Chapter 300 Entering the Central Plains and retreating
Since Guo Jia was unwell, Sun Can made a long story short, briefly described the current situation, and left.

Afterwards, as soon as Sun Can dealt with the retreat, he came to chat with Guo Jia.

For several days in a row, maybe because of her good mood, or maybe because of Qiao Ying's superb medical skills, Guo Jia's illness recovered very quickly, and now she can walk slowly.

Yuan Shao's army will come soon, and their offensive will be even more violent.Guo Jia's injury has always been a difficult problem for the retreat.Now he has gradually recovered, even if he could not recover when Yuan Shao came, it would not increase the pressure in his heart.

As time passed, Yuan Shao also marched towards Xudu again. This time there were still more than [-] troops, but it was not comparable to the original [-] troops.

Among them, the [-] soldiers brought by Qingzhou Yuan Tan from Qingzhou are enough for Sun Can not to underestimate them.

In addition, they also make special use of relationships.A large number of fire-resistant furs were brought in from Xianbei outside the Great Wall, and installed on siege equipment such as watchtowers, city-charging vehicles, and shields of soldiers, which greatly suppressed Sun Canjun's defensive weapon-fire!

If it is said that Yuan Shao fought against himself blindly and arrogantly before.So he, who suffered a loss once, has made sufficient preparations before the battle at this moment, gathered the backbone of the army, and intends to compete with himself again.

With such a powerful army, if he confronted him head-on, no one in the world could be his opponent.

In order to paralyze Yuan Shao, Sun Can did not directly prepare to retreat, and all plans were carried out secretly.In the open, he asked Liu Hua to build the city walls and build towers, but he secretly prepared all important materials. As soon as the retreat time came, he could immediately withdraw from the battle and retreat to the south.

Liu Hua is the second in command of Sun Can's army. Apart from Sun Can, his whereabouts are the most noticeable. Therefore, by letting him personally command the city wall, he can show that he attaches great importance to the city defense.

Jian'an six years, April [-]th.

After more than a month of pre-war preparations, Yuan Shao came to the city of Xudu again.

Looking at the towering Xudu, Yuan Shao's eyes burst into flames of extreme hatred. He has been fighting for half his life, and wherever the army goes, it has always been invincible, and no one can contend with it.Not long ago, he failed in Xudu, and was humiliated by his opponent Sun Can.This bad breath has been in my heart all the time, and I am extremely unhappy.

In order to avenge his shame, he spent more than a month preparing carefully, and finally created an extremely large military lineup of 30. He is confident that with this powerful military force, it is enough to step Xudu to the ground.

"Little Sun Can, I will make you pay back a hundredfold for the humiliation of the day before yesterday." Yuan Shao roared angrily in his heart, his cold eyes made everyone around him stand on end.

"Who wants to break through this city." Yuan Shao said coldly.

"My son is willing to go!" The eldest son Yuan Tan stood up.

"My son is also willing to take on this burden!" The third son Yuan Shang also came out to take the order.

Yuan Shao couldn't help having a headache when he saw this. He had three sons, the eldest son Yuan Tan Xiao was brave and good at fighting, the second son was mediocre, and the third son Yuan Shang was handsome in appearance, proficient in both civil and military affairs, and quite talented.I like the third son the most. I think he is handsome and talented, and I have long planned to make him the heir.However, since ancient times, there is a saying that "the eldest son is the first order when heirs are established, the eldest son is the first grandson, the eldest grandson is the second grandson, and the second son is the second son without the grandson.

The eldest son, Yuan Tan, did not lose his morals. On the contrary, he made great military achievements.He used the Qingzhou army to contain the [-] elite soldiers of the Xiahou brothers. Although he could not win, he still gained the upper hand, which greatly increased the burden on the enemy's main force in the middle.In this way, he has not lost his virtue and has made great achievements. Yuan Shao has no reason not to appoint him.What's more, most of the generals in the army have contacts with Yuan Tan, if not handled properly, it is likely to cause a mutiny.

However, he really loved Yuan Shang, but Yuan hadn't done any meritorious service yet, so he was far inferior to Yuan Tan.

"Why don't you take this opportunity to let Shang'er make meritorious deeds?" This idea flashed in Yuan Shao's mind, but he quickly gave up. The meaning of this battle is related to his own face. Tan'er is indeed the best candidate for being brave and good at fighting.So, he said, "Tan'er, we must conquer Xudu."

Yuan Tan was overjoyed, he glanced at Yuan Shang proudly, and took the order to leave.

Yuan Shang looked at Yuan Tan jealously, with a vicious gleam in his eyes.

Afterwards, Yuan Tan launched an unprecedented onslaught against Xu Du.

On Xudu City, Sun Can looked at the tide-like soldiers and said with emotion: "Qingzhou has always been a place to produce elite soldiers, and it really deserves its reputation. Although this army is not as brave as Qingzhou soldiers, everyone is extremely brave and fearless of life and death."

After listening to Sun Can's words, Jia Xu interjected: "Qingzhou is one of the ancient nine states. It borders Linzi in the west, Changle County in the east, Shouguang County and Dongying Guangrao County in the north, and Linqu County in the south. The Yimeng Mountains are in the south of Qingqin. , to the north of which is the Lubei Plain and the Bohai Sea. Qingzhou is right in this throat area and has always been a battleground for military strategists.

There are beautiful mountains and rivers, and the people are brave.Everyone likes to practice martial arts and fight, climbing mountains and wading like walking on flat ground.Therefore, since the founding of our dynasty, Qingzhou is the first choice for every conscription, followed by Danyang, the hometown of infantry.Although Danyang is known as the hometown of infantry, its population is sparse, and it has already lived up to its name.The elite produced in Qingzhou has always been famous far and wide, and Cao Cao's "Qingzhou Soldiers" are the best among them. "

Sun Can listened, nodded with a smile, and said, "Qingzhou is indeed a good place."

The next few days were spent under Yuan Tan's onslaught. In order to dress up as an elephant, Sun Can gradually reduced his defensive soldiers, and gradually fell into a disadvantage when defending the city. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xu Du fell soon.

Therefore, Yuan Tan's offensive became more violent, and finally broke through the city wall of Xudu on April [-]th.

According to the original plan, Gao Shun and Zhang Fei led the "Trapping Camp" and "Sharp Spear Camp" to the rear, and carried out a rolling battle to delay the retreat for Sun Can's army.

Although it would be much safer to retreat earlier, but for the sake of truth and to be able to deceive the eyes of wise men such as Tian Feng, Sun Can decided to take the risk and retreat when the opponent broke through the city.

Although Yuan Shaobing showed the crowd, but in street fighting, bravery is the first, and those who have more soldiers are defeated. The "Trapped Camp" and "Sharp Gun Camp" are rare elites in the world, and they are like ducks in water in the narrow streets.However, Yuan Shao's army, who was accustomed to bullying the few with more, could not give full play to its superiority in strength, and was restrained everywhere under the obstruction of the "trapped camp" and "sharp spear camp".

For this battle, Sun Can specially let the "Trapped Camp" and "Sharp Gun Camp" serve as patrol soldiers for more than a month, and they are very familiar with thousands of streets and alleys in Xudu.

Kill here for a while, kill there for a while.He is clearly in front of Yuan Shaojun, but in the blink of an eye he will appear behind Yuan Shaojun.

The metropolis, which can accommodate a population of nearly 50, suddenly became a place for hide-and-seek for the "Trapped Camp" and "Sharp Gun Camp".
