Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Bingzhou, more than ten miles west of Huguan.

With flags flying, more than 20,000 Jizhou troops were retreating to the east. Seeing the tall outline of the Huguan city wall, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But Jushou was riding a horse, looking at the towering city wall from a distance, and couldn't help frowning.

And Wen Chou on the side was dissatisfied directly: "Thinking of my tens of thousands of troops, I got out of the pot with high spirits, and now I retreat in a desperate way, huh!"

"General Wen." Ju Shi said with a calm face: "The purpose of giving up the merge state this time is to help the lord, and now that Dundan has led tens of thousands of cavalry to the south, as long as I wait for the combined forces to defeat Liu Yuqing, then Bingzhou will be a one. Gucheng, take it whenever you want."

Wen Chou snorted: "Mr. Gongyu, I'm a vulgar person, but I can't say you, I only know that you planned the attack on Bingzhou, but now...huh."

Upon hearing this, Jushou could not help but look sad.

Yuan Shao was very courteous to him, so after Jushou decided to serve Yuan Shao, he determined to stand firm among Yuan Shao's staff. Because of Yuan Shao's special treatment before, Yuan Shaojun's Chinese military generals were quite dissatisfied. Jushou was determined to establish his own position, so he proposed to attack Yuan Shao to merge the state, get rid of Lu Bu, and cut off Liu Ye's strategy.

If this strategy is implemented correctly and succeeds in annexing the prefecture for Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao will occupy the three states of You, Hebei, and Hebei, and become the first prince in Hebei. With his birthday, he can even compete with Liu Ye who occupy Guanzhong in time.

Unfortunately, Jushou failed, and Liu Ye reacted quickly.

After Wen Chou snorted coldly, he rode his horse away. Although Jushou's eyes were a little dim, he quickly regrouped and glowed.

"The battle of Yecheng must be won!" Ju Shu clenched his fists, his eyes revealed a complicated look. In fact, when the Wuhuan people went south, Jushou himself was not very satisfied. After all, he was from Jizhou, like the procurator, Tian Feng and others, and the Wuhuan people ravaged Youzhou and Jizhou. How can he not be distressed?

But... there is no way, it has reached the point of life and death, this battle must be won!

Jushou's strategic vision is second to none under Yuan Shao's account, and Tian Feng, Shen Dui, and Feng Ji are incomparable.

"Take the emperor to order the princes" is what Cao Cao did. By supporting the emperor, Cao Cao gained a political advantage in righteousness and was able to level the world. However, the actual proponents of this concept are two people, one is Mao Maojun, a counselor under Cao Cao, and the other is Jushou under Yuan Shao.

It's just that Mao Jie advocated "to serve the emperor to order but not ministers", while Ju Sui was to "hold the emperor to order the princes", although the name is different, but the general idea is close.

The battle of Yecheng is about the world! Once he wins, then the myth of Liu Ye victorious in all battles will be broken by the Jizhou army. When the princes of the world rise up to attack, Yuan Shao can take the opportunity to move westward and southward, and he can take full advantage of Hebei and direct his soldiers to the Central Plains.

Once defeated, Yuan Shao had to gather the remnants and retreat to Youzhou. Moreover, the Yuyang and Shanggu counties had been handed over to the Wuhuan people. How could the fat in his mouth be spit out? With the dilapidated Youzhou, how many soldiers and horses can he feed, how can Yuan Shao contend for the world?

"The battle of Yecheng can only be won, not lost." Jushou said firmly.

More than 20,000 Jizhou troops came slowly in the direction of Huguan. Seeing such a large army above the city, naturally they hurriedly reported to the city guard.

Hum, hurried to the top of the city, the red cloak behind was blown by the gale to hunt and flutter.

He held the head of the city with one hand, and he looked intently and breathed a sigh of relief.

The more than 20,000 large army uniforms outside the city are all in the style of the Jizhou Army, and they are withdrawn from the west under the banner of "Ju". Naturally, they are part of the Jizhou Army led by Jushou.

However, you can't be careless, and you ask: "Close the city gate tightly. You can't open it without instructions from the general."

"Here!" the defender at the head of the city replied loudly.

At this time, the footsteps of the more than 20,000 Jizhou army were getting closer and closer, and the army suddenly galloped out of more than a hundred horses and rode towards the direction of Huguan.

Hundreds of riders separated from each side, and a general with a black armor, a tiger-backed waist and a crab-like face appeared in the middle.

"Doesn't the defenders of the city know this general?" Wen Chou shouted loudly, "Hurry up and open the city gate?"

"General, it is General Wen Chou." The defender on the side was taken aback and hurriedly said.

"Well, I know." Qian Zhao's face was calm, and he waved: "Open the city gate."

The defenders hurriedly went to report, and as the Qianjin Gate slowly fell, the two city gates slowly opened. Wen Chou snorted dissatisfiedly: "It's really unpleasant to open the gates so slowly."

"Enter the city!"

Hundreds of riders rode their horses and rushed into the city of Huguan in one fell swoop, while the recruits had long been waiting on both sides with their soldiers.

"Look at it!" Wen Chou rushed to his side, condescending, and said coldly: "Why is it so slow to open the city gate? Isn't it a missed opportunity?"

"Report to General Wen." Zhao Zhao bent slightly, neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "The general is worried that it is the enemy, so he ordered the city gates to be closed, and asked General Wen to forgive him."

"Enemy?" Wen Chou was slightly angry, raising his voice: "I'm wearing Jizhou military uniforms, can you not see clearly?"

"There are people who steal the enemy's armor and disguise them since ancient times, so they will have to guard against it." Zhao Zhao calmly said: "However, General Wen is my Hebei general, and others cannot imitate it naturally, so I will see General Wen in the end. His honor, naturally ordered to open the city gate."

Wear thousands of things, don't wear flattery. Although Wen Chou was a little angry, his anger disappeared a little when he heard the words of Zhao Zhao.

"Humph!"

"General Wen, leading the general is also for the sake of big things, so don't blame him." At this time, Ju Sui rushed up from behind and said.

Wen Chou looked at the trick, and said coldly: "Finally, for the sake of Ju Jianjun's face, forget it."

"Thank you, General Wen." Zhao Zhao still looked calm, Wen Chou snorted, took the reins, and rode away.

Waiting for Wen Chou to go away, and then he gave Jushou a salute: "The final move, and see the Ju Jianjun."

"Ziping doesn't need to be polite." Ju Shou smiled slightly, jumped off the horse, and handed the war horse to the soldier's hand, holding the beckoning hand.

"Ziping, you and I are both from Hebei, so don't be too polite." Ju Shou smiled.

The trick was to shook his head: "There is a difference between upper and lower, and the military is disciplined. If the superior orders and subordinates, there will be no disobedience. If you are united, can you make an exception?"

Jushou's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he smiled: "Okay, you can help the son, you know the soldiers."

"I don't know what the Ju Jianjun has to do when looking for the next official?" Asked for an official business.

"Well, there is one important thing."
