In Yecheng, in the Yuan family's mansion, the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang gathered their advisers, and the Wuling army was in Chaoge, and they had to discuss countermeasures. \ "Guo Tu, you say, what should I do now" Yuan Shang looked at Guo Tu with a sinister face.
If Guo Tu hadn't asked him to give up the song, he would have at least stayed there for a while.
"The third prince doesn't have to worry, the walls of Yecheng are tall and heavy, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if Wu Shun has artillery, he can't get in for a while.
What needs to be done now is to concentrate the forces of the entire Hebei and conduct a decisive battle with the Wuling army.
Guo Tu said.
Defending Chaoge is completely unnecessary in Guo Tu's opinion, a ruined city can't stop the Wuling army at all.
It is better to concentrate forces, prepare in Yecheng, and rely on the advantages of the city wall to resist the Wuling army.
"Mr.
Guo Tu, is the city of Xudu tall and broken by the Wuling army, I want to know, how Mr. will defend the city."
Yuan Xi said.
Yecheng is the foundation of their Yuan family, if they lose it, there is no possibility of turning over.
Guo Tu wanted to make a desperate bet, but Yuan Xi expressed concern.
"Second son, Cao Cao and Sun Quan have already used troops against Xuzhou, most of the soldiers and horses of Shu are in Hebei, Sun Cao's coalition army has entered Xuzhou strongly, in order to defend, Wu Shun will withdraw some soldiers and horses, this is our opportunity."
Guo Tu talked eloquently, but he couldn't be convincing, Yuan Xi always looked at Guo Tu unpleasantly.
"Since the Wuling army is attacking Hebei, in Xuzhou and Jingzhou, there must be arrangements, and the possible movements of the Sun Cao coalition army, the military divisions of Shu have long thought of it, and the nearly 200,000 Wuling army near Chaoge, how is Mr. going to repel it" Yuan Xi asked sharply.
"Second son, our army only needs to hold Yecheng for a month, and the Shu army will retreat" Guo Tu said confidently.
"Oh sir, how are you sure" Obviously, Yuan Xi would not easily believe Guo Tu's words.
The Wuling army is menacing, and it has a posture of not looking back.
If you can't capture Yecheng in a month, you will automatically withdraw your troops, and Yuan Xi will see that this is a pipe dream "Second brother, you don't have to worry, let's listen to Guo Tu's reason first."
Yuan Shang really couldn't stand it, and spoke out to relieve Guo Tu, how to say that Guo Tu was also his own strategist, and he couldn't allow Yuan Xi to bite so tightly.
"Okay, sir, let's talk about it, why the Wuling Army will retreat."
Yuan Xi said with a smile.
"Second son, third son, there are three reasons why the Wuling Army will retreat.
First, the soldiers and civilians of Hebei Province defended Yecheng to the death, did not give them a chance to break the city, could not attack it for a long time, and the morale of the Wuling army decreased; Second, the cold winter is coming, which is not conducive to large-scale operations, and the logistical pressure of the Wuling Army will increase sharply; Third, Sun Cao's coalition army is attacking Xuzhou, as long as Xuzhou is broken, it will continue to attack Jingzhou and Yuzhou, and at that time, Wu Shun will be under pressure and will return to support.
Guo Tu expressed his opinion, and there is a certain amount of truth.
According to the normal situation, the withdrawal of the Wuling Army has become a foregone conclusion Don't look at the defeat of Yuan's army all the way, and even the Xianbei people invited to run away, but there is still a little bit of foundation left by Yuan Shao, and Wu Shun still needs to spend a little effort to occupy Hebei.
If the Yuan army wants to win, there is one of the most basic prerequisites - they have no way to retreat if they hold Yecheng, Yecheng can't hold it, and everything is empty talk.
What Guo Tu said, Yuan Xi also sounded a little reasonable, the key is that he also thinks that the Wuling army can't break through Yecheng.
Yuan Xi was persuaded, but there was a person next to Yuan Xi who silently remembered Guo Tu's words, he was Mi Zhu who Wu Shun had come to help Yuan Xi earlier.
As the financier of Yuan Xi's forces, Mi Zhu, who has invested the most, is naturally qualified to stand here.
That night, Mi Zhu handed over a piece of cloth to his henchmen and went straight to Chaoge On Chaoge's side, the Wuhuan people are very efficient in repairing the city, and because of the rewards, they are all in full swing.
Obviously, you can eat meat if you work hard, why should you be willing to fall and drink porridge The Wuhuan people who have eaten meat once have resisted drinking porridge and eating cakes in their hearts, and in order to continue to eat meat, they have to work harder than others.
The repair of the city was to prevent a possible surprise attack by the Yuan army, and the weather was cold, and the soldiers needed to keep out the cold.
When he received Mi Zhu's cloth, Wu Shun was very happy, and what he was worried about did not happen.
The two sons of the Yuan family had almost no idea of taking the initiative to attack, and they were already ready to hold on to the city.
From the news sent by Mi Zhu, Wu Shun learned that in the entire Hebei, there was only Guo Tu left as a strategist, which was a bit incredible.
It stands to reason that Yuan Shao also has a lot of strategists, Yuan Shao is no longer good, and those strategists should continue to assist Yuan Tan and them.
Why is there only one Guo Tu left?
Maybe those three guys have been fighting and messing around all these years and lost people's hearts.
In any case, Yecheng must be captured.
"If you want to hold on, then see how long Yecheng can hold on" Wu Shun already had a vague idea of attacking the city.
I still need to consult with the military advisors.
On the first day of November, Wu Shun gathered his generals and advisers, and the rest and recuperation that should have been done were done, and the supplies were in place, and it was time to take Hebei.
Wu Shun was in the first place, and said to everyone: "Everyone, the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang are ready to defend Yecheng to the death, there are 50,000 elite horses of the Yuan army in the city, and the private soldiers of the family do not count the Yuan army to give up the song, just want to defend Yecheng wholeheartedly, this will be a tough battle, how to fight, you may wish to discuss." ” "Big brother, what else is there to discuss, kill it directly, attack the city from all sides, and none of the children of the Yuan family can escape."
Zhang Xiong came out of the queue and said loudly.

When he said this, he couldn't help but make people's hearts rise and their blood surged.
Isn't it true that you can kill it directly, and it will be over if you break through Yecheng.
"Second brother, this Yecheng is not so easy to attack, retreat" Wu Shun said with a straight face, Zhang Xiong came out to mess around.
"Your Majesty, what the second general said is not unreasonable, the armory workshop has sent twenty Pu Yuan cannons, maybe you can directly blast Yecheng."
Dongfang Qiang said.
The Pu Yuan cannons belong to their Suzaku Legion, and now, here in Chaoge City, the Suzaku Legion has 50 Pu Yuan cannons, and the cannonballs are piled up. is enough to make Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang doubt life.
"Yes, Dongfang, it's good if you have confidence," Wu Shun said.
The Wuling army attacked the city, and the Pu Yuan cannon was indispensable, so the Yuan army would also have corresponding preparations.
Whether fifty artillery pieces will be able to break through the city is anyone's guess until it is verified.
"Your Majesty, you can use crossbow arrows to shoot the news that our army is going to attack Yecheng into the city, so as to disturb the hearts of Yuan's army."
Fa Zheng is out of the way.
Before attacking the city, build enough momentum, with the prestige of the Wuling Army, it can indeed frighten some timid people.
"The rebel army is not enough, and it has to disturb the people's hearts, and the news is divided into two kinds, one is for the soldiers of Yuan, and the other is for the people in the city.
How to determine the content, the four of you will discuss" Wu Shun directly made arrangements Since it is necessary to break through the psychological defense line of Yuan Jun, it is simply a two-pronged approach:
