When he woke up again, Gao Tang found that he was already lying in a ruin, and the piercing pain almost made him unconscious again, and he struggled to get up, but sadly found that his hands and feet were gone, leaving only a blur of flesh and blood, and the white bones of the forest were faintly visible.

How so? Gao Tanglong's mind went blank, and he couldn't figure out what was going on anyway. The soldiers of the Jing Army pounced on them like tigers and wolves, hunting for human heads in the ruins, each of which was a ladder for their advancement.

A soldier found Takashi Takashi who only breathed in the rubble, and the armor on Takashi Takashi proved that he was at least a high-ranking official, and the soldier was so excited that he stepped forward and cut off Takashi Takashi with a single sword.

Outside the city, Zhang Liao sat on a cyan sweaty horse, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Xiapi City is solid, that is for the Jing army, for the Wei army, it is as fragile as a piece of tissue paper, Zhang Liao only needs to move his fingers, and the city wall of Xiapi City will be in ruins in an instant.

It turned out that when the Jing army withdrew from Xiapi, a large amount of gunpowder had already been planted under the western city wall of Xiapi, and at this moment the Jing army did not need to attack the city at all, as long as the fuse was lit and there was a loud bang, the rock-solid city wall would be reduced to nothing. Of course, such a top-secret matter was only known to Liu Ze and Pan Feng, who was in charge of installing gunpowder, and even Zhang Liao only learned the news before he set out on the expedition, so it was not surprising that Gao Tanglong died in a mess.

After the city was broken, the Wei soldiers were frightened, under the offensive of the Jing army like a tide, the fighting spirit quickly collapsed, and the street fighting lasted less than an hour before it ended, and tens of thousands of Wei troops were taken prisoner, including Qingzhou Thorn Shi and Donghai Governor Yu Ban.

Yu Ban was brought to Zhang Liao, dejected. A look of frustration. Zhang Liao did not embarrass Yu Ban, and the Jing Army's preferential treatment of prisoners allowed Yu Ban to keep Xiang Shang's head without having to lie on the ground and beg for his life.

Zhang Liao ordered the generals of the Ban and the East China Sea Governor's Department to put them in a prisoner car and escort them to Wuchang.

Among the captives, Zhang Liao also found Mi Fang and Fu Shiren, who had defected to the enemy, who were not reused in Cao Wei and could only be idle officials with no power and position. After the Jing army broke the city, they could only be captured with their hands tied and brought to Zhang Liao, their faces were colorless, and even their intestines were repentant.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had a fatal relationship, and Gao Shun died that year, all because of these two people. Not only Zhang Liao, but even Zhang Liao's personal soldiers wanted to fight for his flesh. However, Zhang Liao still has the demeanor of a general, he knows that Mi Fang is Liu Ze's second uncle no matter how he says, and how to deal with Mi Fang has to be decided by Liu Ze.

Then the army entered Xuzhou City, repaired the city wall, and came out of the list to settle the people.

Since Jian'an evacuated Xuzhou in the ninth year, it has been five full years, and Liu Ze's troops have finally fought back. Zhang Liao's grim face could not hide his excitement, and the soldiers of the Jing army cheered. Many soldiers have gone out from here, Xuzhou is their roots, their homeland, returning to their homeland, the excitement is indescribable.

Helplessly, the flowers fell, and the familiar swallow returned.

Shortly after entering the city. The Eastern Wu side sent Lu Fan as an envoy to come, and Zhang Liao welcomed him in politely and set up a banquet to entertain him, but the atmosphere of the banquet was very cold.

Lu Fan first congratulated Jingjun on his victory in Xuzhou, and then put forward it euphemistically. Xuzhou was the dowry when Liu Ze married the county lord Sun Shangxiang, hoping that Zhang Liao could return Xuzhou City to the Eastern Wu side.

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Liao's face suddenly became gloomy, and he sneered and said: "Back then, it was true that my lord took Xuzhou as a dowry, but Marquis Wu couldn't hold Xuzhou and let Cao Cao take it away, and this Xuzhou has already changed hands." Today, Xuzhou was taken from Cao Cao, not from Jiangdong, and the capture of Xuzhou, our army suffered a lot of casualties, and the blood and tears of the soldiers exchanged for Xuzhou were handed over to people in vain, even if Zhang had a heart, I was afraid that thousands of soldiers would not agree! ”

Lu Fan was speechless, and said nemesly: "Jiangdong and King Jing's alliance should be in the same breath and fight against Cao thief, if Governor Zhang Dadu insists on forcibly occupying Xuzhou, our army has no way to go north, I am afraid that it will ruin the Northern Expedition of King Jing." ”

Zhang Liao said coldly: "Previously, this governor had already subdivided the governor of Zhou, and our army was willing to send troops to assist the governor of Zhou to take Xuzhou, but unfortunately the governor of Zhou did not admit this and intended to take the credit alone." This governor has given you a chance, but you have not cherished it, and now that Xuzhou has recovered, you want to come and get a piece of the pie, there is such a good thing in the world? Zhou Yu's wishful thinking is too shrewd, right? ”

Lu Fan was speechless, so he had to say goodbye and leave, and returned to Huaiyin to return to Zhou Yu.

After hearing this, Zhou Yu was furious and said: "Zhang Liao is too deceitful! Immediately, the troops rushed straight to Suiling, and confronted the Jing army across the river from Xiapi, and for a while the two sides were tense, and the air in Xuzhou suddenly became tense.

┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄

Liu Ze received an urgent report from Xuzhou, and couldn't help frowning, the Northern Expedition had just begun, and Zhang Liao and Zhou Yu almost got into a fight, which one was singing? Although Liu Ze knew very well that the foundation of the Sun-Liu alliance was quite unstable, it was not fragile.

"Wen Yuan's conquest of Xuzhou this time also paid a painstaking effort and price, not to mention that emotionally speaking, Xuzhou is the birthplace of the lord, so it is difficult for him to give Xu to others no matter what, and it is not surprising to meet Zhou Yu." Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and said with a smile.

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and I will reply to Wenyuan, asking him to focus on the overall situation, and now our enemy is still Cao Cao, and we must concentrate a force to fight a decisive battle with Cao Cao. Liu Ze pondered for a moment, and then said, "Xiapi can not be allowed for the time being, and the counties of Siwu, Xiaxiang, Quyang, Donghai County, and Pengcheng County east of Xiapi may as well give Zhou Yu a passage to the north, leaving Zhou Yu a passage to the north." In the next step, Sanye will attack Runan, and Yanzhou will be handed over to Zhou Yu to fight. ”

Zhuge Liang nodded, Liu Ze's arrangement is very reasonable, now the decisive battle with Cao Cao has reached a critical moment, it is true that it can no longer be extraneous, once there is a conflict with Zhou Yu, it will undoubtedly drag the back of the main force of the Jing army, and Cao Cao's decisive battle in the Central Plains is the top priority, and the other qiē must make some sacrifices, it is a pity to give up Xuzhou, but it can win the support of Jiangdong, at least one less enemy.

"What the lord said is very true, the minister will draft the document and send it to Xuzhou immediately."

Liu Zedao: "This time Zhang Liao's Sanye table xiàn is excellent, captured alive and forbidden, and broke Cao Cao's Qingxu garrison of 200,000, which can be regarded as cutting off one of Cao Cao's arms. In addition, the second field and the fourth field table xiàn are also extraordinary, Guan Yu beheaded Li Dian in Fancheng, Zhang Ren hit Xiahoudun in Bingzhou, since the expedition, all the people and horses have won many battles, outstanding meritorious service, and were given a general order commendation. Now Cao Cao is already shrinking his troops, and the decisive battle is inevitable, and I hope that all departments will make persistent efforts and spread the good news! ”

The loss of Fancheng and Xuzhou was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Cao Cao's southern defense line, and in the face of the advancing Jing army from all walks of life, Cao Cao had already changed his defensive strategy, from comprehensive defense to key defense, shrinking his forces, and defending Xudu. Under this new strategy, Hangu Pass and Luoyang became the targets of Cao Cao's abandonment, although these two critical places were the key points to prevent Liu Ze from advancing eastward from Tongguan, but the collapse of the southern defense line made Cao Cao unable to operate the Hanluo defense line anymore, and how to defend Xu Du was the most important thing.

The enemy retreated and I advanced, Liu Ze personally led the army to cross the Hangu Pass, into a vast Luoyang City, the once prosperous and prosperous capital is already full of artemisia grass at this moment, only the ruins of the wall remain, it has been eighteen years since the last time I saw Luoyang City, Liu Ze couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Zhuge Liang quickly finished writing the paperwork, remembered something again, put down his pen, and said: "Wenyuan also captured Mi Fang and Fu Shiren in Xuzhou, he is not good at making judgments, please tell the lord how to deal with it?" ”

"According to military law, there is no need to look at anyone's face, the prince violates the law, and he is also guilty of the same crime as the common people!" Liu Ze is categorical. (To be continued......)
