Although Zhang Xiu is vulgar, he is also a person who knows how to advance and retreat. When he went to see Zhang Yi, his posture was very low, "The guilty minister meets Your Majesty!" ”

"Why did the imperial brother come here to say this!" Zhang Yi also gave Zhang Xiu face, without mentioning what he had done against him before, and directly pulled him and said: "If it weren't for the imperial brother, I wouldn't have been able to take Pengcheng at all, the imperial brother has made great contributions!" ”

Zhang Xiu was a little embarrassed by Zhang Yi's words, so he casually beckoned his son Zhang Quan and asked him to meet Zhang Yi.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

"This is Quan'er? Have they all grown so big? It's really a talent, and when he returns to Shouchun, he will let Quan'er go to graduate school for further study. Zhang Yi pulled Zhang Quan and said, although Zhang Quan is only about ten years younger than Zhang Yi, but after all, he is a junior, and he should be cared for by an elder.

After pacifying Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yi entered Pengcheng. Tang He took over the city defense of Pengcheng, and after Zhang Yi entered Pengcheng, he issued a reward to Zhang Xiu: "Because Zhang Xiu abandoned the secret and surrendered to the light, he was meritorious in capturing Pengcheng, awarded General Anton, and sealed the county marquis." ”

Zhang Yi not only looked at Zhang Xiu as his own clansman, but also took Zhang Xiu as an example to express a signal to the people in Cao Wei's camp that as long as you surrender, you will get high-ranking officials.

Zhang Yi's move quickly showed its effect. Zhang Yi himself sat in Pengcheng and asked Tang Heshuai to pursue Zhang Liao. Tang He went from Liuxian to Guangqi and attacked Peixian.

Zhang Liao lost more than 10,000 soldiers in Pengcheng, and Peixian had less than 30,000 soldiers. In the face of more than 30,000 people, Tang He is even more at a disadvantage.

Zhang Yi asked Zhang Xiu and Wang Meng to take Zhang Xiu and the collected Cao soldiers to surrender and return to Langya to block Zang Ba.

Send Zhu Ran to lead 10,000 people to support Wang Jian and attack Xiangxian.

There were not many defenders in Xiangxian, but because Wang Jian's siege ability was not very strong, he did not defeat it for several days. After Zhu Ran came, he immediately commanded the army to attack the city, and under the all-out attack of the whole army, Xiangxian was captured in less than two hours. After taking Xiangxian, Wang Jian was stationed, and Zhu Ran attacked Linsui, Taiqiu, Jianping, Yuxian, Danxian, and Qiaoxian to the west, and then stationed in Qiaoxian to contain Chen and Liang.

Zhang Liao, who retreated to Pei County, held on to Pei County for more than ten days. Tang He sent troops to attack all the time, and the well fence and rushing cars continued to cause damage to the city.

Zhang Liao has been sleeping for more than ten days, sleeping only for one or two hours every day, and going to the city whenever there is movement. repelled dozens of attacks outside the city, and even watched Shan Xiongxin stab, almost not letting him fall off the city wall.

But even so, Zhang Liao couldn't hold on in the end. In the end, because of exhaustion, he couldn't hold on and was attacked by Tang He on the city wall.

Zhang Liao could only flee in defeat again, this time retreating to Rencheng. After arriving in Rencheng, Zhang Liao finally ushered in reinforcements, and Le Jin had rushed over from Yecheng with 20,000 troops.

Cao Pi also knew that Zhang Liao was under a lot of pressure here, so he sent Le Jin to him. Cao Pi sent a total of four armies, in addition to Lejin, one led 20,000 people to be stationed in Shangdang; One group entered Hanoi due to a ban of 30,000 men and was stationed in Huai County; and Cao Chun led 10,000 cavalry to attack Xuchang.

Zhang Xiu and Wang Meng were stationed from Wuyuan, Tanxian, and Jiqiu, and after arriving in Kaiyang. Because Zhang Xiu's army discipline was not as good as that of Zhang Yi's soldiers, Zhang Yi did not ask them to take all the county seats of Langya County, but stationed in Kaiyang to prevent Zang Ba's attack.

Of course, Zang Ba didn't have much chance to attack Langya, because the naval army of Gan Ning and the others had also gone north to attack on the coast of Qingzhou. However, they are all harassing attacks, mainly to drag Zang Ba.

Zhang Yi saw that he had taken Xuzhou, and immediately appointed officials to various parts of Xuzhou. Zheng Hun was appointed as the assassin of Xuzhou, and the Xiapi State and Pengcheng State were abolished, and the Xiapi County and Pengcheng County were changed. Lu Yi is the Taishou of Xiapi County, Du Qi is the Taishou of Pengcheng County, Meng Guang is the Taishou of Donghai County, and Zhou Qun is the Taishou of Langya County.

Zhang Yi sent Xia Luqi to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses from Xiapi to Donghai County and collect all the counties of Donghai County. Attack Houqiu, Qu County, Ganyu, Zhuqi, Licheng, go to Tan County to attack Xiangben, Lanling, Chengxian, Yinping, Changxi, Hexiang. Then go south to Qi County, enter the territory of Pengcheng County, collect Fuyang and Wuyuan, and then return to Pengcheng.

After Xia Luqi returned to Pengcheng, the officials appointed by Zhang Yi had basically arrived in Pengcheng. These officials appointed by Zhang Yi were not arranged by themselves casually, but based on their previous merits, plus the assessment of conduct and ability.

Originally, Zhang Yi didn't have much expectations for Langya County. However, Wang Meng was obviously not satisfied with persuading Zhang Xiu's exploits, so he instigated Zhang Xiu to divide his troops, let Hu Che'er attack the country, and left Zhang Quan in Kaiyang, Zhang Xiu himself led troops to attack Linyi, Yangdu, Dong'an, Dongguan, and stationed in Dongguan. Wang Meng took his soldiers and went north to Juxian, Zhuxian, Dongwu Pingchang, and Gumu.

Wang Meng was stationed in Gumu, and his troops were directed at Beihai State. Zang Ba was stationed in Beihai Country, and at this time he was already very busy, not only to guard against sea attacks, but also to pay attention to Wang Meng, and he was already exhausted. However, Wang Meng did not directly attack Beihai because the food supply was not available.

Because Xuzhou was harassed by Zhang Yi all the year round, Cao Cao basically abandoned many counties and almost moved the people away. Those who did not move away basically took refuge in Zhang Yi. Much of the land in Xuzhou has been abandoned for many years. As a result, Zhang Yi was temporarily unable to get a large amount of grain in Xuzhou, and could only transport grain from Guangling and Shouchun.

However, the grain of Guangling and Shouchun needed to be supplied to Zhang Yi and Tang He first.

Fortunately, Langya County has developed quite well over the years, and it can still hold on to Zhang Xiu and Wang Meng for a while. Wang Meng took advantage of this time to get in touch with Gan Ning and asked them to send some grain to Langya County. Gan Ning's navy really sent them food, and it was quite a lot, a full 500,000 hu.

With these grains, Wang Meng is much more at ease.

Although Zang Ba is also a famous general, he has been in Qingxu for many years, but he is still a lot worse than Wang Meng. After Wang Meng got the grain, he began to plan to attack Qingzhou, he discussed with Gan Ning, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai and others, he did not have an army, but the navy had! There are thousands of people in one fleet of the navy, and there are 20,000 or 30,000 people in three fleets, and these people can completely capture Qingzhou.

However, Wang Meng still asked Zhang Yi for some soldiers, because he still needed infantry to garrison various places.

Zhang Yi heard Wang Meng's idea, so he asked Xia Luqi to bring 10,000 soldiers to reinforce the past, there is a navy to supply grain and grass, why not take Qingzhou easily?
