It’s not that Yuan Shao didn’t want to control the whole territory of Jizhou, but that Huang Zhong’s three cities defended Handan, Jiqiu and Wei County. After his 200,000 troops attacked with all their strength for more than ten days, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured. The city is still as solid as a rock, motionless. However, if they do not capture these three cities and directly send troops to attack Yecheng, the three cavalry under Huang Zhong's trio will pose a threat to Yuan Shao's army.

Just as Yuan Shao was riding a tiger once again, news came from Bohai and Puyang. The news from the Bohai Sea made Yuan Shao furious. There were 20,000 cavalry soldiers in the Bohai Sea. They came and went like the wind. Although they have not captured any county town yet, there are dozens of Wubaos in the Bohai Sea. All the materials in the fort that could be removed were removed, and all the materials that could not be removed were burnt out.

There were not many cavalry under Yuan Shao, and they were all taken away by Yuan Shao this time. The Bohai prefect was helplessly watching these cavalry raging outside the city, and the only thing he could do now was to ask Yuan Shao for help.

The twenty thousand cavalrymen who appeared in Jizhou were Huang Xu's five thousand cavalry and Gongsunyue's ten thousand cavalry. After they joined forces, the two of them rushed directly into the territory of Bohai from Guangyang. Huang Xu knew that, as the place where Yuan Shao started, Bohai must be the most important. Now that most of the cavalry in Jizhou are transferred to the west to fight against the Sizhou army, the territory of the Bohai Sea must be empty, so it just happens to be able to make a upset inside.

As early as the beginning of the assembly of the two armies, Huang Xu told Gongsun Yue that this time the troops should be reaped, Gongsun could use it. As long as his grandson is more admired, Sizhou Army will not get involved.

With Huang Xu's promise, Gongsun was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth. Jizhou Fushu has almost caught up with Wei Jun in the past few years. Although the city of Bohai cannot be captured this time, there are countless clan docks outside the city. There is no oil and water in it, and he would be killed. Won't believe it.

Sure enough, after the two men led the army into the territory of the Bohai Sea, they were still more than a hundred miles away from Zhangwu, the northernmost county town in the Bohai Sea. Gongsun Yue’s scouts discovered a Dawu Fort with a wall as high as nearly two feet and a circumference of several miles. , With the words "Xiejiabao" written on it.

The two were overjoyed, and upon an order, the 20,000 cavalry rushed towards the dock ten miles away, shouting loudly.

The army stopped one mile away from the fort, and the two led dozens of guards slowly approaching the fort. At this time, the inside of the fort was in chaos. Tens of thousands of cavalry suddenly appeared outside the fort. Everyone knew that the opponent was coming. The person is not good.

The Xie family was originally Zhang Wu's big family. When Yuan Shao first came to Bohai a few years ago, his clan turned to Yuan Shao, so the power in Zhang Wu was even stronger. In order to stabilize his rule, Yuan Shao also arbitrarily wins over the local family. Over the years, several children of the Xie family have also entered Yuan Shao's chariot general's mansion.

With the children of the family serving in the general's mansion, the Xie family must know the situation and trends of the soldiers and horses in Jizhou. There were not many cavalry in Jizhou. Most of them have already been with Yuan Cheqi on the expedition to Sizhou. Now the tens of thousands of cavalry outside Wubao must be enemies and non-friends.

The Xiejiabao of Zhang Wu is the largest dock for the Xie family outside the city, and the largest manor of the Xie family. There are hundreds of tenants and nearly a thousand servants of the Xie family. There are about five thousand people in Dingkou.

The tens of thousands of acres of farmland around Wubao belonged to the Xie family, and the head was a steward of the Xie family named Xie Cheng.

Xie Cheng also served in the army, but at that time the Xie family was not as powerful as it is now, so after being injured in the army, Xie Cheng retired from the position of the army chief. Because he was familiar with military affairs, the family Give him the largest but also the most remote dock.

Most of the family members have lived in Zhangwu City, and important members have settled in Nanpi City.

Because he came from a family and he was in the army, Xie Cheng is still very capable. After taking over the management of this dock, he managed it well in a few years. He was praised by the family elders and the family trusted him even more. , Let him manage this dock.

Over the years, Xie Cheng’s life in the fort has been quite comfortable. It can be said that he is the emperor of this Wubao. He is the same. Every year, he only needs to send sufficient money and food to the family according to the rules of the clan, and no one will take care of him. Up.

Since the army was dispatched, Xie Cheng, based on years of experience in the army, sent out several riding guards in the fort with the purpose of listening to the situation of Gongsun Zan in Youzhou in the north. He knew that Gongsun Zan and Huangfu were superb. The relationship was very good, so out of caution, the guards were sent to patrol the north.

Who knows he really got it right. Yesterday afternoon, only two of the guards sent came back. The news was that a cavalry with a number of 20,000 appeared to the north, and they would be able to arrive at the dock at the latest tomorrow. Fort here.

The news scared Xie Cheng. There were 20,000 cavalrymen. As far as he knew, there were only 20,000 elite cavalrymen under the generals. The rest were just dozens of nearly 100 guard cavalry under the generals. And this time , Gongsun sent 20,000 cavalry to the battle at the same time, then how many foot soldiers are there behind them?

The difficulty says, did Gongsunzan invade Jizhou in an all-round way? No, I didn’t receive a letter from the family saying that Gongsun Zan was invading the city. When I thought about this, Xie Cheng calmed down quickly. Without an army of infantry, no matter how many cavalry came, he would not attack the city. Wubao is actually almost a small county town. Believe that the other party will not attack yourself here, but the corresponding preparation is still necessary.

After calming down, Xie Cheng ordered all tenant tenants and servants outside the fort to retreat to Wubao, and ordered the Wubao guards to prepare for the battle. At the same time, they sent several people and two horses to warn the county. He also ordered the young and strong capitals in the fort to be organized into teams to help guard the fort.

After a day and night of preparations, the cavalry in Youzhou finally arrived under Wubao.

Seeing the cavalry surging like tides outside the fort and covering the sky, the guards and the people on the wall of the fort were pale with fright. Some people even lost their weapons in the two battles. The child fell on the wall of the fort.

"Bang Dang."

Everyone was startled by the sudden sound above the quiet fort wall. Xie Cheng turned his head to look, and saw a servant collapsing on the fort wall with a pale face, and the ring-head knife in his hand fell on his body. Next, he murmured to himself: "I don't want to die, I don't want to die..."

Xie Cheng was furious, stepped forward quickly, picked up the servant, and shouted angrily: "You coward, stand up quickly."
