At first, when the news of Gao Gao's rebellion and surrender to the Jin army reached Jizhou, Yuan Shao was so angry that he originally wanted to behead all Gao Gao's family members as a warning to others.
However, at the most critical moment, counselor Yuan Xi dissuaded Yuan Shao and saved the lives of the high-spirited family members.
In Yuan Xi's view, since the high-spirited rebellion is a foregone conclusion, at this time, no matter how many people Yuan Shao kills, it will not have much effect other than venting his anger.
And if it was just to vent anger, then this killing would have no meaning, at least no substantive meaning.
On the contrary, in Yuan Xi's view, not only is there no need to kill these high-ranking family members, but they should be treated preferentially. For Yuan Shao, this point of view has many benefits of being invisible, which is better than simply venting his anger.
too much.
On the other hand, leaving these high-cost family members behind may be useful somewhere in the future.
It is precisely because after Gao Gao's rebellion, not only was his family not affected, but he was treated preferentially by Yuan Shao. On the contrary, everyone within the Yuan Shao Group hated Gao Gao, the traitorous general. This time, after meeting him, they would naturally not take it easy.
Let him go.
It is precisely because of this that Gao Gao was chased in such an awkward manner.
"Lord, General Gao Gao has been defeated! The enemy is about to pursue us!" a messenger reported in a panic.
"Let's explore again!" Li Xiang didn't show any unnecessary expression.
In this high-spirited ambush, Li Xiang had absolutely no qualms about it, and he really went all out to set up the ambush.
However, the enemy themselves had roughly guessed that there would be an ambush ahead, so they were cautious. In addition, the person leading the pursuit was not a mediocre person. It was naturally not that simple to successfully ambush.
"It seems that we need to stimulate the enemy army!" Li Xiang muttered to himself.
Although he has other arrangements, there is no such thing as a 100% successful ambush in this world. He can only use various means to continuously increase the probability of success!
"Send the order, abandon unnecessary burdens, and speed up the entire army!" Li Xiang directly ordered.
The other one, Yuan Chonghuan, who was chasing after him, suddenly became anxious when he saw the heavy loads that Li Xiang ordered the entire army to abandon.
After discarding these unnecessary burdens, Li Xiang and the others' speed will inevitably increase greatly, making it even more difficult to catch them.
"It seems that Jin Ni delayed us with an ambush, but he turned back to Hulao Pass at full speed. With the current speed of our army, it may not be easy to catch up with the enemy!" Yuan Chonghuan said with some distress.
"General Yuan, please order our army to also give up the burden. Jin's rebellion is right in front of us. If we miss this great opportunity, it will be too late in the future!" Yin Zhou suggested.
Yuan Shao demanded that other allied forces must also send strong generals to join the chasing army, and the others should send more or less decent figures. And Yin Zhou was the general sent by Han Xin to support the chasing army. This
He is also a world-famous and fierce general.
In addition to Yin Zhou, Han Xin also sent Jiang Chen, whose strength was unfathomable. Since he wanted to chase, he should try his best to make the success rate this time as high as possible.
Moreover, even if there is an ambush, these two people can break out directly with their abilities, and there will be basically no actual losses for their side.
"That's fine!" Yuan Chonghuan originally had some struggles, but when he was struggling, he became more and more afraid that some people would give him some undue encouragement.
Therefore, this resulted in Yuan Chonghuan's return from defeat, and at the same time, the death of two god-level warriors from the Northern Alliance of Lords. Moreover, these two god-level warriors who died in battle actually included a high-ranking general.
A god-level warrior.
"Send the order, the whole army should give up the extra burden and march with all strength!" Yuan Chonghuan also gave the order.
As Cong Yin Zhou said, this is a great opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity to kill Li Xiang.
………………
"What! Yuan Chonghuan is confused!" When the news reached the rear, Han Xin directly cursed.
"Quick, General Guan Yu, lead fifteen thousand elite cavalry and set off quickly, otherwise it will be too late!" Han Xin said again.
Although Yuan Shao advocated forming another 15,000 fine cavalry to follow Guan Ning's cavalry as support, this is not a small number, and it requires all the princes to draw from their respective battalions, and each prince can send as many troops as he wants.
It's a question that requires some tangle, so this cavalry has just been assembled now.
However, at this time, the latest news about Guan Ning's cavalry came back, and everyone seemed to be still immersed in the joy of Yuan Chonghuan defeating the first wave of ambush.
However, as one of the strongest military strategists in the world today, Han Xin still noticed something was wrong even though he was not at the scene.
"This man Yuan Chonghuan may be eager to achieve great results, but he has put the army in crisis!" Han Xin cursed angrily in front of Yuan Chonghuan in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the general Yuan Shao has always relied on turned out to be such a thing.
However, Han Xin didn't think about it seriously. If another person was placed in Yuan Chonghuan's position, how many people could withstand the temptation of killing Li Xiang? How many people could stand it?
Can you see the danger behind this temptation?
What's more, if Han Xin takes his own level as a benchmark, how many people in this world can be called a famous general?
"It's broken!" Some Han Xin reminded him, and counselors like Cui Hao and Yuan Xi also began to notice something was wrong.
These are one of the smartest people in the world. Even if it is just a little reminder, they should have thought of things that they could not have thought of before.
Yuan Xi hurriedly explained to Yuan Shao: "My lord, Li Zifeng is not an ordinary person and is good at using strategies. How can he use ordinary ambush tactics? This wave of ambush should be just a bait, just to lure Chonghuan into a trap.
, and his real killer move lies behind. The matter is urgent, and it may still be too late to send reinforcements at this time!"
"General Guan, lead the army and set off immediately. We must rescue all the generals!" Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, this anxiousness even had a hint of an order.
There is no reason why Yuan Shao should not be anxious. The Guan Ning Cavalry is one of Yuan Shao's most elite troops. If they are really lost in this battle, Yuan Shao will probably cry.
