Since Guo Jia was under Su Chen's command, he has been treated as a guest, as the so-called eating people with a soft mouth and short hands, Su Chen asked in public, he couldn't hide it anymore. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Guo Jia changed his lazy image in the past, and said solemnly: "Jia has a word to ask the general!" ”

"Bong-hyo please!"

"What Jia wants to ask is, is the general going to defeat Gongsun Du in this Eastern Expedition and collect his troops and return after taking the three counties of Liaodong into his pocket?"

"Hahahaha." Hearing Guo Jia ask this question, Su Chen knew that he understood his intentions, and immediately said: "Of course not, you may not know, this three counties of Liaodong and even Goguryeo to the north, and the land of Sanhan to the south, this is a treasure land, let's put it this way, if the three counties of Liaodong, Goguryeo and the land of Sanhan are built into granaries, the grain harvested every year is at least enough for the people of Youzhou for two years, this is still a conservative estimate of Benhou." ”

"Moreover, Liaodong is near the sea, I am afraid you don't know, the sea is a natural granary given to us by God, there are schools of fish and shrimp in the sea, and there are countless kinds of meat, if we build a naval base in Liaodong and build a big ship that can go to sea, then the sea will continue to provide us with food, if this granary is opened, then no one will starve under Benhou's rule in the future."

"At that time, Ben Hou promises that Youzhou will never be that barren land again, at that time, everyone will have food to eat, everyone will have clothes to wear, Liaodong will become a paradise far from the war, and Ben Hou will also regard Liaodong as the rear in the future, so the status of Liaodong is very important, do you understand?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia was also a little shocked, originally what he wanted to say was that after Su Chen exterminated Gongsun Du, he would continue to use troops against Sanhan and even Goguryeo Buyeo and other places, but he didn't expect to hear such a grand idea in his mouth, at this moment, Guo Jia admired it so much.

All the generals were attracted by the picture depicted by Su Chen, imagine that everyone has clothes to wear, everyone has food, and no one will starve to death again, isn't such a place a paradise?

Guo Jia retracted his mind and said: "The general is very ambitious, since this is the case, Jia thinks that we should not beat Gongsun Du to death with a stick, but gradually entangle him, slowly drive him out of Liaodong County, drive him to Goguryeo, and drive him to the land of Samhan, at that time, we can not only use Gongsun Du to test Goguryeo's troops, but also become famous, and then take these places into our pockets." ”

"I'm afraid that it will be difficult to achieve this strategic goal." Su Chen didn't think so, it was not difficult to exterminate a Gongsun Du, but it was not an overnight task to send troops to Sanhan and Goguryeo, which would take a long time.

"Of course, it's not small, so Jia thinks that the general must be prepared for a long-term battle, and once the three counties of Liaodong are in his pocket, he must keep 100,000 soldiers and horses in Liaodong before he can continue to fight against Sanhan and Goguryeo."

"100,000 soldiers?" This number made Su Chen a little surprised, but if you think about it carefully, it is not much, these 100,000 soldiers and horses not only have to deal with Sanhan, Goguryeo, and meet the counterattack of Gongsun Dufuzi, but more importantly, they must always guard against the Wuhuan people, although these alien races are more honest after the Wuhuan Rebellion, but he will never take it lightly.

"Then Feng Xiao thinks that how should the pestering Gongsun Du be implemented?"

"Without him, it's just pressing step by step!" Guo Jia said disappreciatively.

"Hmm!" Su Chen also felt that there was no need to use any surprise soldiers this time, just need to be upright, thought about it, and ordered: "Le Jin, order you to lead a thousand Qingzhou soldiers to attack Xuansu County, and you must not let a single soldier rush to the aid of Xiangping!" ”

"The last general commands!"

"Gongming, your 50,000 Beiwei army is the main force of this battle, you personally lead your soldiers and horses to surround Xiangping, if you encounter the enemy army, you must annihilate it all, this battle is mainly to destroy the enemy's living forces, don't care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, our purpose is to drive Gongsun Du out of Xiangping, understand?"

"The last general commands!"

"Okay, the generals will go down separately, and Benhou will personally sit in charge without worries and ensure sufficient food and salary supplies for the army."

After Le Jin got the order, he immediately led 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers to march into Houcheng, and after Gongsun Gong received the battle report, he personally led 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight a decisive battle with Le Jin outside the city.

Gongsun Gong waited for work, thinking that it would be an easy war, but after a fight, he realized that his county soldiers were not the opponents of the other party at all, and the 20,000 troops were defeated in a battle, and most of them were captured by the other party.

Gongsun Gong fled back to Houcheng in embarrassment, ready to gather his generals to defend the fortified city, but Zhu Gongdao had already laid a secret here, with the help of Neiying, Le Jin easily opened the gate of Houcheng, Gongsun Gong was unexpected, escaped from Houcheng at night, and only took a few dozen followers to Xiangping.

After Lejin occupied Houcheng, he did not immediately pursue Gongsun Gong, but divided his soldiers into several parts, quickly occupied various county towns in Xuansu, and deployed 3,000 elite soldiers to guard the border with Goguryeo.

Just when Gongsun Gong fled back to Xiangping, Xu Huang's army of 50,000 had already conquered Liaoyang and was marching towards Xiangping.

Gongsun Du has long known that he and Su Chen will have a battle, not to mention that his official position is Dong Zhuofeng, and now the Eastern Han Dynasty court does not recognize it at all, even if there is no such thing, Su Chen, as a Youzhou pastor, will never allow him, the emperor of the soil entrenched in Liaodong, to become bigger, so he sent his most proud son to Lelang County to develop, in order to lay out for the future.

Gongsun Du is a very talented person, in history he served as the Liaodong Taishou, strictly enforce strict punishment and strict laws, crack down on powerful forces, so that the order of the administration through, the wings are gradually full. In the first year of the First Peace Period (190), Dong Zhuo rebelled in the Central Plains, and the warlords in various places had no time to look east. Gongsun Du took the opportunity to establish himself as the Marquis of Liaodong and the pastor of Pingzhou. Then he attacked Goguryeo in the east, attacked Wuhuan in the west, took the Liaodong Peninsula in the south, crossed the sea to take the Donglai counties in the north of the Jiaodong Peninsula, and expanded the territory; He also recruited talents, set up a museum to open a school, recruited displaced people, and traveled overseas, as if he was the king of Liaodong.

Such an enterprising person, he will never sit still, when Xu Huang's 50,000 army has not yet arrived in Xiangping, Gongsun Du has already assembled soldiers and horses, ready to surprise Xu Huang.

But. The ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, the Beiwei army under Su Chen has rolled down from the battlefield, and the large and small battle formations have been experienced no less than ten times, although the county soldiers under the command of Gongsun Du have some combat effectiveness, but the two armies are head-on and killed, and they are by no means the opponents of the Beiwei army.

The battle that took place outside Xiangping City was earth-shattering, and finally ended with the defeat of Gongsun Du, who knew that Xiangping was no longer defendable, and immediately went to Lelang County with the remnants of the defeated army.

Xu Huang took advantage of the situation to occupy Xiangping, and the rest of the counties learned that Gongsun Du was defeated and fled, and they all sent Xu Huang a surrender table, Xu Huang reported to Su Chen on the one hand, and on the other hand, he rectified the place and appeased the people, and did not rush to pursue Gongsun Du, which also gave Gongsun Du a way to live.

After Su Chen received Xu Huang's good news, he immediately ordered him to send 10,000 soldiers who were proficient in jungle warfare to be stationed in Xi'an Ping to prevent Gongsun Du from counterattacking, and Su Chen also rushed to Xiangping in person to preside over the overall situation.
