In November of the sixth year of Ganlu, the 100,000 army of Eastern Wu and Cangwu Taishou Tao Huang joined Hepu.

The war clouds in Jiaozhou are thick.

Yu Fan and Xue Jue thought that they were outnumbered, and with Chen Shang and Pan Jing as the front governors, they led 30,000 troops to take the core place of Jiaozhou - Jiaoluan.

Yu Yan and Xue Yu supervised the army behind.

Tao Huang felt that the Wu army had an advantage in the inner line, and the convenience of the navy army was beneficial in fighting for a long time, while the Qin army was brave and had a high fighting spirit, and the advantage was in a quick battle.

strongly persuaded the two to stabilize Hepu first, cut off Yulin, clear the threat to the west, cut off the connection between Nanzhong and Jiaozhou, and then slowly move south.

But at this time, the Tao clan was still a small clan, Yu and Xue were the big clans of the Wu State, and after the meritorious service, they naturally did not want to listen to a too loud noise, and they insisted on going south and taking Jiaolu first.

Qin Jiaoluan guarded Yang Ji too much, and he had already been fortified and cleared the wilderness, waiting for a long time.

Chen Shang and Pan Jing's two generals Fang Zhi, with an unstable foothold, thought that there were few soldiers and would definitely hold on.

However, Yang Ji did the opposite, leading 5,000 soldiers to kill, Yang Ji, Mao Jiong and other generals took the lead, and everyone used their lives, the morale of the Qin army was already high, and there was a psychological advantage in the last battle, and the army regarded the Wu army as nothing.

The scolding of "Wu Dog" resounded on the battlefield.

The Wu army could not resist, Yang Ji led five hundred elite armor soldiers, entered the middle of the Wu army, shot Pan Jing, Chen Shang was frightened, saw the Qin army pounced like a wolf and a tiger, turned around and ran, and was killed by the chaotic army.

Wu's army was defeated.

At this time, Dong Yuan came out of Yulin, and Huo Yi led Hu Sheng and others to send 30,000 troops out of Nanzhong and besieged Yang Ji on three sides.

Yu Yan and Xue Jue were so depressed that they didn't dare to fight, and they retired to Hepu.

The army of more than 100,000 people was defeated in such a discreet manner, so naturally someone had to take the blame.

Yu Yan and Xue Jue reproached Tao Huang: "Self-expression of the thief, and the loss of the second handsome, where is his responsibility?" ”

At the beginning, Tao Huang kept writing books, advocating the recovery of Jiaozhou, Jiaozhou was lost, and Lingnan was lost, and Jingzhou and Jiangdong were attacked on their backs.

Now that it has failed, Yu and Xue have brought up the old matter again, it is not that you Tao Huang wants to recover Jiaozhou, and the army will not be so decadent.

Tao Huang is not a person who is afraid of things, and refuted the two superiors in person: "The armies are not in harmony, so they are defeated." ”

Fighting for each other, with different thoughts, it has always been Wu Guoshen.

However, Tao Huang still left a line, not because of the poor command of the two of you, but because of the fault of the generals and soldiers below.

Xue Jue's anger has not subsided, the war is unfavorable, and staying in Lingnan will only ruin his future.

Xue Yu is the son of the young master Xue Zong, the prince of Wu, who entered the office, and as soon as he debuted, he was a general with facial features, and had a good relationship with Zhang Bu and Puyangxing.

The same is true of another prison soldier Yu Fan, who was born in the Huiji Yu clan, and is the son of Yu Tuo, a famous minister of Eastern Wu, and has the merit of supporting Sun Xiu, the lord of Wu.

The two main generals were like this, and the morale of the Wu army was low.

The 100,000-strong army was besieged by 40,000 or 50,000 Qin troops, and they didn't dare to move......

Seeing this situation, Tao Huang knew that it was useless to persuade again, and led 300 troops to attack Dong Yuanbu in the north that night.

The Qin army was unprepared for a while, Tao Huang marched in a noisy manner, killed the Quartet, obtained its treasures, and returned with the ship.

Wu Jun was full of admiration.

Xue Jue took Tao Huang as the front governor, led 10,000 troops, and counterattacked the Qin army.

Tao Huang saw that the Qin army was encircled, and knew that he could not fight, so he led his troops through the seaway and went straight to Jiaozhi.

Yang Ji led the troops back, and Tao Huang's sailors arrived first, set up an ambush halfway, and broke Yang Ji, Dong Yuan, Xie and other generals.

Yang Ji led the remnants of the army to fight their way out of the encirclement and retreated to Jiaoluan.

In the first leg of the Jiaozhou battle, both sides won and lost.

Tao Huang turned the tide and became the mainstay of the Wu army.

Subsequently, the two armies were locked in a standoff.

Tao Huang besieged Jiaoluan, and Huo Yi and Ling Husheng besieged Yu Yan's and Xue Yu's 90,000 troops......

The war lasted until the seventh year of Ganlu.

At this time, Zhang Fu, the envoy of the Qin State, also traveled thousands of miles and entered Jianye.

The two countries were at war, and naturally they had an extremely bad attitude towards the envoys.

Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing didn't even have the interest of meeting, so they sent Zhuge Liang to deal with it.

Zhang Fu was not in a hurry, he only traveled in Jiangdong, visited Jiangdong scholars, and secretly spied on the national situation of Eastern Wu.

Seeing that the people are tired, there are dishes on the face, there is no place to stand, the manors of the wealthy family are numerous, the mansions are even strange, the whole country is accustomed to it, the scholars are proud of the Qing talk, the lord of Wu is obsessed with hunting five stones, and the state affairs are taken care of by Zhang Bu and Puyang Xing, knowing that Wu must not be the opponent of Great Qin.

The facts were the same as he speculated, the news of the defeat of Wu's 100,000 army soon came, and Jianye was in an uproar.

The 130,000-strong army was prepared for several months, spending hundreds of millions of dollars in money and food, and in less than a month of engagement, two generals were beheaded, tens of thousands of horses were lost, and morale was lost.

After a few more days, the news of Tao Huang's defeat of Yang Ji and the confrontation between the two armies came back, which made the Jiangdong scholars feel a little relieved and sober.

The Qin army in Nanzhong is just a partial division, or the previous Shu army.

An army of more than 100,000 has the advantage of fighting on the inside line, and it can't even take down the 30,000 or 40,000 Shu army, let alone confront the elite of the wolf-like Qin army.

There is no harm without contrast.

Zhang Fu's salary in Jianye has been continuously improved.

The important ministers of Eastern Wu also began to summon them.

"Qin and Wu have no vendettas, but have a common enemy, why not attack the Sima clan to comfort the soldiers who died in Hefei and Shouchun?" Zhang Fu is full of confidence.

"Jiaolu is my homeland, and the country has been invaded for no reason, what does it mean to be innocent?" Zhang Bu personally stepped out.

"If it weren't for the princes who coveted the central and southern parts of Shu, why would there be such a fiasco?"

"Shuzhong and Nanzhong are the land of Shu, why can't we take it? If the Qin State is willing to return Bazhong, Nanzhong, and Jiaozhou, then the two families will form an alliance and jointly destroy the Sima clan! Pu Yangxing said with a wide tongue.

As soon as these words came out, the hall was extremely quiet.

Even if the ministers of Wu State were shameless, they couldn't help but look at each other.

General Ding Feng smiled wryly.

Zhang Fu laughed, "It seems that you are not sincere, and the matter of the alliance is not to be discussed." ”

Or Ding Feng is more practical, "The two families are aligned, how to divide Jiaozhou?" ”

More than 100,000 troops have been rushing in Jiaozhou, and Wu Guo can't hold it.

And there was a secret report from the front that Zhou Tai, the governor of Jiangnan in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, died of illness.

A complete Jingzhou is more attractive to Soochow.

Militarily, Ding Feng undoubtedly has more to say.

Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing are just clowns jumping off the beam, and Ding Feng is the pillar of Wu Guo.

In the past, I tolerated just to take care of the overall situation, but now I am coming forward for the sake of the overall situation.

The veteran will come out, and Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing will not make trouble.

The recovery of Jiaozhou is like this, and they have no face to see people.

The 90,000 troops of his cronies Xue Jue and Yu Yan were blocked by 30,000 or 40,000 Qin troops in Hepu and did not dare to fight.

It's a ridiculous joke.

However, this is also the style of Eastern Wu, when the emperor Sun Quan's 100,000 army attacked Hefei, which was defended by thousands of people, and was ...... by Zhang Liao

Zhuge Ke's 200,000-strong army besieged the new city guarded by 3,000 people......

The combat effectiveness of the Wu army has always been a mystery, in the hands of Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, it is like a tiger and a wolf, and in the hands of others, it is difficult to explain.

So the monarchs and ministers of Eastern Wu are used to it.

"Hepu returns to me, and the two families guard their own realm!" Zhang Fu took a good time.

Now that we have entered the bargaining stage, the matter of forming an alliance is logical.

However, this alliance is only a temporary truce.

Eastern Wu couldn't fight, and the Qin army actually didn't want to waste too much energy in Jiaozhou.

Ding Feng glanced at Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing and said with a smile: "Jiaoluan, Rinan, Jiuzhen return to Wu, and Yulin will send it to you." ”

Zhang Fu shook his head.

Ding Feng got up and said: "Yulin and Jiaolu will return to Qin, and the other two counties will return to Wu, so this matter will be stopped." ”

A veteran can naturally see that the Qin State will never hand over the two strategic places of Jiaolu and Yulin.

It happens to be the same as Yang Zheng's bottom line.
