"Zhang Xiu was originally a little soldiers and dared to divide the troops. He also stationed his main force in a Jedi like Maijishan, which is really contrary to the way of military strategy. This thief is seeking death."

Fa Zheng was a Guanzhong person and was very familiar with the Guanlong terrain. When he heard this information, he immediately saw the enemy's flaws.

When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately shouted: "Since that's the case, what are we waiting for? The king immediately advanced to break Jieting, besiege Maiji Mountain, and destroy Zhang Xiu's dog thief."

Ma Chao was eager to take revenge, so he naturally wanted to kill Zhang Xiu immediately.

At this time, Yuan Fang, who had been pondering for a long time, said calmly: "Meng Qi, don't be anxious. Sooner or later, there will be a time when you will take revenge. At present, our army has only 40,000, which is not enough to break the enemy's siege. The attack is too fast, and it may make Zhang Xiu condescending and rush down the mountain with one go. Our army may lose."

Yuan Fang was very calm. He had led the cavalry to come to the night before, just to seize Jieting before the enemy could not defend themselves.

The enemy in Jieting is ready now, and Zhang Xiu also made a serious mistake unexpectedly, stationing the main force in Maijishan instead of Jieting City at the main entrance of the fifth route. In this way, Yuan Fang naturally did not rush.

Now, he has to change his strategy and wait until the subsequent infantry arrives, relying on his absolute advantage in military strength to quickly break through Jieting City and complete the siege of Maijishan.

Yuan Fang was not in a hurry, and Ma Chao had to press his revenge first and follow the orders.

At that moment, Yuan Fan ordered the camp to go to Jieting five miles east of Jieting. While holding the troops, he sent someone to urge the subsequent 200,000 troops to come to Jieting to meet as soon as possible.

...

On the top of Maiji Mountain, the huge character "Zhang" is under the banner, and Zhang Xiu stood proudly.

Looking at the Qi army who did not dare to force the city to go down and camped only five miles away, Zhang Xiu raised a proud and arrogant sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"What Wenhe said is indeed correct. Yuan Fang must be afraid of my condescending power, so he dare not force the city to surround the mountain. Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang, if you have the courage, come to surround the mountain. See how I condescending power and destroy your troops, so that you can know that I, Zhang Xiu, is really powerful, hehe~~"

Confident and proud, Zhang Xiu had no worries, but was only assured and bold as he continued to build fortifications on Maiji Mountain.

...

A few days later, more than 200,000 Qi infantry and army successively advanced to the Jieting line, with continuous battle flags and soldiers extending from the camp to the east, and no end can be seen at a glance.

When the main infantry arrived, Yuan Fang ordered Zhang Fei, Wei Yan and Xu Huang to encircle Maijishan with an army of 100,000, which further cut off Zhang Xiu's way of drawing water.

After the siege of the mountain was completed, Yuan Fang himself led more than 100,000 infantry and cavalry to form a threat to Jieting City and prepare to launch a large-scale attack on the city.

Although Jia Xu guarded Jieting City, there were only 5,000 soldiers and horses, and the city walls were short and old. As the saying goes, a clever wife could not cook without rice. Yuan Fang believed that even Jia Xu, the poisonous man, could not stop the full siege of his 100,000 troops.

A hundred thousand army has been completed.

Yuan Fang could easily razor the small Jieting City to the ground with just a light wave of his whip.

Just as Yuan Fang raised his halberd and was about to issue an order to attack, the Jieting city gate suddenly opened unexpectedly.

Immediately afterwards, the four gate suspension bridge was lowered, and the four gates of Jieting were erected at the top of the city.

The enemy surrendered without fighting?

The soldiers of Qi army who were planning to attack the city were all very surprised, and they were surprised that the enemy would surrender in the face of war.

"Jia Xu, are you..." Yuan Fang thought about it, as if he guessed eight or nine points.

At this moment, Yuan Jian ordered the attack to be suspended and wait and see what happened.

Sure enough, not long after, several cavalry came out of Jieting City, held high the flag and rushed towards Yuan Fangzhong's army.

Soon, these riders were guarded by patrols and came to Yuan Fangma.

The literati with white hair and beard turned over and dismounted, bowed and said, "Xiliang Jia Xu, I have met His Highness the King of Qi."

Jia Xu! It’s true that Jia Xu is coming to surrender!

Yuan Fang laughed, turned over and dismounted, helped Jia Xu up, and asked with a smile: "Jia Wenhe, you, the poisonous man in Xiliang, have you surrendered to me in the last battle. Which drama is this?"

"Cough cough." Jia Xu coughed a few times and said lightly: "Zhang Xiu did not listen to my advice, insisted on opposing His Highness, and even did not hesitate to attack General Ma. I repeatedly advised him but did not listen. I knew that Zhang Xiu was not a wise ruler. Now that his highness is coming to attack, he claimed that he should abandon Ming and surrender to Ming. He also used 5,000 iron cavalry and this Jieting Pass as my courtesy of surrender. I would like to accept it with a smile."

After hearing what Jia Xu said, Yuan Fang suddenly realized and couldn't help but secretly praise Jia Xu for being smart and worthy of being a poisonous man.

Yuan Fang is familiar with history and knows that Jia Xu is extremely smart and has the best skills to protect himself.

When Dong Zhuo was killed, the Xiliang army was in trouble. In order to avoid disaster, Jia Xu offered plans to the Xiliang generals to jointly attack Chang'an, and drove Lu Bu away, killed Wang Yun, and re-hijacked the Han emperor.

In history, Jia Xu judged the situation in an even more manner. Before the Battle of Guandu, he persuaded Zhang Xiu to surrender to Cao Cao, but he won Cao Cao's trust.

Later, when the Cao family's sons competed for the throne, Jia Xu chose to stand on Cao Pi's side more wisely, so that after Cao Pi successfully seized the throne, he always treated him well.

Now Zhang Xiu is cruel and vicious, and he is willing to attack the alliance Ma Teng. Jia Xu even sees that Yuan Fang is in a big way, and Zhang Xiu is definitely not an opponent. Understanding the situation, surrendering Yuan Fang is also his style of self-protection.

Moreover, Jia Xu did not come to surrender alone, but used 5,000 iron cavalry and a Jieting Fortress as a gift for surrender. It can be seen that this person is very smart and knows how to use these gifts to surrender to improve his surrender.

"Poison Soldier, Wenhe, you are really well-known, but how do you know that I will accept you?" Yuan Fang changed his tone and asked.

Jia Xu smiled and said lightly: "Most half of the civil and military elites under Your Highness are surrendered ministers. It can be seen that Your Highness has the demeanor of a king and can make the heroes in the world serve you. And Xu and Your Highness have no blood hatred. With Your Highness's mind and demeanor, how can you not tolerate Xu?"

Jia Xu, a poisonous man, was extremely accurate in judging from human abilities. He expected that Yuan Fang had this kind of demeanor, so he dared to surrender in large quantities.

"What a kingly demeanor!"

Yuan Fang was not hypocritical, and was flattered by Jia Xu's compliment, and said proudly: "The poisonous man is coming back, and I will add another top counselor under my command. Why worry about the unfairness in the world? Wenhe, I will accept your surrender!"

Yuan Fang was in a very good mood and rewarded Jia Xu on the spot.

Immediately, Yuan Jian ordered the incorporation of 5,000 Xiliang troops and planted the battle flag of Daqi onto the head of Jieting City.

Then, a hundred thousand troops turned east, gathered 200,000 troops, and formed a tide of soldiers like a vast ocean at the foot of Maiji Mountain.

At this moment, Zhang Xiu had clearly seen the battle flag of Qi flying above Jieting City on the top of Maiji Mountain.
Chapter completed!
