When Guo Jia heard that Yuan's army was three times that of his own, he was shocked. He quickly grabbed Han Zhan's arm and said, "Little Marquis, the enemy is powerful and our army is outnumbered. It is better to retreat temporarily and find a dangerous area to set up defenses. At the same time, he sent someone to report to General Zilong and ask him to send troops to help."

"Fengxiao, far water cannot relieve near thirst." Although Han Zhan felt a little panicked, in order not to cause panic among the soldiers, he still said to Guo Jia as usual: "Even if we send people to rush back to the city, it will take four or five hours to wait for Zilong to lead his troops to come. Even if we have not been completely wiped out by the enemy, Zilong's troops are still trapped and exhausted, how could they be the opponent of Yuan army who is waiting for their hard work?" After saying this, he asked the horse again, "Can you find out who the enemy is leading the army?"

The tentma replied: "When the Marquis said, in addition to seeing the big flag with the word "Yuan", the villain also saw the two flags of "Zhang" and "Gao".

Hearing that there were two flags of "Zhang" and "Gao", Han Zhan thought it would not be such a coincidence. The general of Yuan army leading the army was actually Zhang He, Gao Lan? If so, then the next battle would be easier. He then asked: "Where is Huang Junhou now?"

The explorer quickly replied: "Huang Junhou has set up a formation five miles away in front and is ready to face the enemy."

Han Zhan pointed the horse whip forward and ordered Dian Wei who was waiting for news: "We will continue to march and go to join forces with Huang Junhou."

Dian Wei originally had the same thoughts as Guo Jia, hoping that Han Zhan could withdraw his troops in time. But he didn't expect that Han Zhan actually ordered to continue the march, so he could only agree, but he was thinking: If he was defeated later, even if he fought for his life, he would still protect the marquis from the siege.

After walking for a stick of incense, Han Zhan saw Huang Zhong's vanguard from afar. Five hundred people lined up in five neat rows, facing the enemy army that was twenty times more than them, he was not panicked at all. The military marquis Huang Zhong was in front of the formation, waving a big sword to confront one person.

Han Zhan originally thought that the person who fought against Huang Zhong was Zhang He. After closer inspection, he found that the weapon used by the man was a knife rather than a gun, so he found that the person who was indistinguishable from Huang Zhong was Gao Lan.

Han Zhan came to the front of the formation and looked at the opposite side. He saw a military general holding a spear in front of the Yuan army. He was staring at the two people fighting in the field with a vigilant gaze. Han Zhan recognized at a glance that the general was no one else, but Zhang He whom he was familiar with.

Although Gao Lan is one of the "Four Pillars of Hebei", he is obviously the one with the worst martial arts among the four. He fought with Huang Zhong for more than twenty rounds. Seeing that he could not resist, he turned his horse and ran back. How could Huang Zhong let him go easily, he also urged the horse to chase him.

Seeing Gao Lan defeated, Zhang He roared and rushed forward towards Huang Zhong. The two men quickly fought to the same place. Seeing the two gritting their teeth, they were shot and shot. Guo Jia beside Han Zhan said in a low voice: "Little Marquis, from the military uniform, the army opposite is all Jizhou army, and there was no Bohai army. Maybe we can try to pull Zhang He over!"

Han Zhan thought for a moment and decided to take a risk. He urged Ma to rush towards the two people who were fighting fiercely. At the same time, he shouted: "Stop, stop, stop fighting!"

Huang Zhong and Zhang He, who were in full swing, heard Han Zhan's shouts, fought with one move, put away his weapons, pulled back, and turned his eyes to Han Zhan who was rushing towards him.

Han Zhan came to Huang Zhong's side and asked loudly at Zhang He who was a few steps away: "General Junyi, you are the old subordinate of your father, why do you want to serve the Yuan thief?"

After seeing Han Zhan's mourning clothes clearly, Zhang He was shocked: "Young Master, I wonder who are you wearing mourning for?"

Hearing Zhang He's question, Han Zhan almost fell off the horse's back, thinking that I was launching troops to attack Yuan Shao, in the name of avenging my father. You still don't know it now, right? He said with some amusement: "My father and the Han family were killed by the thief Yuan, so I raised troops to avenge my family. The filial piety clothes I wore were wearing were mourning for my family who died unjustly."

When he heard that Han Fu was dead, the muscles on Zhang He's face twitched violently for a few times. He was silent for a long time before he asked, "Young Master, Yuan is a kind and righteous man and has a prominent family background. How could he do such a thing that is worse than beasts? Could it be that someone is trying to provoke it?"

"General Jun Yi, Feng Ji Gou, used a trick to disguise his father's messenger, and deceived Han's family from Jizhou. On the way, he sent someone to disguise himself as a robber. Fortunately, the sky had eyes, and one brother and a sister escaped by chance, so I reported this to me. My father was originally in Chenliu and Zhang Miao's place, but the day when Yuan thief sent the messenger, there was a message of suicide." Han Zhan said indignantly: "These things were clearly stated in front of everyone in the provincial governor's mansion in Jizhou."

When Zhang He learned that the deaths of the Han family and the Han family were all related to Yuan Shao, he couldn't help but speak in silence.

Seeing that Zhang He didn't speak, Han Zhan began to persuade him: "Yuan Zhe was narrow-minded and difficult to tolerate others. General Junyi was better than being harmed by him sooner or later than being harmed by him..."

Before Han Zhan could persuade him to surrender, Zhang He raised his hand and interrupted him: "Young Master, don't say much. Although the Han family is a little kind to Zhang, Zhang is now a subordinate of Yuan Jizhou. How can he easily bear the master? Thinking of the kindness of the past, I won't kill you all today, so you should retreat. Otherwise, Zhang will not show mercy until tomorrow."

After saying that, he didn't give Han Zhan a chance to speak, so he turned around and walked into the formation. The soldiers who were waiting for the battle turned around and retreated in an orderly manner.

Guo Jia came to Han Zhan and asked carefully: "Little Marquis, Zhang He is so stubborn. It seems that it is very difficult to persuade him to surrender. Before the sky is dark, we might as well withdraw our troops, right?"

"Retreat? No!" Han Zhan denied Guo Jia's proposal without hesitation: "Even if we withdraw our troops now, Zhang He will lead his army to follow us. Instead of fighting with him in a decisive battle outside Guangping City, it is better to solve this matter here. Huang Zhong, Dian Wei!"

"Here!" Huang Zhong, Dian Wei and the others quickly answered loudly.

"Retreat five miles and set up a camp!"

"Here!"

…………

While setting up a camp, Guo Jia asked Han Zhan: "Little Marquis, I haven't figured out something I've never figured out. I want to ask you for advice!"

When Han Zhan heard Guo Jia’s question, he was stunned. He thought that what he had done actually made Guo Jia confused. He hurriedly said, "Please speak for me with Xiao!"

"I see, every time you send troops to fight, no matter who leads the troops, it will be limited to three thousand." Guo Jia looked at Han Zhan and asked, "What is the reason?"

"So that's the matter." Han Zhan replied with a smile on his face: "It's very simple, Fengxiao, don't see that I have been conquering and accepting rebels along the way since I sent troops to Sheguo County. The troops increased from the original 5,000 speed to more than 10,000. But the qualifications of the generals under my command were too shallow, and they had no experience in commanding large troops to fight. Zhao Yun, the highest-ranking general, was originally just a hundred-man general under Zhang He, who was in charge of bandit suppression, had experience in commanding thousands of people to fight; Dian Wei was just a flag-carried under Zhang Miao, and he had no experience in leading troops at all. As for Huang Zhong and Xiahou Lan, except for their high martial arts skills and a little understanding of military tactics, they also had no practical experience.

You know, there have never been many famous generals born, and famous generals have gradually grown up in actual combat. The reason why I send not many soldiers every time is simply that I want these generals to accumulate more experience and become famous generals who can stand alone step by step."
