But at this time and then, Li Yi has now broken through the barrier, and Cao Cao heard the wind and sent the letter to Qingzhou, wanting to divide Xuzhou with him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xuzhou is a temptation for Li Yi, but this is a tasteless region and a pity to abandon. Because the battle line is stretched too long, it is easy for the opponent to break through the defensive line. In order to determine whether to go to war, Li Yi and others launched a heated debate. In the end, Li Yi's opinion prevailed, and he insisted on maintaining his existing alliance with Cao Cao, deciding to help him capture Xuzhou even if he gained nothing.

Yu Bing and the others had no choice but to give in, nodding and agreeing to send troops to Xuzhou. In the end, Zhang Ying said: "This battle is not unprofitable, even if we don't get the territory, there are still a few fierce generals and many advisers waiting for us to capture." ”

Yes, Lu Bu needless to say, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are all good talents, even Cao Xing and Zang Ba are rare generals. And Chen Gong, Chen Deng, Chen Qun, etc. are all first-class ministers, and Mi Zhu, Sun Qian, etc. are also talented rulers.

After reaching a unanimous opinion, Li Yi replied with a letter, planning that as long as Cao Cao sent troops, he would raise the army of Qingzhou and attack Lu Bu on both sides.

Cao Cao beat Zhang Xiu's loss of soldiers, after a period of recuperation, the preparation work has been almost completed, the west attack on Zhang Xiu broke his army, the fierce general Hu Che'er, and the coveted Wancheng, but the fly in the ointment, Zhang Xiu went north to take refuge in Yuan Shao.

The west side has come to an end, and when the time is ripe, you can attack Liu Biao in Jingzhou. But Jingzhou is not so easy to fight. The northern half is basically in the hands of Cao Cao, but there is a Yangtze River moat in southern Jingzhou.

If you want to capture Jingzhou, you must solve your worries, otherwise you can only hit the Yangtze River and give up halfway. In this way, another powerful mortal enemy is added, which is extremely detrimental to him in the world.

The first worry is the sworn enemy Lu Bu, this kid once caused a big mess in his Yanzhou, and kidnapped Cao Cao's close friend Chen Gong.

With the lessons of the last confrontation to learn from, Cao Cao felt that it would be difficult to shake the stable Xuzhou with his own strength, and Li Yi was outside Xuzhou, his ambition was not small, and he had been peeping at Xuzhou for a long time, and he would be able to cooperate. Sure enough, Li Yi readily agreed.

Cao Cao led an army of 50,000 and brought Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Hu Che'er, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generals, and the army entered Xuzhou.

There are fierce generals such as Xu Chu and Dian Wei to open the way, and of course the initial momentum is like a bamboo, and the two counties of Pengcheng and Xiapi are in a hurry. The distress letter flew to Tancheng like snowflakes. Faced with the crisis-ridden situation, Lu Bu finally couldn't sit still, he entrusted Donghai County to Chen Jue, Chen Deng's father and son, and led the army to personally recruit to rescue Xiapi.

Of course, Li Yi did not move at the beginning, and only in this way could Lu Bu relax his vigilance. Lü Bu ignored the threat from the direction of Qingzhou, but he had the great strategist Chen Gong, who suggested that Lü Bu fortify in Langya.

Even if Lu Bu goes all out to meet the battle, he can only hope to fight with Cao Cao for an invincible and undefeated ending, if he divides his troops and defends it, without waiting for Li Yi to send out the army, his southern front will be routed and retreated.

In the face of Lu Bu's worries, Chen Deng gave another strategy, went to Yuan Shu in Huainan for help, and begged him to fight against the strong enemy.

This strategy is really good, between the relationship between the lips and the teeth, Yuan Shu really agreed. Therefore, Lü Bu drew part of his forces, led by Gao Shun, and set up a defensive line in the north of Langya.

When the news of Lu Bu's departure from Tancheng reached Li Yi's ears, he decisively commanded 20,000 horses and horses, and broke into the Langya Kingdom in Xuzhou with lightning speed.

Li Yi's tactic was to break into the enemy's interior and temporarily abandon supplies. He saw Li Yi capture several cities in a row, and finally gave up the strategy of guarding the border and waved his troops south to find Li Yi for a decisive battle.

This is in Li Yi's arms, for the battle of the fortification, anyone is painful, but the field is what Li Yi is best at, he adopted the old method, set up an ambush on the road that Gao Shun must pass, hit him on the head, and then surrounded Yu Bing and Zhang Ying, not only annihilated Gao Shun's army, but also captured the main general alive.

"Brother Yanping, Lu Bu is already at the end of the strong crossbow, and under the attack between me and Cao Gong, he will inevitably lose a lot, why don't the general abandon the darkness and surrender to me, Li Yi?"

"Li Yi, don't daydream, I, Gao Shun, will not betray, you still have to die of this heart."

"Okay, I have backbone, I, Li Yi, like such an upright and loyal person the most." Li Yi actually showed a look of joy: "Take General Gao down, don't treat him slowly." ”

Whether Gao Shun surrenders or not has nothing to do with the overall situation, looking at the departure of this general loyal to Lu Bu, Zhang Ying smiled slightly and said: "Wave the army to the south, and the troops will go straight to Tancheng." ”

"Tancheng? This city is the seat of Xuzhou, the city defense is extremely strong, and there are Chen's father and son guards, I am afraid it will not be sustainable. Li Yi showed a puzzled look.

"It is because of the guards of the Chen family and his son that I am more than half sure that this city will be under my control."

"Ying'er has any clever plan, don't sell Guanzi, come and pour beans in a bamboo tube, and say it quickly."

"I can first repair a book, explain the current situation, and then show the elite division under the city of Tanxian County, am I afraid that Chen Jue and Chen Deng will not dedicate the city to welcome my brother into the city?"

"Chen Qi is Tao Qian's old subordinate, and Chen Deng is a young upstart, this father and son are finally the former state pastor, but they may not be loyal to Lu Bu." Yu Bing smiled.

"Yes, I hope that these two people can understand the current affairs, conform to the will of heaven and the people, and dedicate the city without a fight." Li Yi said with a hint of worry on his face.

With the capture of Gao Shun, the remaining cities of Langya Kingdom were all occupied by Li Yi in a day, Zhao Yun guarded Qingzhou unharmed, and Langya State bordered Cao Cao's Yanzhou, which was naturally foolproof.

After the rear was settled, Li Yi had the courage to march into Donghai County. The shadow of the famous tree of people, Li Yi is like the sky, wherever his army goes, all the counties and towns surrender to the city, and this elite division will soon enter the city under Tancheng.

"Chen Qi and Chen Deng greet the late arrival, and hope that General Li will forgive his sins." Sure enough, after discussion, the Chen father and son believed that Li Yi's soldiers were strong and strong, and his conquest of Xuzhou was the trend of the times, and resisting it could only harm the people and make the Holy Spirit miserable. Therefore, the father and son decided to open the city gate to welcome Li Yi into the city.

"There are virtuous fathers and sons in Xuzhou, which is the blessing of all the people!" Li Yi smiled and took the hands of the two, and the intimate conversation and laughter with them became lively.

Hand in hand with Chen's father and son, Li Yi led Zhang Ying, Yu Bing, and Fan Chan into Xuzhou City, and the army temporarily rested for a day, and then left Tancheng to Chen Deng and Chen Qi as it was.
