Chapter 1758

Yuan Shao was shocked upon learning the news. He knew that if he forced action at this time, he would certainly fall into Dong Zhuo's ambush. Thus, he urgently summoned his advisors to discuss countermeasures. Xu You also had his brows locked, secretly pondering how to deal with this sudden change.

"My lord, it is not suitable to attack strongly at this time. We can temporarily remain still and wait for the opportunity," Guo Tu suggested.

Yuan Shao nodded, but then looked at Xu You: "Zi Yuan, how is your agreement with Gu Yi? Has he made preparations?"

Xu You pondered for a moment and said: "My lord, rest assured, Gu Yi has made preparations as an internal agent. But now that the situation has changed, we need to deliberate from a long-term perspective."

Yuan Shao listened, feeling anxious, but also knew he could not be in a hurry at this time. Thus, he ordered the army to remain still temporarily, while secretly ordering scouts to continue inquiring about the movements of Dong Zhuo's army.

In the days that followed, the coalition army and Dong Zhuo's army fell into a subtle state of confrontation. Both sides were secretly competing, trying to find the other's flaws. And Gu Yi in Dong Zhuo's camp was also walking on thin ice; he had to deal with Dong Zhuo's suspicion while preparing for the coalition's action.

Finally, on a windy and rainy night, the coalition army got an excellent opportunity. Dong Zhuo's army relaxed their vigilance due to the weather, and Gu Yi also took the opportunity to create chaos in the camp. The coalition army took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and successfully broke into Dong Zhuo's camp in one fell swoop.

In the fierce battle, Gu Yi, relying on his familiarity with the camp's terrain, successfully rescued Yan Gang and Zu Mao. And the coalition army, under Gu Yi's guidance, caused heavy damage to Dong Zhuo's army. Seeing the situation was not good, Dong Zhuo fled in a panic.

After this battle, the coalition army's morale was greatly boosted. Yuan Shao highly praised the achievements of Xu You and Gu Yi and fulfilled his previous promises. Gu Yi was thus able to gain a foothold in the coalition army and became a highly respected general.

However, in this chaotic world, the situation changes unpredictably. Although this victory brought a short breathing space for the coalition army, greater challenges were still waiting for them. And this experience of Xu You and Gu Yi also became the most unforgettable chapter of their lives. ===== CHAPTER 1759 =====
