Chapter 665: The Yellow Turban's counterattack

On February 11 of the second year of Guangxi, Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Yanbu of the Yellow Turban Army of Jizhou attacked from Lunu and Xiatao respectively, Zhang Yan attacked Tang County to the north, completely drove Liu Yu's troops out of Jizhou, and then waved his army south to attack Puyin Gaoyang, threatening Anguo and Wei County from the flank.

And Zhang Niujiao led the cavalry to suddenly march eastward, attacked Wu County, and formed a flanking attack on Anguo, in desperation, Gao Ran, who was stationed in Wei County, had to retreat to Anguo and Gao Gan to converge, and urgently asked Yuan Shao for help, and now Anguo's back road is about to be cut off, and it is no longer meaningful to stick to Anguo.

In desperation, Yuan Shao, who was far away in the Central Plains, had no choice but to urgently let Wen Chou return to Jizhou, and on the other hand, he ordered Gao Gan to abandon Anguo and attack Gaoyang with all his might, so as not to let the Yellow Turban Army enter Hejian County and entrench themselves.

On 13 February, the Yellow Turban Army regained Anguo and took full control of Changshan State, and Zhang Yan, who had retreated from Gaoyang with a single shot, immediately went south to Anping, captured Anping City, Shenze, and Hexian, and formed an actual occupation of the northern part of Anping County with Zhang Niujiao, who occupied Wu County.

On the same day, Zhang Baobu, who attacked from Julu, captured Nangong, forming a north-south attack on Xindu.

Han Fu surprisingly did not move, but only strengthened the defenses of Guangping County and Qinghe County to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from raiding his territory, obviously with the mentality of watching a good show, and did not rush into the game.

And after Yuan Shao understood Zhang Jiao's plan, he asked Gao Gan and Gao Lan to form an army of Hejian to stick to the line of Gaoyang, Zhongshui, and Lecheng. Prevent the Yellow Turban Army from attacking Hejian from the flank, and at the same time order Wen Chou to rush to Xindu to preside over the battle, shrink and gather the forces of Anping County, and defend Xindu to the death.

He also ordered Jiang Yiqu and Chun Yuqiong to be heavily guarded in the plain to guard against Han Fu's sneak attack.

An emergency deployment temporarily stabilized the crisis in Jizhou, but most of Anping County was lost. It was still a heavy blow to Yuan Shao, seeing that spring was about to begin, Anping County and Changshan Country were in and out. The impact on the strength of the Yellow Turban Army and Yuan Shao is huge.

In fact, at this time, Zhang Jiao's attack is already at the end of the crossbow, but the Yellow Turban Army still has a large number of player troops!

Most of the player troops of the imperial court camp are gathered in the Central Plains region at the moment to participate in the melee between the Kwantung camp and Dong Zhuo's camp, while the players of the Yellow Turban camp have been recuperating for a long time. Zhang Jiao's sudden attack this time suddenly detonated the emotions of the players in the Yellow Turban camp who had been holding back for a while.

Didn't wait for Zhang Bao to return to the north, the players had already spontaneously surrounded Tangyang and Fuliu, although the player's combat power was limited, but Wen Chou was stunned and did not dare to clear the player troops on a large scale, for fear that this was Zhang Yan's conspiracy, waiting for himself to go out of the city to help, so Tangyang and Fuliu became a lonely city.

How could Zhang Yan miss this good opportunity, and immediately planned a battle with Zhang Niujiao to storm Fuliu. As a result, after paying a considerable price, Fuliu was captured, and Tangyang, who had become an isolated city, subsequently surrendered.

Since the armistice last year, Huang Jiao's biggest victory was the Battle of Fuliu, in which more than 20,000 enemies were annihilated. Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Yan can also be regarded as part of the revenge of the fiasco of Xindu, and these two guys are riveted to take down Xindu and avenge the hundreds of thousands of brothers who died in Xindu!

On February 19, a confrontation formed under the castle of Shinto, but only. This time, the Yellow Turban Army was the main attack, while the officers and troops were defensive...... At the same time as Jizhou Zhangjiao moved, the Taishan Yellow Turban and the Runan Yellow Turban also instigated an offensive.

The Taishan Yellow Turban Army was divided into two attack directions, the north was Guanhai out of Linqu to attack Guangxian to the north, and the whole way was led by Zang Ba, out of Dongguan to attack Pyeongchang, and the Yellow Turban camp players in Zhuxian and Dongwu also cooperated to attack Pyeongchang.

And Zhang Mancheng in Runan is not soft, instigating the troops and the players of the Yellow Turban camp to counterattack Ruyin, Xincai and Ancheng, but Zhang Mancheng's actions are more of a gesture, and Zhu Jun's troops in Runan have not made a major move, in fact, the situation in Runan has always been one after another, and the two sides have advanced and retreated in a stalemate.

Now Zhang Mancheng's so-called taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, is more of an attitude, of course, after Zhang Mancheng got the grain channel of the Jingxiang clan, the situation has greatly improved, and the war potential has also risen, and now it is still possible to take advantage of the appropriate advantage, although Ruyin may not be able to take it, but the Ancheng line should be able to take it back, after all, the officers and troops here have suddenly advanced, and the original position is not very good, and it will be attacked by the north and south from Canyang and Runan City.

After Zhang Mancheng took back Ancheng, he basically had a complete defensive circle in the Tongbai Mountains, which was tantamount to an extra layer of protection for the Yellow Turban Army in the Tongbai Mountains, so Zhang Mancheng's approach was a bit of a fishing in troubled waters.

Relatively speaking, the Yellow Turban Army's offensive in Jizhou was the largest, with the largest number of troops mobilized and aliens, while Runan's movement was the smallest, which was basically the original scale of the battle, but because Yingchuan and Zhang Ji were making trouble, Zhu Jun had to provide some support to Kong Ling, and it seemed that the troops at hand were a little tight...... Ten miles west of Pyeongchang City, here is Zangba's camp, and the players gathered from Tobu City and Zhuxian County are camped ten miles south of Pyeongchang City, and the camps in the two places are far away from each other, and they are horns of each other.

Pyeongchang City is a city governed by players, and it belongs to the industry of the local Qingyang Society in Shandong, and in the face of the menacing Yellow Turban Army, the leader of the Qingyang Society is also a little dumbfounded, but this is also a matter of no way, thinking about the fate of those player guilds when Fang Zhiwen fell into Dongwu, Keqianao, and Pingzhu County, and there is nothing to complain about if he will have such an end today.

Gaomi's Light Cavalry Association and Chang'an's Lu Guoren Alliance, as well as Anqiu's Elite Association and other guilds have sent troops to help Pyeongchang assist in defense, and more than 200,000 troops have gathered in Pyeongchang, which is already a very good result. As for whether he can hold anyone's heart, it depends on Zang Ba's ability and the level of his own player troops.

As for asking Kong Rong for help, the people of the Qingyang Society still did it, but Kong Rong is a nominal Taishou in Beihai, and he only controls the three cities of Pingshou, Lingshou and Duxian, and people are not obliged to come to help you!

Look at Zang Ba outside the city, Zang Ba led an army of 60,000. Among them, there were 10,000 cavalry, as well as 3,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers led by Sun Guan, and these troops were all at the elite level or above. Many of them were troops who had participated in the Battle of Linqu, and their combat strength was still guaranteed. In addition, more than 150,000 player troops from Tobu and Zhuxian came to help in the battle, and 30,000 or 40,000 ranger players. Therefore, Zang Ba's strength is still very strong, and he himself is optimistic about this plan to move eastward.

"Qu Shuai, how is General Guan's progress there?"

Sun Guan poured a sip of the tea handed over by Zang Ba, wiped the corners of his mouth and asked, Sun Guan and Zang Ba have known each other for a long time, they met when they were thieves in Mount Tai, and later joined the Yellow Turban Army together, and the relationship was naturally not ordinary.

"Sit down, Guan Hai's letter said to try to attack, the combat strength of the defenders is average. However, the number is quite considerable, and the Inhuman forces are very active in cooperating with Cao Ren's forces, so Guan Hai mainly focuses on eliminating the Inhuman forces, which is in line with our initial expectations, hoping that he will capture more prisoners. ”

"Huh. This trick is a bad move, and Cao Ren has to take it1

"Well, if Guan Hai gains something, Sun Guan's advice will not be ignored."

"Thank you Qu Shuai, but I don't think Qu Shuai seems to be in a good mood, is it because there are too many defenders in Pyeongchang?"

Zang Ba looked up at Sun Guan, who was sitting opposite him. He frowned slightly and said:

"No, the defenders in Pyeongchang City seem to me to be nothing more than chickens and dogs, but Guan Hai repeatedly reminded me not to ignore the reinforcements from Pyeongshou, which means Yuwen Boyan1

"I really don't understand why General Guan is so afraid of Fang Zhiwen's troops in Youzhou, are these troops all demons? Yuwen Boyan is only 20,000 cavalry, we also have 10,000 cavalry, and tens of thousands of elites, so why be afraid of him. ”

Sun Guan patted the handle of the knife on his waist, and his fighting intent was quite high.

"Hehe, I remember that you have a younger brother who also serves in Fang Zhiwen's army, why do you have such a bad impression of Fang Zhiwen?"

Zang Ba asked very curiously, about this younger brother Sun Guan has never been mentioned much, but Sun Guan's younger brother Sun Li often talks about it in front of Guan Hai and Zang Ba, and he looks like he is very satisfied with the performance of this younger brother, but now it seems that Sun Guan does not seem to think so.

"It is precisely because of this that I can't look down on Shang Zhiwen, in fact, I don't want to talk about this matter, there is a way that the ugliness of the family is not publicized, but since Qu Shuai asked, I will talk about it. It's not that I arranged my brother, you must know that guy is a waste at all, since he was a child, he can't be a general, he can't be a soldier, his abilities are basically I used countless robbed skill books and props to punch the hard pile and I thought that just his kind of person was actually reused in Fang Zhiwen's army, although he was very happy to have achievements, but through his incident, we can imagine what level Fang Zhiwen's troop combat strength is1

Sun Guan looked disdainful, a little embarrassed, and of course, a little jealous.

Zang Ba was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Sun Guan's younger brother still had such a play, if Sun Guan didn't lie, then Fang Zhiwen's troop combat strength really had to be reconsidered, in fact, Sun Guan didn't need to lie about this matter, not to mention, this matter was still forced to ask by himself, and Sun Guan didn't plan to say it.

However, Zang Ba still has some doubts.

"Oh? However, Fang Zhiwen swept away Wuhuan and drove the Xianbei people to the north of the desert, which was something that even Huo Qubing couldn't do1

"Cut! That must be that these Hu people have been corrupted, and they were taken advantage of by Fang Zhiwen, I hope that Yuwen Boyan will come over quickly, so that the people of Youzhou can know what a strong army 1 is

Zang Ba looked at Sun Guan's confident appearance, and couldn't help but be infected, maybe it was really as Sun Guan said, the combat power of the Hu people was exaggerated, and the latter Hu people had lost their sharp minions after parasitizing on the border of the Han Dynasty for a hundred and ten years, which is also possible, so, q! ~!
