Slowly looking at the back of Deng Ai leading the crowd to leave, Guan Ping looked ahead and pondered: "After taking Biyang, the next step is to create a movement to attract Cao Jun's attention." ”

"I don't believe it, Xu Du is really threatened, and Cao Cao will really give up the Central Plains for Fancheng?"

Xudu, located in Yingchuan County, Yuzhou, is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and is among the world.

Moreover, this is not just a matter of geographical advantages, Xudu is still the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, if the Jingzhou army captures Xudu, the political significance will be very different.

It is precisely based on this that Guan Ping feels that as long as the movement of his army is big enough, with Cao Cao's temperament, he will never sit idly by!

Then, reinforcements will definitely be sent, and naturally, the strength of Cao's army gathered on the Xiangfan front line will be relatively weakened.

Relieving the pressure on his father Guan Yu was also Guan Ping's first goal of being willing to lead the people north.

It must be known that in the original history, the Jingzhou army not only suffered a sneak attack in the rear, but the situation on the front line was not optimistic, with Cao Cao continuously sending reinforcements.

First, Xu Huang's new army, and then sent the elite twelve battalions of soldiers and horses south, it was in this situation that the gap in strength was extremely obvious, and there would be a hole in the northern defense line of the Jingzhou army, so that Xu Huang seized the opportunity to break through in one fell swoop.

In this life, Guan Ping took Xiangyang at the beginning, in addition to the unique geographical advantage, but also because of the liberation of troops on the shore of the Han River.

After all, if Xiangyang is not taken, the Jingzhou army will inevitably divide its troops to besiege the city, which will have an impact on the overstretched Jingzhou army.

"Take Biyang, tomorrow let Liu Jia be responsible for contacting the group of thieves watching from all over the country, our army will surrender to the public with the power of the Great Breaking Cao Army, I am not afraid that they will not be attached."

At this time, Guan Ping thought secretly.

It was precisely because he knew that there were many rebels in the land south of Xudu that Guan Ping had the confidence to go straight north with only 3,000 people.

Contacting all forces and coercing Xu Du, this is the plan.

Biyang City.

"Report, sir, the Jingzhou army has already run to the point that it is only more than ten miles away from the city."

"Hurry up, or you won't be able to leave."

Hearing the words of the scout who inquired, Biyang's expression suddenly became panicked, and he gave up his hand to persuade Chen Qun.

Biyang Ling, in fact, was also extremely worried this time, he personally asserted that he had a deep connection with Gong Yuan and was trustworthy, which prompted Xiahou Nanhui to make up his mind to go out of the city and attack.

At this moment, his own side was defeated, and he knew that he must be inseparable, after all, the contacts were all done by themselves.

Therefore, he was weak in his heart at this time, and he was anxious to persuade Chen Qun to evacuate, wanting to save the merits of the county officials and wash away this mistake.

Hearing this, Chen Qun's face was solemn and he said, "The Jingzhou army is here?" ”

"What about General Xiahou, he died in battle, or?"

"I hope it's not the latter, otherwise our army will be in trouble."

At this moment, when he heard that the Jingzhou army was coming, but Xiahou Nan did not lead the army back, Chen Qun had a vague guess in his heart, and then groaned secretly.

At this time, Chen Qun preferred that Xiahou Nan would die on the battlefield rather than be captured.

Staring at the outside of the city for a long time, Chen Qun sighed and said helplessly: "Wen County Order, organize everyone to evacuate." ”

"No!"

At the sound of the order, all the people in the city immediately dragged their families and mouths to the west of the city.

"Stomp, stomp!"

After about two quarters of an hour, Deng Ai led his soldiers to gallop and kill, and then stood outside the city.

Revealing a faint glow of fire, he stopped with his sword, ordered his soldiers to halt their advance, and then took a few steps forward and looked up at the city.

"Hey, the enemy city seems to be undefended, empty?"

Staring at it for a moment, Deng Ai thought secretly, quite surprised.

"All... The whole army, ascend to the city. ”

When the order was passed, the Jingzhou soldiers had already carried the prepared simple ladder close to the city wall, and then put the ladder diagonally and began to climb up.

In a short period of time, the Jingzhou soldiers climbed to the top of the city one after another, and the whole process was completed in one go, without encountering resistance.

"Squeak, squeak."

The next moment, the city gate suddenly opened, and a soldier rushed out of the city, galloping and saying: "Deng Dudu, the city is empty, and we have already taken control of the city." ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Deng Ai paused slightly, and then said secretly: "It seems that the Cao army has been defeated, and the rest have already scattered and fled." ”

"You... The two of them went to... Behind, to... Less... When the general told the truth, he said that our army had taken control of the city. ”

"The whole army is in the city!"

With an order, Deng Ai issued various orders in an orderly manner, and then personally led the rest of his subordinates into the city one after another.

The night gradually receded, and the dawn of dawn quietly came, gradually illuminating the sky.

At this moment, after a night of fierce fighting, Biyang City was finally recovered by the Jingzhou army, and the banner of the "Han" character planted on the city was also waving in the wind, showing an active side.

As for the raging fire in the water village on the shore, it gradually turned into dust after burning overnight.

At this time, at a glance, what you can see is that the surrounding area of the coast is filled with endless gunsmoke, and the water village has long been a black ruin.

Biyang, the head of the city.

Standing at the head of the city, Guan Ping stared at the direction of the water village, and after half a ring, his face showed joy and said: "A fire wiped out the main force of the Cao army and took Biyang City." ”

"If Biyang takes it, our army will have no worries when it goes north to Xudu."

"Ladies and gentlemen, the time for us to make contributions is not far away!"

For a moment, all the people gathered did not refute, and nodded slightly.

After the words fell, Liu Jia stood up and said: "Young General, now that Biyang has been taken down, it is time to deal with the group of thieves who rebelled against the Cao army in various places." ”

"When our army confronted the Cao army, the major thief forces were looking at each other and did not help each other, and now that the battle is over, it is time to clean them up."

As soon as he spoke, Deng Ai immediately echoed: "Huh... Few... General, Ai felt that Liu Jia was right... Reasonable, descend... Bandits... Forces, it's time to put it on the agenda. ”

"Good! Shizai, Liu Jia is reasonable, if the group of thieves is not eliminated, then our army is always full of threats. ”

"Only by sweeping away the threat can our army go north with peace of mind!"

After a pause, Guan Ping looked at Liu Jia from the side and chuckled: "Liu Jia, you have been here for a long time, and you must have friendships with the local thief forces on all sides, so now the general will hand over the task of recruiting the group of thieves to you." ”

"I don't know, do you dare to accept it?"

Hearing this, Liu Jia was immediately overjoyed, and immediately promised: "The last general will take the order!" ”

"Please also rest assured that now that our army has been defeated at the beginning of the Cao army, and the momentum is at the edge, in the face of solicitation, the bandit forces will not dare to refuse and oppose our army."

"Secondly, the leaders of several bandit armies in this rebellion, Ga has a good relationship with them."

"Major General, look at it, Jia will definitely live up to his mission, contact all forces, and come to attach."

For a while, Liu Jia's face did not change, and he swore to accept the order.
