Zang Ba's actions in Xiapi made Chen Deng feel uneasy, the Chen family has grown in Xuzhou over the years, and there are not a few enemies in the dark, if Zang Ba finds this weakness and then deals with Peng Cheng, it will be extremely unfavorable for Peng Cheng in front of him.

At this time, there were tens of thousands of defenders in Pengcheng, but there was still a big gap between the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and the cavalry under Zang Ba.

Zang Ba's treatment of the family is more gentle, as long as it is a family that takes refuge, it will not be embarrassed, which can be known with a little inquiry.

Not only did the war in Xuzhou change, Gan Ning led the Jinfan thieves to invade Jiangxia and Chaisang one after another, causing a lot of turmoil in the two places.

Liu Biao, who was lying on the sickbed, learned that there was a war in Jiangxia, and hurriedly sent a large army to Jiangxia, at this time the interior of Jingzhou can be described as empty, this time in order to be able to break through the state, Liu Biao tried his best, in order to completely eradicate Lu Bu, but the war in the state was not smooth, so that Liu Biao added a trace of sorrow, he already felt his physical discomfort, according to the current situation, I am afraid that he has not yet broken through the Jiguan He has died.

Another month passed, Yuan Shao listened to Cao Cao's persuasion one after another, and did not return to Jizhou, and the situation in Jizhou at this time was as Cao Cao expected, although the war in Zhongshan was urgent, Guo Yuan was still struggling to support, and Zhang Liao, who entered Wei County, although it set off a lot of turmoil in various parts of Wei County, there was no movement to invade Yecheng.

When the turmoil in Xuzhou and Jiangdong came, the atmosphere in the princes' tent was a little solemn, and Zang Ba unexpectedly seized Xiapi, which was unexpected by Cao Cao, but it was reasonable for Zang Ba to do so, in the troubled times, everyone wanted to seize enough benefits.

Zang Ba is also unwilling to be left behind, and it can be seen from his capture of Donghai County that Cao Cao is most worried that at this time, Zang Ba will seize Xuzhou, thus threatening Yanzhou, Yanzhou is the foundation of Cao Cao, and there is no room for loss.

Compared with the solemnity of the atmosphere in the princes' army, Huguan is in full swing to prepare for the final war against the princes, for these enemies who invaded the state, and the state has the same hatred, at this time, as long as Lu Bu gives an order, many people in the state will vigorously support the war in Huguan, which is out of their trust in Lu Bu.

Many people in Bingzhou will not forget that it was Lu Bu's arrival that made them worry about eating every day to now have surplus food at home, and they understand more that everything in front of them needs to be guarded by the Bingzhou army, and the people are simple, and they can see who is really good for them.

There were not a few refugees who fled from the princes' territories to the annexed states, and what happened to them under the princes' rule was no secret among the people.

Hanoi battlefield, Huang Zhong led the cavalry and Zhang He led the cavalry to keep circling, originally Zhang He had 3,000 cavalry in his hands, but after a month of fighting, it was the loss of nearly 300 cavalry, relatively speaking, the loss of the Lieyang Archer was much smaller, relying on the extraordinary riding and archery skills, Huang Zhong led the Lieyang Archer to show outstanding combat effectiveness on the battlefield.

Zhang Xiu, who followed Huang Zhong to fight, also grew up rapidly in such a war, especially after the last incident, which made Zhang Xiu more calm.

Huang Zhong had to admit that Zhang He was a strategic general, and if Huang Zhong hadn't taken precautions in advance several times, he might have fallen into Zhang He's trap.

The Burning Sun Archers who followed Huang Zhong in the battle were sharply reduced to more than 600 people in successive battles.

Zhang Xiu said: "General Huang, our army's grain and grass are only needed for three days, and if we can't replenish the grain and grass, it will be a little dangerous." ”

For Huang Zhong has not confronted Zhang He head-on for this period of time, Zhang Xiu is a little puzzled, it is said that with the combat effectiveness of the Lieyang Bow Cavalry, as long as he is not surrounded by the cavalry led by Zhang He, he can be at ease on the battlefield.

Huang Zhong said: "Recently, from the intelligence found by the scouts, it can be seen that the cavalry led by Zhang He has been a little slack, as the so-called, the arrogant army will be defeated, and this general wants to make the cavalry under Zhang He become arrogant." ”

Zhang Xiu showed a sudden look when he heard this, hugged his fists and said: "The old general is wise and brave, and the last general admires it." ”

Huang Zhong said with a smile: "You Weimo wants to compliment the old man, with Youwei's merits on the battlefield, after returning to the army, it will definitely be an indispensable reward, the army has always been the world of you young generals, but this general is a little old." ”

Zhang Xiu hurriedly said: "Who in the Bingzhou army dares to say that General Huang is old." ”

That night, Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu each led 300 cavalry, sneak attack on Zhang He, caught off guard, Zhang He's cavalry suffered heavy losses, if it were not for the cavalry of the Jizhou army at the critical moment to support hard, I am afraid that this battle of the Sun Archers can make the princes' cavalry rout.

At this point, Zhang He suddenly realized the power of the Burning Sun Archer, and in the initial battle, Zhang He put the Burning Sun Archer under Huang Zhong's command to hate the team, but he always lacked a correct understanding, mainly because the Burning Sun Archer was in a passive state when fighting against the cavalry of the princes.

After this sneak attack, the cavalry under Zhang He's command was panicked.

In desperation, Zhang He could only lead his troops back to the princes' camp.

Zhang He's defeat brought a lot of turmoil to the princes, when he went to 3,000 cavalry, only 2,000 people returned, the morale of the army was completely gone, and the situation in front of him became more and more unfavorable for the princes' army.

Just when the people in the princes' army were panicking, the Jingzhou army broke through the Kei Pass at such a moment.

The reason why the Jingzhou army broke through the Jiguan was mainly due to the body of the thunderbolt car, under the continuous attack of the thunderbolt car day and night, the boulder directly knocked down the wall of the Jiguan, and the Jingzhou army relied on the advantage of numbers, rushed in, and then occupied the Jiguan.

Zhao Yun led the cavalry to break off in person, but the Jingzhou army did not take too much advantage.

After the Kei Pass was broken, Hedong suddenly fell into a panic, Kei Pass is not only one of the important checkpoints around Chang'an, but also the barrier of Hedong, when the state army was a thunderbolt after breaking through the Kei Pass, so as to seize Hedong.

After the news reached the princes' army, the princes' minds suddenly became lively, they could not break the Huguan from the front, but completely took the land of Chang'an from Lu Bu's hands, at this time, the number of the state army in the land of Sanfu was not less than 30,000, as long as this force was eliminated, it was also a great encouragement for the princes, not only to capture Chang'an, but also to weaken Lu Bu's military strength, why not, if the army outside the Huguan was mobilized, Lu Bu would definitely not sit idly by, At that time, it was time for the princes' coalition army to fight a decisive battle with the state army.
