Chapter 409 Quiet outside the city of Luoyang

Since the first year of Jian'an, in the past four years, Guanzhong has not had such a large-scale revival

Even if Dong Li seized the pass and begged the army to destroy Xianbei, most of them were hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and this time......

There were 80,000 people in the White Army and 60,000 in the Forward Army. /。 0М

Coupled with the 100,000 horses in the two camps of Xin'an and Weinan, Yuan Rong and Beiwei, as well as the guerrilla army that had already fought in Hanoi, Dong Li almost transferred the elite troops in the pass, and successively opened up the front line of Gucheng.

So, from Gucheng to Yang, in a short distance, more than 200,000 troops were gathered.

When Dong Li saw the steady stream of soldiers and horses coming out of Guanzhong, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

This may be the biggest battle he has commanded in his life.

And the source of this battle actually came from a defeat that had nothing to do with him?

"I also know that it doesn't seem worth it. In fact, with the current situation in Guanzhong, in just a few years, we will have enough strength to easily recapture Yang. But now, we're going to fight a close battle! ”

In private, Dong Li explained to Xu Shu: "Xiahou Lan's defeat, if it is as usual, it will be defeated." But the new emperor's accession to the throne is a good time for the world to return to the heart, and this defeat has become a battle of luck between Xuchang and Chang'an. If we just go back, then all the means we used before will eventually become the laughing stock of others. ”

Xu Shu disagreed, "Gaozu competed with Xiang Yu back then, and he was defeated repeatedly, but in the end he ......"

"For a moment. At that moment! Xun Yan said softly: "They are fighting for the world, we are fighting for the emperor, it sounds similar, but in fact it is different." Now it is not the east wind that prevails over the west wind. It is the west wind that overpowers the east wind. Cao Cao wants to fight for face, and we have to fight for a breath, in the end, this war will not have a result. ”

Xu Shu nodded and shook his head again.

"However, I really want to protect the emperor's face...... To protect his face is to protect our face. ”

Kaoru laughed self-deprecatingly: "I hate this kind of boring face battle the most, but every time I have to be caught in the middle." I was reminded of the saying, Xing. The people suffered; Death, the people suffer...... I just hope this damn turmoil will end sooner. ”

"Shu, I am willing to serve my life and follow the lord!"

Xu Shu bowed. Kaoru was in a state of crisis, standing on the gate tower of Gucheng, looking out towards the sun.

Presumably, at this time, Apo will also be very nervous......

******

Kaoru guessed wrong!

Cao Cao is not in the sun at the moment.

At the same time as the Yang War kicked off, the Tiger Prison Pass and Yanjin direction. At the same time, an urgent document came.

Especially Cao Ren, in the face of 30,000 elite guerrilla troops, although the troops in his hands far exceeded Huang Zhong, he was defeated repeatedly.

Huang Zhong is as fierce as a tiger!

This is the phrase Cao Ren used in the document.

Choke Cao Cao depressed enough. Why did another tiger come out? Why are there so many tigers around Dong Xiping?

Soon after Cao Ren's documents came, the Xuan Feng army came out of the east of the river.

Xiahoudun, the general of the Tiger Prison, is also a person who knows the soldiers, and since the beginning of the Yang War, it can be said that he has experienced a hundred battles.

However, when Zhang He took over the command from Chun Yudao. Xiahoudun immediately felt the pressure double.

One Huang Zhong, one Zhang He......

If it's just these two people, that's it.

To Cao Cao's annoyance, Yuan Shao suddenly stepped in at this time.

Pingyuan County Taishou Zongbao sent an urgent document, Gao Ran sent troops from Qinghe County, and captured the seven counties north of the river and belonging to Pingyuan County. Now Chen Bing is in the west of Pingchang (now northwest of Shanghe, Shandong), eyeing the tiger and making an offensive posture.

Cao Cao heard the news. The first reaction was: Yuan Shao and Dong Yu have joined forces!

To be honest, Cao Cao really wanted to be in Yang. And Kaoru wrestled his wrist again to see who had the better means.

But the problem is that Qingzhou is in an emergency, and Yanzhou is in an emergency......=[=

Lu Su looked at the map, couldn't help but sigh, and said to Cao Cao: "Lord, I'm afraid that Gongsun is finished!" ”

Cao Cao didn't react at once, looked at Lu Su suspiciously, and said, "What does this matter have to do with Gongsun Du?" ”

Although Su still doesn't know what kind of trick Dong Yu is playing, it is obvious that he is only afraid that he is ready to annex Youzhou. Otherwise, Yuan Shao would not have sent troops to Qingzhou...... It doesn't matter if he wants to seek space, or if he joins forces with Dong Li. Yuan Shao attacked Qingzhou at this time, obviously trying to seek a way out. ”

Regarding Lu Su's inference, Cao Cao was skeptical.

However, he still decided to personally sit in Zhenyang to stabilize the situation in the eastern part of Jingzhao and deter Yuan Shao.

As for Yang's war, it won't end for a while.

The opponents that Xun Yu has to face are also not easy to match, Zhou Yu Xiahou Yuan, including Liu Bei, is enough for him to feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, when the Tabai army arrived in Gucheng, Cao Cao had already arrived in Yang.

This made Dong Li very disappointed, and he still wanted to catch up with Cao Cao outside this Yang City, and then try it again.

However, with Zhou Yu's opponent, Dong Yan also did not dare to take it lightly.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhou Yu was said to be a narrow-minded person, and the credit for the Battle of Chibi was placed on Zhuge Liang's head.

But Dong Li no longer believes in the damn Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he prefers to believe in his own eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the weather has begun to cool, the leaves of the trees have gradually turned yellow, and autumn is coming imperceptibly.

In Gucheng, Xun gathered 150,000 soldiers and horses, including the Tuntian army from various camps.

And Zhou Yu also camped according to Yang, and 200,000 soldiers and horses lined up, filling such a small area as Jingzhao.

No one expected such a situation.

In the initial confrontation, both sides have their own tricks, but they soon find out. There seems to be no room for manoeuvre.

Without him, there are too many people and too dense barracks.

In some places, an intricately entangled situation has been formed. Water, on one side is the Guanzhong Army. On one side is the coalition forces. As long as there is a little action on both sides, the opponent will immediately see through and see through it.

Several skirmishes eventually evolved into a face-to-face charge.

After more than 10 days of fighting, both sides suffered casualties. Xun Yu was uncomfortable, and Zhou Yu, who was also in Yang, was also very painful.

Kaoru said, "I plan to attack ...... with fire"

Someone immediately came out and said, "No, the joint venture is too close now." Even if there is a strong wind to help me, it will be affected. ”

Zhou Yu said: "I want to dig boiling water and flood Gucheng!" ”

Xiahou Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "Digging up water, of course, can flood Gucheng, but I am afraid that our army will not be able to escape." ”

"I'll retreat thirty miles!"

"As long as we have the action. Kaoru Xiping will definitely react! ”

“……”

Zhou Yu had nothing to do, and the same Dong Yu could only stare at him.

Hundreds of thousands of troops were consuming outside Yangcheng like this, and no one dared to act rashly, and no one dared to take the lead.

At this time, maybe it's really a trigger. And move the whole body.

In other aspects, whether it is Tiger Prison Pass or Yanjin, they are all in full swing. Even Pang De's side has had more than a dozen confrontations with Liu Bei. The two sides were evenly matched, and in the end there was a draw.

On the contrary, it is yang, which is quiet at the moment.

In the Gucheng camp, Dong Li gathered all the generals, and they all frowned.

Chen Zhi sat helplessly on the side, thinking that there would be a shopping struggle. But who knew it would be like this?

Xun Li said: "In this situation, you can't fight, you can't retreat, what should I do?" ”

yes, what should I do?

Chen Zhi and other generals all closed their mouths and drooped their heads, not knowing how to answer Dong Li's seemingly simple question.

As soon as the army moved, the money, food, and materials spent. It's huge.

Although it is said that the foundation of Guanzhong is very thick, after all, it has only been stable for two years. And the frequent use of troops is also somewhat unbearable.

Presumably Cao Cao's current situation is the same.

Xu Shu and Pang Tong did not speak. As soon as the two of them came in, they stared at the sand table in the center of the big tent, with blank expressions.

"Lord, can you let me read those official documents you showed me a few days ago?"

Xun Yu asked Pei Yuanshao to hold the official document and handed it to Pang Tong, "Shiyuan, will Ji An come out?" ”

In his tone, there was a strong expectation, but who knew that Pang Tongyi shook his head, "No way, I can't think of any way." ”

"Adjournment!"

Xun Yan was so angry that he stood up and waved his hand, and everyone immediately scattered.

This damn Yang Battle is really the most aggrieved battle in my life, aggrieved, aggrieved!

Ordinary tricks are useless for characters like Zhou Yu.

If you want to use a trick, you can't find a place to start. Dong Li sat alone in the big tent, looking at the sand table and meditating.

Before I knew it, three shifts had passed.

Drowsiness came up, and Dong Li got up and prepared to rest.

At this moment, Pang Tong Xu Shu and Chen Zhi suddenly walked into the big tent.

Kaoru asked strangely, "It's so late, why don't you all rest?" Run me here, what's the matter? ”

Pang Tongyi smiled, "Lord, there is a way!" ”

"What's the solution?"

"There is a plan, if it can be successful, it can make the lord seize the sun without a knife or a gun."

Kaoru's eyes lit up all of a sudden!

The previous exhaustion was also driven out of the clouds.

He grabbed Pang Tong and asked eagerly, "What is the plan?" Shi Yuan, hurry up! ”

Pang Tong smiled: "Just now I was chatting with Yuan Zhi and Shu Zhi and came up with a plan. However, this plan still needs the cooperation of the lord. ”

"I cooperate?"

"Not bad!"

Pang Tong said: "Now the yang grain and grass are all from Yingchuan through the Xuanyuan Pass, Dagu Pass and Yique Pass to Jingzhao. As long as you can capture the three levels, Yang will be self-defeating. ”

Kaoru pouted, "Are you going to cut off the grain road?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Ha, that Cao Cao uses soldiers, and he likes to cut off people's grain the most, and I once did this grain cut in Yang, how could he not take precautions?"

Pang Tong said with a smile: "Back then, the eldest brother had heard about the incident of attacking sour dates and burning the granary. However, the younger brother has never seen the demeanor of the eldest brother back then, and he often thinks it is a pity. Now, why don't you let the little brother make up for the regrets? ”

Xun Yu glared at Pang Tong, "Little ugly, if you have something to say, don't beat around the bush, I still have to sleep!" ”

Xu Shu said: "Lord, Shiyuan's strategy is a bit dangerous, but if it can be successful, it is indeed possible to defeat Zhou Yu." ”

As he spoke, he leaned into Dong Li's ear and muttered a few words in a low voice.

"This matter is still mentioned by Shu Zhi unintentionally, but if the lord wants to implement it, he still needs some careful planning."

Xun Yu squinted, looked at Chen Dao, and then at Pang Tong.

The thing Xu Shu just said, if it is well planned, it is indeed a little certain. However, as Xu Shu said before, this matter is very risky, and if there is a slight mistake, there may be a risk of life.

After a moment of silence, Dong Li raised his head and asked, "Shuzhi, what is the name of that person you said?" Why don't I have any impressions? ”

Chen Zhi said: "That man and I are fellow villagers, and during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he took refuge in the mountains with my whole family, and the lord must have seen it." It's just that he was still young at the time, that is, six or seven years old...... Later, Yingchuan was victorious, and I went to Liangzhou with my lord, but his father and son did not go back to Runan because they still had concerns at home. ”

"I'm really not impressed!"

It was already sixteen years ago, and Dong Li really didn't have any impression at all.

"What's his name?"

"This person's surname is Lu, and his name is Meng...... The rich man of Runan (now Funan, Anhui), now under the command of Cao Cao, served as the commander of Dagu. ”
