Jizhou Army Camp.

The 40,000 defeated soldiers retreated to the camp in disgrace.

A desirable attack ended in a miserable failure. How could the morale of the Jizhou army not be hit?

Yuan Shao rode a horse with a gloomy face and entered the camp silently. Looking at his unhappy soldiers, he didn't even get angry.

In fact, Yuan Shao did not suffer many soldiers in this battle, and only more than 3,000 casualties were killed or injured.

The biggest loss was that he let Yuan Fang rush around with 500 cavalry, as if he had entered a no-man.

The most fatal thing was that Yuan Shao's helmet was shot down by Yuan Fang's rebellious son.

That shot down in front of tens of thousands of soldiers in front of the three armies. Where did Yuan Shao's face be put?

Enter the camp and enter the account.

Yuan Shao sat down and threw his embarrassing helmet on the table, staring at the civil and military officials who followed him in anger.

Xu You, Wen Chou and other civil servants and generals all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Yuan Shao's gaze, for fear of annoying their lord who was angry and being trained.

"Xu Ziyuan, is this the trick you gave me?" Yuan Shao was the first to glar at Xu You and complained sternly.

Xu You was shocked, looked embarrassed and ashamed, not knowing how to respond.

Yuan Shao snorted, then stared at Wen Chou, and asked, "Wen Ziqin, I'll order you to command the siege army. How could you be unprepared to let that little beast break out of the camp and rush around our army.

”

"Lord, last general..." Wen Chou felt a little aggrieved and wanted to defend himself.

Yuan Shao waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to say anything, just reflect on it."

Wen Chou had no choice but to swallow the words of defense. He retreated in a depressed mood, thinking that this failure was obviously your decision-making mistake, what does it have to do with me?

"You are all heroes of the world. They usually claim to be brave and intelligent, but now I am humiliated by the rebellious son. If the master is humiliated, the minister will die. Don't you know how to be ashamed?" Yuan Shao stared at the civil and military officials,

The face was deeply disappointed.

Everyone lowered their heads deeply, and they didn't dare to let out a sigh of relief. They could only let Yuan Shao complain and scold him.

Yuan Shao scolded his subordinates, and his resentment was relieved a little, but he said angrily: "Although you are defeated today, you don't have to be discouraged. That little beast is just a lucky person. What are you going to do to defeat the enemy?

, why don't you offer it?"

No matter how much I complain, after complaining, Yuan Shao still has to point at these people to plan for himself.

Xu You closed his mouth tightly, and with this pain understanding, Xu You didn't dare to offer any more if he had a plan.

At this time, Feng Ji stood up and bowed: "Lord, the advantage of our army lies in the number of soldiers. So we should use this advantage to break the enemy with open plans. What is the authentic plan of Brother Ziyuan?

right way."

Feng Ji took the opportunity to belittle Xu You. Xu You's face darkened and he showed displeasure, but he was not good at talking and could only swallow his own bitterness.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he immediately cheered up and asked, "What is a conspiracy?"

Feng Ji sneered and told his plan with a weird look on his face.

Yuan Shao became more and more excited as he listened, and he clapped the table and said, "Yuantu's plan is very wonderful. I will follow your plan. I think that little beast can last for a long time. Haha~~"

The originally heavy atmosphere in the tent suddenly disappeared, and the proud breath spread again.

...

Two days later.

Yuan Fangzheng was discussing military affairs with Guo Jia and others in the tent. The scout suddenly came to report that it was the enemy outside the camp that was launching a large-scale move, as if there were signs of attacking the camp.

"Yuan Shao was frustrated the day before yesterday. Did he heal the wound so quickly?" said Hao Zhaoqi.

"Let's go, let's take a look." Yuan Fangteng stood up, lifted the skull-breaking stick and strode out.

Guo Jia, Hao Zhao and others followed Yuan Fang and rushed to the front line of the wall.

Looking up the wall and looking into the distance, we saw nearly 30,000 Jizhou troops, who were lined up more than ten square formations, approaching the barriers of the old drowned lands.

Seeing this, Yan Liang cursed: "Has Yuan Shao learned enough of this old dog? Lord, please summon all the soldiers of the army and give the old thief a heavy blow."

Yan Liang and other generals were all in a state of fighting and were ready to start a massacre.

Yuan Fang stared at the enemy, silent for a long time, his eyebrows slightly condensed, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

After pondering for a while, Yuan Fang pointed to the enemy's formation and said, "Look, there is no ladder rushing car in the enemy's army, which means that Yuan Shao does not intend to attack strongly. Moreover, the enemy's formation takes the lead with a large shield, and the rear row is full of heavy weapons such as long halberds, which is obvious.

It's a defensive formation."

Yuan Fang was insightful and soon saw through the abnormality of the enemy formation. Yan Liang and other generals scanned it and realized that this was true.

"Yuan Shao, this old dog, has such a formation, still wants us to fight? He thinks we are stupid." Yan Liang cursed with murmur.

"Yuan Shao didn't want to lure us into battle, he was afraid that we would attack." Guo Jia was gradually becoming solemn, as if he had seen something.

Yan Liang and the generals were so surprised that they all wanted to be strong and we were weak. Yuan Shao should have hoped that they would fight, so why would he be afraid that they would attack?

Yuan Fang had his eyebrows as sharp as a blade and he clenched his fists secretly, and he could see the clues.

In the field of vision, more than ten enemy formations continued to approach, and in a blink of an eye it had reached more than a hundred steps

This distance had already entered the range of the crossbow. Yuan Fang immediately ordered the strong bow and hard crossbow to shoot randomly to block the enemy's advance.

After the order was issued, arrows fell like rain in an instant, and more than a thousand sharp arrows rushed towards the enemy formation like locusts.

However, the Jizhou army seemed to have been prepared. The large shields raised high were extremely thick, layer by layer, forming copper and iron walls, effectively blocking most of the arrows.

The enemy's advancement could not be stopped at all.

Although Yuan Fang guessed what Yuan Shao wanted to do, in case of precaution, he urgently summoned the troops to climb the wall to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation to attack the camp.

More than 10,000 soldiers climbed the wall, and more arrows joined the arrows, but they were still unable to destroy the enemy's heavy shield formation.

Seeing that the enemy formation was approaching more than seventy, the more than ten square formations stopped moving forward.

As the Central Military Office ordered the flag to shake, more than ten formations changed rapidly, with shields and halberds forming thick walls, and crossbowmen lined up behind them, waiting for the battle.

Immediately afterwards, the enemy soldiers behind the formation did not attack, but instead shoveled up sand and soil with shovels.

The strange behavior of the Jizhou Army immediately surprised the soldiers on the wall, and were all inexplicably surprised.

"Damn it, what does this old thief Yuan Shao want to do? He won't want to dig tunnels again, right?" Yan Liang also shouted in confusion.

Yuan Fang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you see it yet? Yuan Shao wanted to rely on the large number of people to approach our camp to dig soil and erect the arrow tower, and to condescend to attack our camp directly with a bow and crossbow!"

Yuan Fang revealed Yuan Shao's intentions, and all the generals were shocked, but they seemed to be a little disbelief.

"This is impossible. Mo Jiang has never heard of this kind of tactic." Yan Liang shook his head with a big head, with a look of doubt.

Yuan Fang looked calm and said lightly: "Don't underestimate Yuan Shao. He still has many wise men under his command. What's so surprising if he came up with this plan."

A victory the day before yesterday did not make Yuan Fang confused, and he remained calm.

However, Yan Liang and other generals did not believe it and continued to observe the enemy with full of doubt.

Half an hour later, tens of thousands of Jizhou troops, under the cover of the formation, threw up soil and sand, and soon piled up earth piles about a meter high, and the appearance of the earth mountain was in its shape.

"So, the old dog Yuan Shao really wants to pile up the earth!" Yan Liang then suddenly realized and said anxiously: "Lord, what should we do now?"

"Shot me hard and stop me as much as possible!" Yuan Fang shouted in a deep voice.

Along the wall, more than a thousand crossbowmen shot wildly. Even some infantrymen who were not good at shooting arrows picked up crossbows and joined the ranks of random arrows.

The dense arrows fell like rain, but it was difficult to break the heavy shield defense of the Jizhou army.

Yuan Fang tried to send infantry to attack and destroy half of the enemy's earthen mountain, but he was afraid that he would not be able to break the enemy's defensive formation.

Infantry is useless and cavalry is useless, because Yuan Shao's three thousand cavalry are always on the line and are ready to intercept Yuan Fang's cavalry who are attacking at any time.

After half a day, the enemy finally built nearly twenty earth mountains on the line more than 70 steps away from the barrier and built an arrow tower on it.

A few hundred steps away, the central army's flag.

Yuan Shao looked at his Tushan Arrow Tower, and the tower trees rose one after another, and his old face became more and more proud.

Seeing that the earthen mountain was already formed, Yuan Shao raised his whip and shouted loudly: "Tell me my order, the crossbowman is divided into three teams to rotate, give me arrows to attack the enemy camp day and night. I want that little beast and his

A group of rebels were uneasy all night!"

The order was passed down, and nearly three thousand crossbowmen in Jizhou climbed up the earthen mountain and climbed the arrow tower. With a height of several feet, they began to shoot arrows towards the barriers of the old ditch from a high height.

In such an unfavorable situation, Yuan Fang and his soldiers could only hold their shields high and hide under the big shield to avoid arrows. They were suppressed so that they could not raise their heads at all.

The enemy's army was located on a high place and could see clearly the situation in Qingzhou camp. If there was a gap in the cover of a soldier, the rain-like arrows rushed over and shot the unfortunate soldier in an instant.

Become a hornet's nest.

After two days and night attacks, the enemy has completely suppressed Yuan Fang and his soldiers, and the morale of more than 10,000 soldiers is being rapidly reduced.

In order to solve this unfavorable situation, Yuan Fang immediately adopted Guo Jia's plan, mobilized craftsmen and soldiers, and set up a scattering machine on the front line of the wall under the enemy's rain of arrows.

Arrows can no longer break the enemy's earth mountain. Only by using the powerful attack power of the stone casting machine and stone bomb can we break the earth mountain arrow tower.

However, Yuan Shao had expected that he would shoot wildly in the direction of the thief machine with arrows. Under the suppression of dense arrows, the craftsmen and soldiers died and were injured, and all of them were working normally.

The tactic of using a catapult to break the enemy's earth mountain was ultimately unable to be implemented, so Yuan Fang had to give up.

Central Army tent.

Yuan Fang and the civil and military officials discussed solutions overnight, but at this time, even Guo Jia had no choice but to do anything, and the atmosphere in the big tent became particularly solemn.

"I have a way to break the old thief Yuan Shao's earthen mountain!"
