Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 238 The Two Sides with Heavy Casualties (4)
"Replace the forbidden army Yu Lin Wei with a halberd!"
This is the best plan that Cao Mengde's strategists have come up with, it seems to be a lose-lose situation, but in fact it is to pave the way for Cao Mengde.
Because Yu Linwei, the forbidden army beside Liu Xie, is the most loyal existence to him, not to mention other things.
It's that almost every one of these people is fighting desperately for this emerging big man, although they haven't resounded all over the world.
But all the generals who have been fighting in the battle array all the year round understand that a large army that fights in this situation is definitely an elite.
It is precisely by relying on these people that Liu Xie was able to add a Liu Ye's Huainan soldiers to suppress those guys who had been murderous in the world and divided one side.
That Uncle Zhang Ji, that Ma Teng father and son...
In this world, if you want to suppress people like them, you can only rely on real strength, and it will definitely not be anything else.
Cao Mengde is like this, and so is Liu Xie.
And this time, although Cao Mengde could not suppress Liu Xie's arrogance and the momentum of the rise of the Han Dynasty, he relied on this method to break the wings of the most elite and loyal soldiers and horses under his command.
It makes sense!
And what will happen after the absence of the forbidden army Yu Linwei?
"Once Liu Xie loses Yu Linwei beside him, then for his own safety and for the safety of Chang'an.
The Huainan soldiers and horses, who are now preparing to stay in Bingzhou, will definitely be transferred back to Chang'an by Liu Ye, the executive of Jinwu.
In this way, only one of Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses is still stationed in this annexed state, and they are still too busy to defend, let alone attack.
In the future, when we attack Jizhou, we really don't need to worry about how this state will send troops.
Second, after he Liu Xie lost Yu Linwei, the balance under his command was broken again, if you want to stabilize the situation, the best way is to weaken the military power of Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew and Ma Teng's father and son.
In this way, we can convince them that even if they can't rebel directly, we can also make them suspicious!
Third, he, Liu Xie, lost Yu Linwei, and if he wants to replenish quickly, he can only increase his strength as soon as possible.
And this army is already powerless to intervene, and there is no place for him to move in the land of Hongnong County and Hanoi.
Liu Jingsheng of Jingzhou is a relative of the Han family, and he has never been sorry for the court for a moment in his face, and he is rude when he sends troops.
As for Hanzhong and even Bashu... Not to mention for the time being, this Liu Zhang is also from the Han family.
It's just that the road in Hanzhong is not ordinarily difficult, how much experience does it take for him Liu Xie to be able to get through this Hanzhong?
Therefore, his only path is to attack Yongliang... ”
Guo Jia saw that the time was ripe, so he directly said all the words that Xun You had never finished.
made Cao Mengde and his generals feel a little relieved.
At the same time, he glared angrily at Na Xun You, and asked him to quickly say the next words by himself, and to show his attitude.
Sure enough, this time, Xun Yu didn't continue to be bored.
After a brief hesitation, he closed his eyes and walked out slowly.
"Gong Cao, if His Majesty chooses to attack the Yongliang Land at this time, then he will definitely be able to deal with the many heroes in the Yongliang Land.
In the land of Yongliang, the prestige of the imperial power is the weakest, and they don't value it.
The most important thing is that if they do this, they will definitely sink themselves into the quagmire of the Cool Land.
It seems that there are many warriors in the land of Yongliang, and if you can subdue Qianghu, you don't have to worry about the number of soldiers and horses.
But the grain and grass will become the biggest hidden danger in His Majesty's heart.
There is not much usable land in the Yongliang Land now, and both Hu and Han are accustomed to plundering for a living, and they are also disobedient to discipline under bravery.
By the time he cleans up the Yongliang land, then we have already occupied the land of Hebei and completely subdued Hebei.
At that time, under the rule of Cao Gong, there were three states in the Central Plains, Xu, Yu and Yan, and Hebei in Hebei, a total of six states, plus the heart of Si Li!
And that... His Majesty seemed to have the land of the three states in his hands, but none of the land of the three states could be used to support the people.
The state is dilapidated, desolate and barren, and it may be difficult to last just by relying on the small land east of the river.
At that time, we can send troops in three ways, attack Hedong, seize the annexed state, and then persuade Qianghu to encircle Yongliang.
Thinking that at that time, Han Sui and the various forces in this desolate land had already been wiped out, wouldn't it be beautiful for me to invite His Majesty back to Luoyang again?
Why do you have to fight with that majesty to the end at this time, in the end, I can't wait for a good end.
Do you want to let Na Yongliang give birth to turmoil again?
Could it be that Han Sui had to be called the hero of Yongliang, Qiang Hu destroyed the land of the Three Qins, and Zhang Yan returned to Taihang again, and the giant Kou was rampant and let the state disappear to be satisfied? ”
Xun You was obviously saying something that made him very, very uplifted, obviously when he said this, he wanted to strangle those guys who insisted on fighting Liu Xie to the death, and even didn't care about others.
But the tone of his voice was still flat, still simple.
This is Xun You, so people don't care about it, but they don't dare to have the slightest carelessness of Xun You...
And Xun You's words finally completely dispelled Cao Mengde's doubts, and this time Cao Mengde did not hesitate.
Immediately, an order was given, and the order was put down.
even asked Yan Xing to immediately send a message to Han Sui, wanting him to continue to cooperate with him and continue to help him.
Then there is only one way, let him send his son and Yan Xing's parents and family to stay in Luoyang!
As for whether he will agree to this order, to be honest, Cao Mengde is not very worried.
He Han Sui is not a person who cares about his son and family, he... It's very stable!
And these news came out quickly, which also means that the war in Nahongnong County has finally entered the final stage.
Zhang He received an order, and in the last half a month, he would attack desperately and capture the Han Emperor Liu Xiegui Luo.
And Song Xian and the others also got the order to stop the soldiers and horses under Na Jia Xu desperately for half a month.
But this half a month can't go head-to-head with it, and find a way to delay the other party...
In this way, it is actually not a very difficult thing to destroy, destroy the official roads of Hongnong County, set up many roadblocks, and then let Wei Xu constantly lead troops to attack their rear.
Cao Mengde, who got Hanoi and Guandu supplies, also had some cavalry, and Wei Xu was a general under Lu Bu.
There are also some cavalry in his hands, but now they are not completely handed over to Cao Mengde.
Now relying on these cavalry to attack Na Jia Xu's rear grain road, this method is used to delay the speed of Jia Xu's march.
But it is equally simple to break the situation, that is, to make part of the grain and grass into dry food, and then hand it over to Gan Ning and the more than 1,000 people under his command.
This is the vanguard army that wants to go to the rescue first, and use them to rescue Liu Xie, which will not be delayed by grain and grass.
And Song Xian's role was to lead the troops to firmly block these more than 1,000 people, and prevent them from entering the battlefield where Liu Xie and Zhang He were fighting.
On the other side of the main battlefield, Zhang He attacked like crazy, and in just six or seven days, the euphorbia under his command was almost seven or eight out of ten.
And the elite under Gao Ran's command was completely lost.
Not only that, Han Hao, who was responsible for blocking Ma Chao and attacking the camp at the foot of the mountain, finally announced that he couldn't hold on.
In the absence of food and grass to worry about, he Ma Mengqi was really not something Han Hao could deal with, and after rushing and killing again and again, Ma Chao finally brought out the iron cavalry under his command.
When the cavalry appeared on the battlefield again, Ma Chao also directly used the simplest and most direct method to break through the opponent's defenses.
"Kill!"
With Ma Chao's roar, the Yongliang Iron Horse once again crisscrossed the field, and this Han Hao can be regarded as quite a bit of natural ability.
But there are more strategies than battle formations, and the soldiers under his command can be called elite, but they can't be compared with the Euphorbia soldiers at all.
In the end, in the trampling of the war horses of the Yongliang Iron Cavalry, he could only fight and retreat, and gave up the rear soldiers again and again in exchange for the safety of the large army.
Doing so will not only cost a lot, but will even affect his morale, but this is already the best that Han Hao can do.
In the midst of the battles again and again, Han Hao finally began to rout, but fortunately, Han Hao's prestige in the army was good, which allowed him to stabilize the final situation.
Under the response of Gao Ran and others, he joined Zhang He and the remaining euphorbia.
After this fight, Zhang He finally chose to retreat, relying on the remaining halberds to keep retreating in exchange for peace.
And Liu Xie's crisis can be regarded as truly over.
did not wait for Na Jia Xu's reinforcements, and of course did not wait for Tongguan's reinforcements.
It took nearly half a month, and Yu Linwei, the forbidden army under Liu Xie, under the leadership of Hao Zhao, finally resisted the attacks of the Euphorbia Warriors again and again.
Hao Zhao was almost completely suppressed by Zhang He in the later stage, and he was forced to only defend the danger in exchange for the last chance.
Sure enough, this method made all Zhang He's ideas come to naught, and in the end he could only storm the camp again and again.
And the consequence was that the Euphorbia suffered heavy casualties, but the forbidden army Yu Linwei also suffered heavy casualties.
It can even be said that ...
"Yu Linwei... Gone? Liu Xie, under the escort of Hao Zhao, walked in the dilapidated camp, looking at the soldiers who did not have the slightest joy of victory.
His face was equally gloomy.
"Your Majesty... Our losses in this battle were indeed very heavy.
It was the incompetence of the last general, and there was no way to restrain the Euphorbia, which eventually led to the fact that there were less than 1,000 people left in my Yu Linwei in the end.
If it weren't for General Ma Chao rushing out at a critical moment, I'm afraid... ”
"Well, this matter has nothing to do with you... You've done a great job! Liu Xie finally didn't blame Hao Zhao in front of him.
But when he looked in the direction of the mountain, his eyes were full of cruelty.
