Chapter 347: The General Trend

The Taishan Army is a group similar to the Montenegrin Army, and Zang Ba's status is also very similar to Zhang Yan. They are only the nominal leaders, and there are large and small leaders underneath. Zang Ba is only the general alliance leader of the Taishan Army, and he does not have absolute control over the people below.

This led to the Taishan army in the offensive to show a scattered situation, these separate soldiers, only when on the defensive can play a strong combat effectiveness.

Zang Ba led an army of 30,000 to Yongqiu, and he may not have other thoughts in his heart. But after seeing the appearance and equipment of the tooth soldiers, he immediately dispelled that caution. He parked the army ten miles away, galloped to the foot of Yongqiu City with hundreds of horses, and asked to meet the general.

Chen Cheng stopped the army here, just waiting for Zang Ba's soldiers and horses to come and converge. When he heard that he had arrived, he immediately ordered someone to take him to the county office. Zang Ba was eight feet long and extremely brave, so he was able to overwhelm the thieves of Mount Tai and pinch hundreds of thousands of people together, at least on the surface. His martial arts and courage have few opponents, and his eyes are higher than the top on weekdays, but after seeing all the tooth soldiers with big shoulders and round waists, he can only put away that bit of pride.

After entering the lobby of the county office, Zang Ba looked up and saw Chen Cheng sitting on a chair, and Lu Bu standing behind Chen Cheng with a Fang Tian halberd in his hand. He had seen Pound before, and his form was no longer below himself. I thought that he was the strongest general under the command of the general, but now I suddenly saw Lu Bu, who was nine feet tall, and I couldn't help but be surprised.

"I heard that the great general is brave in the world, could it be that this person standing behind the chair and carrying a weapon is the real general?"

At this moment, such a strange idea popped up in Zang Ba's head. But soon, this idea was overturned by himself. Although the nine-foot-tall armor soldier has an extraordinary bearing, the person sitting on the chair has a true hegemonic demeanor.

Tao Qian and Liu Bei, whom Zang Ba had seen, were both people with strong personalities, and they both had convincing charms. But he now feels that even the two lords of Xuzhou combined, they can't match the general demeanor of the general in front of him.

He pushed the golden mountain, bowed down like a jade pillar, and said, "Minister Zangba, meet the general!" ”

Chen Cheng looked at Zang Ba's majestic body and said with a smile: "General Zhendong, please get up, the general is here today, which makes me very happy." After Cao Cao was captured, I played the Son of Heaven and worshiped the general as Langya's Taishou. ”

General Zhendong is just an empty name, but Langya Taishou is a real benefit. Zang Ba was overjoyed and immediately said: "I am willing to die for the general!" ”

Although their Taishan army supported the army and divided one side, it has always been despised by the scholars. Being able to be canonized by the Son of Heaven and become a county Taishou naturally has a great attraction to Zang Ba. He secretly said in his heart: It seems that this time is the right time!

Chen Cheng and Zang Ba talked about the situation in Xuzhou for a while, and when they saw Zang Ba frequently looking at Lu Bu behind him, he introduced: "This is Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, temporarily serving as my guard." ”

Lu Bu? Zang Ba felt that this name was familiar, and after thinking about it again, wasn't it the prince who once occupied Guanzhong and was the envy of the world? After the general defeated this person hundreds of times, he still dared to use him as a guard?

Zang Ba arched his hand to Lu Bu and said, "It turned out to be General Lu Bu, and he has admired his name for a long time." ”

Lu Bu sneered and said, "What kind of name can a certain family have?" ”

His voice is very peculiar, as if it is made by rubbing metal against each other, and it will leave a deep impression on people when they hear it. Lu Bu's voice wasn't like this before, but suddenly it changed, and no one knew why.

Zang Ba couldn't help but be stunned, and turned his head to look at Chen Cheng, not knowing if Lu Bu was in this nature or at the behest of the general. Chen Cheng waved his hand and said, "Xuan Gao doesn't have to care, General Lu has always spoken like this. And his old general, Gao Shun, was not killed by Cao Cao, he was in a bad mood, so we don't have to worry about him. ”

Lu Bu snorted coldly again when he heard this, and said in a cold voice: "This time in the battle with Cao Cao, a certain family must cut off his head and use it as a drowning weapon!" ”

Zang Ba said in his heart: Lu Bu is so rude, but the general is not angry, is this broad-minded, or is the emperor unruly?

While he was talking, Xu Rong, who had arranged a camp for Zang Bajun, walked in, followed by Fa Zheng, Meng Da, as well as Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao, Zang Hong and others. Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao and Zang Hong were all local scholars in Yanzhou, and they were very dissatisfied with Cao Cao, and after Bian Rang was killed, they were even more sad.

Therefore, as soon as Chen Cheng raised his arms, these people responded in groups, seized cities in various places, and fell to the side of the imperial court. Among these people, Chen Gong was the first person to elect Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou, and he was also entrusted with important tasks by Cao Cao. Zhang Chao is a local wealthy family in Yongqiu, and the soldiers and horses in the city are all his troops. Zang Hong is the protΓ©gΓ© of the Yuan family, and it is only by Yuan Shao's recommendation that he can be in a high position.

The rest of the people also have their own backgrounds, either famous scholars, or strong people. Although they were suppressed by Cao Cao for a long time, once the flag of rebellion was raised, Yanzhou immediately changed. Chen Cheng was making false promises with these people, but he was vigilant in his heart.

These people can betray Cao Cao for their own interests, and they can also betray the court for their own interests. Besides, there are many people in this who have various relationships with Yuan Shao, after killing Cao Cao, won't Yuan Benchu be cheaper, right?

Although Yuan Shao is still in a stalemate with Gongsun Zhan, the balance of victory has slowly shifted to Yuan Shao's side. The reason is simple, the population under Yuan Shao was much larger than under Gongsun Zhan. In this day and age, population is the root of everything. The more people you have, the more food you can produce, and the more soldiers and horses you have.

In terms of fighting, Gongsun Chan is not worse than Yuan Shao, and it can even be said that he will be stronger, but his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, his internal affairs ability is really bad. After Liu Yu was killed, Yuan Shao hooked up with the Wuhuan people and formed a flanking situation against Youzhou.

Chen Cheng felt a little worried in his heart, thinking about whether he would make a wedding dress for others, but when he thought of the textile factories near Chang'an Du, some worries immediately disappeared without a trace. Hebei's manpower is more abundant than that of Guanzhong, but when it comes to the efficiency of manpower, there is still a distance between Yuan Benchu and him.

And he still has a lot of good things to come up with, and when those new technologies are lit up, it will not be a problem to push Hebei.

Thinking of this, the smile on Chen Cheng's face became even brighter. He sat down first, then straightened up, and asked: "Cao Cao is rushing back from Xuzhou with an army, but there are still three cities of Juancheng, Fanxian and Dong'e, and you are all heroes of Yanzhou, but what can be done?" ”

Juancheng, Fan County and Dong'a are all in the territory of Dong County, not far from each other. These three cities were garrisoned by Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Xiahoudun respectively. Xun Yu is a native of Yingchuan, and Xiahoudun is Cao Cao's brother, neither of them is a native of Dongjun, only Cheng Yu is from Dongjun, Yanzhou.

Chen Gong said: "Although there are still three cities to be built, there is nothing to worry about. As long as the general leads his troops to Xiaopei, blocks the road of Cao Mengde's return to the army, and forms a front and rear attack with Liu Yuanjun, he will definitely be able to break Cao Cao. When the soldiers and horses in Cao Cao's hands are defeated, Juancheng and other places, they will naturally surrender without a fight. ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present agreed.

When he was in Liangzhou, Chen Cheng made out chairs and tables, and after entering Chang'an, he also replaced the office with the kind of tables and chairs that were common in later generations. But Yanzhou's side is not popular with tables and chairs, and now Chen Cheng is kneeling on the floor, always feeling very uncomfortable.

But after hearing Chen Gong's suggestion, he immediately forgot that it was inconvenient to sit on the ground on his knees.

Chen Chengxin said: Chen Gong is worthy of being a local celebrity in Yanzhou, and although the strategy given is simple, it is very practical.

Cao Cao's biggest problem now is that the only three cities and the army have been cut off from each other, and they cannot be replenished continuously. If an army does not have a solid rear, it will become a rogue and will become weaker and weaker in constant battles. Now the general trend is on me, as long as I block Cao Cao's road to Dong'e, Juancheng and Fanxian, I have already won this game.

It's just that I want to do it or not?

Chen Cheng looked at Chen Gong's radiant appearance, and began to think in his heart. Before sending troops, he regarded Cao Cao as his biggest enemy and opponent, and he had to put the other party to death. But when everything went well, and after Yanzhou easily got started, he had other ideas.

The scholars in Yanzhou are so strong that even the state pastor can be overthrown. Do you want to take advantage of the battle with Cao Cao to use Cao Jun's knife to clean up some of the local scholars?

Everyone in the lobby was still discussing, Zang Hong, Zhang Miao and others had a good relationship with Cao Cao before, and although they betrayed Cao Cao with Chen Gong at this time, they just wanted to expel Cao Mengde from Yanzhou, and did not want to take his life. Chen Gong strongly opposed this naΓ―ve idea, and he exclaimed: "Cao Cao, the traitor of the world, is a tiger and wolf-like figure. If you don't die if you fight a tiger, you will definitely suffer from it! ”

The two sides held different opinions and began to argue loudly, but instead threw aside people like Zang Ba and Chen Cheng who had heavy troops in their hands. Chen Cheng pondered as he looked at the expressions of everyone in the hall. When he saw that Fa was angry, as if he wanted to say something, he shook his head at it, telling him to listen and watch more, but not to speak.

Now he has 20,000 people in his hands, Zang Ba has brought 30,000 people, and Yanzhou can also gather tens of thousands of people, which is about the same as Cao Cao in terms of troops. But there is not much food on both sides, and if they really want to borrow a knife to kill people, then Yanzhou is afraid that it will follow in the footsteps of Henan, and there will also be a tragic situation of "white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles".

And how can Cao Cao be easy to deal with? Although he is now in a dangerous and difficult golden land, it is difficult to guarantee that Boss Cao will not turn the tables. Uh, will you? Probably not........ bar. The surrounding princes are either too busy to take care of themselves, or they don't want to make a big move, theoretically speaking, Boss Cao has planted it this time.

Chen Chengxin said: The future matter will be dealt with later, and Cao Cao will be solved first.
