After hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Ning also felt that there was something wrong, so he immediately asked the messenger to inform him, calling Zhao Yun, Hao Zhao, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun to be cautious and ready for battle at any time to prevent Yuan Shao's army from leaving the city to counterattack; and asked Dian Wei to gather the remaining 20,000 Feixiong troops on standby and prepare for the battle.

As soon as Lu Ning's order was conveyed, Dian Wei's army was ready, Yuan Shao in the city really took action. First, Jiang Yiqu led 30,000 troops out of the west gate to Xu Huang, and Gao Shun's army came out. Gao Shun immediately asked 10,000 soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to use the crossbows in their hands to shoot the Yuan Shao army out of the city. Then the Brutal Bear Army moved to the side and retreated to give way. Xu Huang led 10,000 soldiers of the Flying Bear Army to charge Jiang Yiqu's army.

Lu Su looked at it and said, "Lord Ximen is a feint attack. Gao Shun and Xu Huang's 20,000 troops can eat Jiang Yiqu's 30,000 troops. Yuan Shao's main attack should be at the North City Gate."

Before Lu Su finished speaking, the north city gate opened. Yan Liang led a 50,000 army to kill and launched an attack on Hao Zhao's 10,000 bears. After Hao Zhao received the order, he had already been mentally prepared. Without thinking, he ordered his soldiers to shoot with crossbow arrows, and first disrupted and dispersed the formation of Yan Liang's army, which would be beneficial to Zhao Yunfei's beating army.

After the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army under Hao Zhao shot out more than 100,000 arrows, thousands of Yan Liang's 50,000 army fell down, and the entire army was in chaos, and the soldiers complained. Although the army was still rushing forward, the formation was no longer complete, and there was slackness and scattering. Hao Zhao immediately asked the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to give up the passage. Zhao Yun immediately led the 10,000 flying bear army to collided with Yan Liang's army.

Zhao Yun led the army to crash into it, and Hao Zhao immediately led the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to follow up and suffocate Yan Liang's army. At this time, Yuan Shao, who was standing on the city wall, felt something was wrong. The 50,000 army was about to collapse under the impact of Zhao Yun's army. He knew that Ju Su was really good and should dispatch 100,000 troops at one time, so that the military formation would not be easily destroyed.

Yuan Shao couldn't wait and immediately ordered another 50,000 prepared army to attack. Seeing that Yuan Shao had made such a big bet, Lu Ning knew that he had only 50,000 troops in Yecheng, so he would not be able to dispatch it easily. He immediately asked the messenger to order Dian Wei to let Dian Wei's 20,000 flying bear army attack Yuan Shao's army.

Yuan Shao's two waves of army surrounded Zhao Yun's 10,000 flying bear army. Hao Zhao led 10,000 wild bear army to kill Zhao Yun's army desperately, hoping to join Zhao Yun's army, so that Zhao Yun's army would be less pressure and its mobility could be exerted. Although Zhao Yun's 10,000 flying bear army was besieged, under the leadership of Zhao Yun, it was like a giant dragon, rushing around in Yuan Shao's army, wherever he went, and blood was gushing wildly. Zhao Yun had a silver spear in his right hand and a sword in his left hand. He opened and closed his hands, attacked left and right, and had no creatures, and kept harvesting the lives of Yuan Shao's soldiers. Under the influence of Zhao Yun, his soldiers also had a sharp increase in killing spirit, and kept chopping and chopping with a sabre. Yuan Shao's soldiers' heads fell to the ground with the waves of the sabre.

Hao Zhao ordered the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to use the Little Six Flower Formation to kill Yuan Shao's army like snowballs. The soldiers were in groups of six, including two shield soldiers, two spear soldiers, and two crossbow soldiers. They cooperated with each other and coordinated their combat effectiveness. Their combat effectiveness was no worse than that of the Flying Bear Army soldiers. If they encountered strong generals, they would turn the six soldiers into twelve soldiers to form a formation, which would be a disaster for the enemy. The soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army were like a huge magnet, constantly sucking the enemy soldiers and killing them in time. They rolled and attacked, and cooperated tacitly, and were unstoppable.

The earth shook strongly again. Dian Wei led 20,000 flying bears troops to crash into Yuan Shao's army like a pillar. The war horses were galloping at high speed. The spear in the hands of the soldiers in front pierced into Yuan Shao's chest. Some spears penetrated through the chests of two and three Yuan Shao's soldiers in a row. The soldiers under Yuan Shao were hit by the fast-moving war horses. The soldiers under Yuan Shao cried and cursed, and their hearts were broken. Faced with such a powerful iron cavalry, it was death.

Dian Wei's army quickly smashed Yuan Shao's army into pieces and successfully joined Zhao Yun's army. Now Zhao Yun's soldiers were even more motivated. Yuan Shao's 100,000 army was only a little over 60,000 in a blink of an eye, and the rest were ascended to heaven. The army was extremely chaotic and soldiers were running around. Yuan Shao was upset on the city wall. Seeing that his army was about to be wiped out, Guo Tu next to him said: "Lord, hurry up and withdraw the troops. The 30,000 army led by Jiang Yiqu at the Xicheng Gate is basically unable to save it. If Yan Liang's 100,000 army will be damaged, then our army will be seriously insufficient, and the consequences will be very serious."

Yuan Shao ordered the roar to withdraw his troops while angrily saying: "Yan Liang's 100,000 troops are only tens of thousands of troops now, and there are probably not many people who can return to the city. Lu Ning's army has basically not suffered much damage. This battle is not worth the cost."

When Yan Liang heard the sound of withdrawing troops and returning to the city, he immediately fled back. He knew that if he had escaped late, he would probably not be able to go back. Seeing that the main generals were running away, why didn't he run away quickly? Yuan Shao became more and more angry when he looked at the city wall. His withdrawal quotation became the trumpet of his army's death.

When Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and Hao Zhao saw that the enemy soldiers were about to escape, they could escape comfortably. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei immediately encircled and annihilated Yuan Shao's soldiers, and the storm of the vicious army handed over to Hao Zhao to deal with them. Zhao Yun and Dian Wei led the army to chase Yuan Shao's army, who had fled to the city gate. Yan Lianggang ran into the city wall. Yuan Shao's wall immediately ordered the city gate to close. If it was not closed, the city gate would be captured by Zhao Yun and Dian Wei. If that were the case, Yecheng would be completely finished. Yuan Shao's soldiers saw that the city gate was closed and the suspension bridge was raised, and knew that they could not escape back. There was no way, so they could only kneel down and surrender. Then, the soldiers outside the city wall surrendered collectively.

Yuan Shao, who was standing on the city wall, was so angry that he couldn't even speak. He sat on the ground, his eyes were straight, and he was as stupid as a wooden chicken. His subordinates Guo Tu, Feng Ji and others quickly helped him up, found a stretcher, carried Yuan Shao home, and immediately asked the doctor to come to help Yuan Shao see a doctor.

At this time, the battle situation at Ximen was basically over. The 30,000 infantry led by Jiang Yiqu, and the soldiers were not trained enough, the quality of the soldiers were low and the equipment was extremely poor. How could they deal with the 10,000 Yuanxiong Army led by Gao Shun and the 10,000 Feixiong Army led by Xu Huang? After Jiang Yiqu was killed by Xu Huang with a battle axe, his soldiers also embarked on the road of surrender. Xu Huang handed over the cleaning of the battlefield to Gao Shun's Fengxiong Army, and he led the Feixiong Army to the north gate to support Zhao Yun and the others. However, when Xu Huang arrived, the battle at the north gate also entered the final stage, and Yuan Shao's soldiers also knelt down and surrendered, which made Xu Huang very unhappy and did not feel satisfied.

The battle was over and the battlefield was cleaned up. Lu Ning's army paid the price of more than 4,000 soldiers, killed nearly 60,000 Yuan Shao's soldiers and captured more than 50,000. It was estimated that less than 10,000 people who fled into the city. The remaining thousands should have fled to other places.

That night, Lu Ning's army held a banquet to celebrate the achievements of the soldiers. Of course, in front of the battle, the wine could not be drunk, and even Lu Ning could not be drunk, so they could only use tea instead. The soldiers ate it very much, peeled the dead war horses, took off the horse meat, and put them into their stomachs by barbecue.

The next day, Lu Ning's army did not attack the city. They fought for one day yesterday. Today, they asked the soldiers to rest and sent the soldiers to escort the prisoners back to Jinyang and handed them over to Gu Yong and others for arrangements. The prisoners must have to work as a coolie for several years. This is a punishment for them. Whoever asked them to join Yuan Shao's army can only blame them for their bad luck.

In Ye City, in Yuan Shao's official residence, Yuan Shao's face looked very ugly, and his civil and military officials also looked heavy. They all knew that Yuan Shao was going to get angry and that someone would be unlucky at the same time. This was a habit. Every time the battle failed, someone would be a scapegoat. After Guo Tu looked at Yuan Shao's face, he knew that it was important to take the initiative to shirk responsibility, otherwise he would be involved. "Lord, this battle was indeed a mistake. I opposed it at that time, but I didn't oppose it very firmly. If I had known this, I should have fiercely dissuaded the battle from the city."

When Feng Ji heard this, wasn’t you telling the lord that it was Ju Su’s idea? If you say this, Ju Su would be miserable. Since that’s the case, I will also add to the fire. “Lord, there is indeed something wrong with the decision to go out of the city to fight. I suggested at that time whether to send a small number of soldiers out of the city to try the battle first, so that the loss would not hurt the bones. Now, the 130,000 army has only returned less than 10,000 people. There are only nearly 60,000 soldiers in the city, and it will be even more difficult to defend the city next."

When Ju Su heard this, you two bastards, didn’t you push all the blame on me? The idea was that I made a good decision, but the boss himself made the decision. I have the final say whether to send troops or not. If you want to say that the responsibility should be the boss, I just made a random idea. I can’t just take responsibility for the loss of the army. Yuan Shao, who was above, spoke out, and only heard him say, “Ju Su, do you know the crime?”

Ju Su knew that it would be useless to say more. Anyway, he was a scapegoat. After hearing Yuan Shao's tone, Dong Zhao knew that Ju Su might be in danger of his life. If Yuan Shao said it, it would be difficult to save Ju Su's life. So he immediately said, "Lord, Zhengping is a little nonsense, but his sins are not very serious. I hope that the lord will spare him once for his loyalty."

After hearing this, Xun Chen also said, "Lord, Zhengping is a little wrong. Please give up the lord with slightest despair. This will help the lord to gain a good reputation as a wise man. In this way, more scholars will come to surrender to the lord in the future."

Chen Lin also said: "Lord, Zhengping is a famous scholar in Jizhou. Please give me a gentleman. For the scholars in Jizhou, I will admire you very much for your reputation as cherishing your scholars."

When Yuan Shao saw that everyone was pleading for Ju Su, he couldn't be killed immediately. "Catch Ju Su under the prison and wait until I defeated Lu Ning boy."

On the night when Ju Su was captured by Yuan Shao, Tian Chou and Guo Jia received information from the pigeons in Yecheng. Guo Jia immediately found Lu Ning and said, "Lord, Yuan Shao put all the responsibility for the loss of the army on Mr. Ju Su. Ju Su is indeed a talented person. If Zi Jing had not reminded him in time, then our army would have suffered a lot."

After reading the information, Lu Su said, "Mr. Ju Su also firmly opposed the tactic of adding fuel. This is right, but it was not adopted by Yuan Shao. Otherwise, our army would have suffered a little more losses. Yuan Shao was incompetent and did not shift the blame to Ju Su. Who is this?"

Lu Ning was thinking in his heart that this was Yuan Shao's usual style. Find a scapegoat to cover up his incompetence. Otherwise, how could Yuan Shao defeat Cao Cao in history? This also shows that Yuan Shao is really a person who deceives the world and steals reputation. "Fengxiao, tell Zitai that you must mobilize all your strength to ensure the safety of Jushu's life. I am worried that Yuan Shao would be angry. If someone advises him, Jushu will be beheaded and displayed to the public. It would be a pity for a talent like Jushu to die. Moreover, after we conquered Jizhou, people like Jushu are very important to us. With his words to Tian Feng, the hearts of the people and the hearts of scholars in Jizhou will be submissive to us, and things will be much easier to deal with."

Guo Jia said: "Okay, lord."
