Xu Ding has not really entered the customs yet, and the earth of Youzhou has shaken.

It's like the return of the king, which makes people nervous, not to mention the local family in Youzhou, even Yuan Shao and Xu You are a little scared.

After all, they didn't know how many soldiers and horses Xu Ding had brought to Shanggu County, and how many people would go south.

Xu Ding has the main force of the ten major captains, as well as five guards.

The number of guards alone was as high as 40,000.

Moreover, the five guards have their own characteristics, all of them are elite, and they have made a great reputation.

Needless to say, the Divine Machine Rider has the highest attendance rate and the largest number of casualties.

The rain of arrows in the sky is terrifying.

The heavy cavalry of the Xuanjia Guard, swept invincible, unstoppable, rampage and crushed everything.

Mo Dao Guard, people move like a wall, knives move like thunder, destroy all the enemies that stand in front or rush in.

Although the reputation of the legal guards and guards is not as good as that of the other three guards, they are also brave troops, and they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

However, the next information sent back made Yuan Shao and the others feel deceived.

Xu Ding went south, but there was only one guard, and 7,000 soldiers rode south, and there were 1,000 left behind or recuperating at Juyong Pass.

There were only seven thousand horsemen.

"How is this possible, he just brought such a few people, he doesn't want Youzhou, he doesn't want to rely on these 7,000 people and the white horse army under Gongsun Zhan to scare our army out of Youzhou." Yuan Shao couldn't believe it when he heard the news, and laughed with contempt.

This Xu Ding really didn't take him seriously, and still wanted to drive him away from Jixian and Youzhou like Zhao Yun's thousands of horsemen captured Yecheng back then?

"Lord, the news is true, Xu Ding took seven thousand to the south, according to the news revealed by Gongsun Zan's subordinates, Xu Ding first took the Guiyi Army, the New Japanese Army and the Shenji to intercept the Xianbei army in the central part of the Great Wall, and then went south." Xu Yousheng was afraid that Yuan Shao would not believe it and doubt his intelligence system, so he said:

When he arrived in Shanggu County, he drew three or four thousand from Baimayi to Huang Zhong, and asked Huang Zhong to go to fight Liu Bei's department in Dai County. His divine machine rider also added more than 2,000 people from Baimayi, so that there were 8,000 people. ”

Yuan Shao asked, "Then what do you think he wants to do?" It is impossible for this person to defeat our Jixian, his cavalry does not bring any siege machinery, and Gongsun Zhan's men do not have decent siege equipment, but we have an advantage, and it is impossible for him to use cavalry as infantry. ”

"I can't see through it, I still can't see it through now, if his big forces haven't appeared yet, he must be put somewhere to concentrate together, so as to wait for us to be careless, and then punch hard." Xu Yu thinks he is smart, and he can't understand it at this time.

Xu Ding's use of soldiers has always been strange, changeable, fierce or ghostly, and it is really difficult to deal with.

In particular, he hid his heavy troops.

Xu You's eyes were still fixed on the coastal area of the map of Youzhou.

Only here is the most suitable and convenient for the Donglai army to attack.

But it's always been a little fight, and I haven't played it really.

This made Xu You also depressed.

"Forget it, no matter so much, the herald will be lured, if Xu Ding attacks Changping City, he must defend it and not be scared away, once he abandons the city, he will be finished, and I will support Changping when it is suitable." Yuan Shao didn't want to do so much, and waited for Xu Ding's next move.

Xu Ding either stormed Changping or crossed Changping to the south, and then raided the cities and counties with the advantage of cavalry, using the strategy of fighting if he could and wandering away if he couldn't.

After all, this is the most suitable tactic for cavalry.

Therefore, Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang and others to withdraw from Haixi, guard the right Beiping with foot soldiers, and return the cavalry.

Without cavalry, it would be very passive to contain Xu Ding and Gongsun Zhan's cavalry.

Then he asked the families of Youzhou and his generals to guard the cities, and not to engage in field battles with the Xuding cavalry, and it was best to force the Xuding cavalry to attack the city.

Whoever did it was promoted and awarded.

In short, it's one, try to break Youzhou, that is, to play siege warfare, every city must be defended, and every defense must be fought to the death.

It's just that the next Xu Ding did not go south in the military capital.

Only Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Army transmitted news in various places, and persuaded all cities and counties to submit to them, telling Yuan Shao's sinister intentions.

and also told everyone that Weihai Hou really didn't want to fight in order to retain more vitality in Youzhou, and hoped that everyone would drive away Yuan Shao and his army by themselves.

Otherwise, the war will be together, and Youzhou will be devastated, and it will be Youzhou and Youzhou's families who will suffer.

"Hahaha, Xu Ding, Xu Ding, do you think everyone feels as sorry for Youzhou as you do? If you want to change your course in a few words, you think too simply. When Yuan Shao heard the report, he couldn't help laughing, it was the first time since the war that he laughed so well.

The dull emotions that have been suppressed in Youzhou were vented.

But he didn't laugh for long, Xu You hurriedly walked in, changed his original confidence and pride, and rushed in recklessly with sweat.

"Lord, the big thing is not good, Jizhou is in a big trouble......"

"Ziyuan, what did you say? What happened to Jizhou? How can Jizhou be in trouble? Yuan Shao saw Xu Ding's gaffe like this, and his heart suddenly chuckled.

Xu You breathed a sigh of relief and then said: "Lord, Xu Dingbu attacked my Jizhou, and the second lieutenant army of Donglai stationed in Dongjun County, Taizhou, suddenly attacked my Qinghe County with a whole army, and surrounded Qinghe County with heavy troops, and then the eighth lieutenant army of his department attacked Anping State, took Xindu, and then Houhai Julu County, all parts of Jizhou rebelled, and countless Diao people besieged the county seat and township pavilion, and we lost contact with Yecheng. ”

"This ...... This...... How could Xu Ding fight Jizhou, didn't he just want to scare me, how could he really hit Jizhou. ”

It was expected that Zhang Fei and other troops would attack Yijing, and now the second captain army and the eighth captain army have also been dispatched.

Then the other captains don't have to go to Yecheng with this reason.

Yuan Shao is not a fool, Xu Ding's trick is too obvious, basically there is no need to guess.

He is eyeing Youzhou, but he is eyeing my hometown Jizhou and Yecheng.

"Poof!" Suddenly, Yuan Shaole was extremely sad, vomited blood, and fainted in front of him.

When he woke up, not only Xu Yu was by the bedside, but even the generals Wei Yuanjin, Zhao Rui and others were there.

"My lord! Are you finally awake? We don't know what to do without waking up. Wei Yuanjin and Zhao Rui looked scorched.

Yuan Shao looked at the candles lit around, raised his hand, and asked weakly, "How long has it been?" ”

Xu You replied: "The lord has gone into the night. ”

It's been a long time, and I'm not dazzled, but I've really lit the lamp.

"What's the latest?" Yuan Shao asked again.

Wei Yuanjin glanced at Zhao Rui and the others, but didn't dare to say.

Xu Yu also hesitated for a while, and then sighed and said: "Lord, Xu Ding's subordinate Cheng Yu led Xu Ding's right cavalry guard, avant-garde, and rearguard to attack the four counties of Yichang, Xinchang, Linxiang, and Fangcheng, blocking the passage between us and Yuantu and their southern line. ”

"Good...... What a big stroke, cutting off our army one by one, eating batch by batch, such a sharp technique. ”

Although only the four counties of Yichang, Xinchang, Linxiang and Fangcheng were lost, and the connection between Guo Tu, Zhang Jaw and Jixian County has not been completely separated, but Guo Tu, Zhang Jaw and others want to get in touch with him to go around in a circle, take the northern line Rongcheng and Fan Yang to Jixian County, and connect Jixian County from County to County.

In this way, whether it is to transmit information or transfer troops and horses to each other, it is twice the distance, and it is not very easy to walk there, it belongs to the mountain road.

This had too much impact on the battle situation, so Yuan Shao couldn't help but praise Xu Ding's plan.

This is called strategy, and this is called the classic reference of Ming Xiu plank road darkness Chen Cang.

If you don't accept it, you can't do it.

So now that Yuan Shao's skull hurts again, how can this bureau be broken?
