Zhang Bao's offensive unfolded quickly, and it was a full-scale attack, and the fierce offensive made the defenders and people from all over Taishan County, who originally thought that the Yellow Turban Thief was just like this, really saw the demeanor of the Yellow Turban Army, the game The Heroic Legend of the Three Kingdoms.

Zhang Baoke is not only the Yellow Turban Army, but also a large number of players in the Yellow Turban camp, the Yellow Turban Army is responsible for attacking the fortifications, and the Yellow Turban Camp players are responsible for expanding the results and containing the attack.

At the beginning, the army and militia defending the city still had some confidence, but when the real bloody battle began, the inexplicable confidence of these troops and militia who had not experienced serious battles suddenly collapsed, and the original contempt for the Yellow Turban thieves turned into fear, and their morale quickly changed from high to low.

The Yellow Turban Army's paper talisman skills that seized the opportunity were all in place, and they launched a fierce attack, and the city was destroyed.

Lailong, Pingyang and Mou counties broke the city in one day, and Mengyin and Huaxian counties persevered for one more day, and they were broken in two days.

As soon as the city was broken, the Yellow Turban Army immediately seized the whole city, imprisoned the rich and powerful separately, and then drove the ordinary people to the mountains, and the Yellow Turban followers immediately began to take over the cities outside these mountains and actively build defensive facilities.

A large number of player troops were dispatched to the surrounding area to raid and loot, while spreading panic about the Yellow Turban invasion to all sides.

Zhang Bao retained the three counties of Mu County, Pingyang and Mengyin, and gave Lailong and Hua County, as well as some small cities to Yiren, and more Yiren tried to continue to seize the opportunity when Yuan Shao did not react, and quickly advanced towards the west of Taishan County, and had the posture of swallowing the entire Taishan County in one bite.

Gao Ran received a request for help from Taishan County, and immediately reorganized the army and made preparations, but on the third day, Yuan Shao's retreat order was issued, Gao Ran retreated to the north with the people, and tried to attack Huaxian on the way, but the rear team was harassed by the alien troops, and lost a lot of people, Gao Ran had to put down his unrealistic plans, obediently retreated north, and retreated to Fei County.

After leaving half of the troops to garrison Fei County, Gao Ran personally led the army north, and met Guan Hai again in Mengyin, and suffered a small defeat, Gao Ran had to give up the plan to attack Mengyin, and instead entered Nanwuyang to hold on.

On the one hand, Gao Ran ordered each city to hold on to wait for reinforcements, and at the same time shrank the surrounding people into the city, and released the cavalry out of the city, avoiding the main force of the Yellow Turban Army, and specifically pinching each other with the Inhuman troops, which also effectively curbed the crazy infiltration of the Inhuman troops, and the Yellow Turban Army was already slightly tired and weak in attack after capturing three cities.

The fatigue of the Yellow Turban Army does not come from the fatigue of the soldiers, but the lack of logistical supplies, due to the small strategic reserves, after a period of large-scale war, the logistics of the Yellow Turban Army suddenly became tight, and now the Yellow Turban Army is no longer the former peasant rebel army, but a regularized army, so there is no difference from the Han Army, the only difference may be more fearless of death.

However, the troops of the Yellow Turban Army were trained to do so, so they could no longer fight with their lives as easily as before, so the requirements and dependence on equipment and supplies were naturally much higher, and when they advanced the war to Taishan County, they found that their logistical consumption was far greater than expected, and it was not impossible to continue the attack, but it would weaken the future defense capability.

After weighing left and right, Zhang Bao just released Guan Hai's cavalry and allowed it to collect grain on the spot, that is, to rob! It's a pity that Gao Ran and Yan Liang are not stupid, Taishan County's Taishou Yingshao is also a smart person, he has already started to clear the wilderness in time, and when Guan Hai bypassed Nanwuyang and continued to move westward, he soon found that there were no people's villages everywhere, and he had to dig rat holes to find some food, and he had no place to hunt, because there was farmland around!

He had the intention to continue to the west, but there was a deserted scene all the way, Guan Hai immediately dispelled his luck, withdrew his troops, completely abandoned the offensive plan, and focused on active defense.

Although Zhang Bao's attack was very fast, and the response of the Yiren was quite positive, Ying Shao's ability was indeed not fake, coupled with the weak attack of Huang Yu and Gao Lan's timely reinforcement, the Yellow Turban Army and Yuan Shaojun finally formed a confrontation on the line from Xiangxian and Fenggao to Nanwuyang.

The Yellow Turban Army thus turned into a stalemate, and began to build fortresses and cities on this line, and the strength of the aliens was exerted, and in a few days, a front composed of fortresses and cities was established in Taishan County, which made Gao Ran breathtaking.

With these fortresses and cities, the Inhuman troops and Guan Hai's cavalry can be supplied at any time, so they become extraordinarily active again, and war is like this, when one side is extraordinarily active, the other side naturally becomes quite passive, and must work hard to defend to counteract this activity of the other party.

Gao Ran's embarrassment lies in the fact that his troops are insufficient, and the cavalry is even more insufficient, so there is no way to defend such a large area and block such a long line of attack, so Gao Ran can only adopt the strategy of sticking to key cities and gradually regaining the initiative around the city.

This point was done well near Nanwuyang and Feixian, because there was the support of Gao Lan's cavalry, but on the northern front, due to the insufficient number of cavalry, the cavalry of Guan Hai frequently harassed the city, and the limited number of cavalry in the city did not dare to go out of the city, and the initiative was almost completely lost, and these cities could not be held in the long run.

Therefore, it is obviously unrealistic to completely reverse the current unfavorable situation in Taishan County just by relying on Gao Lan's troops, so Gao Ran frequently sent the current situation and letters requesting reinforcements to Yan Liang.

At this time, Yan Liang was also turning the offensive into a stalemate, stationing his troops in Rencheng and Zou County, and began to clear out the Inhuman troops that had infiltrated behind him, and at the same time began to issue tasks to snatch Inhuman resources with Frustration. On the other hand, Yan Liang and Zhangjaw's cavalry met twice, and under the losses of each side, neither side had any interest in fighting strongly, and Fu Zhu did not go south.

After Yan Liang discovered this, he ordered Yuan Yi's troops to retreat to Kangfu and Fang and the two cities, and confronted Liu Dai, who was gathering troops to advance eastward.

Yan Liang's arrangement quickly stabilized his battle situation, especially the high task reward, which slowly changed the original most unbalanced Inhuman forces, and the enemy infiltration troops in Lujun and Rencheng and the eastern part of Shanyang County quickly disappeared, and Yan Liang slowly freed his hands.

As soon as Yan Liang's troops were freed up, the cavalry entered Taishan County eastward, and the players of the Yellow Turban Army and the Golden Camp, which were still very active, were immediately attacked.

On August 19, Guan Hai and Yan Liang's cavalry fought, both sides had losses, Guan Hai was distressed by his troops, and Guan Hai had no reason to continue the strong battle, so he took the initiative to retreat.

Yan Liang couldn't help but be taken aback, only then did he know that the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army was also not to be underestimated, and he didn't expect that Huang Yu also had a strong general who could fight against him.

After Yan Liang's troops arrived, the offensive and defensive situation of Taishan County was reversed, and under the escort of Yan Liang's cavalry, the infantry began to go out of the city one by one to uproot the fortresses and fortresses established by the Yellow Turban camp players.

What's more, Guan Hai will not be completely inactive, Guan Hai can't beat Yan Liang, but Gao Ran is not Guan Hai's opponent, after Gao Ran's troops suffered two losses, they saw that the price was too great, so they had to stop the operation.

Guan Hai turned around and went north to harass Yan Liang, the battle between the two sides was quite entangled, almost every day they were attacking the city, almost every day the Yellow Turban Army would lose some city fortresses, but in the same way, Yan Liang's troops were decreasing every day, and the logistics supply was attacked by Guan Hai and the aliens from time to time.

And the west is not very peaceful, frustrated, open jaw Jian Yan Liang's cavalry went east, immediately began to be active, frequently infiltrated to the south of Lu County, and even to the vicinity of South Pingyang, which made the people and defenders of Lu County unable to sleep in peace, Yan Liang had no choice but to end the counteroffensive of Taishan County, with the existing defense line as the bottom line, leaving part of the cavalry in Taishan County under the command of Gao Ran, and Yan Liang himself led the rest of the cavalry back to Lu County to fight the fire!

"Second General, according to the latest news, Yan Liang has returned to Lu County, and the infantry on the front line has withdrawn to Xiangxian and Fenggao."

When Zhang Bao heard this, his face was suddenly overjoyed, and at the same time, he was greatly relieved, Yan Liang's retreat represented the end of this counteroffensive stage, and when Yan Liang was able to draw troops again, the city fortress on the front would be more solid, and Yan Liang would need to pay a greater price to take it at that time.

Zhang Bao quickly walked to the edge of the map, carefully looked at the position of the battle line marked on the map now, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, our perimeter defense line is still intact, how is the status of the Inhumans?"

Zang Ba smiled and said: "The combat power of the Inhumans from Donglai is very good, and the financial resources are also very strong, almost all the fronts in the north are their world, and they are also willing to invest in these fronts, and the speed of construction is very fast." It's just"

"Are you worried that they will one day come back?"

"And Jing Jun is wise1

"Hehe, now they are Yuan Shao in front, and we are behind, caught in the middle can only struggle to survive, how difficult it is to develop, besides, don't we develop? In that case, we can only blame ourselves for being counterattacked1

Zang Ba said solemnly: "What the second general said is very true, and the last general has been taught1

"Now what we need to do is to consolidate the existing territory as soon as possible, and send another messenger to send a letter to Ying Shao, asking them to redeem the captured clans."

"No1

Zang Ba responded, and was about to turn around and go out, Zhang Bao suddenly said: "Wait, Xuan Gao, do you think we should continue to maintain the offensive, after all, the war in Jizhou is not over yet, if we put pressure on Jinan County"

"Second general, not to mention our logistics, even if we can draw out troops to put pressure on Jinan County, Jinan County is no better than Taishan County, the troops there are all experienced veterans, and if you want to attack the city, you will have to pay a huge price, and besides, after the capture, we will be limited to the dilemma of a long battle line, what good do you want?"

"Then don't attack?"

"No, we can attack Taishan County! Isn't Guan Hai's troops still usable1?

Zhang Bao's eyes rolled, and he stroked his beard and smiled: "That's true, we still attack Taishan County 1."
