The sunset is extremely beautiful, but it is almost dusk.↑,

On the official road, hundreds of thousands of Taiping thieves were advancing rapidly. In front of them was Yecheng and the last fortress in Jizhou. As long as the fortress was broken, the victory or defeat was determined.

On the frame, Xiao Lan looked through the battle report that had just been delivered to his hands and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, very good, good one, good one, good one, good one, Deng Ai, Yuan Shao sent Yan Liang and Ju Yi to concentrate their superior forces and defeat our army one by one. Unfortunately, this good plan has been exposed!"

"Oh?" Next to him, Xi Zhicai, who was accompanying him, couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Ju Yi and Yan Liang are the most powerful general under Yuan Shao. Lord, what is the situation on the front line?"

"Two days ago, Ju Yixing's strategy of attacking the east and west, and he made it clear that Yan Liang would challenge evil in front of the formation, but sent someone to sneak attack our army's vanguard camp from the rear. Unexpectedly, Xu Sheng and Deng Ai saw through, set up an ambush in advance, and he defeated him!" Xiao Lan said with a smile: "Yesterday, the two armies had another battle in front of the formation. Yan Liang was seriously injured and captured. Ju Yi was defeated and trapped in a valley by Xu Sheng."

Upon hearing this, Xi Zhicai couldn't help but lit up his eyes and said repeatedly: "There are only more than 100,000 defenders in Yecheng. Now that we have taken three out of ten, it is the best news for our Taiping Army. Zhong is here to congratulate the lord first. It seems that it will be much easier to capture Yecheng this time than we expected in advance."

Jiang Gan asked: "Lord, although Ju Yi is only a remnant army, it should not be underestimated. Should people be sent to increase General Xu Sheng?"

"No need." Xiao Lan said calmly: "With Xu Sheng and Deng Ai's ability and the fighting power of evil, Ju Yi is extraordinary, but since he is trapped, he can't make any big waves. At present, our first priority is to take down Yecheng!"

Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "Yuan Shao was the leader recognized by the princes of the world in the past. He was the fourth generation and third emperor of the Great Han Dynasty. After defeating him, the Han Dynasty was the only one left. I don't know that he is now living well under Cao Cao's men in Taiyuan, Bingzhou?"

"Emperor Yuan Shao Xian. However, the dry bones in the tomb are qualified to be my last opponent, Cao Cao." As Xiao Lan spoke, a disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. To this day, the matter in Jizhou has been a foregone conclusion, and Yuan Shao, as the former lord of Jizhou, is still in Yecheng at this moment, and there is no opinion at all. If such a person is not the advantage of the innate family, what qualifications are there to be as his opponent?!

In Yecheng, the conference hall, Xu You, Feng Ji and others frowned, and Shen Pei couldn't help but ask: "The Taiping Army's army has arrived one after another, what is Yan Liang doing?"

When they asked Yan Liang and Ju Yi to lead the army to fight, they wanted to concentrate their superior forces and defeat all the Taiping Army that was attacking in the future. However, now the Taiping Army is really coming one by one, and it will soon gather together, but the battle report of Yan Liang's army is not coming back, so how could they not be anxious about it? It would be fine if Yan Liang was brave but not a strategy, but there was a general like Ju Yi in the army, how could it be defeated so easily?

If they knew that outside Yecheng, Yan Liang had tried his best to fight Dian Wei, so that Ju Yi could only fight east and west with his limited troops, but ended up in a big defeat. I wonder if he would vomit three liters of blood? Unfortunately, Yan Liang was defeated and captured, and Ju Yi was trapped, and no one could pass the battle report back to Yecheng.

"It's important. We should go to ask the lord immediately to tell the truth!" Although we didn't know what happened to Yan Liang's army, Feng Ji and others had a bad premonition in their hearts.

After all, it is related to his own survival, so there is no need to invite him three or four. However, although Yuan Shao came out, he looked frowning and did not have the stance of a hero and overlord?

"Lord, something is not good!" As soon as Tian Feng opened his mouth, he was full of worry.

"Oh?" As for the civil officials and strategists under his command who could not help him solve his problems, such alarmist words made a ray of haze flash across Mei Yuan Shaoyu, and he felt a little unhappy. But he also knew that the army of Taiping thieves was approaching and Jizhou was at the right time to use people, so he suppressed this emotion very well and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"

He keenly noticed a trace of dissatisfaction in Yuan Shao's words. Tian Feng looked up and looked at Yuan Shao with some confusion, and then dispelled the doubts in his heart. At this time, it was not the time to think about these messy things. He responded in a deep voice: "Yan Liang led a 50,000 army out of the city to defeat the enemy. It has been three days since he had not received any news, but he was afraid that it would still be in danger."

"What?!" Yuan Shao's face changed drastically when he heard this. Yan Liang was one of the two top generals around him. With the 50,000 army, he was lost for Yecheng, which was almost a fatal blow.

Ju Su said in a deep voice: "Now the peace thief is in a strong position, and it is urgent. We should first think about the way out."

"The way out?" Yuan Shao looked at Ju Su coldly and said coldly: "Just, this is Yecheng, the last fortress of Jizhou. If you ask me to retreat, where can I retreat? Besides, if I lose Jizhou, wouldn't we let the world laugh at me? Where will I place the name of the three masters of the Yuan family?

Upon hearing this, Ju Su couldn't help but be anxious. When was it time? What's the name of the three ministers of the fourth generation? What's the use of keeping a great reputation? But he didn't say this after all. After all, he was not Tian Feng. He knew that Yuan Shao had arguing with him, but he kept persuading him.

At this moment, a sudden noise came from outside. Yuan Shao heard it and couldn't help but be furious: "Random, domineering! Who dares to make noise here?"

"Report" accompanied by an urgent report, but saw a personal guard running in with panic on his face, half kneeling on the ground, and said anxiously: "Lord, something is wrong. Our army's food route was cut off by the Taiping thief, and there is not much food and grass left in the city!"

"What?!" This time, Yuan Shao really couldn't sit still. The Jizhou official army was defeated in succession, and his morale was almost gone. If there was no food or grass, it would be even worse. For Yuan Shao, who was already trapped inside and outside at this moment, it would definitely be a fatal blow.

It's over! Not only Yuan Shao, but all the civil officials and strategists present couldn't help but feel dizzy. It has to be said that the Taiping Army's move was too cruel and extremely powerful, and almost hit their fatal key with one blow. They were sure that this news should have already spread to the ears of the defenders of Yecheng City at this moment. Even if they knew this news, it would have no meaning.

"It's over, it's over!" Yuan Shao sat down on the ground, his eyes were lost, and even personal guards came to report that there were turmoil in the city's defenders, and a large number of defeated troops fled. Although General Wen Chou and others tried their best to restrain him, the entire army mutiny. Even if he had extraordinary courage, it would be difficult to turn the tide.

When Xiao Lan led more than 200,000 troops to approach Yecheng, the four gates of Yecheng, which should have been as solid as a living, had already opened, and a large number of defeated troops flocked out of the city.

"I inform the entire army that we will not rush to attack the city, and order all troops to control the defeated army in Yecheng according to their respective positions." Xiao Lan spoke in a deep voice, and there was an indescribable majesty in his words. With Yuan Shao's demise, these defeated troops may become refugees, but the greater possibility is to occupy the mountains and become kings and harm the countryside. Now that Jizhou is about to become his own territory, he naturally does not want the people under his command to suffer such a disaster!

The army of more than 100,000 was completely mutinized and disintegrated in a short period of time. Yuan Shao looked at the chaos in front of him and the uncontrolled chaos in a daze. Now, there are only three or five thousand people left by his side. However, even though most of these people are his confidants, the number of people is also decreasing sharply.

Yuan Shao never thought that after his four generations and three kings, the princes and leaders would fall to the curtain of life with such a miserable appearance when his life was about to reach its peak.

"Lord, the situation is over, let's take advantage of the chaos to break through!" Tian Feng, Feng Ji and others hurried to Yuan Shao, looked at Yuan Shao with a dull look, and quickly spoke out and persuaded him. In the current situation, Jizhou can no longer stay there. Otherwise, how could they have a way out under the Taiping Army's military front? (To be continued.)
