Chapter 246 Liu Biao seized Yulin on the day Yuan Shu occupied the South China Sea in January

Hearing the bad news, the entire cabin was silent for a long time, and then Liu Bei seemed to think of something, and then said, "What about Xingba?" Where is Xingba? ”

When Xun You heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Lord, when the messenger came over just now, he had already sent someone to the warship in front to invite Xingba!" ”

"Lord, it is said that there is a war report from Jiaozhou?" At this moment, Gan Ning shouted outside the cabin!

"Xingba is here, come in!"

Gan Ning walked into the cabin and saw that Xun You, Liu Bei and other generals were also uncertain, so he felt that the situation was a little bad, and he didn't say much!

And Liu Bei saw Gan Ning enter the cabin, so he hurriedly took Gan Ning's hand and asked, "Xingba, how long will it take to reach Zhuyazhou at the earliest?" ”

Although Gan Ning didn't know what to do, he could also see that everyone was in a hurry, so he hurriedly said: "At the current rate, it will take less than ten days!" If it is equipped with a full swinging oar, it can speed up by 50%! It's almost seven days away! ”

The 100,000 sailors under Liu Bei's command are mainly four-sail warships, and they only need the shipwright to control the sails when they sail in peacetime, and if they need to speed up the navigation, they need to be equipped with artificial rocking oars!

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, although he could only advance three days in advance, but even these three days were crucial, and then Liu Bei said:

"Xingba, a hundred thousand sail army may be a land battle? And what about the combat power of land warfare? ”

"Lord, as long as the lord gives an order, the 100,000 sail army can abandon the ship and fight on land, although it is not the elite under the lord's command, but it is not inferior to the ordinary soldiers!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed and ordered: "All the warships are equipped with rocking oars, and then advance towards Zhuya Prefecture at full speed, and at the same time order Su Feiling, who is stationed in Yizhou, to lead the remaining 50,000 Jin Fan troops to also rush to Zhuya Prefecture!" ”

In the end, Liu Beicai led Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Yuan Shu of Yangzhou and Zhu Fu to attack Jiaozhou with 450,000 troops, and Jiaozhou is now in flames of war!

Gan Ning was also shocked after hearing this, and then said slowly: "Lord, the previous military advisor (Xizhong) has already begun to send a large army to Jiaozhi County, and is ready to attack Nanzhong as soon as the lord arrives.

Therefore, there are not many defenders in the four counties of Nanhai County, Yulin County, Hepu County and Cangwu County, only Nanhai County guards against Yuan Shu's 50,000 troops, and Yulin County, Cangwu County and Hepu County together only have 50,000 troops!

In this way, how can you resist an army of 450,000? ”

Xun You and Liu Bei also knew about these situations for a long time, but they had never been in Jiaozhou, so they didn't have an intuitive impression at all!

Gan Ning didn't wait for Liu Bei and the others to speak, but continued: "Previously, Zhu Fu was in Yulin County, so Yulin County didn't have many defenders, and now Zhu Fu is also making peace with Liu Biao and Yuan Shu, so the entire Yulin County will not be able to fall into the hands of Liu Biao and Zhu Fu in a few days!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Bei and Xun You felt terrified, in just a few days, the entire Yulin would fall! Doesn't that mean that after Liu Bei arrives in Zhuya Prefecture, Yulin will not be owned by Liu Bei!

In the daily worry, Liu Bei and his entourage finally arrived in Zhuyazhou, at this time, Xi Zhong, Guan Yu, Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun were already waiting for Liu Bei in Zhuyazhou!

As soon as Liu Bei got off the boat, Xi Zhong took the first step and said: "Lord, Zhong is guilty of failing to investigate the abnormalities of Zhu Fu, Liu Biao and Yuan Shu first, resulting in this big defeat!" ”

"What is the crime of Zhicai, I didn't find out at this time, and Cao Cao and Sun Ce sent 200,000 troops to contain Nanyang, and we couldn't analyze that it was actually related to Jiaozhou at this time!

Moreover, this time, it was Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Zhu Fu, Liu Biao and Yuan Shu who conspired with me to Jiaozhou, not the crime of war, but that I Liu Bei was too conceited, thinking that no one in the world knew that Jiaozhou was obtained by me!

If you say that you are guilty, it is the crime of my Liu Bei, and it has nothing to do with you, but this time it has hurt the people of Jiaozhou! Now where are Liu Biao, Zhu Fu, and Yuan Shu? ”

When Xi Zhong heard this, he led everyone to the front of the map that had been prepared a long time ago, and then said: "Lord, look, now Liu Biao is proud of Zhu Fu's help, and he has all won Yulin County.

The county magistrates of Yulin County, who had previously returned to the lord, all turned against Zhu Fu again, as long as Zhu Fu carried the appointment of the Jiaozhou Pastor of the Son of Heaven!

However, the 10,000 guards who were originally stationed in Yulin County were saved due to the secret report received in advance, and now they are stationed in Hepu County together with the defenders of Hepu County!

Although Liu Biao quickly occupied Yulin County, which has a lot of mountainous areas, within ten days, he also had a conflict with Zhu Fu, and did not march into Hepu County at this time, but sent 50,000 forwards to the junction of Yulin County and Hepu County to prevent our counterattack! ”

Liu Bei also nodded when he heard this, and said: "At this time, the situation is not too bad, if Lianpu County is also lost, then it will really be almost half of Jiaozhou!" What about Yuan Shu's army? ”

"My lord, the progress of Yuan Shu's army is close to that of Liu Biao's army, because Wei Chi Zhan led an army of 50,000 troops to garrison Nanhai County, so Yuan Shu's first march into Nanhai County was met with some resistance.

However, because Yuan Shu did not have the elbows of others, the march was also rapid, and because there was no internal response, even if Wei Chi's troops were defeated and withdrew from Nanhai County, Yuan Shu would need half a month to take Nanhai County at this time!

Now, Wei Chizhan has led the remnants of the army to retreat to Cangwu County, and the 20,000 defenders in Cangwu County are together, a total of 40,000 troops are ready to resist Yuan Shu's army with Cangwu County! Xi Zhong continued!

Liu Bei nodded, and then asked, "Where is the army that Jiaozhi County previously dispatched in the past?" ”

Xi Zhong thought for a while, and then said: "It's still in Jiaozhi County, but at the junction of Jiaozhi County and Yulin County!" And it is led by Gao Shun and Chen Zhi, because they are all elites, so even if Liu Biao leads the city's 50,000 troops, there is no big problem for the time being! ”

Liu Bei listened to Xi Zhong's words. Then he thought about it and nodded, and finally said slowly: "In this way, we have to rely on 100,000 Jinfan troops and 70,000 county soldiers to defend Hepu and Cangwu counties. So it seems a bit stretched! ”

Seeing Liu Bei say this, Xun You also opened his mouth to remind: "Lord, with a 170,000 army stationed in two counties to defend the 450,000 army, there is no doubt that you will be defeated."

Even if Liu Biao's 150,000 army attacked Jiaozhi County and attacked Hepu County, Cangwu County's army was only 300,000, which was extremely dangerous!

Because the 170,000 soldiers are not absolutely elite, it is very difficult to defeat one against two in the case of low morale! ”

Liu Bei didn't know, but he didn't want to admit it: "I don't know, but there is no other way at this time, Jiaozhou and Yizhou don't border the six northwestern states at all, even if they meet, the six northwestern states can't transfer soldiers!" And how many of the 100,000 defenders of Yizhou can be transferred to Jiaozhou? ”

"My lord, the 100,000 defenders of Yizhou can only send 40,000 into Jiaozhou, and I have already written to Xianhe to talk about this before, but it will take half a month to arrive in Jiaozhou.

Lord, at that time, if Yizhou wants to recruit young people at this time, he can still recruit some of them, but he can sign up to 50,000 young people in a month, and his combat power is worrying! Xi Zhong thought about it and said!!

"Hey, even so, it is unknown whether Hepu County and Cangwu County can withstand half a month or a month!" Xun You said helplessly!

At this time, there was a brief silence at the scene, as if everyone was at a loss, only Xi Zhong was grunting around his glasses, as if he was thinking about whether he should say his thoughts!
