Chapter 830: Spreading Eastward
Zhang Jaw is worthy of being one of the five good generals under Cao Cao. When the 60,000 Qinglong Army dispersed all at once, what Gongsun Du saw was despair.
In the first war, only in the first battle, Gongsun Du had to push out the territory of Guangyang County and return to Yuyang County. But Zhang Jaw and Li Dian didn't want to let Gongsun Du go like this. Don't forget, Cao De gave them the task of taking the heads of Gongsun Du's family back to Luoyang.
In the early morning of the next day, the Han army, which had rested all night, embarked on the journey again, and the more than 80,000 troops except for a part of the necessary defenders left behind, the rest of them all embarked on the road of the eastward expedition.
In Daijun to the west, Ma Chao and more than 20,000 flying wolf troops also marched north again after a day's rest. That night, after Pang De led the army to charge for a while, Kebineng retreated north with the Xianbei army. And today, Ma Chao is also ready to take the initiative.
"Kebineng, I didn't expect your life to be really big!" Ma Chao and Kebineng stood together again, but now Ma Chao's eyes were full of playful and sadistic looks. Kebineng is no longer what it used to be, the original black hair on his head has begun to turn gray, and the wisdom in his eyes has been replaced by vicissitudes.
"Yes, this king is old, but General Ma is only in the prime of life!" Kebineng also said with some embarrassment.
"In that case, then Ke is more than King Neng to enjoy this remaining time, why do you offend me again again?"
"Forced to make a living. The king can die, but the people still have to live. "Actually, Ke Bineng was very helpless, knowing that his chances of winning against Cao De were not great, but he had to plunder for the sake of the huge clan. Robbery, many times is actually forced. Forced by life!
"Haha...... It's really a big joke, do you have to kill us Han people for the sake of you Xianbei people, what kind of logic is this. If the king really thinks about his clansmen, then he will not invade the Han in the south. Will you not die in wars and plunder? This general will show you the way and surrender to the king of Han. As long as you surrender in good faith, the King of Han will never be stingy. "Yes, how can there be immortals in war, is it true that the Xianbei people will not die if they plunder south? Is it only what is most needed that is robbed?
"Surrender? The mighty Xianbei people will not surrender to anyone! Kebineng's tone was a little tough.
"In that case, after the big man kills all the Xianbei men, can you still be strong? Look behind this general, they are the Huns who are more powerful than you, and they are not fighting for our Han now! Ma Chao pointed behind him meaningfully. You Xianbei people, the strong is our Han who has the final say, and the weak is our Han who has the final say. If King Kebineng is obsessed, then we can only rely on the sword in our hands to speak. ”
"Why? The former steppe flying wolf would not talk such nonsense! Suddenly, Kobi was able to pull away from the conversation.
Ma Chao was stunned, "Hehe, maybe." Give the king an hour to think about it, and after an hour, surrender or perdition, it's all in the king's thoughts! ”
After Ma Chao finished speaking, he returned to his own formation. "The whole army rests in place."
What is Ma Chao thinking now. The day before yesterday, when the raging flames engulfed the mountains of corpses, Ma Chao thought a lot. Why so many people die every year. Why do Xianbei people lose and fight repeatedly. For a day and a night, Ma Chao thought back to his days on the grassland. That time was full of novelty for himself, but it was painful for Xianbei people.
Eating should be counted as eating, and many people eat this meal without the next meal. Therefore, they envy the wealth of our Han people. But as a race, it takes a lot of courage to take the initiative to bow to other races, so they chose to plunder.
And when Ma Chao saw the Huns eating flatbread, he couldn't help but think that it would be good if the Xianbei people were the same as the Huns. At least there are no more wars so frequent.
At this moment, Ma Chao's mind actually caught up with Cao De's pace. However, Cao De had no idea of letting go of the Xianbei people.
An hour passed quickly. But the Xianbei people still showed their scimitars. Although the Xianbei ethnic group is led by Kebineng, Kebineng cannot make his own claims in many things, especially in the matter of bowing down to the Han Dynasty.
If you want to fight, then fight.
Countless scimitars were unsheathed, countless horses' hooves began to fly, and countless lives were about to be lost.
At the same time, in Yuyang County to the east, the war also began.
Gongsun Du's opponents have always been Goguryeo, Samhan, or Uhuan. One thing they have always had in common is their emphasis on attack. Therefore, over the years, Gongsun Du has also developed a habit. That's the offense.
The best defense is offense. For defending the city, Gongsun Du had almost no ideas in this regard.
Therefore, the hundreds of thousands of Liaodong coalition troops and the 60,000 Qinglong army fought against each other on the vast plains without the slightest fancy showdown.
The current Cao De can be said to be rich and rich. Even if you have all kinds of martial arts, I am a lot of people. If you have the ability, you will beat me a hundred. A hundred is not enough? It doesn't matter, I still have a thousand. Tired exhausts you.
As the saying goes, one force will drop ten. Stratagem is only worshipped by the weak, and the strong never bother to use any intrigues.
However, to the south of the Han Dynasty, this principle does not work. Why? Because it was Zhou Yu who was fighting against Cao De's army.
Cao De's 200,000-strong army lived in Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu also led 150,000 people to take the initiative to meet Cao De's troops.
Speaking of which, this is the first time that Xu Shu and Zhou Yu have confronted each other. Although Xu Shu knew that Jiangdong had a talented man named Zhou Yu, this Zhou Yu had contributed to the development of Jiangdong so far. But Xu Shu still didn't pay too much attention to Zhou Yu. But Zhou Yu is different, the two chiefs of staff under Cao De, Xu Shu and Guo Jia, and Zhou Yu have been studying for a long time. As for the generals who can divide their troops and fight independently, Zhou Yu guessed with his toes that it was Cao Ren, so Zhou Yu's understanding of Cao Ren was also very thorough.
The topography of Jingzhou is not as good as that of the Central Plains, where the rivers are criss-crossed, and it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch without a navy army. Therefore, Xu Shu didn't dare to be careless, and he has been advancing step by step, little by little. But even so, Xu Shu was calculated by Zhou Yu a few times.
Fortunately, Xu Shu reported in a timely manner and simply did not cause large casualties. However, Zhou Yu's weight in Xu Shu's heart has increased a lot. This kid is really not simple.
In less than a month, the entire Han Dynasty ignited the flames of war in the south, the middle and the north almost at the same time. And this fire, which has begun to spread to the east, has begun to spread to the east. 8)
