Chapter 632 (1/2)
”Please give me your instructions.”
”Lead the general, you will straighten out all the soldiers and horses in the city. After two hours, you will retreat with our army to the East.” Ju said frankly.
”Retreat? What? ” Rao is a young and mature man. Hearing this, he can't help but be surprised. Huguan is the barrier between Bingzhou and Jizhou. If the Bingzhou army can hold Huguan, it will be a one-man pass, and Jizhou army can not enter. If the Jizhou army could control Huguan, it would be like tai'e hanging upside down. The front of Jizhou army could point to any place in Bingzhou at any time.
”Huguan is the barrier of the two states, and its importance is self-evident.” ”How can we give in to each other?” he frowned
”If we let the Bingzhou army occupy Huguan, we must be on guard.” ”If our army wants to win Huguan again, there will be countless casualties,” he said
”Well, that's what the general said.” Ju also nodded and said in a deep way, ”but do you think that the Bingzhou army in this war will be out of the way?”
”Oh?”
”The battle of Yecheng is the decisive battle between Liu Yuqing and Yuan Gong!” Ju Xu said slowly: ”in this war, the LORD did not hesitate to pay Yuyang and Shanggu counties as the conditions for Wuhuan people to send troops. He gave up the good situation of our army in Bingzhou, just to gather all the strength to destroy Liu Ye's army at one stroke!”
Ju Xun clenched his five fingers tightly and became a fist. He said coldly: ”in this battle, we should not only eliminate the Liangzhou elite under Liu Ye at one stroke, but also take advantage of the situation to kill Lv Bu.”
”Lu Bu was suppressed by our army before he abandoned Huguan. His character was always arrogant. When he arrived, he would surely lead the army to Yecheng and win it in one fell swoop. It would save our army another expedition to merge states.” Ju explained.
”That's why...” after understanding this, he said in a slight anger: ”however, the Lord gave up Shanggu and Yuyang counties in order to help Wu Huan's troops. In this way, tens of thousands of people were not enslaved?”
”Alas Ju gave a pat on the shoulder and sighed: ”Ziping, I know you always hate barbarians. But if you don't help us this time, I'm afraid our army is not the opponent of Liangzhou army. This is also the decision made by the Lord under helpless circumstances. There is no way.”
”Hum!” Holding Zhao's heart was filled with anger, and he snorted, and his face was black.
”Ziping.” Ju said: ”as long as this war can defeat the Liangzhou army, then our army will gain momentum, and it will not be difficult to pacify the world at that time. When the right time comes, I will tell the Lord to take back the Yuyang and Shanggu counties. After all, the Wuhuan people are ambitious. To cooperate with them is to seek the skin of a tiger. Now you have to be patient for a while, eh? ”
He was always hostile to Wu Huan and Xianbei, but he didn't want to disobey Yuan Shao's orders. His fists were tightly squeezed together and he made a banging sound.
After a long time, the pulling movement seemed to lose strength all over the body. His face softened down, and his body seemed to be bent.
”Yes, general.”
Seeing the icy look of Qianzhao, Ju gave a sigh and didn't say anything. He just patted the shoulder of Qianzhao and then walked out.
A moment later, he ordered two thousand guards to pack their bags, pack up, and withdraw from Huguan. They joined the army under juxu's command, totaling more than 26000 troops, and withdrew toward the East.
On the other hand, the high flying military flag with the character of Yuan had long been removed from the hutuan pass. The whole tower was empty and there was no one at all. Even the city gate was opened.
Shortly after the withdrawal of the Jizhou army, a group of more than 1000 people from Bingzhou came to the west of Huguan. The leading general was like Ziyu with a sickle in the huanglonggou valley. Zhang Liao, one of the eight elite generals under Lv Bu's command, came here with a magnificent general.
”Captain Zhang, the enemy's gate is wide open, and there is no shadow above the city. It seems that there is no enemy.”
