Tai Shi Ci was originally stationed in Liyang County, and according to Yuan Yao's orders, he guarded against Sun Ce's attack.

However, because of what happened in Shouchun later, Yuan Yao sent him a message that after Zhang Xun took over his defense with soldiers and horses, he could return to Runan County with his soldiers and horses.

Not long after the news was sent, Zhang Xun quickly came to Liyang with tens of thousands of troops, and according to the agreement with Yuan Yao, he soon took over the defense of Liyang County and Changxing County.

Tai Shici originally led the army back according to Yuan Yao's statement, but Dantu County still had some business to go, and they planned to return by water.

It was delayed for a few days, and who knew that something big would happen in the next few days.

Zhang Xun's house, An Nai couldn't hold back his excitement of regaining power, and after leading the soldiers and horses to Wu County, he did not stop in Danyang at all, but directly took the soldiers and horses to kill Wu County, wanting to eliminate Sun Ce in one fell swoop and regain his reputation.

Zhang Xun thought, in fact, was not wrong, Sun Ce's whereabouts were unknown at that time, and the Wu Jun army was newly defeated, and the army was lost.

Now is the time when morale is low, and attacking at this time can indeed have a miraculous effect.

However, it is a pity that Zhang Xun did not fight steadily, but raided all the way, and wanted to pacify the entire Wu County within half a month, so he went directly to Wu County, the base camp of Wu County.

He set out from Xingguo County, the army was only two hundred miles away from Wu County, and in half a month, if he took Wu County, the entire Wu County's strength would be disintegrated.

But it is precisely in this way that the long drive of the army allows Sun Ce's army, which is entrenched in Wu County, to find an opportunity.

Han Dang and Zhang Hong originally had thousands of troops under their commands, and when Yuan Yao attacked, they requisitioned defenders from all over the country, and for a time the number of troops under their command reached an unprecedented 15,000 people.

The army was stationed along the road in Wu County, just waiting for the soldiers and horses led by Zhang Xun to kill over, and the two sides launched a big battle before and after Wu County.

However, the soldiers and horses on Han Dang's side, after all, are only defensive and do not need to attack, so they have an advantage, and he only needs to wait for Zhang Xun's food to run out, and then he will take the initiative to retreat.

After all, the food consumption of tens of thousands of troops is not a small amount, especially in this winter of food shortage, Zhang Zhao and others guessed that the reason why Zhang Xun was in such a hurry to attack was that there was not enough food and grass, and he wanted to fight quickly.

So they just need to delay the time, drag on the war for a few months, and the other side will withdraw on its own.

Originally, if it was just like this, Zhang Xun would not have been defeated so quickly.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven.

Sun Ce, who had disappeared for more than ten days, happened to return to Wu County from the south by detour, and after learning the news of Zhang Xun's attack on Wu County, he was immediately furious.

suffered losses one after another on Yuan Yao's body, and Sun Ce was in a rage at this moment, and he also wanted to regain his face.

Immediately gathered some villagers from the county seat, and with the more than 1,000 remnants of the soldiers he brought back, he quickly recruited 3,000 people, and only relied on these 3,000 people to attack the grain road between Changxing County and Wu County.

Zhang Xun was already greedy for merit, the battle line was too long, and he didn't figure out the terrain of Wu County, so he easily entered the boundary of Wu County, and there were not many people left near Changxing County at all.

After Sun Ce's army arrived here, it easily broke the connection between Zhang Xun and Changxing, and after losing the grain route, Zhang Xun's tens of thousands of troops exploded at once.

The grain in their hands can only last for half a month.

Therefore, we can only return to Changxing at all costs to stabilize the situation.

And what Sun Ce was waiting for was that they led the soldiers and horses to attack Changxing.

On the way back from Zhang Xun's army, he only used 3,000 soldiers and horses to set up an ambush, severely damaged Zhang Xun, and killed Zhang Xun's soldiers and horses and abandoned their armor.

Yuan Jing, the crown prince, was separated from the main force in the process of escaping, and was caught up by Sun Ce, who was pursuing behind.

After learning that Yuan Jing was Yuan Yao's younger brother and the new crown prince of Yuan Shu, Sun Ce didn't even hesitate, directly beheaded him on the spot, and sent the head to Zhang Xun.

As a result, Zhang Xun, who was naturally angry, jumped like thunder, and he didn't care that he had just suffered a defeat now, so he immediately raised his troops to confront Sun Ce head-on.

At this moment, Sun Ce had already joined up with Han Dang's soldiers and horses, gathered 18,000 men and horses, and fought against Zhang Xun's 30,000 remnants of the army, only one battle, Zhang Xun's soldiers and horses lost more than half again, and they were killed by Sun Ce and fled in embarrassment.

In less than half a month, the county seat of Changxing, which Yuan Yao had fought so hard, was lost again.

and lost Yuan Shu's 50,000 soldiers and horses.

After the news was transmitted back to Shouchun, Yuan Shu, who was still in the fantasy of dominating the world, suddenly spurted out a mouthful of old blood and couldn't afford to get sick.

"Childe, that's the way it is, Liyang, Changxing and other places that we finally fought down were all lost by Zhang Xun."

"Fortunately, when I was leaving, I explained a few words to Zheng Bao and asked him to strengthen his defense, but Danyang has not fallen into the hands of Sun Ce yet."

Yuan Yao listened to Tai Shici's description, and suddenly his expression was not good-looking.

Although Zhang Xun wanted to go to Jiangdong to find trouble with Sun Ce, it was the result of his encouragement, but Yuan Yao didn't expect that Zhang Xun would lose so quickly.

In just half a month, he lost all the 50,000 troops, and threw back several county towns that he had defeated.

"Stupid, just stupid!"

Yuan Yao patted the chair next to him vigorously, and cursed with a gloomy expression.

This is still by Zhang Xun's side, and Yuan Yao can't wait to slaughter this stupid guy immediately.

finally frustrated Sun Ce's prestige, so that Sun Ce would definitely need to recuperate in a short period of time, and he couldn't toss any moths.

Unexpectedly, after only half a month, Zhang Xun lost all the good situation that Yuan Yao had brought down.

Not only did Sun Ce regroup, but he also lost tens of thousands of Yuan Shu's army, and once again dealt a blow to Yuan Shu's strength.

Fortunately, the basic market of Danyang County is still there, although Zheng Bao's strength is not strong, but with the help of his two righteous brothers Zhang Duo and Xu Gan, it should not be a problem to gather 20,000 or 30,000 people.

As long as Zheng Bao doesn't take the initiative to find trouble with Sun Ce, as long as he sticks to Danyang, the problem should not be too big.

"I know the matter, let's wait and see what happens for the time being, let's run Runan County well first."

"Ziyi, you came back just in time, I remember you told me last time that you went to Liaodong when you were young, and you must be proficient in riding, right?"
