Chapter 0542: Battle of Youzhou II
When Peng Yu's army stepped out of Jizhou and started the Youzhou Campaign, this "fifth line of defense" brought new laughter to the generals and soldiers of Peng Yu's army, making the civilian officials a little unable to raise their heads in front of these soldiers.

What's going on?
There is no other reason, the civil officials represented by Guo Jia threatened that the "fifth line of defense" of Renqiu City and Gaoyang County, which was difficult to defend and difficult to attack, would surrender directly after Peng Yu's army came to the city.
Such a result was not only unexpected by the civil officials, but even unexpected by Peng Yu, although Peng Yu felt that Karasuma and Yellow Turban were useless, but these two places seemed to be able to bring some trouble to Peng Yu.
But the yellow turban and Karasuma still surrendered!
Peng Yu was naturally overjoyed by this, and when he saw Yan Zheng, the guard of Ren Qiu City, kneeling in front of him, Peng Yu gave an order to let Yan Zheng continue to take the post of Taishou of Qiu Cheng.
Ren Qiucheng was too grateful, and immediately reported a piece of information to Peng Yuyu.
"General, the Yellow Turban Army's food has long been insufficient, so it will be so disheartened and vulnerable, and now the cities everywhere are looking forward to the general's army, if the general waives the army, there will be continuous people along the way!"
"Oh? I see? ”
No wonder the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban and Karasuma is so unbearable, but it is because of the soldiers' rations!
In fact, Peng Yu had already noticed this, because the cities taken by Peng Yu's army did not have much grain and grass, but it was just enough for Peng Yu's army to eat and wear.
This is really a bit unusual for a large state, but in terms of strict policy, the situation is much easier to understand.
I don't even have anything to eat, and I still expect the yellow turban and Karasuma to form combat effectiveness?
Therefore, Peng Yu was in Renqiu City, and he confidently issued a military order, and the army came out together to attack the city everywhere.
The speed of advance of Peng Yu's army is undoubtedly very amazing, and in less than ten days, the battle line has been pushed to the location of "Zhuo County" and "Fanyang County", the seat of Youzhou.
In other words, as long as Zhuo County and Fanyang County are won, this means that Peng Yu can easily take half of Youzhou.
Zhuo County and Fanyang County are undoubtedly the sixth line of defense in Guo Jia's mouth.
Originally, Peng Yu scoffed at this, but he couldn't stand Guo Jia's persuasion three times a day with his sick body, which made Peng Yu annoyed, and finally couldn't help but go to find out in person.
Peng Yu didn't pay attention to Guo Jia's words, but when Peng Yu arrived in person to see it, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, knowing that Guo Jia was afraid that Guo Jia was right.
The city wall is unattainable, the wall is full of bows and arrows, and the yellow turban banner is displayed, no matter how you look at it, it is like a decisive battle with Peng Yu as if the enemy is about to fight.
And these two places may be difficult to take easily, in other words, Peng Yu will face the first test here, whether to attack or outwit or temporarily withdraw the army?
The civil officials began to chew their tongues again, because Peng Yu came all the way, the speed of the advance was too fast, and the supply of grain and grass had long been out of touch, if it weren't for the fact that the local cities were all taken down by Peng Yu in an instant, I am afraid that it would not be the Yellow Turban and Karasuma Army that would starve, but Peng Yu's own army.
Moreover, Peng Yu attacked the city too quickly, and the supply of grain and grass couldn't keep up, not to mention the soldiers who received the defense from all over the place? It would be even more difficult to connect with the rhythm of Peng Yu's army.
Therefore, the more they fight to the back, as long as the Yellow Turban and Karasuma are invited, almost all of them are appointed by Peng Yu as the local Taishou.
It's not that Peng Yu believes in it, but there is no one to use.
So this is the fundamental purpose of why the civilian officials have been letting Peng Yu slow down the offensive, so that Peng Yu's grain and grass and the soldiers who receive the defense can keep up, so that Peng Yu's army has no worries!
Peng Yu was a little hesitant about this.
First, aren't their own troops all the men and horses who surrendered to the Yellow Turbans at the beginning? Haven't these people been following Peng Yu for many years?
In other words, Peng Yu had always been accustomed to trusting the surrendered soldiers, and he didn't have too many doubts.
is also because Peng Yu has won all the way since he started the army, so Peng Yu's self-confidence has become higher and higher.
Second, if he slows down the offensive, he will definitely give the Yellow Turban and Karasuma a chance to breathe, which is definitely not what Peng Yu wants to see.
Third, there was a big victory along the road, and the morale was booming, and it was the right time to attack the city at this time.
…………
Luoyang, Dong Mansion.
"Dong Gong, we have quietly taken over the garrison of the palace, what should we do next?"
Dong Zhong poured himself a glass of wine very rarely, drank it all in one gulp, and muttered, "Luoyang is already ready, as long as there are no mistakes, just wait for the opportunity." ”
Seeing that Dong Zhong was leisurely, Yuan Kui's confidence naturally rose a lot, but still like this, Yuan Kui still couldn't help but ask, "Dong Gong, this matter is very important, will we discuss and ponder again?" ”
Dong Chong's face changed, and he sneered: "Discussion? What's on the point? I said, Lord Yuan, didn't you come to the front of the battle, and you want to retreat, right? ”
Yuan Kui hurriedly said, "Dong Gong must not misunderstand the old man's determination, but this plan is mixed with so many people, and he has to face so many forces, and he must let the surnamed Peng throw himself into the net, which makes Yuan come to see it, it is too much to take it for granted, so remind Dong Gong that this must be guarded against." ”
When Dong Chong heard this, his brows tightened, and his face was a little difficult to look at.
Yuan Kui further said, "And this plan, which spans thousands of miles, and requires the cooperation of many parties, how can everything in this world be as expected?" So Yuan is really a little worried. ”
When Dong Chong heard this, his face deepened and sank, and he seemed to be in a deep thought.
Yuan Kui sighed and said faintly, "Moreover, the biggest variable in this matter is still that Peng Yu, although this son is the enemy of you and me, it is undeniable that this person is higher than us everywhere, not Yuan Mou to increase the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige, when it comes to strategizing, winning thousands of miles away, this is probably not as much as that Peng Yu for you and me." ”
When Yuan Kui finished speaking and looked at Dong Chong, he found that Dong Chong's face had returned to its original state, and he looked confident.
"In the midst of strategizing, a decisive victory is thousands of miles away?"
Dong Chong muttered a few words, his face seemed to become more and more calm, and he only heard Dong Chong mutter, "How can you and I compare to Peng Yu?" Peng Yu's son is all above you and me, so for many years, you and I have been defeated in the confrontation with him. ”
Yuan Kui looked worried, "This ......"
Dong Chongyi waved his hand and said confidently, "Don't worry about Gong Yuan, the fight with Peng Yu is not without the slightest gain, at least you and I have been fighting with him for several years, so that the old man has a maximum harvest." ”
"Oh? What's the catch? ”
Dong Zhong said with a smile: "Because the old man found that I was not as good as Peng Yu, but Peng Yu's wisdom was not as much as the other." ”
"Could it be that Dong Gong is talking about Sima ......"
Dong Chong's face was radiant, and he said loudly with a domineering face, "Yes, what the old man said is Sima Gongzi!" ”
