Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 624 Yuan Shao Withdrew Northward
"Damn it! Put out the fire, save supplies!"

The attack of the hot air balloon made Yuan Shao and the others somewhat unexpected, and even more so caught off guard.

It turns out that the rumors that Liaodong is a vassal state are not false.

It's really cool to play like this.

The oil drums were smashed down one by one, the flames soared into the sky, and the oil and fire flew all over the sky.

The entire camp was set on fire, with flames everywhere, all burning violently.

Seeing Yuan Shao's heart ached, his face was like splashed ink.

All the generals were busy leading people to put out the fire and rescue supplies. At this moment, they only had one thought, hurry up, hurry up.

"Report! My lord, something is wrong. There were surprise attacks by the Qingzhou army on both sides of the camp. Our army was caught off guard and couldn't resist, so they rushed into the camp."

"Bastard, a bunch of trash, come here, fight me back, give me a fierce counterattack, kill all the Qingzhou troops who entered the camp, and destroy them all." Yuan Shao heard that the fourth school lieutenant dared to come The sneak attack was even more furious.

You stay in Pingyuan City and I have nothing to do with you. If you run out by yourself, then don’t blame me for being rude.

It's just that before Yuan Shao's army could surround him, after Zhang Fei and others fought and burned for a while, he slipped out of Yuan Shao's camp as expected, and ran back to Pingyuan City in a hurry.

The counterattack of Yuan Shao's army came to nothing, and the generals were so angry that they gritted their teeth.

If the person was not caught, it was not mentioned, and it also delayed the firefighting and rescue supplies.

It's so annoying.

"Hahaha, what a joy, what a joy tonight, killing that bird man Yuan Shao has no temper at all, hahaha!" When the soldiers returned, Zhang Fei laughed heartily.

The generals also said: "That's right, Mr. Feng Xiao threw the fire dragon this night, and he planned to burn the camp very well. It is estimated that this fire will kill Yuan Shao's [-] troops."

"It's a trivial matter for people. It is estimated that [-]% to [-]% of his supplies will be burned. Yuan Shao will feel distressed for a long time."

Soon Guo Jia came in waving his folding fan, all the generals were silent for a moment, they clasped their fists together and said, "Military Master, fortunately, we did not disgrace our fate, we killed Yuan Shao viciously."

"Okay! Everyone has worked hard. After today's battle, we Qingzhou and Pingzhou don't need to defend conservatively. It will be our turn to take the initiative in the future. Let's go down and rest." Guo Jia nodded encouragingly.

Zhang Fei said: "Take a good rest, honor your filial piety, give me some wine as a reward, it's a rare big victory, I'm a bird, what can I do if I don't drink!"

Everyone said: "Yes, yes, military advisers can't be stingy, they have to enjoy wine!"

Since defending the city, no one has touched alcohol.

At this time, when it comes to wine, everyone's throat is full of anticipation.

But Guo Jia also said with a bitter face: "I also want to drink, but my strength does not allow it. If you can get wine from Fawei, I will give it a hundred votes."

The wine is all under the control of Fawei, so each army and city has people from Fawei to supervise the army and supervise the military discipline.

A wine lunatic like Guo Jia doesn't want to steal, but he has no authority.

"Ahem, forget it, Fawei... umm, I'm going to find them after Yuan Shaozhen leaves." Zhang Fei, who was not afraid of anyone, shrank his head when he heard the word Fawei.

He is not afraid of Fawei, after all, he is a captain, and he is an old man who follows Xu Ding, and he is a high-ranking general in the whole system.

He has done a lot of hard work, and at the same time, he is very popular with Xu Ding.

Naturally, they are not afraid of Fawei, but Fawei is very annoying. They dare not touch Zhang Fei, but they will preach to you every day and whisper in their ears every day. Zhang Fei can't stand this.

You can't fight but you can't fight, and you can't talk about it. It's better to avoid the rare.

The generals were almost the same, so they laughed together.

One-third of the fire in Yuan Shao's camp could not be extinguished, and finally burned until dawn, and then gradually extinguished.

After dawn, according to the statistics of personnel and supplies, Yuan Shao and others were heartbroken again.

All of them shrugged their heads, with gray heads and dark faces.

The spirit of the entire army was sluggish, and morale fell to the bottom.

After simply collecting the personnel and supplies, Yuan Shao immediately ordered the withdrawal to the west.

After half an hour, Yan Liang and other riders caught up. They had been evacuating by the Yellow River since last night.

Because they are cavalry, they walk very fast.

Passing through Pingyuan City, Yan Liang and the others couldn't help frowning when they saw the burning camp.

Only after catching up quickly did you realize what happened last night?
After hesitating for a while, Yan Liang reported to Yuan Shaohui: "My lord, I'm afraid we should not retreat westward. We should go north and enter Qinghe County directly."

Yuan Shao's listless body shook suddenly, and he asked, "Is Xu Ding leading the army to Pingyuan County?"

Maybe this bastard won't let Cao Cao go after him, so let's come here to mess with him.

Yan Liang said: "My lord, Xu Ding did not lead the army to Pingyuan County, but he sent 5000 people to move in the direction of Gaotang, and they have not yet crossed the river."

It's fine if you don't come!

It's fine if you don't come!

Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief. If Xu Ding led the main force, no, as long as he crossed the river with Qingqi, he might not be Xu Ding's opponent with his current morale and combat effectiveness.

But even if he didn't cross the river, who knows what Xu Ding would do.

After Gao Tang came over a little bit, he would be able to get stuck on the Dugu River, which was the main traffic route for his westward retreat.

So Yuan Shao frowned all of a sudden.

Gongsun Zan would be misunderstood if he didn't withdraw from Dongjun to Weijun and go to Qinghe.

Don't be afraid that Xu Ding failed to make it, and finally he and Gongsun Zan went to war first.

However, he didn't think too long, and said, "Here's an order to join the army and go north, borrow Qinghe County to return to Yecheng, and at the same time send someone to tell Gongsun Zan's people that the army in the middle route failed to attack Xu and the alliance collapsed. Liaodong and even Pingzhou are advancing, be careful that Xu Ding's people land in Youzhou and attack Youbeiping."

Knowing that Yan Liang had returned to the team, Xu You got out of the carriage, and then came over to Yuan Shao and said, "My lord, last night we were busy fighting fires and grabbing supplies, and forgot an important matter?"

Yuan Shao said: "What did you forget?"

Xu You said: "My lord, those strange balls that attacked our camp last night floated out of Pingyuan City. According to the memories of the soldiers, they did not turn back to Pingyuan City, but disappeared westward.

I guess they may not be able to move in one direction at will, which has a certain relationship with the wind direction, just like a boat sailing in the sea. "

Yuan Shaodao: "What Ziyuan means is that they floated to the west and landed, can we go after them?"

Xu You smiled triumphantly: "That's right, my lord, now that General Yan's cavalry is back, we can go out and search for it, I believe we will gain something, as long as we get a strange ball and imitate it, then we will be able to deal with Xu Ding's cavalry in the future." It is beneficial to fight with a large army, whether it is defense or offense."

Yan Liang was completely confused about what it was.

However, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up when he heard the words.

The power of the strange ball was verified in his own camp last night.

This thing can be used to sneak attack on the enemy's camp, and it can also be used to attack the city. It is really a sharp weapon for offense and defense.

Yuan Shao, who has suffered from him, naturally still remembers it fresh, and said to Yan Liang immediately: "Wen Heng, take the cavalry to the west and search for me. You must find the strange ball."

"It's the lord!" Yan Liang immediately took the order, and after Yuan Shao left, he clasped his fists at Xu You and said, "Mr. Ziyuan, it's your suggestion to search for strange balls. Find them to capture them."

Xu You smiled and said: "Of course, come to General Yan Liang, let's talk in detail."

Originally, Yuan Shao's Jizhou faction and Yingchuan faction had many disagreements, and they secretly competed.

Xu You deliberately proposed Yan Liang to perform this meritorious service in front of Yuan Shao. Naturally, it was calculated, and it was to strengthen the strength of the Yingchuan faction.

Otherwise, he would have asked Yuan Shao to propose this method and sent people to track down the hot air balloon.

At that time, Yan Liang had not yet returned, and Yuan Shao would most likely let the generals sent by Jizhou go, because the people of Jizhou were more familiar with this area.

In this way, they Yingchuan faction will not be able to get any credit.

Originally, the attack on Qingzhou this time did not achieve any meritorious service, and it also lost troops.

If they can take advantage of this opportunity to recover some losses, the strength of the Yingchuan faction will be even more stable.
