Yuan's army captured Luoyang, Cao Hong and Xu Huang fled and lost, Liu Ye was captured alive, and the news was soon transmitted to the support army in the rear through the detectives. Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren's support troops were almost on the way to the Luoyang border. After learning the news, they immediately gathered the army, stationed on the spot, and discussed offensive strategies!

Inside the tent of Cao Jun!

"Alas~~!" Xiahou Dun sighed heavily, and looked into the distance outside the tent with infinite sorrow, full of endless melancholy.

"I lost another time! This time, even Luoyang was lost. Luoyang is a frontier gateway connecting the northwest and the east prefectures. Now it is occupied by Yuan Shang. The Central Earth Plain is a plain for Yuan Jun. The cavalry under Yuan Shang is already powerful, so what should we do if we do? ......... On the Xu Du side, does Xun Yu and the others have any news?"

Cao Ren's expression was also extremely bad, and he said softly: "On the other side of Xu Du, there was an envoy coming to pass the order yesterday, saying that the lord and Xun Lingjun had the order. If Yuan Shang advanced eastward, he would just fight him head-on, advance if he could fight, and retreat if he could not defeat him. The army and horses were allowed to be dispatched by us. There was only one thing: the generals were not allowed to reinforce any local prefectures and counties, nor were the troops of the local prefectures and counties arbitrarily gathered to our central army. That's all."

"Bang!" Xiahou Dun slapped the table heavily and said angrily: "Isn't this a nonsense? Let our army cut off all the troops and horses in local prefectures and counties. Isn't this an opportunity for Yuan Shangke to take advantage of? How many soldiers can there be in the local prefectures and counties? Without our dispatch, they would be like a piece of loose sand. Wouldn't it be that Yuan Shang eroded them all!"

Cao Ren smiled bitterly and shook his head calmly and said, "Everyone understands the truth, but he doesn't understand what the lord and Xun Yu and the others think... The lord is young, he is high-ranking, and he is a literati on weekdays. He must have no experience in this regard. The reason why he issued such an edict must be to obey the advice of Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu... This is understandable, but Yuan Rang, I don't understand. Xun Yu and the others are all old people, and their wisdom is far better than you and me. How could he have thought of such a foolish edict?"

Xiahou Dun shook his head and said, "Who knows... The urgent thing to delay is to first meet Cao Zhang, Cao Hong, Xu Huang and others, then gather the troops and confront Yuan Shang... Since those old guys in Xu Du don't care, let's solve it ourselves!"

************************

Xu Du, Guo Jia’s mansion.

"Nine hundred steps, nine hundred and one steps, nine hundred and two steps..." Jia Xu looked at Guo Jia who was constantly wandering in the yard, and sat there counting in a mess.

Guo Jia's face was pale, but it was obviously much better than when he was seriously ill. At this moment, he was struggling to support his body and walking in the courtyard. While sitting there with contempt, Jia Xu, who was counting his steps slowly, said dissatisfiedly: "You old guy, don't deal with serious matters, stay here every day to stare at me and see what are you doing?"

Jia Xu smiled slightly and said unconsciously: "The most urgent thing is for me. Watching your illness recover day by day is the real big thing for us Cao, and other things. Haha, it doesn't matter."

Guo Jia couldn't help but sneer heavily when he heard this. On the other side of him, an elder with a white beard stared at Guo Jia's body and face carefully. After looking for a long time, he nodded and smiled: "Guo Jijiu's condition is getting better day by day. I see it and am happy in my heart. Although your disease has not been cured at present, I am glad that I have no worries about life. As long as it is slightly consolidated and supplemented with decoction, there will be a day of recovery in the future."

Guo Jia turned around and bowed deeply to the old man who was talking, saying, "Zhang Yisheng came from Jingnan from all over the world to heal Guo. If it weren't for Zhang Yisheng's actions, Guo said he had to die. How could he have the opportunity to meet the light of heaven again? He will never forget his life-saving grace! He also asked Zhang Yisheng to accept my worship."

This old man was no other person. He was sent by Liu Bei to treat Guo Jia by Xu Du, the medical saint Zhang Ji, who was also Zhang Zhongjing.

Seeing that Guo Jia was so polite, Zhang Zhongjing hurriedly raised his hand and smiled and said, "It is what my medical practitioners should do. I heard that Hua Tuo saved Deng Chang's life in Yecheng, and since then, he knows it all for people in Hebei. I, Zhang Ji, saved Guo Jiji, of Cao's family today, and I am afraid that he will not be inferior to him, so I am worthy of it."

Zhang Ji immediately pointed out some tricks for Guo Jia's recovery and the things he should pay attention to, and then said goodbye and left, only explaining that he would come to watch Guo Jia's illness and movements again tomorrow.

After Zhang Ji left, there were only Jia Xu and Guo Jia in the courtyard.

Jia Xu touched the beard on his chin, looked at Guo Jia carefully, nodded and said, "From your recovery, I can be said to be getting better day by day. I'll feel relieved. I'm afraid that if I go to the battlefield in the future and let Yuan Shang see it, I'm afraid that the kid's big teeth will be scared away."

Guo Jia was tired from walking, and sat on a rock in the courtyard with panting, raised his eyes and glared at Jia Xu, and said, "Don't talk about those useless things for now. I just ask you, what is the situation in the battle ahead?"

Jia Xu said lightly: "What else can I do if Luoyang is lost?"

Guo Jia said lightly: "Luoyang is lost, Liu Bei did not take action?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Of course I won't take action. With Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's current nature, although they are united with us on the surface, but if we don't see our army suffer enough losses, how could they take action easily? You and I understand the principle that the fisherman will benefit from the snipe and clam fight. If it were you and I were in the place, would you take action at this time? Will I take action?"

Guo Jia sighed and said, "Yes, unless we can use the fastest speed to make Yuan Shang stretch the front line in Zhongzhou, we can make Liu Bei take action quickly, but in that case, our army's losses will be relatively increased."

Jia Xu said calmly, "From the beginning of this battle, Liu Bei was destined to be the final winner. This is something you and I have already decided. What's strange about it, but it's annoying."

Guo Jia sniffed gently and sighed: "Isn't this unwilling to accept it?"

Jia Xu said lightly: "Is there any way to be unwilling to accept it? You know a strange secret at least, and Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren don't know the situation at all. I'm afraid that they have scolded us hundreds of times in their hearts now."

Guo Jia smiled bitterly, without answering, and suddenly said, "How is Zhang Liao's side? But he was ordered to go east to support him."

Jia Xu nodded and said, "The high-ranking officials stationed troops in the seaside of Qingzhou. There was no movement. Xun Lingjun and I discussed that the troops Zhang Liao and Xiahou Shang were already dispatched to the east to help Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and others. I believe they will be able to get along soon."

************************

After Yuan Shang's army occupied Luoyang, they immediately advanced eastward. Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren's troops would also join Cao Hong and Xu Huang and other people to station troops and extend the line. As time goes by, the two sides meet 300 miles east of Luoyang, arrange troops, wait for the battle at any time.

The two sides held the troops and horses, and after the three-way drums, Yuan Shang personally led the powerful generals of Yuan, including Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Wang Shuang, Ma Yan, Zhang Kai, Jiao Chu, Zhang Nan, Han Meng, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, Ma Dai, etc., and on the other side were Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xu Huang, Li Dian, Le Jin, Cao Xiu, Niu Jin and other military generals were arranged side by side.

Yuan Shang looked left and right, and suddenly laughed to the sky, and a trembling laughter broke out.

“Hahahahaha~~~!”

This burst of laughter came suddenly, which scared the generals around him to amazement. Look at me, I look at you, I don’t know what kind of epilepsy my lord suddenly made, and it makes such a laugh. Isn’t it reasonable?

Zhang He swallowed gently and whispered to Yuan Shang: "Master? Why did you suddenly laugh...you have eaten something bad for breakfast?"

Yuan Shang shook his head, raised his hand to point to the Cao lineup opposite, and said contentedly: "How many years have passed, how many years have passed, the Cao general lineup has always been better than our Hebei army in general! But now, one has risen and the other has become worse. Our army has added many new generals over the years, and the Cao family has lost many powerful generals who can fight... Today, the lineup of both sides is in this battle... I don't want to be happy anymore, it's obvious that we have the advantage... Thirty years Hedong and thirty years Hexi, hahaha, you say I don't want to be a bear today... Hahahahaha!"

Zhang He grinned when he heard this, and thought to himself, who is this person? This human nature is too villainous, right?

But it is obvious that Yuan Shang is the obvious kind of villain who is successful!

But when he saw him swaying the whip in his hand, pointing at the Xiahou Dun army formation opposite, and whispering loudly: "Who is the leader? Come out and talk to me!"

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Dun stepped forward with two steps and said, "I am the head coach Xiahou Dun, Yuan Shang, what do you have to say, but it's okay!"

Yuan Shang smiled and pointed at Xiahou Dun and said, "Don't you have always had many powerful generals in Cao's family? Today, Yuan is going to break your immortal myths and legends... There is not much nonsense! Come, fight one by one, compete with the general!"

Xiahou Dun's one-eyed eyes couldn't help but frowned and said, "Yuan Shang. Why do you say this? It's okay to compete with generals, but I don't know how you want to compete with each other?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Yuan Shang suddenly burst out with a bad laugh, which made all the generals on both sides tremble. However, Yuan Shang raised his hand and pointed the generals behind him fiercely, and said loudly: "Today we will fight against the generals... Our Yuan army is rich and powerful, with good quality and large quantity. Buy one free one free. You can send a general. We not only send one after another, but also stand next to us as a cheerleader. How about it? Is it enough to give in to you?"

Yuan Jun generals couldn't help but take a breath of cold air from behind. Zhang He coughed and hurriedly said, "Lord, you can't joke around this. Are you not making any noise?"
