Chapter 1449: A Dangerous Time (Part I)

Yang Jikang's brother Yang Jizhong blocked Cao Cao's arrows in the chaos, but was seriously injured and died, so far all the Yang generals who defected to Cao Cao died in battle.

Yin Xun's second son, Yin Jiao, who has reached the level of a god general, was ambushed by Li Yan under the carelessness of design.

Yin Jiao was besieged by many generals of the invading army, not only killed several generals, but also wounded Li Guo, and finally died under the heart of ten thousand arrows after killing more than 200 people in a row.

In addition to Yang Jikang, Yang Jizhong and Yin Jiao, there were 23 generals such as Cao Anmin, Cao Yong, Cao Cheng, Cao Shun, Xia Houen, Xiahou Jie, Yang Ming, and Zhu Ci, who died in the battle with the four princes of Yanzhou and Li Zicheng, which shows how difficult it was for Cao Cao to unify Yanzhou.

After Li Zicheng's death, the road for the remnants of Mount Tai to retreat to Jizhou was cut off, and most of the families fell into the hands of Cao Cao, so the high-level of the remnants wanted to surrender to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao did something that he regretted.

Li Yan's wife, the Red Lady, and Li Zicheng's wife, Gao Guiying, are both beauties who have left their names on the Hundred Flowers List.

After Cao Cao saw his second daughter, Se Lingzhi was dazed and forcibly accepted Li Zicheng and Li Yan's wives, annoying Li Zicheng's nephew Li Guo and military advisor Li Yan.

The aunt and beloved wife were humiliated, and it was impossible for Li Guo and Li Yan to surrender to Cao Cao, so they risked the annihilation of the whole army and went to Zhu Yuanzhang through many dangers.

All in all, Cao Cao's process of unifying Yanzhou was definitely more difficult than Liu Xiu's conquest of Jingnan, but he still broke through layers of obstacles and gritted his teeth to survive, and became one of the strongest princes in the world.

There are three major battlefields in the Central Plains, Yuzhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

The two states of Henan and Yan have suffered countless casualties, and although Xuzhou has the lowest number of casualties, the intensity of the battle is incomparable to that of the two states combined, and it is simply a non-stop war at the level of the god of war and the god general.

On the side of Xuzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Shiji each led an army against Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's two armies.

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's command, there are not only Luo Shixin, the god of war at the level of super god generals, but also many god generals such as Xue Ju, Xue Rengao, Xiang Zhuang, and other overlords of Western Qin.

Of course, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's lineup is stronger, with Jiang Song, Yuwen Chengdu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and so on.

However, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, although they were stronger than Zhu Yuanzhang in terms of generals, were too far behind in terms of military strength and heritage, so that they lost Xiapi County and were forced to engage in guerrilla warfare.

The Xuzhou battlefield under the command of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang is almost a small battle in three days and a big battle in five days, and even three battles a day can be fought at the most intense time, of course, Zhu Yuanzhang, who is assisted by Fan Zeng, is the one who has the upper hand.

In the Battle of Xuzhou, Jiang Song fought with Luo Shixin three times, and achieved two wins and one loss, and once after defeating Luo Shixin, he fought alone against Liang Shidu, Liang Luoren, and Liang Hulang brothers, and killed the three brothers in one fell swoop.

Yuwen Chengdu once fought Xue Wang, Xue Ju, Xue Rengao, Xue Renyue, and four fathers and grandsons, and three of them were god generals, and under the joint efforts of the three generations of grandfathers and grandchildren, even Yuwen Chengdu could only temporarily avoid the edge.

Later, when he was on the same page, Zhang Fei restrained Xue Ju, and Yuwen Chengdu still exerted great power even if he was an enemy, not only hitting Xue Rengao hard, but also killing Xue Wang and Xue Renyue, two generals, which can be said to have taken over the hatred of killing his father and son.

Because of Xiang Yu's relationship, Zhuge Liang wanted to let the Xiang family have a way to live, but in the chaotic army, not everything can be decided by him, Xiang Bo and Xiang Sheng died in the decisive battle of Xiapi, and the brother of the Xiang family who took refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang was left with Xiang Zhuang;

Zhang Fei fought dozens of battles, killing Zhou Yin, Fan Wuzhi, Chu Liang, and Hao Ying successively; Even Liu Bei personally killed Tang Bi;

Although Guan Yu fought constantly on the battlefield in Xuzhou, either against Luo Shixin or was beaten by Xue Ju's family, he did not have any outstanding records of beheading.

However, it is precisely because of this that Zhu Yuanzhang will accept Guan Yu's surrender, after all, the generals under his command are seriously damaged, and there is an urgent need for generals to replenish, and Guan Yu, the god of war, is a general he admires very much.

If Guan Yu killed many generals under Zhu Yuanzhang's command, no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang admired him, he would definitely execute Guan Yu without hesitation.

Although the generals under Zhu Yuanzhang suffered a lot of losses, Liu Bei was also uncomfortable, Cao Bao, Zhao Yu, Chen Qi, Mi Fang and other generals were all killed, and the soldiers and horses were lost, and there were less than 100 people left under his command.

Of course, the worst thing is Chen Qi's Chen family, because the confrontation with Zhu Yuanzhang is the most fierce, he was directly punished by the nine clans, and only one Chen Deng remained, and followed Liu Bei to Qin Hao.

Qin's army also suffered losses, with only 2,000 of the 20,000 troops left, and the general Wu Song was also damaged.

Wu Song and Qiang Zhong Lishi fought for thirty rounds and killed him, but then he was attacked by Zong Luohu and cut off an arm, and Qin Yi and Yang Zhi on the side could not be rescued, and watched Wu Song being stabbed to death by a group of soldiers.

However, immediately afterwards, Qin Yi and Yang Zhi joined forces to severely damage Zong Luohu, and Qin Yi cut off Zong Luohu's head with one shot, which can be regarded as avenging Wu Song.

In addition to Wu Song's death, Jiang Song, Yuwen Chengdu, Qin Yi and Yang Zhi were all affected to varying degrees, but fortunately, they all returned to Luoyang safely.

As for Hebei, before Yuan Shao became the duke, he fought with Li Jing and Song Jiang.

Xiao Tong, Cheng Jingjun, and Sun An, three generals, died at the hands of Ran Min after recovering from his injuries;

Ma Xianqi and Wang Seng were killed by Jintai successively;

Tai Shi Ci killed Chang Yizhi, Pei Di and Xiao Gang in a row;

Yang Jiren was killed by Lu Junyi, the general of Liangshan;

Yang Jiyi was beaten to death by Dong Ping, Shi Jin, Hu Yanzhuo and other Liangshan generals;

At this point, the generals of the Yang family, who took refuge in Yuan Shao, were also all killed in battle;

Many generals died under Yuan Shao, and the same was true for the Qin-Liang coalition army.

The three generals of Liangshan, Song Qing, Song Wan, and Mu Hong were all killed by the silver-speared ancestor Yutaiyu, and they were tortured and killed, and they couldn't run away if they wanted to;

Lei Heng and Li Jun were killed by the sand curtain;

Xie Zhen and Xie Bao died at the hands of Wen Chou;

Even Qin Ming, who was born in the Qin family, died under Yan Liang's knife;

On the battlefield of Qingzhou, Zhao and Qin Liang were completely killed, and Yuan Shao saw that the casualties were too great, so in order not to let Han Fu Yuwen benefit, he sensibly chose to retreat.

This is only the situation in the Central Plains, the degree of chaos in Liangzhou is even worse than that in the Central Plains, but because the Han princes are united to the outside world, the losses of the Han people are not large, and the deaths are basically Qiang people.

Yelu Guozhen and Yelu Sha were both killed by Ma Chao, but they were killed back;

Yelushin was killed by Yan Xing in ten rounds;

Yeluwan and Yeluhui were killed by Wu Yunzhao successively;

Yelu Dashi was killed by Shi Wansui;

Yelu Abaoji committed suicide;

Yelu Chucai, Yelu Hugo and Yelu Xian, led the remnants to take refuge in the Yuanmeng Empire;
