The Three Kingdoms were fighting for supremacy, but I was busy with GDPThe Three Kingdoms were fight

Chapter 560

Yuan Tan quickly took on the responsibility of staying behind.

As his orders were issued continuously, the panic that had gradually spread in the city was gradually suppressed.

Twenty thousand cavalry, no siege equipment.

For Yecheng, which has a high wall, it is not a big threat.

As long as they don't go out to fight the other side, there will be no problem.

After the people in the city got the exact news, they gradually calmed down.

Seeing Yuan Tan's performance, the generals and civil officials silently gave him points in their hearts.

Originally, the heir that Yuan Shao had set his sights on was not this eldest son.

But the favorite youngest son.

But in this incident, a group of generals and civil officials saw Yuan Tan's ability.

Yuan Tan also took advantage of this incident to do his best.

He knew how rare this opportunity was.

He must seize it tightly and dare not slack off at all.

The entire city continued to run smoothly under his orders.

"Report!"

Another general rushed into the hall of the official temple.

Yuan Tan looked up from a pile of documents, "What's the matter?"

With the previous enemy situation, he has become calm now.

"Enemy troops are coming from the southeast!" The general immediately reported.

Yuan Tan frowned, "Why are there still enemy troops?"

"How many?"

He asked immediately.

"..." The general was silent for a while, and replied in front of other officials in the hall of the official temple: "It is estimated that there are 40,000 to 50,000 people."

"What?!" Yuan Tan could no longer keep calm.

The brush in his hand fell on the table.

He was not surprised yet, the general said again: "Moreover, the army coming from the southeast is carrying ladders."

"Hiss!"

In the hall, a sound of gasps rang out.

Whether it was the generals or the civil officials, they were all frightened by the news.

"Could it be that they are Tang Hai's troops, just like the cavalry in the northwest?"

Someone whispered in the hall.

"You're such a jinx!"

Someone scolded him as soon as he finished speaking.

Yuan Tan was unsure, so he quickly ordered, "Investigate again and report back!"

"Try to get specific information about the army in the southeast."

However, before the generals left after receiving the order, another military officer returned.

"The army coming from the southeast is under the banner of Tanghai!"

As soon as the words came out, there were exclamations in the quiet hall again.

The officials of Jizhou couldn't figure out why there were Tanghai's troops everywhere?

It felt like it wasn't Jizhou's 200,000 troops who were besieging Tanghai with various foreign tribes.

Rather, they were being counter-surrounded by Tanghai's army.

That feeling made the officials of Jizhou extremely uncomfortable.

In an instant, they fell from the sky to the ground.

Thoughts flashed through Yuan Tan's mind.

His eyes were firm, and he immediately ordered: "Mobilize the whole city!"

"All men are mobilized."

"Assemble immediately and distribute weapons."

"Prepare to help defend the city."

"In addition!"

"Bring my weapons and armor."

"Our army must hold on in this battle."

"Since Tang Hai can send troops from both sides, he must have been prepared."

"But it's just what we want!"

"Youzhou and Tanghai City must be extremely empty."

"This is the best opportunity for Jizhou."

"As long as we hold on for a while, Tanghai will be breached."

"The rest of the army will fall without a fight."

"Pass the order down, I will go to the city in person and fight with the soldiers in this battle."

"Gather the strength of the whole city and must defend it!"

"Victory is just around the corner, I hope everyone will forge ahead!"

The resounding words echoed in the hall.

The young master's appearance made all the civil and military officials feel fortunate.

Yuan Shao made the right choice.

At least it was the right choice now.

Although the officials knew that Yuan Shao still favored the youngest son.

But Yuan Tan's performance was enough to convince the public.

Many officials began to have subtle changes in their hearts.

The whole Yecheng became nervous under Yuan Tan's orders.

The men were called up.

Although they were unwilling, they could not change it.

However, there are disadvantages and advantages.

The government gave money for the first time.

Although it was not much, it was finally cash.

Instead of empty promises.

The amount of money given was what was said, which surprised the men in Yecheng.

When did the military officers in the army not take advantage of others?

This completely subverted their ideas.

Even if they didn't take half, they had to take at least 10% or 20%.

But the money they got now was the same as the amount the government said.

The people couldn't believe it.

After some investigation, they found out that the person who issued the order was Yuan Tan, the young master of Jizhou.

The people suddenly developed a favorable impression of the young master who was temporarily in charge of Jizhou.

This matter was previously left to Yuan Shao.Nothing has changed.

But changes have been made in young officials.

It is really not easy.

Money and food are distributed in the city.

After a full meal, the men who were temporarily recruited finally had some morale.

The city also settled down.

Yuan Tan put on armor and held a sword, and personally went to the city wall to observe the enemy situation.

The enemy troops from Tanghai in the southeast have arrived outside the city.

They began to set up camp.

"Sure enough."

Yuan Tan looked into the distance with a gleaming look.

He found that the cavalry in the northwest of the city sent people to join the southeast army.

The cheers outside the city made Yuan Tan look sideways.

It also puzzled him.

Why do these people seem to have not been seen for a long time?

It shouldn't be so exciting to take a detour from Tanghai to Yecheng, right?

Yuan Tan on the city wall had not figured it out yet, and another military officer came.

"Report! Young Master!"

"Enemy troops were spotted in the northeast of the city."

"It's still the Tanghai flag."

"It says something like Tanghai...Navy...Marine Corps."

The military attaché said the name he had never heard of.

"Marine Corps?" Yuan Tan frowned.

"How many troops does Tanghai have?"

"How could they send so many people?"

"But since they came from the sea, there shouldn't be many."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the military attaché's face was not right.

Yuan Tan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked: "How many enemy troops are there in the northeast?"

"It's estimated to be about 20,000 to 30,000!" The military attaché answered quickly.

Yuan Tan's eyes widened instantly.

About 100,000 enemy troops in three directions!

After the encirclement, I'm afraid they will surround the entire Yecheng.

The enemy situation was far beyond his imagination.

He originally thought that at most, it was just a few tens of thousands of troops coming to put pressure on Yecheng.

The enemy troops in the southeast were beyond their expectations.

And there were actually enemy troops in the northeast?

Coming from the direction of the sea, this was beyond his expectation.

Under the leadership of the military officer, he rushed to the northeastern city wall.

Standing on the city wall and looking at it, it would not matter if he did not look, but once he looked, his heart trembled even more.

The equipment of this army was obviously much better than the other two.

The neat and bright armor reflected a dazzling light under the sunlight.

The armor worn by ordinary soldiers was much better than his.

This made Yuan Tan feel a huge chill in his heart.

Tang Hai's strength was beyond their imagination!

The defense of Yecheng must be extremely difficult.

Relying only on the 10,000 soldiers left in the city and the temporary conscription of civilians.

Resisting such elite troops is really a fantasy!
