Chapter 471: Jizhou Blitzkrieg (I)
"Hey, it's September, why is it still so hot, it's going to be hot!"
"Hot death? Oh, don't you see, in the west of the city, there are no people who die of heat or starvation one day? ”
"Captain Wu, don't talk nonsense, there are really people who die of heat and starvation?"
"Nonsense? Not to mention anything else, in previous years, no, just last year, we could still eat two thin meals a day, and we could still fish dry every three or five days. What now? It's thin every day! That's it, damn it, I can't find half a grain of rice in the bowl every day, and it's all lifting to say that he is thin! ”
"Uh...... Wu Chang, it doesn't matter if you don't say this, as soon as you say it, we're a little hungry. ”
"Are you hungry? We're hungry too! Hide from the sun, maybe you won't feel hungry! ”
"Really? Then let's take a good day! ”
"Ahh Do you know that by then you will not be hungry, but you will already be dead, and you will become a human being! ”
"Ah...... What is that? ”
"Not good, enemy attack!"
Thundered~
"Run~"
The two people who had just spoken, together with a few guys watching the play next to them, immediately ran to the city.
Click~
A big head rolled in the dust, and Wu Chang looked down, hey, isn't it the little soldier who wanted to bask in the sun and not be hungry who was talking to him just now! Everyone's hearts trembled and stopped.
"Whoever dares to run again, this is the end!"
The face of the person who came was full of fierceness, and the big knife in his hand was still dripping blood, which was even more formidable. But the person who came ignored this, opened the bloody mouth in everyone's eyes, and said, "Close the city gate!" Close the gates now! ”
Da Da Da ~ The sound of horses' hooves was already clearly audible, but with the shock just now, everyone dared to say more, so they could only turn around and stretch out their hands to push the city gate. It's just that they haven't eaten enough for a long time, where do they still have much strength to push the city gate, and the little strength they have was used up when they fled for their lives just now, including their souls.
"Kill!"
The horse's hooves are flying, and the knife is fast!
Pieces of knife shadows, heads flying!
The gate was only halfway closed, and the enemy army slaughtered the gate, and then completely shredded the fragile barrier with fierce steel knives.
Half an hour!
No, say half an hour, it's all lifting! Since the cavalry broke through the city gates, the army defending the city could not raise a decent resistance at all, and more often than not, they did not surrender on their knees, but ran around like headless flies, and finally were captured.
"Leave a song to guard the city."
Xu Rong looked at a group of thin captives, gave a casual order, and left with the rest of the soldiers.
Since Gongsun Du's order was issued, Xu Rong had already thought that the speed of this attack on Jizhou must be fast, because only if the speed is fast enough can it deter those ordinary people and make them temporarily lose the idea of fleeing. After all, it is better to die than to live, and it is better to die late than to die early!
Because only if the speed is fast enough, the Yuan army will not have time to react, as long as they can't react, they can attack the city and seize the land faster.
Xu Rong led the troops a little treacherous, this time to attack Hebei, he did not start from Fan Yuting, because it had already become a key monitoring point for the Yuan army in Jizhou. Instead, from the border of Youji, the soldiers divided the road, and went straight to the north of the river. Just when he took Yi County, Huang Zhong and others also successively won Wen'an, Yan County and other cities, and the speed can be described as extremely fast.
On the other hand, led by Zhao Yun, the troops were also divided into troops, and the 50,000 troops attacked Zhongshan and Changshan, and the speed was also extremely fast.
To say that the war horses cultivated by the Youzhou Army for so many years are already very good and fast enough, is there any problem with this? People who haven't looked at Goguryeo, Buyeo, and Lou Ru, in addition to starting farming, are they becoming professional horse-raising grooms!
The two armies moved quickly, marching four hundred times a day, like two steel knives slashing at Jizhou, cutting it into three points on the left, middle and right.
Whether it was Xu Rong or Zhao Yun, they had ventilated earlier, and attacked all the way south, ignoring the "deliciousness" on their side, and they didn't have the slightest idea of tasting a bite.
It takes a lot of time to storm cities and plunder, even if you go on a long journey with cavalry. So, when ......
"The Youzhou army marched south, and all the way has taken Shangquyang, Lingshou, Xinshi, Jiumen, and Zhending...... Gaoyi, down half of Changshan, half of Zhongshan, is about to enter the Zhao State or Julu; The other way is from Yi County, Wen'an is difficult to attack, and now it is killed to Anping Xindu, Hejian and Anping have been disabled, and then they are either westward to Julu, or south to Qinghe? ”
Xu You, Guo Tu and others got the news almost at the same time, and hurriedly put on their clothes and left the mansion under the scorching sun.
"Ziyuan?"
Halfway through, Guo Tu saw Xu Yu standing in the middle of the road, understood something in a trance, shouted, and asked the coachman to stop, and then ran away by himself without help.
"Gongzhi, you're here?"
"You really are really waiting for Guo!"
"Hey!" Xu You laughed and said in a low voice, "Received the news?" ”
Guo Tu raised his eyebrows and did not speak.
"Huh!" Xu You smiled again and said, "What do you think the Youzhou Army is doing?" ”
Guo Tu pretended to think about it and said: "The Youzhou army is fierce, is it to send troops at this time?" ”
"Pick up a bargain?"
Xu You said disdainfully: "Tens of thousands of people, they can't take a pass guarded by 800 people, and they still pick up cheap, public rules, are you joking?" ”
Xu You was talking about last year's Battle of Huguan, Ju Yi and Tian Feng were all beaten back in disgrace, but there was a lot of jokes, Guo Tu's face twitched, and he said unhappily: "Don't forget whose idea it is to attack Bingzhou, if it weren't for the fact that the lord didn't pursue it, I'm afraid it would be ordinary." ”
Xu You's cheeks also twitched, and then he skimmed over the stubble and said, "Since the Youzhou Army is so brave, why didn't it advance steadily and steadily, but advanced wildly?" Why? ”
"Maybe people have something else in mind!" Guo Tu was shocked in his heart, but he didn't want to expose his opinion, so he just said with a disdainful face.
"Huh!"
Xu You smiled again and said, "Guo Gongze, Guo Gongze, what you said is Zhongzhi and George, they also got it, and you want to deceive Xu?" It's not even close! ”
"Really? Then you should say it, let Guo also listen to our Lord Xu's high opinions! Guo Tu was not fooled at all, but sarcastically.
"That's it!" Xu You smiled proudly, dotted his fingers, and said, "Then let you listen carefully." ”
"The Youzhou army took advantage of the drought to take advantage of the fact that it has not stopped, and it has been driving straight in, I'm afraid that the one who came is not good!"
"Oops...... Ahh Fools know that the comers are not good, and they still need to say it? Guo Tu squinted at Xu You and said.
Xu You was suddenly unhappy, and said unhappily: "I don't need Xu to say, but Xu wants to ask, the Youzhou Army understands that it is coming to Yecheng, are you afraid or not?" ”
Guo Tu's body shook, his neck shook, and said, "Afraid? That's impossible! ”
……
When Yuan Shao got the news, a mouthful of blood spurted out, so that Xu You, Guo Tu and others could only press the uneasiness in their hearts and wait for the doctor to diagnose and treat them.
But I didn't know that at this time, in the direction of Qinghe Country, a large army also appeared. In one day, he successively took the defenseless Juan County and Ling County, and then drove his troops into Ganling, all the way to the west.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Shao woke up and received the news again, so he was so angry that he vomited blood again. Fortunately, after the previous blow, Yuan Shao's nerves were much more fragile and he couldn't toss.
"At present, I hope that you will work together to defeat the invading enemy!"
Yuan Shao said a simple sentence and waved everyone away, leaving only Guo Tu and Xin Ping.
"The Youzhou army is here, and what they did is nothing more than this head."
When Guo Tu and Xin Ping heard this, they were so frightened that they fell directly to the ground, and said in unison: "The lord is serious!" ”
"Serious? Not serious! ”
Yuan Shao waved his hand and said: "As long as Yuan's head is taken, Jizhou will ......" Yuan Shao seemed to recall, and seemed to see it: "Jizhou probably can't hold it." ”
Guo Tu and Xin Ping still had to say more, but they saw Yuan Shao continue: "In fact, after today's incident, even if the Youzhou Army is not this idea, Yuan will not have a few days to live. ”
"The lord can't, by all means, ...... at this time" Although Guo Tu was more inclined to Yuan Tan, Yuan Shao's kindness to him also made him loyal, and he was busy at this time.
"Your body knows it yourself."
Yuan Shao no longer paid attention to the two, but said, "If you want, you can assist Tan Er." Although Tan Er lacks intelligence, he is a person who can listen to advice, and it is not too bad to have your assistance. If you don't want to, I hope you can think of saving Tan Er and Shang'er's lives, and want to come to Gongsun Du, or Cao Cao will still sell Yuan a certain face. ”
The words fell, but Guo Tu and Xin Ping didn't dare to raise their heads, they just held their breath and listened.
Guo Tu and Xin Ping looked up and saw that Yuan Shao had closed his eyes, and couldn't help but be shocked, but fortunately, they finally found that Yuan Shao was just tired and fell asleep.
The next day, Yuan Shao woke up, his spirit was the same as last night, extremely sluggish, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was the appearance of his life soon.
