Chapter 355: Pei Guo is in hand

Outside Xiaopei City, corpses were everywhere, with broken weapons, battle flags, and armor everywhere, and the corpses of war horses were piled up on the ground. The Yuzhou army was defeated, and Chutian led the army to pursue, leaving Mi Fang and Wu Anguo to clean up the battlefield.

Of the 130,000 troops of the Yuzhou army, at least 40,000 or 50,000 were killed, and 20,000 or 30,000 Yuzhou soldiers were captured.

Xiaopei's officials and civilians witnessed the decisive battle between Xuzhou Mu and Yuzhou Mu, and they have not come back to their senses until now.

This battle was extremely tragic, the servant legion was almost exhausted, most of the casualties of the Tun cavalry battalion, and the tiger army also suffered casualties, and finally completely defeated the Yuzhou legion and expanded the results!

The only ones who didn't have many dead and wounded were Mi Fang and Wu Anguo, who were defending the city.

Mi Fang witnessed the tragic battle and knew that his level could not adapt to that level of decisive battle, so he was at ease his lieutenant general, sweeping the battlefield, and rubbing his military exploits.

The intensity of the battle under Xiaopei City has become white-hot. Names like Guo Ziyi and Feng Yi were charged by two heavy cavalry, and then they were defeated, and finally Wei Qing's light cavalry had to be invested to lay the victory, and the hole cards of both sides were exhausted. Mi Fang thought that if he was in the same position as Guo Ziyi and Feng Yi, it was estimated that he would not even be able to resist the charge of the Tun cavalry battalion.

In this battle, the injured generals on Chutian's side included Saint Joan of Arc and Gongsun Ao, not including Tai Shici and Zhao Yun, who were slightly injured by arrows.

It is said that Tang is far greater than the threat posed by Yuan Shu at the beginning.

So after defeating Shuo Tang, Chu Tian did not stop, went to hunt down Shuo Tang, and defeated Pei Guo by the way.

Peiguo belongs to Yuzhou, and at present, Chutian only occupies two counties, Pei County and Feng County. The real seat of Peiguo is in Xiang County.

If the entire Peiguo is taken, it is equivalent to Chutian having a bridgehead to attack Runan County.

In Xiangxian County, the defenders heard that Yuzhou Mu was defeated, and the people were panicked.

When it was said that Tang led the rout to retreat to Xiangxian, the lord of Xiangxian closed the city gate tightly and did not let Tang enter the city.

"The lord of Peiguo wants to betray me and surrender to Chu Zimou!"

It is useless to say that Tang faced the betrayal of the lord of Peiguo. After the defeat, his allies and men began to take sides again, and he could not stop it.

Losing a battle has a huge impact on a liege's reputation, and an otherwise staunch ally is not so reliable.

"Go back to Runan. Chu Zimou's elite division suffered at least 20,000 casualties in Xiaopei, and he no longer had the spare troops to annex Runan. It is better for him to pursue our territory, and if we cut off his food routes and retreats, he will be completely annihilated. After all, we have been operating in Runan for several years, and the people's hearts are available. ”

said that Tang bypassed the betrayed Xiangxian and returned to Runan, like a wounded lion, licking his wounds.

Guo Ziyi, Feng Yi, Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, Chen Zhi and other famous generals will hit a wall in Xiaopei and be disgraced. Although they have many soldiers and horses, they are not as elite as Xuzhou's soldiers and horses. This defeat is particularly unwilling.

said that Tang lacked the conditions to recruit the Xuanjia army, so he could only watch the Tun cavalry camp and the tiger army gallop.

Chu Tian's cavalry pursued all the way to Xiang County, and the lord of Xiang County heard that Chu Zimou personally led the team, so he led Pei Guo's subordinates out of the city to greet him.

The lord of Peiguo knelt on the ground and presented his hands with the seal of the country, indicating his surrender.

Chu Tian rode a high-headed horse and led the heavy cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army to surrender. The Tiger Ben Army's Jin Ge Iron Horse, with its pungent blood and gas, made the Peiguo family and its subordinates tremble.

Peiguo has always been under the jurisdiction of Yuzhou Thorn History and Yuzhou Mu, first surrendering to Kong Ling, then Yuan Shu, and then Tang. But from now on, it will be under the leadership of Xuzhou Mu.

Chutian accepted the surrender of the lord of Peiguo and officially included Peiguo in his sphere of influence.

Chu Tian annexed Dongping Kingdom and Pei Kingdom in one go, and Gongziwen surrendered, and he didn't know how many counties he already owned, at least more than ten counties.

The whole of Xuzhou, and in Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou, occupy the county state, and Chutian's power is equivalent to 2-3 states.

The lord of Peiguo was equivalent to the existence of Taishou in the power of the Tang Dynasty, and Chutian demoted it to a county order in a remote place to develop backward areas.

"The hearts of the people of Peiguo are unstable, and the white-robed army is left to guard Peiguo and resist Tang."

Chu Tian left the white-robed army that was still intact to guard Peiguo.

Except for the white-robed legions, which were still around 20,000 in number, the other legions suffered heavy losses. The servant corps and the tun cavalry battalion almost wiped out their establishment, and Mulan's reconnaissance corps faced Cheng Yanjin's attack alone, and there were currently less than 10,000 people, and the number of the five schools of the Northern Army was not much, only a few thousand people remained.

"Zijing, you stay in Peiguo, govern Peiguo, recruit 30,000 local young men as soldiers, and work with the white-robed army to resist the invading enemy."

After Chutian took Lu Su with him and cultivated Lu Su as his cronies, he decided to delegate Lu Su and let Lu Su learn to be independent.

Lu Su has no big problem governing a county state.

On the contrary, Lu Su was a little unconfident: "But Zijing is young, and I am afraid it will be difficult to take on a heavy responsibility." ”

"Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, not to mention Zijing followed me to pacify Mount Tai, Beihai, Peiguo, and expedition to Mobei, and was able to experience. If Zijing is not even afraid of marching and fighting, being born and dying, why should he be afraid to govern Peiguo? I arranged for Zijing to govern Peiguo, which is also a test for Zijing. If the Yuzhou Army invades again, please ask Zijing to join the army and break the enemy army with Chen Ziyun and Xue Rengui. ”

Chu Tian's full support made Lu Su relax.

Lu Su became the minister of Peiguo at the age of 18, attracting the attention of countless Peiguo officials.

Peiguo is equivalent to a city, an 18-year-old mayor, and a staff officer of the border guards, such treatment is simply envious of countless civilian officials, it can be said that it is a step to the sky, and it is not an exaggeration.

Sure enough, the people who usually follow Chu Tian's side will make up for it as soon as there is a vacancy in each county.

Unlike the sleek family disciples in Xuzhou, Lu Su took refuge in Chutian early, was influenced by Chutian, and was regarded as a cronie by Chutian. Although Lu Su is also a disciple of the Xuzhou family, Lu Su is a little different, he is more in favor of compromising the interests of all parties.

Chu Tian left Chen Qingzhi and Xue Rengui to guard Peiguo and took away Zhao Yun of the white-robed army.

He was going to turn his head against Cao Cao. Cao Cao had a fierce general Dian Wei under his command, and if he didn't bring a guard, Chu Tian would always be a little uneasy.

He ordered the Fifth Colonel of the Northern Army, the Tiger Army, the Servant Corps, and the Scout Corps to go to the Yanzhou battlefield, led by Wei Qing.

As for Chu Tian, he returned to Langya Country from Peiguo's Zhizhi Xiang County and used the teleportation array to return to Langya Kingdom. At the same time, he brought the injured Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Zhende, and Gongsun Ao back to Xia Cheng to recuperate.

Wei Qing led the legion from Yuzhou to Yanzhou, which took a period of time to march, and there was no need for Chutian to march with the army. He could use the teleportation array to reach Gongziwen's Jiyin County and directly reach the Yanzhou battlefield.

"You have a good life and recuperate, before you crusade against Cao Cao, you must take care of your injuries."

Chu Tian arranged a famous doctor for them.

Among them, Joan of Arc's injuries were the most serious, her legion was used as cannon fodder by Chu Tian, and as the main general, she was inevitably injured.

Her eyes were a little gloomy when she looked at Chu Tian. Chu Tian felt Joan of Arc's dissatisfaction, felt guilty, and thought that he would make up for it later.

Xia Liang met Chu Tian, she noticed Joan of Arc's gloomy expression, she asked Chu Tian in a low voice, "You pushed her down?" ”

"I swear to heaven that there will never be anything like that."

"Then why is her expression a little strange?"

"I guess I realized that I couldn't go back to France, and I did have some ...... of oppression on her Excessive ......"

Chu Tian naturally knew where the problem of Joan of Arc arose.

"I'm trying to reassure her that she's hurt during this time, so don't keep pushing her to fight."

Summer cool managed to appease Joan of Arc.

Dealing with women's affairs, Chu Tian was really not good at it, so he handed over Joan of Arc to Xia Liang for training.

Xia Liang heard Chu Tian talk about the battle of Xiaopei again, and Chu Tian deliberately omitted to personally lead the Tiger Ben Army to battle.

She was surprised: "I thought that the Xiang Guild would choose Qingye to strengthen the wall and consume the morale of the Yuzhou army, but I didn't expect that it would choose to fight Tang head-on under Xiaopei City." ”

Chu Tian coughed lightly: "I just want to defeat Tang as soon as possible and turn back to deal with Cao Cao." Cao Cao has been suppressed by me for two years, it's time to eliminate him, absolutely, definitely not for ......"

In the summer, it was obvious that the arrogant Chutian wanted to return to Xia Cheng to accompany her. Otherwise, it would not have come back in a hurry after the end of the battle of Xiaopei.

Although Cao Cao is indeed very unlucky.

"I don't know if it's a man or a woman. If it's a woman, it's the same for me, but that guy Fang Xuanling is probably going to make trouble for me again. ”

In a sense, Chu Tian was really afraid that Fang Xuanling would keep finding him a new harem.

……

Hedong County, Baibo Valley, the golden fire cavalry galloped by, and Meng Tian went into battle in heavy armor, revealing only a pair of sharp eyes. The peasant army that fell under his halberd numbered in the dozens.

The Golden Fire Cavalry terrifies the White Polish Army!

Just like the shock brought to the Yuzhou army by the Tiger Army and the heavy cavalry of the Tun Cavalry Battalion, the ragged Baibo Army had no resistance in front of the Golden Fire Cavalry, and faced a one-sided slaughter!

Yang Feng and Han Xian are like local chickens and dogs in front of the brave generals of the Qin Dynasty!

"How can a weak peasant army be an opponent of my elite cavalry."

Meng Tian scoffed at fighting a weak peasant army. With Meng Tian's arrogance, unless the other party is an elite division, he can raise his fighting spirit.

"Helpless!"

Lu Bu and Xu Huang, the first fierce general of the White Wave Army, fought, Fang Tian's halberd slashed and stabbed violently, and the tiger was vigorous! Xu Huang used the Kaishan axe to fight for dozens of rounds, but gradually lost his strength and was knocked off the horse by Lu Bu!

Although Lu Bu's exclusive weapon was taken away by Xue Rengui, he made a king-level Fang Tian Painting Halberd as a weapon, and he was also brave and unparalleled.

"The lord has a word, spare his life!"

Li Dao stopped Lu Bu, who wanted to kill Xu Huang.

"Such a weak person, what's the use of keeping him, the Ming Duke has me Lu Fengxian, he commands the infantry, I command the cavalry, and I can take the world!"

Although Lu Bu was unimpressed by Lao Qin's orders, he still had to obey.

In order to balance Lu Bu, Lao Qin gave Lu Bu less than 10,000 cavalry. Old Qin has a group of loyal subordinates, Meng Tian, Meng Wu, Li Xin, and Yang Dayan, who hold military power, and even if Lu Bu wants to rebel, he must weigh how many troops he has.

Even if Lu Bu could kill hundreds of people and thousands of people, he couldn't be besieged by an army of more than 100,000 people.

Although Xu Huang was captured, he glared angrily and was full of hatred for Lu Bu. He could accept defeat, but he couldn't accept Lu Bu's humiliation.

Li Xin led 80,000 Guanzhong troops to attack the Baibo army, the battle continued, the battle lasted for five days, the Baibo army was killed tens of thousands, the river was blocked, and the corpses were floating in the river valley for ten miles.

Yang Feng and Han Xian were defeated and isolated, and finally chose to surrender.

Hedong County, which was subordinate to the seven counties, was seized by the old Qin. The old Qin ordered Li Xin to lead the Guanzhong army to attack Hanoi County and Henan Yin, and was about to control the entire Sili and become a veritable Sili lieutenant.

"Say that the Don was defeated? Chu Zimou is really a strong enemy, if I want to chase the Central Plains, Chu Zimou has to get rid of it. ”

When Lao Qin learned that Yuzhou Mu said that Tang was defeated in the Battle of Xiaopei, he couldn't help but sigh at the strength of Chu Zimou's power in Xuzhou.

He was about to own the seven counties of Sili, but compared to Chu Tian, who already had more than ten counties, he was still one step behind.

"Xiang said that Tang suggested that he take Yingchuan, Nanyang, and Chenliu as the capital to confront Chu Zimou, Yingchuan and Nanyang are both large counties, plus Runan, Chen Guo, Liang Guo, and Chen Liu, he has six counties, and he may not be able to stop Chu Zimou."

Lao Qin sent people to lobby Yuzhou to talk about Tang. He wasn't there to talk about Don, but for himself.

"As long as Tang and Chu Zimou are inseparable in the Central Plains, I will have enough time to take Liangzhou. Chu Zimou installed a Xu Fengnian for me, which made me uncomfortable, and I had no choice but to support Tang. ”

After receiving good news from Li Xin and Meng Tian, he ordered Meng Wu, Yang Dayan, Zhou Bo, Guo Yan and other generals to train soldiers and horses in Guanzhong and prepare to capture Liangzhou.

Longxi County, this place was divided by the lords of Longxi very early, and they are the magnates of this place. As for the original family in Longxi, those who were unwilling to surrender were all killed by strangers.

As a result, Longxi County was isolated from the world, and it was difficult for the scouts of other princes to penetrate.

"The spies from the right Fufeng came to report that Lao Qin had recruited another 100,000 recruits, which made people practice day and night, and it was obvious that they were coming to our Liangzhou. What should we do? ”

"Let the old Qin attack, and our Longxi will not move. If Lao Qin thought that our generals only had Wang Tiegun, it would be a big mistake. In the past two years, we have been seeking to exchange markets with Chu Zi, but we have gained a lot of benefits. ”

"Ma Chao is already fourteen years old this year, right? Can he go to war? ”

"Wait. If Lao Qin wants to take away the status of our Longxi nobles, is it so easy? We, the Earth Emperors, will have to do it for at least a few decades. ”

"That's what you said, don't come to the Guanzhong army to crusade, you will run away as soon as you are the first to scatter."

"Whoever runs is the grandson!"

The lords of Longxi County are full of confidence in the territory they have been operating for several years, and if Lao Qin wants to capture Liangzhou, he must pass the pass of the Longxi magnates.

"Chu Zimou wants to use sea salt, silk, iron, gold and silver to buy 10,000 fine war horses from us!"

The lords of Longxi received a big business from Xuzhou.

Xu Fengnian said: "It must be Chu Zimou who is a loser again." ”
