Chapter 262 Zhao Yun is stuck with the enemy

"Lead! You're doing a great job! I didn't expect you to be able to take these counties in just 20 days with only more than 30,000 people, I thought I could catch up with this Anping battle? Zhao Yun looked at it and praised it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao shook his head and said: "This time is not entirely my credit, most of the defenders in these counties are my subordinates when I was in General Yuan before, and many people immediately opened the city gate when they saw me." Only in Raoyang and Anping encountered a little trouble, and by the time I arrived in Raoyang, I had an army of nearly 50,000, plus those Hu cavalry, siege equipment, and trapped troops. Anping's reinforcements from Raoyang were ambushed by me again. Therefore, as soon as Rao Yang was raised, Anping's defenders ran away. ”

Zhao Yun stared at the trick and said secretly: "This trick is really a talent, but it's a pity that Yuan Tan doesn't know how to use people, and he refuses to use the opinions of those who have different intentions." What a pity! Cao Cao was therefore too easy to defeat and could not discover the military talents of Jizhou. This leader of the army to fight, it is extremely difficult to find in peacetime, only through war can it be revealed, some generals are incompetent, no matter how good the subordinates are, how can they show it? ”

He nodded and said, "You're good!" It can gather the hearts of the army and the hearts of the people! I'm going to give credit to the hussar generals for you! ”

After a pause, he said, "The front is Lecheng!" How do we do that? Tell me about it! ”

Qian Zhao thought for a while and said: "There are about 20,000 soldiers in Lecheng, more than 10,000 people in Huangpi, and I heard that Zhang Liao brought 30,000 troops, totaling more than 60,000 people. And our army began with an army of about 80,000, plus some supplements along the way, but the captured cities also need to be guarded, so that the number of troops I brought is about 120,000, and the ratio to Zhang Liaozhi is two to one. In the art of war, it is said that ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and two to fight. But if Zhang Liao does not defend the city, we will not be able to defeat it in a short time. ”

After a pause, he said: "It has been more than 20 days since our army attacked Changshan Zhang Yanbu, and Cao Hong's letter must have been delivered to Cao Cao as early as possible, even if Jiangdong is not down, he can send more than 100,000 troops over, which will be unfavorable to our army." It is better to transfer General Gan of Qingzhou, enter Zhangshui from the Haihe River to the final water, seize Nanpi, and then control the first line of Zhangshui, and trap Lecheng to death! In this way, even if Cao Cao's army comes, we can use Zhangshui as the boundary to confront him. ”

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "You are right, our plan is to confront Cao Cao with Zhangshui as the boundary first, but not to let General Gan come in along the coastal river and seize Nanpi, but to have General Gan directly attack Qingzhou, so that Zhang Liao has to retreat to Qingzhou." Otherwise, just wait for General Gan to capture Qingzhou, and then attack Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao should receive the news soon. ”

Zhao Zhao said suspiciously: "Has General Liu Bao also come to Qingzhou?" ”

Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "General Liu Bao didn't come, but he sent 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 foot soldiers. In addition, the lord sent the eldest prince to bring 5,000 elites from Chang'an, and it is said that these 5,000 people are not afraid even if they encounter Cao Cao's tiger and leopard battalion. ”

Led Zhao was shocked: "What? The eldest prince is also here? I heard that the eldest prince is only fifteen years old? ”

Zhao Yun nodded and said, "Hmm! But the martial arts are not bad! Like the lord is also born with divine power, after birth, Hua Zushi soaked in potion again, and practiced the internal skills of the five birds, and now the weight of the gun in the palm is said to be more than sixty pounds, and it is also learned the master marksmanship. ”

Zhao Zhao said suspiciously: "Does the lord want the eldest prince to train early, or does he want to fight with Cao Cao to determine the victory?" ”

Zhao Yun said: "The lord's family affairs, let's not talk too much, just do our own thing!" ”

At this moment, the guards came to report: "Zhang Liao has retired!" ”

"Are we going to chase?" ”

Zhao Yun said: "Of course you have to chase!" I have heard of General Zhang Liao for a long time, but I haven't seen it yet? How could he go away without seeing him? However, let's not push him too tightly, the lord also said that if it goes well, it is best to focus on Xiuxian County, hold the final water, connect the Bohai Sea in the east, and Qingzhou is bounded by the Yellow Water. If possible, send a group out of Mount Tai and Langya activities, so that Cao Cao could not be at peace, and had to divide troops to recruit and suppress. ”

"But!" Zhao Yun paused for a moment and said: "You and Peng Hu quickly led the army to occupy the area north of Zhongshui, after the capture, don't hesitate, quickly arrange defenses, check the passes, you are more familiar with this aspect, I hope you can withstand the counterattack of Cao Cao's reinforcement army, and I will wait for a while Zhang Liao, delay his return to Qingzhou, so that they can move the people faster." ”

"What? And to move the people? Pull Zhao said in surprise.

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "The lord said: Cao Cao's biggest advantage now is that he has a large population, and the people are the foundation of the army, and without the people, no one will farm the land and no one will serve in the military." And the biggest loss suffered by the Xinghan army was that there were no people, and this must be changed. ”

Draw was silent.

Zhao glanced at him and said: "You can rest assured about the relocation of the people, after the people come, not only can each person get a share of fertile land, but also tax exemption for one year, and the second year will be halved." The people can still help if they don't have food, and when they have food, they can slowly pay it back, and if it is really difficult, they can be exempted from some of it. ”

Hearing Zhao Yun say this, he exhaled softly, no matter what he said, he was also from Jizhou, and he didn't want to make the people of Jizhou complain.

He said softly: "The lord is really a compassionate person! ”

Zhao Yun nodded!

Zhao went to rush over with only 10,000 light horses, and Zhang Liao saw Zhao Yun coming, and hurriedly set up the camp and waited for it.

After Liu Shi controlled Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Liangzhou, he was not allowed to flow into Cao Cao's army, so that Cao Cao's light cavalry was used less and less, and he easily did not dare to use light cavalry to fight, so he could only think of it on foot.

Just like Liu Shi came out to deal with the volcanic tiger camp of light cavalry, Cao Cao also did much the same, and often brought antlers, strong crossbows, spears, etc. in the camp, just like a hedgehog, making the light cavalry unable to start. Every time the troops retreated, they also prepared some horn iron, iron thistles, and even deliberately made the surrounding area around the camp high and low, with potholes, so that the light cavalry did not dare to sneak attack.

Zhao Yun and Cao Jun have been fighting for several years, and Zhao Yun has long understood Cao Jun's skills, but he doesn't really want to fight with Zhang Liao, but wants to lie next to him like a pack of wolves, and go up to bite while the prey is not paying attention, forcing Zhang Liao to return to Qingzhou quickly.

Zhao Yundao: "I heard the name of General Zhang earlier, how can I say goodbye today?" ”

Zhang Liao said loudly: "The name of General Zhao, Liao is also like thunder, but your Yongzhou army took advantage of the prime minister's pacification of Jiangdong and came to attack my Jizhou and Qingzhou, which is indeed a bit unkind!" ”

Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Prime Minister Cao Cheng bullies the small with the big, is he kind?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "Sun Quan is a thief, and it is natural for the prime minister to coerce the king to conquer the thief!" ”

Zhao Yun smiled: "It's hard to decide who is the traitor!" So what's the matter with shooting the first emperor? ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion between the soldiers on both sides!

Zhang Liao said: "General Zhao don't bewitch the public, the prime minister has already made a conclusion, it is the traitor Dong Cheng, who wanted to coerce the first emperor to flee to Nanyang, but when he couldn't escape, he shot the first emperor with a poisonous hand, and the prime minister collapsed after failing to treat him." ”
