Sima Xu Shu of the General's Mansion reported the latest battle situation to the generals.

On the battlefield on the West Road, Zhang Fei, the general of Zhengnan, together with his subordinates Ban, Sima Ju, and Yu Xuan, led the Third Infantry Standing Army Corps and the Jizhou Garrison First Garrison Corps, totaling 56,000 people, and was confronting Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao has not fired a single arrow since his troops came to Yecheng, and it seems that he is sincerely willing to cooperate with us to defeat the rebels.

On the battlefield in the middle of the road, Guan Yu, the general of Zhengdong, sat in Xindu City, together with the generals Li Zhong, Mu Shun, and Sun Guan, commanded the Second Army of the Standing Infantry and the Second Army of the Jizhou Garrison, with a total of 56,000 people holding the city and containing the main force of the rebels.

There is no movement on the battlefield on the eastern road so far, and we have not yet found any signs of the rebels dividing their forces to attack Nanpi.

According to the order of the lord, we have gathered an army of 182,000 this time, preparing to completely destroy this rebel army on the battlefield of the eastern road.

At present, four generals, Li Jing, Wei Yan, Pan Zhang, and Guan Hai, led 32,000 iron cavalry reorganized from the Sixth Infantry Corps, are on standby on the front line of the Zhangshui River.

The First Cavalry Corps led by Zhao Yun, Yue Yun, and the three generals and the Jizhou Garrison Cavalry Corps, a total of 24,000 iron cavalry, were on standby near Gaocheng in Bohai County.

The three generals Zhang He, Xian Yufu, and Yan Rou led the 18,000 iron cavalry of the Third Cavalry Corps to stand by in the Wuyi and Guanjin areas of Anping State, and their iron cavalry also undertook the heavy responsibility of returning to the Xindu City at any time.

The 32,000 iron cavalry reorganized from the Fifth Infantry Corps led by four generals, Chang Yuchun, Zhang Yan, Bian Xi, and Mu Shun, had secretly crossed the Jiangshui River and lurked in the Yellow Flood Area a hundred miles away from Dongguang City.

The 18,000 elite iron cavalry of the Fourth Cavalry Corps led by the three generals Lu Bu, Wei Xu, and Cheng Lian had already rushed to the bow high of the Hejian Kingdom to stand by.

The 40,000 troops of the five generals Gao Changgong, Hao Meng, Xun Di, Li Yi, and Xian Yuyin have also entered Gonggao City, and they also bear the heavy responsibility of returning to Xindu City at any time.

Our battlefield is in Dongguang.

Dongguang is about two hundred and fifty miles away from Xindu City, and there are yellow floods and more than a dozen rivers in the middle, even if Cao Cao wants to rescue, it is too late in time.

Although the road from Dongguang to Nanpi is a flat horse and suitable for iron cavalry combat, the rebels must have taken precautions since the defeat of Pengting, and if we forcibly attack with iron cavalry, I am afraid that the losses will be great.

The terrain on the road from Panhe to Dongguang was complicated, and it was difficult for us to quickly and completely annihilate the rebels, so we chose the battlefield at the junction of the two terrains, interspersed and divided the enemy army with infantry troops, and surrounded and annihilated the enemy army with iron cavalry.

After Xu Shu finished explaining the attack strategy, Zhang He immediately asked, "If the rebels don't divide their troops, what will we do?" ”

Xu Shu stretched out his hand to the Qinghe country and said: "Regardless of whether there is a battle of Dongguang or not, the army must kill the Qinghe country before the end of August, cut off the retreat of the rebels, and surround the rebels between the Jiangshui River and the Qinghe River, and must be completely annihilated." ”

Zhang He raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "This is the reason why the lord asked us to resolutely withdraw to Xindu City?" ”

Xu Shu nodded and said, "Yes, without enough depth, we can't detour back to the rear of the rebels and complete the encirclement." ”

"There are 230,000 rebels, and even if we use two big rivers to surround them, the rebels will be cut off from food and grass, and they will inevitably break through the siege with all their might, and it is impossible for us to annihilate them all." Zhang He said without hesitation, "Unless we fight the Battle of Dongguang first, we won't be able to eat these more than 200,000 people." ”

"The battle of Dongguang will definitely be fought, as long as we have enough patience." Li Yi said with a smile, "The Battle of Ganling will definitely be fought, unless Cao Cao retreats now." As for Yuan Shao, it depends on whether he runs fast or not. ”

The generals were suddenly enthusiastic and cheered.

In mid-August, Liang Guo Suiyang.

The drought in the Central Plains is becoming more and more severe, and more and more counties are affected. It didn't rain for eight months in a row, which was very rare in the 400-year history of the Han Dynasty.

The officials and people of the stricken counties knelt on the parched earth and prayed for forgiveness and gifts, and the helpless and miserable cries were deafening, but the heavens ruthlessly abandoned them, and still hung the burning sun in the blue sky every day, as if to burn all the land to ashes, and all the rivers to dry up.

The number of victims of the disaster is gradually increasing, the activities of the Yellow Turban Army are becoming more and more frequent, and the grain and grass transported to the battlefield in Hebei are constantly being attacked by sneak attacks.

At the beginning of this month, when Cao Cao commanded his army to approach the central part of Jizhou, the hussar general Yuan Shu volunteered and led his army to the area of Liang to kill the remnants of the Yellow Turban and ensure the smooth flow of grain routes. Everywhere the army went, the Yellow Turban Army was terrified and achieved remarkable results.

As the Northern Expeditionary Army gradually penetrated into the central part of Jizhou, the demand for grain and grass was increasing, the transportation distance was getting longer and longer, and the people needed were more and more, and the danger on the road was naturally increasing.

In order to ensure the needs of the battlefield ahead, Cheng Yu led the army to Dingtao in Jiyin County, the grain and grass storage area of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and personally supervised the transportation of grain and grass.

The day after Cheng Yu left Changyi, Yuan Shu, who was more than two hundred miles away, received the news. At that time, he was in the Suiyang City of Liang Guo to escape the cool and enjoy the heat.

The reason why Yuan Shu wanted to leave Changyi was to make Cheng Yu feel a threat that he couldn't feel, and then go to Dingtao to supervise the transportation of grain and grass.

Changyi is only a temporary capital, and Dingtao is related to the safety of the Hebei battlefield.

So Yuan Shu decided that Cheng Yu would sit in Dingtao when the Hebei War was at its most intense, and he really guessed correctly.

"Okay, Cheng Zhongde has finally hit the plan." Yuan Shu jumped up excitedly, "Tell Ji Ling to let him lead the army to attack Dingtao and cut off the grain and grass for the army of the Northern Expedition." It's up to Li Yi now, if he can eat Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, and Gongsun Zan in one go, the Central Plains will be mine. ”

"My lord, I guess it's difficult." Li Ye frowned and said, "Although we surrounded Dingtao, we couldn't completely cut off the grain and grass of the Northern Expeditionary Army. The three places that provided grain and grass for the Northern Expeditionary Army were Yuan Shao's Guandong and Yuzhou, Liu Biao's Jingzhou and our Yangzhou, and Xuzhou and Qingzhou. Even if we surround Dingtao now, the grain from Xuzhou and Qingzhou is still being sent to the Jizhou battlefield, so ......"

"So Cao Aman still has enough time to withdraw to the Yellow River, right?" Yuan Shu asked with a grin, "Are you worried that he will retaliate against me when he comes back?" Join forces with Liu Bei to beat me? ”

"Does the lord believe that Li Yi will wipe out the Northern Expeditionary Army in Hebei and let the lord occupy the Central Plains?" Li Ye asked rhetorically, "Why did Li Yi detain the eldest son, Xun Zheng and Liu Ye in Jizhou?" He doesn't believe your word at all, you know? ”

"Of course I do." Yuan Shu patted Li Ye's shoulder with a smile and said proudly, "If I and Yuan Shao occupy all the prefectures and counties from Guanzhong to the Central Plains, and confront Li Yi across the river, where will he have a chance to calm the world?" Therefore, Li Yi will definitely let Cao Apu go, so that he and I can fight and break the bloodstream, so as to profit from it. And Yuan Shao thought the same thing, he also wanted me and Cao Apu to lose both in order to realize his dream of usurpation. ”

"As long as the Central Plains is in flames, Li Yi and Yuan Shao will have a chance." Yuan Shu waved his hand vigorously and said with great disdain, "But the question is, will I give them this chance?" ”

Li Ye sighed worriedly and said, "The lord thinks we have enough strength and time?" ”

"What? Are you out of faith? Yuan Shu laughed and said, "Qiao Rui, Zhang Xun and Sun Jian have already been dispatched, and now it's our turn." Ordered Chang Nu and He Yi to assemble the army, and we killed Changyi. ”

Li Ye wanted to persuade him a few more words, but Yuan Shu had already walked out in a hurry, and said with a smile as he walked: "Li Yi keeps his promise, and it will be six hundred miles as soon as he retreats, how can we disappoint him?" ”

………………

Yangzhou Wu County, Dantu.

On the ferry, hundreds of warships lined up, and nearly 10,000 heavily armed soldiers were boarding.

Surrounded by dozens of guards, Sun Jian galloped wildly.

In June, Wang Lang, the Taishou of Huiji County, surrendered to Sun Jian under the persuasion of Changshi Yuxuan. Yan Baihu resisted stubbornly and led the army to flee to Jiaozhou, but the whole army was annihilated.

In July, Sun Ben, Zhu Zhi, Zhou Yu and others defeated Liu Miao and occupied Wanling, the county governor of Danyang County.

At this point, Sun Jian occupied the three counties of Wu County, Huiji and Danyang.

At this time, Yuan Shu's secret order was sent to Jiangdong, and Sun Jian immediately secretly assembled troops in the area of Dantu and Qu'a, preparing to attack the Donghai County of Xuzhou and Langya occupied by Liu Bei.

Now, on both sides of the Yellow River, the princes from all walks of life are fighting fiercely, Sun Jian is a person who is not willing to be lonely, and he is very eager to join this big war.

In fact, if it weren't for the serious injuries he was injured back then, he Sun Jian would have been fighting fiercely on the Central Plains battlefield at this moment, not in this remote Jiangdong region.

Now, the time has finally come, and he, Sun Jian, will lead the Jiangdong army to attack Xuzhou from the sea.

When Sun Jian's army went to sea and was about to arrive in Donghai County, Yuan Shu's general Qiao Rui led his army to cross the Huai River, traveled 150 miles, and captured Xiaqiu City in Xiapi County, Xuzhou with lightning speed. After resting for a day, the army went straight to Picheng, which was ruled by the county of Pi County.

At about the same time, Zhang Xun, who was stationed in Xiao County, Peiguo, suddenly marched sixty miles east and killed Pengcheng, the county governor of Pengchengguo in Xuzhou.

Just when Zhang Xun began to attack Pengcheng, Ji Ling's army also killed Dingtao. Whether or not Dingtao can be won is directly related to whether Yuan Shu can successfully occupy the Central Plains. So Ji Ling mustered up his enthusiasm and led the army to attack, but to his surprise, the defenders in the city were very tenacious, and under the command of Cheng Yu, they used a large number of ordnance accumulated in the city to defend the city.

When Ji Ling was in a hurry and at a loss under Dingtao City, Yuan Shu swaggered into Changyi. He is the general of the hussars of this dynasty, and even Taifu Liu Pet has to go out to greet him in person, who would dare to stop him? (To be continued.) )
