Guo Tu on the side waved his hand and motioned for the guards to retreat with the brocade box. Then he said to Yuan Shao: "What is the lord going to do?"

Yuan Shao's eyes shot out of rage, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Do you still need to ask!" Han Fu deceived people too much, I swear to kill Han Fu!

Guo Tu felt that things didn't seem to be so simple, but at this time Yuan Shao was angry, and Guo Tu didn't want to touch Yuan Shao's mold.

On the same day, Yuan Shao issued an order, ordering the whole army to be fully equipped, and the troops entered Jizhou on the same day.

The next day, 50,000 troops left the camp and came to Jizhou. The people along the way fled one after another, and all those who couldn't avoid died under the blades of Yuan Shaojun's soldiers. The villages and towns he passed along the way were all burned and the population was slaughtered, and Yuan Shao was venting his anger wantonly. Looking south from Jizhou City, I saw black smoke billowing out, which was the scene of several villages and towns being burned.

Han Fu, who got the news first, was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the four doors to be closed and strictly guarded.

"How so?" In Jizhou's Thorn Mansion, Han Fu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Why haven't Mr. Gao Gan and Mr. Xun Kan come yet?" Han Fu asked anxiously.

"These two people haven't seen anyone since yesterday, but I'm afraid they have already escaped from Jizhou." Geng Wu replied.

Han Fu's face was extremely ugly, and he muttered after a while: "Could it be that Yuan Shao's so-called borrowing grain is really harboring a thief's heart!?"

"If I surrender to Yuan Shao, will I be able to avoid this military disaster?" Han Fu suddenly said this.

Geng Wu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly admonished: "Lord, don't do it!" Although this Yuan Shao was born in everyone, he is a jackal's heart! If Yuan Shao is allowed to enter Jizhou, I am afraid that the people of the whole city will be spared! Just looking at what he did in the southern towns and counties a few days ago, does the lord still have illusions about Yuan Shao? Even if the lord does not think about himself, he must also think about the safety of the people of the whole city!

Min Chun and Li Li also advised together.

Han Fu frowned, hesitating in his heart. Han Fu was originally a former official of the Yuan family, and he has always been grateful for the kindness of the Yuan family, in his heart, he is actually in Jizhou to manage Jizhou for the Yuan family, and now he wants him to meet Yuan Shao's soldiers, he is really terrified. But what Geng Wu and others said was also very reasonable, Yuan Shao's previous behavior in the southern towns and counties did make Han Fu's heart tremble, although he had the heart to repay Yuan's kindness, but he didn't want to see Jizhou become a hell on earth.

After hesitating for a long time, Han Fu finally decided to stick to Jizhou to fight against Yuan Bing.

Seeing Han Fu's decision, Geng Wu and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

"We will definitely help the lord to defeat Yuan Bing and achieve hegemony!" The three of them prayed together.

Han Fu smiled bitterly, "Let's talk about it when Yuan Shao is defeated." "

My lord, you can immediately send an order to the two generals Zhao Fu of Texas and Cheng Jian of Gaotang, and let them each lead elite troops to rush to help. We should cooperate with it inside and outside, and we will not worry about fighting Yuan Shao. Geng Wu suggested. Han Fu adopted this suggestion after a little thought, and immediately sent a fast horse messenger to Dezhou and Gaotang to rush away.

Yuan Shaojun burned and looted all the way to Jizhou, and in the evening, he arrived at the city of Jizhou.

Due to the day's journey, and the burning and looting all the way consumed a lot of Yuan Shaojun's energy, at this time, Yuan Shao's soldiers were sleepy and tired.

Yuan Shao ordered the whole army to be stationed, rest for one night, and attack the city again in the coming day.

Geng Wu suggested that while Yuan Shaojun was tired from afar, he would half-send troops to rob the camp. However, Han Fu, who was cowardly by nature, did not agree. On the same day, Guo Tu specially arranged a group of people to wait for Han Fu to rob the camp, but nothing happened after the night passed. Han Fu's cowardice allowed him to escape a catastrophe, which made people have to sigh at the impermanence of the world.

The next day, the door of Yuan Shao's military camp was wide open, and tens of thousands of troops dressed in green armor poured out like a torrent, forming a neat military formation five hundred steps outside the city wall. Looking down from the city wall, I saw the banner waving swords and guns like a forest, magnificent and solemn.

Han Fu, who was standing on the tower of the city gate, was not worried in his heart when he saw this scene.

Suddenly, he galloped out of Yuan Shao's army and ran all the way to the city wall. The archers on the city wall were suddenly very nervous, and everyone bent their bows and drew arrows, just waiting for Han Fu to give an order.

"Jizhou Han Fu can be here?" The rider shouted under the walls.

Han Fu only felt a chuckle in his heart, and then swallowed his saliva.

A small colonel by the battlement wall turned his head to look at Han Fu, waiting for Han Fu to show off. After a moment, Han Fu nodded at the little schoolmaster. Xiao Xiao immediately leaned out and shouted to the city: "My lord is here, you can say anything if you have something." The tone is very unkind, it is no wonder that the soldiers under Han Fu are basically locals, and many people's homes are in those towns and counties that were destroyed by Yuan Shao before, so to speak, Yuan Shao's impulsive behavior has made him have a blood feud with the Jizhou army.

"My lord ordered me to ask you, why are you treacherous?!" The knights of the Yuan army under the city shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Han Fu couldn't help but be stunned. Stab in the back!? Where does this begin?

"Yuan Gong said that I was treacherous, what did I mean by that? How could I, Han Fu, ever be treacherous!? Han Fu came to the battlement wall, leaned out and said suspiciously towards the city, his tone was quite weak.

"Don't you know what you're doing?" The knight of the castle asked very unceremoniously. Seeing that the other party's small horn dared to be so arrogant to his own lord, many people were furious, and the shouting and scolding suddenly sounded on the city wall.

However, Han Fu said in a low voice: "I don't know what happened to make Yuan Gong angry?" But please make it clear that if you are really negligent, you will be guilty of it!

Seeing this, all the soldiers couldn't help but change their faces slightly. Geng Wu also frowned tightly. The lord is too weak, and if he continues like this, he is afraid that the morale of the army will be greatly damaged, and in the end, he may even collapse without a fight!

Geng Wu thought for a moment, then snatched the bow and arrow from the hand of a crossbowman next to him, and bent the bow and aimed at the arrogant Yuan knight under the city.

Hearing Han Fu's weak tone, Yuan Jun's knight's arrogance became more and more arrogant. first counted Han Fu down, and Han Fu was like a gray grandson.

Enough of playing prestige, Yuan Jun Knight is ready to get back to the point. At this moment, a slight bowstring sound sounded on the city tower, and then the knight of the Yuan army, who was about to continue to play the majestic style, fell off his horse with a scream.

The scene fell silent for a moment, and then an earth-shattering shout broke out, "Okay!!"

And Han Fu, who was communicating happily with the other party, was dumbfounded, and his face suddenly turned pale. This time, even if Han Fu wanted to beg, he was afraid that the other party would not believe him.

"Who? Who put the arrows? Han Fumi turned around and yelled in annoyance.

The soldiers also looked around, and most of them didn't know who had released the arrows.

At this time, Geng Wu walked up with a bow, knelt down in front of Han Fu and said, "Lord, I shot that arrogant man." "

It's you?!" Han Fu was obviously taken aback. Everyone looked at Han Fu to see how he handled this matter.

Han Fu's face kept changing, and finally Han Fu sighed helplessly and said, "That's it, that's it!" Now that the matter has come to this, how can I punish the minister of the humerus for the sake of an outsider, and what you have done cannot be wrong! It's just that the battle with Yuan Shao is unavoidable! After speaking, Han Fu sighed again.

Geng Wu was moved in his heart, and immediately thanked him: "Thank you for the grace of the lord!" Then he straightened up and clasped his fists, and said to Han Fu with a generous face: "The lord doesn't need to worry about Yuan Shao!" Yuan Shao's grain and grass were burned, and it was bound to transfer grain from Bohai, and Bohai was already short of grain, and the grain and grass consumption in Bohai was originally borne by us, and now it is impossible for us to give them grain and grass, and Bohai cannot afford the consumption of Yuan Shao's army at all! Therefore, our army only needs to hold out for a few months, and when Yuan Shao's army has dysentery, they will naturally retreat. Geng

Wu's words can be said to be to the point and very reasonable. However, after hearing this, Han Fu did not show a happy expression, he sighed and said, "I hope so." "

......

"Report!" A scout ran into Yuan Shao's tent of the Chinese army commander, knelt down in front of Yuan Shao, and said urgently: "Lord Qiqi, the messenger sent has been shot and killed under the city!" "

What!" Yuan Shaomi stood up, his eyes widened, and his face was furious, "What a Han Fu!" Dare to kill my messenger! It's hateful! Then

he turned his head to Guo Tu on the side and said angrily: "It's all your indiscriminate suggestions, so as to break the spirit of our army!" "It turned out that Yuan Shao didn't plan to send an envoy to talk nonsense at all, it was Guo Tu's repeated suggestion that Yuan Shao reluctantly sent a messenger, who knew that he was killed by the other party with an arrow! Yuan Shao felt that this greatly damaged his face.

Guo Tu hurriedly replied and didn't dare to say anything.

After Yuan Shao lost his temper, he secretly drew his sword and shouted: "Order the three armies, attack the city immediately!" Whoever climbs the city wall first and ascends, whoever takes down Han Fu's head, will receive a reward of 1,000 taels! When

the order was laid, the morale of the whole army was immediately boosted. Immediately, the drums of war sounded like thunder, and in the roll of the banners, thousands of strong men carried ladders and pushed various siege equipment out of the military formation, and began to attack Jizhou City.

Watching his soldiers flock to Jizhou City like a tide, Yuan Shao's face was hideous. Han Fu, I must peel your skin, cramp, crush your bones, and scatter ashes!

Yuan Shao's army is much more elite and fierce than Han Fu's Jizhou army, but Han Fu relies on the wealth of Jizhou, his Jizhou army is much stronger than Yuan Shao's army in terms of equipment, plus the whole army has the same hatred for the enemy, Yuan Shaojun wants to use 50,000 people to capture Jizhou City, which is also defended by 50,000 troops. Guo Tu knew this, but Yuan Shao was angry, and he didn't want to touch Yuan Shao's moldy head.

The tragic siege battle entered the white-hot stage on the first day, although Yuan Shao's army attacked the city with his life, and the Jizhou army also resisted to the death, for three days in a row, Yuan Shao paid the price of thousands of casualties but failed to make any progress.

Yuan Shao's pattern is that he wants to retreat when he encounters difficulties. When he saw that the three days of bloody fighting had achieved nothing, he had the intention of retreating.

When he asked Guo Tu about this meaning, Guo Tu immediately advised: "Our army is strong, as long as the army of the two generals Yan Liangwen and Chou arrive, it will be easy to take Jizhou, and at this time, we must not retreat so that our previous achievements will be wasted."

Yuan Shao hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to follow Guo Tu's advice and not withdraw for the time being, but he temporarily suspended his troops until Yan Liangwen's army arrived.

In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, the withdrawal of troops is a relatively correct decision. Because Yuan Shaojun's plan to attack by surprise failed, and if he attacked, Yuan Shaojun's grain and grass was a big problem, and the Jizhou army was fortified in the city, and the grain and grass were sufficient, even if Yuan Shaojun's army merged with Yan Liangwen's army, it was basically impossible to break Jizhou in a short time. The main reason why Guo Tu suggested that Yuan Shao continue to attack the city was that he was worried that he would be made fun of by other strategists if he went back like this, and in addition, he also wanted to make his position in Yuan Shao's army surpass others by virtue of a meritorious service.
