    What does good luck mean? It is right now.

    After Liu Ke attacked Cao Cao, knowing that he could not expand his victory, he returned to Guangling County without stopping.

    Tai Shici was also very surprised when he saw Liu Ke.

    Once the two sides were combined, Liu Ke knew that there was a big flaw in Guo Jia's plan.

    That means the terrain is not suitable.

    There was no suitable ambush location nearby, so Guo Jia could only choose the hilly area.

    They are all low hills, which cannot hide tens of thousands of troops.

    However, Liu Ke¡¯s timely arrival made up for this flaw.

    Tens of thousands of Yangzhou cavalry directly attacked the Allied cavalry. If it were in the wilderness, it would definitely be a wonderful and angry fight.

    "However, the Allied cavalry has stopped, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

    There is no way forward, and there is no way back.

    Seeing this, Gongsun Zan knew that the situation was irreversible, so he fled from the flank with his bodyguards, and only a few thousand horsemen followed him.

    What follows is a massacre.

    Nearly 50,000 cavalrymen could not hold out for half an hour. Some died, some were wounded, some fled, and some surrendered.

    Among them, Cao Bao surrendered the most simply, shouting directly: "I have an old relationship with the Marquis of Dongyang, please don't resist, surrender and avoid death!"

    He actually took the initiative to persuade him to surrender, which can be described as a weird thing among weird things.

    Guo Jia was in a good mood and accepted the prisoners.

    "Greetings to my lord!" Guo Jiada said.

    "No gifts, you did a good job." Liu Ke praised, he got a bargain as soon as he came back, he felt that it was okay.

    Almost all the elite cavalry of the Allied forces are here, and they can be served directly.

    Yangzhou¡¯s only loss was that it exposed a trump card.

    Guo Jia briefly introduced the situation. Fortunately, the number of Allied troops on this road has dropped sharply to about 350,000.

    Liu Ke moved left and right, directly knocking the heads of the allies.

    At this moment, Lu Bu hurried back and reported:

    "My lord, Gongsun Zan has escaped!"

    It has to be said that Gongsun Zan is an old fox. When he saw a bad opportunity, he decisively abandoned his troops and fled, otherwise he would have been a prisoner at this moment.

    "There is no need to blame yourself. After cleaning the battlefield, it's time for brothers to take a rest." Liu Kedao.

    After long-distance raids, eating, drinking, and sleeping on horseback, the Yangzhou cavalry proved their perseverance and strength with their actions.

    Speaking of Gongsun Zan, Guo Jia suddenly remembered a person and said:

    "Cao Baohow to deal with it?"

    "Detain him first and leave him alone." Liu Kedao added, "When the war is over, let him go."

    That night, Liu Ke held a grand celebration banquet, and the military camp was filled with joy.

    In comparison, the Allies were much quieter.

    Gongsun Zan had a bitter face and almost burst into tears.

    "Let me tell you, how could Marquis Dongyang leave so easily?" Yuan Shao suddenly said seriously.

    Although he was heartbroken after losing 10,000 cavalry, Gongsun Zan lost 50,000, so he wasa little happy.

    A while ago, Gongsun Zan was extremely arrogant, but now he is finally honest.

    ¡°Everyone has lost, who are you laughing at?

    If we take it more seriously, Gongsun Zan suffered the greatest loss and Yuan Shao suffered the least.

    "Little leader, now is not the time to gloat, but what should our army do?" Liu Bei said, which can be regarded as helping Gongsun Zan.

    Yuan Shao is very unhappy, can you please stop calling him Little Alliance Leader?

    "Bogui, don't let yourself get up after a fall." Liu Bei said again.

    "Humph, I haven't lost yet. It would be unkind to not avenge this!" Gongsun Zan said fiercely.

    "The Marquis of Dongyang played a false camp plan, which made us very passive. Therefore, we must work together. Next, I will give the orders. Do you agree?" Yuan Shao said.

    Now, the cavalry is almost completely lost and can only rely on infantry.

    This time, Yuan Shao had no intention of giving in and directly seized power, very directly and clearly.

    Yuan Shao at most lost a vanguard, while Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan both ended up personally, and the result of defeat has different meanings.

    Just when the two were about to surrender, Cao Cao's letter was also delivered.

    The contents of the letter surprised the three of them.

    Although Cao Cao kept scolding him in his letters, it vaguely reflectedAfter shooting out, the Marquis of Dongyang flew towards Runan and attacked Cao Cao's army.

    The four of them suddenly felt that they were in the same boat.

    Dongyang Hou defeated Liu Bei in Xuzhou, then ran to Runan to cause trouble for Cao Cao, and finally returned to Guangling to give Gongsun Zan a fatal blow.

    Everyone was stunned. Is Dongyang Hou really a god?

    Gongsun Zan didn't want to know, but he figured out one thing and said, "Who said that the Marquis of Dongyang was playing a false plan?"

    Yuan Shao's expression suddenly became very exciting. Although it was his fault for letting Dongyang Hou leave from under his nose, you can't blame me for the defeat, right?

    "Everyone, please be kind and let's talk and come up with a solution!" Liu Bei said with a smile, there was no way, the two of them were about to fight, so he could only stand up and be the peacemaker.

    If the Allies are really defeated and Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan pat their butts and leave, what will he do?

    Xuzhou is close to Yangzhou, and the cavalry can arrive overnight.

    Are we going to live a life of fear from now on?

    "Build a camp and guard the border." Yuan Shao said.

    Gongsun Zan couldn't help but look down upon him, snatching the command right just to hold on?

    "The order given to us by the alliance leader Cao Cao is to hold back the main force in Yangzhou, and I agree to stick to it." Gongsun Zan said.

    If the leader of the alliance says something that is beneficial to you, then listen to it.  If there is no benefit, who is the leader?

    "In that case, let's stick to it." Liu Bei nodded, "But we can't let the Marquis of Dongyang come to Runan inexplicably again, right?"

    It really is!

    The first time I ran to Runan, I was already challenging Cao Cao's patience. If I go the second time, I'm afraid I will receive news of the defeat of the alliance leader!

    Gongsun Zan gritted his teeth and said, "Send more scouts!"

    It¡¯s simple to say, how can it be so easy?  All the cavalry have been defeated by you!  The remaining few thousand may not be enough to defeat you.

    "We will use mixed scouts on foot and cavalry. A team of five will be divided into parts and assigned a horse. Only those who report the news can ride a horse." Gongsun Zan said.

    This idea is so refreshing and refined!

    Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were stunned.

    Since ancient times, in order to quickly deliver information, scouts have been riding horses.  There are also infantry scouts, but relatively few.

    ??According to the current intensity of combat, once a scout without horses is discovered, it will be a dead end and there is no way to run. All we can do is pray for good luck and find a small forest.

    However, I have to praise Gongsun Zan. This suggestion is very suitable for the current predicament.

    At the same time, breaking it into parts can also reduce losses.

    So, Tai Shici, who was in charge of patrolling, discovered that more and more people were spying on the camp recently. At first, he thought they were common people, but he woke up after Guo Jia reminded him.

    It¡¯s bloody again.

    However, the Allied forces finally stood firm and set up camp at the junction of Xiapi and Guangling.

    Three hundred and fifty thousand troops, with camps hundreds of miles apart.

    Similarly, Liu Ke sent people to challenge him, but there was no response, as if there were no living people in the camp except for guards.

    Being so timid has simply refreshed Liu Ke¡¯s outlook on life.

    The situation once again turned into a protracted war.

    "The Allies have lost their cavalry, so I'm afraid they don't plan to go to war." Liu Ye sighed.

    "Can we make another surprise attack on Runan?" Lu Bu asked.

    "It's impossible. Firstly, Yuan Shao and others must have sent scouts to stay on guard. Secondly, Cao Cao's army must have been on guard." Guo Jia said sadly.

    The two "affirmations" directly cut off Lu Bu's thoughts.

    However, Liu Ke still tried, pretending to attack Runan to lure Yuan Shao into battle.

    "It's a pity that the cavalry went wandering around for seven days, but Yuan Shao still didn't move.

    Even Liu Ke¡¯s attack on the camp at night did not achieve much results.

    The meaning of Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei is very clear. They are not going to bully you, but they are going to hold on and wait for a flaw to appear in Yangzhou.

    And Liu Ke really has a huge flaw, and that is the land of Jiaozhou.

    Jiaozhou is a place that Liu Ke half-abandoned in his strategy, so it can easily become a breakthrough point.

    What¡¯s more, the one who made the breakthrough was Sun Ce, the little overlord.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
