All the generals spoke when they saw the Xiahou brothers, so they said nothing more.
Guo Jia shook his head and said: "At this time, because of the intervention of the Black Mountain Army, the strength of the coalition forces on Yuan Shao's side has exceeded ours."
"Facing the Black Mountain Army with a large number of troops, if we continue to fight like today's battle, I am afraid our army will suffer heavy losses. Even if we win, we will not be able to garrison troops in Jizhou and Youzhou."
"In this case, this battle will be in vain."
All the counselors deeply agreed with Guo Jia's words.
Zhao Yun on the side also nodded silently, feeling that what Guo Jia said made sense.
When Xiahou Dun heard this, he frowned and asked: "Then what should we do? Let's just continue to waste time with them?"
Guo Jia didn't speak when he heard this, he lowered his head and pondered the strategy.
Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Forget it, there's no rush for this battle. It's been going on for so long. Han Fu also came to Jizhou to drain the fire."
"If this drags on any longer, it will be Yuan Benchu who cannot hold on first, so let's fix things up in the past few days."
When everyone saw Cao Ang's decision, they had no objections.
At this time, Le Jin felt a little embarrassed and stood up.
He was sent by Yu Jin to ask for help.
"Major General, I have some military information that I would like to report."
As soon as Le Jin said this, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Cao Ang looked at Le Jin and asked loudly: "General Le, what happened to General Yu Jin?"
Le Jin nodded sheepishly and said, "Major General, Yuan Tan and his sergeants were blocked in Yangping City by General Yu Jin."
"Although Yuan Tan is temporarily blocked, he has a strong general under his command. Only by joining forces with General Xu Huang can we draw a draw."
"General Yu Jin is worried that if this continues, our army will suffer losses, so he asked the last general to come back and seek reinforcements."
When Cao Ang heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Why didn't he know that Yuan Shao had other generals with outstanding martial arts skills?
According to Cao Ang's understanding, the only people under Yuan Shao who could surpass Le Jin and Xu Huang in martial arts were Yan Liang, Wen Chou.
But Yan Liang, Wen Chou, both were in Wei County, and one of them was killed today. How could there be such a strong martial artist?
Cao Ang couldn't think of who the other party was, so he asked: "General Le, do you know who the other party is?"
"The surname is Zhang, the name is He, and the courtesy name is Junyi. He is one of the four pillars in Hebei Province that is as famous as Yan Liangwen Chou." Le Jin replied respectfully.
Cao Ang couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the word "He".
According to his understanding, Zhang He's martial arts should be on par with Xu Huanglejin's. Even if Zhang He has some advantages against Zhang He, it won't be such a big advantage.
Two fight one, and you almost didn’t fight?
"Zhang He?" Cao Ang muttered with a frown.
Xiahou Dun, who was on the side, took the opportunity to say: "Young General, let the last general go."
Cao Ang frowned when he heard this. He knew that although Xiahou Dun's martial arts skills were higher than those of Zhang He, he was definitely not the opponent of Xu Hu Lejin and Xu Hu Lejin.
So Cao Ang shook his head and said: "Uncle Yuan Rang, do you think you are sure that you can get an advantage with the joint efforts of General Le Jin and General Xu Huang?"
"This..." Xiahou Dun was speechless for a moment, because he knew in his heart that he could definitely defeat one of these two people in a one-on-one fight within 150 rounds.
But if two people join forces, he will lose in about fifty rounds.
Now that Cao Ang was asking this question, he knew in his heart that he would definitely lose to the two of them joining forces, but because of his face, he couldn't say these words well.
Although Xiahou Dun didn't say anything, everyone had worked together for so long and had a certain understanding of his strength, so they wouldn't laugh at him if Xiahou Dun didn't say anything.
Cao Ang said nothing more to Xiahou Dun, but looked at Zhao Yun: "Zilong, then send you and General Yue Jin back to support General Yu Jin."
"Yes, Major General." Zhao Yun nodded in agreement.
No one had any objection to Cao Ang's arrangement.
After all, Zhao Yun's martial arts skills are obvious to all, so letting him support Yu Jin is the best choice.
After arranging all matters, cleaning the battlefield, bringing back the bodies of the fallen soldiers and burning them according to their names, Cao Jun began to make repairs.
Of course, Cao Ang can fix it, but Yuan Shao cannot make it easy for him.
Early the next morning, Xiahou Dun took Huang Zhong to the gate of Wei County to provoke.
Because of yesterday's fright, Yuan Shao was still resting at this time.
Gongsun Zan led his men and climbed the city wall.
Seeing Xiahou Dun's arrogant look, Gongsun Zan was extremely angry, but he did not dare to fight. He could only curse fiercely: "This Xiahou Dun is really bullying others!"
After he finished scolding, Gongsun Zan looked at Wen Chou aside.
Yesterday's battle, although Wen Chou was defeated, he was not injured. However, Yan Liang, who was also defeated, was not so lucky. Zhao Yun sealed his throat with a sword and chopped off his head.
Gongsun Zan looked at Wen Chou and couldn't help but ask: "General Wen Chou, can you defeat Xiahou Dun in this city?"
Wen Chou looked at Xiahou Dun and then at Huang Zhong beside him, and suddenly felt a little bad.
However, Gongsun Zan had already asked the question, so he was naturally embarrassed to keep his mouth shut, so he opened his mouth and said, "If we were one-on-one with Xiahou Dun, I could beat him, but with Huang Zhong by his side, I..."
Wen Chou stopped here and did not continue. The meaning was self-evident.
Standing next to Wen Chou was Xu You, who had escorted the grain and fodder back last night.
After Xu You listened to Wen Chou's words, he smiled and said: "I heard that Xiahou Dun is stubborn and willful. If the general dares to go out of the city to fight, then he will definitely fight with the general alone if he uses words to stimulate Xiahou Dun at the beginning."
"If the general can successfully kill Xiahou Dun, I believe the lord will be very happy!"
Wen Wenxuan said that he couldn't help but think of Yuan Shao's eyes after his fiasco yesterday, and his nose was not a nose.
If you can kill Xiahou Dun, it will be a great achievement!
After all, Xiahou Dun is Cao Cao's brother and has a high status in Cao's army camp!
Thinking of this, Wen Chou was distracted and said, "Okay, then I'll go out of the city and meet Xiahou Dun for a while!"
After Wen Chou said this, he clasped his fists directly at Gongsun Zan and Xu You, then got off the city wall, ordered three thousand men and horses to leave the city.
When Huang Zhong saw Wen Chou coming, he thought that he had not killed the opponent yesterday, and how could he not let the opponent escape today, and he immediately became eager to try.
