Yan Liang's hesitation was expected by Zhang Yu, such a good opportunity, a chance to annihilate Zhang Yu, how could Yan Liang give up easily.

If he doesn't give up, then Yan Liang will not withdraw his troops easily.

In this way, Zhang Yu can proceed to the next step.

When Yan Liang received the news, Liu Ye marched to Pinggu County with more than 30,000 troops, and on the way, Liu Ye joined some troops from other counties, but the total strength was only in the early 40,000s.

There are no other armies in the entire Yuyang County, and there are now 3,000 defenders in Jixian County.

There is no way, there is a war on the front line, and here is the hinterland, so there is no need to leave so many troops.

Liu Ye hurried to Pinggu County, he prayed that Pinggu County would not fall so soon, otherwise Yan Liang would be in danger.

But what Liu Ye didn't know was that all this was deliberately made by Zhang Yu.

After Huang Zhong came to converge, Zhang Yu ordered Huang Zhong to attack again, and this time Zhao Yun also attacked.

The two were ambushed in a place forty-three miles away from Pinggu County.

This is the main road, very open, and it was the most unsuitable place for ambushes.

But Zhang Yu just wanted to choose here, and he chose to be here not to take advantage of the enemy's surprise, but to be suitable for cavalry.

In the open field, the enemy can easily run away, but can they outrun the cavalry? They were all infantry, and the cavalry was all taken away by Yan Liang.

Yuan Jun, who was in his early 40,000s, had been on the road for three days, and finally approached Pinggu County.

"What sound?"

"Why did the ground shake?"

"Earthquake?"

The ground shook slightly, with a rumbling sound.

There was no reaction for a while.

"It's cavalry, it's cavalry."

Finally someone reacted, the ground shook, making them tremble slightly, many of these people are border people, have seen the cavalry of the grassland, know what this tremor means.

Liu Ye was shocked, there would be a large number of cavalry here, then there would only be the enemy.

Why are there enemies here? That is, there is an error in intelligence, Zhang Yu does not have 30,000 troops left, but more troops here.

Liu Ye is too guarded and doesn't know much about military affairs, but even if he understands at this time, there is not much difference, they can see a cavalry appearing in front and behind, rushing towards them.

Tens of thousands of cavalry, above this wilderness, without any protection, can be imagined, it is simply a massacre.

The cavalry easily tore through their defenses.

Liu Ye and the others couldn't even resist it, and they were chiseled through the formation as soon as they made contact.

Liu Ye was heartbroken and committed suicide.

The remaining more than 20,000 soldiers surrendered, and the rest died in battle.

This battle was fought very easily, the combat power of the two sides was not equal, and the combat strength of these second-line armies defending the city was not good, and there was no general to command.

Even if there is a general in command and it is a front-line fighting army, this battle must be defeated.

After cleaning up the battlefield and taking the prisoners, Huang Zhong and the others went to Pinggu County to report to Zhang Yu.

In fact, Zhang Yu had already received the news, and he was not surprised at all by this result.

"Hurry up and pack up, and we'll be off later." Zhang Yu is directing the shipment of supplies.

Dian Wei on the side asked, "Lord, where are these materials going to be transported?" ”

Dian Wei was very puzzled by Zhang Yu's busy shipping supplies all the time.

"It's all transported to Jixian County, we should be stationed there for a while, and we may have to shift our focus there in the future." Zhang Yu said.

went to Jixian County to garrison, Dian Wei didn't understand, so he didn't ask.

Jixian County, Zhang Yu really wants to shift the focus to the past, that is the Beiping of later generations, and the geographical location is naturally needless to say.

The most important thing is that if you want to attack the Central Plains in the future, you must be close to the Central Plains.

At this time, there were not many soldiers and horses in the entire Youzhou, and there were only thousands of soldiers and horses in Yuyang County, and they were scattered in several cities.

Zhang Yu immediately ordered Zhao Yun to take down Jixian County, and after the defeat, he would knock down the entire city of Yuyang County.

This is an easy task, it is nothing more than to run around, and Zhao Yun's light cavalry is just right.

And Zhang Yu led a large army, as well as a large number of prisoners and people, to transport supplies from Pinggu County.

He planned to stay in Jixian County for a period of time, and he needed a large amount of supplies.

The army was vast and stretched for dozens of miles, mainly because there were too many supplies.

When Zhang Yu was transporting supplies, Yan Liang finally got the news.

It was a bolt from the blue.

Pinggu County fell, and even the grain and grass that had been transported were looted.

More than 200,000 troops, although there are still a few days of grain and grass, but what should I do if these grains and grass run out?

Yan Liang didn't dare to reveal the news, once the soldiers knew, the situation was difficult to control.

Yan Liang sat alone in the big tent.

"How so? Why didn't Zhang Yu go to the rescue of Shenyang City? Yan Liang didn't understand, the Huns were Zhang Yu's great enemy, and now Liaodong was in danger, but Zhang Yu didn't seem to care at all.

In the past two and a half days, Yan Liang has not attacked.

The Liaodong army on the opposite side already knew what was going on, and Xi Zhicai, who had arrived, was already making preparations.

"It seems that the lord's plan has been completed, the lord's plan seems crazy, but it is relied on, although it is thrilling, but there is enough certainty." Xi Zhicai muttered to himself.

In fact, the focus of the entire battle situation is Shenyang City, as long as Shenyang City can withstand it, then the entire battle situation will not deteriorate.

For Shenyang City, Zhang Yu has enough confidence.

That's why Zhang Yu took the risk and didn't go to rescue Shenyang City, but sneaked into Yan Liang's rear.

"The whole army is ready to attack Yuan's army after nightfall." Xi Zhicai ordered.

The plan has entered a new stage, and Zhang Yu has also carefully arranged this stage, and he has to cooperate with him well.

At this time, Yan Liang also gave the order to withdraw the troops.

Things are like this, it is already very dangerous, Yan Liang does not dare not withdraw the army.

Yan Liang asked to withdraw in the middle of the night, but the Liaodong army, which had just retreated at night, took the initiative to attack.

"Conspiracy, conspiracy, this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy from beginning to end." Yan Liang yelled.

At this time, the Liaodong army took the initiative to attack, and the intention was too obvious.

Yan Liang had to withdraw his troops in advance, otherwise once he was dragged back, and then Zhang Yu and the others pounced from the rear, it would be dangerous at that time.

What Yan Liang didn't know was that Zhang Yu didn't intend to attack them back and forth at all.

"Leaving 50,000 troops to hold off the enemy, it must be held back for at least five days." Yan Liang ordered.

The opponent's troops, Yan Liang, knew that there were about 80,000 troops, and leaving 50,000 troops to block them could be delayed for five days.

Yan Liang began to withdraw the army, and the ordinary soldiers were confused by the order to withdraw the army, but Yan Liang did not dare to tell them the truth.

Yan Liang withdrew his troops, and Xi Zhicai was not surprised at all.

"Fifty thousand? It's not bad, slowly consumed, what we have is time. Xi Zhicai said with a chuckle.
