Chapter 577: Merging the state and breaking it

The battle information of Jinyang City had already reached Li Yang's hands in less than half a month.

Seeing that Huang Zhong easily blocked Zhang Hua's attack, Li Yang said in his heart Sure enough, the strength of the archers of the Sun Chasing Legion is the strongest among all the legions, and defending the city is naturally the most suitable.

However, Li Yang was not too excited, because he knew that the next step would be an extremely difficult time for the Sun Chasing Legion.

Even if Zhang Hua has no real memory, he is now a 'veteran' who has been on the battlefield for a long time, no matter how stupid he is, he will definitely prepare for the basic siege equipment.

With siege equipment and the superiority in numbers, Huang Zhong's defensive battle may be extremely difficult.

But the troops in his hands now are no longer enough to transfer and merge states to help.

In order to defend against the raid in Jizhou, he even transferred the Zhenguan army that defended the second pass of Tianyun and Tianwei to guard Pingyuan County.

Thinking of this, Li Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

With the attack of the Tiger Legion, now that most of the territory of Jizhou has been taken into its own hands, it is a little meaningless for the Zhenguan Army to defend Pingyuan County.

It is better to let the Zhenguan army replace the Tiger Legion and continue to attack other places in Jizhou that have not yet been recovered.

Moreover, for these places that have just been recovered, it is necessary to leave a part of the troops to guard them.

If the strength of the Tiger Legion is dismantled, not to mention that Li Yang is reluctant, even Tai Shici will not agree.

So, Li Yang hurriedly called Zhang Liang to negotiate with him.

Zhang Liang agreed with Li Yang's idea and put forward some of his own opinions.

In less than half an hour, an order was issued from the big tent of the Chinese army and went straight to Pingyuan County and Changshan County.

Wu Fan and Guan Hai of Pingyuan County were all overjoyed after receiving Li Yang's order.

Both of them are famous generals, and they both want to show their skills, but whether it is guarding the sky and clouds or guarding the plain county, there is almost no fighting.

Now that they can finally take the initiative to attack, how can they not make the two happy.

The two did not hesitate, and almost on the day they received the order, they had already arranged it and sent troops to Jizhou.

More than 300,000 Zhenguan troops, the number is still quite large, but all the way to the march, all the way to the defense of the army, it is also gradually reduced, and by the time it meets the Tiger Legion, it has gone to nearly 100,000.

Fortunately, Hu Bao, Huang Xu and others obeyed Li Yang's instructions and brought the original county soldiers from Qingzhou to join them, which can be regarded as replenishing some troops.

Then the two armies separated, the Tiger Legion went straight to Bingzhou, and the Zhenguan Army continued the 'great cause' of the Tiger Legion.

However, before the Zhenguan army came, Jizhou was almost out of his hands.

This is not only because Xuanyuan Honglie transferred a large number of county soldiers, but also has a lot to do with Xuanyuan Honglie and their siege in Fanyang City.

The original lord of his own family is already difficult to protect himself, what is the use of holding on to it, there are many county guards and county orders with this idea, so Tai Shici's capture of various places is also quite smooth.

After taking over the task of the Tiger Legion, the Zhenguan Army divided tens of thousands of soldiers and sent them to other counties and cities in Jizhou that had surrendered or been captured.

Then he went to the counties that Julu had not yet attached.

The task given to them by Li Yang is not only to take Jizhou, but also to send them to Youzhou.

Li Yang felt that his appetite was already so good, and if he didn't swallow it in one bite, he would be a little sorry for the casualties of his soldiers.

Most of Youzhou has now been taken by Xuanyuan Honglie, and the rest is in the hands of Gongsun Du.

Gongsun Du has no incompetent people in his hands, and his troops are even less, according to the intelligence of Moyi Lou, I am afraid that there are only more than 100,000 people, so Li Yang did not think that Gongsun Du would be a difficult obstacle.

Of course, Li Yang would not be careless, so the order given to Wu Fan and others was to attack Youzhou, take the territory of Youzhou with Xuanyuan Honglie, and not take the initiative to provoke Gongsun Du.

I believe that if I pulled out my hand, a little Gongsun Du still had his hands on it.

Speaking of the Tiger Legion, after separating from the Zhenguan Army, they went to Wei County, crossed the Huguan Pass and went to Bingzhou, and then went to Taiyuan County non-stop.

It may be that the main energy is focused on attacking Jinyang City, or it may be that they are not good at intelligence in the first place, and they were not discovered by Zhang Hua until Tai Shici led people to the territory of Jinyang City.

But by this time, it was too late.

The commander of the Tiger Legion advanced suddenly, Zhang Hua temporarily gathered, and the army sent by the ancestor was not the enemy of the turn at all, and was directly scattered by the Tiger Legion.

After breaking through the block, the Tiger Legion copied the rear of Zhang Hua's army, and at the same time, Huang Zhong also sent troops out of the city to attack Zhang Hua's army together.

Under the attack of the two major armies of the Tiger and the Chase Day, Zhang Hua's army suffered less than 20% casualties before it was completely dispersed, and the soldiers of Zhang Hua's army scattered and fled.

In fact, the main reason for this is that most of the soldiers in Zhang Hua's hands are temporary people, although there are many people in this group, but their own quality and team cooperation are quite poor.

In this world, excluding the people, if you count the regular soldiers alone, the normal soldier casualties will be about 4 percent, and if the morale is higher, it can generally be controlled at about 60 percent.

But there are many limiting factors, one of which is that a large number of civilians are needed to transport grain and grass materials in a unit, and the quality of these civilians is far lower than that of real soldiers, just like the elite of the Tiger Legion, and the legion with additional transport troops is also 20% of the civilians, not to mention other armies.

Second, the morale of the army will drop greatly with the increase of casualties, and as the morale disappears, the army's combat effectiveness and resistance will gradually weaken.

Therefore, after combining various conditions, an army will be defeated by about 30% of casualties, which can be regarded as an army in the middle and upper ranks.

If it is divided according to the original game world, it is already considered to be above the sixth-order soldiers.

Most of Zhang Hua's hands are ordinary people, and if they are led by ordinary generals, I am afraid that if the casualties are less than 10%, there will be a large-scale rout.

It can also be seen that Zhang Hua does have a way to control the will of the people.

But it doesn't matter anymore, because Zhang Hua is dead.

As the sovereign, Zhang Hua is naturally Tai Shici's main target, and Li Yang left an order not to leave a living mouth, so Tai Shici will not be soft.

Before the attack, Tai Shi Ci set his eyes on Zhang Hua's main force, and after the attack, Tai Shi Ci took the lead and rushed straight to Zhang Hua.

Although Zhang Hua has a lot of famous generals in his hands, there are few who can really fight.

Therefore, Tai Shici can be described as a fierce tiger, and he unstoppably rushed to kill Zhang Hua all the way, which was also the main reason for the rout of the enemy.

Zhang Hua died, which also meant that the battle between the states and the state had entered the endgame.

After the loss of Zhang Hua, the monarch, the state army entered a slump, and the resistance was even weaker than today's Jizhou.

Although Zhang Yan rose up later and led the remnants of the Yellow Turban to resist, he finally threw a stone into the river and splashed a few splashes.

After destroying Zhang Hua and Zhang Yan, the Bingzhou area north of Taiyuan was also recovered by the Chronicle Army.

Because Bingzhou is on the border, the north is the residence of the Hu people, and the southwest is facing near Liangzhou, so the army must be left to defend it, so the daily army was left in Bingzhou by Li Yang, and Huang Zhong was naturally appointed by Li Yang as the assassin of Bingzhou.

That's right, without the above table, without the recognition of the Han Emperor, Li Yang's direct order, Li Yang, who was originally afraid of the princes' joint attack, now has enough strength to deal with all the mutations.

As for the Tiger Legion, after breaking through and killing Zhang Hua, they returned the same way, retreated to Wei County, and joined Li Yang to besiege Fanyang.
