At that moment, the potters issued an edict from the king of Wei, announcing that they would use all the troops of the Great Wei to resist the attack of the alliance of the five countries. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Moreover, the goal of the pottery merchant was not only to repel the attack of the Five Nations Alliance, but also to conquer the state and destroy Yuan Shang.

Since the previous capture of Jiqing Erzhou, the pottery merchant not only expanded his territory sharply, but also expanded the source of troops a lot, the newly recruited soldiers plus the surrendered Yuan soldiers, he can use the troops, has reached 200,000 people.

Among them, Le Yi and Xu Sheng led 20,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed on the front line of Xuzhou in Huainan to resist the attack of Sun Ce's Wu army.

The veteran Lian Po commanded an army of 10,000 and continued to garrison the front line of Wancheng in Nanyang to resist the Chu army commanded by Liu Biao, who had a weak attack power.

Liu Bei's Yan army in the north, because of the assistance of Zhuge Liang, plus more than half of them are cavalry, naturally cannot be underestimated, and must be guarded against with strong soldiers and good generals.

After careful consideration, the pottery merchant decided to use the combination of Huo Quai, Chen Ping and Gao Shun to command 20,000 troops and stationed on the front line of Zhongshan to resist the attack of the Yan army.

As for Yuan Shang's first journey, the pottery merchant will personally command the main army of 90,000 foot cavalry, go to the conquest, defeat Yuan Shang, and then capture the state in one fell swoop.

In the direction of Xudu, the pottery merchants left 10,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiao He sat in the town, on the one hand, to monitor the Son of Heaven, and on the other hand, as a reserve in the south, waiting for the opportunity to gallop to the south to help.

As the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty, Yecheng had to leave heavy troops, and the pottery merchants also left 10,000 elite soldiers, commanded by Queen Hua Mulan, and sat in the national capital.

Among the Five Nations Alliance, the last person to be feared by the pottery merchants was the Qin army of Cao Cao in the west.

Cao Cao was originally resourceful, not to mention, his strategists and fierce generals gathered, and even recovered the Ma clan, with Ma Chao and other world-class fierce generals, as well as more than 10,000 powerful Xiliang cavalry.

In terms of military strength alone, Cao Cao's strength has even surpassed the strength when he was sitting on the Central Plains.

The pottery merchants wanted to concentrate the main force to destroy Yuan Shang first, and for Cao Cao's Qin army, they could naturally only take a defensive position first.

If you want to defend Luoyang Hangu Pass, it is not enough to have enough soldiers and horses, but you must also have a good commander to be able to block the big responsibility.

The potter thought about it, and although there were many good generals under his command, he couldn't find a suitable candidate to take on this big task.

"Looks like it's time to summon a well-guarded commander......

The potter stared at the map and pondered the good general, and already had an idea in his heart, so he ordered a martial artist from the martial arts hall to come to the main hall to listen to the order.

"System elves, transfer all the heroic souls with a commander value of more than 90 to me." The potter Shang ordered with an idea.

This time, the potter did not choose to directly summon the commander's heroic soul worth 100.

In view of the fact that when the last time a hundred heroic souls were summoned, the random heroic soul Gou Jian was unexpectedly summoned on Liu Zhang's body, and unexpectedly created a strong man, so at this juncture when the five countries joined forces to defeat Wei, the potter decided not to summon the hundred heroic souls for the time being, in order to avoid unexpected variables.

"Tick...... The Commander has a Heroic Soul of 90 or more has been called out, please choose the host. ”

A string of names immediately appeared in the potter's mind, and now his charm value has reached more than 80, and the number of heroic souls that can be summoned has doubled, and it is really not easy to select a suitable candidate from a long list of dazzling lists.

The potter's gaze swept over the long list, and finally locked on a thunderous name:

Zhou Yafu.

A famous general during the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, 99 commanders, 73 military forces, 81 resourcefulness, 62 politics, and initial loyalty 21.

Zhou Yafu, a famous generation of famous generals, his deeds are known to everyone in ancient and modern times, how can the potter not remember it.

Zhou Yafu's most praised masterpiece is naturally to pacify the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu.

When Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was in power, the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu rebelled, menacing, and the world was shocked.

Zhou Yafu led the main force to Xingyang, in the face of the rebels with very sharp soldiers, Zhou Yafu wisely chose a deep ditch and a high base, and the wall did not fight, but led the light cavalry to cut off the rebels' food routes, and when the rebels could not bear the hunger and had no choice but to retreat, Zhou Yafu led the elite soldiers to pursue, broke the rebels, and finally quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in one fell swoop.

The commander value of 99 points is also in line with Zhou Yafu's military record.

However, Zhou Yafu was later appointed as the prime minister of the country, but he did not understand the way of officialdom, and finally lost the trust of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and was given to die, and the political value of 62 points is also worthy of the name.

Zhou Yafu can hold on to the onslaught of Wu Chu's hundreds of thousands of rebels, which shows that his ability to defend is extremely strong, and it is very suitable to choose him to guard the front line of Luoyang and resist Cao Cao.

Just as the potter was thinking, a middle-aged martial artist had entered the temple and bowed down at the potter's feet.

The pottery merchant pressed his palm on the top of Na Wusheng's head, and ordered with his mind without hesitation: "System elf, just call Zhou Yafu, immediately." ”

"Tick...... After deducting the benevolence points required for summoning, the host has 84 benevolence points, and begins to load the heroic soul, ten ...... Nine ......"

After a few moments, the countdown was over.

The potter took a light breath and said solemnly: "This king has been inspecting you for a long time, and knows that you have the talent to command, so I will give you the name Zhou Yafu today, and I hope you can live up to this name, and command elite troops for this king to resist strong enemies." ”

With that, the potter let go of his palm and flicked his hand to signal him to get up.

The kneeling body slowly stood up, and when he raised his head, his eyes were already showing calm and resoluteness, and he arched his hand to the potter: "Minister Zhou Yafu bows to King Wei." ”

This momentum is really extraordinary.

The pottery merchant nodded slightly and asked: "Zhou Yafu, Cao Cao led 50,000 Qin troops, and the soldiers are in front of my Hangu Pass, this king intends to appoint you as the commander to defend Luoyang for this king, and hold Hangu Pass, how many troops do you need?" ”

"Back to the King of Wei, Cao Cao is a deceitful person, the Qin army is extremely sharp, and the King of Wei wants his ministers to defend Luoyang, at least 20,000 elite soldiers must be given to his ministers." Zhou Yafu replied without hesitation.

The 20,000 elite soldiers were still within the range of the potter's acceptance, so he did not hesitate and happily agreed on the spot.

At this time, Zhou Yafu said: "Although Hangu Pass is a natural danger, but since ancient times, it is difficult to attack this pass from the east, and it is easy to attack this pass from the west, Cao Cao can not attack it for a long time, and he will make a strange strategy, so the minister only dares to guarantee to hold the Hangu Pass for three months, if the city is lost within three months, the minister will apologize for his guilt, and if the city falls after three months, please forgive the minister for his innocence." ”

This Zhou Yafu is really an upright person, he can carry as many burdens as he has as much ability, and he doesn't boast about Haikou.

Potters like this kind of real people.

At that moment, he laughed and said happily: "Very good, this king appreciates your straightforwardness, I will give you 20,000 soldiers and horses, as long as you can hold Hangu Pass for three months, you will complete the task, and then no matter what, this king will forgive you for your innocence." ”

Zhou Yafu received the order.

The plan has been decided, and the edicts of the Dao Dao flew to all parts of the Great Wei like snowflakes, and the generals and strategists who were in Yecheng immediately rushed to various places.

Three days later, Tao Shang personally led an army of 90,000 cavalry from Yecheng and went to Hanoi County in a mighty way.

……

Northwest of Hanoi County, Shangdang County, Huguan.

The battle flag of the word "Jin" flies inside and outside the city, and 10,000 Jin troops are stationed here.

Shangdang County is the southeast gateway of Bingzhou, Huguan is the gateway of Shangdang, Yuan Shang, who claimed to be the Duke of Jin, in response to Liu Bei's proposal to attack Wei of the Five Kingdoms, after Liu Bei, the king of Yan, raised troops, he also led 10,000 troops to join the state from Jinyang to Huguan, intending to go south from this pass, kill into Hanoi County, and threaten the Yecheng side from the west.

Yuan Shang stood on top of Guancheng, looking at the direction of Guannan for a long time, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and among his eyebrows, a sneer quietly appeared, and he muttered to himself: "Pottery merchant, I, Yuan Shang, am finally going to kill back, this Hebei is still my Yuan family's ...... after all."

Since he fled Yecheng to Bingzhou on the grounds of borrowing troops from the Xiongnu, Yuan Shang stationed troops in Jinyang, reused the strong and powerful clans of Bingzhou, supported the troops and respected themselves, and sat back and watched the success or failure.

He originally wanted to wait for the pottery merchant to re-enter Jizhou with a new force when Lao Yecheng was under the city, kill the pottery merchant without leaving a piece of armor, and force his father Yuan Shao to force the palace by the way, and become the lord of the four states of Hebei in advance.

He never expected that the pottery merchant would break through Yecheng in a few months, seize the entire territory of Jiqing Erzhou, and kill his father and second brother in a row, and in a blink of an eye, he would become a lone seedling of the Yuan family.

Yuan Shang, who was shocked and frightened, was restless day and night, afraid that the pottery merchants would not let him go, but he did not expect that the proposal initiated by Liu Bei to destroy Wei gave him hope again.

"Among the princes of the Five Roads, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are the strongest, and the pottery thief will definitely use heavy troops to deal with these two, I can take advantage of his negligence and take Hanoi by surprise, and then attack Yecheng from Hanoi, and then I can recover Jizhou in one fell swoop, Liu Bei, Liu Bei, you never dreamed that you would make a wedding dress for me Yuan Shang, hehe......"

When Yuan Shangzheng was smug in his thoughts, the strategist Feng Ji hurriedly went to Guancheng and arched his hand: "Duke Jin, there is an urgent report from Yecheng, the pottery thief has led an army of 90,000 from Yecheng to Hanoi County, and it seems that he is clearly coming at us. ”

Yuan Shang's body shook violently, and the smugness on his face instantly collapsed, replaced by shock.

"How is it possible, how could the pottery thief lead the main force to attack us? What about Cao Cao and Liu Bei, why didn't the pottery thief attack them? Yuan Shang exclaimed in surprise.

"This ......" Feng Ji made a bitter face and shook his head: "Ji is also puzzled." ”

Yuan Shang panicked.

He originally thought that the Tao Chamber of Commerce despised him and didn't take him seriously, so that he could take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

He never dreamed that the potter would look up to him so much, regard him as the number one enemy, and leave aside strong enemies like Liu Bei and Cao Cao, but lead an army of 90,000 to destroy him.

That's an army of 90,000.

At that time, with the strength of the Yuan family, he was not the opponent of the pottery merchants, and today he Yuan Shang alone with 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he is the opponent of the nine-fold army of the pottery merchants.

"Shu Chuan, Tian Yuanhao, came to discuss." Yuan Shang, who was panicked, shouted anxiously.

Among the strategists of the Hebei faction, the trial was left behind in Jinyang, and Feng Ji was out of line, and now Yuan Shang could only rely on Tian Feng's resourcefulness.

After a while, Tian Feng rushed to the city when he heard the inquiry, and Yuan Shang was busy attacking the main force of the potters, and told Tian Feng.

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are the enemies of the pottery thief, but why did the pottery thief leave those two alone, and he wanted to deal with his father, is he crazy?" Yuan Shang asked urgently.

Tian Feng pondered for a moment, his eyes flashed a little suddenly awakened, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, and sighed: "The pottery thief is so far-sighted, it's really amazing." ”

"Yuan Hao, what's going on?" Yuan Shang became more and more confused and asked.

Tian Feng called left and right to bring the map, pointed to the map and said: "Duke of Jin, please see, although the strength of my Jin State is weak, but we are based on the annexation of the state, to the west can attack the attack, to the east can be cut Youzhou, once the pottery thief captures the state, it is equivalent to Liu Bei and Cao Cao, and at the same time hang a sharp sword." ”

After some analysis, Tian Feng sighed again: "It seems that the ambition of the pottery thief is extremely bold, he is not only satisfied with resisting the siege of the five countries, but also defending as an attack, taking our state and opening a breakthrough for him to sweep away Yan Qin and dominate the world." ”

As soon as he spoke, Yuan Shang suddenly realized, and even Feng Ji nodded again and again, before he realized.

"How should Bengong deal with it?" Yuan Shang's face was already uneasy.

"Only with the troops at hand can we stick to the road without fighting." Tian Feng sighed lightly, "As long as we can hold on and hold on until the rest of the four countries have a breakthrough, and the pottery thief has to retreat, there will be a glimmer of life." ”

Yuan Shang was silent, his fist slammed into the female wall, his face was gloomy as iron, and his eyebrows were unwilling.

He was unwilling to let go of this great opportunity, but he could only guard the danger, in case the rest of the four princes seized the opportunity, wouldn't he be able to get a piece of the pie at that time.

Just when Yuan Shang was at a loss and unwilling, a scout flew into the city and arched his hand: "Yu Jin Gong, we rode and robbed a team of chariots and horses in the south of Huguan, one of whom claimed to be Sima Yi of Hanoi, claiming to want to come to Huguan to see Jin Gong. ”
