PS: I found out that the chapters of the first few chapters were all written incorrectly. It should be seventy-one, seventy-two, seventy-three, and seventy-four, and this time six-seven-five. But fortunately, it didn't affect too much, and the content was still fine. The name of the chapter is wrong, and I can't change it, so I can only say sorry to the book friends who have questions......

Yuan Shao saw that the soldiers of his Jizhou army were retreating one after another, and he was really anxious. Although he also shouted that no one was allowed to retreat, and he also killed a few retreating soldiers with his own hands, but it did not play its due role at all.

Gao Ran next to him saw this situation, and he said at this time: "Lord, now our army can't resist the Yanzhou army, so it's better to make plans early!" ”

When Yuan Shao heard this, he understood that Gao Ran almost said directly at this time that now that his side was already in the general trend, he was about to lose. But Yuan Shao also knows this, but he is just unwilling, this, is it really going to be defeated tonight? Their own Jizhou army has so many more men than their Yanzhou army, but, but how can it be like this?

Recently, Yuan Shao has received blows one after another, and he was not in good health, but the result was that he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and he almost didn't fall off the horse, but fortunately, Gao Ran was quick to see and quickly stepped forward to help his lord.

Yuan Shao said helplessly and weakly: "Withdraw, withdraw the troops, retreat to Liyang." ”

"No!" ——

Cao Cao saw that victory was in sight for his side, so he immediately ordered his army to charge, striving to defeat the enemy immediately. Yes, we have been fighting for so long, and we have been fighting since it was dark until dawn, and our side is about to win. Cao Cao is indeed in a good mood.

And he had already seen Cao Chun who came to him, and as for Guan Yu, he led the troops to fight. Cao Chun told his lord about the situation of the first death soldier who had encountered Koji Yi before.

When Cao Cao heard this, he also had to sigh that there was indeed a certain gap between his own elite and the world-famous elite. However, the elite of his own side has not been established for a long time, so there will be a lot of development in the future, and as for the first death of Koji, he has not been able to beat others now. If you have a chance later, if you meet again, you will win them sooner or later.

Cao Cao is still very confident in this, after all, he has an advantage now, so of course he wants to take the opportunity to make a move. Defeat the Jizhou army.

However, after seeing that the Jizhou army had retreated, Cao Cao did not continue to pursue. for he knows the word. The Jizhou army retreated. It will do you more good for yourself, but if you pursue, it will not do you much good. Because the Jizhou army is now in short supply of grain and grass, the more people they have, the more serious the problem of grain and grass will be, and the more beneficial it will be to themselves. That's it. Therefore, after Cao Cao saw the retreat of the Jizhou army, he gave up and continued the pursuit, which is unwise. Or hurry up to clean up the battlefield is your first priority-

Cao Cao defeated the Jizhou army in Guandu, and after that, on the one hand, he was preparing to cross the Yellow River and enter Liyang, and on the other hand, he had already ordered people to transfer troops from Yanzhou and Xuzhou to Qingzhou.

Originally, at the beginning, Cao Cao wanted Xiahoudun to be stationed in Guandu to guard against Yuan Shao's Jizhou army, but asked Cao Ren and Cao Hong to lead troops into Qingzhou. However, after Yuan Shao directly led his troops to cross the Yellow River, Cao Cao couldn't sit still, and directly led the army to Baima, and then stationed in Guandu. At this time, he had already exchanged Cao Ren and them back, let Cao Ren and Cao Hong return to Guandu, and let Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan transfer troops in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, ready to attack Qingzhou at any time.

After all, Cao Cao has always focused on Guandu, so he didn't care much about Qingzhou. But although he didn't let the Xiahou brothers attack Qingzhou directly, Cao Cao asked the two of them to pay close attention to Qingzhou's movements, so the two of them watched Yuan Tan in Qingzhou to death, as long as he made a little move, he would definitely let them know the way, so the Xiahou brothers did contain Yuan Tan in Qingzhou, and Cao Cao was more at ease in the decisive battle with Yuan Shao in Guandu.

And after Guandu won, Cao Cao knew that it was time for the Xiahou brothers to enter Qingzhou. When the soldiers heard the news of their victory, they must have high morale, so the two of them brought the people with high morale to attack Qingzhou, which was definitely not a problem. It's not that Cao Cao underestimated Yuan Tan, it's really that there are really no people in Qingzhou, of course, if it weren't for his hurry to let Cao Ren and Cao Hong rush back to Guandu, then maybe some of Qingzhou would have fallen into his hands now.

But at this time, it is not too late to send troops, for Cao Cao, he knows that Ma Chao is against Qingzhou, even if he wants to get it, but he can't reach it. Therefore, Qingzhou must be in his own pocket, and after taking Qingzhou, he can immediately go north to take Youzhou, while he will deal with Yuan Benchu's Jizhou army in Jizhou, and strive to win more territory in Jizhou. At least you can't let Jizhou all be snatched away by Ma Mengqi, so isn't that equivalent to making a wedding dress for others.

In fact, Cao Cao was quite right, for Ma Chao, he had never thought about Qingzhou. As for this state, he actually knows that even if he can occupy it now, it is not suitable for him to occupy it. In the final analysis, this place has to be Cao Cao's territory more suitable. For Ma Chao today, what he said to do is to strive to win more territory in Jizhou, which is his top priority, because Jizhou is actually very important to both himself and Cao Cao-

And just when Cao Cao led his troops to cross the Yellow River, and the other side let the Xiahou brothers enter Qingzhou, Ma Chao had already led his troops into the boundary of Jizhou and went straight to Changshan Country.

The counties of Jizhou are not the same as those of Jizhou, and there are only a few people in the entire state of Jizhou, while the least of a county in Jizhou is more than 100,000 people, or where did Yuan Shao get hundreds of thousands of horses. You see, there may be hundreds of thousands of horses in that place? Before, there were nearly 100,000 people, and they had a lot of burdens there.

Although it was after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and then Yuan Shao added a lot of burden to the people of Jizhou, but it is really "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse", and now Jizhou is still one of the largest states in the world. It is still one of the most populous states. The population of the county is also one of the best, and if you take out a county, it is a big county in the world.

Because of this, whether it is for Ma Chao or Cao Cao, it is a must for Jizhou. After all, in troubled times, what do you rely on, anyway, population must be an indispensable thing.

In the romance, why did Liu Bei cross the river with the people? Take the people of Xinye to Xiangyang? Of course. You said that Liu Bei had the intention of buying people's hearts, but in fact, it was just a small aspect. In fact, in the final analysis, it is because the population is important because the people are indispensable.

And in this regard, Liu Bei knows in his heart that no matter where he goes. As long as you bring tens of thousands of people, then your own power will increase. There are definitely a lot of benefits for yourself. So he wanted to cross the river with the people, but he thought too well, and the result was not very good-

This time, Ma Chao still brought an army of 100,000, and the people under him, he brought Dian Wei, Ma Dai, Lei Tong, Wu Yi, Wu Ban, Gao Pei, Deng Xian, Wei Ping, Guo Jia and Liu Ye, mainly from the previous Yizhou family. As for Huang Quan. stayed in Bingzhou, and Yan Yan and Meng Da were still in Sili. As for these people, they didn't come to the state before. Ma Chao specially asked them to come over, and by the way, he brought 50,000 Liangzhou troops to Bingzhou.

After everyone arrived, Ma Chao took them with 100,000 soldiers, and the rest of the people and soldiers stayed in Bingzhou, and they set off towards Changshan Country in Jizhou.

Ma Chao led the troops to the city of Jingcheng, and the Liangzhou army set up camp under the city and began to rest-

Jingcheng City was the first city that Ma Chao personally led his army to attack. In Changshan country, Ma Chao personally led the army to capture three cities, Jingcheng, and then marched southeast to calm down, and then went south to take Gaoyi. These three cities are the three cities that Ma Chao must take, and these three cities are also the three cities with the strongest military strength in Changshan State, Jingcheng has more than 10,000 county soldiers, and there must be nearly 10,000 Jizhou troops, nearly 10,000 county countries, and 20,000 Jizhou troops in Gaoyi.

It should be said that one is more difficult to win than the other, so Ma Chao has to pay attention to it. At that time, Changshan Kingdom, as a relatively important county in Jizhou, could be said to be such a place that Ma Chao had to take. And this place is still adjacent to Bingzhou, so it is impossible for Ma Chao to let Changshan fall into Cao Cao's hands, so in the first battle, Ma Chao is ready to fight in Changshan's Jingcheng-

The guard general of Jingcheng, Ma Chao still knows, although it is not that he is particularly familiar, but he has indeed seen it before, that is, when the princes were discussing Dong, Ma Yan who led the Jizhou army to attack the city.

They are all surnamed Ma, and Ma Chao still knows him, although I don't know how Lu Dao Ma Yan asked Yuan Shao to arrange for him to guard the city here. But no matter who guards the well, Ma Chao is also bound to win this place.

Originally, Ma Yan had nothing to do in Jingcheng, and everyone was fighting against the Yanzhou army in Guandu, so he became a defender of the city, and he was quite unwilling in his own heart. Although he also knew that this Jingcheng City in Changshan was a relatively important place, he didn't think that anyone could kill him at once.

As a result, things really came out of his expectations, and when Ma Chao led his troops into the state, Ma Yan didn't feel anything. After all, this matter is normal for him Ma Mengqi. But when Ma Chao took down Jinyang, Ma Yan was already more worried, after all, Bingzhou and Changshan are adjacent to each other, and Changshan Jingcheng has a very important geographical location. So after he Ma Mengqi took the annexed state, he was in the city...... (To be continued......)
