Chapter 112: Boss Cao's Return to the Army (Third Update)
"Envoy."
Xi Zhong's eyes were lowered, and he said unhurriedly, "Back then, Han Gaozu guarded Guanzhong, and Emperor Guangwu occupied Hanoi, both of which first consolidated the base and then plotted the world, so that the advance could win, and the retreat could be stubborn, although the process was a little tortuous, but in the end they all achieved the great cause of the world." ”
"The envoy was originally based on Yanzhou's momentum, a few years ago to pacify the Montenegrin military disaster, the people are all happy and convinced, and Yanzhou across the Yellow River, Jishui, is the world's rush, this place is the envoy's Guanzhong, Hanoi, must first stabilize Yanzhou and then Xuzhou."
"What's more, now Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao has absorbed the remnants of Tao Qian and is ready to unite to resist the monarch to defend Guangling, so it is almost impossible to solve this war in a short period of time like the East China Sea and Langxie, if you waste too much time in Guangling, Xiahou Taishou and Xun Sima will not have many soldiers, horses and grains in the hands of Sima Xian, and they may not be able to resist for a long time, and compared with a mere Guangling County and a Yanzhou, it is like a glass of wine and a jar of wine, so how can you choose?"
"Zhicai understands that you actually want to have it all, but if you can only choose between the two, you will definitely not give up a jar of wine for a glass of wine."
"What's more, this glass of wine doesn't know how to walk, as long as you stabilize Yanzhou and come back, Guangling County is still in your pocket."
Speaking of this, Xi Zhong bowed to Cao Cao again, and said: "The affairs of the world do need to have trade-offs, it is okay to exchange the big for the small, and it is also okay to exchange safety for danger. ”
After listening to Xi Zhong's words, Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahaha, what Zhicai said is deep in my heart!" Come and send an order to return to the army to rescue Yanzhou, there must be no mistake! ”
……
At the same time, the situation in Yanzhou is also changing rapidly.
Sure enough, as Wu Liang expected, because Boss Cao's front-line battle was incomparable, the Wen sent by Zhang Miao everywhere this time was not as good as in history.
In Yanzhou, except for Chen Gong, the performance is the most active.
Less than half of the remaining cities responded, and the rest chose to ignore them or explicitly express their neutrality.
These are typical wallgrasses.
They also want to wait and see the situation again, if Lu Bu and Zhang Miao attack the city and move forward, they will immediately vassal over, if Lu Bu and Zhang Miao do not go well, when Boss Cao returns, they will not be considered rebels, and they will not ignite the fire.
Lu Bu, Zhang Miao, and even Chen Gong should also understand this, so they quickly moved north to launch a war.
This first battle was fought in Juancheng, where Wu Liang was located.
Of course, it is definitely not for Wu Liang, but because Boss Cao's family is now in Juancheng.
This is in line with the history that Wu Liang knows.
Therefore, this battle was just a feint attack with heavy thunder and small rain, ostensibly attacking Juancheng, but in fact, it was mainly to deceive Xiahoudun, who was stationed in Puyang, to come to the rescue, and then take advantage of the weakness to enter and take Puyang.
It's a pity that this time, Lu Bu and others miscalculated.
According to the strategy formulated by Xiahoudun and others around the "flying slaves", Juancheng is the most important strategic axis of the Yanzhou defenders, leaving heavy troops on standby, just waiting for the Xiahoudun Division, Cao Yu Division, and Cheng Yu Division, which are carrying the "Flying Slaves", to use the "Flying Slaves" to send back news when they encounter danger, and divide troops to support at any time.
Therefore, in the face of the small-scale harassment arranged by Lu Bu and others, Xun Yu not only panicked, but also immediately sent a large number of soldiers and horses out of the city to come to a counter-encirclement, and directly ate all the small enemy troops......
???
These three question marks are the feelings of Lu Bu, Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and others after receiving the news.
Why are there so many soldiers and horses in Juancheng?
Could it be that Xiahoudun had already come to Juancheng in advance to protect Cao Cao's family?
But even so, the two of them should not have the strength to go out of the city and counter the encirclement, could it be that Cao Cao left heavy troops here to guard it, but we don't know?
So Lu Bu and others immediately led the army to attack Puyang, where Xiahoudun was stationed.
Then they actually met Xiahoudun in Puyang......
???
Xiahoudun didn't go to Juancheng to rescue at all?
He hasn't even gotten out of the city gate yet, hasn't he received the news of our attack on Juancheng, or is it because Juancheng is heavily guarded and doesn't need him to come to the rescue?
How can you take advantage of this?
Lu Bu and the others discussed it, and finally decided to attack Puyang.
They are just starting to gain momentum, and they urgently need a relatively big victory to prove their strength, so that those wall-riding factions will only respond when they see it.
Thereupon.
They were dragged to Puyang......
At this time, there were no particularly powerful siege weapons, the defending side had an absolute advantage, and Xiahoudun was well prepared, so it was impossible to attack it in the short term.
What made Xiahoudun even more chaotic was that even when the war was urgent, as long as the "flying slaves" were released, the soldiers and horses of Juancheng could come to the rescue within one day.
So let's spend it first.
When Lu Bu and Zhang Miao's troops are tired, maybe they can send news that Juancheng will send troops to present the encirclement, and also give them a pot.
And in this process, Cao Yu from Liqiu and Cheng Yu from Fan County were not idle.
In addition to leaving some defenders, the two of them have united and waved their troops north, going straight to Dong'e and Liaocheng to quell the chaos.
These two people brought the "flying slave" and they were also very confident, they were not afraid of going deep into the enemy formation and being trapped somewhere and unable to ask for help, plus this Yanzhou Rebellion was not all enemies as in history, and the speed at which the two of them advanced was also extremely fast.
In just ten days, the northern part of Yanzhou has almost been recovered.
In this battle, Cao Yu's bravery and Cheng Yu's resourcefulness matched each other, and they actually produced a good chemical effect.
Conspiracies and yang attacks emerge one after another, only teaching those rebels who have just rebelled, have not had time to join Lu Bu and others, and are still leaderless and fighting for themselves.
I don't know what kind of mood Boss Cao, who rushed to rescue the army in a hurry, will be after he comes back, seeing such a good form in Yanzhou?
……
On this day, Wu Liang, who had nothing to do, was taking a nap in the room.
Cao Ni came uninvited.
"Son-in-law, Sima has been busy with military affairs recently, and he is resting in the room, so it is inconvenient to meet his son-in-law, please come back another day."
Seeing Cao Ni walking into the courtyard, Dian Wei immediately got up and stood in front of her and said.
"He rests on him, and I don't look for him."
Glancing at Dian Wei, Cao Ni pouted and walked straight to the backyard.
In order to prevent her from messing around in the house, Dian Wei silently followed behind and monitored.
Unexpectedly, after Cao Ni entered the backyard, his eyes swept around, and he came directly to Bai Jingjing, who was preparing pigeon food in front of the pigeon loft, and asked, "What's your name?" ”
