Chapter 179: A Sudden War

Cao Cao conquered the "million" Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and got Cheng Yu and other outstanding people to take refuge and help, this period of time can be described as a spring breeze. And because his old friend Zhang Miao also expressed his submission, there is now only one Taishan County left in Yanzhou, and the southern part of Shanyang County is not controlled.

In the southern part of Shanyang County, because of its proximity to Peiguo and other places in Yuzhou, Liao Hua also took advantage of Cao Cao's busy eastern war to occupy several nearby county seats.

In other words, although the current Cao Cao looks at the actual area under his control, although it is a little less than Liu Chong, after all, Runan is a big county. But because Yanzhou is the authentic hinterland of the Central Plains, the population is really not covered, and it is a little more than Liu Chong.

Speaking of which, at this time, Yuzhou and Yanzhou were not much different in population. Cao Cao had a Taishan county that he didn't finish, while Yuzhou had a large county in Yingchuan and small counties such as Peiguo and Luguo. This also means that if both of them really become real state pastors, then Liu Chong and Cao Cao are at least equal in terms of population base, about 2.5 million.

However, Liu Chong's political management seems to be more advanced than Cao Cao's, and Liu Chong's recuperation time is also longer, so in terms of strength, Cao Cao is estimated to suffer.

may also be because he saw this, Cao Cao, who integrated the forces in the western part of Yanzhou, on the one hand, took Yu Ban and others as generals, and set his sights on Taishan County, trying to unify Yanzhou at speed, and at the same time turned back to peek at Liu Chong's "lost territory" Yingchuan.

Although Cao Cao is not a traverser, he is worthy of a generation of strategists, and his strategic vision is so sharp. After the unification of Yanzhou, Cao Cao's target must have been to the east, Xuzhou and Qingzhou. To the north was Yuan Shao, but Cao Cao didn't dare to have any ideas at this time. As a result, Yingchuan, which connects the upper and lower rivers, runs through the Central Plains of the north and south, and has become a place for Cao Cao to fight.

First, this can be used as a bridgehead for Cao Cao to dominate the industry in the future and look up to the south. Take 10,000 steps back, Liu Pet is not a peaceful master, if there is a conflict with Liu Pet, then it is better to leave the war in someone else's place than to have a war on your own territory. Therefore, the best place in this other person is Yingchuan.

At this time, Shanyang people were full of pets, rigorous and careful, and always strategic, and stood up and said: "Lord, in the past, Yuan Highway ordered Liu Xun to dominate Yingchuan, and Chen Wang Liu Chong did not dare to speak, so he helped Chen Ji rebel, according to half of Yingchuan, this is a plan to prevent disaster. Now Yuan Highway has lost Huainan, which is embarrassing. Just as a sharp sword on his head has gone, King Chen and Liu Pet will look around. ”

"Chen Ji has no plan, he is not a person who has been standing for a long time, Liu Xun is a person who has nothing to do, Yuan Highway goes, this person will be frightened. King Chen is facing westward, without resistance, and if he surrenders to Yingchuan, it will not be conducive to the peace of our army in the west. The subordinates are willing to relieve the worries of the lord, only a small child will accompany him, and he will surrender that Chen Ji to the lord, and the lord can get half of Yingchuan without spending a single soldier. The lord will send another general to go, and the incompetent Liu Xun can be defeated in a battle, and Yingchuan can be determined. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed, and then said worriedly: "It's just, if King Chen is angry, what will he do?" ”

Another person came out: "The lord is worry-free, and his subordinates have a plan, which can make King Chen have no time to take care of him." Cao Cao looked at it and saw that it was this person, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

So, there was a scene where Liu Pet met Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun was sent by Cao Cao to deal with Liu Xun, but Cao Cao and Xiahoudun never expected that Liu Pet would come so quickly.

Liu Pet quickly withdrew from the battle, but Xiahoudun didn't dare to chase, not only did he not dare to chase, but he was also a little glad that Liu Pet walked fast, otherwise he really didn't know what the result was. At the same time, Xiahoudun was furious again: "Chen Jipifu, there are cavalry not coming, and the cowardice is outrageous. ”

At this time, if Xiahoudun had more than one or twenty people in his hands, he was confident that he would keep Liu Pet. However, because of Chen Ji's timidity, he didn't dare to take the lead with a small cavalry, instead of waiting for a large army of infantry to come together.

After Xiahoudun finished scolding, his calm eyes were cold. It seems that Man Boning still failed, Chen Ji is not so obedient, otherwise with Man Boning's knowledge, he would not have done such a stupid thing.

Chen Ji, you can't be left behind.

Liu Pet ran all the way, especially when he looked back and saw that there was no one missing, he did not hesitate in his heart, and shouted in his heart Luck. Damn, I knew that I was blocking Xiahoudun, and let Dian Wei pounce on the small soldier next to him, with Dian Wei's ability, the two halberds could get one, and Xiahoudun had to die of heartache.

I want to think about it, but Xiahoudun appeared here, and it seems that Chen Ji probably surrendered to Cao Cao "can't figure it out", which is really shocking.

"Jia Wenhe, Jia Wenhe, you have failed again." Liu Pet couldn't help but shout, Chen Ji surrendered to Cao Cao, such a big thing, Jia Xu actually didn't have any news at all, it really shouldn't be.

Liu Pet actually wronged Jia Xu, one, Man Pet said that Chen Ji was surrendered, just one day, even now, Xiahou Ton and Man Pet did not form control over Chen Ji. Second, a major event happened in the south, a major event that Jia Xu had to go all out.

"Hurry, Dian Jun, we want to hurry, hurry back to Yangxia, damn, Cao Cao has entered Yingchuan, this is a declaration of war, this is a provocation."

Liu Pet couldn't help shouting, one day running wildly, when he entered the territory of Chen State, Liu Pet pointed to a guard: "Sixth son, you take my token, part ways with me here, you hurry to Changping County, all the way to Chen County, all the county seats, all martial law, enter the state of battle, notify the county order and the county lieutenant, if there are unknown soldiers appear, they are not allowed to fight, holding the city is a great achievement, if you go out of the city, meritorious service is also a crime." ”

Liu Pet wanted to go to the base camp Yangxia, but he was afraid that Xiahoudun and Chen Ji would follow him after his buttocks, and if he accidentally stole one or two county seats, he would really die unjustly.

Sixth Son: "Yes, King Chen." ”

Liu Pet: "After returning to Chen County, quickly order the military division to come to Yangxia, and at the same time tell the Minister of State, let him pass on the order to Lord Lu Fan of Liang State, be careful of Jiyin County, Cao Mengde, this kid hacks us." ”

Sixth Son: "Yes, King Chen." ”

Liu Pet thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "It's time to pass on my order and let the Iron Mask General come to Yangxia." ”

The sixth son was stunned: "Yes, King Chen." Then he thought about it and asked again: "King Chen, what do you mean by blacking us?" ”

Liu Pet was furious: "Go." ”

The six sons were shocked, hurriedly pulled the horse and left, and then on the horseback puzzled, what did we mean by black.

Liu Pet scolded the six sons, turned the horse's head and went to Yangxia, on the way, Dian Wei also tilted his head: "Lord, I don't know what it means to black us." ”

Liu Pet's eyes were black and he almost fell off the horse.

"Black us is the meaning of yin us, that is, the meaning of the treacherous villain."

What made Liu Pet speechless was that the guards next to him also suddenly realized at the same time: "Oh." The sound made Liu Pet depressed.

Liu Pet rushed back to Yangxia, and also frightened Li Dian and Gan Ning, the two generals who guarded Yangxia, but after hearing the news of Xiahoudun, the two were ready to move at the same time.

Liu Pet smiled, happy in his heart, good, good, it is rare for the military heart to be available.

"Ganning." Gan Ning was overjoyed, but he didn't expect Liu Pet to call his first name.

"I ordered you to lead 1,500 troops as the vanguard, go straight to Xinji, build bridges when encountering water, and open roads in the mountains. If there is already a garrison in the city, maybe you will meet Chen Ji and Xiahoudun's army, don't fight, wait for our Chinese army. ”

Gan Ning was overjoyed: "If." ”

"Li Dian."

Li Dian: "Yes." Li Dian has been living in Yangxia for a year or two, watching Gao Shun go east and west, although he didn't say anything, he always felt itchy all over his body. At this time, the appearance of the coming war, and it was based in Yangxia, Li Dian, a kind-hearted army elder, couldn't help but be a little excited.

"Quickly report back to Yangxia's situation?"

"Yes, my lord. Back to the lord, my Yangxia original lord diligently practiced an army of 8,000, and then the lord ordered Yingchuan Fancheng to be revoked, General Gan brought 3,000 elite soldiers, and now Yangxia has a total of 11,000 troops. There were one hundred and eight horsemen on horseback, and the armor was complete. The grain and grass in the city are replenished once a month, and now it has been twelve days since the last supply from Chen County, and now the grain and grass in the city can be used for eighteen days in peacetime for the army, and it can only be maintained for ten days in wartime. ”

Liu Pet nodded, there are soldiers and horses in Yangxia, and of course there is not much food to give, so it is generally sent from Chen County every month.

"Okay, immediately give an order to let Chen County quickly transport grain, which can be used for at least a month for the army to fight. Ordered Runan to rush to work overnight and quickly deliver 100,000 arrows. Order, from now on, all the news and situation about Yanzhou and Yingchuan will be sent to our army's account. ”

Li Dian: "If." ”

Liu Pet: "General Li, as soon as the military division arrives, you will fight with me in Yingchuan, and General Li will dare to fight." ”

Li Dian: "My subordinates are willing to fight to the death." ”

Liu Pet nodded, and then turned to the person behind Li Dian: "Ding Yang." ”

Ding Yang is the original captain of Liang Guo who surrendered, and he has been conscientious and conscientious all these years. Ding Yang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Liu Pet to remember his name, and immediately corrected: "Yes." ”

"Let you be the general of Yangxia, leave you a thousand soldiers and horses, and put the soldiers of Yangxia County under your command. Our army is sent to Yingchuan, Yangxia is an important strategic place, and the rear army is heavy and grain and grass, starting from here together, do you dare to ensure the smooth logistics of our army? ”

Ding Yang was shocked, this is a rush to be promoted. Hurriedly knelt down excitedly: "Back to the lord, my subordinates are willing to make a military order." ”

Liu Pet smiled, stepped forward to pat Ding Yang's shoulder, and said with a smile in an ordinary tone: "Ding Yang, I believe in you, I have always seen your performance in my heart in the past two years, and General Li Dian has also praised you many times." ”

Ding Yang was shocked, turned around and looked at Li Dian with a grateful face, Li Dian smiled and nodded.

Left a thousand, Liu Pet dispatched an army of 10,000, and when he moved, it was boundless.

Liu Pet: "This time, there is no need to fall into the camp, there are Spartans and this army of 10,000, it is enough." "You must know that Liu Pet's army is not like others, together with the logistics soldiers. In Liu Chong's concept, only killing people is a soldier, and other logistics are not counted.

Therefore, Liu Chong himself said that he sent 10,000 troops, and if he put it with others, it would be tens of thousands of troops. Because, to ensure the battle of 10,000 people, the logistics of the people, is definitely several times that of 10,000 people.

Moreover, Liu Chong's soldiers are much more professional and elite than those in other places. This is the reason why Chen Guo has not had a large number of soldiers and horses, Liu Pet, what he pursues is quality.

Looking up at the north, Liu Pet couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, Cao Mengde, come on, are we going to start between us.
