Chapter 293: Attacking Yanzhou
Tang Xiu broke through the siege, which made Cao Cao and his subordinates Wenwu worried.
Why don't they understand, Tang Xiu is moving rescue soldiers?
Only Guo Jia's face changed greatly, and he said, "It's not good!" Tang Xiu broke through this time, and the target was only Yanzhou! ”
Cao Cao and his subordinate Wenwu also changed their faces one by one, and Yanzhou was their base camp.
The foundation and family are all in Yanzhou!
Now that Cao Cao's army of more than 200,000 is outside, and the garrison of Yanzhou is empty, once Tang Xiu leads the army to Yanzhou, everything will be over! Even if they captured Xuzhou City, it didn't help!
Not to mention that in Xuzhou City, there are more than 30,000 reinforcements from Tang Xiu, with a total of 50,000 or 60,000 troops, which can not be captured in a short time.
Cao Cao asked Wen Wu when he arrived: "Who led the troops to return to Yanzhou?" ”
Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen, and the generals surnamed Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Hui, Xiahou and other generals glanced at each other.
In the end, the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan stood up and said in unison: "The last general is willing to go!" ”
Cao Cao nodded secretly, the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were the two strongest generals under his command, and they were quite capable of leading the army.
When you can personally lead the army all the way, return to help, and guard Yanzhou!
And the strongest general under Cao Cao's command, in fact, there is another person, that is Xu Chu, who led hundreds of villagers to vote, and is a super fierce general who does not lose to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others.
It's just that Xu Chu lacks the ability to lead the troops, and he is just the commander of Cao Cao's personal guards.
At the moment, Cao Cao ordered the two brothers, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, to lead an army of 50,000 to return to Yanzhou, and only need to hold the city tightly, and not fight with Tang Xiuye.
Because once Tang Xiu transferred troops, he was not the elite of Xiliang, but one of the strongest cavalry in the world.
There is also Tang Xiu, a peerless god general, if the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan fight with Tang Xiu, they are afraid of defeat!
Indeed, as Guo Jia expected, Tang Xiu originally planned to do so, and after breaking through, he transferred troops to raid Cao Cao's lair.
He went straight to the Tiger Prison Pass, and transferred 20,000 Xiliang Iron Riders from Hua Xiong, who was guarding the Tiger Prison Pass.
Tiger Prison Pass was originally guarded by 50,000 Xiliang troops, which was a gateway to Luoyang City, and now there are 20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen, but it is harmless. After all, there is no war in today's Tiger Prison.
After Tang Xiu transferred his troops, he thought about it and felt that Cao Cao was only afraid that he had guessed his intentions and would divide his troops to defend Yanzhou. If the reinforcements can't hold on, he won't have a good way.
After all, 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry are good at fighting outside, and they are not good at attacking cities.
After thinking about it, Tang Xiu ordered Huaxiong to send a message to Zhang Liao, ordering him to lead 50,000 troops and state troops to attack Yanzhou together.
This time, he is drawing his salary from the bottom of the kettle, Luoyang City is already empty, and he can only persuade Wang Yun, Huang Wan, Yang Biao and other courtiers, and the 20,000 army composed of dead soldiers, doormen, and servants to defend it.
And there are only 30,000 troops left in the Tiger Prison Pass, and Luoyang City is almost undefended.
But there is no way, in order to save Xuzhou's urgency, attack Yanzhou, this is the only way.
Tang Xiu has also calculated clearly, and now Luoyang City is safe.
To the west of Luoyang City, there is Chang'an's Niu Fu army, with Zhang Xiu and Liu Guanzhang brothers, as well as Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and other generals, leading an army of 110,000 to attack.
Niu Fu in the West naturally did not have the kung fu to covet Luoyang City.
And due north, Bingzhou, is in the midst of chaos and foreign chaos, and has no time and no ability to covet Luoyang City.
The princes of Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Ge in the northeast are the biggest hidden dangers.
Because whether it is Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zhan, at this moment, Xingbing can take Luoyang City and Tiger Prison Pass!
But in this biggest hidden danger, Tang Xiu has a fellow gamer, and he has already taken refuge in his "Liu Ge" as an internal response.
You can not only pass the message through the game system at any time, but also let Liu Ge use it as a help to temporarily resist Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zhan.
Tang Xiu thought that whether Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, Liu Ge and others were fighting separately, or whether they wanted to raise troops together to attack Luoyang City, they could have no worries.
Liu Ge's internal response finally played a role, and it was a great role, directly containing Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and other two great princes.
And Yanzhou, due east, was Cao Cao's base camp and Tang Xiu's destination this time.
As for the princes in the south, southeast, and southwest, they are worry-free.
Liu Biao of Jingzhou in the south, Liu Zhang of Yizhou in the southwest, and Zhang Lu of Hanzhong in the southwest have no intention of dominating the world, and they have no intention of marching against Luoyang City.
It was the previous battle of the princes against Dong Zhuo, and the princes of these three roads were all cold-eyed bystanders, looking like they had nothing to do with themselves.
And the princes of Yuan Shu and Sun Jian in the southeast are jealous of each other, and they have the meaning of grabbing territory. The two of them were busy developing, and they didn't have the heart to attack Luoyang City at this time.
It is precisely because of this that Tang Xiu dared to transfer 50,000 troops in Luoyang City and 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry in Tiger Prison Pass, causing Luoyang City and Tiger Prison Pass to be empty and take a risk.
At that moment, Tang Xiuqin led 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry and 50,000 Bingzhou troops to converge in Shandong and kill directly to Yanzhou.
It's a head-on battle, and there's no strategy available.
The two brothers, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, have led 50,000 Qingzhou soldiers to return to help and defend various cities.
Tang Xiu led the army and attacked the city all the way.
The Qingzhou soldiers under Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan are newly built, and in terms of combat power and equipment, they are much worse than the 50,000 Bingzhou elites under Tang Xiu who are responsible for attacking the city.
Another 20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen blocked the connection between the various cities.
Tang Xiu's attack on Yanzhou this time can be said to be very smooth, attacking the city all the way and occupying many cities.
That's it!
I believe that the battle report has reached Cao Cao's hands.
And Cao Cao's place, after being taken away by the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, 50,000 soldiers and horses, there are still 120,000 Qingzhou soldiers, who are storming Xuzhou City.
He also knew that this was a time war with Tang Xiu, and who else could capture the opponent's territory first.
In the city of Xuzhou, led by Tai Shi Ci and Guan Hai, and Gao Shun led 800 camps to assist, 120,000 Qingzhou soldiers attacked the city day and night.
There were many casualties on both sides.
The fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses in Xuzhou City have been lost in half.
And Cao Cao even lost the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers.
But for one or two hundred thousand Qingzhou soldiers, it is harmless, and if it goes on like this, it is not far from conquering Xuzhou City.
But there was a misfortune reported by Pegasus: "Yanzhou is lost, Tang Xiu is occupied by the project all the way, and Puyang is followed." There are three places in Juancheng, Dong'e and Fan County, which are guarded by the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan. ”
Cao Cao was shocked, the nest was about to be blown up!
