Chapter 539: Youzhou Raiders

Pang Tongdao: "The specific situation is still unclear, but it should be just as the lord said. If Sun Jian hadn't acted, Cao Cao would never have given such big conditions to surrender Yuan Tan suddenly. This is basically keeping the status quo unchanged, just Let Yuan Tan serve Cao Cao in name only. This is not to say that he has captured Qingzhou."

Feng Ji couldn't help but said: "Now Cao Cao has occupied most of the important towns, including Qingzhou City, will Cao Cao return these places to Yuan Tan?"

Pang Tong smiled and shook his head, "This is impossible!" After a pause, "I judge Cao Cao's doing this is just to temporarily stabilize Yuan Tan and turn his head to deal with Sun Jian. Yuan Tan's return to Cao Cao did not come from his sincerity, and Cao Cao did so. The surrender of Yuan Tan is just a stopgap measure, ha ha, the two will go to war again soon."

Chen Lang asked, "How do you think Sun Jian will act?"

Pang Tong said: "If I were Sun Jian, I would definitely split the army, leading Sun Ce to attack Yanzhou all the way, and to sweep Xuzhou under his own leadership! Judging from the current situation, Sun Jian has a great chance to succeed."

Chen Lang thought for a while, and smiled: "These things are not our business for the time being. It is better for us to concentrate on dealing with the things in front of us." Everyone couldn't help but smile, and Feng Ji clasped his fists and said: "The lord is wise, we should concentrate now. The energy has completely resolved Yuan Xi’s affairs and regained the entire Youzhou!"

Ju Yi said: "Even though Yuan Xi retreated to You Beiping and joined Yuan Shang, the combined forces of his two families were no more than tens of thousands of remnants. I think our army should attack as soon as possible, so that we can level the right in one fell swoop while the panic is still pending. Peiping, eliminate Er Yuan and completely control Youzhou." Yuan Shang, the youngest of the three Yuan family, was originally the strongest of the three, but not long ago, he lost the entire Jizhou with thousands of remnants and defeated generals. Go north to Yuan Xi. Yuan Xi took them in, but Yuan Xi did not reuse them under Jushou's suggestion. Instead, he threw them in the remote You Beiping, but he didn't expect the war to develop to the point where you are now. Youzhou fell, Yuan Xi Also had to flee to You Beiping.

Chen Lang nodded. Pang Tong clasped his fist and said, "Master, his subordinates have a suggestion." Pang Tong's eyes showed an unpredictable expression.

Yuan Shang was very excited when he heard that Yuan Xi was defeated and fled, and he was very excited when he planned to take this opportunity to ridicule Yuan Xi. However, when Yuan Shang saw Yuan Xizhi who was embarrassed, he couldn't help feeling pity for the same illness, but he couldn't say what he originally wanted to ridicule.

The two difficult brothers and sisters got together and were speechless for a long while. Yuan Xi couldn't help sighing, and said in confusion: "I didn't expect the situation to develop to this stage!" Yuan Shang couldn't help but sighed, and couldn't help but say in a complaining tone: "If my brother can help me wholeheartedly, why should we be? It ended up in such a field!" Yuan Xi couldn't help feeling ashamed when he heard the words. To be honest, he was actually unconvinced about Yuan Shang's succession to the throne. Although he had led the army to help Yuan Shang before, he abandoned Yuan Shang at a critical time and led the army back to Youzhou. If it weren't for this, Yuan Shang shouldn't have been defeated so quickly and miserably! But then again, if it were not for Yuan Shang's ulterior motives to keep Yuan Xi's Youzhou Army fighting on the front line and suffer heavy losses, I am afraid that Yuan Xi would not be suspicious of Yuan Shang and chose to protect himself. In the final analysis, the three Yuan brothers have an unshirkable responsibility for the result now.

The interrogator couldn't help sighing, clasping his fists and saying: "Two young masters, now is not the time to say these things. The top priority now is how to deal with the threat of Qin Jun!"

When Er Yuan heard this, he couldn't help showing a look of horror and was silent.

The trial said: "With Chen Lang's disposition, he will be killed soon. For the present plan, we can only strengthen defense and prepare for battle, and immediately send people to the Liaodong Army and Karasuma people for help."

Yuan Xi couldn't help cursing annoyedly: "When they saw our army defeated, they immediately fled out of sight. I am afraid that not only will there be no results, but they will be ridiculed by them!"

The trial partner hurriedly said: "Previously they fled out of the desire to avoid disadvantages, but now the situation is completely different. They understand the truth of the cold. If we can hold You Beiping, they can all. Sit back and relax. On the contrary, they will be under the direct threat of the Qin army. I think they are not so stupid that they can't even see this!" After a pause, "Chen Lang is not without worries, Sun Jian and Cao Cao. Actions always involve his attention, so there are not many Qin troops who come to Youzhou. With the current situation, we can unite the Liaodong Army and the Karasuma Army and can completely resist the offensive of the Qin Army. As long as the offensive of the Qin Army is resisted , When the world changes, we will be able to turn the crisis into peace, and we may even retake Youzhou or even Jizhou."

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang could not help regaining his confidence after hearing the remarks of the interrogation. Yuan Shang praised: "The trial is right!" Yuan Xi stood up and said, "I immediately sent someone to the Karasuma and Liaodong people for help!"

Before the reply from the Liaodong side and the Karasuma side came, the urgent report came. King Qin led a 100,000 army out of Youzhou and went straight to You Beiping to kill. In shock, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang hurriedly ordered the army under his command to prepare for the battle, and at the same time mobilized the people in and outside the city. A tense atmosphere filled the entire You Beiping sky, and everyone was in panic all day long.

Soon after, the Karasuma and Liaodong people, whom Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were looking forward to, finally heard the news, and the two armies were on their way. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were overjoyed. When the news was about to be passed on to all soldiers and civilians, there was a huge cheer from the entire right Beiping.

The soldiers and civilians of You Beiping patrolled the city wall day and night. Although they were nervous at this moment, they were not afraid to fight the Qin army because they had the support.

That night, Yuan Shang returned from patrolling outside. Seeing Yuan Xi sitting behind the desk watching the report, he couldn't help asking: "Second brother, is there news about the Karasuma and Liaodong Army?"

Yuan Xi raised his head and shook his head and said: "There is no news yet. However, according to time estimates, the Karasuma Cavalry should be able to arrive in these two days." Then he smiled: "Maybe the Karasuma Cavalry has arrived, and the Qin Army has not yet arrived. Arrived." Yuan Shang couldn't help laughing.

Immediately, Yuan Shang noticed the interrogation, who was frowning and had not spoken, and couldn't help asking: "Why is your brow frowning? Do you think there is something wrong?"

The interrogation frowned and said: "Not long ago, I received a report from the scout that the Qin army could only march a hundred miles in a day. This makes me very puzzled!"

Yuan Shang said indifferently, "What's wrong with this? The Qin army only experienced a war not long ago, and now they immediately come to fight You Beiping again. The officers and soldiers are inevitably tired, and the slow marching speed is also reasonable." Yuan Xi was convinced. nod.

The judge frowned and said: "The Qin army is no better than other armies! When they fought the Xianbei million army, they had been fighting for several months, but they didn't show the slightest fatigue! I am worried whether Chen Lang will be. What's the conspiracy?"

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang couldn't help worrying, and couldn't stop the feeling of fear in his heart. Yuan Shang immediately put aside the thoughts in his mind, and said in an angry manner: "Don't blow that Chen Lang! He is just a person! What conspiracy and tricks can he have in this situation? Mr. Don't scare yourself!" At this moment, Chen Lang couldn't think of any conspiracy, so he didn't say anything.

At this moment, the scout hurried in from the outside and bowed to Yuan Xi.

Yuan Shang thought it was the Karasuma Cavalry who had arrived. He couldn't help being very excited, and asked impatiently, "Is the Karasuma Cavalry here?" Yuan Xi also looked very hopeful.

The scout shook his head and said anxiously: "The Karasuma Cavalry had already arrived fifty miles away, but for some reason, they suddenly turned around and turned back, and they were faster than when they first came!"

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were shocked, Yuan Xi exclaimed in fright: "What's going on? What the **** is Karasuma people doing?" The scout shook his head and said that he didn't know.

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang looked at each other, and the match frowned, "Perhaps this is the reason why Qin Jun deliberately marched slowly!"

Yuan Xi Yuan Shang's heart was shocked. Yuan Shang said without angrily: "Sir, don't make things so mysterious. I think it's just the Karasuma people who changed their minds temporarily." Then he said to Yuan Xi: "Just ask the second brother to send an envoy to catch up with the Karasuma army, no matter what. They bring it here."

Yuan Xi said: "There is my messenger in the Karasuma army... I will send another messenger." Jiao Shi was summoned, and he immediately sent another messenger to Karasuma. Be sure to stay in Karasuma. Jiao touched the order and left.

It was late at this time, and the moon was already slanting west, but Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang didn't care about the surface of the water. He waited anxiously in the hall, only feeling that time seemed to be freezing slowly, and his heart was anxious.

When the sky was getting bright, there was finally a rush of footsteps outside the door. Yuan Xi Yuan Shang quickly stood up and looked towards the door, only to see two people walking quickly. It was the messenger Yuan Xi sent not long ago and the messenger sent to Karasuma earlier.

When the two arrived in the hall, Yuan Shang asked impatiently before they could see the courtesy; "What's the situation? Is the Karasuma army here?"

The two looked solemn, and the one on the left clasped a fist and said: "The subordinate ran into Master Zhao halfway, and learned that the Karasuma army was returning to their territory at full speed, so they returned with Master Zhao."

Yuan Shang was furious and shouted: "You haven't completed the Lord's order, how can you have the face to come back!"

Yuan Xi asked anxiously, "What is going on? Why did the Karasuma army suddenly turn back? Are they not afraid that it will be their turn after we are finished?"

The Master Zhao clasped his fist and said: "It's really a sudden incident! Just last night, the three Karasuma Masters suddenly received an emergency report. The Xianbei and the Huns suddenly entered their territory. The situation is very serious. So the three adults had to lead the army back to help! The three adults asked me to convey my apologies to the lord!"
