The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 200 Helpless
"My lord, there are [-] soldiers and horses from all over Youzhou, and the rest are on the road. Because they are scattered all over the place and it is difficult to gather them, they can't arrive according to the lord's order." Ju Shou said helplessly to Yuan Shao.

"Where are Yingjie and Zhang Nan's army now? I ordered him to lead an army of [-] to come. This is the time." Yuan Shao thought of the [-] army outside Macheng, and he ordered Yingjie and Zhang Nan to lead the army. Divide the troops into two groups, and lead [-] troops to defend Zhang Fei's army in Macheng along the way, and the remaining [-] troops came to join him.

"My lord, my subordinates have just received an urgent report from the two generals Yingjie and Zhang Nan. The two generals quarreled endlessly, and the two generals sent large armies to besiege many times, but Zhang Fei's soldiers and horses were all cavalry, and they all returned in vain. The army was restrained by Zhang Fei, unable to move, unable to come and join the lord's army." Guo Tu immediately stood up. Come out and report the situation on Yingjie's side.

"Yingjie and Zhang Nan are really useless. One hundred thousand troops are trapped by Zhang Fei's [-] soldiers. Order Yingjie and Zhang Nan. Within ten days, I will see [-] soldiers, otherwise military law will be used!" Yuan Shao at that time was not at all afraid that Chen Ziming was a fake. After all, since his debut, Chen Ziming had never failed, and he had a lot of tricks and plans.

Moreover, the soldiers and horses led by Chen Ziming were very powerful, and Yuan Shao had to admit this. Watching his battle against the three northern tribes, it can be seen that Chen Ziming's army completely crushed the three northern tribes, and they all won more with less.

Xu Huang defended Goguryeo's 20 troops with [-] troops, Zhang Fei confronted Wuheng's tens of thousands of troops with [-] cavalry, and Zhao Yun's [-] cavalry sneaked thousands of miles to attack Wuheng's court and Goguryeo's royal city. After the battle, one can imagine how strong the combat power is.

These victories are all there, and they are all made with real guns and swords. At least Yuan Shao knows that the soldiers and horses in his hands do not have such abilities.

"My lord, Chen Ziming's army has arrived outside the city, and we have lost our chance to defeat the enemy. We should retreat to Beiping County, and the army will stick to the important town of Beiping. There will be no end to the city. We will defend the city, and then mobilize all kinds of troops to encircle and wipe it out. The best policy." Seeing that Yuan Shao only cared about losing his temper, Ju Shou didn't come up with a feasible solution, so he stepped forward to offer advice.

"Although Yangle is not a fortified city, there is an army of 14 in the city, and Chen Ziming has no more than [-] troops. The law of war says that if you attack five times, you can divide them. If the enemy is small, you can fight.

Although Chen Ziming's soldiers and horses are brave, they can break through the city defended by our 14 troops. I think there is no need to retreat, and we should defend Yangle City. When all the troops arrive, we can defeat Chen Ziming's soldiers. "

Guo Tu immediately opposed Ju Shou's strategy, and now Yuan Shao's strength is indeed very strong, and his troops are a little bit more than Chen Ziming's. Guo Tu is not an idiot, he dare not fight casually, but he is still sure of defending the city.

"No, Yangle City is not a dangerous place, and it has a wide surrounding area. If Chen Ziming sends a large army to blockade the four directions, encircle them without attacking, within ten days, the food and grass in the city will be exhausted. At that time, the 14 troops will be defeated without attacking Yes." When Ju Shou heard this, he immediately jumped up and defended Yang Le. Chen Ziming was indeed unable to attack, but why did he attack.

With Chen Ziming's intelligence, how could he fail to see the shortcomings of Yangle City's lack of food and grass? When Chen Ziming's troops surrounded Yangle City, Yuan Shao would be in a dilemma.

"This..." Guo Tu is not a good planner, but he is not a military idiot either. If Chen Ziming really told Ju Shou that he would besiege Yangle, the food and grass in Yangle City would not be able to consume at all.

But soon, Guo Tu turned his eyes and thought of a solution: "Master, you can order General Wen Chou to lead some troops to camp on Yangle Mountain in the north of Yangle City, forming a corner with Yangle City. If you retreat, you can defend, you can keep Lecheng in Yangyang, and you can also keep the grain roads in Lecheng in Yangyang unimpeded.”

"My lord, Yangle Mountain is gentle and not a good place to be stationed. It should be withdrawn to Beiping County to wait for the follow-up army." It can't be called a mountain, but it's more or less called a small soil bag.

"It took us a lot of time and effort to occupy half of the land in the west of Liaoning. Why did we retreat so easily? Besides, Chen Ziming has only [-] soldiers and horses, and we have an army of tens of thousands. Why should we be afraid? The prestige." Guo Tu couldn't think of the two of them in terms of strategy, Ju Pei and Ju Shou, so he had no choice but to play helpless.

"You ignorant villain, don't miss your lord. My lord, it's the best policy to retreat quickly and attack them later." Ju Shou was furious and scolded Guo Tu villain on the spot. As soon as these words came out, Guo Tu and Yuan Shao's expressions changed. Everything has changed.

"Hmph! Gongze is a villain, and I am also a stupid person?!" Yuan Shao looked at Jushou with a sullen face. Guo Tu was his appointed military adviser, but Jushou called him an ignorant villain. How could Yuan Shao live with face.

"My lord, if you don't mean this, my lord, don't blame me." Seeing that Yuan Shao was angry, the examiner at the side hurried forward to intercede for fear that he would lose the award.

"Hmph! Don't say any more. I am determined to order Wen Chou to lead [-] troops to Yangle Mountain to form a horn with Yangle City. Let the follow-up army escort the food and grass to Yangle City. I want to fight with you here." Chen Ziming will fight to the death." Yuan Shao saw that the counselors in his hands were talking more and more outrageous, and they were so noisy for a long time that they couldn't pay attention to it. He heard that Guo Tu was right, he had more soldiers and horses than Chen Ziming, and soldiers from all over the country were coming one after another. The current situation is in his favor, how could he be willing to give up half of Liaoxi County and retreat to Beiping County.

"Hey!" Ju Shou saw that the important matter had been decided and he couldn't change anything, so he could only sigh, and retreated with the judge and others.

"Zhengnan, you and I both know Chen Ziming's ability. My lord doesn't listen to good words, so I'm afraid I'll lose. I don't know if there is a way to rescue Zhengnan?" Although Ju Shou was very disappointed with Yuan Shao's decision, he was absolutely convinced of Yuan Shao's decision. Loyalty, since you can't change Yuan Shao's decision, then find a way to save the unfavorable situation.

"Dividing troops is an appropriate method, but Yangle Mountain is definitely not a good place, and Yangle City is surrounded by plains, so there is no other way. We can only adapt to the situation." The judge did not agree with Yuan Shao's order, but he couldn't change anything. There is no good way.

"Zhengnan, no, we will send someone to send the Lord to Bingzhou Yuanhao..." Ju Shou said to the judge in a soft voice.

"Well, this plan is feasible, but you need to be careful and don't let Guo Tu know about it." The judge nodded slightly, agreeing with Jushou's method, because Bingzhou has nearly [-] soldiers and horses, and they are all elites. If things change, Tian Feng might be able to lead an army to save one or two.
