Zhang Liao has led the Yulin Cavalry into the Hedong region for more than half a month.

It didn't take long, but it had already stirred up the entire Bingzhou into a mess of mud, and what was even more interesting was that as Yulin rode into the Bingzhou area, the Black Mountain thieves who were originally rampant in Bingzhou also took the opportunity to make trouble, causing Yuan Shao's soldiers to have to use all kinds of means to deal with all kinds of messy situations.

In this case, where is the energy to take care of Gongsun Zhan?

What's more, in Yuan Shao's eyes, it doesn't matter whether Gongsun Chan, the defeated army, is dead or alive, because Gongsun Chan not only lost his own territory, but also damaged the white horse Yicong that he relied on the most.

Gongsun Zhan, who has no soldiers and no territory, can no longer pose a threat to Yuan Shao, and at this time, Yuan Shao doesn't mind showing his mind and leaving the lives of Gongsun Zhan's family - even if Yuan Shao's strategists and generals suggest that they be killed, Yuan Shao doesn't take this matter too seriously

Especially after the emergence of a mysterious army and horses in the Bingzhou area, and Zhang Yan, who had been entrenched in the border of Bingzhou, took the opportunity to make trouble, he also took the opportunity to focus his attention on these two people, and as for Gongsun Zhan, he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

For this reason, Yuan Shao mobilized Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the two most trustworthy generals under his account, in Yuan Shao's eyes, no matter who is in the state lot, as long as these two people go, all troubles can be solved.

"I'm sure to teach those self-defeating guys a lesson!"

It's just that half a month has passed, Yan Liang and Wen Chou still haven't come with any good news, although Yuan Shao is a little anxious, but he also knows that only half a month has passed, there is no need to care so much, but he always feels that there is a feeling of not being happy in his heart, and this feeling has become stronger and stronger with the passage of time.

At the same time, Zhang Liao rode in with Yulin for a while, and after hiding in an area that was not very noticeable, he let the troops rest on the spot.

Instead of setting up camp or even lighting a fire, scouts were sent out to take a long turn and make sure it was safe to raise a fire to rest and eat some hot food.

As a general, Zhang Liao was naturally able to get the good things as soon as possible, but at the moment he didn't enjoy it there, but called the two deputies over and studied the next direction on the map together.

From the very beginning of crossing the Yellow River, Zhang Liao led the Yulin cavalry straight to Xie Liang, took the soldiers and horses around Xie Liang, and immediately fled away after destroying many farms' fields and killing some local soldiers.

They have been doing such a move for this time, and now the entire Bingzhou has been tossed into a mess by them, but after the initial chaos, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses have begun to mobilize and assemble, according to Zhang Liao's estimate, within ten days, the soldiers and horses led by Yan Liang and Wen Chou will surround them.

Ma Chao looked down at the map fixedly, and pondered for a long time before he said: "Otherwise, we will attack Hedong directly!"

"Attack Hedong?"

Hedong is also Anyi, where it is the seat of Hedong County, and laying down Anyi is equivalent to directly occupying the center of Hedong County, and even blocking the traffic key points of the counties east of Hedong County to the west.

But...... What is the significance of laying down Hedong for them?

"Our main thing this time is to harass, occupying the city and seizing land is not the purpose of this time, if we occupy Anyi, we will be confined to the city, and we will not be able to give full play to the maximum combat power of our Yulin Cavalry!"

Tai Shici never spoke, and even he didn't speak much in normal times, he followed Zhang Liao or Ma Chao all day long, trying to absorb all the fresh knowledge.

Zhang Liao could see that Tai Shici was still adapting to these new knowledge, and when he fully accepted and mastered it, then he would be able to exert his true strength. ..., this time, he also intended to take Tai Shi Ci to make him more familiar and familiar, and he didn't expect Tai Shi Ci to come up with any ideas, but what he didn't expect was that Tai Shi Ci put forward his own suggestion at this time.

"I think what Meng Qi said is not impossible!"

"Oh?"

Zhang Liao is not a general who is arbitrary and does not listen to the advice of his subordinates, not to mention that Zhang Liao is still young at this time, and he has no great merits, and he feels that his experience is shallow, so he attaches great importance to the suggestions of others.

Seeing that Tai Shici suddenly spoke, Zhang Liao made a gesture and motioned for him to continue.

"Anyi is the seat of Hedong County, and its importance to Hedong County is self-evident! If we lay down Anyi, the impact on Yuan Shao and his subordinates can be imagined!"

If Anyi is really defeated, then Yuan Shao and his subordinate martial arts will definitely be flustered and anxious while being extremely surprised, and they will definitely not let their troops and horses stay in Anyi City safely.

"In other words, laying down Anyi will make Hedong and even the entire state chaotic, which is also our original purpose!"

Tai Shi Ci pondered for a while, and saw that Zhang Liao didn't say anything, so he continued.

"At the same time, we don't have to give up the strengths of our Yulin Ride for a city, after Anyi is captured, we don't need to defend the city, but mainly destroy・・・・・・ city defense, farmland, workshops and warehouses, grain and grass can be taken, not burned on the spot and then we can abandon the city and leave!"

"You can even come and give those soldiers and horses who came to the rescue a hard time when you leave!" Ma Chao's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he answered directly.

Tai Shi Ci nodded: "That's right, it's not impossible to even take the opportunity to defeat one of Yan Liang or Wen Chou!"

After finishing speaking, Tai Shici just stared at Zhang Liao, wanting to see how he would decide?

After being silent for a moment, I saw Zhang Liao pointing to Wen Xi's position and saying, "Let's go here!"

Seeing this, Tai Shici couldn't help but sigh a little, but it was normal to attack Wenxi, and he could avoid being surrounded by Yuan Shaojun.

Unexpectedly, just thinking like this, I saw Zhang Liao's finger suddenly turn on the map: "Then suddenly go south and go straight to Anyi, catch them off guard, so that you can buy enough time to destroy those targets in Anyi!"

This time they were fighting within the enemy's territory, and before they came, Liu Xuan specially summoned him and talked to him a lot.

This includes prioritizing the destruction of objects and things when fighting in enemy territory.

Although Yuan Shao's territory is also the world of Da Xuan, it can also be regarded as Liu Xuan's land. The people of Hebei are also the people of the Han Dynasty, but they can't think about it so much at this time.

When you are fighting, if you worry so much, you will only get yourself into trouble.

As for whether the people of Bingzhou will suffer any disasters after Zhang Liao has seriously damaged these things, it is not for Liu Xuan to consider.

He even wanted to use this means to force the people of Bingzhou to move outward, preferably to the sphere of influence of the imperial court.

Although the population of Yongzhou is relatively high, Sizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, which have been ravaged by the war, have lost a large amount of population. Most of them poured into Jingzhou and Jiangdong.

Although some Hebei people went south to enter these areas because of the war in Hebei, in Liu Xuan's view, this was not enough. He hoped that more people would come.

Sending Zhang Liao to sabotage the annexed prefectures can be regarded as a means of forcing the people to move - dishonorable, but this method is very effective.

Because at present, in the world, only the areas under the jurisdiction of the imperial court have enough food to feed so many people who have left home, and the rest of the people, even Yuan Shao, who owns the four prefectures of Hebei, are powerless because of the successive wars. ..., if the population of Hebei decreases because of this, then it will be a great blow to Yuan Shao. Because in this era, not only is conscription based on a huge population base, but at the same time, people are needed to grow food, people are needed to make weapons, and even logistics and transportation need to rely on people, Liu Xuan forced the people under Yuan Shao's command to move, which was to weaken Yuan Shao's strength from the root and increase himself at the same time.

If you can strengthen yourself and weaken your enemies, why not?

But having said that, for some reasons, Yulin Cavalry could not directly go to Bingzhou to rampage this time, so although the set of light armor specially made for Yulin Cavalry had gathered five thousand sets, this time it was not equipped, but instead wore relatively tattered clothes, and only came out with an quiver and a specially equipped ring head knife.

So at first glance, it's similar to the Liukou, but everyone in this branch of the Liukou carries bows and arrows, which is very unusual, but as long as they don't really fight with the Yulin Cavalry, they won't notice this.

After making a plan, Zhang Liao let the troops rest for one night, and before dawn the next day, he set off with the team and went straight to the east. Along the way, he didn't hide at all, and he ran to Wen Xi with great fanfare

Such a big movement, Wen Chou and Yan Liang could naturally perceive it, and Wen Chou, who was competing with each other, immediately changed the direction of the troops' advance and rushed straight to Wen Xi, according to his estimates, although the strange rogue was extremely fast, but because he was closer, he was still able to arrive first, and then he could wait for the arrival of this army according to the city.

Yan Liang was a little depressed, he had just come out of Anyi with his soldiers and horses, but this group of bandits suddenly rushed to Anyi, Yan Liang could only adjust the direction of travel to the rescue, but the direction he chose to go just blocked the back road of this branch of the bandits, and when the time came, he would definitely give this group of bandits a good look.

When he was complacent, he didn't expect Zhang Liao to take his Yulin Ride on a big detour, and after going around in a circle and completely confusing everyone, he turned his head south and went straight to Anyi.

At this time, Yan Liang still thought that he was still following behind this group of soldiers and horses and was advancing towards Wen Xi, and Wen Chou had already arrived at Wen Xi, standing on the city wall at this time, waiting for the thieves to come.

And Anyi, which was set by Zhang Liao as the real target, although the city gate was not wide open at this time, it did not have any precautions at all!
