Chapter 589 - The Counteroffensive Begins!

With Xu Shu's roar, the countless arrows flew away, and such a big battle that had already decided the ending finally came to an end....

With Xu Shu's order, hundreds of crossbows directly covered Zhang Hu's flag, and as for Zhang Hu under the flag, there was naturally no reason to survive.

Also in the spring of the twenty-eighth year of Jian'an, Xu Shu crossed the Yellow River, killed Zhang Hu, and pretended to open the city gate of Shangxian County, Hongnong County again, and killed the county order to behead the guards...

The Shang County that had just been taken away by the Cao Clan's soldiers and horses was recovered again.

Two days later, he directly attacked the small town of Shaanxi County from behind, and also broke the city in half a day, killing people and taking away grain and grass baggage, and at the same time organizing the township to defend it.

At the same time, he killed several local nobles with a bad reputation, distributed their land to the people, and exempted them from taxes for the next two years in the name of the Han Emperor.

Let them defend the city and keep it for themselves.

And again cover his direct evacuation ...

To the west of Shaanxi County is Hangu, if you send troops to Hangu at this time, you can fight back and forth with Fu Wei and others.

But this time, Xu Shu still didn't go to Hangu.

"Since Cao Zhang is in command of the army, then he will definitely protect Luoyang with his life, and then order the dead soldiers to garrison various cities for him.

In order to buy time for Luoyang, continue to build a defensive line between Kun and Miao, and add the unique terrain to continue to protect Luoyang.

That being the case, his third reinforcement... It should be the direction of Hongnong County! ”

At this time, Xu Shu began to study his own route again with the help of torches.

"Hongnong County is a county rule, so there will not be too few soldiers and horses here, and we have set up a Han banner in Shang County and Shaanxi County.

has created such a big momentum, and the news of Hangu has not yet been fully transmitted, so the people who came to help should know that something had changed halfway through.

He won't march again .... Over here! ”

In the end, Xu Shu directly designated his hand in a place between Hongnong County and Sankun Mountain, and then immediately ordered Chen Zhi's whole army to speed up again.

And this time, Xu Shu directly caught Li Zhen, the son of Li Dian.

It can even be said that... In this case, Xu Shu seemed to be bullying children, and specially picked those second generations of generals to start arresting.

And if you catch one, you have to kill one.

That look.... It's like digging a root for him!

At this time, Xu Shu looked at the guy who didn't react to what was going on, but would rather die than surrender.

He just shook his head helplessly.

"You don't have your father's bearing, how elegant your father Li Mancheng was back then.

He was called a Confucian general by the world!

Do you know what a Confucian general is?

It's okay, you know it's useless....

Even in the face of Zhang Liao, who participated in the slaughter of his entire clan, he would never scold.

You.... Ay!

You are not angry! ”

At this time, Xu Shu looked at Li Dian's son is output, and that appearance almost killed this Li Zhen here.

In the end, I didn't wait for Xu Shu to do anything.

This was accompanied by Xu Shu's sigh, as well as Xu Shu's slight wave of his hand, and then Kou Lin, who had been eager to try for a long time, cut off Li Zhen's head with a knife.

After Li Zhen's head landed, Xu Shu looked at the dead eyes, and finally couldn't help but speak quietly.

"Actually, this Li Zhen is also a good son, when this time the matter is over, I will definitely bury you and Zhang Hu together... Thick burial! ”

As Xu Shu said this sentence slowly, the corpse that had just fallen to the ground also convulsed.

As if to say... You persuaded to surrender, you didn't even persuade you, you gave a chance!

Also, what is that Zhang Hu doing, do you think that the hatred between the two of us is not big enough?

But it's a pity that this Xu Shu didn't understand it at all.

On the contrary, after seeing this scene, Xu Shu was still a little happy.

"Hmm... Looks like you agreed!

It's a pity, I don't know if Lu Bu's daughter is still alive, if she dies, she will marry the two of you in the future.

Under the Nine Springs, you can be regarded as letting your lady go...."

After saying this, the corpse stopped moving, but the faces of the surrounding generals couldn't help but start twitching.

When General Xu really fought and when he didn't, they were two completely different people.

It's so contradictory... It's so contradictory!

If this Li Zhen knows under the spring, I am afraid that he will be so angry that Xu Shu will be wiped out.

It's just too much!

It was just before, but now it's not a back, is it?

Zhang Liao and Li Dian were originally great enemies, and Lu Bu was even more of an enemy who did not share the sky!

Zhang Liao's son was buried with him, and Lu Bu's daughter married him together, even if Li Dian's temper was good under these nine springs, he had to beat this son to death again.....

But so far, the four-way soldiers and horses arranged by Cao Zhang's command, plus his regular army.

At this time, Xu Shu had already guessed four.

In addition to informing Wei Yan early on to be careful of Cao Jun's sneak attack, he even guessed that this Cao Zhang would send Zhang He out.

After all, at this time, Cao Zhang and Sima Yi had a lot of soldiers and horses in their hands, but there was only one cavalry general who could be used at this time.

Although there are many coalition forces between Xianbei and Xiongnu and even Wuhuan, the most capable of fighting among them has no chance of winning when facing Wei Yan.

That is, Zhang He was able to really fight with Wei Yan.

Wei Yan played against Zhang He, and now the two sides are playing well in Hedong County.

Attracted all the eyes to the past, and didn't notice that the inconspicuous Yuan Qi and Gao Xiang were going around Hedong for most of the time.

Even Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu began to watch the excitement....

As for the other four roads, Xu Shu, who was going to divide the troops and garrison them, broke the three roads, and the general also killed three, and even deduced the identity of the fourth head from these three heads.

"Is there something serious about this Cao Zhang?

Good guys, these are all the sons of the Cao general... Zhu Ling's son Zhu Shu, Li Dian's son Li Zhen, and Zhang Liao's son Zhang Hu.

The rest... Zhang He's son shouldn't be there, and the others... Li Tong's son?

This is really a father and son soldier in battle, is this how the Cao family uses it? ”

Xu Shu looked at the map in front of him and nodded vigorously at Pinglu's position.

"It's a pity, I know you'll be here, but it's a pity that I really don't have time to kill you.

Otherwise, I'll have to send you to see your father! ”

With this sneer, Xu Shu changed hands... Sneak attack on Lushi County in Hongnong County.

At the same time, the banner was held high so that Nanyang's soldiers and horses moved, and for a while, Nanyang and Hongnong were connected together in such a weird way.

Xu Shu and Chen Zhi, two unknown people, used no more than 2,000 men and horses, and they were interspersed with attacks all the way, almost beating the Hongnong County, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Homeopathic... The front of the army was pressed in Yingchuan County.

Looking at Yingchuan County, who was far behind him, Xu Shu just sneered.

"Hey... Hangu Pass is really a good place, if it weren't for the old general Huang Zhong who desperately took it down.

You really can't rely on Hangu Pass to attract the eyes of all of you to accomplish this plan. ”

"But... The current Hanya Pass... Does it matter? ”

With the sneer on his face, Xu Shu also directly led the troops into Nayingchuan County again at this time.

At this time, the Central Plains is called a chaotic place, Liu Xie, Zhao Yun, Cao Ren, and even Cheng Yu's army who doesn't know where he fled to.

The whole of Yuzhou is going to be a mess.

Who would have noticed the "small force" that has never been more than 2,000 soldiers?

And after Xu Shu entered Yingchuan, the second step of his plan also began.

The first to greet him was Liu Min, a general under Liu Xie, who was waiting here early.

"The last general, Liu Min, meet you...."

"That's it!" Xu Shu directly interrupted Liu Min's visit, "You followed Your Majesty during the Nanyang War.

Speaking of.... You are also an old man by His Majesty's side.

You and Jiang Wan, who are as close to you as you, and Pan Jun were once called the three heroes of Jingnan next to His Majesty, which is indeed good. ”

After listening to Xu Shu's boasting, Liu Min was not very happy, on the contrary, he was a little embarrassed after hearing these words.

If he hadn't known that Xu Shu would not belittle others easily, Liu Min would have already thought of doing it directly at this time.

"Xu... Xu Junshi laughed! After hesitating for a long time, Liu Min finally decided to call the general of the Right Army Division the Xu Army Division of the year.

Maybe that's a little more intimate.

He heard that when he participated in the first war of Yongliang, he called Xu Shu like this.

"Now Gongyan and Chengming are both important ministers in the court, and there are only the last generals..."

"Why, isn't this Hongnong County Guard better than the two of them?" Xu Shu couldn't help but chuckle at that Liu Min, "The sum of the two of them now is probably not as good as your two thousand stones!" ”

β€œ.... What Xu Junshi said is that it is the last general..."

Liu Min was also helpless at this time, of course he knew that the county guard of two thousand stones was quite good, but he also knew that Jiang Wan and Pan Jun were definitely not like this.

Don't look at the two of them plus a piece of Yulu is only 1,600 stones, but this is just the starting point.

is the same as Xu Shu at the beginning, it was Liu Xie who was preparing for the future, and he saw that others were accumulating a lot!

To put it simply and bluntly, they went to the path of the famous ministers of the Han Dynasty.

And he... I'm afraid that in the end, it will be the county guard of 2,000 stones!

Although he was helpless, as one of Liu Xiezhong's early "veterans", in fact, Liu Min was not too old, and he never thought about doing anything.

Isn't it, as soon as he heard that Xu Shu had already killed the Lu clan and waved the flag, he didn't say a word and rushed over with the soldiers and horses under his command.

And handed over his soldiers and horses to Xu Shu for command as soon as possible.

From the bottom of his heart, he is so active, in addition to his own commands, the most important thing is... Liu Min also saw that Xu Shu was going to take over some people at this time.

And the sooner he joins, the more credit he may get.

Although these two thousand stones are good, but... He also wants a chance to change the center.

And Xu Shu, who got this part of the defenders of Liu Min, the county guard of Hongnong County, also restored the number of soldiers and horses under his command to 5,000 again.

It's not too much, but it's enough to deal with a lot of problems.

"Soldiers!" Accompanied by Xu Shu's shout, "Follow me to kill Yingchuan!" Kill! ”

With this roar, of course, the army under Xu Shu's command followed directly behind Xu Shu without saying a word, heading towards the heart of Yingchuan.

Although he had been prepared for a long time, he knew that Xu Shu was going to do an earth-shattering thing this time.

But after hearing Xu Shu's order in front of Liu Min and other newcomers, they were still taken aback by this order.

Especially Liu Min, at this moment, he regretted handing over his military power.

"Xu Junshi... Do you really want to kill Yingchuan? ”

"Why not?"

"....." Liu Min now especially wants to ask Xu Shu, where does he think?

Yingchuan! That's Yingchuan, Yuzhou! The people of the Central Plains are outstanding!

Where is the spirit of the earth?

Yingchuan Ling!

To put it mildly, don't look at the fact that most of the Yingchuan disciples have joined the Cao family, but it does not prevent them from having absolute fame in the whole world.

This place... There was a saying in Elfang back then.

Although that sentence is hard to hear, Liu Min thinks it's a good thing, this Yingchuan is shallow and old...

As the land of the Central Plains, it is a lineage of ancient inheritance, I don't know how many families continue here, and this inheritance is relatively the most comprehensive.

In addition, there was once a guy named LΓΌ Buwei here, although he was born in a businessman, but LΓΌ Buwei, who was a model of miscellaneous families, brought the inheritance here into a terrifying place.

The many classics and various schools of knowledge he collected, coupled with the relationship with the old Qin people, allowed Yingchuan to escape the two most terrifying cultural severances.

For a while, after hundreds of years of accumulation, Yingchuan finally ushered in a real outbreak.

Yingchuan Yan faction, Xu Guo Xu family, Yuzhou Fang family, Yanling Yu family, these not too famous families are not ordinary people can compare.

Not to mention the Xun family, the Chen family is already a wealthy family that is difficult to find in the world.

These have also suffered a lot of hardships in Yingchuan, which is also something that cannot be denied, but what was the concept at the beginning?

Back then, the Yellow Turban Army dared to massacre in Yuzhou, which was the Yellow Turban Army composed of hundreds of thousands of rebellious people.

Back then, the Xiliang army dared to slaughter in Yingchuan, and tens of thousands of Xiliang iron horsemen rode here.

It is also after these two things that everyone has a tacit specification, and if you want to move Yingchuan, you have to follow this specification...

Now Xu Shu is going to fight Yingchuan with such three or five thousand people, is this enough people, and the private soldiers hidden by the various families in Yingchuan are all between the two.

After all, when Yingchuan was slaughtered back then, they experienced two party failures and suffered a great loss in strength.

And now everyone has long since recovered...

Xu Shu looked at Liu Min's worried face, and then nodded directly with a chuckle.

"Don't worry, this Yingchuan... It's not immovable! ”

β€œ.... Mr. Yuanzhi, don't be impulsive, in the future, the world will still be governed by His Majesty, if you kill too much, will it be possible for us to learn from that merchant to rule the world as a prisoner? ”

"Hahaha.... Feel relieved... Absolutely not! Xu Shu knew what Liu Min in front of him was worried about.

Back then, there was indeed such an argument under Liu Xie's command.

Because Liu Xie doesn't like the wealthy family very much, and he is also quite harsh on them!

On the other hand, because of Cao's bowing over the years, Chen Qun's proposed method of nine products of righteousness has led to the wealthy family being quite friendly to Cao.

On the contrary, when facing Liu Xie, then....

So someone came up with a solution, or a new one.

That is to directly instigate the people to carve up the fields of the wealthy families.

At the same time, let the tenant farmers in the hands of the wealthy family come to oppose the rule of the family, so that the cholera Central Plains is a place where the wealthy family is deeply rooted.

This strategy was really good at the beginning, I don't know how many people think it is problematic but don't know how to refute it.

In the end, Zhuge Liang, who was in Chang'an, replied directly.

"Twenty years from now!"

Just one sentence makes everyone know what the problem is.

In the twenty years of governance, the population of the people has increased, and the new generation has grown thoroughly.... Who's it?

What will happen after another 20 years of reclaiming the wasteland?

At most, three generations will have no land to divide, but what about this young man?

The war is slowly subsiding, even the army is no longer needed, and a new generation of wealthy families has emerged.

How do people who come after this look at this matter without war?

It's a good idea, but it's not the right time.... At least not yet, until there is a new life to completely replace the farmland...

Liu Min's exhortation made Xu Shu nod slightly, he understood this matter, and he also knew the importance and situation of this Yingchuan.

After all, he is a native of Yingchuan, can he not be familiar with this situation in Yingchuan?

At this time, it is natural that they will not really act stupidly according to such things.

However, Xu Shu also had his own plans, just after the army had just entered Yingchuan, he did not directly set up a position and directly attacked Yingchuan County.

Instead, it directly played a banner.

"Yingchuan Xu Yuanzhi, come to worship Taiqiu Gong, reckless and ignorant in his early years, thank Taiqiu Gong for the people of Yingchuan and open up the wisdom of the people!"

When Xu Shu shouted this slogan, many wealthy families in Yingchuan, who were already ready to fight to the death, suddenly frowned, not knowing what this meant.

As one of the "parties" to this matter, Chen Zhong, the contemporary head of the Yingchuan Chen family, also had a confused look.

I don't know what Xu Shu means by this.

It seems that there is no problem with this banner, after all, there are not one or two people who have visited his grandfather Taiqiu Gong over the years.

It's almost a "sight" already.

So it makes sense to pay a visit to my late grandfather.

But.... What does it mean to come directly with thousands of soldiers and horses to worship your old grandfather?

How.... One person and one stick of incense, are you going to make their old Chen family's incense prosperous?
