Chapter 268: Qingzhou Changes Again
However, they didn't think about it thoroughly, why did Lin Sen leave thirty high-level warships, in order to be afraid of Gao Ran and open his jaws, there were high-level warships docked on the banks of the Yellow River, catapults and ballistas continued to attack, and his soldiers and horses could cross the river smoothly.
As expected, the art of war has clouds to attack the enemy in Bandu, Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw saw that Lin Sen's army had begun to cross the river, and was about to come to the south bank ferry, thinking about the half-crossing and attacking, the leader just wanted to step forward, and saw countless boulders and spears thrown over the river crossing warship in an instant, and the soldiers in their own formation were killed in an instant, and no one dared to step forward in fright, and retreated quickly, withdrew from the attack distance, and temporarily dodged.
Lin Sen stood at the ferry and looked full of eyes, his heart was very happy, the trapped camp and the two infantry had successfully disembarked, set up the battle formation, the transport ship returned, and continued to transport the cavalry, there were 450,000 cavalry, there were not a few back and forth that could not be transported, Lin Sen led his soldiers and generals to cross the river to the south bank on the third trip.
About an hour and a half, the main army had crossed the river, set up a battle formation, and was ready to fight at any time, and the catapults also stopped their attack and docked at the ferry port on the south bank, and the transport ships continued to transport heavy grain and grass back and forth.
Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw had a sense of powerlessness in their hearts at this time, they thought they were the fierce generals of the three armies, but the bravery of the Jizhou Army was a well-known thing, they were really unwilling to fight with Lin Sen, especially Zhang Jaw, the last time on the battlefield of Qi State, Lin Sen spared his life, but this time it may not be so lucky, if it is ......
The catapult had stopped, and Lin Sen saw that Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw did not attack, so he guessed the reason, and it took a while. Lin Sen stepped forward and shouted, "General Gao, General Zhang." I respect you as a man, and I don't want you to become Yuan Benchu's funeral objects. If you will surrender to me, I will treat you as a general, what do you think? ”
Gao Ran was displeased when he heard this, didn't he let them betray their lord and seek glory, Yuan Shao had the grace of knowing them, and worshiped as a general, if he abandoned Yuan Shao and returned to Lin Sen at this time, wouldn't it be a villain's act, although he might not be Lin Sen's opponent. But they don't want to bear this notoriety.
"Lin Sen, you are talking nonsense, if you want to fight, do you think that I am afraid of you?"
"Hahaha......" Lin Sen looked up to the sky and laughed: "I only give you a quarter of an hour to think about it, you can also retreat, but you can't go back to Jinan, I can let you return to Linzi, if you have to toast and don't eat and drink, then don't blame me for being ruthless." I think no matter how fast your hundreds of thousands of troops are, they can't be faster than my 500,000 iron horsemen. ”
The same situation, the same terrain, the difference is that there are 10,000 more white horses in Lin Sen's army. And there are 100,000 infantry to defend, the difference is that they only have 500,000 troops at this time, and their combat effectiveness is much different from last time. Whether to fight or retreat is an important choice in front of Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw.
Look at me, two. I look at you, it's a matter of life and death. It's okay to win, but if you lose, you're sure to die, just like Lin Sen said how he could run and outrun the 500,000 cavalry.
"General Lin, I hope you can keep your promise."
"The eldest husband has a promise, you can rest assured and boldly return to Yuan Benchu."
Gao Ran shouted: "The whole army retreats and returns to Linzi." ”
Gao Shun saw that Lin Sen really didn't give the order to attack, and hurriedly said, "Lord, did you just let them go?" ”
"Of course." Lin Sen said: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." ”
"However, this ......" Gao Shun still wanted to argue, Lin Sen waved his hand, signaling that it was okay, Guo Jia said from the side: "The lord has a good strategy, presumably Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw will not have any good fruit to eat when they return to Yuan Benchu." ”
"Feng Xiao knows what I mean, if it weren't for that, how could the two of them come to vote for me? It's a pity that a good general is a good general, and after this incident, the two of them will come to me sooner or later. ”
In an instant, everyone understood Lin Sen's intentions, in fact, Lin Sen didn't think about killing Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw at the beginning, but actually wanted to recruit the two, the intention was so deep that it was really difficult to guess.
"Zilong, you lead 200,000 cavalry to make a detour to Jinan and occupy Dongpingling first; Gao Shun, you lead all the infantry to Licheng, and report back to me after occupying the city. ”
"The last will be ordered." Lin Sen led the remaining 250,000 cavalry to follow Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw a few miles behind, and he still needed to prevent the two of them from playing any tricks.
Although Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw wanted to delay the time to return to the army, they dispelled their thoughts when they saw Lin Sen not far behind them, in case Lin Sen repented of attacking and killing them, then he would be playing with fire and self-immolation, but the news of the defeat had already been sent to report to Yuan Shao in Linzi at night.
"This Lin Sen will really take advantage of the fire to rob, take a look, this is Gao Ran's report, they have been defeated, and they are retreating back at a rapid pace, presumably at this time Jinan has fallen into the hands of Lin Sen."
Yuan Shao handed the military intelligence report to Feng Ji, Xu You and Guo Tu, and walked back and forth in the hall angrily, Feng Ji and the three of them took it and read it carefully, knowing the general situation, they understood their own situation, Lin Sen led the army to attack, they had to defend, Cao Cao did not say goodbye, busy with Xuzhou affairs, Lin Sen has no enemies in Jinan, and it is certain that it will be easily occupied.
Xu You turned his brain, came up with a plan, and said: "Lord, Luoyang's Li Dao and Guo Yan are available. ”
"Oh? Ziyuan said carefully. ”
"The Xiliang army is greedy, now Luoyang is in danger, Li Dao and Guo Yan urgently need foreign aid, if we send someone to contact it with heavy gifts, secretly form an alliance, and invite it to attack and conquer Bingzhou or Wei County, the elite of the Xiliang army, at that time, Lin Sen will inevitably return to the army, even if he does not return to the army, he will suspend the pace of attack, we will have enough time to quell the rebellion, and then recapture Jinan."
"Good, good." Yuan Shao clapped his hands again and again, and said several good words: "Ziyuan is really a clever plan, so he will send someone to Luoyang." ”
The three-way soldiers and horses attacked Le'an Kingdom very smoothly, Chun Yuqiong almost took Shouguang and its surrounding villages and towns without blood, and Liyi also captured Lixian, but Wang Qiang's sailors fled in advance and were not caught, and then under Yuan Shao's military order, he went north and joined forces with Tai Shici to prepare to level Wang Qiang's forces in one fell swoop.
The army of 1.5 million quickly reached the city of Le'an County, and there were only 50,000 elite soldiers in the city to defend it, but fortunately, there was plenty of grain and grass. Nothing worries for a short time.
The tragic siege battle was staged again, and Tai Shi Ci and Ko Yi added many attributes to the army. It makes the army without advanced or special classes very strong, and if the field king is strong, it will definitely be wiped out. But when it came to the siege battle, it was different, they had to resist the arrows that came from them, the spears that were extremely fast, the boulders with the wind, and they would die if they were not careful, and finally they reached the city pass, and found that the hot oil had fallen on the city walls, and under the rockets, the ladders and people were all burning. No one dared to come forward.
Siege warfare is like this, it is a war of attrition, whoever can't withstand the consumption of personnel and baggage first, who will be defeated first, Wang Qiang also relied on the materials accumulated in the past to support it, he did not have a first-class military general in history, the highest is the Yellow Turban general he collected at the beginning, but it is a third-rate level, and the player is the same.
So far in the game, there are very few players who have broken through the shackles of second-rate generals. Therefore, the general's attribute bonus to the soldiers is not so strong, but fortunately, the 50,000 troops are part of the very elite of the Alliance of Gods, and the soldiers are highly qualified, after many years of conquest. The force value has already exceeded 60 points and is about to reach 70 points, with blue and yellow weapons and equipment. Exceptionally powerful.
After Yuan Shao learned that Lin Sen had invaded Qingzhou, he seemed very anxious about the Le'an war. Every two days, people would be sent to inquire and Tai Shi Ci and Ko Yi were ordered to step up their attacks. Time waits for no one, to end the battle in Le'an, they still need to attack Lin Sen in the north.
For a month and a half, Tai Shi Ci and Lu Yi received several military orders urging the battle in a row, which made the two of them anxious, not that they didn't want to end the war, but in fact, this Le'an city was not easy to attack, Le'an County was built by Wang Qiang for several years, the city wall was tall and strong, they had taken more than 100,000 lives, Le'an still did not take it, and even the city wall was not damaged, it was really helpless.
However, Yuan Shao did not know what to do, and still kept urging the two to step up the attack, and there was already news that Lin Sen occupied Jinan and was resting, and would soon march into Linzi, Yuan Shao became more and more anxious, and the people sent to Luoyang had not returned, and he did not know whether it was successful or not.
For Wang Qiang's hard bone, as an enemy, Lin Sen still has some admiration, although he has secretly calculated himself, but he can block Yuan Shao's 1.5 million army with 50,000 troops, and his ability is still undoubted, but Wang Qiang has no foreign aid, and he doesn't know how long he can hold out.
Seeing Gao Lan and Zhang Jaw withdraw from Jinan, the important land of Jinan finally fell into his hands again, and the army was stationed in Dongpingling County, waiting for Chu Yan to lead the garrison to take over the defense, he invaded Qi in the east, the goal was Linzi, as a place for soldiers to fight, take Linzi, whether it was Le'an or Beihai, he would attack wherever he wanted.
Qingzhou went well, but there was no accident on the state side, Lin Sen in order to avoid Wang Qiang in reality, the phone card had already been thrown away, and after changing the new card, he didn't tell anyone, that is to say, in reality, no one could contact him except the landlord, which made a mistake.
Yuan Shao spent a lot of money in order to invite Li Dao and Guo Yan to send troops, and Li Dao and Guo Bi were also very happy about Yuan Shao's kindness, after all, they are in a difficult situation now, if they form an alliance with the world-famous Yuan clan, it will be of great benefit to themselves, how can there be any reason to disagree.
It's just that where to send troops has to be exquisite, compared to Jizhou, which has been developed for many years, they are still more willing to attack the newly occupied by Lin Sen, Jizhou is too difficult to capture, it is easy to get in and difficult to get out, in the past, there was no good end to attacking Jizhou, or it is better to merge with the state, anyway, their purpose is to snatch money and food, force Lin Sen to withdraw from Qingzhou, which is not to fight.
After two years of development, the Xiliang Army has grown from less than 300,000 to 500,000, and there are several generals, which is really difficult to deal with, but in reality, it can't be reported to Lin Sen, so there is no way to send troops to support Chen Dao in Jiguan, and at the same time send people to Qingzhou at the same time.
After Zhang Liao, who was stationed in Wei County, learned the news, he immediately organized the main army of 100,000 troops, and rushed to Bingzhou with Xu Shu, which was the military order left by Lin Sen before leaving, Yan Liang and Wen Chou continued to guard Wei County, and Tian Feng was the commander-in-chief.
Three days after the sentry was sent out, Li Wei suddenly thought of the forum, and he was a little confused for a while, he forgot the news of the forum, and sent the battle situation of the state to the forum, Lin Sen would definitely know as soon as possible, and immediately landed on the forum after thinking about it, released this news, and then continued to mobilize grain and grass from all over the country to Jiguan.
I have to say that Li Wei's trick really worked, the next day Lin Sen knew the news, and also knew that Li Dao and Guo Yan had 500,000 troops, and the annoyance in his heart was certain, calm down and think about it, it is still important to merge the state, this time Qingzhou may not be able to be captured, the Xiliang army is very strong, if there is a change in the state, it will be more than worth the loss......
