Chapter 437: The Salt Capital City is broken
Among Xuzhou, the nearest is the salt capital, Yu Linwei soon arrived in the salt capital, although Chen Zhi lacks the ability to command, but there is still a Tai Shi Ci on the side.
Although Tai Shi Ci is not a general of Ma Zhan, Tai Shi Ci has rich experience in the battle.
With him following Chen Dao, it is enough to make up for Chen Zhi's lack of experience.
"General Taishi, look over there!" Chen Zhi pointed in one direction of Yandu and shouted at Tai Shi Ci.
Tai Shici saw that their luck today was really good, and they had just arrived in Yandu, and they immediately ran into the grain transportation team in Xuzhou over there.
"There are no escorts?" Tai Shici's face was happy at first, and then he frowned.
Because the teams of people transporting grain and grass over there only had a few people and auxiliary soldiers and horses transporting, but they had never seen any soldiers and horses escorted by the Xuzhou army.
"Is there an ambush among them?" Chen also reflected under his Tai Shi Ci's reminder.
"Ambush?" Tai Shi Ci was even more confused, they came to Xuzhou after a big circle, in order not to let Lao Cao find out, if the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou were ambushed in advance, then it means that the entire layout may be known by Lao Cao.
This is no small matter! Tai Shi Ci was thinking about whether to send someone to tell him first
"Let's send a team of people to spy first!" Tai Shi Ci suggested to Chen Zhi.
"Yes!" Chen Zhi also nodded, and soon a large army of 100 Yu Linwei left accelerated towards the grain transportation team of the Cao army over there.
The movement of the war horse running and banging on the ground is not small.
The grain transportation team of the Cao army also found the traces of this cavalry.
"Cavalry?" A general of the Cao Army, who was in charge of transporting grain and grass, was stunned for a moment, but they had just set off from the salt capital, and they had not yet left the border of the salt capital.
How did this salt ever appear cavalry?
"Could it be a tiger and leopard ride?" The current Xuzhou belongs to Lao Cao, so in the heart of the captain of this Cao army, only the tiger and leopard rider will have such movements.
"General, general, general!" The subordinates on the side saw that their eyes were good, raised their heads, and asked General Cao Jun, "Does the tiger and leopard ride a general surnamed Yuan?" ”
"Yuan?" He, an auxiliary lieutenant, how can he know the personnel of this tiger and leopard cavalry.
"Look at the banner of Yuan over there!"
The auxiliary lieutenant raised his head, and he could see it clearly, "This, this, this!" He began to stutter as well, "That's the military flag." You shit! ”
Generally, there will be three big flags in the army, one is the military flag, which is the national name of the country, such as Qi, Chuyan, Wei and Han, and at the end of the Han Dynasty, it became the surname of their respective princes, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu is Yuan, Liu Bei Liu Biao is Liu, Cao Cao is naturally Cao, and then there is a small flag under the military flag, which is called the Shuai Banner, or the General Flag. This is generally written with the surname of the main general. Or also write the official position. The Lord will generally stand there.
"Yuan Zi Military Banner!" This is Xuzhou, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses can't be here, that is another person left, Yuan Yao. In fact, whether it is Yuan Yao or Yuan Shao, the two of them are the enemies of Xuzhou.
"Yuan Yao's Huainan Army!" The auxiliary captain's mouth was full of bitterness.
How could this Yuan Yao's Huainan Army appear here.
"General, what do we do now!"
"What to do, run!" Saying this, the auxiliary lieutenant immediately turned his horse's head, and fled in the direction he came from without looking back. He could see clearly that it was a complete cavalry unit, numbering at least hundreds of people, if he still had the escorted soldiers and horses in his hands to resist, now relying on a group of villagers under his command? Farming may be a good hand, and fighting a war can only be said in two words, that is, hehe.
"The Huainan Army is here, run!" Seeing that their generals and schools had run away, the auxiliary soldiers on the side had no reason not to run, and they put down their belongings one by one, and they didn't want any ox carts and carriages, and they scattered like a group of refugees.
"What's the situation?!" Yu Linwei's people were also confused.
They came in high spirits, wanting to engage the enemy and destroy him, but who knows, before the sword was unsheathed, and before the horse charged, the enemy ran away?
Confused, they still sent a part of their men to pursue the fleeing enemy generals, while reporting to Chen Zhi and Tai Shici in the back.
"10,000 stone of grain?! 3,000 quintals of coarse salt?! "Even Chen Zhi is staggering, these materials are really a lot, and if they are sold, they will cost thousands of gold.
"This Xuzhou has gone through several wars, but a small salt capital can still come out with these grains, and it really deserves to be the granary of the world!" Since ancient times, Xuzhou has been a battleground for soldiers.
Because the land here is fertile, and it is basically fertile land, even the grain production of a small salt capital can be compared to the scale of some states.
So when Lao Cao beat Tao Qian with a head and a rat string, there were only a few cities left, but Tao Qian was still able to get the grain and grass.
"With so much food, this Cao Jun is too careless, right?" Tai Shi Ci became more and more suspicious, there was an ambush in front of him.
Just kidding, this 10,000 stone of grain and grass and those salts, this is not a small number. It's all white gold.
Is he so relieved?
It's not just the enemy, maybe those bandits and those warriors will be able to give him Lao Cao.
After all, grain and salt are not marked.
In fact, Tai Shi Ci didn't know, this Xuzhou Thorn Shi Lord Lejin was really bitter and couldn't say it.
It's not that he doesn't want to send out the escorted soldiers and horses, but there is really no one to send.
The 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command were killed by our Huang Yi and Huang Generals, who accidentally let the tiger and leopard ride them. The tiger and leopard riders also followed and killed more than 800 people.
The rest of the soldiers and horses, Lejin was trapped in Langya County because of Zhang Xun's Modao Battalion in Langya County.
So Lejin could only let the grain transport team leave by itself.
Fortunately, there are really few people in Xuzhou who dare to touch Lao Cao's things, who let Lao Cao kill a lot of chickens in Xuzhou, how dare those scholars touch the tiger's beard, I am afraid that this Cao Heizi will come to clean up again.
But who would have thought that he would encounter Yuan Yao's cavalry today.
"General, there are no ambushes at all!" The people who were chasing General Cao over there also returned, and they captured the General Cao Jun who was transporting grain and grass.
"The general spares his life, the general spares his life!" As soon as he was caught, this Cao Jun general fell directly to his knees in front of Tai Shici and Chen Zhi.
"You're the captain of this grain caravan?"
"Yes, yes!"
"How many men do you have in this soldier, how many supplies are you carrying, and where are you sending them?" Tai Shi Ci asked one by one on the side.
"The villain's subordinates have 5,000 auxiliary soldiers, plus 3,000 people, a total of more than 8,000 people, and the materials include 15,000 stones of grain and grass, and 3,000 quintals of salt!" There is more food than Tai Shici thought, and the salt guessed correctly.
"The place to be sent is Xia Cai!"
"Xia Cai!" Tai Shi Ci's eyes narrowed, Xia Cai used to be Huainan's territory, and he Tai Shi Ci was guarding there at the beginning, and was beaten by Lao Cao, and finally had to abandon the city and leave.
I asked carefully, it turned out that this was the first delivery in this half a month, and there was also a transportation of grain and grass before, but Xuzhou Thorn Shi sent an order to suspend the transportation of grain and grass first, this time it was a one-time transportation of half a month, as for the escort troops before, there is no now, although the salt is too shou to ask Lejin.
And Lejin sent it away without escort in Anping in Xuzhou. Even the defenders of Yandu City were transferred a lot by Lejin.
"It seems that this old thief Cao Cao is really short of food and grass!" Tai Shi Ci analyzed the information, transporting ten thousand stones of grain and grass at one time is not a small number, not to mention that this is the salt capital, compared to the other two places Huaiyin and Pengcheng is still not a star and a half.
Even the salt is like this, and there may be more in those two places.
"Do you want to live!" Tai Shi Ci looked at this Cao Jun's captain.
"Huh?" This captain of Cao Jun was stunned for a moment, and then nodded violently, "Think!" ”
"Good! I'll give you a chance to live, and if this happens, you will not only be able to live, but you will also be able to give you a fortune! Tai Shici also saw that although the soldiers and horses of those grain and grass teams were scattered, their large army of grain was still in order.
Grain, grass, and salt are all classified into categories, which shows that this person is still a talent in terms of transportation, and if the things he Tai Shi Ci considers are completed, this Cao military captain may not be able to stay in the Cao army, so it is better to go to Yangzhou.
"General Taishi, what do you want?"
"I'm going to take the salt capital!" Tai Shi Ci said in an astonishing voice.
"Take the salt capital?" Chen Zhi was also stunned, "General Taishi, all of my subordinates are cavalry!" What's more? Chen Zhi means that he is under Yu Linwei, which can be regarded as symbolic over practical.
If Yu Linwei suffered heavy losses in the siege of the city, it would be difficult for him to explain, which is why Zhang Liao taught Yu Linwei the meaning of salt.
"Don't worry, General Chen Zhi, not to mention whether there are many defenders in Yandu now, even if there are, we don't have to attack the city at all!" Tai Shi Ci said with a smile.
"What do you mean?"
"Enough of these things!" As he spoke, Tai Shici pointed to the grain transport team over there.
"General Tai Shici still let me go!" Chen Zhi pointed to the soldiers who had already dismounted from the war horses over there and said, these individuals were all Yu Linwei, they got off the war horses and changed into the clothes of those auxiliary soldiers who transported grain, and unloaded the grain from the carriage carrying the grain one by one, and replaced it with a war knife pressed under the weeds.
There are two or three hundred people in Tai Shici and his entourage, and if there are too many people, they will startle the snakes, not to mention that the auxiliaries and people of the Cao army before have all run away, if they don't hurry up and catch up with the front, maybe Yandu will be on guard.
So I just selected two or three carriages, and hurried away, and only dismounted when I was about to approach Yandu City.
"General Chen Zhi, it's not that I'm too Shi Ci to grab the merit, but this step battle, you are not as familiar with me!" Tai Shici said with a smile at Chen Zhi.
He knew that Chen Zhi was worried about him, after all, only a hundred people wanted to capture a city, and if one didn't do it well, it would be able to wipe out the whole army.
No matter how high Tai Shi Ci's martial arts are, he can't carry a bunch of kitchen knives.
"As long as General Chen arrives in time, how can Ci be in danger!"
"Alright, all ideas!"
"Yes!" Tai Shici immediately took the captain of the Cao army and the two hundred people under his command and headed towards the Yandu City in front.
……
Huainan Cao Army is besieging the city, in Xuzhou Cao Army is still besieging the city, Langya County, Lejin's hair is almost white, I think he Lejin I is famous, how many big battles have been fought under Cao Cao.
In the first year of Xingping, Le Jin attacked Lu Bu in Puyang, Zhang Chao in Yongqiu, and Qiao Rui in Ku County.
In the third year of Jian'an, Le Jin recruited Zhang Xiu in Anzhong, surrounded Lu Bu in Xiapi, and broke his farewell generals.
In the fourth year of Jian'an, he attacked the shooting dog and attacked Liu Bei and Xiaopei, all of which won the victory, and worshiped him as the captain of the school.
Later, it was named the history of Xuzhou Thorn.
However, these achievements will be humiliated because of this Langya County.
The soldiers and horses of the Huainan Army actually ran all the way to Xuzhou and hid in Langya County, which made him lose more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, and now Langya County has also been lost.
He was cheeky enough to leave Xiahou Yuan behind, and he also took the soldiers and horses from other counties in Xuzhou to fight Langya County back.
However, this Langya County is like a turtle with its head retracted, and it can't crack his hard shell at all.
"Who the hell is this Tamad who built Langya County so strongly!" Le Jin is about to scold his mother.
If it was in the wild, Zhang Xun's Modao battalion in the city would have been wiped out I don't know how many times.
But they were in the city, leaning on the strong city of Langya County, and Le Jin was about to cry.
Lejin simply has no way.
"Drive, drive, drive!" Just when Le Jin was about to scold his mother, a war horse over there was quickly coming towards Le Jin's camp.
"Important military information, important military information!" A knight shouted with a letter in his hand.
"What's going on!"
The knight got off his horse and knelt down directly in front of Le Jin, "Report this, important military situation!" ”
Le Jin took out the letter from the knight's hand and looked at it, which was dumbfounded.
"What!" Le Jin's eyes widened, and he grabbed the knight, "Is this letter true?" ”
"It's true!" The knight replied.
Le Jin's brain panicked, and he was about to faint as soon as it was dark.
"Lord Thorn, Lord Thorn!" Everyone gathered around Lejin in a hurry.
Le Jin's fainting even Xiahou Yuan was shocked.
"What the hell happened to Wen Qian?"
"Miaocai, Yandu, Yandu City is broken!"
