Chapter 348: Plotting to seize Leping City
Zhang Yu took out the map and studied it.
"This time, we must make Yuan Shaoqi sick." Zhang Yu said with the map.
He already has a plan, anyway, just go to the hinterland of Jizhou to make trouble.
His next goal is to go directly south, and then go to the hinterland of Jizhou.
This is very dangerous, after all, Zhang Yu and they are alone.
But at this time, the military deployment in Jizhou was already very chaotic, and the army was transferred to the battle area.
Some confronted Gongsun Zhan, and the other hundreds of thousands of troops went to encircle and suppress Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, but the hinterland of Jizhou was relatively empty.
Recently, Yuan Shao was in a good mood, because he sent troops to kill "Zhang Yu" and they retreated again and again, and now they can almost drive out of Jizhou.
In Yecheng, Yuan Shao once again convened the ministers for a feast.
"Recently, there has been no peace in Jizhou, but thanks to everyone's help, there is no major trouble now." Yuan Shao said.
Yuan Shao specially held this banquet to save face.
The last time he invited the ministers, Zhang Yu suddenly entered, which made Yuan Shao very faceless.
Now Yuan Shao believes that Zhang Yu has basically been driven out of Jizhou, and now although they are still "fleeing" in Zhongshan, they are no longer in trouble.
Yuan Shao's judgment was that in the past ten days, Huang Zhong and the others had not captured a single city.
And in the continuous battle, Huang Zhong and they also lost thousands of soldiers and horses.
In this way, Yuan Shao thought that it would be a matter of time before they were driven out of Jizhou, and if they didn't flee from Jizhou quickly, they would be easily surrounded by Yan Liang and them.
"Thanks to the wisdom of the lord, that Zhang Yuxiao is a junior who can only sneak around, how can he compare with the master of the lord and the king." Guo Tu stood up and said respectfully.
Yuan Shao was humble in his mouth, and he was already smiling in his heart, he said: "Zhang Yu is not worth mentioning, before we took advantage of our war with Gongsun Zhan, and shameless sneak attack, Zhang Yu has always been shameless. ”
Speaking of Zhang Yu's shamelessness, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and felt personal pain about it.
But now Yuan Shao is in a very comfortable mood, Zhang Yu's army was chased and beaten by himself, and he had no power to fight back, so he specially called his ministers to celebrate.
After Guo Tu finished speaking, the judge also stood up and said: "Lord, that Zhang Yu is short-sighted and insignificant, now that we are thriving in Jizhou, it is a matter of time before we unify Youzhou, and Zhang Yu will not be at the mercy of the lord at that time." ”
After the trial was finished, the people below catered to each other.
Now it is true that Jizhou is thriving, Yuan Shao has a lot of money and food in his hands, and he builds weapons day and night, and can equip a large number of troops at any time.
This time, Tian Feng and the others did not dare to persuade Yuan Shao, who called Yuan Shao is happy now.
The ministers feasted, and the good news was spread frequently.
In the past few days, Yan Liang has sent back several "good news" in a row
Although the good news only eliminated Zhang Yu and hundreds of his soldiers and horses, it was also a victory, and it often passed on once a day, and even transmitted back several times a day.
In fact, it was Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun who wanted to stick to Yuan Shao's 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Otherwise, they have one person and two horses, and they don't have to fight at all, and it's no problem to run away directly.
But Zhang Yu was still in Changshan County, and Huang Zhong and they couldn't let Yuan Shao's 100,000 soldiers and horses get out.
In this way, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were led around by Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun.
Moreover, at least half of these 100,000 horses were infantry.
There is no way, although Jizhou is rich, it can't afford to raise a huge war horse.
One horse costs more than several infantrymen.
During the banquet, the monarch and the ministers were happy, and at this time Zhang Yu was already on the way south.
Before going south, Zhang Yu asked several county commanders to send official letters asking the county towns along the road to prepare grain and grass.
Although Zhang Yu and they did not enter the county, grain and grass were indispensable.
Although these counties are strange, why are there so many more soldiers and horses all of a sudden, and the direction is not right.
However, there is an official letter from the county order of Changshan County, and the place where they are located is the interior of Jizhou, so it has not aroused the suspicion of others.
Although Zhang Yu was low-key all the way, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses walked on the road in broad daylight without any concealment.
A few days later, Zhang Yu and his soldiers passed through three county towns, and on the way, Zhang Yu and their soldiers gradually became equipped.
Most of these equipment were the equipment that Zhang Yu and the others had captured from the Jizhou army before, and they were hidden in the baggage of the army, and they were not equipped before.
Along the way, Zhang Yu also asked those counties for some equipment.
Although Zhang Yu can be exchanged for points, the exchange is obviously different from the equipment in Jizhou.
"There are still 8,000 sets of equipment left, and it seems that we have to find another way." Zhang Yu solved more than 10,000 sets of equipment, and there was no way to leave it empty.
After a few more days, Zhang Yu and the others arrived in the central part of Leping County.
After entering Leping County, Zhang Yu and the others did not pass through the county seat, and directly bypassed it far away.
"Lord, there are several counties along the road, why don't you go in and loot it." On the way, Dian Wei said.
Zhang Yu shook his head and said: "If you want to do it, you can do it once, as soon as we do it, we will be exposed immediately, and then it will be difficult to swagger like this." ”
Zhang Yu took the soldiers and horses to the direction of Leping City, which is the seat of Leping County.
If you want to do it, you have to make it bigger, and you will be knocked down at once.
Two days later, Zhang Yu and the others arrived outside Leping City.
"Please help spread the word to Lord Taishou, I will pass through here and need food and grass supplies." Zhang Yu sent a nimble soldier to the city gate and shouted.
At this time, the city gate was not closed, if Zhang Yu and the others were to sneak attack, they could completely break through, but Zhang Yu still wanted to take the risk to see if he could deceive the city.
The other party did not suspect it, and immediately went to report after listening to the soldier's words.
There is no way to compare the county guard with the county order, which can make Yuan Shao take a fancy to it, and the one who becomes the taishou is definitely Yuan Shao's feudal official, so he doesn't need to look at Zhang Yu's face at all, but will show Zhang Yu's face.
Now there are only a few Taishou under Yuan Shao, and they can definitely be listed in Yuan Shao.
Therefore, it is impossible for this Leping County to be like the county order.
When the soldiers reported it to Taishou, Taishou only felt strange, but he didn't suspect it, and sent a few officials to receive him.
Zhang Yu had no intention of entering the city, and directly stationed ten miles away from the city.
"Lord, let's fight directly, it won't take half a day, we will definitely fight down." Dian Wei said.
"It's okay, our plan shouldn't have been recognized, and if it succeeds, there will be huge benefits." Zhang Yu said.
A strong attack means that the enemy will know about their existence earlier, and if they can be taken quietly, then the benefits will naturally not be said.
Na Taishou sent a few people to see Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu identified himself, and also took out a few official letters issued by the county order.
Without being suspected, Zhang Yu was half relieved, and then it was up to him to operate.
On the same day, Leping City sent a batch of grain to Zhang Yu and them.
In Dian Wei's words, it is to eat the enemy, use the enemy, and in the future, he will fight the enemy in turn.
Zhang Yu and the others temporarily stationed outside the city.
"Evil, the other party did not suspect us, and will quietly arrange people to enter the city tomorrow." In the evening, Zhang Yu called Dian Wei and said.
