A lieutenant general walked out, looked at Gongsun Chan and said.

Gongsun Zhan's face became even more gloomy when he heard the lieutenant's words.

Once Yuan Shao's army rested, it would inevitably increase its attack on Youzhou City.

Even if Gongsun Chan knew this, there was no way to stop it.

Now he can no longer lead the army out of the city and kill Yuan Shao's army.

All he could do was rely on the strong walls of Youzhou to defend it.

"How much food is there in Youzhou City, and what about the casualties of the soldiers?"

Gongsun Chan looked at a scholar standing aside, who had followed Gongsun Chan for many years.

What he did was to record the number of casualties and the consumption of grain and grass every time Gongsun Chan sent troops.

"Your Lord!"

"The grain and grass in Youzhou City are enough for the soldiers in the city to eat for four days at most, and more than half of the soldiers in the city have suffered casualties. "

"The morale of the soldiers has begun to gradually become low in the past few days of defensive battles. "

The scholar looked at Gongsun Zhan with a hint of worry on his face.

He assisted Gongsun Chan for many years, and once Youzhou City was breached, not only Gongsun Chan would end miserably, but also his end would be just as miserable.

"Your Lord!"

"More than half of our army has suffered casualties, and the army under Yuan Shao's command has also suffered heavy casualties in the past few days. "

A lieutenant general walked out, looked at Gongsun Chan and said.

Gongsun Chan waved his hand and motioned for the lieutenant general to go back.

How could he not know that the soldiers under Yuan Shao's command also suffered heavy casualties, but the number of soldiers brought by the generals under Yuan Shao's command.

At least 10,000 more than the number of soldiers under his command, even with heavy casualties.

The number of soldiers who can fight is still more than the number of soldiers under his command.

Hearing the words of the deputy general and the scholar, Gongsun Chan knew that Youzhou could support it for four or five days at most.

"Did the envoy sent to Xuzhou send a letter back?"

Gongsun Zhan rubbed his forehead and looked at the scholar on the side.

"My lord, I haven't received the letter from the messenger yet, and I haven't seen the messenger come back!"

The scholar heard Gongsun Zhan's words and hurriedly spoke.

"Hey!"

Gongsun Zhan sighed deeply when he heard the scholar's words, Yuan Shao was still the county guard of Bohai.

Sent an envoy to Youzhou to form an alliance with himself to attack Jizhou Mu Hanfu, and Yuan Shao promised that once he captured Jizhou City.

He will send half of Jizhou back to him, and Gongsun Chan has long been eyeing Han Fu's Jizhou.

Zhengchou had no chance to attack Han Fu, and when he heard the words of Yuan Shao's envoy, Gongsun 07 Zhan immediately agreed.

It will be easier to attack Jizhou with Yuan Shao, and he can also get half of Jizhou, which is good news for him.

It didn't take long for the two of them to defeat Han Fu's army one after another, and Han Fu had no choice but to give Jizhou Mu to Yuan Shao.

Gongsun Chan was overjoyed to know the news, Yuan Shao became the pastor of Jizhou, and he would also get half of Jizhou.

After Yuan Shao became the pastor of Jizhou, he did not keep his promise, and not only sent himself to ask for half of the envoys from Jizhou.

also asked the messenger to pass a message to himself, and not a single city in Jizhou would be given to him.

Gongsun Chan was furious when he heard the messenger's words, and Yuan Shao was so treacherous.

How could he tolerate it? Gongsun Chan immediately raised troops to attack Yuan Shao.

At the beginning, Yuan Shao was defeated and retreated, and won all the way, and Gongsun Zan carelessly fell into the trap of Yuan Shao's strategists.

The army entered the trap set by Yuan Shao's strategists, and this time he was not only defeated but also suffered a setback in morale.

Since then, the generals under Yuan Shao have started a counteroffensive with a large army, and Gongsun Chan has been defeated and retreated.

In the end, he had to return to Youzhou and rely on Youzhou's defense to resist the enemy.

In the next few days, although Yuan Shao's army failed to capture Youzhou, the soldiers under Gongsun Zhan's command were also seriously damaged.

The consumption of grain and grass is also very large, and the situation in Youzhou is precarious.

Gongsun Chan had no choice but to ask for support from the other princes, after all, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao were both members of the Yuan clan.

Even if he sent an envoy to Yuan Shu for help, Yuan Shu would not send troops to support him.

Liu Biao's strength under Jingzhou is not weak, but Liu Biao is mediocre and does not dare to offend Yuan Shao.

The tiger Sun Jian could have called for help, but Sun Jian was next to Jiangdong in Liu Biao's Jingzhou.

Once Sun Jian sent troops to support, Liu Biao would inevitably attack Jiangdong.

In the end, Gongsun Zhan thought of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's strength increased greatly after conquering Dong Zhuo.

Not only did he become a Yanzhou pastor and conquer Xuzhou without bloodshed, but he was also assisted by the strategist Lin Yuan.

When Lin Yuan's ability was conquered against Dong Zhuo, Gongsun Zan knew it.

Cao Cao's strength was no worse than Yuan Shao's, and Gongsun Chan decided to ask Cao Cao for help.

He sent an envoy to Xuzhou and begged Cao Cao to send troops to support him.

The messenger sent out a few days later did not return, nor did the letter arrive.

Gongsun Zhan knew that Cao Cao would not send troops to support him.

After all, his relationship with Cao Cao is also average, Cao Cao led a large army to support him, and other princes will also target Cao Cao's city.

"Could it be that the sky is going to kill my grandson!"

There was a hint of anger on Gongsun Zhan's face, and he was very unwilling to let himself fall into such a fate.

Everyone in the hall looked at Gongsun Zhan, and the anger on Gongsun Zhan's face was clearly seen by them.

"Lord!"

"Even if the soldiers rely on Youzhou to resist Yuan Shao's army, they can only hold out for a few days!"

"The lord should leave Youzhou with soldiers who are still fighting and go to other princes. "

"Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, and the lord's strength will become stronger in the future. "

"Find Yuan Shao for revenge, and then not only can you take back Youzhou, but also take Yuan Shao's Jizhou. "

The scholar looked at Gongsun Chan and said softly.

"What Mr. said is reasonable, why don't you leave Youzhou with the army, and have the opportunity to take revenge on Yuan Shao in the future. "

"Youzhou City can't hold out for a few days, please think twice. "

"The lord's withdrawal from Youzhou is just for revenge in the future, and the world will not laugh at the lord!"

Several lieutenants in the hall heard the scholar's words and began to dissuade Gongsun Zhan.

"Smack!"

Gongsun Chan slapped the table in front of him fiercely, with anger on his face.

The scholar and several lieutenants saw that Gongsun Chan was so angry, and no longer spoke out to dissuade him.

Gongsun Chan looked at a few people in the hall, and said with a hint of anger in his voice:

"This general Rong Ma punished the Huns all his life to beg Dong Zhuo, and became famous all over the world. "

"Even if General Ben dies, he will not flee Youzhou with a large army!"

Gongsun Zhan knew that what the deputy general and scholar had just said was a solution, and if it was other princes, they might do so.

Gongsun Chan is a person with a strong personality and will not do things that endure humiliation and steal life.

He is ready to live and die with Youzhou, and when Youzhou City is broken by Yuan Shao's army, it will be the day of his death.

When the deputy general and the scholar heard Gongsun Zhan's words, they glanced at each other and didn't say anything more.

"Report!"

"Good news, good news!"

A soldier walked into the City Lord's Mansion with a happy look on his face.

All eyes looked at the soldiers who came in, and there was excitement on their faces.

"Good news? Is it Cao Cao who came with a large army to support General Ben?"

Gongsun Chan looked at the soldier standing in the middle, with excitement on his face.

At this time, there can be good news, but he can only ask Cao Cao for help successfully.

Cao Cao came to Youzhou with a large army to help him fight against Yuan Shao's army.

It wasn't Cao Cao who came with a large army to support the lord. "

Gongsun Chan and the others in the hall instantly became lost when they heard the soldier's words.

If it weren't for Cao Cao leading the army to support Youzhou, where would there be good news. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The soldier looked at the lost Gongsun Chan and the others, and hurriedly said:

"The information sent back by the spies in Jizhou City, Sun Jian and his army are already outside Jizhou City. "

"Now Sun Jian's army is attacking Jizhou with all its might, and it won't be long before Sun Jian can capture Jizhou. "

After the soldier finished speaking, there was a look of excitement on his face.

Everyone was stunned when they heard the soldier's words, it was not Cao Cao who came to support with a large army.

They thought it wouldn't be good news, but they didn't expect that it was Sun Jian who led a large army to attack Jizhou.

This was great news for them, and everyone was shocked by the news for a while.

"Hahaha!"

"Heaven will not die, my father-in-law Sun Zhan, I didn't expect Sun Wentai to come with a large army to attack Jizhou. "

"That's great news!"

Gongsun Chan reacted, and finally had a smile on his face.

The other lieutenants looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

During this time, the battle has been defeated, and everyone has almost forgotten how to laugh.

"Lord, although this is good news, there is indeed a trace of strangeness!"

The scholar looked at Gongsun Chan with a hint of doubt on his face. []

The lieutenant generals glanced at each other when they heard the scholar's words, and their eyes looked at the scholar together.

Gongsun Chan also looked at the scholar, and he didn't understand that the scholar thought it was strange.

"The lord sent a messenger to Cao Cao for help a few days ago, why is it really Sun Jian who came to support?"

"What's more, Sun Jian is attacking Jizhou, not the army that came to Youzhou and the lord to sandwich Yuan Shao!"

The scholar looked at Gongsun Chan and expressed his doubts.

Hearing the scholar's words, several lieutenant generals suddenly realized that the lord did not send an envoy to Jiangdong.

Why did Sun Jian come, and Sun Jian attacked Jizhou.

Gongsun Zan was too excited just now to forget about this matter, and he really didn't send a messenger to ask Sun Jian for help.

"Sun Jian and Yuan Shao also have enmity, maybe Sun Jian doesn't want to see Yuan Shao capture Youzhou. "

Sun Jian used the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao and led the army to attack Jizhou, so that Yan Liangwen Chou would inevitably return to Jizhou with the army. “

"Youzhou has a chance to breathe, and Yuan Shao can't capture Youzhou!"

Gongsun Chan pondered for a while, watching the scholar and the deputy general say their thoughts.

Sun Jian knew that Yuan Shao was going to capture Youzhou, so that Yuan Shao would have two state cities, Jizhou and Youzhou.

Sun Jian and Yuan Shao had a grudge and didn't want to see Yuan Shao's strength become stronger, so he chose to lead the army to attack Jizhou and let Yuan Shao's army return to Jizhou.

Several lieutenants nodded slightly, and only this explanation was the most reasonable.

The scholar shook his head slightly when he heard Gongsun Zhan's words, pondered for a moment and said:

"The lord did not send an envoy to Jiangdong that day, because he knew that Sun Jian would send a large army to support. "

"Liu Biao will inevitably lead a large army to attack Jiangdong, and now Sun Jian has come to Jizhou with a large army. "

Liu Biao knew the news, and he would definitely not let go of this opportunity, and he would definitely lead a large army to attack Jizhou. "

As soon as the scholar's voice fell, Gongsun Chan was stunned for a moment and then nodded slightly.

The scholar's words were very reasonable, and it was precisely because he knew this that day that he did not send an envoy to Jiangdong to ask Sun Jian for help.

However, Sun Jian still left Jiangdong with his army and attacked Jizhou, which made Gongsun Zan very puzzled.

"My lord, there is only one explanation!"

Sun Jian is betting that Liu Biao will not dare to send troops to attack Jiangdong, or Sun Jian is confident that he will capture Jizhou before Liu Biao captures Jiangdong. "

The scholar looked at Gongsun Chan and said what he thought.

Several lieutenants nodded slightly when they heard the scholar's words, only this explanation was the most reasonable.

When Gongsun Chan heard the scholar's words, he also agreed with the scholar's thoughts.

"Did Yuan Shao's army outside the city retreat and return to Jizhou?"

Gongsun Chan looked at the soldier with a hint of anticipation on his face.

In his opinion, since he already knew that Sun Jian led a large army to attack Jizhou.

Those Yuan Shao's troops outside Youzhou City naturally knew that Jizhou was in danger.

In order to prevent Jizhou from being captured by Sun Jian, Yuan Shao is likely to let Yan Liangwen Chou return to Jizhou with a large army.

In that way, the crisis in Youzhou can be resolved, and he will have a chance to breathe.

The soldier had an embarrassed look on his face when he heard Gongsun Zhan's words, and after a while, he looked at Gongsun Chan and said:

"Your Lord!"

"Yuan Shao's army outside the city did not retreat, and was cooking on the fire. "

"Presumably, after eating, I will continue to attack Youzhou!"

After the soldier finished speaking, the hall instantly became silent.

Several 853 lieutenant generals had shocked looks on their faces, Sun Jian was already attacking Jizhou, and Yuan Shao's army outside Youzhou City had not returned to Jizhou.

Gongsun Chan was also stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted and frowned.

In his opinion, Yuan Shao's army should have left Youzhou at this time, why is he still living and cooking and preparing to attack Youzhou?

The scholar thought for a while, looked at Gongsun Zhan and said, "My lord!"

"Presumably, it was the strategists around Yuan Shao who gave Yuan Shao a strategy, so that the army outside Youzhou City would not support Jizhou but continue to attack Youzhou!"

When Gongsun Zhan heard the scholar's words, he thought for a while and frowned, "Yuan Shao is so confident that Jizhou will not be captured by Sun Jian?"

"Isn't he worried that Sun Jian will attack Jizhou and make him a prisoner?"

Several lieutenant generals nodded when they heard Gongsun Zhan's words, and they thought that what Gongsun Chan said was very reasonable.

When the scholar heard Gongsun Zhan's words, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said, "This is the strategy given by Yuan Shao's strategist. "

Yuan Shao is also gambling, he thinks that Youzhou will definitely be attacked before Jizhou. "

"As long as Youzhou is occupied by the army under Yuan Shao, then Yuan Shao's army will be supporting Jizhou. "

Sun Jian saw that Jizhou could not be captured, so he could only retreat with the army. "

"There is another reason why Yuan Shao did not let the army outside Youzhou return to Jizhou, that is, Liu Biao of Jingzhou. "

"Yuan Shao must have sent an envoy to Jingzhou at this time and asked Liu Biao to attack Jiangdong. "

"Liu Biao and Sun Jian have a grudge, and with Yuan Shao's call for help, he will inevitably lead a large army to attack Jiangdong. "

Sun Jian knew that Liu Biao was attacking Jiangdong, and there were only two options: either to continue attacking Jizhou. "

"Before Youzhou is not broken by Yuan Shao's army, attack Jizhou!"

"Either return to Jiangdong with the army, lest Jiangdong be captured by Liu Biao. "

After the scholar finished speaking, Gongsun Chan pondered for a moment and said:

"Now it's the generals Yuan Shao and Sun Jian who are all gambling, and it depends on who can't hold on first. "

"If Jizhou is attacked by Sun Jian first, even if Jiangdong is occupied by Liu Biao, Sun Jian can use Jizhou as his own city. "

"If Jiangdong is broken first, the army outside Youzhou can withdraw to Jizhou. "

In this way, Youzhou was not breached, but Jiangdong was occupied by Liu Biao, and Sun Jian's army was homeless. "

"This is also a good thing for Yuan Shao, he can carve up Jiangdong with Liu Biao. "

"If Youzhou is breached, Yan Liangwen Chou can rush back to Jizhou with the army. "

Sun Jian saw that Youzhou was broken and Yuan Shao's army also returned to Jizhou, so he could only be forced to withdraw his troops. "

Gongsun Chan had a hint of emotion on his face after speaking, and now the three of them are gambling.

To be precise, Sun Jiangong and Sun Zan gambled with Yuan Shao, betting that they were the ones who won in the end.

The scholar and several lieutenant generals heard Gongsun Zhan's words and nodded slightly, and they also agreed with what Gongsun Chan had just said.

"Report!"

"Lord Yu, the envoy sent to Xuzhou has returned to Youzhou, just outside the Assassin's Mansion!"
