Liu Shi looked at Liang Mao: "What else is going on with Liang Jiang?" Why don't you report back to General Gongsun quickly, so as not to delay the military plane? ”

Liang Mao said: "Just now I thought that the general arrived in Liaodong in January, I thought that the general had already prepared to attack Liao, even so, the Youzhou army should have been hidden on the pearl islands." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info With the situation in Liaodong, the landing point should be in the subject country of Liaodong, or Liaodong Yushi County. The subject country of Liaodong will transport troops by sea ships, and the governor of Liaodong Yushi County is my good friend, I hope that the general will spare his life, and then I will write another letter. ”

Liu Shi's eyes widened, and his eyes burned: "Do you want to leak the military plane?" ”

Liang Mao was shocked: "No, I just sent a letter to the general, if the siege is blocked, please show it to the general, it may be useful." If he doesn't listen, I've done my friendship. ”

Liu Shi nodded and said, "Yes." Go with the army! After taking the Yu family, it is not too late for you to cross the sea and return to Lelang. ”

It turned out that Liu Shi kindly transported Gao Gan across the sea to return to Yuan Shang in Liaodong, but Yuan Shang did not expect Yuan Shang to snatch Liu Shilou's ship and detain Lou's boatman, and Hongjiang escaped back by luck.

Liu Shi was furious.

Jia Xu said: "Yuan Shang has no kindness, staying behind him will be a disaster, and there will be a lot of help, his strength cannot be underestimated, Gongsun Du is new, Yuan Shang must have designed to seize, once the plan is completed, the west of Linyu, Qingzhou and other places are the targets of his plundering and competition, please prepare as soon as possible." ”

Fa Zheng suggested that Yuan Shang should be eliminated directly, so as not to become a confidant.

He believed: "According to the news obtained from the Wuyan Division, the number of soldiers who can fight in Karasuma Wufuyan, Collapse, and Nanlou does not exceed 30,000, plus the soldiers of Yangle and Liaodong should be around 60,000, as long as it is properly planned, it will not be a problem to defeat Yuan." ”

Liu Shi saw that the two of them resolutely fought the main battle to punish the feud of the ship, Shi Jian thought: "Cao Cao is planning and preparing for the new emperor to ascend the throne, and there is no plan to capture Youzhou for the time being, and Cao's 150,000 troops are stationed in Qingdao and Hebei, and they dare not act lightly in the face of Hanoi, Youzhou, Qingzhou Yongzhou Army, Youzhou Army, and Qingzhou Army. It's just that attacking Liao lies in speed, and you can't fall into a stalemate for a long time. ”

Yuan Shang took away half of Liu Shi's boat, but Qingzhou and Yongnu are not short of boats, although they are small, they are more than enough, but there is nothing to do along the inner side of Pearl Island, and after Liu Shi's operation for several years, the roads of the small islands on Pearl Island have been maintained for a long time, and many islands have prepared some necessary living items.

Liu Shi's eyes were certain, the soldiers were divided into several roads, and the order was transferred from Bingzhou to 10,000 light cavalry, plus 20,000 in Youzhou, a total of 30,000 light cavalry and 40,000 foot soldiers went straight to Liaodong, of which 10,000 foot soldiers were elite pioneers, opening roads in the mountains and building bridges in the water.

Liu Shi stayed in Xu Wu for a lot of time, and he knew about the roads around him for hundreds of miles. Especially because he was worried about Xianbei and Karasuma attacking the city, he deliberately visited the surrounding terrain, and he knew that there was a road straight out of Liucheng in Liaoxi, but few people walked.

Originally, it was also possible to go out of the valley of Guangning, but there were many people in Karasuma and Xianbei on the grassland, and it was easy to leak the news, and tens of thousands of light horsemen had alarmed the entire grassland.

Gan Ning led more than a dozen large building ships and more than a dozen merchant ships with about 10,000 sailors to the Liaodong vassal state, attracting part of Yuan Shang's troops, covering the attack army to occupy Liaoxi and Liaodong vassal states, with a total of 80,000 people.

All this is being prepared in secret, and part of the army has already set off.

The news of Liang Mao's arrival made Liu Shi have to change his battle plan. After consulting with Fa Zheng and Jia Xu, the original force remained unchanged, but the 70,000 army to attack Liaoxi became 40,000 troops to cooperate with 10,000 naval troops to attack Liaoxi and Liaodong vassal states.

In addition, Liu Bao was sent to lead 30,000 troops along the inner side of Pearl Island to Liaodong Yushi, and after capturing Yushi, he then seized Pingguo and Wenxian County, and pushed all the way to Xiangping to join the other two armies.

Liu Feng and Li Tong were transferred to bring 20,000 Yongzhou troops to Youzhou to guard Zhuojun and Guangchang. The garrisons of Gaoyang and Lunu remained unchanged.

Liu Bao's 30,000 troops arrived in less than a month, under the persuasion of Liang Mao, Liu Yi, the captain of the city guarding the city, opened the door and surrendered, just as Liang Mao was about to leave the Lan family to pass Lelang, Liu Bao said: "Why don't General Liang attack Liaodong with us and make meritorious contributions to the Han Dynasty?" ”

Liang Mao was stunned for a moment and said, "What does General Liu mean?" ”

Liu Bao smiled and said, "Isn't it clear what I mean, General Liang?" Our army plans to leave Liaodong, and General Liang should guess how to reply to General Gongsun if General Liang returns to Lelang? ”

Liang Mao was stunned: "I ----" showed a bitter face.

Liu Bao said: "General Gongsun fled to Lelang, and there were not many soldiers and horses with him!" I wonder if there are 30,000? My lord has long decided that the land of Liaoxi and Liaodong can no longer be left to the princes to divide and Karasuma to raise horses. After the battle of Liaodong, this Liaodong will be taken over by Yongzhou, and Lelang, Xuantu, and Goryeo will also be recovered in the near future. General Liang is a smart man, what to do, I don't need to say! My master said that if General Liang is willing to defect to Yongzhou, he can appoint General Jianyong to the post of General Jianyong, I wonder if General Liang will accept it? ”

Liang Mao smiled bitterly, "Can I still choose?" ”

Then, Liu Bao looked at Liu Yi and said, "Captain Liu Yi!" My master also left a message that if Captain Liu Yi dedicates the city, he can appoint Captain Liu Yi as the general of Guiyi, act with the army, and then be promoted after meritorious service. ”

Liu Bao took the Yu clan, rested for a day, left 3,000 to defend the city, and immediately advanced to Pingguo, until Wenxian County, Yuan Shang found out, and hurriedly sent Guo Yuan with 30,000 troops to intercept it.

It's just that these 30,000 troops have just been incorporated into Gongsun Kang's department, and most of the generals immediately defected when they encountered Liu Yi and Liang Mao. Guo Yuan was caught off guard and rushed to Anshi surrounded by the defeated soldiers.

Liu Bao immediately made a decision, led the troops to chase wildly, Guo Yuan just arrived in Anshi, Liu Bao chased after him again, and the soldiers in the city opened the door and surrendered under the call of Liang Mao and Liu Yi. Guo Yuan fled to Xinchang again, this Xinchang is more coincidental, it is Liu Yi's hometown, the Liu family is the Xinchang family, hearing the defeat of the army Liu Yi defected to the Youzhou army, is chasing over, the head of the Liu family secretly prepared, as soon as Guo Yuan entered the city, he was captured, Yuan army except for some of the collapse, most of them surrendered.

Liu Bao heard that Xiangping was in front of him, and there were heavy troops of the Yuan army guarding him, so he did not dare to be careless, so he immediately reorganized the captured and surrendered Cheng troops, eliminated their old and weak, and re-selected the commanders, team leaders, and military marquis officials, and obtained more than 20,000 people in the Liaodong Army.

Subtracting the remaining troops in the five counties, there are still 40,000 brave soldiers in their hands.

Xiangping was being guarded by Yuan Xi, with 20,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 Karasuma light horsemen.

Liu Bao's army was like a bamboo, Yuan Xi was shocked in his eyes, Xiangping was on the yoke from the southeast of Liaodong into the subject country of Liaodong and the main road in northeast Liao, Yuan Shang ordered him to defend it.

At the beginning, Yuan Xi had advised Yuan Shang not to provoke Liu Shi, but Yuan Shang did not listen, thinking that it was now the spring and summer season, and the road in western Liaoning was difficult to walk, and he wanted to seize Liaodong and Xuantu counties, there were no building ships, and the transportation was extremely inconvenient. Moreover, Liu Shi came from afar, and the grain and grass were difficult to continue, so he had to withdraw after a long time.
