The four hundred and ninety-sixth round, the competition between the two sides
Xu Zhihao wanted to take Yancheng, he saw that it was difficult for 50,000 horses to take Yancheng, he wanted to transfer 30,000 soldiers from Xuzhou, but before he could transfer 30,000 soldiers, he was killed by Li Cunba and Li Cunxiao, and he injured 30,000 horses.
Xu Zhihao was defeated, and the 30,000 horses he transferred from Xuzhou arrived.
When Xu Zhihao saw the 30,000 horses, he almost laughed.
Xu Zhihao said: I just transferred 30,000 horses from Xuzhou, and I lost 30,000 horses.
******
At this time, Xu Zhihao thought about what to do in the future?
Whether to continue to fight Yancheng, or Huainan, or go back to Xuzhou, or go back to Wu.
Yancheng and Huainan are the throat roads leading from Wu to Xuzhou, Yancheng and Huainan Xuzhou have fallen into the hands of Li Cunqiao, Xu Zhihao wants to go back to Wu, can he go back?
You can go back.
Xu Zhihao wanted to go back to Wu, and he could completely bypass the edge of Yancheng or Huainan.
As soon as Yancheng and Huainan were lost, Xu Zhihao wanted to continue to fight north, but he didn't dare, because the grain route for transporting grain had to pass through Yancheng or Huainan, but he wanted to go back to Wu, and he could still go back.
Of course, the premise for Xu Zhihao to bypass from Yancheng or Huainan must be that there are not many soldiers in Yancheng or Huainan, and if Guo Chongtao's troops come back, if there are 100,000 troops in Yancheng and Huainan, it will be very difficult for Xu Zhihao to bypass.
Couldn't Xu Zhihao's grain road be spared from the edge of He or Huainan?
No.
If you want to spare the edge of Cai or Huainan, if there are a lot of people, Li Cunxiao and Li Cunba will not dare to come out, and if there are not many people, Li Cunxiao and Li Cunba will dare to come out.
There are generally not too many people in charge of grain.
******
Let's talk about Xu Zhihao alone.
Xu Zhihao thought to himself: What will I do in the future? Continuing to fight north? No, because Yancheng and Huainan are in the hands of Li Tang, and it is difficult to continue to transport grain to the north. Back to Xuzhou? No, it doesn't. When I go back to Xuzhou, I have nothing to do and sit still! It doesn't work to go back to Wu State, Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun didn't come back to Yanzhou!
Xu Zhihao thought for a while: I have to continue to fight Yancheng!
Xu Zhihao led people to fight Yancheng again.
*****
Xu Zhihao led the people forward, but he was also empty.
Xu Zhihao said: Last time I didn't get Yancheng with 50,000 horses, I was defeated last time, and this time I can get Yancheng with 50,000 horses?
Xu Zhihao still thought in his heart: I have to wait for Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun to return to the army? I can't leave Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun there? I'm just going back to Wu. I have to at least wait for Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun to return to the army, and then we will return to Wu together!
******
Let's talk about filial piety.
When Li Cunxiao heard this, Xu Zhihao came back again.
Li Cunxiao was happy.
Li Cunxiao asked the reporter: "How many people did Xu Zhihao bring?" ”
The messenger said, "He has brought 50,000 horses." ”
Li Cunxiao said: "I don't hear, did he injure 30,000 horses, how can he still have 50,000 horses?" ”
The reporter said: "He transferred another 30,000 horses from Xuzhou. ”
Li Cunxiao said: "He can really toss! ”
Li Cunxiao saw that Xu Zhihao's people were here again, and he actively defended the city.
Li Cunxiao didn't dare to be careless at all, Xu Zhihao's people were two and a half times that of him, did he dare to be careless?
******
Let's talk about Li Cunba.
Last time, Li Cunba and Li Cunxiao joined forces, and he killed Xu Zhihao to a big defeat.
Subsequently. Li Cunba went back to Huainan.
Li Cunba's first task is to guard Huainan, and there can be no accidents in Huainan!
Soon after Li Cunba returned to Huainan, he went to Xu Zhihao to get the news of Yancheng again.
When Li Cunba heard the news, he was almost happy.
Li Cunba said: Xu Zhihao can really toss!
Li Cunba thought to himself: I still have to help Li Cunxiao, and I will harass Xu Zhihao again.
Li Cunba led the soldiers and went again.
******
After Li Cunba went, he and Li Cunxiao killed Xu Zhihao again.
This time, Xu Zhihao injured 10,000 horses.
This is still due to the last incident Xu Zhihao had already taken precautions, otherwise he would have lost a lot of people.
******
At this time, Xu Zhihao was really worried: continue to fight Yancheng. Li Cunba is old and makes trouble. I want to fight Yancheng again, and Li Cunba will make trouble again. I've got a lot to lose!
Xu Zhihao thought for a while: I'd better go back to Xuzhou and wait for Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun. After Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun's men and horses come back, I will think of countermeasures.
Xu Zhihao has returned to Xuzhou again.
Xu Zhihao walked in the direction of Xuzhou, and he was panicked.
Xu Zhihao said: Why am I such a waste! I can't compare to Guo Chongtao, how can I not even compare with Li Cunba and Li Cunxiao!
******
After Xu Zhihao returned to Xuzhou, he was not worried about Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun's affairs.
Xu Zhihao thought to himself: Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun will be fine, right?
Xu Zhihao also understood: If Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun don't come, he will inevitably bring Guo Chongtao's brigade together.
Xu Zhihao waited anxiously.
******
How are Xu Tianci and Xu Tianshun now?
Xu Zhihao sent Xu Tianshun to fight Yanzhou. After he heard that Guo Chongtao's team had gone to the direction of Yanzhou, he sent Xu Tianci to pick up Xu Tianshun.
Xu Tianshun and Xu Tianci each received their orders.
******
Let's talk about Xu Tianshun first.
Xu Zhihao sent Xu Tianshun to lead 50,000 horses to take Yanzhou, and Xu Tianshun took people to the direction of Yanzhou.
Xu Tianshun also fought and walked along the way.
As soon as you look at the map, you will know that there is a distance between Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and Xuzhou to Yanzhou has to pass through many small counties.
Although there are not many people in the small county town. It's a bit of a task to get through.
When Xu Tianshun arrived in Yanzhou, Yanzhou had already received the news and was already ready.
******
The guard general of Yanzhou is called Ning Zhong.
Ning Zhong is the defender of Yanzhou and the prefect of Yanzhou.
After Ning Zhong heard the news, he actively made preparations.
Ning Zhong's active preparations were to strengthen the city and gather men and horses, and prepare bows and arrows and other things to defend the city.
Xu Tianshun brought 50,000 soldiers, but Yanzhou only had 1,000 soldiers, how could he do it without gathering people?
Why is there only a thousand soldiers in Yanzhou?
Because Yanzhou is an internal city, there is generally nothing to do.
The inner city cannot be defeated by ordinary enemies, which is a special case.
Under normal circumstances, it is to catch a thief or something, and it doesn't take so many people.
When Ning Zhong heard the news that Xu Tianshun's army was coming to his Yanzhou, he gathered four thousand men.
******
On this day, Xu Tianshun's men and horses came to Yanzhou.
Xu Tianshun led his men to Yanzhou, and he attacked Kaicheng.
When Ning Zhong, the general of Yanzhou, saw that Xu Tianshun's men were coming, he actively defended the city.
It's not easy to hold Yanzhou!
First, Ning Zhong is not as famous as Xu Tianshun, Xu Tianshun is one of the top ten famous masters, and Ning Zhong can't even rank among the top 30 masters.
Second, Ningzhong does not have as many people as Xu Tianshun, there are only 5,000 people here in Ningzhong, and there are 50,000 people in Xu Tianshun, and Xu Tianshun's people are ten times that of Ningzhong.
*******
Ning Zhong saw that Xu Tianshun's men and horses were coming, and he actively defended the city, and at this time, something happened to him here. (To be continued.) )
