, and ask him to attack Yanzhou from behind!" Yuan Tan worriedly said: " Mr.'s plan is not bad, but Sun Jian will send troops? We must know that the Wei Jun's soldiers are flourishing now!" Guo Tu said: "Sun Jian is very ambitious, as you can see from his private possession of the jade seal. But now Cao Jun is all attacking. In Qingzhou, it is a good time for his Sun Jian to raid Yanzhou and Xuzhou, not to mention we promised him the land of Jizhou! I dare to promise that Sun Jianshang will send troops!"

Yuan Tan hesitated and said: "But, is it a pity that Jizhou gives up the rich land to Sun Jian?"

Guo Tu smiled and said: "Lord, now that Jizhou is in the hands of Chen Lang and Cao Cao, we are powerless to seize it. Why don't we give Sun Jian an empty promise to make him fight with Cao Cao and wait until they are exhausted. At that time, we looked at the opportunity to invade Jizhou, and it would not be difficult to regain Jizhou in one fell swoop!"

Yuan Tan laughed loudly, and even called a trick, and then ordered the two to act separately, one sent someone to Youzhou to ask for Yuan Xi's help, the other sent someone to Jiangxia to ask for help from Sun Jian. For Yuan Tan, Sun Jian's path is the most important thing, so Yuan Tan especially urged him to take out the huge pearls he had treasured for a long time as a gift to Sun Jian.

Compared with the northern regions where soldiers and people are everywhere, Jiangxia is a prosperous scene of singing and dancing. On this day, a group of Jiangdong cavalry rushed into the city gate guarding several carriages. Although it was early in the morning, there were already many pedestrians on the streets of Jiangxia. Many people are sweeping in the street, and the brilliance of the rising sun shines on this big riverside city, which looks splendid and beautiful.

The team stopped in front of the majestic and majestic Prince Wu's mansion in the light of the rising sun. An official was standing at the gate waiting for him. At this moment, a civil servant jumped out of the carriage, and the official at the gate immediately greeted him and led the civil official through the gate to the hall.

The civil servants came to the main hall and saw the majesty of the Wu court. Wu Wang Sun Jian looked down on the majestic and majestic, and couldn't help but was shocked. Then he clasped his fists and said: "Qingzhou Governor Yuan Tan's envoy Guan Tong pays homage to His Highness Wu !"

Sun Jian smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite to come. I wonder if Master Yuan Tan has sent you here?"

Guan Tong straightened up and said with a serious face: "Now that the traitorous minister is in charge, seeing the northern mountains and rivers all fall, Wang Wu, as the minister of the humerus of the Han, should he just sit and watch in the south of the Yangtze River?"

When Sun Jian heard the words, he laughed, looked at Guan Tong, and said, "Don't talk about these imaginary things. I know that Yuan Tan is in a critical situation now. You are here to ask me for help. Right?"

Guan Tong clasped his fists and said: "My son certainly hopes to be rescued by King Wu, but this is a great opportunity for Hopeless! Now Cao Cao personally leads his army to attack Qingzhou, and Yanzhou and Xuzhou are empty. This is not the right time for King Wu to attack Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Is it? With King Wu’s bravery, it’s really easy to capture Yanzhou Xuzhou at this moment! If you miss such a great opportunity, I am afraid that there will be no such good opportunity in the future! In addition, my master said, if King Wu can do it at this time If you help, you are willing to give Jizhou to King Wu, and you will never dare to fight with King Wu!"

Sun Jian sat thinking for a while, and said to Guan Tong: "The dispatch of troops is not a trivial matter. I need to discuss it with my subordinates. Please come to the guest house to rest temporarily."

Guan Tong was very anxious, but at this moment he couldn't say anything anymore. He clasped his fist and said, "I am waiting for the good news from King Wu." Even after retreating, the official waiting at the door led Guan Tong to the guest house. .

When Guan Tong left, Sun Jian asked everyone, "What do you think of Guan Tong's words?"

Lu Su clasped his fist and said, "Master, Yuan Tan obviously wants to take advantage of us. But at this time it is also a great opportunity to seize Xuzhou, Yanzhou."

Zhou Yu nodded and said: "Zi Jing is absolutely right!" Then he clasped his fist to Sun Jian and said, "Master, our army can immediately mobilize and divide the troops into two groups, one attack on Xuzhou and the other attack on Yanzhou. The two soldiers and horses don’t care about the pass along the way. Just attack Yanzhou and Xuzhou. Judging from the current situation, there is an 80% chance of winning."

After hearing Zhou Yu's words, Sun Jian couldn't help but make up his mind. An order was issued immediately, ordering the infantry horses stationed near Jiangxia to assemble to Huainan immediately, and at the same time making Sun Ce stationed in Huainan ready to attack. After doing this, Sun Jian asked Yuan Tan's messenger to be called to control.

It is said that Cao Cao led the army all the way to the east, crossing the Yellow River, and within ten days connecting to the cities of Dongping, Dong'e, Jinan, Tai'an, Taishan, etc., and then divided into two roads, all the way from the north, bypassing Taishan and approaching Qingzhou, and the other way, approaching the south of Taishan. The State of Lu. Cao Jun was very powerful, but Yuan Jun was defeated in a row by Lien Chan. The whole Qingzhou was already in a precarious state. Yuan Tan has now transferred all the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized to Qingzhou, preparing to resist desperately by virtue of the city wall. However, both the officials and the people are very pessimistic about whether they can hold Qingzhou City. First, the Wei army was aggressive, and during the second coming to Qingzhou, they were attacked one after another. The moat outside the city has long been filled and it is too late to dredge. , And the city walls were damaged too late to be repaired.

In the evening of that day, Xin Ping returned home after his discussion in the governor's mansion. My heart was so frustrated that I could not help but sigh.

The wife offered tea and couldn't help asking: "Master has something to worry about?"

Xin Ping put down the tea bowl, sighed, and frowned, "I didn't expect the situation to reach this point! Now that Cao Cao's army is under pressure, I really don't know if Qingzhou can be kept!"

The wife hurriedly said: "Master, my concubine heard that'the gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall', and said that'good birds choose trees and dwell on them.' Since the Yuan Family Mansion is about to fall, why don't you plan ahead?"

Xin Ping frowned and thought.

Soon after, Cao Cao personally led a large army and soldiers to the city, shouting challenges, the huge sound shook the mountain, and Qingzhou soldiers and people were frightened and frightened all day long.

A general Cao Jun suddenly went out to the city gate, raised his sword and shouted: "I am General Pound, Qingzhou Rats will come out to die soon!"

Yuan Tan couldn't help feeling annoyed, turned his head to look at the generals under his command, and asked, "Who can fight him!" Dang even a burly general clasped his fist and said: "The final general is willing to take Pound's head to the lord!"

Yuan Tan saw that it was general Jiang Qi, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Jiang Qi will be able to kill the generals!" Then he said: "If Jiang Qi, if you kill Pound, I will be promoted to general under my command!" Jiang Qi was excited. When he got up, he immediately lifted the sword and went down the city wall.

The city gate opened, and the drums thunderous, Jiang Qi rushed out of the city gate on a group of horses and horses with a broadsword, and shouted at Pound sternly: "Ponder Piff, I'll come to general Jiang Qi, here to get your dog's head! "Screaming, he rode his horse and rushed towards Pound. Pound sneered coldly and urged his horse to fight. The soldiers on both sides shouted, and the sound of war drums rang and earth-shaking.

In a blink of an eye, the two riders met, only a loud bang was heard, and the two broadswords slammed into each other in mid-air, shaking the audience. The soldiers on both sides couldn't help but boiled with enthusiasm, and the shouts were like a violent wind and tsunami, one after another.

Pound and Jiang Qi fought, the two swords danced in cold light, and the thrilling clashing sound was endless, as if two tigers were fighting for their lives on the top of the cliff, the audience couldn't help but be frightened!

Ten rounds are irrelevant, and 20 rounds are irrelevant.

However, at this moment, Dangdang Dangdang's golden bell was remembered on the city. Jiang Qi was shocked, but in fact he suddenly vented, but Pound was still fiercely attacking and killing! Jiang Qi couldn't stand it, and hurriedly turned his head and defeated!

Jiang Qi went straight to the gate, and the gate closed quickly. Pound did not come after him. He raised his sword and roared loudly. Cao Jun's generals shouted, and his momentum became stronger than before.

Jiang Qi ran back to the city wall and exclaimed in annoyance: "The final general and Pound were inextricably killed, why did the lord suddenly retreat with gold?!"

When Yuan Tan saw Jiang Qi speaking to himself like this, he was displeased, snorted, and said angrily: "If I hadn't paid the gold in time, you would have died under the horse at this moment!"
