Chapter 53: The Battle of Qingzhou (Ask for Recommendation)

Chapter 53 Qingzhou Battle Situation (Ask for Recommendation)

The sky is full of red glow, and the scorching sun slanted into Fusang in the west.

Qingzhou Qi State Panyang County ten miles away.

Liu Yu led three thousand Yanyun iron horsemen to quietly watch the city in front of them, more than three thousand people were all silent, and even the war horses under their crotches only occasionally made a low neighing sound, giving people a huge sense of oppression in the slaughter.

"Driving" a Yanyun iron horse galloped from the direction of Banyang County, came to Liu Yu's front and quickly turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee and reported: "Hou Ye, it's ready, General Zhang asked his subordinates to come and send troops to attack the city." ”

"Get up." Liu Yu raised his hand to help him, and after speaking, he raised his eyes to look at the looming city in front of him, and waved his hand indifferently: "Go, break through this city, drive." As he spoke, he galloped towards Banyang County.

"Boom Boom" three thousand Yanyun iron horses, each riding two horses, a total of more than 6,000 war horses galloped vertically and horizontally, the whole earth was trembling with sorrow, the roar that resounded in the sky, instantly shattered the tranquility of Panyang County.

Out of the north gate of Banyang County, more than a dozen burly figures, wearing official uniforms, holding spears, exuding a cold air all over their bodies, at first glance, they were just officers and soldiers who had seen blood, but they were tied with yellow scarves on their heads and told others that these people were not official soldiers, but Yellow Turban Army, and since there was a Yellow Turban Army guarding the city gate, it was obvious that the city on the far left of Qi State had been breached.

In addition to more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers at the city gate, there are hundreds of lazy Yellow Turban soldiers standing at the city head, at the city gate, there is a famous ragged man entering the city with a noisy voice, among these people, there are many burly strong men mixed in, tense with the crowd slowly into the city.

At this moment, there was a roar, and the whole earth trembled, and even the dilapidated city walls were falling dust and gravel, and the whole city gate was in chaos in an instant.

"It's the cavalry, the cavalry of the brigade, close the city gate for me." A loud roar came from the city wall, instantly breaking the sanity of the displaced people below, and under the shout of unknown people, dozens of displaced people had red eyes, and rushed towards the city with a crazy face, instantly breaking open the city gate that was originally somewhat closed again.

"Damn, attack me, kill all those who dare to storm the city gates." On the city wall, a big man in leather armor and holding an iron sword roared wildly.

Just at the city gate, the iron guns in the hands of more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers just moved, and they were about to kill the killer, when the change reappeared, and the strong men mixed in the crowd did not know when they had quietly approached more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers, at this time, those strong men's temperament changed, and they were full of murderous energy, and the cold light flashed in their eyes to attack the throat, temples, hearts and other vital places of more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers.

In the sound of ** collision, broken bones, blood splattering, and bodies falling to the ground, more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers all fell to the ground, and more than a dozen strong men who killed the Yellow Turban picked up the weapons on the ground and rushed towards the city.

At the same time, when Zhang Fei, who had entered the city before, heard the roar of horses' hooves, he had already led nearly a hundred subordinates who had infiltrated the city to storm the city wall, and by the time Liu Yu led his troops to arrive, the north gate of Banyang City had been completely controlled by Zhang Fei.

"Rush, all four city gates are occupied." Looking at the wide-open city gate, Liu Yu indifferently commanded, and after speaking, he pulled the reins and led Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen towards the county office.

This is one of the tactics that Liu Yu and others have tried repeatedly, although the Yellow Turban Army rebelled, and there were some generals and officers and soldiers who were originally officials, but they were not willing, but in the final analysis, nine-tenths of the Yellow Turban Army were peasants, and it was simply a fool's dream to let these peasants have the quality of the army.

In addition, it is now the early stage of the outbreak of the Yellow Turban, and the leader Zhang Jiao is not dead, so the Yellow Turban Army is not out of control to become a robber, at this stage, the Yellow Turban Army still maintains a friendly attitude towards those homeless, and there are very few Yellow Turban Army that even the homeless people are killed, plus the communication in this era is very slow, which makes Liu Yu's strategy tried again and again.

Riding a horse and walking in the street, looking at the closed doors and windows, and then looking at the blood on the street that was not yet clear, Liu Yu sighed again, kicked the horse's belly lightly, and rushed towards the county government at an accelerated speed.

It has been a month since the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and now the imperial court has sent Lu Zhi and other three famous generals to divide their troops into three ways to destroy the Yellow Turbans, and the future princes from all over the country have also gathered soldiers and horses to join the rebel camp, and the notices issued by the imperial court to recruit volunteers to quell the rebellion have also been pasted all over the major counties, but after a month, most of the counties in the ten states led by Yizhou have fallen, and now even if there are reinforcements to join, they are also defeated and retreated under the power of the Yellow Turban Army.

In terms of the current situation in the world, if Liu Yu does not know history, then maybe even he will think that the Yellow Turban Uprising will succeed, but the peasant uprising is a peasant uprising, and it will never succeed, after all, people's psychology is the most complicated, and they are indignant when they are oppressed, but when they turn over one day, some people will become the object of their own desire to kill, and this situation, after a month of buffer, plus a bright future, has a tendency to break out.

When Liu Yu came to the county office, it had been occupied by a hundred Yanyun iron horsemen led by Xi Zhicai, and the yellow scarves that had occupied this place had been separated and lying on the ground.

Coming to the main hall, looking at Xi Zhicai who looked at all kinds of literature leisurely, Liu Yu quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, after these days of war, he found that he couldn't play anymore, at this juncture, for him, Xi Zhicai absolutely cannot afford to lose, in order to protect Xi Zhicai, every time, after Xi Zhicai came up with a countermeasure, he would let a hundred Yanyun iron horsemen protect Xi Zhicai, or stay away from the battlefield, or escape into the city to hide first.

With the help of the guards around him, he got rid of the bloodstained armor on his body, Liu Yu easily walked to the side of Xi Zhicai and sat on the ground, and asked with a smile: "Zhicai, how is it?" Has Qingzhou's intelligence been sorted out? ”

"Alright." Xi Zhicai knelt up straight, and said in a deep voice: "Qingzhou has six counties and sixty-five county seats, most of which are occupied by the Yellow Turbans, and the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou add up to more than 500,000, however, there are only 100,000 people who can fight in the First War, and these 100,000 people are divided into eight Yellow Turbans, which occupy various places respectively, and no one is co-ordinated together, the largest of which has 30,000 people, and its Qu Shuai is Guan Hai, stationed in Gaomi between Beihai and Donglai County. ”

"What's the matter?" Liu Yu pondered for a while, and kept comparing history in his mind, just thinking about it for a while, he figured it out, only a few yellow turbans in various states and counties have completed the unification, such as Bocai in Yingchuan, Zhang Mancheng, the divine envoy in Nanyang, and the three brothers Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, the prestige of these people in the yellow scarves is absolutely like Zhongtian, and Guan Hai is a few points worse than these people, whether it is reputation or wisdom, so there is no yellow scarf that unifies Qingzhou, even if a few years later, Guan Hai still does not unify Qingzhou's million yellow scarves, The other states and counties are not united.

And those places in Yingchuan are also the combat areas that Liu Yu deliberately avoids, after all, before he set out on the expedition, he had already prepared for the loss of Yanyun Iron Cavalry, but he didn't want to lose too much of these troops that he fed with gold for the sake of those dispensable military exploits, after all, Zhang Jiaobocai and the others' strategy was not bad, plus the amount that made his scalp tingle, he was stupid to drill where.

After thinking about it, Liu Yu asked: "Zhicai, what do you think of the battle situation in Qingzhou?" Any ideas? ”

"Lord, if the sweep of one place at a time takes too much time, and this is not conducive to the original goal, so the subordinates think that the troops can be divided into three routes, one route is coordinated by Zhang Fei, and lead a thousand Yanyun elite cavalry from the Qi country to pacify Pingyuan County; One route was led by General Xu Rong, starting from the State of Qi to crusade against the Kingdom of Anle; In the end, the lord led the remaining 1,000 elite cavalry to attack the Jinan Kingdom, and then the three roads in Beihai Zhishu Drama County Huihe, and finally settled Guanhai. Xi Zhicai said in a deep voice.

Looking at the arrogance on Xi Zhicai's face, and looking at the other party's demeanor of scolding Fang Qiong, Liu Yu's eyes couldn't help but show a smile, and he immediately said with a smile: "According to what Zhicai said, divide the troops into three ways to break the Qingzhou Yellow Turban." ”

In the following time, the two began to talk about the battle situation in the world, and this discussion did not stop until the arrival of Zhang Fei and Xu Rong, and the four of them discussed the counterinsurgency and route tomorrow before they dispersed to rest.

Liu Yu didn't pay attention to the problem of Banyang City, not that he didn't want to, but he didn't have the slightest official position, this counterinsurgency was just to participate as a rebel, and the counterinsurgency was okay, but if he pointed fingers at the county, it would be impossible to say, and even if he wanted to take care of it, he didn't have the time to take care of it.

The time of the night passed quickly, and Panyang County, which had experienced another bloody storm, fell into a dead silence, without a trace of noise, like a dead city

Early the next morning.

Liu Yu led a group of people to leave Banyang County, came to the south of the city, talked with Zhang Fei and the two of them, and watched the two lead Yan Yunjing to ride a horse away.

"Lord, are you worried that this war Yanyun Jingqi will be damaged?" Xi Zhicai looked at Liu Yu, who was looking at Zhang Fei and the others leaving with a worried look on his face, and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Liu Yu came back to his senses and knew that Xi Zhicai was worried about him, so he immediately smiled and relieved: "Don't worry, Zhicai, don't worry about me, how can war be immortal, the war of immortals is myth and fantasy, not reality." ”

After saying "driving", Liu Yu threw the reins and took the lead in the southeast direction.
