Chapter 163: Surround Yingchuan

Ye Chen and the others rested for a few days, and the follow-up reinforcements from the imperial court arrived, and Huangfu Song had enough troops to prepare to start attacking Yingchuan.

At this time, Yingchuan, Bo Cai was stepping up the defense there, although he fled, leaving his life, but his elite was lost, although there are still hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans in Yingchuan City, but Bo Cai does not have a little confidence, because most of these hundreds of thousands are old and weak, and there are only less than 20,000 people who really have combat effectiveness.

In order to defend Yingchuan, Bocai also asked Peng Tuo to continue to go to the rear to mobilize people, which shows how much pressure Bocai has.

"General Jianwei, this attack on Yingchuan, you have to be the vanguard." After the imperial reinforcements arrived, Huangfu Song began to arrange tasks.

Because Ye Chen was not under the command of Huangfu Song, he was quite polite to Ye Chen, and said in a consultative tone.

Ye Chen is very good at reconnaissance, and he is a good candidate for the pioneer, so Huangfu Song asked him to be the pioneer.

"Okay, General Huangfu, please rest assured, I will definitely complete the task in the future." Now that the Yellow Turban's elite is wiped out, this task is actually very easy, even if the Yellow Turban dares to ambush, it may not have the ability to ambush him.

Ye Chen's scouts are scattered for dozens of miles, and Ye Chen's requirements for them are very high, there is no problem of dereliction of duty, even if the scouts are killed, with Ye Chen's vigilance, the scouts do not come back within the specified time, and they will continue to march after investigating clearly.

"Okay, Captain Cao will go straight to Yingchuan with our army." Huangfu Song did not arrange the middle army and the rear army, and directly pressed them all, and he didn't think that the Yellow Turban still had the ability to ambush halfway, even if there were, tens of thousands of people together, the Yellow Turban would not be able to eat.

After proper arrangement, Ye Chen set off half a day in advance to explore the way for the army and find a camp, so that the army could directly set up camp after arriving.

Ye Chen arrived outside Yingchuan City all the way very smoothly and sent the news back. After arriving in Yingchuan, Ye Chen was not in a hurry to attack, and the matter of attacking the city was still waiting for the arrival of the army.

After arriving outside Yingchuan City, the yellow turbans in the city began to stir, and this cavalry left a huge shadow on their hearts.

Bo Cai also hurried up to the city wall to check, but he knew the power of this cavalry, and saw that the cavalry did not attack the city, which made Bo Cai feel a little relieved, looking at Yingchuan City with a city wall to block, so that Bo Cai had a trace of confidence, otherwise he really couldn't afford to have the courage to fight in the face of this cavalry.

Tens of thousands of people can't help him, and now that the elite is lost, what else can he fight with the other party.

Bo Cai looked at the cavalry below, and was extremely resentful, that is, they let themselves lose their elites, otherwise they would burn their own people to death by a single fire, and they could still have tens of thousands of elites, and when the time came, they could reorganize their morale and kill them back.

But all this was wiped out in this cavalry, and his elite was lost, especially the eight thousand Yellow Turban wrestlers, and now there are only about a hundred people left, and the current Bocai has no confidence to hold Yingchuan.

Two days later, Huangfu Song arrived with a large army, and as soon as he came, he first surrounded the entire Yingchuan City, and after the encirclement, Huangfu Song did not rush to attack.

Huang Fu Song convened a meeting in the big tent, and when Ye Chen arrived, he actually saw Huang Fu Song's deputy general in the big tent.

"General Xie Jianwei's life-saving grace." When the sect member saw Ye Chen coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

Now that his injuries have healed, after the defeat of the Yellow Turban, he took his subordinates back to the Changshe to find Huangfu Song, who listened to what the sect members said, knew that Ye Chen saved them, and was also very grateful to Ye Chen.

Huang Fu Song's promotion of the Ye family also brought Guo Jia, originally Guo Jia was not qualified to attend the meeting, but Ye Chen was not controlled by Huang Fu Song, and Huang Fu Song couldn't control it. As for Tai Shi Ci and Guan Yu, Ye Chen didn't bring them, let them lead the army.

"Now that tens of thousands of our soldiers and horses are surrounding Yingchuan, although a battle can be fought, Song also wants to hear your opinions." Emperor Fu Song has a great grasp of this battle, so it can be said that a battle can be played.

"Now that the elite of the Yellow Turban is lost, our four gates are attacking, the Yellow Turban is bound to be flawed everywhere, looking for its weaknesses, a fierce attack, the city will be broken." After Huangfu Song finished speaking, Cao Cao stood up and said.

Huang Fu Song smiled and nodded, indicating that he agreed with this strategy. Cao Cao's strategy is really good for the current situation, the Yellow Turbans have no elite, their combat effectiveness is not strong, the four gates are attacking, they will not be able to cope with it immediately, there will be many flaws, it is easy to break through at this time.

As long as the city is attacked, then it will not be difficult to destroy the Yellow Turbans. Several other people also agreed with Cao Cao's strategy from their expressions.

Ye Chen also felt that this method was feasible, at least it was very suitable for the current situation, he just wanted to say yes, Guo Jia behind him touched him lightly, and then whispered a few words in his ear.

Guo Jia's movements, Huang Fu Song, who was sitting at the top, saw it, and Huang Fu Song was about to make a decision, but when he saw Guo Jia's movements, he hesitated for a moment and did not make a decision immediately.

"General Jianwei, I don't know if you have any good suggestions." Huangfu Song asked.

Ye Chen stood up and said, "The last general has a suggestion for your reference. ”

"Please."

Ye Chen cleared his throat and said: "It is not difficult to attack Yingchuan, it is not difficult to recover Yingchuan, Runan, and Chen State, the problem is that it takes a long time, if you can wipe out all the main forces of the Yellow Turbans in one battle, then it will be very easy to recover these places." ”

Ye Chen's words made several people in the camp think about it, Ye Chen was right, if you want to fight city by city, it is estimated that it will take two months to completely exterminate these yellow turban thieves and recover the city.

"Then I don't know if General Jianwei has a clever plan to annihilate all the main forces of the Yellow Turbans." Zhu Jun also felt that what Ye Chen said was reasonable, so he asked for a specific solution.

"Encircle the point to send reinforcements, attack Yingchuan without breaking it, let Peng Tuo lead the army to rescue, and ambush halfway." Ye Chen said simply but powerfully.

The essence of this sentence lies in "attacking but not breaking", if it is just surrounding, then although the yellow scarf does not have many resourceful people, but not many fools, knowing that there must be a problem, but how to do it without breaking it, it is not a simple problem, if it is too fake, the other party is not fooled, it will be a waste of time.

"It's a good plan, but how to execute it must be carefully planned, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed." Huangfu Song was a famous general in the late Han Dynasty, and of course he immediately knew the key to this plan.

Everyone began to think about it with Huang Fu Song's words, and after a while, Huang Fu Song said again: "There can't be too many people ambushing Peng Tuo, if there are too many people here, then the other party will definitely not be easy to be fooled, so it needs to be carried out with few people and high combat power." ”

Huangfu Song looked at Ye Chen while speaking, there were few people in his mouth but his combat power was high, he was talking about Ye Chen, he hoped that Ye Chen would ambush Peng Tuo.

Ye Chen had no problem when he heard it, but he knew that he still had fewer soldiers and horses, so he hit Cao Cao, after all, he also had five thousand men and horses.

"Although Peng Tuo can mobilize 100,000 yellow turbans, he has no elites, it is not difficult to repel or disperse them, but it is not easy to annihilate, so I hope that Cao Duwei can cooperate with me to attack Peng Tuo."

Cao Cao's face did not change when he heard it, and he couldn't see anything, while Huangfu Song listened and thought about it and said.

"It is true that there can't be many people besieging Yingchuan, otherwise it will be difficult to attack but not break, and Cao Duwei is led by cavalry, and it is not suitable to attack the city, but it is just right to ambush Peng Tuo."

What did Huangfu Song say, then the matter was decided, so several people began to discuss some details and improve the strategy.
