When Ge Xiang was shocked, Liu Ye stepped forward intimately to hold his arm and smiled and said, "Boru, you and I haven't seen each other for more than ten years. This time, we will not talk about political affairs, but will only reminisce about old relationships and leave."

"Haha, just reminisce about the old feelings, just rekind about the old feelings."

The pavilion was not thinking, and his expression was tumultuous. He followed Liu Ye into the Cao army camp with all his steps.

Yecheng, Hebei, General Yuan Shao’s Mansion.

Yuan Xi hurried into the hall and said to Yuan Shao: "Father, we will give up the horse. Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Sun Jian's three-way coalition forces have already arrived at Shouchun City. Although the second uncle is unrighteous, his father and his brothers will fight each other. Should he send troops to attack Dongjun and force Cao Cao to withdraw his troops from Shouchun?"

"Oh." Yuan Shao sighed and shook his head, "The road goes against the road, which will lead to today's disaster. If you send troops to rescue your father, you may be criticized by the world."

"What the lord said is very true." Tian Feng agreed, "Weaver of the Han Dynasty is a serious crime to destroy the nine clans. At this time, he avoids suspicion and is afraid that he will not be able to send troops to rescue him? Ji thought that the lord should not only not send troops to rescue him, but also submit to the court and volunteered to send troops to Qingzhou to suppress the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in order to express his loyalty to the court."

"Oh." Yuan Shao sighed, "It's all that has to be like this now."

Shouchun, Jinluan Palace.

The elephant looked depressed and said to Yuan Shu: "Your Majesty, Cao's camp has accumulated food and grass, which is enough to maintain the cost of the coalition forces for several years. If you keep trapped, before the coalition forces' food is exhausted, the food will be cut off in Shouchun City."

"Ah?" Yuan Shu was shocked and said in a lost voice, "What should I do?"

"Your Majesty, there is no other way to break through the siege. You will be more dangerous if you stay in Shouchun City for one more day." Jin Shang said, "Fortunately, there are still General Liu Xun in Lujiang. If Your Majesty can successfully break through the siege and be blessed with Lujiang, the army will still have the strength to fight."

Yuan Shu sighed and said helplessly: "Since that's the case, then arrange a breakout."

"I obey the order." Jin Shang bowed and asked again, "I will arrange the army to break through the Ximen."

"Ximen?" Yuan Shu's face changed and he said in a deep voice, "No, never break through from Ximen!"

Jin Shang was puzzled and said, "Why is this?"

Yuan Shu frowned and said, "If the army breaks through the West Gate, wouldn't it be clear that we would tell Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Sun Jian that I would go to Lujiang? What if Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Sun Jian and other senior soldiers lie on the road I must pass to intercept the Lujiang River?"

Jin Shang said: "I am ignorant, please let Your Majesty make it clear."

Yuan Shu pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "In this way, 10,000 troops were left to continue to defend, and the remaining 40,000 troops broke through the North Gate. After breaking through the Cao army camp, the troops were divided into two groups. One was led by his Aiqing to Nanyang to attract the attention of the coalition forces. I personally led another army to Lujiang. In this way, I could get rid of the interception of the three bandits."

Outside Shouchun City, Cao Cao's central army tent.

Xun You smiled and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, Yuan Shu is probably already arranging a breakthrough. The only question now is, which direction would Yuan Shu choose to break through?"

Cheng Yu said: "If Yuan Shu breaks through, there is only one place to go, and that is Lujiang."

Cao Ren said: "Lujiang is in the southwest of Shouchun. So, would Yuan Shu choose to break through from the west gate or the south gate?"

Cao Cao and Guo Jia looked at each other and shook their heads and said, "No, based on their understanding of Yuan Highway, this man will definitely break through the North Gate, and then divide his troops into two groups. One of them will flee to Runan, and take the stance of being desperate Nanyang, and the other will stop and sneak towards Lujiang."

"If Yuan Shu concentrated all his troops to break through Lujiang, our army might not be able to stop him, but if the troops were divided into two groups, the result would be completely different." Guo Jia smiled casually and walked to the middle of the tent and hung the military topographic map on the screen and said to Cao Cao and the generals: "Our army can set up an ambush here, and one blow will work."

Cao Cao said loudly: "Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Cao Chun, where is the Tibetan tyrant?"

Cao Renwu generals flashed out of the line, stood side by side in front of Cao Cao, and said sternly: "The last general is here."

Cao Cao said: "Each of them leads 3,000 elite troops to set up an ambush to Heifeng Valley. When Yuan's rebels enter the canyon, the ambush troops will come out together to intercept and fight. Remember, you must not miss any one!"

"Abide by the order!"

Cao Renwu took the order and then turned around and left quickly.

"Chang Yun." Cao Cao finally turned his eyes to Guan Yu and said in a harmonious voice, "After Yuan Ni led his army to leave Shouchun, the morale of the defenders in the city will be depressed and their soldiers have no fighting spirit. At this time, Chang Yun can concentrate his troops to attack Ximen, and must attack Shouchun City before Lu Bu and Sun Jian."
