After taking the state governor's mansion, Xu Ding asked the soldiers to count the money and grain in the government treasury, and then asked people to post notices to distribute food to the people inside and outside the city, and sent all Liu Bei's military rations out.

By the way, in the process, I secretly transferred the money to Tianluodi.com to receive and transfer it.

With this huge amount of funds, the activities of Tianluodi are more fully funded and more convenient to develop.

"Report to the lord, Liu Beiyi has withdrawn from Dai County to Yanmen County, and is leading the army south, and now he has arrived in Yangqu City."

"Report to the lord, Li Su's army has withdrawn from Jizhou and merged with the state, and has now arrived in Shangai!"

Xu nodded fixed-point, and then let them be in the newspaper.

Liu Bei and Li Su are still quite far away, and they can play for a few more days, which makes the surrounding cities and counties nervous and tense for a few days.

It took another two days for Liu Bei's army to return to Jinyang City, at this time Xu Ding's money and food were scattered for Liu Bei, and when he saw Liu Bei who had come back, he said: "Liu Bei, for the people of Jinyang City, for this ancient city to be devastated by war, Ben Hou will be temporarily placed here for the time being, and you will take good care of Ben Hou, if something goes wrong in Jinyang City, I will definitely want you to die." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Liu Bei to reply, Xu Ding took a thousand horses from the south gate and went out to Yuci.

Liu Bei's face was purple and purple, and he convulsed non-stop.

What does it mean to leave it with me temporarily, this is originally mine.

After entering the city and hearing about what Xu Ding had done, Liu Bei was so depressed that he almost fainted in the snow.

My money!

My bread!

"Xu Ding thief, I will never die with you!" Liu Bei looked south and swore through gritted teeth.

However, he did not send troops south, and he really didn't know how many soldiers and horses Xu Ding brought with him.

Li Su's army also rushed back to Yuci City belatedly, but he was luckier than Liu Bei, because Xu Ding didn't wait for him, didn't scold him, and only left a fart. The ashes were given to him, and he went south to Yangyi City.

In the end, 3,000 people gathered in Qiyangyi City and entered the Shangdang.

In Shangdang County, there are not many soldiers and horses, and the main soldiers will be placed in Huguan and Fucheng Changzi City.

Li Sudong entered Jizhou, and many soldiers and horses from the state were transferred, so there were no decent soldiers and horses in the north of Shangdang, and naturally no one, no city, no county, dared to block the Donglai army.

Everything that passes through surrenders and welcomes.

It was not until the city of Tunliu was closed that the city was closed.

Xu Ding did not attack, but stopped, waiting for the secret son of the party's heaven and earth network to contact him.

After nightfall, someone really came to the camp to find Xu Ding.

Xu Ding asked, "What is the situation in the city?" ”

"Back to the lord, there are 5,000 enemy soldiers in the city, and the defender will be Li Su's henchman Li You, Li You is a member of the Li Su clan, and I heard that the lord is going south with his troops, so he dispatched soldiers and horses from various cities to stop the lord here." Someone came and brought the information one by one.

Xu Ding realized that he was Li Su's clansman.

No wonder he dared to block himself, Xu Ding asked about the situation in other parts of the party.

The person who came told Xu Ding that Li You did not dare to stop Xu Ding, after all, Li Su asked Li You to guard the party in order to guard against Zhang Yang in Hanoi.

Afraid that Zhang Yang would attack his eldest son from the Hyun clan.

As a result, something went wrong in Hanoi.

Zhang Yang was indeed preparing to sneak attack Shangdang and take the city of the eldest son.

The soldiers and horses were all pulled into the high capital city of Shangdang, but the senior cadres entered Hanoi with the remnants, and took the opportunity to seize the city to develop the soldiers and horses, wanting to seek Hanoi.

Fortunately, Dong Zhao and others, who guarded the wild king, stuck to the city, so they were not attacked by the senior cadres.

Zhang Yang was so frightened that he immediately rushed back to Hanoi with his troops, and a battle broke out with Gao Gan in Hanoi.

"Ahem! This...... What unfortunate news. Xu Ding showed a sympathetic smile on his face.

Without it, because Gao Gan was knocked away for his reasons.

This must be the fire at the city gate and the fish pond.

However, Guo Jia and the others did not receive any news about where Gao Gan fled at that time, and now they finally understand.

Gao Gan, Cui Lin and others originally ran into Hanoi, and after lurking in Hanoi, they made waves.

"Lord, if you want to take Shangdang County, then it is feasible to fight Tunliu City, if the lord just borrows the road back to Jizhou, then there is no need to die here, we know how to avoid Tunliu and kill Huguan." The messenger suggested.

Xu Dingdao: "This time I didn't come to occupy the city, it would be great if I could lay it down, if I couldn't bypass it, it wouldn't hurt, I think Huguan is good, it's better to take this place first, and you can contact someone to take us over." ”

"It's the lord!"

With the assistance of Tianluo Net, Xu Ding and the others bypassed Tunliu like a familiar car, and then killed Huguan.

Huguan Shou will be a bandit leader from Taihang Mountain, since he didn't expect to be able to kill a soldier and horse from behind, and was captured by Xu Ding in one fell swoop.

took the Huguan, this time Xu Ding did not leave, but sent someone east to inform Yecheng's frustration.

Let him send his foot men.

Huguan, Xu Ding didn't plan to give it to Liu Bei and Li Su.

This is the only way to enter the party from Jizhou.

If you master this place, you can attack the party at any time, so that Liu Bei and Li Su will not be able to sleep and eat.

At the same time, it is also to protect Jizhou from the attacks of Liu Bei and Li Su, and seize the initiative in his hands.

Li Su chased him to Tunliu and found that Xu Ding had captured Huguan and had not left, and he probably understood what Xu Ding meant.

couldn't help but scold Li You for being incompetent.

Li You was a little aggrieved after being scolded: "Military advisor, why don't you take advantage of Xu Ding's lack of soldiers and horses to storm and recapture Huguan." ”

Li Su was so angry when he heard this, he stomped his feet and scolded: "Stupid, now that Xu Ding has occupied the kettle, you think you can take it back so easily."

He is a god rider, and he can rush out and fly our army, killing you without a single piece of armor.

Even if it is defending the city, his 3,000 repeater crossbows can shoot the attacking troops into a sieve, whether your body is hard or his crossbow arrows are hard, do you want to wipe it. ”

Li Su had no confidence at all to lay down the pot pass that was personally guarded by Xu Ding.

"Then what now, do we just let Xu Ding's knife stand on our necks?" Li Youdao:

"This is the old cat pillow salted fish!"

"What should I do, what else can I do, draw all the soldiers and horses in the eldest son city, build a tunliu defense system from now on, give up the southern part of Shangdang, and never stain the guide department unless one day I recapture Huguan." Li Su threw off his sleeves angrily and left, this day's broken things really made people feel haggard.

Running into Xu Ding always made him depressed, as if this guy would always be like a mountain in the way, and he would never be able to cross it.

………………

Koto!

Jiujiang County, Yangzhou!

Sun Ce's army was divided into two routes, one was led by Zhou Yu, and led the water army down the Huai River to attack the Pi State.

Zhou Yu's navy was huge in number, gathering 30,000 people, and there were countless ships of all sizes pouring down.

After a fierce attack, Huailing, Xuxian, Xutai, and Suiling were taken one after another.

Then continue to advance downstream to Huaiyin.

Sun Ce led 20,000 foot soldiers from the east of Jiujiang to the south, directly killed Guangling City, and successively captured Tangyi, Yuguo and Guangling City.

Zhao Yu, the Taishou of Guangling, mobilized soldiers and horses from various counties to actively defend the city, and got in touch with Lü Chang, who was stationed in Jiangdu, to jointly deal with the Sun family who went south.

Because on this side of the river, the Sun family did not have many ships, and their own defense was insufficient, and there were warships in Jingzhou to confront Liu Biao, so they naturally did not have the ability to go south to invade Jiangdu and Dantu.

In this way, Lu Chang also has the energy to support Guangling City.

Sun Cebing besieged Guangling City and directly sent an envoy to demand that Zhao Yu surrender and sacrifice the city.

The one who entered the city to persuade him to surrender was Sun Ce's subordinate Lu Fan, who had traveled in Xuzhou and had an acquaintance with Zhao Yu.

So after he entered the city, he said to Zhao Yu: "Yuanda, my lord is aiming at Guangling and Xuzhou, and now the troops are divided into two ways to the east, Xuzhou has no troops to stop, and it will soon fall, you have no point in guarding Guangling, why don't you surrender to my lord first for the people in the city, so as not to suffer from the war in Guangling." ”

"In vain? If you didn't come to attack Guangling, where did the war come from, where did the people suffer casualties, but our two armies were originally friendly countries, but they attacked unjustly first, and I am ashamed of you. Zhao Yu flicked the sleeves of his robe and said:

"Besides, how can I have no troops to stop Xuzhou, how can I fall, so you can think about it, and continue to attack, I'm afraid it will be you who will be in great trouble. I Weihai Hou has many soldiers and horses, especially the strong navy, invincible in the world, if you don't return to Yangzhou Jiujiang, don't blame us for being ruthless when the time comes. ”

"Yuanda doesn't need to be rash, saying this kind of angry words, Weihai Hou's subordinates are indeed many generals and have enough soldiers, but now they are caught in the war between Jizhou and Youzhou.

This time, not only did I Yangzhou soldiers and horses attack you, but also Yuan Shao of Yuzhou, and Liu Bei of Bingzhou, the major princes of the eastern part of the Kwantung region all sent troops, and the Marquis of Weihai transferred the elite of the south to the north, and now there is no time to look south, not to mention Xuzhou, even Qingzhou and Taizhou are also in danger. Lu Fan said:

"The reason why I entered the city is not that our army can't capture Guangling City, but because I really don't want Yuanda you and Guangling City to be destroyed. Hopefully, you will make the right choice. ”

Lu Fan solemnly snorted, but Zhao Yu didn't suffer it at all, but turned his back to him and snorted coldly: "Come on, send off, Lu Ziheng went back and told Sun Ce, if you have the ability, you will attack, although I Zhao Yu is not a military attaché, but I also flow the same blood as Hou Ye and the generals, we firmly believe that Hou Ye is undefeated, I Xuzhou, you can't fight, and you can't give in." ”

Lu Fan shook his head slightly, this Zhao Yu is still the original bull temper, and he has not changed at all.

In the past, when Tao Qian was the pastor of Xuzhou, he asked him to come out to be an official, but this guy refused because he didn't like Tao Qian.

Tao Qian ordered someone to hang him up and beat him to humiliate him, but fortunately, Wang Lang and others persuaded him to avoid this humiliation, and finally became the Taishou of Guangling.

When he came, he knew how to convince him.

Therefore, he did not plan to continue, but resigned from the government office, and then constantly observed the situation of the defenders in the city along the way, in order to obtain the most critical information and provide reference and help for Sun Ce to break the city.

This is the purpose of his real entry into the city.

Watching Lu Fan leave, a small figure on the head of the city, shaking a small fan, smiled slightly, and then said to the person behind him: "Inform Zhao Taishou that we can rearrange the soldiers and horses, take out all the good things, and wait to entertain Sun Ce." ”

Seeing Lu Fan coming back, Sun Ce hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" Did Zhao Yu promise to surrender? ”

Lu Fan shook his head and said, "Back to the lord, Zhao Gongda is unwilling to surrender." ”

"Damn! He dared not to surrender, did he really think that I would not be able to capture Guangling City? "Sun Ce's temper has always been relatively straight, and it is also a fire when he hears the rumors, just Zhao Yu and Guangling, do you really think that Xuzhou has returned to Xu Ding, and your combat effectiveness is very strong?

Xuzhou is still that Xuzhou, Guangling is still that Guangling, you Zhao Yu is still the original Zhao Yu.

"Lord, although Zhao Gongda did not descend, but this time when he entered the city, Fan Dao found a lot of problems in Guangling." Lu Fan did not crux Zhao Yu's own problem, but opened his mouth to mention:

"Zhao Yu didn't have many soldiers and horses in the city, I only had three or four thousand more men and horses in the city, and they were extremely panicked, and the materials to deal with the counterattack were also insufficient, so Guangling City didn't expect that there would be a war at all."

"Oh! That's it! Sun Ce suddenly became interested and hurriedly asked: "You have observed so carefully when you enter the city, then you should also pay attention to the arrangement of their soldiers and horses, and tell me about it." ”

Lu Fan then talked about every bit after entering the city, and put his own analysis and opinions.

That night, Sun Ce led an army to attack Guangling City.

However, he was quickly repelled by a dense counterattack, leaving behind corpses and returning to the barracks in despair.

"Ziheng, didn't you say that Zhao Yu didn't have many soldiers and horses?" As soon as Sun Ce came back, he asked Lu Fan.

The tone was a little reproachful, the other party was obviously prepared tonight, not to mention the four gates, that is, there were no less than three thousand soldiers and horses in the west gate alone, the arrows were dense and swift like rain, and the generals commanded in the city were far beyond the ability of the county captain.

Lu Fan was also a little confused, the situation he saw during the day, the city was indeed very weak, and this could not be faked.

The soldiers and generals were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and in an instant, something suddenly burst out in Lu Fan's mind, so he said: "Lord, maybe there are masters around Zhao Yu, what I saw was a false image, someone deliberately led me to the bait, it was Fan who underestimated Zhao Yu with some consideration." ”

Zhao Yu is straightforward, he has never deceived people, and he can't do this kind of tricking trap.

Sun Ce said: "Then what to do now, the soldiers and horses in the city are far beyond our imagination, although they are not all elite, but it is still quite tricky for defending the city." ”

Chen Duandao, who was on the side, said: "Lord, since there are so many soldiers and horses in Guangling City, it shows that Zhao Yu mobilized soldiers and horses very quickly, and he has drawn all the soldiers and horses from other counties, so wouldn't the other counties be extremely empty."

It is better to postpone the attack on Guangling City, first collect other counties, and then attack Jiangdu instead, and lead Guangling City to send troops to rescue it, in Tuguangling. ”

"Hmmm! It's doable, and it's a great idea. ”

Surround the big city with a small city, eat small fish and shrimp, and fake attack Jiangdu, causing a crisis in Guangling City, Zhao Yu will panic.

Sun Ce said: "That's okay, so be it, let's hide the troops first, collect the other counties, and send Deng Dang to attack Jiangdu, I want to see how Zhao Yu reacts." ”

As Chen Duan guessed, the soldiers and horses of the other four counties were indeed drawn to Guangling City, and in the face of the arrival of Sun Ce's army, all counties opened the city to access.

After taking the four counties and controlling most of Guangling County, Sun Ce sent a general to attack Jiangdu with a feigned army, preparing to abolish the last way of life in Guangling City and completely block Zhao Yu.
