In the military camp outside Yecheng, Jizhou, the string sounds trembled on the school ground.

Whoosh swish swish swish...

...Swoosh...

The crossbow strings stirred, and a row of black shadows that went straight through the straw man opposite the school ground. A group of Jizhou officials wearing official robes surrounded Yuan Shao, wearing armor and swords, and wearing golden armored hair collars. Looking at the soldiers over to check the results of the firing of the crossbow, someone raised a straw man and ran over to present the figure with the highest position in the middle.

Yuan Shao fiddled with a crossbow arrow stuck in the body of the straw man and did not penetrate it, and shook his head: "After the improvement, the power is much stronger than the previous crossbows, but there are still shortcomings in the middle. If it is against Gongsun Zhi's cavalry, these crossbows may be able to withstand a few breaths, and it will be useless."

Among the military officers, Zhang He, with a slightly thin cheek and short beard and thick eyebrows, took the crossbow arrow from the straw man, looked carefully, and nodded: "The lord is right. Not only is there a problem with the crossbow body, but the crossbow arrow is also not sharp enough. I heard that Gongsun Zhi has a heavy armored cavalry under his command. If he faces the rush directly and cannot even break the opponent's armor, it would be better not to use it."

Next to him, Shen Pei frowned slightly. He was in charge of military affairs and improved the crossbows to prevent Gongsun Zhi's cavalry. After Zhang He said this, he felt a little uncomfortable. "The white wolf's heavy cavalry is a minority after all, and our Jizhou's powerful crossbows are famous all over the world. In the battle of Jieqiao, a thousand powerful crossbows wiped out all the white horses under Yan Gang's command. Could it be that Gongsun Zhi's cavalry were forged with iron? I didn't expect that General Zhang would be so powerful and exaggerate."

"You are so light-hearted. You are in the back, but you know that our generals have personally attacked him?"

"Have I never seen Gongsun Zhi's wolf rider?"

"... Have you ever faced it directly!"

"How can General Zhang be a pervert? I am a strategist, how can I face it directly!"

The two of them quarreled faintly. Yuan Shao looked at the crossbow arrow in his hand and chuckled. The four generations and three officials came from the family, and they were both civil and military. They were naturally the throne of the Nine Five. They were also familiar with the balance and the way of using people. Zhang He was originally a famous general in the Zhang family in Jizhou. He was originally a military Sima under Han Fu. After Han Fu fell, he naturally joined Yuan Shao's disciples. He was brave and scheming, calm and calm, and loved him. He took charge of the army alone and became the fourth person who succeeded Wen Chou, Yan Liang and Han Meng.

In the entire Jizhou system, Yuan Shao is actually very clear about who is not harmonious with whom, but this is what he just needs. It seems that outsiders are actually in control of the internal struggles under his command.

"It is a fact that the strong crossbow needs to be improved, and it is not to be argued. I have also learned about the Gongsun Zhi cavalry, but that was a few years ago when hunting in the deep mountains. Only by being careful can you not be swallowed by tigers. What Yan Yi said is not unreasonable." Yuan Shao handed the crossbow arrow to the soldiers, looked at the two of them and smiled, "... But you can't be too cautious, otherwise the soldiers below will think that my general is so timid before they can beat him? Yes, don't you think?"

"But...yes, what the lord said was so much, He was too cautious."

"Haha... I won't talk about this anymore. A few days ago, the newspaper in Youzhou said that there were traces of troops and horses being mobilized in Shanggu County. Unfortunately, Gongsun Zhi built Juyong Pass earlier and cut off Youzhou. Otherwise, the information would be more detailed, but I feel that this person would definitely not move troops."

In the crowd, Guo Tu stepped forward and made a small step: "Lord, maybe Bailang wants to go to the grasslands in western Liaoning to bypass Yuyang County and guide Liaodong."

"Liaodong? This is possible..." Yuan Shao lowly frowned and pondered, walking on the school ground with his hands in his arms, "... Although Liaodong prefect Gongsun Du said that it was not his own family, no wonder... I sent people to recruit people several times, but he was just dealing with the middle. It seems that he had already secretly communicated with Gongsun Zhi."

He is already the largest prince in the world and the richest. The words he said at this time are naturally very important. Guo Tu and Feng Ji looked at each other and bowed: "Lord, this is a great opportunity. Once Gongsun Zhi's troops enter Liaodong, we will intercept them from behind, and then join forces with the Liaodong Xianbei and Wuhuan to combine 100,000 troops to suppress him and even trap him there. Gongsun Du from Liaodong is also a tyrant who is inclined to the flames and power. He will not be disobedient when he sees things, and he will turn against him at the last moment."

"We also agree with this plan." As if Han Heng, general Han Qiong, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang agreed.

Tian Feng, whose hair was black and white, had complex eyes and stepped forward to lower his voice: "Lord, Gongsun Zhi is quick and wise, and his sexuality is cunning and cruel. How could he not be prepared for such a big move? Feng is worried that he has another plan, so he should prevent it in advance."

"Haha! Yuan Hao is too safe and raised the white wolf." Yuan Shao laughed and turned around and patted him on the shoulder. "Jizhou is no longer the same as before. In the past, I was sitting in Jizhou. People were not determined and the soldiers were not strong, so I was fooled by him and escaped. Just like the Jizhou administration for several years, the soldiers were strong and the food was sufficient. How could the generals who were killed and attacked were comparable to those of his poor five counties? If I faced this person again, I would definitely be taken down in one battle and killed with a sword to avenge my previous shame!"

He said this with great momentum, his eyes swept across his faces, and most of them were silent. The heroic figure on the opposite side was also considered to be the four states captured by military forces. They are usually humble and polite, but at this time they are not angry and powerful, which makes people dare not look directly at them.

While talking, a cavalry rushed in at the gate of the camp. After the soldiers wanted to stop the person from dressing, they let him go directly. When they heard the sound of horse hooves, Yuan Shao looked at him. He was a young man in his twenties, wearing beautiful clothes, but he was not lazy. He tied the reins and steadily stopped the war horse at a distance of more than ten steps, jumped off the horse and went straight towards Yuan Shao.

"Father..." Before the person could approach, his voice came over anxiously.

"My son is going to be punished by riding a horse into the military camp, so I won't be the case!" Yuan Shao's face was serious, but he had no intention of blame in his eyes. The person came was his second son Yuan Xi. When the other party approached, he reached out and swept his thin shoulders before he could finish his words, "...... How could he be insignificant in front of all the generals and counselors? He was so panicked like something!"

Yuan Xilai didn't have time to answer, so he quickly took out a simple silk from his sleeve and handed it over, "...... The child did not intend. This was when he was on an outing with Mi'er in the suburbs. When he saw the information sent by the fast horse, he had to deliver it to him in person."

On the opposite side, Yuan Shao glanced at him, spread out his silk, his smile froze, his lips tightly pursed, and he was trembling with anger. He said in a low voice: "Wu Ruan Pass was attacked..." and disappeared in the brilliant sky.

...

The mountains are majestic, and in the drizzle, the sound of boiling fighting continues to the top of the city.

Blood flowed across the slippery stone bricks.

The corpse that broke its stomach fell down and fell to the top of the city. The vast black soldier carried the ladder and continued to surging up the blood-stained swords smashed the enemy general's weapons. The serious and silent general was the first to climb over the wall and stood opposite the crowd that rushed, swung his sword and shouted: "Get into the camp, kill."

Countless blood, mixed with dripping rain, fell on the pass that was about to capsize.

The killing continued to push away, and the once lost and nameless general roared, leading the team to show his majestic side again in front of the world. No one fought, and his rolling body screamed and roared, falling over the high wall with moss.

Xu Rong stood under the banner and looked up at the killing on the city wall. When the raindrops fell on his face, he raised his hand: "Second Team, continue to follow, don't give Jizhou soldiers a moment of breathing."

"yes!"
