Chapter 333 The Confident Yuan Shao
On the front lines of Jizhou and Youzhou, Yuan Shao sent a large army to fight Gongsun Zan, and he always had the upper hand.
Yuan Shao in Yecheng was in a good mood after receiving the battle report ahead.
A few days after Zhang Yu launched the attack, Yuan Shao summoned his staff to assign tasks. In addition to the military attack on Gongsun Zan, he also began to intervene in the affairs of other states.
"My lord, the world is falling apart. My lord leads the general himself, appoints many officials, and controls Jizhou and some surrounding areas. Now the strongest military force in the surrounding area is Gongsun Zan. As long as he is defeated, Jizhou and Youzhou will all be destroyed." The master's world." Guo Tu said.
Feng Ji also stood up and said: "My lord, Jizhou has a large population and a lot of tax revenue. Youzhou is no match for us. We will defend other places and attack Gongsun Zan with all our strength. Once Gongsun Zan is defeated, my lord will take Youzhou and gather an army." Attack Bingzhou or Qingzhou, and then unify the north and sweep the world."
Yuan Shao was very happy when he heard this, as if Gongsun Zan could be destroyed in an instant and he could unify the world immediately.
While Yuan Shao was intoxicated, a discordant voice sounded.
"My lord, Liaodong and Xuantu County are Zhang Yu's territory. If Gongsun Zan asks Zhang Yu for help, his lips will be dead and his teeth will be cold. His subordinates think that Zhang Yu will definitely help, so we must respond as soon as possible, so as not to fail."
Yuan Shao frowned when he heard this, and saw that it was Jushou who was talking. He never liked Jushou, because Jushou loved to sing against him, but this Jushou was capable and famous at the same time. Have tolerance for him.
"Zhang Yu?" Yuan Shao said with a sneer.
Guo Tu saw Yuan Shao's expression and immediately knew what Yuan Shao was thinking, so he hurriedly came out and said: "How can this Zhang Yu have an overall view? He is just a boy under twenty, and he doesn't have many troops in Liaodong. Even if he comes to support So what about Gongsun Zan, under my army, as many as come will be destroyed."
Feng Ji also came out and said, "That's right. According to the information, Liaodong and Xuantu counties add up to only [-] soldiers and horses. Even if they all come to support, we can deal with it calmly."
Yuan Shao was very happy after hearing this and said hypocritically: "But what Ju Shou said makes sense. Although we don't need to consider him, it will be troublesome if he comes out to cause trouble. I have a plan and I can easily contain him."
Yuan Shao looked at the crowd proudly and said, "I just need to order the governor of Yangzhou and Sun Ce to attack Kuaiji County from two directions. If so, how dare Zhang Yu dare to fight against me? Maybe then he will be too busy to take care of himself."
Guo Tu immediately praised and said: "My lord's clever plan, Zhang Yu's two territories are thousands of miles apart and cannot be taken care of at the same time. When the time comes, neither place will dare to act casually. There is no need to worry at all."
Some other staff also quickly praised Yuan Shao, but Ju Shou, Tian Feng, and Xu You did not participate, but they could not raise any objections at this time.
I don't know if Sun Ce will attack Zhang Yu, but Yuan Shao appointed the governor of Yangzhou, so he will definitely send troops to attack Zhang Yu and contain him.
At that time, Zhang Yu might not dare to ask Gongsun Zan for help.
At this moment when they were having a meeting, Yuan Shao would never know that Zhang Yu had invaded Jizhou for several days.
Back in Zhongshan in Jizhou a few days ago, Zhang Yu took down a county seat, and then sealed off the county seat for conquest.
"Hurry up, tie everything to the horse, hurry up, we have already passed three hours." Zhang Yu shouted to the soldiers.
In this battle, the [-] soldiers and horses defending the city were wiped out, and then the county government was breached, and the county government was looted, and then the aristocratic families in the city began to be looted.
There are no big aristocratic families here, but there is one medium-sized aristocratic family, and some branches of big aristocratic families have been wiped out by Zhang Yu.
"Jizhou is indeed the wealthiest state in the entire Han Dynasty. A county can earn millions of dollars in three hours." Zhang Yu said with a smile while sitting on the horse.
This attack went very smoothly.
After the looting, Zhang Yu left with his belongings and then followed the established route.
After Zhang Yu and the others left, there was a commotion in the city.
"What kind of army is this? They don't rob us of our food, but give us so much food."
"Yeah, they didn't even break into the house, and those who scared us all hid in the cellar."
"At the beginning, I thought it was a lie to us when we talked about food distribution."
"Strange army."
Many people pointed at the leaving army, and then gathered together and talked.
At this time, they were not afraid, because Zhang Yu's army had not harmed them since they entered the city.
And take out a lot of food to distribute to them.
But those aristocratic families were not so lucky.
"Damn it, why did Zhang Yu's army come here?"
"Where is Yuan Gong's army, kill Zhang Yu quickly and return my property."
"Hurry up, send someone to Yecheng to ask for help, and ask Yuan Gong to kill Zhang Yu."
"Damn it, didn't I say Zhang Yu died in Chang'an?"
"No, I heard that Zhang Yu escaped, but the lost soldiers entered the grassland and disappeared. How could he appear in Jizhou now?"
Everyone was puzzled, their family assets were looted, and they cried and cried.
Many aristocratic families immediately sent people to Yecheng to ask for help.
Zhang Yu and the others left the county seat and rushed to the next county seat immediately.
Jizhou is rich and prosperous, with a large population, many counties and towns, but Zhang Yu only looted the counties and did not attack the towns.
This kind of scene not only happened here, but also happened in many places in Zhongshan Kingdom. Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Dian Wei also led people to loot the county seat.
Zhang Yu ransacked all the way with his soldiers and horses, and ransacked the entire county in Zhongshan within a few days.
After the looting, Zhang Yu and his troops gathered together again.
"Haha, my lord, it's fun, these are distributed, and the looted money is tens of millions." Dian Wei said happily.
"My lord, Yuan Shao should have received the news at this time, and the surrounding soldiers and horses will soon return to help us and encircle and suppress us. What should we do?" Huang Zhong asked.
Zhang Yu looked at the wealth tied to the horse's back and said happily: "Let Yuan Shao come, just in time to avenge us in Luoyang. We must have fun with him this time."
Zhang Yu didn't want to retreat like this. He couldn't retreat so early if he wanted to disrupt Jizhou's layout.
A few days later, it was time for Yuan Shao to hold a meeting.
After Yuan Shao planned to let Sun Ce and the Yangzhou governor attack Kuaiji and Wu Commandery, a soldier hurriedly came to report.
"Report, my lord, it's not good. Zhongshan was attacked, and several counties fell at the same time. The situation is critical. My lord, please send troops to support immediately." The soldier said.
In the Mufu of Yecheng Prefecture in Jizhou, Yuan Shao stood up in surprise and said, "Are they Xiongnu or Wuhuan?"
In Yuan Shao's view, only these two parties could reach Zhongshan, but he didn't understand why they attacked Youzhou first and then Jizhou.
