Chapter Seventy-Eight: Attack on Xiangping

Ye Ke slaughtered the Wuheng people, and set up the Jingguan to threaten it, and then burned Liucheng, and arranged for his subordinates to lead the captured Han people back to the Central Plains, along the way, in addition to the 50,000 elite cavalry recruited by small and medium-sized tribes everywhere, there were also cattle, sheep and horses, about 500,000 heads, at a glance, boundless.

The army marched west, but Ye Ke privately summoned Tian Chou and asked: "I heard that the Taishou Gongsun Du of Liaodong took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to cut the land and claim the king. On behalf of the Son of Heaven, my father recruited Gongsun Du to be a general of Wuwei and named the Marquis of Yongning, and Gongsun Du said, "I am the king of Liaodong, what do you want Yongning to do", and hid the seal ribbon in the arsenal. Has Mr. Tian heard about this? ”

Tian Chou smiled bitterly: "I have naturally heard about this, but Gongsun Du lives in Liaodong, Xiangping City is deep-rooted, and our army is not familiar with the road, how can it be easily attacked?" ”

Ye Ke smiled: "Don't worry about Mr., I've already found a guide, as long as Mr. Tian covers my whereabouts for a few days." ”

Tian Chou said solemnly: "The general is planning for the country to fight Liaodong, how can I, Tian Chou, lose a big one because of a small one?" ”

On the second day, Ye Ke said that he was ill, and Youtian Chou led the army to escort tens of thousands of Han people, plus 50,000 elite cavalry, and countless booty to the Central Plains, while Ye Ke secretly provoked 4,000 soldiers under his command, quietly left Liucheng, went north around Changli County, passed through Yiwulu Mountain, and rushed to Xiangping City along a deserted path known to the guide.

When Liaodong was too guarded by Gongsun Du, he proclaimed himself the Marquis of Liaodong and the pastor of Pingzhou, and used Weifu in the Liaodong area for his own use, as if he was the king of Liaodong.

When he heard that Cao Cao had sent his son-in-law Cao Zhang to lead a large army to conquer Wuheng, he summoned his subordinate officials to discuss the matter.

Yang Yi said: "Cao Zhang is a brave general in the world, unparalleled in the world, kill Yuan Tan, kill Yuan Shang, behead Gao Gan, scare Yuan Shao to death, Cao Cao got Hebei so easily, thanks to Cao Zhang's bravery." Today's expedition to Wuhuan will be able to do its best. Don't be careless. ”

Liu Yi said: "Cao Zhang's courage is superb, no less than Xiang Yi, and he is also a flying general in the world, but in my opinion, he is just a brave and unscrupulous person, who only cares about the conquest of Wuheng, and will never turn his troops to the east without Cao Cao's order." It should be known that in terms of topography, it is easy to break Wuheng, and it is difficult to attack Liaodong. Our army only needs to hold on to the city and send more scouts to investigate, and it should be fine. ”

Zhang Chang said with a smile: "What the princes said is reasonable, but don't ignore one thing, Cao Zhang'er, go far into the mountains and deserts to attack Liucheng, even if you defeat Badun, I'm afraid it will become the end of the strong crossbow, and the soldiers have serious battle losses, where can you dare to peep into my Liaodong?" ”

Gongsun Du said with a smile: "Yes, I expect Cao Zhang'er to be complacent after conquering Liucheng, and return to the Central Plains with the spoils of war triumphantly." However, don't be careless, and order the soldiers of each city to strictly guard the city, send more horses, and don't be cautious. ”

This is the right thing to do, and if a powerful family member does not have this caution, his head would not know where to move for a long time.

A few days later, the news came that Cao Zhang broke Wuheng, killed Yuan Xi, Badun and Louban, arrived at Zhi and others, slaughtered tens of thousands of people in Wuheng, and built a Jingguan; Tens of thousands of cavalry were captured, and countless cattle, horses, and horses were escorted back to the Central Plains.

After the news came, Gongsun Du laughed and said, "Soldier, treacherous." Therefore, it can be shown but cannot be used, and it is not used to show it. Cao Zhang's military prowess in Liucheng, building a fortress in Beijing, and restraining the people, seems to be indispensable, thinking that the soldiers are tired, and the three armies are like arrows. ”

Everyone said: "Cao Zhang's courage is invincible, but he has no strategic heart, and the weather is getting cold, as long as we ignore him, he will only obediently return to the Central Plains." ”

Gongsun Kang, the son of Gongsun Du, said with a smile: "Even if Cao Cao personally conquered Liucheng, he can only return to the Central Plains with peace of mind, and he doesn't dare to face my land in Liaodong!" This Cao Zhang's child, fourteen years old, although he is brave enough to cover Huaxia, but unless his brain is pumped, he will definitely not appear in Liaodong! ”

At this moment, a thunderous voice suddenly came from outside: "Gongsun Du!" I, Cao Zhang, personally led the Central Plains athletes, and I will meet you, a warlord who cuts land and is king! ”

"Boom!"

With this rolling thunder, the main hall of the Liaodong Wangfu in Xiangping Mansion shook violently and crumbled, and everyone sat in the hall like a chicken, at a loss. After a long time, Gongsun Du jumped up and exclaimed incredibly:

"This Cao Zhang really dares to come? How many people did he bring? Why haven't I received any message? ”

Why didn't I receive the message? Of course, it is because of the vast and sparsely populated area of Liaodong. In the entire four counties of Liaodong, there are only 500,000 or 600,000 people, and 4,000 people go to sparsely populated places, which is really convenient.

What's more, when Ye Ke was Emei Su Shaoying in his previous life, he had traveled in the Liaodong area, and he was very familiar with the mountains and rivers in this area.

Rao was like this, 4,000 men and horses galloped all the way, and more than 30 people fell behind along the way.

Fortunately, this fine horseman, there are 300 Ye Ke personally passed on the cavalry, each of them is tall and big, the muscles are knotted, the people are like dragons, the horses are like tigers, and the momentum is violent, like a giant beast in the wilderness.

And at this time, it was noon, the gate of Xianping was opened, Ye Ke personally led three hundred giant beasts of the wilderness, suddenly appeared from the barren bushes outside the city, like a tide to the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not speak, Ye Ke's halberd waved, and more than a dozen heads flew into the sky! Three hundred elite horsemen followed, rushed up the city wall, and slaughtered the stunned defenders one by one!

As long as Ye Ke occupies the city gate, there will be absolutely no army in the world that can snatch it back, not to mention that there are few people in Liaodong, and there are naturally few soldiers who join the army, and there is a huge Xiangping City, but there are only 10,000 soldiers, and they can't react!

The 4,000 cavalry behind him took advantage of the situation and occupied the city gate.

Ye Ke entered the city, looked up to the sky and roared, making a rolling thunder, it was really a Xiangping City, and in the corners of the city, everyone heard his voice clearly, as if he was talking in people's ears.

The whole city of Xiangping was immediately bombed, and suddenly people shouted and neighed, children howled and cried, and the people rushed home, the soldiers looked at each other, and the officials trembled.

Gongsun Du is very human after all, his eyes flashed with fierceness, and he shouted: "Come with me, let me meet this milky child!" ”

His cavalry occupied the city gate, and Ye Ke performed a miracle again, splitting the city gate, smashing the houses near the city gate, and then leaving a thousand people, leading the rest of the elite cavalry, rushing in radial depth.

Gongsun Du proclaimed himself the king of Liaodong, and also put the seal of the Marquis of Yongning Township given to him by Cao Cao into the treasury.

But he didn't dare to really change the mansion to the brand of the king of Liaodong, because this was similar to Yelang's arrogance, and his mansion was called the mansion of the Marquis of Liaodong.

However, the Hou Mansion and the palace are almost the same, there are city walls and sentry towers, and when Gongsun Du led his subordinate generals to climb the city tower, Ye Ke had already attacked and killed along the way and rushed to the door.

"Cao Zhang'er, my Liaodong is also the land of the Han Dynasty, I was named the Marquis of Yongning by your father, why did you attack me?" Gongsun Du shouted.

Ye Ke sneered: "You old thief, when you attacked the counties of Donglai in Qingzhou, why didn't you know that you were the Yongning townsman of the Han Dynasty?" ”
