Chapter 567, Zang Ba was defeated and fled

In Qu County, as soon as Zhao Yu led his troops into the county, he had already ordered the troops of the surrounding townships to concentrate on the county seat and concentrate on the defense of the county seat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 This was not wrong, but the consequence was that when most of the army left, He Qi swept away the southern part of Quxian without much effort, and groups of people were forcibly taken onto ships and sent to Jiangdong.

Zhao Yu knew that if it went on like this, even if he could repel Yuan Shu and Liu Feng in the future, Qu County would be a dead city. But if he didn't, he had no other way, because the conditions in Qu County were too poor.

No one thought that Liu Feng would come to the sea before, so most of the troops in Qu County were transferred to Tancheng. This time, Tao Qian only gave Zhao Yu a million horses, and his main focus was on Yuan Shu in the west. For Qu County, Tao Qian has only one requirement, that is, to defend the county seat.

That's why Zhao Yu desperately gathered a large army, and even forcibly recruited the army of the lord player, and wantonly recruited Inhumans to participate in the war, so even if he knew that this was to give up the people of Qu County and the future of Qu County, Zhao Yu had to do it, because the county town could not accommodate so many people.

But even after making so many preparations, the strength of Qu County has reached more than three million, which is more than all the troops invested by Liu Feng, but Zhao Yu himself knows the combat effectiveness of this army, and does not give any hope of holding the city, and only prays that Tancheng in the west can repel Yuan Shu's attack.

Zhang Zhao came to Qu County with Zhao Yu, and of course, his family was in Tancheng. As a political talent, Zhang Zhao was sent here by Tao Qian for the purpose of maintaining stability in Tancheng during the war. Because of the big war, there is no need to govern at all.

When He Qi attacked outside the city of Qu County, there were less than a million people who camped outside the southern city of Qu County, and set up a large camp in a grand manner, blocking the road outside the city of Qu County.

Such blatant contempt certainly made the defenders of the city angry, and someone immediately asked for battle, and while the enemy was still unstable, the whole army attacked and defeated this vanguard force. Especially Lu Dai, the Zhonglang general under Zhao Yu, insisted on asking for his life to fight.

Zhao Yu thought about it for a long time, consulted some people's opinions, and finally agreed to Lu Dai's request to let him lead the army and the army of the Inhuman Lord to battle.

Zhao Yu was driven back by Yuan Shu's army all the way back when Yuan Shu went east to Xuzhou last time, and Lu Dai has been following Zhao Yu, although he lost Guangling at the beginning, he still brought back millions of battle-hardened troops. But as soon as he arrived in Tancheng, he was directly cut by Tao Qian, and even Zhao Yu was imprisoned for this, and was later released.

In Lu Dai's heart, he always wanted to take revenge, so Yuan Shu went east again, and he asked to go to the front line as soon as possible, but was always rejected by Tao Qian. It wasn't until this time that Tao Qian asked Zhao Yu to lead the army to support Qu County, and only returned half of the Guangling army between them, and added some new soldiers, so that Zhao Yu could bring them to Qu County.

Lu Dai was very confident in the combat effectiveness of his subordinates, and even thought that if Yuan Shu hadn't invested too many troops at the beginning, he would not have retreated from Guangling at all.

Zhao Yu gave Lu Dai nearly twice as many people as He Qi, nearly half of them were veterans, and even some of them were soldiers who had personally trained Lu Dai to fight side by side in Guangling. According to what he thought, He Qi had just arrived, and the camp had not yet been perfected, so he was naturally not an opponent on his side.

But the war is never just about the number of people, although He Qi's soldiers and horses are few, but they are absolutely strong, although Lu Dai has a lot more people, and there are many Inhuman lord armies as cannon fodder, but it is difficult to defeat He Qi for a while.

When the battle was stalemate, the army led by Bai Jian suddenly appeared and attacked Lu Dai, and when he was caught off guard, Lu Dai suffered heavy losses.

At a critical time, you can see a person's character, if Zhao Yu can make up his mind at this time, according to the suggestions of Zhang Zhao and others, the whole army will attack for a big melee, with superior troops, the victory or defeat is not yet known. But Zhao Yu didn't have this decision, and Tao Qian's order also made him take care of it, and hastily ordered the troops to be collected and returned to the city, which led to the collapse of Lu Dai's authority, and finally more than half of the army remained outside the city, and the army of the Inhuman Lord suffered countless losses.

Since then, Zhao Yu has never dared to go out of the city to fight.

Zhang Zhao naturally knew about He Qiqi, and soon after the war, he already knew that Zhang Hong had also arrived outside the city. As one of the people in power in the city of Qu, even though the two sides were at war, Zhang Zhao quickly contacted Zhang Hong. Therefore, Liu Feng hurried to catch up with the third batch of teams and came to Xuzhou.

After seeing Zhang Hong, Liu Feng also knew that he was coming early, and in the current situation, it was impossible to see Zhang Zhao, although there were only two city gates outside the city, but since the news of Yuan Shubing's siege of Tancheng came, Qu County has basically been forbidden to enter and exit except for scouts. The reason why Zhang Zhao was able to contact Zhang Hong was also through a scout, and he wasted a lot of energy.

If he couldn't see Zhang Zhao, Liu Feng could only wait, waiting for Bai Jian and them to attack Qu County, and detached a part of his troops and horses to go to the north of Qu County to sweep away, take away the people in sight, and send them to Jiangdong.

……

Zang Ba is very unhappy these days. Yes, anyone who had a seamless plan before was disrupted and on the verge of failure will not have a good face.

The reason why he chose Cao Cao was because he saw Cao Cao's potential, and Cao Cao's current strength was not too strong, so he needed to rely on him to continue to defend Langya State. That's why he agreed with Cao Cao that Cao Cao would attack Lu in the west, and he would delay Yuan Shu's attack here. After Cao Cao took the state of Lu, he came to meet Zang Ba, and the most important goal was to give up the East China Sea and hold Langya, plus an extra state of Lu. Even if Yuan Shu is not strong, it is not impossible to take the East China Sea by reaping the profits.

But all these plans were ruined by the rebellion of Chen Palace.

Cao Cao had to retreat westward in a hurry and mobilize a large army to deter his rear when the Lu State had not yet been taken, so the first defense had changed, so the Lu State could only take a defensive position to stabilize the few counties that had just been captured.

But even so, the big county of Chen Liu could never come back, and Sun Jian got Chen Liu without any effort, and mobilized a large army to garrison the counties to prevent Cao Cao from counterattacking. Only now did I discover that Sun Jian, who had been in obscurity for several years, was no worse than those princes who occupied a state.

Cao Cao was involved, and Zang Ba was tragic.

Yuan Shu became angry, but not everyone could withstand it, especially now, he had given up his support for Runan and Lu, and mobilized countless troops from Guangling, Pengcheng and even Jiujiang, bent on destroying Zang Ba and Tao Qian.

Tao Qian is okay, after all, he occupies the geographical advantage of Tancheng, and the number of troops in the city is sufficient, and there is no shortage of military generals, so Yuan Shu is firmly blocked out. But Zang Ba can't do it, he came to Tancheng to support, there is no geographical advantage, and he still has to block the road for Yuan Shu's retreat, which makes Yuan Shu's hatred for him even more than Tao Qian. After all, Tao Qian was a victim of this war.

Tancheng could not be broken for a while, so Yuan Shu threw most of his troops into Zang Ba, surrounded Zang Ba's three million army, and did not give him a chance to escape.

Zang Ba's Taishan Army is strong, but in the face of Yuan Shu's crowd tactics, it can only be helpless. It can be supported in the short term, but when the number of troops is getting smaller and smaller, and when Cao Cao's response is delayed, Zang Ba finally can't support it.

So, when Lu Bu had just arrived at Anyi and was about to catch him, Zang Ba chose to escape.
