The reason why Han Xin did this was of course not to fight Yuan Shao. After all, Qin Hao's threat was already close at hand. If the internal fight continued, Qin Hao would only be advantaged in the end.
Of course Yuan Shao also understood this, so Han Fu did this deliberately to show his attitude that he would rather be in pieces than in ruins, and wanted to force Yuan Shao to retreat.
Yuan Shao learned that Han Xin not only refused to surrender, but also directly inherited Han Fu's position with the support of the generals. He was so angry that he prepared to cut Han Fu alive. However, under the repeated persuasion of Tian Feng, Xu You and other officials
, Yuan Shao then gave up his plan to kill Han Fu.
When Han Fu learned that his son had vowed not to surrender, but that Yuan Shao was planning to kill him, he was so frightened that he fainted. When he woke up, he felt regretful. Why did he believe the words of those sycophants and surrender to Kaicheng in such a confused way?
So much so that now life and death are all in the hands of others, and even his son Han Xin is alienated from him. Han Fu is completely no longer a human being inside and out.
Han Fu regretted it very much now, but it was already too late. From the moment he surrendered at Kaicheng, his life no longer belonged to him.
As for Yuan Shao, although he failed to force Han Xin to surrender this time, he captured Yecheng, occupied most of Wei County, and also recruited tens of thousands of Korean troops. It can be said that he took advantage of everything, and naturally he was not willing to stop like this.
However, if troops are sent forcibly, Han Xin is obviously not that easy to offend. If it is just a fight that will hurt both sides, Qin Hao will eventually get the advantage.
At this point, Yuan Shao also fell into a dilemma, but in the end, driven by greed, Yuan Shao was ready to test Han Xin one last time to see if his determination to defeat the enemy was firm enough.
Yuan Shao sent Lian Po to lead an army of 150,000, and divided it into three groups to surround Han Xin. If Han Xin could not defend, he would retreat and stop fighting.
However, Yuan Shao never expected that Han Xin not only did not hold on, but instead took the initiative to abandon most of the city. After jumping out of the encirclement, he concentrated his forces to counterattack Ye City. This frightened Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao sent troops just to test Han Xin's reaction, but he didn't expect that Han Xin's reaction would be so extreme. This also showed that he would rather be broken than destroyed, and would rather fight Yuan Shao to the end with a city than poison.
Seeing that the situation continued to deteriorate, the situation in Jizhou would really get worse. Yuan Shao was completely cowed and immediately sent an envoy to negotiate peace with Han Xin.
Han Xin was relieved when he saw Yuan Shaoxian's peace talks. If he really irrationally fought with Yuan Shao, even if Qin Hao was not the one who benefited in the end, he would still benefit others.
Although Han Xin had some peace talks, looking at Yecheng, a city he had personally defended, he inevitably had the idea of taking it back for peace talks.
Han Xin naturally knew Yecheng very well. If he was given enough time, he might not be able to capture Yecheng, but he obviously didn't have that much time at this time.
Although Han Xin also knew that it would be difficult to recapture Yecheng, he still had to give it a try, so he used various methods to provoke the defenders in the city to go out to fight, and at the same time set up an ambush.
Finally, Yuan Hong couldn't bear to leave the city to fight. Under Han Xin's ambush, although Yuan's army that left the city was completely wiped out, they unexpectedly hit a nail on Yuan Hong's body.
Han Xin deliberately used Yuan Hong to force the defenders in the city to open the city gate, but he did not expect Yuan Hong to be so brave, forcing Han Xin to send General Nangong Changwan to fight.
What Han Xin didn't expect even more was that Nangong Changwan was no match for Yuan Hong, and he was even forced to be unable to escape.
At the critical moment, Wang Mang sent Ma Shanwei to help in the battle, and the two god-level warriors joined forces, and they finally tied with Yuan Hong.
The three of them fought for an hour, but Yecheng showed no intention of opening the door. Seeing this, Han Xin naturally knew that the other party would not send anyone out, so he asked Wang Mang to send Ju Wuba to help in the battle, hoping to completely get rid of Yuan Hong.
Serious trouble.
"General Ju, Han Xin has sent people to help in the battle again. General Yuan Hong is already very reluctant to fight against two. If there is another one, he will definitely lose."
"Yes, General Yuan Hong is a younger brother of the Yuan family. Once General Yuan Hong is defeated and dies in battle, my lord may not be able to explain it to him."
"General Ju, open the city gate quickly and rescue General Yuan Hong."
The generals kept chattering, and Ju Yi's expression became worse and worse, and finally he shouted angrily: "Shut up, everyone."
The general was so angry that all the generals did not dare to say anything, but Ju Yi said: "Don't you know that General Yuan Hong is in danger? But Han Xin is waiting for us to send people out. Now open the city gate to the enemy."
What should we do if we come in? What should we do if we lose Yecheng?"
All the generals were speechless when asked. Ju Yi didn't say much after seeing this, but his heart was full of gloom.
He was originally a surrendered general. If he refused to save him and watched Yuan Hong die in battle, how would he be able to survive in Yuan's army in the future?
"Damn Yuan Hong, I told you that it was Han Xin's trap, why don't you believe it?" Ju Yi couldn't help complaining in his heart.
When Ju Yi was loyal to Han Fu, he had served as Han Xin's deputy general and was familiar with Han Xin's military tactics. He could tell at a glance that this was Han Xin's plan.
But Yuan Hong was completely angered and refused to listen to Ju Yi's advice. He insisted on going out to fight. As a result, he was trapped by Han Xin and could not come back.
Ju Yi saw that Yuan Hong was quickly falling into a disadvantage, and he was also fighting between heaven and man in his heart, but in the end he figured it out and decided not to save Yuan Hong.
If he didn't save Yuan Hong, who was born in the Yuan family, Ju Yi would not be able to survive in Yuan's army at most. But if he saved Yuan Hong, but caused Ye City to be attacked, it would be a death penalty.
On the other side, Yuan Hong, whose basic strength is 107, can resist two gods of war, but with three, he is a little weak.
Under the siege of three god-level warriors, Yuan Hong quickly fell into a disadvantage. However, he was not willing to die and tried his best to create opportunities to delay time, even if it was just for a second.
Under such high pressure, although Yuan Hong's situation was extremely dangerous, like Ye Bianzhou in the waves, with the possibility of capsizing at any time, it also gave him an opportunity to integrate super magical skills.
[Ding dong, Yuan Hong’s skill ‘Stick God’ merges with ‘King Kong’ to become the new super skill ‘Ape God’.]
Yuan Hong, who obtained the super magical skill "Ape God" and became a new super general, received a huge improvement in his combat power. Although it was not enough for him to defeat the three war gods in a one-on-three battle, he could barely defeat them.
Defeat is still possible.
This unprecedented battle between Yuan Hong and the three war gods left Han Jun, Zhao Jun on the tower, and even Han Xin and Wang Mang stunned.
They all overestimated Yuan Hong as much as possible, but they didn't expect that he would break through before the battle, and that Yuan Hong would be so strong after the breakthrough.
"A strong general of this level simply destroys the rules of the battlefield."
Han Xin smiled bitterly and said, no matter how proficient he was in the art of war, he could not do anything against such a fierce general.
