Just when the Qingzhou army in front was desperately trying to intercept the cavalry of the Cao army, while the Qingzhou army in the middle was assembling the team and deploying a defensive formation, suddenly countless crossbow arrows shot from behind him.

Many Qingzhou soldiers fell full of doubt, shock and anger, and the Qingzhou army, which was lucky not to die, turned to look behind them.

What they saw was a neat lineup, with a yellow scarf tied on their heads and yellow scarves on their arms, all of whom were holding crossbows in their hands and continuing to shoot crossbow arrows.

And behind them fell dozens of clerks and junior officers in the army, all from the Central Military Academy and the Central Army.

The commander of the battalion shouted, "Are you crazy? Kill your own people? Aren't you afraid of the military law of the military division? ”

It was Liao Hua's eerie voice that answered him, "Crazy? We're not crazy, how many yellow scarves and robes died in the hands of Lu Bu, what's so good about the military law of the Central Army? ”

"Now that I have defected to Lord Cao Cao, I can be the assassin of Qingzhou, take charge of the land of a state, and I don't have to be bound by that military discipline, I can do whatever I want, wouldn't it be happy?"

"If you know the times, put down your arms and surrender, I see the love of the Qingzhou army robe, save your lives, and those who don't surrender will be killed!"

It turned out that Guo Jia's internal response in the Qingzhou Army was Liao Hua, and the betrayal of the commander of the first army was of course a fatal blow to this army.

When a knife comes from behind, and it is a comrade-in-arms who has been fighting side by side for many years, that feeling of despair is heartbreaking!

Soon, with the cooperation of Liaohua's rebels, 40,000 Qingzhou Army infantry, 20,000 were killed, 20,000 were captured, and in the first battle of Zhengrong Valley, Cao's army completely wiped out the main force of the Qingzhou Army.

At this point, the hinterland of Qingzhou opened the gate to Guo Jia, and it was Liao Hua who guarded the gate who helped the enemy open the gate.

When the tiger-faced military division received the battle report of Liao Hua's mutiny, he spat blood in his mouth, and made thousands of calculations, but he did not calculate that someone would defect to the enemy, and he attacked his comrades behind his back.

After the loss of the main force of the 60,000 Qingzhou Army, 100,000 enemies suddenly appeared in front of them.

Qingzhou Army, in addition to Chen Zhi's 50,000 army, there are still 30,000 troops of Zang Ba who are far away in Taishan County.

Moreover, Liao Hua, who is familiar with the situation, will show them the way, and Cao's army will soon come to the hinterland of Beihai.

The first reaction of the tiger-faced military division was to send a message to Lu Bu Feige, and 100,000 people urgently asked for help.

Then it was necessary to mobilize all the troops in Qingzhou, including the reserve forces of the half-peasant and half-army, and the situation was critical, and they could not take care of it.

Immediately dismantle the equipment in the military workshops in Gaomi and other places, organize people to quickly relocate to Donglai and other places, and all skilled workers are also transferred.

The Qingzhou Army has grown and grown over the years, and the scale of the military industry has also grown, and there are many workshops in Gaomi and other places.

When Lu Bu received the news of the change in Zhengrong Valley, he severely reprimanded Li Su, who came to report the news.

This is a dereliction of duty on the part of the Ministry of Intelligence, a serious dereliction of duty on the part of the counterintelligence department of the Ministry of Intelligence, and the greatest disgrace in the history of the Ministry of Intelligence.

Cao Cao turned against the senior generals on his side, and launched a mutiny at a critical time, and the Ministry of Intelligence did not receive any trouble.

It was simply an unacceptable mistake to be ignorant of Cao Jun's contact with Liao Hua and the change in Liao Hua's ideological attitude.

Li Su reviewed to Lü Bu the serious dereliction of duty of his intelligence department in the Qingzhou army, and vowed to immediately and comprehensively rectify and strictly investigate the work of the entire counterintelligence department of the intelligence department.

Lu Bu knew that the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to say more, except to order Li Su to strengthen the intelligence work in Qingzhou, do the follow-up work well, and launch a counterattack against Cao Jun's intelligence agency, so as not to make them too complacent.

Lu Bu summoned Jia Xu, Fu Zhu, Gao Shun and others, and after discussion, quickly sent reinforcements to the Qingzhou and Jizhou battlefields.

The Central Army, this huge machine, immediately started with full horsepower, and military orders were issued through the Central Army Headquarters.

The Central Army was finally mobilized for the first time after the Battle of Tiger Pass.

Regardless of the actions of the Central Army, Guo Jia knew the truth of the speed of the soldiers, and he had Liao Hua to lead the way, and soon conquered Ju County and killed the hinterland of Beihai.

Liaohua's 20,000 rebels and Lejin's 10,000 cavalry opened the way ahead, and Guo Jia led the army to follow.

The Humian military division gathered all the troops that could be summoned to the county seat of Dongwu County, and fought against the water, because after that, there were Gaomi and Anqiu, and the training camp and military workshop were all here.

Because of Liaohua's rebellion, the relationship between the Qingzhou Army and the Central Army was no longer a secret, and the Tiger-faced Army Division decided to simply announce the change of banner, and Qingzhou returned to the jurisdiction of the central government in Chang'an.

The Qingzhou Army returned to the Central Army sequence, which also boosted the low morale a little, and all the territories and armies of the Qingzhou Army raised the banner of the Han Dynasty and the military flag of the Central Army.

It's too late to change the costumes, but everyone is given a red scarf to show the difference.

After receiving an urgent letter from the Tiger Mask Division, and facing the urgent military situation of 100,000, Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi discussed that the Qingzhou Army was mainly infantry, and the maneuvers were too slow.

For such a task as galloping to the aid of Tobu, it is better for the cavalry of the Central Army to go.

Zhao Yun personally led the 6th Cavalry Division and the 4th Cavalry Division to Beihai under the leadership of the guides sent by Chen Zhi.

At the same time, Zang Ba, who was responsible for guarding Taishan County, also led the main force of 30,000 Qingzhou Army to rush back to help.

Taishan County is very close to Beihai, so although Zang Ba is an infantryman, he is the last to arrive first, and he arrived at Langxie County before Zhao Yun, and he did not wait for Zhao Yun, so he marched to Dongwu alone.

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia, who was surrounded and sent reinforcements at the foot of Gonglai Mountain, was ambushed and made dumplings.

It has always been the tactics of the Central Army that used the tactics of encirclement to ambush others, but this time it was used by Guo Jia on himself.

Zang Ba's troops were almost completely wiped out, and only Zang Ba, who was familiar with the terrain, escaped from the encirclement with a small number of personal soldiers, and the Qingzhou army suffered another devastating blow.

The next thing was the expected development, the Dongwu Resistance Battle, the Qingzhou Army lost, and the Cao Army, which had an absolute numerical advantage, captured Dongwu in only one day.

Then it swept through Gaomi, Chang'an, Anqiu and other places, wreaked havoc on the military workshops and training camps that had not yet had time to be transferred, and seized a batch of new crossbows and armor.

The Humian Army Division commanded Lu Dai, Zhou Cang and other troops to take a large number of production equipment and skilled workers that had been dismantled, and moved to Jiaodong, Jimo Mountain, and even the seaside of Donglai, and held on to wait for help.

After Guo Jia swept through Gaomi and other places, destroying all the military workshops and training camps, he went to Linqu, where he set up an ambush and waited for the arrival of Zhao Yun's army.

After a series of battles in the early stage, the elite of the 80,000 Cao army also had a lot of attrition, Guo Jia still had more than 70,000 people left, and Liaohua's 20,000 people were left in Dongwu to protect the retreat of the Cao army.
