his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He struggled to lift his big sword and killed his way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the desperate protection of several personal guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Liang, relying on his hard martial power, forcibly killed his way out of the encirclement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... the cavalry troops following him were completely wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, of the cavalry troops under Yuan Shao's camp, only Yan Liang escaped alone in the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Liang became a bare-handed commander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Yan Liang's back as he escaped and went far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan was so angry that his teeth itched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn't stop Yan Liang at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, Yan Liang's martial power was quite good, and Gongsun Zan was not his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, Yan Liang was Yuan Shao's trusted general, and the warhorse under his crotch was by no means an ordinary product.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Trapping Army was all infantry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The marching speed naturally couldn't keep up with the cavalry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And although Gongsun Zan had cavalry under his command, they were not as elite as the White Horse Followers of the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the White Horse Followers were in hand today...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am afraid all the coalition's cavalry would have to be planted here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan couldn't help but think of the White Horse Followers and

siege, the coalition had no progress at Hulao Pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nobody\" Zhang Liao, facing an enemy several times his own, did not panic at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he calmly commanded the defenders of Hulao Pass to counterattack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Liao didn't know who he learned this from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't talk about military ethics at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defending the city is defending the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to collect a lot of gold juice (boiling excrement) and pour it on the coalition!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coalition soldiers scalded by the gold juice had their injuries instantly aggravated several times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many didn't even make it back to the camp and died on the way back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching one soldier after another die in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faces of the various warlords all sank to the bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When dinner time arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After discussion, everyone decided to stop the siege first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a little rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After building some more powerful siege equipment, they would prepare to restart the siege.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hungry warlords had just prepared to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Hong, Ji Ling, Jiang Shi, and others returned with defeated troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, they also brought news of the coalition's cavalry being ambushed and defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Yuan Shao was wondering why Yan Liang hadn't returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of the field of vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A figure covered in blood was galloping towards the camp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Shao wanted to call his personal guards to protect him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he suddenly discovered that the figure was Yan Liang, whom he was most familiar with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Liang's body was already tattered, his armor soaked in blood, looking like a blood man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The horse under Yan Liang threw him down, foaming at the mouth and dying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Yan Liang himself was not lightly thrown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But compared to the dead horse, Yan Liang at least saved his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Yuan Shao walking quickly towards this side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Liang said in a weak voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our army's cavalry troops were ambushed and wiped out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Plop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Shao's feet were unsteady, and he fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"My lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Yuan Shao fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Feng, Guo Tu, Feng Ji, Xin Ping, and others were all frightened by this sudden scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, all faction interests were thrown behind their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If something happened to Yuan Shao, I am afraid no one would have a good life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Yuan Shao himself was also a martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't fall into a big problem because of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even so, Yuan Shao still sat on the ground, murmuring in his mouth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How... how is it possible?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can't blame Yuan Shao for his poor concentration, it was really that this news was too explosive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although, Yuan Shao did not have elite troops like the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with his big family and big business, the number of cavalry under his command was undoubtedly the largest in the coalition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When training these cavalry, Yuan Shao gave funds if they wanted funds, and gave venues if they wanted venues.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It could be said that all resources were unconditionally tilted toward this cavalry unit under his command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This feeling was akin to the \"expecting one's child to become a dragon\" of later generations, where parents would fill their children's schedules with tutoring classes from a young age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he was filled with high hopes for the child!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Shao was the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped that this cavalry unit, which had cost him countless efforts to build, would be able to overcome all obstacles and become an elite force that shook the world, just like the West Liang Iron Cavalry and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this cavalry unit was declared finished today with the total annihilation of the entire force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Yuan Shao, this was no less than a bolt from the blue!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Yuan Shao could not bear the blow and collapsed straight onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone, come here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Quickly take the Lord and General Yan Liang into the tent to rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the critical moment, Ju Shou stepped forward to take charge of the Yuan army's affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond his identity as a strategist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ju Shou was also a leader-level figure within the Hebei aristocratic group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hailing from a top-tier local aristocratic family in Jizhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also held the position of Jizhou Assistant Governor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could be considered the person with the highest status and official rank among the scholars in the Yuan camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, everyone brought Yan Liang and Yuan Shao into the tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they had calmed down slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Liang told everyone the sequence of events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing it, everyone was terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General Yan, does that mean Gongsun Zan has completely defected to Dong Zhuo?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ju Shou's brows were tightly locked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thing he feared most had happened after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this scoundrel Gongsun Zan got mixed up with Dong Zhuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The threat to Yuan Shao's power would surely increase exponentially!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, more than half of the coalition's cavalry had been lost, and the Yuan camp's cavalry had been completely wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Yuan Shao and the others wanted to stop Gongsun Zan, it would be of no use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Ju Shou was worrying about how to deal with Gongsun Zan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, several sentries hurried in from outside with panicked expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir! Something terrible has happened!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dong Zhuo's army has gifted Gongsun Zan a significant amount of grain and ships.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right now, Gongsun Zan has already led his Youzhou army to the Yellow River ferry\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"crossing near the port.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Shao, who was lying on the bed recuperating, was overcome with rage, and a mouthful of old blood sprayed from his mouth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, he fell into a faint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Ju Shou and the others were filled with anxiety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan had received the grain and ships gifted by Gu Yi and was leading his Youzhou army across the Yellow River to return to Hebei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could guess with their toes that Gongsun Zan's next plan was definitely revenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan had long coveted Jizhou, Yuan Shao's home base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Battle of Jieqiao back then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to put it bluntly, was because Gongsun Zan coveted the fertile land of Jizhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to start a war and forcibly occupy it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that the Battle of Jieqiao ultimately ended with the defeat of Gongsun Zan's side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, Yuan Shao launched a counterattack against Gongsun Zan and began to invade Youzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Shao's main force was all near Hulao Pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Jizhou home base was therefore extremely empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only his three sons, Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang, along with the Magistrate of Yecheng, Shen Pei, were left to guard Jizhou with a small number of troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Gongsun Zan launched a major attack on Jizhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying solely on Yuan Shao's three sons and Shen Pei and the others, it would be impossible to mount an effective counterattack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Jizhou is of vital importance;
