In Huaxia 195, in mid-November, when he got the news that Yuan Shao had given up Xuzhou, Liu Tai was not in a hurry to go south to occupy Xuzhou, because Liu Tai knew that although Xuzhou was at his fingertips, Xuzhou was a big state after all, and even if Yuan Shao wanted to give up, he would leave some behind. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info At that time, the horse will lose its front hooves is small, but in case there are too many casualties and horses, then Liu Tai will be a little reluctant.

And when Liu Tai steadily sent various legions into the major counties of Xuzhou in batches, there was another news from the north, the grassland that had been calm for many years began to stir up again, and the object of the turmoil was the northeast, and Goguryeo, which had been suppressed by the Tianci army, was ready to move again, and wanted to sneak attack the northeast where most of the soldiers and horses had been transferred south.

Of course, Goguryeo is just a clown jumping beam, Liu Tai doesn't care too much, if Goguryeo really has to move an inch, Liu Tai does not recommend completely destroying Goguryeo, now Goguryeo has been suppressed by the Tianci army for many years, there are few soldiers and horses left, and even the royal city is under the control of the Tianci army, as long as Liu Tai has the heart, he can completely exterminate Goguryeo by mobilizing three or four legions at will!

At the same time, the news of the Western Regions also spread to the northern Xinjiang, according to the appeal of the Zhang, the current situation in the Western Regions has stabilized, most of the countries were sent to Middle-earth because of the royal family, so that the Western Regions completely became leaderless, and at this time, Zhao Yun strongly absorbed the last power of various countries and truly controlled the entire territory of the Western Regions.

It is worth mentioning that the reason why Zhao Yun completely conquered the Western Regions so easily was because he dragged Wen Chou's blessing, if it weren't for Wen Chou's wanton killing in the Western Regions, those people of the vassal country could be so afraid of the heaven-sent army, could they not resist? Some people may say that where there is oppression, there will be resistance, but imagine that the forces between the two sides are completely disproportionate, and the heaven-sent army has not yet declined, and the people of the Western Regions have the ability to resist?

In 195 years in China, December is another year in the blink of an eye, this year should be considered relatively calm, although there have been several battles in Xuzhou and Yuzhou, but they are all small-scale, as for other places, except for Yizhou, it can be described as extremely calm.

The rare calm gave the people a glimmer of hope for the rule of the world, and now most of the Central Plains is under Liu Tai's control, and the only ones that remain in the hands of Cao Ying and Yuan Shao are the eastern part of Yuzhou and the Lianghuai region, as well as the nominally controlled southern part of Xuzhou.

In fact, most of the southern part of Xuzhou has been occupied by the Tianci army, and only Xiapi County is still resisting stubbornly, Xiapi is Yuan Shao's territory, although Yuan Shao has arrived in the Lianghuai region, but he still has very ideas about Xiapi, if he is not forced to do so, Yuan Shao is absolutely reluctant to give up the rich Xiapi.

After the large army evacuated Xuzhou, Yuan Shao was arranged by Cao Ying to be stationed in Xiquyang, because he knew that Yuan Shao gave up Xuzhou, and the follow-up money and grain would definitely not stop, so at present, all the supplies of Yuan's army were in charge of Lianghuai. The 150,000 army was stationed on the line from Xiquyang to Yinling, forming a powerful defense system in the eastern part of Huaibei, and if the strength of the Cao army in the western part of Huaibei was added, there were nearly 400,000 coalition troops in the north of Shouchun alone!

With such a huge scale, the amount of grain and grass consumed per day can be described as astronomical, and the Lianghuai region can still ensure the supply of the whole army, which shows that the Lianghuai has a lot of money. You must know that at this moment, Cao Ying not only has to ensure the money and grain of the nest, but also the grain and grass of the Cao army in eastern Henan and the materials needed by the reinforcements from Yangzhou to the north!

As early as a few months ago, Liu Bei had sent 60,000 sailors north to Wujiang to station. The water division is not easy to cultivate, from the northern Xinjiang for so many years the size of the water division has been controlled at 120,000 can be imagined, you know, these 60,000 water division is not the water division army personally commanded by Kong Yun in Yizhou, but the reserve troops that Liu Bei has accumulated little by little over the years, if it were not for Liu Tai's big move south, Liu Bei would still be reluctant to take out all his family resources.

Everyone knows that the Tianci Army has an extremely powerful naval fleet, and this fleet will obviously play in this battle, if there is not enough resistance on the part of the coalition forces, wouldn't it let the Tianci Army Naval Division enter a no-man's land in the rear of the two Huai? Under such an unfavorable situation, Liu Bei naturally could only bite the bullet and pull the sailor troops into the battlefield.

As for victory or defeat, Liu Bei didn't think about it at all, Liu Bei just thought about how long his army could resist the Tianci Army Naval Division, and minimize the losses of the Jiangdong Naval Division! As long as he can block the Tianci Army and Water Division, then the battle situation on land has nothing to do with Liu Bei. You must know that Liu Bei has already prepared a way to retreat, and the sailor army is related to Liu Bei's surname, if he can, Liu Bei is absolutely unwilling to send this sailor army to the battlefield.

Cao Ying is very helpless, and Lianghuai is very tired! Although the Lianghuai region is known as the lifeblood of the Central Plains, after all, under the influence of disasters in recent years, there have been many losses. Now the war is about to start in the two Huai locals, the impact on the local people of the two Huai is very great, according to statistics, when the Tianci army entered Xuzhou, there was a large-scale migration event in the two Huai areas.

Of course, these people were not afraid of the arrival of the Tianci army, but worried about being affected by the war, most of them were people from some towns north of Shouchun, the number was about 70,000, and these people moved to the Yanzhou area in order to avoid being affected by the war, or simply hid in the mountains to avoid disaster.

The year 196, the first year of the January New Year, was supposed to be full of festive questions. But at this moment, countless people in northern Xinjiang, including the Central Plains, can not celebrate, because everyone knows that Xuzhou and Yuzhou will start a war of unprecedented scale in the near future, and how many of them will die because of this war, no one knows, you know, the millions of soldiers and horses between the two sides can be said to be related to all the people in the world, and no one wants their relatives to be killed or injured in the war!

In the same month, the Tianci army that went south from Qingzhou broke through Xiapi City, and the battle completely announced that Xuzhou had changed hands. And Liu Tai, who got Xuzhou, completely radiated the entire Central Plains, as long as the eastern part of Yuzhou was taken into his hands, then the entire Central Plains would be in the hands of Liu Tai.

The two Huai are divided into Huainan and Huaibei, and Cao Ying's actual territory is in Huainan. Huainan is logically within the scope of Yangzhou, that is, it should not be classified into the Central Plains. However, this time, the Tianci army went south on a large scale, and it was naturally impossible to only occupy the eastern part of Yuzhou and Xuzhou. And Huainan is located in the north of the Yangtze River, occupying Huainan, which means that Liu Tai has completely mastered all the areas north of the Yangtze River!

In 196 Huaxia, in February, the second month of Xuzhou's change of ownership, the situation of Cao's army in eastern Yuzhou became worse and worse. Gao Shun sent the general Hua Xiong to lead 30,000 troops to attack Ancheng, the seat of Yuzhou. Ancheng is not only the seat of Yuzhou, but also the fief of Cao Ying and the seat of the county of Runan, if Ancheng falls into the hands of the Tianci army, then Cao Ying's control of Runan will definitely collapse!

Therefore, Cao Ying could not afford to lose, in order to defend Ancheng, Cao Ying stationed all the soldiers and horses in the east of Yuzhou around Ancheng. As a result, Anseong's defenses suddenly became like iron buckets. But no matter how tightly defended it is, without enough quality, it is still impossible to resist the footsteps of the heaven-sent army.

You must know that the number of elite soldiers in the Lianghuai region is no more than 100,000 at most, and in order to resist Liu Tai's headquarters in Qingzhou's south, how could Cao Ying arrange the elite on the eastern Henan line? Yuzhou is lost, at least Cao Ying's foundation is still there, but Shouchun is lost, then Cao Ying will become Yuan Shao's brother and brother, and become a lost dog.

Therefore, the 100,000 soldiers and horses in eastern Henan are not elite troops at all, they can only be regarded as a combination of trained county soldiers and eliminated elites. How can such an army resist a wolf-like God-given army? And this Tianci army is still under the command of Hua Xiong!

It is conceivable that the Battle of Ancheng fell on one side, although Cao Ying sent his brother Cao Ren to sit in eastern Henan, but under the absolute power, Cao Ren could not resist the Tianci army.

Defeated!

Completely defeated, Cao's army not only lost Ancheng, but even many surrounding cities and counties fell into the hands of the Tianci army one after another, and after Cao Ren collected the defeated army, the number of remnants was less than 70,000. In the first battle, Cao's army lost 30,000 soldiers and horses, and by the way, it also lost such an important strategic base as Ancheng, so you can imagine how depressed Cao Ying and Cao's generals were.

At the same time, Cao Ren's hatred for Huaxiong has skyrocketed!

If Cao Ren was defeated in the hands of Gao Shun, Cao Ren would never dare to mutter, but in this battle, it was Hua Xiong with developed limbs and a simple mind who defeated Cao Ren, so could Cao Ren not be angry? At the same time, Cao Ren also lost his mind

What Cao Ren didn't know was that the ostensible commander of the Battle of Anseong was Hua Xiong, but the actual commander was the military advisor Pang Tong!

And the reason why Pang Tong didn't show up was to anger Cao Ren. Over the years, the Tianci Army has not fought too much with the Cao Army, even in the Northern Henan Campaign, Cao Ren has not been sent by Cao Ying, which has led to Cao Ren's subconscious belief that there are only a few generals of the Tianci Army, and as for Hua Xiong and others, they are just brave and brave.

But now that Cao Ren, who feels good about himself, has actually lost in the hands of Hua Xiong, can Cao Ren still keep his sanity? And at present, the situation between the two Huai is tense, and it is impossible for Cao Ying to take care of Cao Ren at all, even if Cao Ren is defeated in Ancheng, it is impossible for Cao Ying to temporarily change generals.

And an enemy general who has lost his mind is not the favorite of the Tianci Army? Cao Ren, who is now resisting stubbornly in eastern Henan, is worse than a grasshopper in the eyes of Pang Tong, and with a little tricking, Pang Tong believes that when the Tianci army attacks Huainan, the Tianci army from Yuzhou appears on the Huainan battlefield to flank Cao's army!

In Huaxia 196, Pang Tong miscalculated in March! When Pang Tong thought that it was impossible for Cao Ying to send a general, Cao Ying actually sent his brother Xiahou Yuan and the general to Ban 30,000 troops into Ruyang City to assist Cao Ren in garrisoning the eastern Henan region.

No one could have imagined that in the face of the threat of the 300,000 Tianci army in Xuzhou, Cao Ying actually dared to divide the troops, you know, the terrifying combat power of the 300,000 Tianci army is unimaginable, and now Shouchun's defense strength is just a thin paper in front of the Tianci army.

Others don't talk about it for the time being, but Xiahoudun is the real number one general of Cao Jun. Although Xiahoudun was defeated in the hands of Yan Liang in the past, in terms of personal force, Xiahoudun was not defeated, and in the ranking of the armed forces in northern Xinjiang, Huaxiong was not as good as Yan Liang, that is to say, Huaxiong was not Xiahoudun's opponent at all.

Although the other Cao Jiang Ban is not famous, Liu Tai, who is in Xuzhou, knows that Yu Ban is a very good hand at marching and fighting, and he is a general that Cao Ying relies on very much in history.

Of course, Liu Tai did not think that he would be able to recover the eastern part of Yuzhou and the southern part of Yuzhou so quickly, after all, these two places are densely populated areas, after Cao Ying's rule for several years, it can be described as impregnable, and it is impossible to take it in a short time, if it is not so, Liu Tai will not arrange 200,000 Tianci troops in Yuzhou, you know, even if Cao Jun adds 30,000 reinforcements, there will be 130,000!

More to bully less!

This incident didn't happen to Liu Tai much, and it can be seen from here that Liu Tai was cautious about Cao Ying. Cao Ying has always been regarded as a big problem by Liu Tai, if the strength, strength, and combat power of the two sides are equal, Liu Tai and Cao Ying will even lack confidence in the battlefield.

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, no matter how history evaluates Cao Ying, but Cao Ying is at least the founding master of an empire. How many people can there be in history? Count and count, that's just a few, and Cao Ying happens to be among them.

There are too many variables in Cao Ying's life, and it can also be said that there is more Liu Bei's nemesis, if it weren't for Liu Bei, the end of the Han Dynasty would definitely be unified twenty years in advance, and if there was no Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu in the Battle of Chibi in history, Cao Ying would definitely be able to dominate the world, and after the unification of the world, there would be no Three Kingdoms, which would consume the vitality of Huaxia and make the foreign tribes take the opportunity to invade during the Jin Dynasty.

And at the moment, Liu Tai's opponent is Cao Ying, the founder of the country, if Cao Ying is defeated, Liu Tai believes that there will be no difficulties on the road to the unification of the world, after all, the current situation is not like history, Liu Tai is not a Han thief, but the orthodoxy of the Han family!

The hearts of the people are in Han!

In 196 years of China, as expected, in April, since Xiahoudun and Yu Ban entered the eastern part of Yuzhou, the offensive of the Tianci army slowed down, even if Gao Shun, who was sitting in the rear, sent Zhu Jun, Pang De and other generals again and again, there was no way to do anything about the eastern Henan region like an iron bucket.

Of course, if the Tianci army can afford it, the eastern and southern regions of Yuzhou will be the Tianci army sooner or later, after all, the combat power of the 200,000 Tianci army is too terrifying. But if the Tianci army wants to implement Pang Tong's plan and break the western barrier of Huainan before Liu Tai attacks Huainan, then it will have to come up with some good ideas to work.
