The official position and materials are in hand, and the materials far exceed Li Tang's expectations, what reason does Li Tang have not to send troops!

Speaking of which, these materials that Xu Xuan gave to Li Tang also have their own little Jiujiu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

First of all, why give 300,000 armor? In fact, the purpose was to let Li Tang pour his cavalry out of the nest, so that Xu Xuan could relax about the starting point city.

Xu Xuan has already reported on the reality of the starting point city, in fact, there are already eyeliner reports, and there were originally a maximum of 5-100,000 soldiers in the starting point city. There is more than enough self-preservation, and there is not enough offense.

In the First World War, the millions of Yellow Turbans were pacified, and the elites of these Yellow Turban soldiers had been released by Li Tang (Xu Xuan mistakenly thought that the players released by Li Tang were the Yellow Turban elites), and the generals were all redeemed by the Yellow Turban Army, leaving only some old, weak, sick and disabled, and placed them in other places.

The elite who are really recruited, less than 100,000, cannot threaten Xiangyang.

The person who is worried is just Li Tang's 300,000 cavalry!

If you break the 300,000 cavalry, you can rest assured and pacify the Yellow Turban thieves in all directions. Moreover, if Li Tang is willing to accept his leadership, then the 300,000 iron horses are the sharp steel knives in his hands, and the steel knives in his hands are naturally as fast as possible!

Therefore, Li Tang thought that he had picked up a big bargain, but he didn't know that all his arrangements were in other people's calculations. Those equipment are just whetstones for sharpening steel knives!

Therefore, when Li Tang led the army and rushed to Zhangling, this Xu Xuan stood at the head of Xiangyang City, whisked his beard and laughed:

"This leaf diao silk is still too young! However, with only 300,000 sets of equipment, I can take the 300,000 tiger and wolf army for my use and solve the big trouble in my heart, this business is not a loss! ”

On the side, Song Zhong also nodded and said that he didn't mention it.

As for the supply of grain and grass, Xu Xuan estimated it according to the amount of money he needed to march and fight, and it was only a little less.

Moreover, when the army marches and fights, it travels long distances, and the grain route must be guaranteed, otherwise there will be a shortage of food in the army, and the army's spirit will be scattered. Moreover, the march with grain and grass is not fast.

From Xiangyang to Zhangling, there are 8,000 miles to say the least, and if you don't consider grain and grass, you can easily reach it in 10 days.

However, with military supplies behind, the vanguard cannot advance too much, otherwise, once the grain and grass are attacked, it will be too late to rescue.

In this way, the overall marching speed is much slower, and as a result, the cost of food and grass on the way increases.

Therefore, Xu Xuan calculated the grain and grass and controlled the supply of grain and grass, so he could jam the neck of this army. If this army does not listen to itself, then stop distributing food and grass, even if this army comes back to attack itself, you only have to hold on until the opponent's food and grass are exhausted, and the opponent's army will fall apart!

However, if Li Tang didn't go forward with the army and stayed in the starting point city, it would be this army, and it could only march honestly like this. However, Li Tang's army marched with the army, so the supply of grain and grass was not a problem at all.

All the materials, Li Tang directly received the Qiankun bracelet. Anyway, the speed of collecting dead things is so fast, there is no need to say that it is not at all.

Without the burden of food and grass, the speed of the march will naturally be different.

And the soldiers on the march, Li Tang also collected while marching, and then one person with two horses, or one person with three horses, day and night, went straight to Zhangling County.

All the people you saw on the way gathered in one place and sent troops to guard them. As for the small group of yellow turban thieves encountered, they annihilated. As for the horses and horses, Li Tang didn't want to collect them, but the horses were too slow to collect.

However, on the 5th and 6th, Li Tang had already arrived at the boundary of Zhangling. At this time, Li Tang began to slow down the march and released the soldiers one after another.

Then he sent out to explore the horses and inquire about the news of the Yellow Turban Army.

It was getting late that day, Li Tang ordered to set up camp, and then took out food from the Qiankun bracelet for the soldiers to eat.

Then, considering the possibility of dividing the troops, he distributed the baggage, pots and pans one by one, in case his army was scattered, there would be no heavy grain and grass, and no sustained combat effectiveness.

At this time, Tanma reported that Uncle Sun, the younger brother of Sun Zhong, the general under Zhang Mancheng, received more than 40 elite yellow turbans and scattered them in various towns and villages to plunder. Sun Zhong personally commanded an army of 200,000 people, surrounded the county seat of Zhangling, and did not attack the city.

The garrison in Zhangling County is only 300,000, and the county commander Liu Neng is a gentleman, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but he just expects Sun Zhong not to attack the city, and he doesn't dare to go out of the city to rescue, let alone go out of the city to fight with Sun Zhong!

It seems that this Sun Zhong is unwilling to attack the city, the loss of the siege is too great, and he is only willing to plunder the township, and then recruit troops and horses, accumulate strength, and take Zhangling County in one go.

So, for a while, both sides coexisted peacefully.

In this way, it will be bitter for the players in Zhangling City! There are also a lot of players in Zhangling City, basically players from all over the township. They thought that there was not much room for development in the townships, so at least half of them went to Zhangling County.

There are at least 400,000 players in Zhangling County, of which about 120,000 have joined the Yellow Turban forces and naturally went outside the city, and 150,000 are players with non-combat professions such as old people and children, and the remaining 130,000 are combat professions.

Whether it is a siege or a defense, players who participate in the battle are rewarded with experience or points.

Now, the two sides are deadlocked here, and there are far fewer points and tests.

Therefore, for most players of the combat profession, what they want most is to fight, and only by fighting can they get the benefits they want, otherwise, in the game, it is to defend the city every day, which is too boring!

Therefore, the players in the city went to the county government every day to shout for war, but they were all driven away by the officials.

And the players outside the city, seeing that it is not a problem to stay in the barracks every day, volunteered and asked to plunder the villages and towns in various places.

After all, if you follow the team to the countryside to rob, you can still encounter some battles. There are many towns with armies, and some towns are relatively large, with a population of 20-300,000, and they can pull out tens of thousands of people if they are well organized to resist.

In addition, many of the towns are composed of one family after another, and they support each other in the forts around the town, which is also extremely difficult to break.

However, the terrible thing about the Yellow Turban Army is that there are many people, and several Yellow Turban Army are entangled together, unless there are some market towns with dangerous terrain, there are still few that cannot be attacked.

Today, the situation in the entire Zhangling County is like this. The situation in Zhangling County is not so urgent, and Xu Xuan urgently asked him to send troops to support Zhangling County. I guess it's more meaningful to go by yourself!

Fortunately, Li Tang got the benefits, and he didn't care at all.

Now there are two options:

One was to take the lead in attacking Sun Zhong, and then enter the city, slowly encircling and suppressing the Yellow Turban Army everywhere.

The second is to eat the scattered Yellow Turban Army in various places first, and then directly take Sun Zhong. How to choose, Li Tang has no idea, so he can only ask professionals.

Fortunately, Li Tang has three generals by his side, all of whom are all-round talents in civil and military affairs and full of wisdom. They are Shi Tianze, Zhang Hongfan, and Guo Kan.

When they saw Li Tang asking for their opinions, they all asked about the situation in detail, and then Shi Tianze said:

"My lord, I don't think there's anything bad about this. Attack Sun Zhong directly, anyway, he only has 200,000 soldiers, and our 300,000 cavalry can be eaten in one bite. Then he entered the city and slowly went out of the city to encircle and suppress the yellow turban thieves scattered all over the place. ”

"What General Shi said is very true! This can only do three harms! ”

Zhang Hongfan added that it seems that he also supports Shi Tianze.

"What are the three benefits of General Zhang?"

"First, Sun Zhong was camped outside Zhangling City, stationary, and all defenses were facing Zhangling County, and there was no war on weekdays, so he must be negligent in vigilance. As long as our army is killed in the back, Sun Zhongjun will inevitably panic and be defeated.

Second, after capturing Sun Zhong, our army can enter the city to rest, and with the protection of the city, it will first be invincible and avoid the risk of being stolen.

Third, enter the city strongly, deter the defenders in the city, and get the county order seal as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”

This Hongfan is reasonable, especially the third point, which is really like this. Originally, Liu Neng, the county magistrate of Zhangling County, was also a side branch of the Han family, and he relied on his father's shadow to get the position of this county magistrate, and in the fish and meat township, it was so unhappy.

But some time ago, when the Yellow Turban Army besieged the city, he wrote letters again and again to ask Nanyang County and Jingzhou for help, and even asked someone to come and replace him as the county commander.

After all, sitting in this county commander position, you must resist the Yellow Turban Army. If you run away, you'll be killed. He didn't want to stay in this position for a moment!

However, when he saw Li Tang, easily defeated Sun Zhong, and went into the city to replace him, he was still a little reluctant. If not, there are still 400,000 yellow turban thieves outside, and he may not be willing to step down!

"General Zhang is right, so what is the harm?" Li Tang asked.

"Actually! This harm is not necessarily a harm! Attack Sun Zhong first, the only disadvantage is that after Sun Zhong is destroyed, the rest of the Yellow Turban Army will flee in all directions, and even occupy the mountain as the king, scourge the place, and there are some sequelae! It's for a please! ”

"Then why is it not necessarily a harm?"

"Haha! Your lord, you are too loyal! If the Yellow Turbans come to avenge Sun Zhong, we can just annihilate them. If they scatter and escape, then we will slowly encircle and suppress, and then we can openly send troops everywhere and train troops, ask for less taxes, and even ask Jingzhou to support grain and grass and military salaries, which is not too bad! ”

Zhang Hongfan was loyal, and Li Tang's old face turned red, this loyalty is synonymous with incompetence in later generations!

"Raising thieves is self-respecting! General Zhang said it well! In fact, this Xu Xuan was in a hurry to send the general to relieve the siege, in fact, he was also afraid of you, the general! If we stay in this Zhangling all the time, we can also be regarded as a knife in the hands of Lord Xu Xuan, a knife that can be used with confidence.

When the time comes, Xu Xuan will not only not be calculating us, but will also reuse it. In fact, when Xu Xuan is using us, why can't we use his power to develop our own power? ”
