The back road was cut off, which was like a bolt from the blue for Yuan Shaojun, and Yuan Shao and his staff suddenly became a pot of porridge.
Yuan Shao, who was sitting in Pingling, the national governance office of Jinan, immediately summoned Guo Tu and Xin Ping from Linzi, as well as Xin Bi and Xun Chen from Mount Tai and other strategists to rush to Pingling to discuss countermeasures.
At this time, it was already the middle of November.
After the heavy snowfall, the cold wind is biting, and the cold north wind blows on the face like a knife, and the mountains are covered with ice and snow, and the white is boundless.
The banner covered with frost and snow was frozen solid by the cold weather, and even though the north wind roared, there was no longer the momentum of hunting.
Under the invasion of the severe cold, 100,000 soldiers of the Yuan army took off their armor and patrolled the city wall in thick cotton clothes.
Weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and halberds could not be held in their hands at all, so they could only put their hands in their sleeves and hold the weapons in their arms; Then he walked around the city walls in the bitter cold wind.
Although the north wind was like a knife, the strategists did not dare to delay, and immediately took their entourage, stepped on the thick snow, and hurried to Pingling, which was about 200 miles away, and conspired with the lord Yuan Shao.
At present, Yuan Shao's troop deployment is as follows, Jinan is personally in charge of Yuan Shao, and his strategists include Fu Zhu, Feng Ji, Xu You, Chen Lin, Pu Yangxing and others, and the military generals are mainly Xiao Maha, and the others are Gao Gan, Chun Yuqiong, Han Juzi, Lu Weihuang and other partial generals, with a regular force of 40,000 troops, in addition to 20,000 yellow turbans.
In Linzi, the state of Qi, there is Yuan Tan in charge, and the generals under his command are Zhang He, Lu Xiang, Jiang Yiqu, and Wang Zhao, and the strategists who joined the army are Guo Tu and Xin Ping, with a regular strength of 30,000 and 15,000 Yellow Turbans.
The chief general stationed in Taishan County is Yan Liang, the deputy general is Li Yi, and the other partial generals are Ma Yan, Wei Yuanjin and others, with Xin Bi and Xun Chen as the army, with 28,000 regular troops and 20,000 Yellow Turbans.
In addition to the 100,000 regular troops in the three counties of Qingzhou and the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers, there are 50,000 regular troops stationed in Yecheng, Bohai and the plains in Yuan Shao's Jizhou Laolair.
The strategists braved the snow and trekked all day, and in the evening they entered Pingling City one after another to meet Yuan Shao.
At this moment, the mansion where Yuan Shao was temporarily stationed was brightly lit, and the civil and military who were qualified to attend the meeting had been waiting for a long time, and you and I had been discussing for a long time, and I couldn't make up my mind.
Yuan Shao sat on the fur seat in the middle, inexplicably irritable in his heart, and couldn't hide the anger on his face.
Since it was confirmed two days ago that the back road was completely blocked by the Han army, Yuan Shao was furious, and he was still gloating about Liu Wei's liveliness, hoping that the combined forces of the Luoyang court and Jingzhou could take Wancheng, and even go straight to Jinling.
At that time, he will be able to take the opportunity to launch a counteroffensive and retake the southeastern part of Qingzhou.
It's just that Yuan Shao's dream has not yet woken up, and suddenly received the bad news that the back road was cut off, Li Jing led more than 100,000 horses to mix in the Yellow Turban refugees, unexpectedly blocked the post road from Qingzhou to Jizhou, and controlled the fortresses along the Yellow River.
This bad news that fell from the sky made Yuan Shao furious, and he killed more than 200 scouts in one go, as a punishment for their unfavorable intelligence.
It's just that the consequences of this have sharply reduced the number of scouts under Yuan Shao, and the intelligence turnover has become even more ineffective, which makes Yuan Shao even more anxious, so that it is difficult to sleep and eat, and he is infected with the wind and cold.
"Guo Tu and Xin Ping meet the lord" After Guo Tu and Xin Ping, who had been weathered all the way, got off their horses, they went straight to the meeting hall, took off the big hat covered with frost and snow, and saluted Yuan Shao together.
"Gongze, Zhongzhi, you two came just Yuan Tu and Gong and each have their own opinions, the two factions are arguing, Lone is hesitant now, I don't know how to choose, you come and help Lone for reference" Guo Tu and Xin Ping are both Yuan Shao's descendants, and their status in Yuan Shao's mind is comparable to that of trial and matching, and they are more important than Fu Zhu and Tian Feng, so the arrival of the two made Yuan Shao overjoyed.
After some inquiry, Guo Tu and Xin Ping learned that the strategists were currently divided into two factions, and they suggested abandoning the three counties of Qingzhou, gathering troops, and taking advantage of the Han army's unstable foothold on the banks of the Yellow River, to forcibly break through the defense line, and unite with the people and horses of Jizhou, and then defend it with danger.
Xun Chen is the only one who supports this suggestion.
The other faction is based on Fengji, thinking that we should continue to stick to the three counties, and wait for the spring of the next year, when the Han army is short of food and grass, and then break through, so the chances of victory are relatively large.
At the same time, in this winter, he sent people to contact the Luoyang Imperial Court, as well as Sun Ce of Jingzhou, Shixie of Jiaozhou and other princes, and at the same time when spring begins tomorrow, maybe he can still catch Liu Wei off guard, and he can't keep the three counties of Qingzhou, and he can counterattack to the Xuzhou area, which is not impossible.
After Guo Tu frowned and thought for a while, he bowed his hand to Yuan Shao and said: "My lord, we think that what Feng Yuantu said is more reasonable, Fang is freezing today, and it is not appropriate to use soldiers."
Moreover, Yue Fei won a great victory in Wancheng, Liu Weijun has no worries, and can concentrate all his strength on a decisive battle with our army, if he forcibly breaks through, he will inevitably suffer huge losses."
"What the public rule says is very true" Xin Ping's opinion is consistent with Guo Tu, "At present, the Han army has formed a situation of encirclement, including the Qingzhou Yellow Turban led by Li Jing, there are as many as 24,400,000 people and horses around, if our army fails to break through and is surrounded by the Han army in the field, it will inevitably usher in the disaster of the whole army."
It is better to wait for the Han army to attack, our army will be horns on each other's three roads, effectively annihilate the strength of the Han army, and according to what Feng Yuantu said, secretly contact Luoyang, Sun Ce and even Liu Biao, who is still breathing, and wait for the spring of next year to jointly challenge Liu Biao, maybe we can reverse the defeat."
"It is precisely because the weather is cold and the ground is not suitable for the use of troops that the Han army will guess that we will defend the city to the death, so that Li Jingjun can be caught off guard, and he will definitely be able to cross the Yellow River in one fell swoop, return to the base camp in Jizhou, and then plan for the future." ” "Don't you know the reason why I retreat to the enemy, my army retreats a foot, the enemy advances a foot, our army retreats to Jizhou, if the Han army takes the three counties of Qingzhou without blood, and then continues to pursue northward, to the plains, at the foot of Yecheng, where should our army retreat" Seeing that most of the people supported their opinions, Feng Ji was more energetic and aggressively questioned and frustrated.
Yuan Shao saw that all the strategists supported Feng Ji's opinion, and finally stroked his head: "Since this is the case, I will act according to Feng Yuantu's strategy, continue to stick to the three counties, and wait until the weather warms up before making plans, anyway, our grain and grass are enough to last until August next year, and the Han army has traveled thousands of miles to transport grain and grass, and the supply will inevitably be difficult, and at the same time, I will send people to make friends with the Luoyang Imperial Court, Jingzhou Sun Ce, and the Jiaozhou Shixie family, I hope that when the time comes, we can get an echo, and we will definitely be able to get through this difficulty."
"The Lord is wise, and we swear to obey the Lord's orders" As soon as Yuan Shao's words fell, the think tank headed by Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Xu You, Xin Ping and others bowed down and praised Yuan Shao's decision.
Only frustrated to shake his head and sigh, he didn't know what to say.
In fact, in the view of Fu Zhu, Yuan Shao's demise is only a matter of one day earlier and one day later, and now Liu Wei has completely occupied Yangzhou, and has taken the entire Xuzhou, most of Qingzhou, as well as the north of Jingzhou, the south of Yuzhou, and even the southeast corner of Yanzhou, and half of the world has been returned to Liu Wei.
In addition, Liu Wei has the identity of an orthodox descendant of the Han family, occupies the morality, the soldiers under his command are full of food, the generals are brave, and the strategists are wise, and the total number of troops has reached nearly 500,000, which has formed an overwhelming advantage over the princes, and it is only a matter of time before the world is unified.
Let Yuan Shao lead his troops to break through and stick to the old nest of Jizhou, it is just a few more years, as long as Liu Wei advances step by step, it is only a matter of time before he is destroyed, and Yuan Shao chooses to stick to Qingzhou and sit still, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold on to this time next year "Why did you shake your head and sigh and all the people present here are united and vow to fight Liu Wei to the end, but you sigh for a long time, ruining the morale of our army and increasing the prestige of the enemy, what is the reason?"
In the past few days, the analysis of the frustrated professor has always stood in the attitude of the weak, the tone is full of pessimism and despair, and the words from time to time reveal the meaning that they cannot fight with the sky, so they almost persuaded Yuan Shao to open the door and surrender.
This made Yuan Shao very unhappy in his heart, but he didn't find an excuse to beat the frustration, and he finally couldn't help but burst out at this moment.
"I just lamented that our army was in a difficult situation, how could he dare to extinguish his prestige and increase the morale of the enemy."
Yuan Shao still didn't give up: "You have repeatedly raised the Eastern Han Army and belittled our army, it is clear that you have two hearts, you instigated Gu to give up the three counties of Qingzhou, and you want Liu Bianbing to be bloodless in Qingzhou, what kind of high-ranking officials did Liu Bianbing promise you, let you do such a betrayal and seek glory" Yuan Shaosheng angrily reprimanded the case, and did not allow frustration to give defense, and beckoned left and right: "Come on, put this guy in prison for me, and wait for Liu Wei to break Liu Biao next year, let him see who is more eloquent."
"No" The guards outside the door agreed, and there was no room for frustration to justify, and a few fierce soldiers poured in to twist Frustration's hands, pushed out of the council hall, and sent him to the prison of Jinan.
The relationship between Fu Zhu and the other strategists under Yuan Shao's command was average, so no one interceded for Fu Zhu, but some people gloated.
As if nothing had happened, the mood of the people in the room was not affected in the slightest.
Gao Gan got up and arched his hand and said: "Uncle Yu, there is a brother in my clan whose name is Gao, the word Ao Cao, who is skilled in bowing and horses, good at using a horse lance, and has the courage of ten thousand people, and his nephew is willing to send someone to call him to help in the clan."

Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Since there is such a fierce general, why don't you recommend our army as early as possible It is the time to use people, you can quickly send someone to call this Gao Ao Cao to help, and Lone will definitely be reused." t1706231537:
