"Bastard, this Zhang Xiu is simply not a human being!" After Xiahou Yuan got the news of Zhang Xiu's withdrawal, he was furious and almost lifted the table in front of him!

"The general has temporarily suppressed the wrath of thunder, and the main thing now is to think about how we should face Yuan Jun next!"

"Facing Yuan Jun? Who told you that? Xiahou Yuan sneered, "Let the army prepare to attack, if the Yuan army comes to the autumn harvest, then kill me fiercely!" ”

"Yes, General!" The adjutant general hurriedly said, drenched in cold sweat, I don't know what his master is thinking!

Five days later, Man Pet led the remaining more than 30,000 people to arrive late, and after the two met, they began to cut wheat, sweeping the wheat fields outside Luoyang Pass. Xin Ping and the others in the pass only took the opportunity to grab a lot of grain to go back, of course, Xiahou Yuan couldn't get the food in the pass, and the two sides didn't have too much confrontation, the main reason was because Han Sui and Ma Tie led 100,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry out of Chang'an and went straight to Luoyang Pass, wanting to grab food from Xiahou Yuan and Xin Ping!

"Damn!" Xin Ping was furious, the joy of snatching food from Xiahou Yuan just now was gone, it was uncomfortable enough to defend Tiger Prison Pass by himself, but now the Liangzhou Army is doing things in Hangu Pass in the west, which makes him even more uncomfortable!

"Sir, don't worry, now Xiahou Yuan is just near Hangu Pass, and most of the grain in Gyeonggi has fallen into the hands of Cao Jun, I think the target of the Liangzhou Army is Xiahou Yuan, not our Luoyang City, not to mention that we still have two major passes, Hangu Pass and Tiger Prison Pass!" Ju Yi said

"The general has a point! There are two major passes, which can reach 300,000 elite soldiers! Han Meng also spoke, before Tong Guan and Gao Ran arrived, this group of generals was determined to defend and watch Cao Jun and Liangzhou arms merge!

"It's only like this, it's just that such a big battle is in front of us, but we can only watch, it's really tormenting!" Xin Ping said indignantly, in his heart, he has always wanted to be a trendsetter of the times, if he waits so boringly, it will really be a waste of time!

No matter what Yuan Shao's group of generals think, now Xiahou Yuan is face is confused, why did hundreds of thousands of Xiliang iron horsemen suddenly appear, he has just gained a firm foothold, and before he can dry the grain, he came to grab something, or a group of bandits!

"Mr. Man, how is this good?" Xiahou Yuan looked at Man Zhong helplessly and asked

"This?" Full of pets smiled bitterly, there was nothing to do, this awakening, there were suddenly 150,000 well-equipped cavalry on the opposite side, so that no one was stunned!

"My lord, there are no soldiers and horses to give us, General Xiahou, everything here will be handed over to you!" Full of pets

"Me! This is too special! Xiahou Yuan said angrily, he has the right to deal with everything, but someone has to tell him what to do now, Miaocai also feels a little bad at this time!

"General, don't shake it anymore, let's go and find out the intention of the Xiliang Army first. If it's for Luoyang City, then we'll withdraw our troops, if it's for food, we can only defend or fight, after all, we can't outrun their four legs! Seeing Xiahou Yuan spinning in a strong circle, Man Pet couldn't help but speak, because if Xiahou Yuan turned again, he would faint!

"Cao Hong! You go! Check it out for me! ”

"Yes! Checkmate! ”

The eastern capital of Luoyang is already lively, but the most lively should be Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu made a great deal of might, raised troops to capture half of Xuzhou, went north to break Cao Cao twice and Runan County, took the opportunity to go north for 300 miles, captured a large amount of land, Yuan Shu is also a thoughtful person, knowing that these places are not in danger to defend, just take away the food and people, leaving a large area of ruins for Boss Cao, and then send troops in a big way, the south and the north war, the West Route Army raided and killed under Xinye City, almost captured Xinye, if it was not for Wenpin to guard, Liu Jingzhou was about to cry, and at the same time, Yuan Shu also sent troops out of Shouchun, went south to the Yangtze River, all the way like a bamboo, directly cut off Sun Jian's connection on the Yangtze River, and forcibly divided Sun Jian's territory into two, forcing Sun Jian to pay tribute to Yuan Shu, because although Sun Jian had many generals, he did not have much grain and grass, and he fought with Liu Biao for many years, and this farming was even more wasted!

"My lord! Now we have 500,000 elite soldiers, spanning Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, and Jingzhou, plus Sun Jian in the south, it can be said that the power is the largest among all the princes! Ji Ling grinned and said, now looking at the strength on paper, Yuan Shu can be said to be the strongest, coupled with the support of the Yuan family, it is really expected to win the entire Xuzhou and Jingzhou!

"Hmmm! We are now rich all over the world, and the autumn harvest has been completed, so I decided to raise 200,000 troops and take Xuzhou directly! Yuan Shu said in high spirits

"Ji Ling is the general, the vanguard of 30,000 people set off, Zhang Xun is the commander, and the army will go with me! In addition, Sun Jian was transferred to attack Jiangxia! Yuan Shu said

"This? I wonder if Sun Jian will send troops? Yan Xiang asked

"It doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't affect our attack on Xuzhou, when we come back, the army will take Jianye directly, take Wu County and Huiji County first, and we will no longer be afraid of him Sun Jian!" Yuan Shu said with a smile, the family of the world is one family, and his Yuan family is the one who holds the bull's ear, the family of Wu Di has already sent someone to communicate with their Yuan family, but he has not taken Xuzhou on his side, so it is inconvenient to enter Yangzhou!

"Yes! Lord! Yuan Shu's subordinates spoke. Now they are more and more confident, their own lord is the same as a changed person, and they are more and more reassuring, it is really the art of war and the omnipotence of Tao!

Sun Jian received a letter from Yuan Shu, people had to bow their heads under the eaves, plus he himself wanted to attack Jiangxia to avenge Zu Mao, in fact, no one knew, Zu Mao was a twin brother, but both brothers died for themselves, he felt that he couldn't stand their brothers, and now he had the opportunity to avenge them, with the support of Yuan Shu's 50,000 loads of grain and grass, Sun Jian raised 30,000 troops and went straight to Jiangxia, leaving his young son Sun Quan and others in Chaisang, and letting them manage internal affairs, and now he also understands the importance of reclaiming wasteland, If you develop steadily from the beginning and lay a good foundation first, you don't need to exchange the jade seal of the country for Yuan Shu's ministers! Sun Jian's army was killed, Huang Zu was still defending as always, and the two sides were still attacking back and forth, and they were facing each other!

Liu Bei got the news of Yuan Shu's army, he didn't dare to be the slightest slack, and hurriedly raised 50,000 troops, and took his second brother Guan Yu to meet him, Liu Bei didn't dare to let Yuan Shu's army besiege the city, because he also knew that he was not good in Xuzhou now, and he didn't know who spread the news that he poisoned Tao Qian, which made the people of Xuzhou panic!

The two armies fought, there was no nonsense, Ji Ling and Guan Yu were also old rivals, they didn't talk much nonsense when they met, they transferred troops to each other, and on the first day, they fought five or five times, and both sides were damaged, so it was over. The next day, Guan Yu took the lead in sending troops, pressed the formation with heavy troops, and shouted Ji Ling to fight generals, Ji Ling had already gone out, but was shouted back by Yuan Shu Mingjin, and then Yuan Shu sat in the Chinese army and ordered the whole army to attack, which caught Guan Yu off guard, and Liu Bei had to retreat with the army. That night, Liu Bei Guan Yu personally led the troops to rob the camp and burn Yuan Shu's army, Yuan Shu was defeated, retreated thirty miles and set up camp, and the two armies entered a period of confrontation!

Sun Jian's siege this time is the main, and slowly into winter, the north wind does not see the south wind for a long time, it is very unfavorable for Sun Jian's battle, after holding each other for more than ten days, and he is afraid that Huang Zhong will sneak attack the back road, so he came up with the idea of retreating, but he is the main attacker this time, if he is so sloppy and feels anticlimactic, it is really painful!

"Lord, Zhou Yu's letter!" Just when Sun Jian was hesitating, the pioneer Huang Gai came in!

"Oh? Gongjin has news? "Sun Jian is overjoyed, for Zhou Yu, Sun Jian and Sun Ce are unconditional trust, although this baby is not big now, but the ability is there!

"That's a brilliant plan!" After reading Zhou Yu's letter, Sun Jian was very happy, "Pass the order to the whole army, and withdraw to Chaisang after the army!" ”

"My lord?" Huang Gai didn't understand, did he waste money and food again this time?

"Don't leak it!" Sun Jian smiled mysteriously, and then ordered the army, and rushed to Chaisang in the starry night, when he came, it was a headwind, and the speed of the Jiangdong army was not very fast, so it was much faster to go back, and the five-day trip was just three days to run back.

When Sun Jian returned to Chaisang, Yuan Shu's grain and grass had just been delivered, and as Zhou Yu expected, there was still a shortage of catties and two, and the angry Sun Jian scolded Yuan Shu for not growing up and having no sincerity! Zhou Yu smiled and withheld all the grain and grass, then put the soldier back, and asked the grain delivery officer to bring a message to Yuan Shu, hoping to get enough food next time!

"It's really annoying to me!" Sun Jian was furious, he remembered that when he attacked the Tiger Prison Pass, it was also this Yuan Shu who did not give him food and grass, which led to his failure and gave up his great credit in vain!

"Don't be angry, this matter is repeated again and again! Yuan Shu did this just to give us an excuse to raise troops! Yuan Shu is rich and wealthy, and has the idea of being the emperor, if we continue to stand in line with him and wait until he becomes the emperor, we will be anti-thieves, which is not conducive to the great cause! If we raise troops to attack Yuan Shu in advance, it will be to serve the imperial court, not only is there no crime, but there is a great merit, fame and fortune! Zhou Yu said with a smile, these words made everyone nod for a while, and they recognized Zhou Yu even more!

"Father, what Gong Jin said is very true, but now Yuan Shu is powerful, and it is not something that my Jiangdong family can deal with, and I ask my father to make up his mind in advance, first control the Yangtze River, and destroy Yuan Shu's army!" Sun Ce said, he is very strategic, he looks at problems and everything very tricky, and understands his Jiangdong's shortcomings, so he has this proposal!

The Jiangdong region is rich in products and has many scholars, and now it is nominally under the rule of the Sun family, but how much this rule is, this group of people is very clear, otherwise Sun Jian would not have taken the jade seal of the country to exchange food with Yuan Shu. The biggest feature of Jiangdong is that it is more than self-preservation and insufficient attack, which is also the reason why Jiangdong is so stubborn in attacking Hefei and capturing Jingzhou in history, this is the only place where they can send troops!

"Destroying the Yuan Shu Naval Army is only the first step, the next step is to capture Yuan Shu's territory, only in this way can we open up a route, once Cao Cao's territory changes, we can surprise Xuchang and welcome back the Han Emperor!" Zhou Yu said

"Good strategy! It's just how to attack Yuan Shu? Cheng Pu said excitedly

"If the sky wants to make people die, it must first make people crazy, Yuan Shu is now powerful in the world, and the jade seal of the country is in hand, and he will soon be called the emperor! When he became emperor, it was time for us to do it! It's going to be cold soon, which is not conducive to water warfare, so you can take the opportunity to isolate Yuan Shu's water army and destroy them! Zhou Yu said murderously

"Good! Cheng Pu Huang Gai! You always pay attention to the movement in the river, and if you have the opportunity, you will kill Yuan Shu's water army first, as long as there is no water army, Yuan Shu will have nothing to do with us! Sun Jian said

"No!" After the two received the order, they each transferred their troops!

Xuchang, also known as Xu Du, Boss Cao's base camp, now Boss Cao is frowning, holding Xiahou Yuan's letter in his hand, and his heart is turbulent!

"I didn't expect Xiliang Ma Teng to come and join in the fun!" Cao Cao smiled bitterly

"Xiliang's arrogant soldiers are all a group of outlaws, and Han Sui is a lively person, but it is not easy to deal with, just like this sudden capture of Chang'an, it is also unexpected!" Xi Zhicai spoke

"General Xiahou Yuan has less than 40,000 horses, and he is indeed under a lot of pressure, this is about to enter winter, and it is not suitable for combat!" Xun Yu said worriedly

"Miaocai has a lively mind, but he has a short temperament, I'm afraid this point will be infinitely amplified by Han Sui, and then defeat him!" Xiahou said,

"Then I'll write a letter to Xiahou Yuan!" Cao Cao said with a smile, he was very confident in his clan brother Xiahou Yuan, after all, he had fought with Chengfeng Zhao Yunfa several times, and Xiahou Yuan's way of training cavalry and combat style were also influenced by these two people!

"Don't work for the prime minister, Xiahou Yuan's purpose for this expedition is clear, the soldiers are all elite divisions, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is not conducive to combat in winter, as long as General Xiahou operates properly, it can be foolproof, the most important thing now is to send a general to send troops and do a good job in logistics!" Liu Ye said

"Not bad! Ma Tie is all cavalry, the speed is fast, and the supply line of our army's combat logistics is too long, so it is not easy to defend! "Xiahou said!

"You don't have to worry about logistics supplies, Miao Cai said in the letter that he has already got all the food outside the two passes, and Zhang Yan's materials in Bingzhou are also in the army, which is enough to deal with half a year, this winter is coming, and the Xiliang army can't destroy the grain! However, there is one thing that we need to pay attention to, that is, the strength of troops, 40,000 against 150,000, is indeed difficult to fight, especially against cavalry, so Xiahou Yuan asked us to send reinforcements to deter Yuan Shao's Luoyang! Cao Cao said

"General Xiahou Yuan's original intention of sending troops this time was to raid Luoyang, and now that he has received supplies, why not withdraw?" Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Angdao

"Hehe, the young general doesn't know, this Xiliang is all cavalry, if we retreat, it will be a chance to chase and kill, and I'm afraid none of our 40,000 people will come back! General Xiahou Yuan has already defused the advantage of the cavalry, and the siege of the Xiliang soldiers has no successful experience! Xun Yu said

"Taught!" Cao Ang arched his hand

"This reinforcement, I will go out in person!" Cao Cao said

"This! Slow down! Now the battle situation in Xuzhou is scorching, we are confronting Yuan Shao, and the sudden dispatch of troops at this time may make Yuan Shao misunderstand that we are attacking Luoyang, and it will not be easy to control it when the time comes to cause a full-scale operation! Xun Yu said, now it is finally a favorable situation, if you fight with Xiliang, it will be overstretched!

"Yuan Benchu won't make a move, there is still a tiger on his side! This time, I sent troops from Wancheng to see how Zhang Xiu was defeated, and the war horses of Wancheng can also be collected by this opportunity! Cao Cao said with a smile

"The prime minister is wise!" Cheng Yu said, "It's just that I don't know how many soldiers the prime minister plans to bring this time?" ”

Cheng Yu's words made everyone frown, and there was a little bit of coercion on Zhang Xiu, I am afraid that there will be changes, if there is less, it will not help the battle situation!

"It doesn't take too much, just five thousand centaurs!" Xiahou said, "I'll accompany the prime minister!" ”

"Not necessarily! You're still in charge here! I'll take An Minzi over for a long time, and Dian Wei can lead 3,000 troops to follow! Cao Cao said with a smile, he has high hopes for his eldest son, as for his nephew Cao Anmin, it is purely because this goods understands his own mind, and some things can be handed over to him to take care of!

"Isn't it a little less, take Xu Chu with you!" Xiahou said

"This time it's not a battle-oriented, Luoyang's Yuan army won't go out of the city to fight, it's considered to be an experience, it's enough to bring them, we also need to guard against Yuan Shu as a demon, so the base camp Xuchang can't afford to lose, Xu Chu Yuban and others have to stay! In addition, you must pay attention to Lu Bu's dynamics, he has been silent for a long time, not to be underestimated! Cao Cao said with a smile

"No!" A few humanitarians,

Boss Cao has the absolute right to speak in his own group, and once he decides, it is leveraged! It's just that the plan can't catch up with the rapid change, Cao Cao didn't wait to leave, and suddenly received the news that Lu Bu sent troops, and still attacked his hometown Chen Liu, this news was sent by Cao Ren, and Lu Bu was full of offensive power, Cao Ren's subordinates Li Dianle entered the two, and the three of them were not enough for Lu Bu to fight, and Yuan Shao also suddenly sent troops at the critical moment, and there was a big attack on Guandu, which made Lu Bu have some scruples and retreated to Puyang, but the crisis of Chen Liu was still not resolved!

"Report! Prime Minister, Liu Beijun fought fiercely with Yuan Shu in Xuzhou, and finally lost the enemy and retreated to Xuzhou, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu formed an alliance and ravaged Qingzhou, Xuzhou! "Yu Ban's battle report is also here

"Liu Biao sent troops to Xinye and fought with Yuan Shujun in Runan, and the two sides injured each other, forcing Yuan Shu to rescue in order to relieve Liu Bei's pressure!" It's another battle report, Cao Cao was dumbfounded, is this still the winter that is not conducive to combat, is this year's winter extraordinarily warm?
