Chapter 231: Defeat is here
When Hao Meng and his party returned to Linzi City, it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On that day, after the fall of the bandit king, the bandits scattered by three thousand stars quickly died in the formation, and after cleaning the battlefield, Hao Meng and they returned to Muping County overnight.
After resting in Muping County for two days and digesting the fruits of victory, Hao Meng and the others turned to Linzi City.
In order to exterminate the bandits on Zhicui Island, Hao Meng and them spent almost half a month before and after, and the rivalry between the princes has also changed a lot in the past half a month.
……
Yuan Shao of Jizhou finally sent Zhang Yan back to Montenegro again.
Then, Yuan Benchu bribed many civil and military officials around Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou, and completely emptied Han Jizhou.
At this point, according to the development trend of history, Han Fu should have been forced to surrender to Yuan Shao. However, history at this time took a turn: Han Fu was packed by Yuan Shao and sent to Chang'an.
Anyway, it's not the first time Yuan Benchu has done this, there is a Liu Youzhou in front, and now there is a Han Jizhou, and Yuan Shao has no pressure to do it.
Yuan Shao, who had completely freed his hands, was preparing to march into Youzhou again and copy Gongsun Zhan's back road.
……
Jiangdong Sun's father and son, the process of breaking hands with Lu Kang, the Taishou of Lujiang, went very well.
It's a pity, maybe it was greedy for merit, or maybe it was intentional, Sun Jian, who did not die in the hands of Liu Biao, died on the battlefield of Lujiang.
So, Sun Ce, who carried the banner of Jiangdong, after breaking through the Lujiang River, although he did not slaughter the city, he slaughtered Lu Kang all over the door.
For this reason, the Jiangdong Lu family, one of the four wealthy businessmen in the world, was almost uprooted by Sun Ce.
Now, Sun Ce is not only in Dai Xiao, but also taking the opportunity to sweep the southern part of Yangzhou.
……
After the Sun father and son marched eastward, Liu Biao of Jingzhou took advantage of the situation to recover Changsha County and completely drove the forces of Sun Jian, who was too guarded by Changsha, into Yangzhou.
At this time, the seven counties of Jingxiang had entered the era of Liu Jingzhou, and only a large area of the city in the north of Nanyang was occupied by Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew.
However, Liu Biao, who had his hands free, did not have the ability to trouble Zhang's uncle and nephew.
Because, Yuan Shu, who would only harm others and benefit himself, shrank his forces to Runan, and only roughly rectified the entire Yuzhou, and then turned around and fought with Liu Biao.
Yuan Highway's idea is about, let's not have a good time, don't think about it anymore Liu Jingsheng!
……
Xuzhou, Tao Qian originally wanted to pull Hao Meng's hind legs.
It's just that the situation in Yanzhou suddenly changed, and Tao Qian had to drive his troops and horses to Peiguo and Pengcheng to set up defenses. Prevent the situation in Yanzhou from getting out of control once it gets out of control, and prevent those chaotic soldiers from sweeping into Xuzhou.
However, the three brothers Liu Guanzhang who were squatting in Xiapi made Hao Mengdu, who received the news, feel a little surprised.
In the past few days, taking advantage of the emptiness in Xuzhou, Liu Bei actually sent troops and captured several cities that originally belonged to Xiapi.
Of course, according to the official version, when Uncle Liu Huang was seriously ill, his brother sent troops without authorization and captured several cities in the south of Xiapi.
However, regardless of whether it was Guan Lao's second brother Zhang Laosan who sent troops without authorization, Liu Guan and Zhang's third brothers finally had a direction of expansion.
However, at present, due to the lack of troops, the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang are recruiting troops in Xiapi, and they have not yet had time to go south to Jiujiang County in Yangzhou.
……
Compared with other princes in the world, the situation in Yanzhou is what dazzles many princes, but Hao Meng takes it for granted.
First of all, Liu Dai, the former Yanzhou assassin who was compressed in a corner of Dongping Kingdom, actually lost his sincerity to Cao Cao, the Taishou of Jiyin, and was completely incorporated into Cao Mengde's forces.
This alone has made many princes in the world dumbfounded.
This is like the governor of a province in later generations actually losing his sincerity to a mayor, which makes people shocked and unbelievable!
Then, the remnants of the Eastern County who beat Chen Liutaishou to the point that there were only three cities left, actually lost their sincerity to Cao Mengde!
Then, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and said that it was difficult to speak alone, and he also lost his sincerity to Cao Mengde.
At this point, except for one Taishan County occupied by a few Taishan thieves, the other counties in Yanzhou have nominally entered the era of Cao Mengde.
With this general trend, Cao Cao has nearly 100,000 elite soldiers, and only then does he have the capital to counterattack Qingzhou's millions of yellow turbans!
By the time Hao Meng was resting in Muping County, Cao Cao had already suppressed Zheng Gu and Zang Ba to the Jibei region. The Qingzhou Yellow Turban and Zang Ba's Taishan thieves will also be destroyed in the next few days.
……
Of course, the soldiers and horses under Hao Meng's command did not eat idle during this time.
After Hao Meng went to Muping County to suppress the bandits, according to Hao Meng's arrangement before leaving, Yu Poison and Zongbao took the three soldiers and directly advanced the front to Licheng County in Pingyuan County and Chi County in Taishan County.
The southern part of Chi County is the legendary Mount Tai, Yu Poison They occupy Licheng and Chi County, even if they block the retreat of the millions of yellow turbans in Zhenggu, it is impossible for Zhenggu to follow Zang Ba back to Taishan County!
From the Jibei area to Taishan County, in addition to the line of Chi County, there is only a towering Mount Tai left.
However, is the vast Mount Tai so easy to climb?
Therefore, the remaining seven or eight hundred thousand people in Zhenggu and Zang Ba combined were all compressed in the Jibei area at this time.
Of course, after Yu Poison blocked the back road of Zhenggu, they also took the opportunity to collect and surrender nearly 100,000 prisoners, and they were all scattered and escorted to fifty or sixty ruined county towns in Qingzhou.
Also according to Hao Meng's assignment, the entire focus of Hao Meng Group has also shifted to Linzi City during this time.
There are now more than 20,000 captives in Linzi City who are engaged in construction, and before winter, Linzi City can almost be restored to its former appearance.
After Mi Zhu and his future father-in-law arrived in Linzi City, they began to preside over the reclamation work of the entire Qingzhou.
In Kaiyang County, the capital of Langya County, only one patrol battalion was stationed at this time, and the other soldiers and horses were brought to Qingzhou.
Although Langya County was empty at this time, Yangduguan still had a soldier and a patrol battalion.
Even if Tao Qian wants to copy Hao Meng's back road, at most, he will only take a Kaiyang County, and Yangduguan will curb Tao Qian's idea of pulling Hao Meng's hind legs.
In view of the considerable pressure on the Yanzhou front line due to poison, the soldiers and horses that were brought to Linzi City by Mi Zhu were also sent to Chixian County in time to reinforce.
……
Some of the above news was rushed by Hao Meng's own forces, and some were discovered with the help of the Mi family's network.
It also takes time to deliver messages!
Therefore, most of the news that Hao Meng received was outdated. If the time is short, there is a difference of two days, and a long time of ten days and a half is possible!
Fortunately, for Hao Meng, the Qingzhou strategy has been completed, and all that remains is to capture more prisoners on the Yanzhou front line to enrich the population of Qingzhou.
What's more, Hao Meng returned to Linzi City.
After Hao Meng had an extra city model in his hands, Linzi City, which was originally intended to be the capital, became insignificant.
It's just that when Hao Meng was about to set up the city model next to Linzi City, the report of Yu Poison's defeat also came at this time.
